Objective To explore the effectiveness of the generative large language model MedGo in nursing decision-making for elderly patients with multimorbidity. Methods A quasi-randomized controlled trial study was conducted involving 6 junior nurses, 6 senior nurses and the MedGo model from January 1, 2025 to March 31, 2025 at the Emergency Internal Medicine Ward of Shanghai East Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University. Clinical data of 120 elderly patients with multimorbidity were analyzed to compare the performance of the three groups in four tasks (nursing diagnosis assessment, nursing intervention formulation, complication identification, and complication prevention) from three evaluation dimensions: decision-making time consumption, decision accuracy, and decision-making quality. Results In terms of decision-making time, the senior nurse group completed all four tasks faster than the junior nurse group (P＜0.01), and the MedGo group completed all four tasks faster than the junior nurse group (P＜0.001) and the senior nurse group (P＜0.001). In terms of decision-making accuracy, senior nurse group scored higher than junior nurse group in all four tasks (P＜0.001), while the MedGo group outperformed the senior nurse group only in complication identification (P＜0.001). In terms of decision-making quality, the MedGo group scored higher than junior nurse group (P＜0.001) and senior nurse group (P＜0.001) in all four tasks. Conclusions The MedGo model demonstrates advantages of high efficiency, accuracy, and quality in nursing decision-making for elderly patients with multimorbidity; senior nurses outperform junior nurses in decision-making, providing diverse references for clinical nursing decision-making.

Purpose To explore the diagnostic value of two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography(2D-STE)in differentiating left ventricular hypertrophy(LVH)caused by Fabry disease from other etiologies.Materials and Methods A total of 23 patients clinically confirmed Fabry disease with LVH(Fabry disease group)in Peking University First Hospital from August 2014 to February 2023,retrospectively.23 patients with hypertensive LVH(hypertensive LVH group)and 23 with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy(HCM)(HCM group)were also included.Conventional echocardiographic parameters and 2D-STE-derived left atrial strain and left ventricular longitudinal strain were analyzed and compared among the three groups.LASSO regression was used to select variables and construct a diagnostic model to differentiate hypertensive LVH,HCM and Fabry disease group.Results The Fabry disease group showed significantly reduced left ventricular global longitudinal strain and segmental left ventricular longitudinal strain in the basal anterior wall,basal anterolateral wall and mid inferior wall compared to the hypertensive LVH group(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in left atrial strain,left ventricular global longitudinal strain and segmental left ventricular longitudinal strain between the Fabry disease and HCM groups(P>0.05).Compared to the conventional echocardiography-based model,the combined model did not significantly improve diagnostic accuracy for differentiating the three etiologies(Z=-1.314--0.594,all P>0.05).Conclusion Compared to patients with hypertensive LVH,HCM and Fabry disease group exhibit varying degrees of decrease in global and segmental longitudinal strain of the left atrium and left ventricle.Additional measurements of left ventricular longitudinal strain and left atrial strain do not provide significant incremental diagnostic value over conventional echocardiography in distinguishing among Fabry disease,hypertensive LVH and HCM.

Objective:To develop an evidence-based nursing practice program based on the Stetler model to extend the lifespan of arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients and evaluate its effectiveness.Methods:An evidence-based nursing practice program was constructed based on the best evidence for extending AVF lifespan in MHD patients. Expert group discussions were held to determine review indicators. A baseline survey was conducted among 100 MHD patients and 42 nurses using covenience sompling at the Blood Purification Center of Wuxi People's Hospital from January to December 2023, to identify barriers and facilitators. In the following year, from January to December 2024, the evidence-based practice was implemented at the same hospital, and the AVF surgical intervention rate and AVF self-management levels of MHD patients were compared before and after the practice.Results:No statistically significant difference was found in the AVF surgery rates before and after the evidence-based practice ( P>0.05) . However, after implementing the evidence-based practice, MHD patients' scores on the AVF self-management scale significantly improved, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01) . Conclusions:The evidence-based practice based on the Stetler model is beneficial for standardizing the clinical management of AVF, reducing the need for surgical interventions, and improving MHD patients' ability to self-manage their AVF.

