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.

This consensus was developed by the Orthodontic Society of the Chinese Stomatological Association to provide a systematic, scientific, and practical guideline for informed consent in orthodontic care. Orthodontic treatment is typically lengthy, highly individualized, and involves multiple factors such as growth and development, occlusal function, and facial esthetics. Rapid technological advances and diverse risk profiles make the traditional reliance on orthodontist experience or institutional templates insufficient to ensure patients′ full understanding and autonomous decision-making. To address this, the expert panel conducted extensive reviews of domestic and international guidelines, analyzed representative dispute cases, and performed multicenter patient-clinician surveys. Using a multi-round Delphi method, the group established a standardized informed consent framework covering the initial consultation, treatment, and retention phases. The consensus emphasizes that informed consent is not only a fundamental legal and ethical requirement but also a key step in building trust, improving patient compliance, and enhancing treatment satisfaction. Orthodontists should clearly and comprehensively explain treatment plans, potential risks, uncertainties, and associated costs, while respecting the autonomy of patients or guardians, and maintain continuous communication and dynamic evaluation throughout the treatment process. The release of this consensus provides unified and authoritative guidance for clinical orthodontics, helping to standardize informed consent, enhance its transparency, safeguard patient rights, reduce medical risks, and promote high-quality, sustainable development of orthodontic practice.

Osteonecrosis of the femoral head(ONFH)is a disabling orthopedic disease,pathologically characterized by progressive collapse of the femoral head accompanied by destruction of the trabecular and articular cartilage structures,leading to hip joint pain and progressive functional impairment.Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles(BMSC-EVs)show great promise in tissue repair and regeneration,with low immunogenicity and tumorigenicity,and play roles in osteogenesis,angiogenesis,and immunomodulation.This review summarizes the therapeutic effects and underlying mechanisms of BMSC-EVs in ONFH,providing a theoretical basis for its treatment.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of action of the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2)/solute carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11)/glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4)signaling pathway in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD),and to explore the mechanism of Gegen QinLian Decoction for the treatment of NAFLD,using in vivo and in vitro experiments.Methods Rats were fed with high-fat chow for 24 weeks to induce NAFLD,and were then divided randomly into normal(C),model(M),high-,medium-,and low-dose Gegen QinLian Decoction(GGQLT-H,GGQLT-M,GGQLT-L),and metformin(Met)groups.From week 25 onwards,the rats were administered the corresponding drugs by gavage for 2 weeks according to the grouping,until sampling.Levels of the oxidative stress markers malondialdehyde(MDA)and glutathione(GSH)in the liver tissues were measured in each group using biochemical kits and ferrous iron(Fe2+)in rat liver tissues was detected using a Fe2+kit.Nrf2,heme oxygenase-1(HO-1),SLC7A11,glutathione synthetase(GSS),GPX4,and acyl coenzyme A synthetase 4(ACSL4)mRNA levels in rat liver tissues were measured by reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction.For cellular experiments lipid acc umulation was induced in HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma cells using 1 mmol/L free fatty acid,to mimic the NAFLD in vitro model.Different concentrations of Gegen QinLian Decoction and metformin-containing serum were added for treatment.Lipid accumulation was detected in the cells in each group by Oil red O staining.The MDA and GSH contents of HepG2 cells in the different groups were determined using appropriate kits,and the ferrous contents were detected using a cell-specific ferrous kit.Expression levels of Nrf2,HO-1,SLC7A11,GSS,GPX4,and ACSL4 mRNA was detected in each group of cells using reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction.Results In the animal experiments,MDA and Fe2+liver levels were significantly higher in the M group than in the C group,while GSH levels were significantly lower(P＜0.01).GGQLT-H,GGQLT-M and Met groups showed significantly reduced MDA and Fe2+and elevated GSH levels compared with the M group(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).High-and medium-dose Gegen QinLian Decoction and metformin increased Nrf2,HO-1,GSS,and GPX4 mRNA and decreased ACSL4 mRNA expression levels(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).In cellular experiments,lipid droplets were significantly increased in the HepG2 cell M group compared with those in the C group,and lipid droplets were significantly reduced by Gegen QinLian Decoction and metformin.MDA and Fe2+levels were significantly increased and GSH levels were significantly decreased in the HepG2 M group compared with the levels in the C group(P＜0.01),while all doses of Gegen QinLian Decoction and metformin significantly decreased MDA and Fe2+levels(P＜0.01)and increased the GSH content(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).Nrf2,GSS,GPX4,and SLC7A11 mRNA expression levels in the GGQLT-H group,Nrf2,HO-1,and SLC7A11 in the GGQLT-L group,HO-1,SLC7A11,and GSS in the GGQLT-M group,and GSS,Nrf2,and HO-1 in the Met group were all significantly increased compared with the findings in the M group(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).ACSL4 mRNA expression levels were significantly decreased in the GGQLT-M and GGQLT-L groups and the Met group(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).Conclusions Gegen QinLian Decoction can improve NAFLD by inhibiting ferroptosis,and its mechanism may he related to regulation of the Nrf2/SLC7A 11/GPX4 signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the expressions of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) homeobox A11 antisense RNA (HOXA11-AS) and lymphoid enhancer-binding factor 1 antisense RNA 1 (LEF1-AS1) in hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and their relationships with prognosis.Methods:Prospectively, 80 patients with hypopharyngeal carcinoma who were treated in Handan Central Hospital from February 2019 to February 2021 were selected. The hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues resected surgically and the adjacent normal tissues (more than 2 cm away from the edge of the cancer tissue) were obtained. The expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 in hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and adjacent normal tissues were compared. The relationships between their expressions and clinicopathological features were analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the relationships between high/low expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 and the prognosis of patients with hypopharyngeal carcinoma.Results:The expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 in hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues were higher than those in adjacent normal tissues (all P<0.05). The expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 in hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues were related to tumor node metastasis (TNM) stage, degree of differentiation, and lymph node metastasis (all P<0.05). The 3-year overall survival rates of patients with high expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 in hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues were lower than those of patients with low expressions (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 are increased in hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues, which are related to poor prognosis of patients with hypopharyngeal carcinoma.

