Objective:To analyze the physical activity level of patients treated with a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary artery disease in the early out-of-hospital recovery phase, and the factors influencing it.Methods:Patients who had been discharged within the previous 6 months after their first PCI treatment were surveyed using a general information questionnaire, the long form of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), the Chinese version of the Tilburg Frailty Scale, the Social Support Rating Scale, and for their ability in the activities of daily living. Epidemiological descriptive methods were used to analyze the reported physical activity levels, and multifactoral logistic regression was applied to explore the influencing factors. The receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of the risk factors.Results:A total of 394 former patients were surveyed, including 117 (30%) reporting a low level of physical activity, 202 (51%) describing a moderate level and 75 (19%) claiming a high level. The univariate analysis revealed significant differences in physical activity levels among those of different ages, with different chronic co-morbidities, and with different frailty and self-care ability. Multifactoral logistic regression analysis showed that advanced age, chronic co-morbidities, frailty and little self-care ability are significant predictors of a low level of physical activity. The area under the ROC curve for predicting the physical activity level by combining those four factors was 0.89 (95% CI 0.84-0.94), with a sensitivity of 0.89 and a specificity of 0.80. Conclusions:The physical activity level of patients treated with PCI for coronary disease is moderately low early after their release from the hospital. Targeted intervention to increase it is called for.

BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant therapeutic strategies play a pivotal role in the comprehensive treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, lung squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) generally exhibits a more favorable response to neoadjuvant therapy compared with lung adenocarcinoma (ADC). The aim of this study is to elucidate how baseline cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and tumor-associated endothelial cells (TAECs) influence the differential therapeutic outcomes of neoadjuvant treatment in SCC versus ADC. METHODS: We retrospectively collected pretreatment biopsy samples from 104 patients with stage II-III NSCLC who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) or neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy (NAIC) at Shandong Cancer Hospital between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2023. Tissue microarrays were constructed using an automated arrayer, and multiplex immunofluorescence staining (α-SMA/CD31/CK/DAPI) was performed to identify CAFs (α-SMA+/CK-) and TAECs (CD31+/CK-). Quantitative analyses included CAFs and TAECs densities, the nearest neighbor distance (NND) between CAFs and TAECs, and their spatial proximity (30 μm). Differences in major pathological response (MPR) between groups, defined as residual viable tumor cells ≤10% in resected specimens after neoadjuvant therapy, were assessed using the χ² test. The Mann-Whitney U test was applied to analyze intergroup differences in quantitative indicators, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was conducted to evaluate the predictive performance of immune-related markers for MPR in the NAIC cohort. RESULTS: Among the 104 NSCLC patients who received neoadjuvant therapy, 35 underwent NAIC and 69 received NAC. Overall, patients with SCC were more likely to achieve MPR compared with those with ADC (50.0% vs 22.4%, P=0.006). This trend persisted in the NAIC subgroup (72.7% vs 30.8%, P=0.038), whereas no significant difference in MPR rates was observed between SCC and ADC in the NAC subgroup. At baseline, prior to NAIC or NAC, programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1)/programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) expression, CAFs and TAECs densities, CAFs-TAECs NND, and CAFs-TAECs proximity (30 μm) showed no significant differences between SCC and ADC. In patients with SCC receiving NAIC, baseline PD-L1/PD-1 expression, CAFs density, and TAECs density showed not significant differences between MPR and NMPR groups. However, the CAFs-TAECs distance was significantly greater in the MPR group (NND: 31.2 vs 24.7 μm, P=0.038), and the number of TAECs within 30 μm of CAFs was significantly lower (proximity: 1.1 vs 3.6, P=0.038). Univariate Cox regression analysis indicated that low TAECs density was associated with MPR following NAIC (OR=36.00, 95%CI: 2.68-1486.88, P=0.019). Furthermore, ROC analysis demonstrated that baseline CAFs-TAECs NND and proximity (30 μm) exhibited strong predictive performance for MPR in SCC patients treated with NAIC, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.893, sensitivity of 0.857, and specificity of 1.000. CONCLUSIONS CAFs are more spatially distant from TAECs and more prone to MPR after NAIC in SCC, which may be related to the reduced interaction of CAFs with TAECs and reduced tumor-associated angiogenesis.

