Objective: To retrospectively analyze the clinical data of 474 newborns with hyperbilirubinemia, and to investigate the clinical characteristics of hyperbilirubinemia caused by ABO hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (ABO-HDFN) and factors influencing the phototherapy duration. Methods: A total of 474 neonates with hyperbilirubinemia treated in the First Hospital of Lanzhou University from January 2019 to January 2023 were enrolled. Blood type identification and the standard serological tests (direct antiglobulin test, serum free antibody test, and antibody elution test) were performed for all neonates. Baseline clinical data were collected and analyzed. According to the results of the hemolysis tests, neonates were divided into hemolytic jaundice group and non-hemolytic jaundice group. Clinical indicators, including hemoglobin levels, length of hospital stay, and phototherapy duration, were compared between the two groups. A multiple linear regression model was used to explore clinical factors influencing the duration of phototherapy. Results: Among the 474 neonates with hyperbilirubinemia, 354 were diagnosed with ABO-HDFN (hemolytic group), while 120 were without ABO-HDFN (non-hemolytic group). The incidence of ABO-HDFN in neonates with blood type A (55.93%, 198/354) was significantly higher than those with blood type B (44.07%, 156/354) (P<0.05). Furthermore, neonates born to multiparous women had a significantly higher ABO-HDFN incidence (81.56%, 146/179) than first-born neonates (70.51%, 208/295) (P<0.05). Neonates in the hemolytic group had significantly lower hemoglobin levels (170.67±21.86 g/L vs 178.99±22.05 g/L, P<0.001), lower red blood cell counts (4.66±0.63×10 /L vs 4.89±0.59×10 /L, P<0.05), and lower hematocrit (50.05±6.56% vs 52.61±6.75%, P<0.05) compared to the non-hemolytic group. Additionally, the hemolytic group had significantly longer hospital stays (6 [5, 9] days vs 6 [4, 8] days), longer phototherapy duration (62 [38, 84.25] h vs 53 [34.25, 64.77] h), and higher frequency of jaundice episodes (9 [7, 13] times vs 8 [6, 12] times] compared to the non-hemolytic group (all P<0.05). Regression analysis indicated that a positive indirect Coombs test and multiparity were independent risk factors associated with prolonged phototherapy duration (P<0.05). Conclusion: ABO incompatibility is the leading cause of hemolytic disease in neonates, particularly in cases where the mother has blood type O and the neonate has blood type A. In such cases, close monitoring of bilirubin levels is strongly recommended. Multiparous pregnancies increase the risk of alloimmune hemolysis. Therefore, neonates born to multiparous women may require more frequent bilirubin monitoring and appropriate prenatal interventions when necessary. Additionally, changes in indicators such as hemoglobin level and red blood cell count should be closely monitored as early warning indicators for hemolytic anemia and bilirubin elevation.

Background Previous studies have demonstrated that the vagus nerve stimulation improves upper limb function in patients with stroke sequelae(six month-two years).This study aimed to investigate whether the auricular intradermal acupuncture(AIA)acted on the auricular branch of the vagus nerve can facilitate the recovery of upper limb motor function and expedite the effects and characteristics of rehabilitation processes in flaccid phase after stroke in Phase Brunnstrom Ⅰ.Methods This study utilized a randomized controlled single-blinded clinical design.Patients with ischemic stroke in Phase Brunnstrom Ⅰ were randomly assigned to the auricular intradermal acupuncture(AIA)group(AIA,standard rehabilitation,conventional acupuncture)or the sham auricular intradermal acupuncture(sham AIA)group(the sham AIA,standard rehabilitation,conventional acupuncture)for 6 days of 1 week(6 times).Primary outcome measures:Brunnstrom(Ueda Assessment),Fugl-Meyer assessment of the upper extremity(FMA-UE)and its subtype score(FMA-UEFS,FMA-UEES),Wolf motor function test scale(WMFT).Secondary outcome measures:Upper limb active range of joint motion(AROM),manual muscle test(MMT)of upper limb muscles,Barthel index(BI).Results Of the 332 patients who were screened,70 patients met the criteria and were recruited.There were 35 patients in the AIA group,1 patient was fall off,34 patients were actually completed;35 patients in the sham AIA group had no falling off case.Primary outcome measures:The upper Ueda assessment of the AIA group were better than those of the sham AIA group after treatment on days 3 and 6(P<0.05,P<0.001,respectively).The FMA-UEFS score on days 6 of the AIA group were significantly better than those of the sham AIA group(P<0.05).FMA-UEES of the AIA group was more associated with FMA-UE than FMA-UEFS with FMA-UE after treatment on day 6(FMA-UEFS:r=0.728,P<0.001;FMA-UEES:r=0.744,P<0.001).After 3 days and 6 days of treatment,the AIA group of the WMFT were significantly improved in the sham AIA group(P<0.05,P<0.001,respectively).Secondary outcome measures:AROM:After 6 days of treatment,the AIA group of shoulder abduction were more improved than in the sham AIA group(P<0.05).MMT:The muscle strength of elbow flexion,and elbow extension muscle improved more in the AIA group than in the sham AIA group(P<0.05).Barthel index(BI):After 6 days of treatment,there was a significant improvement in the group compared with before treatment(P<0.05),but no difference compared with the group(P>0.05).Conclusions AIA combined with conventional rehabilitation and acupuncture,can effectively improve the upper limb motor function of patients with post-ischemic stroke flaccid hemiplegia and accelerates the rehabilitation process of upper limb motor function.Clinical Trial Registration The study protocol is registered withhttp://www.chictr.org.cn(accession number:ChiCTR2200058141).

