ObjectiveTo investigate the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of psittacosis cases in Fuyang District of Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, and to provide evidence for clinical diagnosis, treatment, and prevention and control of this disease. MethodsEpidemiological investigation data and clinical records of psittacosis cases residing in Fuyang District of Hangzhou from September 2020 to February 2025 were collected. Descriptive epidemiological methods were applied to analyze temporal-spatial-demographic distribution characteristics, exposure history, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment and laboratory findings. Comprehensive analyses were further conducted incorporating environmental surveillance and case follow-up data. ResultsAmong the 16 psittacosis cases, the male-to-female ratio was 1∶1, with an incidence rate of 0.57/100 000 for both males and females. The mean age was (59.88±10.66) years old, and the highest incidence rates were in the 70‒79 years and 60‒69 years age groups, with an incidence rate of 1.41/100 000 and 1.30/100 000, respectively. Fourteen cases (87.50%) had a history of avian exposure. The predominant clinical symptoms included fever (15 cases, 93.75%), cough (11 cases, 68.75%), expectoration (9 cases, 56.25%), and fear of cold (8 cases, 50.00%). All cases showed elevated levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), and the results of chest computed tomography (CT) indicated pneumonia in every case. Neutrophil percentage was elevated in 87.50% (14/16) of cases, while lymphocyte percentage was reduced in 93.75% (15/16) of cases. The median time from onset to first medical consultation was 4.00 days, the median time from onset to confirmed diagnosis was 9.50 days, and the median time of hospitalization was 9.00 days. Compared with non-severe cases, the severe group had significantly higher neutrophil percentage, CRP levels, and longer intervals from onset to confirmed diagnosis, onset to first antibiotic administration, and duration of hospitalization. All cases recovered and were discharged, and more than 50% were treated with omadacycline following confirmed diagnosis. ConclusionMost psittacosis cases reported definitive avian exposure history in Fuyang District of Hangzhou. Early diagnosis and treatment are critical for preventing disease progression to severe stages.

Objective To analyze the chest computed tomography (CT) imaging features of occupational pneumoconiosis induced by dust of iron and iron compounds (OPTIDIC), and to explore imaging evidence for its diagnosis and differential diagnosis. Methods Abnormal coronal multiplanar reconstruction CT images of 19 patients with OPTIDIC were analyzed retrospectively, and imaging findings were compared with those from chest digital radiography (DR). Results Chest CT imaging of 19 patients with OPTIDIC showed multiple small, round opacities in both lungs, with predominantly low-density nodules in 14 cases, and high-density nodules in five cases. Nodules were mainly distributed in the upper and middle lung zones in 15 cases and diffusely distributed in four cases. Hilar/mediastinal lymphadenopathy and lymph node calcification were observed in 11 and 6 cases, respectively. Interlobular septal thickening was observed in six cases, while reticular opacities, increased lung markings, patchy ground-glass opacities, pleural thickening, and emphysema were observed in 6, 4, 7, 5, and 4 cases, respectively. On chest DR, small opacities were classified as p/s and p/t types in 16 and 3 cases, respectively. No large opacities or honeycombing were observed on either coronal chest CT or chest DR among 19 patients with OPTIDIC. Conclusion Chest CT findings of OPTIDIC patients are characterized by small, low-density round opacities, with a predominance in the upper and middle lung zones and frequent hilar and mediastinal lymphadenopathy. CT provides valuable evidence for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of OPTIDIC.

Background::The increasing incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) presents significant medical and societal challenges. A well-designed IBD database is crucial for both epidemiological studies and clinical management. However, inconsistencies between regional databases hinder cross-institutional and international research, especially between Eastern and Western societies.Methods::We developed a new IBD database, the 301 IBD database, integrating the IBD clinical characteristics from the Penn IBD database (USA) and the latest IBD guidelines and consensus and clinical practices of the Chinese PLA General Hospital (PLAGH). We applied this database to analyze clinical data of IBD inpatients at PLAGH from 2008 to 2023.Results::The 301 IBD database contains 490 items in 6 sections including demographic characteristics, personal history, clinical phenotype, disease activity, laboratory tests and examinations, and treatment. Features of the 301 IBD database include inpatient focus, biochemical indicators and opportunistic infection focus, and more about ulcerative colitis (UC)-associated complications. Single-center analysis revealed an increasing hospitalization trend, from 2.35% in 2008 to 3.94% in 2023. We found that the clinical characteristics of our UC inpatients are predominantly male (62.5%), extensive lesions (55.1%), low usage of biologics (4.1%), and a high incidence of UC-CRC (3.0%). The clinical characteristics of CD inpatients included male predominance (68.39%), early onset age (35.43 ± 14.75-year-old), and high rate of surgery (25.81%).Conclusion::The 301 IBD database, integrating Eastern and Western clinical data, provides a valuable tool for IBD clinical research. Future international, multicenter collaborations are expected to further enhance its utility.

Objective:To construct a mindfulness based cancer rehabilitation training program for patients with malignant hematologic diseases based on the Liverpool mindfulness model, providing practical guidance for improving their physical and mental symptoms.Methods:The system searched for relevant literature on the application of mindfulness intervention in patients with malignant hematological diseases retrieved from Cochrane Library, PubMed, CINAHL, PsycInfo, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. The search period was from January 1, 1982 to December 26, 2023. Using the Liverpool mindfulness model as the theoretical framework, based on the literature review, group meetings and semi-structured interviews, a preliminary draft of a mindfulness cancer rehabilitation training program for patients with malignant hematologic diseases was developed. After 2 rounds of Delphi expert consultation, the final version of the intervention plan was determined.Results:Among the 19 experts, there were 4 males and 15 females, aged 30-61 (47.11 ± 7.64) years old. The effective recovery rates of the two rounds of expert inquiry questionnaires were both 19/19, and the expert authority coefficients were both 0.88. The Kendall coordination coefficients for the two rounds of inquiry were 0.214 and 0.220, respectively ( χ2=77.37, 108.66, both P<0.01).A mindfulness based cancer rehabilitation training program for patients with malignant hematologic diseases was ultimately developed, including intervention subjects, intervention personnel, intervention sites and forms, intervention timing, intervention intensity, intervention process and training theme content. Conclusions:The mindfulness based cancer rehabilitation training program for patients with malignant hematologic diseases constructed based on the Liverpool mindfulness model is necessary, scientific, and clinically suitable, and can provide a basis for clinical psychological nursing practice for patients with malignant hematologic diseases.
