Objective:To explore the differences in the self-perceived burden of gastric cancer patients at different treatment time points and its relationship with family care and self-management efficacy, providing a reference for developing interventions to reduce self-perceived burden in gastric cancer patients.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select 151 gastric cancer patients who were hospitalized in the Department of Gastroenterology at Xinxiang Central Hospital from January 2022 to March 2024. Surveys were conducted at four time points: one day before surgery (T 1), after surgery and before the first chemotherapy (T 2), after the third chemotherapy (T 3), and after the sixth chemotherapy (T 4). The Self-Perceived Burden Scale, Family APGAR Index, and Chinese version of the Strategies Used by People to Promote Health were used. Repeated measures analysis of variance was applied to examine the trend of score changes at different time points, and multiple linear regression analysis was performed to explore the relationship between family care, self-management efficacy, and self-perceived burden at each time point. Results:The self-perceived burden scores of gastric cancer patients at the four time points were (31.11±7.86), (32.44±7.78), (33.44±7.45), and (33.17±7.06), respectively. Family care showed a negative impact on the self-perceived burden of patients at all four time points (standardized regression coefficients were -0.148, -0.733, -0.180, -0.218; P<0.05). Self-management efficacy also had a negative impact on the self-perceived burden at all four time points (standardized regression coefficients were -0.792, -0.209, -0.445, -0.402; P<0.05) . Conclusions:The self-perceived burden of gastric cancer patients increases gradually during treatment. Both family care and self-management efficacy negatively affect the self-perceived burden. Healthcare professionals should pay attention to the changes in self-perceived burden and its influencing factors during the treatment process, and develop targeted interventions to improve patients' self-perceived burden and quality of life.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between serum calcium levels and pain in patients with Parkinson's disease(PD).Methods:A total of 111 patients with PD and 50 healthy volunteers were recruited from our hospital between July 2019 and June 2020.Motor symptoms of PD patients were assessed using the Hoehn-Yahr(H&Y)stages and the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale-Ⅲ(UPDRSⅢ).Non-motor symptoms were evaluated using Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE), 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale(HAMD-17), 14-item Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale(HAMA-14), questionnaire for rapid eye movement(REM)sleep behavior disorder(RBDQ-HK), King Parkinson's pain scale(KPPS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI), Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale(PDSS), and Epworth Sleepiness Scale(ESS).The quality of life of PD patients was assessed using the 39-item Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire(PDQ-39).Results:The levels of serum calcium in PD patients were significantly lower than those in the control group( t=3.733, P<0.001).Additionally, the levels of serum calcium in PD patients with pain were higher than those in PD patients without pain( t=-3.238, P<0.05).This suggests a significant positive correlation between serum calcium levels and pain in PD patients( r=0.320, P=0.001).When analyzing serum calcium levels for PD with pain using binary logistic regression, the area under the curve(AUC=0.662)and sensitivity(28.9%)were found to be low.Furthermore, a correlation analysis of KPPS scores in PD patients with pain revealed that KPPS scores were correlated with UPDRSⅢ( r=0.383, P=0.009), HAMD-17( r=0.303, P=0.043), HAMA-14( r=0.303, P=0.043), PSQI( r=0.304, P=0.042), and PDSS( r=-0.417, P=0.004)scores. Conclusions:The levels of serum calcium are decreased in patients with Parkinson's disease(PD), and there is a correlation between serum calcium levels and pain experienced by PD patients.However, it is important to note that pain in PD patients is influenced by various other factors.

In recent years,there has been a deeper understanding of the role and mechanisms of common inflammatory cytokines in the development and progression of liver cirrhosis,such as interleukin-1β,interleukin-6,interleukin-10,interleukin-17,tumor necrosis factor-α,interferon-γ,and C-reactive protein,and significant achievements have also been made in the research on the association of these inflammatory cytokines with disorder of glucose metabolism and pancreatic islet dysfunction.This article reviews the role of inflammatory cytokines in patients with liver cirrhosis and their impact on disorder of glucose metabolism and pancreatic islet dysfunction,in order to provide a theoretical basis for clarifying the pathogenesis of hepatogenous diabetes and performing the clinical management of the disease.

