Objective:To evaluate the impact of short-term exposure to daytime heatwaves, nighttime heatwaves, and compound heatwaves on the risk of road traffic mortality and calculate the attributable mortality burden.Methods:This study collected road traffic mortality data from the Disease Surveillance System in Guangdong, Hunan, Zhejiang, Yunnan, and Jilin Provinces from 2013 to 2018. A time-stratified case-crossover design was used in this study, with the death date for each case serving as the case day. Control days were selected from the same year, month, and day of the week as the case day. A conditional logistic regression model was employed to estimate the cumulative associations of short-term exposure to daytime heatwaves, nighttime heatwaves, and compound heatwaves on the risk of road traffic mortality (lag 0-1 day) and to calculate the attributable fractions (AF).Results:Compared to non-heatwave days, the excess risk ( ER) of road traffic mortality on daytime heatwave days, nighttime heatwave days, and compound heatwave days was 5.3% (95% CI: 0.5%-10.2%), 4.9% (95% CI: 0.5%-9.4%) and 7.5% (95% CI: 2.3%- 12.9%), with corresponding AF of 5.0% (95% CI: 0.5%-9.3%), 4.7% (95% CI: 0.5%-8.6%), and 6.9% (95% CI: 2.3%-11.4%), respectively. Stratified analysis showed that the risk of traffic mortalities caused by daytime heatwaves was higher in females ( ER=15.7%, 95% CI: 5.8%-26.5%) than in males ( ER=1.8%, 95% CI: -3.6%-7.4%). Elderly individuals over 64 years old ( ER=10.9%, 95% CI: 0.3%- 22.6%) had a higher risk of road traffic mortalities from compound heatwaves than those under 45 years old ( ER=2.6%, 95% CI: -5.4%-11.2%). The risk of road traffic injury mortality from motor vehicle accidents caused by compound heatwaves ( ER=16.6%, 95% CI:2.4%-32.7%) was higher than that from non-motor vehicle accidents ( ER=5.7%, 95% CI:0.1%-11.5%). Conclusions:Short-term exposure to daytime heatwaves, nighttime heatwaves, and compound heatwaves was associated with an increased risk of road traffic mortality, with the strongest association observed for compound heatwaves. The mortality burden attributable to compound heatwaves was higher than that for daytime and nighttime heatwaves. Heatwaves were more significantly associated with road traffic mortality risk among females, elderly individuals over 64 years old, and motor vehicle accidents.

Objective:Based on the business reengineering theory, to construct the emergency nursing process of acute massive hemoptysis in hospital and explore the effect of it.Methods:According to the order of hospitalization, 200 patients with acute massive hemoptysis admitted to the emergency department in Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital Affilated to Tongji University from January to June in 2020 were selected as the control group, and the original treatment process was adopted. Two hundred patients admitted to the emergency department of this hospital from July to December in 2020 were selected as the experimental group, and the reconstructed in-hospital emergency nursing process for acute massive hemoptysis was applied. In both groups, the researchers recorded the time spent in each sub-process by using the in-hospital treatment time record of acute massive hemoptysis and collected the clinical outcomes of patients through electronic cases. The time-consuming, treatment efficiency and patient outcome of each link of the treatment process in the backyard of the two groups were compared.Results:Finally, 192 patients were enrolled in the control group and the experimental group. The median time from admission to intravenous use of hemostatic drugs and from admission to endovascular treatment in the experimental group were 21.50(20.00, 22.50) and 82.50(79.50, 84.50) min, which were lower than those in the control group which spent 40.87(37.06, 44.43) and 135.50(123.50, 147.00) min, and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant ( Z=-16.84, 16.63, both P<0.01). The incidence of asphyxia caused by acute massive hemoptysis in the experimental group was 4.2%(8/192), which was lower than that in the control group, which was 13.0%(25/192) . There was a statistically significant difference in the incidence of asphyxia between the two groups( χ2=9.58, P<0.01). Conclusions:The emergency nursing process of acute massive hemoptysis effectively shortens the time of in-hospital treatment of acute massive hemoptysis, further promotes the seamless connection of multiple links of in-hospital treatment of acute massive hemoptysis, and improves the overall efficiency of in-hospital treatment of patients with acute massive hemoptysis.