ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the application of narrative education in undergraduate nursing teaching， to understand the current application status of narrative education， and to provide a theoretical basis for the subsequent establishment of a sound narrative education system. MethodsA systematic search was conducted for studies published in Chinese and English databases on applying narrative education to undergraduate nursing teaching， with the search period ranging from database inception to February 23， 2025. Literature was screened， and relevant information was extracted. A rigorous quality evaluation was conducted on the included studies， and a descriptive analysis was performed on their content. ResultsA total of 20 papers were included， involving 3，180 research subjects， all of whom were undergraduate nursing students. The results of descriptive analysis showed that the teaching model of narrative education primarily encompassed reading narrative works， watching films and videos， performing narrative scenarios， and writing reflective journals. The course setting and content covered pre-teaching preparation and in-teaching implementation. The evaluation of teaching effectiveness included the evaluation of teachers’ teaching methods （student evaluation/self-evaluation） and the evaluation of students’ learning effectiveness （course grade evaluation/humanistic care scale/empathy scale assessment， and others）. ConclusionNarrative education combines abstract concepts with concrete clinical situations， which not only enriches students’ learning experiences but also enhances their humanistic literacy. Meanwhile， it provides teachers with opportunities to develop their narrative teaching skills， which requires them to possess profound professional knowledge and employ narrative techniques to guide students in reflection and critical thinking， thereby improving teaching quality and learning outcomes. Future efforts should consistently deepen the connotation research of narrative education and build a systematic nursing education system.

INTRODUCTION: Lecanemab has shown promise in treating early Alzheimer's disease (AD), but its safety and efficacy in Chinese populations remain unexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and 6-month clinical outcomes of lecanemab in Chinese patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild AD. METHODS: In this single-arm, real-world study, participants with MCI due to AD or mild AD received biweekly intravenous lecanemab (10 mg/kg). The study was conducted at Hainan Branch, Ruijin Hospital Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. Patient enrollment and baseline assessments commenced in November 2023. Safety assessments included monitoring for amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) and other adverse events. Clinical and biomarker changes from baseline to 6 months were evaluated using cognitive scales (mini-mental state examination [MMSE], montreal cognitive assessment [MoCA], clinical dementia rating-sum of boxes [CDR-SB]), plasma biomarker analysis, and advanced neuroimaging. RESULTS: A total of 64 patients were enrolled in this ongoing real-world study. Safety analysis revealed predominantly mild adverse events, with infusion-related reactions (20.3%, 13/64) being the most common. Of these, 69.2% (9/13) occurred during the initial infusion and 84.6% (11/13) did not recur. ARIA-H (microhemorrhages/superficial siderosis) and ARIA-E (edema/effusion) were observed in 9.4% (6/64) and 3.1% (2/64) of participants, respectively, with only two symptomatic cases (one ARIA-E presenting with headache and one ARIA-H with visual disturbances). After 6 months of treatment, cognitive scores remained stable compared to baseline (MMSE: 22.33 ± 5.58 vs . 21.27 ± 4.30, P = 0.733; MoCA: 16.38 ± 6.67 vs . 15.90 ± 4.78, P = 0.785; CDR-SB: 2.30 ± 1.65 vs . 3.16 ± 1.72, P = 0.357), while significantly increasing plasma amyloid-β 42 (Aβ42) (+21.42%) and Aβ40 (+23.53%) levels compared to baseline. CONCLUSIONS: Lecanemab demonstrated a favorable safety profile in Chinese patients with early AD. Cognitive stability and biomarker changes over 6 months suggest potential efficacy, though high dropout rates and absence of a control group warrant cautious interpretation. These findings provide preliminary real-world evidence for lecanemab's use in China, supporting further investigation in larger controlled studies. REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov , NCT07034222.

