Parkinson's disease(PD)is a common progressive neurodegenerative disease mainly affecting the motor system.Various genetic factors and cellular mechanisms underlying PD have recently been discovered.Emerging evidence suggests that epigenetic modifications play a very important role in the pathogenesis,prevention,and treatment of PD.Epigenetic modification mediates genetic and environmental interactions mainly through complex interactions of DNA methylation,histone modification,and non-coding RNA,thereby affecting expression in the absence of changes in DNA sequence.In this review,we summarize the epigenetic modification mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease.In this review,we summarize the epigenetic modification mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease.Recent studies have found that traditional Chinese medicine can participate in the regulation of abnormal epigenetic modifications in the treatment of PD.Traditional Chinese medicine benefits from its multi-level and multi-target regulatory effects,and various traditional Chinese medicine monomers,compound prescriptions,and techniques have been evaluated,confirming that this is a promising approach for improving symptoms in PD.This review summarizes the mechanisms by which epigenetic modifications contribute to P D,explores the role of traditional Chinese medicine,and provides new ideas for clinical treatment and drug development in PD through epigenetic intervention.

Objective:To implement cross-cultural adaptation after translating the Integral Nursing Leadership Scale(INLS), and to test the validity of the Chinese version of INLS.Methods:In April 2024, the translation method adopted was direct translation and back translation, cross-cultural adaptation was carried out using the expert consultation method, a pre-survey was conducted and the Chinese version of INLS was modified accordingly. From May to June 2024, a convenience sampling method was used to select the participants from Southern Medical University Southern Hospital to test the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of INLS.Results:The effective recovery rate was 95.30% (669/702). Among 669 clinical nurses, there were 635 females and 34 males, aged (35.01 ± 7.54) years old. The Chinese version of the INLS consisted of 4 dimensions and 30 entries. The CR value of the entry threshold was between 12.742 and 20.157 (all P<0.01). The correlation coefficient of the score of 30 items was between 0.692 and 0.819 (all P<0.01). The average scale-level and item-level content validity index were all 1. The index of fit: χ2/ df = 2.860, root mean square error of approximation was 0.071, incremental fit index was 0.921, Tucker- Lewis index was 0.914, comparative fit index was 0.921. The Cronbach α coefficient of the scale and each dimension was>0.90 ( P<0.01). The test-retest reliability was 0.947( P<0.01). Conclusions:The Chinese version of INLS has good reliability and validity, and can be used as an effective tool to evaluate the comprehensive leadership of nursing managers in China.

Objective:To construct the user personas of the patients who practice self-management home rehabilitation after lower limb bone transport by exploring their self-management experiences and needs in rehabilitation at home so as to provide targeted countermeasures for related medical staff.Methods:A purposive sampling method was employed to select the 21 patients who had undergone home rehabilitation after lower limb bone transport at Department of Orthopedic Trauma, Nanfang Hospital from September to December 2024. The cohort included 12 males and 9 females, with an age of (39.8±15.1) years. The phenomenological research method was used to conduct semi-structured interviews with this cohort. After the data from interviews were explored by the Colaizzi 7-step analysis to extract the factual labels, role dimension models were built, covering 3 dimensions: description, characteristics (basic, cognitive, behavioral, social support, and psychological adjustment characteristics) and needs.Results:All patients were interviewed. Four user personas were constructed, including self-awareness growth type (5 cases), emotional dependency-driven type (4 cases), risk-aversion procrastination type (7 cases), and management motivation-impaired type (5 cases). The patients of self-awareness growth type were 21 to 36 years old and received high school or university education, characterized by high self-efficacy, active measures to improve and maintain their state of rehabilitation, good management of negative emotions, and a low sense of stigma. The patients of emotional low-driven type were 42 to 74 years old and received their education in a primary school or junior high school, characterized by lack of independence, dependence on others for rehabilitation management, common management of negative emotions, low self-efficacy, and a strong sense of stigma. The patients of risk-aversion procrastination type were 33 to 56 years old and received their education in a junior or senior high school, characterized by a willingness to cooperate but insufficient motivation for rehabilitation management, an awareness of rehabilitation which was vulnerable to external factors, common management of negative emotions, low self-efficacy, and a strong sense of stigma. The patients of management motivation-impaired type were 51 to 61 years old, received primary school education or lower, characterized by insufficient knowledge and poor self-management behavior, constant failure to follow the prescribed rehabilitation exercises, poor management of negative emotions, low self-efficacy, and a low sense of stigma.Conclusion:The user personas we have constructed for the patients who practice self-management home rehabilitation after lower limb bone transport can help healthcare professionals with specific targeted interventions to enhance self-management efficacy to facilitate the rehabilitation process for the patients.