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic and grading value of combination of 68Ga -1, 4, 7, 10-tetraazacyclododecane-1, 4, 7, 10-tetraacetic acid- D-Phe1-Tyr3-Thr8-octreotide ( 68Ga-DOTA-TATE) and 18F-flurodeoxyglucose ( 18F-FDG) dual probes in multi-parameter positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm (PNEN). Methods:From April 9th, 2020 to February 24th, 2022, in Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, the clinical data and the imaging of 68Ga-DOTA-TATE PET/MR and 18F-FDG PET/MR of 59 patients with pancreatic tumors (27 male, 32 female, aged 22 to 75 years old(51.8±13.3) years old), confirmed by surgical or biopsy pathology were retrospectively analyzed. All the cases were divided into PNEN group (42 cases) and non-PNEN group (17 cases) according to pathological results. Among which 39 patients with PNET were further divided into grade 1 group (G1 group, 27 cases) and grade 2 group (G2 group, 12 cases). Non-zero parameters were selected via the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression approach, and a logistic regression model was established by combination of the selected features and the corresponding non-zero coefficients. The measurement data with non-normal distribution were compared by Mann-Whitney U test. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were used to detemine the optimal cut off value to assess the dignostic efficiency. Results:Compared with those of non-PNEN group, the parameters of PNEN group increased, which included maximum standard uptake value of 68Ga-DOTA-TATE(SUV Gmax, 46.70 (22.37, 76.35) vs. 7.12 (4.75, 8.64)), mean standard uptake value of 68Ga-DOTA-TATE(SUV Gmean, 25.50 (13.18, 43.90) vs. 3.65 (2.89, 4.69)), peak standard uptake value of 68Ga-DOTA-TATE (SUV Gpeak, 27.17 (12.39, 46.97) vs. 5.46 (4.12, 6.56)), total lesion somatostatin receptor (SSR) expression (TLSRE, 68.21 (32.52, 440.96) vs. 26.02 (14.87, 69.57)), SUV Gmax/maximum standard uptake value of 18F-FDG (SUV Fmax, 12.71 (3.80, 21.70) vs. 1.10 (0.52, 2.35)), tumor to background ratio of 68Ga-DOTA-TATE (TBR G, 13.31 (5.54, 22.38) vs. 1.57 (1.31, 2.66)), tumor to liver ratio of 68Ga-DOTA-TATE(T/L G, 6.54 (2.90, 9.63) vs. 0.74 (0.65, 0.94)), tumor to spleen ratio of 68Ga-DOTA-TATE (T/S G, 2.36 (0.97, 3.70) vs. 0.25 (0.23, 0.38)), tumor to mediastinum ratio of 68Ga-DOTA-TATE (T/M G, 104.41 (34.03, 206.52) vs. 16.00 (12.87, 21.46)), SUV Gmax/minimum apparent diffusion coeffecient (ADC min, 55.14 (22.50, 96.37) vs. 6.76 (4.39, 12.76)) and SUV Gmean/ADC min (34.57 (13.47, 55.13) vs. 3.57 (2.46, 6.81)), and the differences were statistically significant ( U=28.00, 25.00, 32.00, 198.00, 54.00, 31.00, 28.00, 19.00, 10.00, 56.00 and 44.00, all P<0.01). The area under the curve (AUC) and diagnostic accuracy of dual-probe PET/MR imaging in the diagnosis of PNEN and non-PNEN were 0.941 and 96.6%, respectively. The AUC and diagnostic accuracy of model Y 1 in the diagnosis of PNEN and non-PNEN were 0.959 and 96.6%, respectively. There was no significant difference in AUC between model Y 1 and dual-probe PET/MR imaging in PNEN diagnosis ( P>0.05), however combining model Y 1 could improve the accuracy of PNEN diagnosis (100.0%). Compared with those of PNET G1 group, the parameters of G2 Group were higher, which included the maximum diameter of tumor (2.69 cm (2.08 cm, 5.00 cm) vs. 1.50 cm (1.20 cm, 2.50 cm)), metabolic tumor volume (MTV, 7.56 mL (4.45 mL, 53.57 mL) vs. 2.16 mL (1.22 mL, 5.48 mL)), total lesion glycolysis (TLG, 22.24 (11.95, 189.85) vs. 3.81 (2.11, 18.67)), tumor to background ratio of 18F-FDG (TBR F, 2.94 (2.00, 3.96) vs. 1.48 (1.29, 3.72)), tumor to liver ratio of 18F-FDG (T/L F, 2.32 (1.35, 2.98) vs. 1.08 (0.90, 2.17)) and SSR-expressing tumor volume (SRETV, 8.00 (3.06, 40.00) vs. 1.91 (0.95, 4.88)), and the differences were statistically significant ( U=66.00、66.00、77.00、93.00、90.00、65.50, all P<0.05). The maximum diameter of tumor was the best single parameter for the differential diagnosis of PNET G2 and G1, AUC was 0.796 and the cutoff value was 1.90 cm. The model Y 2, which combined the maximum diameter of tumor and TBR G had an AUC of 0.835 for the differential diagnosis of PNET G2 and G1. There was no significant difference in AUC between the maximum diameter of tumor and model Y 2 ( P>0.05). However the combination of the maximum diameter of tumor and model Y 2 could improve the accuracy of differential diagnosis of PNET G2 and G1 (94.87%). Conclusion:The combination of multi-parameter of 68Ga-DOTA-TATE and dual-probe 18F-FDG PET/MR imaging can improve the diagnostic and grading accuracy of PNEN, which may be helpful in the selection of clinical treatment for patients.
