ObjectiveTo investigate the current status of emergency management for severe mental disorders in Shanghai, and to provide countermeasures and suggestions for the establishment of a sound emergency management system for severe mental disorders and the enhancement of emergency management capability. MethodsA questionnaire survey and qualitative interviews were used to conduct an investigation into the emergency management in 17 district-level mental illness prevention and control institutions in Shanghai, which includes the basic situation of emergency management for severe mental disorders, the construction of emergency response teams and personnel, emergency preparedness drills and training, emergency management plans and rules and regulations, and problems encountered in emergency management. ResultsIn terms of emergency management mechanism and basic situation, resources such as personnel allocation, security funds and green channel were well equipped in each district-level mental illness prevention and control institution in Shanghai. However, the equipment of some hardware facilities was still insufficient to some extent. Therefore, further improvement on the emergency management mechanism for severe mental disorders was needed. With regard to the construction of emergency team and personnel allocation, the majority were those aged between 35‒<45 years old, with a bachelor’s degree, and more than 10 years of working experience. For example, 90.27% staff in district-level mental illness prevention and control institution had a bachelor’s degree or above, which was higher than that among the staff in community-level (73.60%); staff majored in clinical medicine in district-level institution accounted for the proportion at 52.71%, higher than that among the staff in community-level (28.86%); 57.24% staff in district-level institution had an intermediate professional title, higher than that among the staff in community-level (42.28%); and 69.90% staff in district-level institution had more than 10 years of working experience, higher than that among the staff in community-level (43.62%). In the aspect of emergency drills and training, all district-level mental illness prevention and control institutions in Shanghai had a high demand for emergency training, and the weak aspects mainly focused on lack of emergency service protocols, skills of addressing technical challenges, and construction of effectiveness evaluation system. Moreover, the teaching methods were primarily centered on case analysis, simulation drills, interactive discussions, and so forth. Concerning emergency management plans and rules and regulations, all districts in Shanghai had relatively established well-developed systems for emergency response plans, emergency response leadership groups, and emergency response operational task forces for severe mental disorders. About half of the institutions had established other rules and regulations related to emergency management of severe mental disorders in addition to emergency plans. ConclusionShanghai has initially established an emergency management system for severe mental disorders, but it is still fragile in specialized training for emergency management of severe mental disorders, construction of emergency management mechanisms, and the building-up of grassroots emergency teams. Further priorities should include strengthening emergency management training, enhancing the construction of emergency management personnel teams, and gradually establishing a more comprehensive and integrated emergency management mechanism for severe mental disorders.

ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and their influencing factors in community-based schizophrenia patients in Shanghai, and to provide a scientific basis for the early identification and prevention of cardiovascular disease in this population. MethodsBased on the Shanghai community cohort with severe mental disorders in 2022, a total of 3 954 community-based schizophrenia patients were identified and included in this study through a stratified cluster sampling method. Basic information and relevant clinical data (including metabolic index data) were collected through questionnaire survey, physical examination and laboratory testing. Univariate analyses were performed using the chi-square tests, and multivariate logistic regression analyses were employed to identify influencing factors of comorbid cardiovascular diseases. ResultsA total of 3 954 community-based schizophrenia patients were included, of which a total of 1 237 (31.28%) patients had comorbid cardiovascular diseases. Multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that age 60 years old or above (OR=5.524, 95%CI: 3.716‒8.214), smoking behavior (OR=1.328, 95%CI: 1.042‒1.692), overweight (OR=1.900, 95%CI: 1.046‒3.451) or obesity (OR=2.678, 95%CI: 1.439‒4.985), elevated blood pressure (OR=1.546, 95%CI: 1.294‒1.846), abnormal fasting blood glucose (OR=1.552, 95%CI: 1.322‒1.823) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol abnormalities (OR=1.283, 95%CI: 1.025‒1.606) were positively associated with the risk of comorbid cardiovascular diseases in patients with schizophrenia, while educational attainment of college/bachelor’s degree or above (OR=0.640, 95%CI: 0.450‒0.910) and being unmarried (OR=0.552, 95%CI: 0.457‒0.667) were negatively associated with the risk of cardiovascular diseases comorbidity. ConclusionAdvanced age, unhealthy behaviors and lifestyles, as well as abnormalities in blood pressure, blood glucose, and blood lipids, could all increase the risk of comorbid cardiovascular diseases in community schizophrenia patients. It is suggested to strengthen the monitoring and management of these risk factors in this population in the future, so as to achieve early detection, early diagnosis and early intervention of cardiovascular diseases.

