Objective To explore the correlation between nutritional status and frailty in elderly patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD), and to provide suggestions for the prevention of frailty occurrence in elderly patients with CVD. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 357 elderly CVD patients who were admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu Medical College from May 2024 to July 2024. These patients were divided into a frailty group and a non-frailty group based on the presence or absence of frailty. Data on the patients' nutritional status indicators [body mass index (BMI), weight loss, calf circumference, albumin, and grip strength], general demographic and clinical data, laboratory and physiological indicators, and functional and activity indicators were collected. The influencing factors of frailty and the correlation between nutritional status indicators and frailty were analyzed. Results Among the 357 patients, 69 cases (19.33%) were detected with frailty, while 288 (80.67%) were without frailty. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age (OR=1.120, 95% CI: 1.023–1.225) and weight loss (OR=2.776, 95% CI: 1.145–6.732) were risk factors influencing the occurrence of frailty in elderly CVD patients (P<0.05), while grip strength (OR=0.902, 95% CI: 0.831–0.980), albumin level (OR=0.892, 95% CI: 0.806–0.988), and calf circumference (OR=0.900, 95% CI: 0.829–0.978) were protective factors of frailty occurrence in elderly CVD patients (P<0.05). Conclusion The incidence rate of frailty is relatively high in elderly patients with CVD. Age and weight loss are independent risk factors for frailty, while high grip strength level, high albumin level, and large calf circumference are independent protective factors of frailty.

In February 2025, a local cluster outbreak caused by the D8 genotype Measles virus (MV) was first discovered in Henan Province. Epidemiological investigations and laboratory testing were conducted, including the collection of serum and throat swabs for MV IgM antibody and nucleic acid detection, virus isolation and genetic homology analysis. Measures such as close contact tracing, vaccination rate assessment and supplementary immunization activities were implemented, successfully preventing broader community transmission. A total of three cases were reported during the outbreak, including one imported-related adolescent and two secondary local adult cases. All cases presented with typical symptoms such as fever and rash. Both adult cases were complicated by pneumonia, with one case developing into severe pneumonia. MV genotyping showed that the two secondary cases were both the D8 genotype, with the viral sequences being completely homologous to the Kazakhstan strain. Among the close contacts, 98.2% were adults, and 142 individuals received emergency vaccination.

[Purpose]To analyze the incidence and mortality of gastric cancer in Zhejiang cancer registration areas in 2021,and trends from 2000 to 2021.[Methods]The data of gastric cancer were obtained from Zhejiang cancer registration areas.The crude incidence/mortality rates,age-specific rates,and age-standardized incidence/mortality rates by Chinese standard population(ASRC)and the world standard population(ASRW)were calculated.The temporal trends were ana-lyzed by calculating annual percentage change(APC)and average annual percentage change(AAPC).[Results]A total of 7 602 new cases and 4 178 deaths of gastric cancer were reported in 2021.The incidence and mortality rates of gastric cancer in men were significantly higher than those in women;the incidence rate in urban areas was significantly higher than that in rural areas,while the mortality was slightly lower than that in rural areas.From 2000 to 2021,the ASRC of inci-dence rate decreased from 16.80/105 to 16.08/105(without statistical significance):an upward trend was observed from 2000 to 2009,whereas a downward trend became apparent from 2009 to 2021.From 2000 to 2021 the ASRC of mortality rate decreased from 13.59/105 to 8.02/105 with an AAPC of-2.62％(P＜0.001).The decline rate of female mortality rate(AAPC=-2.68％,95％CI:-3.61％～-1.68％,P＜0.001)was slightly higher than that of male(AAPC=-2.44％,95％CI:-3.06％～-1.61％,P＜0.001).[Conclusion]In 2021,both the incidence and mortality rates of gastric can-cer in Zhejiang Province were lower than the national average in China,which ranked 6th and 4th among all types of cancer.From 2000 to 2021,the overall burden of gastric cancer in Zhejiang Province showed a downward trend.

OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical characteristics of patients with hematologic tumors combined with Fusarium infection and analyze the prevention and control measures.METHODS Six patients with hematologic neo-plasms combined with Fusarium infection diagnosed at the First Medical Center of the People's Liberation Army General Hospital from Apr.2019 to Dec.2023 were selected as research objects.Through retrospective analysis of patients' clinical data,the clinical manifestations,diagnosis,treatment and prevention strategies of Fusarium in-fection in hematologic neoplasms were analyzed.RESULTS All six patients with hematologic neoplasms combined with Fusarium infection were neutropenic or deficient patients,with main symptoms including moderate fever,painful skin nodules,rash,skin broken and crusted,and scrotal swelling and pain.Patients with severe neutrophil deficiency were susceptible to blood-borne Fusobacterium infections.Four patients had a markedly elevated G-test and Fusorium was first detected by microbiome metagenomic next-generation sequencing(mNGS)in blood,earli-er than traditional pathogenic culture methods.Five patients had Fusarium detected in urine or stool cultures.All six patients received empirical antibacterial and antifungal treatments,but the fungal infection treatment effects were poor.Treatment was adjusted according to the pathogenetic findings,mainly using a combination regimen based on liposomal amphotericin B or posaconazole tablets,with three patients cured and three death.Two pa-tients were from the same ward with a sixteen-day interval.Although no evidence of infection transmission was found,there was still a risk of cross-infection in patients with hematological malignancies and severe immunodefi-ciency.Measures for the prevention and control of hospital-acquired infections were implemented for patients with Fusarium infection and the ward.CONCLUSIONS The clinical manifestations of patients with hematological tumors combined with Fusarium infection are complex and varied with high mortality rates.MNGS testing is valuable in the early diagnosis of Fusarium infection,and it is necessary to explore new treatment options and hospital-ac-quired infectious disease prevention and control measures to improve the prognosis.

