Objective:To construct a nursing quality evaluation indicator system for pulse indicator continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) monitoring and provide a basis for evaluating the nursing quality of PiCCO monitoring.Methods:Using Donabedian′s "structure-process-result" three-dimensional quality evaluation model as the theoretical framework, the nursing quality evaluation indicator system for PiCCO was established through literature search, Delphi expert correspondence, and hierarchical analysis during the period May to August 2023.Results:Of the 22 experts, 6 were male and 16 were female, aged (46.59 ± 4.34) years. The return rates of the questionnaires of the 2 rounds of expert correspondence were both 100%, the coefficients of expert authority were both 0.945, and the Kendall coordination coefficients were 0.045-0.186 ( χ2 values were 2.00-221.46, all P<0.05) and 0.045-0.132 ( χ2 values were 2.00-82.16, all P<0.05), respectively. The finalized nursing quality evaluation indicator system for PiCCO included 3 primary indicators, 7 secondary indicators, and 36 tertiary indicators. Conclusions:The nursing quality evaluation indicator system for PiCCO is practical and scientific, which can provide reference for PiCCO monitoring nursing quality evaluation.

With the extended survival period of breast cancer patients and the increasing health demands, the concomitant diseases of breast cancer have gradually attracted the attention of both doctors and patients, and it is imperative to conduct comprehensive management of these diseases, in which the general practitioners, as the more comprehensive and complex medical talents, have not yet played their due roles. In this article, we report two cases of comprehensive management of concomitant diseases of breast cancer through collaboration of general practitioners and specialists (integrated general and specialist care). The role and function of general practitioners in this process were deeply analyzed, and the establishment of a consultation-liaison general practice model to further promote the role of integrated general and specialist care in integrated oncology care was advocated.

Immune checkpoint inhibitor-related pneumonitis(CIP)is a relatively common immune-related adverse event.The current treatment for CIP mainly relies on glucocorticoids,with 70％～80％of patients being controlled by conventional glucocorticoid therapy.However,steroid-unresponsive CIP is often se-vere and can be life-threatening.There is no standard treatment protocol for steroid-unresponsive CIP,highlighting a significant unmet clinical need.This paper reviews the diagnosis,treatment progress,and exploratory research of steroid-unresponsive CIP to provide evidence-based guidelines and directions for clinical and translational research.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the expression levels of serum microRNA(miR-138-5p)and long non-coding RNA(LncRNA)NEAT1 in patients with colorectal cancer(CRC)and clinical pathological features and prognosis.Methods:Totally 163 CRC patients admitted to our hospital from May 2019 to August 2021 were used as the CRC group,and were assigned into a survival group(n=104)and a death group(n=47)based on 3-year prognosis.Another 175 patients with benign colorectal lesions were as the control group.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to measure serum miR-138-5p and LncRNA NEAT1.K-M curve was used to analyze the relationship between serum miR-138-5p and LncRNA NEAT1 expression and prognosis of CRC.Multivariate Cox re-gression was used to analyze the influencing factors of prognosis of CRC.ROC was used to analyze the predictive value of serum miR-138-5p and LncRNA NEAT1 for prognosis of CRC.Results:Compared with the control group,the serum miR-138-5p in the CRC group was lower(t=12.802,P<0.05),and the LncRNA NEAT1 was higher(t=13.752,P<0.05).The serum miR-138-5p was related to the differentiation degree,T stage,and N stage of CRC patients(χ2=4.780,6.557,8499,P<0.05);and the serum LncRNA NEAT1 was associated with T stage and N stage in CRC patients(χ2=8.352,9.642,P<0.05).There were obvious differences between the survival group and the death group in T stage and N stage(χ2=6.801,7.580,P<0.05),and the serum miR-138-5p in the survival group was lower than that in the death group(t=8.290,P<0.05),while the serum LncRNA NEAT1 was higher than that in the death group(t=10.008,P<0.05).K-M curve showed that patients with high miR-138-5p expression had a higher 3-year survival rate than those with low miR-138-5p expression(Log Rank χ2=6.661,P=0.010);and the 3-year survival rate of patients with high ex-pression of LncRNA NEAT1 was lower than that of patients with low expression of LncRNA NEAT1(Log Rank χ2=10.620,P=0.001).Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that T stage(HR=3.516),N stage(HR=2.983),serum miR-138-5p(HR=0.927),and LncRNA NEAT1(HR=1.659)were all factors affecting the prognosis of CRC(P<0.05).ROC results showed that the AUC for predicting poor prognosis in CRC by combining serum miR-138-5p and LncRNA NEAT1 was 0.716,which was obviously higher than that predicted by miR-138-5p(Z=3.173,P=0.002)and LncRNA NEAT1(Z=3.253,P=0.001)alone.Conclusion:Serum miR-138-5p is lower and LncRNA NEAT1 is higher in CRC pa-tients.Moreover,the levels of both are closely related to the clinical pathological features and prognosis.

