BackgroundAs a high prevalence disorder， schizophrenia has caused significant burden to family and society due to the impairment of occupational and social function. Currently， the dominant vocational training model in China follows a paternalistic， clinician-led decision-making approach. Although it improves patients' social function to some extent， it undermines their autonomy and treatment adherence. Therefore， it is urgently necessary to explore a new intervention method to enhance treatment compliance and social function in patients. ObjectiveTo explore the impact of shared decision-making oriented vocational training on social function in hospitalized schizophrenia patients， so as to provide references for rehabilitation interventions. MethodsA total of 68 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia according to the International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10） criteria were consecutively enrolled from January to June 2024 at The Third People's Hospital of Wenjiang Distric， Chengdu. Participants were randomly allocated into the research group （n=34） and the control group （n=34） using a random number table method. Both groups received routine rehabilitation training， while the research group received shared decision-making oriented vocational training for 12 weeks， 2 times a week for 2 hours each time. Before and at the 4^th and 12^th week of intervention， two groups were evaluated by General Self-Efficacy Scale （GSES）， Stigma Scale for Mental Illness （SSMI）， Scale of Social function of Psychosis Inpatients （SSFPI） and Inpatient Psychiatric Rehabilitation Outcome Scale （IPROS）. ResultsA total of 63 participants completed the study， with 30 cases in the research group and 33 cases in the control group. Repeated measures ANOVA revealed statistically significant time effects and interaction effects in both groups for GSES， SSMI， SSFPI and IPROS scores （F=20.451， 16.022； 26.193， 12.944； 23.957， 5.023； 11.776， 3.985， P<0.05 or 0.01）， while no significant group effects were observed （F=0.188， 0.742， 1.878， 0.474， P>0.05）. At the 12^th week of intervention， there were statistically significant differences in GSES， SSMI， SSFPI and IPROS scores between the two groups. ConclusionShared decision-making oriented vocational training may help to improve social function in patients with schizophrenia. ［Funded by 2023 Chengdu Medical Research Project （number， 2023468）］

Cardiovascular diseases that develop from hypercholesterolemia-induced atherosclerosis have emerged as a significant threat to human health.Recently,probiotics exhibiting cholesterol-lowering properties have emerged as a prominent area of research.Numerous studies have demonstrated that Lactobacillus reuteri can effectively reduce endogenous cholesterol synthesis,regulate cholesterol transport,and promote cholesterol degradation by modulating the expression of key genes,such as sterol-regulatory element binding protein 2,3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl coenzyme A reductase,and cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase,in both the liver and intestinal epithelial cells of the host.This leads to a notable decrease in total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in the host serum.The present paper offers a comprehensive overview of the underlying mechanisms responsible for the cholesterol-lowering effects exerted by L.reuteri,aiming to provide valuable insights into the treatment of hypercholesterolemia and the development of probiotics with cholesterol-lowering properties.

Objective To explore the longitudinal changes of symptoms after discharge in patients with daytime lung cancer surgery by factor analysis,in order to strengthen nursing countermeasures and improve the quality of life of patients.Methods Patients who underwent day surgery in the thoracic surgery department of a tertiary general hospital in Zhejiang Province from October 2023 to January 2024 were selected using convenience sampling.On the 1st,3rd,14th and 30th day after discharge,the general information questionnaire and the postoperative symptom inventory for patients with lung cancer were used for investigation.Exploratory factor analysis was performed to extract the symptom clusters.Results A total of 227 patients were followed up in this study,including 19 shed cases and 2 excluded cases,and 206 patients were finally included.The percentage of the 9 major symptoms of patients with daytime lung cancer surgery after discharge showed dynamic changes.The highest percentage symptom on the 1st day after discharge was pain in 197 cases(95.63％).The highest percentage on the 30th day after discharge was cough in 129 cases(62.62％).The results of exploratory factor analysis were P＜0.001 and KMO＞0.500 for Bartlett's test of sphericity on days 1,3,and 14 after discharge,except for P=0.874 and KMO=0.495 on day 30,with digestive and respiratory symptom clusters on day 1;respiratory,digestive,and fatigue symptom clusters on day 3;fatigue and respiratory symptom clusters on day 14.Conclusion The single symptom and symptom clusters of patients with daytime lung cancer surgery after discharge showed dynamic changes at different time points.Therefore,in clinical work,targeted intervention strategies should be adopted,and precise symptom management should be implemented according to the characteristics of symptom clusters in different periods of discharge of patients undergoing daytime lung cancer surgery,so as to reduce the symptom burden of patients.

