Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine-scalp nerve block (SNB) combined with general anesthesia in the patients with acute traumatic brain injury (TBI) undergoing craniotomy.Methods:In this randomized controlled trial, 74 American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients of either sex with acute TBI, aged 30-78 yr, with body mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, underwent craniotomy for hematoma evacuation combined with decompressive craniectomy at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Kunshan from January to December 2024, of the Glasgow Coma Scale score 8-12, were selected and divided into 2 groups ( n=37 each) using a random number table method: dexmedetomidine combined with ultrasound-guided SNB group (DS group) and ultrasound-guided SNB group (S group). Before anesthesia, dexmedetomidine was infused as a loading dose of 1 μg/kg over 10 min followed by an infusion of 0.3 μg·kg -1·h -1 until the end of operation. Ultrasound-guided SNB was performed after completion of intubation in both groups. The consumption of intraoperative fentanyl, propofol and remifentanil and the usage of vasoactive drugs were recorded. Before surgery (T 0), at 1 h after the start of surgery (T 1) and at the end of surgery (T 2), blood samples from the jugular bulbar and radial artery were collected, the jugular venous oxygen saturation was recorded, the arteriovenous oxygen content and cerebral oxygen uptake rate were calculated, and the occurrence of postoperative complications was also recorded. Results:Compared with group S, the consumption of fentanyl, propofol and remifentanil was significantly reduced, the usage rate of vasoactive drugs was decreased, the arteriovenous oxygen content and cerebral oxygen uptake rate were decreased at T 1 and T 2, the jugular venous oxygen saturation was increased, and the incidence of postoperative agitation was decreased in group DS ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Dexmedetomidine-SNB combined with general anesthesia can optimize the analgesic effect, improve cerebral oxygen supply and demand, reduce the occurrence of postoperative agitation when used in patients with acute TBI undergoing craniotomy.

Objective To investigate the intervention effects of a progressive upper limb exercise rehabilitation program based on the multi-process action control theory on upper limb function,rehabilitation compliance,and quality of life in patients with permanent pacemaker implantation(PPI).Methods A total of 130 patients scheduled for PPI from March to August 2024 were selected using a convenience sampling method.Among them,65 patients admitted from June to August were assigned to the experimental group,and 65 patients admitted from March to May formed the control group.The experimental group received the progressive upper limb exercise program in addition to routine care,while the control group received routine care only.The intervention lasted for 3 months.The differences were compared between the 2 groups in terms of primary outcome measures,including the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index(SPADI)and grip strength.The secondary outcome measures were the Quality of Life Instrument for Chinese Patients with Pacemaker(QLICPP),hospital stay and incidence of complications.Results A total of 122 patients(62 in the experimental group and 60 in the control group)completed this study.Repeated-measures analysis of variance showed significant interaction effects between time and group for the total SPADI score and its pain and disability dimensions,as well as for the physical function,psychological function,and total score of QLICPP(P＜0.001).Simple effects analysis indicated that the experimental group had better grip strength than the control group at l month postoperatively,and lower SPADI scores and total score than the control group at 1 and 3 months postoperatively.At 1 month postoperatively,the total QLICPP score and each dimension of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in the incidence of complications and length of hospital stay(P＞0.05).Conclusion The progressive upper limb exercise rehabilitation program developed in this study effectively addressed the issue of low rehabilitation compliance in PPI patients,improved their upper limb function and quality of life,and it was safe.It provides a feasible and effective new pathway for the rehabilitation of PPI patients.

