Objective:To evaluate the current status of satisfaction with community and home-based integrated elderly care and medical services in Chengdu and explore its influencing factors,providing policy recommendations for service optimization.Methods:A purposive sampling method was used to conduct a satisfaction survey among elderly in seven institutions in Chengdu with community and home-based integrated elderly care and medical services.Binary logistic regression were employed to analyze influencing factors of satisfaction with the services.Results:The overall satisfaction score for community and home-based integrated elderly care and medical services was(4.19±0.41).The highest satisfaction was reported for traditional Chinese medicine appropriate techniques healthcare services,whereas the lowest satisfaction was observed for rehabilitation knowledge training services for family members or other caregivers.Binary logistic regression analysis revealed that ethnicity,living arrangement,and depressive status were significant influencing factors(P＜0.05).Conclusions:The elderly in Chengdu exhibit relatively high overall satisfaction with community and home-based integrated elderly care and medical services.More attention should be paid to improving service accessibility for the elderly with mental health issues,promoting TCM services,strengthening rehabilitation nursing service systems,encouraging family or community participation in caregiving,and optimizing the social support network for community and home-based integrated elderly care and medical services.

Objective:To explore the correlation between elderly education and health status of elderly people in urban and rural areas.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted from Jul 2024 to Dec 2024 involving 200 elderly people aged 60 and above in Shenyang.Among them,62 participated in elderly education and 138 did not.The psychological and health status of the two groups were evaluated using the Satisfaction with Life Scale(SWLS),Hamilton Anxiety and Depression Scale,Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale,and a self-designed questionnaire on health status.Results:There were statistically significant differences in age,years of education,occupation(before retirement),living conditions,and residential location between the two groups(P＜0.05).There were statistically significant differences in life satisfaction,delayed recall ability,and occurrence of physical limitations between the two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Conducting elderly education for the elderly population is of great significance in promoting their physical and mental health,promoting the construction of a positive aging concept,and establishing a comprehensive elderly health system.

Objective:To conduct a scoping review of financial toxicity assessment tools both domestically and internationally,and to summarize their scoring methods,evaluation content,development approaches,reliability/validity,and application status,aiming to provide references for selecting or developing such tools.Methods:Following scoping review methodology,databases including CNKI,VIP,Wanfang,PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,and CINAHL were searched for studies on financial toxicity assessment tools,with the search period spanning from database inception to Oct 8,2024.Results:A total of 34 eligible studies were included,covering 14 financial toxicity assessment tools.These tools primarily focused on economic status,psychosocial responses,or coping behaviors.Tools developed by domestic scholars exhibited strong specificity but lacked generalizability.Conclusions:Existing financial toxicity assessment tools are diverse,yet their reliability and validity in Chinese patient populations require further validation.Most scales lack comprehensive dimensions,and domestically developed tools are overly specific.A universal assessment tool suitable for China's cultural and policy environment needs to be developed.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors of post-treatment recurrence in children with hemangioma and construct a nomogram prediction model.Methods:A total of 280 children with hemangioma treated with propranolol in our hospital from May 2021 to May 2023 were enrolled and divided into the recurrence group(71 cases)and the non-recurrence group(209 cases)based on post-treatment outcomes.Multivariable logistic regression was performed to analyze the factors influencing the recurrence of hemangioma.R package 4.0'rms'was used to construct a nomogram model for predicting the recurrence.Calibration and decision curves were used to internally validate the nomogram model and evaluate the clinical prediction effectiveness.Results:Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that hemangioma type(OR=1.754,95%CI:1.102-3.565),medication dosage(OR=1.774,95%CI:1.132-4.993),treatment duration(OR=1.841,95%CI:1.142-5.845),age at initial medication(OR=1.695,95%CI:1.104-3.450),and age at treatment discontinuation(OR=1.889,95%CI:1.218-5.254)were independent risk factors of post-treatment recurrence of hemangioma among the children(P＜0.05).The calibration curve of the nomogram model closely aligned with the original and ideal curves,with a C-index of 0.810(0.746-0.873).The decision curve showed that the threshold value of the nomogram model was＞0.17,with high net clinical benefit for all of them,and was higher than the hemangioma type,medication dosage,treatment duration,age at initial medication,and age at treatment discontinuation.Conclusions:The factors affecting post-treatment recurrence in children with hemangiomas are hemangioma type,medication dosage,treatment duration,age at initial medication,and age at treatment discontinuation.A nomogram model constructed using these factors as predictors can help to predict and evaluate post-treatment recurrence in children with hemangiomas,enabling early intervention and improved prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance and predictive efficacy of serum homocysteine(Hcy)and interleukin-6(IL-6)in women with early-pregnancy recurrent spontaneous abortion(RSA).Methods:From Aug 2021 to Aug 2024,35 women with early-pregnancy RSA were selected from Changzhi People's Hospital and designated as the RSA group,and 44 women with no history of recurrent miscarriage in early pregnancy were chosen as the control group.Enzymatic cycling assay was used to determine the serum Hcy level,and immunofluorescence assay was used to detect the serum IL-6 level.Binary logistic regression model was applied to assess the potential impact of serum Hcy and IL-6 levels on RSA.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was utilized to evaluate the diagnostic value of serum Hcy and IL-6 levels for RSA.Results:RSA group exhibited significantly higher Hcy levels(P＜0.01)and lower IL-6 levels(P＜0.01)compared to the control group.High level of serum Hcy(OR=1.628,95%CI:1.169-2.266)and low level of serum IL-6(OR=0.478,95%CI:0.289-0.791)significantly affected recurrent miscarriage(P＜0.05).ROC analysis showed AUC values of 0.765(Hcy),0.851(IL-6),and 0.919(combined),with sensitivities of 65.7%,91.4%,and 77.1%,and specificities of 86.4%,59.1%,and 100%,respectively.Conclusions:There are significant differences in the levels of serum Hcy and IL-6 between RSA patients and healthy controls.Serum Hcy combined with IL-6 detection has certain diagnostic value for predicting RSA.

