Objective:To investigate the current status of breast reconstruction after breast cancer surgery in hospitals in China.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study using convenience sampling. A self-designed survey questionnaire was used to investigate nurses of department of breast diseases in China from May to August 2023. The content of the questionnaire included four aspects: identification information, basic hospital information, the implementation situation of breast reconstruction after breast cancer surgery, and the situation of medical and nursing human resources for breast reconstruction, with a total of 39 items. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0 software. The non-normally distributed measurement data were expressed as M( Q1, Q3), and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison between groups. Numeric data were expressed as frequency and percentage, and comparisons between groups were made using the χ2-test or Fisher’s exact probability method. P<0.05 indicated that the difference was statistically significant. Results:A total of 212 public hospitals from 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities participated in the survey. Two hundred and three hospitals (95.8%) returned valid data, including 155 Grade Ⅲ Level A hospitals, 19 Grade Ⅲ Level B and C hospitals, and 29 Grade Ⅱ hospitals. There were 157 general hospitals, 32 specialized cancer hospitals, and 14 other hospitals. Thirty-nine hospitals did not perform breast reconstruction surgery. A total of 164 hospitals (80.8%) had already carried out breast reconstruction surgery, among which the proportion of breast reconstruction in Grade Ⅲ Level A hospitals [90.3% (140/155)] was significantly higher than that in Grade Ⅲ Level B and C hospitals [52.6% (10/19)] and Grade Ⅱ hospitals [48.3% (14/29)] ( P<0.01). The proportion of breast reconstruction in specialized cancer hospitals [96.9% (31/32)] was significantly higher than that in general hospitals [79.0% (124/157)] and other types of hospitals [64.3% (9/14)] ( P<0.05). Among the 164 hospitals, 310 (150, 637.5) patients underwent breast cancer surgery and 30 (10, 100) patients underwent breast reconstruction in 2022. The proportion of patients undergoing breast reconstruction surgery among breast cancer surgery patients was 13.3% (4.0%, 20.0%). The number of patients receiving immediate breast reconstruction was 11 (2.5, 46.5) cases, and the number of those receiving delayed breast reconstruction was 5 (0, 18.5) cases. Among 203 hospitals, the median proportions of breast oncoplastic surgeons and specialized nurses among healthcare providers in breast surgery departments were 28.6% (2/7) and 75.0% (12/16), respectively. In comparison of the 164 hospitals offering breast reconstruction surgery and 39 hospitals not, the median numbers of breast oncoplastic surgeons were 3 (1, 8) versus 1 (0, 3), and qualified breast reconstruction nurses were 12 (6, 16) versus 1 (0, 8), respectively. All differences were statistically significant (all P<0.01). Conclusion:About 80% of hospitals in China have offered breast reconstruction procedures after breast cancer surgery, and the proportion of Grade Ⅲ Level A hospitals and specialized cancer hospitals is higher than that of other types of hospitals. The proportion of patients undergoing breast reconstruction after breast cancer surgery is relatively low, and there is a considerable potential of improvements. Breast oncoplastic surgeons and nurses are insufficient, so it is necessary to strengthen the training of specialized medical staff and improve surgical techniques and the level of nursing services simultaneously, so as to improve the quality of life of breast cancer patients.

