ObjectiveTo investigate the current status of ethical sensitivity among clinical nursing interns in the context of artificial intelligence （AI） and analyze its influencing factors. MethodsAdopting mixed research methods and convenience sampling， a total of 237 nursing interns from a tertiary A hospital in Xi’an were selected as research subjects. Data were collected using a general information questionnaire and the Nursing Students’ Ethical Sensitivity Scale， and semi-structured interviews were conducted with 8 nursing interns. ResultsThe total score of ethical sensitivity among nursing interns was （33.98±6.32）， which was at a moderate level. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that academic degree （undergraduate： β=0.147， P<0.05； postgraduate： β=0.139， P<0.05）， affinity for the nursing profession （β=0.118， P<0.05）， whether they had taken nursing ethics courses （β=-0.124， P<0.05）， and familiarity with artificial intelligence （β=-0.159，P<0.05） were influencing factors of ethical sensitivity among nursing interns. Four themes were extracted from semi-structured interviews， namely， the incomplete mastery of nursing ethics-related knowledge among nursing interns， weakened ethical sensitivity in the AI teaching scenario of nursing interns， insufficient professional identity affecting the development of nursing interns’ ethical sensitivity， and technological dependence leading to the lack of humanistic care among nursing interns. ConclusionEthical sensitivity of nursing interns represents a moderate level， primarily influenced by educational background， degree of fondness for the nursing profession， learning experience of nursing ethics courses， and familiarity with AI. Nursing educators and clinical administrators urgently need to establish a sustainable school-hospital collaborative model of nursing ethics education， attach importance to the cultivation of ethical awareness and value guidance for nursing interns， and strengthen the intensity and depth of nursing ethics education among nursing interns， thereby improving their level of ethical sensitivity in the context of AI.

The recombinant human thyroid-stimulating hormone (rhTSH) can be used for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) preparation before ¹³¹I therapy, and follow-up. Since its approval by the American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1998, rhTSH has been clinically used in European countries, the United States, and other countries for nearly 30 years. In April 2024, China’s first independently developed rhTSH agent was approved. Based on clinical experience and evidence from domestic and international studies, an expert consensus on the application of rhTSH has been developed following thorough consultations among experts. The consensus offers evidence-based recommendations to guide the appropriate use of rhTSH in clinical practice.

A pyrene-phenol-based fluorescent probe PyP which showed typical intramolecular charge transfer(ICT)and monomer-excimer activities was synthesized by using pyrene carboxaldehyde hydrazone and 4-tert-butyl-2,6-diformylphenol as the raw materials.The effects of solvents on PyP were studied,and the results showed that the color of protic polar solvents(Ethanol,N,N-dimethylformamide,methanol and H2O)were successfully identified.Based on the solvent polarity-regulated PyP monomer-excimer switching,the rapid and highly sensitive ratiometric probe,"Turn-off"and"Turn-on"multimodal probes were established for detection of trace water content in organic solvents(Dimethyl sulfoxide,N,N-dimethylformamide,ethanol and methanol),with detection limits(3σ/k)of 0.0021％,0.046％,0.062％and 0.024％.The method was successfully used to detect water content in dimethyl sulfoxide,N,N-dimethy lformamide,ethanol and methanol commercial organic solvents,with recoveries ranging from 97.2％to 108.0％.The developed method showed good accuracy and stability,and had good application prospect.

Aim To explore the mechanism of Yangxin decoction in the treatment of chronic heart failure(CHF)based on network pharmacology and animal ex-periments.Methods The database was used to screen Yangxin decoction,a network of"drug-compo-nent-disease-target"was established,and the obtained targets were enriched and analyzed.The CHF model of rats was replicated by abdominal aortic ligation.After the administration,the general condition,body weight and heart weight of the rats were observed,and the he-modynamic changes,echocardiography indicators and left ventricular mass index were measured.HE staining was used to observe the morphological changes of myo-cardial tissue.Serum IL-1 β,IL-18,TNF-α and BNP were detected by ELISA.The expressions of NLRP3,caspase-1,ASC and NF-κB p65 proteinswere detected by Western blot.Results Enrichment analysis showed that the potential regulatory pathways of Yangx-in decoction in the treatment of CHF involved NOD-like signaling pathway,NF-κB signaling pathway,etc.The results of animal experiments showed that the body weight,left ventricular diastolic diameter and left ven-tricular systolic diameter of the rats in the administra-tion group decreased(P＜0.05),the left ventricular mass index,ejection fraction and short axis narrowing rate increased(P＜0.05),the pathological morphology of myocardial tissue was reduced,and the levels of IL-1 β,IL-18,TNF-α,BNP,NLRP3,caspase-1,ASC and NF-κB p65 decreased(P＜0.05).Conclusions The mechanism of Yangxin decoction in the treatment of CHF rats may be related to inhibiting the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway and reduc-ing the inflammatory response.

