Objective: To investigate the status and influencing factors of influenza vaccination among the elderly, so as to provide insights into improving the strategies for influenza vaccination among the elderly. Methods: Elderly people aged 60 years and above were recruited from one community each in five sub-districts of Shihezi City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region using a random sampling method. Demographic information, knowledge about influenza and influenza vaccines, vaccine literacy and influenza vaccination status in the past year were collected through questionnaire surveys. Factors affecting influenza vaccination among the elderly were analyzed using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: Totally 1 121 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 95.08%. There were 417 males (37.20%) and 704 females (62.80%). The majority were aged 60-<81 years, accounting for 80.37% (901 individuals). The awareness of knowledge about influenza and influenza vaccines was 78.86%. Low vaccine literacy was observed in 786 individuals, representing 70.12%. The influenza vaccination rate was 20.96%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that age (71-<81 years, OR=1.607, 95%CI: 1.041-2.479; ≥81 years, OR=1.719, 95%CI: 1.040-2.842), educational level (middle school/technical secondary school, OR=0.616, 95%CI: 0.416-0.911), medical expense payment (employee medical insurance, OR=6.531, 95%CI: 2.030-21.010; resident medical insurance, OR=3.385, 95%CI: 1.095-10.466; public expense, OR=4.828, 95%CI: 1.700-13.712), vaccination willingness (yes, OR=6.237, 95%CI: 3.277-11.871), influenza vaccination history (yes, OR=14.600, 95%CI: 8.733-24.408) and vaccine literacy (medium and above, OR=2.412, 95%CI: 1.636-3.555) were associated with influenza vaccination among the elderly. Conclusion The influenza vaccination rate among the elderly was relatively low, and was mainly affected by age, educational level, medical expense payment, vaccination willingness, influenza vaccination history and vaccine literacy.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of the miR-543/syntrophin beta 1(SNTB1)axis in colorectal cancer(CRC)and its influence on the tumor immune microenvironment.Methods The expression of SNTB1 in CRC tissues was analyzed using public data,such as,The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA),Genotype-Tissue Expression(GTEx),and Human Protein Atlas(HPA).Then Kaplan-Meier survival analysis,univariate Cox regression analysis and correlation analysis were performed to evaluate the prognostic value of SNTB1 and its relationship with immune microenvironment in CRC.The targeting relationship between miR-543 and SNTB1 was confirmed through online databases and fluorescence assays in HT-29 cells.For in vitro experiments,after transfecting si-SNTB1,miR-543 mimics and/or SNTB1 overexpression plasmids,HT-29 cells were co-cultured with CD8+T cells,the expression of miR543 and SNTB1 and the viability and cytotoxicity of CD8+T cells were assessed with qRT-PCR,Western blotting,flow cytometry,ELISA,and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)release assay.Results Analysis of public databases revealed significantly higher expression of SNTB1 in CRC tissues than normal tissues(P<0.001).The CRC patients with high SNTB1 expression exhibited poorer prognosis when compared with those with low expression level(P<0.05).Moreover,high SNTB1 expression was negatively correlated with immune scores in the tumor microenvironment and immune cell infiltration,especially CD8+T cells(P<0.05).Furthermore,Knockdown of SNTB1 in HT-29 cells enhanced the cytotoxic activity of CD8+T cells(P<0.01).Online database and in vitro experiments confirmed that miR-543 targets SNTB1,while the expression of miR-543 was decreased in colorectal cancer(P<0.001).Transfection with the miR-543 mimic inhibited the expression of SNTB1 in HT-29 cells(P<0.001),while overexpressing SNTB1 counteracted the promotion effect of miR-543 mimics on CD8+T cell-mediated cytotoxicity(P<0.05).Conclusion MiR-543 activates CD8+T cells and enhances their cytotoxicity against HT-29 cells by directly targeting SNTB1.

Objective:To explore the classification and influencing factors of family resilience and post-traumatic growth in patients with spinal tumor.Methods:A cross-sectional investigation was conducted among 219 inpatients with spinal tumor admitted from July 2021 to July 2022. The General Demographic Information questionnaire, Chinese-Family Resilience Assessment Scale, Posttraumatic Growth Inventory, Family Crisis-Oriented Personal Evaluation Scales (F-COPES), and Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) were used in the study. The ordinal and multivariate logistic regression analyses was applied to identify the factors associated with the classification of family resilience and post-traumatic growth.Results:Of the 219 patients, there were 62 cases of primary spinal tumors (28.3%). According to the results of latent profile analysis, the respondents were classified into three categories by family resilience and post-traumatic growth, namely family difficulty-resistant type ( n=38, 17.4%), general resilience-struggle type ( n=99, 45.2%) and family adaptation-growth type ( n=82, 37.4%). There were significant differences in occupational status, commitment to housework, family atmosphere( χ2=10.75, P=0.025; χ2=6.95, P=0.031; χ2=11.37, P=0.017), and total score of F-COPES and SSRS ( F=25.95, P<0.001; F=19.06, P<0.001)among three groups. Ordinal and multivariate logisitc regression analyses showed that retirement ( OR=2.928, 95% CI:1.098-7.808, P<0.05), family coping ( OR=1.113, 95% CI:1.063-1.165, P<0.05), and social support ( OR=1.226, 95% CI:1.103-1.362, P<0.05) were independently associated with family resilience and post-traumatic growth in patients with spinal tumor. Conclusion:Patients with spinal tumor have significant differences in characteristics by family resilience and post-traumatic growth. As a result, more targeted interventions should be provided for different categories of spinal tumor patients in the future.

