Objective:To study the results of detection of pulmonary nodules among military flying personnel and analyze the contributors to pulmonary nodules so as to provide data for early prevention and interventions.Methods:The physical examination data of 1 465 military flying personnel was retrospectively analyzed who had received the annual health checkup and undergone chest CT examinations at Lintong Rehabilitation and Recuperation Center. They were grouped by age (<40 years and ≥40 years), flying hour (<1 000 h and ≥1 000 h) and type of personnel [pilots and air support (technical) personnel]. The detection rates of pulmonary nodules among flying personnel were compared across groups, and a multivariate Logistic regression analysis was conducted to analyze the contributing factors to pulmonary nodules.Results:Among the 1 465 military flying personnel, 212 cases (14.47%) with pulmonary nodules were detected. A total of 230 pulmonary nodules were detected, including 35 pulmonary nodules (15.22%) in the left upper lung, 42 pulmonary nodules (18.26%) in the left lower lung, 52 pulmonary nodules (22.61%) in the right upper lung, 47 pulmonary nodules (20.43%) in the right middle lung, and 54 pulmonary nodules (23.48%) in the right lower lung. The detection rate of pulmonary nodules among military flying personnel in the ≥1 000 h group was higher than in the <1 000 h group, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=4.14, P=0.042). More pulmonary nodules were detected among military flying personnel who smoked than among those who did not, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=9.34, P=0.002). Age, types of personnel, body mass index, and complications with other lung diseases made no significant difference in the detection rate of pulmonary nodules (all P>0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that smoking was a risk factor for pulmonary nodules ( OR=1.692, 95% CI: 1.217-2.351). Conclusions:Among military flying personnel, pulmonary nodules are more likely to occur in the right lung. Smoking is an independent risk factor for pulmonary nodules, suggesting that routine chest CT screening should be carried out during the annual physical examinations of military flying personnel in order to exercise early interventions.

Objective:To retrieve, summarize and evaluate the best evidence for the non-pharmacological management of patients with cancer pain, so as to provide an evidence-based basis for the scientific management of cancer pain by healthcare professionals.Methods:A systematic search of the national and international literature on the non-pharmacological management of cancer pain was conducted, with a timeframe of January 2017 to January 2024. The quality of the included literature was evaluated, and evidence was extracted and summarized for those that met the quality criteria.Results:A total of 18 papers were included, including one clinical decision, seven guidelines, three expert consensus, and seven systematic reviews. Twenty-eight pieces of evidence were summarized around six themes of pain assessment, cognitive-behavioral interventions, physical therapy, interventional therapy and surgery, and self-management education and follow-up.Conclusions:Healthcare professionals should develop a patient-centered, appropriate and feasible non-pharmacological management plan for cancer pain with multiple agreements with patients and families, taking into account the clinical context and individual differences of patients in China, in order to improve the quality of life.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the psychological experience of cancer bereaved, so as to provide basis for bereavement care and intervention.Methods:Qualitative studies on the emotional experiences of cancer bereaved were searched in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, VIP, and China Biomedical Database. The search period was from database establishment to July 2023. The quality evaluation was conducted using the 2020 version of the quality evaluation criteria for qualitative research of the Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-Based Health Care Center, and the results were integrated using the Meta-synthesis.Results:A total of 11 studies were included, 44 research results were extracted, and 8 new categories and 3 integrated results were summarized, namely the differences in grief emotions after bereavement, grief coping, and support needs after bereavement.Conclusions:The psychological experience of bereaved is relatively complex, and their grief emotions vary. Medical and nursing staff should pay attention to the grief response of the bereaved, guide them to self-adjustment, attach importance to the needs of the bereaved, and provide social support to assist them in returning to society as soon as possible.

Objective:Our aim was to study the relationship between factor v Leiden (FⅤL) mutation and Chinese Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS). Methods:Twenty-nine BCS patients (25 patients with sporadic BCS,4 with familial BCS ),29 healthy persons were detected for FⅤL mutation with PCR-RFLP.Results: FⅤL mutation was detected in 3 of 4 patients with familial BCS. Two patients in A family and one patient in B family had FⅤL mutation. The mutation was heterozygous. The mutation frequency was 0.0517 in 29 pationts with BCS, 0.3750 in 4 with familial BCS.The frequency of FⅤL mutation in patients and healthy persons showed no statistical difference,but frequency of FⅤL mutation between patients with familial BCS and healthy persons showed significant difference.Conclusion:The FⅤL mutation was related to Chinese familial BCS, but not related to Chinese BCS.
