OBJECTIVE: To investigate the current status of clinical genetics specialization development and the diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities for hereditary diseases across medical institutions in Shanghai, and to assess the necessity and feasibility of establishing training bases for clinical genetics specialists. METHODS: By employing a cross-sectional survey design, the Clinical Genetics Committee of Shanghai Medical Association has conducted questionnaire surveys from March to April 2025 across 54 healthcare institutions in Shanghai (including 33 tertiary hospitals and 21 secondary hospitals). The survey involved administrative departments and medical personnel from 15 clinical specialties. The survey has covered current genetic disease diagnosis and treatment practices, relevant and specialised disease types, genetic department establishment, testing capabilities, personnel teams, and training requirements. RESULTS: The results revealed that 78.0% of clinical departments surveyed had treated patients with hereditary disorders. Shanghai possesses diagnostic and therapeutic expertise for over 95% of hereditary diseases listed in its rare disease catalogue, reflecting both the practical clinical demand for such conditions and the city's overall diagnostic and therapeutic strengths in this field. Nevertheless, significant disparities exist in the development of genetics departments across different tiers of healthcare institutions. Resources for genetic testing capabilities (including molecular, cellular, and biochemical testing) are also unevenly distributed across different tiers of hospitals. The survey further revealed that only 26.0% of departments believe that their current physician structure fully meets the diagnostic and treatment demands. Over 90% of departments consider standard training for clinical genetic specialists necessary, with 74.0% expressing willingness to participate in establishing training bases. Based on above findings and thorough deliberation, the Clinical Genetics Committee of the Shanghai Medical Association proposes advancing specialist training and discipline development through establishing a standard training system. The committee has drafted a three-year training protocol featuring a "joint training"-centered model, recommending a pilot-first, dynamically optimized strategy for steadily advancing training base development. CONCLUSION Shanghai faces substantial demand for genetic disease diagnosis and treatment, yet exhibits shortcomings in clinical genetics specialization development, resource allocation, and talent pipeline cultivation. To establish a standard training system holds significant practical importance and is underpinned by a broad demand.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of low fall alertness in elderly inpatients,construct a risk prediction model and validate it,providing a reference for clinical medical staff to identify elderly inpatients with low fall alertness in the early stage.Methods:A total of 605 elderly inpatients treated in Yijishan Hospital affiliated to Wannan Medical College from Oct 2023 to Mar 2024 were enrolled and randomly divided into the training group(n=423)and validation group(n=182)at a ratio of 7∶3.The patients were evaluated using a general information questionnaire,the Social Frailty Screening Tool(HALFT),the Tilburg Frailty Indicator(TFI),and the Self-Awareness of Falls in Elderly scale(SAFE).Multivariate logistic analysis was used to determine the influencing factors of low fall alertness in elderly inpatients.RStudio was used to construct a risk prediction model of low fall alertness.The discrimination,calibration,and clinical net benefit of the model were verified using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,calibration plots,and decision curve analysis(DCA).Results:Multivariate logistic analysis showed that the history of falls,monthly income,previous physical activity time,social frailty score and TFI score were independent risk factors for low fall alertness in elderly inpatients.The Hosmer-Lemeshow χ2 test showed that χ2=8.863,P=0.354,indicating good calibration of the prediction model.The area under the ROC curve of the training group and the validation group were 0.860(95%CI:0.815-0.904)and 0.937(95%CI:0.888-0.986),respectively,and the maximum Youden indices of the model was 0.576 and 0.788,respectively,indicating good discrimination of the model.The DCA decision curve showed that the model had good clinical effectiveness.Conclusion:The constructed model has a good prediction effect and can help clinical medical staff quickly and effectively screen out elderly inpatients at risk of low fall alertness.

