Objective:To evaluate the effect of workshop-based incontinence associated dermatitis (IAD) training course for geriatric nurse specialists, and to provide references and evidence for the application of workshop teaching model in specialized nursing training.Methods:The convenience sampling method was used to select 40 participants in the 9th Chongqing Geriatric Nurse Specialist Training Program in May 2021 as the intervention group, and IAD training was conducted using the workshop method. The 42 participants in the 8th Chongqing Geriatric Nurse Specialist Training Program in May 2020 were selected as the control group, who received IAD training through traditional teaching methods. After the training, the achievement of teaching objectives and teaching satisfaction were compared between the two groups using questionnaire survey, and IAD nursing knowledge and attitudes were compared using scales. SPSS 27.0 was used for the t-test and chi-square test. Results:The questionnaire survey showed that the intervention group achieved higher teaching objectives in all dimensions compared to the control group ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the intervention group had higher scores in teaching satisfaction regarding teaching format, interest in learning, practical skills, theoretical understanding, integration of theory and practice, and problem-solving abilities ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the intervention group demonstrated significantly higher scores in IAD nursing knowledge [(11.32±1.56) vs. (9.02±2.26), P<0.05] and attitudes [(37.63±3.54) vs. (32.81±2.97), P<0.05]. Conclusions:The workshop training has been highly recognized by the trainees, contributing to improved implementation effectiveness of teaching, enhancing the scores of IAD nursing knowledge and attitudes. This approach offers a new perspective for training with a practical focus in the specialized nursing field.

Purpose To explore the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS)in the differential diagnosis of gallbladder polypoid lesions(GPLs)(diameter≥10 mm).Materials and Methods A prospective enrollment of 229 patients with GPLs who underwent cholecystectomy in 17 hospitals from December 1 2021 to June 30 2024 was conducted to analyze the relationship between general data,conventional ultrasound,CEUS characteristics and the nature of GPLs.Multivariate Logistic regression was employed to identify independent risk factors for neoplastic polyps,the differential diagnostic value of different indicators was compared.Results Among 229 patients with GPLs,there were 108 cases of cholesterol polyps,102 cases of adenoma and 19 cases of gallbladder cancer.Age(Z=-4.476,P<0.001),polyp number(χ2=15.561,P<0.001),diameter(Z=-8.149,P<0.001),echogenicity(χ2=9.241,P=0.010),vascularity(χ2=23.107,P<0.001),enhancement intensity(χ2=47.610,P<0.001),enhancement pattern(χ2=6.468,P=0.011),vascular type(χ2=84.470,P<0.001),integrity of gallbladder wall(χ2=7.662,P=0.006)and stalk width(Z=-9.831,P<0.001)between cholesterol polyps and neoplastic polyps were statistically significant.Age,location,diameter,echogenicity,enhancement pattern,vascular type and stalk width between adenoma and gallbladder cancer were statistically significant(Z=-4.333,-3.902,-5.042,all P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that hyper-enhancement,branched vascular type and stalk width were independent risk factors for neoplastic polyps(OR=4.563,5.770,3.075,all P<0.001).The combination of independent risk factors was better than single factor and diameter in the differential diagnosis of cholesterol polyps and neoplastic polyps(all P<0.01).Conclusion CEUS can effectively identify the nature of GPLs and provide a valuable imaging reference for the selection of treatment methods.

Objective:To explore the expression patterns of inhibitor of differentiation(ID)family in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia(CML)and analyze their clinical implications.Methods:Quantitative PCR and quantitative methylation-specific PCR were conducted to de-tect the transcript levels of ID2/ID3/ID4 and the methylation levels of ID4 in the bone marrow mononuclear cells of non-hematological ma-lignancies(acting as controls)and patients with CML treated at The Affiliated People's Hospital of Jiangsu University from January 2010 to December 2017.The clinical implications of ID family alterations were further analyzed.Results:ID2 and ID3 expression was significantly up regulated(P<0.001 and P<0.05,respectively),whereas ID4 expression was markedly down regulated in patients with CML(P<0.01).The re-ceiver operating characteristic curve demonstrated that the ID2 transcript level is a potential biomarker for distinguishing CML from controls(AUC=0.895,P<0.001).The frequency of ID4 promoter methylation in patients with CML was drastically higher than that in the controls(P=0.001).Moreover,ID4 methylation was negatively correlated with ID4 expression in patients with CML(r=-0.424,P=0.002).Clinically,CML with high ID2 expression occurred more frequently in males(P=0.040).Patients with low ID4 expression or high ID4 methylation showed a markedly higher frequency of an accelerated phase/blast crisis(P=0.003 and P<0.001,respectively).In addition,patients with CML in an accelerated phase/blast crisis exhibited markedly lower ID4 expression and higher ID4 methylation levels than those in the chronic phase(both P<0.001).Furthermore,univariate and multiple Logistic regression analyses revealed that the ID4 methylation level was an inde-pendent risk factor for CML progression(P=0.007).Conclusions:The ID family was differentially expressed in patients with CML;specifically,ID2 and ID3 expression was significantly increased,whereas ID4 expression was markedly decreased and correlated with ID4 promoter hy-permethylation.Hence,ID4 expression and methylation are confirmed to be associated with CML progression,and ID4 methylation could be an independent risk factor for CML progression.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

