Objective:To investigate the value of triglyceride glucose index(TyG)and monocyte to high-density lipoprotein choles-terol ratio(MHR)in the diagnosis of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD)complicated by heart fail-ure(HF),as well as the correlation of TyG and MHR with cardiac function in AECOPD patients.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 298 AECOPD patients who were admitted to The First Hospital of Lanzhou University from January 2020 to December 2021,and according to the clinical manifestation,B-type natriuretic peptide/N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide precursor,and echocardiography,the 298 AECOPD patients were divided into HF group with 127 patients and non-HF group with 171 patients.Related clinical indicators were compared between the two groups,and a regression analysis was used to identify the pos-sible risk factors for HF in AECOPD patients.The receiver operat-ing characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was used to investigate the value of TyG and MHR alone or in combination in the diagnosis of AECOPD complicated by HF,and a correlation analysis was used to investigate the correlation of TyG and MHR with cardiac function parameters(ejection fraction,ventricular wall thickness,cardiac chamber size,and valve regurgitation velocity)and pulmonary artery pressure in AECOPD patients.Results:The binary logistic regres-sion analysis showed that fasting blood glucose,absolute monocyte count,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),arrhythmia,TyG,and MHR were independent risk factors for HF in AECOPD patients,and the HF group had significantly higher levels of TyG and MHR than the non-HF group(P<0.001).TyG had an area under the ROC curve(AUC)of 0.805(95%CI=0.754-0.856,P<0.001)in the diagnosis of AECOPD complicated by HF,and MHR had an AUC of 0.762(95%CI=0.707-0.817,P<0.001),while TyG combined with MHR had an AUC of 0.870(95%CI=0.828-0.912,P<0.001).The correlation analysis showed that TyG was negatively correlated with left ventricular ejection fraction and left ventricular fractional shortening and was positively correlated with end-diastolic interven-tricular septal thickness,mitral regurgitation velocity,and left ventricular end-diastolic posterior wall thickness,while MHR was nega-tively correlated with left ventricular stroke volume and left ventricular fractional shortening and was positively correlated with end-diastolic interventricular septal thickness,right ventricular anteroposterior diameter,right ventricular superior-inferior diameter,right ventricular transverse diameter,tricuspid regurgitation velocity,left ventricular end-diastolic posterior wall thickness,and pulmonary artery pressure.Conclusion:Fasting blood glucose,absolute monocyte count,HDL-C,arrhythmia,TyG,and MHR are independent risk factors for AECOPD complicated by HF.Both TyG and MHR have a certain value in the diagnosis of HF,and the combination of TyG and MHR has a better efficacy than each indicator alone in the diagnosis of AECOPD complicated by HF.TyG is correlated with the cardiac function parameters such as left ventricular ejection fraction,ventricular wall thickness,and mitral regurgitation velocity in patients with AECOPD and may have a stronger correlation with the left ventricle;MHR is correlated with right ventricular chamber size,tricuspid regurgitation velocity,and pulmonary artery pressure and may have a stronger correlation with the right ventricle.

Objective:To discuss the suitable concentration of D-galactose(D-gal)and modeling period,and establish its induced aging-related cognitive dysfunction model in the mice,and perform a comprehensive evaluation.Methods:Fifty C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into control group and 100,200,400,and 800 mg·kg-1 D-gal groups,with 10 mice in each group.The mice in various D-gal groups were subcutaneously injected with the corresponding concentration of D-gal once daily;the mice in control group were injected with an equal volume of normal saline.The body mass and water consumption of the mice in various groups were monitored;forelimb grip strength test and experiment on the ability of pole climbing sports were used to evaluate the motor coordination ability of the mice in various groups;novel object recognition test,Y maze test,and Morris water maze test were used to evaluate the cognitive function of the mice in various groups;HE staining and Nissl staining were used to observe the pathomorphology of brain tissue of the mice in various groups;immunohistochemistry method was used to detect the expression of β-galactosidase(β-gal)protein in brain tissue of the mice in various groups;real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of interleukin(IL)-1β,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),IL-18,and IL-4 in hippocampus tissue of the mice in various groups;Western blotting method was used to detect the expression levels of β-gal,p53,and p16 proteins in hippocampus tissue of the mice in various groups.Results:The body mass growth trends of the mice in control group and various D-gal groups were consistent and there was no statistically significant difference(P>0.05),and there was no statistically significant difference in water consumption(P>0.05).After 8 weeks of subcutaneous injection of D-gal,compared with control group,the forelimb grip strength values of the mice in 200 and 400 mg·kg?1 D-gal groups were significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01);the pole-climbing time of the mice in 200 mg·kg?1 D-gal group was significantly prolonged(P<0.05);the recognition indexes of the mice in 200 and 400 mg·kg?1 D-gal groups were significantly decreased(P<0.01);the spontaneous alternation rate of the mice in 100,200,400,and 800 mg·kg?1 D-gal group was significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01),the escape latency was significantly increased(P<0.05).Spatial probe test showed that compared with control group,the escape latency of the mice in 200 mg·kg?1 D-gal group was significantly increased(P<0.05).The HE staining and Nissl staining results showed that compared with control group,the hippocampus neurons of the mice in 200 mg·kg-1 D-gal group were arranged disorderly,with obvious nuclear pyknosis,nuclear condensation,and abnormal morphology and structure,and the number of Nissl staining positive cells was significantly decreased.The immunohistochemistry results showed that compared with control group,the β-gal expressions in CA1 region,CA3 region,and cortex region of hippocampus tissue of the mice in 200 mg·kg?1 D-gal group were strongly positive.The RT-qPCR results showed that compared with control group,the expression levels of IL-1β,IL-18,and TNF-α mRNA in hippocampus tissue of the mice in 200 mg·kg?1 D-gal group were significantly increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and the expression level of IL-4 mRNA was significantly decreased(P<0.01).The Western blotting results showed that compared with control group,the expression levels of β-gal,p53,and p16 proteins in hippocampus tissue of the mice in 200 mg·kg?1 D-gal group were significantly increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion:The aging-related cognitive dysfunction model in the mice can be established by subcutaneous injection of 200 mg·kg?1 D-gal daily for 8 weeks.