Objective To investigate the expressions of H3.3G34W,p63 and SATB2 in giant cell tumor of bone(GCTB)and the effect and value of their combined application in the diagnosis of GCTB.Methods We collected the samples and medical records of 54 cases of GCTB and 83 cases of non-giant cell tumor of bone(14 cases of aneurysmal bone cyst,16 cases of chondroblastoma and 53 cases of non-ossifying fibroma)diagnosed between 2020 and 2022 in the Department of Pathology of Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University.The expressions of H3.3G34W,p63 and SATB2 were detected by EliVision immunohistochemical method.X2 test was used to determine whether there are significant differences in the positive rates of H3.3G34W,p63 and SATB2 among all the groups.The combined diagnostic model including H3.3G34W,p63 and SATB2 was established by Logistic regression analysis,and the diagnostic value of the model was evaluated by ROC curve analysis.Results The positive rates of H3.3G34W,p63 and SATB2 in GCTB group were 81.5％,90.7％and 92.6％,respectively;the positive rates in NGCTB group were 2.4％,28.9％and 62.7％.Compared with NGCTB group,the age of GCTB group was significantly older[(41.222±14.849)vs.(16.566±9.439),P＜0.001],and the prevalence was higher in women than in men(51.9％vs.48.1％,P＜0.001).In addition,compared with the NGCTB group,the positive rates of H3.3G34W(81.5％vs.2.4％,P＜0.001),p63(90.7％vs.28.9％,P＜0.001)and SATB2(92.6％vs.62.7％,P＜0.001)were significantly higher in the GCTB group.Univariate regression analysis built a univariate prediction modeland ROC curve analysis showed that age(AUC=92.9％,P＜0.001),sex(AUC=64.5％,P=0.004),H3.3G34W positive rate(AUC=89.5％,P＜0.001),p63 positive rate(AUC=80.9％,P＜0.001)and SATB2 positive rate(AUC=65.0％,P=0.003)were independent predictors of diagnosis of giant cell tumor of bone.Multivariate regression analysis(Logistic)constructed a hybrid prediction model.ROC curve analysis suggested that the hybrid model showed better prediction value than the single factor model(AUC=98.4％,P＜0.001).Conclusion H3.3G34W,p63 and SATB2 are effective molecular markers for the diagnosis of GCTB,and their combined application can improve the prediction efficiency of the diagnosis of GCTB.

Objective:To investigate the influential factors of patients' expectations for clinical decision-making during digestive endoscopy.Methods:A total of 120 patients who underwent digestive endoscopy were admitted to the Endoscopy Center of Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from January 2020 to January 2022. Their general information was collected, and their clinical decision-making expectations were evaluated using the Control Preference Scale (CPS). The influential factors of clinical decision-making expectations were determined using multiple linear regression analysis.Results:The total CPS score for 120 patients undergoing digestive endoscopy was (50.72 ± 5.48) points, including (14.12 ± 1.48) points for information needs, (25.17 ± 3.52) points for communication needs, and (11.43 ± 2.04) points for decision-making needs. Univariate analysis showed that the CPS score of patients undergoing digestive endoscopy was related to gender, age, marital status, educational level, number of children, and type of visit ( t = 2.68, 2.61, 2.82, 3.28, 3.61, 2.39, all P < 0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender, age, educational level, and type of visit were the influential factors of clinical decision-making expectations for patients undergoing digestive endoscopy ( β = -0.71, 1.07, 0.53, -1.15, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Gender, age, educational level, and type of visit are influential factors of patients' expectations for clinical decision-making during digestive endoscopy. Patients have a clear need for communication during clinical decision-making, and medical staff can strengthen communication with patients, correctly guiding them to participate in clinical decision-making expectations.

