Objective:To analyze the risk factors of anxiety and depression in prostate cancer patients after castration, and establish a risk prediction model.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 60 prostate cancer patients treated in Xi′an People′s Hospital from January 2019 to January 2022. The patients were divided into a training group ( n=42) and a validation group ( n=18) at a ratio of 7∶3. The patients received surgical castration and medical castration. One month after castration, the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) were used to evaluate the anxiety symptoms and depression levels of the patients, respectively. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify the risk factors for negative emotions in prostate cancer patients after castration, and a risk prediction model was established. Results:In the training group, 19 patients had a SAS score ≥50, and 21 patients had an SDS score ≥50. Based on these scores, the training group was divided into a negative emotion group ( n=19) and an emotional stability group ( n=23). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that marital status, castration scheme, and postoperative Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score were independent influencing factors for negative emotions in prostate cancer patients after castration ( OR=3.589, 3.364, 5.912, all P<0.05). In both the training group and the validation group, the risk scores of patients with negative emotions were significantly higher than those with emotional stability. In the training group, the area under the curve (AUC) of the risk prediction model for predicting negative emotions was 0.747, with a specificity of 71.02% and a sensitivity of 66.11%; in the validation group, the AUC, specificity, and sensitivity were 0.761, 66.59%, and 76.21%, respectively. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed that χ 2 was 4.285 6, P value was 0.830, and the c-index was 0.773(0.692-0.854). The calibration curve showed that the predicted curve was basically consistent with the actual curve, indicating that the prediction model had good discriminative ability and accuracy. Decision curve analysis showed that the model had high clinical significance. Conclusions:Marital status, castration scheme, and postoperative VAS score are important factors affecting anxiety and depression in prostate cancer patients after castration, and the regression model can successfully predict the risk of negative emotions.

An increasing number of studies have shown that there is a close relationship between Alzheimer's disease(AD)and diabetes mellitus(DM).Traditional Chinese medicine holds that"kidney yin deficiency"is the common pathogenesis of these two diseases,while modern medicine believes that their pathogenesis involves abnormal aggregation of amyloid proteins,insulin deficiency and resistance,inflammatory response,oxidative stress,and autophagy,among others.The well-known traditional Chinese medicine formula Liuwei Dihuang Pills plays a significant role in the treatment of these two diseases with the same therapeutic approach.Therefore,this article will explore the connection between Liuwei Dihuang Pills and the treatment of AD and DM from different aspects;analyze the common etiology and pathogenesis of AD and DM,and explain the mechanism of prevention and treatment of Liuwei Dihuang Pills,with the aim of providing new ideas and methods for the integrated traditional and Western medicine prevention and treatment of AD and DM in the future.

Objective:To investigate the current situation and influencing factors of clinical nurses'clinical decision-making ability,and provide a reference and evidence for improving and enhancing the correct clinical decision-making ability of clinical nurses.Methods:A total of 300 clinical nurses in Shaanxi Province were selected as the research subjects by using the convenience sampling method.The General Information Questionnaire,Clinical Decision-Making Scale,and Comprehensive Decision-Making Style Scale were used to conduct the investigation and study.The influencing factors of clinical nurses'clinical decision-making ability were analyzed by using single-factor analysis and multivariate linear regression.Results:The total score of clinical nurses'clinical decision-making ability was(163.85±13.78)points,reaching the high-level standard of clinical decision-making ability(146.68-200.00)points.The results of Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that there was a significant positive correlation between the total score and the score of each dimension of clinical decision-making ability and the score of rational decision-making style(P<0.05).The score of the dimension of searching for information or new information was only negatively correlated with the score of intuitive-impulsive decision-making style(P<0.05).Avoidant decision-making style was negatively correlated with the scores of seeking information or new information,clarifying goals and values,the total score of clinical decision-making ability,and the dimensions of finding alternative solutions(P<0.05).The results of multiple linear regression showed that rational decision-making style can positively affect clinical nurses'clinical decision-making ability,while avoidance decision-making style can negatively affect it.Conclusion:The clinical nurses'clinical decision-making ability has been maintained at a relatively constant high level,and it is greatly influenced by rational and avoidant decision-making styles.Medical managers need to organize targeted training activities and other measures to promote the construction of clinical nurses'rational decision-making style and minimize the influence of avoidant decision-making style,thus improving the clinical nurses'clinical decision-making ability.