Acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS)is a common clinical syndrome in intensive care unit(ICU)with high morbidity and mortality.Recently,the new global definition of ARDS has redefined the diagnosis of ARDS,which is divided into non-intubated ARDS,intubated ARDS and ARDS with limited resources.Hypoxia is the main clinical manifestation of ARDS,and respiratory support therapy is the first-line treatment for ARDS.With respect to non-intubated ARDS,current guidelines do not provide a clear preference between high flow nasal cannula(HFNC)and non-invasive mechanical ventilation(NIV).In order to improve clinical managmet of non-intubated ARDS,we review the role of HFNC and NIV in non-intubated ARDS in this paper.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) viral load for the cervical cancer screening and triage of high-risk HPV positive populations without additional tests.Methods:(1) This study conducted a retrospective analysis of 29 720 women aged 35-64 years who received cervical cancer screening in Quanzhou, China, in 2021. Fourteen high-risk HPV types (including HPV 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66, and 68) were detected for cervical cancer primary screening using hybrid capture-chemiluminescence method. High-risk HPV positive samples were further subjected to HPV 16/18 genotyping using hybrid capture-chemiluminescence method. Among them, HPV 16/18 positive women were directly referred to colposcopy, while the other 12 high-risk HPV positive samples were further subjected to liquid based cytology test. Those with abnormal or suspicious cytology were referred to colposcopy. Biopsies were taken for histopathological examination of suspicious or abnormal individuals under colposcopy. (2) Ten cases of colposcopy loss or refusal to undergo examination were excluded, and the data from the 29 710 cases were analyzed. The HPV viral loads of the other 12 high-risk HPV positive populations were focused and evaluated their HPV viral loads for further cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) Ⅱ and above lesions (CINⅡ +) triage in cervical cancer screening. Results:(1) Among 29 720 women, 2 487 women (8.37%, 2 487/29 720) were positive for high-risk HPV, including 807 women (2.72%, 807/29 720) were positive for HPV 16/18 and 1 680 patients (5.65%, 1 680/29 720) were positive for the other 12 high-risk HPV types. Among 1 680 women who tested positive for the other 12 high-risk HPV types, 573 patients were atypical squamous cell carcinoma of unclear significance or above, 346 patients were CIN Ⅰ, 122 patients were CIN Ⅱ-Ⅲ, 9 patients were squamous cell carcinoma patients, and 4 patients were adenocarcinoma in situ. The immediate risk of CIN Ⅱ + in HPV 16/18 positive women (11.13%) was approximately four times higher than that of other 12 high-risk HPV positive women (2.74%). (2) Through the viral load analysis of the other 12 high-risk HPV types, we found that the viral load of the other 12 high-risk HPV provide a good value for the pathological results, with a clinical cutoff (CO) value of 11.21 relative light unit/CO (RLU/CO) for the CINⅡ + detection. Except for HPV 16/18 positive patients, when the viral load values of the other 12 high-risk HPV types were greater than 10 RLU/CO, these patients had a higher risk of CINⅡ +, with a positive predictive value of 31.29%. CINⅡ + was not found in any of the other 12 high-risk HPV positive with viral load values less than or equal to 10 RLU/CO. Conclusions:Using hybrid capture-chemiluminescence HPV tests for HPV 16/18 genotyping, combined with the viral loads (>10 RLU/CO) of the other 12 high-risk HPV analysis, one could triage HPV positive population without additional tests. Such triage strategy could promote the coverage of cervical cancer screening, particularly where cytology pathologists or economic resources are limited.

This articles summarized the clinical experience of national TCM master Professor Yan Shiyun in using ointment prescriptions to treat chronic pharyngitis.Professor Yan Shiyun believes that the etiology and pathogenesis of chronic pharyngitis are based on inflammation of the deficiency fire,with phlegm heat accumulation as the symptoms.Dysfunction of organs such as the liver,gallbladder,spleen and stomach,lungs and kidneys,as well as retention of wind pathogens,are also important pathological mechanisms.Based on the differentiation of Tibetan symptoms,the clinical approach advocates for a comprehensive understanding of the patients'condition,focusing on the core pathogenesis.The main treatment methods include regulating yin and yang,clearing phlegm and heat,regulating spleen and stomach,dispelling wind and clearing throat,and comprehensively considering other syndromes.The use of compound prescriptions for comprehensive treatment has shown significant therapeutic effects.The commonly used medicinal combination is Physalis Calyx Seu Fructus,Chebulae Fructus Immaturus and Arctii Fructus.