Objective To review the damage outcomes of patients in medical damage events and to analyze the influencing factors of medical causality determination in medical damage events in Tianjin city,with a view to reducing the occurrence of medical damage events by avoiding risk factors and standardizing the diagnostic and therapeutic activities of medical personnel.Methods 316 cases of medical damage events handled by the Medical Damage Identification Office of Tianjin Medical Association from 2017 to 2023 were selected as the research object,and descriptive analysis was used to summarize the basic situation of medical damage events,and the medical fault factors affecting the magnitude of the cause force of the medical side of medical damage events were explored through single-factor analysis and the construction of multiomal logistic regression models.Results Medical malpractice(OR=3.140)and incomplete preoperative assessment(OR=6.008)are factors that influence the determination of the liability of the medical institution in medical malpractice events(P＜0.05),and all three regression coefficients were greater than 0,all three were positively correlated with the probability that the medical cause power was judged to be greater than or equal to the equivalent cause.Conclusion The number of medical damage incidents in Tianjin shows a fluctuating downward trend.In Tianjin,the number of medical injury incidents showed a fluctuating downward trend,and the number of medical injury incidents in tertiary public general hospitals was the largest.Therefore,medical institutions should establish and improve multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment mode to improve the level of diagnosis and treatment.Strengthen preoperative evaluation to avoid surgical risk.

Objective:To investigate the effect of metaphorical acceptance-based intervention on alleviating negative emotions in college students.Methods:Totally 112 college students were assigned to the metaphorical in-tervention group(n=40),the non-metaphorical intervention group(n=36),and the control group(n=36).Both intervention groups received online group intervention once a week for 2 weeks,while the control group received no intervention.The Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7(GAD-7),Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9),Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-2nd Edition(AAQ-Ⅱ),and a self-report acceptance item were used to assess participants'anxiety,depression,experiential avoidance,and acceptance at baseline,2-week post-intervention,1-week follow-up,and 3-week follow-up.Results:After 2-week interventions,the scores of GAD-7,PHQ-9,and AAQ-Ⅱ in the meta-phorical group were lower than that at baseline,and the scores of self-report acceptance were higher than that at baseline(Ps＜0.01).In the non-metaphorical group,the scores of GAD-7 at 1-week follow-up,the scores of PHQ-9 at 2-week post-intervention and 1-week follow-up,and the scores of AAQ-Ⅱ after 2-week post-intervention were all lower than that at baseline(Ps＜0.05).The scores of self-report acceptance after 2 weeks post-intervention were all higher than baseline(Ps＜0.001).The decrease of scores of AAQ-Ⅱ only mediated the reduction of scores of GAD-7(95％CI=-2.39--0.38)and PHQ-9(95％CI=-2.65--0.44)caused by metaphorical acceptance-based intervention.Conclusion:Online metaphorical acceptance-based intervention may have larger efficacy than non-metaphorical intervention in continuously alleviating anxiety,and the reduction of experiential avoidance plays an important role in alleviating anxiety and depression in metaphorical acceptance-based intervention.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the anti-inflammatory mechanisms of demethylzeylasteral(Dem)in ulcerative colitis(UC)and collagen-induced arthritis(CIA),focusing on its regulation of Th17 cell differentiation and associated signaling pathways.METHODS UC was induced in C57BL/6 mice using dextran sulfate sodium(DSS),and Dem was administered by gavage at low(1 mg·kg-1)or high(2 mg·kg-1)doses.Disease severity was assessed by body weight loss,colon length,and stool consisten-cy.Serum cytokines(TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6)were quantified by ELISA,and Th17 cell ratio in mesenteric lymph nodes was deter-mined by flow cytometry.The anti-inflammatory efficacy of Dem was further validated using a CIA mouse model.The efficacy of Dem was further verified in the CIA model,and the expression of JAK2 and STAT3 was intervened by siRNA to investigate its mechanism of action in Th17 differentiation.RESULTS Dem-treated mice showed reduced weight loss and colon shortening,and decreases in ser-um TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6 levels(P<0.01)and Th17 cell proportion(P<0.01).Western blot and siRNA assays showed that Dem significantly inhibited the differentiation and activation of Th17 cells by suppressing the phosphorylation of the JAK2-STAT3 path-way.Dem also significantly alleviated arthritis symptoms and related markers in the CIA model,confirming its anti-inflammatory effects.CONCLUSION Dem improves UC and rheumatoid arthritis by downregulating the JAK2-STAT3 signaling pathway,inhibi-ting Th17 cell differentiation and pro-inflammatory cytokine expression,suggesting its potential therapeutic value in immune-related diseases.