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Tiaogan Lifei Decoction on the level of symptom control in patients with bronchial asthma (asthma) treated with moderate and high dosage inhaled glucocorticoids (ICS).Methods:Randomized double-blind placebo controlled prospective study was used. Totally 90 patients with asthma (liver lung disharmony, wind phlegm blocking collateral syndrome) using moderate and high dosage ICS who met the inclusion criteria from January 2020 to December 2021 in Chaoyang District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Beijing were divided into two groups according to random number table method, with 45 cases in each group. On the basis of using the original dosage of ICS, the treatment group used Tiaogan Lifei Decoction, while the control group used Tiaogan Lifei Decoction simulant. The course of treatment was 12 weeks. TCM symptom score of both group before and after the treatment was detected; asthma control test (ACT) was used to assess the effects of asthma on the patients; St George's Hospital Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) was used to assess patients' quality of life; the peak expiratory flow rate (PEF) was measured with a peak expiratory flow meter. 2 ml of venous blood was collected for eosinophil (EOS) detection, and the serum allergen specific IgE level was determined by ELISA. The adverse reactions were observed during the treatment and the clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results:During the test, 3 cases and 2 cases in the treatment group and control group lost prevention respectively. 3 cases in the treatment group and 6 cases in the control group withdrew from the trial because of the aggravation of symptoms and the need to increase the dosage of ICS. The total effective rate in the treatment group was 78.6% (33/42), and that in the control group was 55.8% (24/43), with statistical significance ( χ2=4.98, P=0.026). After treatment, the scores of daily activities, early awakening, control and total scores in the treatment group were higher than those in the control group ( t values were 1.76, 1.99, 2.00, 2.69, respectively, P<0.01 or P<0.05); after treatment, the scores of cough, chest tightness, active wheezing, upset, pharyngeal itch and total score in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group ( t values were -5.89, -6.01, -5.66, -4.27, -6.67, -9.05, respectively, P<0.01); SGRQ score in the treatment group was lower than that of the control group ( t=-7.19, P<0.01). No serious adverse reactions occurred during treatment in the two groups. Conclusion:Tiaogan Lifei Decoction is helpful to improve the symptom control level of asthma patients who are using ICS, and effectively improve the quality of life of patients with asthma of liver lung disharmony and wind phlegm obstructing collaterals syndrome.

Objective:To investigate the role of miR-144-3p in cisplatin resistance of bladder cancer.Methods:Bladder cancer T24 cells were cultured in vitro and divided into blank group (untreated), mimetic control group, miR-144-3p mimetic transfection group, inhibitor control group, and miR-144-3p inhibitor transfection group. Real time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to verify the transfection effect, methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) method was used to detect the survival rate of cells treated with cisplatin in each group, and Western blot was used to detect the expression of the target protein. The targeting relationship between miR-144-3p and nuclear factor E2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) was validated using dual fluorescence reporter gene experiments. Furthermore, Nrf2 was knocked out in each group of cells, and the mRNA and protein expression levels of HO-1, Bcl-2, and Caspase-3 were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot in each group of cells.Results:Compared with the control group, bladder cancer cells in the miR-144-3p mimetic transfection group were more sensitive to cisplatin, while the miR-144-3p inhibitor transfection group had the opposite effect; The miR-144-3p simulant transfection group can effectively inhibit the mRNA and protein expression level of Nrf2 in bladder cancer cells (all P<0.05), while the miR-144-3p inhibitor transfection group can up regulate the mRNA and protein level of Nrf2 (all P<0.05). The miR-144-3p mimetic transfection group showed significant downregulation of mRNA and protein expression of HO-1 and Bcl-2, while the expression of Caspase-3 was upregulated (all P<0.05), while the miR-144-3p inhibitor transfection group showed the opposite results. The luciferase results confirmed that miR 144 3p can directly bind to the 3′- UTR region of Nrf2, reducing the mRNA level of Nrf2. When Nrf2 was knocked out, whether miR-144-3p mimetic transfection group or miR-144-3p inhibitor transfection group, the mRNA and protein expression levels of HO-1, Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 did not change significantly, and miR-144-3p lost the ability to regulate the cisplatin sensitivity of bladder cancer cells. Conclusions:miR-144-3p targets to regulate the sensitivity of Nrf2 to cisplatin in bladder cancer, and miR-144-3p is expected to become a new target for the treatment of cisplatin resistant or refractory bladder cancer.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of combined use of Guben-Tiaoping Decoction on the success rate of stepwise treatment and life quality of asthma patients. Methods:A total of 76 patients with asthma in remission stage who were using ICS were divided into treatment group (38 cases) and control group(38 cases) according to random number table. Both groups were treated with ICS reduction based on the 2017 Gina Protocol. The treatment group was treated with Guben-Tiaoping Decoction for 12 weeks. The number of patients who were able to successfully complete the stepwise treatment after the end of the trial was calculated, the relevant indexes of Asthma Control Test (ACT), TCM Syndrome score, St. George’s respiratory questionnaire (SGRQ) and lung function were collected before and after treatment. Result:After 12 weeks’ treatment, the success rate of stepwise was 89.5% (34/38) in the treatment group and 78.9% (30/38) in the control group ( χ2=14.862, P=0.001). Meanwhile, the ACT score of the treatment group were better than those in the control group (Daytime symptoms t=-3.860, P=0.001, Dyspnea t=-2.007, P=0.40, Night waking t=-2.732, P=0.009, Reliever needed for symptoms t=-2.262, P=0.031, Control situation t=-6.994, P=0.001, Total Score t=-9.562, P=0.001). The score of TCM Syndrome in the treatment group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P=0.001); PEF in treatment group [(6.92 ± 1.71) L vs. (5.84 ± 1.22) L; t=-2.880, P=0.005] was significantly better than that of the control group. Conclusion:Guben-Tiaoping Decoction is helpful to improve the success rate of ICS stepwise treatment and the life quality of patients.

