In 2022, Hainan provincial government launched the project for the prevention and control of viral hepatitis with the goals of a hepatitis B screening rate of 90%, a diagnostic rate of 90%, and a treatment rate of 80% among people aged 18 years and above by the year 2025, and the main intervention measures include population-based prevention, case screening, antiviral therapy, and health management. As of December 31, 2024, a total of 6.875 million individuals in the general population had been screened for hepatitis B, with a screening rate of 95.6%. A total of 184 710 individuals with positive HBsAg were identified, among whom 156 772 were diagnosed through serological reexamination, resulting in a diagnostic rate of 84.9%. A total of 50 742 patients with chronic hepatitis B were identified, among whom 42 921 had hepatitis B-specific health records established for health management, with a file establishment rate of 84.6%. A total of 31 553 individuals received antiviral therapy, with a treatment rate of 62.2%. A total of 2.503 million individuals at a high risk of hepatitis C were screened, among whom 4 870 tested positive for HCV antibody and 3 858 underwent HCV RNA testing, resulting in a diagnostic rate of 79.2%, and 1 824 individuals with positive HCV RNA were identified, among whom 1 194 received antiviral therapy, with a treatment rate of 65.5%. In addition, 159 301 individuals with negative HBsAg and anti-HBs and an age of 20 — 40 years were inoculated with hepatitis B vaccine free of charge. Through the implementation of the project for the prevention and control of viral hepatitis, a large number of hepatitis patients have been identified, treated, and managed in the province within a short period of time, which significantly accelerates the efforts to eliminate the crisis of viral hepatitis.

Objective:To investigate the application effect of early emergency nursing teaching for eye battle injuries guided by the deep teaching concept.Methods:A total of 64 ophthalmic nurses who participated in early emergency nursing training for eye battle injuries were divided into control group with 26 nurses and observation group with 38 nurses. For the control group, list-based self-directed learning was used for theoretical teaching, and the traditional demonstration teaching method was used for the teaching of operational skills; for the observation group, the deep teaching concept was used for teaching design from the aspects of promoting understanding, inspiring reflection, and providing immersive experience, and it is also used to implement theoretical and practical teaching. The two groups were compared in terms of general information, theoretical scores, operational skill scores, and core competency scores before and after implementation. SPSS 22.0 was used for the t-test and the chi-square test. Results:There were no significant differences between the two groups in the general information including age, years of working in ophthalmology, education background, and professional title. Before implementation, there were no significant differences between the two groups in theoretical score, operational skill score, and core competency score, and compared with the control group after implementation, the observation group had significantly better theoretical score [(90.13±5.87) vs. (81.73±4.68), P<0.001] and scores of two operational skills [(95.63±2.81) vs. (87.31±4.51), P<0.001; (96.24±2.74) vs. (89.08±4.50), P <0.001]. Compared with the control group in terms of Competency Inventory for Registered Nurse, the observation group had significantly better scores of critical thinking [(34.00±1.93) vs. (30.58±3.01), P<0.001] and clinical nursing ability [(32.13±1.65) vs. (28.35±2.28), P<0.001]. Conclusions:The teaching method based on the deep teaching concept helps to enhance the knowledge, emergency skills, clinical reflection, and nursing abilities of ophthalmic nurses in the early emergency treatment of eye battle injuries and can improve the ideological awareness and training readiness of military clinical nurses.

Objective:
To identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of docetaxel combined with a fixed dose of cisplatin (75 mg/m 2 ) delivered as hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with ovarian cancer.
Methods:
In this phase I trial, a time-to-event Bayesian optimal interval design was used.Docetaxel was given at a starting dose of 60 mg/m2 and was increased in 5 mg/m2 increments until the MTD was determined or the maximum dose level of 75 mg/m2 was reached. The doselimiting toxicity (DLT) rate was set at 25%, with a total sample size of 30 patients. HIPEC was delivered immediately following debulking surgery at a target temperature of 43°C for 90 minutes.
Results:
From August 2022 to November 2022, 30 patients were enrolled. Among the patients who received a dose of docetaxel ≤65 mg/m2 , no DLT was reported. DLTs were observed in one patient who received 70 mg/m2 docetaxel (grade 3 anaemia) and in three patients who received 75 mg/m2 docetaxel (one case of grade 3 anaemia, one case of grade 3 hepatic impairment and one case of grade 4 thrombocytopenia). Patients treated with docetaxel 75 mg/m2 in combination with cisplatin 75 mg/m2 had an estimated DLT rate of 25%, which was the closest to the target DLT rate and was therefore chosen as the MTD.
Conclusion
Docetaxel, in combination with a fixed dose of cisplatin (75 mg/m2), can be used safely at intraperitoneal doses of 75 mg/m2 in ovarian cancer patients who received HIPEC (43°C, 90 minutes) following debulking surgery.
