Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune disorder characterized by impaired neuromuscular transmission. Thymectomy is one of the therapeutic options for acetylcholine receptor antibody-positive myasthenia gravis patients. The quality of perioperative care is directly associated with surgical safety and patient outcomes. However, there is currently a lack of specialized nursing consensus or guidelines specifically addressing the care of these patients domestically or internationally. To promote the standardization and normalization of perioperative nursing care for myasthenia gravis patients undergoing thymectomy and to ensure treatment efficacy, a panel of 57 experts from relevant fields was convened. Based on evidence-based medicine and clinical practice experience, discussions were held on various aspects including condition assessment, nutritional support, medication management, and airway care, resulting in a consensus with 18 final recommendations by using the Delphi method through two rounds of expert consultation. This consensus aims to provide a scientific reference for the perioperative nursing care of myasthenia gravis patients undergoing thymectomy.

OBJECTIVE To provide standardized guidance for the rational clinical use of antibody-based drugs for the treatment of myasthenia gravis， and to enhance the evidence-based system of guidelines and consensus in this field. METHODS The consensus expert team consisted of 71 multidisciplinary experts from 28 provinces/autonomous regions/municipalities directly under the Central Government. Evidence was systematically retrieved through multiple databases， drug package inserts， and official websites of international and national health administrative authorities， drug regulatory agencies， healthcare security departments， and related industry associations， up to April 30， 2025. Evidence was graded according to the 2014 version of JBI pre-grading system for evidence from intervention studies. Based on full consideration of the current best evidence and multidisciplinary expert experience， the expert consensus recommendations were formulated using a modified Delphi method. RESULTS The Evidence-based expert consensus on the clinical application and pharmaceutical management of antibody-based drugs for the treatment of myasthenia gravis standardized the key points of whole-process pharmaceutical management for four antibody-based drugs approved for marketing in the mainland of China for the treatment of myasthenia gravis （efgartigimod alfa， efgartigimod alfa/hyaluronidase， eculizumab， and rozanolixizumab）. It formulated 37 expert consensus recommendations covering nine pharmaceutical management aspects： drug suitability selection， medication in special populations， administration methods， drug storage， therapeutic drug monitoring and pharmacogenetic testing， immunization management， drug interactions， pharmaceutical care， and off-label drug use. CONCLUSIONS Based on the current best evidence and multidisciplinary expert experience， this consensus establishes a whole-process management framework for antibody-based drugs for the treatment of myasthenia gravis， from clinical application to pharmaceutical management. It provides a scientific basis for the rational and precise use of these drugs in clinical practice， effectively promotes the enhancement of pharmaceutical management efficiency， and helps improve the overall therapeutic benefits for patients.

Objective:Reviewed the scope of the application of time-driven activity based costing(TDABC) in nursing costing, and the connotation of time-driven job costing, the current status of research, and the evaluation of the application effect were systematically sorted out. In order to provide an effective method for the improvement of nursing cost accounting level in China.Methods:In accordance with the scope review methodology of Arksey and O′Malley, the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, CINAHL, SinoMed, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP Database were systematically searched for relevant literature on the application of nursing costingrelated literature on time-driven job costing. The time frame was from the construction of the database to March 1, 2024. Summarization and analysis were conducted independently by 2 trained and qualified researchers, and third-party experts were invited to share decision-making in case of disagreement.Results:Twenty-seven literatures from nine countries were included. A review of the literature revealed that time-driven job costing is used throughout the entire process of nursing costing, and the results of its application include optimizing the allocation of nursing resources, accurately accounting for the true costs of clinical care pathways and processes, and assisting in the analysis of nursing cost decisions.Conclusions:TDABC has been widely recognized internationally, effectively supporting refined cost management and promoting decision-making optimisation. However, the current development of TDABC in nursing costing in China is yet to be perfected. In the future, we should deeply explore the combination of TDABC with the local healthcare system, and promote its wide application in China, so as to achieve the dual optimisation of cost control and nursing quality, and to better reflect the economic and social value of nursing services.

Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy of β-blocker in pediatric patients with congestive heart failure and congenital heart disease,and to provide evidence for clinician.Methods Before-and-after self-control study and randomized controlled trials were retrieved from PubMed,EMbase,the Cochrane Library,CNKI,WanFang,VIP databases,and the search time was from the establishment of the database to October 31,2023.All outcomes included left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),left ventricular fraction shortening,LVFS),left ventricular end-diastolic dimension(LVDD),Left ventricular end-systolic dimension(LVSD),N-terminal proB brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP),heart rate,blood pressure and cardiac function improvement.Results A total of 20 trials involving 1 068 children with heart failure(dilated cardiomyopathy and endocardial fibroelastosis were included.Meta-analysis results showed that the addition of β-blockers(metoprolol succinate,bisoprolol and carvedilol)on the basis of conventional drug therapy for heart failure had significant effects on LVEF[MD=13.06,95%CI(11.67,14.45),P<0.001],LVFS[MD=6.96,95%CI(6.54,7.37),P<0.001],LVDD[MD=-6.43,95%CI(-7.58,-5.28),P<0.001]and LVSD[MD=-8.30,95%CI(-8.83,-7.76),P<0.001]were significantly improved.In addition,blood pressure,heart rate,NT-proBNP and cardiac function could also be improved.Conclusion The combination regimen of β-blockers on the basis of conventional drug therapy for heart failure can improve cardiac function and symptoms of heart failure in children with congestive heart failure.Therefore,it is recommended that β-blockers should be actively used in the conventional treatment regimen for children with congestive heart failure.

