Objective:To explore the latent profile characteristics of fatigue in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) complicated by radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis (RIPF), and to provide evidence for developing precision nursing strategies.Methods:A convenience sample of 120 patients with RIPF and NSCLC who received treatment at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between January 2022 and December 2023 was recruited. Baseline demographic and clinical data and the Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory (MFI) were collected. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was performed to classify fatigue levels, and multinomial logistic regression was used to identify influencing factors. A total of 120 questionnaires were distributed, and 116 valid responses were obtained, with a valid response rate of 96.67% (116/120) .Results:LPA identified three latent classes of fatigue among the 116 patients: the physiological-cognitive compound fatigue group ( n=52), the emotional-sleep disturbance group ( n=38), and the mildly adaptive group ( n=26). Multinomial logistic regression revealed that age, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG-PS), Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS), sleep quality, and anxiety were significant factors associated with the physiological-cognitive compound fatigue group ( P<0.05). Sleep quality, anxiety, depression, pain, and KPS were significant factors associated with the emotional-sleep disturbance group ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Patients with RIPF and NSCLC can be classified into three subtypes of fatigue. Differentiated nursing strategies should be developed accordingly to achieve precise and individualized interventions.

Oral diseases concern almost every individual and are a serious health risk to the popula-tion.The restorative treatment of tooth and jaw defects is an important means to achieve oral function and support the appearance of the contour.Based on the principle of"learning from the nature",Deng Xu-liang's group of Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology has proposed a new concept of"microstructural biomimetic design and tissue adaptation of tooth/jaw materials"to address the worldwide problems of difficulty in treating dentine hypersensitivity,poor prognosis of restoration of tooth defects,and vertical bone augmentation of alveolar bone after tooth loss.The group has broken through the bottle-neck of multi-stage biomimetic technology from the design of microscopic features to the enhancement of macroscopic effects,and invented key technologies such as crystalline/amorphous multi-level assembly,ion-transportation blocking,and multi-physical properties of the micro-environment reconstruction,etc.The group also pioneered the cationic-hydrogel desensitizer,digital stump and core integrated restora-tions,and developed new crown and bridge restorative materials,gradient functionalisation guided tissue regeneration membrane,and electrically responsive alveolar bone augmentation restorative membranes,etc.These products have established new clinical strategies for tooth/jaw defect repair and achieved inno-vative results.In conclusion,the research results of our group have strongly supported the theoretical im-provement of stomatology,developed the technical system of oral hard tissue restoration,innovated the clinical treatment strategy,and led the progress of the stomatology industry.

