Objective:To investigate the potential characteristic manifestations and application value of the Dynamic Visual Acuity Test（DVAT） in vestibular migraine（VM）. Methods:A total of 50 VM patients（case group） and 50 healthy subjects（control group） diagnosed at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University between November 1, 2023, and December 31, 2024, were enrolled. The case group underwent DVAT, video head impulse test（vHIT）, caloric test, and Dizziness Handicap Inventory（DHI） assessment, whereas the control group only received DVAT. Group-based analyses were conducted to examine the effect of age on Dynamic Visual Acuity Loss（DVALoss）, as well as the correlations of DVALoss with vestibular function tests and DHI scores. Results:DVALoss in the case group was significantly higher than that in the control group（P<0.001）. In both groups, age was significantly and positively correlated with DVALoss（P<0.001）. Within the case group, DVALoss was strongly and positively correlated with DHI scores（r=0.807, P<0.001）; it was negatively correlated with the vestibulo-ocular reflex（VOR） gain in vHIT, though without clinical significance, and showed no significant association with the caloric test. Age and DVALoss collectively accounted for 71.3% of the variance in DHI scores（R²=0.713）, with age exerting a relatively minor actual impact. Conclusion:DVAT can sensitively identify the core functional impairments of VM. DVALoss, as a direct functional reflection of the pathological mechanism of VM, is strongly correlated with DHI scores. Incorporating DVALoss into standardized assessments may provide an objective basis for the diagnosis and management of VM.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Bushen Huoxue enema in treating the rat model of kidney deficiency and blood stasis-thin endometrium （KDBS-TE） by transcriptome sequencing. MethodThe rat model of KDBS-TE was established by administration of tripterygium polyglycosides tablets combined with subcutaneous injection of adrenaline. The pathological changes of rat endometrium in each group were then observed. Three uterine tissue specimens from each of the blank group， model group， and Bushen Huoxue enema group were randomly selected for transcriptome sequencing. The differentially expressed circRNAs， lncRNAs， and miRNAs were screened， and the disease-related specific competitive endogenous RNA （ceRNA） regulatory network was constructed. Furthermore， the gene ontology （GO） functional annotation and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） pathway enrichment were performed for the mRNAs in the network. ResultCompared with the blank group， the model group showed endometrial dysplasia， decreased endometrial thickness and endometrial/total uterine wall thickness ratio （P<0.01）， and differential expression of 18 circRNAs， 410 lncRNAs， and 7 miRNAs. Compared with the model group， the enema and estradiol valerate groups showed improved endometrial morphology and increased endometrial thickness and ratio of endometrial to total uterine wall thickness （P<0.05）. In addition， 21 circRNAs， 518 lncRNAs， and 17 miRNAs were differentially expressed in the enema group. The disease-related specific circRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network composed of 629 nodes and 664 edges contained 2 circRNAs， 34 miRNAs， and 593 mRNAs. The lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network composed of 180 nodes and 212 edges contained 5 lncRNAs， 10 miRNAs， and 164 mRNAs. The mNRAs were mainly enriched in Hippo signaling pathway， autophagy-animal， axon guidance， etc. ConclusionBushen Huoxue enema can treat KDBS-TE in rats by regulating specific circRNAs， lncRNAs， and miRNAs in the uterus and the ceRNA network.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Aconiti Coreani Radix and Typhonii Rhizoma on the urinary metabolites of gerbils with stroke by non-targeted metabolomics technique， and then to clarify the mechanism of the two， as well as their similarities and differences. MethodTwenty-four gerbils were randomly divided into control group（CG）， model group（MG）， Aconiti Coreani Radix group（RA） and Typhonii Rhizoma group（RT）. Except for the CG， ischemic stroke model was constructed using right unilateral ligation of gerbil carotid artery in the remaining groups. Except for the CG and MG， rats in the other groups received whole powder suspension（0.586 mg·g^-1） was administered for 14 days. The neurological deficit in each group was scored by Longa scoring on days 0， 3， 7 and 14. After the end of administration， the serum， brain tissue and urine of gerbils in each group were collected， and the rate of cerebral infarction was detected by 2，3，5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride（TTC）， and the levels of interleukin（IL）-6， tumor necrosis factor（TNF）-α， malondialdehyde（MDA）， superoxide dismutase（SOD）， glutathione（GSH）， and nitric oxide（NO） in serum and brain tissue were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA）. The urine metabolomics of gerbils in each group was studied by ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-electrostatic field orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-Orbitrap-MS）， and the data were processed by multivariate statistical analysis， and differential metabolites were screened based on value of variable importance in the projection（VIP） of the first principal component>1 and t-test P<0.05. Metabolic pathway analysis of the screened differential metabolites was performed using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes（KEGG） database and Metaboanalyst 5.0. ResultCompared with the CG， the neurological deficit score was significantly increased in the MG（P<0.05）， compared with the MG， the neurological deficit scores in the RA and RT were significantly reduced after 7 d and 14 d（P<0.05）. Compared with the CG， the rate of cerebral infarction was significantly increased in the MG（P<0.05）， compared with the MG， the rates of cerebral infarction in the RA and RT were significantly reduced（P<0.05）. Compared with the CG， the levels of IL-6， TNF-α， and MDA in the serum and brain tissue of gerbils from the MG were significantly increased（P<0.05）， and the levels of SOD， GSH and NO were significantly reduced（P<0.05）. Compared with the MG， Aconiti Coreani Radix and Typhonii Rhizoma could down-regulate the levels of IL-6， TNF-α and MDA， and up-regulated the levels of SOD， GSH and NO. A total of 112 endogenous differential metabolites were screened by urine metabolomics， of which 16 and 26 metabolites were called back by Aconiti Coreani Radix and Typhonii Rhizoma， and could be used as potential biomarkers for both treatments in stroke gerbils， respectively. The results of the pathway analysis showed that both Aconiti Coreani Radix and Typhonii Rhizoma had regulatory effects on arginine and proline metabolism， pyrimidine metabolism， and aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis. In addition， Aconiti Coreani Radix could also regulate riboflavin metabolism， Typhonii Rhizoma could also regulate purine metabolism， glycine， serine and threonine metabolism， arachidonic acid metabolism， biosynthesis of pantothenate and coenzyme A， and β-alanine metabolism. ConclusionBoth Aconiti Coreani Radix and Typhonii Rhizoma have better therapeutic effects on stroke， with Aconiti Coreani Radix having stronger effects. From the metabolomics results， the main metabolic pathways regulated by Aconiti Coreani Radix involve amino acid metabolism， oxidative stress and so on， while Typhonii Rhizoma mainly involve amino acid metabolism， lipid metabolism， energy metabolism， etc.

