Objective: To conduct network analysis of biased constitution to provide theoretical basis for daily health management. Methods: Purposive sampling and snowball sampling methods were used to collect the required data via a web-based questionnaire from February 3rd, 2022 to January 21st, 2023. The tendency scores of 8 biased constitutions (qi-deficiency type, yang-deficiency type, yin-deficiency type, phlegm-dampness type, damp-heat type, blood-stasis type, qi-depression type, and special diathesis type) were evaluated by 30-Item Short Version of Constitution in Chinese Medicine Questionnaire. Data analysis was conducted in R. The qgraph package was used to construct network analysis models and calculate the edge weight, namely regularised partial correlation coefficients (r) and centrality coefficients (including strength, closeness, betweenness and expected influence), while mgm was used to calculate the predictability of each node within the network. The ggplot2 package was used to visualize network analysis result, and bootnet was applied to assess the structural reliability and robustness of the network, including the r accuracy assessment, the stability assessment of the centrality coefficients, and the difference test result of node centrality coefficients. Results: A total of 3, 691 valid samples were obtained from the survey. The result of the network analysis showed that: (1) the strength of the association between phlegm dampness type and damp-heat type (r=0.370), qi-deficiency type and qi-depression type (r =0.315), qi-deficiency type and special diathesis type (r=0.260), qi-deficiency type and phlegm-dampness type (r=0.247), and the phlegm-dampness type and qi-depression type (r=0.247) was high. (2) The centrality of phlegm-dampness type and qi-deficiency type was the strongest, and the differences between the centrality coefficients of phlegm-dampness type and qi-deficiency type were not significant. There were no other nodes where all 4 centrality coefficients were not significantly different from qi-deficiency type and phlegm-dampness type, and the predictability of phlegm-dampness type and qi-deficiency type was the highest. (3)The result of the r accuracy assessment showed that the r of this network did not differ significantly from the average of multiple samples, so the r accuracy of this network was high. (4) Correlation stability(CS) coefficient of the four centrality indicators were CS Strength=0.59, CS Closeness=0.75, CS Betweenness=0.75, and CS Expected influence=0.75. This indicated that the stability of the centrality indicators of this network was very good. Conclusion Complex connections exist between various biased constitutions, and phlegm-dampness type and qi-deficiency type are the two key biased constitutions in the entire biased constitution.

Objective:To analyze the current situation of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and its influencing factors among community-dwelling elderly with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) based on the health ecology model (HEM).Methods:From December 2023 to September 2024, a cross-sectional survey was conducted among 997 community-dwelling elderly in Beijing, Shandong, Chongqing and other regions. The EuroQol five-dimensional questionnaire 5 level (EQ-5D-5L), the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), and the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) were used to assess the subjects.Descriptive analysis, Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Tobit regression analysis were performed using Stata 18.0 software. Results:A total of 324 valid samples were finally obtained, and the health utility value of MCI elderly was 0.842(0.815, 0.951). Tobit regression analysis showed that ≥80 years old( β=-0.121, 95% CI=-0.193--0.050) in individual traits level, don't exercise( β=-0.196, 95% CI=-0.255--0.137) and poor quality of sleep ( β=-0.064, 95% CI=-0.116--0.013) in behavior characteristics level, and poor subjective economic status( β=-0.153, 95% CI=-0.261--0.045) in living and working conditions level were risk factors for the health utility value of the elderly with MCI. Drinking( β=0.096, 95% CI=0.022-0.171) in behavior characteristics level and participating in social activities( β=0.126, 95% CI=0.062-0.190) in interpersonal network level were protective factors for the health utility value of the elderly with MCI. Conclusions:The HRQOL of the community-dwelling elderly with MCI in China is low, and its influencing factors are multi-level. HEM should be combined to strengthen the intervention and management of the elderly with MCI from personal constitution to policy environment to improve their HRQOL.

