Objective To compare the effects of desflurane inhalation anesthesia versus propofol total intravenous anesthesia on postoperative recovery quality in patients undergoing endoscopic transnasal pituitary adenoma resection,and to provide evidence-based recommendations for optimizing anesthetic management in this surgical population.Methods This single-center,prospective,randomized controlled trial enrolled 112 patients scheduled for endoscopic transnasal pituitary adenoma resection,who were randomly assigned to either the desflurane group(n=56)or the propofol group(n=56).The desflurane group received desflurane[0.7-1.0 minimum alveolar concentration(MAC)]combined with remifentanil for anesthesia maintenance,whereas the propofol group received propofol(4-6 mg·kg-1·h-1)with remifentanil.The primary outcome was defined as the time from discontinuation of anesthetics to achieving an Aldrete score of 9.Secondary outcomes included emergence time,extubation time,and incidences of postoperative agitation and vomiting.Results Patients receiving desflurane achieved an Aldrete score of 9 significantly faster than those in the propofol group(13.0 min vs 16.5 min,P=0.003).Similarly,both emergence time(14.0 min vs 16.5 min,P=0.009)and extubation time(13.0 min vs 16.5 min,P=0.003)were significantly shorter in the desflurane group.However,the desflurane group had higher incidences of postoperative agitation(17.9%vs 3.6%,P=0.015)and vomiting(19.6%vs 5.4%,P=0.022).No significant difference was observed in severe agitation rates or 24 h postoperative recovery quality[Quality of Recovery-15(QoR-15)scores]between groups.Conclusion Desflurane anesthesia significantly accelerates postoperative recovery in patients undergoing endoscopic transnasal pituitary adenoma resection,however,it may increase risks of mild agitation and vomiting.In clinical applications,it is necessary to balance recovery benefits against potential adverse effects,and take targeted prophylactic measures.

Objective:To investigate the effect of intradialytic cerebral blood flow (CBF) fluctuation on cognitive decline in middle-aged and elderly maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods:It was a prospective cohort study. MHD patients aged ≥50 years from Beijing Shijitan Hospital were enrolled from January 2023 to June 2023. Middle cerebral artery mean flow velocity (MFV) was serially monitored via transcranial Doppler (TCD) during dialysis sessions. Cognitive function was assessed at baseline and after 12-month follow-up using standardized neuropsychological tests: montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), auditory verbal learning test (AVLT 5), complex figure test (CFT), trail making test-B (TMT-B), Stroop color and word test (SCWT), and symbol digit modalities test (SDMT). ΔMFV was calculated as pre-to-post dialysis MFV difference. Multivariable linear regression was used to analyze the association of ΔMFV and cognition.Results:A total of 121 MHD patients were recruited with an age of (63.63±8.44) years. There were 97 males (80.2%), and the dialysis vintage was (55.08±54.73) months. Significant intradialytic MFV reductions were observed ( P<0.05). At 12 months, cognitive decline manifested in global cognition (MoCA), memory (CFT-memory), executive function (TMT-B, SCWT-C, SCWT-T), attention (SDMT), visuospatial ability (CFT-copy)(all P<0.05). Multivariable linear regression analysis revealed ΔMFV independently predicted declines in: MoCA ( B=0.066, 95% CI 0.018-0.113, P=0.007), AVLT5 ( B=0.050, 95% CI 0.004-0.097, P=0.035), TMT-B ( B=-1.955, 95% CI -3.453--0.457, P=0.011), SCWT-C ( B=0.298, 95% CI 0.112-0.484, P=0.002), SCWT-T ( B=-1.371, 95% CI -2.303--0.439, P=0.004). Conclusions:Hemodialysis induces acute CBF reductions detectable by TCD. Cumulative intradialytic CBF fluctuations may accelerate cognitive deterioration in middle-aged and elderly MHD populations, particularly affecting memory and executive domains.