Objective To analyze the differences and connections between the current grading and classification methods for nuclear medicine workplaces, and to provide technical guidance for environmental impact assessments and technical reviews. Methods By comparing the objects, purposes, and computational approaches between the two methods, this article illustrates the usage of both methods through specific examples and analyzes the relationship between them. Results The two methods differed in objects, purposes, and computational approaches. The A, B, and C grading scheme was primarily used to establish the level of administrative supervision for an entire nuclear medicine workplace. In contrast, the I, II, and III classification system specifies the hardware facilities and engineering protection requirements of internal places or rooms. Conclusion These two methods are complementary and collectively provide a complete framework for the assessment of nuclear medicine workplaces.

Objective To investigate the spatio-temporal expression of nuclear receptor subfamily 0 group B member 1(NR0B1)in synovial tissues of rheumatoid arthritis(RA),and to uncover the potential upstream signalling pathway that may regulate NR0B1 expression in human fibroblast-like synovial cells,thereby clarifying the possible factors that induce the disorder of NR0B1 expression in RA.Methods Patients with 25 RA and 18 osteoarthritis(OA)who did not receive any immunotherapy were recruited to obtain the synovial tissues of knee joint,as well as their related clinical test information,and the expression characteristics of NR0B1 in synovial tissue were investigated using Real-time PCR,Western blotting,immunohistochemistry and double immunofluorescent staining.Meanwhile,Pearson Chi-square test was used to evaluate the correlation between NR0B1 mRNA expression level and clinical parameters in RA patients.Furthermore,the MH7ANR0B1-/-cells that were stably knocked down of endogenous NR0B1 were generated,and the effects of NR0B1 deficiency on the phenotype of rheumatoid synovial cells enhanced by vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)were then evaluated by means of cell viability and apoptosis assays,colony formation assay,wound healing assay,and cell invasion assay.Last,we studied the molecular mechanism underlying interleuikin 6(IL-6)-mediated regulation of NR0B1 expression at the transcriptional level by using the STAT3-specific inhibitor intervention,siRNA,and dual luciferase reporter gene detection.Results The expression level of NR0B1 mRNA in the RA synovial tissues was significantly higher than that in synovial tissues from OA patients(P＜0.05).This trend of the increased NR0B1 mRNA expression correlated to clinical parameters,including C-reactive protein(CRP),rheumatoid factor(RF)and erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),in RA patients.NR0B1 protein was predominantly immunolocalized in fibroblast-like synoviocytes of RA synovial tissues.Functionally,knockdown of NR0B1 expression markedly neutralize the VEGF-mediated enhancement of cell viability,resistance to apoptosis,clonogenicity,as well as migration and invasion in the MH7A cells.Additionally,IL-6 could specifically regulate NR0B1 expression in the MH7A synovial cells.IL-6 upregulated the transcriptional expression of NR0B1 mainly through induction of the phosphorylation of its downstream STAT3 at the Tyr-705 site.Conclusion The upregulated NR0B1 expression in fibroblast-like synoviocytes is positively correlated with the progression of RA.The proinflammatory cytokine IL-6 potentiates the transactivation of NR0B1 by inducing the phosphorylation of Tyr-705 site of its downstream effector STAT3.NR0B1 may be a significant breakthrough point for understanding the interaction between IL-6 and VEGF signaling pathways and the progression of RA.

