Objective To investigate the detection rate of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and influencing factors in the elderly population undergoing physical examination in Nanjing. Methods People who participated in the elderly physical examination in Nanjing from 2018 to 2023 were selected as the study subjects according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Basic information and physical examination results were collected. The t-test and Chi-square test were used to compare the detection status of NAFLD in different characteristic populations, and multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze influencing factors of NAFLD. Results A total of 41 066 people were included in the study, with a detection rate of 39.55%. The detection rate in males (24.12%) was significantly lower than that in females (49.75%) (χ² = 2702.442, P<0.001). Trend χ² test results showed that the detection rate of NAFLD increased gradually with BMI (χ²_trend = 4084.414, P_trend < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that female (OR = 3.055, 95% CI : 2.911-3.206), primary school or below (OR = 1.075, 95% CI : 1.009-1.146), unmarried (OR = 1.107, 95% CI : 1.039-1.179), BMI (18.5kg/m²-23.9 kg/m²: OR = 4.876, 95% CI :3.340-7.119; 24.0 kg/m²-27.9 kg/m²: OR = 15.324, 95% CI : 10.503-22.358; ≥28.0 kg/m²: OR = 37.433, 95% CI : 25.591-54.753), hypertension (OR = 1.095, 95% CI : 1.040-1.153), diabetes mellitus (OR = 1.317, 95% CI :1.250-1.387), and dyslipidemia (OR = 1.574, 95% CI : 1.501-1.652) were risk factors for NAFLD (all P<0.05). Conclusion The detection rate of NAFLD in the elderly population undergoing physical examinations in Nanjing is relatively high. Women, unmarried people, people with low education, overweight and obesity, and people with hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia are the high-risk groups.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of nursing information ability of head nurses in different grades of hospitals in Jiaozuo City, and analyze its influencing variables based on the random forest model, so as to provide evidence-based basis for the construction of nursing information ability improvement strategies and training programs for head nurses.Methods:From August to September 2024, the head nurses of 20 hospitals of different grades were selected by cluster sampling method in Jiaozuo City as the research subjects. General Data Questionnaire and Nursing Information Ability Scale of Head Nurses were used to conduct a cross-sectional survey. Random forest model was used to evaluate the importance of variables, lasso regression analysis was applied to complete the variable screening, and the influencing factors of nursing information ability of head nurses were explored through stepwise multiple linear regression analysis.Results:A total of 305 questionnaires were ultimately collected, of which 297 were valid, the effective rate was 97.38%. Out of 297 head nurses, 6 were male and 291 were female; 49 individuals aged 20-29 years old, 127 individuals aged 30-39 years old, 92 individuals aged 40-49 years old, and 29 individuals aged ≥ 50 years old. The total score of nursing information ability was (139.06 ± 24.62). Random forest model and lasso regression analysis showed that the top 6 variables in terms of importance were the number of years serving as head nurses, participation in information function development, number of academic conferences in the past three years, hospital grade, participating in information training, and chairing or participating in scientific research in the past three years. Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis showed that the number of years serving as head nurses, participating in information training, participating in information function development and number of academic conferences in the past three years had significant effects on nursing information ability of head nurses (t values were -4.66 to 3.81, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The nursing information ability of head nurses in Jiaozuo city is in the middle level, and the nursing information ability of head nurses in different grades of hospitals is different. It is suggested to construct a stepped information ability continuing education framework and a research-information ability coupling development mechanism, and incorporate nursing information ability into the necessary conditions for the appointment of nursing management posts, so as to realize the balanced development of nursing information management ability and the continuous iteration of nursing manager information ability.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a well-accepted therapy for atopic dermatitis (AD). However, there are currently no evidence-based guidelines integrating TCM and Western medicine for the treatment of AD, limiting the clinical application of such combined approaches. Therefore, the China Association of Chinese Medicine initiated the development of the current guideline, focusing on key issues related to the use of TCM in the treatment of AD. This guideline was developed in accordance with the principles of the guideline formulation manual published by the World Health Organization. A comprehensive review of the literature on the combined use of TCM and Western medicine to treat AD was conducted. The findings were extensively discussed by experts in dermatology and pharmacy with expertise in both TCM and Western medicine. This guideline comprises 23 recommendations across seven major areas, including TCM syndrome differentiation and classification of AD, principles and application scenarios of TCM combined with Western medicine for treating AD, outcome indicators for evaluating clinical efficacy of AD treatment, integration of TCM pattern classification and Western medicine across disease stages, daily management of AD, the use of internal TCM therapies and proprietary Chinese medicines, and TCM external treatments.