Objective:To investigate the status of sedentary behavior and its influencing factors among inpatients with stable schizophrenia, providing empirical evidence for developing interventions to reduce sedentary behavior.Methods:A cross-sectional survey design was used to prospectively collect clinical data from 166 inpatients with stable schizophrenia (97 males, 69 females, mean age 56.4±8.4 years) hospitalized at the Shanghai Mental Health Center affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from February 2024 to May 2024. Sedentary behavior time was assessed using the Sedentary Behavior Questionnaire (SBQ), daily step count was measured via pedometers, and negative schizophrenic symptoms were evaluated using the Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS). Patients were divided into a non-sedentary behavior group (≥5 000 steps/day, 66 cases) and a sedentary behavior group (<5 000 steps/day, 100 cases). Clinical variables were compared between the two groups, and binary logistic regression was used to identify influencing factors of sedentary behavior.Results:Stable inpatients with schizophrenia exhibited high levels of sedentary behavior, with an average daily sedentary time of (8.03±2.33) hours and a median daily step count of 3 352 (1 258-5 506) steps. Significant differences were observed between sedentary and non-sedentary behavior groups in Age ( t=-2.38),hospitalization duration ( Z=-1.53),blunted affect ( t=-8.37),poverty of thought ( t=-2.45),avolition ( t=-2.45),impoverished interests/social engagement ( t=-2.41),abdominal obesity ( χ2=9.18),and open vs. restricted hospital/wards environment ( χ2=8.88)(all P<0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis identified that hospital/wards environment ( OR=0.314, 95 %CI: 0.125-0.787),hospitalization duration ( OR=1.001, 95 %CI: 1.000-1.001),and the negative symptom of blunted affect ( OR=3.256, 95 %CI: 1.960-5.407)(all P<0.05) were significantly influencing factors for sedentary behavior in patients with stable schizophrenia. Conclusion:Hospitalized patients with stable schizophrenia exhibit high levels of sedentary behavior. Hospital/wards environment and blunted affect are significant factors influencing sedentary behavior.

Objective To evaluate the application value of aspiration catheter and debulking technology in the treatment of patients with intermediate-and high-risk pulmonary thromboembolism(PTE).Methods The clinical data of 28 patients with intermediate-and high-risk PTE were analyzed retrospectively.All subjects received thrombectomy using a 7F JR Guiding catheter.The success rate of surgery and the incidence of complications were counted,and the preoperative and postoperative values in heart rate(HR),systolic blood pressure(SBP),oxygen saturation(SO2),partial pressure of oxygen(PO2),Miller index,and mean pulmonary arterial pressure(MPAP)were compared.Results All patients were successfully treated,of which 26 cases obtained symptomatic relief after surgery.There were 2 cases of death in high-risk patients,of whom one died of myocardial infarction,and the other died of cerebral herniation after the procedure.One case reported the formation of pulmonary artery small dissection which disappeared within 2 months during conservative observation.The postoperative HR,Miller index,and MPAP decreased and SBP,SO2,and P()2 increased significantly than those of preoperative(P＜0.05).The follow-up period for this group ranged from 7 to 29 months,with a median follow-up of 14.6(7,19)months.During the follow-up period,no recurrences were observed.Conclusion The aspiration catheter and debulking technology demonstrate efficacy in treating intermediate-and high-risk PTE,and is associated with favourable success rates and low complication rates.The findings suggest its potential for wider clinical use.

Objective:To explore the application effect of debate-style ethics teaching among undergraduate nursing interns under the background of "doctor-patient conflicts".Method:A total of 128 nursing interns,who interned in Yantai Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical University from January 2022 to July 2023,were selected as the research subjects.Using the historical controlled study and according to the random envelope method,undergraduate nursing interns from June 2022 to December 2022 were divided into the intervention group with a total of 64 cases,and undergraduate nursing interns from January 2023 to July 2023 were divided into the control group with a total of 64 cases.Finally,60 undergraduate nursing interns both the intervention group and the control group completed this study.The control group adopted the traditional nursing ethics teaching mode,while the intervention group adopted debate-style ethics teaching based on the background of "doctor-patient conflicts".The teaching effect was evaluated by using the Ethical Sensitivity Questionnaire for Nursing Students,the Professional Identity Questionnaire for Nursing Students,and the Clinical Nursing Instructors before and after the intervention.Result:The research results showed that the scores of ethical sensitivity,professional identity,and clinical nursing instructors of nursing interns in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group after the intervention,and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion:Debate-style ethics teaching based on the background of "doctor-patient conflicts" can improve the ethical sensitivity,professional identity,and clinical nursing instructors of nursing interns,as well as significantly improve the effectiveness of clinical nursing ethics mentoring.