Objective To investigate the current status and barriers to implementing non-accompanied care services in medical institutions in Zhejiang Province,and to provide a basis for the improvement of standardized management of such services.Methods A self-designed questionnaire was conducted from September to October 2024 among all secondary and tertiary medical institutions in Zhejiang Province to assess the implementation status and barriers to non-accompanied care services.Results A total of 397 questionnaires were distributed,with 389 valid responses,yielding a valid response rate of 97.98％.Non-accompanied care services were implemented in 118 institutions(30.33％).Among these,90 institutions(76.27％)had established management systems for non-accompanied wards;71 institutions(60.17％)had a medical nursing assistant-to-bed ratio lower than 1∶5;41 institu-tions(34.75％)provided tiered training for medical nursing assistants;93 institutions(78.81％)required patients to bear the full cost of the service.Compared with secondary medical institutions,tertiary medical institutions have more complete management system for non-accompanied care services.The main obstacles hindering the development of non-accompanied care services include an imperfect management system for non-accompanied wards,a shortage of medical nursing assistants,a lack of standardized training for such assistants,inconsistent charging standards,and low acceptance among patients and their families.Conclusion The promotion of non-accompanied care services in medical institutions in Zhejiang Province has achieved initial success.However,challenges persist,including incomplete management systems,uneven development across hospital tiers,and imperfect charging mechanisms.It is recommended that relevant authorities strengthen policy support,enhance standardized training for healthcare nursing assistants,refine cost-sharing mechanisms,and improve the quality and sustainability of non-accompanied care services through multi-party collaboration.

Objective:To examine the validity and reliability of the DSM-5 Social Anxiety Disorder Severity Scale(SAD-D)in a Chinese adult population.Methods:The Chinese version of the DSM-5 Social Anxiety Disor-der Severity Scale was administered via online data collection platform Credamo to 300 adults(Sample 1,for item analysis,exploratory factor analysis and item selection of brief version of SAD-D)and 528 adults(Sample 2,for confirmatory factor analysis,criterion validity test,measurement invariance analysis and internal consistency reliabil-ity analysis for both SAD-D and its brief version).Criterion validity was tested with the Social Phobia Scale(SPIN)and Personal Report of Confidence as a Speaker(PRCS).A brief version of the scale was developed by u-sing the Ant Colony Optimization(ACO).A retest was conducted with 152 participants from Sample 2 after three weeks.Results:Exploratory factor analysis indicated that the SAD-D was a unidimensional scale with factor load-ings ranging from 0.49 to 0.82,and the results of the confirmatory factor analysis also supported the unidimension-al structure(x2/df=3.49,RMSEA=0.069,CFI=0.971,TLI=0.962,SRMR=0.028).The scores of Chinese version of the SAD-D were positively correlated with the SPIN scores(ICC=0.70,P＜0.001)and PRCS scores(ICC=0.73,P＜0.001).The Cronbach'α of the scale was 0.92,and the retest reliability was 0.85.The scale dem-onstrated cross-gender measurement invariance(△CFI＜0.01,△RMSEA＜0.01).The brief version of the SAD-D was selected as items 2,5,and 6,and its Cronbach'α coefficient was 0.86.Conclusion:The Chinese version of the SAD-D has satisfactoryvalidity andreliability,making it suitable for the assessment of social anxiety symptoms with Chinese adults.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of the I-PASS ABCDE structured handoff model in patients with respiratory failure in the intensive care unit (ICU) .Methods:A total of 35 nurses working in the ICU of the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University were selected by convenience sampling from January 2020 to September 2021. From January to October 2020, the traditional handoff model was used (control group), while from November 2020 to September 2021, the I-PASS ABCDE structured handoff model was implemented (intervention group). The defect rate of clinical handoff, nurses' understanding of patients' conditions, handoff effectiveness, time spent on handoff, and nurse satisfaction with the handoff model were compared between the two groups.Results:The defect rate of clinical handoff in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the control group. Scores for nurses' understanding of patients' conditions and handoff effectiveness were significantly higher in the intervention group than in the control group ( P<0.05), indicating statistical significance. Although handoff duration was longer in the intervention group than in the control group, the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Nurse satisfaction with the handoff model was significantly higher in the intervention group than in the control group ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The application of the I-PASS ABCDE structured handoff model in ICU patients with respiratory failure can reduce handoff defects, improve handoff quality, and enhance nurses' satisfaction.

