Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Jin's triple-needle therapy combined with bilateral high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in the treatment of post-stroke hemiplegia.Methods A total of 116 patients diagnosed with post-stroke hemiplegia and admitted to the wards and outpatient clinics of Yan'an City Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2023 to June 2024 were selected as the study subjects.The patients were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group using a random number table,with 58 patients in each group.The control group received bilateral high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation,while the observation group received Jin's triple-needle therapy in addition to the control group's treatment.After 30-day treatment,the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated.Changes in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores,Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA)scores for limb motor function,and Stroke-Specific Quality of Life(SS-QOL)scores were observed before and after treatment.Changes in neuron-specific enolase(NSE),glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP),and central nervous system-specific protein(S100-β)levels were compared between the two groups before and after treatment.The safety and incidence of adverse reactions in both groups were also evaluated.Results(1)The total effective rate in the observation group was 91.38%(53/58),compared to 75.86%(44/58)in the control group.The observation group showed significantly better efficacy than the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).(2)After treatment,both groups showed significant improvements in TCM syndrome scores and FMA scores for limb motor function(P＜0.05),and the observation group was significantly superior to the control group in improving TCM syndrome scores and FMA scores,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).(3)After treatment,both groups showed significant improvementss(P＜0.05)in NSE,GFAP,and S100-β level,and the observation group was significantly superior to the control group in improving NSE,GFAP,and S100-β levels,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).(4)After treatment,both groups showed significant improvements in SS-QOL scores for quality of life(P＜0.05),and the observation group was significantly superior to the control group in improving SS-QOL scores,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).(5)The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 12.07%(7/58),compared to 8.62%(5/58)in the control group.There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Jin's triple-needle therapy combined with bilateral high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation can significantly improve clinical symptoms,enhance limb motor function,reduce levels of brain injury markers,and improve the quality of life in patients with post-stroke hemiplegia.The treatment is safe and shows significant efficacy.

Objective:To explore the characteristics of delay discounting and non-systematic response data in intertemporal choice of adults with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD),and to explore the best data processing strategy for delay discounting task.Methods:Totally 108 adults with ADHD meeting the diagnostic cri-teria of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health Disorder,Fifth Edition(DSM-5)and 87 gender matched normal controls were enrolled.ADHD symptoms were assessed using the ADHD Symptom Rating Scale,the delay discounting task was used to measure the delay discounting rate,and a model-free algorithm was used to i-dentify non-systematic response data.Results:There was no significant difference in the proportion of non-systemat-ic response data between ADHD group and normal control group(P＞0.05).In the data sets using different data screening strategies,the delay discounting rates were higher in the ADHD group than in the normal control group(Ps＜0.05).The delay discounting rates were positively correlated with the hyperactive impulse scores(r=0.24,P=0.001),the inattention scores(r=0.20,P＜0.01)and the total scores of ADHD symptom Rating Scale(r=0.22,P＜0.01).Conclusion:Adults with ADHD prefer to obtain immediate small rewards in intertemporal choice.The immediate preference of intertemporal choice may be mainly related to hyperactive impulsive symp-toms.Exclusion strategy of non-systematic response data may be more applicable to delay discount task research.

Liver transplantation has become an important means of treating end-stage liver diseases. However, due to various factors, liver transplant recipients are in a state of fatigue for a long time. Fatigue can lead to poor health conditions, changes in normal social functions, an increase in negative emotional states, a decrease in quality of life, and even a possible decrease in survival rate. In order to strengthen the attention of medical staff to liver transplant recipients′ fatigue, timely detection and early effective interventions, this article will review the concept, survey tools, current status, related influencing factors, and intervention measures of fatigue in liver transplant recipients, in order to provide theoretical basis for improving fatigue symptoms in liver transplant recipients.

Objective:To investigate the application effect of early emergency nursing teaching for eye battle injuries guided by the deep teaching concept.Methods:A total of 64 ophthalmic nurses who participated in early emergency nursing training for eye battle injuries were divided into control group with 26 nurses and observation group with 38 nurses. For the control group, list-based self-directed learning was used for theoretical teaching, and the traditional demonstration teaching method was used for the teaching of operational skills; for the observation group, the deep teaching concept was used for teaching design from the aspects of promoting understanding, inspiring reflection, and providing immersive experience, and it is also used to implement theoretical and practical teaching. The two groups were compared in terms of general information, theoretical scores, operational skill scores, and core competency scores before and after implementation. SPSS 22.0 was used for the t-test and the chi-square test. Results:There were no significant differences between the two groups in the general information including age, years of working in ophthalmology, education background, and professional title. Before implementation, there were no significant differences between the two groups in theoretical score, operational skill score, and core competency score, and compared with the control group after implementation, the observation group had significantly better theoretical score [(90.13±5.87) vs. (81.73±4.68), P<0.001] and scores of two operational skills [(95.63±2.81) vs. (87.31±4.51), P<0.001; (96.24±2.74) vs. (89.08±4.50), P <0.001]. Compared with the control group in terms of Competency Inventory for Registered Nurse, the observation group had significantly better scores of critical thinking [(34.00±1.93) vs. (30.58±3.01), P<0.001] and clinical nursing ability [(32.13±1.65) vs. (28.35±2.28), P<0.001]. Conclusions:The teaching method based on the deep teaching concept helps to enhance the knowledge, emergency skills, clinical reflection, and nursing abilities of ophthalmic nurses in the early emergency treatment of eye battle injuries and can improve the ideological awareness and training readiness of military clinical nurses.