Objective:To reveal the differences in the transcriptome maps of brain tissues in mice subjected to Flash irradiation and conventional dose rate irradiation with electron beams and to explain the biological effect and mechanisms of Flash irradiation from multiple perspectives.Methods:Following the principle of grouping based on approximate body weights, 36 female C57BL/6J mice were divided into three groups, i. e., the control, conventional dose rate irradiation (CONV), and Flash irradiation (Flash) groups, with 12 mice in each group. Both the CONV and Flash groups received a single 15 Gy whole-brain irradiation with 9 MeV electron beams. At 3 d post-irradiation, the whole-brain tissue specimens were collected for hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining to observe pathological changes. At 1, 3, and 10 weeks post-irradiation, the motion function, cognitive ability, depression level, and spatial memory capacity of the mice were assessed using ethology. At 1 and 10 weeks after behavioral experiments, brain tissue samples were collected and snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen for reference-based transcriptome sequencing. Accordingly, the differences in the transcriptome maps of radiation-induced brain injury between CONV and Flash groups were analyzed.Results:The HE staining-based pathological result revealed that compared to the CONV group, the Flash group exhibited reduced glial cell hyperplasia and inflammatory cell infiltration in brain tissues. Ethological research result at 1 week post-irradiation showed that the CONV group manifested a significantly decreased total traveled distance compared to the control and Flash groups ( t = 5.51, 2.38, P < 0.05) and a significantly increased immobility time compared to the control group ( t = 3.60, P < 0.05). Ethological research result at 3 weeks post-irradiation indicated that compared to the CONV group, the Flash group displayed significantly alleviated cognitive impairment ( t = 3.35, P < 0.05) and reduced depression levels ( t = 2.39, P < 0.05). Ethological research result at 10 weeks post-irradiation demonstrated that the CONV group showed the worst cognitive performance, significantly differing from the control group ( t = 4.53, P < 0.05). Transcriptome sequencing result revealed that besides immune-related pathways, the Flash group also exhibited multiple upregulated metabolic pathways and fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-related pathways compared to the CONV group. Conclusions:Compared to conventional dose rate irradiation, Flash irradiation can effectively alleviate radiation-induced brain injury in mice. This effect is associated with various metabolic pathways (including amino acid metabolism) and FGF-related pathways besides immune pathways.

Objective:To analyze the application effects of case-based learning (CBL) + Seminar teaching method based on Toulmin model in the education and teaching of clinical medicine innovation class.Methods:A total of 60 students from the clinical medicine innovation class at The Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from September 2021 to September 2023 were selected as research objects. These students were divided into control group ( n=30) and research group ( n=30) according to different teaching programs. The traditional teaching method was adopted in the control group, and the CBL + Seminar teaching method based on Toulmin model was adopted in the research group. The two groups were compared in terms of clinical knowledge, clinical skill, and clinical case analysis scores; changes in clinical thinking ability after teaching; and satisfaction with the teaching process. SPSS 22.0 was used for t-test and chi-square test. Results:The research group significantly outperformed the control group in clinical knowledge [(89.59±3.46) points vs. (83.23±3.02) points], clinical skill [(88.87±3.23) points vs. (83.62±3.13) points], and clinical case analysis [(89.73±3.51) points vs. (82.62±3.19) points] ( t=7.58, 6.39, 8.21, P<0.001). The clinical thinking ability after teaching was significantly higher in the research group compared to the control group [(258.49±13.36) points vs. (242.56±13.02) points] ( t=4.67, P<0.001). The overall satisfaction rate of teaching was significantly higher in the research group compared to the control group (100.00% vs. 80.00%, χ2=4.63, P=0.031). Conclusions:The CBL + Seminar teaching method based on Toulmin model can effectively improve student learning performance and clinical thinking ability, demonstrating a promising application value in the education and teaching of clinical medicine innovation class.
