Objective:To analyze the status of social support and the influencing factors of support utilization among general practitioners.Methods:An investigation on the status of social support and the influencing factors of support utilization was conducted among general practitioners (GPs) from 6 communities in Shanghai Minhang District selected by simple sampling method in February 2023. The investigation included a questionnaire survey containing basic information and intervention measures (emotional support, information support, tool support); and assessments of the Social Support Rate Scale (SSRS), Perceived Social Support Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale, Quality of Work Life Scale, Trait Coping Style Scale, and Psychological Resilience Scale. The association of social support status with various characteristics of GPs and their perceived social support and trait coping style was analyzed, and the influencing factors of social support utilization were determined.Results:A total of 184 questionnaires were distributed and 184 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective recovery rate of 100.00%. Among the 184 participants, 55 (29.89%) had a general level of social support, and 129 (70.11%) were satisfied with their social support. The total score of SSRS was (37.49±8.41), with the objective support dimension scoring (9.67±3.42), subjective support scoring (20.04±4.52), and support utilization scoring (7.77±2.09). Univariate analysis showed significant differences in social support levels among respondents with different marital status, number of children, emotional support, informational support, instrumental support, positive coping, negative coping, psychological resilience, compassion fatigue, general self-efficacy, and perceived social support status ( P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that marital status, family support, professional skills, positive coping, and negative coping were independent influencing factors of social support. Among these factors, being married, having family care support, professional titles and skills and positive coping had a positive impact on social support levels, while negative coping had a negative impact ( P<0.05). Further stepwise multiple linear regression analysis showed that friend support, positive coping and family care were positive influencing factors for support utilization, while negative coping was a negative influencing factor ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The levels of social support among GPs in Minghang district of Shanghai are relatively high. Marital status, family support, professional title and skills and positive coping are positive factors for social support; and friend support, positive coping and family support are positive factors for support utilization.

This article is to evaluate the clinical outcomes and health economics of minimally invasive surgery for hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage(HICH).This review systematically compares clinical efficacy and economic value of three minimally invasive techniques:small bone window microsurgery,neuroendoscopic surgery and stereotactic drainage based on 12 randomized controlled trials(RCTs),7 cohort studies,and 8 economic evaluations 2019-2024.Cost-effectiveness analysis(CEA)and cost-utility analysis(CUA)were employed to assess resource utilization and health outcomes.Minimally invasive approaches overall outperform conventional craniotomy.Stereotactic surgery achieves the shortest hospitalization(5-8 days)and lowest direct costs;neuroendoscopy significantly improves quality of life(quality-adjusted life years(QALYs);and small bone window surgery offers the best postoperative stability.It is recommended to choose the surgical method based on patient characteristics and to optimize healthcare resource allocation through medical insurance payment reform and technology promotion.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma （GR）-containing serum on lipopolysaccharide （LPS）-induced inflammation in human colon epithelial adenocarcinoma cells （Caco2） based on inhibition of ferroptosis by the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 （Nrf2）/heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1） pathway. MethodCaco2 cells were divided into a normal group， a model group （LPS， 200 μg·L^-1）， low-， medium-， and high-dose GR-containing serum groups （5%， 10%， 20%）， and a ferroptosis inhibitor group （3-amino-4-cyclohexylamino-benzoic acid ethyl ester， Fer-1， 10 μmol·L^-1）. The cells in the normal group were cultured normally， while those in other groups underwent the induction of an inflammation model. The cells in the low-， medium-， and high-dose GR-containing serum groups were treated with 5%， 10%， and 20% GR-containing serum for 24 hours， respectively， and the cells in the ferroptosis inhibitor group were treated with Fer-1 for 24 hours. Transmission electron microscopy was used to observe mitochondrial morphology in each group. Flow cytometry was used to detect intracellular Fe²⁺ levels. Microplate assays were performed to measure superoxide dismutase （SOD） activity， malondialdehyde （MDA） and glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px） levels. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to measure interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， IL-6， IL-10， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） levels. Western blot was used to measure the expression levels of Nrf2， HO-1， ferritin heavy chain 1 （FTH1）， and glutathione peroxidase 4 （GSH-Px4） proteins. Small interfering RNA （siRNA） was used to investigate the role of Nrf2 in ferroptosis regulation. The cells after interference were divided into a negative control （NC） group， a Si-Nrf2 group， a GR-containing serum （20%） + Si-Nrf2 group， and a GR-containing serum （20%） + NC group. Microplate assays were performed to measure MDA， SOD， and GSH-Px levels， and Western blot was used to measure the expression levels of Nrf2， HO-1， FTH1， and GSH-Px4 proteins. ResultCompared with the normal group， the model group showed mitochondrial contraction， increased mitochondrial membrane thickness， and smaller mitochondrial morphology， increased Fe²⁺ content （P<0.01）， blunted SOD activity （P<0.01）， decreased GSH-Px expression （P<0.01）， increased MDA content （P<0.01）， reduced expression levels of Nrf2 and HO-1 （P<0.05）， reduced FTH1 expression （P<0.01）， and down-regulated GSH-Px4 expression （P<0.01）. In the GR-containing serum groups， the medium- and high-dose groups showed a significant decrease in Fe²⁺ content （P<0.01）， potentiated SOD and GSH-Px activities （P<0.01）， and decreased MDA levels （P<0.01）. The high-dose group showed a significant increase in Nrf2 expression （P<0.05）， and the medium-dose group showed increased expression of HO-1 and GSH-Px4 proteins （P<0.05）. The expression levels of FTH1 significantly increased in the low-， medium-， and high-dose groups （P<0.01）. The study on mechanism revealed that compared with the NC group， the cells transfected with Nrf2 siRNA showed increased MDA content （P<0.01）， blunted SOD activity （P<0.01）， decreased GSH-Px activity （P<0.01）， decreased expression of Nrf2 and HO-1 （P<0.01）， and reduced levels of FTH1 and GSH-Px4 proteins （P<0.01）. Compared with the Si-Nrf2 group， the cells treated with GR-containing serum showed a decrease in MDA content （P<0.01）， an increase in SOD activity （P<0.01）， an increase in GSH-Px activity （P<0.01）， increased expression of Nrf2 and FTH1 proteins （P<0.05）， and higher expression levels of HO-1 and GSH-Px4 proteins （P<0.01）. ConclusionGR-containing serum can reduce the inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress levels in LPS-induced Caco2 cells. Its mechanism is related to the promotion of Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway expression， alleviating intracellular lipid peroxidation and inhibiting ferroptosis.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the effectiveness of Caprini thrombosis risk assessment model in assessing the risk of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in orthopedic patients.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, 52 orthopedic patients who were diagnosed with DVT in Anhui Provincial Hospital from April 2016 to March 2019 were selected as the DVT group. According to the ratio of 1 to 2, 104 patients with non-DVT in Department of Orthopedics were selected as the non-DVT group. The Caprini risk assessment model was used to carry out DVT risk scoring and risk classification, and the relationship between different risk grading and occurrence risk of DVT in patients was explored. Logistic regression was used to explore the risk factors of DVT in orthopedic patients.Results:The Caprini score of the DVT group was (12.25±4.26) , which was higher than (7.18±2.92) of the non-DVT group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=7.727, P<0.01) . The difference between the DVT group and the non-DVT group in Caprini risk classification was statistically significant (χ 2=8.778, P<0.05) . In the Caprini risk classification, the risk of DVT in very high-risk patients was 7.099 (95% CI: 1.604-31.412) times higher than that in non-very high-risk patients. Logistic regression analysis showed that BMI≥25 kg/m 2, bed rest time≥72 h, lower extremity swelling, plaster/limb fixation, and selective lower extremity joint replacement surgery were 5 high-risk factors for patients with DVT ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The Caprini risk assessment model has a good predict ability for the risk of DVT in orthopedic patients. Nursing staff can carry out targeted nursing intervention according to the high-risk factors of DVT. Stratified management of this model can also enable effective hierarchical prevention of DVT risk groups and ensure the safety of patients to the maximum extent, which is worthy of clinical application.
