ObjectiveTo analyze the research hotpots and development trends of international nursing ethical decision-making in the past 10 years by bibliometric methods. MethodsLiterature related to nursing ethical decision-making published in the Web of Science core collection database from 2014 to 2023 was retrieved. VOSviewer 1.6.18 software was utilized to visually present and analyze data regarding the number of publications， journal sources， countries of origin， author information， research institutions， key terms， co-cited references， and others. ResultsA total of 149 articles were included， involving 85 source journals， of which Nursing Ethics and BMC Medical Ethics were the most prolific. The number of publications on nursing ethical decision-making showed an overall upward trend， with the United States leading other countries in the number of publications. These publications involved 567 authors from 302 research institutions， and the degree of inter-institutional collaboration was relatively low. Keyword clustering， timeline overlay， and density analysis revealed that current research hotspots and trends included the ethical issues and decision-making in clinical nursing practice， the ethical decision-making level and competence of university nursing undergraduates， the ethical decision-making of nursing managers， and ethical decision-making dilemmas encountered by nursing staff during public health emergencies. ConclusionResearch on nursing ethical decision-making is gradually deepening but remains fragmented， lacking sustainability and collaboration. The ethical decision-making levels and competencies of university nursing students， as well as the field of ethical decision-making among nursing managers， may emerge as novel research hotspots in the future. Henceforth， it is necessary to strengthen in-depth exchanges among authors and institutions， pay close attention to international research frontiers， and enhance both the depth and breadth of research.

Skin wound repair is critically regulated by peripheral nerves. Injury or dysfunction of these nerves represents a key factor impairing the healing of pathological wounds, such as diabetic ulcers and deep burns. The mechanisms by which peripheral nerves participate in cutaneous wound healing primarily involve modulation of immune responses, construction of stem cell niches, and promotion of angiogenesis. Sensory neurons initiate and mediate essential local immune responses, contribute to the epidermal stem cell microenvironment, and support regenerative potential. Sympathetic nerves bidirectionally regulate immune homeostasis via the release of various neuromodulators and precisely control the activation of hair follicle stem cells as well as the homeostasis of melanocyte stem cells. Schwann cells also play pivotal roles in immune modulation, balancing repair processes and mitigating scar formation. During revascularization, sensory and autonomic nerve terminals release neurotransmitters that precisely regulate vasomotor activity and angiogenesis, while Schwann cells facilitate the reconstruction of functional vascular networks via potent paracrine signaling. This review systematically summarizes the crucial roles of peripheral nerves in skin wound repair, with emphasis on their regulatory mechanisms in immune responses, stem cell activation and homeostasis, and vascular dynamics, thereby providing insights into the development of novel therapeutic strategies targeting peripheral nerve regulation.

Objective:To explore the association between the use of tetracyclines during pregnancy and congenital malformations, with the aim of providing evidence-based guidance for the rational use of antibiotics during pregnancy.Methods:Data from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) and the Canada Vigilance Adverse Reaction (CVAR) database from January 2015 to September 2024 were collected. Five methods including Tree-based scan statistic (TreeScan), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), reporting odds ratio (ROR), the UK Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) comprehensive standard, and the Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN) were used to detect signals of risk for congenital malformations in offspring following maternal use of tetracyclines during pregnancy. A signal that met the threshold criteria of all above 5 methods was considered as a risk signal. Based on population-based cohort of the drug exposures and adverse pregnancy outcomes (DEEP) data from January 2013 to December 2021 in Xiamen City, propensity score matching (PSM)-based Poisson regression was applied to evaluate the association between the first-trimester tetracyclines exposure and congenital malformations in offspring. Adjusted relative risk (a RR) and its 95% confidence interval ( CI) were calculated. Sensitivity analysis was conducted to validate the reliability of the results. Results:A total of 304 098 reports of adverse events during pregnancy were obtained from the FAERS and CVAR databases. Among them, 5 028 reports were related to tetracyclines, including 1 026 reports of congenital malformations in offspring, involving congenital malformations of musculoskeletal system, other digestive system, and other congenital malformations. Signal detection results suggested that tetracyclines may be a risk signal for above congenital malformations in offspring. The DEEP data included 411 936 pregnant women. After PSM, 240 pregnant women exposed to tetracyclines were included. The results showed no significant association between the first-trimester tetracyclines exposure and congenital malformations in offspring (a RR=0.75, 95% CI: 0.26-2.17), sensitivity analysis also showed no correlation. Conclusions:Data mining from the FAERS and CVAR databases suggests a potential association between tetracyclines use during pregnancy and congenital malformations in offspring. However, the DEEP data study shows no significant correlation.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for the rational use of antiemetic drugs in tumor chemotherapy patients. METHODS The data of tumor patients who were given antiemetic drugs were collected from 9 departments of our hospital with hospital information system from Oct. 1st to Nov. 30th in 2022， such as oncology department， radiotherapy department， gynecology department， and gastroenterology department. The application of chemotherapy drugs and the use of antiemetic drugs were analyzed statistically， and the irrational use of antiemetic drugs was analyzed. RESULTS A total of 520 patients were included， involving 248 （47.69%） using chemotherapy drugs with a moderate emetogenic risk level and 135 （25.96%） with a high emetogenic risk level. A total of 461 cases （73.06%） of 5-hydroxytryptamine 3-receptor antagonists were used， including palonosetron in 333 cases， ondansetron in 106 cases， tropisetron in 15 cases and granisetron in 7 cases， and only 148 cases of patients were prioritized for the use of nationally procured medicines and national essential medicines （32.10%）. Neurokinin-1 receptor antagonists were used in 170 cases （26.94%）， including fosaprepitant in 112 cases and aprepitant in 58 cases. The use of antiemetic drugs was unreasonable in 162 patients （31.15%）； among the types of irrational drugs， the antiemetic regimen was unreasonable in the largest number of cases （22.40%）， followed by the irrational pharmacoeconomics （19.13%）. CONCLUSIONS The emetogenic risk levels of chemotherapy drugs used for tumor patients in our hospital are primarily moderate to high， and there is irrational use of antiemetic regimen and pharmacoeconomics. Clinicians， nurses， pharmacists and hospital departments should collaborate as multiple teams to strengthen full supervision of the standardization of antiemetic drugs， reasonably select antiemetic drugs based on emetogenicity rating， and improve the compliance of doctors with the guidelines to ensure the safety， effectiveness， and cost-effective of patient medication.