Objective:To explore the effects of an intervention strategy based on dyadic illness management theory on dyadic coping level, supportive care needs, and patients' disease symptoms with chemotherapy-stage ovarian cancer patients and their spouses, and to provide reference for improving their disease coping ability and quality of life.Methods:This study used the method of randomized controlled trial. Seventy pairs of ovarian cancer patients and their spouses who received regular chemotherapy and their spouses from Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Fudan University from July 2022 to June 2023 were selected using convenience sampling method. They were assigned to the control group (36 pairs) and the observation group (36 pairs) by the random number table method. Participants in the control group received routine nursing care and the observation group received the intervention strategy of dyadic illness management theory. Data were collected and compared the differences in dyadic coping levels, care needs, and disease symptoms between two groups of patients and their spouses before intervention (before chemotherapy) and after intervention (after the end of the chemotherapy cycle). SPSS 20.0 software was used for analysis, and t-tests, χ2 tests, and Wilcoxon rank sum tests were used to compare the two groups. Results:Finally, 36 pairs were included in the control group and 34 pairs in the observation group. The age of the control group patients was (52.03 ± 9.44) years old, while that of the observation group patients was (53.41 ± 10.14) years old. After the intervention, the total score of dyadic coping level in the patients and their spouses of the observation group were (113.50 ± 8.03), (114.62 ± 10.59) points, respectively, which were higher than (106.64 ± 10.06), (108.78 ± 10.89) points of the control group with significant differences ( t=-3.14, -2.27, both P<0.05); the total score of care needs in the patients and their spouses of the observation group were (89.65 ± 8.29), (95.12 ± 7.25) points, respectively, which were lower than (100.25 ± 10.82), (110.11 ± 7.58) points of the control group with significant differences ( t=4.58, 8.45, both P<0.001); the total score of disease symptoms in the patients of the observation group was (20.09 ± 4.70) points, which was lower than (31.53 ± 6.08) points of the control group with significant differences ( t=8.77, P<0.001). Conclusions:The model of dyadic illness management can improve dyadic coping level and supportive care needs of chemotherapy-stage ovarian cancer patients and their spouses, and alleviate patients′ disease symptoms.

Objective:To explore the different reaction patterns among family caregivers of patients with advanced gynecological malignancies, and to analyze the influencing factors of different profiles.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted with 210 family caregivers of patients with advanced gynecological malignancies from Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital in Shanghai from January 2022 to December 2022. Data were collected by Caregiver Reaction Assessment, Mishel's Uncertainty in Illness Scale-Family Member Form and Perceived Social Support Scale. Latent profile analysis was used to explore the different reaction patterns among family caregivers of patients with advanced gynecological malignancies. The influencing factors of caregiver reaction were identified by multivariate Logistic regression.Results:Totally 208 questionnaires were effectively collected. The family caregivers among patients with advanced gynecological malignancies included 163 males and 45 females, aged (53.89 ± 12.61) years old. The reaction characteristics of 208 family caregivers among patients with advanced gynecological malignancies were divided into three categories: low burden and high benefit group (24.5%, 51/208), moderate burden and benefit group (30.8%, 64/208), and high burden and low benefit group (44.7%, 93/208). Compared to the low burden and high benefit group, caregivers with lower levels of social support were more likely to be classified as moderate burden and benefit group, high burden and low benefit group ( OR = 0.563, 0.407, both P<0.01). Caregivers with moderate burden and benefit group, high burden and low benefit group had higher levels of disease uncertainty ( OR = 1.328, 2.064, both P<0.01). The caregiver′s age, monthly family income, education level, and co-caregivers were also influencing factors regarding to care reaction among family caregivers of patients with advanced gynecological malignancies ( OR values were 0.207-6.422, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The care reaction of family caregivers among patients with advanced gynecological malignancies has obvious categorical features. Healthcare professionals should implement targeted nursing interventions according to their reaction characteristics, so as to reduce the care burden of family caregivers and improve the quality of care for patients with advanced gynecological malignancies.