The new cultural construction of high-quality development of public hospitals proposes a patient-oriented ap-proach.People with disabilities,represented by the hearing-impaired community,faces many difficulties in the process of seeking medical care,and their needs have not been adequately addressed.This inadequacy adversely affects the development of harmoni-ous doctor-patient relationships and the patient medical experience.This study takes the deaf assistance outpatient clinic,first es-tablished by Shanghai East Hospital as an example to elaborate the practice of cultural brand construction under the leadership of Party building.Medical social workers,healthcare professionals,and volunteers work together to build a cultural brand through institutional guarantees,detailed care,and the establishment of a full process service system.This is expected to provide refer-ences for the construction of hospital cultural brands..

Objective:To explore the psychological vulnerability characteristics of patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) based on symptom network analysis, and to provide evidence for maintining their psychological health.Methods:Using a cross-sectional survey method, from October 2023 to March 2024, a convenience sampling approach was employed to conduct a questionnaire survey among patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the general ward of the Cardiology Department at Peking University Third Hospital. The survey involved a general information questionnaire and Mental Vulnerability Questionnaire. The R language was used to construct a symptom network to describe the relationship between each symptom of patients′psychological vulnerability, and its centrality index was calculated.Results:A total of 260 post-PCI patients were enrolled, including191 males and 69 females, with a mean age of (62.38 ± 12.91) years and a total psychological vulnerability score of (47.25 ± 13.18). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the level of mental vulnerability was higher in patients with female gender ( β = 0.207, P = 0.001) and higher number of comorbidities/past history ( β = 0.126, P = 0.039). In the symptom network analysis, the symptoms with the highest node strength, tight centrality, and mediator centrality were "You often feeling unwell" ( rs = 1.25, rc = 0.003 45, rb = 2.61), "You always in a bad mood" ( rs = 1.15) and "You often have anxiety attacks" ( rs = 1.13) were second only to "You often feeling unwell" in the center of intensity. Conclusions:The core symptom of psychological vulnerability in post-PCI patients is "You often feeling unwell", and mental symptoms are in a more central position. Nursing staff should take mental symptoms as the target of intervention, and strengthen the holistic care for patients′physical-psychological-mental symptoms, so as to effectively reduce the level of psychological vulnerability of the patients, and to maintain their psychological health.

Based on the service of stranded patients in D Hospital, this study aimed to explore the multiple needs of stranded patients and construct an intervention mode from the ecosystem perspective. Using the method of case study, taking the service of stranded patients in hospital D as an example, 49 case records and verbatim interviews with stakeholders were analyzed. The discharge and resettlement of stranded patients faces multiple obstacles from individuals, families, medical and social systems. This study constructed the social work intervention model from the ecosystem perspective: information collection and needs assessment, empowerment of individual system, reconstruction of family support system, coordination of medical system and linking social support system. The intervention process achieved efficient effects. Social work intervention of stranded patients should pay attention to patients’ psychosocial needs and improve awareness of system difficulties; mobilize the multi-system support network and deliver services in combination with case management method; conduct social advocacy for the breakthrough of law and policy.

The retention of emergency patients is a common problem faced by hospitals worldwide. In addition to medical problems, social, family, economic and other problems will also cause patients to stay in the emergency department. It not only brings challenges to patients’ own disease treatment and hospital operation and management, but also brings ethical dilemmas. Taking the service cases of medical social workers who involved in stranded patients in Shanghai E Hospital as an example, this paper analyzed 20 service records and interviews with social workers receiving cases, and combed the ethical dilemmas faced by medical social workers in the process of involving in emergency stranded patients. It was found that medical social workers faced many ethical dilemmas in the process of involving in emergency stranded patients, such as interpersonal relations and relevant legal regulations, the right to life and health and the right to informed consent, the self-determination of case owners and the allocation of medical resources. In this regard, it is suggested to solve the problem of patient retention by advocating the improvement of relevant systems and policies, building cooperative teams to smooth referral channels, strengthening education, and promoting family shared decision-making.

Radiotherapy uses high-energy X-rays or other particles to destroy cancer cells and medical practitioners have used this approach extensively for cancer treatment (Hachadorian et al., 2020). However, it is accompanied by risks because it seriously harms normal cells while killing cancer cells. The side effects can lower cancer patients' quality of life and are very unpredictable due to individual differences (Bentzen, 2006). Therefore, it is essential to assess a patient's body damage after radiotherapy to formulate an individualized recovery treatment plan. Exhaled volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can be changed by radiotherapy and thus used for medical diagnosis (Vaks et al., 2012). During treatment, high-energy X-rays can induce apoptosis; meanwhile, cell membranes are damaged due to lipid peroxidation, converting unsaturated fatty acids into volatile metabolites (Losada-Barreiro and Bravo-Díaz, 2017). At the same time, radiotherapy oxidizes water, resulting in reactive oxygen species (ROS) that can increase the epithelial permeability of pulmonary alveoli, enabling the respiratory system to exhale volatile metabolites (Davidovich et al., 2013; Popa et al., 2020). These exhaled VOCs can be used to monitor body damage caused by radiotherapy.

Objective: To investigate whether silencing UCP2 can sensitize cervical cancer cell line Siha to radiation. Methods: Siha cells were transfected with UCP2 siRNA and then irradiated by X-ray. The radiosensitivity of Siha cells was verified by colony formation, CCK-8, apoptosis and immunofluorescence assays. The mitochondrial membrane potential and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were detected to further explore the related mechanism. Results: RT-PCR and Western blot assays showed that the expression of UCP2 in Siha cells was increased after irradiation and the UCP2 siRNA successfully silenced the expression of UCP in cells. According to the survival curves, the D₀, D_q, N and SF₂ were 1.54, 1.31, 2.31 Gy and 0.52 for siUCP2 group, 2.50, 3.64, 4.30 Gy and 0.83 for blank control group, and 3.34, 2.16, 1.91 Gy and 0.69, for siNC group, respectively. The radiosensitivity enhancement ratio of silent group was 0.62 and 0.46, compared with blank control group and negative control group, respectively. The proliferative activity of cells in the silent group was lower than that in the control group (t=13.2, P<0.05). Apoptosis levels in the silent group were significantly higher than those in the control group after irradiation(t=3.14, P<0.05). At 4 h after irradiation, the ROS production in the silent group was significantly higher than that in the control group (t=19.10, P<0.05). At 24 h after irradiation, the mitochondrial membrane potential of Siha cells in the silent group was significantly lower than that in the control group (t=4.18, P<0.05). Conclusions The radiosensitivity of Siha cells is enhanced after UCP2 silencing, and thus UCP2 may applicable as a new target for radiosensitization of cervical cancer cells.
