Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of a multimodal treatment regimen integrating radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) -negative locally advanced or advanced gastric cancer.Methods:A total of 34 patients with unresectable, HER2-negative, locally advanced or metastatic gastric/gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) adenocarcinoma admitted to the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Guizhou Medical University from September 2021 to March 2024 were selected as study objects. Participants received one cycle of either XELOX regimen (capecitabine + oxaliplatin) or SOX regimen (S-1 + oxaliplatin) with immunotherapy (sintilimab or nivolumab) . The process was succeeded by radiotherapy targeted at the primary G/GEJ tumor and regional lymph nodes. In selected cases, sequential radiotherapy was also administered for distant metastases. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) , and secondary endpoints were disease control rate (DCR) , clinical symptom response, changes in Karnofsky performance status (KPS) score, progression-free survival (PFS) , and adverse reactions. Clinical efficacy was assessed in accordance with Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. Adverse reactions were assessed and graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0 and the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology guidelines for management of immune checkpoint inhibitor-related toxicity. With a median follow-up of 7 months (range: 2.3 to 30 months) , the final evaluation considered the best response documented throughout follow-up. Survival curves were constructed utilizing Kaplan-Meier analysis.Results:By the end of follow-up, an overall ORR of 58.8% (20/34) and DCR of 70.6% (24/34) were observed. The ORR of lesions by radiotherapy reached 73.8% (48/65) and the DCR reached 92.3% (60/65) . Univariate analysis showed that the ORR of female patients (84.6%, 11/13) was higher than that of male patients (42.9%, 9/21) , and the ORR of patients with distant lymph node metastasis alone (83.3%, 15/18) was higher than that of patients with distant lymph node metastasis combined with organ metastasis or organ metastasis alone (18.2%, 2/11) , with statistically significant differences ( P=0.030; P=0.010) . There were no statistically significant differences in ORR among patients with different age ( P=0.487) , KPS score ( P=0.198) , primary tumor location ( P=0.280) , histological differentiation ( P=0.668) , chemotherapy regimen ( P=0.728) , or immunotherapy regimen ( P>0.999) . Twenty-two of 23 (95.7%) patients with upper abdominal pain were relieved, 10 of 21 (47.6%) patients with appetite loss were relieved, 15 of 17 patients with upper abdominal distension were relieved, 13 of 14 patients with melena were relieved, 6 of 7 patients with eating obstruction were relieved, 3 of 4 patients with metastatic site pain were relieved, and 2 patients with hematemesis were relieved. KPS score enhanced in 82.4% (28/34) of patients, remained stable in 11.8% (4/34) , and declined in 5.8% (2/34) . The median PFS of the 34 patients was 7.9 months. The most common adverse reactions during radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy and immunotherapy were hematological adverse reactions, in which neutropenia accounted for the highest proportion (91.2%, 31/34) , followed by anemia (50.0%, 17/34) . Fatigue was the most common non-hematological adverse reaction (50.0%, 17/34) , followed by nausea and vomiting (26.5%, 9/34) . The adverse reactions of 6 patients receiving immune monotherapy maintenance were anemia, hypothyroidism, transaminase elevation, proteinuria, fatigue, and rash, all of which were grade 1-2. Conclusions:Radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy and immunotherapy shows good short-term clinical efficacy in patients with HER2-negative locally advanced or advanced gastric cancer, and the overall adverse reactions are tolerable. Female or patients with distant lymph node metastasis alone may be the preferred population for this study protocol.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Huangqi Danggui Compound Decoction(mainly composed of Astragali Radix,Angelicae Sinensis Radix,etc.)combined with Shi's Acupuncture Therapy in the treatment of postpartum low back pain due of qi and blood depletion type.Methods A total of 138 patients diagnosed with postpartum low back pain from March 2021 to February 2024 in the outpatient and inpatient departments of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University of Chinese Medicine were selected as the study subjects.The patients were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group using a random number table,with 69 cases in each group.The control group was treated with Ibuprofen Sustained-Release Capsules combined with Shi's Acupuncture Therapy,while the observation group was additionally treated with Astragalus and Angelica Compound Decoction on the basis of the control group's treatment.Both groups were treated for 4 weeks.After treatment,the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated.The changes in Oswestry Disability Index(ODI)and Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)scores before and after treatment,as well as the SF-36 Quality of Life Scale scores,were observed.The changes in follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH),luteinizing hormone(LH),and estradiol(E2)levels were compared before and after treatment,and the safety and incidence of adverse reactions in the two groups were evaluated.Results(1)The total effective rate in the observation group was 92.75%(64/69),while it was 79.71%(55/69)in the control group.The efficacy of the observation group was superior to that of the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).(2)After treatment,the ODI and VAS scores of both groups were significantly improved(P＜0.05),and the observation group showed significantly better improvement in ODI and VAS scores compared to the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).(3)After treatment,the SF-36 Quality of Life Scale scores of both groups improved significantly(P＜0.05),and the observation group showed significantly better improvement in SF-36 scores compared to the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).(4)After treatment,the FSH,LH,and E2 levels in the observation group were significantly improved(P＜0.05),and the observation group showed significantly better improvement in FSH,LH,and E2 levels compared to the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).In the control group,the FSH,LH,and E2 levels improved slightly,but there was no statistically significant difference compared to before treatment(P＞0.05).(5)There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the observation group and the control group(P＞0.05).Conclusion Huangqi Danggui Compound Decoction combined with Shi's Acupuncture Therapy in the treatment of postpartum low back pain due to qi and blood depletion can significantly alleviate pain symptoms,improve lumbar function,regulate sex hormone levels,and enhance the quality of life of patients,with significant efficacy and good safety.