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Jiaohong pills （JHP） and its prescription， Pericarpium Zanthoxyli （PZ） and Rehmanniae Radix （RR） cognitive dysfunction in scopolamine-induced Alzheimer's disease （AD） mice and its mechanism through pharmacodynamic and metabolomics study. MethodThe animal model of AD induced by scopolamine was established and treated with PZ， RG and JHP， respectively. The effects of JHP and its formulations were investigated by open field test， water maze test， object recognition test， avoidance test， cholinergic system and oxidative stress related biochemical test. Untargeted metabolomics analysis of cerebral cortex was performed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-Quadrupole/Orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry （UPLC Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS）. ResultThe behavioral data showed that， compared with the model group， the discrimination indexes of the high dose of JHP， PZ and RR groups was significantly increased （P<0.05）. The staging rate of Morris water maze test in the PZ， RR， high and low dose groups of JHP was significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， the crossing numbers in the PZ， JHP high and low dose groups were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）； the number of errors in the avoidance test were significantly reduced in the PZ and high-dose JHP groups （P<0.01）， and the error latencies were significantly increased in the JHP and its prescription drug groups （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the activities of acetylcholinesterase in the cerebral cortex of the two doses of JHP group and the PZ group were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the activity of acetylcholinesterase in the high-dose JHP group was significantly decreased （P<0.05）， and the level of acetylcholine was significantly increased （P<0.01）. At the same time， the contents of malondialdehyde in the serum of the two dose groups of JHP decreased significantly （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The results of metabolomics study of cerebral cortex showed that 149 differential metabolites were identified between the JHP group and the model group， which were involved in neurotransmitter metabolism， energy metabolism， oxidative stress and amino acid metabolism. ConclusionJHP and its prescription can antagonize scopolamine-induced cognitive dysfunction， regulate cholinergic system， and reduce oxidative stress damage. The mechanism of its therapeutic effect on AD is related to the regulation of neurotransmitter， energy， amino acid metabolism， and improvement of oxidative stress.

ObjectiveTo investigate the status of liver function abnormalities in patients with severe mental disorder (SMD) in Shanghai community, to explore the related factors to abnormal liver function in patients with SMD, and to analyze the effects of the types of mental disorders and medication status on liver function abnormalities. MethodsThe patients with SMD in Jinshan District, Minhang District, Hongkou District and Xuhui District of Shanghai were selected as the research subjects. Questionnaire survey, physical examination and laboratory tests were conducted to obtain their demographic characteristics and liver function indicators such as alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and total bilirubin (TBil). The types of mental disorders and medication status of patients in Jinshan District were also investigated. Abnormalities in liver function were determined by abnormalities in either ALT or TBil. Binary logistic regression analysis was used for multivariate analysis of the status of abnormal liver function, and the effects of mental disorder types and medication status on liver function were analyzed, simultaneously. ResultsA total of 7 251 patients with SMD were finally included into this study, and the rate of liver function abnormality was 22.7%, of which 694 cases (9.6%) had ALT abnormality and 1 084 cases (14.9%) had TBil abnormality. Univariate analysis showed that the rate of liver function abnormalities was higher in males than that in females (χ²=45.026, P<0.001), higher in suburbs than that in urban areas (χ²=25.317, P<0.001), higher in those with higher BMI than in those with lower BMI (χ²=63.748, P<0.001), higher in those with elevated blood pressure (BP) than in those without elevated BP (χ²=24.774, P<0.001), higher in those with elevated blood glucose than in those without elevated blood glucose (χ²=43.345, P<0.001), higher in those with abnormal triglyceride (TG) than in those with normal TG (χ²=15.551,P<0.001), and higher in those with abnormal total cholesterol (TC) than in those with normal TC (χ²=10.962, P=0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that the rate of abnormal liver function was higher in males than that in females (OR=1.53, 95%CI: 1.36‒1.73), higher in suburbs than that in urban areas (OR=1.43, 95%CI: 1.21‒1.70), higher in those with overweight than in those with normal BMI (OR=1.16, 95%CI: 1.01‒1.33), higher in those with obesity than in those with those with normal BMI (OR=1.61, 95%CI: 1.36‒1.91), higher in those with elevated blood glucose than in those without elevated blood glucose (OR=1.39, 95%CI: 1.23‒1.58), and higher in those with abnormal TC than in those with normal TC (OR=1.36, 95%CI: 1.13‒1.65).The difference in the rate of ALT abnormalities among the SMD patients in Jinshan District with different medication status was statistically significant (χ²=21.928, P<0.001). Whereas, the differences in the effects of the types of mental disorders and medication status on the status of liver function abnormalities were not statistically significant(P>0.05). ConclusionThe detection rate of liver function abnormalities in community-based SMD patients in Shanghai is high, and male, suburban, and accompanied by elevated BMI, BP, blood glucose, and TC are risk factors for liver function abnormalities in patients with SMD. Primary healthcare providers should pay more attention to the liver function of patients with SMD and initiate targeted and tailored prevention, detection and treatment measures.

