ObjectiveTo explore the effectiveness of feedforward control mode on improving occupational burnout among operating room nurses through theoretical research and clinical practice， with a view to promoting their physical and mental health and enhancing the quality of surgical nursing. MethodsA total of 440 operating room nurses from different regions， scales， and nursing experiences in Shaanxi Province from November 2023 to December 2023 were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group， with 220 nurses in each group. While the control group received routine intervention measures， the experimental group introduced a feedforward control mode based on the control group， with “emotional exhaustion，” “depersonalization，”and“personal achievement” as observation indicators. ResultsThe incidence of occupational burnout in the experimental group was 11.4%， while that in the control group was 20.0%. The experimental group showed a significantly lower incidence than the control group （P=0.013）. ConclusionThe feedforward control mode can significantly alleviate nurses’ sense of job burnout， promote the improvement of surgical nursing quality， as well as continuously improve the scientific rigor， advancement， and humanistic nature of nursing services， which is conducive to building a harmonious and efficient nursing team. The spirit of teamwork， reflected in mutual support， mutual trust， and joint efforts for surgical success and patient health， has become an important component of nurses’ professional ethics.

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)is a critical process in the development of various cancers,including glioma.In glioma cells,the activation of hypoxia-inducible factors(HIFs)can influence the occurrence of EMT,promoting cell migration and invasion.This review aims to explore the role of HIF in the EMT process of glioma cells,focusing on its impact on cell migration and invasion,including regulation of angiogenesis,metabolic reprogramming,glycolysis,and the immune system in the tumor microenvironment.Additionally,this review summarizes the role of HIF in EMT-related signaling pathways,such as Wnt/β-catenin(β-catenin),Notch,and transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β),and provides new insights and directions for further understanding the mechanisms of HIF in the EMT process of glioma cells.

Corresponding improvement strategies were proposed to enhance the quality of TCM evidence mapping literature, increase the reliability and applicability of research outcomes, and thereby promote the modernization and internationalizati.

Corneal refractive surgery, a widely adopted method for correcting refractive errors, has demonstrated its safety, efficacy, and predictability in extensive research. Studies indicate varying degrees of intraoperative fluctuations inintraocular pressure, potentially impacting the posterior segment structures and functions due to surgical techniques, equipment, technical proficiency, and patient-specific factors. Although short-term postoperative follow-up in most patients does not reveal visual dysfunction, the long-term effects and potential risks of transient high intraocular pressure during surgery on the posterior segment structures and functions remain unclear. Therefore, the assessment of posterior segment complications following corneal refractive surgery is of paramount importance in clinical practice. This review aims to explore the characteristics of intraocular pressure fluctuations during corneal refractive surgery and their effects on structures and functions of the vitreous, retina, and optic nerve in the posterior segment, analyze possible causes and risk factors, discuss their implications for current clinical treatment, and consider future trends, providing insights for clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the factors contributing to frailty in very elderly patients with multimorbidity.Methods:This cross-sectional study enrolled 119 very elderly patients with multimorbidity who were hospitalized in the Department of Geriatrics of Huadong Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from August 2022 to March 2023.The study aimed to understand the basic status of multimorbidity by collecting general information, the number and types of diseases, and frailty status.The subjects were divided into frail and non-frail groups through comprehensive geriatric assessment.Various factors including gender, age, Tinetti balance gait score, risk of sarcopenia, dementia, depression, risk of deep vein thrombosis, dysphagia, comorbidity index, medication count, Basic Activities of Daily Living(BADL)score, Instrumental Activities of Daily Living(IADL)score, Nutritional Risk Screening 2002(NRS-2002)score, Norton pressure injury risk assessment score, and Social Support Rating Scale(SSRS)score were compared.The correlation between each factor and the occurrence of frailty was analyzed using univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results:A total of 119 elderly inpatients with multimorbidity, with an average age of 90.8±5.9 years old, were included in the study.The incidence of frailty was 68.9%(82 cases).Univariate analysis revealed significant statistical differences between the frail group and the non-frail group in various factors including age( t=-3.131, P=0.002), Tinetti score( Z=-5.544, P<0.001), risk of sarcopenia( χ2=39.205, P<0.001), dysphagia( χ2=5.937, P=0.015), Charlson comorbidity index( Z=-2.565, P=0.010), medication count( Z=-3.325, P<0.001), BADL( Z=-5.871, P<0.001), IADL( Z=-5.062, P<0.001), Norton score( Z=-5.922, P<0.001), and SSRS social support( Z=-2.637, P=0.008).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the Tinetti score( OR=0.843, 95% CI: 0.737-0.966, P=0.014), decreased muscle strength( OR=11.226, 95% CI: 2.157-58.432, P=0.004), sarcopenia( OR=18.084, 95% CI: 2.041-106.211, P=0.009), Norton score( OR=0.462, 95% CI: 0.254-0.838, P=0.011), and medication count( OR=1.153, 95% CI: 1.000-1.329, P=0.049)were independently associated with frailty. Conclusions:In very elderly patients with multimorbidities, the occurrence of frailty is notably increased.Frailty is linked to multiple risks including falls, muscle weakness/sarcopenia, pressure ulcer risk, and polypharmacy, and these risks are independent of other factors.

