Objective:To investigate the application effects of a two-way six-step nursing teaching model based on the Kolb's learning cycle in the teaching of nurse interns in an emergency department.Methods:We assigned 52 undergraduate nursing students interning at the department of emergency from February 2020 to February 2022 to receive conventional teaching (control group) and 50 nurse interns from March 2022 to February 2023 to receive two-way six-step nursing teaching based on the Kolb's model (observation group). We evaluated the changes in core competencies before and after learning using the Competency Inventory for Registered Nurses (CIRN); assessed self-learning abilities using a nursing student self-learning ability assessment scale; recorded the incidence rates of related errors in the emergency department after learning; and assessed the level of satisfaction with nursing using the Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire (PSQ-18). SPSS 22.0 was used to perform the chi-square test and t-test. Results:After learning, the scores of CIRN dimensions and self-learning ability dimensions were all increased in both groups, and these scores were significantly higher in the observation group [(31.78±2.34), (50.22±4.33), (28.56±2.09), (19.22±3.11), (22.34±2.78); (30.07±3.14), (24.11±2.99), (30.11±3.41), (33.33±3.09)] than in the control group [(30.88±2.22), (48.34±3.88), (27.59±2.52), (17.77±3.08), (20.88±2.55); (28.67±2.09), (22.56±2.44), (27.99±3.03), (31.33±3.44)]. Compared with the control group, the observation group showed significantly lower incidence rates of errors in the execution of medical orders (19.23% vs. 2.00%, P=0.008) and errors in practice in accordance with standards (15.38% vs. 0.00%, P=0.006). There were no significant differences in the incidence rates of poor response on the spot, medical record errors, and medical dispute errors between the observation group and the control group (all P>0.05). The PSQ-18 scores in all dimensions of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group ( P=0.002, 0.001, 0.014, 0.008, <0.001). Conclusions:The two-way six-step nursing teaching model based on the Kolb's model can significantly improve the core competencies and self-learning abilities of nursing students in the department of emergency, and reduce errors in the execution of medical orders and practice in accordance with standards, thus improving their nursing service levels.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of percutaneous pedicle screw anchored vertebral augmentation(PP-SAVA)in the treatment of asymptomatic Kümmell disease without neurological symptoms.Methods The clinical data of 20 patients with Kümmell disease without neurological symptoms treated with PPSAVA in our hospital from January 2019 to De-cember 2021 were analyzed retrospectively,including 5 males and 15 females,aged 56 to 88(74.95±9.93)years old.and the course of disease was 7 to 60 days with an average of(21.35±14.46)days.All patients were treated with PPSAVA.The time of operation,the amount of bone cement injected and the leakage of bone cement were recorded.The visual analogue scale(VAS),Oswestry disability index(ODI),vertebral body angle(VBA),anterior edge height and midline height of vertebral body were compared among the before operation,3 days after operation and during the final follow-up.The loosening and displace-ment of bone cement were observed during the final follow-up.Results All the 20 patients completed the operation successfully.The operation time was 30 to 56 min with an average of(41.15±7.65)min,and the amount of bone cement injection was 6.0 to 12.0 ml with an average of(9.30±1.49)ml.Bone cement leakage occurred in 6 cases and there were no obvious clinical symp-toms.The follow-up time was 6 to 12 months with an average of(8.43±2.82)months.The VBA,anterior edge height and mid-line height of of injured vertebral body were significantly improved 3 days after operation and the final follow-up(P＜0.05),and the VBA,anterior edge height and midline height of of injured vertebral body were lost in different degrees at the final follow-up(P＜0.05).The VAS and ODI at 3 days after operation and at the final follow-up were significantly lower than those at preopera-tively(P＜0.05),but the VAS score and ODI at the final follow-up were not significantly different from those at 3 d after opera-tion(P＞0.05).At the last follow-up,no patients showed loosening or displacement of bone cement.Conclusion PPSAVA is highly effective in treating Kümmell disease without neurological symptoms,improving patients'pain and functional impair-ment,and reducing the risk of cement loosening and displacement postoperatively.

