OBJECTIVE To explore the differences in the clinical laboratory test indexes between the patients with two different TCM syndrome types of eczema(dampness-heat infiltration type and non-dampness-heat infiltration type)and observe the distribution and drug resistance rate of pathogens isolated from the skin lesions so as to pro-vide bases for syndrome differentiation and reasonable use of antibiotics.METHODS A total of 180 patients with eczema who were positive for bacterial culture of skin secretions and were treated in Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from Jan.2021 to Dec.2023 were enrolled in the study and were divided into the dampness-heat infiltration group with 134 cases and the non-dampness-heat infiltration group with 46 cases.The data of clini-cal laboratory test indexes were collected from the two groups of patients,the secretion specimens were sampled from the skin lesion sites,the isolated pathogens were identified by VITEK 2 Compact automatic microorganism analysis system,and the drug susceptibility testing was performed.RESULTS The direct bilirubin level of the dampness-heat infiltration group was(3.99±1.62)umol/L,higher than(3.46±1.12)umol/L of the non-damp-ness-heat infiltration group(P＜0.05),but both were in the normal range;there were no significant differences in other test indexes between the two groups.Totally 180 strains of pathogens were isolated from the 180 patients with eczema,156(86.67％)of which were gram-positive bacteria;Staphylococcus aureus(98 strains),Staphy-lococcus epidermidis(29 strains)and Staphylococcus haemolyticus(15 strains)were the predominant species of the gram-positive bacteria.The gram-negative bacteria accounted for 12.22％(22 strains).The drug resistance rate of the S.aureus strains to penicillin was up to 82.65％,and the isolation rate of methicillin-resistant Staphy-lococcus aureus(MRSA)was 12.24％(12/98);the drug resistance rates of the S.epidermidis strains to penicil-lin and erythromycin were 75.86％,and the drug resistance rate of the S.haemolyticus strains to erythromycin was 100.00％.CONCLUSIONS The gram-positive bacteria(dominated by the S.aureus)are dominant among the pathogens isolated from the skin lesion specimens of the eczema patients and are highly resistant to penicillin and erythromycin.The isolation rate of MRSA is relatuvely low.There is limited clinical significant difference in the direct bilirubin between the two groups.It is necessary to further explore more reliable indexes for syndrome dif-ferentiation.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the reasons for the outbreak of suspected carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB)infections in the neurosurgical intensive care unit to take comprehensive prevention and con-trol measures to control the spread of infections,and to provide a reference for the control of multidrug-resistant organisms(MDRO)infections in intensive care units.METHODS Epidemiological data were collected from five patients with CRAB infections in the neurosurgical intensive care unit of Gansu Provincial People's Hospital in Mar.2024,and environmental hygiene monitoring and comprehensive infection prevention and control measures were conducted.RESULTS A total of five cases of lower respiratory tract infections occurred,all of which were hospital-acquired infections,and all patients had consistent spatial-temporal distribution.A.baumannii was detec-ted in the sputum cultures of all patients,and all were resistant to carbapenems,aminoglycosides and some β-lac-tam drugs.Before the implementation of comprehensive prevention and control measures,a total of 25 samples from the surfaces and the hands of health workers were collected,with a pass rate of 52.00％;CRAB was detected on the surface of treatment carts and the wall of sputum suction bottles in the treatment room,with a detection rate of 8.00％.After the implementation,a total of 24 samples were collected,with a pass rate of 100.00％,and the difference was statistically significant when compared with the pre-implementation period(χ2=16.987,P<0.001).Through the implementation of comprehensive measures such as isolation,standardization of the ward cleaning and disinfection process,strengthening hand hygiene,standardization of sterile operations and personnel management,the indicators such as hand hygiene compliance rate,the execution rate of multi-drug-resistant bac-terial preventive and control measures and the fluorescent marker removal rate were all improved,and the suspec-ted CRAB infection outbreak was timely controlled.CONCLUSION This suspected CRAB hospital-acquired infec-tion outbreak may be related to a variety of factors,and timely environmental hygiene monitoring and comprehen-sive infection prevention and control measures can effectively control the spread of CRAB infection.

