Objective To explore the impact of wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring on heart-focused anxiety in patients with tachyarrhythmias. Methods A cross-sectional study design was conducted. 305 patients with tachyarrhythmias who attended the department of cardiology of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University in Shanghai from July 2025 to December 2025 were enrolled as the research subjects, and clinical data of patients were collected. Univariate analysis and multiple stepwise regression analysis were used to analyze the impact of wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring on patients’ heart-focused anxiety. Results The mean score of heart-focused anxiety in the 305 patients with tachyarrhythmias was 33.16±9.70. Among them, 104(34.10%) patients used wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring. The results of univariate analysis and multiple stepwise regression showed that the use of wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring was an influencing factor for heart-focused anxiety (P<0.05), and the patients who used wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring had a significantly lower level of heart-focused anxiety (P<0.05). Conclusions The use of wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring is associated with a lower level of heart-focused anxiety in patients with tachyarrhythmias. Medical staff can guide patients to rationally use wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring on the basis of evaluating their needs and device operation capabilities.

This study was aimed at establishing a method of ultra-fast quantitative PCR for Brucella detection.We used an exogenous recombinant plasmid as the internal reference and targeted the T4SS secretion system,an important Brucella viru-lence factor,to design specific primers and probes.The sensitivity,specificity,and repeatability of this method were evaluated,and a standard curve was constructed.The coincidence rate of detection findings with this method versus quantitative PCR was determined.This method markedly decreased the detection time to only 10 minutes.The standard curve demonstrated a good linear relationship(Y=-3.410 7x+38.357,R2=0.998 5)with a low minimum detection limit of 10 copies/μL.The method exhibited good specificity and did not specifically amplify several common clinical bacteria other than Brucella.The de-tection of three concentrations of positive plasmids yielded coefficients of variation(CVs)of 0.20%to 0.91%,thus demonstra-ting the method's excellent repeatability.Furthermore,140 clinical samples were analyzed concurrently with the fluorescence PCR method,which yielded a 100%compliance rate and consistent results.Our findings indicated that the Brucella ultra-fast quantitative PCR was ultrafast;had high sensitivity,high specificity,and good specificity;and can be used for the clinical de-tection of Brucella and emergency investigation of epidemics.Therefore,this method is valuable for the early diagnosis of Bru-cella.

Objective:To investigate the current status of psychosocial adaptation in young and middle-aged patients after colorectal cancer surgery and to explore its influencing factors, providing a basis for the development of targeted interventions.Methods:A total of 200 postoperative young and middle-aged colorectal cancer patients undergoing follow-up at the outpatient department of Shanxi Cancer Hospital from June 2023 to March 2024 were selected by convenience sampling. Data were collected using a general demographic questionnaire, the Self-Report Psychosocial Adjustment to Illness Scale (PAIS-SR), the Family APGAR Index Questionnaire, and the Simplified Ways of Coping Questionnaire (SWCQ). Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to identify factors influencing psychosocial adaptation.Results:A total of 200 questionnaires were distributed, and 191 valid responses were collected, yielding a valid response rate of 95.5%. The total PAIS-SR score of participants was (57.91±23.45). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that education level, self-perceived economic status, employment status, presence of a stoma, time since surgery, family care, and positive coping style were statistically significant influencing factors ( P<0.05), explaining 46.4% of the variance in psychosocial adaptation. Conclusions:Healthcare providers should pay particular attention to patients with lower educational levels, poor self-perceived economic conditions, unemployment, a stoma, and shorter postoperative duration. Enhancing family care—starting with patient caregivers—and encouraging the use of positive psychological interventions to foster active coping strategies may help improve psychosocial adaptation in young and middle-aged colorectal cancer patients.

Phakic intraocular lens implantation has become one of the important means of correcting refractive errors today. Among them,the implantable collamer lens(ICL)is favored for its wide range of correction, excellent optical quality, and high safety, but the risks of postoperative complications such as glaucoma and anterior subcapsular opacification still exist. Vault is an important indicator for evaluating the safety after ICL implantation, and its ideal state is crucial for preventing complications. Studies have shown that iris morphology has a significant impact on vault. In order to further optimize surgical outcomes and improve surgical safety, this review comprehensively reviews the research progress of iris-related parameters in ICL implantation and discusses the importance of various parameters in preoperative evaluation and postoperative follow-up.