Objective To understand the current status of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)systematic reviews/Meta-analysis over the past 10 years.Methods Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews,PubMed,Web of Knowledge,CNKI,SinoMed,WanFang Data,VIP databases,as well as the Cochrane Register and PROSPERO registration platform were searched to collect TCM-related systematic reviews/Meta-analysis published between January 2015 and December 2024.Literature was screened,and standardization of institutions,countries,and journals was performed.Data cleaning was conducted,and trends in publication years,high-frequency diseases,journals,institutions,and highly cited papers were analyzed.Results A total of 11,174 papers were included,involving approximately 56,656 authors from 1,422 institutions across 44 countries,covering 1,300 journals and 1,070 diseases.The top five institutions in terms of publications were Beijing University of Chinese Medicine(954 papers),Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine(928 papers),China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences(537 papers),Tianjin University of Chinese Medicine(460 papers),and Chengdu University of Chinese Medicine(393 papers).Foreign institutions with the highest publication volumes were concentrated in South Korea,Iran,and Australia.The most frequently published Chinese journal was Zhongyi Clinical Research with 332 papers,while the most published English journal was Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine with 311 papers.There were 282 single-author papers involving 271 authors,and the most cited paper was referenced 323 times,The three most frequently studied diseases were diabetes(267 papers,2.39％),angina pectoris(214 papers,1.92％),and osteoarthritis(210 papers,1.88％).Non-pharmacological interventions such as acupuncture(1,265 papers,11.32％),auricular therapy(101 papers,0.90％),and Tai Chi(98 papers,0.88％)were most frequently reported.In pharmacological interventions,studies on Tripterygium wilfordii tablets(76 papers,0.68％)and Danhong injection(54 papers,0.48％)were more common.Conclusion The systematic reviews/Meta-analysis method is widely used in the field of TCM,and the field continues to grow.Active academic teams,institutions,and journals have emerged.Over the past decade,there has been a considerable body of evidence in Chinese systematic reviews on TCM for chronic diseases such as diabetes,angina pectoris,and osteoarthritis.In English-language studies,non-pharmacological therapies like acupuncture have been more widely reported,and some high-impact studies have emerged.However,challenges remain,such as issues with research transparency and methodological standardization.Future efforts should focus on establishing transparent systems and quality control mechanisms to further enhance the reliability,accuracy,and dissemination of TCM evidence-based research.

Objective:In this study, we aimed to investigate the short-term efficacy and safety of perioperative administration of the PD-1 inhibitor tislelizumab combined with the SOX regimen (oxaliplatin plus S-1) in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer, and to identify factors influencing therapeutic outcomes.Methods:In this retrospective cohort study, we analyzed clinical data of 166 patients who had undergone perioperative therapy and D2 radical gastrectomy in the Department of General Surgery, First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital between September 2021 and September 2023. The cohort comprised 140 men and 26 women, of median age 62 years (range: 30-75). The patients were allocated to two groups: 62 receiving tislelizumab plus SOX (combination therapy group), and 104 SOX alone (chemotherapy-only group). Primary outcomes included pathological complete response rate, treatment-related adverse events, and complications of surgery. Secondary outcomes comprised major pathological response rate, tumor regression grade (Grades 1-2 denoting favorable response, Grade 3 moderate, and Grades 4-5 poor response), R0 resection rate, and short-term survival outcomes (1-year disease-free and overall survivals). Risk factors associated with pCR in the combination group were also analyzed.Results:The combination therapy group exhibited significantly higher rates of pCR (25.8% vs. 8.7%, χ 2=8.93, P=0.003) and Grade 1 tumor regression (25.8% vs. 16.3%, χ 2=15.32, P=0.001) than the chemotherapy-only group. There were no statistically significant differences in major pathological response rates (41.9% vs. 39.4%), R0 resection rates (96.8% vs. 97.1%,), treatment- related adverse events (48.4% vs. 42.3%,), surgical complications (9.7% vs. 12.5%), 1-year disease-free survival (82.3% vs. 78.8%), or 1-year overall survival (93.5% vs. 91.3%), There were no statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). Multivariate logistic analysis identified neural invasion as an independent risk factor for reduced pCR in the combination group (OR=0.10, 95%CI:0.01-0.85, P=0.035). Conclusions:Perioperative tislelizumab combined with SOX chemotherapy improves pathological response rates in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer and has favorable short-term efficacy and safety profiles. Neural invasion may diminish the therapeutic efficacy of immunotherapy.

AIM:To observe the neuroprotective effects of total saponins of Trillium tschonoskii Maxim(TST)on rats with vascular dementia(VD)and explore the drug's impact on astrocytes and the Sonic Hedgehog(Shh)pathway as well as its mechanisms of action.METHODS:A rat model of vascular dementia was established by bilateral common carotid artery occlusion.Subsequently,the rats were randomly divided into four groups:donepezil hydrochloride group,TST group,model group,and sham group,with 18 rats in each group.After 5 weeks of gavage,samples were collected.Cognitive function was evaluated by the water maze test.Histopathological changes in brain tissue were examined with HE and Nissl staining.The ultrastructure of astrocytes was analyzed by transmission electron microscopy.The localization and expression of the neuronal nuclear antigen(NeuN),glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP),Shh,and glioma-associated oncogene homolog 1(Gli1)were identified using immunohistochemistry.Immunofluorescence was also employed to exam-ine the expression of NeuN and GFAP.Finally,Western blot analysis was used to measure the protein levels of NeuN,GFAP,Shh,Patched 1(Ptch1),Gli1,Bax,Bcl-2,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),and interleukin-10(IL-10)in the hippocampus.RESULTS:Compared to the sham group,the model rats demonstrated prolonged escape latency,disorga-nized and loosened neuronal arrangement in the hippocampus and cortex,reduced Nissl bodies,and significant neuronal damage.Astrocytes displayed chromatin aggregation,swollen mitochondria with disrupted cristae structures,and swollen endoplasmic reticulum regions.The expression of NeuN,Shh,and Gli1 positive cells significantly decreased,while GFAP positive cells significantly increased.Additionally,the protein levels of NeuN,Shh,Ptch1,Gli1,IL-10,and Bcl-2 in the hippocampus were reduced(P＜0.05),whereas those of GFAP,Bax,and TNF-α were elevated(P＜0.01).Com-pared to the model group,the donepezil hydrochloride and TST groups effectively improved the aforementioned indicators.CONCLUSION:Total saponins of trillium tschonoskii maxim can effectively alleviate pathological damage to neurons in VD rats,thereby improving learning and memory abilities.The underlying mechanisms may involve inhibiting the overacti-vation of astrocytes,activate the Shh/Ptch1/Gli1 signaling pathway,suppress neuroinflammation,and reduce neuronal apoptosis.

