Objective:To investigate the clinical application effect and preliminary experience of ureteroscopy-assisted flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy in the treatment of transplanted kidney stones.Method:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 9 kidney transplant recipients with graft stones who underwent ureteroscopy-assisted flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between January 2020 and January 2023. The recipients' general information, surgical procedures, and postoperative outcomes were reviewed and summarized. Additionally, a comprehensive literature search was performed in both Chinese and international databases, including CNKI, Wanfang, and the China Academic Journals Full-text Database, as well as PubMed and Web of Science. The search terms included " kidney transplant" "flexible ureteroscope" "ureteroscope" and " urinary tract stones" . The search covered all publications available up to December 2023.Result:The 9 recipients had a mean age of 37. 56 years (range: 27–54 years) . The onset time of the kidney stones ranged from 1 to 13 months after kidney transplantation. All recipients were diagnosed with transplanted kidney stones by CT and showed no symptoms of kidney colic at the time of onset. All transplanted kidneys were located in the right iliac fossa, with varying degrees of hydronephrosis. The smallest stone diameter was 0. 5 cm, and the largest was 1. 3 cm. The number of stones ranged from 1 to 3 per recipient; 6 cases had solitary stones, and 3 had multiple stones in the renal pelvis and calyces. In all 9 surgeries, the ureteral orifice of the transplanted kidney was located at the apex of the bladder using ureteroscopy, and a hydrophilic guidewire was inserted into the renal pelvis. A second ureteroscopy was then performed, guiding the ureteroscope tip into the transplanted ureteral orifice in coaxial alignment with the guidewire. A flexible ureteroscope sheath was advanced along the guidewire, followed by the insertion of a digital flexible ureteroscope to perform holmium laser dusting lithotripsy. Stone composition analysis revealed mixed calcium oxalate monohydrate and calcium oxalate dihydrate. The surgical duration ranged from 30 to 75 minutes. No complications such as massive bleeding, septic shock, or rejection occurred. Postoperative review at 1 month, after ureteral stent removal, showed no residual stones in any patient. During 6 months of follow-up, no recurrence of stones was observed, and the renal function of the transplanted kidneys remained stable compared to preoperative levels. A total of 19 related articles were identified through literature review, including 11 in English and 8 in Chinese. Chinese reports on transplanted kidney stones were all from single-center studies with small case numbers. In contrast, foreign meta-analyses and multicenter studies showed that treatments for transplanted kidney stones abroad mainly included antegrade/retrograde ureteroscopy and percutaneous nephroscopy.Conclusion:Ureteroscopy-assisted flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy is a feasible treatment for transplanted kidney stones. It can effectively protect graft kidney function and has promising clinical application prospects.

Objective:To explore the application effect of key node advanced nursing mode in the treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction.Methods:In October 2020, the hospital established a Critical Control Point rescue mode management team.122 patients with acute myocardial infarction admitted to emergency department of the hospital were enrolled as the objects between October 2020 and October 2021. The healthcare failure mode and effect analysis model was applied to analyze the shortcomings of emergency process, so as to construct critical control point rescue mode in the treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction and apply it to the clinic in November 2021. After clinical application, emergency nursing and cardiac function recovery were compared between the two groups. The mortality rate within 30 d after surgery and occurrence of complications during hospitalization were recorded.Results:The first medical contact to balloon time dropped from (81.9±6.54) min to (56.2±4.23)min. The time from first medical contact to diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction dropped from (47.3±5.68) min to (30.69±5.21) min, the door-balloon dilation time dropped from (49.79±13.84) min to (28.63±15.71) min, producing results time of myocardial injury markers dropped from (28.38±3.79)min to (19.26±2.17) min, reporting time of electrocardiogram dropped from (5.82±2.01) min to (5.14±1.89)min, and hospitalization time dropped from (7.25±2.18) min to (6.14±1.27) min, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). After treatment, left ventricular ejection fraction in observation group was higher than that in control group, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and cardiac troponin were lower than those in control group ( P<0.05). The incidence of hypotension and malignant arrhythmia in observation group was lower than that in control group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The critical control point rescue mode can shorten treatment time and hospitalization time in acute myocardial infarction patients, improve cardiac function, and reduce the risk of complications during hospitalization.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of the position pillows for neuraxial anesthesia.Methods:This was a prospective randomized controlled trial. Four hundred and twelve patients regardless of gender, aged ≥18 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ-Ⅲ, who underwent elective surgery under neuraxial anesthesia at Peking University Third Hospital from February to October 2023, were selected and divided into 2 groups ( n=206 each) using a random number table method: pillow group (P group) and control group (C group). Group C underwent the conventional procedure for neuraxial anesthesia. The patients were placed in a position using the position pillow on the basis of oral education before routine anesthesia in group P. The success rate of puncture at first attempt, puncture time and position placement time were recorded. The adjustment of position, body movement and occurrence of discomfort during the puncture were also recorded. The visual analogue scale score was used to evaluate the level of anxiety before positioning, after positioning and after anesthesia. The visual analogue scale score was used to evaluate the patient′s comfort and the operator′s satisfaction with position after the anesthesia was completed. Results:Compared with group C, the time for positioning was significantly shortened, the anxiety level was decreased after positioning and after anesthesia, the rate of improvement in anxiety was increased, the scores for the patient′s comfort and the operator′s satisfaction with position were increased ( P<0.05), and no significant changes were found in the success rate of puncture at first attempt, puncture time and incidence of body movement during the puncture and incidence of the adjustment of position ( P>0.05). No discomfort was observed in either group during the puncture. Conclusions:This new type of position pillows for the neuraxial anesthesia can not only optimize the effect of position placement, but also improve the patients′ comfort.

