Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of lamb′s tripe extract and vitamin B 12 capsule (LTEVB 12C) on chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) at different locations (antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, corpus lesser curvature, and corpus greater curvature). Methods:From August 2011 to January 2013, 715 patients with CAG in a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial were enrolled from 16 tertiary first-class hospitals across the country, including the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University, Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University, the First Hospital of Jilin University, West China Hospital of Sichuan University, etc., there were 476 cases in the LTEVB 12C group and 239 cases in the placebo group. The patients of the LTEVB 12C group received LTEVB 12C, and the patients of placebo group received LTEVB 12C mimetic, all the medications were taken 3 capsules each time and 3 times a day after meals, and the treatment course of 2 groups were both 6 months. The efficacy evaluation criteria included the effective rate (a decrease of ≥1 in histopathological score compared with baseline after 6 months of treatment) and the reversal rate (a decrease of ≥ 2 in histopathological score compared with baseline after 6 months of treatment in the patients with moderate to severe CAG). The impact of lesion sites on the therapeutic effects of LTEVB 12C was analyzed by logistic regression analysis. The two-way unordered Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel chi-square test considering the center effect and Pearson chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:The effective rates of chronic inflammation at the antrum greater curvature and corpus greater curvature (23.3%, 110/473 vs. 13.0%, 31/239; 20.3%, 96/472 vs. 12.6%, 30/239), the effective rates of atrophy at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, corpus lesser curvature, and the corpus greater curvature (27.0%, 118/437 vs. 15.7%, 34/216; 29.2%, 126/432 vs. 18.5%, 38/205; 27.8%, 121/435 vs. 16.7%, 36/216; 32.5%, 127/391 vs. 19.8%, 37/187; 33.0%, 119/361 vs. 21.8%, 39/179), and the effective rates of intestinal metaplasia at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, and the corpus lesser curvature (45.0%, 112/249 vs. 29.8%, 31/104; 53.8%, 86/160 vs. 33.9%, 21/62; 45.8%, 103/225 vs. 24.0%, 25/104; 51.9%, 83/160 vs. 28.3%, 17/60) of the LTEVB 12C group were all higher than those of the placebo group, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=10.76, 6.39, 9.69, 7.91, 11.05, 9.62, 8.57, 5.20, 7.11, 12.45, and 6.73; all P<0.05). The reversal rates of chronic inflammation at the corpus lesser curvature and corpus greater curvature (5.2%, 12/231 vs. 0, 0/123; 4.7%, 8/170 vs. 0, 0/88), the reversal rates of atrophy at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, corpus lesser curvature, and the corpus greater curvature (6.8%, 22/323 vs. 1.3%, 2/151; 9.2%, 29/315 vs. 1.4%, 2/144; 14.2%, 38/267 vs. 2.5%, 3/121; 20.8%, 35/168 vs. 5.8%, 4/69), and the reversal rates of intestinal metaplasia at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, and the corpus lesser curvature (29.8%, 39/131 vs. 9.1%, 4/44; 41.0%, 32/78 vs. 12.5%, 3/24; 33.3%, 44/132 vs. 4.8%, 3/63; 50.0%, 37/74 vs. 8.7%, 2/23) of the LTEVB 12C group were all higher than those of the placebo group, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=6.58, 5.12, 5.60, 8.61, 11.43, 6.59, 7.30, 4.95, 15.92, 7.62; all P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the effective rates and reversal rates of active inflammation at different locations between the LTEVB 12C group and the placebo group (all P>0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis (taking the antrum lesser curvature as the reference) further confirmed that the reversal rates of chronic inflammation ( OR=0.22, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 0.07 to 0.67; OR=0.24, 95% CI: 0.07 to 0.80), atrophy ( OR=0.28, 95% CI: 0.16 to 0.49; OR=0.28, 95% CI: 0.16 to 0.49), and intestinal metaplasia ( OR=0.42, 95% CI: 0.24 to 0.77; OR=0.20, 95% CI: 0.08 to 0.52) at the corpus lesser curvature and corpus greater curvature were all higher than those at the antrum lesser curvature, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). There were no statistically siginificant differences in the reversal rates of the aforementioned pathological features between the antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, and the antrum lesser curvature (all P>0.05). Conclusion:LTEVB 12C can achieve good efficacy in the treatment of CAG, and the chronic inflammation, atrophy, and intestinal metaplasia at multiple locations are improved, especially at the corpus lesser curvature and the corpus greater curvature.

With the continuous intensification of aging, chronic diseases among the elderly have become a widely concerned public health issue. In the terminal stage, they often lose the ability to express their medical care wishes autonomously, leading to a disconnect between medical decision-making and the actual needs of the patients and increasing their physical and psychological suffering. With the rapid aging process in China, the incidence of chronic diseases in the elderly is continuously rising, which has become a serious public health problem. Studies have shown that advance care planning (ACP) has achieved remarkable results in maintaining the dignity of life for terminal chronic disease patients, improving patients’ quality of life, as well as alleviating the physical, mental, and economic burdens on their families. Therefore, the implementation of ACP is crucial for elderly patients with chronic diseases. This paper reviewed the concept of ACP, as well as application effects, challenges and limitations, and corresponding recommendations and countermeasures of ACP in elderly patients with chronic diseases, with a view to providing a solid theoretical and practical basis for the application of ACP in elderly population with chronic diseases in China.

