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.

This article presented the diagnosis and treatment of three patients from the first imported familial clustering of clonorchiasis in Shanghai Municipality, and evaluated the value of different stool examination methods in non-endemic areas of clonorchiasis. In February 2026, the first case of clonorchiasis in this family was confirmed, and subsequent epidemiological surveys revealed that four family members all had a history of traveling to Guangdong Province and consuming raw freshwater fish. Stool samples were collected from all four individuals and detected for Clonorchis sinensis eggs using both machine smear method and the modified Kato-Katz thick smear method. C. sinensis infection was detected among three individuals using the Kato-Katz method, with severe [20 448 eggs per gram (EPG)], moderate (2 376 EPG), and mild infections (960 EPG) identified, respectively, and no C. sinensis eggs were identified in the remaining one stool sample. In contrast, only one infection was detected with the machine smear method, resulting in a underdiagnosis rate of 66.67% (2/3). All three confirmed cases were cured following standardized therapy. This article indicates that imported familial clustering clonorchiasis cases are highly occult in non-endemic areas, and the machine smear method has a high risk of underdiagnosis during initial screening. A two-tier diagnostic model combining “machine smear method for initial screening + Kato-Katz method for confirmation” is recommended.

Against the backdrop of digital transformation in higher education, the traditional teaching model has become inadequate to meet the demands for cultivating new-quality nursing talents. Nursing ethics teaching confronts several dilemmas, such as unbalanced regional development, disconnection between theory and practice, scattered teaching resources, and fragmented knowledge points. With the iterative update of modern digital technologies, the knowledge graph, due to its structured, semantic, scalable, and multi-source integrative characteristics, offers a technological pathway to address these issues. Based on the construction foundation of the Ministry of Education’s first batch of virtual teaching and research platforms for humanistic nursing courses, the nursing ethics artificial intelligence(Al)course was developed around the“thinking-research-teaching-learning”framework. By strengthening ideological and political guidance, constructing a curriculum knowledge graph, and promoting the deep integration of humanistic care and professional knowledge,the course realized intelligent support for research,learning,and teaching. This innovative education model provides a replicable paradigm for cultivating outstanding nursing talents equipped with humanistic literacy, digital competence, and advanced ethical thinking, while also offering references for the digital transformation of higher nursing education.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the long-term cost-effectiveness of insulin degludec and insulin aspart (IDegAsp) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in China. METHODS A cost-effectiveness analysis was conducted from the perspective of the Chinese healthcare system, using the CORE diabetes model to simulate long-term (20-year) health and economic outcomes. Baseline cohort characteristics and treatment effect data were derived from the CREATE study. The prices of glucose- lowering drugs were obtained from medical insurance payment standards and the average winning bid prices in the follow-up round of the specialized centralized procurement for insulin, while the daily dosages were derived from the CREATE study. The costs of complications and utility values were obtained from published literature, with a discount rate of 5%. One-way sensitivity analysis, scenario analysis, and probabilistic sensitivity analysis were performed to verify the robustness of the results. RESULTS Patients switching from previous once-daily basal insulin regimens to IDegAsp therapy gained an incremental 0.190 quality-adjusted life year (QALY) with direct medical cost savings of 42 163.58 yuan. For those switching from premixed insulin therapies, IDegAsp treatment provided 0.130 incremental QALY and reduced direct healthcare costs by 41 129.11 yuan. The outcome was significantly influenced by the discount rate and the cost of complications. Probabilistic sensitivity analysis and scenario analysis confirmed the robustness of these findings. CONCLUSIONS Switching from previous daily basal insulin or premixed insulin regimens to IDegAsp in Chinese patients with T2DM can improve patients’ long-term health outcomes and achieve cost savings, making it a more cost-effective treatment option.