Objective This study aims to develop an early in-hospital temperature management protocol for heat stroke patients and assess its effectiveness,providing guidance for rapid cooling and precise target temperature control.Methods The protocol was developed through a Delphi expert consultation combined with expert panel meetings.A multi-center,non-randomized,historical control study was conducted,utilizing convenience sampling to select heat stroke patients from the emergency departments of 7 tertiary hospitals in Zhejiang Province,China,between June and August 2024 as an experimental group.The protocol was implemented in this group,while the control group consisted of heat stroke patients treated between June and August 2022,prior to protocol implementation.Cooling rates,target temperature attainment rates,and clinical outcomes were compared between the 2 groups.Results The final protocol included 6 primary indicators,23 secondary indicators,and 56 tertiary indicators.After protocol implementation,the experimental group achieved a cooling rate of 0.08(0.05～0.09)℃/min within 0.5 hours,significantly higher than the control group,which had a rate of 0.04(0.02～0.06)℃/min(P＜0.001).The target temperature attainment rates at 0.5 hours and 2.0 hours were 55.93％and 98.31％,respectively,significantly higher than the rates of 15.87％and 61.11％in the control group(P＜0.001).The mechanical ventilation rate,hospitalization rate,ICU admission rate,and mortality rate in the experimental group were 25.42％,61.02％,44.07％,and 8.47％,respectively.Logistic regression analysis revealed that the early in-hospital temperature management protocol significantly reduced the risk of mechanical ventilation and hospitalization in heat stroke patients,with odds ratios(ORs)of 0.294 and 0.300,respectively(both P＜0.05).Conclusion The developed protocol for early in-hospital temperature management in heat stroke patients is scientific,systematic,and practical.It improves cooling rates and target temperature attainment,thereby enhancing the prognosis of heat stroke patients.

Objective To investigate the effects of parecoxib sodium on pain and Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4)/p38 mitogen activated protein kinase(p38MAPK)pathway in rats with femoral fracture.Methods Sixty rats were randomly separated into sham operation group,model group,TLR4 inhibitor(TAK-242)group(3 mg/kg),parecoxib sodium group(10 mg/kg),and parecoxib sodium+TLR4 activator lipopolysaccharide group(10 mg/kg parecoxib sodium+15 mg/kg LPS),with 12 rats in each group.Except for the sham operation group,rats in all other groups were used to establish a femoral fracture model by transverse cutting of the mid femur.After 28 days of treatment in each group,X-rays were used to detect the degree of fracture healing in rats.The mechanical pain threshold(PWMT)and thermal pain threshold(PWTL)of rats were measured.ELISA was applied to detect the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6),and IL-10 in serum.Micro-CT method was applied to detect changes in femoral bone density(BMD),bone volume fraction(BV/TV),trabecular thickness(Tb.Th),and trabecular quantity(Tb.N)in rats.HE staining was applied to observe the pathological changes of bone tissue at the fracture site in rats.Western blot was applied to detect the expression of TLR4/p38MAPK pathway related proteins in bone tissue at the fracture site.Results Compared with the sham operation group,the fracture lines of rats in the model group were obvious,with a small amount of callus growth,the PWMT,PWTL,femoral BMD,BV/TV,Tb.Th,and Tb.N decreased,while the levels of serum IL-6,TNF-α,and IL-10,and the levels of TLR4 and p-p38MAPK/p38MAPK proteins in the bone tissue at the fracture site increased(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the fracture lines in the TAK-242 group and the parecoxib sodium group were blurred,and there was an increase in callus growth,the PWMT,PWTL,femoral BMD,BV/TV,Tb.Th,and Tb.N,the serum IL-10 level increased,while the serum IL-6,TNF-αlevels,the TLR4 and p-p38MAPK/p38MAPK protein levels in bone tissue at the fracture site decreased(P＜0.05).LPS could upregulate the phosphorylation levels of TLR4 and p38MAPK,and weaken the relieving effects on anti-inflammatory and pain of parecoxib sodium on fracture rats.Conclusion Paracoxib sodium may alleviate pain and accelerate fracture healing in rats with femoral fractures by inhibiting the TLR4/p38MAPK pathway and suppressing inflammatory responses.

