Objective:To investigate the effects of rehabilitation nursing based on knowledge-action framework on compliance behavior and coping styles in patients with chronic respiratory failure (CRF), and provide scientific basis and practical guidance for clinical nursing of patients with CRF.Methods:A historical control study was conducted. A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of patients with CRF in Yiwu Central Hospital between January and April 2024. According to admission time, the patients were divided into the control group (admitted from January to February 2024, received routine rehabilitation nursing) and the study group (admitted from March to April 2024, received rehabilitation nursing based on knowledge-action framework). All patients were intervened for 1 month. The differences in self-care ability, compliance behavior, coping styles, quality of life between the two groups were compared using Exercise of Self-Care Agency Scale (ESCA), Compliance Behavior Questionnaire, Trait Coping Style Questionnaire (TCSQ), St. George′s Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ).Results:A total of 60 patients with CRF were included, 30 patients in the study group, with 16 males and 14 females, aged (68.72 ± 4.67) years old; 30 patients in the control group, with 17 males and 13 females, aged (69.21 ± 4.18) years old. Before intervention, there were no significant differences in ESCA score, TCSQ score and SGRQ score between the 2 groups (all P>0.05). After 1 month of intervention, ESCA score in the study group was (134.79 ± 5.62) points, higher than (125.34 ± 5.51) points in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( t=6.58, P<0.05). The compliance behavior (adherence to medical regimens, reasonable diet, work and rest, regular checking) in the study group were 30, 28, 27, 29 cases, higher than 25, 20, 20, 22 cases in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( χ2 values were 4.81-6.68, all P<0.05). The positive coping score of TCSQ in the study group was (39.67 ± 4.54) points, higher than (32.19 ± 4.38) points in the control group, and score of negative coping score was (13.55 ± 2.28) points, lower than (18.31 ± 2.43) points in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t=6.49, 7.82, both P<0.05). The SGRQ score in the study group was (30.23 ± 3.29) points, lower than (35.87 ± 3.66) points in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( t=6.28, P<0.05). Conclusions:For patients with CRF, rehabilitation nursing based on knowledge-action framework can effectively improve self-care ability and compliance behavior, form more positive coping styles, improve quality of life.

Objective To explore the effects and mechanisms of Sanzi Sijun Formula(SSF)in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)through network pharmacology,molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation;To carry out experimental validation in vivo and in vitro.Methods The active components and target genes of SSF were screened using TCMSP,TCMIP and TCMIO databases.NAFLD-related targets were screened using the GeneCards database,and the intersection targets were obtained to construct a protein-protein interaction network and screen for core targets.The intersection targets were imported into the DAVID database for GO and KEGG enrichment analysis.Molecular docking was performed using AutoDock Vina software between the key active components of SSF and core targets,and molecular dynamics simulations were conducted using Gromacs 2022 for 100 ns.C57BL/6J mice NAFLD model was established by diet induction.SSF was administered by gavage for 8 weeks.Liver histopathological changes and the levels of non-esterified fatty acids(NEFA)were detected.In vitro NAFLD model was established by inducing AML12 cells with palmitic acid(PA)for 24 hours.SSF-containing serum was added to incubate simultaneously.The lipid accumulation and cell viability were detected.The core targets of SSF intervention in the in vitro and in vivo NAFLD models were verified by RT-qPCR and Western blot.Results Network pharmacological analysis identified 75 active components in SSF and revealed 179 shared targets between these components and NAFLD.Ten main active components including arachidonate,12-senecioyl-2E,8E,10E-atractylodin,cerebrosterol,glycyrrhizol B and sinapic acid,etc.as well as 8 core targets were identified.GO enrichment analysis of targets mainly involved protein phosphorylation,inflammatory response,and apoptosis,while the KEGG enrichment analysis mainly included AGE-RAGE,TNF,AMPK,PPAR and NF-κB signaling pathways.Molecular docking demonstrated that the major active components of SSF exhibited favorable binding affinity and stability with the core targets.Molecular dynamics simulation confirmed the stability of the complex of glyasperin B with AKT1,SIRT1,STAT3,PPARG,and TNF.SSF alleviated the pathological damage of liver tissues in mice NAFLD model,reduced NAS score and NEFA levels in liver tissues(P<0.05).Additionally,SSF reversed lipid accumulation and decreased cell viability of PA-induced AML12 cells(P<0.01).Further in vivo and in vitro experiments demonstrated that SSF significantly reversed the elevated mRNA levels of TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β and PPARγ and protein expression of STAT3(P<0.05,P<0.01)in NAFLD models,up-regulated the protein levels of SIRT1 and p-Akt/Akt(P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion SSF can improve NAFLD of both in vitro and in vivo models.The regulation of multiple targets,such as AKT,SIRT1,STAT3 and PPARG,by its multiple active components,and adjustment of multiple approaches,such as lipid metabolism disorder,inflammatory responses,are involved in the potential underlying mechanisms.

