BackgroundSevere mental disorders are characterized by high recurrence rate， high disability rate， high rates of harmful incidents， and low treatment-seeking rate， with affected patients demonstrating increased frequencies of dangerous behaviors. Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region has implemented community management for patients with severe mental disorders across the region since 2004， while the current status and regional characteristics of the managed patients remain unclear. ObjectiveTo analyze the current status of management and treatment of patients with severe mental disorders in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region， and to explore their regional distribution characteristics， so as to provide references for optimizing regional prevention and control strategies. MethodsPatients with severe mental disorders diagnosed and registered in the Severe Mental Disorder Management Information Platform of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region from August 1， 2011 to December 31， 2021 were selected. Patients' basic information， management indicators， and treatment metrics were extracted from the platform， followed by descriptive statistical analysis of the corresponding data. ResultsAs of December 31， 2021， the permanent resident population of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region was 6 946 540， with 29 787 registered patients with severe mental disorders. The majority of the patients were female （50.25%）， aged 18-59 years （79.01%）， with educational level of junior high school or below （84.63%）， married （52.87%）， farmers （56.01%）， and diagnosed with schizophrenia （55.91%）， while ethnic minority patients accounted for a relatively high proportion （31.35%）. In 2021， the reported prevalence rate of severe mental disorders in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region was 0.43%， with standardized management and regular medication adherence rates at 90.39% and 66.34%， respectively. The standardized management rate in 8 counties/districts （36.36%） was lower than the average level of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region， while 10 counties/districts （45.45%） showed below-average medication adherence rates， of which 6 counties/districts（60.00%） were located in the south-central region. ConclusionPatients with severe mental disorders in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region are predominantly young and middle-aged adults with low level of education， and those in the central-southern region demonstrate lower medication adherence. ［Funded by Key Research and Development Program Project of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region （number， 2023BEG02029）］

Objective To develop a virtual reality rehabilitation support system and evaluate its effects on improving discharge readiness in caregivers of laryngectomy patients.Methods The system is equipped with a virtual reality-based home nursing skills guidance module for post-laryngectomy patients and an evidence-based artificial intelligence Q&A module.A convenience sampling method was adopted to select 64 caregivers of patients who underwent laryngectomy for the first time in the otorhinolaryngology head and neck surgery department of a tertiary A hospital in Beijing from July 2024 to January 2025 for a systematic study on application effects.To avoid cross-contamination between an experimental group and a control group,ward-based grouping was applied.A coin toss was used to assign Ward 1 to an experimental group and Ward 2 to a control group,with 32 cases in each group.The experimental group received discharge guidance based on the virtual reality technology,while the control group was provided with conventional verbal and written discharge instructions.The readiness for hospital discharge and the quality of discharge teaching scores of caregivers were compared between the 2 groups after the intervention.Results No sample detachment.After the intervention,the patient caregivers in the experimental group scored significantly higher than those in the control group in terms of discharge readiness and quality of discharge guidance,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.001).Conclusion This study developed the virtual reality rehabilitation system for laryngeal cancer patients demonstrated good feasibility and effectiveness.The application of this system for discharge education significantly improved discharge readiness of caregivers and quality of discharge guidance for post-laryngectomy patients.It also helped with the optimization of health education models,enhancement of nursing resource utilization efficiency,and improvement of transitional care.

Objective To understand the clinical applicability and implementation of expert consensus on the implementation and removal of protective restraints in psychiatry,and to provide references for promoting the standardized practice of psychiatric protective restraints and updating the consensus.Methods By the convenience sampling method,a questionnaire survey was conducted among nurses from 480 hospitals in 30 provinces from June 15 to July 15,2024.The survey was conducted using the instrument for evaluating clinical applicability of guide-lines(version 2.0)and a self-compiled questionnaire on the clinical implementation of the restraint consensus.Results A total of 7,844 valid questionnaires were collected,with a valid questionnaire recovery rate of 93.78％.The results of clinical applicability scoring showed that the consensus had the lowest availability score(64.72％)and the highest acceptability score(76.74％).The results showed that nurses' receiving training and the level of their hospitals were the main influencing factors for scores in various dimensions(P＜0.05).4,774 participants(87.42％)believed that the application of consensus could enhance the standardization of nurses' restraint operations.The safety rate of the restraint consensus was 79.51％,and the economic ratio was 76.87％.Among the evaluators,1,739(22.17％)believed that there were implementation obstacles in the consensus.Conclusion The clinical applicability of the consensus is relatively good,and the application of the consensus helps to improve the standardization of clinical operations.In the future,efforts should be made to strengthen the promotion and training of the consensus,develop hierarchical promotion strategies according to the characteristics of medical institutions,and improve the quality of evidence for the consensus,so as to further enhance the clinical application effect of the consensus.