OBJECTIVE To explore the diagnostic value of multi-slice spiral CT(MSCT)dynamic enhanced scan in lymph node metastasis of thyroid cancer,and to analyze the causes of missed diagnosis by MSCT dynamic enhanced scan.METHODS A total of 88 patients with thyroid cancer diagnosed by surgery and pathology admitted to the 924th Hospital of the Joint Logistic Support Force of the People's Liberation Army of China from March 2022 to July 2023 were selected.All patients underwent routine CT plain scan and MSCT dynamic enhanced scan.The results of the two scanning methods were compared with postoperative pathological examination as the gold standard.The influencing factors of missed diagnosis of MSCT were analyzed by multivariate Logistic analysis.Chi-square automatic interactive detection(CHAID)classification tree algorithm was used to construct the prediction model of missed diagnosis,and the benefit graph and index graph were used to evaluate the clinical application value of the model.RESULTS The missed diagnosis rates of lymph node metastasis in conventional CT scan and MSCT dynamic enhanced scan were 39.13%and 13.04%,respectively.The diagnostic sensitivity,specificity,accuracy and positive predictive value in MSCT group were 86.96%,87.69%,87.50%and 71.43%,which were significantly higher than those in conventional CT scan group.The MSCT group showed high consistency with the gold standard diagnosis(Kappa=0.726).The results of multi-factor analysis showed that irregular edge,blurred edge,calcification,involvement of envelope and cystic change were the risk factors of missed diagnosis.The results of classification tree model showed that calcification had the greatest influence on missed diagnosis among 5 factors,which were edge irregularity,edge blur,calcification,involvement of envelope and cystic degeneration.The results show that the model is effective in predicting missed diagnosis.CONCLUSION The accuracy and sensitivity of MSCT dynamic enhanced scan in the diagnosis of lymph node metastasis of thyroid cancer are high,and the diagnostic results can provide a reference for early diagnosis and further treatment,and have high application value.

Objective:To observe the efficacy and safety of combined lienal polypeptide injection therapy in the treatment of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia（MPP）in children aged 3 to 14 years old in multiple clinical centers.Methods:A randomized，controlled，multi-center clinical study design was adopted.A total of 240 hospitalized children aged 3 to 14 years old with MPP from 7 hospitals from September 1，2023 to January 31，2024 were included.According to the severity of pneumonia，they were divided into the mild MPP group with 80 cases and the severe MPP/refractory MPP（SMPP/RMPP）group with 160 cases，and then randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group at a ratio of 1 ∶1，using the random number table method.After screening，subjects entered a treatment period of 5 to 7 days.The control group was treated with azithromycin，while the experimental group was treated with azithromycin plus lienal polypeptide injection .The recovery of lung CT，length of hospital stay，duration of fever，cough score，whether mild cases developed into severe or refractory cases，duration of hormone use，use of intravenous immunoglobulin（IVIG），bronchoscopy treatment，and immune function were observed between the two groups to evaluate the efficacy of lienal polypeptide injection.Adverse events after medication，vital signs，blood routine，urine routine，liver function，myocardial enzymes，renal function，and electrocardiogram were observed to evaluate the safety. Results:A total of 231 subjects have completed the trial in the 7 hospitals，including 118 cases in the experimental group and 113 cases in the control group.Main observation index：the rate of lung CT aggravation in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group（2.6% vs 15.3%， P<0.01），and the difference was statistically significant.Secondary indexes：there were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay，duration of fever，cough score，duration of hormone use，whether IVIG treatment was used，the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases，and immunoglobulin between the two groups（all P>0.05）.However，the rate of cases of plastic bronchitis（PB）found under bronchoscopy in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group（0 vs 18.8%， P=0.03），and the difference was statistically significant.Among the mild MPP（72 cases），there were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay，duration of fever，cough score，duration of hormone use，whether IVIG treatment was used，the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases，and the improvement rate of lung CT between the two groups（all P>0.05）.However，compared with the control group，the rate of cases developing into SMPP/RMPP in the experimental group was less（24.3% vs 48.6%， P=0.03），and the difference in IgG before and after treatment was small［0.53（-0.04，1.18）g/L vs 1.33（0.48，2.25）g/L， P=0.01］.Among the SMPP/RMPP cases（159 cases），the rate of cases of PB found under bronchoscopy in the experimental group was less than that in the control group（0 vs 20%， P=0.04），and the rate of cases with aggravated lung CT in the experimental group was less than that in the control group（1.3% vs 19.5%， P<0.01），and the improvement rate of lung CT in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group（88.8% vs 75.3%， P=0.03），with statistically significant differences.There were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay，duration of fever，cough score，duration of hormone use，whether IVIG treatment was used，the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases，and immunoglobulin between the two groups（all P>0.05）.Two cases in the experimental group developed rashes，which improved after the drug was discontinued.There were no serious adverse reactions such as abnormal vital signs like dyspnea and cyanosis due to the use of lienal polypeptide injection.There were no obvious changes in blood routine，liver function，myocardial enzymes，renal function，electrocardiogram，and urine routine values before and after medication compared with the baseline. Conclusion:The combined use of lienal polypeptide injection in the treatment of MPP in children can reduce the probability of the transformation from mild cases to SMPP/RMPP，reduce the rate of aggravation of the image findings，promote the absorption of lung inflammation，reduce the rate of PB found under bronchoscopy，and has good safety.