Objective:To explore the association of gait speed and cognitive function of the community-dwelling elderly.Methods:From March to December 2021, a total of 1 172 Xinxiang community-dwelling elderly people were investigated by general information questionnaire, mini-mental state examination(MMSE), patient health questionnaire depression scale and 4.6 m gait test. The elderly were divided into five groups based on the quintile grouping of gait speed values, with Q1 group (≤0.76 m/s), Q2 group (0.77-0.88 m/s), Q3 group (0.89-0.98 m/s), Q4 group (0.99-1.11 m/s) and Q5 group (≥1.12 m/s). SPSS 25.0 statistical software was used for descriptive statistics, and binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the influence of gait speed and depression on cognitive impairment of the elderly.Results:The gait speed of community-dwelling elderly people was (0.92±0.22) m/s. The scores of MMSE in Q1-Q5 groups were (24.72±3.67), (26.63±2.90), (26.58±2.66), (27.01±2.45) and (27.18±2.35), respectively, and the cognitive function was significantly different among the five gait speed groups( F=27.92, P<0.05). The results of binary Logistics regression showed that compared with Q1 group, the OR value (95% CI) of cognitive impairment in Q2-Q5 group were 0.475 (0.253-0.893), 0.426 (0.219-0.828), 0.421(0.212-0.826) and 0.371(0.179-0.766), respectively, which indicated that fast walking speed was a protective factor for cognitive function. Old age ( OR=1.096, 95% CI=1.053-1.140) and depression ( OR=14.441, 95% CI=12.670-19.829) were risk factors of cognitive impairment. Conclusion:The gait speed is associated with cognitive function among community-dwelling elderly people, and faster gait speed is a protective factor for cognitive function.

Objective:To explore the status quo of ICU nurses' core competence in palliative care and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:This is a cross-sectional study. From January to March 2022, totally 148 ICU nurses from two ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Zhangjiakou were selected by convenience sampling and investigated with the General Information Questionnaire, Core Competence Questionnaire for Hospice Nurses and Chinese version of Death Attitude Profile-Revised. Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to explore the influencing factors of ICU nurses' core competence in palliative care. A total of 148 questionnaires were distributed in this study, and 143 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 96.62% (143/148) .Results:The total score of palliative care core competence of 143 ICU nurses was (77.28±16.95), and the top 2 dimensions with higher scores on the Chinese version of Death Attitude Profile-Revised were natural acceptance [ (4.40±0.34) points] and escape acceptance [ (3.34±0.49) points]. Pearson correlation analysis showed that palliative care core competency for ICU nurses was negatively correlated with fear of death ( r=-0.214; P<0.05), and positively correlated with both natural acceptance of death and escape from acceptance of death ( r=0.171, 0.221; P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that gender, age, professional title, whether they had participated in palliative care-related training, natural acceptance of death, and escape from acceptance of death were the main influencing factors of the core competence of ICU nurses in palliative care ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:ICU nurses have a high level of core competence in palliative care, and they hold a positive attitude towards death. Nursing managers should pay attention to cultivating ICU nurses' palliative care ability, carry out targeted palliative care training, and vigorously organize death continuing education, guide ICU nurses to establish a positive view of death, and improve their core competence in palliative care.

Objective:To examine the willingness of HIV non-occupational post-exposure prophylaxis (nPEP) among MSM and factors related were also assessed.Methods:The respondent-driven sampling method was used to recruit MSM for a face-to-face interview with a structured questionnaire,the sample size was estimated at 600 subjects. Demographic data, sexual behavior, awareness, and willingness regarding nPEP were collected. The factors related to willingness to nPEP were assessed using complex logistic regression.Results:A total of 14 rounds were recruited and 608 MSM subjects were included in the study. The average age was (41.6±11.0) years. 55.4% (95% CI: 49.4%-59.4%) were aware of nPEP, and 4.5% (95% CI: 2.9%-6.2%) have used its. 35.9% (95% CI: 31.1%-40.7%) expressed interest in taking nPEP if needed. Among the reasons for not being willing to take nPEP, 68.9% (244/354) were never heard of nPEP, and 24.6% (87/354) were a fluke mentality. The multivariate logistic analysis results showed that the willingness of nPEP awareness of MSM was related to the group aged 25-39 years old (a OR=1.80, 95% CI: 1.01-3.20), knowing a group of HIV prevention knowledge (a OR=2.43, 95% CI: 1.52-3.90), group of consistent condom use in anal sex in the past half of year (a OR=1.76, 95% CI: 1.11-2.79). Conclusions:The use rate of nPEP among MSM in Beijing was low, and the willingness to use in the future also needs to be improved. The training of social organizations should be strengthened to improve the role of peer education in promoting nPEP.
