Objective To describe the clinical characteristics and nutritional management status of hospitalized elderly patients with multimorbidity in a tertiary hospital's geriatric center in 2024, and to analyze the correlation between nutritional status and hospitalization outcomes, thereby providing a basis for optimizing nutritional management pathways for this population. Methods A retrospective study was conducted, including 2 937 elderly patients with multimorbidity. Data on general information, clinical indicators, nutritional risk screening and assessment, nutritional therapy, and costs were collected for descriptive analysis. The relationship between nutritional status (based on BMI and serum albumin levels) and hospitalization outcomes was explored. Results The average age of the patients was (77.45±10.70) years, with 57.17% being male. The average number of chronic diseases diagnosed was (11.56±5.08) per patient, and 26.01% were critically ill. The nutritional risk screening rate was 80.40%, with a screening positivity rate of 33.44%. The nutritional assessment rate was 31.63%, and the malnutrition prevalence was 23.08%. The low BMI group had the longest median hospital stay [15 (9.75, 22) days] and the highest hospitalization costs [15 057.2 (8 980.48, 28 160.46) CNY]. Serum albumin levels were negatively correlated with hospital stay duration (rs=-0.276, P< 0.01) and hospitalization costs (rs=-0.276, P<0.01). Conclusion Hospitalized elderly patients with multimorbidity are characterized by multiple comorbidities and high healthcare resource consumption. While the nutritional risk screening rate is relatively high, there remains room for improvement in nutritional assessment and therapy. It is necessary to strengthen standardized management throughout the entire process. Nutritional status is a significant variable affecting hospital stay duration and costs, with poorer nutritional status significantly associated with prolonged hospitalization and higher costs, suggesting that it may be an important factor influencing hospitalization outcomes.

Objective:To understand the current situation of the ability to screen health information of the elderly in rural areas and analyze its influencing factors, so as to provide a basis for taking targeted measures.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was adopted, and rural elderly people in Yonghe Town, Dahu Town and Dayao Town of Liuyang City, Hunan Province were selected as the survey subjects by the convenience sampling method. The investigation was conducted using the general information Questionnaire, the Health Information Discrimination Ability Scale, the filial Piety Expectation Scale and the two-way Social Support Scale.Results:A total of 228 questionnaires were distributed, and 215 valid questionnaires were retrieved, with an effective recovery rate of 94.30%. Among the 215 rural elderly people surveyed, 86 were male and 129 were female. The ability to discriminate health information was (69.19 ± 13.41) points, the expectation of filial piety was (37.67 ± 6.12) points, and the two-way social support was (46.82 ± 8.11) points. The ability of rural elderly people to discriminate health information was positively correlated with filial piety expectations and two-way social support ( r = 0.340, 0.456; both P<0.01). The results of hierarchical regression analysis showed that educational level, filial piety expectations and two-way social support were the influencing factors of the current status of health information discrimination ability of rural elderly people ( t values were 2.60 to 5.35, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The ability of discriminating health information of the elderly in rural areas is affected by the educational level, filial piety expectation and two-way social support. The health information of rural elderly people with low education level should be screened and targeted, so as to enrich their cultural life and combine education with fun. Actively build a filial piety culture to promote children′s attention to their parents. In addition to providing social support for the elderly, we should promote their interpersonal and social communication and exert their self-value, so as to improve the health information screening ability of the elderly in rural areas.