Optimizing the management of medical service appointment is an important measure to enhance the patient′s medical experience and promote the high-quality development of hospitals. In 2022, a tertiary comprehensive hospital in Jiangsu Province focused on the demand for digital appointments, and carried out coordinated management of intelligent appointment for medical examination both inside and outside the hospital, online and offline. By constructing an intelligent examination appointment system, enriching appointment categories, exchanging appointment information, improving supporting services, and establishing appointment supervision mechanisms, this practice provided intelligent, personalized, and precise examination appointment services for patients in multi-campus hospitals and member units of medical group. The average waiting time of patients for CT, MRI, and ultrasound examinations in this hospital decreased from 7.43 h, 8.75 h, and 4.63 h in 2021 to 4.63 h, 4.72 h, and 2.18 h in 2023, respectively, as well as the average satisfaction rate of patients with examination appointments increased from 90.7% to 96.5%. The intelligent examination appointment management had achieved good results, which could provide references for other hospitals to optimize appointment of medical services.

Objective:To evaluate the dosimetric characteristics, safety and effectiveness of magnetic resonance-guided fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT) for brain tumors.Methods:Clinical data of 8 brain tumor patients treated with magnetic resonance-guided FSRT in the Radiotherapy Department of the First Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital from July 2023 to February 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Online adaptive radiotherapy was adopted for all patients. Adapt-to-position (ATP) or adapt-to-shape (ATS) radiotherapy was chosen by radiologists. Each adaptation was initiated after the radiotherapy plan was re-examined. The radiotherapy fractionation plan was 21-30 Gy/3-5 F. Clinical characteristics, radiotherapy plans and plan parameters were analyzed by statistical description. Median ( Q1， Q3) was used to describe continuous data and percentage was used to describe categorical data. Results:In this study, 9 lesions were treated a total of 41 times, including 20 times (49%) of ATP plan and 21 times (51%) of ATS plan. The median target area coverage rate was 95.1% (95%, 99.8%), the median target area maximum dose rate was 1.15 (1.07, 1.31), the median conformity index (CI) was 0.75 (0.69, 0.86), the median homogeneity index (HI) was 1.09 (1.06, 1.21), and the median gradient index (GI) was 4.73 (3.36, 8.45), respectively. After ATS plan, the median reduction in gross target volume (GTV) was 8.22 cm3 (1.2, 10.1 cm3), and the median reduction in brain tissue V12 Gy was 30.46 cm3 (8.34, 31.13 cm3).The median follow-up was 3.2 months (1.4, 6.1 months). No radiation necrosis was found in any patient. There were 2 cases of acute brain edema during radiotherapy (both were mild). Except for 1 case who died due to systemic disease progression, the remaining patients had no local recurrence, and achieved good quality of life. Conclusions:The parameters of the treatment plan of magnetic resonance-guided FSRT are generally acceptable. The adaptive plan can effectively reduce the dose of normal brain tissues. It is safe and feasible to use the magnetic resonance-guided FSRT for brain tumors.