Objective To evaluate the application value of fascial platform versus commercial platform in transumbilical single-port laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal repair(TAPP)for inguinal hernia.Methods One hundred patients with inguinal hernia admitted between January and December 2024 were prospectively enrolled and randomly assigned to either the fascial platform group(n=50)or the commercial platform group(n=50)by using a random number table.The following parameters were compared between the two groups:platform establishment time,operative time,intraoperative blood loss,incision suture time,operative difficulty score,camera manipulation difficulty score,postoperative 24-hour Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)score of pain,postoperative hospital stay,total hospitalization cost,comprehensive satisfaction score,and postoperative complications.Results The fascial platform group demonstrated significantly superior outcomes compared to the commercial platform group in platform establishment time[(3.4±1.0)min vs.(8.1±1.5)min,t=-18.389,P＜0.001],operative time[(67.5±7.9)min vs.(72.2±11.5)min,t=-2.380,P=0.019],intraoperative blood loss[(8.3±4.3)ml vs.(11.1±5.7)ml,t=-2.798,P=0.006],incision suture time[(7.0±1.4)min vs.(11.8±2.7)min,t=-11.212,P＜0.001],operative difficulty score(14.4±3.6 vs.23.1±4.1,t=-11.215,P＜0.001),camera manipulation difficulty score(11.4±2.6 vs.18.3±2.5,t=-13.370,P＜0.001),VAS score of postoperative 24-hour pain(2.4±1.0 vs.3.7±1.1,t=-6.139,P＜0.001),total hospitalization cost[(15.8±1.6)thousand yuan vs.(18.3±1.6)thousand yuan,t=-7.841,P＜0.001],and comprehensive satisfaction score(7.3±1.1 vs.6.3±1.0,t=5.271,P＜0.001).However,there were no statistically significant differences in postoperative hospital stay or postoperative complication between the two groups(P＞0.05).All the patients were followed up for 1-12 months postoperatively[(5.3±1.8)months vs.(5.7±2.0)months,t=-0.945,P=0.347],with no recurrence observed in either group.Conclusions Both fascial platform and commercial platform can be used for transumbilical single-port TAPP.The fascial platform offers advantages including shorter platform establishment time,reduced incision suture time,lower operative and camera manipulation difficulty,decreased cost,less postoperative pain,and higher patient satisfaction.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and clinical features of infectious diseases of the central nervous system (CNS).Methods:A cross-sectional study and analysis were conducted to summarize the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of 9 918 patients with CNS infectious diseases, who were diagnosed and treated at 29 hospitals across China from January 1, 2001 to December 31, 2020. Data collected included demographic data, clinical manifestations, health economic indicators, and prognostic outcomes.Results:Among the 9 918 collected cases of CNS infectious diseases, 5 559 were male (56.0%) and 4 359 were female (44.0%), with an onset age of 38 (25, 53) years. Education level: slightly more junior high school education (2 651 cases, 26.7%), and less elementary school education and below (2 181 cases, 22.0%) were found. Occupational distribution: farmers were found predominant (3 215 cases, 32.4%), followed by workers (1 826 cases, 18.4%) and students (1 633 cases, 16.5%). Clinical manifestations: headache (6 074 cases, 61.2%), fever (5 869 cases, 59.2%) and positive meningeal irritation signs (2 273 cases, 22.9%) were the 3 most common clinical manifestations, followed by nausea and (or) vomiting (2 095 cases, 21.1%), impaired consciousness (2 077 cases, 20.9%), psychiatric symptom (1 866 cases, 18.8%) and epilepsy (1 627 cases, 16.4%), etc., and cranial nerve involvement was found in 669 cases (6.7%). Major pathogens included viruses in 6 814 cases (68.7%), Mycobacterium tuberculosis in 1 677 cases (16.9%), common bacteria in 864 cases (8.7%), fungi in 254 cases (2.6%), spirochetes of syphilis in 183 cases (1.8%), parasites in 121 cases (1.2%), and rickettsiae in 5 cases (0.1%). Urban-rural distribution: slightly more cases were found in the countryside (5 418 cases, 54.6%) than in the towns (4 500 cases, 45.4%). Distribution of onset by season: 2 412 cases (24.3%) fell ill in spring, 2 835 cases (28.6%) in summer, 2 187 cases (22.1%) in fall, and 2 484 cases (25.0%) in winter. Health economics: the duration of hospitalization was 15 (8, 27) days, and the cost of hospitalization was 1.53 (0.91, 3.02)×10 000 yuan. Prognosis: 9 531 cases (96.1%) were cured or improved, and 92 cases (0.9%) died. Conclusions:The pathogens responsible for CNS infectious diseases are predominantly viruses. Although the incidence is slightly higher during the summer months, the overall seasonal pattern is not particularly pronounced. These infections are more commonly observed in young and middle-aged males and present with a diverse range of clinical manifestations, contributing to a significant disease burden.

