Objective To explore the effectiveness of the generative large language model MedGo in nursing decision-making for elderly patients with multimorbidity. Methods A quasi-randomized controlled trial study was conducted involving 6 junior nurses, 6 senior nurses and the MedGo model from January 1, 2025 to March 31, 2025 at the Emergency Internal Medicine Ward of Shanghai East Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University. Clinical data of 120 elderly patients with multimorbidity were analyzed to compare the performance of the three groups in four tasks (nursing diagnosis assessment, nursing intervention formulation, complication identification, and complication prevention) from three evaluation dimensions: decision-making time consumption, decision accuracy, and decision-making quality. Results In terms of decision-making time, the senior nurse group completed all four tasks faster than the junior nurse group (P＜0.01), and the MedGo group completed all four tasks faster than the junior nurse group (P＜0.001) and the senior nurse group (P＜0.001). In terms of decision-making accuracy, senior nurse group scored higher than junior nurse group in all four tasks (P＜0.001), while the MedGo group outperformed the senior nurse group only in complication identification (P＜0.001). In terms of decision-making quality, the MedGo group scored higher than junior nurse group (P＜0.001) and senior nurse group (P＜0.001) in all four tasks. Conclusions The MedGo model demonstrates advantages of high efficiency, accuracy, and quality in nursing decision-making for elderly patients with multimorbidity; senior nurses outperform junior nurses in decision-making, providing diverse references for clinical nursing decision-making.

AIM:To evaluate the optimal timing of preoperative intravitreal anti vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)therapy in proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR)using intraoperative fluorescein angiography(IOFA).METHODS:A retrospective case series study was conducted on patients who underwent vitrectomy for PDR with vitreous hemorrhage(VH)at Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2023 to February 2025. Patients were divided into three groups according to the interval between intravitreal conbercept injection and surgery: Group A(3 d before surgery), Group B(7 d before surgery), and Group C(14 d before surgery). IOFA was used to assess the number and size of retinal neovascularization(NV). Additional data were collected including preoperative best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), vitreous hemorrhage grading, operative time, frequency of intraoperative endodiathermy, duration of high perfusion pressure, vitreoretinal adhesion grade, postoperative BCVA, and central macular thickness(CMT). Multidimensional analyses were performed.RESULTS:This study enrolled a total of 91 patients(94 eyes)with PDR accompanied by vitreous hemorrhage. Among them, Group A consisted of 31 patients(31 eyes; 18 males, 13 females; mean age 53.26±12.38 y), Group B consisted of 34 patients(37 eyes; 21 males, 13 females; mean age 51.61±14.16 y), and Group C consisted of 26 patients(26 eyes; 18 males, 8 females; mean age 51.00±12.02 y), with baseline characteristics comparable among the three groups(all P>0.05). Comparative analysis of NV visualized via IOFA revealed that both the number and size of NVs were significantly lower in Groups B and C than in Group A(all P<0.0167), while no statistically significant differences were observed between Groups B and C(both P>0.05). No significant differences were found among the three groups regarding other intraoperative parameters, including operation time, frequency of electrocoagulation application, duration of high perfusion pressure, or grading of vitreoretinal adhesion(all P>0.05).CONCLUSION:IOFA confirms that preoperative anti-VEGF therapy administered 7 or 14 d before surgery is more effective than a 3 d interval in suppressing retinal NV activity in PDR patients.

ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of the 21 confirmed monkeypox cases in a district of Chengdu City, and to provide scientific guidance for the prevention and control of subsequent monkeypox epidemics. MethodsData of confirmed monkeypox cases residing in this district were collected from the Disease Control and Prevention Information System of China. A retrospective descriptive epidemiological analysis was used to analyze the demographic, distributional and behavioral characteristics of the cases. ResultsThe first confirmed case of monkeypox was reported on July 5, 2023. Up to April 30, 2025, a total of 21 confirmed cases of monkeypox have been reported. All cases were male, with a mean age of (30.9±6.2) years. The highest proportion of cases(47.62%) was in the 30‒40 years age group. The majority were men who have sex with men (MSM) population (90.48%, 19/21). The results showed that 19.05% of cases were co-infected with HIV, and 19.05% had a history of syphilis infection. Within 21 days prior to symptom onset, 19 cases (90.48%) self-reported engaging in male-to-male sexual contact, among whom 10 cases (52.63%) reported having taken protective measures, while 9 cases (47.37%) did not take safety precautions. Thirteen cases (61.90%) had no travel history to areas with reported monkeypox cases during the 21 days before symptom onset. The predominant manifestation was exanthem (100%, 21/21), followed by fever (57.14%, 12/21) and lymphadenectasis (47.62%, 10/21). Among febrile cases, 50.00% (6/12) had low-grade fever (37.3‒38.0 ℃). All cases were identified through active medical consultation. The median interval from symptom onset to the first medical visit was 3 (2, 6) days, with a maximum interval of 14 days. The median interval from symptom onset to laboratory confirmation was 7 (5, 9) days. Six cases (28.57%) had two or more visits to the hospital, with bacterial infection being the primary initial diagnosis. ConclusionMonkeypox prevention and control efforts in a district of Chengdu City should prioritize MSM population and young and middle-aged adults aged 30 to <40 years. It is recommended to establish an integrated monkeypox epidemic prevention and control network by leveraging existing HIV/AIDS prevention and control network. Concurrently, accelerating the deployment of the national intelligent infectious disease monitoring and early warning front-end software will strengthen early detection capabilities and be beneficial for the overall effectiveness of epidemic prevention and control efforts.

