Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a life-threatening gastrointestinal disorder for which no effective pharmacological treatments are currently available. One of the pharmacological targets that merits further research is the neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R), which is found on pancreatic acinar cells and responds to the neuropeptide substance P (SP) that participates in AP. Although a few studies have stated the involvement of SP/NK1R in neurogenic inflammation in AP development, the regulatory mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we found that following activation of NK1R by SP, β-arrestin1, a scaffold protein of NK1R, down-regulated transcription of Adss, Adsl, and Ampd in the purine nucleotide cycle, thereby inhibiting mitochondrial function through fumarate depletion. Interestingly, we identified magnolol as a new and natural NK1R inhibitor with a non-nitrogenous biphenyl core structure. It exhibited a beneficial effect on AP by restoring purine nucleotide cycle metabolic enzymes and fumarate levels. Our study not only provides new therapeutic strategies, leading compounds, and drug translation possibilities for AP, but also provides important clues for the study of downstream mechanisms driven by SP in other diseases.

Objective:To construct an esophageal language rehabilitation program for patients after total laryngectomy (TL) based on the behavioral change wheel theory and exploring its application effects.Methods:The multidisciplinary team constructed the first draft of the esophageal language rehabilitation program for patients after TL based on the behavioral change wheel theory, combined with a literature review, and used an expert meeting to revise the rehabilitation program to form the final draft of the program. Adopting experimental research, 35 patients after TL who attended the nursing outpatient clinic of Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University from February 2023 to May 2023 were selected as the control group by convenience sampling method, and 35 patients after TL who attended the nursing outpatient clinic from June 2023 to September 2023 were selected as the experimental group. The experimental group applied the TL postoperative patients′ esophageal language rehabilitation program based on the behavioral change wheel theory on the basis of conventional nursing measures, and the control group received conventional nursing care. The status of language rehabilitation training, quality of life, social behavioral status, and anxiety and depression status before intervention, 1, 3, 6 months after intervention were compared between the two groups.Results:Both groups of patients completed the study. There were 29 males and 6 females in the control group, with an age of (54.63 ± 10.44) years old. There were 34 males and 1 female in the experimental group, with an age of (55.17 ± 10.67) years old. There was no statistically significant difference in the language rehabilitation training status, quality of life, social behavior status, and anxiety and depression status between the two groups before intervention (all P>0.05). The total scores of speech rehabilitation training in the experimental group at 1, 3, and 6 months after intervention were (32.80 ± 2.49), (39.80 ± 2.75), (51.91 ± 4.20) points, respectively, which were higher than those in the control group (23.40 ± 3.42), (24.40 ± 3.42), (25.80 ± 3.42) points, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=14.53, 23.44, 32.70, all P<0.05). The total scores of quality of life in the experimental group at 1, 3, and 6 months after intervention were (98.91 ± 8.49), (134.66 ± 11.31), (157.97 ± 13.97) points, respectively, which were higher than those in the control group (67.06 ± 7.64), (72.16 ± 7.64), (99.46 ± 8.09) points, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=17.53, 30.16, 21.45, all P<0.05). The scores for social occasion diet and language comprehension in the experimental group at 1, 3, and 6 months after intervention were (40.41 ± 13.94), (40.43 ± 24.08), (40.60 ± 18.56), and (43.71 ± 12.26), (47.40 ± 17.09), (52.50 ± 13.82), respectively, which were higher than those in the control group (30.59 ± 15.98), (30.57 ± 18.28), (27.21 ± 15.27), and (27.29 ± 15.13), (23.60 ± 14.78), (19.50 ± 12.78), and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were -6.88-2.16, all P<0.05).

Objective:To assess respondents' understanding of the items in the Neck Dissection Impairment Index (NDII) through cognitive interviews and to revise the items accordingly.Methods:Totally 30 postoperative neck dissection patients returning for follow-up at Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University from November 2023 to February 2024, were selected by purposive sampling for two rounds of cognitive interviews. Based on the interview results, the Chinese version of the NDII was revised.Results:The Chinese version of the NDII included ten items. The first round of interviews identified issues such as "incomplete expression, abstract language, and written form, " leading to revisions of five items. The second round of interviews showed that all respondents understood the revised items, and no new suggestions for modification were made.Conclusions:Cognitive interviews can improve respondents' comprehension of the Chinese version of the NDII, identify cognitive biases caused by cultural differences and improper linguistic expressions during the translation process, and enhance the understanding and acceptance of the scale's content among the target population.

