Purpose: Due to the preservation of the entire stomach after endoscopic resection, the occurrence of metachronous gastric cancer (MGC) remains a possibility. In this study, we investigated the incidence and risk factors for MGC in patients with early gastric cancer who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and successfully eradicatedHelicobacter pylori. Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted of 1,191 patients who underwent ESD and successfully eradicated H. pylori at the Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University. Endoscopic surveillance was performed at 3, 6, and 12 months post-resection, and annually thereafter. MGC was defined as the development of a new cancer at a site other than the primary gastric cancer site, at least 1 year after the initial endoscopic resection. Results: A total of 77 patients were diagnosed with MGC during a median follow-up of 41.5 months. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed a 5-year cumulative incidence of MGC of 9.4% after successful H. pylori eradication. Multivariate analysis of the training set using Cox proportional hazards models identified male sex, severe atrophic gastritis, multiple gastric cancers before H. pylori eradication, and smoking history as independent risk factors for MGC.The nomogram exhibited favorable discrimination, with area under the curves of 0.767 and 0.822 in the training set and 0.724 and 0.745 in the testing set at 3 and 5 years, respectively. Conclusions Patients with gastric cancer who undergo endoscopic resection, even after successful H. pylori eradication, should undergo annual and continuous endoscopic surveillance for MGC.

Diabetes of the exocrine pancreas(DEP) refers to a complication of diseases of the exocrine pancreas, associated with an increased risk of pancreatic cancer. Recent evidence has indicated that DEP, after type 2 diabetes, has become the second most common type of adults-onset diabetes, with a higher prevalence than type 1 diabetes. DEP is not a single condition but encompasses various exocrine pancreatic disorders that lead to hyperglycemia through different mechanisms, creating significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. This review examines the latest research on the risk factors and pathogenesis of DEP, aiming to provide insights to improve its clinical management strategies.

Objective This study aims to investigate the work fatigue risks of clinical nursing staff in a tertiary hospital in Xingguo County and analyze the influencing factors,providing a reference for formulating scientific work processes and systems and improving nursing quality.Methods A convenience sampling was conducted to select 179 clinical nurses from a tertiary hos-pital in Xingguo County from March to April 2025.A self-designed general information questionnaire,a clinical nursing staff work fatigue risk assessment questionnaire,and the nurse work stressor scale were used for the investigation.Univariate and multiple linear regression analyses were conducted to identify the influencing factors of work fatigue risks.Results A total of 186 ques-tionnaires were distributed,with 7 excluded as invalid and 179 valid responses(96.24％).The work fatigue risk assessment score of the 179 clinical nurses was(84.39±10.26),indicating a relatively high level of fatigue.There were significant differ-ences in work fatigue risk scores across genders,weekly working hours,years of work experience,contract types,and work stress levels(P＜0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender(B=0.624,95％CI=0.194～1.054),weekly work-ing hours(B=0.037,95％CI=0.067～0.007),years of work experience(B=0.028,95％CI=0.010～0.046),contract type(B=-0.517,95％CI=-0.997～-0.037),and work stress(B=0.127,95％CI=0.050～0.204)were the influen-cing factors of work fatigue risks(P＜0.05).Conclusion The work fatigue risks of clinical nursing staff in a tertiary hospital in Xingguo County are at a relatively high level.Gender,weekly working hours,years of work experience,contract type,and work stress are the main influencing factors.Nursing managers should pay attention to these factors and take targeted measures to inter-vene and reduce the work fatigue risks of nursing staff.

