Objective To explore the deeper understanding of the pregnancy and delivery experience of three-child pregnant and matemal women,and to provide a basis for healthcare personnel to provide more systematic,safe,and targeted perinatal healthcare services and care measures for three-child pregnant and matemal women.Methods Purposive sampling method was used to select 17 cases of three-child pregnant and matemal women who were admitted and delivered in a tertiary level-A matemal and child healthcare hospital in Nanjing from August 2022 to June 2023 for semi-structured interviews,and Colaizzi 7-step process of analyzing,summarizing,and refining the themes was used.Results A total of 4 themes were extracted,including determination of willingness to become pregnant,perceived risks of childbirth,perceived benefits to themselves and their families,diversified support needs.Conclusion The establishment of pregnancy intention of three-child pregnant women is affected by many factors.Relevant departments should actively implement the supporting measures of the three-child birth policy;healthcare workers should strengthen perinatal healthcare services for three-child mothers to reduce the risk of giving birth,actively strengthen their sense of benefits related to pregnancy,and establish a whole process of support system to promote the health of mothers and infants.

Objective This study aims to develop a guideline for assessing and maintaining intrinsic capacity in older adults,offer recommendations to professionals regarding these assessments,and encourage the implementation of evidence-based clinical practices across various settings,including communities,hospitals,nursing homes,and other geriatric care environments.Methods An evidence-based approach guided the collection of questions through a lit-erature review.Preliminary recommendations were developed through a systematic search of domestic and interna-tional guideline networks,professional association websites,and comprehensive databases.Subsequently,the recom-mendations were revised,and the consensus was achieved through a round of expert consensus meetings and 3 rounds of expert correspondence,culminating in the formation of the guidelines.Results The developed guideline encompasses 2 aspects and 5 dimensions of assessment and maintenance,comprising a total of 28 questions and 39 recommendations.Specifically,6 questions and 9 recommendations were formulated for the cognitive dimension,5 questions and 7 recommendations for the locomotion dimension,6 questions and 7 recommendations for the vitality dimension,6 questions and 9 recommendations for the psychological dimension,and 5 questions and 7 recommenda-tions for the sensory dimension.Among these,34 are classified as strong recommendations,while 5 are categorized as weak recommendations.Conclusion The guideline offers scientifically robust,acceptable,and comprehensible rec-ommendations that equip the professionals with a foundation for decision-making aiming at preserving the intrinsic capacity of older adults.

Objective To explore the applications and effects of professional training-based peer support on self-management of women with gestational diabetes mellitus.Methods A total of 96 patients diagnosed with gestational diabetes mellitus in a tertiary A-level women's hospital in Nanjing from March to June 2023 were conveniently selected as the research subjects,among which 48 patients with gestational diabetes mellitus diagnosed from May to June 2023 were divided into an experimental group,and 48 patients with gestational diabetes mellitus diagnosed from March to April 2023 were included into a control group.The experimental group received professional training-based peer support based on routine nursing,and the control group received routine nursing.The status of self-management,health literacy,quality of life and blood glucose in 2 groups were compared and analyzed.Results 45 patients in the experimental group and 48 patients in the control group completed the study.After intervention,the Self-Management Scale score of the experimental group was(115.11±9.48),which was higher than(78.46±6.27)of the control group;the score of Health Literacy Scale was(145.38±5.22),higher than(92.19±5.75)of the control group;the Quality of Life Scale score was(79.47±4.11),higher than(60.85±2.80)of the control group;the fasting blood glucose concentration and two-hour postprandial glucose concentration in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group,and the difference between 2 groups was statistically significant(P＜0.001).Conclusion Nursing intervention of the professional training-based peer support can effectively improve the levels of self-management,health literacy and quality of life,as well as reduce concentration of blood glucose.

Objective To examine the changing prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Burkholderia cepacia in 52 hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021.Methods A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were collected from 52 hospitals between January 1,2015 and December 31,2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility of the strains was tested using Kirby-Bauer method or automated antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems according to a unified protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released in the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)guidelines(2023 edition).Results A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were isolated from all age groups,especially elderly patients.The proportion was 11.1％(1 032 strains)in children,significantly lower than the proportion in adults.About half(46.5％,4 310/9 261)of the strains were isolated from patients at least 60 years old and 42.3％(3 919/9 261)of the strains were isolated from young adults.Most isolates(71.1％)were isolated from sputum and respiratory secretions,followed by urine(10.7％)and blood samples(8.1％).B.cepacia isolates were highly susceptible to the five antimicrobial agents recommended in the CLSI M100 document(33rd edition,2023).B.cepacia isolates showed relatively higher resistance rates to meropenem and levofloxacin.However,the resistance rates to ceftazidime,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,and minocycline remained below 8.1％.The percentage of B.cepacia strains resistant to levofloxacin was the highest compared to other antibiotics in any of the three age groups(from 12.4％in the patients＜18 years old to 20.6％in the patients aged 60 years or older).Conclusions B.cepacia is one of the clinically important non-fermenting gram-negative bacteria.Accurate and timely reporting of antimicrobial susceptibility test results and ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance are helpful for rational prescription of antimicrobial agents and proper prevention and control of nosocomial infections.