BackgroundAnxiety exists as a prevalent psychological problem among college students nowadays, which brings negative influence on their normal life. Mobile phone addiction and loneliness both have an impact on college students' anxiety. However, the acting path of loneliness between mobile phone addiction and anxiety requires further exploration. ObjectiveTo analyze the relationships among mobile phone addiction, loneliness and anxiety in college students, and to explore the acting path of loneliness between mobile phone addiction and anxiety. MethodsOn December 21, 2023, 1 400 college students from a university in Henan Province were selected, in accordance with the simple random sampling method, for investigation of this study. Questionnaire survey was conducted by using several scales including Mobile Phone Addiction Tendency Scale (MPATS), Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and University of California Los Angeles-Loneliness Scale (UCLA-LS). Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation between the scores of each scale above, and SPSS macro program Process 3.3 was used to test the mediation effect. ResultsA total of 1 239 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective recovery rate of 88.50%. The MPATS score of college students was positively correlated with both SAS and UCLA-LS scores (r=0.474, 0.387, P<0.01), and UCLA-LS score was positively correlated with SAS score (r=0.541, P<0.01). The indirect effect of loneliness between mobile phone addiction and anxiety was 0.160 (95% CI: 0.118~0.173), accounting for 33.97% of the total effect. ConclusionMobile phone addiction can positively predict anxiety among college students, and loneliness may act as the mediation path between mobile phone addiction and anxiety among college students.

Objective:
To compare the effectiveness of qualitative and quantitative fecal immunochemical tests (FIT) in identifying colorectal cancer, so as to provide insights into perfecting screening strategies for colorectal cancer.
Methods:
Participants in the Colorectal Cancer Screening Program for Key Populations in Zhejiang Province from May 2020 to December 2021 were recruited, and their demographic information, lifestyle and disease history were collected through a questionnaire survey. Qualitative or quantitative FIT along with a questionnaire-based risk assessment were employed as the initial screening tests. Individuals who were positive in any FIT or had high-risk assessment results were required to attend a subsequent colonoscopy examination. The positive rate, detection rate of colorectal cancer, positive predictive value and number of colonoscopies required were compared between qualitative and quantitative FITs, and stratified analyses by gender and age were conducted.
Results:
Totally 4 099 769 participants were included. The qualitative FIT group included 3 574 917 individuals, yielding a positive rate of 11.35%, a detection rate of 1.19%, a positive predictive value of 0.48% and 83.84 colonoscopies required to detect one cancer case. The quantitative FIT group involved 524 852 individuals, yielding a positive rate of 6.70%, a detection rate of 2.31%, a positive predictive value of 1.01% and 43.23 colonoscopies required to detect one cancer case. The quantitative FIT group showed significantly higher detection rate of colorectal cancer, higher positive predictive value and less number of colonoscopies required compared to the qualitative FIT group (all P<0.05). The same results were obtained after stratification by gender and age.
Conclusion
Compared to qualitative FIT, quantitative FIT improves the detection of colorectal cancer and reduces the workload of colonoscopy examinations, making it more suitable for colorectal cancer screening in large-scale populations.