Objective:To explore the clinical features of nivolumab-induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN).Methods:Relevant databases at home and abroad (as of December 31, 2023) were searched to collect case reports of nivolumab-induced SJS/TEN, and the demographic characteristics, nivolumab application, combination drugs, clinical manifestations, intervention measures, and outcomes were extracted and analyzed descriptively and statistically.Results:A total of 27 case reports were included and 29 patients were enrolled in the study, including 18 males and 11 females. The age ranged from 45 to 86 years, with an average age of 67 years. The primary diseases were mainly melanoma, stomach cancer, and lung cancer. Twelve patients had records of nivolumab administration, and the dosage was within the recommended range in the labels; 13 patients had records of combination drugs, mainly other antineoplastic drugs, hypoglycemic drugs, antihypertensive drugs, lipid-regulating drugs, etc. The time from using nivolumab to the diagnosis of SJS/TEN was 7 d to 3 years, and 20 patients were <8 weeks. The clinical manifestations were mainly diffuse erythema, flaky skin peeling and erosion, mucosal involvement, etc. Sixteen patients had skin biopsy records, all of which met the histopathological characteristics of SJS/TEN. After the diagnosis of SJS/TEN, 17 patients discontinued nivolumab and received symptomatic treatments, of which 15 patients had improved skin symptoms, one patient had worsened skin symptoms, and one patient had no record of skin outcome; 12 patients had no record of whether or not discontinuing nivolumab, of which 8 patients had improved skin symptoms, 2 patients had worsened skin symptoms, one patient had no record of skin outcome, and one had no record of prognosis. One patient rechallenged nivolumab, severe SJS/TEN recurred. Thirteen of 29 patients died. Of them, 1 died due to cardiac arrest, 4 due to worsened skin rash, and 8 due to primary disease progression.Conclusions:SJS/TEN caused by nivolumab mostly occurs within 8 weeks of treatment, and the clinical manifestations were similar to those caused by other drugs. The mortality rate of nivolumab-induced SJS/TEN is high, and skin rash could be improved after withdrawal of nivolumab and symptomatic treatments.

