Objective:To identify the latent profiles of transition shock among newly employed nurses and explore its influencing factors.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. Using the convenience sampling method, 215 newly employed nurses were selected as the research subjects. The General Information Questionnaire for Newly Employed Nurses, the New Nurse Transition Shock Evaluation Scale, and the Adversity Quotient Scale were used for the survey. The method of latent profile analysis was adopted to identify the types of nurses' transition shock.Results:There were three categories of transition shock among newly employed nurses. Among them, there were 134 nurses (62.32%) with moderate transition shock, 37 nurses (17.21%) with low-level transition shock and positive psychology, and 44 nurses (20.47%) with high-level transition shock and lack of knowledge and skills. Gender, whether being an only child, reasons for choosing a career, and adversity quotient were the influencing factors of the latent profiles of nurses' transition shock ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The transition shock of newly employed nurses is at a moderate level, with three latent types: moderate transition shock type, low-level transition shock-positive psychology type, and high-level transition shock-lack of knowledge and skills type. Managers should formulate detailed intervention strategies according to the influencing factors of different categories to reduce the level of transition shock among newly employed nurses.

The study was a prospective observational study. A total of 24 patients who underwent maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) at Haidian Hospital in Beijing from May 2024 to June 2024 were included as the study subjects. The safety and efficacy of a new single-needle dialysis in MHD patients were evaluated. The reasons for using single-needle dialysis included waiting for the maturity of internal fistula(7 cases, 29.17%), autogenous arteriovenous fistula thrombosis occurred (6 cases, 25.00%), puncture difficulty occurred (7 cases, 29.17%), and pain sensitivity or elderly (4 cases, 16.67%). The results showed that the average blood flow was (155.65±5.90) ml/min, total blood volume was (35.92±2.65) L during single-needle dialysis. One patient had slight puncture leakage, and the puncture success rate was 95.83%. Relevant indicators of dialysis adequacy showed that the average urea clearance (Kt/V) was 0.90±0.42, urea reduction ratio was 58.31%±7.93%, and online real-time Kt/V monitoring average value was 0.98±0.55. The results suggest that the application of the new improved single-needle dialysis mode in MHD patients is safe and effective.

OBJECTIVE: To develop a method for identifying high-risk patients among septic populations requiring mechanical ventilation, and to conduct phenotypic analysis based on this method. METHODS: Data from four sources were utilized: the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC-IV 2.0, MIMIC-III 1.4), the Philips eICU-Collaborative Research Database 2.0 (eICU-CRD 2.0), and the Anhui Medical University Second Affiliated Hospital dataset. The adult patients in intensive care unit (ICU) who met Sepsis-3 and received invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) on the first day of first admission were enrolled. The MIMIC-IV dataset with the highest data integrity was divided into a training set and a test set at a 6:1 ratio, while the remaining datasets were served as validation sets. The demographic information, comorbidities, laboratory indicators, commonly used ICU scores, and treatment measures of patients were extracted. Clinical data collected within first day of ICU admission were used to calculate the sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score. K-means clustering was applied to cluster SOFA score components, and the sum of squared errors (SSE) and Davies-Bouldin index (DBI) were used to determine the optimal number of disease subtypes. For clustering results, normalized methods were employed to compare baseline characteristics by visualization, and Kaplan-Meier curves were used to analyze clinical outcomes across phenotypes. RESULTS: This study enrolled patients from MIMIC-IV dataset (n = 11 166), MIMIC-III dataset (n = 4 821), eICU-CRD dataset (n = 6 624), and a local dataset (n = 110), with the four datasets showing similar median ages and male proportions exceeding 50%; using 85% of the MIMIC-IV dataset as the training set, 15% as the test set, and the rest dataset as the validation set. K-means clustering based on the six-item SOFA score was performed to determine the optimal number of clusters as 3, and patients were finally classified into three phenotypes. In the training set, compared with the patients with phenotype II and phenotype III, those with phenotype I had the more severe circulatory and respiratory dysfunction, a higher proportion of vasoactive drug usage, more obvious metabolic acidosis and hypoxia, and a higher incidence of congestive heart failure. The patients with phenotype II was dominated by respiratory dysfunction with higher visceral injury. The patients with phenotype III had relatively stable organ function. The above characteristics were consistent in both the test and validation sets. Analysis of infection-related indicators showed that the patients with phenotype I had the highest SOFA score within 7 days after ICU admission, initial decreases and later increases in platelet count (PLT), and higher counts of neutrophils, lymphocytes, and monocytes as compared with those with phenotype II and phenotype III, their blood cultures had a higher positivity rates for Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria and fungi as compared with those with phenotype II and phenotype III. The Kaplan-Meier curve indicated that in the training, test, and validation sets, the 28-day cumulative mortality of patients with phenotype I was significantly higher than that of patients with phenotypes II and phenotype III. CONCLUSIONS Three distinct phenotypes in septic patients receiving IMV based on unsupervised machine learning is derived, among which phenotype I, characterized by cardiorespiratory failure, can be used for the early identification of high-risk patients in this population. Moreover, this population is more prone to bloodstream infections, posing a high risk and having a poor prognosis.

Alzheimer′s disease is a serious neurodegenerative disorder. Approximately 80% to 90% of patients are accompanied by behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD), which manifest as a series of behavioral, psychological and mental abnormalities. These abnormalities can accelerate the cognitive deterioration and premature death of patients, and thus are regarded as important clinical symptoms. However, the pathogenesis of BPSD is still unknown, and treatment methods are limited. The pathogenesis of BPSD from the perspective of neuroimaging and pathophysiology, and possible treatment measures were analyzed in this article, in order to provide references for the early diagnosis and treatment of BPSD.

