Objective To explore the effectiveness of the generative large language model MedGo in nursing decision-making for elderly patients with multimorbidity. Methods A quasi-randomized controlled trial study was conducted involving 6 junior nurses, 6 senior nurses and the MedGo model from January 1, 2025 to March 31, 2025 at the Emergency Internal Medicine Ward of Shanghai East Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University. Clinical data of 120 elderly patients with multimorbidity were analyzed to compare the performance of the three groups in four tasks (nursing diagnosis assessment, nursing intervention formulation, complication identification, and complication prevention) from three evaluation dimensions: decision-making time consumption, decision accuracy, and decision-making quality. Results In terms of decision-making time, the senior nurse group completed all four tasks faster than the junior nurse group (P<0.01), and the MedGo group completed all four tasks faster than the junior nurse group (P<0.001) and the senior nurse group (P<0.001). In terms of decision-making accuracy, senior nurse group scored higher than junior nurse group in all four tasks (P<0.001), while the MedGo group outperformed the senior nurse group only in complication identification (P<0.001). In terms of decision-making quality, the MedGo group scored higher than junior nurse group (P<0.001) and senior nurse group (P<0.001) in all four tasks. Conclusions The MedGo model demonstrates advantages of high efficiency, accuracy, and quality in nursing decision-making for elderly patients with multimorbidity; senior nurses outperform junior nurses in decision-making, providing diverse references for clinical nursing decision-making.

Surface proteins play pivotal roles in physiological processes, including cell recognition, signal transduction, substance transport, and immune responses. However, challenges persist in characterizing abnormal surface proteins in disease states and identifying therapeutic targets, due to the low abundance of these proteins within the total proteome and the frequent presence of their complex glycosylation modifications. Recent years have witnessed the vigorous development of chemical proteomics, leading to the successful creation of various chemical probes for the labeling and characterization of cell surface proteins. These techniques have subsequently been applied to the detection of disease surface proteins and the discovery of corresponding targets. Surface protein characterization techniques based on chemical proteomics are discussed herein, focusing on the principles of amino acid-targeted labeling, proximity labeling, and glycoprotein capture. The novelty, advantages, and limitations of techniques such as targeted lysine labeling, peroxidase and photocatalytic proximity labeling, and chemical glycan capture and metabolic glycan labeling are elaborated, and their applications across various biological models and disease types are described, aiming to provide some reference for target discovery and drug development targeting surface proteins.

Objective:
To investigate the effect of auricular therapy on sleep improvement and the GABAergic system pathway in a rat model of insomnia and to explore its possible mechanism.
Methods:
According to the random number table, 60 male SD rats were randomly divided into blank control, model, auricular point sticking, auricular bloodletting, and auricular bloodletting combined with sticking groups, with 12 rats per group. Insomnia was induced by intraperitoneal injection of p-chlorophenylalanine. After establishing the insomnia model, 36 rats were treated once a day with auricular point sticking or bloodletting for 5 consecutive days. After the intervention, the general condition and body weight of rats were observed; the righting reflex test was used to detect the sleep latency and duration; HE staining was used to observe the morphology of hypothalamic neuron cells; and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the GABA and glutamate content in rat serum. Immunohistochemistry(IHC) and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR were used to detect GABA ARα1 and GABA ARγ2 protein and mRNA expression in the hypothalamus of rats, and Western blotting(WB) was used to detect GABA ARα1, GABA ARγ2, GAD65/67, GAT-1, and GABA-T protein expression in the hypothalamus of rats.
Results:
Compared with the blank control group, the model group had a lower body weight, a significantly shorter sleep duration (P<0.05), severe damage to the morphological structure of hypothalamic neurons with disordered cell arrangement, larger intercellular gaps, enlarged cell bodies, and a vacuolated appearance. All the intervention groups had significantly higher body weight and longer sleep duration than the model group (P<0.05). Compared with the other intervention groups, the auricular point sticking group had a longer sleep duration (P<0.05), and the hypothalamic neuron cells in all intervention groups improved, with the auricular point sticking group showing more apparent improvement. The model group had a lower GABA and higher glutamate contents, and GABA ARα1, GABA ARγ2, and GAD65/67 protein expression in the hypothalamus were lower than in the blank control group. In contrast, GAT-1 and GABA-T protein expression was higher, and GABA ARα1 and GABA ARγ2 mRNA expression was lower (P<0.05). The serum GABA content in the auricular point sticking and auricular bloodletting groups was higher, and the serum glutamate content in the auricular point sticking and auricular bloodletting combined sticking groups was lower than in the model group. GABA ARα1 mRNA expression in the hypothalamus of each intervention group was significantly increased, and GABA ARγ2 mRNA expression in the hypothalamus of the auricular point sticking and auricular bloodletting combined sticking groups increased. GABA ARα1(IHC, WB), GABA ARγ2(WB), and GAD65/67 protein expression in the hypothalamus of the auricular point sticking group increased, whereas GAT-1 and GABA-T protein expression decreased. GABA ARα1 and GABA ARγ2 protein expression(IHC, WB) in the hypothalamus of the auricular bloodletting group increased, whereas GABA-T protein expression decreased. GABA ARγ1(IHC) and GABA ARγ2(WB) protein expression in the hypothalamus of the auricular bloodletting combined sticking group increased, whereas GAT-1 and GABA-T protein expression decreased (P<0.05). Compared with in the inventation groups, the serum GABA content in the auricular point sticking group increased, the serum glutamate content decreased, GABA ARα1 and GABA ARγ2 mRNA expression in the hypothalamus increased, and GABA ARα1(IHC), GAD65/67 protein expression increased. In contrast, GABA-T protein expression decreased (P<0.05), and GABA ARγ2 protein expression(IHC) in the hypothalamus of the auricular bloodletting group increased (P<0.05).
Conclusion
Auricular therapy, particularly auricular point sticking, may have modulated the GABAergic system pathway by upregulating hypothalamic GABA ARα1, GABA ARγ2, and GAD65/67 protein expression while downregulating GAT-1 and GABA-T protein expression to alleviate symptoms in an insomnia rat model.