Objective:To observe the effects of Sitting Baduanjin combined with Sacubitril/Valsartan on cardiopulmonary function,exercise capacity and vascular endothelial function in patients with coronary heart disease after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 86 patients with coronary heart disease who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)at Zhangzhou Third Hospital from April 2023 to August 2024,among these patients,43 were treated with a combination of Sacubitril/Valsartan and Sitting Baduanjin,forming the study group,the other 43 patients,treated with sacubitril/valsartan alone,were randomly assigned in a 1∶1 ratio to form the control group.The cardiopulmonary function[cardiac index(CI),left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),The ratio of forced expiratory volume to forced vital capacity(FEV/FVC),maximum ventilation volume(MVV)].Exercise capacity[6-minute walking test distance(6MWD),maximum motion load(MWL),peak oxygen uptake(VO2peak)],vascular endothelial function[endothelin-1(ET-1),vascular endothelium-dependent diastolic function(FMD),vascular pseudohematologic factor(vWF)]and the occurrence of adverse cardiovascular events between the two groups were compared.Results:CI,LVEF,FEV/FVC and MVV of the study group at 2 months after intervention were higher than those of the control group(P＜0.05).6MWD,MWL,VO2peak of the study group at 2 months after intervention were higher than those of the control group(P＜0.05).ET-1,vWF of the study group at 2 months after intervention were lower than those of the control group,FMD was higher than that of the control group(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the total incidence of adverse cardiovascular events between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Sitting Baduanjin combined with Sacubitril/Valsartan can effectively improve the cardiopulmonary function,exercise capacity and vascular endothelial function of patients with coronary heart disease after PCI.

The success of"New Medical Sciences"in higher education requires effective tools in evalua-ting students'performance in courses.Previously,we reported a teamwork(T),critique(C)and ap-preciation(A)(TCA)ideological and political model,a teaching model widely applied in Basic Medical courses.TCA is an abbreviation derived from Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle in Biochemistry as an analogy for nurturing the abilities of thinking and teamwork(T),critique(C)and appreciation(A),which hope-fully could provide students with moral norms for cognition,science and life.This paper further explores the tools to assess the educational outcomes of the TCA model,by which teachers can collect feedback and reflect on teaching quality and effectiveness.Addressing the challenges of individual differences in large classes,fragmented learning feedback,and the difficulty of measuring meta-cognition in educational evaluation,this study employs strategies of value-added assessment,matrix assessment and norm-transfer-able assessment to evaluate the TCA abilities from the aspects of thinking quality,thinking creativity,co-operation ability,iterative thinking,dialectical thinking and job responsibility.By modifying/using 18 e-valuation tools in Education and Psychology,we have established a rubric system composed of 30 primary indicators(with 11 newly designed,10 partly modified and 9 directly adopted),along with 49 secondary indicators and 98 tertiary indicators to enhance the feasibility of the evaluation process.This rubric sys-tem was applied to Biochemistry teaching among the five-year-program undergraduates at Air Force Medi-cal University.Specifically,thinking and teamwork are evaluated by creative works from"the magic bio-chemical-circle",while critiques are assessed in large classes under the guidance of basic and clinical teachers,coupled with appreciation measured by job responsibility in a task-driven virtual reality(VR)project.The results indicate that Biochemistry teaching not only accumulates knowledge in students,but also achieves the goals in nurturing values and cognition.The inclusion of creative performance evalua-tion,cooperative learning and clinical case studies,can enhance students'interpersonal skills,coopera-tion,quality of thinking,creative thinking,iterative thinking and dialectical thinking to varying degrees.TCA-based Biochemistry teaching has a long-lasting impact on character education,and is capable of in-ducing positive long-term changes in students'cognition and lifestyle.Taken together,with the help of this rubric system,teachers can promptly acknowledge the effectiveness of their teaching,thereby facilita-ting their teaching strategies.

Objective To assess the efficacy of clear lens extraction combined with extended depth of focus(EDOF)intraocular lens(IOL)implantation in enhancing visual quality and concurrently opening peripheral angle structures in patients diagnosed with primary angle closure suspect(PACS)and presbyopia.Methods A total of 80 patients with PACS,presbyopia,and transparent lenses were enrolled and divided into two groups based on the type of implanted lens:a control group(n=46)and an experimental group(n=34).The control group underwent clear lens extraction followed by monofocal intraocular lens implantation,while the experimental group underwent clear lens extraction followed by extended depth of focus(EDOF)intraocular lens implantation.Preoperative and postoperative evaluations at 3 months included visual acuity,intraocular pressure,anterior segment structure,defocus curve,and Catquest 9SF-CN questionnaire scores.Adverse events were recorded to assess safety.Results Regarding the angular structure,after 3 months of treatment,results indicated significant increases in central ante-rior chamber depth,angle opening distance at 750 μ m,angle recess area at 750 μ m,trabecular-iris space area at 750 μm,and trabecular-iris angle at 750 μm in both groups compared to preoperative values(all P<0.01).However,no significant differences were observed between the two groups(all P>0.05).For the defocusing curve,visual acuity in the experimental group improved from+1.0 D to-4.0 D after 3 months of treatment(all P<0.05),while the control group showed improvements at+0.5 D,-0.5 D,-1.0 D,-2.0 D,-3.0 D,-3.5 D,and-4.0 D(all P<0.05).Postoperatively at 3 months,the experimental group exhibited superior visual acuity to the control group at-1.0 D to-4.0 D(all P<0.05).According to the Catquest 9SF-CN scale,scores in both groups significantly im-proved after 3 months of treatment(P<0.01),with the experimental group scoring higher than the control group(P<0.01).During the study,transient intraocular pressure elevation occurred in 7 patients(3 in the control group and 4 in the experimental group),but no serious adverse reactions were reported in either group.Conclusions In patients with pseudoexfoliation glaucoma combined with presbyopia,significant improvements in angle structures were observed following clear lens extraction.The implantation of an EDOF IOL notably enhanced postoperative visual quality compared to monofocal IOLs.