ObjectiveTo adapt to the dynamic multidimensional changes in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） constitution， the paths of improving the quality of life through TCM constitution intervention are proposed from a configuration perspective. MethodsFive hundred and nine subjects were included in the study， all of whom voluntarily participated in and completed TCM constitution interventions， and completed 60-item Constitution in Chinese Medicine Questionnaire （CCMQ） （including 9 subscales： neutral type， qi deficient type， yang deficient type， yin deficient type， phlegm-dampness type， damp-heat type， blood stasis type， qi stagnation type， and special constitution type） to evaluate the TCM constitution， and the Short Form Health Questionnaire （SF-36） in Chinese version （including overall， physical component scores （PCS）， and mental component scores （MCS）） before and 6 months after the intervention to evaluate the quality of life. The necessary condition analysis （NCA） and fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis （fsQCA） were used to explore the necessary conditions and advantage configurations for improving the overall， physical and mental quality of life of TCM constitution dimension changes. ResultsThe results of NCA showed that the changes in the scores of neutral type and qi stagnation type can serve as necessary conditions for improving the SF-36 overall quality of life scores （P＜0.05）. The changes in the scores of neutral type and blood stasis type can serve as necessary conditions for improving PCS scores. The changes in scores of the other 7 types can serve as necessary conditions for improving MCS scores. The fsQCA results showed that the necessary consistency of a change in a particular physical subscale score alone did not reach to a necessary condition for a change in SF-36 total score， PCS score， and MCS score （consistency ＜ 0.9 for all）， so the results of NCA were considered. The results of configuration analysis found that 6 configurations were included in increasing the overall quality of life scores and PCS scores， and 7 in increasing the MCS scores， with overall consistency ＞ 0.7. Improving the overall quality of life scores required a focus on lowering the qi deficient type scores， or reducing the yang deficient type scores while increasing the neutral type scores； reducing the scores of phlegm-dampness type and qi stagnation type is beneficial for improving the PCS scores； increasing the neutral type scores and reducing the scores of deficient type， yang deficient type， phlegm-dampness type， and stagnation type is beneficial for increasing MCS scores. ConclusionTCM constitution interventions can improve physical， mental and overall quality of life， and its improvement in the mental domain of quality of life is closely related to the paths of overall quality of life. In order to improve the quality of life， in addition to increasing the tendency of the neutral type， more focused and targeted measures should also be taken to decrease the degrees of qi deficient type， yang deficient type， qi stagnation type， and phlegm-dampness type.

Objective:To explore the prevalence, clinical features, genetic characteristics and prognosis of Citrin deficiency in Henan province of China.Methods:A total of 986 565 neonates screened by tandem mass spectrometry at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2013 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Analysis of SLC25A13 gene variants and parental verification were carried out for neonates suspected for Citrin deficiency by next-generation sequencing. The clinical, biochemical and genetic characteristics of Citrin deficiency patients were integrated to guide the diet treatment and follow up the growth and development. Paired- t test was used to compare the amino acid levels in the peripheral blood samples before and after the treatment. Results:Nine cases of Citrin deficiency were diagnosed among the 986 565 neonates. Specific elevation of citrulline was observed in all of the 9 cases. Six variants were detected by genetic sequencing, among which c. 852_855delTATG, c. 615+ 5G>A, c. 550C>T and IVS16ins3kb were known pathogenic variants, whilst c. 1111_1112delAT and c. 837T>A were unreported previously. The detection rate for c. 852_855delTATG was the highest (61.6%, 11/18), followed by IVS16ins3kb (16.7%, 3/18). The clinical symptoms of all patients were relieved after the treatment, and the blood amino acid profile and biochemical parameters were significantly improved by gradually falling within the normal range. By June 2022, all patients had shown a good prognosis.Conclusion:The prevalence of Citrin deficiency among neonates from Henan Province by tandem mass spectrometry is 1/109 618, and the carrier rate for the pathogenic variants of the SLC25A13 gene was 1/166. The c. 852_855delTATG may be a hot spot variant among the patients. Discovery of the novel variants has enriched the mutational spectrum of the SLC25A13 gene. Above results have provided a basis for the early diagnosis, treatment, prognosis and genetic counseling for the affected families.