ObjectiveTo identify high-risk factors and high-risk process of nosocomial infection， and then take targeted prevention and control measures to improve nosocomial infection management. MethodsWe identified and determined the risk factors associated with nosocomial infection by using an expert brainstorming method， and then conducted risk assessment of the factors in the outcomes and process by using a semi-quantitative method. ResultsA total of 31 experts participated in the risk factor assessment. Risk assessment scores showed that nosocomial infection due to multi-drug resistant bacteria was the highest risk in the outcomes of nosocomial infection. Lack of isolation for airborne/droplet transmission， needle/sharp instrument injury， inadequate identification of infection risk and response measures in construction engineering， and insufficient implementation of infection control system were extremely high risk factors in the process of nosocomial infection. ConclusionPrevention and control should be strengthened on multi-drug resistant bacteria and catheter-related infections. The role of multidisciplinary team （MDT） in the prevention and control of nosocomial infection should be enhanced in medical practice. Risk assessment may facilitate the resource allocation and improve hand hygiene behavior.

COVID-19 pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread across the globe, posing an enormous threat to public health and safety. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), in combination with Western medicine (WM), has made important and lasting contributions in the battle against COVID-19. In this review, updated clinical effects and potential mechanisms of TCM, presented in newly recognized three distinct phases of the disease, are summarized and discussed. By integrating the available clinical and preclinical evidence, the efficacies and underlying mechanisms of TCM on COVID-19, including the highly recommended three Chinese patent medicines and three Chinese medicine formulas, are described in a panorama. We hope that this comprehensive review not only provides a reference for health care professionals and the public to recognize the significant contributions of TCM for COVID-19, but also serves as an evidence-based in-depth summary and analysis to facilitate understanding the true scientific value of TCM.

ObjectiveTo investigate related factors for stone recurrence after endoscopic minimally invasive gallbladder-preserving cholecystolithotomy, and to establish a nomogram model for predicting the risk of stone recurrence after surgery based on independent risk factors. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 144 patients with gallstones who underwent endoscopic minimally invasive gallbladder-preserving cholecystolithotomy in Qinghai University Affiliated Hospital from January 2012 to January 2018, and according to postoperative stone recurrence, the patients were divided into non-recurrence group and recurrence group. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. LASSO and logistic regression analyses were used to analyze independent risk factors for postoperative stone recurrence, and the corresponding nomogram prediction model was plotted according to regression coefficient. The calibration curve was plotted to evaluate the reliability of the predictive nomogram; Harrell consistency index was used to quantify the discriminatory performance of the predictive nomogram; the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the sensitivity, specificity, and area under the ROC curve (AUC) of this predictive nomogram. ResultsAll 144 patients underwent successful endoscopic minimally invasive gallbladder-preserving cholecystolithotomy, among whom 14 patients (9.7%) experienced stone recurrence after surgery. The multivariate analysis showed that family history (odds ratio ［OR］= 3.245, 95% confidence interval ［CI］: 0.752-13567, P=0.104), regular diet (OR=3.752, 95% CI: 1.067-14.141, P=0.041), stone homogeneity (OR=5.871, 95% CI: 1636-25.390, P=0.010), and medication compliance (OR=0.225, 95% CI: 0.057-0.799, P=0.024) were independent risk factors for recurrence. The nomogram model had an index of concordance (C-index) of 0.835 (95% CI: 0.732-0.938) in the modeling sample and 0.7925 in the verification sample, suggesting that the nomogram model in this study had good accuracy and discrimination. The predictive nomogram had an AUC of 0.835, suggesting that this nomogram had a relatively high predictive value. ConclusionFamily history, regular diet, stone homogeneity, and medication compliance are independent risk factors for stone recurrence after endoscopic minimally invasive gallbladder-preserving cholecystolithotomy, and the nomogram constructed based on these independent risk factors may help to predict the risk of postoperative stone recurrence.