Objective:To explore the application of BOPPPS(Bridge-in,Objective,Pre-assessment,Participatory Learning,Post-assessment,Summary)combined with Direct Observation of Procedural Skills(DOPS)in anesthesiology teaching under the background of medical-educational collaboration.Methods:A total of 60 students majoring in anesthesiology were selected as the research objects.A total of 30 students in grade 2018 were enrolled in the control group and receired traditional teaching mode.A total of 30 students in grade 2019 were enrolled in the research group and received BOPPPS teaching mode.The assessment of the internship after graduation for both groups adopted the DOPS assessment mode.Two groups of students were subject to pre-enrollment assessment,including process evaluations,such as theoretical class attendance,classroom interaction,pre-test scores,post-test scores,and the final theoretical test score.A comprehensive evaluation of teachers'teaching effect was conducted.When the two groups were discharged from the department,in addition to the assessment of professional theoretical knowledge of anesthesia and the operation of conventional anesthesia skills,they also underwent nine DOPS assessments.Results:There was no statistical difference between the two groups in the attendance(P＞0.05).The classroom interaction,pre-test scores,post-test scores,final test scores and total test scores in the study group were higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).In terms of comprehensive evaluation of teaching effect,there was no statistical difference between the two groups in the evaluation of teachers'teaching attitude(P＞0.05).However,the research group reported higher satisfaction in teaching skills,methods,student-teacher interaction,and classroom engagement(P＜0.05).Both the theoretical and practical scores in the research group were higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The DOPS assessment results showed that the research group was superior to the control group in terms of indication mastery,operation completion,teamwork and problem-solving ability,and comprehensive ability performance(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The application effect of BOPPPS combined with DOPS in anesthesiology teaching is better than the conventional teaching mode.

