Objective To develop the assessment scale of proactive health behavior ability for the disabled elderly in nursing homes and to test its reliability and validity.Methods The first draft of the scale was formed by literature review,qualitative interviews and Delphi method.From December 2023 to March 2024,525 disabled elderly people from 9 nursing homes in Sichuan Province and Chongqing City were selected as the survey subjects,and item analysis and reliability and validity test were carried out on the scale.30 disabled elderly people were re-investigated after 2 weeks to calculate the retest reliability of the scale.Results The scale consisted of 4 dimensions and 27 items.Exploratory factor analysis extracted 4 common factors,with the cumulative vanance contribution rate of 65.992％,and confirmatory factor analysis showed that the modified model fitting index was within acceptable range.The content validity index at item level was 0.917-1.000,and that at scale level was 0.997.The Cronbach's α coefficient,test-retest reliability and split-half reliability of the total scale were 0.944,0.997 and 0.882,respectively.Conclusion The scale has good reliability and validity,and it can be used to evaluate the proactive health behavior ability of the disabled elderly in nursing homes.

Objective:To explore the clinical features of Heidenhain variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (HvCJD) to deepen understanding and recognition of this disease.Methods:Clinical data of 1 case of HvCJD admitted to Hainan General Hospital on August 4, 2022, were collected, whose clinical characteristics were reviewed and analyzed, and literature review was conducted.Results:The 59 years old male patient initially experienced symptoms of blurred vision, followed by a rapid decline in cognitive function. Mini-Mental State Examination score was 21/30 and Montreal Cognitive Assessment score was 11/30. Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated the presence of mild ribbon-like hyperintensity within the bilateral frontal-parietal-occipital-insular cortex. T 2WI fluid attenuated inversion recovery imaging exhibited slight hyperintensity within the bilateral parietal cortex. The electroencephalography showed atypical triphasic waves. The examination of cerebrospinal fluid demonstrated 14-3-3 protein with a positive result. Two months after onset of illness, follow-up revealed new symptoms of myoclonus in the patient. Finally, the patient was not effectively treated and died about 2.5 months after onset. Thirty-six relevant literatures of HvCJD were reviewed. Most Heidenhain variant patients exhibited occipital cortical diffusion weighted imaging hyperintensity. Posterior cortical damage may affect primary and higher-level visual processing, leading to various visual disturbances. The early symptoms were mainly visual symptoms, such as visual reduction, blurred vision, visual field defect and color vision impairment. Conclusions:HvCJD patients only present with various visual disorders at the onset, followed by other neurological symptoms. The disease progresses rapidly, and patients often die in a short period of time. The disease is very rare and is often misdiagnosed. Currently, there is no feasible and effective treatment for HvCJD.

Objective To analyze the correlation of the main chemical components,physical parameters and the color of Fructus Sophorae in nine-steam-nine-bask processing.Methods The contents of sophoracin,genistein,rutin and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural were simultaneously determined by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC).The content of polysaccharide was determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry.The correlation of main components,physical parameters and the color was studied by the measurement of the physical parameters and the color(L*、a*、b*)combined with hierarchical cluster analysis(HCA),principal component analysis(PCA)and partial least squares(PLS).The criteria importance through intercriteria correlation(CRITIC)method was used to make a comprehensive evaluation of the nine-steam-nine-bask processing of Fructus Sophorae.Results The methods for the content determination and chromaticity measurement were accurate and reliable.The precision,stability and repeatability tests were good.The results of HCA and PCA showed that Fructus Sophorae,which was steamed-basked for one to four times,could be grouped into one category.Fructus Sophorae steamed-basked for five to nine times were classified into another category.PLS correlation analysis showed that the contents of polysaccharide and rutin were significantly correlated with physical parameters and color.The water absorption expansion and relative density were significantly correlated with the color.The comprehensive evaluation showed that nine-steam-nine-bask Fructus Sophorae was the best.Conclusion There is certain regularity in the overall changes of the content of main components,physical parameters and the color of Fructus Sophorae during nine-steam-nine-bask processing.The combination of the internal components,the color and physical parameters provides the basis for revealing the mechanism on nine-steam-nine-bask processing of Fructus Sophorae.

