Objective To explore the health promotion behaviors among patients with pulmonary tuberculosis(TB),and to analyze its relationship with health locus of control,in order to provide scientific references for improving TB patients'health-promotion behaviors in clinical nursing care.Methods The interpretive sequence mixed method design was utilized.A convenient sampling was used to enroll 300 TB patients from 2 TB specialized tertiary hospitals in Xi'an as research subjects from January to April 2023.General information questionnaire,Health promoting lifestyle profile-Ⅱ,and Multidimensional health locus of control scale were used to collect data,and single-factor analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were conducted.Purposeful sampling was used to select 11 TB patients for a semi-structured interview,and the Colaizzi 7-step method was used to extract themes.Results In the quantitative study,the total score of health promoting behaviors in 294 TB patients was(110.26±15.74).Patients'intemal health locus of control,chance health locus of control,and occupational status significantly influenced their health-promotion behaviors(P＜0.05).In the qualitative study,4 themes were extracted,including awakening self-awareness of health,the desire to establish a normal life,the distress of multiple uncertainties,and the immediate effect of authoritative guidance.The qualitative and quantitative studies complemented each other and further verified the relationship between health promotion behaviors and health locus of control of TB patients.Conclusion The level of health-promotion behaviors in TB patients needs to be further improved.Nurses need to take systematic health education as an opportunity by the catalytic effect of individual health awareness,to improve their internal locus of control,reduce their opportunity control tendency due to multiple uncertainties,with the ultimate purpose of helping TB patients form and maintain health promotion behaviors.

AIM:To investigate the therapeutic effects of chrysin on nonalcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH).METHODS:Eight-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control group,model group,and chrysin group.The mice in control group were fed with normal diet,and those in model and chrysin groups were fed with methio-nine-and choline-deficient(MCD)diet.After 5 weeks of adaptation,the mice in chrysin group received chrysin treatment(20 mg/kg)by continuous lavage for 6 weeks,while those in control and model groups were given equal volume of saline.During the experiment,the health condition of the mice was monitored.Liver morphology was examined after the mice were sacrificed.Serum triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),high-den-sity lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),alanine aminotransferase(ALT)and aspartate aminotransferase(AST)levels were measured using a biochemical analyzer.Liver tissue TG and TC levels were measured using assay kits.Liver cell damage and inflammation were assessed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining and F4/80 immunohistochemistry staining.The ex-tent of liver lipid deposition was explored by oil red O staining.Masson staining and Sirius red staining were performed to assess liver fibrosis.Immunohistochemistry was performed to analyze the expression of fibrosis-related molecules.RE-SULTS:Compared with control group,the mice in model group showed significant decrease in body weight,liver wet weight,and liver volume.Serum TG,LDL-C,ALT and AST levels,as well as liver TG and TC levels were significantly elevated,and HDL-C levels were decreased in model group.Pathological staining showed significant inflammatory cell in-filtration,lipid deposition,and liver fibrosis.After the treatment with chrysin,increased body weight and liver weight,a reddish appearance of the liver,relatively smooth surface,and sharp liver edges were observed.Serum TG,LDL-C,AST and ALT levels,and liver TG levels were significantly reduced by chrysin.Inflammatory cell infiltration,lipid deposition,and liver tissue fibrosis were also significantly attenuated by chrysin.CONCLUSION:Chrysin shows a potential as a can-didate drug for the treatment of NASH by inhibiting hepatic steatosis,inflammation,and liver fibrosis.

Cervical cancer is a malignant tumor of the female reproductive system, which is closely related to persistent infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV). Locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) refers to cervical cancer of stage IB3 to IVA [International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2018 staging], characterized by tumor diameter greater than 4 cm or invasion of adjacent tissues. The standard treatment for LACC is concurrent chemoradiotherapy, with cisplatin as the preferred chemotherapeutic agent. However, there is still a clinical need for further improvement of the overall prognosis of LACC, and exploring effective adjuvant treatment strategies after concurrent chemoradiotherapy to increase the cure rate and quality of life of LACC patients is an important topic in clinical practice. This article reviews the types, indications, effects and existing problems of adjuvant treatment after concurrent chemoradiotherapy for LACC.

