Team management is the key link for improving team work efficiency to achieve team work goals. Currently, there is limited research on the internal management, operation methods and workflow of family doctor teams. Our research group has developed a plan to improve the management process of family doctor contract services based on the Healthcare Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (HFMEA), and preliminarily demonstrated that its implementation improved the effectiveness of family doctor contract services for management of chronic diseases represented by hypertentsion and diabetes. Our experiences have shown that grassroots medical institutions can apply management tools to optimize team service processes and improve team collaboration efficiency under existing human resource constraints, which may provide reference for peers to improve family doctor contract services.

With the inclusion of health services for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in national basic public health programs, the number of elderly individuals undergoing pulmonary function testing (PFT) in primary healthcare institutions is expected to increase significantly. Adverse reactions during PFT, such as dyspnea and dizziness, increase the risk of falls among the elderly during testing. Based on the Healthcare Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (HFMEA) model, our research team developed an improved protocol for PFT procedures for elderly patients in primary healthcare institutions and conducted a preliminary evaluation of its effectiveness. The results demonstrate that advanced medical risk management tools can optimize PFT procedures in primary healthcare settings, offering valuable insights for enhancing PFT services for the elderly.

Objective:To clarify the definition and attributes of change fatigue among nurses.Methods:A comprehensive literature search was conducted across both Chinese and international databases, including CINAHL, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed, ProQuest, ScienceDirect, Springer Link, Wanfang Data, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, and China Biology Medicine disc, from inception to December 2024. Walker and Avant's classic concept analysis method was adopted.Results:A total of 30 relevant studies were included. The defining attributes of nurse change fatigue include perception of change, negative psychological responses, and passive reactions. Antecedents involve personal and organizational factors, and the consequences affect nurses themselves, patients, and the organization.Conclusions:Concept analysis helps clarify the connotation of nurse change fatigue, enabling managers to identify its features and providing a foundation for future targeted interventions to mitigate fatigue and promote nurses' positive responses to organizational change.

Mild cognitive impairment(MCI)is a clinical condition that lies between normal aging and dementia and can be considered as the initial stage of dementia development.Executive dysfunction is one of the core symptoms of dementia, the maintenance and improvement of executive function play a central role in delaying the onset of dementia.At present, many studies have shown that cognitive training can improve executive function in MCI patients, but there are few researches and no consensus on the underlying mechanisms.This paper provides a review of the effects of cognitive training on executive function in patients with MCI, explores the impact of executive function deficits and cognitive training on the behavioral and neural levels of executive function in patients with MCI, and points out the limitations of current MCI intervention strategies and potential development directions, with the aim of providing new insights into the intervention and treatment of MCI.

Advanced paternal age has been overlooked, and its effect on fertility remains controversial. Previous studies have focused mainly on intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles in men with oligozoospermia. However, few studies have reported on men with semen parameters within reference ranges. Therefore, we conducted a retrospective cohort study analyzing the reproductive outcomes of couples with non-male-factor infertility undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles. In total, 381 cycles included were subgrouped according to paternal age (<35-year-old, 35-39-year-old, or ≥40-year-old), and maternal age was limited to under 35 years. Data on embryo quality and clinical outcomes were analyzed. The results showed that fertilization and high-quality embryo rates were not significantly different (all P > 0.05). The pregnancy rate was not significantly different in the 35-39-year-old group (42.0%; P > 0.05), but was significantly lower in the ≥40-year-old group (26.1%; P < 0.05) than that in the <35-year-old group (40.3%). Similarly, the implantation rate significantly decreased in the ≥40-year-old group (18.8%) compared with that in the <35-year-old group (31.1%) and 35-39-year-old group (30.0%) (both P < 0.05). The live birth rate (30.6%, 21.7%, and 19.6%) was not significantly different across the paternal age subgroups (<35-year-old, 35-39-year-old, and ≥40-year-old, respectively; all P > 0.05), but showed a declining trend. The miscarriage rate significantly increased in the 35-39-year-old group (44.8%) compared with that in the <35-year-old group (21.0%; P < 0.05). No abnormality in newborn birth weight was found. The results indicated that paternal age over 40 years is a key risk factor that influences the assisted reproductive technology success rate even with good semen parameters, although it has no impact on embryo development.

Gram-negative bacteria have become the main pathogens and cause serious clinical problems with increased morbidity and mortality. However, the slow discovery of new antimicrobial agents is unable to meet the need for the treatment of bacterial infections caused by drug-resistant strains. The interaction of L12 and L10 is essential for ribosomal function and protein synthesis. In this study, a yeast two-hybrid system was established to successfully detect the interaction between L12 and L10 proteins from gram-negative bacteria , which allows us to screen compounds that specifically disrupt this interaction. With this system, we identified two compounds IMB-84 and IMB-87 that block L12-L10 interaction and show bactericidal activity against . We used glutathione--transferase (GST) pull-down and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) assays to demonstrate that these compounds disrupt L12-L10 interaction and the target of compounds was further confirmed by the overexpression of target proteins. Moreover, protein synthesis and elongation factor G-dependent GTPase activities are inhibited by two compounds. Therefore, we have identified two antibacterial agents that disrupt L12-L10 interaction by using yeast two-hybrid system.
