Objective:To explore the dual mediating effects of health belief and depression among health knowledge, social support, and health behaviors based on the capacity, opportunity, motivation-behavior (COM-B) model, and analyze the influencing factors of health behaviors in patients with ischemic stroke.Methods:This multi-center cluster sampling research recruited ischemic stroke patients ( n=1 696) who were hospitalized in neurology departments of five tertiary hospitals in Henan Province from October 2023 to October 2024. A cross-sectional investigation was conducted using the general information questionnaire, social support rating scale (SSRS), stroke prevention knowledge questionnaire(SPKQ), short form health belief model scale(SF-HBMS), health promoting lifestyle profile-Ⅱ (HPLP-Ⅱ), and patient health questionnaire-9(PHQ-9) to ultimately reveal the pathways and effect sizes among variables. Partial correlation analysis and multiple linear stepwise regression analysis were conducted to examine the relationships among social support, health knowledge, health belief, health behaviors, and depression in stroke patients by SPSS 26.0 software. Structural equation modeling was constructed using AMOS 28.0 software, and the mediating effect was tested using the Bootstrap method. Results:The scores of social support, health knowledge, health belief, and health behaviors among ischemic stroke patients were (37.46±9.94), (26.56±6.84), (75.62±12.62) and (130.79±26.27), respectively. The score of depression was 5.00 (2.00, 8.00). Health behaviors were positively correlated with health knowledge, social support, and health belief( r=0.333, 0.246, 0.267, all P<0.05), while negatively correlated with depression ( r=-0.146, P<0.05). Multiple linear stepwise regression analysis showed that health knowledge, social support, health belief, and depression were all influencing factors of health behaviors in ischemic stroke patients (all P<0.05). Health belief (effect value=0.068, 95% CI=0.048-0.093) and depression (effect value=0.009, 95% CI=0.003-0.018) both played partial mediating roles between health knowledge and health behaviors, accounting for 17.3%(0.077/0.446) of the total effect. Meanwhile, health belief (effect value=0.045, 95% CI=0.029-0.063) and depression (effect value=0.016, 95% CI=0.008-0.027) both played partial mediating roles between social support and health behaviors, accounting for 26.5%(0.061/0.230) of the total effect. Conclusion:Health knowledge and social support can not only directly influence health behaviors but also indirectly affect them through health belief and depression in patients with ischemic stroke.

Objective:To analyze the evolution of ceftazidime/avibactam (CZA) resistance phenotyes and clinical features of 11 ST11-KL64 carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) isolates carrying bla KPC. Methods:Eleven CRKP isolates, designated K01 to K11, obtained from infected liver transplant patients from June to September 2024 were retrospectively studied. Broth microdilution method, whole genome sequencing (WGS) and plasmid conjugation assays were employed to investigate the antimicrobial susceptibility, resistance mechanisms, and genetic structural characteristics of these CRKP isolates. Clinical data were simultaneously collected and organized to analyze the correlation between bla KPC gene mutations and the clinical efficacy of antimicrobial therapy. Results:All eleven isolates of CRKP exhibited multidrug resistance phenotypes. Among them, K01-K09 and K11 were sensitive to CZA and resistant to carbapenems, while K10 was resistant to CZA and displayed sensitivity or intermediate resistance to carbapenems. WGS analysis showed that all 11 CRKP isolates belonged to the ST11-KL64 clonal type. Among these isolates, the K01-K09 and K11 isolates carry the bla KPC-2 gene, whereas the K10 isolate carries the bla KPC-33 gene. A single nucleotide mutation in bla KPC-2 (G532T) resulted in a substitution of tyrosine (Y) for aspartic acid (D) at Ambler position 179 (D179Y), causing resistance of CRKP to CZA and reduced sensitivity to Imipenem and Meropenem. The conjugative plasmid was successfully constructed, and compared to the parental strain, its minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) to CZA increased 32 folds. Clinical data revealed that the patient developed the bla KPC-33 mutation after 51 days of CZA treatment. Conclusions:The bla KPC-33 mutation following CZA treatment for CRKP infection exhibits a considerable delay. It is essential to dynamically monitor the evolution of CRKP resistance to ensure timely adjustment of therapeutic strategies in case of the occurrence of mutations such as bla KPC-33.