Ischemic stroke is the most common type of stroke,characterized by a complex pathophysiology in which inflammato-ry responses play a pivotal role,significantly affecting patient outcomes.Following a stroke,the disruption of the blood-brain barrier facilitates interactions between the central nervous system(CNS)and the peripheral immune system,triggering a cascade of inflammatory responses that exacerbate ischemic brain injury.Microglia(MG),as the primary immune cells of the CNS,are highly sensitive to cerebral ischemia and interact with various peripheral immune cells to regulate the inflammatory response.For instance,neutrophils participate in early MG-mediated in-flammatory responses through the release of neutrophil extracel-lular traps;T cells interact with MG,exerting bidirectional effects on the spread of brain inflammation and tissue repair.Additionally,other immune cells such as B cells,monocytes/macrophages,and dendritic cells contribute to these processes through complex immune regulatory networks,influencing MG's inflammatory functions and its capacity for tissue repair.This re-view delves into the interaction mechanisms between MG and pe-ripheral immune cells,providing novel insights into the dynamic changes of post-stroke inflammation and potential directions for precision therapies aimed at modulating immune balance.

Objective:To explore the efficacy of free medial sural artery perforator flap transplantation in repairing electrical burn wounds on hands and feet.Methods:This study was a retrospective observational study. From November 2017 to September 2023, 21 male patients aged 28-51 years with electrical burns on hands and feet who met the inclusion criteria were admitted to Tongren Hospital of Wuhan University & Wuhan Third Hospital. There were 23 wounds, of which 14 were on the hand and 9 on the foot; 9 were associated with exposed tendon injury, 6 were associated with bone exposure or necrosis, and 8 were associated with joint injury. The wound area after debridement was 4.0 cm×2.5 cm-14.0 cm×10.0 cm. For 2 relatively wide wounds and 2 adjacent fingers/toes wounds, the lobulated flaps centered on 2 medial sural artery perforators were designed and incised for repair. For other wounds, medial sural artery perforator flaps were designed and incised. The flap area was 5.0 cm×3.0 cm-16.0 cm×11.0 cm. The arteriovenous vessels of flap were anastomosed end-to-end with the arteriovenous vessels of the recipient area; the cutaneous nerves of 10 flaps were anastomosed with the nerves in hand wound, and the sural nerve bundle was cut to repair one digital nerve defect. The donor site wound was closed with tension-relieving sutures. Postoperative flap survival and wound healing at donor site were recorded. During follow-up, subsequent flap revision was recorded, the texture and appearance of the flap, as well as the scarring and functional recovery of the donor area of the lower leg, were observed. At the last follow-up, the recovery of hand flap sensation was observed, the satisfaction of patients with the treatment effect of each operation was investigated by using Likert scale, the hand function of the affected hand in patients with hand wounds was evaluated by using the trial standards for evaluation of partial function of upper extremity by the Hand Surgery Society of Chinese Medical Association, and the weight-bearing walking ability of the affected foot in patients with foot wounds was evaluated by Holden walking ability grading.Results:There was a slight necrosis at the distal end of one flap after surgery, which healed after dressing change. All 23 flaps survived. The sutures of the two donor areas were poorly healed due to high local tension, and the second sutures were performed after debridement and drainage, and the healing was good. The wounds of the remaining 21 donor sites healed well. Follow-up of 6-26 months after surgery showed that 3 flaps were slightly bloated, and the appearance was improved after flap reconstruction; the other flaps did not undergo subsequent revision. All flaps were soft and similar to the surrounding tissue morphology. Linear scar remained in the donor site of the lower leg, and walking function was normal. At the last follow-up, the protective sensation of the hand flap was restored; the patients were very satisfied with the results of 21 surgeries and were relatively satisfied with the results of 2 surgeries. Among the 14 patients with hand wounds, the affected hand function was rated as excellent in 10 cases, very good in 3 cases, and acceptable in one case, and the weight-bearing walking ability of the affected foot in 7 patients with foot wounds was all rated as grade Ⅴ.Conclusions:The medial sural artery perforator flap has the advantages of reliable blood supply, appropriate thickness and smoothness, and can be lobulated or cut according to the shape of the wound. The flap demonstrates superior aesthetic and functional restoration in repairing electrical burn wounds on hands and feet, achieving high patient satisfaction with the surgical treatment effect.