Objective To investigate the relationships of serum procalcitonin(PCT),α1-acid glycoprotein(α1-AGP)and cluster of differentiation 64(CD64)index with the severity of illness and prognosis in patients with pulmonary Candida infection after lung cancer surgery.Methods A pro-spective study was conducted in 120 patients with pulmonary Candida infection after lung cancer sur-gery as infection group,and 60 patients without infection after lung cancer surgery in the same period were selected as control group.Baseline characteristics and laboratory indicators were compared be-tween the two groups.Differences in serum PCT,α1-AGP,CD64 index in peripheral blood,and plasma 1,3-β-D glucan test(BG)were compared among patients with different severities of illness and prognoses in the infection group.The relationship between serum indicators and prognosis as well as their predictive efficiencies were analyzed,and external validation was performed.Results The levels of serum PCT,α1-AGP,CD64 index in peripheral blood,and plasma BG in the infection group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).In the infection group,the levels of serum PCT,α1-AGP,and CD64 gradually decreased significantly in patients with severe,moderate,and mild illness,and the levels of these indicators in dead patients were significantly higher than those in surviving patients(P＜0.05).Survival curve analysis showed that patients with low levels of serum PCT,α1-AGP,and CD64 index before treatment had higher survival rates than those with high levels of these indicators.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis revealed that the combined prediction of PCT,α1-AGP,and CD64 index for mortality was superior to individual indicators or their pairwise combinations,and external validation confirmed the good predictive efficacy of the combined prediction.Conclusion PCT,α1-AGP,and CD64 index are closely related to pulmonary Candida infection after lung cancer surgery,and the combined detection of these indicators has certain predictive value for 28-day prognosis.

Objective This study aims to investigate the work fatigue risks of clinical nursing staff in a tertiary hospital in Xingguo County and analyze the influencing factors,providing a reference for formulating scientific work processes and systems and improving nursing quality.Methods A convenience sampling was conducted to select 179 clinical nurses from a tertiary hos-pital in Xingguo County from March to April 2025.A self-designed general information questionnaire,a clinical nursing staff work fatigue risk assessment questionnaire,and the nurse work stressor scale were used for the investigation.Univariate and multiple linear regression analyses were conducted to identify the influencing factors of work fatigue risks.Results A total of 186 ques-tionnaires were distributed,with 7 excluded as invalid and 179 valid responses(96.24％).The work fatigue risk assessment score of the 179 clinical nurses was(84.39±10.26),indicating a relatively high level of fatigue.There were significant differ-ences in work fatigue risk scores across genders,weekly working hours,years of work experience,contract types,and work stress levels(P＜0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender(B=0.624,95％CI=0.194～1.054),weekly work-ing hours(B=0.037,95％CI=0.067～0.007),years of work experience(B=0.028,95％CI=0.010～0.046),contract type(B=-0.517,95％CI=-0.997～-0.037),and work stress(B=0.127,95％CI=0.050～0.204)were the influen-cing factors of work fatigue risks(P＜0.05).Conclusion The work fatigue risks of clinical nursing staff in a tertiary hospital in Xingguo County are at a relatively high level.Gender,weekly working hours,years of work experience,contract type,and work stress are the main influencing factors.Nursing managers should pay attention to these factors and take targeted measures to inter-vene and reduce the work fatigue risks of nursing staff.
