Objective:To evaluate the effect of sex factors on rewarming in patients with mild hypothermia undergoing lithotripsy for urolithiasis.Methods:In this prospective study, 100 American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients, aged 18-60 yr, with a body mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective lithotripsy for urolithiasis, were divided into 2 groups ( n=50 each) based on sex: male group (group M) and female group (group F). The rewarming measures were as follows: the room was preheated, maintaining a constant temperature of 22-24 ℃, all the patients were covered with medical heating blanket under their bodies, and the inflatable heating apparatus was placed on the surface quilt, and the air supply was placed near the lower limbs of the patients. The parameters were set as follows: temperature 40 ℃, strong wind. If the patients complained of heat, the temperature parameter settings were changed, and the quilt was removed when necessary. If the patients complained of cold, blood transfusion and infusion heating instrument were added, medical heating blanket was turned on, or an anther quilt was used. Body temperature and the number of patients with successful rewarming were recorded on admission to post-anesthesia care unit (T 0) and at 10, 30, 45 and 60 min after rewarming (T 1-4), and at 1, 3 and 5 h after returning to the ward (T 5-7). The comfort scores were assessed while measuring body temperature at T 0 and T 4, and the occurrence of shivering, hypertension, hypotension and arrhythmias was observed. Results:Compared with group F, the body temperature was significantly increased at T 3 and T 4, the success rate of rewarming and incidence of shivering were increased at T 3 ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the incidence of hypertension, hypotension and arrhythmias in group M ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Sex factors affect rewarming outcomes in patients with mild hypothermia undergoing lithotripsy for urolithiasis. Females exhibit a slower rewarming rate and less shivering than males.

This paper reviews the pathogenesis, assessment tools, influencing factors and interventions of diabetes patients with frailty at home and abroad. This paper also puts forward suggestions such as focusing on diabetes combined with frailty, taking frailty assessment as the routine assessment of diabetes patient, preparing frailty assessment tools for diabetes patients in China, and carrying out prospective investigation research, so as to provide a reference basis for early identification of frailty and formulation of individual interventions.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the real experience and needs of caregivers of children with type 1 diabetes mellitus.Methods:Qualitative researches on the real experience and needs of caregivers of children with type 1 diabetes mellitus were searched through Wanfang Databese, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science and Embase. The retrieval time limit was from the establishment of database to March 6, 2022. Literature screening and data extraction were conducted independently by 2 researchers. The quality of the literatures was evaluated using the Australian Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) evidence-based health care center qualitative research quality evaluation standard (2016). The results were synthesized by the integrating method.Results:A total of 15 literatures were included, 62 research results were extracted, 8 categories were classified, and 3 integrated results were synthesized: the caregivers of children with type 1 diabetes mellitus suffer from multiple pressure and burden at the early stage of diagnosis; caregivers during the home care period are eager to obtain various support due to lack of knowledge, experience and support; caregivers gradually adapt to the role change brought by the disease, actively respond and regain confidence.Conclusions:Families, medical institutions and society should pay attention to the psychological emotion of caregivers of children with type 1 diabetes mellitus, and provide information, psychological, economic and social support, help them better perform their role as caregivers, so as to improve the quality of life of children and caregivers.

Hypertensive disorder of pregnancy (HDP) involves two major public health issues: mother-infant safety and prevention and controlling major chronic disease. HDP poses a serious threat to maternal and neonatal safety, and it is one of the leading causes of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide, as well as an important risk factor for long-term cardiovascular disease (CVD). In order to explore effective strategies to prevent and control the source of CVD and reduce its risk, we have established a cohort of HDPs in Shenzhen for the primordial prevention of CVD. The construction of the HDP cohort has already achieved preliminary progress till now. A total of 2 239 HDP women have been recruited in the HDP cohort. We have established a cohort data management platform and Biobank. The follow-up and assessment of postpartum cardiovascular metabolic risk in this cohort has also been launched. Our efforts will help explore the pathophysiological mechanism of HDP, especially the pathogenesis and precision phenotyping, prediction, and prevention of pre-eclampsia, which, therefore, may reduce the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes, and provide a bridge to linking HDP and maternal-neonatal cardiovascular, metabolic risk to promote the cardiovascular health of mothers and their infants.