Objective:To investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided scalp nerve block (SNB) combined with dexmedetomidine on cerebral blood flow after craniotomy in patients with acute traumatic brain injury (TBI).Methods:A randomized controlled design was conducted. Patients aged 25-65 years, with ASA physical status I–III and Glasgow Coma Scale scores of 9-12, who underwent craniotomy for acute TBI at Kunshan Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital between January 2024 and February 2025 were selected. Patients with unstable vital signs, cranial tumors, cardiovascular diseases, local anesthetic allergies, or infections at the puncture site were excluded. Using a random number table, patients were divided into two groups: the ultrasound-guided SNB combined with dexmedetomidine group (SD group) and the dexmedetomidine-alone group (D group). General clinical data, peak systolic velocity (PSV), mean blood flow velocity (MBFV), intracranial pressure (ICP), S100 calcium-binding protein beta (S-100β protein), neuron-specific enolase (NSE) levels, and postoperative complications were compared. Dynamic changes in PSV and MBFV were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance, while inter-group comparisons used independent sample t-tests. Results:A total of 79 patients were included, with 40 in the SD group and 39 in the D group. There were no significant differences in general clinical data between the two groups (all P>0.05). In the D group, PSV and MBFV at T 1 and T 2 were significantly higher than at T0 [(125.04±20.43) cm/s vs. (126.83±21.76) cm/s vs. (110.63±18.49) cm/s, P=0.001; (61.75±8.34) cm/s vs. (62.81±8.54) cm/s vs. (57.82±6.93) cm/s, P=0.017], whereas no significant differences were observed in the SD group (all P>0.05). PSV, MBFV, ICP, S-100β protein, and NSE levels at T1 and T2 in the SD group were lower than those in the D group (all P<0.05). The incidence of postoperative hypertension, agitation, and the use rate of vasoactive drugs were also lower in the SD group compared to the D group (all P<0.05). Conclusion:The application of ultrasound-guided SNB combined with dexmedetomidine in TBI patients after craniotomy can help stabilize cerebral blood flow and ICP, mitigate neuronal injury, and reduce the incidence of postoperative complications.

ObjectiveTo develop the Evidence Grading Scale for Ancient classical prescriptions in Traditional Chinese medicine， assess its reliability and validity， and apply it in practice to provide multi-source evidence for clinical practice guidelines development. MethodsLiterature retrieval was conducted to extract and screen existing evaluation dimensions， then the initial items were summarized using thematic analysis. Experts in the clinical medicine， medical history and literature participated in the Delphi questionnaire survey to evaluate and refine the items. An expert consensus meeting was conducted to finalize the included items， refine the method for items evaluation and evidence grading. The evidence quality rating scale for ancient classical traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） prescriptions was then established and tested for reliability and validity. ResultsThrough literature review， extraction， screening and summarization， a total of 3 dimensions and 12 initial items were formed. Questionnaires were sent to 69 experts to evaluate the initial items， with a questionnaire response rate of 100% and an expert authority coefficient of 0.92. All 12 items were retained for they had importance scores above 4. The Evidence Grading Scale on Ancient classical prescriptions in Traditional Chinese medicine includes 3 dimensions with 12 items. The 3 dimensions includes ancient evidence， inheritance status， and modern application. Each dimension contains 4 items， and each item has a full score of 5 points.

