Objective:To explore the independent association between handgrip strength and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adult residents in Anhui Province using data from the China Adult Chronic Disease and Risk Factor Surveillance (2023).Methods:A multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select residents aged ≥18 years for surveys, physical measurements, and laboratory tests. Relevant covariates were adjusted, and a multivariable logistic regression model was established to infer the association between handgrip strength and CKD, followed by subgroup analysis.Results:A total of 7 295 participants were included in the study, with age of (61.5±13.2) years, and 55.6% of the study participants were women. The results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that with each 1.0 kg increase in handgrip strength, the risk for CKD decreased by 1.3% ( OR=0.987, 95% CI: 0.978-0.997). Compared with those with low handgrip strength, the people with moderate hasdgrip strength ( OR=0.818, 95% CI: 0.694-0.964) and high handgrip strength ( OR=0.729, 95% CI: 0.598-0.989) had lower risk for CKD. In the subgroup analysis, the association between handgrip strength and risk for CKD remained unchanged regardless age, sex, smoking status, and alcohol consumption statuys, and the prevalence of hypertension and hyperlipidemia (interaction P>0.05), except BMI and diabetes. Conclusion:The decline in handgrip strength is associated with an increased risk for CKD in adult residents in Anhui.

Objective:To systematically integrate the work experience of medical and nursing staff in the remote home palliative care model, so as to provide a reference for improving remote home palliative care services.Methods:Qualitative studies on medical and nursing staff providing remote home palliative care were electronically searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, ProQuest, CINAHL, PsycINFO, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, VIP, and China Biology Medicine disc. The search period was from database establishment to April 30, 2024. Literature quality evaluation was conducted using the Joanna Briggs Institute Center for Evidence-Based Health Care Quality Assessment Criteria for Qualitative Research. The aggregative integration method was used to synthesize the findings.Results:Researchers repeatedly read, analyzed, and interpreted the 17 included literature, extracting 56 themes and summarizing eight new categories, and further synthesized three integrated results, namely, remote home palliative care provided patients with comprehensive physical, psychological, and mental care, as well as guidance and support for family members; remote home care helped to achieve full coverage of palliative care services; equipment limitations, information security risks, and incomplete processes restricted the development of remote palliative care.Conclusions:Remote home palliative care has improved patient care and family support capabilities, expanded service coverage, and promoted interdisciplinary collaboration. However, there are still issues such as equipment limitations, information security risks, and incomplete processes. Optimizing processes, improving safety mechanisms, and strengthening collaboration platforms will contribute to sustainable development.

【Objective】 To understand the obesity status of Kazakh children and adolescents in the agricultural and pastoral areas of Xinjiang and its association with lifestyle, so as to provide reference and help for maintaining good body shape and health intervention for Kazakh children and adolescents in agricultural and pastoral areas. 【Methods】 From April to June 2022, 6 242 Kazakh children and adolescents aged 10 - 20 years were tested for obesity and surveyed by lifestyle questionnaires using stratified whole-group sampling in the farming and herding areas of Yili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture and Altay Region, Xinjiang. χ² test and Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze data. 【Results】 The obesity detection rate of Kazakh children and adolescents in Xinjiang farming and herding areas was 18.71%, with higher rates in boys (22.24%) compared to girls (15.12%), and the difference was statistically significant (χ² =52.04, P<0.01). Significant differences were observed in the obesity rates based on grade level, fruit consumption frequency, screen time of television, feeling hopeful for the future, fatigue, loneliness, and sadness (χ² =24.29, 4.61, 694.51, 7.15, 10.33, 6.51, 8.07, P<0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that female students (OR=0.63, 95%CI: 0.56 - 0.69) and students who felt hopeful about the future (OR=0.96, 95%CI: 0.94 - 0.99) were protective factors against obesity (P<0.05); while high school and lower grades (senior high school OR=1.38, 95%CI: 1.24 - 1.57; junior high school OR=1.82, 95%CI: 1.58 - 2.06; primary school OR=2.67, 95%CI: 2.33 - 2.99), fruit consumption ≥1time/d (OR=1.07, 95%CI: 1.03 - 1.16), watching TV ≥2h/d (OR=1.07, 95%CI: 1.02 - 1.17), frequent feeling of fatigue (OR=1.07, 95%CI: 1.03 - 1.12), loneliness (OR=1.08, 95%CI: 1.02~1.19) and sadness (OR= 1.09, 95%CI: 1.04 - 1.14) of students were risk factors for the development of obesity (P<0.05). 【Conclusions】 The obesity rate of Kazakh children and adolescents in the agricultural and pastoral areas of Xinjiang is high and closely associated with lifestyle. Therefore, it is crucial to improve unhealthy lifestyles in order to reduce obesity and promote the physical and mental well-being of this population.

