Objective:By combining image memory with educational games, electrocardiogram (ECG) images were integrated with card games to simplify complex ECG knowledge and visualize abstract concepts. This approach stimulated students' motivation to learn within the game, thereby enhancing their cognitive abilities and aiding them in mastering ECG-related knowledge.Methods:Through literature search and brainstorming, ECG learning flash cards and game process were designed. Using the convenience sampling method, 55 medical students from a university were selected to conduct the self-designed questionnaire before and after using ECG flash cards to evaluate the efficacy of flash cards in enhancing ECG learning outcomes. A descriptive qualitative study was conducted on the satisfaction with the flash cards.Results:Before the intervention, there was no significant difference in the score of students from different majors. For students who had studied ECG within 1 month and 6 months, the difference in correct recognition rate between them was relatively small, which were 57.50% and 54.51%, respectively. For students who had not studied ECG, the correct recognition rate after training was only 18.06%. After the intervention, 42 valid questionnaires were collected. The overall correct rate of ECG recognition increased by 17.86%. The correct recognition rate of ventricular fibrillation increased significantly from 30.91% to 64.29%; the correct recognition rate of supraventricular tachycardia was improved only by 5.50%. The correct ECG recognition rate was significantly higher after the intervention than before the intervention ( P<0.01). The results of qualitative interviews indicated that the ECG game cards were interesting, practical, and generalizable. However, there was room for improvement in the distinctiveness of key graphics, the richness of information on cards, and the diversity of rule design. Conclusions:ECG recognition is hard to master for beginners. The use of ECG flash cards simplifies the process of ECG recognition and stimulates students' initiative in learning, thus improving the overall correct ECG recognition rate.

From August to October 2021, a self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate nursing adverse events in hemodialysis centers of 860 class-A tertiary hospitals during 2020 in China. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of blood loss, hemodialysis catheter-related blood stream infection (CRBSI) and venous needle dislodgement (VND) in hemodialysis centers.Results:A total of 826 valid questionnaires were received, with an effective response rate of 96.05%(826/860). There were 826 hemodialysis centers covering 31 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions in China. The establishment period of each center was 24(18, 30) years. There were 45(30, 62) dialysis machines, 180(110, 260) patients and 19(13, 27) registered nurses. Blood loss, hemodialysis CRBSI and VND occurred in 70.94% (586/826), 68.04%(562/826) and 46.97% (388/826) of hemodialysis centers, respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression results showed that the daily treatment shift ( OR=0.730, 95% CI 0.536-0.994), the proportion of nurses with bachelor's degree or above ( OR=1.635, 95% CI 1.142-2.342), and whether nurses worked part-time on peritoneal dialysis treatment ( OR=0.225, 95% CI 0.052-0.965) were the influencing factors for blood loss in hemodialysis centers (all P<0.05). The daily treatment shift ( OR=0.566, 95% CI 0.413-0.777), the number of patients which each nurse was responsible for per shift simultaneously ( OR=0.549, 95% CI 0.400-0.753), proportion of blood purification specialized nurses ( OR=1.661, 95% CI 1.216-2.269), whether nurses worked part-time on CRRT ( OR=0.700, 95% CI 0.511-0.957), the education level of the nursing manager was junior college and below ( OR=3.789, 95% CI 1.576-9.113) and bachelor′s degree ( OR=2.585, 95% CI 1.328-5.033) were the influencing factors for the hemodialysis catheter-associated bloodstream infection in hemodialysis centers (all P<0.05). The number of patients which each nurse ( OR=0.580, 95% CI 0.433-0.777) was responsible for per shift simultaneously was the influencing factor in the occurrence of VND in hemodialysis centers ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The nursing adverse events of blood loss, hemodialysis catheter-associated bloodstream infection and VND were relatively common in hemodialysis centers. The hospital managers should take corresponding measures aiming at the above influencing factors to prevent the occurrence of nursing adverse events and improve the quality and safety of nursing.

Danggui Buxue decoction(DBD)is a classic prescription with immunomodulatory and hematopoietic effects.Previous studies have shown the DBD has potential to be used as an oral im-mune booster.However,its immunomodulatory effects and mechanism of action have not been thoroughly studied,especially the protective mechanism of immunomodulatory regulation in the state of immunosuppressive is still unclear.The aim of this study was to explore the protective mechanism of DBD in the immunosuppressive state using network pharmacology combined with animal experiments verification.The active components,core targets and signaling pathways of DBD in treating immunosuppression were obtained using network pharmacology tools.On this ba-sis,the active components of DBD were identified using HPLC-MS,and in vivo studies were con-ducted at the same time.The key active components of DBD obtained using network pharmacology included quercetin,kaempferol and formononetin.The core targets included TP53,RELA,TNF,AKT1,and IL-6.KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)-protein kinase B(AKT)may play an important role in the treatment of immunosuppres-sive diseases using DBD.Molecular docking confirmed that each core target had good binding activ-ity with its corresponding compounds.Animal experiments showed that after DBD intervention,the mRNA gene and protein expression of RELA,TNF,and IL-6 in the serum was significantly down-regulated.The mRNA expression of PI3K and AKT in the ileum and PI3K protein expression were also downregulated.In conclusion,DBD exerts its role in treating immunosuppressive diseases by regulating the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway.
