Objective:To explore the status quo and latent profiles of medical students' sense of meaning in life and the relationships of these profiles with attitudes toward death.Methods:From March to June 2023, 390 medical students from Tianjin Medical University, Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Tianjin Medical College, and Tangshan Polytechnic University were selected as the subjects. The research tools included the General Information Questionnaire, the Chinese version of the Meaning in Life Questionnaire, and the Chinese version of the Death Attitude Profile-Revised. The latent profiles of the sense of meaning in life among medical students were analyzed using Mplus 8.3 software. SPSS 26.0 software was used to analyze the general data and the relationships between different latent profiles and attitudes toward death.Results:Medical students generally demonstrated a moderately high level of meaning in life, which could be divided into two latent profiles: the negative-uncertain type (28.46%) and the positive-oriented type (71.54%). Logistic regression analysis showed that perceptions of the importance of life education, the most appropriate timing for its implementation, and familiarity with concepts such as hospice care, palliative care and end of life care were identified as factors influencing the latent profiles of meaning in life among medical students. Students in the positive-oriented profile were more likely to exhibit a natural acceptance attitude toward death.Conclusion:There is heterogeneity in medical students' sense of meaning in life. Educators can set up appropriate life education curricula at various stages of student development to support their growth into competent healthcare professionals.

Objective To investigate the mechanism mediating the regulatory effect of lncRNA MAGI2-AS3 on cisplatin(DDP)resistance in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods MAGI2-AS3 and miR-1269a expression levels were detected by qRT-PCR in DDP-sensitive lung cancer cell lines(A549 and H1299)and their resistant counterparts(A549/DDP and H1299/DDP).In A549 and H1299 cells with MAGI2-AS3 silencing and A549/DDP and H1299/DDP cells overexpressing MAGI2-AS3,the effects of 20 μmol/L DDP on cell viability and apoptosis were examined with CCK-8 assay,colony formation assay,flow cytometry and Western blotting,and the changes in epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)were assessed with wound healing and Transwell assays.The interaction between MAGI2-AS3,miR-1269a and PTEN was predicted using GEPIA,StarBase and miRDB and verified with luciferase reporter gene assay and radioimmunoprecipitation(RIP)assay.A miR-1269a mimic and pcDNA3.1-PTEN plasmid were used to perform the rescue assay.Results MAGI2-AS3 expression was significantly downregulated in lung cancer tissues(P<0.05)in association with a poor prognosis(P<0.05).In the two DDP-resistant lung cancer cell lines,MAGI2-AS3 expression was significantly lowered as compared with the sensitive cells.Silencing MAGI2-AS3 significantly enhanced cell viability and promoted EMT of A549 and H1299 cells irrespective of DDP treatment,and also decreased DDP-induced apoptosis of the cells.In A549/DDP and H1299/DDP cells,MAGI2-AS3 overexpression strongly repressed cell viability and EMT irrespective of DDP treatment and promoted DDP-induced cell apoptosis.Luciferase reporter gene and RIP assays confirmed the binding of MAGI2-AS3 with miR-1269a and the binding of miR-1269a with 3'-UTR domain of PTEN.The rescue assay demonstrated that MAGI2-AS3 acted as a sponge for miR-1269a to promote PTEN expression and downregulate AKT phosphorylation,thus inhibiting EMT and promoting DDP-induced apoptosis of A549/DDP cells.Conclusion MAGI2-AS3 enhances DDP sensitivity of NSCLC by targeted regulation of the miR-1269a/PTEN/AKT signaling axis.

