Objective To explore the time-varying characteristics and correlation degree of autonomous rehabili-tation behavior and related symptoms of middle-aged stroke patients,and to provide a basis for clinical transitional nursing and precise rehabilitation.Methods Ecological momentary assessment was used to select 57 middle-aged stroke patients who underwent rehabilitation treatment in the Rehabilitation Medicine Department of a tertiary com-prehensive hospital in Wuhan from March 15 to August 30,2024,using convenience sampling method.Their au-tonomous rehabilitation behavior and related symptoms(fatigue,pain,emotion,sensation)were continuously monitored for 2 weeks.A hierarchical linear model was used to analyze the correlation between behavior and symptoms.Results The autonomous rehabilitation behavior of middle-aged stroke patients showed a fluctuating increasing trend,and the symptom score showed a slow decreasing trend.The hierarchical linear model showed that compared with female patients,male patients have longer duration of autonomous rehabilitation behavior(P＜0.05).The number and duration of autonomous rehabilitation behaviors in patients without fatigue were higher(P＜0.05).The number of autonomous rehabilitation behaviors in patients without pain was higher than that in patients with pain(P＜0.05).The number of autonomous rehabilitation behavior items among patients who perceived more pleasure in rehabilitation was higher than that among patients with greater difficulty in rehabilitation challenges(P＜0.05).Patients with high rehabilitation confidence have higher numbers and duration of autonomous rehabilitation behaviors compared to pa-tients with low rehabilitation confidence(P＜0.05).Conclusion There are significant individual differences and dy-namic changes in the autonomous rehabilitation behavior and related symptoms of middle-aged stroke patients.Nurs-ing staff should accurately implement personalized rehabilitation services during the transition period,enhance pa-tients'autonomy and self-management ability in home-based rehabilitation,in order to improve the overall rehabilita-tion effect.

ObjectiveTo evaluate pharmacological effects of Shengmai injection（SMI）on cerebral ischemia and study its neuroprotective mechanism. MethodsMale specific pathogen-free （SPF） Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly divided into a sham group， a model group， a low-dose SMI group（3 mL·kg^-1）， a middle-dose SMI group（6 mL·kg^-1）， a high-dose SMI group（12 mL·kg^-1）， and a Ginaton group（4 mL·kg^-1）according to the random number table method， with 12 rats in each group. The rat model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion（MCAO/R）was prepared via the suture method. The administration groups were intraperitoneally injected with corresponding concentrations of SMI or Ginaton injection after reperfusion， which was conducted for 3 consecutive days. The sham group and model group were administered the equivalent volume of physiological saline. The pharmacological effects of SMI on brain injury in MCAO/R rats were evaluated by neurological function scores， cerebral infarction area， hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining， Nissl staining， terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling （TUNEL） staining， and Western blot. The dominant link and key protein of SMI treating cerebral injury were explored using proteomic analysis. The related mechanisms of SMI were further validated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）， Western blot， and chloride ion fluorescence probe with oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation（OGD/R）-treated PC12 cells and MCAO/R rats. ResultsCompared with the sham group， the model group showed significantly increased neurological function scores， cerebral infarction area， neuronal apoptosis rate， and expression levels of apoptosis related proteins （P<0.05， P<0.01）and significantly decreased density of Nissl bodies and neurons（P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the SMI groups exhibited significantly decreased neurological function scores， cerebral infarction area， neuronal apoptosis rate， and expression levels of apoptosis related proteins （P<0.05， P<0.01）and significantly increased density of Nissl bodies and neurons （P<0.05）. The proteomic analysis results showed that oxidative stress and inflammatory response were important processes of SMI intervening in MCAO/R injury， and the chloride intracellular channel protein 1 （CLIC1） was one of key proteins in its action network. The levels of representative indicators of oxidative stress and inflammatory response in the MCAO/R rats of the SMI groups were significantly reduced， compared with those in the model group（P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the expression levels of CLIC1 and downstream NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3） decreased （P<0.01）. In addition， the experimental results based on the OGD/R PC12 cells showed that SMI significantly increased the cell survival rate（P<0.01） and significantly decreased the intracellular chloride ion concentration（P<0.05）. ConclusionSMI has neuroprotective effects. Oxidative stress and inflammatory response are key processes of SMI intervening in MCAO/R injury. The potential mechanism is closely related to the regulation of CLIC1.

Objective To observe the value of venous phase CT radiomics combined with clinical features for predicting breast cancer susceptibility gene(BRCA)mutation in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer(EOC).Methods A total of 111 EOC patients diagnosed by surgical pathology and BRCA detection were retrospectively enrolled and divided into training set(n=90,35 BRCA mutations[+]and 55 BRCA mutations[-])and test set(n=21,8 BRCA mutations[+]and 13 BRCA mutations[-])at the ratio of 8∶2.Clinical and CT data were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression(LR)to screen independent predictors of BRCA mutations in EOC patients,and then a clinical model was established.Based on venous phase CT,the best radiomics features of EOC lesions were extracted and screened,radiomics score(Radscore)was calculated.Machine learning(ML)models were established using random forest(RF),support vector machine(SVM)and LR,respectively,and the optimal ML model was screened.Finally a combined model was constructed based on Radscore and independent predictors.The predictive efficacy and clinical value of each model were evaluated.Results Human epididymis protein 4 was the independent predictor of BRCA mutation in EOC patients,and the area under the curve(AUC)of clinical model was 0.648 and 0.742 in training and test sets,respectively.AUC of RF,SVM and LR model was 0.726,0.763 and 0.860 in training set,0.708,0.750 and 0.700 in test set,respectively,and SVM model was the optimal ML model.AUC of combined model was 0.819 and 0.783 in training and test set,respectively,which in training set was higher than that of clinical model(P=0.022).No significant difference of AUC was found by pairwise comparison of other models in both training and test set(all P＞0.05).Decision curve analysis showed that when the threshold was larger than 0.15,the clinical value of combined model was higher than that of clinical and SVM models.Conclusion Venous phase CT radiomics combined with clinical features could effectively predict BRCA mutation in EOC patients.