Objective To investigate the effect of ventilation with different tidal volumes on respiratory mechanics and haemodynamics in children with severe pneumonia.Methods A total of 104 children with severe pneumonia were divided into the control group and the observation group using a random number table method,with 52 cases in each group.Both groups underwent mechanical ventilation treatment.The control group was treated with conventional tidal volume of 10-12 mL/kg,while the observation group was given a low tidal volume of 6-8 mL/kg.The respiratory mechanics indicators,hemodynamic indicators and inflammatory factor indicators before and after treatment were compared between the two groups.Results After treatment,the airway resistance(AR)and airway closing pressure(AOP)were lower in the observation group than those of the control group(P＜0.05),and pulmonary dynamic compliance(Cdyn)was higher in the observation group than that of the control group(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP)and central venous pressure(CVP)after treatment between the two groups(P＜0.05).After treatment,the levels of interleukin(IL)-6,IL-8 and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)were all lower in the observation group than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Small tidal volume mechanical ventilation is effective in improving the respiratory mechanics of children with severe pneumonia without causing large fluctuations in their hemodynamics.At the same time,it can reduce the level of inflammatory factors in the organism.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of Osteoglycin(OGN)mRNA and Axis inhibitory protein 1(Axin1)mRNA and Epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)and prognosis in cervical cancer(CC).Methods 142 patients with CC who were treated in Yulin Hospital,the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from April 2019 to April 2021 were collected.Real time fluorogenic quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)was used to detect the expression of OGN mRNA,Axin1 mRNA and EMT markers Snail mRNA,N-cadherin(N-cad)mRNA,Vimentin(Vim)mRNA.The expression of OGN and Axin1 protein was detected by immunohistochemistry(IHC).Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between OGN mRNA,Axin1 mRNA and EMT indicators Snail mRNA,N-cad mRNA,Vim mRNA.The effect of OGN and Axin1 protein expression on the survival of CC was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier(K-M)survival curve and COX model.Results Compared with adjacent tissues,the expression of OGN mRNA in CC cancer tissues(0.84±0.22 vs 2.01±0.38)was lower,and the expression of Axin1 mRNA(2.41±0.42 vs 1.02±0.33)was higher,the differences were statistically significant(t=31.752,31.010,all P<0.001).Pearson correlation analysis,the expression of OGN mRNA was negatively correlated with that of Snail mRNA,N-cad mRNA and Vim mRNA(r=-0.765,-0.703,-0.697,all P<0.001).The expression of Axin1 mRNA was positively correlated with that of Snail mRNA,N-cad mRNA and Vim mRNA(r=0.771,0.798,0.690,all P<0.001).Compared with adjacent tissues,the positive rate of OGN protein in CC cancer tissues was lower[28.17%(40/142)vs 88.03%(125/142)],and the positive rate of Axin1 protein was higher[69.01%(98/142)vs 11.27%(16/142)],the differences were statistically significant(χ2=73.185,98.535,all P<0.001).Compared with patients with ⅠA-ⅠB1 and no lymph node metastasis,the positive rate of OGN protein in cancer tissues of patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics(FIGO)stage Ⅰ B2-Ⅱ A and lymph node metastasis was lower,and the positive rate of Axin1 protein was higher,and the differences were statistically significant(χ2=4.315～13.252,all P<0.05).The 3-year overall survival rates of OGN positive group and negative group were 90.00%(36/40)and 70.59%(72/102),respectively,and the difference was statistically significant(Log-Rankχ2=7.140,P=0.008).The 3-year overall survival rates of Axin1 positive group and negative group were 69.39%(68/98)and 90.91%(40/44),respectively,and the difference was statistically significant(Log-Rankχ2=9.061,P=0.003).Axin1 positive,FIGO stage IB2～ⅡB,lymph node metastasis were risk factors for poor survival of CC,and OGN positive was a protective factor(Wald χ2=6.250～12.278,all P<0.05).Conclusion OGN is down-regulated and Axin1 is up-regulated in CC,which are related to EMT indicators and adverse survival outcomes of CC patients.

Objective To investigate the current status of family resilience of children with cancer and analyze its influencing factors,to provide a basis for medical staff to formulate intervention plans.Methods Using a convenient sampling method,children with cancer who were hospitalized in 2 tertiary hospitals in Henan Province from January to April 2024 were selected for the survey.A general information questionnaire,family resilience assessment scale,quality of life family version,ZBI caregiver burden interview,and social support rating scale were used to understand the current status of family resilience of children with cancer and to explore the related influencing factors by univariate analysis and multiple stepwise linear regression analysis.Results A total of 280 questionnaires were distributed and 265 valid questionnaires were recovered,with a valid questionnaire recovery rate of 94.64％.The total score of family resilience for primary caregivers of children with cancer was(185.63±30.66).The multiple stepwise linear regression analysis results showed that the children's self-care ability,caregiver's work status,family care burden,and social support level were the influencing factors for family resilience of children with cancer(P＜0.05),and the explanatory variance was 51.3％.Conclusion The family resilience of children with cancer is at a medium level.The worse the children's self-care ability and the heavier the family care burden,the worse the family resilience;the caregiver's work status and good social support are helpful for the family resilience of children with cancer.Healthcare workers should develop intervention programs to address these factors to enhance the family resilience of children with cancer.

