Objective:To explore the chain mediating role of psychological resilience and perceived social support between cancer-related fatigue and quality of life in patients undergoing chemotherapy for lung cancer, and to inform interventions to improve quality of life in patients undergoing chemotherapy for lung cancer.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 275 lung cancer patients with chemotherapy admitted to three ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Henan Province from June 2022 to November 2023 for the study. General Information Questionnaire, Cancer Fatigue Scale, Quality of Life Instruments for Cancer Patients-Lung (QLICP-LU), Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and Perceived Social Support Scale were used to survey the patients. Correlations between cancer-related fatigue, psychological resilience, perceived social support, and quality of life in lung cancer patients with chemotherapy were analyzed using Spearman correlation. Model 6 in the SPSS PROCESS program was used to test for chain mediating effects. A total of 275 questionnaires were distributed, 268 questionnaires were recovered, excluding the regular answer questionnaires, the valid questionnaires were 252, the effective recovery rate of questionnaires was 91.64% (252/275) .Results:Univariate analysis showed statistically significant differences in QLICP-LU scores among lung cancer patients with chemotherapy of different ages, educational levels, marital status, per capita monthly household income, and tumor stages ( P<0.01). Spearman correlation analysis showed that cancer-related fatigue was negatively correlated with psychological resilience, perceived social support and quality of life in patients undergoing chemotherapy for lung cancer ( P<0.01), and quality of life was positively correlated with psychological resilience and perceived social support ( P<0.01), and psychological resilience was positively correlated with perceived social support ( P<0.01). Mediating effect analysis showed that the direct effect of cancer-related fatigue on quality of life was -0.302, which accounted for 77.44% of the total effect. Psychological resilience and perceived social support realized mediating effects between cancer-related fatigue and quality of life through three mediating pathways, with a total indirect effect of -0.088, accounting for 22.56% of the total effect. Conclusions:Cancer-related fatigue can not only directly affect the quality of life of patients undergoing chemotherapy for lung cancer, but it can also have an indirect effect on them through the mediating role of psychological resilience and perceived social support. While focusing on patients' cancer-related fatigue, medical and nursing staff should focus on assessing patients' psychological status, providing psychological support, and increasing social support so as to improve patients' quality of life.

Objective To investigate the expression level of centromere protein(CENP)Ⅰin lung adenocarcinoma cells,to study the effects of CENPⅠon the proliferation,invasion,migration,apoptosis,and epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)of lung adenocarci-noma cells,and to explore the possible mechanisms related to its occurrence.Methods The expression of CENPⅠmRNA and protein in four types of lung adenocarcinoma cells and normal alveolar epithelial cells were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)and Western blotting.The expression of CENPⅠin H1650 cells was knocked down by the siRNA technique,The transfection efficiency was detected by RT-qPCR and Western blotting.The effects of knock-down CENPⅠon proliferation,cell cycle,apoptosis,invasion and migration of H1650 cells were detected by the cell counting kit-8 assay,the transwell assay,and flow cytometry.Western blotting was used to detect the expression of E-cadherin,N-cadherin,vimentin,Ki-67,cyclin D1,Bcl-2,PI3K,AKT,mTOR,p-PI3K,p-AKT,and p-mTOR.Results After the knock-down of CENPⅠ,the proliferative ability of the H1650 cells significantly decreased,the number of apoptotic cells significantly decreased,and the cell invasion and migration abilities significantly decreased(P<0.01).E-cadherin expression was upregulated and N-cadherin,vimentin,Ki-67,cyclin D1,Bcl-2,p-PI3K,p-AKT,and p-mTOR expres-sion were down-regulated in the CENTI group compared with the control group(P<0.05).The expression of p-PI3K,p-AKT,and p-mTOR in the si-CENPⅠ+IGF-1 group was upregulated compared to that in the si-CENPⅠgroup(P<0.05).Conclusion High expression of CENPⅠin lung adenocarcinoma cells promotes the proliferation,invasion,and migration of lung adenocarcinoma H1650 cells and EMT inhibits apoptosis,which may be related to the activation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of local visceral leishmaniasis in Beijing Municipality from 2021 to 2023, so as to provide insights into formulation of the visceral leishmaniasis control strategy. Methods Epidemiological data of visceral leishmaniasis cases reported in Beijing Municipality from 2021 to 2023 were collected from the National Health Informatization Disease Prevention and Control Information System, and the epidemiological characteristics of local visceral leishmaniasis cases were analyzed using a descriptive epidemiological method. In November 2021 and 2023, 50 to 100 permanent residents were voluntarily selected within a 100 meter radius of sites where patients lived or acquired Leishmania infections, and venous blood was sampled for anti-Leishmania antibody testing. Venous blood was sampled from dogs for anti-Leishmania antibody testing in natural villages where patients lived or acquired Leishmania infections, or in districts where Leishmania infected dogs were reported. In addition, sandflies were captured with CO₂ mosquito traps and fine mesh nets in natural villages where patients lived or acquired Leishmania infections from May to September, 2021 and 2023, for sandfly species identification. Results A total of 4 local visceral leishmaniasis cases were reported in Beijing Municipality from 2021 to 2023, with ages of 2 to 77 years, and acquiring Leishmania infections in Mentougou District (2 cases), Changping District (1 case), and Yanqing District (1 case). The anti-Leishmania antibody testing was all negative in 73 human blood samples and the sero-prevalence of anti-Leishmania antibody was 25.00% in 36 venous blood samples from domestic dogs in 2021, with a total of 4 520 Phlebotomus chinensis captured. The sero-prevalence of anti-Leishmania antibody was 0.51% in 198 human blood samples and 13.58% in 243 venous blood samples from domestic dogs in 2023, with 16.10%, 25.00%, 17.78% and 3.13% sero-prevalence in dogs sampled from Mentougou District, Changping District, Yanqing District and Haidian District, respectively (P = 0.011), while a total of 1 712 Ph. chinensis were captured, including 1 421 female sandflies (86.54%). Conclusions The prevalence of local visceral leishmaniasis was low in Beijing Municipality from 2021 to 2023; however, there is a risk of further spread in the epidemic foci. Intensified visceral leishmaniasis surveillance and control is recommended.

