Objective:To analyze sentinel symptoms in gastric cancer chemotherapy patients based on symptom cluster theory and provide a basis for effective symptom assessment and management.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select gastric cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from June 2022 to May 2023. Patients were surveyed using a basic demographic questionnaire and the M.D. Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI). The Apriori algorithm was applied to identify sentinel symptoms within symptom clusters during chemotherapy.Results:A total of 195 questionnaires were distributed, and 187 valid responses were collected, yielding a response rate of 95.90% (187/195). A total of four symptom clusters were identified: physical symptom cluster (fatigue-pain-restless sleep-drowsiness-weight loss), gastrointestinal symptom cluster (nausea-appetite loss-dry mouth-vomiting), emotional symptom cluster (sadness-distress), and gastric cancer-specific symptom cluster (feeling full-changed appetite-diarrhea-constipation). Fatigue, nausea, sadness, and feeling full were identified as sentinel symptoms for the physical, gastrointestinal, emotional, and gastric cancer-specific symptom clusters, respectively.Conclusions:Gastric cancer chemotherapy patients experience various symptom clusters, with fatigue, nausea, sadness, and feeling full being potential sentinel symptoms within their respective clusters.

Advances in imaging technology have revolutionized the field of ophthalmology, changing the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of ophthalmic diseases. Swept-source optical coherence tomography(SS-OCT)is a non-contact high-resolution imaging technology. It further improves imaging depth and scanning speed, adds new algorithms and features. The application of SS-OCT enables the three-dimensional evaluation of corneal structures, offering curvature and height maps for both the anterior and posterior surfaces of the cornea, as well as precise corneal thickness mapping. These invaluable tools aid ophthalmologists in effectively screening and diagnosing various corneal lesions such as keratoconus, corneal dystrophy, and degeneration. Moreover, the enhanced speed, accuracy, and sensitivity provided by SS-OCT measurements facilitate improved surgical planning and postoperative monitoring for patients undergoing refractive surgery or keratoplasty. This article reviews the development of SS-OCT technology and its potential clinical utility in corneal diseases and surgical application, in order to support more possible future research and clinical treatment.

Objective To investigate HPV vaccine hesitancy and influencing factors among parents of primary and secondary schools in Guangyuan, and to provide scientific countermeasures for reducing the hesitancy rate of HPV vaccine in parents. Methods Using stratified multi-stage cluster random sampling, 1,018 parents of girls in primary and secondary schools in Guangyuan were selected for a questionnaire survey from March to July 2021. The data were analyzed by Chi-square test and multivariate logistic regression model. Results The hesitancy rate of HPV vaccine in parents was 42.95%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that families with low economic income, parents who believed that HPV vaccination would have long-term side effects, and be unsafe and expensive, and parents who concerned with the effect of HPV vaccine on the prevention of cervical cancer and insufficient supply of first doses of vaccine, had positive effects on HPV vaccine hesitancy (OR = 2.02, 1.44, 3.13, 1.53, 3.76, and 2.43, respectively, P < 0.05). Conclusion HPV vaccine hesitancy rate is high among parents of primary and secondary schools in Guangyuan. It is necessary to fully promote school education and increase the publicity of HPV vaccine to improve parents' awareness of HPV vaccine. Government departments need to make an overall plan to reduce vaccine costs and ensure sufficient vaccine quantity, so as to reduce parents' hesitation to vaccinate their children with HPV vaccine.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) combined with task-oriented rehabilitation training single pellet reaching and grasping (SPG) on the motor function of forelimb in rats with unilateral contusion of C5 spinal cord. MethodsA total of 60 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (sham group), spinal cord injury (SCI) group, tDCS group, SPG group, false group and tDCS+SPG group, with ten rats in each group. Only C5 lamina was removed in the sham group, and the C5 spinal cord contusion model was established by IH spinal cord impactor in the other five groups. The rats received tDCS in tDCS group, SPG in SPG group, tDCS without current in false group, tDCS combined with SPG in tDCS+SPG group, and no treatment in the SCI and the sham groups. The rats were evaluated with Rearing and Grooming tests, and motor-evoked potential (MEP). ResultsFour weeks after operation, compared with SCI group, the scores of Rearing and Grooming increased in tDCS group and tDCS+SPG group (P < 0.05), and they were more in the tDCS+SPG group than in tDCS group and SPG group (P < 0.05); the score of Grooming increased in SPG group (P < 0.05); while the amplitude of MEP increased in tDCS group, SPG group and tDCS+SPG group (P < 0.05), and the latency shortened in tDCS group and tDCS+SPG group (P < 0.05); and the amplitude increased more in tDCS+SPG group than in tDCS group and SPG group (P < 0.01). ConclusiontDCS could promote the recovery of motor function in rats with SCI, and the combination therapy of tDCS and task-oriented rehabilitation training is more effective.

Objective:To investigate the effect of short single reverse-α fixation of nasobiliary tube after endoscopic nasobiliary drainage.Methods:From January 2019 to October 2019, the patients who performed with endoscopic nasolbiliary drainage in Tongji University Affiliated Shanghai East Hospital were randomly divided into experimental group (short single reverse-α fixation, 155 cases) and control group (routine reverse-α fixation, 137 cases). The incidences of the fixation time, prolapse rate, nursing time, scores of nasal comfort and bile flow rate of nasobiliary duct were evaluated between the two groups.Results:The average time of nasobiliary duct fixation was (18.31±1.67) s, the prolapse rate was 5.2% (8/155) and the time of nursing was (35.03±2.68) s, which were lower than those of the control group (46.50±5.50) s, 13.9% (19/137) and (72.07±7.63) s. The difference was statistically significant ( t or χ 2 values were 60.795, 6.570, 56.629, P<0.01 or 0.05). The comfort score of the experimental group was (4.61±1.06) points, the bile flow rate was (241.52±53.95) ml/days, which were higher than (5.76±0.76) points and (174.09±47.55) ml/days of the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 10.448, 11.265, P<0.01). Conclusions:Shortening the length of nasobiliary duct combined with single reaction "α" method has the advantages of simper operation and nursing, low prolapse rate, high comfort and good drainage effect. It is worthy of clinical application.
