Objective To analyze the correlations between the thoracic electrical impedance tomography(EIT)-derived parameters global inhomogeneity(GI),center of ventilation(COV),regional ventilation delay(RVD),and atelectasis in hospitalized patients,and to explore their effectiveness in evaluating atelectasis.Methods The clinical data of 140 hospitalized patients monitored by thoracic EIT between Sep.2024 and Jan.2025 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were assigned to 2 groups based on chest computed tomography confirmation of atelectasis within the preceding short-term period during EIT monitoring:non-atelectasis group or atelectasis group.The algorithm software designed with MATLAB was used to acquire GI and COV.RVD was obtained through analysis with the Dr?ger EIT Data Analysis Tool 6.3 software,and patients'general data were concurrently documented.Comparative analysis of EIT-derived parameters between groups was conducted.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to investigate the correlations of GI,COV,and RVD with atelectasis,while receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to assess the efficacy of EIT-derived parameters in evaluating atelectasis.Results A total of 140 patients were enrolled,with 19(13.6%)cases presenting atelectasis.Compared to the non-atelectasis group,the atelectasis group demonstrated significantly higher proportions of male patients and cardiovascular disease and thoracic surgery(non-pulmonary)histories,lower body mass index(BMI),and alongside elevated GI and RVD values with reduced COV(all P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that GI,COV,and RVD maintained independent associations with atelectasis after adjusting for age,gender,BMI,pleural effusion,and emphysema(odds ratio[OR]=1.39,95%confidence interval[CI]1.20-1.67;OR=0.85,95%CI 0.75-0.96;OR=1.22,95%CI 1.09-1.39;all P<0.05).The area under curve(AUC)values of GI,COV,and RVD for evaluating atelectasis in hospitalized patients were 0.82,0.80,and 0.82,respectively(while RVD demonstrated a higher AUC,its clinical applicability was influenced by respiratory patterns).Conclusion Thoracic EIT-derived parameters GI and COV demonstrate significant correlations with atelectasis and may serve as valuable indicators for evaluating atelectasis in hospitalized patients.

Objective:To investigate the effect of peer support-based narrative therapy on postoperative self-image and stigma of patients with head and neck cancer, to provide reference for clinical nursing.Methods:A total of 78 head and neck cancer patients from August 2018 to August 2020 in Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center were divided into experimental group and control group by random digits table method, each group were 39 cases. The control group was given conventional nursing, while the experimental group implemented support-based narrative therapy on the basis of routine nursing. The intervention time was 4 weeks. The self-image and stigma of the two groups before and after intervention were assessed by Body Image Scale (BIS) and Social Impact Scale (SIS), respectively.Results:Finally, 37 cases were included in the experimental group and 38 cases in the control group. There was no significant difference in BIS, SIS dimension scores and total scores between the two groups before intervention ( P>0.05). After intervention, the emotional demension scores, behavior dimension scores, cognitive dimension scores and total scores in BIS were 4.41 ± 1.04, 1.95 ± 0.51, 3.81 ± 0.63 and 10.16 ± 2.05 in the experimental group, significantly lower than in the control group 5.08 ± 1.08, 2.82 ± 0.60, 5.42 ± 0.76 and 13.32 ± 1.93, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.76-6.86, all P<0.01); the social exclusion scores, internal shame scores, social isolation scores and total stigma scores in SIS were 17.57 ± 2.67, 9.08 ± 1.55, 12.14 ± 3.73 and 46.14 ± 4.95 in the experimental group, significantly lower than in the control group 19.18 ± 3.70, 10.68 ± 1.61, 14.18 ± 3.83 and 51.68 ± 6.09, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.16-4.38, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Peer support-based narrative therapy can effectively alleviate the postoperative self-image problems and stigma of patients with head and neck cancer, which is worthy of clinical application.

Ophthalmology is interrelated with a variety of disciplines, and its features determine the need for interdisciplinary joint training of postgraduate students majoring in ophthalmology. The joint training can optimize the students' knowledge structures, enhance their innovation abilities and improve their overall qualities. However, there are still some factors restricting the interdisciplinary joint training in the existing education system. We propose to establish a full-time administrative management system, build a multidisciplinary communication platform, attach great importance to tutors' interdisciplinary researches, and establish dual mentor or multi-tutor training system. Moreover, a reasonable interdisciplinary evaluation system and various incentive mechanisms are advocated to improve the quality of postgraduate education in ophthalmology.

China Pharmacist 2017;20(3):556-558
Objective:To establish an HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of six active constituents ( ferulic acid, chlorogenic acid,ephedrine hydrochloride,protocatechuic acid,protocatechualdehyde and naringin) in Jizhi syrups. Methods:A Zorbax XDB-C18(4.6 mm×250 mm,5 μm)column was used. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile (A)-0.9% acetic acid (B) with gradient elution at the flow rate of 1. 0 ml·min-1 . The detection wavelength was changed as follows:257 nm for 0-22. 0 min, 326 nm for 22. 0-30. 0 min, 320 nm for 30. 0-52. 0 min, 210 nm for 52. 0-58. 0 min and 283 nm for 58. 0-60. 0 min. The column temperature was 30 ℃ and the injection volume was 10 μl. Results:The separation of the six active constituents was good. The linear range ( r>0. 9990) was 2. 817-112. 670, 2. 342-93. 670, 0. 710-28. 415, 0. 776-31. 035, 0. 694-27. 755 and 1. 279-51. 175 ng for ferulic acid, chlorogenic acid, ephedrine hydrochloride, protocatechuic acid, protocatechualdehyde and naringin, respectively. The average recover-ies varied from 99.3% to 99.8%(RSD varied from 0.18% to 0.28%). Conclusion: The method is rapid with high sensitivity, promising accuracy and good specificity, which can provide scientific basis for the quality control of Jizhi syrups.