Objective:To construct a new thrombus risk assessment model and evaluate its predictive ability for venous thromboembolism(VTE)in the patients with malignant tumors,and to provide the basis for the early predition of the malignant tumor patients with high risk for VTE.Methods:A total of 128 untreated malignant tumor patients were included,of which 40 were diagnosed with VTE within 2 months of malignant tumor diagnosis and categorized as VTE group.A total of 88 patients who did not develop VTE were categorized as non-VTE group.The clinical risk factors and laboratory indicators of the patients in two groups were compared and analyzed;the types of thrombotic events of the patients were analyzed;the diagnostic values of thrombin-antithrombin-complex(TAT),α2-plasmin inhibitor-plasmin complex(PIC),D-dimer(D-dimer),and fibrin degradation products(FDP)in malignant tumors complicated by VTE were assessed using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis;Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the correlations of the clinical risk factors and biomarkers with the malignant tumors complicated with VTE.A new thrombus risk assessment model was constructed,consisting of TAT≥0.70 μg·L-1,poor differentiation,and cardiovascular risk factors.The predictive probability of the model for malignant tumors complicated by VTE was evaluated based on the significance,goodness of fit,calibration curve,and C value of the model.The clinical application value of the new thrombus risk assessment model,COMPASS-CAT risk score(CRS),and Khorana risk score(KRS)in assessing malignant tumor patients complicated by VTE was compared using the C value and decision curve analysis(DCA).Results:The plasma levels of TAT(P＜0.001),PIC(P＜0.001),D-dimer(P＜0.05),and FDP(P＜0.01)of the patients in VTE group were higher than those in non-VTE group.Compared with the patients without cardiovascular risk factors,poor differentiation,and lymphatic metastasis,the malignant tumor patients with cardiovascular risk factors(P＜0.001),poor differentiation(P＜0.001),and lymphatic metastasis(P＜0.05)were more likely to develop VTE.Most VTE events(65％)were isolated deep vein thromboembolism(DVT).The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC),sensitivity,and specificity of TAT and PIC were higher than those of D-dimer and FDP.TAT≥0.70 μg·L-1(P＜0.05),poor differentiation(P＜0.01),and cardiovascular risk factors(P＜0.01)were the independent risk factors for VTE in the malignant tumor patients.A new thrombus risk assessment model consisting of TAT≥0.70 μg·L-1,poor differentiation,and cardiovascular risk factors was constructed.The new risk assessment model had a high goodness of fit(P=0.805)and good predictive ability during internal validation(x2=75.266,P＜0.001).The ROC curve analysis results showed that the C values for the new thrombus risk prediction model,CRS,and KRS were 0.908,0.676,and 0.541,respectively.The DCA curve analysis results showed that the new thrombus risk assessment model had a higher net benefit rate compared with CRS and KRS.Conclusion:TAT and PIC have greater diagnostic efficiency than D-dimer in the early prediction of the malignant tumor patients with high-risk VTE.For the patients included in this study,the new thrombus risk assessment model,constructed from TAT≥0.70 μg·L-1,poor differentiation,and cardiovascular risk factors,has superior diagnostic efficiency and clinical predictive value compared with CRS and KRS.

