Humanistic caring for patients in the operating room refers to providing the whole process of caring medical services for patients in the operating room. In order to standardize humanistic caring services for patients in the operating room of medical institutions, improve the comprehensive service level of the operating room, and enhance the surgical experience of patients, the Chinese Association for Life Care released the group standard " Humanistic Caring Management Standards for Patients in the Operating Room" in December 2023. This article interpreted the basic requirements for humanistic caring of patients in the operating room, the environment and facilities for humanistic caring, the procedures and measures for humanistic caring, and the quality management framework, aiming to assist administrators and clinical practitioners across various levels of medical institutions in accurately understanding and effectively implementing the standard, and to provide essential textual reference and practical guidance for promoting the application of the standard.

Objective:To explore the chain mediating effect of coping style and illness perception between intolerance of uncertainty and fear of disease progression in patients with intracranial aneurysm.Methods:A total of 270 patients with intracranial aneurysms admitted to the neurosurgery department of 2 hospitals in Guangzhou from October 2023 to June 2024 were selected by convenience sampling method. The general information questionnaire, intolerance of uncertainty scale-12, the brief disease perception questionnaire, medical coping mode questionnaire(MCMQ) and fear of progression questionnaire-short form were used to investigate the subjects. Statistical description and Spearman correlation analysis were performed using IBM SPSS 25.0 software, and AMOS 23.0 software was used to test and correct the structural equation models.Results:The total score of fear of disease progression in patients with intracranial aneurysms was 27.50(20.00, 34.00). The total score of intolerance of uncertainty was 23.50(19.75, 29.00). The sores of confrontation, avoidance and submission in MCMQ were 18.69±5.44, 12.00(10.00, 15.00) and 7.00(5.00, 9.00), respectively.The total score of illness perception was 37.23±11.60. Fear of disease progression was positively correlated with intolerance of uncertainty, submission and illness perception ( r=0.614, 0.696, 0.680, all P<0.01). The direct effect of intolerance of uncertainty on fear of disease progression was significant in patients with intracranial aneurysms ( β=0.431, P<0.001). Intolerance of uncertainty indirectly affected fear of disease progression through submission ( β=0.181, P<0.001) and illness perception ( β=0.092, P<0.001). Submission and illness perception played chain-mediating effect in the relationship between intolerance of uncertainty and fear of disease progression ( β=0.103, P<0.001). Conclusion:The intolerance of uncertainty in patients with intracranial aneurysms can positively predict the fear of disease progression. Submission and illness perception played a chain mediating role between intolerance of uncertainty and fear of disease progression in patients with intracranial aneurysms.

Objective To develop a scientific,systematic,and operable healthcare quality evaluation system for Nation-al Regional Medical Centers(NRMCs),providing a theoretical basis and practical tool for objectively assessing their construction outcomes and guiding high-quality development.Methods Based on the classic"Structure-Process-Outcome"(SPO)quality management model,and aligned with national policy directives and the functional positioning of regional medical centers,a pre-liminary set of evaluation indicators was screened and an indicator system was constructed through literature review,policy analy-sis,and field investigations.Guangxi Hospital Division of The First Affiliated Hospital,Sun Yat-sen University was selected as the study subject,and cross-sectional data from March 2023 to June 2025 were collected for empirical application.Results A healthcare quality evaluation system for NRMCs was established,comprising 3 first-level dimensions(Structure Quality,Process Quality,Outcome Quality),10 second-level indicators,and 66 third-level indicators.This system covers multiple aspects,inclu-ding resource allocation,healthcare service efficiency,clinical practices,patient outcomes,and social benefits.Empirical results indicated that the center demonstrated a consistent upward trend in key indicators such as"Proportion of Discharged Patients Un-dergoing Level-4 Surgeries"(O1.2)and"DRG-CMI Value"(O2.1),while"Average Length of Hospital Stay"(P3.1)and"Cost Consumption Index"(O2.3)showed a steady decline.The indicator system effectively revealed the center's progress in en-hancing regional influence and operational efficiency.Conclusion The developed healthcare quality evaluation system is well-grounded in theory and practice,combining scientific rigor with policy relevance,and can serve as a decision-support tool for quality assessment and improvement in National Regional Medical Centers.

