Objective: To explore the dynamic developmental trajectories of college students class belongingness during their college years and its longitudinal predictive effects on depressive symptoms, so as to provide targeted insights for precise campus psychological interventions. Methods: In October 2021 (T1), a total of 4 720 college students from a university in Shandong Province were selected by cluster sampling method and followed up for 3 years. Surveys were conducted annually (T2: October 2022, T3: October 2023, T4: October 2024). The Class Belongingness Scale and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) were used to assess students class belongingness and depressive symptoms. Latent growth mixture modeling was employed to identify trajectories of class belonging, and multinomial Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the predictive effects of these trajectory classes on depressive symptoms. Results: Mean scores of class belongingness across T1-T4 were (73.24±11.95, 74.76±12.25, 75.25±12.38, 77.64±11.63), and the scores of depressive symptoms were [1.00 (0, 5.00), 0 (0, 3.00), 0 (0, 2.00), 0 (0, 2.00)]. The developmental trajectories of class belongingness were categorized into three types: the high-starting ascending group ( 56.61 %), the low-starting descending group (11.91%), and the medium-starting stable group (31.48%). Multinomial Logistic regression analysis showed that, compared to the medium-starting stable group, the high-starting ascending group had a lower probability of developing mild depressive symptoms ( OR=0.27, 95%CI =0.15-0.47) and moderate or above depressive symptoms ( OR=0.29, 95% CI = 0.14-0.60) (both P <0.05). Conversely, the low-starting descending group had a higher probability of developing mild depressive symptoms ( OR=2.31, 95%CI =1.65-3.22) and moderate or above depressive symptoms ( OR=7.49, 95%CI = 3.82-14.69) (both P <0.05). Conclusion Declining trajectory of class belongingness is a risk factor for depressive symptoms, while sustained upward trend may mitigate such risks.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of serum β 2-microglobulin (β 2M) and pro-inflammatory cytokines for post-stroke depression (PSD) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Methods:Patients with AIS admitted to the Department of Neurology, the Affiliated Municipal Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2020 to May 2023 were included retrospectively. At the 6-month outpatient follow-up, the Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) was used to assess depression. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent influencing factors of PSD. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of individual and combined independent influencing factors on PSD. Results:A total of 161 patients were enrolled, including 82 males (50.93%), aged 61.78±11.95 years; 47 patients (29.20%) developed PSD. Univariate analysis showed that the proportion of males, serum β 2M, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein level, and baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score in the PSD group were significantly different from those in the non-PSD group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum β 2M (odds ratio [ OR] 4.257, 95% confidence interval [ CI]1.441-12.574; P=0.009), IL-1β ( OR 1.415, 95% CI 1.116-1.793; P=0.004), IL-6 ( OR 1.262, 95% CI 1.020-1.561; P=0.032), and TNF-α ( OR 1.246, 95% CI 1.021-1.521; P=0.030) were the independent influencing factors of PSD. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of serum β 2M for predicting PSD was 0.753 (95% CI 0.668-0.838), with an optimal cutoff value of 2.255 mg/L. The sensitivity and specificity were 59.6% and 80.7%, respectively. When serum β 2M was combined with IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α for prediction, the area under the curve increased to 0.893 (95% CI 0.837-0.948). Conclusion:The serum β 2M in combination with pro-inflammatory cytokines has good predictive value for PSD.

Myocardial infarction is a serious type of myocardial ischemic disease. Traditional treatments can only alleviate clinical symptoms and cannot repair damaged myocardium. In this review, the application progress of chitosan-based composite scaffolds in myocardial repair and regeneration after myocardial infarction was reviewed. Combining chitosan with polymers, such as natural proteins and natural polysaccharides can mimic the properties of natural myocardial tissue, reducing ventricular wall stress while increasing biological activity and promoting the retention, repair or regeneration of myocardial cells. Combining chitosan with synthetic polymers and nanomaterials can promote the repair and regeneration of myocardial cells, improve the electrophysiological function of the infarcted area and resynchronise cardiac contraction.

