With the deepening of population aging, the number of disabled and semi-disabled elderly individuals continues to increase, and the ethical care issues of mental health services for the disabled elderly are becoming increasingly prominent. When examining ethical issues, the concept of the “holistic view of traditional Chinese medicine” from ancient Chinese traditional culture was explored. While applying theories from the holistic view of traditional Chinese medicine, such as “the unity of form and spirit” and “the integration of form and spirit,” emphasis should be placed on the organic integration of psychology and physiology. The mental health status of the disabled elderly can be comprehensively improved by addressing both internal and external environmental factors. In response to the current situation of mental health services for the disabled elderly, ethical care should be provided for the mental health services of the disabled elderly, focusing on the value of subjectivity, difference, and continuity in ethical care, thereby improving the mental health status of the disabled elderly.

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of pudendal nerve modulation (PNM) in the treatment of female pudendal neuralgia (PN),so as to promote the clinical application of this technique. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 20 female PN patients who failed conservative treatment at Gongli Hospital during Nov.2020 and Oct.2023.All patients underwent simultaneous PNM and sacral nerve modulation (SNM) with the assistance of 3D printing navigation.Dual-stage test electrodes for PNM and SNM were implanted,followed by alternate therapeutic trial for each modality.Secondary conversion rates and longitudinal outcomes,including visual analogue score (VAS),patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9),and quality of life (QoL) scores were compared preoperatively,post-stage Ⅰ,and at 3,6,and 12 months post-stage Ⅱ. Results: All operations were successful.After the trial phase,the secondary conversion rate for PNM was significantly higher than that for SNM; 16 patients (16/20,80%) chose the second-phase PNM implantation surgery,3 (3/20,15%) chose second-phase SNM implantation,and 1 (1/20,5%) had electrodes removed due to ineffective results from both trials.Further assessment revealed that the improvements in VAS,PHQ-9,and QoL scores for PNM patients were significantly better than those for SNM patients after the first phase of surgery and at 3,6 and 12 months after the second-phase conversion (P<0.05).No complications such as electrode migration or infection were observed during the follow-up of 12-15 months. Conclusion: PNM provides more effective relief of pain symptoms and improvements in depressive states for female PN patients compared to SNM.With the assistance of 3D printing navigation,the operation is simple and safe,and offers stable therapeutic effects.It is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Aim To establish a gait analysis system based on DeepLabCut(DLC)algorithm for evaluating motor function in aged mice.Methods Based on DLC algorithm in deep learning technology,treadmill device and fully closed design were used in the system,including software and hardware.This system was applied to evaluate gait characteristics of mice due to aging un-der different movement modes.Correlation analysis was used to explore the effects of body weight and body length on gait indica-tors.Results This system realized the synchronous analysis of three-dimensional gait(lateral and ventral plane)of mice at specific gait speed,and automatically quantified 47 gait indica-tors.Using this system,it was found that during walking(15 cm·s-1),the standard deviation of body turning angle decreased,forelimb sway duration,standard deviation of knee angle,mean outward angles of left and right hind paw increased in 8 and 15 month-old mice,compared with 2-month-old mice.However,15-month-old mice showed decreased walking frequency,and in-creased stride width,total duration of double support,and knee extension and contraction distance.In addition,at trot(20 cm·s-1),15-month-old mice were unable to walk steadily,and 8-month-old mice had increased total duration of double support and mean outward angles of left hind paw,compared with 2-month-old mice.Correlation analysis revealed that indicators like walking frequency,stride width,forelimb sway duration,total duration of double support,standard deviation of knee an-gle,knee extension and contraction distance,were not affected by changes in body weight and body length.Conclusions The gait analysis system based on DLC algorithm can achieve a more sensitive,accurate and comprehensive evaluation of the gait of aged mice,distinguishing the gait characteristics of aged mice to maintain gait stability,and selecting behavioral indicators that better reflect the gait changes of aged mice.It provides a meth-odological basis for more effective assessment of efficacy and side effects of drugs for anti-aging and anti-decline of motor coordina-tion in the future.