ConclusionThe Evidence Grading Scale on Ancient classical prescriptions in Traditional Chinese medicine has good reliability and validity， which is practical for use in the development of TCM clinical guidelines and can better support clinical decision-making.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of cervical adenocarcinoma and analyze the survival status and related prognostic factors.Methods:The data of 229 patients with cervical adenocarcinoma who were diagnosed pathologically in the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from January 2013 to October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 198 early stage patients were mainly treated with surgery, and 31 locally advanced stage patients were mainly treated with chemoradiotherapy. The overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) rates in the whole cohort of patients and different treatment subgroups were calculated. Kaplan‐Meier method and log‐rank test were used for survival analysis, and Cox proportional hazards model was used for univariate and multivariate survival analyses.Results:Among the 229 patients, there were 11 subtypes of pathological classifications, predominantly of the usual‐type. At the end of follow‐up, 57 patients (24.9%) relapsed. The 3‐ and 5‐year OS rates were 86.4% and 79.3%, respectively, and the 3‐ and 5‐year PFS rates were 81.6% and 73.6%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging of stages Ⅲ‐Ⅳ was an independent prognostic factor for OS and PFS ( HR=2.033, 95% CI=1.456‐2.839, P<0.001; HR=1.701, 95% CI=1.251‐2.313, P=0.001). Lymph node metastasis was an independent risk factor for PFS ( HR=1.610,95% CI=1.021‐2.539, P=0.041). Subgroup analysis of 198 patients with surgical treatment: the 3‐ and 5‐year OS rates were 90.0% and 84.9%, and the 3‐ and 5‐year PFS rates were 82.7% and 76.7%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that lymph node metastasis and deep invasion depth were the main risk factors for OS ( HR=6.893, 95% CI=2.592‐18.327, P<0.001; HR=1.952, 95% CI=1.164‐3.272, P=0.011) and PFS ( HR=5.507, 95% CI=2.569‐11.805, P<0.001; HR=1.638, 95% CI=1.09‐2.461, P=0.018). Ovarian preservation was an independent risk factor for PFS ( HR=3.364, 95% CI=1.115‐10.151, P=0.031). Conclusions:The pathological types of cervical adenocarcinoma are complex and diverse. Local recurrence and distant metastasis are the main reasons for treatment failure. FIGO stage, lymph node metastasis and postoperative depth of invasion are the main prognostic factors of cervical adenocarcinoma.

The " no-accompany" service is an important measure to meet the patients′ needs for comprehensive, continuous, and high-quality diversified care and to enhance their medical experience. Starting in March 2024, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine launched a pilot " no-accompany" service in the breast surgery and dermatology wards. The hospital established a working team led by the nursing department and involving multiple administrative departments such as the medical affairs department, medical insurance office, and logistics management department. And the hospital has successfully advanced the implementation of the " no-accompany" ward program by establishing a multi-department collaborative management mechanism, standardizing the management of medical caregivers, developing a tiered fee scheme for the " no-accompany" service, and improving relevant service measures. The acceptance of the " no-accompany" service by patients increased from (3.93±0.83) in the second quarter of 2024 to (4.69±0.59) in the fourth quarter, and overall satisfaction rose from (4.18±0.73) to (4.50±0.54) (all P<0.001). The job competency of medical caregivers also improved significantly from (64.80±3.49) before starting work in March 2024 to (94.00±2.40) in the fourth quarter ( P<0.001). These findings provide a reference for the implementation of " no-accompany" services in public hospitals.

Objective:To address the inefficiency, safety hazards, and resource wastage in traditional medical laboratory management, this study proposes a digital laboratory information management system (LIMS) based on Total Quality Management (TQM) principles. The LIMS has been implemented at the National Center for Geriatric Medicine (Huashan) affiliated with Fudan University.Methods:Centered on the principles of " all-staff participation, whole-process control, and comprehensive management", a multidimensional management framework was developed to integrate personnel, equipment, reagents, and safety protocols. The system incorporated IoT, digital twin, and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to achieve end-to-end digital control. A layered architecture (physical layer, data layer, model layer, etc.) was designed to integrate functional modules such as full lifecycle equipment management, dual-authentication for hazardous chemicals, and intelligent resource scheduling. A 3D digital twin model was deployed to visualize real-time laboratory operations.Results:Post-implementation, equipment reservation frequency and usage duration at the National Center increased by 114% and 124%, respectively, with no safety incidents reported. Equipment sharing utilization reached 85%, and reagent expiration waste decreased by 30%.Conclusions:The system transforms laboratory management from experience-driven to data-driven by breaking data silos and optimizing collaboration mechanisms. It provides a replicable technical pathway and practical insights for the healthcare industry′s digital transformation. However, further improvements are needed in mobile support and system scalability.