Investigating the correlation between micronucleus formation and male infertility has the potential to improve clinical diagnosis and deepen our understanding of pathological progression. Our study enrolled 2252 male patients whose semen was analyzed from March 2023 to July 2023. Their clinical data, including semen parameters and age, were also collected. Genetic analysis was used to determine whether the sex chromosome involved in male infertility was abnormal (including the increase, deletion, and translocation of the X and Y chromosomes), and subsequent semen analysis was conducted for clinical grouping purposes. The participants were categorized into five groups: normozoospermia, asthenozoospermia, oligozoospermia, oligoasthenozoospermia, and azoospermia. Patients were randomly selected for further study; 41 patients with normozoospermia were included in the control group and 117 patients with non-normozoospermia were included in the study group according to the proportions of all enrolled patients. Cytokinesis-block micronucleus (CBMN) screening was conducted through peripheral blood. Statistical analysis was used to determine the differences in micronuclei (MNi) among the groups and the relationships between MNi and clinical data. There was a significant increase in MNi in infertile men, including those with azoospermia, compared with normozoospermic patients, but there was no significant difference between the genetic and nongenetic groups in azoospermic men. The presence of MNi was associated with sperm concentration, progressive sperm motility, immotile spermatozoa, malformed spermatozoa, total sperm count, and total sperm motility. This study underscores the potential utility of MNi as a diagnostic tool and highlights the need for further research to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of male infertility.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Objective:To evaluate the impact of donor characteristics on the prognosis of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients undergoing haplo-identical transplantation (HIDT) .Methods:A retrospective analysis of 203 MDS patients who received HIDT was conducted to evaluate how donor factors influenced transplant outcomes.Results:In MDS patients undergoing haploidentical transplantation, donors over 50 years were associated with higher EBV reactivation (2-year cumulative incidence 42.9% vs 22.0% for <50 years old; P=0.010). Female donors were linked to increased severe chronic GVHD compared with male donors (2-year incidence 11.9% vs 4.0% ; P=0.017). Additionally, 2-year overall survival (OS) was slightly lower with female donors than male donors (56.6% vs 69.7% ), but the difference was not statistically significant ( P=0.073). Donor-recipient blood type did not affect post-transplant OS or cumulative relapse rates. Donor-recipient kinship analysis revealed that child donors, compared to haploidentical sibling or parent donors, had lower rates of grade Ⅱ–Ⅳ acute GVHD (27.2% vs 45.7% vs 53.5%, P=0.007) and 2-year EBV reactivation (13.9% vs 29.3% vs 38.9%, P=0.001). For donors under 20 years, donor gender did not significantly affect 2-year OS ( P=0.913), relapse-free survival ( P=0.716), or 100-day incidence of grade Ⅱ–Ⅳ acute GVHD ( P=0.359) . Conclusion:For MDS patients undergoing HIDT, donors over 50 should be avoided. Male and child donors are preferred, while donor gender does not significantly affect outcomes if the donor is under 20 years old.

Objective:To characterize fine motor function in middle-aged and elderly individuals utilizing a novel wearable inertial motion capture device.Additionally, it seeks to investigate the relationship between fine motor deficits and overall cognitive function, as well as various cognitive dimensions.Methods:Participants aged 50 years and older were recruited between November 2022 and April 2023.The Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale(MoCA)was employed to evaluate the cognitive function of the subjects, and a radar chart was utilized to illustrate the extent of impairment across different cognitive dimensions.An independent computerized fine motor evaluation system was developed using the motion capture technology of a novel wearable microelectromechanical system(MEMS)inertial sensor, enabling a quantitative assessment of fine motor skills.The differences in fine motor function characteristics between the two groups were compared.Spearman's correlation analysis and multivariate logistic regression were conducted to examine the relationship between fine motor deficits and cognitive dysfunction.Results:A total of 289 participants were recruited, among whom 140(48.4%)were classified into the cognitive impairment group.The mean MoCA scores for the cognitive impairment group and the non-cognitive impairment group were 22.2 ± 2.79 and 27.7 ± 1.19, respectively( P<0.001).The electronic assessment of fine motor function revealed that the motion parameters of hand function in the cognitive impairment group were significantly poorer across all three numerical evaluation tasks.Spearman's correlation analysis demonstrated a robust correlation between deficits in fine motor function and cognitive dysfunction.Furthermore, in the multiple logistic regression model, after adjusting for potential confounding factors including age, gender, and education level, a significant association between cognitive dysfunction and fine motor dysfunction persisted. Conclusions:A novel wearable motion capture technology was employed to facilitate the digital assessment of fine motor function.The findings revealed a significant correlation between deficits in fine motor function and cognitive dysfunction among middle-aged and elderly populations.