Objective To explore the associations of dietary patterns with bone mineral density(BMD)and osteoporosis(OP)in patients with knee osteoarthritis(KOA)in south China,identify the dietary patterns that could reduce the risk of OP,and provide a reference for prevention of OP.Methods Data from 600 KOA patients who were enrolled in the Pearl River Osteoarthritis Cohort(PROC)between April 2020 and April 2024 were extracted,including general characteristics,dietary questionnaire and BMD test.Factor analysis was employed to identify dietary patterns.Scores of dietary pattern were treated as continuous or categorical variables(quartile-based groups).Multivariable linear regression was used to assess associations between scores of dietary pattern and BMD,while the relationships with OP were analysed by binary logistic regression.Results The prevalence of OP in KOA patients was 19.8%.Factor analysis extracted eight dietary patterns:seafood-nuts,livestock-poultry meats,coarse grains-fruits,wheat-eggs,fish-dairy-vegetables,legumes-fruits,rice-wheat flour,and soy-dairy.After adjusting for confounders,it was found that the pattern of coarse grains-fruits was positively correlated with the BMD of left femoral neck and lumbar spine(P<0.01)and the fish-dairy-vegetables pattern was positively correlated with the BMD of lumbar spine(P<0.01).When pattern scores were discretized into quartiles,the legumes-fruits pattern(Q3 vs.Q1)was found in association with a 68.2%reduction in the risk of OP(P<0.05).Conclusion This study has identified that the pattern of legumes-fruits may lower a risk of OP,while the patterns of coarse grains-fruits and fish-dairy-vegetables correlate with higher BMD.The diet patterns are potentially beneficial to prevention of OP.For bone health,a balanced diet rich in legumes,fruits,vegetables,coarse grains,fish,nuts and dairy is recommended.

Objective:To explore the current situation and influencing factors of home care needs of primary caregivers of stroke patients based on the existence-relatedness-growth (ERG) need theory, so as to provide reference for the development of effective intervention programs in the future.Methods:The supplemental sequential mixed methods design was adopted. From December 2023 to June 2024, convenience sampling was used to select the primary home caregivers ( n=210) of stroke patients as study subjects in community health service centers in Guangzhou. The survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, Barthel Index, and Professional Care Needs Questionnaire for Family Caregivers of Stroke. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of home care need scores. In July 2024, 11 primary home caregivers of stroke patients were selected for semi-structured interviews using purposive sampling method. NVivo14.0 software was used for data storage and processing, and Colaizzi 7-step method was used for extracting and summarizing interview data. Results:In the quantitative study, 210 questionnaires were distributed and 202 were effectively collected, with an effective response rate of 96.19%. The total score for home care needs of 202 primary caregivers was (117.31±13.64). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that patients' marital status, history of falls, activities of daily living, caregiver's educational level, average daily caregiving time, and number of caregivers were the influencing factors of home care need score ( P<0.05). In the qualitative study, three themes were distilled, namely the need for disease knowledge and rehabilitation skills, the need for emotional and psychological interventions, and the need for social resource utilization and economic support. Integrating the results of quantitative and qualitative studies revealed that primary caregivers of stroke patients were characterized by congruence, complementarity, and expansiveness in the three dimensions of ERG needs, respectively. Conclusions:The home care needs of primary caregivers of stroke patients present multidimensional and hierarchical characteristics and are influenced by multiple factors such as the functional status of the patients and the characteristics of the caregivers. The quality of community care services should be strengthened, community resource allocation should be optimized, and training programs based on the hierarchy of needs should be constructed to meet the home care needs of primary caregivers of stroke patients.