Objective:To explore the biodistribution characteristics of mixed activated killer (MAK) immune cells in immunodeficient mice after administration.Methods:Ninety-six immune immunodeficient (NOG) mice (half male and half female) were equally divided into MAK cell group and solvent control group. The MAK cell group mice were injected with DiR-labeled MAK cells via the tail vein, while those in the solvent control group were injected with an equal amount of solvent via the tail vein. The number of MAK cells in the peripheral blood of mice was detected using a flow cytometry at 11 time points from 15 minutes to 84 days after administration. The distribution of MAK cells in mice was measured using in vivo bioluminescence imaging at 18 time points from 5 minutes to 84 days after administration. And at 8 time points from 3 hours to 84 days after administration, the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, brain, stomach, duodenum, colon, bone marrow, fat, skeletal muscle, testes/uterus, epididymis/ovary, and blood were collected from corresponding mice. The DNA levels of MAK cells in blood and various organs of these mice were detected using fluorescence real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) method.Results:The flow cytometry results showed that MAK cells could be detected in the peripheral blood of mice 15 minutes after administration, and the highest number of MAK cells in blood appeared during 3 hours to 1 day. By 14 days after administration, MAK cells were almost undetectable in peripheral blood of mice. In vivo bioluminescence imaging results showed that the fluorescence intensity of MAK cells in mice was strongest on days 1 and 2 after administration, and MAK cells were mostly distributed in the liver, spleen, lung, and leg bone of mouse. The qPCR detection results showed that MAK cells were mainly distributed in the spleen and lungs. High levels of MAK cell DNA amplification were observed in organs such as the spleen and lungs 28-56 days after administration, and a certain amount of MAK cell DNA could still be detected in organs of mice such as the spleen at 84 days.Conclusions:After administration, MAK cells were mainly distributed in the spleen, lung, liver and other organs of NOG mice. From 28 to 56 days after administration, MAK cells are significantly activated and proliferate, and a certain amount of MAK cell DNA can still be detected in the spleen and other organs after 84 days in mice.

Objective:To analyze the association between standardized management of clinical research, initiated by investigators and guided by clinical research management policies in healthcare institutions, and changes in the research behavior of graduate students.Methods:Theses related to cardiovascular health published by graduate students in the Sichuan-Chongqing region of China between January 2019 and June 2024 were retrieved from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure database. Multilevel models were used to analyze changes in ethical compliance awareness, research methodology standardization, and academic collaboration of graduate students before and after policy implementation. Using Shapiro Wilk test and percentage representation.Results:Among the 712 theses included in this study, the proportion of studies with ethical review reports increased from 44.50% to 55.32% following the implementation of standardized management [odds ratio ( OR)=1.80, P=0.017]. Standardized management significantly improved the quality scores of cross-sectional studies and randomized controlled trials ( P<0.001), as well as significantly increased the frequencies of multi-center collaboration ( OR=2.84, P=0.001) and intra-provincial collaboration ( OR=2.80, P=0.001). Conclusions:Standardized clinical research management shows significant association with positive changes in the research behavior of graduate students. Further optimization of management measures is recommended to comprehensively enhance the clinical research capabilities of graduate students.