Clinical undergraduates generally have the following problems during their radiology internship: short internship period, low motivation, teachers using traditional teaching mode, and insufficient hardware and software facilities for image reading. In this study, RadiAnt DICOM Viewer and case-based learning (CBL) model were applied in online practice teaching for clinical undergraduates in the radiology department, which achieved good results. The results showed that the clinical undergraduates had a pass rate of 91.18% (124/136) in the image reading quiz and a mean score of (85.71±10.99) in the in-class quiz, with a pass rate of 91.91% (125/136). The satisfaction survey showed that 84.56% (115/136) of the students were more satisfied with the application of RadiAnt DICOM Viewer in image reading teaching; 80.88% (110/136) of the students expressed more interest in radiology after this training course; 90.44% (123/136) of the students thought that online practice teaching of radiology is feasible.

Objective:To investigate the reasonable dosage of heparin anticoagulation scheme during plasma adsorption (PA) therapy for liver failure.Methods:Patients with liver failure treated with PA therapy were retrospectively collected and divided according to the anticoagulation scheme into the first-dose heparin anticoagulation group and the first-dose plus maintenance heparin anticoagulation group. Clinical data and laboratory test results were compared before and after treatment between the two groups. Paired t-tests were used for comparison within the normally distributed groups. An independent two-sample t-test was used for inter group comparison. Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used for measurement data that did not conform to a normal distribution. Fisher's exact test was used to compare the count data between groups. Results:There were 138 cases with liver failure treated with PA therapy from October 2017 to September 2020. Among them, 83 and 55 cases were in the first-dose heparin anticoagulation and first-dose plus maintenance heparin anticoagulation group, respectively. Age, gender, and laboratory data before treatment were comparable between the two groups. PA treatment was successfully completed in both groups of patient, and there was no statistically significant difference in the determination of coagulation level with plasma separators ( Z=-0.15, P=0.216). There were different degrees of bleeding complications in both groups. In the first-dose heparin anticoagulation group, there were two cases (2.4%) of central venous catheter bleeding and one case (1.2%) of epistaxis. In the first-dose plus maintenance heparin anticoagulation group, there were five cases (9.1%) of central venous catheter bleeding, two cases (3.6%) of skin bleeding, one case (1.8%) of epistaxis, and one case (1.8%) of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. The incidence of bleeding complications was lower in the first-dose of heparin anticoagulation than first-dose plus maintenance heparin anticoagulation group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). The activated partial thromboplastin time of the two groups was prolonged after therapy withdrawal than with therapy, and the difference was statistically significant (first-dose heparin anticoagulation group: t=3.850, P=0.022; first-dose plus maintenance heparin anticoagulation group: t=6.733, P=0.007). The activated partial thromboplastin time was prolonged in patients with first-dose plus maintenance heparin anticoagulation than first-dose heparin anticoagulation group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.025). The total bilirubin of the two groups before and after PA was significantly changed (the first-dose heparin anticoagulation group: Z=-2.455, P=0.017; the first-dose plus maintenance heparin anticoagulation group: Z=-2.307, P=0.024), and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( P=0.412). There was no statistically significant difference in platelet changes before and after PA therapy between the two groups (the first dose of heparin anticoagulation group: Z=-0.529, P=0.480; the first-dose plus maintenance heparin anticoagulation group: Z=-0.276, P=0.362). Conclusion:Anticoagulation scheme without maintenance medication is feasible with prothrombin activity before ≤20-40%, activated partial thromboplastin time of ≤87 s (2 times the upper normal value), platelet count before treatment (excluding contraindications to heparin) ≥50×10 9/L, and the first dose of heparin administration of 0.2 mg/kg during PA therapy in patients with liver failure.

