Objective:To assess the safety and efficacy of thiotepa, busulfan, and etoposide (TBE) conditioning followed by autologous hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (TBE auto-HSCT) in primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) patients.Methods:Clinical data from 27 PCNSL patients who received TBE auto-HSCT at the Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital between November 1, 2021, and April 30, 2024, were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Twenty-seven patients [16 males, 11 females; median age 57 (23–72) years] were included, with 12 (44.4%, 12/27) over 60. Twenty-five had newly diagnosed PCNSL and 2 were relapsed. Median time from diagnosis to transplantation was 6.9 (5.0–10.0) months. TBE auto-HSCT increased complete remission (CR) rate from 63.0 to 96.3% ( P= 0.005), and 9 of 10 patients in partial remission achieving CR post-transplant. Median follow-up was 24.5 months (range 2.0–36.0). Two-year progress-free and OS rates were (87.2±6.9) % and (88.6±6.2) %, respectively. Common grade 3 nonhematologic adverse events were diarrhea (18.5%, 5/27) and bacterial infections (14.8%, 4/27). One patient (64 years old) died from carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infection within 2 months post-transplant, yielding a 100-day treatment-related mortality of 3.7% (1/27) . Conclusion:TBE-conditioned high-dose chemotherapy with auto-HSCT is effective, safe, and well-tolerated in PCNSL patients, including the elderly.

Objective To conduct bibliometrics and visual analysis of local benign paroxysmal positional verti-go(BPPV)research in the past 20 years for further basic and clinical research in the future.Methods We collected the journal articles on BPPV published between January 1,2004 and December 31,2023 from the databases of CNKI,Wanfang,VIP and Web of Science Core Collection.Multidimensional measurement and visual analysis were carried out using bibliometrics software to identify the research hotspots and new trends in this field,and to deter-mine the cooperation and influence among authors,institutions and journals.Results A total of 717 Chinese papers and 212 SCI papers were utilized for the analysis.The literature in this field gradually increased at an average annual growth rate of 12.8％,among which the Journal of Clinical Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery published the most articles(n=167),followed by the Chinese Journal of Otology(n=94)and the Journal of Audiology and Speech Pathology(n=76).The journal with the largest number of SCI publications is Frontiers in Neurology(n=44).In terms of authors and institutions,Zhuang Jianhua published the most Chinese papers,Yang Xu published the most SCI papers,and Shanghai Jiaotong University published the earliest and most SCI papers in this field(n=21).The main research keywords in this realm in recent years involve video head pulse test,vestibular migraine,re-sidual symptoms,residual dizziness and anxiety.The keywords retaining burst intensity to 2023 include video head pulse test,residual dizziness,children,anxiety,and residual symptoms.Conclusion Video head impulse test,re-sidual dizziness,children,anxiety and other aspects are critical areas of ongoing research in BPPV.

Objective:To explore the formation pathway of sleep deprivation in shift work nurses so as to provide a reference for improving their sleep.Methods:Purposive and theoretical sampling methods were used to select 18 shift work nurses from the clinical departments of six Class Ⅲ Grade A hospitals in Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province, from January to April 2024 for semi-structured interviews. The interview data were coded and analyzed by searching literature and interviewing shift work nurses, applying Strauss procedural grounded theory to inductively develop relevant concepts and categories.Results:After three levels of coding, 26 initial categories and 10 main categories were refined. Three core categories, namely, doctor-patient tension, institutional mechanism imbalance, and work pressure overload, were finally summarized to construct a formation pathway of sleep deprivation in shift work nurses.Conclusions:External doctor-patient tension, misaligned institutional mechanisms in healthcare organizations, and work pressure overload among shift work nurses are important factors in the formation of sleep deprivation, with work pressure overload being a core factor. It is recommended that sleep deprivation be alleviated through impartial reporting of medical incidents, rational handling of medical disputes, optimization of scheduling arrangements, provision of psychological counselling and enhanced staff training.

