Objective:To explore the potential causal relationships between major depressive disorder(MDD),anxiety disorder(AD)and various highly prevalent cancers from the genetic perspective.Methods:Sum-mary statistics from large-scale genome-wide association studies(GW AS)were analyzed using a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization(MR)approach.The inverse variance weighting method(IVW)was usedas the main analytical approach.The intercept term of MR-Egger regression and the MR-PRESSO method were adopted for the pleiotropy test.Results:The IVW analysis revealed potential causal relationships between MDD and breast cancer[OR(95％CI):1.11(1.01-1.22),P＜0.05],AD and lung cancer[OR(95％CI):1.30(1.02-1.65),P＜0.05],and between colon cancer and MDD[OR(95％CI):1.05(1.00-1.11),P＜0.05].The results of the pleiotropy test showed that the intercept terms of the MR-Egger regression were not statistically significant,indica-ting the absence of pleiotropy.The MR-PRESSO method detected outliers only in the relationship between MDD and breast cancer.The association between MDD and breast cancer remained significant after correction for outliers[OR(95％CI):1.10(1.03-1.17),P＜0.05].Conclusion:The study suggests that MDD may be a risk factor for breast cancer,AD may increase the risk factor for lung cancer,and colon cancer may elevate the risk factor of MDD.Moreover,the possibility of reverse causal relationships has been excluded in all these cases.

Objective:To construct an esophageal language rehabilitation program for patients after total laryngectomy (TL) based on the behavioral change wheel theory and exploring its application effects.Methods:The multidisciplinary team constructed the first draft of the esophageal language rehabilitation program for patients after TL based on the behavioral change wheel theory, combined with a literature review, and used an expert meeting to revise the rehabilitation program to form the final draft of the program. Adopting experimental research, 35 patients after TL who attended the nursing outpatient clinic of Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University from February 2023 to May 2023 were selected as the control group by convenience sampling method, and 35 patients after TL who attended the nursing outpatient clinic from June 2023 to September 2023 were selected as the experimental group. The experimental group applied the TL postoperative patients′ esophageal language rehabilitation program based on the behavioral change wheel theory on the basis of conventional nursing measures, and the control group received conventional nursing care. The status of language rehabilitation training, quality of life, social behavioral status, and anxiety and depression status before intervention, 1, 3, 6 months after intervention were compared between the two groups.Results:Both groups of patients completed the study. There were 29 males and 6 females in the control group, with an age of (54.63 ± 10.44) years old. There were 34 males and 1 female in the experimental group, with an age of (55.17 ± 10.67) years old. There was no statistically significant difference in the language rehabilitation training status, quality of life, social behavior status, and anxiety and depression status between the two groups before intervention (all P>0.05). The total scores of speech rehabilitation training in the experimental group at 1, 3, and 6 months after intervention were (32.80 ± 2.49), (39.80 ± 2.75), (51.91 ± 4.20) points, respectively, which were higher than those in the control group (23.40 ± 3.42), (24.40 ± 3.42), (25.80 ± 3.42) points, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=14.53, 23.44, 32.70, all P<0.05). The total scores of quality of life in the experimental group at 1, 3, and 6 months after intervention were (98.91 ± 8.49), (134.66 ± 11.31), (157.97 ± 13.97) points, respectively, which were higher than those in the control group (67.06 ± 7.64), (72.16 ± 7.64), (99.46 ± 8.09) points, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=17.53, 30.16, 21.45, all P<0.05). The scores for social occasion diet and language comprehension in the experimental group at 1, 3, and 6 months after intervention were (40.41 ± 13.94), (40.43 ± 24.08), (40.60 ± 18.56), and (43.71 ± 12.26), (47.40 ± 17.09), (52.50 ± 13.82), respectively, which were higher than those in the control group (30.59 ± 15.98), (30.57 ± 18.28), (27.21 ± 15.27), and (27.29 ± 15.13), (23.60 ± 14.78), (19.50 ± 12.78), and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were -6.88-2.16, all P<0.05). The total scores of anxiety and depression in the experimental group at 1, 3, and 6 months after intervention were (23.74 ± 2.73), (14.89 ± 3.89), (12.11 ± 3.14) points, respectively, which were lower than those in the control group (32.63 ± 1.85), (30.63 ± 1.85), (24.80 ± 2.75) points, and the differences were statistically significant (t=-19.55, -27.10, -17.97, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The esophageal language rehabilitation program for patients after TL based on the behavioral change wheel theory in this study is scientific, feasible, and can improve the patients′ esophageal language expression, quality of life, anxiety and depression, and social behavioral status, which can provide a reference for clinical care.

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.

