Background: The hypotension prediction index (HPI) is an algorithm designed to predict hypotension. Some studies have reported that HPI-guided hemodynamic management strategies decrease intraoperative hypotension and complications; however, the effect of HPI on reducing perioperative complications is controversial. This meta-analysis aimed to assess the efficacy of the HPI in reducing major complications and intraoperative hypotension. Methods: We conducted this meta-analysis according to the PRISMA statement and Cochrane Handbook guidelines. A comprehensive literature review was conducted to identify studies focusing on the efficacy of HPI-guided management in reducing intraoperative hypotension and postoperative complications. The PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were searched, and the resulting data were combined to calculate the pooled mean differences or risk ratios (RRs) with 95% CIs of both randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and retrospective studies, as appropriate. Heterogeneity and potential publication bias were also assessed. Results: Nineteen articles (12 RCTs and 7 retrospective studies) with 2570 recruited patients were included in this meta-analysis. The critical evaluation of the study quality revealed a low risk of bias in the included RCTs. Among the non-randomized trials, one was rated 7, two were rated 8, and the remaining four were rated 9 on the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale, indicating high quality and a low risk of bias. HPI-guided management significantly reduced intraoperative hypotension and associated major complications (RR = 0.79, 95% CI [0.69–0.90], I2 = 0, P < 0.001). Blood loss and length of hospital stay were comparable between the groups. Conclusions HPI-guided management significantly reduced intraoperative hypotension and major complications.

Objective:To explore the relationship and underlying mechanisms between servant leadership and satisfaction of medical staff in tertiary hospitals, and to provide references for improving satisfaction of medical personnel.Methods:From January to June 2023, a questionnaire survey was conducted among on-duty medical staff at a tertiary hospital in Guangzhou using a simple random sampling method. Data corresponding to four key variables: servant leadership, hospital management level, affective commitment, and satisfaction of medical staff were collected. SPSS 25.0 software was used to perform independent samples t-tests and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) to examine group differences, and Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to explore the relationships among multiple variables. Amos 24.0 software was employed to construct a structural equation model to conduct confirmatory factor analysis of the four key variables, analyze potential mediating effects, and use multi-group analysis to examine differences in path parameters and structure among groups. Results:A total of 632 valid questionnaires were obtained. The satisfaction score of medical staff was (4.50±0.66)(maximum score was 5 points). Age, years of work experience, and job category had statistically significant effects on satisfaction of medical staff ( F = 5.799, 6.483, 7.671; P = 0.001). All four key variables were significantly positively correlated ( P<0.001). Servant leadership, hospital management level, and affective commitment all had direct positive effects on satisfaction of medical staff, with path coefficients of 0.207, 0.386, and 0.345, respectively ( P <0.05, critical ratio>1.96). Hospital management level and affective commitment each had independent partial mediating effects between servant leadership and satisfaction of medical staff (path coefficients of 0.353 and 0.067, respectively; P = 0.007, 0.018). They also jointly exerted a chain mediating effect (path coefficient of 0.243, P = 0.013). Differences in path effects among different job categories (clinical doctors, nurses, and administrative support staff) were statistically significant ( χ2 = 43.344, df = 24, P = 0.009). Conclusions:The servant leadership in tertiary hospitals can directly influence the satisfaction of medical staff, as well as indirectly influence it through emotional commitment and hospital management level. Moreover, the mechanisms of influence vary among medical staff of different professional categories. Tertiary hospitals should introduce and promote servant leadership styles, enhance the servant leadership behaviors of management personnel, and strengthen the synergistic effects of servant leadership, hospital management level, and affective commitment. Differential adjustment mechanisms should be implemented for different job categories.

Objective To evaluate the impact of intensified infection control measures on the incidence of health-care-associated infection(HAI)under the background of the reform of diagnosis-intervention packet(DIP)payment,and provide decision-making basis for HAI management under the reform of medical insurance payment.Methods The interrupted time series research design was used to collect the monitoring data of HAI in a tertiary first-class hospital from October 2021 to September 2024.The changing trend of HAI incidence was analyzed by piecewise li-near regression,and the intervention effect was evaluated by standardized infection ratio(SIR).Results From Oc-tober 2021 to September 2022,the incidence of HAI was 2.17％(95％CI:2.08％-2.26％),which dropped to 1.87％(95％CI:1.82％-1.92％)after the intervention.Piecewise linear regression analysis showed that the inci-dence of HAI decreased by 0.324％immediately after the intervention(95％CI:-0.481％--0.167％,P＜0.001),and the trend after the intervention changed significantly compared with that before the intervention(95％CI:-0.033％--0.009％,P=0.001).SIR analysis showed that the actual incidence during the entire intervention period was equivalent to 74.56％of the incidence in intervention period,gradually stabilized from 88.39％-93.81％at the beginning of the intervention to 67.03％-71.22％at the end of the study,and the intervention effect was sustained.Conclusion Intensified infection control measures under the background of the reform of DIP significantly reduce the incidence of HAI and improve the stability of infection control management,which provide new insights into the synergistic improvement of medical insurance payment and HAI management quality.