A medical image segmentation network (RPR-MLP) based on multi-scale convolution and parallel reverse attention is presented. In the encoder,Res2net modules and tokenized multi-layer perceptron modules are used as the backbone structure to extract multi-scale information and enhance the diversity of semantic features. Meanwhile,the accuracy of semantic information extraction in the decoder is improved through parallel partial decoder. Additionally,reverse attention module re-emphasizes the focus on important regions for further improving the accuracy of segmentation results. The proposed method achieves Dice scores of 0.8967 and 0.8762 on the Kvasir and ISIC 2018 public datasets,respectively,demonstrating its effectiveness and generalization ability in medical image segmentation. Furthermore,when applied to the lung tumor CT image dataset (LungCancer dataset) collected in the study,the proposed network has Dice score,IoU and F1 score of 0.7278,58.83％and 67.85％,respectively,outperforming baseline network (UNeXt) and common CNN (U-Net,AttU-Net,U-Net++and PraNet) by 0.0301-0.0578、3.16％-4.70％,and 6.72％-18.53％,respectively. The study confirms the effectiveness and generalization ability of RPR-MLP network on different datasets,providing important technical support for lung tumor image segmentation.

Objective:To explore the longitudinal trajectory of sleep disorders and their influencing factors in newly diagnosed breast cancer patients, and provide theoretical basis for formulating intervention measures to improve sleep quality of breast cancer patients.Methods:A longitudinal study was conducted using convenience sampling to select newly diagnosed breast cancer patients from Shandong Provincial Third Hospital and Shandong First Medical University Affiliated Provincial Hospital from April 2023 to June 2024. General information questionnaires, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the Concerns About Recurrence Scale (CARS), and the Distress Disclosure Index (DDI) were used for the survey. The Kruskal-Wallis H test and generalized estimating equation models were used to examine sleep disorders and their influencing factors. Results:A total of 473 valid questionnaires were collected. Among the 473 newly diagnosed breast cancer patients, 435 were female and 38 were male, aged (49.5 ± 11.0) years old. The CARS score at admission was (3.00 ± 1.12) points, with concerns about death (0.71 ± 0.67) points and concerns about female characteristics (0.81 ± 0.72) points. The DDI score at admission was (27.00 ± 10.03) points. The PSQI scores at admission, discharge, and one month after discharge were (15.34 ± 3.05), (12.12 ± 3.01), and (10.13 ± 1.78) points, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( H =33.19, P<0.05). The PSQI scores at these three time points were positively correlated with the CARS score and concerns about death and female characteristics ( r values were 0.42-0.79, all P<0.05), and negatively correlated with the DDI score ( r =-0.41, -0.37, -0.31, all P<0.05). The generalized estimating equation model showed that female gender ( β=1.35, 95% CI 0.27-2.30), education level of junior high school or below ( β=1.89, 95% CI 0.24-3.19), severe pain ( β=1.72, 95% CI 0.32-3.12), moderate pain ( β=2.51, 95% CI 0.37-4.66), invasive special cancer ( β=2.57, 95% CI 1.67-4.07), invasive non-special cancer ( β=2.11, 95% CI 1.98-3.12), partial understanding of the condition ( β=1.91, 95% CI 1.23-3.01), concerns about death ( β=1.61, 95% CI 0.17-2.78), and concerns about femininity ( β=1.34, 95% CI 0.37-2.15) positively predicted the sleep quality index in newly diagnosed breast cancer patients (all P<0.05). Non-invasive cancer ( β=-3.82, 95% CI -6.79--3.36), lack of understanding of the condition ( β=-3.96, 95% CI -7.09--4.62), and DDI score ( β=-1.45, 95% CI -2.14--0.15) negatively predicted the sleep quality index (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The overall sleep quality of newly diagnosed breast cancer patients is low, with the lowest at admission and gradual improvement at discharge and one month after discharge. Medical staff should pay attention to high-risk patients who are female, have lower education levels, higher pain scores, poorer pathological types, and partial understanding of their condition.