OBJECTIVE To summarize the clinical characteristics and diagnosis and treatment experiences in dealing with non-severe Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia.METHODS The clinical data were collected from 34 patients who were diagnosed with non-severe C.psittaci pneumonia through quantitative polymerase chain reactiong(qPCR)for sputum in fever clinic of the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from Mar.2023 to Mar.2024 and were retrospectively analyzed.The clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes were evaluated.RESULTS The average age of the patients was(44.82±13.74)years old,the ratio of male to female was 1∶1.83;all of the patients had fever;major symptoms were cough(70.59％),pharyngodynia(44.12％),and flu-like symptoms(41.18％);82.35％of the patients had the history of contact with poultry.The C-reactive pro-tein(CRP)level,interleukin-6(IL-6),systemic inflammatory response index(SIRI)and aggregate index of sys-temic inflammation(AISI)were higher among the patients aged no less than 44 years old than among the patients less than 44 years old(P＜0.05);the percentage of lymphocytes of the patients aged no less than 44 years old was lower than that of the patients aged less than 44 years old(P＜0.05).As for the imaging findings,73.53％of the patients had consolidation shadows,26.47％had ground-glass opacities,and 32.35％involved both lungs.All of the patients received quinolones or tetracyclines for treatment of 7-14 days and all symptoms relieved.CT reexami-nated 1 month after the treatment showed that 55.88％of the cases had complete absorption of pulmonary infec-tious lesions,and 35.29％had partial absorption.CONCLUSIONS The patients with non-severe Chlamydia psitta-ci pneumonia are characterized by the history of contact with poultry,fever complicated with respiratory tract symptoms,rise of inflammatory markers(more significant among patients of advanced age)and lower lobe con-solidation shadow/ground-glass opacities.Early identification and standardized treatment may facilitate the favora-ble treatment outcomes.

AIM:To investigate the effects of semaglutide on inflammation and autophagy in hu-man AC16 cardiomyocytes under hypoxia/reoxy-genation conditions.METHODS:AC16 cells were randomly divided into four groups:control(CON),hypoxia/reoxygenation(H/R),hypoxia/reoxygen-ation+semaglutide(H/R+SEM),and hypoxia/reoxy-genation+semaglutide+3-MA(H/R+SEM+3-MA).All groups except CON underwent 8 hours of hypoxia followed by 12 hours of reoxygenation.Cell viabili-ty was measured by CCK-8.Levels of IL-1β and TNF-α were assessed by ELISA.Western blot analysis evaluated AMPK,p-AMPK,mTOR,p-mTOR,ULK1,p-ULK1,Beclin-1,and LC3.Autophagosomes were an-alyzed using laser confocal microscopy and trans-mission electron microscopy.The structure of au-tophagosome and autolysosome was observed by transmission electron microscopy.RESULTS:IL-1βand TNF-α levels increased significantly in the H/R group compared to CON(P＜0.01)but decreased in the H/R+SEM group(P＜0.01).In the H/R+SEM+3-MA group,inflammatory levels increased com-pared to the H/R+SEM(P＜0.05).Compared with the CON group,p-AMPK/AMPK and p-ULK1/ULK1 ratios increased significantly in the H/R group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The ratios further increased in the H/R+SEM group compared to H/R(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).But the two ratios decreased in the H/R+SEM+3-MA group compared to H/R+SEM(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).The pmTOR/mTOR had the opposite trend to the two previous ratios.The expression of Beclin1 and LC3 were significantly increased in group H/R com-pared to CON(P＜0.05),and which further in-creased in the H/R+SEM group compared to H/R(P＜0.01).But the two indicators decreased in the H/R+SEM+3-MA group compared to H/R+SEM(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).Laser confocal microscopy revealed increased autophagosome numbers in H/R group compared to CON(P＜0.05),and which further in-creased in the H/R+SEM group compared to H/R(P＜0.01).While the H/R+SEM+3-MA group showed a decrease compared to H/R+SEM(P＜0.05).CON-CLUSION:Semaglutide may moderate regulate au-tophagy through AMPK/mTOR/ULK1 pathway,re-duce the release of inflammatory factors,and alle-viate hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced inflammatory injury.