Objective This study aims to explore the formation of the dilemma of"giving care"for disabled elderly people in nursing homes from the perspective of active health.Methods Purposive sampling was used to select caregivers and disabled elderly people from a nursing home in Chongqing as research subjects from July 2022 to December 2022.One-on-one in-depth interviews were conducted and Colaizzi's 7-step thematic analysis method was employed to collect and analyze the interview data.Results 4 themes were identified:①the dominance of the"giving"care concept,including the cultural thoughts of filial piety,passive acceptance of care characteristics and consumer psychology regarding paid services;②insufficient"participation"care ability,including lack of knowledge regarding active health and a weakening of skills to promote participation;③the hindrance to"transformation"of care models,including objective limitations in terms of human resources and delays in adapting aging environments;and ④the decline in"utilization"of internal abilities,including excessive avoidance of potential risks,a heavy workload of care and poor quality of individual care.Conclusion The formation of the dilemma of"giving care"for disabled elderly people in nursing homes is affected by multiple factors such as social background,service system,supply resources,and management mode.Transforming disabled elderly individuals from a state of"passive giving care"to"active participation in their health"is an important measure to realize the concept of positive aging and healthy aging.

To report the clinical, imaging, and pathological feature of a rare case of central precocious puberty with primary pigmented nodular adrenocortical disease(PPNAD), and to conduct a retrospective analysis of PPNAD with relevant literatures. The pubic hair was found in the child for more than one year. Physical examination showed Cushing′s syndrome. ACTH in blood decreased, cortisol rhythm was disordered, 24-hour urine free cortisol increased and the paradoxical increase of urine free cortisol after high dose dexamethasone suppression test. Adrenal enhancement computed tomography(CT)showed multiple small nodular shadows in bilateral adrenal glands. Gonadotropin releasing hormone(GnRH)stimulation test supported central precocious puberty and GnRH analogue was used to control the sexual development. PPNAD was supported by pathology result. The symptoms of Cushing′s syndrome were relieved partially after left adrenalectomy.

Objective:To analyze the patients′ clinical and genetic characteristics with pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) and investigate the correlation between clinical phenotypes and genotypes.Methods:Twenty PHP patients were ascertained at Children′s Hospital Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2011 to July 2020. Clinical manifestation, laboratory examination and gene test results were retrospectively analyzed.Results:In these twenty patients, eighteen cases showed resistance to parathyroid hormone (PTH) and thirteen cases had Albright′s hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) phenotype. Gene abnormalities were found in all the twenty PHP patients, which included seven patients with GNAS gene variations (six frameshifts and one missense) and thirteen patients with GNAS gene methylation defects. Moreover, twelve children with both PTH resistance and AHO phenotype were clinically diagnosed as PHP-Ⅰa, meanwhile, seven carried GNAS variations and five had methylation abnormalities with a correct diagnosis of PHP-Ⅰb.Conclusions:Patients with AHO phenotype and PTH resistance may have a high genetic diagnosis rate. Because PHP-Ⅰb clinical phenotype may be similar to PHP-Ⅰa, early genetic detection is required for the differential diagnosis. In addition, children without PTH resistance should also be followed up regularly, which may help the early diagnosis.

Growth plate,the developmental center of endochondral osteogenesis,can be divided morphologically and functionally into a resting zone,a proliferative zone,a prehypertrophic zone and a hypertrophic zone.Injuries to growth plate often lead to bone growth defects including limb length discrepancy and angulation deformity in children.Currently,their orthopedic corrective surgeries are invasive and limitedly effective and no effective biotherapy has been available.Previous studies on animal models of growth plate damage have investigated the related cellular and molecular events in the repair of damaged growth plates in the 4 distinct inflammatory,fibrogenic,osteogenic and remodeling phases.Related molecules involved in the regulation of the above processes,such as inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha,mitogenic platelet-derived growth factor and bone morphogenetic protein,are found to participate in the regulation of growth plate injury.Exploration of the mechanisms may provide new targets for biotherapy.In addition,development of cartilage tissue engineering,especially application of mesenchymal stem cells,also provides potential interventions for growth plate injury.

Objective:To investigate the association between the parameters of thin-section computed tomography and the invasion and histological subtypes of subsolid nodules measuring 1-2 centimeters in diameter as lung adenocarcinoma.Methods:We retrospectively reviewed the cases with subsolid nodules measuring 1-2 centimeters on thin-section computed tomography and histologically confirmed as lung adenocarcinoma.Results:A total of 135 patients were enrolled in this study, including 23 with pure ground glass nodules and 112 with part-solid ground glass nodule. We observed significant differences of nodule size, solid component size, consolidation-to-tumor ratio, nodule attenuation and attenuation ratio( P<0.0001). The receiver operating curve indicated certain predictive value of solid component size, nodule attenuation and attenuation ratio: AUC were 0.838(0.756-0.919)、0.823(0.729-0.917) and 0.820(0.726-0.914), respectively. Of the invasive adenocarcinoma, those with solid or micropapillary components merely showed a significance in solid component size( P=0.024). Conclusion:The parameters of thin-section computed tomography of 1-2 centimeters subsolid nodules showed significant differences in varied invasiveness of lung adenocarcinoma, and these could have certain predictive value.