Objective:To investigate the attention level of oral medicine residents in standardized training (referred to as residency training) to oral aesthetic information and its influencing factors.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study, which included 262 residents undergoing standardized training at Hospital of Stomatology, Wuhan University in January 2020. Among them, there were 73 males and 189 females, with an age range of 23-33 (26±2) years. A questionnaire survey method was used, and the questionnaire included the basic characteristics of the subjects (gender, grade, major, identity, and having training experience in prosthodontic base or not) as well as their attention to oral aesthetic information (facial proportions, facial midline, smile line, facial contour, E-line, nasolabial angle, tooth shape and contour, and tooth proportions). Differences in the attention to oral aesthetic information among residents with different basic characteristics were compared, and a multivariable logistic regression was used to identify the influencing factors.Results:Among the 262 oral medicine residents, 256 (97.7%) believed that it was necessary to pay attention to oral aesthetic information. The differences in attention to facial proportions between residents of different genders and between those with and without training experience in the prosthodontic base were statistically significant (both P<0.05). The results of the multivariate logistic regression showed that male residents were less likely to pay attention to facial proportions compared with female residents ( OR=0.45, 95% CI: 0.23-0.88). Compared with residents specializing in orthodontics, non-orthodontic residents were less likely to pay attention to the E-line ( OR=0.14-0.27, 95% CI: 0.04-0.68) and nasolabial angle ( OR=0.14-0.31, 95% CI: 0.04-0.81). Residents who were graduate students with integrated four certificates were more likely to pay attention to the E-line compared with industry-based personnel ( OR=1.88, 95% CI: 1.01-3.49). Residents without training experience in the prosthodontic base were less likely to pay attention to the facial proportion ( OR=0.44, 95% CI: 0.20-0.97) and tooth shape and contour ( OR=0.33, 95% CI: 0.11-0.98) compared with those with such training experience in prosthodontic base. Conclusions:Oral medicine residents have a high level of attention to oral aesthetic information. Gender, major, identity, and having training experience in the prosthodontic base or not are factors that influence their attention to oral aesthetic information.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect mechanism of electroacupuncture (EA) for ameliorating diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) based on the analysis of gut microbiota and metabolomics. METHODS: Thirty SPF-grade male SD rats were randomly divided into a normal group, a model group, and an EA group, with 10 rats in each one. Except in the normal group, the intraperitoneally injection with streptozotocin was used to induce diabetes mellitus model in the rest groups. In the EA group, acupuncture was delivered at bilateral "Zusanli" (ST36), "Sanyinjiao" (SP6), "Pishu" (BL20) and "Shenshu" (BL23), and electric stimulation was attached to "Zusanli" (ST36)-"Sanyinjiao" (SP6) and "Pishu" (BL20)-"Shenshu" (BL23), on the same side, with continuous wave and a frequency of 2 Hz, for 10 min in each intervention. The intervention measure of each group was delivered once every 2 days, 3 times a week, for 8 consecutive weeks. Body weight, random blood glucose (RBG), thermal withdrawal latency (TWL), and mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) before intervention, and in 4 and 8 weeks of intervention, separately, as well as sensory nerve conduction velocity (SCV) and motor nerve conduction velocity (MCV) of the sciatic nerve after intervention were measured. Metagenomic sequencing (MS) was used to analyze gut microbiota and screen for differential species. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was employed to detect the differential metabolites in plasma, and the metabolic pathway enrichment analysis was performed on the differential metabolites. Spearman correlation analysis was adopted to assess the relationship between gut microbiota and metabolomics. RESULTS: After 4 and 8 weeks of intervention, when compared with the model group, the EA group showed the increase in body weight, TWL, MWT (P<0.01), and the decrease in RBG (P<0.01). Compared with the normal group, SCV and MCV, as well as Chao1 index were dropped in the model group (P<0.01), and those were elevated in the EA group when compared with those in the model group (P<0.01). The dominant bacterial phyla of each group were Firmicutes (F) and Bacteroidota (B), the ratio of them (F/B) in the model group was lower than that of the normal group (P<0.05), and F/B in the EA group was higher when compared with that in the model group (P<0.05). In comparison with the normal group, the relative abundance increased in Prevotella, Segatella, Prevotella-hominis and Segatella-copri (P<0.05); and it decreased in Ligilactobacillus, Eubacterium, Pseudoflavonifractor, Ligilactobacillus-murinus (P<0.05) in the model group. Compared with the model group, the relevant abundance of the above mentioned gut bacteria was all ameliorated in the EA group (P<0.05, P<0.01). Among the three groups, 120 differential metabolites were identified and enriched in 28 key metabolic pathways, such as glycerophospholipid and linoleic acid, of which, glycerophospholipid was the most significantly affected pathway in EA intervention. Spearman correlation analysis showed that 6 phosphatidylcholine metabolites were significantly positively correlated with Pseudoflavonifractor and were negatively with Prevotella, Segatella, Prevotella-hominis, Segatella-copri; 5 phosphatidylethanolamine metabolites were significantly negatively correlated with Pseudoflavonifractor and positively correlated with Prevotella, Segatella, Prevotella-hominis, Segatella-copri. CONCLUSION EA may regulate metabolic pathways such as glycerophospholipid, modulate specific gut microbiota such as Pseudoflavonifractor, Prevotella, and Segatella, and the co-expressed differential metabolites like phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine, thereby reducing blood glucose and protecting nerve function, so as to relieve the symptoms of DPN of rats.
