Objective Based on the intervention map to develop a comprehensive nutrition education program for pancreaticoduodenectomy patients and to explore the effect of its clinical application,aiming at providing references for clinical nursing practice.Methods A convenience sampling method was used to select 76 patients who were to undergo pancreaticoduodenectomy in the department of hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery of a tertiary hospital in Anhui Province as the study subjects.The 38 patients admitted from October 2021 to September 2022 were in a control group,and the 38 patients admitted from October 2022 to July 2023 were in an experimental group.The experimental group received the comprehensive nutritional education programme constructed in this study,and the control group used conventional nutrition health education measures,and the length of intervention for both groups was from pre-hospitalization to discharge for 6 months.Nutrition-related indicators,postoperative complications,hospitalisation time,hospitalisation costs and satisfaction were compared between the 2 groups.Results A total of 64 patients completed this study,with 33 in the experimental group and 31 in the control group.Repeated measurement analysis of variance showed that the interaction effects of BMI,total serum protein and serum preprotein were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The incidence of complications,hospitalization days and hospitalization costs of the experimental group were lower than those of the control group(P＜0.05).The scores of nutrition education-related satisfaction in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group(P＜0.001).Conclusion A comprehensive nutritional education program based on intervention map can improve the nutritional status of pancreaticoduodenectomy patients to a certain extent,reduce the occurrence of complications,and promote patients'recovery.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of fetuses with HNF1B gene variants. Methods:Fifty-two fetuses with HNF1B gene variants diagnosed by chromosomal copy number variation sequencing and/or whole exome sequencing at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to June 2024 were retrospectively enrolled in this study, including 47 cases of 17q12 microdeletion and five cases of HNF1B point mutations. Prenatal ultrasound features, pregnancy outcomes, and postnatal manifestations were summarized and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results:The prenatal ultrasound features of the 52 fetuses included enhanced renal parenchymal echo in 43 cases (82.7%), renal cysts in 15 cases (28.8%), enlarged kidney volume in 14 cases (26.9%), and pyelectasis in 13 cases (25.0%). Parental verification was completed for 35 cases, with 71.4% (25/35) being de novo mutations and 28.6% (10/35) inherited from either parent. Apart from eight cases with unknown pregnancy outcome (six cases were lost to follow-up, two cases refused to be followed up), the other 44 cases were successfully followed up, among which 68.2% (30/44) terminated the pregnancies and 31.8% (14/44) continued, resulting in live births. Prenatal ultrasound indicated renal abnormalities in all 14 live births, while postnatal follow-up showed seven cases with normal kidneys, one with reduced bilateral renal cysts, one with alleviated bilateral pyelectasis, four with unimproved renal structural abnormalities, and one who did not undergo a re-examination. Conclusion:The rate of renal abnormalities diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound in fetuses with HNF1B gene variants is high, and most of the pregnancies are terminated, although the renal sturctural abnormalities may improve after birth.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and genetic etiology of fetal Dandy-Walker spectrum (DWS) anomalies.Methods:This retrospective cohort study analyzed 28 fetuses with ultrasonographically confirmed DWS (ten classic Dandy-Walker malformations and 18 Dandy-Walker variants) at the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhengzhou University from January 2019 to June 2024. All cases underwent systematic ultrasonographic evaluation. Genetic analyses included chromosomal karyotyping alone ( n=4) or combined with copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) ( n=10). Descriptive statistics and Chi-square tests (or Fisher's exact test) with Bonferroni correction were applied. Results:(1) Among 28 fetuses, seven (25.0%) had isolated DWS and 21 (75.0%) non-isolated DWS. Central nervous system anomalies were most common (53.6%, 15/28). (2) Karyotyping identified abnormalities in four cases (4/14), including two triploidies, one case of mosaicism for a derivative chromosome der(1;10), and one 17p deletion. CNV-seq detected anomalies in six cases (25.0%, 6/24), four of which were missed by karyotyping: 3q23 deletion (encompassing ZIC1/ ZIC4), 13q11 duplication, and other critical variants. (3) Combined testing yielded a higher detection rate (28.6%, 8/28) than karyotyping alone (4/14, χ2=4.62, P=0.032) or CNV-seq alone (25.0%, 6/24, χ2=4.83, P=0.028) ( P=0.048 and 0.044 after Bonferroni correction). Conclusions:DWS demonstrates significant genetic heterogeneity, primarily involving chromosomal numerical anomalies (e.g., triploidy) and copy number variations (e.g., 3q23 deletion). Combined karyotyping and CNV-seq improves detection rates of genetic abnormalities.