Objective To explore the characteristics of gastric emptying in the whole process of drinking water for colonoscopy in the elderly,and to develop an elderly-friendly drinking water program,thereby improving the comfort and the quality of bowel preparation.Methods From April to September 2024,gastric ultrasound was used to monitor gastric emptying indicators in the whole process of drinking water for colonoscopy in the elderly,summa-rizing its physiological features.On this basis,in October 2024,through literature review and expert argumentation,a bowel preparation drinking water program that meets the characteristics of gastric emptying in the elderly was de-veloped.A convenience sample of 90 elderly patients scheduled for colonoscopy at 2 tertiary hospitals in Beijing was enrolled from November 2024 to January 2025.A non-concurrent controlled trial was conducted:an experimen-tal group from December 2024 to January 2025 received the new elderly-friendly drinking water program,while a control group in November 2024 followed the conventional program.Outcomes included drinking comfort assessed via Visual Analogue Scale(VAS),adverse events,total fluid intake volume and bowel preparation quality via Boston Bowel Preparation Scale(BBPS).Results The experimental group demonstrated superior VAS score(P＜0.05),bowel preparation quality(P＜0.05),total fluid intake(P＜0.05),and higher compliance with optimal stool consistency(P＜0.05),compared to the control group.The experimental group also exhibited a lower incidence of adverse events(P＜0.05).No significant difference was observed in total bowel preparation duration between 2 groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion The bowel preparation drinking water program based on the characteristics of gastric emptying in the elderly improved solution intake tolerance and bowel preparation quality,with practical implications for clinical implementation.

Objective:To observe the effect of isokinetic sensorimotor training on the hand function of stroke survivors.Methods:Forty-two stroke survivors with hand dysfunction were randomly divided into an isokinetic group of 22 and a control group of 20. Both groups were given sensorimotor training in addition to routine drug treatment and rehabilitation therapy, but the isokinetic group was additionally provided with sensorimotor training based on isokinetic techniques for 45 minutes daily, 5 days a week for 4 consecutive weeks. Before and after the intervention, both groups were evaluated using the Semmes-Weinstein monofilament examination (SWME), their two-point discrimination (2-PD) was documented, proprioception of their wrist joints was quantified, and the Fugl-Meyer upper extremity assessment (FMA-UE) and the simplified upper limb function assessment (STEF) were applied.Results:In both groups after treatment, there was a significant improvement in the SWME scores and 2-PD distance of the index finger and the thenar, and there was a significant decrease in the angle of motion perception (at 30° of flexion). The average FMA-UE and STEF scores of both groups had improved. After the treatment, the SWME scores of the index finger and the thenar, as well as well as the average FMA-UE and STEF scores of the isokinetic group were significantly higher than the control group′s averages. Angle of motion perception was also significantly superior.Conclusions:Sensorimotor training based on isokinetic techniques can significantly improve touch, motion sense, gross motor function and the fine motor ability of stroke survivors.

Objective:To analyze the mediating effects of psychological resilience on the relationship between perceived social support and health behavior capacity in patients with ischemic stroke.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, 500 patients with ischemic stroke were consecutively recruited using purposive sampling in the First People′s Hospital of Lianyungang between July and September in 2023. The sociodemographic characteristics, perceived social support scale, psychological resilience questionnaire and self-rated abilities for health practices scale in the patients were collected. A total of 500 questionnaires were distributed and 493 questionnaires were collected, of which 473 (95.9%) were valid. The structural equation model was constructed to explore the mediating effects of psychological resilience on the relationship between perceived social support and health behavior capacity in patients with ischemic stroke.Results:Among the 473 patients included in the analysis, there were 254 males and 219 females, with an average age of (66.8±11.4) years. The duration of stroke was less than 3 months for 329 patients (69.6%); the scores for perceived social support, psychological resilience and health behavior capacity was (59.68±11.15), (23.68±6.52), and (60.54±23.52), respectively. Perceived social support exerted significant direct effect ( β=0.334, bias-corrected 95% CI: 0.232-0.438) on health behavior capacity in patients with ischemic stroke, accounting for 63.62% of the total effect. Psychological resilience played a mediating role in the relationship between perceived social support and health behavior capacity ( β=0.191, bias-corrected 95% CI: 0.142-0.248), accounting for 36.38% of the total effect (all P<0.05). Conclusion:The health behavior capacity of patients with ischemic stroke is at a moderately low level, perceived social support may positively affect health behavior capacity through the positive mediating effect of psychological resilience.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of our self-designed intelligent robot-assisted reduction system for fresh subtrochanteric fractures of the femur.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to include 10 patients with fresh subtrochanteric fracture of the femur who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedic Trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from January 2024 to July 2024. There were 7 males and 3 females with an age of (45.0±14.3) years and an interval from injury to surgery of (7.9±3.7) d. All the patients were treated by minimally invasive reduction which was assisted by our self-designed intelligent robot, and internal fixation with intramedullary nails. The operation duration, intraoperative reduction duration, intraoperative blood loss, and intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency were recorded. The reduction effect was evaluated by calculating the differences between preoperative planning and postoperative CT reconstruction (i.e., the differences in femoral shaft length and in rotation angle). The hip functional recovery was assessed by Harris hip function Scoring.Results:The mean operation time was 200.0 (161.3, 217.5) min, the reduction time (83.0±35.5) min, the intraoperative blood loss (290.0±110.1) mL, and the intraoperative fluoroscopy 18.5 (9.0, 19.3) times. In all patients, the difference in femoral shaft length was (2.4±1.4) mm, and the difference in rotation angle 5.1°±3.0°. All patients were followed up for (8.2±2.0)months. All the fractures got united at the last follow-up. Their Harris hip function score was (83.3±4.1) points.Conclusion:Our self-designed intelligent robot-assisted reduction system is feasible and effective in the surgery of fresh subtrochanteric fracture of the femur, because the robot system can complete the autonomous planning of reduction approaches before surgery and assist fracture reduction under real-time monitoring with three-dimensional images, leading to fine outcomes.