Objective:To explore the effect of the Nurse-Mini-CEX assessment method combined with PBL teaching mode in the cultivation of core competencies of undergraduate nursing students during ICU internships.Methods:A total of 64 nursing students interning in the ICU of a Third-grade Class-A hospital in Wuhu City from Sep 2022 to Aug 2023 were selected and randomly divided into 8 groups(8 students in each group).Using cluster sampling,4 groups(32 students)were assigned to the experimental group,receiving training via Nursing-Mini-CEX combined with PBL,while the remaining 4 groups(32 students)served as the control group,undergoing traditional clinical teaching.All students completed a 2-month pre-ICU clinical internship,followed by a 4-week ICU internship.Results:Compared to the control group,the experimental group showed significantly higher scores in five dimensions of nursing competency:nursing consultation,nursing physical examination,nursing diagnosis,nursing interventions,and holistic evaluation(P＜0.05).Additionally,the experimental group outperformed the control group in core competencies,including clinical nursing skills,leadership,interpersonal communication,professional development,critical thinking and research ability(P＜0.05).Self-efficacy in learning ability and behavior,as well as scores in personal accomplishment,depersonalization,and emotional exhaustion,were also higher in the experimental group(P＜0.05).Furthermore,the experimental group reported greater satisfaction with training content,teaching effectiveness,clinical skill development,teamwork cultivation,and overall satisfaction(P＜0.05).Conclusions:Nursing-Mini-CEX assessment combined with PBL teaching mode effectively enhances core competencies and self-efficacy,reduces burnout among ICU nursing interns,and achieve good clinical results,providing a theoretical and practical basis for the teaching and training of nursing students in ICU.However,as a single-center study,further validation and broader studies are warranted.

Objective:To investigate the application effect of the micro-lecture guided self-inquiry teaching mode in Medical Physics experiment course.Methods:Using cluster sampling,two classes(62 students,31 per class)from 18 administrative classes of grade 2021 majoring in Clinical Medicine at a medical college were selected.The original class structure was maintained,with random assignment to the control group(traditional teaching)and the experimental group(micro-lecture guided self-inquiry teaching).Both groups underwent comprehensive assessment and teaching satisfaction surveys,followed by comparative analysis.Results:The class performance,experimental report scores,practical assessment scores and total scores in the experimental group were all higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Satisfaction scores in the experimental group were higher in areas including relevance to practical application,teaching diversity,class discussion interactivity,collaborative learning format,improvement in practical skills,enhancement of self-directed learning and innovation abilities,stimulation of learning interest,and cultivation of scientific research thinking(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The micro-lecture guided self-inquiry teaching mode improves teaching effectiveness,enhances students'comprehensive competencies,increases teaching satisfaction,and aligns with the goal of cultivating application-oriented talents.

Objective:To develop a 5-year mortality risk prediction model for patients with small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the cervix(SCNEC).Methods:Based on the Surveillance,Epidemiology,and End Results(SEER)database and R software version 4.3.3,variables were screened via Lasso regression,followed by multivariable logistic regression and stepwise regression to develop a 5-year mortality risk prediction model for SCNEC patients.The Akaike Information Criterion(AIC),C-index,receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,Hosmer-Lemeshow test,and calibration curve were employed to evaluate the model.Results:Age,M stage,surgical status,and lymph node metastasis were ultimately selected as variables to construct the 5-year mortality risk prediction model for SCNEC patients.The model demonstrated superior predictive performance compared to FIGO staging(P＜0.01).The Hosmer-Lemeshow test yielded a P-value＞0.05.The C-index values for the training and validation sets were 0.808 and 0.755,respectively,with the areas under the ROC curves of 0.826 and 0.744.The calibration curves of the model fluctuated near the diagonal line,indicating good agreement between predicted and observed outcomes.The decision curve analysis demonstrated significant clinical net benefit.Results showed that higher mortality risk was associated with advanced age,M1 status,lymph node metastasis,and lack of surgical opportunity.Conclusions:The model exhibits good discriminatory power and accuracy,providing significant benefits to patients.Enhanced management should be implemented for patients with advanced age,distant metastasis,lymph node metastasis,or ineligibility for surgery.Lymph node metastasis is an independent risk factor for 5-year mortality in patients with SCNEC.