Objective:To investigate the effects of acupuncture and moxibustion combined with rehabilitation exercises on limb locomotor function, balance function, and quality of life in patients with post-stroke hemiplegia.Methods:A retrospective analysis of clinical data from 60 patients with post-stroke hemiplegia admitted to Zhoushan Hospital between January 2022 and September 2023 was conducted. The patients were divided into a control group ( n = 30) and a study group ( n = 30) based on different rehabilitation methods. The study group received acupuncture and moxibustion combined with rehabilitation exercise, while the control group underwent rehabilitation exercise alone. Both groups were treated for 8 weeks. After 8-week of treatment, clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups. The Fugl-Meyer Lower Limb Movement Scale, Berg Balance Scale, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, Activities of Daily Living scale, and Stroke-Specific Quality of Life Scale were used to assess changes in limb movement function, balance function, gait, neurological function, daily living abilities, and quality of life before and after the 8-week treatment. Results:The total response rate in the study group (93.33%, 28/30) was significantly higher than that in the control group (70.00%, 21/30, χ2 = 5.45, P < 0.05). After treatment, the Fugl-Meyer Lower Limb Movement Scale scores [(28.41 ± 5.06) points] and the Berg Balance Scale scores [(36.56 ± 3.81) points] in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group [(23.76 ± 4.31) points, (27.39 ± 4.57) points, t = -3.83, -8.44, both P < 0.05]. After treatment, the study group demonstrated greater values in step frequency [(85.21 ± 5.26) N], step length [(87.94 ± 5.83) cm], and walking speed [(0.68 ± 0.13) m/s] compared with the control group [(74.52 ± 3.89) N, (78.85 ± 6.17) cm, (0.57 ± 0.10) m/s, t = -8.95, -5.87, -3.67, all P < 0.05]. The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale scores in the study group [(7.17 ± 3.08) points] was significantly lower than that in the control group [(10.28 ± 2.45) points, t = 4.33, P < 0.05]. The Activities of Daily Living scale score in the study group [(64.31 ± 13.38) points] was significantly higher than that in the control group [(50.27 ± 15.46) points, t = -3.76, P < 0.05]. The Stroke-Specific Quality of Life Scale score in the study group [(168.48 ± 23.15) points] was significantly higher than that in the control group [(137.94 ± 20.01) points, t = 5.47, P < 0.05]. Conclusions:Acupuncture and moxibustion combined with rehabilitation exercise significantly benefits patients with post-stroke hemiplegia by improving their limb locomotor function, balance function, and overall quality of life.

Objective To explore the establishment,implementation,and outcomes of an integrated physician-nurse team-based comprehensive management model for breast cancer chemotherapy outpatients,ai-ming to provide a reference for standardized patient care.Methods In January 2019,the Breast Surgery De-partment of Peking Union Medical College Hospital developed an integrated physician-nurse team and estab-lished a full-cycle management pathway covering the pre-chemotherapy,chemotherapy,and inter-cycle phases.This model featured appointment-based scheduling,time-segmented visits,and closed-loop patient management.Key performance indicators-including healthcare efficiency,chemotherapy safety,staffing ratios,and satisfaction levels among patients and healthcare providers-were compared between pre-implementation(2018)and post-imple-mentation(2019)periods.Results Before implementation,patient waited times ranged from 30 to 120(75.40±20.97)minutes,with an annual chemotherapy volume of 8 715 cases.Two ward nurses were routinely redeployed daily to support the chemotherapy clinic.Post-implementation,patients received timely chemotherapy per scheduled appointments without delays,annual chemotherapy volume in-creased to 10 101 cases,and staffing between two chemotherapy units became flexibly adjustable.Ward nurses transitioned from an on-call to a reserve role.Adverse events(chemotherapy-related,catheter-related,and nursing incidents)remained at 0,consistent with pre-implementation levels.Both patient and staff satisfaction scores significantly improved across all domains(all P＜0.05).Conclusions The integrated physician-nurse team-based chemotherapy management model enhances service efficiency,ensures treatment safety,optimizes workforce allocation,and improves satisfaction among patients and healthcare providers.

