Objective:To evaluate the effect of smoking on the sedative potency of remimazolam combined with alfentanil in patients undergoing painless gastroscopy.Methods:This was a prospecctive single-center study. American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ male patients, aged 30-75 yr, with a body mass index of 18-28 kg/m 2, undergoing elective painless gastroscopy at Baoding First Central Hospital from October to December 2023, were divided into non-smoking group, mild smoking group (smoking index≤200), moderate smoking group (200 1 after 3 min of remimazolam injection or development of bucking, swallowing, body movement and other responses that affected operations during insertion of the endoscope. Results:A total of 85 patients were finally included, with 21 in non-smoking group, 21 in mild smoking group, 20 in moderate smoking group and 23 in heavy smoking group. The ED 50 of remimazolam was significantly higher in smoking groups than in non-smoking group ( P<0.05). The ED 50 of remimazolam gradually increased in mild, moderate and heavy smoking groups ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Smoking can decrease the sedative potency of remimazolam when combined with alfentanil in patients undergoing painless gastroscopy.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics of primary thoracic synovial sarcoma (PTSS).Methods:Forty-two PTSS cases diagnosed at the Department of Pathology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China from October 2011 to April 2024 were analyzed. All cases were retrospectively studied using hematoxylin-eosin staining and immunohistochemistry. Their clinicopathological features were also reviewed. SS18 rearrangement was assessed in 28 cases using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Next generation sequencing (NGS) was performed on 8 cases.Results:Among the 42 cases, there were 23 biopsies and 19 surgically-removed specimens. One case was a specimen resected after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. There were 22 males and 20 females, with an age ranging from 6 to 68 years. Twenty-nine cases occured in the lung, 6 in mediastinum, 4 in pericardium, 1 in visceral pleura, and 1 in right atrium. One case did not show any unequivocal primary site. Computed tomography showed the tumors were manifested as a cystic mass, a solid mass, or thickening of the pleura and pericardium. Thirty-two cases had respiratory symptoms, while 19 had pleural effusion. One case had a history of radiotherapy for papillary thyroid carcinoma. Nineteen patients were treated with surgery, while 19 were treated with chemotherapy without surgery. Four patients were diagnosed and discharged, without specific treatment on the record. Morphologically, 1 case was biphasic type, 39 cases were monophasic type, and 2 cases were poorly differentiated type. In addition to the typical morphology of synovial sarcoma, tumors also showed pulmonary bullous changes, stromal collagen hyalinization, hemangiopericytoma-like vasculature, stromal edematous myxoid changes, and microcystic structure. Immunohistochemically, all cases were diffusely positive for TRPS1 (22/22), TLE1 (21/22), CD99 (26/26), SS18-SSX (25/25) and INI1 (12/12), including 3 cases with decreased expression of INI1. Twenty-one cases were focally positive for EMA (21/30), 4 cases for SMA (4/23), 2 cases for S-100 (2/28), and 2 cases (2/35) for CKpan. Twenty-eight cases (28/28) had SS18 rearrangement displaying a split signal on FISH analysis. Eight cases were found to have mutations in SMC1A, NOTCH2, CDK12, SPRY4, BRCA1, STK11, NF2, and PDGFRα genes using NGS. Eighteen of the 29 patients survived and 16 showed disease progression.Conclusions:PTSS is more commonly found in the lungs than other sites and has non-classical morphological features of various types, which need to be differentiated from other tumors. TRPS1 is highly expressed in PTSS and has certain diagnostic values. The diagnosis of PTSS also requires combination of patient′s medical history with thorough imaging studies.