Objective:To explore the vigilant attention function and behavioral changes in sleep disordered breathing(SDB) children.Methods:Thirty SDB children (SDB group) and 30 normal children (control group) were selected from June 2022 to August 2023. All participants underwent continuous performance test(CPT-AX) (Go/Nogo) and behavioral test. The latency and amplitude of contingent negative variation(CNV) components under cue/uncue conditions in leads F3, Fz and F4 were measured. The t-test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to conduct statistical analysis by SPSS 25.0 software. Results:(1) There were no statistically significant differences in the number of correct responses, reaction time and number of false alarms between the SDB group and the control group (all P>0.05).(2) The latencies of cue-CNV in the SDB group(F3: 618.00(582.50, 644.50)ms, Fz: 603.00(579.50, 634.00)ms, F4: (606.87±25.07)ms) were longer than those in the control group(F3: (508.47±25.82)ms, Fz: 502.00(470.00, 520.50)ms, F4: 514.00(487.00, 536.50)ms) in leads F3, Fz and F4. The latency of cue-CNV of lead F4 in the SDB group was higher than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The latencies of uncue-CNV in lead F3 and Fz in the SDB group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (both P<0.05). Conclusion:SDB children have shown activation in the right brain area during attentional tasks, and the prolonged CNV latency may be a sensitive neuroelectrophysiological marker for early clinical assessment of vigilant attention dysfunction.

Objective:To explore the cognitive function characteristics of children with primary snoring (PS) and obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) using event-related potentials.Methods:From October 2020 to October 2022, 20 children with OSAHS, 20 children with PS, and 22 normal children were recruited for continuous performance task (CPT) and behavioral assessments. ERP and behavioral data were meticulously recorded, with measurements of N1, P2, N2, and P3 wave amplitudes and latencies at F3, Fz, and F4 electrode sites. Statistical analyses were conducted using one-way ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis test via SPSS 25.0 software.Results:(1) Behavioural test: There was no statistically significant difference in terms of correct responses, response times, and false alarms among the three groups (all P>0.05). (2) F3 Lead: There were statistically significant differences in Go-P2 amplitude, Nogo-P2 amplitude, Nogo-P2 latency, Go-P3 amplitude, and Nogo-P3 latency among the three groups (all P<0.05). Specifically, the OSAHS group exhibited higher Go-P2 amplitude((15.03±5.12) μV vs (10.97±5.50)μV), Nogo-P2 amplitude((14.80±5.84) μV vs (9.67±4.79)μV), and Go-P3 amplitude((11.58±6.02) μV vs (7.49±4.89) μV) compared to the normal group. Additionally, the OSAHS and PS groups exhibited longer Nogo-P2 latency compared to the normal group((223.10±20.61) ms vs (208.00±23.09) ms, (230.60±13.61) ms vs (208.00±23.09) ms), as well as prolonged Nogo-P3 latency((459.20±34.26) ms vs (460.40±24.52) ms and (429.91±31.49) ms) (all P<0.05). Fz Lead: There were statistically significant differences in Go-N1, Go-P2, Nogo-P2, Go-P3, Nogo-N2 wave amplitudes, and Nogo-P3 latency among the three groups (all P<0.05). Compared to the normal group, the OSAHS group exhibited increased Go-P3 amplitude((9.07±5.68) μV vs (5.10±3.51) μV) and decreased Nogo-N2 amplitude((-8.80±5.97) μV vs (-12.84±4.86) μV). Moreover, both the OSAHS and PS groups had prolonged Nogo-P3 latency compared to the normal group((481.60±45.16) ms vs (435.13±28.17) ms and 484.00(443.50, 525.00) ms vs (435.13±28.17) ms) (both P<0.05). F4 Lead: There were statistically significant differences in Go-P2 and Nogo-P2 wave amplitudes among the three groups (all P<0.05). Compared to the normal group, the OSAHS group demonstrated increased Go-P2 amplitude((13.72±5.64) μV vs (9.70±4.59) μV) and Nogo-P2 amplitude((13.90±5.35) μV vs (9.64±3.74) μV) (both P<0.05). Conclusions:Both children with OSAHS and PS exhibit attentional cognitive impairments. However, children with OSAHS demonstrate more pronounced deficits in conflict monitoring, response inhibition, and executive functioning. The prolonged latency of the P3 wave serves as a sensitive electrophysiological marker for the early detection of neurocognitive impairment in children with sleep disordered breathing.