Objective To investigate the expression of MutS homolog 3(MSH3)in oral squamous cell carcinoma and its significance.Methods The MSH3 protein expression was examined by immunohistochemistry in 20 normal oral mucosa and 60 oral squamous cell carcinoma tissues.Results Our results showed that MSH3 expression in oral squamous cell carcinoma tissues was lower than normal oral mucosa.The MSH3 expression in oral squamous cell carcinoma tissues with better differentiation was higher than that with worse differentiation.The positive MSH3 expression decreased from oral squamous cell carcinoma patients without lymph nodal metastasis to that with metastasis.MSH3 expression was not related to the patients'gender,age,tumour location or size.Conclusion Downregulation of MSH3 is consistent with poorly differentiation and nodal metastasis in oral squamous cell carcinoma.MSH3 may play a significant role in the malignant progression of oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective:To compare the diagnostic performance of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT in detecting pelvic lymph node metastasis in prostate cancer.Methods:This is a retrospective case series study. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 115 prostate cancer patients who underwent both mpMRI and PSMA PET/CT before undergoing radical prostatectomy and extended pelvic lymph node dissection at the Department of Urology, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, between March 2020 and September 2023. The age ( M(IQR)) was 67(10) years (range: 45 to 84 years), and the body mass index was 24(4) kg/m 2 (range: 18 to 30 kg/m 2). Pathological and imaging data were obtained from the patients. Lymph node pathology results were used as the gold standard to evaluate the diagnostic performance of mpMRI and PSMA PET/CT for detecting pelvic lymph node metastasis in PCa through diagnostic evaluation tests. Comparisons between groups were performed using independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, or χ2 test. Results:The positive rate for detecting pelvic lymph node metastasis was 18.3% (21/115) with mpMRI and 25.2% (29/115) with PSMA PET/CT. The pathological positive rate for lymph nodes was 28.7% (33/115). In patient-based analysis, the diagnostic sensitivity of PSMA PET/CT was significantly higher than that of mpMRI (63.6% vs. 30.3%, χ2=7.36, P=0.007). In lesion-based analysis, both the sensitivity and positive predictive value of PSMA PET/CT were significantly higher than those of mpMRI (sensitivity: 68.0% vs. 21.6%, χ2=42.20, P<0.01; positive predictive value: 50.0% vs. 23.1%, χ2=7.54, P=0.006). Conclusions:PSMA PET/CT and mpMRI both demonstrates good specificity in predicting pelvic lymph node metastasis in prostate cancer. However, PSMA PET/CT is significantly superior to mpMRI in terms of sensitivity and the detection rate of pathologically positive lymph nodes.

