Objective To utilize single-cell and peripheral blood transcriptomic data from 3D brain organoids,combined with machine learning,to analyze the role of mitochondrial autophagy genes in schizophrenia(SCZ).Methods By integrating two machine learning algorithms,we identified differentially expressed mitochondrial autophagy-related genes between schizophrenia patients and healthy controls using peripheral blood RNA sequencing data.The relationship between mitophagy gene,immune cells and inflammatory factors was further explored.Comprehensive single-cell analysis was used to explore the signaling pathways and specific transcription factors based on mitophagy genes.Results Using machine learning,seven key mitophagy genes expressed in schizophrenia patients were identified.Based on Mitoscore analysis,at the single-cell level,neurons with high mitochondrial autophagy activity(Mitohigh_Neuron)formed new interactions with endothelial cells via the SPP1 signaling pathway.Conclusion This study identified two subtypes of mitophagy and seven key mitophagy genes in schizophrenia,providing new insights into the pathogenesis of the disease.

Objective To evaluate the effect difference between intelligent information management system and traditional management mode in labor analgesia,and to discuss its influence on labor pain control and clinical application.Methods The study included 200 eligible pregnant women admitted to Xiamen Humanity Maternity Hospital from April 2022 to April 2023,who were randomly divided into an experimental group(Group A)and a control group(Group B),with 100 patients in each group.Group A utilized an intelligent information management system(REHN I analgesia pump system),while Group B employed a traditional electronic analgesia pump.The primary outcomes included Numerical Rating Scale(NRS)scores before analgesia,15 minutes after analgesia,and at full cervical dilation,as well as the proportion of patients with NRS≥7.Secondary outcomes included the number of pump presses,the number of effective presses,the proportion of active versus passive rescue measures,adverse reactions,and maternal satisfaction.Results Compared with Group B,Group A had significantly lower NRS scores at full cervical dilation(P<0.05),and a significantly lower proportion of patients with NRS≥7[10 cases(10.4%)vs 24 cases(25.2%),P<0.05].Group A also showed a higher proportion of active rescue measures(P<0.05)and significantly more effective presses(P<0.05).There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of adverse reactions and maternal satisfaction(P>0.05).Conclusion The intelligent information management system can significantly enhance the effectiveness of labor analgesia,decrease the incidence of severe maternal pain,reduce the frequency of active interventions by anesthesiologists,and improve the efficiency of analgesic management.Its application holds substantial value and potential for promotion.

Purpose:
During the COVID-19 pandemic, nurses have faced many professional and ethical dilemmas and challenges along with bearing physical, mental, and emotional stress resulting from worrying about themselves or their family being infected and stigmatized. This stress can potentially lead to burnout and resignation. Professional resilience is crucial for nurses to cope with these adverse situations. This study aimed to investigate the process by which nurses adapt, change, and overcome challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic and ultimately demonstrate professional resilience.
Methods:
Descriptive phenomenology was applied. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 11 nurses working in COVID-19 wards and intensive care units to collect data. Giorgi's phenomenological analysis method was employed.
Results:
Based on the interview responses, four major themes were identified: 1) balancing patient care, self-protection, and passing on experience; 2) providing timely pandemic team resources and social support; 3) nurses' perseverance amid social discourse and constrained lives; and 4) selfless dedication shaping nursing's pinnacle experiences.
Conclusions
In the face of a sudden pandemic, frontline nurses play a critical role in maintaining medical capacity. Consequently, they must balance their families, lives, and work while adapting to the impact of the pandemic and changing practices and procedures based on the development of the pandemic and policy demands. The study findings provide insights into the challenges and emotional experiences encountered by nurses during a sudden pandemic outbreak and can serve as a reference for developing strategies to help nurses overcome these challenges and enhance their professional resilience.

Objective To understand the current status and influencing factors of patient perception for humanistic care in China hospitals,and to provide a basis for developing nursing humanistic care measures and improving the quality of nursing humanistic care services.Methods A total of 30,099 outpatients and inpatients from 107 hospitals in 30 provinces(autonomous regions and municipalities)from July to August 2022 as survey subjects.A general information questionnaire and the Relational Caring Questionnaire-Patient Form were used for a cross-sectional survey,and a single-factor analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of patient relationship care.Results Finally,29 108 valid questionnaires were collected,and the effective questionnaire recovery rate was 96.7%.The patient evaluation of relationship care was(65.72±8.61)points.Single-factor analysis showed that gender,age,marital status,children's situation,education level,occupation,place of residence,average family income,medical insurance type,visiting department,and location of the visiting hospital,and whether or not surgery were influencing factors of patient relationship care(P<0.05).Conclusion The evaluation score of caregiver-patient relationship care among Chinese hospital patients is above average,but there is still room for improvement in western and rural regions,seriously ill and outpatient patients,low-income and low-medical insurance reimbursement populations,and non-surgical patients.Medical institutions at all levels should optimize and improve nursing humanistic care services based on influencing factors,and further enhance patients'perception of nursing humanistic care.

Objective:To explore the genetic basis for a child featuring global developmental delay and epilepsy.Methods:A child who had presented at Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center Liuzhou Hospital on February 19, 2023 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the child was collected. The child was subjected to whole exome sequencing, and candidate variant was validated by Sanger sequencing and bioinformatic analysis.Results:The child, an 8-month-old girl, had manifested with global developmental delay, epilepsy, and hyperlactacidemia. Cranial MRI revealed diverse hypomyelinating leukodystrophies. Electroencephalogram showed slow background activities. Genetic testing revealed that she has harbored a homozygous variant of the SLC25A12 gene, namely c. 115T>G (p.Phe39Val), for which both of her parents were heterozygous carriers. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics, the variant was predicted to be of uncertain significance (PM2_Supporting+ PM3_Supporting+ PP3_Moderate+ PP4_Moderate). I-Mutant v3.0 software predicted that the variant may affect the stability of protein product. Conclusion:The homozygous c. 115T>G (p.Phe39Val) variant of the SLC25A12 gene probably underlay the pathogenesis of the disease in this child.
