Objective:To summarize the best available evidence for exercise interventions in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) .Methods:The PIPOST model from the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Centre for Evidence-Based Healthcare in Australia was used to construct the evidence-based nursing question. A top-down approach based on the "6S" evidence pyramid model was employed to search for relevant evidence, including clinical guidelines, consensus statements, systematic reviews, best practices, and evidence summaries. The search was conducted across BMJ Best Practice, UpToDate, guideline repositories, professional association websites, and Chinese and international databases. Eligible literature was screened for quality assessment, and high-quality evidence was extracted. The search timeframe covered publications from database inception to June 15, 2024.Results:A total of 15 studies were included, comprising 1 clinical decision-making article, 3 guidelines, 6 systematic reviews, and 5 randomized controlled trials. A total of 25 evidence statements were synthesized across 6 key aspects: exercise principles, exercise assessment, exercise modalities, exercise intensity, exercise frequency and duration, and exercise monitoring.Conclusions:The best evidence summarized in this study provides a valuable reference for clinical healthcare professionals implementing exercise interventions for patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.

BACKGROUND: Death burden of stroke is severe with over one-third rural residents in China, but there is still a lack of specific national and high-quality reports on the urban-rural differences in stroke burden, especially for subtypes. We aimed to update the understanding of urban-rural differences in stroke deaths. METHODS: This is a descriptive observational study. Data from the national mortality surveillance system, which covers 323.8 million with 605 disease surveillance points (DSPs) across all 31 provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions in China. All deaths from stroke as the underlying cause from 2015 to 2020 according to DSPs. Crude mortality rate and age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) were estimated through DSPs. Average annual percentage change was used to explain the change in mortality rate. RESULTS: From 2015 to 2020, the majority of deaths from all stroke subtypes occurred in rural areas. There were significant differences between the changes of urban and rural ASMRs. On the whole, the changes in urban areas were evidently better, and the ASMR differences were basically expanding. Stroke ASMR in urban China decreased by 15.5%. The rural ASMR of ischemic stroke increased by 12.9%. The rural and urban ASMRs of intracerebral hemorrhage decreased by 24.9% and 27.4%, and those of subarachnoid hemorrhage decreased by 29.5% and 40.4%, respectively. The highest ASMRs of all stroke subtypes and the increasing trend of ischemic stroke ASMR make rural males the focus of stroke management. CONCLUSIONS The death burden of stroke varies greatly between urban and rural China. Rural residents face unique challenges.

Objectives:To investigate the application value of laparoscopic double stapler firings and double stapling technique combined with rectal eversion and total extra-abdominal resection (LDER) in the anal preservation treatment of low rectal cancer.Methods:Inclusion criteria: (1) age was 18-70; (2) the distance of the lower tumor edge from the anal verge was 4-5 cm; (3) primary tumor with a diameter ≤3 cm; (4) preoperative staging of T1~2N1~2M0; (5) "difficult pelvis", defined as ischial tuberosity diameter<10 cm or body mass index>25 kg/m 2; (6) patients with strong intention for sphincter preservation; (7) no preoperative treatment (e.g., chemotherapy, radiotherapy, molecular targeted therapy, or immunotherapy); (8) no lateral lymph node enlargement; (9) no previous anorectal surgery; (10) patients with good basic condition who could tolerate surgery. Exclusion criteria: (1) previously suffered from malignant tumors of the digestive tract or currently suffering from malignant tumors out of the digestive tract; (2) patients with preoperative anal dysfunction (Wexner score ≥ 10), or fecal incontinence. The specific surgical steps are as follows: the distal end of the rectum was dissected to the level of the interspace between internal and external sphincters of anal canal. Five centimeters proximal to the tumor, the mesorectum was ligated, and a liner stapler was used to transect the rectum. The distal rectum with the tumor were then everted and extracted through the anus. The rectum was transected 0.5-1.0 cm distal to the tumor with a linear stapler. Full thickness suture was used to reinforce the stump of the rectum, which was then brought back into the pelvic cavity. Finally, an end-to-end anastomosis between the colon and the rectum was performed. A retrospective descriptive study was performed of the clinical and pathological data of 12 patients with T1-T2 stage low rectal cancer treated with LDER at Henan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2020 to December 2022. Results:All 12 patients successfully completed LDER with sphincter preservation, without conversion to open surgery or changes in surgical approach. The median surgical time was 272 (155-320) minutes, with a median bleeding volume of 100 (50-200) mL. No protective stoma was performed, and all patients received R0 resection. The average hospital stay was 9 (7-15) days. There were no postoperative anastomotic leakage or perioperative deaths. All 12 patients received postoperative follow-up, with a median follow-up of 12 months (6-36 months) and a Wexner score of 8 (5-14) at 6 months postoperatively. There was no tumor recurrence or metastasis during the follow-up period.Conclusions:LDER is safe and effective for the treatment of low rectal cancer.

