Objective:To observe the clinical effect of tracheal tube with an attached laryngeal pillow cushion(LPC)in the patients under general anesthesia,and to provide new methods for the preventing arytenoid dislocation during tracheal intubation.Methods:Forty-eight patients scheduled for elective oral tracheal intubation under general anesthesia and meeting the inclusion criteria were selected.Based on the head and neck positions,the patients were divided into supine without pillow(SWOP)group,supine with pillow(SWP)group,trendelenburg position(TP)group,and head side position(HSP)group,each group consisted of 12 patients.The patient in the following groups underwent two sequential treatments after tracheal intubation:intervention group(LPC-inflated)and control group(LPC uninflated,representing the current method of tracheal tube use).One patient in TP group and two patients in HSP group rminated the experiment,so a total of 45 patients were successfully included in this study.Electronic fiber laryngoscopy was used to observe and record the positional relationship between the endotracheal tube LPC and the posterior commissure arytenoid joint area under different head and neck positions after two treatments.The evaluation indicators were whether the tracheal tube was lifted from the posterior commissure arytenoid joint area and the degree of compression of the tracheal tube on the arytenoid joint.The incidence of tracheal tube lift-off and the percentage of compression degree on cricoarytenoid joint of the patients in various groups were calculated.Results:Within the same head and neck position group,compared with control group,the incidence of endotracheal tube lift-off of the patients in intervention group was significantly increased(P<0.05),and the percentage of compression degree of endotracheal tube on the arytenoid joint was significantly decreased(P<0.05).In control and intervention groups,there were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of endotracheal tube lift-off and the percentage of compression degree on arytenoid joint of the patients in various head and neck positions groups(P>0.05).Conclusion:Under the four head and neck positions,inflating the LPC of the tracheal tube can lift the tracheal tube from the posterior commissure arytenoid joint area,effectively relieving or reducing the compression and mechanical friction injuries to the arytenoid joint.

Against the backdrop of the in-depth advancement of the integration of medical treatment and disease prevention strategy and the increasingly prominent challenges in public health emergency response,it is urgently necessary to build a modern health emergency management system featuring"medical and preventive collaboration and integration".By sorting out the concept,component elements and functional positioning of the emergency management system in public hospitals,it explores the basic framework and key links of the emergency management system in public hospitals,and ensures the effective implementation of the system through multi-dimensional collaborative efforts.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between caregiver characteristics and clinical manifestations of patients with Alzheimer′s disease (AD) dementia.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study. A total of 167 patients with AD dementia and 167 matched caregivers from Chinese Imaging, Biomarkers, and Lifestyle study of Alzheimer′s Disease (CIBL) study between January 1 and December 31, 2023 were consecutively selected as the study subjects. The data such as gender, age, body max index (BMI), waist to hip ratio, educational years, combined chronic diseases, disease course and the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI), Activities of Daily Living (ADL), Mini-Nutritional Assessment (MNA), and Dietary Diversity Score (DDS) of the patients were collected. The data such as gender, educational years, the relationship with patients, and the Caregiver Burden Inventory (CBI) score in the caregivers were also evaluated. According to the gender of caregivers, the patients were divided into female caregiver group (108 cases) and male caregiver group (59 cases). The Spearman correlation and multiple linear regression analyses were used to assess the impact of the caregiver characteristics on the cognitive function, NPS, activities of daily living, and nutritional status of the patients with AD dementia.Results:Among the 167 patients with AD dementia, 80 cases were men, and 87 cases were women, with a mean age of (68.43±7.51) years. Among the 167 matched caregivers, 59 were spouse, 98 were offspring, and 10 were others (nanny or other relatives). The AD patients in the male caregiver group had lower BMI and MNA scores than those in female caregivers′ group [(23.35±3.70) vs (24.80±3.33) kg/m 2, 22.00 (20.00, 24.50) vs 24.00 (21.00, 26.00) points] (both P<0.05). The educational years of the caregivers was negatively related to the ADL score ( r=-0.196), and was positively related to the MNA score of the patients ( r=0.180) (both P<0.05); while the CBI score of the caregiver was positively related to the age ( r=0.180), NPI score ( r=0.568) and ADL scores ( r=0.702) in the patients, and it was negatively related to the BMI ( r=-0.163), MMSE score ( r=-0.499), MoCA score ( r=-0.491) and MNA scores ( r=-0.387) in the patients (all P<0.05). The shorter educational years and elevated CBI score were independent risk factors for the decline in the MMSE score ( β=0.310, 95% CI: 0.021-0.598; β=-0.225, 95% CI:-0.297--0.154) and MNA score ( β=0.204, 95% CI: 0.067-0.340; β=-0.082, 95% CI:-0.116--0.049), as well as the increase in the NPI score ( β=-0.628, 95% CI:-1.208--0.047; β=0.575, 95% CI: 0.431-0.718) and ADL score ( β=-0.519, 95% CI:-0.860--0.179; β=0.361, 95% CI: 0.277-0.445) in the patients with AD dementia (all P<0.001). Conclusions:A low educational level of caregivers and a heavy caregiver burden are associated with decreased cognitive function, worsening NPS, reduced ADL, and declining nutritional status in patients with AD dementia.

Objective:To investigate the effects of psychological state on the setup errors of radiotherapy for breast cancer patients.Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted. A total of 193 breast cancer patients in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College from October 2022 to May 2023 were selected. Radiotherapy was performed after fixation with an integrated multi-functional device for the head, chest and abdomen. Psychological status of patients was assessed by using 9-item health questionnaire (PHQ-9) and generalized anxiety disorder 7 self-rating scale (GAD-7) before first radiotherapy, the 10th radiotherapy and the last radiotherapy. Based on the results of the questionnaires, patients were divided into psychological problem (anxiety or depression) group and non-psychological problem group. The general data and setup errors of radiotherapy in both groups were compared.Results:All the 193 patients were female, with a median age of 47 years. There were 53 patients in psychological problem group and they underwent a total of 507 image-guided procedures, with setup errors [ M ( Q1, Q3)] of 0.18 (0.07, 0.33), 0.20 (0.10, 0.33) and 0.19 (0.09, 0.30) in the left-right (X), superior-inferior (Y), and anterior-posterior (Z) directions, respectively; the remaining 140 patients in non-psychological problem group underwent 1 240 image-guided procedures, with setup errors [ M ( Q1, Q3)]of 0.17 (0.08, 0.30), 0.20 (0.10, 0.30) and 0.18 (0.09, 0.28) in the X, Y, and Z directions, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( Z values were -3.78, -2.00; P < 0.001, P = 0.046). Conclusions:Anxiety and depression have an influence on the setup errors of radiotherapy in patients with breast cancer. In the processs of radiotherapy for breast cancer, it is important to pay attention to the psychological status of patients.

Anhedonia is a hallmark symptom of psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia and major depressive disorder, and it significantly affects treatment outcomes, prognosis, and patients' quality of life. Accurate assessment of anhedonia by medical staff can support the development and implementation of interventions. This review summarizes and analyzes the concept of anhedonia, common assessment tools for anhedonia, and comparisons among these tools, to provide a reference for medical staff in selecting appropriate instruments for evaluating anhedonia.
