Objective To assess the clinical value of multimodal ultrasound score for assessment of endometrial receptivity among patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and to provide guidance for improving pregnancy outcomes among PCOS patients. Methods A total of 48 PCOS patients admitted to Jiangning Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University between January and December 2023 were enrolled as the case group, while 50 healthy women of childbearing age received ovulation monitoring at the same hospital during the same period served as the control group. Subjects received two-dimensional grayscale ultrasound during the implantation window (19 to 23 days of the menstrual cycle) for measurement of endometrial thickness, Gonen classification, and endometrial peristalsis. Two-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound was used for assessment of endometrial blood flow and three-dimensional ultrasound was used for assessment of endometrial volume and vascularization flow index (VFI). The endometrium multimodal ultrasound scores were estimated, and various parameters were compared between the two groups. The diagnostic performance of these parameters for PCOS was evaluated with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results The age of subjects in the case group ranged from 20 to 38 years, with a mean age of (28.20 ± 2.82) years, and their body mass index (BMI) ranged from 21.23 to 29.11 kg/m², with a mean BMI of (26.25 ± 1.60) kg/m². The age of subjects in the control group ranged from 22 to 38 years, with a mean age of (28.10 ± 1.99) years, and their BMI ranged from 21.33 to 29.03 kg/m², with a mean BMI of (26.10 ± 1.78) kg/m². There were no significant differences between the case and control groups in terms of mean age, BMI, estradiol, and testosterone (t = 0.218, 0.422, 0.010, and 0.221; all P > 0.05). The endometrial thickness, endometrial volume, and VFI were significantly higher in the control group than in the case group (t = 4.838, 4.978, and 7.115; all P < 0.05). There were significant differences between the two groups in terms of endometrial classification, endometrial peristalsis pattern, and endometrial and sub-endometrial blood flow (Z = −4.136, −4.048, and −3.884; all P < 0.05). The scores of endometrial classification, endometrial peristalsis, endometrial and sub-endometrial blood flow, endometrial volume, VFI, and multimodal ultrasound were significantly lower in the case group than in the control group (t = 4.539, 4.449, 4.205, 3.209, 5.206, and 4.495; all P < 0.05). No significant difference was detected in the endometrial thickness score between the two groups (t = -0.149, P = 0.882). The areas under the ROC curves for endometrial thickness, endometrial volume, VFI, and multimodal ultrasound scores in diagnosis of PCOS were 0.753, 0.747, 0.809, and 0.858, respectively. Conclusion Multimodal ultrasound score provides a comprehensive assessment of the endometrium, and is effective in the assessment of endometrial receptivity, which may provide a reference for guiding pregnancy planning in PCOS patients.

Consumptive thirst is widely discussed in Huangdi Neijing and it is classified as a"strange disease"in Suwen·Strange Diseases Treatise,which reflects the intractable nature of consumptive thirst.This paper explores and analyzes consumptive thirst based on the core concept in Huangdi Neijing.First,this paper approaches the subject through the use of image thinking method from Huangdi Neijing,recognizing that consumptive thirst can lead to changes in the internal climate of the human body.Then,guided by the theories of essence and qi,yin and yang,and the five elements in Huangdi Neijing,it deconstructs and analyzes the causes of these changes and the laws of qi transformation.It points out that the changing climate of consumptive thirst is characterized by"heat symptoms".The main cause of"heat symptoms"is spleen deficiency and excessive dampness,and its qi transformation law is the heat transformation of Shaoyin.The intractable nature of consumptive thirst is mainly reflected in the uncontrolled"heat symptoms"caused by the imbalance of the five elements.Based on the understanding of the heat symptoms of consumptive thirst,this paper proposes a treatment strategy for preventing the disease by resolving dampness and regulating the spleen,harmonizing kidney qi to prevent progression,and balancing yin and yang to treat chronic and recalcitrant conditions.The aim is to provide a reference for optimizing the treatment of consumptive thirst.

Objective To investigate the effect of Yam gruel on postoperative incision healing in patients with Type Ⅱ diabetes and complicated with colorectal cancer,hence to provide a better diet plan for postoperative incision healing.Methods A convenience sampling method was used to select 92 patients with Type Ⅱ diabetes who were complicated with colorectal cancer and underwent surgery of laparoscopic radical resection for colorectal cancer in a general hospital in Fujian province.IBM SPSS 25.0 software was used to randomly divide the patients into control group and trial group,with 46 patients per group.Conventional postoperative treatment and care was offered to the patients in control group,while patients in the trial group,after anal exhaust,consumed Yam gruel made from Chinese Yam along with the remaining breakfast after deducting an 84 kcal of energy produced by the gruel for 3 weeks.The two groups were compared in terms of the post-intervention healing time,healing grade,incidence of poor incision healing,and changes in blood glucose before intervention,at 1 week and 3 weeks post-intervention.Results Forty-four patients completed the trial in the trial group,with two left at the third week of intervention.A total of 45 patients completed the study in the control group,with one dropped out of the follow-up after 3 weeks of intervention.After intervention,the incision healing time in the trial group was significantly shorter than that of the control group(P<0.05).Additionally,the healing grade was better(P<0.05),and the incidence of incision infections was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).Repeated measures ANOVA revealed that there were statistically significances in both groups in either main effects on fasting blood glucose and blood glucose at 2 hours after breakfast(all P<0.001).Particularly,at Week 1 and Week 3 post-intervention,the trial group showed both lower fasting blood glucose and blood glucose at 2 hours after breakfast compared with those in the control group(both P<0.01).Conclusion Yam gruel can reduce the time for incision healing,improve the quality of incision healing and regulate blood sugar.

