Objective To investigate anxious and depressive emotions in patients underwent cervical cancer surgery and to analyze its influencing factors.Methods A total of 304 patients who underwent primary cervical cancer surgery in Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University from Oct 2018 to Jun 2021,were recruited to evaluate the clinical effect based on cervical cancer-patient reported outcome 137 scale(CC-PRO137 scale).This study focused on dimensions of depressive and anxious emotions within this scale and explored their influencing factors.Results The average scores of their depressive and anxious emotions within half a year after surgery were 4.141±0.798 and 4.020±0.616,respectively;and the average scores of depressive and anxious emotions more than one year after surgery were 4.250±0.802 and 4.097±0.613,respectively.By using statistical methods including analysis of variance and t test,it was found that there were statistically significant differences in the scores of depression and anxiety among cervical cancer patients under different postoperative adjuvant treatments and at different postoperative time points(P<0.05).However,there were no statistically significant differences in the scores of depression and anxiety among patients with different ages,surgical methods,and clinical stages of cervical cancer(P>0.05).Conclusion Patients underwent cervical cancer surgery may suffer varying degree of depressive and anxious emotions,and the main influencing factors are different adjuvant treatments and the length of time for postsurgical recovery.Medical practitioners should strengthen comfort and care for patients with cervical cancer,especially those who receive chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatments and are in the primary stage after the surgery.Formulating positive intervention measures can effectively reduce the psychological pain of patients and safeguard their physical and mental health.

Objective To investigate the associations of reproductive health indicators with lung function and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)among women aged 40 years and above.Methods From Jul to Sep,2021,female subjects aged 40 years and above were randomly selected from the Shanghai Suburban Adult Cohort and Biobank for COPD screening.A questionnaire was used to obtain information on demographic characteristics and reproductive health indicators.Linear regression was used to analyze the effects of reproductive health indicators on forced vital capacity(FVC)and forced expiratory volume in the first second(FEV1).Logistic regression was also used to analyze the effects of reproductive health factors on FVC as a percentage of the predicted value(FVC%Pred)and FEV1%Pred as well as on COPD.Results A total of 1876 women aged 40 years and above were enrolled with mean age of(62.1±8.2)years old,among them,78.1%were menopausal,and 40.9%had been pregnant≥3 times.Multivariate analysis showed that FVC and FEV1 decreased in postmenopausal women,but menopause was not associated with a decrease in their percentage of predicted values.Pregnancies≥3 times was a risk factor for COPD(for 3 times,OR=4.92,95%CI:1.48-19.95,P<0.05;for≥4 times,OR=9.06,95%CI:2.32-41.57,P<0.01),while pregnancies of 2 times did not increase the risk of COPD.Conclusion In women aged 40 years and above,menopause is associated with poorer FVC and FEV1,and excessive pregnancy(≥3 times)is a risk factor for COPD.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of community nursing needs of patients with middle and advanced Parkinson ′s disease, analyze the factors affecting the demand, and further explore the possible pathways of action between the factors, so as to provide the basis for formulating targeted community intervention measures in a more comprehensive way. Methods:A cross-sectional survey of 242 patients with middle and advanced Parkinson ′s disease from the Second Hospital Affiliated to the Army Medical University from November 2022 to January 2023 were selected by convenience sampling method, and the Community Care Need Scale, General Data Questionnaire, Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale, Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire and the Self-management Effectiveness Questionnaire of Parkinson ′s disease patients were used. SPSS 26.0 was used to analyze the data, and investigated the relationship between readiness for hospital discharge, self-management efficacy, active coping styles, and community nursing needs. Results:A total of 234 valid questionnaires were collected, including 108 males and 126 females, aged 39-93 (67.25±8.93) years. The average score of all dimensions from high to low was: disease treatment dimension (4.16±0.42), daily care dimension (4.05±0.97), fall prevention dimension (4.04±0.80), extended care dimension (3.95±0.65), emotional support dimension (3.77±0.65) and self function (3.75±0.72). Univariate analysis indicated that there were statistically significant differences in community nursing needs scores among middle and advanced Parkinson ′s disease patients with different educational level and different family income ( F=5.11, 3.05, both P<0.05). Readiness for hospital discharge, self-management efficacy and positive coping style were negatively correlated with community nursing needs of patients with middle and advanced Parkinson′s disease ( r=-0.567, -0.412, -0.398, all P<0.01), and self-management efficacy and positive coping style played a partial mediating role between readiness for hospital discharge and community nursing needs. Conclusions:There is a wide range of community nursing needs that patients with middle and advanced Parkinson ′s disease, and patients with primary school and below, high school and above, and low family income are higher. It is suggested that the community disease management process should focus on this group of people. Medical institutions should help patients with middle and advanced Parkinson ′s disease improve their ability to manage the disease by improving discharge preparation services, so that they can smoothly transition from hospital to home, thereby reducing the needs for community nursing.

Objective:To analyze the accuracy of lung ultrasound and chest X-ray in the diagnosis of neonatal pulmonary disease.Methods:We prospectively collected newborns that needed chest X-ray examination to diagnose pulmonary disease from twelve neonatal intensive care units across the country between June 2019 and April 2020.Each newborn was examined by lung ultrasound within two hours after chest X-ray examination.All chest X-ray and lung ultrasound images were independently read by a radiologist and a sonographer.When there was a disagreement, a panel of two experienced physicians made a final diagnosis based on the clinical history, chest X-ray and lung ultrasound images.Results:A total of 1 100 newborns were enrolled in our study.The diagnostic agreement between chest X-ray and lung ultrasound(Cohen′s kappa coefficient=0.347) was fair.Lung ultrasound(area under the curve=0.778; 95% CI 0.753-0.803) performed significantly better than chest X-ray(area under the curve=0.513; 95% CI 0.483-0.543) in the diagnosis of transient tachypnea of the newborn( P<0.001). The accuracy of lung ultrasound in diagnosing neonatal respiratory distress syndrome, meconium aspiration syndrome, pneumonia and neonatal pulmonary atelectasis was similar to that of chest X-ray. Conclusion:Lung ultrasound, as a low-cost, simple and radiation-free auxiliary examination method, has a diagnostic accuracy close to or even better than that of chest X-ray, which may replace chest X-ray in the diagnosis of some neonatal lung diseases.It should be noted that both chest X-ray and lung ultrasound can only be used as auxiliary means for the diagnosis of lung diseases, and it is necessary to combine imaging with the clinical history and presentation.

Both anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) disease and the anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) are common causes of pulmonary-renal syndrome. Organizing pneumonia (OP), a special pattern of interstitial lung disease, is extremely rare either in AAV or anti-GBM disease. We report an old woman presented with OP on a background of co-presentation with both ANCA and anti-GBM antibodies.