Objective To investigate the structural characteristics of intestinal flora in children with sepsis and its association with inflammatory response.Methods A prospective cohort study was conducted.The children with sepsis who were admitted from December 2021 to January 2023 were enrolled as the sepsis group,and the children with non-sepsis who were admitted during the same period were enrolled as the non-sepsis group.The two groups were compared in terms of the distribution characteristics of intestinal flora,peripheral white blood cell count(WBC),C reactive protein(CRP),and cytokines,and the correlation of the relative abundance of fecal flora with WBC,CRP,and cytokines was analyzed.Results At the genus level,compared with the non-sepsis group,the sepsis group had significantly lower relative abundance of Akkermansia,Ruminococcus,and Alistipes and significantly higher relative abundance of Enterococcus,Streptococcus,and Staphylococcus(P<0.05).At the phylum level,Proteobacteria was the dominant phylum(37.46%)in the group of children with a score of≤70 from the Pediatric Critical Illness Score(PICS),and Firmicutes was the dominant phylum in the group of children with a score of 71-80 or 81-90 from the PICS(72.20%and 43.88%,respectively).At the genus level,among the 18 specimens,5 had a relative abundance of>50%for a single flora.Compared with the non-sepsis group,the sepsis group had significant higher levels of WBC,CRP,interleukin-6(IL-6),interleukin-10(IL-10),and tumor necrosis factor-α(P<0.05).The Spearman's rank correlation analysis showed that at the genus level,the relative abundance of Ruminococcus,Alistipes,and Parasutterella in the sepsis group was negatively correlated with the levels of WBC,CRP,and IL-6(P<0.05);the relative abundance of Enterococcus was positively correlated with the CRP level(P<0.01);the relative abundance of Streptococcus and Staphylococcus was positively correlated with the levels of CRP and IL-6(P<0.05);the relative abundance of Streptococcus was positively correlated with WBC(P<0.05).Conclusions Intestinal flora disturbance is observed in children with sepsis,and its characteristics vary with the severity of the disease.The structural changes of intestinal flora are correlated with inflammatory response in children with sepsis.

Objective To explore the current application of high-throughput drug sensitivity(HDS)testing in children with relapsed and refractory acute leukemia(RR-AL)and analyze the feasibility of salvage treatment plans.Methods A retrospective collection of clinical data from children with RR-AL who underwent HDS testing at the Department of Children's Hematology and Oncology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from November 2021 to October 2023 was conducted,followed by an analysis of drug sensitivity results and treatment outcomes.Results A total of 17 children with RR-AL underwent HDS testing,including 7 cases of relapsed refractory acute myeloid leukemia and 10 cases of relapsed refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia.The detection rate of highly sensitive chemotherapy drugs/regimens was 53%(9/17),while the detection rate of moderately sensitive chemotherapy drugs/regimens was 100%(17/17).Among the 17 RR-AL patients with highly and moderately sensitive chemotherapy drugs and regimens,the MOACD regimen(mitoxantrone+vincristine+cytarabine+cyclophosphamide+dexamethasone)accounted for 100%,with the highest inhibition rate for single-agent mitoxantrone(94%,16/17),and the highest inhibition rate for targeted therapy being bortezomib(94%,16/17).Nine patients adjusted their chemotherapy based on HDS testing results,with 4 undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.Four patients achieved disease-free survival,while 5 died.Eight patients received empirical chemotherapy,with 2 undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation;4 achieved disease-free survival,while 4 died.Conclusions HDS testing can identify highly sensitive drugs/regimens for children with RR-AL,improving the rate of re-remission and creating conditions for subsequent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Altitude sickness is a disease caused by series of physiological and pathological changes and compensatory adaptation changes caused by acute or chronic exposure to high altitude hypoxia.High altitude pulmonary edema(HAPE)and high altitude cerebral edema are life-threatening diseases that are likely to develop;chronic high-altitude sickness,if not taken seriously,can affect various systems of the patient.This article reviews the drug prevention and treatment of three types of altitude sickness,HAPE,high altitude polycythemia(HAPC),and high altitude pulmonary hypertension(HAPH),to provide a reference for the rapid adaptation of people entering high altitudes and the health care of high-altitude residents.