Objective:To assess respondents' understanding of the items in the Neck Dissection Impairment Index (NDII) through cognitive interviews and to revise the items accordingly.Methods:Totally 30 postoperative neck dissection patients returning for follow-up at Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University from November 2023 to February 2024, were selected by purposive sampling for two rounds of cognitive interviews. Based on the interview results, the Chinese version of the NDII was revised.Results:The Chinese version of the NDII included ten items. The first round of interviews identified issues such as "incomplete expression, abstract language, and written form, " leading to revisions of five items. The second round of interviews showed that all respondents understood the revised items, and no new suggestions for modification were made.Conclusions:Cognitive interviews can improve respondents' comprehension of the Chinese version of the NDII, identify cognitive biases caused by cultural differences and improper linguistic expressions during the translation process, and enhance the understanding and acceptance of the scale's content among the target population.

Objective:To analyze the fail mode of neoadjuvant therapy combined with surgery for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) after long-term follow-up.Methods:Clinical data of consecutive 238 patients with locally advanced resectable ESCC who underwent neoadjuvant therapy combined with surgery in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from September 2012 to October 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The failure mode in the whole cohort was analyzed after long-term follow-up. The overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS) rates were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method. Survival differences were determined by log-rank test.Results:The pathological complete response (pCR) rate was 42.0% in 238 patients. After a median follow-up of 46.1 months, tumor progression occurred in 96 patients (40.3%), including 25 patients (10.5%) with local recurrence, 61 patients (25.6%) with distant metastases, and 10 patients (4.2%) with simultaneous local recurrence and distant metastases. The median OS and DFS were 64.7 months and 49.9 months. And the 3-, 5-, and 7-year OS and DFS rates were 70.0%, 52.8%, 36.4% and 63.5%, 42.5%, and 30.0%, respectively. The 3-, 5-, and 7-year locoregional recurrence-free survival rates and distant metastasis-free survival rates were 86.0%, 71.4%, 61.2% and 70.6%, 55.9%, 43.0%. Compared with non-pCR patients, the overall progression rate and distant metastasis rate of pCR patients were lower (26.0% vs. 50.7%, 16.0% vs. 32.6%, both P<0.05). And the 3-, 5-, and 7-year OS (83.0% vs. 60.2%, 69.7% vs. 41.7%, 50.4% vs. 27.7%, all P<0.001) and DFS rates (80.4% vs. 51.4%, 63.9% vs. 31.2%, 45.9% vs. 20.3%, all P<0.001) were significantly better in pCR patients. Conclusions:Distant metastasis is the main failure mode of patients with locally advanced ESCC after neoadjuvant therapy. Patients with postoperative pCR can achieve better long-term survival.

