Objective: To evaluate the effect of bioactive peptides combined with probiotics on serum uric acid (SUA) in patients with hyperuricemia (HUA), so as to provide the evidence for prevention and treatment of HUA. Methods: The patients with HUA aged 18 to 65 years were selected and randomly divided into an intervention group and a control group. The patients in the intervention group received bioactive peptides combined with probiotics for 28 days at a dose of 3 g/d, while the patients in the control group received an equal dose of placebos. Demographic information, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure and blood lipid were collected through questionnaire surveys, physical examination and laboratory tests. SUA levels were detected before and after 14 days and 28 days of interventions. The differences of SUA levels between the two groups were compared using generalized estimation equation. Results: Totally 108 patients with HUA were recruited, including 54 patients in the intervention group and 53 patients in the control group (1 dropout). Before interventions, there were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, course of HUA, exercise duration, frequency of alcohol consumption, frequency of meat broth consumption, BMI, prevalence of hypertension and prevalence of dyslipidemia between the two groups (all P>0.05). After 14 days of interventions, the SUA levels of the patients in the intervention group decreased by 3.00 μmol/L, while those in the control group increased by 7.00 μmol/L. After 28 days of interventions, the SUA levels of the patients in the intervention group and the control group decreased by 26.00 μmol/L and 16.00 μmol/L, respectively. However, there was no statistically significant interaction between the intervention time and group (both P>0.05). Subgroup analysis showed that after 28 days of interventions, the decrease in SUA levels in the patients aged 55 years and older and without hypertension in the intervention group was greater than those in the control group (both P<0.05). Conclusions Bioactive peptides combined with probiotics showed no significant difference in reducing SUA levels in patients with HUA compared to the control group. The effect was more significant for patients aged 55 years and older and without hypertension.

Objective:To design a vest-type breast dressing bra and explore its application effect in the external application of traditional Chinese medicine therapy for patients with granulomatous lobular mastitis(GLM).Methods:A randomized controlled study was conducted, utilizing convenience sampling to select female patients with 122 GLM who underwent their first topical medication treatment in the Breast Department of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between January and May 2023. The patients were divided into a control group and an observation group, with 61 patients in each, using a random number table. Following medication application, patients in the control group used a regular sports bra to secure the medication, while patients in the observation group used a custom-designed vest-style breast medication bra for the same purpose. Three hours after the intervention, comparisons were made between the two groups in terms of the incidence of medication detachment, medication displacement, clothing contamination, patient satisfaction, and safety.Results:Both groups of patients completed the study. The age of the observation group was (32.18 ± 5.50) years old, while the age of the control group was (33.66 ± 5.20) years old. Three hours after the intervention, the incidence of medication detachment, medication displacement, clothing contamination in the observation group were 3.28% (2/61), 6.56% (4/61), and 8.20% (5/61), which were lower than those in the control group with 18.03% (11/61), 26.23% (16/61), and 67.21% (41/61), respectively. The differences were statistically significant ( χ2=6.97, 8.61, 45.23; all P<0.05). The satisfaction level of patients towards the bra in the observation group was (4.43 ± 0.85) points, higher than that of the control group (3.85 ± 1.08) points, with a statistically significant difference ( t=3.30, P<0.05). The incidence rates of skin allergic reactions were 3.28%(2/61) and 4.92%(3/61) in the observation group and the control group, respectively, with no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The vest-type breast dressing bra designed in this study can properly secure the medicinal paste, reduce the rate of medication detachment, medication displacement, clothing contamination, and enhance patient satisfaction. It facilitates the external application of traditional Chinese medicine for patients with GLM and is worthy of clinical promotion.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective:To explore the current status of self-disgust in female breast cancer patients and analyze its influencing factors, so as to provide reference for clinical intervention.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 283 female breast cancer patients who were hospitalized in Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from June to July 2024 for the study. A questionnaire survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, Questionnaire for the Assessment of Self-Disgust (QASD), Family Avoidance of Communication about Cancer Scale, Body Image Scale, and the Chinese version of the Female Self-Advocacy in Cancer Survivorship. Factors influencing patients' self-disgust were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance and multiple linear regression.Results:The total score of QASD in female breast cancer patients was (33.77±7.64). Education level, sexual dysfunction after breast cancer, family avoidance of communication about cancer, body image and self-advocacy were influencing factors of self-disgust in female breast cancer patients ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Self-disgust of female patients with breast cancer is at a medium to high level. It is recommended that nurses pay attention to the psychological status of patients with low level of education and sexual dysfunction after the disease, implement targeted psychological interventions to improve the family avoidance of communication about cancer and body image, and increase the awareness of self-advocacy, thus reducing the risk of self-disgust in female breast cancer patients.

Objective:To explore the effects of the 4C nursing model on pregnant women at advanced maternal age.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select 180 pregnant women at advanced maternal age who were receiving regular antenatal care and delivery at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from July 2022 to January 2024. The participants were randomly divided into the control group ( n=90) and the observation group ( n=90) using a random number table. The control group received routine care, while the observation group received the 4C nursing model in addition to routine care. Compare the scores of the Pregnancy Pressure Scale (PPS) and the Maternal Self-Management Scale between two groups of pregnant women at advanced maternal age before and after intervention.. Results:After the intervention, the scores for each dimension of the PPS in the observation group were lower than those in the control group. The scores for each dimension of the Maternal Self-Management Scale in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The 4C nursing model can reduce pregnancy-related stress and improve self-management ability in pregnant women at advanced maternal age.

Objective:To explore the relationship between sleep quality and depression among fertile women, and provide a scientific reference for protecting the mental health of fertile women.Methods:The study included 12 518 fertile women who were 15 to 49 years old from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University and Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Qujing in Yunnan Province from January 2019 to November 2019. Sleep quality was collected by using self-reported questionnaires, and depression was evaluated by using the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale. We used logistic regression to analyze the relationship between sleep quality and depression after controlling for other factors.Results:Among 12 518 fertile women, 3197 had poor sleep quality which accounted for 25.54% (95% CI=24.77%-26.30%). The detection rate of depression was 55.59% (6959/12 518; 95% CI=54.72%-56.46%). The detection rate of depression of the poor sleep quality group [75.40% (2410/3197)] was significantly higher than that of the good sleep quality group [48.80% (4549/9321), P<0.001]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after controlling for basic demographic characteristics, health status, lifestyle habits and other factors, depression was still associated with poor sleep quality (a OR=3.28, 95% CI=2.99-3.60; P<0.001). Conclusion:The problem of depression and sleep quality on fertile women cannot be ignored, and sleep quality was associated with depression significantly which suggested that it was necessary to keep good life style, improve sleep quality and promote mental health.