Objective To explore the factors influencing the efficacy of postoperative first 131Ⅰ therapy in patients with papillary thy-roid carcinoma(PTC)with cervical lymph node metastases detected by iodine and low stimulated thyroglobulin(sTg)level(sTg<10 μg/L).Methods Retrospective analysis of 98 postoperative PTC patients with low sTg level and no distant metastases at the time of their first 131Ⅰ treatment at Hangzhou Cancer Hospital between July 2014 and April 2021 was conducted.According to the post-treatment whole body scan(Rx-WBS)results,the patients were divided into two groups:a group with cervical lymph node metastasis detected by iodine(LN+,n=53)and a group without cervical lymph node metastasis detected by iodine(LN-,n=45).Efficacy evaluation was performed 6 months after 131Ⅰ treatment by determining whether excellent response(ER)was achieved based on sTg levels and the results of diagnostic whole body scan(Dx-WBS)and other imaging tests.The LN+and LN-groups were compared in terms of age,sex,sTg level,anti-thyroglobulin antibody(TgAb)level,ER rate,T stage,N stage,the number of lymph node metastases in pathology,and the dose of 131Ⅰ treatment.Uni-variate and multivariate logistic analyses were performed to find the factors affecting the efficacy of the treatment.The predictive value and optimal diagnostic thresholds of these factors were assessed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves.Results Between the LN+and LN-groups,there were significant differences in ER rate 6 months after the first 131Ⅰ treatment,sTg level,and the number of lymph node metastases in pathology(all P<0.05),and no significant differences in age,sex,T stage,N stage,TgAb level,and 131Ⅰ treatment dose(all P>0.05).Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that patients'sTg level and the number of lymph node metastases in pathology were associated with the efficacy of 131Ⅰ treatment(both P<0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that sTg level was a determinant factor influencing the efficacy of 131Ⅰ treatment(P<0.05).The area under the ROC curve for pretreatment sTg level predicting ER was 0.799(95%CI:0.708-0.889).The sensitivity and specificity of predicting ER at the cutoff value of sTg level which was 2.655 μg/L were 69.2%and 77.8%,re-spectively.Conclusions In postoperative PTC patients with low sTg level accompanied by cervical lymph node metastases detected by iodine,the short-term efficacy of 131Ⅰ therapy is overall inferior to that in those without cervical lymph node metastases detected by iodine.sTg level is an independent risk factor affecting the prognosis of 131Ⅰ therapy in this group of patients,and those with low sTg level have a higher likelihood of achieving a satisfactory outcome after 131Ⅰ therapy.

Objective: To investigate the association between screen time (ST) during leisure time and anxiety-depression symptoms among middle school students, so as to provide a basis for formulating relevant intervention measures. Methods: From November to December 2023, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 2 542 students from junior and senior high school in Taiyuan City. A self designed questionnaire, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7), and the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) were used to investigate ST and anxiety/depression symptoms among middle school students. The Logistic regression model was used to explore the association of ST with symptoms of anxiety and depression, as well as with anxiety and depression comorbiditles (CAD). Results: The detection rates of anxiety symptoms, depression symptoms, and CAD were 13.69%, 15.77%, and 10.11%, respectively. The median ST was 2.00 h/d [interquartile range ( IQR =2.38) for weekly averages], with 0.33 h/d ( IQR =1.67) on work days and 5.00 h/d ( IQR=5.50) on rest days. Logistic regression analysis indicated that the total ST of mobile phones during rest days ( OR =1.07, 1.10, 1.11) and the averages ST of mobile phones over a week ( OR = 1.20 , 1.22, 1.29), as well as the total ST of all screen types during rest days ( OR =1.04, 1.04, 1.05) and the averages ST of all screen types over a week ( OR =1.08, 1.09, 1.21) were positively correlated with anxiety symptoms, depression symptoms, and CAD (all P <0.01). Conclusions Among middle school students in Taiyuan City, screen time is positively correlated with symptoms of anxiety or depression and the comorbidity of anxiety and depression, especially smartphone screen time and weekend screen use. Therefore, measures should be implemented to reduce unnecessary screen time among middle school students, especially the use of mobile phones, in order to mitigate the occurrence of anxiety and depression.