Objective:To explore the prevalence, clinical features, genetic characteristics and prognosis of Citrin deficiency in Henan province of China.Methods:A total of 986 565 neonates screened by tandem mass spectrometry at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2013 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Analysis of SLC25A13 gene variants and parental verification were carried out for neonates suspected for Citrin deficiency by next-generation sequencing. The clinical, biochemical and genetic characteristics of Citrin deficiency patients were integrated to guide the diet treatment and follow up the growth and development. Paired- t test was used to compare the amino acid levels in the peripheral blood samples before and after the treatment. Results:Nine cases of Citrin deficiency were diagnosed among the 986 565 neonates. Specific elevation of citrulline was observed in all of the 9 cases. Six variants were detected by genetic sequencing, among which c. 852_855delTATG, c. 615+ 5G>A, c. 550C>T and IVS16ins3kb were known pathogenic variants, whilst c. 1111_1112delAT and c. 837T>A were unreported previously. The detection rate for c. 852_855delTATG was the highest (61.6%, 11/18), followed by IVS16ins3kb (16.7%, 3/18). The clinical symptoms of all patients were relieved after the treatment, and the blood amino acid profile and biochemical parameters were significantly improved by gradually falling within the normal range. By June 2022, all patients had shown a good prognosis.Conclusion:The prevalence of Citrin deficiency among neonates from Henan Province by tandem mass spectrometry is 1/109 618, and the carrier rate for the pathogenic variants of the SLC25A13 gene was 1/166. The c. 852_855delTATG may be a hot spot variant among the patients. Discovery of the novel variants has enriched the mutational spectrum of the SLC25A13 gene. Above results have provided a basis for the early diagnosis, treatment, prognosis and genetic counseling for the affected families.

Acetaminophen is currently the most widely used antipyretic analgesics in clinical practice. The conventional dose of acetaminophen is safe and reliable, and long-term use in large quantities can cause damage to important organs. In recent years, some new safety issues of acetaminophen have been found, such as its possibility to increase blood pressure in patients with hypertension, its association with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality with sodium-containing acetaminophen, the discovery of multiple biomarkers for predicting and diagnosing acetaminophen-related liver injury and its prognosis, and its possibility to increase the risk of kidney injury. The safety prevention strategies for important organ injuries related to acetaminophen include strict restrictions on medication dosage and duration, and attention to medication safety for special populations. For patients who have experienced significant organ damages, their causal relationship should be evaluated, acetaminophen should be stopped, and specific treatment, and symptomatic and supportive treatments should be provided.

Myocardial dysfunction is the most serious complication of sepsis. Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction (SMD) is often associated with gastrointestinal dysfunction, but its pathophysiological significance remains unclear. The present study found that patients with SMD had higher plasma gastrin concentrations than those without SMD. In mice, knockdown of the gastrin receptor, cholecystokinin B receptor (Cckbr), aggravated lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cardiac dysfunction and increased inflammation in the heart, whereas the intravenous administration of gastrin ameliorated SMD and cardiac injury. Macrophage infiltration plays a significant role in SMD because depletion of macrophages by the intravenous injection of clodronate liposomes, 48 h prior to LPS administration, alleviated LPS-induced cardiac injury in Cckbr-deficient mice. The intravenous injection of bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) overexpressing Cckbr reduced LPS-induced myocardial dysfunction. Furthermore, gastrin treatment inhibited toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) expression through the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPAR-α) signaling pathway in BMMs. Thus, our findings provide insights into the mechanism of the protective role of gastrin/CCKBR in SMD, which could be used to develop new treatment modalities for SMD.

Objective:To explore the effect of early quantitative activities combined with integrated care concept on postoperative rehabilitation of patients undergoing radical prostatectomy.Methods:A total of 62 patients who were admitted to the PLA Navy Anqing Hospital and underwent laparoscopic radical prostatectomy from March 2018 to December 2021 were selected as the research objects by the convenient sampling method. They were divided into the control group and the observation group according to admission time, with 31 cases in each group. The control group was given early quantitative activities intervention, while the observation group was given early quantitative activities combined with integrated care concept intervention. The postoperative recovery and activity changes of the two groups were recorded, and the difference of self-care ability before and at discharge between the two groups was compared.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in the first postoperative exhaust time and the first postoperative ambulation time between the two groups ( P>0.05) . The duration of postoperative hospitalization in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group ( P<0.05) . At second and third day after surgery, the number of walking steps in the observation group were higher than that in the control group ( P<0.05) . The self-care ability score of the observation group was higher than that of the control group at discharge ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Early quantitative activities combined with integrated care concept can promote postoperative rehabilitation of patients undergoing radical prostatectomy and improve their self-care ability.