And combined with intelligent sensory technologies such as colorimeter and electronic nose, the chroma and odor information of CRP before and after being stir-fried with Halloysitum Rubrum were identified. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between volatile differential components and chroma values. ResultsA total of 112 volatile components were identified from CRP and CRP stir-fried with Halloysitum Rubrum, of which 84 were from CRP and 97 were from CRP stir-fried with Halloysitum Rubrum. And 7 differential components were selected, including α-pinene, β-myrcene, linalool, sabinene, ocimene isomer mixture, A-ocimene, and δ-elemene. After being processed with Halloysitum Rubrum, the brightness value(L*), yellow-blue value(b*) and total chromatic value(E*ab) of CRP were decreased(P<0.01), and red-green value(a*) was increased(P<0.01), the response values of S4, S5, S10 and S13 sensors were significantly increased(P<0.05), and the response values of S3 and S8 sensors were significantly decreased(P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that α-pinene and β-myrcene were negatively correlated with L* and E*ab, but positively correlated with a*. Sabinene was positively correlated with L* and E*ab. Linalool was positively correlated with L* and E*ab, and negatively correlated with a*. The ocimene isomer mixture was positively correlated with the L*. ConclusionAfter being processed with Halloysitum Rubrum, the appearance color, odor and volatile components of CRP change significantly, and α-pinene, β-myrcene, sabinene, linalool and A-ocimene are the characteristic volatile components before and after processing, which can provide references for the quality evaluation and clinical application of CRP and its processed products.