Objective To investigate the expression and roles of serine/threonine and tyrosine kinases(TTK)and mouse dual microbody 2(MDM2)in cervical lesion tissue.Methods Patients(n=180)who underwent gynecological surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Science and Technology from June 2022 to January 2024 were evaluated,including 50 patients in the cervical cancer group,50 patients in the high-grade lesion group,40 patients in the low-grade lesion group,and 40 patients in the non-cervical lesion(control)group.The mRNA expression and protein levels of TTK and MDM2 in each group were detected and compared by real-time quantitative PCR and immunohistochemistry,respectively.The diagnostic value of the mRNA expression levels of TTK and MDM2 in cer-vical cancer was analyzed using receiver operating characteristic curves.Results The mRNA levels of TTK and MDM2 significantly dif-fered among the four groups(P＜0.05);with increases in the lesion grade,the mRNA levels of TTK and MDM2 increased gradually and showed significant differences(P＜0.05).Immunohistochemical results showed that TTK was mainly located in the cytoplasm,whereas MDM2 was mainly located in the nucleus,with positive expression rates in cervical cancer tissues of 84.00％and 90.00％,respectively.These values were higher than those in other pathological tissues(P＜0.05).The mRNA levels of TTK and MDM2 were significantly cor-related with the degree of differentiation and lymph node metastasis(P＜0.05).The receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the areas under the curve of TTK and MDM2 mRNA for diagnosing cervical cancer were 0.803 and 0.798,respectively.Additionally,the area under the curve of the combined diagnosis was 0.912,which was higher than that observed for single detection(Z=2.230,2.553,P＜0.05).Conclusion The mRNA expression of TTK and MDM2 and their corresponding protein levels were increased in cervical lesions,demonstrating their potential as biological indicators for the clinical diagnosis of cervical cancer.

The platelets play the important role in tumor angiogenesis,growth,and metastasis,in addition to coagulation.The interaction between tumors and platelets can produce"tumor-induced platelets",which leads various changes of platelet characteristics.In addition,activated platelets can also inhibit the effects of both chemotherapy and immunotherapy,therefore,both inhibiting platelet activation and depleting platelets can effectively improve tumor prognosis.In this review,we intro-duced the key role of platelets in the development of tumors,summarized their application in tumor diagnosis,monitoring,and treatment,and provid-ed our view on how to develop precise delivery strategies based on platelets for achieve efficient and safe tumor treatment.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of an obstetric artificial intelligence (AI) assistant combined with a family-centered health education model on maternal self-care ability, comfort status, and spousal caregiving ability.Methods:This prospective, single-center, parallel randomized controlled trial used 1∶1 randomization and was conducted as a superiority trial. Postpartum mothers and their spouses admitted to family-style single rooms at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University between October 2024 and April 2025 were enrolled and randomly assigned to control or intervention groups using a random number table. The control group received conventional health education, while the intervention group received conventional health education plus the AI-assisted family-centered model. Interventions were administered at 2 hours, 6 hours, and 24 hours postpartum, and before discharge. Outcomes included maternal self-care ability, comfort status, and spousal caregiving ability, which were assessed at 2 hours postpartum and before discharge. Data were analyzed using independent and paired t-tests and Chi square tests. Results:Of the 88 mother-spouse dyads initially recruited, four were excluded due to mother-infant separation (e.g., neonatal jaundice), leaving 84 dyads (42 per group). After the intervention, the intervention group showed significantly higher maternal self-care ability scores [(192.81±13.80) vs. (181.00±21.41) scores, t=3.00], higher maternal comfort scores [(104.43±7.52) vs. (96.00±14.29) scores, t=3.38], and better spousal caregiving ability [(6.07±3.13) vs. (9.50±5.02) scores, t=－3.76] compared to the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion:The obstetric AI assistant combined with a family-centered health education model significantly improved maternal self-care ability and comfort status, as well as spousal caregiving ability.

Objective To explore the preferences and needs of colorectal cancer patients for"Internet+TCM nursing services",aiming to provide a basis for the improvement of service quality and the formulation of relevant policies,so as to better meet the needs of patients.Methods A total of 189 patients with colorectal cancer who were admitted to a tertiary A Chinese Medicine hospital in Qingdao from September 2023 to July 2024 were selected as the research subjects.A general data questionnaire and Questionnaire on"Internet+Traditional Chinese Medicine Nursing Service"Preference of Colorectal Cancer Patients were used with 6 attributes,including average out-of-pocket cost,nurse qualification,service waiting time,service mode,comprehensiveness of service content,and platform service evaluation,each attribute with 2 to 3 levels.The preference,payment intention of"Internet+TCM nursing services"were analyzed by constructing a mixed Logit model,and the influencing factors of choice preference of different colorectal cancer patients was explored through subgroup analysis.Results Totally 189 questionnaires were sent out,and 156 valid questionnaires were collected,with an effective recovery rate of 82.54％.Among the respondents,112 patients(71.79％)actively accepted"Internet+TCM nursing services",and the attributes of"Internet+TCM nursing services"such as payment fee,service evaluation,service content and nurse qualification had an impact on nursing service preference of colorectal cancer patients(P＜0.05).Based on willingness to pay,the ranking of attributes was service evaluation,service content and nurse qualification.Factors such as education level and the presence of ostomy also affected the preference of"Internet+TCM nursing services"in patients with colorectal cancer(P＜0.05).Conclusion Patients with colorectal cancer prefer"Internet+TCM nursing services",which has an average service cost of 50 yuan per time,excellent platform service evaluation,comprehensive service content,specialized TCM nurses.The preferences and specific characteristics of patients with colorectal cancer can be considered to optimize the allocation of nursing resources and provide services in line with their preferences.
