Objective To explore and analyze the related factors of kinesiophobia in elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) during cardiac rehabilitation exercise period, and to evaluate the effect of cognitive behavior therapy on improving kinesiophobia and promoting rehabilitation. Methods A total of 352 elderly patients with CHD admitted to the hospital were included from October 2023 to October 2024. Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia-11 (TSK-11) was adopted to evaluate the kinesiophobia status. Patients with kinesiophobia were randomly grouped. Routine intervention (routine group, n=82) and cognitive behavior intervention (study group, n=82) were implemented respectively. The intervention effects were observed in both groups. Results Among the 352 patients, 46.59 % (164/352 ) of elderly patients with coronary heart disease had different degrees of kinesiophobia. The proportions of female, divorced/widowed, revascularization and family relationship disharmony and scores of Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ9) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD7) in patients with kinesiophobia were higher than those in patients without kinesiophobia (P<0.05) while the scores of General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) and Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) were lower compared with those in patients without kinesiophobia (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis found that female, divorced/widowed, family relationship disharmony, revascularization and scores of PHQ9, TSK-11, GAD7, GSES and SSRS were related to kinesiophobia (P<0.05). After intervention, the scores of TSK-11, PHQ9 and GAD7 in the study group were lower while the scores of GSES and SSRS, 6 min walking test distance, and cardiopulmonary exercise test peak oxygen uptake and anaerobic threshold were higher compared to the routine group (P<0.05). Conclusion The kinesiophobia in elderly patients with CHD during cardiac rehabilitation is related to gender, revascularization and psychosocial factors. Clinically, cognitive behavior intervention should be provided according to the situation and guided to carry out rehabilitation exercise regularly so as to promote improvement of cardiopulmonary function.

Objective:To evaluate the outcomes of intensive conservative treatment compared to conventional conservative treatment in patients with acute aortic syndrome(AAS).Methods:The study prospectively enrolled consecutive patients with AAS who were admitted to Beijing Anzhen Hospital, affiliated with Capital Medical University, and Beijing Dawanglu Emergency Rescue Hospital from January 2024 to December 2024. These patients with surgical contraindications or refused surgery for various reasons opted for conservative treatment. A total of 282 patients were included, and 15 patients with missing data or those who died without any treatment were excluded. Finally, 267 patients were enrolled, of whom 94 received intensive conservative treatment, and 173 received conventional conservative treatment, the inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) was used to reduce the influence of confoundings. After adjusting of baseline datas via IPTW, the survival outcomes of the two groups were compared at 14 days, 30 days, and at the end of follow-up.Results:The results showed significant differences in acute phase survival rates between the enhanced conservative treatment group and the conventional conservative treatment group at 14 days(82.40%vs.53.20%, P<0.0001). Significant survival differences were also observed at 30 days and at 276-day mid-term follow-up (96.29% vs.51.60%, P<0.0001; 78.50% vs.48.50%, P<0.0001). In the subgroup analysis, for type A aortic dissection, the enhanced conservative treatment group had higher survival rates compared to the conventional conservative treatment group at 14, 30 and 276 days (63.46% vs.41.35%, P<0.05; 52.17% vs.37.90%, P<0.05; 50.00% vs. 31.97%, P<0.05). However, for type B aortic dissection, although the enhanced conservative treatment group had higher survival rates than the conventional conservative treatment group, no statistically significant differences were observed (96.29% vs. 80.00%, P=0.054; 95.65% vs.78.37%, P=0.067; 94.12% vs.74.20%, P=0.088). Conclusion:For patients diagnosed with AAS are forced to choose conservative treatment if emergency surgery is not possible in the first place, intensive conservative treatment strategies can significantly reduce the mortality in the acute phase compared with conventional conservative treatment. Mid-term follow-up, intensive conservative treatment still has a significant survival advantage.

Objective To investigate the acceptance and satisfaction of tuberculosis prevention and control personnel in Beijing with the patient management system, and to provide a basis for further improving the patient management model. Methods A survey was conducted on the current usage, satisfaction, willingness to use and system improvement opinions of the patient management system among medical staff involved in the supervision and medication management of pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Beijing. Results A total of 360 medical staff participated in the survey. “Patient management” was the function with the largest number of users, accounting for 96.94%. The proportion of users of each module who believed that the module's design met actual work needs was over 90%. About 94.44% of respondents believed that patient management systems facilitated the transfer and sharing of information between institutions. And 90.83% of respondents thought that the patient management system was easy to operate, and 89.17% of respondents believed that patient management systems reduced workload. About 97.50% of respondents were satisfied with the overall use of the patient management system. The results of the influencing factor analysis showed that those with 3 or less modules designed to meet actual work were less satisfied than those with more than 3 modules, and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.001). Respondents put forward suggestions for improvement on the optimization of operational details such as system response speed, interface design, system login and query statistics. Conclusion Medical staff involved in the follow-up management of pulmonary tuberculosis patients are highly satisfied with their work using the patient management system. During the promotion and use, it is still necessary to continuously optimize the system functions according to work needs so that the system can truly facilitate work.

Objective:To analyze the correlation and consistency of urine protein creatinine ratio (UPCR) with 24-hour urine protein quantification (24hUTP) in patients with lupus nephritis (LN).Methods:LN patients were enrolled from the STAR cohort of Peking University First Hospital, The time period is January 1, 2007 to July 31 2024. The correlation and consistency of UPCR with 24hUTP were analyzed in overall patients and various subgroups, such as,the levels of proteinuria and multiple parameters. The correlation was analyzed using Spearman′s method. The consistency was evaluated by using Kappa test, cross tabulation consistency probability, and UPCR/24hUTP ratio.Results:A total of 261 LN patients were included in this study. Overall, UPCR was positively correlated with 24hUTP ( r=0.892, P<0.001), and the consistency between then was good ( Kappa=0.603, P<0.001). Subgroup analysis based on multiple levels including different urine volume, eGFR grading, albumin, urea nitrogen, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, SLEDAI-2K, also revealed good correlation ( r=0.747~0.951; P<0.001) and consistency ( Kappa=0.393~0.771; P<0.001). Patients were divided into subgroups according to the 24hUTP (≤ 0.5 g, >0.5 g to ≤1.0 g, >1.0 g to ≤3.5 g, and>3.5 g). The best correlation and consistency were observed in ≤ 0.5g group ( r=0.728, Kappa=0.395, P<0.001), while the correlation was average or poor in other subgroups ( r=0.16~0.46). The consistency evaluated by UPCR/24hUTP ratio showed good consistency (ratios between 0.8~1.2) in 74 patients (28.4%), however, the unsatisfactory consistency in most patients, with 128 patients (68.4%) having ratios < 0.8, indicating a significantly lower UPCR than 24hUTP, and 59 patients (31.6%) having ratios > 1.2, indicating significantly higher UPCR than 24hUTP.The cross tabulation evaluation showed that the probability of consistency was distributed in a gradient, we found the worst consistency (48.9%) in >0.5 g to ≤1.0 g group, moderate consistency (64.0%) in >1.0 g to ≤3.5 g group, and the best consistency (73.3%) in >3.5 g group. Conclusion:In LN patients, the overall correlation and consistency between UPCR and 24hUTP are good, but the degree of correlation and consistency is closely related to the total amount of proteinuria. When 24hUTP ≤ 0.5 g, UPCR can be used to replace 24hUTP, but UPCR cannot be simply equated with 24hUTP at other urinary protein levels. Detecting 24hUTP to accurately reflect the total amount of proteinuria remain necessary.