Objective:To analyze the factors affecting delayed chemotherapy in children with Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and their influence on prognosis.Methods:Retrospective cohort study. Clinical data of 591 children aged ≤18 years with BL from May 2017 to December 2022 in China Net Childhood Lymphoma (CNCL) was collected. The patients were treated according to the protocol CNCL-BL-2017. According to the clinical characteristics, therapeutic regimen was divided into group A, group B and group C .Based on whether the total chemotherapy time was delayed, patients were divided into two groups: the delayed chemotherapy group and the non-delayed chemotherapy group. Based on the total delayed time of chemotherapy, patients in group C were divided into non-delayed chemotherapy group, 1-7 days delayed group and more than 7 days delayed group. Relationships between delayed chemotherapy and gender, age, tumor lysis syndrome before chemotherapy, bone marrow involvement, disease group (B/C group), serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) > 4 times than normal, grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ myelosuppression after chemotherapy, minimal residual disease in the interim assessment, and severe infection (including severe pneumonia, sepsis, meningitis, chickenpox, etc.) were analyzed. Logistic analysis was used to identify the relevant factors. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the patients' survival information. Log-Rank was used for comparison between groups.Results:Among 591 patients, 504 were males and 87 were females, the follow-up time was 34.8 (18.6,50.1) months. The 3-year overall survival (OS) rate was (92.5±1.1)%,and the 3-year event-free survival (EFS) rate was (90.5±1.2)%. Seventy-three (12.4%) patients were in delayed chemotherapy group and 518 (87.6%) patients were in non-delayed chemotherapy group. The reasons for chemotherapy delay included 72 cases (98.6%) of severe infection, 65 cases (89.0%) of bone marrow suppression, 35 cases (47.9%) of organ dysfunction, 22 cases (30.1%) of tumor lysis syndrome,etc. There were 7 cases of chemotherapy delay in group B, which were seen in COPADM (vincristine+cyclophosphamide+prednisone+daunorubicin+methotrexate+intrathecal injection,4 cases) and CYM (methotrexate+cytarabine+intrathecal injection,3 cases) stages. There were 66 cases of chemotherapy delay in group C, which were common in COPADM (28 cases) and CYVE 1 (low dose cytarabine+high dose cytarabine+etoposide+methotrexate, 12 cases) stages. Multinomial Logistic regression analysis showed that the age over 10 years old ( OR=0.54,95% CI 0.30-0.93), tumor lysis syndrome before chemotherapy ( OR=0.48,95% CI 0.27-0.84) and grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ myelosuppression after chemotherapy ( OR=0.55,95% CI 0.33-0.91)were independent risk factors for chemotherapy delay.The 3-year OS rate and the 3-year EFS rate of children with Burkitt lymphoma in the delayed chemotherapy group were lower than those in the non-delayed chemotherapy group ((79.4±4.9)% vs. (94.2±1.1)%, (80.2±4.8)% vs. (92.0±1.2)%,both P<0.05). The 3-year OS rate of the group C with chemotherapy delay >7 days (42 cases) was lower than that of the group with chemotherapy delay of 1-7 days (22 cases) and the non-delay group (399 cases) ((76.7±6.9)% vs. (81.8±8.2)% vs. (92.7±1.3)%, P=0.002).The 3-year OS rate of the chemotherapy delay group (9 cases) in the COP (vincristine+cyclophosphamide+prednisone) phase was lower than that of the non-chemotherapy delay group (454 cases) ((66.7±15.7)% vs. (91.3±1.4)%, P=0.005). Similarly, the 3-year OS rate of the chemotherapy delay group (11 cases) in the COPADM1 phase was lower than that of the non-chemotherapy delay group (452 cases) ((63.6±14.5)% vs. (91.5±1.3)%, P=0.001). Conclusions:The delayed chemotherapy was related to the age over 10 years old, tumor lysis syndrome before chemotherapy and grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ myelosuppression after chemotherapy in pediatric BL. There is a significant relationship between delayed chemotherapy and prognosis of BL in children.

Kendall's harmony coefficient was 0.25 to 0.27 ( P<0.05). The final consensus included adult SE identification, first aid, monitoring and support, complication prevention and control, and effect evaluation of terminating SE. Conclusions:This consensus is practical and provides guidance for clinical nursing practice and quality control of SE patients.

Objective:To translate the Intermittent Catheterization Difficulty Questionnaire (ICDQ) into Chinese, and to test its reliability and validity in neurogenic bladder patients.Methods:After translation, back-translation, cross-cultural debugging, expert consultation and pre-investigation, a Chinese version of ICDQ was formed. A total of 248 patients with neurogenic bladder clean intermittent self-catheterization who were treated and followed up in the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University in October 2022 were selected as research objects by the convenient sampling method, and the Chinese version of ICDQ was used for investigation. The critical ratio method was used for project analysis. Content validity and structure validity were used to test the validity of the questionnaire. Cronbach's α coefficient, split half reliability coefficient and retest reliability coefficient were used to test the reliability of the questionnaire. A total of 248 questionnaires were sent out in this study, and 238 were effectively collected, with a recovery rate of 95.97% (238/248) .Results:The Cronbach's α coefficient of the Chinese version of ICDQ was 0.857, the split half coefficient was 0.711, and the retest reliability coefficient was 0.954. The content validity index of the Chinese version of ICDQ item level was 0.860 to 1.000, and the content validity index of the scale level was 0.930. Seven common factors were extracted by exploratory factor analysis, and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 77.38%. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed RMSEA < 0.080, GFI, AGFI, TLI, CFI > 0.800. Conclusions:Through confirmatory factor analysis, the Chinese version of ICDQ shows that the model fitting indicators of the scale meet the corresponding requirements, indicating that the scale has high structural validity and overall model fitting. It can be used as an evaluation tool for intermittent self catheterization difficulties in patients with neurogenic bladder.
