Objective To investigate the potential categories of nutrition literacy in young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with overweight or obesity,and analyze the relationship between various latent categories and dietary motivation,so as to provide references for clinical working staff to develop relevant dietary intervention strategies.Methods A convenient sampling method was used to enroll 270 young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with overweight or obesity from the endocrine department of a tertiary general hospital in Zhenjiang City,Jiangsu province,using basic information questionnaire,Nutrition Literacy Measurement Scale for Chinese adults,and the Regulation of Eating Behaviors Scale to collect data,using latent profile analysis to extract nutrition literacy potential categories,with general data and potential categories as independent variables,dietary motivation as the dependent variable for univariate analysis and multiple linear regression analysis.Results A total of 262 young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with overweight or obesity completed the survey,and their nutrition literacy could be divided into 3 potential categories:low nutrition literacy group(16.41％),transformation dilemma group(54.96％),and middle and high nutrition literacy group(28.63％).The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that residency style,potential categories of nutrition literacy and presence of diabetic complications were the influencing factors of dietary motivation in young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with overweight or obesity(P＜0.05).Conclusion There was a group heterogeneity in nutrition literacy in young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with overweight or obesity.Clinical working staff should provide targeted interventions based on the patient's potential categories of nutrition literacy to stimulate ongoing motivation to maintain a healthy diet.

Objective To explore the prognostic value of plasma sST2 in the population of coronary heart disease(CHD)complicated with chronic kidney disease(CKD).Methods A total of 326 elderly patients with CHD or CKD undergoing physical examination in the Second Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from April 2021 to July 2022 were continuously enrolled,and according to whether having CHD or CKD,they were divided into a CHD-CKD comorbidity group(n=117),a CHD group(n=124),and a CKD group(n=85).Their baseline data were compared,and the plasma concentration of sST2 was detected using chemiluminescence assay.Multiple linear regression analysis was used to identify the relevant factors of sST2.Kaplan-Meier survival curve and Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were applied to determine the impact of plasma sST2 on all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE).Results There were significant differences among the three groups in terms of age,sST2 and NT-proBNP levels,Log(NT-proBNP),eGFR,ratios of hyperuricemia,cerebral infarction,tumors,and using anti-platelet drugs and statins,PR interval,LVEF,and TC,TG,HDL-C and Hb levels(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the sST2 level was positively correlated with logNT-proBNP and negatively with Hb level in the comorbidity group(t=2.266,P=0.025;t=-2.235,P=0.021).Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis indicated that during a median fol-low-up of 31.5(22.0,32.2)months,the comorbidity group had a lower survival rate than the two single-disease groups(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),and higher incidence of MACEs than the CKD group(P＜0.01).ROC curve analysis suggests that the AUC value of sST2 in predicting all-cause mor-tality in the comorbid group was 0.692.Cox proportional hazards regression model revealed that after adjustment for cofounders,sST2 was still an independent risk factor for all-cause mortality in the comorbid patients(HR=4.461,95％CI:1.640-8.399,P=0.024),although this prognos-tic value may be influenced by NT-proBNP.Conclusion sST2 can independently predict the risk of mortality in elderly patients with CHD-CKD comorbidity.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum soluble suppression of tumori-genicity 2(sST2)and cardiac diastolic function in elderly patients with coronary heart disease(CHD)and chronic kidney disease(CKD).Methods A total of 116 elderly CHD patients suffer-ing from CKD taking physical examinations at the Second Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from April 2021 to July 2022 were recruited,and according to their serum sST2 level,they were divided into high sST2 group(＞28.65 μg/L,58 cases)and low sST2 group(≤28.65μg/L,58 cases).The baseline data of all subjected patients were collected,including N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP),as well as peak early diastolic mitral flow velocity(E),peak early diastolic mitral annular velocity(e'),isovolumetric relaxation time(IVRT)and some other indicators in echocardiography.Serum sST2 level was measured using chemilumines-cence assay.Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used for analysis.Results The high sST2 group had significantly larger proportion of diabetes and usingβ-blockers,higher levels of sST2,urea and logNT-proBNP,increased left ventricular mass index,thicker left ventricular posterior wall thickness,and elevated E/e'and IVRT,and lower levels of hemoglobin and triacylglycerol,and decreased e'value when compared with the low sST2 group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The correlation analysis showed that sST2 was positively correlated with taking β-blockers,urea and logNT-proBNP levels,and E/e'ratio(r=0.226,P=0.015;r=0.362,P=0.001;r=0.374,P=0.001;r=0.257,P=0.005),and negatively correlated with triglycerides,hemoglobin and e'value(r=-0.227,P=0.014;r=-0.314,P=0.001;r=-0.203,P=0.029).Multiple linear regression analysis displayed that sST2 was linearly correlated with triglycerides,urea and NT-proBNP levels,and E/e'(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion Serum sST2 level is cor-related with cardiac diastolic function in elderly patients with comorbidities of CHD and CKD.