Objective To assess the impact of statins combined with sorafenib(SRF)therapy on survival outcomes in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma(mRCC).Methods Clinical data of mRCC patients treated in the 908th Hospital of the Joint Security Force from November 2019 to November 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.They were categorized into statin group and non-statin group according to whether they used statins or not,and the differences in the primary endpoint of overall survival(OS),secondary endpoints of progression-free survival(PFS),objective response rate(ORR),and disease control rate(DCR)were compared between the two groups.Results A total of 80 patients were included in the study,with 27 in the statin group and 53 in the non-statin group.There were no statistically significant differences in partial remission,stable disease,disease progression,and DCR between the two groups(P＞0.05);complete remission and ORR were significantly higher in the statin group than in the non-statin group(P＜0.05).Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that,compared with the non-statin group,the median PFS and OS of the statin group were prolonged,and the difference in median PFS between the two groups was statistically significant(P＜0.05).In terms of safety,the incidence of other adverse events was similar in both groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Statins combined with SRF treatment regimen can improve ORR and DCR and prolong median PFS and OS in patients with mRCC.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of classic prescription Ermiaosan （EMS） on the differentiation of T helper 17 （Th17） /regulatory T （Treg） cells in collagen-induced arthritis （CIA） DBA/1 mice. MethodDBA/1 mice were randomized into normal group， CIA group， EMS （5.4 g·kg^-1） group， and methotrexate （MTX，0.5 mg·kg^-1） group according to the body weight. DBA/1 mice in CIA group， EMS group， and MTX group were immunized with equal volume of bovine type Ⅱ collagen and complete Freund's adjuvant on the first day and were immunized with equal volume of bovine type Ⅱ collagen and incomplete Freund's adjuvant on the 21^st day to induce CIA. On the day of the secondary immunization， intragastric administration started and lasted 28 days （three times/week for MTX group， and once/day for other groups）. The symptoms of CIA mice such as joint redness and swelling were observed from the 22^nd day， and the arthritis was scored. After the sampling on the 49^th day， synovitis of CIA mice was observed based on hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. Double-labeling immunofluorescence （IF） method was used to detect the expression of Th17 cell marker IL-17 and Treg cell marker forkhead transcription factor P3 （FoxP3） in CD4⁺T cells in CIA mouse joints. The proportion of Th17 and Treg cells in the spleen and lymph nodes of mice was detected by flow cytometry. ResultCompared with the normal group， CIA group had obvious synovitis， disordered joint structure， severely damaged articular cartilage and bone， serious bone erosion （P<0.01）， high Th17/Treg value in joint tissue （P<0.01）， high proportion of Th17 cells in spleen and lymph nodes （P<0.01）， and low proportion of Treg cells （P<0.01）. Compared with CIA group， EMS group and MTX group had normal joint structure， mild bone erosion and bone destruction， complete and smooth joint surface， low Th17/Treg value （P<0.01）， low proportion of Th17 cells in spleen and lymph nodes （P<0.01）， and high proportion of Treg cells in spleen and lymph nodes （P<0.01）. ConclusionEMS regulates the balance of Th17/Treg， inhibits the expression of Th17 cells， and promotes the expression of Treg cells in CIA mice， thereby exerting therapeutic effect on RA.

The human resource management of organ donation coordinators in China is still in its infancy stage, plagued by such problems as unclear career orientation, poor management and unclear career planning. In March 2010, a tertiary public hospital was approved as a medical institution in a national pilot province for organ donation. In recent years, the hospital had kept exploring human resource management of coordinators and established a relatively complete management mode for organ donation coordinators. This mode featured the establishment of full-time recruitment positions, development of human resource management plans, refinement of job descriptions, establishment of performance evaluation plans, optimization of assessment and incentive mechanisms, and innovation of talent cultivation modes. The management practice had achieved certain results, ensuring the sustainable development of hospital organ donation operation, and providing a reference for the scientific and standardized development of organ donation and transplantation in China.
