ObjectiveTo construct a nomogram prediction model for non-valvular persistent atrial fibrillation （PeAF） patients with left ventricular hypertrophy （LVH） ， followed by prognostic analysis through follow-up. MethodsThis study retrospectively enrolled 949 patients with newly diagnosed and hospitalized non-valvular PeAF. Among them， 403 patients presented with LVH. The cohort was randomly stratified into a training set （n=665） and a validation set （n=284）. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were employed to identify independent risk factors for PeAF complicated by LVH. A nomogram prediction model was subsequently constructed and evaluated for discriminative ability， calibration， and clinical utility using receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve analysis， calibration plots， and decision curve analysis （DCA）. ResultsSeven independent risk factors were ultimately identified and included in the prediction model： female sex， hypertension， diabetes， red blood cell distribution width-SD （RDW-SD）， body mass index （BMI）， left atrial diameter （LAD）， and left ventricular ejection fraction （LVEF）. The area under the ROC curve （AUC） in the training set was 0.862 （95% CI： 0.834-0.890）， and in the validation set， it was 0.870 （95% CI： 0.829-0.911）， demonstrating excellent predictive performance. ConclusionIndependent risk factors for LVH in PeAF patients include female， hypertension， diabetes， RDW-SD， BMI， LAD， and LVEF. The prediction model built based on this can help early identification of PeAF patients with high risk of LVH. At the same time， the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events （MACE） is higher in PeAF patients with LVH. Patients with atrial fibrillation combined with LVH may benefit from catheter ablation.

ObjectiveTo assess the availability of bronchodilators for treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in community health service centers (CHCs) in Shanghai. MethodsOn the basis of previous research, the questionnaire was updated, and surveys were conducted from April to May 2023 in CHCs in Shanghai, with a focus on the availability of medications for COPD treatment. According to the National Basic Medical Insurance, Work Injury Insurance, and Maternity Insurance Drug List (2023 Edition), a total of 24 types of bronchodilators for COPD treatment were identified. The availability rates were used to assess the accessibility of specific drugs in CHCs, and the dispensing rates were used to evaluate the variety of these medications in CHCs. ResultsA total of 248 CHCs responded, with a response rate of 100.0%. Among them, a total of 232 CHCs (93.5%) were equipped with bronchodilators. In terms of availability rates, the availability rates for β₂ adrenoreceptor agonists, muscarinic antagonists, combination drugs, and xanthines drugs were 86.3%, 52.0%, 52.4%, and 85.1%, respectively. Regional differences were observed, in that salbutamol/levalbuterol and budesonide-formoterol were less available in suburban CHCs, ipratropium bromide had lower availability in urban CHCs, and aminophylline was more available in suburban CHCs. Regarding the dispensing rates of the 24 types of bronchodilators for COPD treatment, the median of types equipped by CHCs was 5, with a total of 200 CHCs (80.6%) equipped with fewer than 7 types of bronchodilator drugs. ConclusionThe proportion of CHCs in Shanghai equipped with bronchodilators for COPD is relatively high. However, there exist problems such as limited variety of stocked medications, significant differences in the availability of different drugs, and regional imbalances in drug stocking. To improve the standardized diagnosis, treatment, and management of COPD patients, it is recommended to enhance the availability of COPD treatment medications in CHCs.

Objective:To analyze the there-dimensional radiographic characteristics of odontogenic myxoma(OM).Methods:Clinical records,histopathological reports,SCT or CBCT images of 18 patients with OM were retrospectively collected,and radiograph-ic features including lesion site,shape,size,expansion,intralesional septa and relationship with surrounding tissues were analyzed.The lesions were classified into types by the forms of septa.Results:18 patients(8 males and 10 females,aged 9-39 years old)were included.Among them,12 lesions(66.7％)were round-like in shape,7(38.9％)were located in the posterior maxilla,and 8(44.4％)in the posterior mandible.According to the septa map,the lesions included 4(22.2％)without septum(unilocular type),4 with(22.2％)sporadic septum on the periphery of the tumor(peripheral type),4(22.2％)with the septum from the periphery towards the center of the tumor(centripetal type)and 6(16.7％)with multiple septa interwoven as grid-like trabeclations(criss-crossing tup).Labial/buccal cortex expansion was present in 11 lesions(61.1％),and palatal cortex expansion in 12 lesions(66.7％).Moreover,cortex discontinuity occurred in 14 lesions(77.8％),impacted tooth was present in 9 lesions(16.7％),and root resorption was present in 8 lesions(44.4％).Conclusion:Most OMs occur in the posterior jaw,with multilocular and discontinued cortex.OMs can be classified into unilocular,perpheral,centripetal and cirss-crossing type by the forms of septa in the lesion.

