Objective To explore the temporal characteristics and correlation between active exercise rehabilitation behaviour and related symptoms in middle-aged chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)patients,and to provide a basis for constructing a full cycle precision rehabilitation management system.Methods The ecological momentary assessment method was used to select 63 middle-aged COPD patients from the respiratory and critical care medicine department of a tertiary comprehensive hospital in Wuhan from October 15 to December 1,2024,using convenience sampling.Their active exercise rehabilitation behaviour(number of exercise projects,duration)and related symptoms(dyspnea,fatigue,anxiety)were continuously monitored for a week by using baseline survey,daily active exercise rehabilitation behavior assessment questionnaire,daily symptom assessment questionnaire.A multi-layer linear model was used to analyze the dynamic correlation between active exercise rehabilitation behaviour and symptoms.Results 58 patients were included.During the 1-week ecological momentary assessment,the system triggered a total of 1,218 momentary assessments and obtained 1,120 valid responses(with the valid response rate of 91.95％),with patients completing an average of(2.76±0.39)assessments per day.Multilevel linear models showed that momentary dyspnoea,fatigue,anxiety symptoms and baseline kinesiophobia all significantly negatively influenced active exercise rehabilitation behaviour(P＜0.05).Conclusion There are dynamic changes in the active exercise rehabilitation behaviour and related symptoms of middle-aged COPD patients.Nursing staff should establish a precise rehabilitation intervention system based on symptom fluctuations,strengthen patient self-management efficiency through dynamic monitoring and hierarchical management,and achieve long-term optimization of lung rehabilitation effects.

Objective To explore predictive factors of severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) complicated with respiratory failure (RF) and to develop and internally validate a clinical prediction model. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 350 patients with severe CAP admitted to Tianyou Hospital Affiliated to Wuhan University of Science and Technology from September 2022 to December 2024. Patients were randomly divided into a training set (n＝245) and a validation set (n＝105) in a 7∶3 ratio, and further categorized into RF and non-RF groups. LASSO regression was applied to optimize variable selection. Multivariate logistic analysis was used to construct the prediction model, followed by internal validation. Results Univariate regression analysis identified male, hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease, age, CURB-65 score, white blood cell count, neutrophil count, C-reactive protein (CRP), serum amyloid A, procalcitonin, and hospital stay as risk factors for RF in severe CAP, while albumin level was a protective factor. LASSO regression selected CURB-65 score, albumin level, and CRP for inclusion in the final model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.903 in the training set and 0.919 in the validation set. Calibration curve analysis demonstrated excellent agreement between predicted and observed probabilities in both sets, and Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit tests indicated no significant deviations. Threshold probabilities ranged from 0.01 to 0.99 in both training and validation sets. Conclusions CURB-65 score, albumin level, and CRP are independent predictors of RF in severe CAP. The clinical prediction model based on these factors exhibits strong discrimination, calibration, goodness-of-fit, and clinical utility.

To analyze the ethnic differences in the genotype distribution of thalassemia between the Han and Li ethnic groups in the Qiongnan region (southern Hainan). A cross-sectional study employing a stratified multistage sampling method was conducted from January 2019 to December 2023. A total of 4 493 high-risk individuals (2 734 Han and 1 759 Li) from southern Hainan (including Sanya, Ledong, Baoting, Lingshui, and other counties) underwent thalassemia genetic testing. The genotype distribution was statistically analyzed. Inter-group comparisons were performed using χ2 test or Fisher′s exact test. The results showed an overall thalassemia positivity rate of 66.70% (2 997/4 493), with carrier, intermediate and major thalassemia rates of 62.01% (2 786/4 493), 3.98% (179/4 493) and 0.71% (32/4 493), respectively. The positivity rates for thalassemia were 87.83% (1 545/1 759) in the Li ethnic group and 53.11% (1 452/2 734) in the Han ethnic group. Among them, the Li ethnic group exhibited significantly higher positivity rates for α-thalassemia (71.12% vs. 40.64%, χ2=398.90, P<0.001) and α/β-compound thalassemia (13.36% vs. 3.33%, χ2=160.06, P<0.001) compared to the Han ethnic group, whereas the Han ethnic group had a higher β-thalassemia rate (9.14% vs. 3.35%, χ2=56.03, P<0.001). Both ethnic groups shared common α-thalassemia alleles (-α 3.7 and -α 4.2), but the -- SEA allele proportion was significantly higher in Han (21.33% vs. 4.34%, χ2=231.45, P<0.001). Six rare -α 21.9 mutations (0.26%) were exclusively identified in the Li ethnic group, whereas none were found in Han. For β-thalassemia, the β CD41-42 allele was predominant in Li (96.60% vs. 71.01%, χ2=77.24, P<0.001), whereas other alleles (β IVS-II-654, β CD71-72, β CD17, and β -28) were more prevalent in Han (11.01%, 6.96%, 4.64%, and 3.19% vs. 1.54%, 0.00%, 0.31%, and 0.62%, respectively),all P<0.05. In conclusion, distinct ethnic disparities in thalassemia genotype distribution are observed in southern Hainan. The Li ethnic group is predominantly characterized by α-thalassemia and α/β-compound genotypes with a predominant β CD41-42 mutation. In contrast, the Han ethnic group displays higher -- SEA proportion and heterogeneous β-thalassemia genotypes.