Objective To synthesize high-quality synthetic CT (sCT) images from cone beam CT (CBCT) by learning lung CT domain image features with a deep learning algorithm. Methods A sCT generation algorithm which employs perceptual loss-based cyclic generative adversarial network model (CycleGAN) and iterative registration was presented. CycleGAN model was trained to generate high-quality sCT images by combining perceptual loss and cycle consistency loss;and Elastix was used to register the generated sCT image and the planned CT (pCT) image,and iterate CycleGAN generator model. Results Experiments were conducted on the obtained pCT and CBCT data of 70 patients with lung tumors. From a quantitative perspective,the SSIM between sCT generated by the proposed algorithm and pCT was improved by 11.9％ as compared with that between CBCT and pCT,increasing from 0.825 to 0.923;additionally,RMSE dropped from 110.97 HU to 78.62 HU,PSNR increased from 32.21 dB to 34.74 dB,and mutual information increased from 1.187 to 1.418. The visual evaluation revealed that the proposed algorithm greatly eliminated the scattering artifacts of CBCT slices,highlighted the bone structure,and repaired the soft tissue structure. The comparisons with U-CycleGAN,R-CycleGAN and CUT models confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. Conclusion Using the proposed algorithm for sCT images generation can effectively reduce the dose error and structural error between CBCT and pCT,making it possible to apply the proposed algorithm to accurate dose calculations and assist doctors in clinical diagnosis.

Objective To understand the economic losses due to healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in patients after Da Vinci robotic thoracic surgery,and provide basis for preventing and controlling HAI after robotic surgery.Methods Patients who underwent Da Vinci robotic surgery from April 2019 to April 2023 were retrospective stu-died.Patients were divided into HAI group and non-HAI group based on the occurrence of postoperative infection.Through 1∶1 propensity score matching(PSM),31 cases were included in each group,economic losses of two groups of patients were compared.Results A total of 921 patients who underwent Da Vinci robotic thoracic surgery were included in the study,51 cases with HAI(HAI group)and 870 without HAI(non-HAI group).After 1∶1 PSM,31 cases were included in each group.Four covariates were compared between two groups of patients before PSM,namely gender,age,comorbidities,and the American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA)grading,all with statistically significant differences(all P＜0.05).After PSM,distribution of the above covariates reached equilib-rium between the two groups(both P＞0.05).The median total expense for HAI group before PSM during hospi-talization was 88 711.72 Yuan,while 78 509.46 Yuan for the non-HAI group.The direct economic losses caused by HAI after Da Vinci robot surgery was 10 202.26 Yuan,mainly increased by expense of medicine,nursing,laborato-ry diagnosis,etc.Difference in western medicine expense was the highest(8 839.12 Yuan),out of which expense of antimicrobial agents accounted for the highest proportion(73.55％).Difference in daily hospitalization expense between HAI-group and non-HAI group was 502.38 Yuan.Length of hospital stay of patients in HAI group and non-HAI group were(21.59±10.62)and(13.92±9.21)days,respectively,with statistical differences(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The occurrence of HAI in patients undergoing Da Vinci robotic thoracic surgery leads to direct economic losses,with obvious increases in expenses of nursing,laboratory diagnosis,western medicine(mainly an-timicrobial agents).Length of hospital stay of patients also prolongs.