Objective:This study investigated the efficacy and safety of denosumab (DENOS) versus zoledronic acid (ZOL) in the bone disease treatment of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.Methods:The clinical data of 80 patients with myeloma bone disease (MBD) at the Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital between March 1, 2021 and June 30, 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. Eighteen patients with severe renal impairment (SRI, endogenous creatinine clearance rate<30 ml/min) were treated with DENOS, and 62 non-SRI patients were divided into DENOS (30 patients) and ZOL group (32 patients) .Results:Hypocalcemia was observed in 26 (33%) patients, and 22 patients developed hypocalcemia during the first treatment course. The incidence of hypocalcemia in the non-SRI patients of DENOS group was higher than that in the ZOL group [20% (6/30) vs 13% (4/32), P=0.028]. The incidence of hypocalcemia in SRI was 89% (16/18). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that endogenous creatinine clearance rate<30 ml/min was significantly associated with hypocalcemia after DENOS administration ( P<0.001). After 1 month of antiresorptive (AR) drug application, the decrease in the serum β-C-terminal cross-linked carboxy-telopeptide of collagen type I concentrations of SRI and non-SRI patients in the DENOS group were significantly higher than that in the ZOL group (68% vs 59% vs 27%, P<0.001). The increase in serum procollagen type Ⅰ N-terminal propeptide concentrations of patients with or without SRI in the DENOS group were significantly higher than that in the ZOL group (34% vs 20% vs 11%, P<0.05). The level of intact parathyroid hormone in each group increased after AR drug treatment. None of the patients developed osteonecrosis of the jaw and renal adverse events, and no statistically significant differences in the overall response rate, complete remission and stringent complete remission rates were found among the groups ( P>0.05), and the median PFS and OS time were not reached ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:In the treatment of MBD, DENOS minimizes nephrotoxicity and has strong AR effect. Hypocalcemia is a common adverse event but is usually mild or moderate and manageable.

Objective:To explore the psychological recovery pathway and support needs of second victims of nurses who have experienced medical adverse events through qualitative research.Methods:From June to December 2022, a purposive sampling method was used to select 20 nurses who had experienced level Ⅲ or above adverse events and voluntarily participated in this study from 3 grade A tertiary hospitals in Hubei Province and 1 grade A tertiary hospital in Sichuan Province. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the research subjects and the data was analyze by using thematic analysis.Results:The psychological recovery path of nurses who had experienced medical adverse events included three stages, named as the plateau period, stress response period, and coping and growth period. The second victim of nurses hoped to receive support from the department′s environmental culture, organizational atmosphere, and non punitive culture, and nurses in the platform stage had a stronger need for the first two types of support; the nurses preferred emotional support from superiors, colleagues, family/friends during the stress response period, and preferred knowledge learning and training support during the coping and growth period.Conclusions:The psychological recovery of the second victim of nurses will go through a plateau period, a stress response period, and a coping and growth period. There are differences in support needs during each period, and more targeted intervention plans should be developed.

Objective:To explore the feasibility of extracting the key plane of the normal fetal palate on the 11-13 + 6 week from tomography ultrasonography imaging based on artificial intelligence. Methods:The fetal volume datas of 235 cases of 11-13 + 6 week normal fetal were collected from the Department of Ultrasound in the Luohu District People′s Hospital of Shenzhen and Huazhong University of Science and Technology Union Shenzhen Hospital from May 2020 to April 2021. The data acquisition was completed by sonographers A and B by using the GE Voluson E10 color Doppler ultrasound diagnostic instrument. All datas were marked offline by sonographer C. Tomographic imaging was performed on all included data by sonographer D, the tomographic images were saved and the time-consuming was recorded, and the datas of the sonographer group were obtained. The labeled data were randomly divided into the training set and test set for model transfer learning and testing.The 4-fold cross-validation was adopted to record the test set image output by the model and the time consumption to obtain the intelligent group data. A senior sonographer performed image analysis on the two groups of data images. The feasibility of the intelligent model was verified by comparing the score of the plane of retronasal triangle(RTP), the acquisition rate of RTP, the acquisition rate of the fault, and the time-consuming difference between the sonographer group and the intelligent group. Results:①There was no significant difference in the overall distribution of RTP scores between the sonographer group and intelligent group [5 (5, 6) points vs 5 (5, 6) points, Z=0.355, P=0.722]. The RTP acquisition rate of the sonographer group and intelligent group was not statistically significant (78.72% vs 76.60%, χ 2=0.55, P=0.458). The consistency and correlation of RTP obtained by the two groups were high (Kappa=0.645, φ=0.646, both P<0.001). ②The effective layers of the sonographer group were 9 (8, 9) and the intelligent group was 8 (7, 9). The fault acquisition rate of the doctor group was higher than that of the intelligent group (78.72% vs 68.51%, χ 2=12.52, P=0.001). The consistency and correlation of the two groups in obtaining faults were media (Kappa=0.503, φ=0.521, both P<0.001). ③The time-consuming of the intelligent group was significantly lower than that of the sonographer group [1.50 (1.23, 1.75)s vs 26.94 (22.28, 30.48)s, Z=11.440, P<0.001]. Conclusions:This research model can quickly and accurately realize the extraction and tomography of the key plane of the normal fetal palate on the 11-13 + 6 week.
