Obesity has become a major global health challenge. The treatment of simple obesity patients with Chinese medicine compound based on evidence-based therapy has the advantages of good clinical efficacy and high safety. Chinese medicine compound can play the role of reducing inflammation, improving oxidative stress and regulating insulin resistance by regulating MAPK, AMPK, JAK/STAT, PI3K-Akt-mTOR, NF-κB, PPARγ/RXRα, STING-IRF3 and other related signaling pathways, which is characteristic of multi-component, multi-pathway, multi-target regulation. The research progress in the modulation of relevant signaling pathways by traditional Chinese medicine combinations for the treatment of simple obesity were reviewed, which provided a theoretical basis and research ideas for clinical practice.

The intervention and prevention of perioperative hypothermia is not only reflected in the technical level, but also reveals the important role of humanistic care in the whole intervention work. If perioperative patients have hypothermia, it is likely to cause a series of complications such as postoperative shivering, which seriously threatens the life safety of patients. Prevention and intervention was based on a comprehensive understanding of the causes and hazards of hypothermia, especially the impact on the lives of the elderly. Effective supervision was implemented in the whole process of operation, such as dynamic monitoring of vital signs including body temperature, followed by room temperature regulation, body temperature protection and preoperative and postoperative psychological nursing. At this time, the sense of responsibility, good humanistic care of medical staff are of positive significance to effectively prevent and reduce the probability of perioperative hypothermia and accelerate the postoperative rehabilitation of patients.

Objective:To analyze the research progress of family psychological education in schizophrenia population, in order to understand the elements and current situation of family psychological education application, and provide guidance for future research in this field.Methods:According to the basic idea of scoping review, research on family psychological education for schizophrenia patients was systematically searched in PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, and China Biology Medicine. The search period was from database establishment to March 15, 2023.Results:A total of 15 articles were included, including 11 completely randomized controlled trials, 2 semi-randomized controlled trials, and 2 follow-up studies. The content consisted of the evaluation and intervention forms of family psychological education, and the development and implementation of specific intervention plans.Conclusions:There is limited research on family psychological education for patients with schizophrenia, and the implementation efforts around the world are insufficient. In the future, relevant research can be conducted to develop cost-effective education programs that are in line with China's culture and environment, so that schizophrenia patients and their families can receive evidence-based treatment to improve patient and family outcomes.

Objective:To analyze the impact of implementing regular supervision and communication based on employee needs in the management of head nurses on improving the nursing practice environment, for reference for improving the nursing proctice environment.Methods:In December 2020 and January 2022, convenience sampling method was used to select 5 nursing unit nurses from a hospital which implemented regular supervision and communication based on employee needs(January to December 2021) as the research subjects. The survey was conducted using the Gallup Q12 questionnaire(Q12 questionnaire), which included 12 items from 4 dimensions: basic needs, head nurse support, team cooperation, and self growth. At the same time, a focus group interview method was made to interviews 10 survey subjects regarding their regular supervision and communication experiences.Results:A total of 165 survey subjects were included in this study, including 77 before and 88 after the implementation.The average total score of the Q12 questionnaire increased from 53.75 points before implementation of supervision communication to 56.96 points after implementation, with a statistically significant difference( P<0.05). The scores of the four dimensions of basic needs, head nurse support, team collaboration, and self growth increased from 4.59 points, 4.41 points, 4.50 points, and 4.45 points before implementation to 4.84 points, 4.69 points, 4.75 points, and 4.75 points after implementation, with statistical significances( P<0.05). The interview results showed that supervisory communication can create a humanistic care atmosphere, enhance team cohesion, enhance self-efficacy, improve work efficiency, solve problems in a timely manner, and improve nursing quality. Conclusions:Implementing regular supervision and communication based on employee needs can strengthen the connection between the head nurse and nurses, and enhance nurses′ recognition of basic needs, head nurse support, teamwork, and self growth. It was conducive to creating a good nursing practice environment, meeting the emotional and growth needs of nurses, and improving their job satisfaction.

Objective:To summarize the clinical feature of functional distant metastasis (DM) of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) and observe the efficacy of 131I treatment. Methods:Between August 2008 and January 2021, a total of 13 DTC patients (4 males, 9 females; age 26-75 years) with functional DM from Henan Provincial People′s Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical data of patients were collected, including pathological type, metastasis size, metastasis location, and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) before the first 131I treatment. Efficacy of 131I treatment in patients with functional DM-DTC was evaluated by response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) 1.1 and thyroglobulin (Tg). Complete remission (CR) and partial remission (PR) were considered as effective. Wilcoxon signed rank test was used to analyze the maximum diameter change of metastatic lesions before and after 131I treatment. Results:Among 13 DM-DTC patients, 8 were follicular thyroid cancer (FTC), 5 were papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Metastasis lesions were mainly located in lungs ( n=12) and bones ( n=6). There were 12 patients with maximum metastasis diameter ≥1 cm, and 3 patients with TSH≥30 mU/L before the first 131I treatment. Nine patients were assessed as PR by RECIST 1.1, 3 patients were assessed as CR by RECIST 1.1 and the value of Tg, and 1 patient was assessed as PR by the changing of Tg. The effective rate of 131I treatment for patients with functional DM-DTC was 13/13. The maximum metastasis diameter was significantly decreased after 131I treatment (2.6(1.6, 3.3) vs 1.2(0.1, 2.2) cm; z=-3.06, P=0.002). Conclusion:Patients with functional DM-DTC are characterized by high proportion of FTC and the maximum metastasis diameter ≥1 cm, low proportion of TSH ≥30 mU/L before the first 131I treatment, and high effective rate of 131I treatment.

