Objective:To study the epidemic characteristics and clinical symptoms of patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) in Shandong Province, and to provide a basis for further optimizing the clinical treatment strategies for HT.Methods:Data on HT patients admitted to Shandong Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention from January 2018 to December 2023 were collected. A retrospective analysis was conducted to analyze their epidemiological characteristics, clinical symptoms, and auxiliary examination results.Results:A total of 192 HT patients' data were included, comprising 42 males (21.87%) and 150 females (78.13%). The average age of patients was 40.38 years old, ranging from 9 to 74 years old. Most patients resided in urban areas (129 cases, 67.19%). HT cases occurred throughout the year in every mouth, with higher incidence in June (32 cases, 16.7%) and July (20 cases, 10.4%), lower incidence in March (8 cases, 4.2%) and April (10 cases, 5.2%), and sporadic cases in other months. Based on clinical manifestations, among all HT patients, there were 66 cases (34.38%) of Hashitoxicosis type, 11 cases (5.73%) of pseudothyrotoxicosis type, 7 cases (3.65%) of exophthalmic type, 5 cases (2.60%) of subacute thyroiditis-like type, 3 cases (1.56%) of juvenile type, 35 cases (18.23%) of fibrous type, 39 cases (20.31%) of thyroid adenoma or carcinoma type, and 26 cases (13.54%) of other autoimmune diseases type. Based on disease progression, among all HT patients, there were 61 cases (31.77%) in the hyperthyroid phase, 16 cases (8.33%) in the hyperthyroid-hypothyroid coexisting phase, and 115 cases (59.90%) in the hypothyroid phase. Based on clinical symptoms, among all HT patients,there were 78 cases(40.62%) of neck mass symptoms, 101 cases (52.60%) of digestive system symptoms, and 95 cases (49.48%) of low metabolic symptoms. Laboratory tests revealed that 144 cases had elevated levels of both thyroglobulin antibody and thyroid peroxidase antibody. Color ultrasound examination showed strip-like echoes in the thyroid in 99 cases (51.56%) and grid-like echoes in 43 cases (22.40%). After treatment with antithyroid drugs or appropriate thyroid hormone supplementation, all 192 HT patients experienced symptom relief.Conclusions:HT patients in Shandong Province were predominantly female and urban residents. Common clinical symptoms included anterior neck swelling, constipation, fever, and weight gain. Early detection, diagnosis, and treatment could delay disease progression.

As an independent first-level discipline,an appropriate classification of nursing science is significant.In China,each nursing degree-granting institution has developed its own secondary-level discipline directions based on its research characteristics and strengths,with varying names and research scopes.Furthermore,there is no unified global classification system.This paper,based on the characteristics of nursing as a discipline and combined with China's discipline classification principles,used literature analysis,comprehensive classification,philosophical reflection,logical reasoning,and expert consultation methods to explore the connotation of nursing,its unique research objects and scope,and to construct a secondary-level discipline classification system for nursing science that is suitable for China's national conditions.The paper also discussed the challenges faced by the nursing discipline and its future development directions,providing theoretical and practical guidance for the development of the nursing discipline.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of the use of intravenous therapy specialist nurses and construct a theoretical framework, so as to provide reference for developing intervention measures and improving the use of intravenous therapy specialist nurses.Methods:The grounded theory research method was used. From July to August 2024, 17 intravenous therapy managers/specialist nurses from six ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Beijing City and Hebei Province were selected through purposive and theoretical sampling for semi-structured interviews. NVivo 12.0 was used for data analysis, including open, axial, and selective coding.Results:A total of 79 initial concepts were extracted and summarized into 25 domains, which were consolidated into five main domains, including organizational management and support, personal characteristics and professional identity, team collaboration and communication, work performance and incentive mechanisms, and external environment and opportunities. On this basis, a theoretical framework for factors influencing the use of intravenous therapy specialist nurses was constructed.Conclusions:This study constructs a theoretical framework for factors influencing the use of intravenous therapy specialist nurses. Managers can leverage this theoretical framework to develop targeted intervention strategies that enhance the effectiveness of intravenous therapy specialist nurses and optimize the allocation of nursing human resources.

Objective To determine the body weights and blood physiological and biochemical indicators in the Macaca mulatta brevicaudus(M.m.brevicaudus),to provide a reference for the breeding of experimental animals.Methods A total of 180 wild M.m.brevicaudus(female and male)from the South Bay Macaque Reserve in Lingshui were selected as the research subjects.Body weights were measured using electronic scales and blood samples were collected.Routine blood indicators(red blood cell count,hemoglobin,white blood cell count,and platelet count)were detected using an automated blood cell analyzer,and biochemical indicators(alanine aminotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase,glucose,blood urea nitrogen)were measured using an automated biochemical analyzer.Data were analyzed using SPSS 18.0 software for descriptive statistics,and differences in body weights and blood indicators between sexes and age groups were compared using t-tests.Results Adult male wild M.m.brevicaudus were significantly heavier than females(P＜0.05);however,there were no significant differences in complete blood cell counts between female and male macaques(P＞0.05).In terms of blood biochemical indicators,lactate dehydrogenase and total bilirubin levels differed significantly between female and male M.m.brevicaudus(P＜0.05),but there were no significant differences in any other biochemical indicators.Conclusions This study established baseline data on the body weights and blood physiological and biochemical indicators of wild M.m.brevicaudus,providing a reference for their future breeding as experimental animals.

Objective:To establish a risk prediction model by analyzing the influencing factors of delivery be-fore 34 weeks' gestatior with singleton pregnancies who underwent transcervical McDonald's cervical cerclage.Methods:Clinical data of 500 pregnant women with singleton pregnancies who underwent McDonald's cervical cerclage in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology,Heping Hospital,General Hospital of the People's Lib-eration Army Northern Theater of Operations from January 1,2019 to February 29,2024 were retrospectively ana-lyzed,and were randomly divided into a training set of 350 cases versus a validation set of 150 cases in accord-ance with a 7∶3 randomization.The data in the training set were screened for predictive variables affecting deliv-ery before 34 weeks' gestation after cervical cerclage using univariate combined multivariate Logistic regression,predictive modeling and assessment were established,and internal validation was performed in the validation set.Results:Preoperative cervical length(CL)＜20 mm,amniotic fluid deposits(AFS),absence of Lactobacillus vagi-nalis,and cervical dilatation＞3 cm were independent risk factors for adverse outcomes of labor and delivery be-fore 34 weeks' gestation after cervical cerclage(OR＞1,P＜0.05),and the Nomogram model constructed on the basis of this was found to have an AUC of 0.887,with a good agreement of the model(H-L test:P=0.905,Brier score of 0.095).The results of the clinical decision curve showed that the clinical decision value of the model was high when the threshold was between 0.10-0.92.The model was internally validated with an AUC of 0.812,and there was a high degree of agreement between the predictions and the actual situation(H-L test:P=0.859).Conclusions:The column-line diagram model constructed on this basis has a high clinical value,which can help us to screen out the high-risk pregnant women and give them individualized interventions in a timely manner.