Objective:To understand the incidence of diabetes and influencing factors, the trend of FPG change and risk for mortality in HIV-infected individuals after antiretroviral therapy (ART) in Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture (Dehong).Methods:The HIV/AIDS treatment database was collected from China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention. This retrospective cohort study was conducted in HIV-infected individuals with access to ART in Dehong during 2004-2020.The Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to analyze the incidence density of diabetes, the influencing factors and risk for mortality in HIV-infected individuals with access to ART, mixed linear effects model was used to analyze the trend of FPG change and predict FPG in those with different glucose metabolic status at baseline survey. Statistical analysis was performed using software SAS 9.4.Results:A total of 8 763 HIV-infected individuals were included, in whom 8 432 (96.2%) had no diabetes, 331 had diabetes. The incidence density of diabetes was 2.31/1 000 person years. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis revealed that 30- 59 years old, BMI ≥24.0 kg/m 2, Efavirenz (EFV) based initial treatment regimen and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) at baseline survey were significantly and positively associated with incidence of diabetes. Mixed effect model revealed that FPG was positively correlated with the duration of ART, age and baseline FPG. Suffering from diabetes was a risk factor for mortality in HIV-infected individuals both at baseline survey and during follow-up. Conclusions:The risk for diabetes increased in HIV-infected individuals who were 30-59 years old, baseline BMI ≥24.0 kg/m 2, received EFV based initial treatment, and IFG in HIV-infected individuals after antiretroviral therapy in Dehong, 2004-2020. It is important to pay close attention to their blood glucose, and patients with high blood glucose should receive treatment as early as possible.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and clinical features of pertussis cases reported in Shandong Province of China.Methods:Data on pertussis cases in Shandong Province from 2007 to 2022 were collected from China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention. At the same time, some case information was collected from the database of notifiable pertussis in Shandong Province from 2007 to 2022. The distribution characteristics and clinical features of pertussis were analyzed. A spatial distribution map of pertussis cases in Shandong Province was drawn.Results:A total of 26 122 pertussis cases were reported in Shandong Province during 2007-2022, with an annual incidence rate ranging from 0.11 to 5.77 cases per 100 000 people. Cases occurred throughout the whole year, with a seasonal peak occurring in spring and summer, especially in July and August. In recent years, reported cases were mainly distributed in the central and western regions of Shandong Province, with fewer cases in the eastern region. The hot spots of the disease shifted from Heze and Dezhou City in 2007-2013 to Jinan and Tai′an city in 2014-2022. The age range of onset was from 1 day to 93 years old. The proportion of cases with age≤1 year was the largest (41.81%, 10 922/26 122), and the proportion of cases aged 0-6 months decreased from 32.21% (67/208)-55.67% (157/282) within the period of 2007 to 2013 to 16.78% (883/5 263)-41.97% (444/1 058) within the period of 2014 to 2022, with a statistically significant trend ( χ2 trend=670.01, P<0.001). There were 13 682 male cases and 12 440 female cases, with a male-female ratio of 1.10∶1. The male-female ratio was 1.45∶1 (806∶556) from 2007 to 2013 and 1.08∶1 (12 876∶11 884) from 2014 to 2022. The proportion of women increased from 42.31% (88/208) in 2007 to 47.84% (2 518/5 263) in 2022, and with a significant trend ( χ2 trend=22.25, P<0.001). In pertussis cases, the proportions of scattered children, kindergarten children and students were 71.38% (18 645/26 122), 15.13% (3 951/26 122), and 11.60% (3 031/26 122), respectively. The top five clinical symptoms of pertussis cases were paroxysmal spasmodic cough (86.33%, 21 411 cases), flushing (39.61%, 9 824 cases), restless sleep (34.51%, 8 558 cases), fever (30.80%, 7 638 cases), and crowing (27.53%, 6 829 cases). Among 24 802 cases, there were 15 542 cases (62.66%) with a history of immunization against pertussis vaccine. Conclusion:From 2007 to 2022, the incidence rate of pertussis cases in Shandong Province shows an upward trend, with the majority being young children, and the clinical symptoms are relatively typical.

Objective:To explore the curative efficacy of tandem autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for high-risk multiple myeloma (HRMM).Methods:From January 2017 to December 2021, retrospective analysis was conducted for 240 initially diagnosed HRMM patients. According to different treatment protocols after induction chemotherapy, they were further assigned into three groups of tandem ASCT (n= 20) ,single ASCT (n=80) and non-transplantation (n= 140). Rates of deep response (very good partial response and above) before and after transplantation and differences in 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared among three groups. The prognostic factors of HRMM were examined by univariate and multivariate analyses.Results:In single ASCT group, the rates of deep responses were 67.50% (54/80) after induction chemotherapy and 80.00 % (64/80) post-ASCT ( P=0.072). There were no significant statistical differences. In tandem ASCT group, the rates of deep response were 65.00% (13/20) after induction chemotherapy and 95.00 % (19/20) post-ASCT ( P=0.018). There were significant statistical differences. The 2-year PFS of tandem ASCT, single ASCT and non-transplantation groups were (75.00±2.90) %, (71.25±3.00) % and (61.43±3.10) % respectively. No statistically significant difference existed in 2-year PFS rates between single ASCT and non-transplantation groups, as well as between tandem ASCT and single ASCT groups ( P=0.365 and P=0.052). Significant difference existed in 2-year PFS between tandem ASCT and non-transplantation groups ( P<0.032). Two-year OS rates of tandem ASCT, single ASCT and non-transplantation groups were (90.00±3.50) %, (78.75±2.70) % and (62.86±2.50) % respectively. No statistically significant difference existed in 2-year OS rate between single ASCT and non-transplantation groups, as well as between tandem ASCT and single ASCT groups ( P=0.071 and P=0.057). Significant difference existed in 2-year OS between tandem ASCT and non-transplantation groups ( P=0.003). Univariate and multivariate analyses indicated that the independent prognostic factors affecting PFS were multi-hit, stages RISS-Ⅲ and failure to achieve very good partial response (VGPR) after four cycles of induction therapy and non-tandem ASCT. The independent prognostic factors affecting OS were multi-hit, stages RISS-Ⅲ and non-tandem ASCT. Conclusion:Tandem ASCT not only significantly improves the depth of remission but also further enhances 2-year PFS/OS of HRMM patients. It is a recommended treatment for HRMM.