Objective:To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine on the intraoperative and early postoperative complications of patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. The clinical data of 399 patients who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2016 to September 2020 were retrospectively collected. There were 319 males and 80 females, aged (50.9±10.2) years (range: 10 to 73 years). These patients were divided into the control group (369 cases) and the dexmedetomidine group (30 cases) according to whether dexmedetomidine was continuously pumped intravenously during the operation until the operation ended. The 1∶2 propensity score matching was used to match the preoperative and intraoperative conditions of the two groups of patients, and the caliper width was 0.2. Outcome indicators included intraoperative postreperfusion syndrome, acute kidney injury and pulmonary complications within 7 days after surgery, length of hospital stay, time of stay in ICU, duration of assisted mechanical ventilation, rate of reintubation, 6-month and 1-year survival and recurrence-free survival rate after surgery. The independent sample t test, χ2 test, Mann-Whitney U test or Fisher exact test was used to statistically analyze the data of the two groups of patients, respectively. Survival curves of overall survival and disease-free-survival were plotted by Kaplan-Meier method, and the survival rate and recurrence-free survival rate were compared by Log-rank test. Results:A total of 78 patients were included after propensity score matching, including 26 in the dexmedetomidine group and 52 in the control group. The incidence of acute kidney injury in the dexmedetomidine group within 7 days after surgery was 0 (0/26), significantly lower than that of the control group (21.2%,11/52)(corrected χ2=4.776, P=0.029). There were no significant differences in the incidence of intraoperative postreperfusion syndrome and pulmonary complications within 7 days after surgery, length of hospital stay, ICU time, the duration of assisted mechanical ventilation, rate of reintubation, 6-month and 1-year survival, and recurrence-free survival rate after surgery between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Continuous infusion of dexmedetomidine via intravenous pump during operation may be beneficial in reducing the incidence of acute kidney injury within 7 days after orthotopic liver transplantation.

BACKGROUND:Traditional scoliosis orthosis has some disadvantages,such as complex manufacturing process,long processing cycle,poor fit and so on.Three-dimensional printed scoliosis orthosis has the advantages of high manufacturing precision and personalization. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the efficacy of three-dimensional printed scoliosis orthosis for scoliosis based on multi-criteria decision model. METHODS:Clinical data of 72 patients with scoliosis admitted to Chen Xinghai Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from January 2019 to October 2022 were retrospectively collected and divided into two groups according to the treatment of orthosis.Study group(n=23)received three-dimensional printed scoliosis orthosis.Traditional group(n=49)received the traditional polypropylene spine brace treatment.The clinical efficacy and complications were compared between the two groups.A multi-criteria decision model for the treatment of scoliosis with three-dimensional printed scoliosis orthosis was established,and the stability of the benefit value,risk value and decision model of the two groups were evaluated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the traditional group,there were significant differences in the top vertebral offset distance,Cobb angle,top vertebral rotation,Functional Movement Screen score,visual analog scale score and total effective rate in the study group at 6 months after surgery(P<0.05).(2)Among the benefit indexes,Cobb angle had the greatest impact on the condition of patients,while the risk indexes had the greatest impact on dyspnea.(3)The benefit values of the study group and the traditional group for scoliosis were 79 and 64,and the risk values were 74 and 57,respectively.The combined benefit and risk values found that the benefit-risk value of the study group was 16 higher than that of the traditional group.(4)In the range of 0-100%relative risk weight,the benefit-risk value of the study group was always higher than that of the traditional group,which proved that the multi-criteria decision-making model had good stability.(5)It is indicated that three-dimensional printed scoliosis orthosis can better restore the physiological curvature of scoliosis and improve the efficiency of treatment.

Objective: To compare the effectiveness of blonanserin and olanzapine in the treatment of first-episode schizophrenia, so as to provide the basis for the medication choice for the treatment of first-episode schizophrenia. Methods: A total of 98 patients with first-episode schizophrenia admitted to the Second People's Hospital of Taizhou City were selected and randomly divided into the olanzapine group and the blonanserin group for a treatment period of two months. The Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB) were used to investigate the improvement of symptoms, sleep quality and cognitive function before and after treatment, respectively, and the level of prolactin was detected. The generalized estimation equation was used to compare the differences between the two groups. The adverse reactions of the two groups were recorded and the safety of medication was evaluated. Results: Forty-nine patients each group were included, with 29 males and a mean age of (37.22±7.17) years in the olanzapine group, and 27 males and a mean age of (37.54±7.31) years in the blonanserin group. There were no significant differences in gender, age, disease course and educational duration between the two groups (all P>0.05). The scores of positive symptom, negative symptom, general psychopathology and overall PANSS in the two groups after treatment were decreased compared with those before (all P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups, and no interaction between the drugs and treatment duration (all P>0.05). The MCCB score of the blonanserin group was higher than that of the olanzapine group, while the PSQI score and the prolactin level of the blonanserin group were lower than that of the olanzapine group, and there was an interaction between the drugs and treatment duration (all P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the blonanserin group was 6.12%, which was lower than that in the olanzapine group of 20.41% (P<0.05). Conclusion Either blonanserin or olanzapine can improve psychotic symptoms inpatients with first-episode schizophrenia, while blonanserin is more effective than olanzapine in improving sleep quality, cognitive function and reducing prolactin level, and has higher safety.