This research study focuses on addressing the limitations of current neuropathic pain(NP)treatments by developing a novel dual-target modulator,E0199,targeting both Nav1.7,Nay1.8,and Nay1.9 and Kv7 channels,a crucial regulator in controlling NP symptoms.The objective of the study was to synthesize a compound capable of modulating these channels to alleviate NP.Through an experimental design involving both in vitro and in vivo methods,E0199 was tested for its efficacy on ion channels and its therapeutic potential in a chronic constriction injury(CCI)mouse model.The results demonstrated that E0199 significantly inhibited Nav1.7,Nav1.8,and Nav1.9 channels with a particularly low half maximal inhibitory concentration(ICs0)for Nay1.9 by promoting sodium channel inactivation,and also effectively increased Kv7.2/73,Kv7.2,and Kv7.5 channels,excluding Kv7.1 by promoting potassium channel acti-vation.This dual action significantly reduced the excitability of dorsal root ganglion neurons and alle-viated pain hypersensitivity in mice at low doses,indicating a potent analgesic effect without affecting heart and skeletal muscle ion channels critically.The safety of E0199 was supported by neurobehavioral evaluations.Conclusively,E0199 represents a ground-breaking approach in NP treatment,showcasing the potential of dual-target small-molecule compounds in providing a more effective and safe thera-peutic option for NP.This study introduces a promising direction for the future development of NP therapeutics.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the mechanism and clinical manifestations of a case with complex structural variations involving chromosomes 5, 7, and 14, and assess the value of Chromosome conformation-based karyotyping (C-MoKa) for its diagnosis.
METHODS:
Two half-sibs by the same father presented at the First Hospital of Lanzhou University in December 2024 for severe multi-system abnormalities were selected as study subjects. Peripheral blood samples from the their parents were subjected to conventional chromosomal karyotyping analysis. The father was further analyzed using C-MoKa, while both siblings underwent copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq). This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Hospital (Ethics No.: LDYYSZLLKH2025-05).
RESULTS:
Conventional karyotype analysis indicated that the father has a karyotype of 46,XY,add(5)(p15.3). CNV-seq identified multiple chromosomal abnormalities in both siblings, including duplications and deletions of chromosomes 14 and 5. C-MoKa analysis further revealed a complex chromosomal structural variation involving chromosomes 5, 7, and 14 in the father. These variations were closely associated with the severe phenotypes noted in both children.
CONCLUSION
Complex chromosomal structural variations can lead to multi-system abnormalities and significantly impact reproductive health. Compared to conventional karyotyping, the C-MoKa technique has shown significant advantage in identifying such complex rearrangements. The combined application of multiple techniques can improve the accuracy of diagnosis, enabling genetic counseling for carriers to reduce their risk for producing further affected offspring.

10.Association between screen time and anxiety-depression symptoms and their comorbidity among middle school students in Taiyuan City
Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(7):980-984
Objective:
To investigate the association between screen time (ST) during leisure time and anxiety-depression symptoms among middle school students, so as to provide a basis for formulating relevant intervention measures.
Methods:
From November to December 2023, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 2 542 students from junior and senior high school in Taiyuan City. A self designed questionnaire, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7), and the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) were used to investigate ST and anxiety/depression symptoms among middle school students. The Logistic regression model was used to explore the association of ST with symptoms of anxiety and depression, as well as with anxiety and depression comorbiditles (CAD).
Results:
The detection rates of anxiety symptoms, depression symptoms, and CAD were 13.69%, 15.77%, and 10.11%, respectively. The median ST was 2.00 h/d [interquartile range ( IQR =2.38) for weekly averages], with 0.33 h/d ( IQR =1.67) on work days and 5.00 h/d ( IQR=5.50) on rest days. Logistic regression analysis indicated that the total ST of mobile phones during rest days ( OR =1.07, 1.10, 1.11) and the averages ST of mobile phones over a week ( OR = 1.20 , 1.22, 1.29), as well as the total ST of all screen types during rest days ( OR =1.04, 1.04, 1.05) and the averages ST of all screen types over a week ( OR =1.08, 1.09, 1.21) were positively correlated with anxiety symptoms, depression symptoms, and CAD (all P <0.01).
Conclusions
Among middle school students in Taiyuan City, screen time is positively correlated with symptoms of anxiety or depression and the comorbidity of anxiety and depression, especially smartphone screen time and weekend screen use. Therefore, measures should be implemented to reduce unnecessary screen time among middle school students, especially the use of mobile phones, in order to mitigate the occurrence of anxiety and depression.