Objective:To investigate the methods and skills required for the safe and swift removal of primary or secondary sacral tumors located between the second (inclusive) and fourth sacral vertebrae.Methods:The clinical images, pathology reports, surgical procedures, operation durations, intraoperative bleeding volumes, and postoperative functional follow-up data of 26 patients undergoing sacral tumor resection at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps Hospital between May 2020 and February 2025 were retrospectively examined. Additionally, the safety measures for sacral tumor resection and techniques for expedited specimen removal were evaluated.Results:According to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings, all 26 patients presented with sacral tumors located between the second (inclusive) and fourth sacral vertebrae. Specifically, 9 patients were diagnosed with primary sacral tumors, pathologically confirmed as chordomas, while 17 patients had secondary sacral tumors. Among the secondary tumor cases, 12 were attributed to recurrent rectal cancer invading the sacrum, and 5 were due to malignant teratomas invading the sacrum. The 26 patients underwent a treatment strategy that began with managing the relationship between the internal iliac artery, vein branches, and the tumor, followed by the resection of the sacrum. During surgery, the bilateral sciatic foramina were accurately positioned, and the presacral fascia was dissected subsequent to the fracture of the sacrum. Among the 26 patients, 9 underwent sacral tumor resection directly through the posterior sacral approach. The average operation time for these patients was (71.1±4.9) minutes, with average blood loss of (186.7±72.8) milliliters. On the other hand, 17 patients underwent sacral tumor resection by transitioning from the supine position to the prone knife position through a combined abdominal and sacral approach. The average operation time for this group was (213.5±19.3) minutes, with average blood loss of (480.0±93.0) milliliters, significantly longer than that of the posterior sacral approach. The follow-up period ranged from 1 to 48 months, with a median of 20 months, ending on March 31, 2025. During this time, 26 patients achieved autonomous defecation with the aid of medication. None of the patients reported any functional movement disorders or pain in their lower limbs. It was observed that two out of the 26 patients developed distant metastasis, while the remaining 24 patients survived without any tumors.Conclusion:By pretreated the relationship between the internal iliac vessels and sacral tumors prior to resecting sacral tumors, utilizing the approach of initially fracturing the sacrum followed by rupturing the presacral fascia, the tumor can be entirely eliminated, resulting in a brief surgical procedure, reduced intraoperative bleeding, and minimal postoperative complications.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of nebulized inhalation of recombinant human interferon (IFN) α1b injection in the treatment of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) associated lower respiratory tract infections (pneumonia and bronchiolitis) in children.Methods:A randomized, double-blind, parallel, placebo-controlled add-on design was used.Children with pneumonia or bronchiolitis aged 2 months to 5 years who tested positive for RSV antigen within 72 hours of onset from 30 clinical trial sites including Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University between February 2021 and December 2022 were included in this study and randomly divided into 2 groups at a ratio of 1∶1 based on a stratified-block method.Both groups received basic treatments such as cough control, asthma relieving, expectorant treatment, fever reduction, oxygen therapy, etc.The experimental group received additional nebulized inhalation of IFN α1b injection at a dose of 2.0 μg/(kg·time), twice a day.The control group received nebulized inhalation of placebo twice a day.Clinical efficacy was evaluated based on indicators such as the duration of clinical symptoms and signs, and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the median and 95% CI of the duration of clinical symptoms and signs.The Log-rank test was used to compared data between groups.Safety was assessed through the incidence of adverse reactions and laboratory tests, and the Chi-square test was used to analyze the difference between groups. Results:There were 123 children in the experimental group and 122 children in the control group.The median durations of all the 5 clinical symptoms and signs [including shortness of breath, wheezing, dyspnea (visible retractions), decreased transcutaneous oxygen saturation, and abnormal mental state] in the experimental group after treatment were slightly shortened than those in the control group [2.7 d(95% CI: 1.9-3.0 d)] vs.[2.9 d(95% CI: 2.6-3.6 d), P=0.027].The improvement in dyspnea (retractions) was especially pronounced in the experimental group, with a relief rate of 50.0% (0, 100%) on the first day of administration[compared with 0 (0, 50.0%) in the control group ( Z=2.002, P=0.025)].The median duration of dyspnea in the experimental group was nearly 1 day shorter than that in the control group [1.0 d(95% CI: 0.7-1.7 d) vs.1.8 d(95% CI: 1.0-2.5 d), P=0.046].There were no significant difference in hospital stay [6.0(5.0, 8.0) d vs.6.5(5.0, 8.0) d, Z=0.675, P=0.500], oxygen therapy duration [32.0(14.0, 96.3) h vs.39.0 (24.0, 83.2) h, Z=0.094, P=0.925], the recovery rate from clinical symptoms during treatment [(105/106, 99.1%) vs.(96/101, 95.0%)], and recurrence rate [(0/106, 0) vs.(2/101, 2.0%)] between the 2 groups (all P>0.05).However, the above-mentioned four indicators in the experimental group showed a trend of clinical benefits.The quantitative virus detection results showed that the RSV viral load in both groups decreased after treatment compared to before treatment.After 2 days of treatment, the decline rate of RSV viral load from the baseline was 0.90 lg copies/(mL·d) in the experimental group and 0.25 lg copies/(mL·d)in the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05).Furthermore, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the 2 groups ( P>0.05).Importantly, no drug-related serious adverse reactions occurred in both groups. Conclusions:The nebulized inhalation therapy of IFN α1b demonstrates efficacy and safety in treating pediatric RSV associated lower respiratory tract infections.It particularly offers outstanding clinical therapeutic value for severe children.