Objective:To investigate the occurrence of inadequate specimens of thyroid nodule fine needle non-aspiration cytology and its possible influencing factors.Methods:Clinical data of 1571 patients with FNAC of 1638 thyroid nodules were analyzed retrospectively, according to whether the FNAC specimen were adequate or not, all cases were divided into adequate group and inadequate group. The related influencing factors on inadequate specimen were analyzed by univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression.Results:Inadequate specimens occurred in 301 of 1638 (18.4%) nodules. Logistic regression analysis showed that the influencing factors of overall specimen adequacy included operator experience ( P=0.00) , nodules size≤0.5 cm ( P=0.00) , eggshell calcification ( P=0.00) , and cystic ( P=0.00) . Excluding the impact of operator experience, the influencing factors of specimen adequacy included nodules size≤0.5 cm ( P=0.00) , eggshell calcification ( P=0.00) , and cystic ( P=0.00) . Conclusions:Operator experience, nodules size≤0.5 cm, cystic, together with eggshell calcification are influencing factors of specimen adequacy of fine needle non-aspiration cytology in thyroid nodules. For experienced operators, what restrict specimen adequacy is the limitation of FNAC technique. For inexperienced operators, what restrict specimen adequacy is operator’s experience.

Objective:To analyze the molecular epidemiological characteristics of measles virus (MV) in Beijing from 2015 to 2019, and to provide laboratory basis for measles elimination.Methods:Measles virus-positive throat swab samples were collected through the Beijing Measles Laboratory network from 2015 to 2019. After the viral nucleic acid was extracted, 450 nucleotide fragments of the C terminal of the N gene of MV were amplified by RT-PCR. Nucleotide sequencing was performed for the amplified products. The phylogenetic tree was constructed with the representative strains of WHO measles virus genotype D8 genotype reference strains in China and other countries. Genotype identification was conducted and the nucleotide and amino acid homology analysis was carried out. A descriptive analysis of measles cases with D8 and B3 genotypes was conducted.Results:From 2015 to 2019, the genotypes of 546 MV were identified in the city, including 531 of H1a genotype, five vaccine strains, one of B3 genotype, and nine of D8 genotype, among which eight were epidemic strains in 2019. The homology of indigenous H1a genotype MV nucleotide and amino acid was 91.5%-100.0% and 73.6%-100.0%.In 2019, all eight cases of D8 genotype measles were adults, with two being an outbreak and the remaining six sporadic cases.Conclusions:The imported D8 genotype had become the main MV genotype in Beijing in 2019. With the decrease of measles incidence in 2019, native genotype H1a was no longer dominant, while other different genotypes were imported, forming a mixed epidemic trend. It was suggested that in the elimination of measles in Beijing, efforts should be made not only to block the transmission of local measles virus, but also to prevent and control the import and continuous transmission of non-local genotype virus, so as to avoid the risk of establishing local transmission by gradually evolving into a dominant strain.

Objective:To observe the characteristics of the phagocytosis and bactericidal function of multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis(MDR- Mtb)-infected macrophage model, and the changes of the immune response and metabolic function in the process of phagocytosis and bactericidal function, aiming to provide reference for studying the role and mechanism of macrophages in the occurrence and development of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis(MDR-TB). Methods:We established MDR- Mtb and H37Rv-infected macrophage models, and used the colony-forming unit (CFU), Magnetic Luminex ? Assay and Cholesterol Assay kit to observe the effects on phagocytosis and bactericidal function, the secretion of Th1(IL-12/23 p40, IL-27 and TNF-α) and Th2 cytokines (IL-6 and IL-10) and cholesterol metabolism. The data were analyzed by SPSS25.0 software. The data were expressed as Mean± SD and analyzed by t test or F test. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:(1) After MDR- Mtb-infected macrophages, the intracellular CFU gradually increased and reached the highest at 24 h, while the extracellular CFU gradually decreased and reached the lowest at 24 h. The intracellular CFU at 48 h was lower than that at 24 h, while the extracellular CFU was higher than that at 24 h ( P<0.05). Both intracellular and extracellular CFU at 48 h were close to those at 4 h ( P>0.05). The intracellular CFU was lower than the H37Rv group at 8-48 h, while the extracellular CFU was higher than the H37Rv group ( P<0.05). (2) The level of IL-12/23 p40, IL-27, TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-10 of MDR-TB group were higher than those of blank group ( P<0.05), but the level of TNF-α and IL-6 at 24 h and 48 h were higher than that at 4 h ( P<0.05). IL-12/23 p40 and TNF-α at 48 h and IL-6 at 24 h were lower than those of the H37Rv group, while IL-27 at 48 h was higher than that of the H37Rv group ( P<0.05). (3) The levels of cholesterol of MDR-TB group at 24 h and 48 h were lower than those of 4 h and blank group ( P<0.05), but the level of cholesterol was similar to the H37Rv group at any time ( P>0.05). (4) TNF-α reached the highest when the intracellular CFU reached the highest at 24 h, and IL-6 reached the highest when the intracellular CFU decreased at 48 h. With the decreasing of cholesterol expression, the intracellular CFU increased and then decreased. Conclusions:MDR- Mtb could induce the phagocytosis and bactericidal function of macrophages, increase the expression of Th1 and Th2 cytokines and promote the utilization and consumption of cholesterol, but this function was weaker than that of H37Rv strain.
