Objective:To construct an early rehabilitation management model for postoperative kinesiophobia patients after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) based on a topic-oriented quality control circle method, aiming to improve the quality of early rehabilitation management.Methods:Using a convenience sampling method, 120 TKA patients with kinesiophobia treated in the Department of Orthopedics at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January to April 2022 and September to December 2022 were selected. The patients from January to April 2022 were set as the control group, and those from September to December 2022 were set as the observation group, with 60 patients in each group. The control group received routine rehabilitation management after TKA surgery, while the observation group received the early rehabilitation management model based on the 10 steps of the topic-oriented quality control circle (topic selection, activity planning, clarification of the topic, goal setting, countermeasure formulation, pursuit of optimal strategies, etc.) in addition to the routine management. The differences between the two groups were compared in terms of kinesiophobia score, knee function score, pain score, early rehabilitation assessment rate, effective analgesia rate, and 24-hour ambulation rate.Results:After the intervention, the observation group showed significantly lower knee pain scores (2.89±0.66) and kinesiophobia scores (23.27±4.87) compared to the control group, with a significantly higher knee function score (74.47±7.40), all differences were statistically significant (all P<0.01). Additionally, the observation group had a significantly higher early rehabilitation assessment rate, effective analgesia rate, 24-hour ambulation rate, early rehabilitation compliance rate, earlier time for the first ambulation, shorter hospital stay, and reduced costs compared to the control group, with all differences showing statistical significance (all P<0.01) . Conclusions:The application of the topic-oriented quality control circle to construct and implement an early rehabilitation management model for postoperative kinesiophobia patients after TKA can effectively improve the quality of early rehabilitation management, reduce kinesiophobia levels, enhance knee joint function, and alleviate the economic burden.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of modified Guizhi Fuling Pills in treating diabetic kidney disease(DKD)through autophagy regulation based on network pharmacology and experimental validation.Methods Active components and action targets of modified Guizhi Fuling Pills were screened via the TCMSP database.DKD-related autophagy targets were obtained from GeneCards,TTD,DrugBank and PharmGKB.A protein-protein interaction network was constructed using STRING,followed by GO functional and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses via DAVID.Molecular docking of key components and core targets was performed using AutoDock Tools 1.5.7.DKD model rats were prepared.The rats were randomly divided into normal group,model group,valsartan group(50 mg/kg),and modified Guizhi Fuling Pills low-,medium-and high-dosage group(9.9,19.8 and 39.6 g/kg).After 8-week interventions,body mass and water intake were recorded;fasting blood glucose,24 h urinary total protein(24 hUTP),urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio(UACR)were monitored.Renal histopathology was evaluated via HE and Masson staining.Western blot was used to detect protein expressions of AMPK/FOXO1 pathway(p-AMPK,AMPK,FOXO1)and autophagy markers(Beclin-1,p62),while quantitative real-time PCR was used to assess AMPK and FOXO1 mRNA expressions.Results A total of 146 active components of Guizhi Fuling Pills and 33 main targets for treating DKD were screened,with the core targets including FOXO1,BCL2,TP53 and PTEN.KEGG pathway enrichment analysis suggested that AMPK/FOXO1 signaling pathway,AGE-RAGE and insulin signaling pathways may play a core regulatory role.Guizhi Fuling Pills could significantly reduce the body mass of DKD rats,reduce water intake,decrease renal index,decrease fasting blood glucose,24 hUTP and UACR(P<0.05,P<0.01),improve renal tissue pathology,increase AMPK,FOXO1,Beclin-1 protein expressions and AMPK,FOXO1 mRNA expressions(P<0.05),and reduce p62 protein expression(P<0.05).Conclusion Modified Guizhi Fuling Pills may exert therapeutic effects on DKD by regulating the AMPK-FOXO1-autophagy axis.

