Due to its synergistic effects and reduced side effects, combination therapy has become an important strategy for treating complex diseases. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), the "monarch, minister, assistant, envoy" compatibilities theory provides a systematic framework for drug compatibility and has guided the formation of a large number of classic formulas. However, due to the complex compositions and diverse mechanisms of action of TCM, it is difficult to comprehensively reveal its potential synergistic patterns using traditional methods. Synergistic prediction based on molecular compatibility theory provides new ideas for identifying combinations of active compounds in TCM. Compared to resource-intensive traditional experimental methods, artificial intelligence possesses the ability to mine synergistic patterns from multi-omics and structural data, providing an efficient means for modeling and optimizing TCM combinations. This paper systematically reviews the application progress of AI in the synergistic prediction of TCM active compounds and explores the challenges and prospects of its application in modeling combination relationships, thereby contributing to the modernization of TCM theory and methodological innovation.

Incidental gallbladder cancer(IGC)is a type of gallbladder cancer identified during or after cholecystectomy for benign gallbladder diseases through intraoperative or postoperative pathological examination.Since gallbladder cancer often coexists with benign conditions such as gallstones and polyps,and routine abdominal ultrasound has limited sensitivity in early diagnosis,IGC accounts for more than two-thirds of all gallbladder cancer cases.To improve early diagnosis rates,high-risk patients should undergo high-resolution ultrasound after surgery,combined with the use of radiomics and molecular biomarkers to reduce misdiagnosis and missed diagnoses.Most IGC patients are diagnosed at early stages,with a high incidence of residual disease.Delayed radical surgery can effectively improve prognosis.However,for patients with locally advanced disease,radical surgery should not be performed indiscriminately,and conversion surgery may be a better option.The optimal timing for delayed radical surgery is within 2 to 8 weeks after the initial surgery,with specific timing based on the resolution of acute inflammation and the evaluation of tumor staging and metastasis.For patients with T1b and T2 stage cancer,liver segment IVb/V resection and lymph node dissection are recommended to ensure curative outcomes.The application of laparoscopic techniques in gallbladder cancer treatment is becoming increasingly widespread,with confirmed surgical safety and tumor control effects,leading to growing support for minimally invasive treatment among hepatobiliary surgeons.Additionally,indocyanine green-guided fluorescence laparoscopic technology allows for precise lymph node dissection and liver resection,reducing the risk of postoperative complications.In light of the complex anatomy in the hepatic hilum and hepatoduodenal ligament region in IGC patients,performing delayed radical surgery using the 3D laparoscopic PH approach(based on the portal vein and hepatic artery as the anatomical axis)helps prevent organ damage and tumor dissemination.This review summarizes the current surgical treatment of IGC and discusses the application of the PH approach in laparoscopic gallbladder cancer radical surgery.

Objective:To explore the developmental trajectory and influencing factors of self-management behavior among stroke patients.Methods:A total of 478 ischemic stroke patients admitted to the department of neurology of a grade-Ⅲ hospital in Henan Province from July 2023 to June 2024 were selected as the investigation objects. Baseline data of patients were collected using the general situation questionnaire, stroke knowledge questionnaire, stroke health belief scale, stroke self-management behavior scale and self-rating depression scale. The self-management behavior level of patients was assessed at discharge, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after discharge. Mplus 7.0 software was used to conduct trajectory analysis of stroke patients' self-management behaviors, and multiple Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors associated with the development trajectory types of different stroke self-management behaviors.Results:The self-management behavior scores of stroke patients at discharge, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after discharge were 206.59(167.59, 230.57), 169.59(129.73, 196.73), 149.82(120.89, 171.48), and 147.14(123.02, 181.64), respectively. Four trajectory categories were described. Category 1 was low-level pattern of initial decrease followed by stabilization, accounting for 16.95%(81/478)( P<0.001, intercept=2.701). Category 2 was low-level pattern of initial decrease followed by increase, accounting for 12.97%(62/478)( P<0.001, intercept =2.696). Category 3 was medium-level pattern of initial decrease followed by stabilization, accounting for 57.11%(273/478)( P<0.001, intercept =3.829). Category 4 was high-level pattern of initial decrease followed by increase, accounting for 12.97%(62/478)( P<0.001, intercept=4.366). The self-management behavior of stroke patients with low level of stroke knowledge, low level of health belief, aged 60 to 70 years old, residence in rural areas and middle school and below education level were more likely to belong to the low level group(all P<0.05). Patients with low depression in the low level group were more likely to be classified as low-level pattern of initial decrease followed by increase( P<0.05). Conclusion:The trajectory category of self-management behavior could be predicted by stroke knowledge level, health belief level, age, place of residence, educational background and depression. Their self-management behavior level may be improved through targeted interventions according to the characteristics of different trajectory categories.