ObjectiveTo investigate an outbreak of norovirus diarrhea in a welfare home for the elderly in Shanghai， and to analyze the epidemiology and virus genotype characteristics of the epidemic， thus providing a scientific basis for the prevention and control of norovirus epidemic. MethodsCase definition was clarified. After case definition， a standardized questionnaire was used to carry out case investigation to make comprehensive analysis in combination with field epidemiological investigation and laboratory tests results. ResultsThe epidemic lasted for 14 days， and 23 cases were reported with an incidence rate of 12.37% （23/186）， including 3 males and 20 females. There were more cases on the 1st， 4th and 6th floor of the main building in the welfare home， accounting for 52.17% （12/23） of total cases. 19 cases were reported in the main building， with an incidence rate of 11.59% （19/164）； 4 cases were reported in the auxiliary building， with an incidence rate of 18.18% （4/22）. There was no significant difference in the morbidity between the main building and the auxiliary building （χ²=0.779，P>0.05）. The main clinical manifestations were vomiting and diarrhea. There was a significant difference in the incidence of vomiting symptoms among the elderly， nursing staff and other staff in the welfare home （χ²=10.216， P<0.05）. But there was no significant difference in the incidence of diarrhea among the elderly， nursing staff and other staff （χ²=1.218， P>0.05）. Fecal samples were collected from 23 cases， 1 case family member， 68 risk personnel and 14 environmental surface swab samples. Norovirus GⅡ was detected in stool samples of 19 cases， 1 family member and 36 risk personnel. ConclusionOutbreak of norovirus infection is reported in a welfare home in Shanghai. The close contact between the elderly and health workers might lead to the outbreak.

The oral cavity of each person is home to hundreds of bacterial species.While taxa for oral diseases have been studied using culture-based characterization as well as amplicon sequencing,metagenomic and genomic information remains scarce compared to the fecal microbiome.Here,using metagenomic shotgun data for 3346 oral metagenomic samples together with 808 published samples,we obtain 56,213 metagenome-assembled genomes(MAGs),and more than 64％of the 3589 species-level genome bins(SGBs)contain no publicly available genomes.The resulting genome collection is representative of samples around the world and contains many genomes from candi-date phyla radiation(CPR)that lack monoculture.Also,it enables the discovery of new taxa such as a genus Candidatus Bgiplasma within the family Acholeplasmataceae.Large-scale metagenomic data from massive samples also allow the assembly of strains from important oral taxa such as Por-phyromonas and Neisseria.The oral microbes encode genes that could potentially metabolize drugs.Apart from these findings,a strongly male-enriched Campylobacter species was identified.Oral sam-ples would be more user-friendly collected than fecal samples and have the potential for disease diagnosis.Thus,these data lay down a genomic framework for future inquiries of the human oral microbiome.

Objective:To understand the basic situation of noise hazards in wood furniture manufacturing, stone processing and special equipment manufacturing industries in Shenzhen City, and to provide basis for preventing and controlling noise hazards.Methods:In August 2019, stratified random sampling ws used to select 21 wood funiture manafacturing, 15 stone processing and 24 special equipment manufactruing as survey object. Through the methods of occupational health field investigation, noise intensity measurement and occupational health examination data collection, the noise hazards of 60 enterprises in three industries were statistically analyzed.Results:There were 154, 44 and 113 noise detection points in wood furniture manufacturing, stone processing and special equipment manufacturing enterprises, and 101, 27 and 78 out of standard points respectively, and the exceeding standard rates were 65.6% (101/154) , 61.4% (27/44) and 69.0% (78/113) , respectively. There were 1670, 172 and 856 workers exposed to noise in the three industries. Among them, 1198, 134 and 703 people had taken occupational health examination. The physical examination rates were 71.7% (1198/1670) , 77.9% (134/172) and 82.1% (703/856) , respectively. The abnormal rates were 19.1% (229/1198) , 51.5% (69/134) and 37.8% (266/703) , respectively.Conclusion:High intensity noise working environment, too long noise exposure time, incorrect wearing of personal protective equipment and neglect of occupational health examination are important reasons for hearing loss of noise exposed personnel.