Objective:To standardize the management of auditory hallucination symptoms in inpatients with mental illness and develop an expert consensus on the management of auditory hallucinations in hospitalized psychiatric patients.Methods:From March 2023 to July 2023, the Mental Health Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association focused on the key issues in the management of auditory hallucinations symptoms in inpatients with mental illness, based on clinical practice, using literature analysis combined with the work experience of mental health experts, and formed the first draft of the expert consensus on the management of auditory hallucinations in inpatients with mental illness (hereinafter referred to as the consensus).

The average importance value of each item was higher than 4.00, the variation coefficient of each item was less than 0.25. The Kendall harmony coefficient of the experts were 0.179, 0.195 and 0.198, respectively (all P<0.05). There were 15, 12, 12 experts in the first, seeond, third rounds of expert demonstration meeting. Finally, a consensus was reached on the recommendation of 4 parts, included auditory hallucination assessment, management format, symptom management implementation, and precautions. Conclusions:The consensus covers all parts of the management of auditory hallucination symptoms in hospitalized patients with mental disorders, which is practical and scientific. It is helpful to guide mental health professionals to standardize the management of auditory hallucination symptoms, improve the quality of nursing and ensure the safety of patients.

Inducing the degradation of KRAS represents a novel strategy to combat cancers with KRAS mutation. In this study, we identify ubiquitin-specific protease 2 (USP2) as a novel deubiquitinating enzyme of KRAS in multiple myeloma (MM). Specifically, we demonstrate that gambogic acid (GA) forms a covalent bond with the cysteine 284 residue of USP2 through an allosteric pocket, inhibiting its deubiquitinating activity. Inactivation or knockdown of USP2 leads to the degradation of KRAS, resulting in the suppression of MM cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo. Conversely, overexpressing USP2 stabilizes KRAS and partially abrogates GA-induced apoptosis in MM cells. Furthermore, elevated USP2 levels may be associated with poorer prognoses in MM patients. These findings highlight the potential of the USP2/KRAS axis as a therapeutic target in MM, suggesting that strategically inducing KRAS degradation via USP2 inhibition could be a promising approach for treating cancers with KRAS mutations.