Objective:To understand the feelings and experiences of patients with dizziness caused by cerebrovascular diseases, and to provide a reference basis for the development of nursing intervention measures.Methods:Semi-structured interviews were carried out from November 2024 to February 2025 by phenomenology method. The patients with dizziness caused by cerebrovascular diseases who were hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were selected by purposive sampling method. The interview data were analyzed by the Colaizzi 7-step analysis method to summarize and extract the themes.Results:Finally, 16 patients with dizziness caused by cerebrovascular diseases were interviewed, including 6 males and 10 females, aged 43 to 73 years. The feeling and experience of patients with dizziness caused by cerebrovascular diseases could be summarized into three themes: persistent physical symptoms (physiological function imbalance, the superposition of multiple symptoms); patients had cognitive biases (symptom risk cognitive bias, symptom knowledge cognitive bias, drug effect cognitive bias); patients' self-perceived burden was obvious(physical burden, emotional burden, and economic burden).Conclusions:The patients with dizziness caused by cerebrovascular diseases show multi-dimensional characteristics, and there are many burdens and needs in physiological, psychological and social aspects. We should pay attention to the symptom experience and psychological feelings of such patients, and give targeted health education and multi-dimensional social support.

With the increasing prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and the extremely high mortality, disability, symptom burden and dysfunction, as well as the need for continuous drug management and care and increased rehospitalization rate, it brings patients, families and even society huge economic burden. The transitional care model provides non-drug treatment method to help patients get through the transition period safely and steadily, it also improves patients' self-care ability, quality of life and reduce hospital readmission. This review will start from the concept of disease management in transitional period, elaborate on the problems and core elements of transitional caring, then discuss the application of advanced practice nurse-dominated transitional caring mode in COPD, so as to provide theoretical and practical basis for improving the quality of chronic diseases management in China.

Objective To reconcile previous studies on the impact of transitional nursing intervention on quality of life in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) after discharge from the Chinese population. Methods PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Clinical Trial, CBM, Joanna Briggs Institute Library, MEDLINE, Wanfang database and CNKI database, Vip database were searched by computer. The literatures about the influence of transitional nursing on the quality of life of COPD patients were searched until January 1, 2018. the data were analyzed by Rev Man 5.3 software. The results showed that P<0.05 on both sides was statistically significant. Results Five clinical studies were included, and the data were combined according to the symptom, activity, social psychology and St.George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) total score in the SGRQ scale. Mean difference and its 95％confidence interval of symptoms, activities, social psychology and SGRQ score were-13.09 (-18.71,-7.48), 12.05 (-14.55,-9.45),-17.87 (-22.27,-13.46) and-15.42 (-19.74,-11.10) (Z=4.57-9.42, all P <0.05). Conclusions The transitional nursing has a significant positive effect on improving the quality of life among patients with COPD, which can effectively improve the psychosocial status of patients, and make the patients respond more actively to the problems in the process of treatment and rehabilitation.

Objective To investigate the effect of supine regulating on maternal fetal occiput posterior position during the delivery after epidural analgesia. Methods Totally600 cases of parturient with intravaginal posterior occipital position with 3cm voluntary labor analgesia were selected,who were born in Dalian maternity hospital from October 2015 to October 2016.The(Visual Analogue Scale/Score) VAS pain score at 15min after epidural labor analgesia was as effective as less than 3 points.They were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group by random number table method,with 300 cases in each group.The control group monitored parturient respiration, pulse, blood pressure, heart rate and fetal heart rate according to routine treatment.The control group monitored parturient respiration, pulse, blood pressure, heart rate and fetal heart rate according to routine treatment.In the observation group,except for routine treatment according to the labor process,after the opening of 5cm,the pregnant women were instructed to take the lateral prone position,so that the maternal side and the fetal side of the spinal column should be the same side. To observe the difference between the two groups in the rate of spontaneous vaginal delivery, delivery rate, cesarean section rate, fetal cardioversion rate, time of birth process and neonatal Apgar score. Results Totally 283 cases delivery through vagina and 17 cases of cesarean section in observation group,while 257 cases of vaginal delivery and 43 cases of cesarean section in the control group.The successful rate of fetal position transfer in the observation group was 74.6%(211/283) which was significantly higher than 45.9% (118/257) of the control group (Χ2=62.782, P<0.01), natural labor rate was also 87.3% (262/300) which increased significantly according to 64.7% (194/300) (Χ2=42.251, P<0.01),the rate of midwifery (7.0%, 21/300) and cesarean section (5.7%, 17/300) were significantly lower than 21.0% (63/300)and 14.3% (43/300) of the control group (Χ2=24.419, 12.519,P<0.01),the second stage of labor was(1.60±0.56)h which was significantly shortened than(2.19±0.53)h also(t=-12.589,P<0.01).In the observation group, the ratio of the posterior occipital position to the occipital transverse position after the opening of 8-10 cm and the complete dilation of the cervical were 7.4%(21/283)and 13.1%(37/283),which were also significantly increased than 3.4%(9/264),6.8%(18/264) of the control group (Χ2=4.240, 5.911, P<0.05). Conclusions Supine adjustment after the cervix dilatation larger than 5cm is more conducive to fetal rotation and to avoid the adverse complications, reduce the rate of vaginal delivery and cesarean section rate,improve the rate of natural childbirth,shorten delivery time,improve the quality of delivery.