A prokaryotic expression vector for the mutant diphtheria toxin CRM197 was constructed and expressed in Esch-erichia coli cells.Anti-CRM197 antibody concentrations were detected in serum samples of healthy volunteers.The crm 197 gene was codon-optimized in E.coli and cloned into the plasmid pET28a(+)under optimized expression conditions.CRM197 was purified using Ni-NTA spin columns and ion exchange chromatography,and confirmed by western blot analysis.The puri-fied CRM197 was used to detect specific anti-CRM197 antibody levels in serum samples of different age groups.The results showed that soluble codon-optimized CRM197 was successfully expressed under optimized expression conditions.The purity of CRM197 was more than 95%,as determined with Ni-NTA spin columns and ion exchange chromatography,consistent with the single specific bands obtained by western blot analysis and detection of serum levels of the anti-CRM197 antibody.Collec-tively,these results confirmed that the proposed expression strategy achieved high-yield production of soluble CRM197,al-though high levels in human serum may affect evaluation of immune interactions with glycan-CRM197 conjugates for applica-tion as a diagnostic antigen.The diphtheria mutant toxin CRM197 is used in many conjugate vaccines.The synthetic crm 197 gene with codon optimization in pET28a was transformed into E.coli Origami B(DE3)cells.CRM197 was induced by isopro-pyl β-d-1-thiogalactopyranoside and high level accumulation of soluble CRM197 was purified using Ni-NTA spin columns and ion exchange chromatography.The purity of the final prepara-tion reached 95%.CRM197 was used to detect the concentra-tions of the anti-CRM197 antibody in serum samples of healthy volunteers of different ages.The proposed expression strategy yielded high production of CRM197,which could interfere with evaluations of induced immune interactions by glycan-CRM197 conjugates and prohibit application as a diagnostic antigen.

Objective:To construct a bundled therapy management and practice program for sepsis and explore its clinical application effect.Methods:① Construction of sepsis bundled therapy management and practice program: a project team was established to conduct literature review, select experts, compile and distribute questionnaires, organize, analyze expert opinions, and ensure quality control throughout the research process. From October to November 2022, expert letter consultation was carried out, and questionnaires were distributed and collected by on-site filling and WeChat. The Likert 5-point scale was used to rate each item. ② Clinical application of the protocol: ninety patients with sepsis admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January to July 2022 were retrospectively selected as the control group, and routine bundle treatment and nursing strategy for sepsis were adopted. Ninety patients with sepsis admitted from January to July 2023 were prospectively selected as the intervention group. Based on the treatment and nursing strategy of the control group, sepsis bundled therapy management and practice program constructed using the Delphi inquiry method was implemented. The completion rate of 1-hour, 3-hour and 6-hour bundle, the levels of inflammatory indicators at 1, 3, 7 days of treatment, and prognostic indicators were compared between the two groups.Results:① Construction of sepsis bundled therapy management and practice program: the final plan consists of 4 primary indicators, 15 secondary indicators and 34 tertiary indicators. The response rates for both rounds of inquiry questionnaires were 100%. The coefficients of expert authority value were 0.948 and 0.940, respectively. The coefficient of variation for each item was 0-0.287 and 0-0.187, respectively. Kendall's W coefficients were 0.242 and 0.249, respectively, with statistical significances (all P < 0.05). ② Clinical application of the protocol: there were no statistically significant differences in baseline data such as age, gender, infection site, pathogen species, duration of mechanical ventilation, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) between the two groups. The completion rate of 1-hour, 3-hour and 6-hour bundle in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group (1-hour bundle completion rate: 53.30% vs. 21.10%, 3-hour bundle completion rate: 92.20% vs. 80.00%, 6-hour bundle completion rate: 88.89% vs. 65.56%, all P < 0.05). The levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), white blood cell count (WBC), procalcitonin (PCT), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in two groups of patients showed statistically significant differences at different time points, between groups, and in interaction effects. Compared with the control group, the length of ICU stay in the intervention group was significantly shortened [days: 7.00 (4.00, 14.00) vs. 8.00 (7.00, 20.00), P < 0.01], and the hospitalization cost of ICU was significantly reduced [ten thousand yuan: 4.63 (3.36, 6.19) vs. 6.46 (3.32, 11.34), P < 0.05]. The 28-day mortality in the intervention group was lower than that in the control group (33.33% vs. 46.67%), but the difference was not statistically significant ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:The constructed bundled therapy management and practice program for sepsis can improve the completion rate of bundle treatment, shorten the length of ICU stay of sepsis patients, reduce the hospitalization cost in ICU, and have a tendency to reduce the 28-day mortality.