Objective To investigate the incidence and influencing factors of aggressive behavior in adolescent inpatients with mental disorders.Methods A total of 372 patients with mental disorders admitted to the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from January to December 2022 were selected as research subjects.The occurrence of aggressive behavior and its influencing factors were analyzed.Results Among the 372 patients,38(10.2％)cases had aggressive behavior during hospitalization.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression results showed that the history of aggressive behavior,only child,and high irritation factor scores were the risk factors of aggressive behavior in hospitalized adolescents with mental disorders(P＜0.05).Mild,outgoing,insecure and isolated personalities before the onset were protective factors of aggressive behavior in hospitalized adolescents with mental disorders(P＜0.05).Conclusion Adolescent inpatients with mental disorders are likely to have aggressive behavior.Those who have aggressive behavior before,are the only child in their family and get a high score of irritant factors need more attention.Corresponding nursing interventions should be taken in time through nursing assessment to reduce the occurrence of aggressive behavior.

ObjectiveTo explore the syndrome elements and evolving patterns of patients with hepatitis B virus-related acute on chronic liver failure （HBV-ACLF） at different stages. MethodsClinical information of 1,058 hospitalized HBV-ACLF patients， including 618 in the early stage， 355 in the middle stage， and 85 in the late stage， were collected from 18 clinical centers across 12 regions nationwide from January 1， 2012 to February 28， 2015. The “Hepatitis B-related Chronic and Acute Liver Failure Chinese Medicine Clinical Questionnaire” were designed to investigate the basic information of the patients， like the four diagnostic information （including symptoms， tongue， pulse） of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， and to count the frequency of the appearance of the four diagnostic information. Factor analysis and cluster analysis were employed to determine and statistically analyze the syndrome elements and patterns of HBV-ACLF patients at different stages. ResultsThere were 76 four diagnostic information from 1058 HBV-ACLF patients， and 53 four diagnostic information with a frequency of occurrence ≥ 5% were used as factor analysis entries， including 36 symptom information， 12 tongue information， and 5 pulse information. Four types of TCM patterns were identified in HBV-ACLF， which were liver-gallbladder damp-heat pattern， qi deficiency and blood stasis pattern， liver-kidney yin deficiency pattern， and spleen-kidney yang-deficiency pattern. In the early stage， heat （39.4%， 359/912） and dampness （27.5%， 251/912） were most common， and the pattern of the disease was dominated by liver-gallbladder damp-heat pattern （74.6%， 461/618）； in the middle stage， dampness （30.2%， 187/619） and blood stasis （20.7%， 128/619） were most common， and the patterns of the disease were dominated by liver-gallbladder damp-heat pattern （53.2%， 189/355）， and qi deficiency and blood stasis pattern （27.6%， 98/355）； and in the late stage， the pattern of the disease was dominated by qi deficiency （26.3%， 40/152） and yin deficiency （20.4%， 31/152）， and the patterns were dominated by qi deficiency and blood stasis pattern （36.5%， 31/85）， and liver-gallbladder damp-heat pattern （25.9%， 22/85）. ConclusionThere are significant differences in the distribution of syndrome elements and patterns at different stages of HBV-ACLF， presenting an overall trend of evolving patterns as "from excess to deficiency， transforming from excess to deficiency"， which is damp-heat → blood stasis → qi-blood yin-yang deficiency.

Objective By comparing with arthroscopic rotator cuff repair alone,to explore the efficacy and difference of leukocyte poor platelet-rich plasma(LP-PRP)and leukocyte rich platelet-rich plasma(LR-PRP)in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.Methods Sixty patients with total rotator cuff tear accompanied by arthroscopic rotator cuff repair admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of North China University of Science and Technology from October 2021 to September 2022 were included and randomly divided into control group(n=20),LP-PRP group(n=20)and LR-PRP group(n=20).The control group only received arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.The LP-PRP group was injected with leukocyte poor platelet-rich plasma(LP-PRP)into the sutured torn tendon after the same operation,and the LR-PRP group was injected with leukocyte rich platelet-rich plasma(LR-PRP)into the sutured torn tendon after the same operation.The postoperative rehabilitation training plan of the three groups was the same,and the postoperative follow-up and evaluation were conducted for 1 year.It included pain score(VAS score),shoulder joint function score(CMS,UCLA,ASES score),retear rate and related complications.Results All patients were followed up.(1)VAS score:Compared with the LR-PRP group and the control group,the results were statistically significant only at 1,3 and 6 weeks after surgery(P<0.05);There was no statistical significance between the LR-PRP group and the control group at 1 week,3 weeks,6 weeks,3 months,6 months and 12 months after surgery(P>0.05).(2)CMS,UCLA and ASES scores:There were no significant differences between the LP-PRP group and the LR-PRP group at 3 months,6 months and 12 months after surgery(P>0.05);Compared with LP-PRP group and LR-PRP group,there were significant differences in each follow-up time point of control group(P<0.05).(3)Retear rate:In the LP-PRP group,there was 1 retear in the LR-PRP group(tear rate 5%),and 3 in the control group(tear rate 15%).There was no statistically significant difference between the three groups(P>0.05).(4)There were no postoperative complications in 60 patients.Conclusions Compared with arthroscopic rotator cuff repair alone,although the application of LP-PRP and LR-PRP could not reduce the rate of retear,it could significantly improve the shoulder joint function of patients,and LP-PRP could significantly reduce the pain of patients with rotator cuff injury in the early postoperative period(within 6 weeks),with no postoperative complications,and the short-term clinical results of patients were satisfactory.
