Objective:To investigate the impact of body composition and inflammatory nutritional indicators on postoperative complications in patients with obstructive colorectal cancer,and to develop and validate a nomogram model.Methods:This is a retrospective case series study. The clinical data of 293 patients with obstructive colorectal cancer who were treated at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery,the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University,between January 2016 and January 2024,were retrospectively collected. The cohort included 182 males and 111 females,aged (65.0±12.1) years (range: 18 to 80 years). The dataset was randomly divided into a training group ( n=196) and a validation group ( n=97) with a 7∶3 ratio. Independent sample t test and multivariate logistic regression analysis were employed to identify independent risk factors associated with postoperative complications in patients with obstructive colorectal cancer. A preoperative nomogram model was subsequently developed for predicting postoperative complications,which was further validated using a validation cohort. Results:The training group comprised 119 males and 77 females,with 68 cases experiencing postoperative complications and 128 cases without complications. The validation group included 63 males and 34 females,with 30 cases experiencing postoperative complications and 67 cases without complications.Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis revealed that low skeletal muscle index ( OR=0.867,95% CI: 0.795 to 0.947),high visceral fat index ( OR=1.058,95% CI: 1.028 to 1.089),high systemic immune inflammation index ( OR=1.002, 95% CI: 1.000 to 1.003), low prognostic nutritional index ( OR=0.847,95% CI: 0.782 to 0.917),and preoperative anemia ( OR=2.714,95% CI: 1.161 to 6.344) were independent risk factors for postoperative complications (all P<0.05). A nomogram prediction model based on these five indicators was established. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for the prediction model was 0.878 (95% CI: 0.829 to 0.928) in the training group and 0.849 (95% CI:0.767 to 0.930) in the validation group. Conclusions:The preoperative nomogram model,which incorporates inflammatory and nutritional indicators,demonstrates a good accuracy in predicting postoperative complications for patients with obstructive colorectal cancer. This model can effectively assist in guiding treatment decisions.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of a wearable flexible patch ECG instrument in arrhythmia,the alarm situation during clinical application,patient satisfaction and safety.Methods A total of 1 443 subjects wore flexible patch ECG and conventional dynamic ECG(control)for 24 h to test the validity and consistency of arrhythmia diagnosis,and counted the alarm of remote ECG and the occurrence of related adverse events during the wearing of the instrument.Results There were 987 cases of arrhythmia detected by flexible patch ECG and 992 cases by conventional dynamic ECG.The total coincidence rate of arrhythmia diagnosis was 98.7%.The mean heart rate was measured by flexible patch ECG(75.4±11.4)times/min,conventional dynamic heart rate(71.5±12.1)times/min,the intra-group correlation coefficient(ICC)of 2 instruments was 0.892(95%CI:0.537-0.956),with good repeatability.The correct alarm rate of flexible patch ECG was 100%.The incidences of skin pruritus(0.28%vs.1.32%),skin allergy,redness and swelling(0.14%vs.0.69%)and electrode strip shedding(0 vs.0.28%)during wearing the flexible patch electrocardiogram were lower than those of the conventional holter electrocardiogram(P＜0.05).Conclusion The flexible patch ECG has few adverse reactions,high comfort,good safety and clinical applicability.

OBJECTIVES: Public service motivation refers to the idea of commitment to the public service, pursuit of the public interest, and the desire to perform work that is worthwhile to society. This study investigates how challenge stress and hindrance stress influence job performance among healthcare workers in Chinese public hospitals. It has also examined the mediating effect of public service motivation. METHODS: Data of 1594 healthcare workers were obtained from typical public hospitals in eastern, central, and western China. To test our hypotheses, we used descriptive statistical analysis, correlation analysis, structural equation modeling, and subgroup analysis to investigate the sample. RESULTS: Challenge stress and hindrance stress were strongly correlated among healthcare workers in Chinese public hospitals (β = 0.59; p < 0.001). Challenge stress was significantly positively associated with public service motivation (β = 0.14; p < 0.001) and job performance (β = 0.13; p < 0.001). Hindrance stress was significantly negatively associated with public service motivation (β = - 0.27; p < 0.001) and job performance (β = - 0.08; p < 0.05). Public service motivation was directly positively associated with job performance (β = 0.58; p < 0.001), and it indirectly mediated the association between job stress and job performance. CONCLUSIONS This study provides important empirical evidence on the effects of job stress and public service motivation on job performance among healthcare workers in Chinese public hospitals. Job performance may be raised by limiting hindrance stress, which provides moderate challenge stress and increases public service motivation.