Objective To establish a universally applicable logistic risk prediction model for diabetes mellitus type 2(T2DM)in the middle-aged and elderly populations based on the results of a Meta-analysis,and to validate and confirm the efficacy of the model using the follow-up data of medical check-ups of National Basic Public Health Service.Methods Cohort studies evaluating T2DM risks were identified in Chinese and English databases.The logistic model utilized Meta-combined effect values such as the odds ratio(OR)to derive β,the partial regression coefficient,of the logistic model.The Meta-combined incidence rate of T2DM was used to obtain the parameter α of the logistic model.Validation of the predictive performance of the model was conducted with the follow-up data of medical checkups of National Basic Public Health Service.The follow-up data came from a community health center in Chengdu and were collected between 2017 and 2022 from 7 602 individuals who did not have T2DM at their baseline medical checkups done at the community health center.This community health center was located in an urban-rural fringe area with a large population of middle-aged and elderly people.Results A total of 40 cohort studies were included and 10 items covered in the medical checkups of National Basic Public Health Service were identified in the Meta-analysis as statistically significant risk factors for T2DM,including age,central obesity,smoking,physical inactivity,impaired fasting glucose,a reduced level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),hypertension,body mass index(BMI),triglyceride glucose(TYG)index,and a family history of diabetes,with the OR values and 95% confidence interval(CI)being 1.04(1.03,1.05),1.55(1.29,1.88),1.36(1.11,1.66),1.26(1.07,1.49),3.93(2.94,5.24),1.14(1.06,1.23),1.47(1.34,1.61),1.11(1.05,1.18),2.15(1.75,2.62),and 1.66(1.55,1.78),respectively,and the combined β values being 0.039,0.438,0.307,0.231,1.369,0.131,0.385,0.104,0.765,and 0.507,respectively.A total of 37 studies reported the incidence rate,with the combined incidence being 0.08(0.07,0.09)and the parameter α being-2.442 for the logistic model.The logistic risk prediction model constructed based on Meta-analysis was externally validated with the data of 7 602 individuals who had medical checkups and were followed up for at least once.External validation results showed that the predictive model had an area under curve(AUC)of 0.794(0.771,0.816),accuracy of 74.5%,sensitivity of 71.0%,and specificity of 74.7% in the 7 602 individuals.Conclusion The T2DM risk prediction model based on Meta-analysis has good predictive performance and can be used as a practical tool for T2DM risk prediction in middle-aged and elderly populations.

Objective:We sought to investigate the clinical characteristics and risk factors of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) complicated by autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA).Methods:Retrospective anaysis.Three hundred fifteen consecutive patients with APS were enrolled at the Department of Rheumatology of Peking Union Medical College Hospital between May 2017 to May 2021, and their clinical manifestations[including initial symptoms, time interval between APS onset and diagnosis, systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE), thrombotic events, obstetric morbidity, and extra-criteria manifestations] and laboratory test results[including blood routine, antiphospholipid antibodies(aPLs), blood lipid profile, homocysteine, anti-nuclear antibody profile, immunoglobulin levels, and complement levels] were collected. Then, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed. Clinical features and risk factors were analyzed using univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis.Results:Among 315 APS patients, 37 cases (11.7%) were complicated by AIHA, and AIHA was the first manifestation or co-occurrence. The median time interval between APS onset and diagnosis was 12 months. The proportion of SLE in APS patients combined with AIHA was higher than that in APS patients without AIHA[62.2%(23/37) vs. 19.4%(54/278), P<0.001]. There was no significant difference in the proportions of thrombosis and pregnancy morbidity between the two groups. In terms of extra-criteria manifestations, APS patients with AIHA had a significantly ( P<0.05) greater risk of thrombocytopenia ( OR=6.19, 95% CI 2.81-13.65) and higher proportions of hypocomplementemia, a positive lupus anticoagulant (LA) result, double aPLs positivity[i.e., any two of the following antibodies were positive: LA, anticardilolipin antibody(aCL), and anti-β2 glycoprotein Ⅰ(β2GPⅠ)], and triple aPLs positivity (i.e., LA, aCL, and anti-β2GPⅠ antibodies were all positive). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that SLE ( OR=3.46,95% CI 1.60-7.48), thrombocytopenia ( OR=2.56,95% CI 1.15-5.67), and hypocomplementemia ( OR=4.29,95% CI 2.03-9.04) were independent risk factors for the complication of APS. In the primary APS subgroup, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that livedo reticularis ( OR=10.51,95%CI 1.06-103.78), thrombocytopenia ( OR=3.77, 95% CI 1.23-11.57), and hypocomplementemia ( OR=5.92,95% CI 1.95-17.95) were independent risk factors for the complication of APS. Conclusions:AIHA is not rare in APS patients; moreover, it occurs more frequently in APS secondary to SLE and is more likely to present with a variety of extra-criteria manifestations. Patients with AIHA should be promptly tested for antiphospholipid antibody profiles and alerted to the possibility of thrombotic events.

