Objective To analyse the clinical efficiency of endolymphatic sac surgery (ESS) in the management of Meniere’s disease (MD). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 274 patients with MD who were hospitalized for treatment in Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University from January 2009 to August 2023. All patients received lifestyle management and drug treatment such as diuretics. For those whose conditions were not well controlled 3 to 6 months after the initial treatment, intratympanic glucocorticoid (ITG) or ESS treatment was carried out. Six months after the treatment, the classes of vertigo relief and hearing changes in the patients were evaluated. After adjusting the confounding factors through propensity score matching (PSM), the impact of ESS on the prognosis of MD patients was evaluated. Results Among 274 patients, 194 and 80 patients underwent ITG and ESS, respectively. Eighty patients were enrolled into each group after PSM. Before and after PSM, the rate of patients reaching vertigo relief class A in ESS group was higher than that in the ITG group (P＝0.004); there was no significant difference in hearing preservation between the two groups. Kaplan-Meier curve analysis showed that vertigo relief in the ESS group was better than that in the ITG group (P=0.029); there was no statistically significant difference in hearing preservation between the two groups. Conclusion When the initial treatment for patients with MD is ineffective, choosing ESS is more beneficial than ITG for controlling vertigo.

Objective To analyze the relationship between hypertension combined with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS)and intima-media thickness(IMT)and explore the correlation between the risk of IMT and hypertension with OSAHS patients.Methods Select 50 patients with hypertension and OSAHS patients who were treated in Jiaxing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine during January 2020 to February 2024 as observation group,while 50 patients with simple hypertension were used as control groups to collect two groups of patients'sleep respiratory monitoring disorders(AHI),lowest blood oxygen saturation(L-SaO2)at night,average hemodium oxygen saturation(M-SaO2)at night,dynamic blood pressure 24h,daytime and night's average diastolic blood pressure,IMT,conducting relevant statistical analysis,compares correlation between IMT of two groups and the severity of OSAHS.Results Compared with control group,observation group AHI,IMT,average systolic blood pressure voltage and average diastolic blood pressure increased significantly(P＜0.01),L-SaO2,M-SaO2 decreased significantly(P＜0.01).Observation group AHI and average systolic blood voltage and average diastolic pressure of average systolic blood pressure at 24h,daytime,and night were positively correlated(P＜0.01),L-SaO2,24h and daytime average contraction pressure were negatively correlated(P＜0.05).Observation group AHI and IMT were positive,and L-SaO2,M-SaO2 and IMT were negatively related(P＜0.01).Conclusion Severity of the disease of hypertension combined with OSAHS patients is closely related to patient's blood pressure level and change of IMT.Actively controlling blood pressure and IMT may help improve prognosis of patients,reduce the occurrence of cardiovascular events.The prognostic evaluation has certain clinical value.

Objective: To evaluate the impact of comprehensive nursing based on the behavioral goal attainment model on the clinical intervention effect among elderly female patients with stress urinary incontinence (SUI), so as to provide a basis for optimizing the nursing strategies for patients with SUI and improving their quality of life. Methods: A total of 190 elderly female patients with SUI who were treated in the Department of Gynecology of the First Hospital of Jilin University from January 2023 to August 2024 were selected and randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group. The control group received routine nursing care, while the intervention group received comprehensive nursing based on the behavioral goal attainment model. The 1-hour pad test was used to assess urinary incontinence symptoms. The bio-electrical stimulation feedback instrument was employed to detect the electromyogram (EMG) values in the pre-resting stage and slow-muscle stage for evaluating pelvic floor function. The bladder function scale was utilized to evaluate bladder function. The Chinese version of urinary incontinence ego-efficacy rating scales and incontinence quality of life assessment scale (IQOL) were used to assess self-efficacy and quality of life. The data on intervention compliance and nursing satisfaction were collected by a questionnaire survey. The differences between the two groups before and after the intervention were compared using the analysis of variance for repeated-measures data to evaluate the intervention effect. Results: There were 95 cases in the control group and 95 cases in the intervention group, with median ages were 64.00 (interquartile range, 23.50) and 64.50 (interquartile range, 19.50) years, respectively. The proportion of patients with cesarean section as the last delivery method was 21.05% in the control group and 12.63% in the intervention group. The proportion of patients with moderate disease severity was 67.36% in the control group and 58.95% in the intervention group. There were no statistically significant differences in age, body mass index, number of pregnancies, number of deliveries, marital status, educational level, mode of last delivery and severity of the disease between the two groups of patients (all P>0.05). The analysis of variance of repeated-measures data showed that there were significant interactions between time and group for the urine leakage volume in the 1-hour pad test, the EMG values in the pre-resting stage, the EMG values in the slow-muscle stage, the scores of the bladder function, the self-efficacy scores, and the IQOL scores (all P<0.05). After 12 weeks of intervention, the EMG values in the slow-muscle stage, the scores of the bladder function, the self-efficacy scores, the IQOL scores in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group, while the urine leakage volume in the 1-hour pad test and the EMG values in the pre-resting stage in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The good compliance rate of intervention and the satisfaction rate of nursing in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group (83.16% vs. 60.00%, 90.53% vs. 75.79%, both P<0.05). Conclusion Comprehensive nursing based on the behavioral goal attainment model can improve urinary incontinence symptoms, pelvic floor function, bladder function, self-efficacy, quality of life, and intervention compliance of elderly female patients with SUI.

