Objective:To explore the focus points and emotional tendencies of cancer patients regarding medical services from their free-form comments, and to analyze the elements of perceived medical service value by patients.Methods:A tertiary general hospital in Shanghai invited patients to evaluate inpatient services through the assessment module of a patient satisfaction management platform, which included open-ended questions in the patient satisfaction survey. This study extracted free-form comment texts from cancer patients regarding medical services collected from September 2022 to August 2023 from this platform, forming a corpus of patient opinions. A hybrid method combining manual coding and natural language processing techniques was used to conduct sentiment analysis and topic modeling on the free-form comment texts. Descriptive analysis was performed on the comment themes and emotions, and logistic regression analysis was used to explore the relationship between patient negative comments and patient satisfaction and loyalty.Results:A total of 10 446 comment texts provided by cancer patients were included. The most frequently targeted objects in the comments were nurses (2 223 cases), followed by doctors (1 125 cases) and nursing assistants (162 cases). The results of sentiment analysis showed that 7 058 patients made positive comments, 1 958 patients made negative comments, 1 114 patients made neutral comments, and 316 patients made mixed comments. The results of topic analysis showed that the five most frequently mentioned themes by cancer patients were humanistic care (1 327 times), information provision, communication, and education (589 times), diet (582 times), effectiveness of diagnosis and treatment (506 times), and medical staff responsibility (489 times). Logistic regression analysis showed that negative evaluations of humanistic care ( OR=0.306, P<0.001), professional technical level ( OR=0.425, P=0.010), information provision, communication, and education ( OR=0.475, P<0.001), and response to needs ( OR=0.412, P=0.026) were significantly associated with decreased patient satisfaction. Negative evaluations of humanistic care ( OR=0.407, P<0.001), professional technical level ( OR=0.466, P=0.009), and information provision, communication, and education ( OR=0.557, P<0.001) were significantly associated with decreased patient loyalty. Conclusions:Hospital managers should value the role of patient free-form comment texts in improving medical services and make full use of natural language processing techniques for information mining. In addition, the results of this study show that patient comments mainly involve the interpersonal and functional aspects of service, especially the interpersonal interactions, which are often the " critical moments" for patients to critically evaluate hospital services during their service experience.

Objectives:To investigate the predictive value of the hemoglobin to serum creatinine ratio(Hb/SCr)for all-cause mortality within 3 years after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI).Methods:A total of 687 STEMI patients who successfully underwent the first PCI at the Department of Cardiology,Gansu Provincial People's Hospital,from June 2016 to June 2020 were retrospectively enrolled.Patients were divided into survival and non-survival groups according to their vital status at 3 years post-PCI.Cox regression analysis was performed to identify predictive factors of all-cause mortality.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were constructed to evaluate the predictive value of Hb/SCr for all-cause mortality,and Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to compare cumulative survival rates between subgroups stratified by Hb/SCr levels.Results:The median follow-up duration was 37(25,50)months.Among the 663 patients(96.51%)with complete follow-up data,41 cases(6.18%)experiencing all-cause death.Multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that age(HR=1.086,95%CI:1.037-1.137,P=0.000),body mass index(HR=1.195,95%CI:1.128-1.266,P=0.000),fasting blood glucose(HR=1.069,95%CI:1.007-1.135,P=0.030),fibrinogen(HR=1.418,95%CI:1.120-1.795,P=0.004),TIMI flow grade 1(HR=4.968,95%CI:1.194-20.667,P=0.028),TIMI flow grade 2(HR=3.861,95%CI:1.336-11.156,P=0.013),and Hb/SCr(HR=0.858,95%CI:0.766-0.961,P=0.008)were the independent predictors of all-cause mortality.ROC curve analysis demonstrated that the area under the curve(AUC)of Hb/SCr was 0.721(95%CI:0.645-0.798)for predicting all-cause mortality,with a sensitivity of 65.9%and specificity of 71.2%,at the optimal cut-offvalue of 16.627.Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that patients with Hb/SCr<16.627 had significantly lower survival rates than those with Hb/SCr≥16.627(log-rank P=0.000).Conclusions:Hb/SCr is an independent predictor of 3-year all-cause mortality in STEMI patients after PCI and this indicator could be used as risk stratification parameter and patients with lower Hb/SCr might benefit comprehensive post-PCI management to improve their outcome.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of inflammatory and nutritional indices for postoperative survival of elderly patients with esophageal squamous carcinoma.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 130 elderly patients with esophageal squamous carcinoma who were admitted to Sichuan Cancer Hospital from January 2019 to April 2020 were collected. There were 102 males and 28 females, aged (70±4)years. Mea-surement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3) or M(range). Count data were expressed as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Receiver opera-ting characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted. The area under the curve (AUC) and optimal cut-off values were calculated. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot survival curves, and the Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. The COX proportional hazard regression model was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. Results:(1) Postoperative survival of elderly patients with esophageal squamous carcinoma predicted by inflammatory and multitional indices. Results of ROC curves analysis showed that the best cut-off values of preoperative systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and prognostic nutrition index (PNI) for predicting postoperative survival of elderly patients with esophageal squamous carcinoma were 470.71×10 9/L, 1.11, 2.07, 136.24, and 46.28, respectively. (2) Risk factors analysis of postoperative survival of elderly patients with esophageal squamous carcinoma. Results of multivariate analysis showed that preoperative SII ≥470.71×10 9/L, preoperative SIRI ≥1.11, preoperative PNI<46.28, score of preoperative patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA) ≥4, postoperative pathological stage Ⅳ and post-operative complications were independent risk factors for the overall survival time of elderly patients with esophageal squamous carcinoma ( hazard ratio=3.30, 2.50, 0.36, 4.86, 1.57, 1.97, 95% confidence interval as 1.10?9.88, 1.07?5.88, 0.16?0.81, 1.13?20.87, 1.20?2.06, 1.02?3.82, P<0.05). (3) Follow-up. All the 130 patients were followed up for 39(range, 1?60)months. Of the 130 patients, 81 cases survived, 49 cases died, and the median overall survival time was not reached. The 1- and 3-year survival rates of the 130 patients were 83.85% and 54.62%, respectively. ① The median overall survival time was 25(0,43)months for patients with SII ≥470.71×10 9/L, and unreached for patients with SII <470.71×10 9/L, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=60.59, P<0.05). ② The median overall survival time was 26(0,44)months for patients with SIRI ≥1.11, and unreached for patients with SIRI <1.11, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=45.57, P<0.05). ③ The median overall survival time was unreached for patients with PNI ≥46.28, and 38(0,47)months for patients with PNI <46.28, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=12.53, P<0.05). ④ The median overall survival time was unreached for patients with PG-SGA <4 and ≥4, showing a signifi-cant difference between them ( χ2=14.41, P<0.05). ⑤ The median overall survival time was 25(1,47)months for patients in pathological stage Ⅲ, 12(1,32)months for patients in stage Ⅳ, and unreached for patients in stage 0, Ⅰ, Ⅱ, respectively, showing a significant difference among them ( χ2=58.75, P<0.05). ⑥ The median overall survival time was 33(1,47)months for patients with postoperative complication, and unreached for patients without postoperative complication, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=14.27, P<0.05). Conclusions:Preoperative SII, SIRI and PNI have good predictive value for postoperative survival in elderly patients with esophageal squamous carcinoma. Preoperative SII ≥470.71×10 9/L, preoperative SIRI ≥1.11, preoperative PNI <46.28, score of preoperative PG-SGA ≥4, postoperative pathological stage Ⅳ, and postoperative complications are independent risk factors for the overall survival time of elderly patients with esophageal squamous carcinoma. Patients with preoperative SII <470.71×10 9/L, preoperative SIRI <1.11, preoperative PNI >46.28, score of preoperative PG-SGA <4, postoperative pathological stage 0, Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and non post-operative complications have better survival.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the prevalence of malnutrition in elderly patients with diabetes.Methods:A total of eight databases, namely PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), and VIP Database, were systematically searched for cross-sectional studies on malnutrition in elderly diabetic patients published from the inception of the databases to September 13, 2023. Two researchers independently conducted literature screening, data extraction, and quality assessment. Data analysis was performed using Stata 16.0 software.Results:A total of 22 studies were included, involving 6 349 elderly diabetic patients. Results of the meta-analysis showed that the overall prevalence of malnutrition in elderly patients with diabetes was 32.3% (95% CI: 0.21 to 0.43), and the prevalence of at-risk of malnutrition was 49.0% (95% CI: 0.31 to 0.67). Subgroup analysis showed that the prevalence of malnutrition in elderly diabetic patients with chronic complications (56.8%) was significantly higher than those without chronic complications (21.9%). Inpatients also showed a higher prevalence compared with outpatients and community (44.4%, 29.0%, and 18.5%, respectively). The prevalence of malnutrition as per mini-nutritional assessment scale was higher than that as per mini-nutritional assessment short-form scale (35.8% vs. 23.3%, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the prevalence of malnutrition in elderly diabetic patients of different genders ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The prevalence of malnutrition and at-risk of malnutrition in elderly diabetic patients is high. In clinical practice, we should not only strengthen the early diagnosis of malnutrition in patients, but also emphasize the screening of malnutrition risk, implement timely corresponding interventions, and promote patient education on nutrition and health, to improve the prognosis and quality of life in elderly diabetes patients.

Objective To evaluate the potential clinical value of T2 mapping and mDixon Quant in the diagnosis of early interver-tebral disc degeneration.Methods A total of 79 volunteers who underwent lumbar MRI examination were enrolled.All subjects were examined for 3.0T MR with T2WI,T2 mapping,and mDixon Quant while recording the condition of low back pain.The differ-ences between T2 mapping(map)value and fat fraction(FF)values of the vertebral(V)and nucleus pulposus(NP)within the Pfir-rmann Ⅰ and Pfirrmann Ⅱ intervertebral disc(grade Ⅰ 76,grade Ⅱ 87)were statistically analyzed.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analyses were performed for meaningful parameters.Results V-FF showed a mild positive correlation with degenera-tive intervertebral disc lesions,and NP-FF and NP-map values showed a mild negative correlation with lesions.There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in V-FF(P＜0.001),NP-FF(P=0.005),and NP-map(P＜0.001).Some measure-ments had statistically significant differences when different intervertebral disc segments were compared.Conclusion V-FF,NP-FF,and NP-map are associated with intervertebral disc degeneration.T2 mapping and mDixon Quant are potentially valuable as diagnostic tools to quantitatively assess early intervertebral disc degeneration and help diagnose.