Objective:To compare the recovery effect of continuous infusion of dexmedetomidine combined with oxycodone or sufentanil in the anesthesia intensive care unit (AICU) in elderly patients after thoracoscopic radical surgery for lung cancer.Methods:Using the method of prospective study, 80 elderly lung cancer patients underwent selective thoracoscopic radical surgery under general anesthesia in Nanjing First Hospital from February 2021 to May 2022 were selected. The patients were divided into dexmedetomidine combined with sufentanil group (S group) and dexmedetomidine combined with oxycodone group (Q group) by random digits table method with 40 cases each group. On the basis of routine monitoring and treatment after operation, the patients in Q group were continuously injected with oxycodone 0.03 mg/(kg·h) and dexmedetomidine 0.4 μg/(kg·h) through analgesia pump, the patients in S group were continuously injected with sufentanil 0.03 mg/(kg·h) and dexmedetomidine 0.4 μg/(kg·h) through analgesia pump. The wake-up time, extubation time, awakening quality (Aldrete score and bucking score) and comfort level (Bruggrmann comfort scale score, BCS score) after entering the AICU were record; the sedation score (Ramsay score) and pain relief score (numerical rating scale score, NRS score) and hemodynamic changes (mean arterial pressure and heart rate) 3, 5, 7, 10 and 14 h after entering the AICU were record; the level of serum inflammatory factors, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP) immediately, 5 h and 14 h after entering the AICU; press times of analgesia pump, adverse events, bleeding volume of drainage tube during AICU and overall satisfaction score when leaving the AICU were record.Results:The bucking score in Q group was significantly lower than that in S group: (1.02 ± 0.77) scores vs. (1.88 ± 0.34) scores, the Aldrete score and BCS score were significantly higher than those in S group: (8.93 ± 0.25) scores vs. (5.97 ± 0.32) scores and (3.03 ± 0.32) scores vs. (0.93 ± 0.52) scores, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); there were no statistical difference in wake-up time and extubation time between two groups ( P>0.05). There were no statistical difference Ramassy score, NRS score 3 and 5 h after entering the AICU, mean arterial pressure and heart rate between two groups ( P>0.05); the Ramassy score 7, 10 and 14 h after entering the AICU in Q group was significantly lower than that in S group, the NRS score, mean arterial pressure and heart rate were significantly lower than those in S group, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). There were no statistical differences in TNF-α, IL-6 and CRP immediately after entering the AICU between two groups ( P>0.05); the TNF-α, IL-6 and CRP 5 and 14 h after entering the AICU in Q group were significantly lower than those in S group, and there were statistical difference ( P<0.01). The press times of analgesia pump, bleeding volume of drainage tube and the incidences of nausea vomiting, respiratory depression, lethargy, restlessness, fever and lung infection in Q group were significantly lower than those in S group: (4.63 ± 1.10) times vs. (18.80 ± 1.54) times, (129.67 ± 4.14) ml vs. (164.00 ± 8.14) ml, 10.0% (4/40) vs. 52.5% (21/40), 2.5% (1/40) vs. 25.0% (10/40), 7.5% (3/40) vs. 47.5% (19/40), 0 vs. 20.0% (8/40), 2.5% (1/40) vs. 22.5% (9/40) and 2.5% (1/40) vs. 20.0% (8/40), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01 or <0.05); there was no severe hypotension, severe bradycardia and delirium in both groups. The overall satisfaction score in Q group was significantly higher than that in S group: (3.53 ± 0.63) scores vs. (2.70 ± 0.65) scores, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Continuous micro-pump infusion of dexmedetomidine combined with oxycodone in AICU elderly patients with lung cancer after thoracoscopic radical surgery can significantly improve the quality of recovery and comfort during extubation, without affecting the extubation time, and can effectively reduce the degree of pain, stress and inflammatory reaction in the early recovery period, and reduce the incidence of adverse events after surgery.

Objective:To translate the Glaucoma Symptom Scale (GSS) into Chinese, and to test its reliability and validity.Methods:Following the Brislin questionnaire translation principles, GSS was translated, back-translated and culturally adapted, and the Chinese version of GSS was formed. From January 2021 to June 2022, a total of 210 glaucoma patients in Ophthalmology Outpatient and Inpatient Department of Class Ⅲ Grade A hospitals in Hefei were enrolled as the research objects by the convenience sampling method. The items of the Chinese version of GSS were screened by correlation coefficient method, critical ratio method and Cronbach's α coefficient. The reliability of the Chinese version of GSS was tested using Cronbach's α coefficient, split-half reliability and test-retest reliability. The validity of the GSS was evaluated by content validity and construct validity. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive ability of the Chinese version of GSS, and to determine the sensitivity, specificity and the most appropriate critical value of GSS. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between the total score of GSS and the score of each item. A total of 210 questionnaires were distributed in this study, and 205 were effectively received, with an effective recovery rate of of 97.62% (205/210) .Results:A total of 2 common factors were extracted by exploratory factor analysis, and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 50.64%. With clinician's diagnosis as the gold standard, the area under the curve of the Chinese version of GSS was 0.916 (95% CI: 0.886-0.947, P<0.01). The optimal critical score of the scale was 73, and the sensitivity and specificity were 85.2% and 87.3%. The concordant Kappa value of the two diagnostic results was 0.749 ( P<0.01). The Cronbach's α coefficient, split-half reliability and test-retest reliability of the Chinese version of GSS were 0.812, 0.781 and 0.912, respectively. Conclusions:The Chinese version of the GSS has good reliability and validity, and is suitable for the screening of glaucoma patients in China.