The paper presents a case of 69-year-old male with marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) manifesting as acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring emergency hemodialysis. The patient presented with fever, fatigue and rapidly progressive renal dysfunction, and serum creatinine was 1 105 μmol/L. Emergency central venous catheterization and hemodialysis were performed. Serum immunofixation electrophoresis revealed monoclonal IgM and λ light chain positivity. Autoantibody testing showed positivity for both anti-SSA and anti-SSB antibodies. Renal biopsy demonstrated interstitial infiltration by atypical B lymphocytes with λ light chain restriction. The diagnosis of MZL was confirmed by bone marrow biopsy. Following hemodialysis and chemotherapy with bendamustine plus rituximab, renal function significantly improved and remained stable during follow-up. This case highlights that AKI may serve as the initial manifestation of lymphoma, underscoring the importance of considering hematologic malignancies in the differential diagnosis of unexplained renal failure.

In recent years,the incidence of childhood cancer has shown a steady upward trend.Due to the unique nature of this disease,the issue of affiliate stigma among primary caregivers of children with cancer has gradually drawn attention.Affiliate stigma not only directly affects caregivers' mental health and quality of life,but also leads to reduced social support and lower self-efficacy,thereby impacting their engagement in the caregiving process and affecting the treatment adherence and prognosis of children with cancer indirectly.This article provides a review covering 5 main areas:the conceptual definition of affiliate stigma,measurement tools,influencing factors,intervention strategies,and insights and recommendations,to provide a theoretical basis and guidance for subsequent research and the development of interventions.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of shared decision-making intervention with nurses as "decision coaches" in perioperative decision management of bladder cancer patients.Methods:From March 2023 to February 2024, 152 bladder cancer patients in the Department of Urology Surgery of Xinxiang Central Hospital for surgical treatment were selected by convenience sampling. The patients were divided into control group and observation group of 76 cases each using the randomized numerical table method. Control group implemented conventional bladder cancer surgical decision management, and observation group implemented a shared decision-making intervention with nurses as "decision coaches" on this basis, and the intervention period was one week before surgery. Decisional Conflict Scale (DCS), Preparation Decision Making (PrepDM), Patients Satisfaction with Participation in Medical Decision-making Scale, and Decision Regret Scale (DRS) scores were compared between the two groups of patients before and after intervention.Results:Finally 74 patients in control group and 75 patients in observation group completed the study. After the intervention, the DCS scores of observation group were lower than those of control group and before the intervention, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). After the intervention, the PrepDM scores of observation group were higher than those of control group and before the intervention, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). One week after surgery, observation group had higher decision-making participation satisfaction scores and lower DRS scores than control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05) . Conclusions:Preoperative shared decision-making interventions with nurses as "decision coaches" in bladder cancer patients can effectively reduce preoperative decision conflicts, increase preoperative decision readiness and participation satisfaction with decision-making, and decrease patients' postoperative decision regret.

Objective:To retrieve, evaluate, and summarize the best evidence on ultrasound-guided placement and tip confirmation of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) in neonates.Methods:Based on the "6S" evidence pyramid model, literature on ultrasound-guided placement and tip confirmation of PICC in neonates was sequentially searched on guideline websites, professional society websites, and journal databases. The search period was from database establishment to September 30, 2024. Two researchers used uniform criteria for independent quality assessment and evidence extraction from the literature, and the extracted evidence was integrated and summarized.Results:A total of ten articles were included, including five guidelines, one clinical decision, two expert consensus, one Meta-analysis, and one evidence summary. Thirty pieces of evidence were developed in six aspects: personnel qualification and training, catheter selection, assessment of placement veins, ultrasound-guided PICC puncture in neonates, PICC tip confirmation in neonates, and prevention and management of malposition.Conclusions:This study summarizes the best evidence for ultrasound-guided placement and tip confirmation of PICC in neonates. It is recommended that evidence be selected and applied to develop a standardized process for neonatal PICC placement in conjunction with the resource environment of the department and the skill level of the healthcare professionals to improve the quality of nursing and to ensure the safe and effective use of the PICC in clinical practice.