Objective To investigate the value of serum long noncoding RNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 7(lncRNA SNHG7)and microRNA(miR)-34a-5p expression in the diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of bloodstream infection(BSI).Methods A total of 193 suspected BSI patients admitted to the emergency department of Guangxi Wuzhou Red Cross Hospital from March 2022 to March 2023 were collected as the study subjects.After diagnosis,BSI patients were included as the infection group(n=100),and non BSI patients were included as the non infection group(n=93).After 28 days of treatment,BSI patients were separated into a death group(n=32)and a survival group(n=68)based on their prognosis.The real time fluorgenic quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR)method was applied to detect the expression levels of serum lncRNA SNHG7 and miR-34a-5p.The Target Scan Human website was applied to predict the targeting relationship between miR-34a-5p and lncRNA SNHG7.Pearson method was applied to analyze the correlation between serum lncRNA SNHG7 level and miR-34a-5p level.Multivariate Logistic regression was applied to analyze the influencing factors of prognosis in patients with BSI.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to analyze the prognostic value of serum lncRNA SNHG7 and miR-34a-5p.Results The serum lncRNA SNHG7 level(1.47±0.35)in the infection group was obviously higher than that in the non infection group(1.03±0.15),and the miR-34a-5p level(0.85±0.21)was obviously lower than that in the non infection group(1.02±0.13),and the differences were statistically significant(t=11.203,6.703,all P<0.05).Compared with survival group,the serum lncRNA SNHG(1.68±0.21 vs 1.37±0.19),C-reactive protein(CRP)(85.74±9.16mg/L vs 63.18±7.68mg/L),procalcitonin(PCT)levels(56.37±8.72ng/ml vs 34.69±5.54ng/ml),albumin(92.51±10.18g/L vs 65.27±7.24g/L),Acute Physiological and Chronic Health Evaluation(APACHE II)scores(28.15±5.12scores vs 16.35±4.31scores)of the death group were obviously higher,and serum miR-34a-5p level(0.67±0.14 vs 0.93±0.16)was obviously lower,the differences were statistically significant.(t=7.357～15.340,all P<0.05).LncRNA SNHG7 had a targeted binding site with miR-34a-5p,and lncRNA SNHG7 was negatively correlated with miR-34a-5p(r=-0.568,P<0.05).Serum lncRNA SNHG7 and miR-34a-5p were prognostic factors for BSI patients(all P<0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of serum lncRNA SNHG7,miR-34a-5p,and their combined evaluation of prognosis in BSI patients was better than that of serum lncRNA SNHG7 and miR-34a-5p detected sepatately(Z=0.001,2.304,all P<0.05),with sensitivity and specificity of 78.12%and 97.06%,respectively.Conclusion The serum lncRNA SNHG7 level in BSI patients is obviously elevated,while the serum miR-34a-5p level is obviously reduced.The two are closely related to the prognosis of BSI patients,and the combination of the two has good evaluation value for the prognosis of BSI patients.

Objective:To carry out evidence-based practice for postoperative pain management in patients undergoing hepatectomy based on the knowledge to action (KTA) framework, and to evaluate the application effects of the best evidence.Methods:A systematic review of databases on pain management for hepatectomy patients both domestically and internationally was conducted to form the best evidence. This was combined with the Postoperative pain assessment and nursing in adults group standard to form quality review indicators. From November to December 2023, a baseline review was conducted with 21 healthcare staff and 31 patients undergoing laparoscopic hepatectomy at the Hepatobiliary Surgery Department of Shandong Provincial Hospital. The barriers to evidence-based practice were analyzed, and the best evidence application and transformation actions were implemented. A re-evaluation was conducted from January to March 2024 after applying the evidence with 31 laparoscopic hepatectomy patients and 21 healthcare staff. The execution rates of the review indicators, patient pain levels, satisfaction with pain control, and patient comfort were compared before and after evidence application. Results:After applying the evidence, the execution rate of the review indicators by healthcare staff increased to 19.35%-100.00%. Post-intervention, the pain scores at postoperative immediate, 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours were significantly lower than before the evidence application, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Additionally, post-intervention, the patients' satisfaction with pain control and comfort scores were significantly higher than before the evidence application, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The application of the best evidence for pain management in hepatectomy, combined with the construction of quality review indicators and evidence-based practice, can alleviate postoperative pain in patients, improve their satisfaction, and enhance their comfort.

Postoperative pain seriously affects the recovery process of patients, resulting in prolonged hospital stay and increased care costs. Appropriate application of patient-controlled analgesia devices can effectively relieve perioperative acute pain. In 1994 patient-controlled analgesia began to be used in Peking Union Medical College Hospital, and the Acute Pain Service Working Group was established in 2004. With the cooperation of anesthesiologists and specialist nurses, the group jointly has implemented the whole process and standardized management based on patient-controlled analgesia, and constantly improved and innovated working methods, laying a solid foundation for the development of postoperative pain management. This paper systematically reviews and summarizes the work from the aspects of clinical focus, nursing management experience, promotion and dissemination of pain treatment concepts, and development of acute pain service model under the new situation, with the hope of providing valuable reference for comprehensively strengthening pain management in the process of diagnosis and treatment, and enhancing patients' satisfaction with perioperative analgesia services.