Objective:To explore the latent profile types of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior in stroke patients and analyze the influencing factors of different latent profiles.Methods:From January to October 2023, totally 596 stroke patients from the Neurology Department of five ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Henan Province were selected by stratified random sampling. The patients were surveyed using a general information questionnaire, the Stroke Prevention Knowledge Questionnaire (SPKQ), the Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS), the WHO's Quality of Life Questionnaire- Brief Version (WHOQOL-BREF), the Short Form Health Belief Model Scale (SF-HBMS), and the Health Promoting Lifestyle ProfileⅡ (HPLPⅡ). Latent profile analysis was used to classify the capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior characteristics of stroke patients, and multiple logistic regression was conducted to explore the influencing factors of different latent profiles.Results:Three latent profiles of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior in stroke patients were identified, including low capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with high health beliefs (32.4%, 193/596), moderate capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with insufficient health beliefs (47.5%, 283/596), and high capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with lack of social support (20.1%, 120/596). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that educational level, smoking history, family history, body mass index, and Charlson Comorbidity Index score were influencing factors of different latent profiles ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Stroke patients exhibit distinct classifications of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior. Targeted interventions should be conducted based on the characteristics of each category to improve health behavior management outcomes in patients.

Objective:To explore the mediating effect of rumination between self-perceived burden (SPB) and stigma in stroke patients, so as to provide theoretical basis for the development of targeted nursing interventions in clinical practice.Methods:In September 2022, cluster sampling was used to select 1 126 stroke patients admitted to Department of Neurology of five ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Henan Province as subjects. General Information Questionnaire, Self-Perceived Burden Scale (SPBS), Stroke Stigma Scale (SSS), and Chinese Version of Event Related Rumination Inventory (C-ERRI) were used to investigate stroke patients. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between SPB, rumination, and stigma. AMOS 28.0 software was used to establish the structural equation model, and Bootstrap method was used to test the mediating effect.Results:A total of 1 126 questionnaires were distributed, and 1 026 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 91.12% (1 026/1 126). SPBS score of 1 026 stroke patients was (28.68±8.32), the SSS score was (40.53±9.48) and the C-ERRI score was (25.43±12.62). Pearson correlation analysis showed that SPB in stroke patients was positively correlated with stigma and rumination ( P<0.01), and rumination was positively correlated with stigma ( P<0.01). Bootstrap mediating effect test showed that rumination partially mediated the relationship between SPB and stigma in stroke patients, accounting for 55.15% of the total effect. Conclusions:SPB of stroke patients both directly affect stigma and indirectly affect stigma through rumination. Clinical nursing workers should promptly evaluate patients' SPB, pay attention to the mediating role of rumination, develop effective psychological intervention programs, implement personalized and targeted nursing measures, relieve patients' stigma, and improve treatment and rehabilitation compliance.

Objective:To understand the research status and hotspots in the field of stroke health management at home and abroad, and to provide insights for stroke health management research in China.Methods:Relevant literature on stroke health management published between 2013 and 2023 was retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases. CiteSpace 6.1.R6 was used for the visual analysis of the number of publications, authors, institutions, countries, and keywords.Results:A total of 382 relevant articles were included, with 169 in English and 213 in Chinese. The number of publications on stroke health management showed a fluctuating upward trend. Research hotspots and frontiers in stroke health management mainly focused on telemedicine, big data and "Internet+", primary and secondary prevention, risk prediction models, quality of life, and swallowing disorders. Future research trends may focus on management models for post-stroke swallowing disorders, risk identification, and the role of caregivers in remote rehabilitation interventions.Conclusions:Researchers can refer to the research hotspots and trends shown by the visual analysis, with particular attention to health management models for patients with post-stroke swallowing disorders and issues related to remote intervention rehabilitation.