Objective:To investigate the expression of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A2B1 (HNRNPA2B1) in human esophageal cancer tissues and its clinical significance.Methods:Single-cell data for esophageal cancer were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database (GSE160269 dataset, last updated on November 29, 2020) to analyze the expression of HNRNPA2B1. Transcriptional sequencing data for esophageal cancer from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, including the fragments per kilobase of transcript per million mapped reads (FPKM) quantitative data (173 samples, consisting of 162 esophageal cancer tissues and 11 adjacent normal tissues), and survival data in the phenotype category were downloaded. Analysis of FPKM quantitative data from the TCGA database for esophageal cancer was performed. The top 250 genes most correlated with HNRNPA2B1 were selected and the R4.3.0 clusterProfiler package was used to conduct Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses on the selected gene set. FPKM quantitative data from the TCGA database for esophageal cancer were imported into the CIBERSORTx website to obtain immune cell abundance scores, and the correlation between HNRNPA2B1 and the degree of immune cell infiltration was analyzed. The clinicopathological data of patients from esophageal cancer tissue microarrays including 114 cases of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma tissues and 66 cases of adjacent normal tissues were collected. The patients underwent surgery from January 2006 to December 2008, and the follow-up period extended until July 2015. Cytokeratin (CK) and HNRNPA2B1 expression in esophageal cancer tissue microarrays were detected by using multi-color immunohistochemical (mIHC) staining, and multispectral tissue imaging was conducted. The R4.3.0 survival package and survminer package in TCGA database were used to calculate the optimal cut-off value of HNRNPA2B1 expression and the proportion of CK + HNRNPA2B1 + cells in tissue microarrays was used to calculate the cut-off value of HNRNPA2B1 expression based on which patients were categorized into high and low expression groups. The overall survival (OS) of both groups was compared and the factors influencing OS were analyzed by using the Cox proportional hazards model. Results:In the GSE160269 dataset of single-cell data for esophageal cancer, the expression level of HNRNPA2B1 in tumor epithelial cells was higher than that in normal epithelial cells, and HNRNPA2B1 was highly expressed in various immune cell subtypes. The high expression level of HNRNPA2B1 was positively correlated with regulatory T cells, naive B cells and memory CD4 + T cells. GO enrichment analysis revealed that HNRNPA2B1 was primarily involved in the biological process of nuclear division, cellular components were mainly enriched in chromosomal regions, and molecular functions were mainly enriched in ATP hydrolysis activity. KEGG enrichment analysis indicated that HNRNPA2B1 was primarily involved in biological processes such as the cell cycle, spliceosome, and DNA replication. Results from mIHC and multispectral tissue imaging demonstrated that CK was predominantly expressed in the cell membranes of tumor cells and normal esophageal epithelial cells, while HNRNPA2B1 was primarily expressed in the nuclei of tumor cells and normal esophageal cells. The expression level of HNRNPA2B1 in esophageal cancer tissues was higher than that in the normal paracancerous tissues ( U = 2 984.00, P < 0.05). Results of tissue microarrays and the survival analysis on the data in the TCGA database indicated that esophageal cancer patients with low HNRNPA2B1 expression had a better OS compared to those with high expression (both P < 0.05). Cox multivariate regression analysis revealed that age ( HR = 1.919, 95% CI: 1.158-3.182, P = 0.011), TNM stage ( HR = 2.404, 95% CI: 1.374-4.207, P = 0.002), T stage ( HR = 2.349, 95% CI: 1.150-4.789, P = 0.019), and the expression of HNRNPA2B1 in tumor epithelial cells ( HR = 2.160, 95% CI: 1.280-3.647, P = 0.004) were independent factors influencing OS in esophageal cancer patients. Conclusions:The high expression of HNRNPA2B1 protein in esophageal cancer tissues may play a role in the developement and progression of esophageal cancer, serving as a crucial biological indicator for prognostic assessment of esophageal cancer.