After continuous development and improvement, lung transplantation has become the preferred means to treat a variety of benign end-stage lung diseases. However, the field of lung transplantation still faces many challenges, including shortage of donor resources, preservation and maintenance of donor lungs, and postoperative complications. Lung tissue samples removed after lung transplantation are excellent clinical resources for the study of benign end-stage lung disease and perioperative complications of lung transplantation. However, at present, the collection, storage and utilization of tissue samples after lung transplantation are limited to a single study, and unified technical specifications have not been formed. Based on the construction plan of the biobank for lung transplantation in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University, this study reviewed the practical experience in the collection, storage and utilization of lung transplant tissue samples in the aspects of ethical review, staffing, collection process, storage method, quality control and efficient utilization, in order to provide references for lung transplant related research.

Retinal vein occlusion-induced macular edema(RVO-ME)is a severe complication of retinal vein occlusion, known for its challenging treatment, persistence, and tendency to recur. Recent studies have demonstrated that combined therapy offers advantages over single therapy, effectively reducing macular edema, enhancing visual function, decreasing the frequency of treatments, lowering overall costs, and easing the patient's burden. This approach addresses the limitations of single treatment methods and has garnered significant clinical interest. This article reviews the current status and future prospects of combined treatments for RVO-ME.

Objective:To observe the effect of exercise-regulated miR-344g-5p on the fibrosis-related SMAD genes and transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) in the myocardia of mice modeling diabetes.Methods:Twenty-four male C57BL/6 mice (6-8 weeks old) were randomly divided into a control group ( n=12) and a type 2 diabetes group ( n=12). Each group was further divided into two subgroups based on exercise status to form a sedentary control group, an exercise control, a sedentary type 2 diabetes group and an exercise type 2 diabetes group with six mice in each subgroup. The control groups were fed a normal diet, while the type 2 diabetes groups were on a high-fat diet for 12 weeks. Type 2 diabetes was then induced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. Two weeks later, the exercise groups began 40 minutes of daily swimming training, five days a week for eight consecutive weeks. Right after that, their cardiac function was measured using a small animal ultrasound system and the derived ejection fraction (EF) and the maximal early (E) and late (A) transmitral velocities ratio (E/A ratio) in diastole. They were then sacrificed and myocardial tissue was resected and stained with Sirius red. The expression of miR-344g-5p in the myocardium was detected using quantitative polymerase chain reactions. The expression of phosphorylated SMAD3 (p-SMAD3) and TGF-β were assessed using western blotting. The Target Scan database was exploited to analyze whether there were predicted targets of miR-344g-5p and pro-fibrotic genes such as SMAD3, TGFBR2, COL1A2 and COL12A1, and to determine any correlations in the gene regulation. Results:After 22 weeks, the EF and E/A ratio in the sedentary type 2 diabetes group were (57.5±4.1)% and (1.4±0.3), respectively, both significantly lower than in the other groups. Myocardial collagen fibers in the sedentary type 2 diabetes group were significantly more abundant than in the sedentary control and exercise type 2 diabetes groups. And miR-344g-5p expression in the myocardia of the exercise type 2 diabetes group was significantly greater than that in the sedentary type 2 diabetes group. The expression of p-SMAD3 and TGF-β in the myocardia of the sedentary type 2 diabetes group was significantly higher than in the sedentary control and exercise type 2 diabetes groups. Target Scan analysis revealed that miR-344g-5p had potential binding sites with several fibrosis-related genes such as SMAD3, TGFBR2, COL1A2, and COL12A1. Based on the reduction in TGF-β and p-SMAD protein expression in the exercise type 2 diabetes group, it was hypothesized that miR-344g-5p may inhibit the post-transcriptional processes of those genes.Conclusions:Exercise promotes the recovery of diabetic cardiomyopathy by upregulating myocardial miR-344g-5p expression, which subsequently targets and suppresses p-SMAD3 and TGF-β protein expression, thereby reducing diabetic myocardial fibrosis.

Objective:To compare the effectiveness of sacral nerve electric stimulation (SNES) and sacral nerve magnetic stimulation (SNMS) in treating patients with refractory neurogenic bladder (NB).Methods:Forty-six patients with NB after a spinal cord or cauda equina injury were randomly divided into an SNMS group and an SNES group, each of 23. In addition to basic bladder intervention, the SNMS group was treated with SNMS in the sacral 3 (S3) nerve root area once a day for 21 minutes, 5 days a week for 4 weeks. The SNES group received 24h uninterrupted SNES treatment for 4 consecutive weeks. The bladder pressure-volume assessment indexes, voiding diary indexes, and scores on the Chinese version of the Simplified Health Assessment Scale (SF-Qualiveen) were compared between the two groups before and after 4 weeks of treatment.Results:After the treatment, the safe bladder capacity, average daily number of micturitions, average daily single micturition volume, average daily single maximum micturition volume, average daily number of catheterizations, and average daily single maximum catheterization volume of both groups had improved significantly. After the treatment, the maximum intravesical pressure of the bladder (storage period), bladder compliance, average daily single catheterization volume, and SF-Qua-liveen scores of the SNES group had improved significantly. And that group′s average safe bladder capacity, bladder compliance, daily number of micturitions and average daily single catheterization volume were significantly better than the SNMS group′s averages. The SNES group′s average maximum intravesical bladder pressure and average SF-Qualiveen score were also significantly better.Conclusion:Both SNMS and SNES can improve urine storage and voiding for those with refractory NB in the short term, but SNES is clinically more effective and better improves patients′ life quality.