Objective To explore the potential categories and influencing factors of cognitive function trajectories in elderly hemodialysis patients.Methods A convenience sampling method was used to select elderly patients undergoing hemodialysis in the blood purification center of a tertiary hospital in Beijing,China,from June 2022 to June 2024.A general information questionnaire,the Short Physical Performance Battery,the Patients Health Questionnaire-9,the Impact on Participation and Autonomy Questionnaire,the Hemodialysis Self-Management Instrument,and the Mini-Mental State Examination,were used to collect data at the time of enrollment.Cognitive function was evaluated at the time of enrollment and 6,12,18,and 24 months after enrollment,using latent category growth model to identify trajectory categories,and logistic regression,and decision tree models to analyze the influences on cognitive function trajectories.Results Finally,304 patients were included.A total of 2 trajectories of cognitive function in elderly hemodialysis patients were identified,namely,high-level stable group(63.2％)and low-level declining group(36.8％).Both logistic regression and decision model results showed that the type of dialyzer,body mass index,physical function,and depression status were the factors influencing potential categories of cognitive function for elderly hemodialysis patients.The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves for logistic regression and decision tree models were 0.823[95％CI(0.775,0.870)]and 0.816[95％CI(0.765,0.867)],respectively.Conclusion There is heterogeneity in the cognitive function trajectories of elderly hemodialysis patients,and healthcare professionals can develop targeted interventions according to the influencing factors of the trajectory categories to improve their cognitive function.

Objective:To explore the medication thinking and compatibility rules of TCM for the treatment of diabetic nephropathy (DN).Methods:Relevant journal literature of TCM for the treatment of DN was retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, and CBM from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2023, and a database was established through Excel 2016. Python 3.10 and the ancient and modern medical record cloud platform 2.3.5 were used to conduct Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modeling and association rule analysis to explore the thinking and compatibility rules of TCM prescriptions in the literature.Results:A total of 474 articles were included in the study, including 474 prescriptions, involving 260 kinds of Chinese materia medica, of which 40 kinds of Chinese materia medica with a frequency of ≥ 30, mainly Astragali Radix, Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Dioscoreae Rhizoma, Poria, and Corni Fructus, etc. The LDA topic model identified three groups of prescriptions, including four classic prescriptions: Liuwei Dihuang Pills, Taohong Siwu Decoction, Erzhi Pills, and Wuling Powder. The commonly used drug combinations extracted by association rules were: Rhizoma Alismatis - Poria, Cortex Moutan Radicis-Fructus Corni and Cortex Moutan Radicis - Rhizoma Dioscoreae.Conclusions:The main therapeutic principle of TCM in treating DN is to nourish the yin and tonify the kidney, supplemented by drugs that promoting blood circulation for removing blood stasis as well as promoting urination and draining dampness. In clinical application, modern doctors tend to use classic prescriptions such as Liuwei Dihuang Pills, Erzhi Pills, Taohong Siwu Decoction, and Wuling Powder as the basis, and modify them according to the specific conditions of patients. The LDA topic model can extract valuable prescription information from a large number of modern TCM literature, providing new perspectives and ideas for the study of clinical medication rules in TCM.

Objective To analyze the diagnostic quality of imported malaria in Hubei Province from 2019 to 2022, and to further improve the diagnostic level and consolidate the achievements in eliminating malaria. Methods The samples of reported malaria cases in Hubei were collected by the provincial reference laboratory (PRL) from 2019 to 2022. The microscopy and fluorescent PCR were performed to confirm the infection of plasmodium species of each case．The positive coincidence rate and species coincidence rate were analyzed and compared． Results A total of 257 imported malaria cases were reported in Hubei Province from 2019 to 2022. Among 229 malaria cases were confirmed, the overall coincidence for malaria diagnosis was 91.24% (229/251), and the overall coincidence rate for parasite species identification was 86.03% (197/229). The difference in species coincidence rate among different years was statistically significant (χ²=10.458, P<0.05). The coincidence rates of malaria diagnosis and parasite species identification in different cities (prefectures) of Hubei Province were 71.43% to 100.00% and 50.00% to 100.00%, respectively, with significant differences among different regions (χ²=29.283, P<0.05). The coincidence rates of malaria diagnosis and parasite species identification were 72.73% to 100.00% and 0.00% to 100.00% in different diagnostic institutions, and the coincidence rate of species identification in hospitals (87.61%) was higher than that in Centers for Disease Control institutions (54.55%) (χ²=81.275, P<0.05). The coincidence rates of Plasmodium falciparum, P. vivax, P. malariae, and P. ovale identification were 91.50%, 88.57%, 80.00%, and 58.06%, respectively (χ²=19.777, P<0.05). Conclusion The quality of the qualitative diagnosis of malaria cases reported online from 2019 to 2022 is generally high. However, the ability of Plasmodium typing needs to be improved. In the future, technical training and quality control should be strengthened to improve the malaria surveillance capability during the post-elimination stage.