Objective:To explore the chain mediating role of positive coping and organizational climate in the relationship between charismatic leadership and clinical nurses' organizational silence behavior.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional research. A convenience sampling method was used to select 236 clinical nurses from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from April to May 2024. The Conger-Kanungo Charismatic Leadership Scale, Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (positive coping), Organizational Climate Scale, Nurse Organizational Silence Evaluation Questionnaire were administered to the nurses. Harman's single-factor test was used to examine common method bias, while Spearman's correlation analysis was employed to analyze the relationships among charismatic leadership, positive coping, organizational climate, and organizational silence behavior. The chain mediating effect of positive coping and organizational climate between charismatic leadership and organizational silence behavior was tested using Model 6 in SPSS PROCESS macro.Results:A total of 248 questionnaires were retrieved, with 236 valid responses, yielding an effective response rate of 95.16%. The common method bias test revealed that 7 factors with eigenvalues greater than 1 were extracted, with the first factor explaining 26.19% of the variance, which was below the critical value of 40%. Correlation analysis showed that charismatic leadership, positive coping, and organizational climate were positively correlated with each other ( P<0.05), and organizational silence behavior was negatively correlated with charismatic leadership, positive coping, and organizational climate ( P<0.05). The mediating effect analysis showed that charismatic leadership could directly affect nurses' organizational silence behavior ( β=-0.138, P<0.01), and could also affect nurses' organizational silence behavior through three mediating paths: charismatic leadership→positive coping→nurses' organizational silence behavior, with an effect value of -0.205, accounting for 46.91% (-0.205/ -0.437) of the total effect; charismatic leadership→organizational climate→nurses' organizational silence behavior, with an effect value of -0.073, accounting for 16.70% (-0.073/-0.437) of the total effect; charismatic leadership→positive coping→organizational climate→nurses' organizational silence behavior, with an effect value of -0.021, accounting for 4.81% (-0.021/-0.437) of the total effect. The total mediating effect was -0.299, accounting for 68.42% (-0.299/-0.437) of the total effect. Conclusions:Charismatic leadership not only directly influences nurses' organizational silence behavior but also has an indirect impact through the mediating effects of positive coping and organizational climate.

Objective:To investigate the effect of intradialytic cerebral blood flow (CBF) fluctuation on cognitive decline in middle-aged and elderly maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods:It was a prospective cohort study. MHD patients aged ≥50 years from Beijing Shijitan Hospital were enrolled from January 2023 to June 2023. Middle cerebral artery mean flow velocity (MFV) was serially monitored via transcranial Doppler (TCD) during dialysis sessions. Cognitive function was assessed at baseline and after 12-month follow-up using standardized neuropsychological tests: montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), auditory verbal learning test (AVLT 5), complex figure test (CFT), trail making test-B (TMT-B), Stroop color and word test (SCWT), and symbol digit modalities test (SDMT). ΔMFV was calculated as pre-to-post dialysis MFV difference. Multivariable linear regression was used to analyze the association of ΔMFV and cognition.Results:A total of 121 MHD patients were recruited with an age of (63.63±8.44) years.

Objective:To investigate the changes and associated factors of cerebral blood flow in middle-aged and elderly patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD).Methods:This was a prospective observational study. End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients undergoing MHD aged over 50 years at Beijing Shijitan Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2023 to June 2023 were included. General clinical data of the selected individuals were collected, and dialysis related indicators were recorded and calculated. Mean flow velocity (MFV) of the middle cerebral arterial was measured by transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) to represent cerebral blood flow throughout dialysis. Hemodialysis-related variables were collected. The MFV values of bilateral middle cerebral artery were measured through temporal windows at 7 time points: 15 minutes before dialysis (T1), 15 minutes (T2), 30 minutes (T3), 60 minutes (T4), 120 minutes (T5), 180 minutes (T6) during dialysis, and the endpoint of dialysis (T7), and the average values were recorded. The ΔMFV was calculated as pre-minus endpoint values of MFV. The Spearman rank correlation method was used to analyze the correlations between ΔMFV and dialysis-related variables, and multiple linear regression method was used to analyze the related factors of the changes in MFV.Results:This study included a total of 123 patients undergoing MHD, aged (63.63±8.44) years (range 50-85 years), including 99 males (80.5%). TCD examination demonstrated a decline trend in MFV throughout dialysis. The MFV at T7 was significantly lower than that at T1 ( Z=-7.650, P<0.001). The Spearman correlation analysis showed that the decline in MFV was correlated with ultrafiltration volume ( r=0.356), ultrafiltration rate ( r=0.371), the difference in systolic pressure (pre-analysis minus post-dialysis, r=0.251), the difference in mean arterial pressure (pre-dialysis minus post-dialysis, r=0.194), combined diabetes ( r=0.293), dialysis vintage ( r=0.220), Kt/V ( r=0.287), and serum albumin ( r=-0.295). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that combined with diabetes ( B=3.889, 95% CI 1.373-6.405, P=0.003), decreased serum albumin ( B=-0.456, 95% CI -0.877--0.036, P=0.034), increased ultrafiltration rate ( B=11.099, 95% CI 6.402-15.797, P<0.001) and the decline in systolic pressure ( B=0.062, 95% CI 0.008-0.116, P=0.026) were significantly associated with the decline in MFV throughout dialysis. Conclusions:In middle and elderly patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis, there is a decline trend in cerebral blood flow during hemodialysis. The combination of diabetes, lower serum albumin, higher ultrafiltration rate, and intradialytic systolic pressure decline are the risk factors influencing the intradialytic decline of cerebral blood flow.