Objective:To investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided lumbar quadratus muscle plane block combined with general anesthesia on the analgesic effect during and after laparoscopic colon cancer radical surgery in elderly patients.Methods:A prospective study was conducted on 61 elderly patients who underwent radical colon cancer surgery at the Changsha Central Hospital Affiliated to South China University from May 2022 to February 2023, with American Society of Anesthesiologist (ASA) grades Ⅱ to Ⅲ. They were randomly divided into SA and GA groups using a random number table method, with 31 patients in the SA group and 30 patients in the GA group. The SA group received ultrasound-guided plane block of the upper lumbar quadratus muscle in the arcuate ligament combined with general anesthesia, while the GA group received simple general anesthesia. Record the mean artery pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) of two groups of patients at the time of entering the operating room (T 0), 5 minutes before skin incision (T 1), at skin incision (T 2), 30 minutes after surgery (T 3), at surgery end (T 4), and during anesthesia resuscitation and extubation (T 5); The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) of two groups of patients at T 5, upon returning to the ward (T 6), 6 hours (T 7), 12 hours (T 8), 24 hours (T 9), and 48 hours (T 10) after surgery were recorded; The dosage of sufentanil, remifentanil, and propofol used during surgery, anesthesia recovery time, total number of analgesic pump presses within 48 hours after surgery, Lovett muscle strength score, early postoperative recovery, and adverse reactions within 48 hours after surgery were also recorded. Resultsl:The MAP and HR of the SA group were lower than those of the GA group at T 1-5 (all P<0.05); The VAS score of the SA group was lower than that of the GA group at T 5-10 (all P<0.05); The intraoperative dosage of propofol, remifentanil, and sufentanil in the SA group was lower than that in the GA group (all P<0.05); The anesthesia recovery time and first time out of bed in the SA group were earlier than those in the GA group (all P<0.05); The total number of times the analgesic pump was pressed within 48 hours after surgery was less than that of the GA group ( P<0.05); The incidence of nausea and vomiting within 48 hours after surgery in the SA group was lower than that in the GA group ( P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in postoperative Lovett muscle strength score, hospital stay, and dizziness incidence between the two groups of patients (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Ultrasound-guided lumbar quadratus muscle plane block on the arcuate ligament can significantly reduce the dosage of intraoperative general anesthesia drugs and postoperative analgesics in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic colon cancer surgery, reduce postoperative pain scores, effectively alleviate postoperative pain, and thus advance the patient′s first time out of bed activity, reduce postoperative complications, and promote rapid recovery.

Objective:To investigate the analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block combined with laryngeal mask general anesthesia and internal fixation of proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) under ERAS concept in elderly patients.Methods:A total of 50 elderly patients with femoral trochanteric fractures treated with PFNA internal fixation who were admitted to Changsha Central Hospital from January 2021 to March 2022 were selected and according to the random number table method, they were divided into groups P and F, with 26 cases in group P (ultrasound-guided PENG block combined with laryngeal mask general anesthesia group) and 24 cases in group F [ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB)] combined with laryngeal mask general anesthesia group]. The bispectral index (BIS) of the two groups of patients was maintained within the range of 40-60, and the dosage of cyclopofol and remifentanil was adjusted according to the BIS and hemodynamic changes. Postoperative oxycodone was used for patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA). When the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score ≥4, 1 mg intravenous oxycodone was administered as rescue analgesia. The VAS score was observed and recorded before nerve block (T 0), 10 minutes after nerve block (T 1), 20 minutes after nerve block (T 2), when the patients were placed in body position after bed (T 3), after laryngeal mask removal (T 4), 12 h after operation (T 5), 24 h after operation (T 6) and 48 h after operation (T 7). The mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR) and blood oxygen saturation (SpO 2) at each time point from T 0 to T 4 were observed and recorded; the intraoperative dose of remifentanil, the rescue dose of oxycodone at postoperative T 6 and T 7, Lovett muscle strength score, anesthesia operation time, anesthesia recovery time and postoperative anesthesia-related complications were recorded. Results:There was no significant difference between the two groups in VAS scores at T 0, T 4, T 5 and T 6, MAP, HR and SpO 2 at T 0, T 1, T 2 and T 4, the dosage of remifentanil during operation, the remedial dosage of oxycodone at T 6 after operation, anesthesia operation time and anesthesia recovery time (all P>0.05). Compared with group F, the VAS scores of group P at T 1, T 2, T 3 and T 7 were lower than those of group F (all P<0.05); At T 3, there was no significant difference in SpO 2 between the two groups ( P>0.05), but the MAP and HR in group P was lower than that in group F (all P<0.05); The remedial dose of oxycodone at T 7 in group P was lower than that in group F ( P<0.05), and the analgesic effect was longer; Lovett muscle strength score at T 6 and T 7 in group P was better than that in group F (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with FICB, ultrasound-guided PENG block used in PFNA internal fixation in elderly patients has faster effect, lower dosage of opioid analgesics, longer duration of analgesia, and less impact on postoperative lower limb muscle strength.
