Objective To analyze the current quality of treatment for hospitalized cancer patients in Bei-jing,identify major issues in treatment practices,and propose improvements.Methods Nine hospitals in Beijing were selected for examination.Expert on-site interviews and medical record sampling were conducted.The"Bei-jing Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment Quality Control Checklist"was used to assess the hardware,management,anti-cancer drug therapy,radiation therapy,and surgical treatment during cancer treatment at these hospitals from January to October 2023.The relevant problems were analyzed.Results Among the nine hospitals,two(22.2%)were equipped with laminar flow rooms,and three(33.3%)had intravenous drug preparation centers.In terms of institutional management,seven hospitals(77.8%)had standardized anti-cancer drug prescription authority management,eight(88.9%)had complete emergency plans,and five(55.6%)had oncology specialist pharmacists.Regarding anti-cancer drug therapy,the areas with higher completion rates included pathology diag-nosis support(97.6%),routine pre-treatment examinations(96.3%),adverse reaction evaluation(92.7%),discharge summaries(95.1%),and admission records(91.5%).However,the accuracy of tumor staging before treatment(70.7%)and the evaluation of therapeutic efficacy after drug treatment(76.9%)needed improvement.The oncology specialty significantly outperformed the non-oncology specialty in terms of the accuracy rate of TNM staging(86.0%vs.46.9%,P<0.001),the completeness of informed consent forms(100%vs.68.8%,P<0.001),the completeness of drug indication evaluation(96.0%vs.78.1%,P=0.025),the completeness of admission medical history records(98.0%vs.81.3%,P=0.008),the rationality of drug dosage(96.0%vs.75.0%,P=0.005),the rationality of drug infusion time(100%vs.62.5%,P<0.001),and the rationality of the order of drug infusion(100%vs.87.5%,P=0.010).Although the quality of radiation therapy was high,the subsequent evaluation of therapeutic efficacy(39.3%)requires enhancement.In surgical treatment,the preoper-ative pathology diagnosis support rate(78.1%)and the accuracy of tumor staging(37.5%)were relatively low,indicating issues with incomplete preoperative evaluation and the absence of multidisciplinary discussions.Conclusions There remains significant room for improvement in the quality of cancer treatment in China.It is recommended to standardize tumor staging assessment processes,strengthen entry assessments for non-oncology departments,promote the implementation of multidisciplinary treatment models,and establish a multi-department collaborative management model.Continuous monitoring of cancer diagnosis and treatment quality indicators is es-sential to promote ongoing improvements in cancer treatment quality.

Objective:To carry out evidence-based practice for postoperative pain management in patients undergoing hepatectomy based on the knowledge to action (KTA) framework, and to evaluate the application effects of the best evidence.Methods:A systematic review of databases on pain management for hepatectomy patients both domestically and internationally was conducted to form the best evidence. This was combined with the Postoperative pain assessment and nursing in adults group standard to form quality review indicators. From November to December 2023, a baseline review was conducted with 21 healthcare staff and 31 patients undergoing laparoscopic hepatectomy at the Hepatobiliary Surgery Department of Shandong Provincial Hospital. The barriers to evidence-based practice were analyzed, and the best evidence application and transformation actions were implemented. A re-evaluation was conducted from January to March 2024 after applying the evidence with 31 laparoscopic hepatectomy patients and 21 healthcare staff. The execution rates of the review indicators, patient pain levels, satisfaction with pain control, and patient comfort were compared before and after evidence application. Results:After applying the evidence, the execution rate of the review indicators by healthcare staff increased to 19.35%-100.00%. Post-intervention, the pain scores at postoperative immediate, 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours were significantly lower than before the evidence application, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Additionally, post-intervention, the patients' satisfaction with pain control and comfort scores were significantly higher than before the evidence application, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The application of the best evidence for pain management in hepatectomy, combined with the construction of quality review indicators and evidence-based practice, can alleviate postoperative pain in patients, improve their satisfaction, and enhance their comfort.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of a combined model based on clinicopathological and MRI features in BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer.Methods The data of 132 patients with ovarian cancer who underwent pathology and BRCA gene tes-ting were analyzed retrospectively,including 52 cases of BRCA mutation group and 80 cases of BRCA wild group.The differences of MRI features and clinicopathological features between BRCA mutation group and BRCA wild group were compared.Binary logistic regression was used to construct a joint prediction model and analyze its diagnostic efficiency.Results There were significant differ-ences in cytokeratin 7(CK7),estrogen receptor(ER),Ki-67 and lymphovascular invasion(LVI)between the BRAC mutation group and the BRAC wild group(P<0.05).Univariate analysis showed that CK7,ER,Ki-67,LVI and the apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)value of the cystic part of tumor were risk factors for BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer.The combined model based on CK7,ER,Ki-67,LVI,and the ADC value of the cystic part of tumor for the diagnosis of BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer had an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.765.Conclusion CK7,ER,Ki-67,LVI and the ADC value of the cystic part of tumor are risk factors for BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer.The combined model based on the above characteristics demonstrates good diagnostic efficacy for BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer.

BACKGROUND:
Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are major adverse events in neurosurgical patients. This study aimed to develop and validate machine learning models predicting PPCs after neurosurgery.
METHODS:
PPCs were defined according to the European Perioperative Clinical Outcome standards as occurring within 7 postoperative days. Data of cases meeting inclusion/exclusion criteria were extracted from the anesthesia information management system to create three datasets: The development (data of Huashan Hospital, Fudan University from 2018 to 2020), temporal validation (data of Huashan Hospital, Fudan University in 2021) and external validation (data of other three hospitals in 2023) datasets. Machine learning models of six algorithms were trained using either 35 retrievable and plausible features or the 11 features selected by Lasso regression. Temporal validation was conducted for all models and the 11-feature models were also externally validated. Independent risk factors were identified and feature importance in top models was analyzed.
RESULTS:
PPCs occurred in 712 of 7533 (9.5%), 258 of 2824 (9.1%), and 207 of 2300 (9.0%) patients in the development, temporal validation and external validation datasets, respectively. During cross-validation training, all models except Bayes demonstrated good discrimination with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.840. In temporal validation of full-feature models, deep neural network (DNN) performed the best with an AUC of 0.835 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.805-0.858) and a Brier score of 0.069, followed by Logistic regression (LR), random forest and XGBoost. The 11-feature models performed comparable to full-feature models with very close but statistically significantly lower AUCs, with the top models of DNN and LR in temporal and external validations. An 11-feature nomogram was drawn based on the LR algorithm and it outperformed the minimally modified Assess respiratory RIsk in Surgical patients in CATalonia (ARISCAT) and Laparoscopic Surgery Video Educational Guidelines (LAS VEGAS) scores with a higher AUC (LR: 0.824, ARISCAT: 0.672, LAS: 0.663). Independent risk factors based on multivariate LR mostly overlapped with Lasso-selected features, but lacked consistency with the important features using the Shapley additive explanation (SHAP) method of the LR model.
CONCLUSIONS:
The developed models, especially the DNN model and the nomogram, had good discrimination and calibration, and could be used for predicting PPCs in neurosurgical patients. The establishment of machine learning models and the ascertainment of risk factors might assist clinical decision support for improving surgical outcomes.