AIM:This study aim to investigate the effects of lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced inflammation on the aging phenotype of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells(HSPCs)in the bone marrow(BM)and spleen of mice.METHODS:(1)Young(2-month old)wild-type(WT)mice were treated with LPS to establish an actue inflammation model.The percentage of HSPCs in the BM and spleen of mice after LPS stimulation,as well as the ratio of mature cells in peripheral blood(PB)and spleen,were analyzed using flow cytometry.The proliferation of HSPCs in the BM and spleen was evaluated by examining the expression of the proliferation marker Ki67.In addition,changes in CD45 expression on HSPCs in the spleen of mice following LPS exposure were investigated by flow cytometry.(2)The percentage of HSPCs in BM and mature cells in PB and spleen of both young(2-month old)and old(24-month old)WT mice were analyzed by flow cytometry.(3)The transcriptome changes of hematopoietic stem cells(HSCs)after LPS stimulation was performed by an in silico analysis.RESULTS:(1)Mice exposed to LPS exhibited a significant increase in the percentage of HSPCs in BM and a marked elevation in the percentages of myeloid cells in PB and spleen compared to the mice in control group(P<0.05).(2)LPS exposure resulted in increased spleen weight and cell counts(P<0.05),along with a higher per-centage of HSPCs in the spleen compared to controls(P<0.05).(3)LPS stimulation promoted the proliferation of HSPCs in the BM and spleen(P<0.05).(4)The expression of CD45 was reduced on HSPCs from spleen of mice after LPS stimu-lation(P<0.01).(5)In comparison to young mice,aged mice showed an increase in spleen weight and a higher percent-age of HSPCs in the spleen(P<0.05).(6)Aged mice,in comparison to young mice,demonstrated a significantly higher percentage of HSPCs in the BM and myeloid skewing in the PB and spleen(P<0.01).(7)The silico analysis revealed up-regualtion of reactive oxygen species(ROS)and apoptosis signaling in HSPCs following LPS stimulation.CONCLU-SION:Young HSPCs stimulated by LPS exhibited an increase in cell number,a bias towards myeloid differentiation,en-hanced extramedullary hematopoiesis,and elevated levels of ROS and apoptosis,all of which collectively manifested the aging phenotype of HSPCs.

Objective To explore the current status of H.pylori infection in the natural population of Sanya City,analyze its influencing factors,and provide a reference basis for the prevention and control of H.pylori infection.Methods A total of 677 residents from four districts of Sanya City were selected by overall stratified random sampling method,and were subjected to urea 14C breath test and questionnaire survey to calculate the positive rate of H.pylori in the natural population and analyze the influencing factors of H.pylori infection.Results A total of 606 residents were included,and the number of H.pylori positive detections was 261,with a positive detection rate of 38.5％.Among them,different ethnicity,marital status,smoking,eating vegetables and fruits,and literacy level were associated with H.pylori infection(P＜0.05);gender,age,BMI,alcohol consumption,drinking water source,betel quid chewing,and the number of cohabitants were not significantly associated with H.pylori infection(P＞0.05).Family infection was an independent risk factor for H.pylori infection in the natural population of Sanya City,and Li ethnicity,frequent consumption of fruits and vegetables,and college and higher education level were independent protective factors for H.pylori infection in the natural population of Sanya City.Conclusion The rate of H.pylori infection in the natural population of Sanya City is lower than the national average.Consuming more fruits and vegetables and improving the awareness of hygiene protection are conducive to the prevention of H.pylori infection;and the promotion of the family and related members with the same examination and treatment is important to avoid aggregation of infection within the family.

Objective To explore the relevant risk factors of H.pylori infection,and provide reference for prevention and treatment of H.pylori in this area,and further provide theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer.Methods A total of 1200 residents in four districts of Haikou city were investigated by questionnaire and urea 14 C breath test by holistic stratified random sampling to calculate the population infection rate and analyze the risk factors of infection.Results The total infection rate was 32.5％,which was lower than the national H.pylori infection rate.No consumption of fruits and vegetables,no habit of washing hands before meals,and people with gastrointestinal symptoms,are independent risk factors of H.pylori infection.No consumption of pickled products is of great significance to prevent H.pylori infection.Conclusion The prevalence of H.pylori infection in the population of Haikou is lower than the national average,and H.pylori infection is closely related to the poor living habits of residents.