Objective:To understand the attitude of clinical nurses in a ClassⅢ Grade A hospital in Shanghai towards the implementation of the advance fixed scheduling model and to explore the influencing factors of whether nurses are willing to try the advance fixed scheduling model, so as to lay the foundation for later development in clinical practice.Methods:Mixed design was used to study. In the quantitative study, a cross-sectional survey of 1 326 nurses in a comprehensive Class Ⅲ Grade A hospital in Shanghai was conducted with a self-made questionnaire from September to October 2018 with cluster sampling method. And multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of the willingness of nurses to try the advance fixed scheduling model. A total of 1 326 questionnaires were distributed and 1 326 were effectively collected, with an effective recovery rate of 100.0%. In the qualitative study, 12 nurses from a comprehensive Class Ⅲ Grade A hospital in Shanghai from September to December 2018 were selected for semi-structured in-depth interviews with the purposive sampling method, so as to deeply understand the attitude and reasons of clinical nurses towards the implementation of the advance fixed scheduling model. And Colaizzi phenomenological analysis method was used to collate and analyze the interview data.Results:A total of 49.2% (653/1 326) of the nurses heard of the advance fixed scheduling model and 67.5% (896/1 326) of the nurses expressed their willingness to try the advance fixed scheduling model. The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that non-emergency department, whether they had children, whether they heard of the advance scheduling model and whether they believed that shifts had a great effect on life were influencing factors of the willingness of nurses to try the advance fixed scheduling model ( P<0.05) . The results of qualitative interviews showed that some nurses supported the advance fixed scheduling model and looked forward to a more reasonable arrangement of their study and life under the new work model, while some nurses feared change, and worried about their competence, fairness issues and non-support from their family members. Conclusions:Clinical nurses have a general attitude towards the advanced fixed scheduling model. In clinical practice in the future, some nurses who are willing to try can be recruited to implement the advance fixed scheduling model and their working status, satisfaction and quality of work can be dynamically monitored to provide an empirical basis for the new nursing manpower management model.

Objective:To select the relevant evidence of percutaneous pericardial drainage tube nursing and summarize the best evidence.Methods:Evidence-based questions were established based on PIPOST model. BMJ Best Clinical Practice, China Biology Medicine disc (CBM) , UpTodate, Cochrane Library, Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-based Health Care Database, China Guide Network, British Guide Network, National Guide Line Clearing House (NGC) , PubMed, EMbase, Evidence-based Medicine (EBM) , Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario (RNAO) , The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) , American Heart Association (AHA) , Chinese Journal Full-text Database and Wanfang Database were conducted computer retrieval. The search time was from the establishment of the database to December 31, 2020. Two researchers respectively evaluated the quality of the included literature and extracted data and summarized and summarized the evidence that met the standards.Results:Finally, 12 articles were included, including 1 evidence summary, 2 systematic reviews, 1 systematic assesment, 2 guidelines, 1 expert consensus and 5 case series studies. Finally, 11 pieces of evidence were formed, including 6 themes such as drainage tube selection, puncture wound nursing, drainage flow control, flushing and sealing of the tube, observation and recording points, extubation indications and care.Conclusions:This study summarizes the best evidence for percutaneous pericardial drainage tube nursing, which provides evidence-based basis for improving the quality of percutaneous pericardial drainage tube care.

Objective:To explore the knowledge and attitude of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in community residents in Shanghai and analyze the influencing factors.Methods:The residents in 16 communities in Shanghai were selected by convenient sampling and investigated from November 2018 to June 2019, and a total of 714 valid questionnaires were recovered. The residents' CPR knowledge and attitude were analyzed descriptively, and multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors.Results:The total score of CPR knowledge among the 714 community residents in Shanghai was (24.58±7.80) , with a passing rate of 36.13% (258/714) , and the passing rate of "artificial respiration knowledge" was the lowest, which was 38.66% (276/714) . The total score of the residents' CPR attitude was (40.95±5.18) , and the average scores of "attitude to learning CPR" and "attitude to implementing CPR" were (3.60±0.45) and (3.22±0.50) , respectively. Analysis of the influencing factors showed that gender, age, education level, conscious health status, whether they have heard of CPR, whether they have received CPR training, and whether they have encountered emergency rescue communities were the influencing factors to the community residents' CPR knowledge and attitude ( P < 0.05) . Conclusions:The overall CPR knowledge level of the community residents in Shanghai is relatively low, and the residents prefer to learn CPR and implement CPR for their relatives and friends, rather than strangers. Younger, better conscious health status, and having heard of CPR can help the residents improve their CPR knowledge and attitude, while women, higher education level, and residents who have encountered emergency rescue communities have better CPR knowledge. The CPR training has a positive effect on the residents' attitude to learning and implementing CPR. Future CPR training needs to increase the training intensity and duration, and help the residents to improve the level of CPR knowledge and attitude.