Panic disorder has the characteristics of early onset, late detection, high comorbidity rate and low treatment rate, which have a lasting impact on the physical and mental health of children and adolescents. Early intervention can reduce the risk of various mental disorders in adulthood. Cognitive-behavioral therapy(CBT), as a routine social psychological treatment, is also recommended as a first-line intervention for the treatment of panic disorder in children and adolescents. However, due to diagnostic and application difficulties, CBT has not received sufficient attention in the field of panic disorder in children and adolescents. Through a systematic review of the application of CBT in children and adolescents with panic disorder, it found that panic control therapy(PCT)and intensified CBT(iCBT) therapy are the main methods for treating panic disorder in children and adolescents, both of which can effectively alleviate the symptoms of panic disorder in children and adolescents.Cognitive restructuring, exposure, respiratory training and parental involvement are effective components of CBT treatment for panic disorder.In the future, it is necessary to increase attention to underage panic disorder, improve CBT cultural adaptation, use diverse treatment methods, objectively evaluate standards, and optimize research design, to promote the improvement of treatment effectiveness and the development of clinical research.

Objective:To gain an in-depth understanding of the career development of male nurses in China, analyze trends, challenges, and opportunities, and provide a basis for policy-making, talent cultivation, and professional development in the nursing field.Methods:A descriptive qualitative research method was adopted. From March 29th to July 30th, 2023, the heads of the male nurses working groups of nursing associations in 26 regions of China were selected by purposive sampling method for semi-structured interviews. Content analysis was used to analyze the data.Results:The current situation of the career development of male nurses in China could be summarized into the following three themes. (1) Current situation: the organizational structure of provincial-level male nurses work was basically complete, but there were obvious differences at the grassroots level; the work was carried out in various forms, and diverse models developed in coordination; (2) Trends: there were obvious stratifications in professional ideology and professional abilities of male nurses among different regions and different-level medical institutions; the gender dividend was gradually decreasing, and male nurses should give play to their advantages in logical thinking ability; (3) Prospects: early intervention was needed to enhance professional identity and organizational support; male nurses should be trained in various aspects through multiple forms such as counterpart assistance, expert databases or online academic forums; interdisciplinary development might be the key to stimulating internal driving force.Conclusions:Significant progress has been made in the career development of male nurses in China, but there are still challenges and issues to address. Further improvements in related policies, enhancement of social recognition and professional status, and increased investment and support in research and education are needed to promote the sustained development of male nursing careers.

Objective:To investigate the effective ingredients and molecular mechanisms of Qizao oral liquid in the treatment of lead poisoning through network pharmacology and molecular docking technology.Methods:December 2023, the effective ingredients and their corresponding targets of Qizao oral liquid were searched from the TCM Systems Pharmacology database. Swiss Target Prediction was used to predict corresponding potential target genes of compounds. Targets associated with lead poisoning were obtained from GeneCards and OMIM databases. Cytoscape 3.10.1 software was employed to construct a components and corresponding target network as well as a components and corresponding target network, followed by visualization and cluster analysis. GO and KEGG enrichment analyses were conducted using the Metascape database, resulting in the generation of a signaling pathway-target network diagram. Molecular docking analysis between the principal compounds and target proteins was performed using Autodock 4.2.6 and Pymol 2.2.0 software to validate their underlying molecular mechanisms.Results:A total of 114 active chemical components, 361 potential targets, 2501 lead poisoning targets, and 191 intersection targets of "Qizao oral liquid and lead poisoning" were screened. Further analysis revealed that there were 2091 entries for GO biological processes and 202 KEGG signaling pathways. Enrichment analysis showed that the key targets were mainly enriched in cancer, lipid and atherosclerosis, PI3K-Akt signaling pathways. Molecular docking showed that there were 14 combinations with binding energy<-5 kcal/mol, among which PIK3R1-β-sitosterol binding energy was -9.71 kcal/mol.Conclusion:The primary active components found in Qizao oral liquid, such as β-sitosterol, nuciferine, stephanine, and stigmasterol, have the potential to modulate key targets including PIK3R1, AKT1, TP53, and NFKB1. These components are capable of influencing the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway as well as lipid and atherosclerosis pathways in order to mitigate the adverse effects of lead exposure.