Objective:To identify latent profile types of self-acceptance among newly diagnosed young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to recruit 162 patients with T2DM who visited the Department of Endocrinology at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between March 2023 and August 2024. A general information questionnaire was used to collect demographic and clinical data. The Acceptance and Action Diabetes Questionnaire (AADQ), Type 2 Diabetes Stigma Assessment Scale (DSAS-2), Diabetes Knowledge Test 2 (DKT2), and e-Health Literacy Scale (eHEALS) were used to assess self-acceptance, diabetes-related stigma, diabetes knowledge, and electronic health literacy, respectively. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was performed to identify categories of self-acceptance based on AADQ scores. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to examine the influencing factors of self-acceptance profiles in young and middle-aged patients with T2DM. A total of 162 questionnaires were distributed, and 157 valid responses were collected, with an effective response rate of 96.91% (157/162) .Results:The mean AADQ score of the 157 patients was (46.64±10.34), ranging from 20 to 63, with a mean item score of (4.24±1.16). Three latent profile categories of self-acceptance were identified: the "high avoidance-low self-acceptance group" (28.66%, 45/157), the "moderate self-acceptance group" (47.13%, 74/157), and the "low avoidance-high self-acceptance group" (24.20%, 38/157). Logistic regression analysis showed that age, body mass index (BMI), diabetes-related stigma, diabetes knowledge, and electronic health literacy were significant influencing factors of self-acceptance profiles in young and middle-aged patients with T2DM ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The level of self-acceptance in newly diagnosed young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus remains suboptimal. Particular attention should be paid to patients who are younger, have a BMI below 24.0 kg/m 2, experience high levels of diabetes-related stigma, and have low levels of diabetes knowledge and electronic health literacy. Targeted education and management should be implemented based on patient characteristics.

Objective:To explore the feature of FOS expression in oxytocin-and vasopressin-positive neurons in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus(PVN)under different status of diabetes mellitus(DM).Methods:Intraperito-neal injection of vehicle or STZ in mice was conducted to establish control or diabetes model.Mechanical sensitivity was evaluated by von Frey filament tests to distinguish diabetic neuropathic pain(DNP)from without-pain group(DWP).The expression of FOS,oxytocin(OXT)-and vasopressin(VP)-positive neurons,as well as their double labeling was detected by immunohistochemical and immunofluorescent staining.Cell counting and comparison were made in groups.Results:FOS expression was easily detected in the PVN in the three groups(Control group,DNP group and DWP group)at 7 days,while that in DWP and DNP groups at 28 days was hardly detectable,with the number being signifi-cantly different from the 7 days group(P＜0.05 or 0.001).Likewise,compared with the control group,immunofluo-rescent signals for VP and OXT staining in the DNP and DWP groups also showed a trend of weakening as the modeling time increased(P＜0.05).The cell counting after double staining for VP or OXT with FOS showed that,in the DWP group at 7 days,the number of VP and FOS double-labeled neurons was 74.33±22.10,accounting for(56.64± 7.52)％of VP-positive cells,whereas the double labeling rate for OXT and FOS was only(10.44±3.14)％.In the DNP group at 7 days,the number of OXT and FOS double-labeled neurons was 51.00±31.80,accounting for(18.50 ±9.51)％of OXT-positive neurons,whereas the double labeling rate for VP and FOS was only(9.34±3.27)％.In contrast to these changes in 7 days group,the expression of FOS decreased sharply in the group of 28 days,thereby al-most no double-labeled neurons.Conclusion:The plasticity changes of oxytocin-and vasopressin-positive neurons in the PVN are different depending on the status of pain and non-pain,and the stage of disease progression.Understanding the changes is of great significance for unravelling the neural mechanism of diabetes and its complications.

Photon Counting Detector(PCD)is a device used to detect X-ray photons,which can directly convert the energy of photons into electrical signals to achieve photon counting and measurement.PCD-based energy spectrum computed tomography(PCD-CT)technology can provide additional energy spectral imaging information,and improve imaging quality while reducing radiation dose.Compared with energy integrating detectors(EID),PCD has advantages of high energy conversion efficiency,good imaging quality,exquisite structural design,and wide application range.It has broad application prospects in ultra-low-dose CT,specific disease diagnosis,and industrial inspection.The application of PCD-CT in spectral CT imaging was reviewed to provide a useful reference for its application in clinical medical diagnosis and industrial applications.