Objective To explore the clinical features,treatment and prognosis of glioblastomas(GBM)in adults.Methods A retrospective cohort study was performed on 176 adult GBM patients admitted to our department from January 2015 to December 2021.Chi-square test was used to investigate the clinical differences between isocitrate dehydrogenase(IDH)mutant and wild-type GBM.Kaplan-Meier and Log-Rank tests were employed to plot survival curve and compute the survival analysis.Multivariate Cox regression model was applied to identify the independent prognostic factors.Results IDH wild-type GBM account for 89.2％and had significantly differences from the IDH-mutant GBM in terms of age of onset,Karnofsky(KPS)score at admission,symptoms of neurological deficit,and methylation status of O6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase(MGMT)promoter(P＜0.05).For the IDH wild-type GBM patients receiving conventional therapy,univariate Cox hazard analysis showed gross total resection,methylation of MGMT promoter,initiation of radiation within the 5th to 6th week after surgery,and adjuvant temozolomide(TMZ)chemotherapy ≥6 cycles were favorable prognostic factors for overall survival(OS);GBMs in the left hemisphere,involvement of single lobe,methylation of MGMT promoter,and initiation of radiation within the 5th to 6th week after surgery were favorable prognostic factors for progression free survival(PFS)(all P＜0.05).Moreover,multivariate Cox hazard regression analysis indicated that methylation of MGMT promoter,and initiation of radiation within the 5th to 6th week after surgery,and adjuvant TMZ chemotherapy ≥6 cycles were independent protective factors for OS,and GBMs in the left hemisphere,involvement of single lobe and methylation of MGMT promoter were independent protective factors for PFS in the GBM patients(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The clinical and prognostic features are totally different between IDH mutant and wild-type GBM,and molecular detections are needed for the further pathological classification.Methylation of MGMT promoter is a primary marker of favorite prognosis for IDH wild-type GBM,and slightly delay in radiotherapy(the 5th to 6th week after surgery)can effectively improve the survival prognosis of IDH wild-type GBM.

Objective:To observe the effect of combining robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) with task-oriented training (TOT) on the walking ability of children with dyskinetic cerebral palsy (DCP).Methods:Sixty DCP children were randomly divided into a conventional intervention group, an RAGT group, and a combined intervention group, each of 20. All of the children received conventional rehabilitation therapy, while the RAGT and combined intervention groups were additionally provided with RAGT, and RAGT combined with TOT, respectively. Before the experiment and after 12 and 24 weeks of treatment, the subjects′ walking ability was evaluated using the 10-metre walk test (10MWT), and the D energy zone (standing position) and the E energy zone (walking, running and jumping) of the Gross Motor Function Measurement-88 (GMFM-88) instrument.Results:After 12 and 24 weeks of treatment, the average 10MWT speed and D and E energy zone scores of all three groups had improved significantly. After 24 weeks the combined group′s averages on all three measures were significantly better than those of the other two groups.Conclusion:RAGT combined with TOT and conventional rehabilitation training significantly improves the walking ability of DCP children.

Objective:To summarize the clinical experience of transurethral columnar balloon dilation of prostate (TUCBDP) in the treatment of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH).Methods:A retrospective analysis of 379 BPH clinical data from the Hubei Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine using TUCBDP was performed between June 2015 and June 2018.Their age was (71.3±14.5)years old. The history of disease ranged from 1 month to 36 years. The prostate volume was(47.4±2.1) ml. Preoperative maximum urinary flow rate was (Q max)(9±4) ml/s, postvoid residual urine(PVR) was (123.1±72.4) ml. Their international prostate symptom score (IPSS) was (21±6) points. The quality of life score (QOL)was (5±1) points. The international index erectile function questionnaire (IIEF-5)in 32 patients, who had sex before surgery, was 15±4. We set the time of catheter structure improvement in June 2016 as the boundary, including the early stage (June 2015 to May 2016, 121 cases) and the recent stage (June 2016 to June 2018, 258 patients). In the early stage, the principle of operation is the inner balloon of the catheter to dilate the membrane urethra, and the outer balloon to dilate the urethra of the prostate and the bladder neck. The main surgical steps include the insertion of a dilatation catheter, localization by touching the skin of the scrotum bottom, the inner and outer balloon are filled with water, the first time of drainage and decompression in the inner and outer balloon, the catheter continuous irrigation, drainage and decompression of the inner and outer balloon again, removing the dilatation catheter, and the ordinary urinary catheter was replaced and continuous irrigation. In the recent stage, the principle of surgery is that the inner balloon only served for positioning and fixation. The outer balloon is used to dilate the membrane urethra, prostate urethra, and bladder neck. The inner and outer balloon are drained and decompressed at one time after surgery. The main surgical steps are that the resectoscope was used to examine the bladder and urethra and to guide the dilatation catheter into the bladder. The apex of the prostate touching was used to conform the location. The inner balloon water filling was used for fix the positioning. The inner and outer balloon are filled with water, decompressed and pulled out for urination test, the gland expansion is observed under the resectoscope, and ordinary urinary catheter is replaced for continuous flushing. We observed the changes in Q max, PVR, IPSS, and QOL at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after the operation. the complications differences in two-stage patien, including the International Incontinence Advisory Committee Urinary Incontinence Questionnaire (ICI-Q-SF) score; those who had sex before surgery were recorded changes in the IIEF-5 score, was compared. Results:There were no deaths during and after operation in this study. The operation time was (18.5±6.7) min. The number of follow-up cases at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after operation were 326, 253, 201, 194, and 181, respectively. The Q max at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after operation were (17±9)ml/s, (15±2)ml/s, (12±4)ml/s, (13±6)ml/s and (13±4)ml/s, respectively. The PVR were (17.4± 11.6) ml, (20.6±9.8)ml, (25.4±13.1)ml, (31.5±11.5)ml, and (29.1±12.4)ml, respectively. The IPSS were(7±5) points, (4±4) points, (4±4) points, (6±5) points, (4±4) points, respectively. The QOL were (2±1) points, (2±1) points, (2±1) points, (2±1) points, and (2±1), respectively. All those results that were significantly different from those before surgery ( P<0.05). There were 32 patients who had sex before the operation. The postoperative IIEF-5 score was (17± 6), which was not significantly different from that before the operation ( P>0.05). Two patients had transient retrograde ejaculation, which relieved spontaneously within the 6 month. 4 cases with pseudourinary incontinence in the recent stage (1.5%) were not statistically different from 6 cases (4.9%) in the early stage ( P>0.05). one case(0.4%) of major bleeding in the recent stage was statistically different from 6 cases (4.9%) in the early stage ( P<0.05). 2 cases (0.7%) of patients with acute urinary retention in the recent stage were significantly different from 15 cases (12.4%) in the early stage ( P<0.05). Conclusions:TUCBDP has a positive overall effect and high safety. The major complications of surgery in the recent stage, except for pseudo-urinary incontinence, are significantly lower than that in the early stage, which may be related to the improvement of the catheter structure and the accumulation of clinical experience.