Objective:To construct a communication strategy and implementation method for advanced cancer patients based on two communication models widely used at home and abroad, so as to reduce the difficulty of clinical disease notification.Methods:From January to October 2022, based on the communication model of SPIKES (Setting, Perception, Invitation, Knowledge, Empathy, Summary) and NURSE(Name, Understand, Respect, Support, Explore), combined with literature analysis, qualitative interviews, and expert argumentation, the communication strategy items of advanced cancer patients were constructed.Results:A total of 18 articles were included in the literature analysis. Qualitative interviews were conducted with 20 interviewees (including 4 doctors, 11 nurses, and 5 patients),6 males, 14 females, aged (35.94 ± 8.03) years old. A total of 8 experts participated in the demonstration, 2 males and 6 females, aged (41.88 ± 6.58) years old. Finally, the specific items and words of the disease notification process and communication strategies of advanced cancer patients in line with China ′s clinical practice were constructed. A total of 3 first-level items, 16 second-level items, 53 third-level items, and speech techniques were constructed, including pre-communication preparation, regular communication strategies, and poor communication disposal strategies. The importance score of the item was 4.50 to 5.00, and the coefficient of variation of the item was 0 to 0.12. Conclusions:The communication strategy of advanced cancer patients based on the communication model is scientific and feasible, and can be used as a tool to inform advanced cancer patients.

Objective:To gain a deeper understanding of the experience of medical staff in the oncology department in understanding and managing chemotherapy-induced taste alterations (CITAs).Methods:Using phenomenological research methods, in-depth interviews were conducted with 15 medical staff in the oncology department of Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center, and the interview materials were transcribed, encoded, categorized, and described by Colaizzi 7-step analysis method.Results:Totally 15 respondents aged 26-43, 3 males and 12 females. Three themes were extracted, including the perception of benefits of CITAs symptom management ("hard outcome" benefit perception - improving symptom management level; "soft outcome" benefit perception-enhancing effective communication among multiple parties); the obstacles between the lack of awareness of knowledge about CITAs and symptom management (differences in medical staff′s understanding of CITAs; low accessibility of acquisition channels about CITAs knowledge); the management and intervention measures of CITAs lack specialization and high efliciency (CITAs′ management measures mostly stem from work experience; CITAs′ management may be based on information construction in the future).Conclusions:Hospital managers should fully utilize the opportunity of symptom management in CITAs, develop professional and efficient intervention and management strategies, strengthen the learning of relevant knowledge of the symptom among medical staff in oncology department, reduce symptom distress and patient self-perception burden, and improve the level of symptom management among medical staff in the oncology department.

Objective The development of the expert consensus on self-management of skin adverse reactions in patients undergoing targeted cancer therapy(hereinafter referred to as"the consensus")aims to enhance the effectiveness of self-management for skin-related adverse reactions in cancer patients receiving targeted therapy.It seeks to reduce the incidence of these reactions and alleviate their severity.Methods Utilizing evidence-based approaches,a systematic search was conducted across both domestic and international databases and relevant websites.This process included the evaluation and summarization of pertinent evidence to create a preliminary draft of the consensus.Through 2 rounds of Delphi expert inquiries and a round of expert panel discussion,the content was refined,leading to the final draft of the consensus.Results The consensus comprises 11 sections:gathering information before medication,identifying risk factors prior to medication,self-assessment and proactive reporting,skin cleansing,skin moisturizing,sun protection,makeup application,appropriate clothing,engaging in household activities,prophylactic medication,and common management techniques.Conclusion This consensus provides a valuable reference for clinical nurses to guide cancer patients in the self-management of skin adverse reactions associated with targeted drug therapy.

Objective To evaluate the scientificity,transparency and applicability of Chinese guidelines and expert consensuses on nursing published in 2022,in order to improve the quality of guidelines and consensuses.Methods Databases including Medline,Embase,Web of Science,CBM,CNKI,WanFang database,Chinese Medical Journal,and related websites were electronically searched,as well as China Hong Kong,Macao and Taiwan medical journals,to collect Chinese guidelines and expert consensuses on nursing from January to December 2022.STAR tool was used to evaluate the quality of each guidelines and consensuses by 3 assessors independently.Total score,scoring rate of each domain and item were adopted to analyze the outcomes.Results A total of 3 guidelines and 33 expert consensuses were included.The total guidelines and expert consensuses STAR score(33.5±14.3).The quality of guidelines and consensuses was low.The quality of guidelines was moderate with average score of 55.1,and the quality of consensuses was low with average score of 31.5.The included guidelines and consensuses had a highest score rate(52.4％)in the domain of recommendation.Among 39 items of STAR tool,the top 4 items including listing participants and institutions,explaining additional instructions for implementation,describing consensus method,and listing references for recommendations had a high score rate of 100％,83.3％,77.8％,75.0％respectively.However,the items of registration,providing registration information,protocols being searched on public platforms and explaining the role of funding had a low score rate,urgent need for attention and upgrading.Conclusion The overall quality of the Chinese guidelines and expert consensuses on nursing published in 2022 was low.As a medical and nursing practice guidance document,the quality of guidelines and expert consensuses should be improved by encouraging registration,strengthening management of interest conflict,enhancing the rigor of guideline developing process,and expanding the dissemination.