Objective To construct a nomogram prediction model for the risk of mild cognitive impair-ment (MCI) in elderly people aged ≥ 60-year-old.Methods A total of 502 elderly permanent residents in Guangxi were selected as the research subjects by the multi-stage stratified random sampling method,and the general situation questionnaire and the Beijing edition of MoCA-BJ scale were used to investigate the elderly people,and their anthropometric indicators were collected.The minimum absolute shrinkage rate and selection operator (LASSO) regression were used to screen the characteristic variables.The MCI risk nomogram pre-diction model was constructed.The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calibration curve were adopted to conduct the fitting effect test on the prediction model.Results Among the 502 elderly people,244 cases (46.04％) had the normal cognition and 258 cases (48.68％) had MCI.The logistic regression analysis showed that the age,education background,month income,children support,calf circumference,BMI and body fat index were the influencing factors of MCI in the elderly people,and the nomogram prediction model of the MCI risk in the elderly people was constructed by these seven variables.The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the model was 0.790 (95％CI:0.750-0.829),the sensitivity was 0.64,the specificity was 0.62,the C-index index was 0.790,and the model fitting x2=8.111,P=0.454,the predictive value was basically consistent with the actual value.Conclusion The nomogram prediction model of MCI risk in the elderly peo-ple is successfully constructed with good predictive effect.

Objective To explore the effect of feeding training based on solution-focused brief therapy on swallowing function in stroke patients with dysphagia.Methods Patients with dysphagia after stroke who were hospitalized in Wuxi Central Rehabilitation Hospital from January 2021 to February 2022 were selected in this study.They were divided into control group and observation group according to the time of admission,with 55 patients in each group.The control group received routine nursing.The observation group received routine nursing and feeding training based on solution-focused brief therapy.The negative emotions,swallowing function and quality of life of patients were evaluated before and after nursing intervention.Results There was no significant difference in the scores of anxiety,depression,water drinking test,or swallowing scale between the two groups before nursing intervention(P>0.05).The scores of anxiety,depression,and water drinking test in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group after nursing intervention(P<0.05),and the scores of the quality of life in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Feeding training based on the solution-focused brief therapy can alleviate anxiety and depression,and improve swallowing function,the recovery and the quality of life for stroke patients with dysphagia.

Objective To explore the molecular mechanism underlying miR-9500 regulating the migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells by targeting SMAD2. Methods The core target genes of miR-9500 were screened out by bioinformatics analysis, and their GO function analysis, KEGG signaling pathway enrichment, and survival analysis were performed. The targeted binding sites between miR-9500 and SMAD2 were predicted, and the direct targeting relationship between miR-9500 and SMAD2 was verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. qRT-PCR and Western blot were used to assess the effect of miR-9500 on the mRNA and protein expression levels of SMAD2. Wound healing assay, Transwell assay, and Matrigel invasion assay were used to determine the effect of miR-9500 on the migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells. Results The core target genes of miR-9500 were mainly enriched in the cancer pathway, TGF-β signaling pathway, and focal adhesion. However, only the expression levels of VAMP2, SMAD2, and RXRA among the top 10 core target genes were significantly correlated with the overall survival of patients with lung adenocarcinoma. miR-9500 targeted SMAD2 and down-regulated the expression levels of SMAD2, and overexpression of miR-9500 significantly inhibited the migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells and markedly decreased the expression levels of MMP2 and MMP9. Conclusion miR-9500 can inhibit the migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells by targeting SMAD2, which may play an important role in the tumorigenesis and development of lung adenocarcinoma as a tumor suppressor.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in AIDS patients complicated with Pneumocystis jirovecii ( P. jirovecii) infection. Methods:This is a retrospective study. From January 2019 to June 2021, the respiratory tract and other body fluid samples of 236 cases of AIDS co-infected patients diagnosed in the AIDS Department of Changsha First Hospital were collected, along with corresponding medical histories. Traditional etiological hexamine silver staining and serum 1,3-β-D glucan (BDG) were performed simultaneously with mNGS detection, and Fisher′s exact test was used to analyze the results and compare the diagnostic performances of mNGS with those of hexamine silver staining and serum G test.Results:A total of 236 cases of AIDS patients with pulmonary infection were collected and tested. Seventy-seven cases were clinically diagnosed with Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia and 159 cases with non- Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia. Among the 236 AIDS patients with pulmonary infection, mNGS detected 77 [32.63%(77/236)] positive cases of Pneumocystis jiroveci, while hexamine silver staining detected 10[4.24%(10/236)] and serum BDG detected 146 [61.86% (146/236). Based on these clinical diagnostic results, the sensitivity of mNGS detection was 100% (77/77) for the 77 patients with Pneumocystis pneumoniae, significantly higher than that of silver hexamine staining [12.99% (10/77), P=0.046] and serum BDG [58.44% (45/77), P=0.038]. The mNGS showed good specificity, which was the same as that of hexamine silver staining [100% (159/159)] and significantly higher than that of serum BDG [36.48% (58/159), P=0.026]. With therapeutic clinical diagnosis as the reference method, the accuracy of mNGS detection was 100% (236/236). Conclusions:This study evaluated the diagnostic value of mNGS detection in AIDS patients with Pneumocystis jirovecii infection. The results showed that the sensitivity and specificity of mNGS detection were high, and it had exceptional clinical application value in the pathogenic detection of infectious diseases.