In recent years, the third medical education reform characterized by competency-based medical education (CBME) is being carried out around the world; however, there are still challenges in bridging competency framework with clinical practice during implementation. With reference to the three-step method for constructing a CBME curriculum system based on entrustable professional activities (EPAs) and related policies and studies in China in recent years, this article constructs a framework of EPAs with the features of orthopedics by detailing the EPAs of specified clinical operation. On this basis, this article proposes a competency-oriented standardized training system for orthopedic residents, with the help of teaching evaluation methods to ensure the successful implementation of courses, so as to provide a reference for establishing a training system for surgery based on EPAs.

Triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC)is a highly aggressive and prognostically unfavorable subtype.Tertiary lymphoid structure(TLS)within the tumor microenvironment,comprising dendritic cells,B cells,T cells,and other immune cells,modulate the tumor immune response.The heterogeneity of TLS in TNBC,such as density,structural maturity,and molecular expression patterns,affects the tumor immune microenvironment and,consequently,treatment responses and clinical outcomes.Studies indicate a positive correlation between the density and maturity of TLS and the pathological complete response(pCR)of TNBC patients,with TLS enhancing the quantity of tumor-infiltrating immune cells and improving anti-tumor immune responses,thereby increasing sensitivity to chemotherapy and immunotherapy.Recent research has found that mature TLS are associated with effective immune responses,becoming significant predictors of treatment response.The combination of TLS with immune checkpoint inhibitors has shown promising prospects.Research demonstrates that promoting the formation or enhancing the functionality of TLS can improve anti-tumor immune effects and enhance treatment outcomes for TNBC patients.Targeting TLS may reduce immune evasion and increase the sensitivity to immunotherapy.However,clinical application of TLS still faces challenges,particularly the impact of their heterogeneity on treatment response.Current assessment methods for TLS are not standardized,lacking a uniform standard and diagnostic system,which limits their widespread application.Future research should focus on resolving these issues by developing standardized assessment tools and further exploring the role of TLS in immune escape and resistance mechanisms.This review aimed to summarize and analyze the existing research progress on TLS in TNBC,in order to provide new ideas for the development of personalized immunotherapy strategies.

Objective:To explore the specialty work engagement dilemma among wound therapists in non-specialist clinics, so as to provide a reference basis for improving wound therapists' work engagement and reducing job burnout.Methods:This study was a phenomenological study. Semi-structured interviews with 12 wound therapists in non-specialist clinics from 12 hospitals were conducted between May and July 2024 using purposive sampling. Colaizzi seven-step method was used for data analysis and topic refinement.Results:A total of five themes and 13 sub-themes were extracted, including the role change dilemma (focus dispersion due to transfer of positions in clinical departments, and identity challenges due to adjustment of the field of job posting) , career development dilemma (reduced motivation due to obstacles to in-depth development in specialized fields, and limited conditions for scientific research training and implementation impeding the recognition and return of work) , support environment dilemma (insufficient medical insurance support increased job burden, lack of hospital support reduced work efficiency, lack of team support weakened work focus, poor self-support limited the depth of work engagement, lack of support from patients and their families increased the difficulty of maintaining work motivation) , pros and cons weighing dilemma (unclear delineation of risk and responsibility, difficult to weigh risk and benefit) , dilemma of whole-course management of disease (lack of communication between hospitals weakened the continuity of work, lack of home follow-up increased the uncertainty of the work) .Conclusions:Specialty work engagement dilemmas among wound therapists in non-specialist clinics are influenced by a variety of factors. It is necessary for medical institutions, healthcare workers and patients' families to work together to create a favorable working environment for wound therapists in order to promote the high-quality development of wound therapy nursing services in China.

Psychological factors have become significant contributors to the onset and progression of insomnia. This article explored the treatment of insomnia from the perspective of “liver governs wei qi （defensive qi）”. The concept of “liver governs wei qi （defensive qi）” is summarized in three aspects， firstly， the liver assists the spleen and stomach in transformation and transportation， governing the generation of wei qi； secondly， the liver aids lung qi diffusion and dispersion， governing the distribution of wei qi； thirdly， the liver regulates circadian rhythms， governing the circulation of wei qi. It is proposed that the clinical treatment of insomnia should focus on the following methods： for regulating the liver to harmonize the five viscera， and facilitate the circulation of wei qi， medicinals entering the liver channel include Chaihu （Bupleuri radix）， Baishao （Paeoniae Radix Alba）， Zhizi （Gardeniae Fructus）， and Suanzaoren （Ziziphi Spinosae Semen） could be commonly used； for nourishing the liver， the treatment should align with the day-night rhythm， and herbs such as Baihe （Lilium）， Hehuan （Albizia julibrissin）， and Yejiaoteng （Polygoni multiflori caulis） are commonly used； for soothing the liver and address both mental and physical health to calm wei qi， treatment should advocate verbal counseling， psychological regulation， and health education. Ultimately， this treatment approach can free liver qi to flow， soothe qi movement， restore the motion of wei qi， regulate during day and night， balance yin and yang， and resolve insomnia effectively.