Objective To explore the research status and future development trends of nursing case teaching at home and abroad,and to provide reference and guidance for the development of case teaching in nursing profession in China.Methods Data sources include the China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang Data,and Web of Science databases.The CiteSpace software was used to visually analyze the research status and trends of nursing case teaching from January 2013 to Octo-ber 2023,covering nearly 11 years.Results A total of 2 889 valid articles were extracted.The important literature on nursing case teaching in China experienced a period of stable growth followed by rapid growth from 2013 to 2021.However,the number of publications and the number of publications in core journals on nursing case teaching abroad were higher than those in China.After 2021,both domestic and foreign publications on nursing case teaching showed a slow decline.The research on nursing case teaching in both domestic and foreign contexts is mainly conducted by universities,and the collaborative relationships between for-eign institutions and scholars are stronger than those within China.The research topics and hotspots in both domestic and foreign contexts are concentrated on the teaching applications for nursing students.Conclusion Nursing case teaching in China contin-ues to attract attention;however,compared to nursing case teaching abroad,the depth and breadth of research need to be further improved.Additionally,the collaboration between domestic authors and institutions is relatively limited.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic factors of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) with initial surgical resection.Methods:The retro-spective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 847 GIST patients who under-went initial surgical resection in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute & Hospital from January 2011 to December 2020 were collected. There were 405 males and 442 females, aged (60±10)years. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the nonparameter rank sum test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rates. Univariate analysis was conducted using the Log-rank test. Multivariate analysis was conducted using the COX regression model. Results:(1) Clinicopatholo-gical characteristics. Of 847 patients, the tumor primary location was stomach in 585 cases, jejunum and ileum in 142 cases, duodenum in 76 cases, colorectum in 10 cases, esophagus in 3 cases, and extra-gastrointestinal in 31 cases. There were 13 cases with liver metastasis and 22 cases with abdominal metastasis. The tumor maximum diameter was (7±5)cm, and the number of nuclear divisions was 4(range, 0-60) cells/50 high-power field or 5 mm 2. According to risk classification of National Institutes of Health (NIH), 31 cases were of extremely low risk, 238 cases were of low risk, 213 cases were of moderate risk, 365 cases were of high risk. There were 839 of 847 patients positive for CD117, 788 cases positive for Dog-1, 710 cases positive for CD34, respectively. There were 272 cases with Ki-67 <5%, 214 cases with Ki-67 of 5%- 9%, 198 cases with Ki-67 ≥10%, 163 cases with missing data. R 0 resection was in 814 cases and non-R 0 resection was in 33 cases. (2) Gene testing and postoperative adjuvant therapy of GIST patients. ① Gene testing. Of 847 patients, 424 underwent genetic testing. The proportion of genetic testing was 1.89%(1/53) in 2011, 9.76%(8/82) in 2012, 8.45%(6/71) in 2013, 15.66%(13/83) in 2014, 50.00%(40/80) in 2015, 55.26%(42/76) in 2016, 73.86%(65/88) in 2017, 68.27%(71/104) in 2018, 80.65%(75/93) in 2019, 88.03%(103/117) in 2020, respectively. Of 424 with genetic testing, 338 cases had KIT mutation, 31 cases had PDGFRA mutation, 55 cases were wild type. ② Adjuvant therapy. Of 847 patients, 253 patients underwent postoperative adjuvant therapy. The proportions of postoperative adjuvant therapy were 8.82%(21/238), 41.78%(89/213), 39.18%(143/365) in patients of low risk, moderate risk, high risk. Of 578 patients with moderate to high risk, the proportion of postoperative adjuvant therapy was 15.15%(5/33) in 2011, 14.71%(10/68)in 2012, 22.45%(11/49) in 2013, 29.09%(16/55) in 2014, 41.38%(24/58) in 2015, 46.15%(24/52) in 2016, 32.81%(21/64)in 2017, 60.00%(45/75) in 2018, 60.42%(29/48) in 2019, 61.84%(47/76) in 2020, respectively. Of 253 patients underwent postoperative adjuvant therapy, 247 cases received imatinib had 6 cases received sunitinib. (3) Comparison of clinicopathological characteristics of GIST with non-gastric origin and gastric origin. Of 847 patients, 262 cases had non-gastric origin and 585 cases had gastric origin. There were significant differences in gender, the number of tumor, tumor maximum diameter, Ki-67 index, risk classification of NIH, and R 0 resection between the two groups ( χ2=8.62, 8.40, 12.97, 6.57, Z=-6.15, χ2=17.19, P<0.05). (4) Analysis of influencing factors for recurrence-free survival rate in GIST patients. Results of multivariate analysis showed that the year of initial diagnosis, primary site, tumor maximum diameter, mitotic image, risk classification of NIH, R 0 resection, genetic testing and postoperative adjuvant therapy were independent factors influencing recurrence-free survival rate in GIST patients with initial surgical resection ( hazard ratio=0.58, 0.61, 2.00, 1.71, 5.81, 2.56, 0.65, 0.38, 95% confidence interval as 0.39-0.85, 0.45-0.83, 1.46-2.74, 1.24-2.35, 3.16-10.69, 1.63-4.02, 0.46-0.94, 0.25-0.56, P<0.05). Conclusions:GIST with initial surgical resection is common located in stomach, with high positive rate in CD117 and Dog-1. The number of people undergoing genetic testing and targeted therapy for GIST is increasing year by year. There are significant differ-ences in clinicopathological characteristics between GIST with non-gastric origin and gastric origin. The year of initial diagnosis, primary site, tumor maximum diameter, mitotic image, risk classifica-tion of NIH, R 0 resection, genetic testing and postoperative adjuvant therapy are independent factors influencing recurrence-free survival rate in GIST patients with initial surgical resection.

The incidence of adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction is gradually increa-sing. The metastasis of the distal lymph node of upper gastric cancer with tumor diameter <4 cm is rare, and proximal gastrectomy can meet the requirements of radical treatment. Reflux esophagitis, food stasis, anastomotic stenosis, and poor nutrient absorption are important factors affecting the quality of life of patients undergoing proximal gastrectomy. With the continuous promotion of laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with lymph node dissection has been standardized. However, the method of digestive tract reconstruction has not yet reached standardization consensus, and anti-reflux has become a hot spot in clinical attention in recent years. Through interpositioned jejunum reconstruction to achieve anti-reflux effect, or retaining or rebuilding the anti-flow structure of esophageal residual gastric anastomosis include a variety of additional anti-reflux surgery, which have their own different advantages and disadvan-tages. The authors introduce in detail a variety of mainstream anti-reflux surgery, and its modified program, with the aim of providing reference for colleagues and maximizing the benefits of patients.

BACKGROUND: Immune checkpoint inhibitor associated pneumonia (CIP) is a serious side effect of immune checkpoint inhibitors. There is a consensus on the treatment of acute phase of CIP, but the treatment of pulmonary interstitial fibrosis after the acute phase is still a clinical problem to be solved. METHODS: The diagnosis and treatment of a non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patient with immune checkpoint inhibitor associated pneumonia in the Stereotactic Radiotherapy Department of Qingdao Central Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, and literatures were reviewed. RESULTS: A 70-year-old male patient was diagnosed with Poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of left lung with mediastinal lymph node metastasis T3N3M0 stage IIIc, EGFR/ALK/ROS1/RAF negative, PD-L1 (22c3) immunohistochemistry negative. After the progression of first-line chemotherapy, the patient was diagnosed as immune checkpoint inhibitor associated pneumonia grade 3 during second-line monotherapy with Nivolumab. After initial high-dose glucocorticoid pulse therapy, the lung computed tomography (CT) imaging and clinical symptoms of the patients were partially relieved, and then pirfenidone (300 mg tid) was given orally for more than 11 months. During the treatment of pirfenidone, the CT imaging and clinical symptoms of the patients were significantly improved, and there were no other adverse reactions except grade 1 nausea. During this period, chemotherapy and Anlotinib was given concurrently with pirfenidone and showed good safety profile. CONCLUSIONS This case report is the first report of pirfenidone in the treatment of CIP, which provides a new idea for the clinical practice and research of CIP treatment.