Objective To construct the etoposide (VP-16)combined with cisplatin (DDP) chemotherapy scheme (EP chemotherapy scheme)resistant small cell lung cancer (SCLC)cell line H446/EP and to identify the drug resistance characteristics and explore the mechanism.Methods NCI-H446 cells were treated with increasing concentrations of VP-16 and DDP to construct an H446/EP cell line.H446/EP and NCI-H446 cells were used as the research objects.The cell viability was detected by MTT assay,and the resistance index (RI)of H446/EP cells was calculated.Cell cloning assay and Incucyte cell proliferation (label-free)assay were used to detect cell proliferation ability.Transcriptome sequencing was performed to analyze the enrichment of differentially expressed genes (DEGs)in the 2 cell lines.Western blotting was applied to detect the protein expression levels of drug resistance,DNA damage repair (DDR),and autophagy markers.Results MTT assay showed that the resistance index (RI)of H446/EP cells to VP-16,DDP,and DOX were 6.14,3.43,and 1.96,respectively.The results of cell cloning assay and Incucyte cell proliferation assay indicated that the proliferation ability was significantly higher in the H446/EP cells than the NCI-H446 cells (P<0.01).Transcriptome sequencing and pathway enrichment analysis displayed that the DEGs between H446/EP and NCI-H446 cells were enriched in tumor chemoresistance,DDR,and autophagy pathways.Western blot results showed the expression levels of MRP1,BCRP,RAD51,γ-H2AX,and LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ were significantly increased,and that of p62 was obviously decreased in the H446/EP cells when compared with the NCI-H446 cells (P<0.05).Conclusion An EP chemotherapy-resistant H446/EP cell line is successfully constructed.Stronger proliferation ability,increased expression of efflux transporters,and enhanced DDR and autophagy may be the mechanisms of the resistance of SCLC to EP chemotherapy scheme.

Abstract: Objective To compare the diagnostic efficacy of the upgraded version of the GeneXpert automated fluorescent quantitative PCR system (GeneXpert MTB/RIF Ultra, GeneXpert Ultra) and the original version of the GeneXpert system (GeneXpert MTB/RIF, Xpert), real-time fluorescent quantitative nucleic acid detection (FQ-PCR), real-time fluorescent thermostatic amplification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis RNA (SAT-RNA), real-time fluorescent thermostatic amplification detection of DNA (thermostatic amplification method) and traditional BACTEC MGIT 960 liquid culture (culture method) for special specimens of tuberculosis, in order to analyze its application value in clinical detection. Methods Using prospective research methods, a total of 170 special specimens (including 47 pleural and ascites effusion samples, and 34 24-hour urinary sediment specimens, 49 tissue specimens and 40 fester specimens) were collected i'an Chest Hospital from January to September 2021. GeneXpert Ultra, Xpert, FQ-PCR, SAT-RNA, isothermal amplification, and traditional culture were used for detection. Clinical diagnosis was used as the standard, and sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, coincidence rate, and Kappa value were compared among the methods. Results The sensitivities of GeneXpert Ultra, Xpert, FQ-PCR, SAT-RNA, isothermal amplification, and traditional culture were 65.18% (73/112), 49.11% (55/112), 37.50% (42/112), 19.64% (22/112), 8.04% (9/112), and 22.32% (25/112), respectively. The sensitivity of GeneXpert Ultra was higher than that of the other five methods, and the differences were statistically significant (χ2=66.25, 42.10, 28.89, 13.09, 4.92, 15.18, all P<0.05). GeneXpert Ultra result analysis showed that: 5.48%(4/73) cases had trace, that is, trace Mycobacterium tuberculosis load, 79.45% (58/73) cases were extremely low, 10.96% (8/73) cases were low, 2.74% (2/73) were medium, , and 1.36% (1/73) were high load. In 4 trace samples, the Xpert detection was negative for all. Of the 73 GeneXpert Ultra positive reports, 63 were rifampicin-sensitive, 6 were rifampicin-resistant, and 4 were rifampicin-resistant but of unclear resistance. Of the 55 Xpert positive reports, 45 were rifampicin-sensitive, 2 were rifampicin-resistant, and 8 were rifampicinresistant but of unclear resistance.. Conclusions The new generation of GeneXpert MTB/RIF Ultra has high sensitivity, specificity and drug resistance detection rate, and its advantage is even more apparent in the pathogenic diagnosis of special specimens of tuberculosis. It can be used as one of the preferred methods in samples with low bacterial load.