Objective:To explore the relationship between childhood abuse, pleasure experience, sleep quality and self-injury behavior in adolescents with depressive disorder.Methods:One hundred and twenty adolescent patients with depressive disorder hospitalized in the Fourth People's Hospital of Hefei City from January 2021 to February 2024 were selected as the study group, as well as 120 healthy controls matched with the patients' age, gender and education level were selected as the control group.The adolescent non-suicidal self-injury assessment questionnaire, Pittsburgh sleep quality index, temporal experience of pleasure scale, and childhood trauma questionnaire were used for assessment. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0 software. Independent sample t-test was used for comparison between the two groups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze correlations between scale scores. Chain mediating modeling was used with the PROCESS macro program. Results:The differences of the study group and the control group in childhood abuse ((53.33±15.21), (39.07±11.81), t=8.081, P<0.001), pleasure experience ((85.60±15.77), (67.44±19.46), t=7.941, P<0.001), self-injury behavior ((29.01±9.89), (3.76±0.49), t=8.811, P<0.001), sleep quality ((12.24±4.15), (6.56±4.05), t=10.711, P<0.001), and depression ((30.62±7.97), (5.88±3.28), t=31.451, P<0.001) were all statistically significant. The self-injury behavior of the study group was positively correlated with the sleep quality ( r=0.487, P<0.001) and childhood abuse ( r=0.553, P<0.001), and negatively correlated with the pleasure experience ( r=-0.483, P<0.001). Childhood abuse had a negative predictive effect on pleasure experience ( β=-0.491, P<0.001), there was a positive predictive effect of childhood abuse on sleep quality ( β=0.363, P<0.001), there was a negative predictive effect of pleasure experience on sleep quality ( β=-0.321, P<0.001), there was a simultaneous predictive effect of childhood abuse, pleasure experience and sleep quality on self-injury behaviors predictive effect ( β=0.343, P<0.001, β=-0.211, P<0.001, β=0.208, P<0.001).The total effect of childhood abuse on self-injury behavior mediated by pleasure experience and sleep quality was 0.555(95% CI=0.448-0.663), and the direct effect was 0.343(95% CI=0.219-0.468).The mediating effect of pleasure experience between childhood abuse and self-injury behavior was 0.104(95% CI=0.007-0.196), accounting for 18.74% of the total effect, the mediating effect of sleep quality between childhood abuse and self-injury behavior was 0.075(95% CI=0.028-0.133), accounting for 13.51% of the total effect, and the chain mediating effect of pleasure experience and sleep quality between childhood abuse and self-injury behavior was 0.033(95% CI=0.011-0.060), accounting for 5.95% of the total effect. Conclusion:Sleep quality and pleasure experience exert the chain mediating effect between the childhood abuse and self-injury behavior in adolescents with depressive disorders.

Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic value of radiotherapy in combined immunotherapy and chemotherapy as first-line treatment for patients with oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on data from 195 NSCLC patients who lacked epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) or anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) mutations and were treated at the Anyang Tumor Hospital and the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2019 to December 2021. These patients consisted of 166 male and 29 female cases, aged from 28 to 85 years, with an average age of (61.4 ± 9.3) years. These patients were divided into two groups, with each group receiving the radiotherapy and combined immunotherapy and chemotherapy (the radiotherapy and combination group, n = 60) and combined immunotherapy and chemotherapy only (the combination group, n = 135). Then, propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to analyze the differences in prognosis between both groups before and after PSM, as well as the short-term efficacy and adverse reactions after PSM. Results:For the 195 NSCLC patients, the median follow-up time was 31.8 months, with median overall survival (OS) and median progression-free survival (PFS) recorded at 23.8 months and 9.2 months, respectively. The radiotherapy and combination group exhibited enhanced 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates of 78.5%, 55.9%, and 45.1%, respectively, significantly higher than the combination group (48.3%, 35.6%, and 26.6%, respectively, χ2 = 14.65, P < 0.001). Similarly, the radiotherapy and combination group displayed 1-, 2-, and 3-year PFS rates of 51.9%, 29.5%, and 22.7%, respectively, exceeding those of the combination group (30.0%, 24.5%, and 16.9%, respectively, χ2=6.09, P=0.014). After PSM, the radiotherapy and combination group manifested an objective response rate (ORR) of 60.0% (33/55) and a disease control rate (DCR) of 89.1% (49/55), which were 16.4% (9/55) and 56.4% (31/55), respectively for the combination group. These results suggested that the radiotherapy and combination group demonstrated significantly higher ORR and DCR ( χ2 = 22.18, 14.85, P<0.001). After PSM, the radiotherapy and combination group yielded 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates of 70.9%, 52.3%, and 41.9%, respectively, significantly than the combination group (43.6%, 29.8%, and 27.1%, respectively, χ2=8.95, P=0.003). The radiotherapy and combination group exhibited 1-, 2-, and 3-year PFS rates of 47.3%, 27.3%, and 18.7%, respectively, significantly higher than the combination group (23.6%, 17.6%, and 15.4%, respectively, χ2 = 6.71, P = 0.010). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that independent factors affecting OS included clinical stage, treatment regimen, number of immunotherapy cycles, and treatment efficacy ( HR = 1.88, 2.11, 0.23, 1.79, P < 0.05). Similarly, independent factors affecting PFS consisted of treatment regimen, number of immunotherapy cycles, and treatment efficacy ( HR = 1.62, 0.37, 3.42, P <0.05). There were no statistical differences in the incidence of grade ≥ 2 bone marrow suppression (18.2% vs. 12.7%) and grade ≥ 2 pneumonia (21.8% vs. 14.5%) between both groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Introducing radiotherapy into combined immunotherapy and chemotherapy as first-line treatment for oligometastatic NSCLC can optimize both local and systemic disease control and significantly improve patient prognosis without increasing treatment-related adverse reactions.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness and safety of lacosamide (LCM) in pregnant women with epilepsy.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted involving 6 pregnant women with epilepsy who were treated with LCM at the Electroencephalogram Monitoring Center of the Department of Neurology, Xijing Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University from January 2022 to June 2023. Their electroclinical characteristics, seizures during pregnancy, breastfeeding, and follow-up were summarized.Results:The 6 patients were aged 22 to 30 years at the time of pregnancy. Three patients were treated with monotherapy, with a daily dose of LCM ranging from 150 mg to 200 mg, while the other 3 patients were treated with combination therapy, with a daily dose of 150 mg. The seizures of 5 patients decreased during pregnancy compared with progestation except for the case 2 without adherence to Medication. No malformations were observed in the newborns, with the Apgar scores of 9-10 at 1 minute and 5 minutes after birth. The infants showed normal growth, development, intelligence, and motor skills in subsequent assessments. Two patients breastfed their infants, 1 for 6 months and the other for 14 months by the last follow-up, with a daily LCM dose of 150 mg to 300 mg during the breastfeeding. No adverse reactions were observed in the infants.Conclusion:The addition of LCM during pregnancy and lactation showed good effectiveness and safety, with no observed birth malformations.

Objective:To explore the feasibility of using a simplified multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) for the diagnosis of narcolepsy type 1.Methods:Data from 158 patients with narcolepsy type 1 and 58 patients with non-type 1 narcolepsy who underwent overnight video-polysomnography (V-PSG) and MSLT in the Sleep Center, Department of Neurology, Xijing Hospital, Air Force Military Medical University from March 2019 to April 2024 were retrospectively collected. By reducing the number of naps in the MSLT, the diagnostic consistency between the simplified MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The DeLong test was used to compare whether there was a statistically significant difference between the simplified MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT. Cohen′s Kappa statistical analysis was performed to compare the diagnostic consistency between the simplified MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT.Results:The age of the 216 patients who were ultimately enrolled was 17 (13, 30) years, including 152 male patients (70.4%). The Cohen′s Kappa between the simplified 3-nap MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT was 0.875, which was 0.903 between the simplified 4-nap MSLT and the standard 5-nap MSLT (Bonferroni-corrected, both P0.001), indicating high and statistically significant agreement for both simplified protocols with the standard test. However, the DeLong test revealed that the area under the curve of the standard 5-nap MSLT (0.900, 95% CI 0.863-0.938) differed significantly from that of the simplified 3-nap MSLT (0.860, 95% CI 0.817-0.904; P0.05), whereas no significant difference was observed between the standard 5-nap MSLT and the simplified 4-nap MSLT (0.876, 95% CI 0.834-0.918; P0.05). Consequently, performing only the first 4 naps was sufficient for diagnosing narcolepsy type 1. Conclusion:The simplified 4-nap MSLT, specifically the first to fourth naps, may be used for the diagnosis of narcolepsy type 1.