Objective:To translate the English version of the Attitude Tool of Delirium (ATOD) into Chinese and test the reliability and validity of its application in Chinese nurses, and to provide an assessment tool for assessing nurses ′ attitudes towards delirium patients. Methods:After obtaining authorization from the source scale developer, the English version of the ATOD scale was translated, back-translated, expert-consulte, pre-surveyed and cross-culturally adapted according to the Brislin translation model. A questionnaire survey was conducted among 298 nurses with experience in caring for patients with delirium in three tertiary hospitals in Jiangsu Province using a convenience sampling method. The critical ratio value and correlation coefficient were used to analyze the scale items. Exploratory factor analysis was used to evaluate the structural validity of the scale, and experts were invited to evaluate the content validity of the scale. Cronbach α coefficient and test-retest reliability were used to evaluate the reliability of the scale. Results:The Chinese version of the ATOD scale contains 3 dimensions of cognitive attitudes, behavioral attitudes, and emotional attitudes toward patients with delirium, with a total of 23 entries. The Cronbach α coefficient for the entire scale was 0.896, with each dimension′s Cronbach α coefficient ranging from 0.614 to 0.912. The retest reliability of the scale was 0.868, with each dimension ′s retest reliability ranging from 0.603 to 0.927. Exploratory factor analysis extracted three eigenvalues with common factors greater than 1, and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 63.812%. Conclusions:The Chinese version of the ATOD scale has good reliability and validity, and can be used as an evaluation tool for evaluating nurses ′ attitudes towards delirium patients in China, so as to provide an effective basis for the formulation of corresponding interventions.

[Purpose]To analyze the changes in the incidence trend of thyroid cancer from 1990 to 2021,and to predict the future incidence from 2022 to 2030.[Methods]We collected data related to the incidence of thyroid cancer among Chinese residents from 1990 to 2021 in the Global Bur-den of Disease 2021(GBD 2021)study,analyzed the trend of thyroid cancer incidence using the Joinpoint regression model,and constructed a Bayesian age-period-cohort(BAPC)model to pre-dict the future incidence of thyroid cancer during the years of 2022-2030,based on the inci-dence data during the years of 1990-2021.[Results]From 1990 to 2021,the age-standardized incidence rate(ASIR)of thyroid cancer in China showed a fluctuating upward trend,and the ASIR of thyroid cancer in China in 2021 was 2.47/105,slightly lower than the global average(2.91/105)in the same year.In 2021,there were significant differences in new cases and incidence rate of thyroid cancer between men and women,with the incidence rate of women being higher than that of men.Among them,the number of new cases in women was 27 915,the crude incidence rate was 4.02/105,and the ASIR was 2.87/105;in men,the number of new cases was 20 189,the crude incidence rate was 2.77/105,and the ASIR was 2.11/105.Between 1990 and 2021,the increase in the number of new cases,the crude incidence rate,and the ASIR of men in China was much larger than that of women.The ASIR of thyroid cancer in both male and female showed an in-creasing trend,while the average annual percentage change(AAPC)in female was lower than that in male.There were significant gender differences in the age-specific incidence rates of thyroid cancer.In 2021,the incidence rate of women was higher than that of men in the Chinese population＜75 years old,whereas the incidence rate of men was higher than that of women in the population≥75 years old.From 1990 to 2021,the incidence rates of the Chinese male population aged 45～59 years old and ≥75 years old increased significantly;and the incidence rate of the Chinese fe-male popu-lation aged 50～74 years old increased significantly.Projections showed that the ASIR of overall,male and female standardized incidence rates in 2030 increased to 2.90/105,2.44/105 and 3.26/105 respectively.[Conclusion]The incidence rate of thyroid cancer in China is on the rise,with the incidence rate of women being higher than that of men,but the incidence rate of men has increased more than that of women,and the gap between the incidence rates is narrow-ing,and the peak age of incidence of men is mostly in the senior age group.

Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is a congenital heart disease characterized by mitral and（or）aortic valve stenosis or atresia，leading to the hypoplasia of the left ventricle，ascending aorta and aortic arch.If not treated in time，most children die within a few weeks after birth.Congenital complete atrioventricular block is a rare congenital cardiac conduction disorder.When combined with severe cardiac malformations，the mortality rate is extremely high.In this case，a 26-year-old pregnant woman with a history of 3 pregnancies and 1 delivery，had a natural conception with monochorionic diamniotic twins. At 22 +5 weeks of gestation，it was first found that one of the twins had hypoplastic left heart syndrome with congenital complete atrioventricular block through fetal echocardiography detection.This situation was extremely rare，and there was a lack of clinical guidelines on how to manage the pregnancy and determine the time of delivery time.In this case，prenatal ultrasound was used to monitor and comprehensively evaluate fetal cardiac function through the cerebroplacental ratio（CPR）combined with the cardiovascular overall performance score（CVPS）.Pregnancy safety management was implemented，and a cesarean section was performed at an elective time.Another healthy fetus did not suffer any adverse effects. This case provides strong evidence for ensuring the safety of healthy fetus and mother in perinatal period.It is also confirmed that CPR and CVPS combined evaluation of fetal cardiac function and pregnancy outcome will be more accurate and comprehensive.This method is simple，accurate，non-invasive，and can be used as an effective method for clinical evaluation of fetal cardiac function.

Objective:To analyze the time to reach full enteral feedings (TFEF) among preterm infants with gestational age (GA)<32 weeks admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of Chinese Neonatal Network (CHNN).Methods:This was a retrospective analysis based on the database from the CHNN 89 participating centers between January 1 st, 2019 and December 31 st, 2022. All 16 155 preterm infants with a GA <32 weeks and a birth weight <1 500 g, admitted to the NICU within 24 h after birth, hospitalization for at least 7 d and achieved full enteral feedings before discharge were included. According to the birth weight, these infants were divided into extremely low birth weight (ELBW) group and very low birth weight (VLBW) group. The practice characteristics of TFEF across different GA, the severity of neonatal admission, the NICU interventions before reaching full enteral feeding, and relevant neonatal diseases were described. Mann-Whitney U tests or Kruskal-Wallis H tests was used for comparison between groups. Results:Among the 16 155 preterm infants with a GA <32 weeks, 8 505 case (52.6%) were male. The TFEF in 3 374 cases of ELBW groups was 32 (22, 46) d, 351 cases (10.4%) with TFEF ≤2 weeks, 1 050 cases (31.1%) with TFEF >2-4 weeks, 964 cases (28.6%) with TFEF >4-6 weeks, and 1 009 cases (29.9%) with TFEF >6 weeks. The TFEF in 12 781 cases of VLBW group was 22 (15, 32) d, 439 cases (3.4%) with TFEF ≤1 week, 2 565 cases (20.1%) with TFEF >1-2 weeks, 5 526 cases (43.2%) with TFEF >2-4 weeks, and 4 251 cases (33.3%) with TFEF >4 weeks. The TFEF was 36(23, 52) d of 625 preterm infants at a GA ≤25 weeks and 20 (13, 28) d of 2 606 preterm infants at a GA 31 weeks. Inborn infants had a shorter TFEF than those outborn infants and the infants with breast-fed achieved shorter than formula and mixed feeding both in ELBW and VLBW groups (all P<0.001). The earlier enteral feeding started, the shorter TFEF will be both in ELBW and VLBW groups (both P<0.001). The TFEF of preterm infants who were treated before full enteral feeding like peripherally inserted central catheters, and blood transfusions and blood product providers were all longer than those who were not treated (all P<0.001). The TFEF of preterm infants with complications like hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus, necrotizing enterocolitis, late onset sepsis, severe retinopathy of prematurity and bronchopulmonary dysplasia were all longer than those without (all P<0.001). Conclusions:The distribution of TFEF in VLBW and ELBW has a large difference. The TFEF of preterm infants varies with different GA, treatment measures and complications. Further quality improvement is required to shorten TFEF.