Objective:To explore the association between oral health status, the lower respiratory tract microbiome, and the frequent acute exacerbation phenotype in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods:This cross-sectional study enrolled 39 patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) hospitalized in the Department of Respiratory Medicine, Henan Provincial People′s Hospital between March 2021 and December 2022. Based on the number of hospitalization episodes for acute exacerbation in the past year, patients were divided into a frequent exacerbator group (≥2 times, n=28) and a non-frequent exacerbator group (<2 times, n=11). Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) samples were collected from all subjects for metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS). Oral health indicators and clinical data were also collected. Statistical analyses were performed using Spearman correlation analysis and multivariable Firth logistic regression analysis. Results:The frequent exacerbation group showed a significantly higher percentage of individuals with≥8 tooth loss compared to the non-frequent exacerbation group (96.4% vs 18.2%, P<0.001), a significantly younger age at first tooth loss in adulthood (53.96±7.30 years vs 62.10±5.80 years, P=0.003), and a significantly higher proportion of individuals who hardly brushed their teeth (50.00% vs 9.09%, P=0.038). The alpha-diversity indices of the lower respiratory tract microbiota were significantly lower in the frequent exacerbation group than in the non-frequent exacerbation group (all P<0.01). The relative abundances of Bacillota, Bacteroidota, Fusobacteriota, Streptococcus, Prevotella, Veillonella, Neisseria, Rothia, Prevotellamelaninogenica, Prevotellajejuni, Rothia mucilaginosa, Veillonella parvula, and Neisseria subflava were lower in the frequent exacerbation group (all P<0.05). In patients with AECOPD, the exacerbation frequency and the presence of ≥8 tooth loss were both negatively correlated with the Shannon index ( r=-0.854, P<0.001; r=-0.642, P<0.001, respectively). Further analysis revealed that Bacillota ( r=-0.862, P<0.001) and Streptococcus ( r=-0.814, P<0.001) were significantly negatively correlated with exacerbation frequency, while Pseudomonas was positively correlated with exacerbation frequency (all P<0.05). Bacillota ( r=0.369, P=0.021), Fusobacteriota ( r=0.368, P=0.021), and Veillonella ( r=0.379, P=0.017) were positively correlated with FEV 1% predicted. Multivariable Firth logistic regression analysis revealed that the first principal component of the microbial community ( OR=2.29, 95% CI: 1.20-11.07) and the loss of≥8 teeth ( OR=14.37, 95% CI: 1.42-482.51) were independent factors associated with frequent acute exacerbations. Conclusion:Frequent acute exacerbations of COPD are significant association with deteriorated oral health and dysbiosis of the lower respiratory tract microbiome, characterized by reduced alpha-diversity and depletion of commensal bacteria.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective: To investigate the effect of early multi-dimensional cardiac rehabilitation (CR) nursing mode on patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: From August 2017 to July 2018, 100 patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) underwent PCI in the Department of Cardiology, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were selected as subjects. According to the random number table, the patients were divided into control group and observation group, 50 in each group. The control group received routine CR nursing intervention, and the observation group was given early multi-dimensional CR nursing mode for intervention. All patients were followed up for 6 months. The incidence of major cardiovascular adverse events (MACE) was observed 1 month and 6 months of follow-up. Patients with somatization were evaluated on the 2nd day after PCI and in the first month of follow-up using the Somatic Self-rating Scale (SSS). In the first month and the 6th month of follow-up, patient compliance was assessed using the 8-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8). Results: During the study period, 3 patients were detached from each group, and there were 47 patients in both groups who completed the study. The incidence of MACE in the control group in 1 month and 6 months was 8.51% (4/47) and 4.26% (2/47), respectively. The incidence of MACE in the observation group was 10.64% (5/47) and 4.26%, (2/47) respectively. There was no significant difference in the incidence of MACE between the two groups (χ² value was 0.123, 0.000, P>0.05). In the first month of follow-up, the SSS scores of the control group (34.32±6.59) and the observation group (31.04±7.04) were lower than those of the second day after surgery (37.21±6.19, 37.43±7.29), and the difference was statistically significant (t value was 4.633, 2.660, P<0.05). The SSS scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (t value was 2.330, P<0.05). In the first month of follow-up, there was no significant difference in MMAS-8 score between the two groups (P>0.05). In the 6th month of follow-up, the MMAS-8 score (5.72±0.62) in the control group was lower than the first month of follow-up (6.93±0.54), and the difference was statistically significant (t value was 10.028, P<0.05). The MMAS-8 score of the control group was lower than that of the observation group (6.89±0.58), and the difference was statistically significant (t value was 9.490, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in MMAS-8 score between the observation group in the first month of follow-up and the sixth month of follow-up (P>0.05). Conclusion Early multi-dimensional CR nursing mode has a limited effect on improving the incidence of MACE in patients after PCI, but it can effectively reduce the somatization symptoms of patients and maintain good medication compliance.