ObjectiveTo analyze the differences in color， odor and volatile components of Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium（CRP） before and after being stir-fried with Halloysitum Rubrum， and to explore the material basis of enhancing the effect of strengthening spleen after processing and the scientific connotation of decoction pieces processed with Halloysitum Rubrum as the auxiliary material. MethodsThe volatile components of the samples before and after processing were identified and relatively quantified by headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（HS-GC-MS）， and the volatile components were analyzed by principal component analysis（PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA）. According to the principle of variable importance in the projection（VIP） value>1.5， volatile differential components before and after processing were screened. 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 analyze the tumor characteristics associated with achieving pathological complete response(pCR) and tumor prognosis in the patients undergoing laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy(nCRT). Methods A retrospective review was conducted on clinical and pathological data of locally advanced rectal cancer(LARC) patients who underwent nCRT at Renji Hospital from January 2017 to January 2024. Factors influencing the achievement of pCR were analyzed, and the patients prognosis of pCR group and non-pCR group was compared. Results Univariate analysis, multivariate Logistic regression analysis, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that tumor length less than 5 cm(cutoff value 5.24 cm) and baseline carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA) less than 5 μg/L(cutoff value 5.33 μg/L) were independent predictors of achieving pCR after nCRT in LARC patients. Prognostic survival analysis showed that the 3-year overall survival(OS) rate for pCR group and non-pCR group were 92.86% and 82.46%, respectively (P=0.193), and the 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate were 85.71% and 70.18%, respectively (P=0.141), with no statistically significant differences between the two groups. Conclusions Tumor length and baseline CEA level are independent predictors for achieving pCR after nCRT in LARC patients. Additionally, there were no statistically significant differences in 3-year OS and DFS between pCR group and non-pCR group.