Objective:Investigation of the relationship between variant angina pectoris syncope and coronary artery spastic targeted location, arrhythmias, and coronary artery stenostic lesion.Methods:This study combined retrospective and prospective registry approaches. Data were sourced from the case database of Henan province "Multicenter Clinical Observation Study of Variant Angina Pectoris". A total of 507 patients with variant angina pectoris who had complete records from June 1980 to December 2022 were consecutively enrolled. Select patients among them who experienced syncope, and analyze the target vessel sites of coronary artery spasm, arrhythmias during variant angina pectoris attacks, and the degree of stenosis in coronary artery lesions.Results:Among 507 variant angina pectoris patients, 88 experienced syncope. Age was (53.9±9.7) years and 66 patients (75.0%) were male. Forty patients (45.5%, 40/88) were aged 50-59 years. The incidence of syncope in variant angina pectoris caused by left anterior descending artery (LAD) spasm, right coronary artery (RCA) spasm, and multivessel coronary artery spasm was 7.4% (15/202), 22.7% (42/185), and 23.6% (25/106), respectively. The latter two were significantly higher than those in the LAD group ( P all<0.05). Among 77 patients with variant angina pectoris syncope, definitive electrocardiogram recordings were available during syncope episodes. All patients exhibited arrhythmias during syncope: 34 cases involved tachyarrhythmias and 43 cases involved bradyarrhythmias. The incidence of rapid arrhythmias in patients with LAD, RCA, and multi-vessel spasm syncope was 72.7% (8/11), 24.3% (9/37), and 54.2% (13/24), respectively, with P<0.05 for the first two. Bradyarrhythmias occurred in 27.3% (3/11) of LAD, 75.7% (28/37) of RCA, and 45.8% (11/24) of multivessel coronary artery spasm syncope cases, with the first two showing P<0.05. Coronary angiography analysis of 56 syncope patients revealed target vessel locations and stenosis severity: 12 patients had LAD lesions and 41 had RCA lesions, stenosis ≥50% occurred in 66.7% (8/12) and 43.9% (18/41) of these lesions, respectively ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Variant angina pectoris syncope predominantly affects middle-aged males. Bradyarrhythmias triggered by RCA spasm are a common cause, while the incidence of syncope shows no significant correlation with the degree of coronary artery stenostic lesion, whether in the LAD or the RCA.

Postoperative pain seriously affects the recovery process of patients, resulting in prolonged hospital stay and increased care costs. Appropriate application of patient-controlled analgesia devices can effectively relieve perioperative acute pain. In 1994 patient-controlled analgesia began to be used in Peking Union Medical College Hospital, and the Acute Pain Service Working Group was established in 2004. With the cooperation of anesthesiologists and specialist nurses, the group jointly has implemented the whole process and standardized management based on patient-controlled analgesia, and constantly improved and innovated working methods, laying a solid foundation for the development of postoperative pain management. This paper systematically reviews and summarizes the work from the aspects of clinical focus, nursing management experience, promotion and dissemination of pain treatment concepts, and development of acute pain service model under the new situation, with the hope of providing valuable reference for comprehensively strengthening pain management in the process of diagnosis and treatment, and enhancing patients' satisfaction with perioperative analgesia services.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of clobazam in the additional treatment of refractory epilepsy in children， and provide reference for clinically safe and rational drug use. METHODS The literatures about additional clobazam treatment for refractory epilepsy in children were searched from PubMed， The Cochrane Library， Embase， CNKI， VIP and Wanfang database during the inception to November 2023. After literature screening and data extraction， the quality of included literature was evaluated according to quality evaluation tool for methodological evaluation indicators of non-randomized controlled trial， and then meta-analysis of single-group rate and sensitivity analysis were performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. RESULTS Finally， 18 one-arm studies were included， with a total of 1 424 children. The results showed that compared with before additional treatment， the proportion of patients with seizures-free （proportion of patients with seizure reduction of 100%） was 24%[95%CI （0.18，0.32）， P＜0.000 01] after conversion； the proportion of patients with seizure reduction ≥75% was 32%[95%CI（0.25，0.40）， P＜0.000 1] after conversion； the proportion of patients with seizure reduction ≥50% was 53%[95%CI（0.44，0.61），P＜0.000 01]； the proportion of patients with seizure reduction ＜50% or no change was 35%[95%CI（0.24，0.49），P＝0.04] after conversion； the proportion of patients with seizure increase was 9%[95%CI（0.05，0.18），P＜0.000 01] after conversion. The proportion of patients with adverse reactions was 31%[95%CI（0.23，0.40），P＜0.000 1] after conversion； the proportion of patients with discontinuation due to adverse reactions was 10%[95%CI（0.07， 0.15）， P＜0.000 01] after conversion. The common adverse drug reactions were drowsiness， fatigue and behavior change， etc. The results of the sensitivity analysis showed that the study was robust. CONCLUSIONS Clobazam is an effective additional therapy for refractory epilepsy in children， but its adverse effects should be vigilant.