Objective: To explore the pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) awareness, willingness, uptake patterns, barriers and needs among Chinese student men who have sex with men (MSM), so as to provide relevant evidence for targeted interventions with PrEP. Methods: A proportional sampling method was used to conduct a cross sectional survey of MSM aged 16 years and older residing in 21 provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions in mainland China between October 20 and December 20, 2021, to collect information on demographic and sexual behavioral characteristics, and 923 students of them were selected as the subjects of this study. The chi-square test and Fisher s test were used for univariate analysis, followed by multivariate Logistic regression to analyze the influencing factors of PrEP awareness and uptake. Results: According to the cascade analysis method, the awareness, willingness, uptake and adherence rates of PrEP among the student MSM were obtained as 88.95%, 67.36%, 13.20% and 45.21 %, respectively. HIV testing more than once in the last 3 months, and all of them were aware of the HIV test results of their sexual partners, and those with high frequency of condom use had a higher rate of awareness ( OR =2.32, 1.79, 1.69, P <0.05). Willingness rates were higher for those from the pilot city, using substances, and HIV testing more than once in the last 3 months ( OR =2.13, 1.65, 1.69, P <0.05). Higher rates of uptake were found among those from high risk and pilot areas, presence of commercial sex, substance use, and high literacy ( OR =5.60, 3.54,2.81, 1.92, 4.54, P <0.05). Adherence rates were higher among those who used one pill per day or both ( OR =12.77, 13.26, P <0.05). The barriers and needs faced by student MSM were primarily personal concerns about medication side effects, preventative effects, and confidence in sexual behavioral styles, and the high cost of medication and related service costs. Conclusions The student MSM population in China is characterized by high awareness, low willingness, low uptake, and low adherence to PrEP. Targeted interventions should be considered and tailored by the departments to facilitate PrEP promotion among student MSM.

Objective: To analyze the use of preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among male students who had sex with men (MSM) with different sexual behavior patterns using potential categories, so as to provide evidence for determining the use patterns of PrEP consistent with MSM. Methods: A questionnaire survey was conducted by proportional sampling method on MSM in 31 provincial administrative regions in mainland China from 20 October to 30 December 2021, a total of 1 040 students were selected for the study. Latent variable analyses were conducted on a total of seven sexual behavioral characteristics, including knowledge of sexual partner HIV infection, frequency of condom use, number of sexual partners, engaging in group sex, provision of commercial sex, use of sex aids, and history of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in the past year. And demographic characteristics were analyzed by Logistic regression analysis. The rates of PrEP awareness, willingness to use and usage rate in different sexual behavior risk groups were investigated. Results: Student MSM could be divided into two potential category groups:a lowrisk behavior group (82.4%) and a highrisk behavior group (17.6%). The PrEP usage rate (15.8%) was higher in the highrisk behavior group, and the difference was statistically significant compared to the lowrisk behavior group (7.2%) (χ2=13.43, P<0.05). Student MSM residing in the northeast, south, and northwest of China, in the pilot city, and with a sex role of "0.5" (possible acceptance and insertion of sexual behavior) were more likely to be in the highrisk behavior group (OR=3.13, 3.07, 3.87, 2.22, 1.66, P<0.05). Conclusion Student MSM in highrisk and lowrisk sexual differs in the behavior of PrEP, and targeted interventions should be implemented to promote the use of PrEP and reduce HIV infection in this population.

Objective: To investigate the current situation and related factors of antiretroviral therapy (ART) among HIV infected male students engaging in men who have sex with men (MSM), so as to provide the reference data for HIV prevention and treatment. Methods: In November 2021, 137 MSM students from 31 provincial administrative regions in China were recruited. An online survey was conducted to collect data on demographic characteristics, ART status, CD4 count, and HIV viral load before treatment. Logistic regression was used to analyze the factors related the effectiveness of ART in MSM. Results: Among the included research subjects, 14.6% had late detection of HIV,97.1% of participants were currently undergoing ART. Among those whose ART duration was less than 6 months, while 76.9% were undergoing ART. Logistic regression indicated that HIV infected students who received ART for more than 24 months ( OR =5.28, 95% CI =1.38-20.22) had a higher rate of successful HIV suppression. HIV infected students who reported physical sensory side effects ( OR =0.08, 95% CI =0.01-0.71) and cognitive side effects ( OR =0.28, 95% CI =0.09-0.90) were more likely to experience failure of ARI inhibition ( P <0.05). Conclusions There is still room for improvement in the efficacy of ART among MSM students. Strategies to improve treatment adherence must consider individual variances among HIV infected patients and the side effects of medications when designing treatment plans.