Objective:To translate and revise the Arteriovenous Fistula Assessment Scale (AVF-AS), test the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of AVF-AS.Methods:The modified Brislin translation model was used to translate, back translate and cross culture adjust AVF-AS, forming the Chinese version of AVF-AS. Using the convenient sampling method, 220 hemodialysis patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were selected for investigation from July to September 2022. Two weeks later, 30 patients were randomly selected for retesting. The valid data were used for project analysis and reliability and validity evaluation.Results:The Chinese version of AVF-AS consisted of 3 factors and 18 items. Consistency level between evaluators was 0.94, the item level content validity index was 0.83-1.00, average scale level content validity index was 0.94, and the calibration validity was 0.68.Three common factors(autogenous arteriovenous fistula blood flow, stenosis and ischemia, puncture location) were extracted from exploratory factors, and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 75.255%. The total scale's Cronbach α was 0.946, the half reliability of each dimension was 0.826 - 0.898, and the test-retest reliability was 0.907.Conclusions:The Chinese version of AVF-AS has good reliability and validity, and can be used as an effective tool to evaluate the autogenous arteriovenous fistula functional status of hemodialysis patients in China.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical phenotype and genetic characteristics of a patient with Alport syndrome. METHODS: A patient with Alport syndrome who had visited the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in November 2020 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the patient were collected. High-throughput sequencing was carried out to detect potential variant of the COL4A3, COL4A4 and COL4A5 genes, and Sanger sequencing was carried out for verification of candidate variants in the family. RESULTS: The main clinical manifestations of the patient included hematuria, proteinuria, and impaired hearing. Audiometric testing suggested symmetrical cochlear sensory neural hearing loss on both sides. Renal biopsy revealed mild mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis. Genetic testing revealed that the patient has harbored compound heterozygous variants of the COL4A4 gene, namely c.940G>A (p.Gly314Ser) and c.3773G>A (p.Gly1258Asp), which were respectively inherited from her father and mother. Neither variant has been reported before, and were predicted to be pathogenic based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics. CONCLUSION The c.940G>A (p.Gly314Ser) and c.3773G>A (p.Gly1258Asp) compound heterozygous variants of the COL4A4 gene probably underlay the Alport syndrome in this patient. Above finding has enriched the mutational spectrum of the COL4A4 gene.

Objective:To explore the effect of integrated comprehensive management model in the management of arteriovenous fistula in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods:From January to December 2020, 174 patients undergoing MHD in the Blood Purification Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were selected as the research object by convenience sampling. According to the random number table method, the patients were divided into the integrated management group and the routine management group, with 87 cases in each group. Patients in the routine management group received routine vascular access nursing after admission. On the basis of routine vascular access nursing, the integrated management group introduced a multidisciplinary vascular access management team to apply it to the access management of MHD patients, and divided the vascular access management into five key links of preoperative assessment, access establishment, access use, access monitoring and access maintenance, and formulated specific measures and content for each link to implemented an integrated comprehensive management model. After three months of intervention, the successful rate of one-time puncture, the use rate of the first dialysis internal fistula, the incidence of associated complications and dialysis tolerance were compared between the two groups.Results:The one-time puncture success rate and the first dialysis internal fistula usage rate in the integrated management group were higher than those in the routine management group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The overall complication rate in the integrated management group was 6.90% (6/87) , which was lower than 31.03% (27/87) in the routine management group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=16.491, P<0.01) . The scores of the two parts and total scores of the dialysis tolerance in the integrated management group were higher than those in the routine management group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The integrated comprehensive management model applied in the management of vascular access in MHD patients can increase the one-time puncture success rate of arteriovenous fistula and the use rate of the first dialysis fistula, reduce the incidence of associated complications, and improve patient tolerance.

Objective:To explore the effects of nursing program-based dietary intervention combined with family support in hemodialysis patients.Methods:The clinical data of 180 hemodialysis patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from September 2019 to September 2020 were selected by convenient sampling and retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into control group and observation group with 90 cases in each group according to different nursing methods. Patients in the control group received routine dietary care, while patients in the observation group underwent nursing program-based dietary intervention combined with family support on this basis. The nutritional status and dialysis compliance were compared between the two groups at the time of enrollment, 3 months, and 6 months after the intervention.Results:3 and 6 months after the intervention, the levels of body mass index, total protein, albumin, prealbumin, total lymphocyte count, and white blood cell count in the two groups increased, and the observation group was better than the control group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05) . At 3 and 6 months after the intervention, the scores of each dimension of compliance in the two groups increased, and the scores of each dimension in the observation group were better than those in the control group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Nursing program-based dietary intervention combined with family support can improve the nutritional status and dialysis compliance of hemodialysis patients, which is worth promoting in clinical practice.

Objective:To understand the psychological status and nursing needs of maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients and provide reference for clinical targeted nursing.Methods:Using the phenomenological research method, a total of 15 patients with MHD in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were selected as the research objects by the purposive sampling method, and they were given semi-structured individualized interviews. The Colaizzi 7-step analysis method was used to organize the data, extract the inductive themes and analyze the results.Results:The psychological status of MHD patients was repressed fear, despair and helplessness and acceptance. The nursing needs of MHD patients included disease-related knowledge needs, social support needs and health guidance needs.Conclusions:MHD patients have negative psychology.