Objective:To observe and analyze the subtype-specific prognostic factors for visual recovery in patients with demyelinating optic neuritis (DON) after glucocorticoid pulse therapy.Methods:A retrospective cohort study. A total of 195 patients (249 eyes) with DON diagnosed by ophthalmology examination at Department of Ophthalmology, Xi'an People's Hospital (Xi'an Fourth Hospital) from January 2021 to December 2024 were included in the study. According to the results of serum antibody detection and clinical diagnostic criteria, the patients were divided into the neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD)-associated optic neuritis (ON) (NMOSD-ON) group, the myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antitide-associated ON (MOG-ON) group, and the double antibody negative ON group. They were 51 cases (58 eyes), 72 cases (103 eyes), and 72 cases (88 eyes) respectively. Baseline clinical data, imaging characteristics, and treatment protocols were collected. The primary endpoints were complete visual recovery [best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) ≥ 1.0] and moderate recovery (BCVA ≥0.5) at 3 months post-onset. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify independent prognostic factors for visual outcomes within each subtype.Results:At 3 months post-onset, complete recovery rates were 9 (15.5%, 9/58) in the NMOSD-ON group, 64 (62.1%, 64/103) in the MOG-ON group, and 31 (35.2%, 31/88) in the double-seronegative ON group. The results of multivariate regression analysis showed that age [odds ratio ( OR) =0.901, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 0.854-0.950, P<0.001] and peak visual acuity ( OR=0.311, 95% CI 0.147-0.660, P=0.002) and the involvement of optic nerve length ≥1/2 ( OR=3.849, 95% CI 1.083-13.682, P=0.037) were the influencing factors for the complete recovery of visual acuity in the affected eyes of the double antibody negative ON group. Age ( OR=0.958, 95% CI 0.933-0.983, P=0.001) was the only influencing factor for the complete recovery of visual acuity in the affected eyes of the MOG-ON group. Peak visual acuity ( OR=0.288, 95% CI 0.090-0.927, P=0.037) and optic nerve involvement length ≥1/2 ( OR=19.974, 95% CI 1.905-209.559, P=0.013) were the influencing factors for the complete recovery of visual acuity in the affected eyes of the NMOSD-ON group. Age ( OR=0.936, 95% CI 0.890-0.983, P=0.009), time from onset to intravenous infusion of methylprednisolone sodium succinate intervention ( OR=0.854, 95% CI 0.759-0.961, P=0.009), optic disc edema ( OR=4.405, 95% CI 1.108-17.512, P=0.035) and peak visual acuity ( OR=0.13, 95% CI 0.046-0.365, P<0.001) were the influencing factors for the moderate recovery of visual acuity in the affected eyes of the double antibody negative ON group. Peak visual acuity was the only influencing factor for the moderate recovery of visual acuity in the MOG-ON group ( OR=0.060, 95% CI 0.010-0.352, P=0.002) and the NMOSD-ON group ( OR=0.163, 95% CI 0.053-0.500, P=0.001). Conclusions:The prognostic factors for visual recovery in patients with DON after glucocorticoid pulse therapy are subtype-specific. Peak visual acuity is a common predictor for all subtypes. For NMOSD-ON and double antibody-negative ON, attention should be paid to the length of optic nerve lesions. MOG-ON is age-related. Early intravenous infusion of methylprednisolone sodium succinate for double antiantibody negative ON is more likely to achieve moderate vision recovery.