Objective To explore the epidemiological characteristics and cost structure of hospitalized patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD)in a tertiary comprehensive hospital in Xi'an from 2014 to 2023.Methods The first page information of AECOPD inpatients in a hospital from January 2014 to December 2023 was col-lected(n=6 748),and the distribution of their demographic characteristics and clinical characteristics as well as the composition of hospitalization expenses were retrospectively analyzed,and the structural change degree was used to analyze the structural change of hospitalization expenses in different years.Results AECOPD patients diagnosed and hospitalized accounted for 4.81 ‰ of all hospitalized patients in this institution from 2014-2023,the proportion of AECOPD inpatients showed a continuous downward trend during 10 years(x2=1 083.351,P＜0.001);The distribution of gender,occupation,medical payment meth-ods,and sources of AECOPD inpatients in different years showed statistical differences(P＜0.05);There is a statistical differ-ence in the seasonal distribution of AECOPD inpatients in different years(x2=157.328,P＜0.001);There is a statistical difference in the average length of hospital stay among AECOPD inpatients in different years(x2=83.463,P＜0.001);There were statistically significant differences in the proportion of hospitalizations,admission conditions,comorbidities or complications,history of drug allergies,and readmission plans among AECOPD patients in different years(P＜0.05);There is a statistical difference in the outcomes of hospitalized AECOPD patients in different years(x2=153.367,P＜0.001);The average hospital-ization cost of AECOPD patients gradually increased from 2014-2016,and gradually decreased from 2016-2023(P＜0.01);The hospitalization expenses of AECOPD patients in different years are mainly based on drug expenses and diagnostic expenses;The overall degree of structural change(DSV)of average hospitalization expenses for AECOPD patients from 2014-2022 was 41.62％,with the highest DSV of hospitalization expenses in 2012-2013(22.69％)and the lowest DSV in 2017-2018(4.23％);The proportion of drug expenses in the average hospitalization cost of AECOPD patients continued to decline,while diagnostic expenses,hygiene material expenses,medical service expenses,and nursing expenses showed an overall increasing trend from 2014-2023.Conclusion The proportion and mortality rate of hospitalized AECOPD patients have shown an overall downward trend in the past 10 years;The proportion of hospitalized AECOPD patients in the age group of 70-79 is the highest,mainly distributed in winter;The overall average hospitalization cost over the past 10 years has shown a downward trend,with drug and diagnostic expenses as the main components.Drug expenses have been decreasing year by year,while diagnostic expen-ses have been increasing year by year.This indicates that medical policy reform plays a significant role in optimizing the hospitali-zation cost structure and controlling unreasonable cost growth.

Objective To analyze the clinical effect of ultrasound-guided quadratus lumborum block(QLB)and erector spinae plane block(ESPB)in elderly patients with laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery.Methods A total of 75 elderly patients who underwent elective laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer in wenzhou central hospital,from August 2021 to March 2022 were selected and divided into quadratus lumborum group(group Q,n=25),erector spinae muscle group(group E,n=25)and group C(n=25).Group Q received QLB combined with general anesthesia,group E received ESPB combined with general anesthesia,the group C was given tracheal intubation with total intravenous general anesthesia.The perioperative anesthesia and analgesic dosage,postoperative recovery quality,resting and cough visual analogue scale(VAS)scores were compared among the groups.Results In contrast to the group C,the number of effective PCIA compressions,the dose of sufentanil,and the analgesic rescue rate were significantly decreased in groups Q and E(P<0.05);In contrast to the the group C,the spontaneous breathing,eye opening and tracheal extubation time of patients in group Q and group E were apparently shortened(P<0.05),and patients in group Q and group E recovered indoor nausea and vomiting,lethargy,restlessness and respiratory depression The number of cases was apparently reduced(P<0.05);at each time point from 2 to 48 hours after operation,compared with the group C,the VAS scores at rest and cough in groups Q and E were apparently decreased(P<0.05).However,there was no significant difference in the above indicators between the group Q and the group E(all P>0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided QLB and ESPB for laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery can both improve the quality of recovery and achieve satisfactory analgesia in elderly patients.

Objective:To construct the nursing quality evaluation index system for Laryngeal Cancer Rehabilitation Nursing Clinic.Methods:The nursing quality evaluation index system for Laryngeal Cancer Rehabilitation Nursing Clinic was constructed through literature analysis and survey research.

Objective:To investigate the expression of promyelocytic leukemia zinc finger (PLZF) in human peripheral blood with asthma and its clinical significance.Methods:Forty patients with stable asthma from May 2021 to October 2021 in the Department of Respiratory Medicine of the Shanghai Fifth People's Hospital were enrolled, and forty healthy controls were recruited in the study. The levels of cytokines in serum were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) was used to detect the expression of PLZF mRNA in plasma. The level and distribution of PLZF+ cells in PBMCs were detected by flow cytometry after isolating peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Independent sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ 2 test, ROC curve and Logistic regression were used to analyze the results with SPSS 26.0 and Graphpad Prism 7.0. A P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:The levels of cytokines IFN-γ, IL-2, IL-4, TNF-α and IL-17 in human peripheral blood from the asthma group were obviously higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05), whereas there was no significant difference in the level of cytokine IL-10 between the two groups. The level of PLZF mRNA in PBMCs from the asthma group was significantly up-regulated compared to that in the control group [(3.40%±2.52%) vs. (1.23%±0.78%), P<0.05]. CD8+PLZF+ and Vβ11+PLZF+T cells in the asthma group were significantly outnumbered than those in the control group ( P<0.05). Logistic regression and ROC curve analysis showed that PLZF expression in PBMC was a risk factor for the development of asthma ( OR =3.67, AUC=0.87, P<0.05). Conclusions:The high expression of PLZF in peripheral blood may play an important role in the development of asthma, which needs to be further confirmed by large sample studies.