Objective:To analyze the incidence and risk factors of ocular surface disease among power grid construction workers in plateau.Methods:A total of 11 132 construction personnel from the Ngari prefecture-central Tibet power grid interconnection project were included from 2019 to 2020.Baseline characteristics including age, gender, body mass index, developmental and nutritional status, relevant clinical indicators, etc.and follow-up data regarding incidence of ocular surface diseases were obtained from the medical records of Ali interconnection project staff medical station.The altitude of workplace and residence of the study population were obtained from the website (https: //zh-cn.topographic-map.com/legal/).The mean age of the subjects was (36.17±10.48) years, of which 95.33%(10, 612 subjects) were male.The median follow-up time was 1.53 years.The altitude of the residence and workplace were (1 954.77±940.64) and (4 535.09±232.71) meters, respectively.The incidence of ocular surface diseases in groups with different characteristics was calculated.Differential variables for the incidence of ocular surface diseases were screened by univariate Cox proportional hazards regression model.Influencing factors of ocular surface diseases multivariate were explored by Cox proportional hazards model.This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Peking University Health Science Center (No.IRB00001052-21066).Results:During the follow-up period, the incidence of ocular surface disease was 9.27% (1 032 cases), and the incidence of conjunctivitis and keratitis was 6.58% (733 cases) and 1.80% (200 cases), respectively.Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed that for every 1 000 meters increase in altitude of residence, the risk of ocular surface disease decreased by 15% ( HR[95% CI]: 0.85[0.80~0.91], P<0.001).For every 100 meters increase in altitude of workplace, the risk of ocular surface disease increased by 5% ( HR[95% CI]: 1.04[1.01~1.07], P=0.006).Decreased blood oxygen saturation ( HR[95% CI]: 1.09[1.02~1.16], P=0.007), hearing pulmonary dry rales (hazard ratio ( HR)[95% CI]: 1.53[1.12~2.09], P=0.007) and heart murmurs ( HR[95% CI]: 4.44[1.43~13.83], P=0.010) were associated with ocular surface disease. Conclusions:The incidence of ocular surface disease in personnel engaged in electric grid construction at high altitudes should not be ignored.High working altitude, low residence altitude, pulmonary dry rales, heart murmurs and low blood oxygen saturation are factors associated with the incidence of ocular surface disease.

Objective To evaluate the impact of modified cesarean section techniques on pregnancy outcomes in cases involving placenta accreta spectrum(PAS).Methods A retrospective study was conducted to enroll 176 pregnant women with PAS who underwent cesarean delivery at the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University between January 2016 and January 2025.Patients who received traditional cesarean delivery before January 17,2021,were assigned to the control group(n=115),while those who underwent a modified cesarean procedure after that date were included in the modified group(n=61).Clinical data,including gestational age,maternal age,gravidity,and intraoperative blood loss,were collected and compared between the two groups.Subsequently,a random forest algorithm was employed to develop a risk prediction model for adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with PAS.Results In the modified group,only one patient required a hysterectomy(1.64%),which was signifi-cantly lower than the 19 cases observed in the control group(16.52%).The modified group also demonstrated a higher intraoperative diagnosis rate of placenta accreta,along with lower incidences of hemorrhagic shock,disseminated intravascular coagulation,and neonatal asphyxia compared to the control group.However,the proportions of patients undergoing uterine compression sutures and uterine artery ligation were higher in the modified group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Patients were further classified into low-bleeding and high-bleeding subgroups for subgroup analysis.A significant difference in gravidity was observed between the two subgroups(P<0.05),whereas no significant difference was found in the proportion of patients receiving the modified procedure(P>0.05).A predictive model for refractory postpartum hemorrhage was developed with high discriminative ability(AUC=0.938,95%CI:0.917～0.958).Gini coefficient analysis identified gravidity,number of abortions,and ultrasound diagnosis of placenta accreta as key predictors of refractory postpartum hemorrhage(P<0.05).Conclusion Improved cesarean section techniques can effectively reduce intraoperative and postoperative bleeding in cases of PAS,significantly lowering the risk of hysterectomy and thereby improving pregnancy outcomes.

Objective:To explore the current status of frailty among elderly inpatients in Zunyi City and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:From October 2022 to March 2023, convenience sampling was used to select elderly patients who were hospitalized and treated at six hospitals, namely the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University, the First People's Hospital of Zunyi, Guizhou Aerospace Hospital, Zunyi Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and People's Hospital of Honghuagang District, Zunyi, as the research subject. The study subjects were surveyed using the General Information Questionnaire, Barthel Index, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Geriatric Depression Scale, and Fatigue, Resistance, Ambulation, Illness, Loss of Weight Scale. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of frailty in elderly inpatients in Zunyi City.Results:A total of 4 013 questionnaires were distributed and 3 853 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 96.01% (3 853/4 013). The incidence of frailty in elderly inpatients was 15.05% (580/3 853). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the coexistence of multiple diseases, types of long-term medication, activities of daily living, sleep quality, and depression were the influencing factors for frailty in elderly inpatients ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The incidence of frailty in elderly inpatients was high. Medical and nursing staff should pay attention to elderly inpatients with the coexistence of multiple diseases, long-term use of multiple medications, decreased activities of daily living, poor sleep quality, and depressive emotions, and develop targeted intervention measures for them.