Palliative care not only embodies modern life perspectives, but also encompasses significant traditional Chinese cultural elements.The primary objective of palliative care is to alleviate patient suffering, preserve their dignity, and facilitate a peaceful passing.Traditional Chinese medicine, known for its simplicity, accessibility, affordability, and efficacy in disease prevention and treatment, adopts a holistic approach to address systemic pain through personalized treatment based on symptom differentiation.This approach aims to enhance the quality of life for terminally ill patients.To equip palliative care providers with essential clinical skills in traditional Chinese medicine, the National Center of Gerontology and Beijing Palliative Care Guidance Center collaborated with experts and scholars to develop guidelines focusing on common end-of-life symptoms.Through extensive deliberation, expert evaluation, and revisions, this guidance document was crafted as a valuable resource for palliative care practitioners, traditional Chinese medicine clinicians, and researchers in the field.

Further evidence is needed to explore the impact of high-altitude environments on the neurologic function of neonates.Non-invasive techniques such as cerebral near-infrared spectroscopy and amplitude-integrated electroencephalography can provide data on cerebral oxygenation and brain electrical activity.This study will conduct multiple cerebral near-infrared spectroscopy and amplitude-integrated electroencephalography monitoring sessions at various time points within the first 3 days postpartum for healthy full-term neonates at different altitudes.The obtained data on cerebral oxygenation and brain electrical activity will be compared between different altitudes,and corresponding reference ranges will be established.The study involves 6 participating centers in the Chinese High Altitude Neonatal Medicine Alliance,with altitude gradients divided into 4 categories:800 m,1 900 m,2 400 m,and 3 500 m,with an anticipated sample size of 170 neonates per altitude gradient.This multicenter prospective cohort study aims to provide evidence supporting the impact of high-altitude environments on early brain function and metabolism in neonates.[Chinese Journal of Contemporary Pediatrics,2024,26(4):403-409]

BACKGROUND:The problem of intervertebral disc injury and degeneration has been studied in many ways.Many studies have shown that intervertebral disc injury and degeneration is driven by mechanical loading factors.However,the potential relationship between common phenotypes of intervertebral disc injury and degeneration and mechanical loading factors has been rarely summarized. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the types of common structural abnormalities exhibited by intervertebral disc injury and degeneration in the published literature,and sum up the potential links to the types of mechanical loading that lead to these structural abnormalities in in vitro and ex vivo experimental studies. METHODS:Using the terms"intervertebral disc failure,intervertebral disc injury,mechanical load,mechanical factor,load factor,biomechanics"as Chinese and English key words in PubMed,CNKI,and WanFang databases,articles related to intervertebral disc injury degeneration and mechanical load factors were retrieved.Literature screening was performed according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,and 88 articles were finally included. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Common structural abnormalities of intervertebral discs include decreased intervertebral disc height,disc bulge,osteophyte formation,annulus fibrosus tear,intervertebral disc herniation or disc prolapse,endplate damage,Schmorl nodes and intervertebral disc calcification.Intervertebral discs are susceptible to mechanical load types such as compression,bending,axial rotation,and compound loads.(2)The compressive load mainly causes the decrease of the proteoglycan content and the water-binding ability of the intervertebral disc,leading to the decrease or swelling of the intervertebral disc and further damage and degeneration of the intervertebral disc.In addition,the excessive compressive load causes greater damage to the endplate.(3)Bending load and axial rotation load damage the annulus fibrosus more than the endplate,and prolonged or repeated bending loads can cause tearing of the fibrous annulus and herniation or prolapse of the intervertebral disc,while pure axial rotation loads can induce less damage to the intervertebral disc and only cause the tear of the annulus fibrosus.(4)However,when different load types act in combination,it is more likely to result in high stress on the disc and a greater risk of disc injury.(5)Injury and degeneration of the intervertebral disc present progressive structural damage,and early prevention and protection are particularly important in clinical practice.Future tissue engineering research can start with early repair of the intervertebral disc.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) combined with lower cervical fracture is often categorized into unstable fracture, with a high incidence of neurological injury and a high rate of disability and morbidity. As factors such as shoulder occlusion may affect the accuracy of X-ray imaging diagnosis, it is often easily misdiagnosed at the primary diagnosis. Non-operative treatment has complications such as bone nonunion and the possibility of secondary neurological damage, while the timing, access and choice of surgical treatment are still controversial. Currently, there are no clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture with or without dislocation. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedics Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts to formulate Clinical guidelines for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis combined with lower cervical fracture in adults ( version 2024) in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine, scientificity and practicality, in which 11 recommendations were put forward in terms of the diagnosis, imaging evaluation, typing and treatment, etc, to provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture.