Objective:To discuss the feasibility and safety of stage I anastomosis and T-tube fistulation in laparoscopic local resection of duodenal tumors.Methods:A descriptive case series study was used to retrospectively analyze the clinical diagnosis and treatment data of 14 patients with duodenal tumors who successfully underwent laparoscopic local resection of duodenal tumors + phase I anastomosis + T-tube ostomy in the Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine and the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from October 2021 to March 2024. The resection and reconstruction steps of laparoscopic local resection of duodenal tumor + phase I anastomosis + T-tube ostomy are as follows: (1) after the safe margin is clear, the duodenal tumor is completely removed in full thickness, and the specimen bag is taken out and sent to frozen section to determine the nature of the tumor and the negative margin; (2) Perforate the anterior duodenal wall below the tumor plane, place a 16# T tube, and fix it with laparoscopic purse string suture. The abdominal wall is led out through the duodenum, and the duodenal T tube fistulation is performed; (3) The duodenum was continuously sutured in a full-thickness transverse shape, and the seromuscular layer was strengthened to form a phase I anastomosis. The nutritional improvement of patients after operation was mainly observed, and the intraoperative situation and postoperative complications were recorded.Results:No conversion to laparotomy, postoperative emergency reoperation, intraoperative and postoperative complications occurred in 14 patients with duodenal tumors who completed laparoscopic local resection of duodenal tumors + phase I anastomosis + T-tube ostomy. The operation time was (225.43 ± 56.54) min, and the intraoperative blood loss was (72.14 ± 74.65) ml. The patient recovered well after operation, and no severe postoperative abdominal bleeding occurred. Postoperative gastrointestinal angiography showed that the anastomotic stoma was unobstructed, and there were no stenosis, anastomotic leakage and other related complications. There was no significant difference in serum albumin [(37.09 ± 3.53) g/L vs. (37.52 ± 4) g/L] and hemoglobin [(100.79 ± 31.93) g/L vs. (103.07 ± 19.6) g/L] between before and 1 week after operation ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:Laparoscopic local resection of duodenal tumor + phase I anastomosis + T-tube fistulation can be used as one of the safe and feasible improved methods for local resection of duodenal tumor to effectively reduce the occurrence of related complications.

Objective:To explore the experience of emotion management and program needs of patients with vasovagal syncope (VVS) from the doctor-nurse-patient perspective.Methods:This study was a phenomenological study in qualitative research. Using purposive sampling method, four medical specialists, four nursing specialists, and 10 patients with VVS from the Syncope Center of Shanghai East Hospital, Tongji University were selected from March to May 2024 for semi-structured interviews. Colaizzi's phenomenological data analysis was used to analyze the data.Results:Theme 1 was the initial perception and experience of emotion management, in which the doctor-nurse perspective included two sub-themes of emotion management met the actual needs of clinical patients and the management program was too specialized and unknown, and the patient perspective included three sub-themes of differences in the ability of individuals to recognize their own emotional state, lack of knowledge related to emotion management, and lack of social support. Theme 2 was the need for emotion management programs, in which the doctor-nurse perspective involved two sub-themes of multidisciplinary cooperation, suitable for clinical operation and follow-up, and the combination of online and offline, and in-hospital and out-of-hospital linkage, and the patient perspective involved two sub-themes of the need for healthcare guidance, easy to operate, and the diversification of forms, personalization, and meeting the needs of different populations.Conclusions:The content of emotion management is relatively unknown to doctors, nurses and patients, and even more so to patients. VVS emotion management work is still in its infancy, and emotion management as a branch of rehabilitation needs to be emphasized for its development, and psychological assessment and intervention work should be incorporated into the routine of syncope rehabilitation.

Objective:To understand the epidemiological characteristics and changing trends of injury-related deaths in local residents in Qingdao from 2014 to 2023, and provide evidence for development of injury prevention and control measures.Methods:The incidence data on fatal injury in residents of Qingdao from 2014 to 2023 were used to describe the epidemiological characteristics of fatal injury by using fatal injury rate, standardized fatal injury rate, proportion, and death order. The average annual percentage change (AAPC) was used to describe the annual change in fatal injury rates, and the trend of fatal injury was analyzed.Results:From 2014 to 2023, a total of 23 533 residents died of injury in Qingdao, with a crude fatal injury rate of 28.74/100 000 and a standardized fatal injury rate of 27.64/100 000. The total fatal injury rate showed a downward trend (AAPC: -5.06%, P<0.05). The top three causes of fatal injury in the residents were road traffic accident (40.85%), suicide (15.80%), and accidental falls (12.92%). In terms of gender specific fatal injury cause, the top one in both men and women was road traffic accident injury. In terms of age specific fatal injury cause, the top one was road traffic accident in the all age groups, except age group 5-14 years with top cause of drowning. From 2014 to 2023, the fatal injury rates of road traffic accident, suicide, and accidental poisoning in the top five fatal injury causes showed a downward trend year by year (AAPC:-7.42%, -6.54%, -13.95%, P<0.05). Conclusions:The fatal injury rate showed a downward trend in the residents in Qingdao from 2014 to 2023. It is necessary to strengthen the prevention and control of road traffic accident injury, suicide, falls in the elderly, and drowning in adolescents.