Objective:To explore the pattern of lymph node metastasis and prognosis in locally advanced gastric cancer after neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy (NICT).Methods:This retrospective study included pathologically confirmed gastric adenocarcinoma (cT3-4aN+) patients who underwent radical resection after ≥2 cycles of PD-1 inhibitor-based chemotherapy with complete postoperative pathology. Exclusions: distant/other metastases, non-R0 resection, Her-2+ with targeted therapy, microsatellite instability, or esophagogastric junction cancer invading >1 cm into lower esophagus. From January 2020 to December 2024, a total of 343 consecutive gastric cancer patients who received NICT treatment were admitted to Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital. According to the above criteria, 324 cases were included in the lymph node metastasis analysis, and 302 cases were included in the survival analysis. The median age of all patients was 58 years, with 245 males (75.6%) and a median body mass index (BMI) of 22.9 kg/m2. There were 170 cases (52.5%) at T3 stage and 154 cases (47.5%) at T4a stage; the median number of cycles of neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy was 3 cycles. The primary outcome measure was the positive lymph node metastasis rate (number of metastatic cases in the group / total number of dissected cases in the group×100%). A positive lymph node metastasis rate >10% was defined as high metastasis, and <5% as low metastasis. The secondary outcome measures were high-risk factors for lymph node metastasis and influencing factors related to patient prognosis. Lymph node grouping was performed according to the 8th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) guidelines. The positive lymph node metastasis rate was statistically analyzed by stratification based on surgical methods (total gastrectomy, proximal gastrectomy, distal gastrectomy). Multivariate analysis of risk factors for lymph node metastasis were performed with logistic regression analysis, and survival analysis were performed with the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression model.Results:The postoperative pathological complete response rate (pCR) of all patients was 21.0% (68/324), and the overall positive lymph node metastasis rate was 48.8% (158/324). A total of 150 patients underwent total gastrectomy, 42 underwent proximal gastrectomy, and 132 underwent distal gastrectomy.In the total gastrectomy group: the high metastasis subgroups were No.1 (19.3%, 29 cases), No.2 (14.7%, 22 cases), No.3 (28.0%, 42 cases), No.7 (12.7%, 19 cases), No.8a (16.0%, 24 cases), and No.9 (17.3%, 26 cases); the low metastasis subgroups were No.5 (4.7%, 7 cases), No.10 (3.3%, 5 cases), No.11d (1.3%, 2 cases), and No.12a (4.0%, 6 cases).In the proximal gastrectomy group: the high metastasis subgroups were No.3 (14.3%, 6 cases), No.7 (23.8%, 10 cases), and No.11p (11.9%, 5 cases); the low metastasis subgroups were No.4d (2.4%, 1 case) and No.10 (2.4%, 1 case).In the distal gastrectomy group: the high metastasis subgroups were No.3 (25.8%, 34 cases), No.6 (26.5%, 35 cases), No.7 (11.4%, 15 cases), and No.11p (11.4%, 15 cases); the low metastasis subgroups were No.4sb (3.8%, 5 cases) and No.12a (4.5%, 6 cases).Results of multivariate analysis showed that TRG grade (HR: 5.938, 95%CI: 3.028-11.646, P<0.001) was an independent factor affecting lymph node metastasis in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer after neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy. The median follow-up time was 26.0 (6.0-54.3) months, and the 3-year overall survival (OS) of all patients was 78.1%. Results of multivariate Cox analysis showed that ypT (HR=1.744, 95%CI: 1.300-2.338, P<0.001), ypN (HR=1.998, 95%CI: 1.503-2.655, P<0.001), and postoperative complications (HR=1.913, 95%CI: 1.111-3.294, P=0.019) were independent factors affecting the overall survival of patients with locally advanced gastric cancer after neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy. Conclusion:NICT significantly changes the pattern of lymph node metastasis in LAGC. ypT and ypN stages are core indicators for survival prognosis. The necessity of dissection for lymph node groups with a metastasis rate <5% needs to be carefully evaluated.