Objective:To explore the value of blood lactic acid (BLA), procalcitonin (PCT), and total bilirubin (TBil) in the diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of patients with trauma complicated with sepsis.Methods:The clinical data of 151 patients with severe trauma admitted to the Department of Emergency Medicine, Nanxishan Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from July 2019 to August 2023 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into the sepsis group (72 cases) and non-sepsis group (79 cases) according to the diagnosis. They were further divided into the death group (37 cases) and non-death group (114 cases) based on clinical outcomes. Clinical data were compared between groups. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive efficacy of the above indicators, and Spearman correlation analysis was applied to evaluate the correlation between the indicators.Results:The levels of BLA, PCT, TBil, and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score in the sepsis group were higher than those in the non-sepsis group (all P<0.05). The mortality rate of the sepsis group was significantly higher than that of the non-sepsis group, with a statistically significant difference [26/72(36.11%) vs 11/79(13.92%), χ 2=10.024, P=0.002]. The levels of BLA, PCT, TBil, and SOFA score in the death group were higher than those in the non-death group (all P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the areas under the curve (AUC) of BLA, PCT, TBil, and their combination for diagnosing sepsis were 0.745, 0.826, 0.753, and 0.889 respectively; the sensitivity and specificity of the combined diagnosis of sepsis were 87.5% and 72.2%. The AUCs of BLA, PCT, TBil, and their combination for predicting the prognosis of sepsis were 0.644, 0.697, 0.614, and 0.713 respectively; the sensitivity and specificity of the combined prediction of sepsis prognosis were 64.9% and 71.1%. Among the 151 patients, the levels of BLA, PCT, TBil were positively correlated with SOFA score, with statistically significant differences ( r=0.3871, 0.4399, 0.4851, all P<0.001). Conclusions:BLA, PCT, and TBil levels have certain value in the early diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of patients with sepsis. The combined evaluation has the best efficacy and high guiding value in clinical practice.

Intervention in chronically activated microglia-mediated neuroinflammation is a novel approach to treat Alzheimer's disease (AD). The low permeability of the blood‒brain barrier (BBB) and non-selective distribution in the brain severely restrict AD drugs' disease-modifying efficacy. Here, an immunosuppressant TREM2-lowing antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) and resveratrol co-loaded cationic liposome is developed as an immune reprogramming nanomodulator modified by acid-cleavable BBB-targeting peptide and microglia-targeting peptide (Res@TcMNP/ASO) for AD management. Res@TcMNP/ASO can enter brain endothelial cells via D-T7 peptides. Then D-T7 undergoes an acid-responsive cleavage, facilitating the escape of Res@MNP/ASO from endo/lysosomes to cross the BBB. The detached Res@MNP/ASO specifically targets M1-phenotype microglia via exposed MG1 peptides to prompt the simultaneous delivery of two drugs into activated microglia. This nanomodulator can not only restore the immune function of microglia through TREM2-lowing ASO but also mitigate the immune stimulation to microglia caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) through resveratrol, thereby synergistically inhibiting the chronic activation of microglia to alleviate neuroinflammation in AD. Our results indicate that this combination treatment can achieve significant behavioral and cognitive improvements in late APP/PS1 mice.
