Objective To investigate the perioperative outcomes and postoperative pregnancy outcomes of patients with intrauterine adhesions(IUA)treated by see-and-treat hysteroscopy and traditional hysteroscopy in transcervical resection of adhesions(TCRA).Methods A retrospective cohort study was performed on 485 patients with moderate-to-severe IUA who met the inclusion criteria and admitted in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2021.According to surgical approaches,the patients were assigned into a see-and-treat mode group and a traditional mode group.After clinical diagnosis(ultrasound and symptoms)of IUA,the patients from the former group received direct hysteroscopic adhesion separation surgery,and those of the latter group were diagnosed by outpatient hysteroscopy first and then hysteroscopic adhesion separation surgery.The perioperative indicators,postoperative three-dimensional transvaginal ultrasound(3D-TVUS)examination related characteristics,postoperative menstrual recovery,postoperative pregnancy outcomes,obstetric related complications,and neonatal outcomes were collected and compared between the 2 groups.Results Among the enrolled 485 patients,there were 277 in the see-and-treat group and 208 in the traditional group.The success rate of surgical treatment was 89.89%in the see-and-treat group and 92.79%in the traditional group,but no statistical difference was seen between them(Chi-square=1.234,P=0.267).3D-TVUS examination displayed that the see-and-treat mode group obtained better improvement of endometrial morphology,uterine morphology and menstruation after operation than the traditional group(P<0.001).The postoperative pregnancy rate was slightly higher in the see-and-treat group than the traditional mode group(58.84%vs 58.17%,P=0.882).However,the see-and-treat mode showed obvious advantage in the postoperative natural pregnancy rate,with a rate of 90.80%,obviously higher than that in the traditional mode group(81.82%,P=0.026).The live birth rate was 70.55%in the see-and-treat mode group,excluding 1 case with ongoing pregnancy in the second trimester and 1 case with ongoing pregnancy in the third trimester,and the rate was 74.38%in the traditional group,excluding 3 cases with ongoing pregnancy in the third trimester,but there was no statistical difference between the 2 groups(P=0.303).In terms of obstetric-related complications,there were 0 cases of blood transfusion during delivery hospitalization in the see-and-treat group,while there were 7 cases in the traditional group(P=0.003).In neonatal outcomes,the rate of transfer to the pediatric department was 10.43%in the see-and-treat mode group and 22.22%in the traditional mode group(P=0.021).For health economics,the see-and-treat hysteroscopy group demonstrated a significant advantage over the traditional hysteroscopy group(P<0.001).There was no significant difference in pain scores between the 2 groups.Conclusion The see-and-treat approach is a safe,feasible,and highly efficient strategy for integrating the diagnosis and treatment of IUA,enabling maximal minimization of surgical trauma while optimizing time and cost efficiency.

Objective To understand the association between peripheral leukocytes telomere length (TL) and sleep in middle-aged and old adults.Methods A total of 176 middle-aged and old adults were investigated by using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and questionnaire.TL was measured by fluorescence quantitative PCR.The correlation and regression analysis between sleep and telomere length was performed.Results TL had a mean T/S ratio of 0.995 ± 0.23.There was a negative correlation between TL and age (r=-0.241,P=0.003).With increasing age,sleep quality became worse (r=-0.230,P<0.01),the time to fall asleep became longer (r=0.227,P<0.01),sleep duration was shorter (r=-0.486,P<0.01),sleep efficiency became worse (r=-0.226,P<0.01).After controlling for the effects of gender,age,marital status,income level,residence,smoking,drinking,physical exercise and disease status,multiple linear regression analysis indicated that sleep quality (β3=0.057,P<0.01),time to fall asleep (β =-0.046,P<0.01),sleep duration (β3=0.086,P<0.01) were independent influencing factors of telomere length,suggesting that the people who had better sleep quality,the shorter time to fall asleep,the longer sleep time would have longer telomere length.Conclusions Sleep is a relevant factor affecting TL in middle-aged and elderly population.Good sleep may delay aging by slowing TL.We encourage to conduct health education about the importance of sleep quality in community.

Objective To evaluate the impact of carvedilol and metoprolol on left ventricular (LV)dyssynchrony in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy(IDC).Methods In this study,we randomly assigned 65 IDC patients from January 2009 to June 2011 to re-ceive carvedilol or metoprolol succinate.All patieats were divided in to carvedilol group(n=33)and metoprolol group(n=32)Echo-cardiographic measurements and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide levels were obtained at baseline and 6 month after thera-py.Then long-term follow up the survival rate of patients were observed.Results In carvedilol group,reduction in LVEDS and in-crease in LVEF was higher compared to metoprolol group.Also improvement in LV dyssynchrony achieved and survival rate with carvedilol was higher than metoprolol.However,Improvements in LV mechanical dyssynchrony was similar in two groups.Im-provements in LV mechanical dyssynchrony achived with both drugs were accompanied by reduction in NT-pro-BNP levels in both carvedilol and metoprolol groups(P >0.05).Conclusion Carvedilol is an effective drug improves the intraventricular dyssynchro-nyfor for IDC patients with left ventricular dyssynchrony,and could increasea the survival rate.

Objective To investigate the impact of pain care standard training on the pain-related knowledge and attitude of junior nurses in orthopedics department.Methods The standard pain care training was done for the junior nurses in the orthopedics department. The scores of questionnaires related to pain-related knowledge and attitude were collected and compared between pre-and post-training. Result There was significant statistical difference in the measurements related to the junior nurse’s knowledge and attitude between pre-and post-standard training(P<0.05).Conclusion The standard pain care training can enhance junior nurses knowledge,improve the attitude towards pain,and set up apporiate pain management behavior.