Objective:To evaluate the impact of postoperative radiotherapy (RT) and associated risk factors on the prognosis of patients undergoing postmastectomy breast reconstruction (PMBR) for breast cancer.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 1593 breast cancer patients who underwent PMBR at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute & Hospital between January 2010 and October 2023. Patients were divided into an RT group ( n = 351) and a non-RT group ( n =1242) based on whether postoperative radiotherapy was administered. The primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS), and the secondary endpoint was the incidence of revision surgery. Propensity score matching (PSM) and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) were used for pairing. Continuous variables were compared between the two groups using the independent samples t-tests, while categorical variables were compared using chi-square tests, and survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze survival influencing factors, and include propensity factors with P<0.2 in univariate analysis into multivariate analysis. Results:In the RT group, there were 3 deaths (0.9%) and 21 cases of disease progression (6.0%); in the non-RT group, 7 patients died (0.56%) and 40 experienced disease progression (3.22%). The median OS was 20.1 months (range: 0.1-164.9), and the median PFS was 19.5 months (range: 0.1-160.9). Pregnancy-associated breast cancer and higher N stage were identified as significant risk factors for OS, while neoadjuvant therapy, absence of adjuvant chemotherapy or endocrine therapy, and higher T stage were significant risk factors affecting patients' PFS. Radiotherapy significantly reduced the survival risk for PMBR patients with pregnancy-associated breast cancer or those receiving neoadjuvant therapy ( P=0.019, 0.027). Compared with other reconstruction methods, implant-based reconstruction was associated with a lower incidence of postmastectomy revision surgery(10.5% vs. 17.0%, P<0.001). Even after radiotherapy, the revision surgery incidence for implant-based reconstruction remained lower than that of other methods (12.2% vs. 14.2%, P=0.591). Compared with other reconstruction types, expander-based reconstruction was associated with an increased incidence of revision surgery (31.9% vs. 10.9%, P<0.001). Conclusions:Postmastectomy radiotherapy can reduce survival risk in PMBR patients with pregnancy-associated breast cancer or who received neoadjuvant therapy, showing positive effects on OS and PFS in high-risk patients. Pregnancy, higher T/N stage, and specific treatment strategies are critical factors influencing the prognosis of PMBR patients. Implant-based reconstruction is associated with a lower incidence of revision surgery, which remains low even after RT, whereas expander-based reconstruction may increase the long-term risk of revision surgery.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of micro flow imaging (MFI) supported by Image Pro Plus (IPP) software for BI-RADS classification of breast nodules and the correlation between its parameters and Ki-67 expression level.Methods:A total of 205 cases of breast solid nodules with ultrasound BI-RADS classification of 4 categories were enrolled in this study. BI-RADS classification, CDFI score, MFI score, CDFI-IPP score and MFI-IPP score by IPP software were performed for each nodule. Ki-67 immunohistochemical staining of invasive ductal carcinoma was performed to analyze the correlation between MFI-IPP-VI and Ki-67 expression levels.Results:The combined BI-RADS classification for diagnosis of malignant nodules had the largest area under the ROC curve, which was significantly higher than that of BI-RADS, MFI-IPP-VI, MFI score, CDFI-IPP-VI, and CDFI score (all P<0.05). The combined BI-RADS classification had the best diagnostic efficacy for the diagnosis of malignant nodules with a sensitivity of 96.4%, specificity of 65.6% and accuracy of 82.4%. In addition, the agreement between experienced and inexperienced sonographers applying MFI-IPP-VI was higher than MFI (Kappa=0.780 vs. Kappa=0.743). The mean value of Ki-67 in invasive ductal carcinoma was 21.93%±16.37%, and Spearman's correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between MFI-IPP-VI and Ki-67 expression level ( r=0.815, P<0.05). Conclusions:MFI-IPP can assist sonographers to classify breast nodules by BI-RADS, providing an effective basis for puncture biopsy. MFI-IPP-VI offers the possibility of noninvasively predicting the expression level of Ki-67 in invasive ductal carcinoma.
