Objective:To explore the dynamic change trajectory and influencing factors of postoperative fatigue (POF) in patients with early digestive tract cancer undergoing endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), so as to provide theoretical basis for individualized management of such patients.Methods:Using cross-sectional survey and convenient sampling method, the patients who underwent ESD for early cancer of digestive tract in the endoscopic center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January to June 2024 were selected as the research objects. The questionnaires were conducted at 30 min, 24 h, 3 days, 5 days, 7 days after ESD with Christensen's postoperative fatigue score. Spearman test was used to analyze the correlation between pain, insomnia and POF. The latent variable growth model was used to identify the potential categories of POF trajectory, and the influencing factors were analyzed by Logistic regression.Results:A total of 232 patients were finally induded, with ages of 19-94(59.53 ± 13.29) years, including 120 males and 112 femalss. The POF level of patients with early cancer of digestive tract showed a downward trend one week after operation. Three postoperative fatigue trajectories were fitted, 9.05% in moderate or severe fatigue low-speed smooth descent group (C1 group); 32.76% in moderate fatigue first decreased quickly and then slowly group (C2 group) and 58.19% in mild fatigue continuous decline group (C3 group). The result of Logistic regression analysis showed that, compared with C1 group, people without religious beliefs were morelikely to enter C2 group [ β = 1.572, OR = 4.818(1.033 - 22.465), P<0.05]; compared with C3 group, patients with high pain level and severe insomnia degree were likely to enter C1 [ β = 2.621, 0.663, OR were 13.754(2.692 - 70.283) and 1.942(1.429 - 2.638), both P<0.05] and C2 [ β = 2.010, 0.491, OR were 7.464(1.890 - 29.482) and 1.634(1.348 - 1.982), both P<0.05] group. Conclusions:There were three potential types of POF in patients with early digestive tract cancer ESD. Medical staff should pay attention to patients with severe insomnia, intense pain and religious beliefs, and give staged fatigue assessment and individualized intervention, so as to reduce the level of POF and promote rapid recovery.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), is a chronic immune-mediated disease with uncertain causes. Malnutrition in IBD patients, attributed to factors such as inadequate intake, increased consumption, poor absorption, and bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine, poses a prevalence of 23%–50%, elevating the risk of readmission and mortality while diminishing quality of life. Therefore, urgent implementation of personalized dietary interventions is crucial for enhancing adherence and rectifying malnutrition in IBD patients.

Objective:To assess the fall risk of hospitalized patients with cardiovascular diseases, analyze the related influencing factors, and construct a prediction model based on machine learning technology, so as to provide a basis for the fall management of hospitalized patients with cardiovascular diseases.Methods:This study was a retrospective cohort study. A total of 450 patients admitted to the Department of Cardiology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from June 2017 to June 2024 were selected as the research objects by convenience sampling method. By reviewing electronic medical records, trained nurses extracted the patients' general information and Activities of Daily Living Scale (ADL) scores during hospitalization. Lasso regression was used to screen risk factors, and machine learning libraries were used to construct support vector machine (SVM), decision tree, XGBoost, and neural network models. Bootstrap resampling method and area under the curve (AUC) were used to verify the model performance.Results:Among the 450 patients, there were 261 males and 189 females, with a mean age of (66.0 ± 8.4) years. Among them, 90 patients fell during hospitalization and 360 patients did not fall. The results of Lasso regression showed that ADL score ≤60 points, use of hypnotics, hypokalemia, nighttime toilet visits≥2 times, use of antihypertensive drugs, no caregiver, and history of atrial fibrillation were all risk factors for falls in hospitalized patients with cardiovascular diseases (regression coefficients ranging from 0.61 to 1.20, all P<0.01). Among the machine learning models, XGBoost had the best comprehensive performance (AUC=0.98), which was better than decision tree (AUC=0.66), SVM (AUC=0.95), and neural network (AUC=0.87). Conclusions:The fall risk of hospitalized patients with cardiovascular diseases is jointly affected by physiological, medication and behavioral factors, and the XGBoost model can effectively identify high-risk groups. In actual clinical work, nursing strategies can be optimized in combination with risk factors, and the application of intelligent fall prediction and assessment tools can be promoted.