This review systematically examines the pathophysiological effects of vasoactive medications on gastrointestinal tract of critically ill patients,the current value and safety of enteral nutrition in this patient's population,summarizes the optimal strategies for implementing enteral nutrition in these patients for clinical reference.

Objective To investigate factors influencing the occurrence of early haematoma expansion(HE)in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage(sICH),to develop a predictive model and evaluate its predictive efficacy.Methods A retrospective cohort of 238 patients with sICH,admitted to General Hospital of Western Theater Command between January 2017 and December 2022,was analyzed.Patients were categorized into two groups based on the criteria of HE exceeding 33%in relative volume or 6 ml in absolute volume:HE group(n=62)and non-haematoma expansion(NHE)group(n=176).Clinical characteristics,laboratory findings,Non-contrast Computed Tomography(NCCT)imaging,and Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS)scores were compared between the two groups.Multifactorial logistic regression analysis was employed to identify risk factors for HE and to model the probability of its occurrence.The R language rms package was utilized to construct a nomogram model for predicting HE in sICH patients,Additionally,the related clinical,NCCT,and GCS models were constructed.The predictive efficacy of each model for HE in sICH patients was evaluated using area under Receive Operative Characteristic(ROC)curve(AUC),and the clinical application value of each model was assessed using accuracy,sensitivity,specificity,and Jordon's index.The Delong test was applied to analyze differences in the predictive values of the models.Results Significant differences in satellite sign,vortex sign,and history of anticoagulant treatment were observed between two groups(P<0.05).Multifactorial logistic regression analysis revealed independent risk factors for HE in sICH patients,including the first CT examination time,homogeneity,history of anticoagulant medication,volume,maximal diameter,hypodensity sign,island sign,satellite sign,and vortex sign(P<0.05).The AUCs for the constructed clinical model,NCCT model,GCS model and nomogram model in predicting the occurrence of HE in sICH patients were 0.672,0.706,0.518 and 0.754,respectively.The nomogram model demonstrated higher accuracy,sensitivity,Jordon's index and AUC compared with those in the clinical and NCTT models.Conclusions The first CT examination time,homogeneity,history of anticoagulant treatment,volume,maximum diameter,hypodensity sign,island sign,satellite sign,and vortex sign are independent predictors of early HE in sICH patients.The nomogram model,constructed with the above parameters,demonstrated high predictive efficacy for HE and holds potential for clinical application.

Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new combination treatment of vinorelbine and pyrotinib in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)–positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and provide higher level evidence for clinical practice. Materials and Methods: This was a prospective, single-arm, phase 2 trial conducted at three institutions in China. Patients with HER2-positive MBC, who had previously been treated with trastuzumab plus a taxane or trastuzumab plus pertuzumab combined with a chemotherapeutic agent, were enrolled between March 2020 and December 2021. All patients received pyrotinib 400 mg orally once daily plus vinorelbine 25 mg/m2 intravenously or 60-80 mg/m2 orally on day 1 and day 8 of 21-day cycle. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS), and the secondary endpoints included the objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), overall survival, and safety. Results: A total of 39 patients were enrolled. All patients had been pretreated with trastuzumab and 23.1% (n=9) of them had accepted trastuzumab plus pertuzumab. The median follow-up time was 16.3 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.3 to 27.2), and the median PFS was 6.4 months (95% CI, 4.0 to 8.8). The ORR was 43.6% (95% CI, 27.8% to 60.4%) and the DCR was 84.6% (95% CI, 69.5% to 94.1%). The median PFS of patients with versus without prior pertuzumab treatment was 4.6 and 8.3 months (p=0.017). The most common grade 3/4 adverse events were diarrhea (28.2%), neutrophil count decreased (15.4%), white blood cell count decreased (7.7%), vomiting (5.1%), and anemia (2.6%). Conclusion Pyrotinib plus vinorelbine showed promising efficacy and tolerable toxicity as second-line treatment in patients with HER2-positive MBC.