Objective: To establish a quality control model ensuring good stability and compatibility of manually compounded total nutrient admixtures (TNA). Methods: A parenteral nutrition medication order entry system was establish for standardizing nutritional medication usage and supporting physician's TNA prescribing. TNA medication orders were reviewed by pharmacists for validating the stability and compatibility. TNAs were compounded by pharmacists in a standard way following "four factors of sterile compounding" . The goal of quality control was achieved by establishment of the preliminary standard. Results: The quality of manually compounded total nutrient admixtures achieved the goal since pharmacy intravenous admixture service (PIVAS) started on 2003. Conclusions The quality of TNA is well assured while manually compounded by pharmacists in PIVAS.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of real-time visual feedback on improving the quality of manual chest compression in ambulance.Methods Ten pre-hospital doctors with cardiopulmonary resuscitation experience,aged under 40 years,were recruited to this randomized,crossover,manikin research and randomly assigned into control group (n=5) and feedback group (n=5) by the sealed envelope method.The setting place was a moving ambulance with the velocity of 25～50 km/ h.The whole process consisted of two sessions.In control group,which received feedback in the second session,chest compressions were performed without interruption during each of the three 2 min phases per session,resting for 2 min between phases and for 5 min between sessions.In feedback group,which received feedback in the first session,chest compressions were performed without interruption during each of the three 2 min phases per session,resting for 2 min between phases and for 5 min between sessions.Data of compression rate,compression depth,compression detention and compression accuracy rate were collected.Results In control group,the compressions rate was lower and compression detention was shorter during the second session compared with those during the first session [(109.8±±4.7) r/min vs.(121.2± 10.1) r/min,(6.5±2.1) r/min vs.(10.4±2.8) r/min,all P＜0.05],while the compression accuracy rate during the second session was higher than that during the first session [(28.2±±14.3) ％ vs.(16.8±9.9) ％,P＜0.05].There was no significant difference in compression rate between the two sessions in control group;Compression frequency,compression depth,compression detention and compression accuracy rate did not significantly change between the two sessions in feedback group (all P＞0.05).In the whole process,the compression rate was lower and compression detention was shorter in the feedback group compared with the control group [(111.1±5.1) r/min vs.(115.5±9.7) r/min,(6.5±1.8) vs.(8.4±4.6) r/min,all P＜0.05],and the compression accuracy rate in the feedback group was higher than that in the control group[(22.5±13.4) ％ vs.(26.7±16) ％,P＜0.05].There was no significant difference in compression rate between the two groups during whole process (P＞0.05).Conclusions Although real-time visual feed back improved the quality of manual chest compression in ambulances,which demonstrated more reasonable compression rate,less compression detention and higher compression accuracy,the overall quality of reuscitation was still not enough to achieve effective treatment.This implies that more optimal methods are required to transfer the patients suffering cardiac arrest.