Objective To discuss the factors influencing the occurrence of frailty in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI)after receiving interventional treatment,and to construct a prediction model,to draw a nomogram,and to make the validation of the model.Methods Using convenient sampling method,a total of 462 patients with AMI,who were admitted to the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine of three Grade Ⅲ-A hospitals in Shandong Province of China from July 2023 to January 2024,were selected as the study subjects.Among them,324 AMI patients encountered from July 2023 to November 2023 were selected as modeling group,and logistic regression was used to construct a risk prediction model and draw a nomogram to visualize the model.The remaining 138 AMI patients encountered from December 2023 to January 2024 were used as the validation group.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and Hosmer-Lemeshow testing were adopted to verify the predictive effect of the model.Results Of 324 patients in the modeling group,170(52.47％)developed frailty.Univariate analysis showed that significant differences in age,education level,body mass index(BMI),Charlson comorbidity index,grip strength,walking speed,brain natriuretic peptide precursor level,physical exercise,multiple medication,and kinesophobia existed between the two groups(all P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age,BMI,Charlson comorbidity index,grip strength,walking speed,NT-ProBNP precursor level,physical exercise,multiple medication,and kinesophobia were the influencing factors of frailty in patients with AMI after receiving interventional treatment,with an OR value of 1.061,0.630,1.529,0.931,0.005,0.358,1.783,2.929,and 0.497 respectively.The above nine factors were used as independent variables to draw the nomogram,the area under ROC curve of the model was 0.851(95％CI:0.809-0.892),the optimal critical value was 0.562,the sensitivity was 84.1％,and the specificity was 72.1％.Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit testing showed that the model had anx2=12.957 and P=0.113.Conclusion The frailty condition of AMI patients after receiving interventional treatment is at a low to medium levels.The frailty risk prediction model constructed in this study has good prediction effect,which can provide guidance for clinical nurses to timely identify high-risk patients and to promptly adopt interventional measures.

Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.

Objective An autoregressive integrated moving average model(ARIMA)was established to predict the incidence of tuberculosis in Heze in 2022.Methods Based on the monthly registered incidence of tuberculosis patients in Heze city from 2010 to 2020,the optimal ARIMA model was established to predict the incidence in 2021 and compare with the actual value,so as to evaluate the prediction effect and predict the incidence trend in 2022.Results The incidence of tuberculosis in Heze city showed a decreasing trend year by year,with certain seasonal changes.The optimal model was ARIMA(0,1,1)(1,1,1)12,the fitting results showed that the overall prediction error rate was 2.59%and the mean absolute percentage error was 17.76%in 2021.The number of cases predicted in 2022 was 1644,which continued to show a downward trend and the epidemic situation was stable.Conclusion ARIMA(0,1,1)(1,1,1)12 model can better predict the short-term incidence trend of tuberculosis in Heze city,but it should be modified according to the changes of monitoring data to improve the prediction accuracy.