Objective     To study the correlation of preoperative hemoglobin amount with venous thromboembolism (VTE) after surgical treatment of bronchiectasis and the clinical significance. Methods     A retrospective study was performed on patients with bronchiectasis who underwent surgical treatment in our center from June 2017 to November 2021. The differences in blood parameters between the VTE patients and non-VTE patients were compared. The relationship between preoperative hemoglobin and VTE was confirmed by quartile grouping and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results     A total of 122 patients were enrolled, including 50 males and 72 females, with a mean age of 52.52±12.29 years. The overall incidence of VTE after bronchiectasis was 9.02% (11/122). Preoperative hemoglobin amount (OR=0.923, 95%CI 0.870-0.980, P=0.008) and D-dimer amount (OR=1.734, 95%CI 1.087-2.766, P=0.021) were independent influencing factors for VTE after bronchiectasis. The incidence of VTE after bronchiectasis decreased gradually with the increase of preoperative hemoglobin amount. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of postoperative D-dimer alone was 0.757, whereas the AUC of postoperative D-dimer combined with preoperative hemoglobin amount was 0.878. Conclusion     Low preoperative hemoglobin is an independent risk factor for postoperative VTE. Postoperative D-dimer combined with preoperative hemoglobin amount has a better predictive performance compared with postoperative D-dimer alone for postoperative VTE.

Objective:To identify the risk factors and develop nomogram for idiopathic chronic pancreatitis (ICP) patients with common bile duct stricture (CBDS).Methods:The clinical data of 1 633 ICP patients admitted to the Department of Gastroenterology of First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from January 2000 to December 2013 were collected retrospectively and prospectively. The patients were classified into CBDS group ( n=259) and non-CBDS group ( n=1 374) according to whether CBDS occurred. The cumulative incidence of CBDS after the onset and diagnosis of ICP were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. After excluding patients who had developed CBDS before/or at the diagnosis of ICP, the remaining patients were randomly divided into the training set and the validation set. The univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis were used to establish a risk predicting nomogram for CBDS after ICP onset. Its clinical application value was evaluated through the consistency index (C index). Results:15.9%(259/1 633) of patients developed CBDS after the onset of ICP. The cumulative incidence of CBDS at 3, 5, and 10 years after the onset of ICP was 9.6% (95% CI 0.082-0.111), 11.2% (95% CI 0.097-0.129) and 16.2% (95% CI 0.142-0.184), respectively. 9.4%(143/1 517) of patients developed CBDS after the diagnosis of ICP. The cumulative incidence of CBDS at 3, 5, and 10 years after the diagnosis of ICP was 8.3% (95% CI 0.069-0.099), 8.9% (95% CI 0.074-0.105) and 13.3% (95% CI 0.110-0.162), respectively. Univariate analysis found that factors including gender, age at onset of ICP, age at diagnosis of ICP, being adolescents at onset of ICP, smoking history, alcohol intake, initial manifestations, pancreatic duct stones, fatty steatorrhea, main pancreatic duct (MPD) morphology and pain type were significantly different between CBDS group and non-CBDS group. Multivariate analysis showed that male ( HR 2.134, 95% CI 1.336-3.408), age at diagnosis of ICP ( HR 1.038, 95% CI 1.024-1.052), first manifestation (pancreatic abdominal pain) and main duct morphology (complex lesion) were identified as independent risk factors for CBDS in ICP patients. A nomogram for predicting CBDS after ICP diagnosis was established based on the above four variables. The nomogram had a C-index of 0.740 (95% CI 0.700-0.790) for internal validation in the training set and 0.650 (95% CI 0.570-0.730) for external validation in the validation set. Conclusions:The nomogram established in this study can evaluate the risk of developing CBDS in ICP patients, benefit the early diagnosis and timely intervention of CBDS in clinical practice, and prevent potential related complications.