Background/Aims: Liver transplantation is the most effective treatment for the sickest patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). However, the influence of donor age on liver transplantation, especially in ACLF patients, is still unclear. Methods: In this study, we used the data of the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients. We included patients with ACLF who received liver transplantation from January 1, 2007, to December 31, 2017, and the total number was 13,857. We allocated the ACLF recipients by age intogroup I (donor age ≤17 years, n=647); group II (donor age 18–59 years, n=11,423); and group III (donor age ≥60 years, n=1,787). Overall survival (OS), graft survival, and mortality were com-pared among the three age groups and the four ACLF grades. Cox regression was also analyzed. Results: The 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS rates were 89.6%, 85.5%, and 82.0% in group I; 89.4%, 83.4%, and 78.2% in group II; and 86.8%, 78.4%, and 71.4% in group III, respectively (p<0.001).When we analyzed the different effects of donor age on OS with different ACLF grades, in groupsII and III, we observed statistical differences. Finally, the cubic spline curve told us that the relative death rate changed linearly with increasing donor age. Conclusions Donor age is related to OS and graft survival of ACLF patients after transplanta-tion, and poorer results were associated with elderly donors. In addition, different donor ages have different effects on recipients with different ACLF grades.

Under the Healthy China strategy, the training of preventive medicine professionals should conform to the development of the times and the needs of public health. The article analyzed the problem of "disconnection between medical care and prevention" in teaching the course of Obstetrics and Gynecology for students majoring in preventive medicine, and proposed to strengthen the strategy of "integration of medical care and prevention". Guided by the concepts of "Comprehensive Health", with the cornerstone of cultivating morality and talents, the reform focused on enhancing the post competency of preventive medicine talents. Course content was optimized by reinforcing prevention-focused elements, student-centered teaching method innovation was advocated, and simulation-based training teaching system was established. Moreover, projects integrating science and education were used to improve faculty teaching capacity with tiered and diversified approaches. Course assessment methods were revised and "ideological and political education" was incorporated to establish the education concept of "emphasis on prevention and integration of medical care and prevention". The survey showed that these reform measures effectively improved the comprehensive clinical literacy of preventive medicine students in obstetrics and gynecology, which is of great significance for building a "integration of medical care and prevention" public health talent training model. In the future, the long-term effectiveness of course reform will be ensured from the perspectives of teaching resources, personnel investment, and policy support.

Objective To explore the application effects of a discharge planning service program based on King's Goal Attainment Theory in patients undergoing transcatheter heart valve surgery.Methods Using convenience sampling method,80 patients who underwent transcatheter heart valve surgery at a tertiary comprehensive hospital in Zhejiang Province from August 2023 to January 2024 were selected as the research subjects.Among them,40 patients from November 2023 to January 2024 were selected as an experimental group.A discharge preparation service plan for patients undergoing transcatheter heart valve surgery based on King's Goal Attainment Theory was adopted.Totally 40 patients who underwent transcatheter heart valve surgery from August to October 2023 were selected as a control group and underwent routine measures for discharge preparation.The differences in the scores of the discharge preparation scale,discharge guidance quality scale,self-management scale for patients after mechanical heart valve replacement surgery,and unplanned readmission rate were compared between 2 groups before and after intervention.Results During the application of the plan,a total of 2 cases were excluded,and 38 cases were included in the experimental group and 40 cases were included in the control group.After intervention,the experimental group had higher scores in discharge readiness,discharge guidance quality,and self-management ability than the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.001).The unplanned readmission rate within 30 days in the experimental group(2.63％)was lower than that in the control group(7.50％),and the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion The discharge preparation service plan for patients undergoing transcatheter heart valve surgery based on King's Goal Attainment Theory can improve the discharge preparation,discharge guidance quality,and self-management ability of patients undergoing transcatheter heart valve surgery,and has a positive effect on improving their quality of life.