Objective: To investigate oral health related quality of life and associated factors of adolescents between 12 and 15 years old, and to provide countermeasures and suggestions for oral health promotion of adolescents. Methods: This cross-sectional study recruited 3 840 adolescents aged 12-15 through multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method. The oral clinical examination and oral health questionnaire were conducted. Descriptive analysis, non-parametric testing and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the oral health-related quality of life and associated factors. Results: Oral problems showed moderate to severe impact on quality of life,especially on eating (27.1%). Ordinal Logistic regression analysis showed that low sugar intake frequency, few teeth with gingival bleeding, no history of dental pain in the past 12 months,no history of tooth injuries, and administrative region of residence (Nanhai, Shunde) were associated with higher oral health-related quality of life,(OR=0.6-0.8，P<0.05). Conclusion The oral health-related quality of life of adolescents in Foshan was slightly better than the average national level. It is recommended to accurately formulate and ensure the full implementation of oral public health measures based on the comprehensive analysis of the local area, and combine various efforts to strengthen education on reducing excessive intake of sugar, prevent gingival bleeding, relieve and treat toothache in time, pay attention to adolescents with histories of dental trauma, and update the concepts of receiving oral health examination for the adolescents themselves, parents and teachers, and help adolescents develop the habit of regular oral examinations.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of recombinant human granulocyte macrophage stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) combined with R-CHOP regimen in treatment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).Methods:The clinical data of 39 patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL treated with rhGM-CSF combined with R-CHOP regimen, and 39 patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL treated with R-CHOP regimen in Naval Medical University (Changhai Hospital) from February 2017 to November 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The total response rate (ORR), remission rate (CR) rate, overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and adverse reactions of both groups were compared.Results:In rhGM-CSF combined with R-CHOP regimen group and R-CHOP regimen group, ORR was 87.2% (34/39) and 82.1% (32/39), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 0.394, P = 0.53); CR rate was 71.8% (28/39) and 56.4% (22/39), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 2.006, P = 0.157). Until the last follow up on September 19, 2020, 32 patients survived and 7 patients died in rhGM-CSF combined with R-CHOP regimen group, of which 1 case died of bowel cancer, and the primary disease was still in CR. In the R-CHOP regimen group, 32 survived and 7 died. The 2-year OS rates of the two groups were 82.5% and 73.9%, respectively ( χ2 = 0.038, P = 0.845); the 2-year PFS rates of the two groups were 67.1% and 55.2%, respectively ( χ2 = 0.457, P = 0.499). Subgroup analysis results showed that there were no statistically significant differences in CR rates among germinal center B-cell (GCB) and non-GCB subgroups, Lugano stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ and Lugano stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ subgroups, aged <60 years and aged ≥60 years subgroups in rhGM-CSF combined with R-CHOP regimen group and R-CHOP regimen group (all P > 0.05). The major adverse reactions included bone marrow suppression and its inducible infections. There were no significant differences in the incidence of grade 3-4 hematological adverse reactions and infections between the two groups (all P > 0.05). All patients safely went through bone marrow suppression after support treatments without treatment-related deaths. Conclusions:rhGM-CSF combined with R-CHOP regimen is safe and effective in treatment of newly diagnosed DLBCL.