Objectives:To investigate the association of trajectories of atherogenic index of plasma(AIP)with the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease(ASCVD). Methods:A total of 51 831 employees and retirees who participated in Kailuan Group health examination for three consecutive times from 2006 to 2010 were included in this study.AIP was calculated using the log(triglycerides[TG]/high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol[HDL-C])formula.AIP trajectory models were fitted by the SAS Proc Traj program,and according to AIP trajectory,the subjects were divided into low stability group(n=11 114),low to moderate stability group(n=21 647),medium to high stability group(n=13 659),and high stability group(n=5 411).Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the cumulative incidence of ASCVD in different groups and compared by log-rank test.Cox proportional risk regression model was used to analyze the effects of different AIP trajectories on ASCVD risk. Results:Finally,51 831 patients were included in the analysis.During a mean follow-up of(10.19±2.22)years,5 142(9.92%)subjects developed ASCVD,4 013(7.74%)subjects died.Cox regression analysis after adjusting for confounding factors showed:compared with the low stability group,the risk of ASCVD increased by 13%(HR=1.13,95%CI:1.04-1.23,P=0.003)and 20%(HR=1.20,95%CI:1.10-1.31,P＜0.001)and 41%(HR=1.41,95%CI:1.27-1.57,P＜0.001)in the low to moderate stability group,moderate to high stability group and high stability group,respectively,and the risk increased gradually(Ptrend＜0.001).Stratified analysis showed that the risk of ASCVD in people aged＜65 years and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)＜3.4 mmol/L with long-term high levels of AIP was higher than that in people aged≥65 years and LDL-C≥3.4 mmol/L(both Pinteraction＜0.01). Conclusions:In Kailuan Study cohort,those with long-term high levels of AIP had a higher risk of ASCVD,and the risk gradually increased.In addition,we found that the risk of ASCVD in people with long-term high levels of AIP was higher in＜65 years old than in≥65 years old,and the risk of ASCVD in people with LDL-C＜3.4 mmol/L was higher than that in people with LDL-C≥3.4 mmol/L.

Objective To analyze the effect of extended care in patients with gestational heart disease under the mode of multi-disciplinary team(MDT).Methods A total of 116 patients with gestational heart disease admitted to Liaocheng Second People's Hospital from June 2020 to June 2022 were selected as the study objects,and the patients were divided into observation group and control group according to nursing method,with 58 patients in each group.All the patients delivered in our hospital,and the control group received routine clinical intervention after delivery.The observation group was given continuous nursing intervention under MDT mode,including team building,intervention implementation and psychological nursing.First,a management team was established and a WeChat group was formed.The team members include 1 deputy chief physician of obstetrics,1 deputy chief physician of cardiology,1 dietitian,1 psychotherapist,1 head nurse of obstetrics,1 head nurse of cardiology,3 responsible nurses of obstetrics and 3 responsible nurses of cardiology.Then the nursing intervention was divided into 3 stages:prenatal,postpartum,and postpartum.Finally,in the hospital and during the follow-up,we communicated with the patients to understand their basic situation,provided targeted guidance,and directed them to shift their attention from negative emotions.Both groups were treated for 6 months.The self-rated abilities for health practices scale(SRAHP)was used to evaluate the patient's health behavior ability(including nutrition status,exercise,health responsibility,and psychological well-being),and atrial fibrillation-quality of life-18(AF-QoL-18)was used to evaluate the patient's quality of life(including physiological,psychological,and sexual function).Cervical local microcirculation(including blood perfusion,capillary tube diameter,microvascular tube diameter),postpartum blood loss at 2 hours and 24 hours,postpartum hospital stay,maternal and infant adverse outcomes(including postpartum hemorrhage,heart failure,maternal death,neonatal death)of the two groups were observed.Results After intervention,all SRAHP scores,AF-QoL-18 scores and cervical local microcirculation levels in both groups were significantly improved compared to before intervention,and the above indexes in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group after intervention[nutrition score:25.06±2.31 vs.19.72±2.68,exercise score:25.54±1.45 vs.19.14±3.65,health responsibility score:24.17±2.33 vs.20.54±2.52,psychological well-being score:25.03±1.62 vs.21.34±3.35,blood perfusion(mL/min):1.10±0.18 vs.0.44±0.15,capillary tube diameter(μm):5.94±0.45 vs.3.41±0.67,microvascular tube diameter(μm):56.59±2.13 vs.44.12±3.78,physiological score:3.86±1.13 vs.3.41±1.04,psychological score:4.13±0.64 vs.3.67±1.42,sexual function score:4.02±0.67 vs.3.78±0.75,all P<0.05].The amount of postpartum blood loss at 2 hours and 24 hours in the observation group was reduced compared to the control group[2 hours postnatal(mL):95.26±10.53 vs.142.74±18.45,24 hours postnatal(mL):183.61±17.54 vs.262.19±38.56,both P<0.05],and the postpartum hospital stay was shorter than the control group(days:5.07±1.48 vs.8.12±2.45,P<0.05),the total incidence of adverse outcomes was lower than that of the control group[1.72%(1/58)vs.12.07%(7/58),P<0.05].Conclusion The continuous nursing intervention under the mode of MDT cooperation can enhance the ability of healthy behavior,improve cervical local microcirculation,promote postpartum recovery,reduce adverse outcomes of maternal and infant,and improve the quality of life of pregnant heart disease patients to a certain extent.