ObjectiveTo adapt the Stanford Expectations of Treatment Scale（SETS） into Chinese（C-SETS） and test the feasibility， validity and reliability of its application in patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome（IBS-D） with liver-constraint and spleen-deficiency syndrome treated with traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）. MethodsWe obtained authorisation from the developer of the SETS， and followed the principle of "two-way translation" to translate the SETS by literal translation and back translation to form the C-SETS. Ninety-six IBS-D patients with liver-constraint and spleen-deficiency syndrome were enrolled as respondents and filled out C-SETS before receiving treatment； the feasibility was assessed by the recall rate， completion rate and the duration of filling out the scale； the reliability was assessed by Cronbach's α； the structural validity was assessed by exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis， and the content validity was assessed by correlation analysis. ResultsThe C-SETS consists of 10 items， with the 1st， 3rd， and 5th rating items constituting the Positive Expectations subscale， and the 2nd， 4th， and 6th rating items constituting the Negative Expectations subscale， each of which is rated on a 7-point Likert Scale. The recall of C-SETS was 100%（96/96）， the completion rate was 89.58%（86/96）； Cronbach's α for the Positive and Negative Treatment Expectations subscales were 0.845 and 0.854， respectively； exploratory factor analysis showed that the coefficient of commonality for all six entries was larger than 0.4， and that the six entries could be used by both factors to explain 77.092% of the total variance； validation factor analysis showed that the goodness-of-fit index， comparative fit index， root mean square of approximation error， canonical fit coefficient， and chi-square degrees of freedom ratio took the values of 0.943， 1.003， 0， 0.943， and 0.626， respectively； and the results of Spearman's analysis suggested that the C-SETS had good content validity. ConclusionThe C-SETS has well feasibility， reliability， and validity， which initially proves that it can be used as a tool to assess the treatment expectation of patients with IBS-D with liver-constraint and spleen-deficiency syndrome before receiving TCM treatment.

Objective To investigate the prognostic value of serum bispecific phosphatase 1(DUSP1)ex-pression level in patients with acute pulmonary thromboembolism(APTE).Methods A total of 112 patients with APTE admitted to the hospital from March 2020 to July 2022 were enrolled as the observation group,and 50 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations in the hospital during the same period were en-rolled as the control group.The APTE patients were followed up for 6 months after treatment,and were grouped into a good prognosis group(90 cases)and a poor prognosis group(22 cases)based on their progno-sis.The serum DUSP1 relative expression level and pulmonary embolism severity index(PESI)score were compared among the groups before admission.Spearman correlation was applied to analyze the relationship between serum DUSP1 relative expression level and PESI score.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to analyze the predictive value of serum DUSP1 relative expression level and PESI score on the prognosis of APTE patients.Results Compared with the control group,the serum DUSP1 relative expres-sion level in the observation group was increased(P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in serum DUSP1 relative expression level and PESI score among patients with different risk levels(P<0.05),the serum DUSP1 relative expression level and PESI score in high-risk APTE patients were higher than those in medium-risk patients(P<0.05),and those in medium-risk patients were higher than those in low-risk pa-tients(P<0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that serum DUSP1 relative expression level was posi-tively correlated with PESI score(r=0.561,P<0.05).ROC curve results showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of DUSP1 and PESI score alone for predicting the poor prognosis in APTE patients was 0.789 and 0.867,with sensitivity of 65.8%and 86.8%,specificity of 44.2%and 67.2%,respectively.The AUC of the combination of the two for predicting the poor prognosis in APTE patients was 0.952,with sensitivity and specificity of 92.1%and 75.6%,respectively.Conclusion The serum DUSP1 relative expression level in APTE patients is elevated,and with the aggravation of the disease,the serum DUSP1 relative expression level gradually increases.DUSP1 is an effective indicator for predicting poor prognosis in APTE patients.

Objective:To understand the current status of financial toxicity in patients with heart failure and the factors affecting it, and to provide ideas for making personalized and informed decisions.Methods:Using a scoping review methodological framework, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, Wanfang, and SinoMed Databases were searched and screened for relevant literature on financial toxicity in patients with heart failure, with a timeframe of January 1, 2014-October 31, 2023, respectively. Relevant literature was identified based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, and data were extracted, collected, summarized, and the findings were reported.Results:Ten literatures that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were identified. The results showed 5 cross-sectional surveys, 2 qualitative studies, and 1 each of reviews, mixed studies and commentaries. Heart failure patients generally faced high levels of financial toxicity, the incidence and severity of patient financial toxicity varied somewhat between study outcomes. Factors influencing financial toxicity in heart failure patients included age, education level, family income level, discussion of medical costs with physicians, type of insurance the patient had, and occupational status.Conclusions:In the future, we can develop and apply a specialized assessment tool for financial toxicity in heart failure patients in China, further explore the factors affecting financial toxicity in heart failure patients, and formulate personalized treatment plans and financial support strategies for patients according to the influencing factors, so as to reduce the impact of financial toxicity on heart failure patients.

Mesenteric arteriovenous dysplasia/vasculopathy (MAVD/V) is a rare vasculopathy involving both mesenteric arteries and veins with unique vascular lesions. The diagnosis requires comprehensive analysis with histological and clinically relevant examination data, as well as differentiation from Crohn′s disease and other chronic ischemic bowel diseases. This paper summarizes the clinicopathological features of two cases of MAVD/V and reviews the literature in order to improve the understanding of MAVD/V among clinicians and pathologists.
