Objective:To implement evidence-based practice for eye management in ICU patients undergoing prone position ventilation and evaluate the effectiveness of applying the best evidence for eye management in this setting.Methods:Through literature retrieval, screening, and evaluation, the best evidence for eye management in ICU patients undergoing prone position ventilation was summarized and compiled into evidence review indicators. From March to June 2024, convenience sampling was used to select 29 ICU prone position ventilation patients and 30 ICU nurses at Shanghai Changzheng Hospital for baseline review to identify obstacles in clinical practice of evidence and develop action strategies based on these obstacles. From July to October 2024, 29 ICU prone position ventilation patients and 29 ICU nurses were selected for evidence-based practice to compare the implementation rates of review indicators before and after evidence-based practice, ICU nurses' knowledge, attitude and practice regarding eye management for prone position ventilation patients, as well as the intraocular pressure during prone position ventilation and the incidence of eye complications within the first week of ICU admission.Results:After evidence-based practice, the implementation rates of all 16 review indicators by ICU nurses were higher than those before evidence-based practice, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The total score, knowledge dimension score, and practice dimension score on the Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Questionnaire on Eye Management during Prone Position Ventilation for ICU nurses were higher than those before evidence-based practice, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). After evidence-based practice, the intraocular pressure of ICU patients in prone position ventilation for 8 hours and at the end improved, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The overall incidence of eye complications within one week of ICU admission decreased from 27.6% to 6.9%, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Implementing evidence-based practices for eye management in ICU patients undergoing prone position ventilation can effectively increase nurses' implementation rates of review indicators, enhance their knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding eye management, and reduce the incidence of eye complications in patients.

Objective To explore the relationship between serum Niemann-pick type C1 like protein1(NPC1L1)and propro-tein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9(PCSK9)levels and the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)in Mongolian residents.Methods A total of 72 Mongolian patients with T2DM treated in Peking University Cancer Hospital,Inner Mongolia Hospital and the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University from June 2022 to June 2024 were selected as the T2DM group,and 81 healthy people in the same period were selected as the control group.LASSO model and multivariate Logistic regression model were used to screen the risk factors of disease onset.Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the correlation between NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels and insulin function.Restricted cubic spline(RCS)model was used to analyze the dose-response relationship between NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels and the incidence of T2DM,and explored the interaction between NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels on the incidence of T2DM.Results NPC1L1(3.11±0.80 ng/L)and PCSK9(10.63±0.79 ng/L)in T2DM group were significantly higher than those in the control group(0.52±0.22 ng/L,3.21±0.17 ng/L),and the differences were statisti-cally significant(t=27.982,82.443,all P<0.05).NPC1L1(OR=2.458,95%CI=2.364～2.594,P<0.05)and PCSK9(OR=2.905,95%CI=2.541～3.528)were risk factors for T2DM(all P<0.001).The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that as NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels increased,FINS,HbA1c,C-P and OGTT levels also increased accordingly.With the increase of NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels,insulin function also decreased(all P<0.05).The results of RCS model showed that with the increase of NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels,the probability of T2DM incidence also increased(χ2=22.334,25.537,all P<0.001).No significant interaction was found between NPC1L1,PCSK9 levels and islet function indexes(P>0.05).Conclusion The levels of NPC1L1 and PCSK9 are closely related to the risk of T2DM in Mongolian residents.With the increase of NPC1L1 and PCSK9 levels,the incidence probability of T2DM increases.

Objective To explore a nomogram of intratumor and peritumor radiomics based on enhanced CT venous phase to pre-operatively predict the pathological grade of poorly differentiated esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC).Methods A retro-spective selection was made of 266 ESCC patients confirmed by pathology(76 cases of poorly differentiated;190 cases of non-poorly differentiated),and all patients were randomly divided into training set(n=186),validation set(n=80),and full data set(n=266).Tumors were segmented on the enhanced CT venous phase to create three-dimensional region of interest(ROI)of intratumor,peritu-mor 0.3 cm,and intratumor+peritumor 0.3 cm.A total of 2 553 radiomics features were extracted.After feature dimensionality reduc-tion,XGboost machine learning algorithm was utilized to rank the top fifteen features.Stepwise forward multiple logistic regression was employed to identify the most significant features.The radiomics scores of the intratumor,peritumor 0.3 cm,and intratumor+peritu-mor 0.3 cm were calculated.The diagnostic efficacy of the model was evaluated using the area under the curve(AUC)of the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,calibration curve and decision curve analysis(DCA).Results The nomogram constructed based on radiomics scores of intratumor,peritumor 0.3 cm,intratumor+peritumor 0.3 cm in the training set for preoperative prediction of poorly differentiated ESCC had an AUC of 0.899[95％confidence interval(CI)0.846-0.938],and it was well validated in the vali-dation set(AUC 0.869,95％CI 0.775-0.934)and the full data set(AUC 0.889,95％CI 0.845-0.924).Additionally,calibration curves and DCA indicated that the nomogram achieved good calibration ability in the three cohorts and offered greater clinical net benefit.Conclusion The nomogram based on enhanced CT venous phase intratumor and peritumor radiomics achieves a high and stable diagnostic efficacy for preoperatively predicting poorly differentiated ESCC,which may help with individualized surgical selec-tion and management before surgery.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

This study investigated the disease characteristics and clinical traits of Nocardia infection,and analyzed the antibiotic resistance phenotypes,antibiotic resistance genes,and evolutionary characteristics of the strains,to provide a basis for Nocardia diag-nosis and treatment.A total of 31 Nocardia strains from a hospital in Hebei Province were collected from 2020 to 2023.The strains were identified through mass spectrometry and whole genome sequencing.Antibiotic susceptibility testing was conducted with the broth macrodilution method,and whole genome sequencing data were used to predict antibiotic resistance genes and comprehensively ana-lyze antibiotic resistance phenotypes.The 31 strains of Nocardia comprised 21 strains of Nocardia farcinica,3 strains of Nocardia ter-penica,three strains of Nocardia brasiliensis,two strains of Nocardia cyriacigeorgica,and two strains of Nocardia nova.The ceftriaxone susceptibility of 21 Nocardia farcinica strains was 85.7%,and all 31 strains were susceptible to imipenem,except for three strains of Nocardia brasiliensis.Rifampicin,aminoglycoside,and β-lactam resistance genes were found in Nocardia farcinica.Pathogenic tests should be carried out in a timely manner for suspected Nocardia infections.In clinical treatment of Nocardia infection,infected strains should be confirmed,and antibiotics should be used rationally according to the antibiotic susceptibility test results.
