Objective:To review the clinical status based on the best evidence of drug administration in patients with dysphagia, systematically analyze the obstacle factors and promoting factors in the process of evidence transformation, and formulate reform strategies.Methods:Based on the evidence-based nursing research method and the guidance of the Ottawa Model of Research Use (OMRU), the review indicators were developed based on the best evidence. The current status of clinical practice behaviors of 223 patients and 75 nurses in the Neurology, Neurosurgery and Geriatric departments of the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University were reviewed from July to December 2021.Based on the results of the review, qualitative interviews were conducted with 32 potential adopters, and content analysis was used to assess the barriers and contributing factors to the clinical translation of evidence in three aspects: evidence-based change, potential adopters and practice environment, so as to develop effective strategies.Results:Based on the 22 best evidence selected, the evidence-based team developed 25 review indicators to carry out clinical review, showing that the compliance rate of 16 indicators were less than 60%. By analyzing and summarizing the interview results of potential adopters, the main obstacles leading to the low compliance rate of nurses were analyzed as follows: evidence-based reform changed the traditional work mode, and the application of evidence was not convenient; at the level of potential adopters, nurses had poor knowledge and practice, heavy work burden, and low awareness of patients and caregivers; at the level of practice environment, there was lack of nursing norms and procedures for clinical transformation of evidence, and the channels of multi-disciplinary collaboration and communication were not smooth. The main promoting factors were the perfect supervision mechanism of evidence-based nursing projects, the evidence-based group had rich experience in evidence transformation, the management was willing to change, and the practitioners were good at innovation.Conclusions:There is still a large gap between the clinical practice and the best evidence of drug administration in patients with dysphagia. The promoting factors should be fully utilized to overcome the obstacles and implement improvements to promote the effective transformation of evidence into clinical practice.

Objective To discuss the application value of XperCT combined with needle-guided Glubran-2 glue for small pulmonary nodule localization in thoracoscopic pulmonary nodule resection.Methods The clinical data of 67 patients,who received XperCT combined with needle-guided Glubran-2 glue for small pulmonary nodule localization before thoracoscopic resection of a single small pulmonary nodule at the Jining Municipal First People's Hospital of China between June 2018 and February 2023,were retrospectively analyzed.The size of the pulmonary nodule,the maximum vertical distance from the visceral pleura to the lesion,the technical success rate of localization,the number of puncturing times,the complications,the time spent for operation,and the postoperative pathological diagnosis were recorded.Results The average size of the small pulmonary nodules in the 67 patients was 8.7 mm,and the average vertical distance from the visceral pleura to the lesion was 19.4 mm.Successful preoperative localization of nodule was accomplished in all patients.The average number of puncturing times was 1.1,and no serious complications occurred.The average time spent for operation was 12.7 min.Definite pathological results were obtained in all 67 patients.Conclusion XperCT combined with needle-guided Glubran-2 glue for small pulmonary nodule localization carries advantage of accurate localization with fewer complications.Therefore,this technique is a highly-efficient and quickly-accomplished positioning method,and it is highly valuable in clinical practice.(J Intervent Radiol,2024,33:623-626)

Background::The heavy metals cadmium (Cd) and mercury (Hg) are known to be widespread environmental contaminants and high occupational exposure adversely affects the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, evidence from epidemiological studies linking low Cd and Hg exposure (or non-industrial) to the risk of progression to CKD are conflicting. This study aimed to explore the association of low Cd and Hg exposure with the risk of CKD in Chinese adults aged ≥80 years.Methods::The participants were recruited for the Healthy Aging and Biomarkers Cohort Study in 2017, an ongoing perspective survey conducted in longevity areas in China initially involving 3016 older adults. We used logistic regression models to estimate odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals of CKD setting Cd and Hg as categorical variables. Logistic regression with restricted cubic spline was used to characterize a dose-response relationships between Cd or Hg concentrations and the risk of CKD in the study population.Results::The ORs for the risk of CKD comparing the fourth to the first quartile of blood Cd, blood Hg, urine Cd, and urine Hg were 1.77, 1.57, 2.03, and 1.50, respectively. Restricted cubic spline models showed that blood Cd and urine Hg were significantly linearly correlated with the risk of CKD, while blood Hg and urine Cd were non-linearly correlated with the risk of CKD with a steeper slope at concentrations <2.30 μg/L and 3.30 μg/g creatinine.Conclusions::Our findings suggest that even low Cd and Hg exposure (or non-industrial) were associated with increased risk of CKD in Chinese oldest old, although we did not find a significant multiplicative and additive interaction between Cd and Hg levels in relation to the risk of CKD.

Objective:To examine the association of blood uric acid (UA) and cognitive impairment (CI) among oldest-old adults in China.Methods:Data was collected in 9 longevity areas of China from Healthy Aging and Biomarkers Cohort Study (HABCS) conducted during 2017-2018. Finally,1, 622 elderly aged 80 years and older with complete information on blood UA and cognitive function score were included in this study. Information on demographic characteristics, lifestyle, and health status were collected through questionnaire and physical examination. Venous blood samples of the participants were collected to test blood UA level. Cognitive impairment (CI) was assessed using the Chinese Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) according to personal educational level. Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE) model for binary data was used to analyze the association of blood UA and CI, and further compared the associations among different age and body mass index (BMI) groups.Results:Of the 1 622 oldest-old, the mean age was (92.2±8.1) years, 656 (40.4%) were male, the mean level of blood UA was (343.3±86.2) μmol/L, and 482 (29.7%) oldest-old had CI. Compared with the lowest quartile of UA, the risks of CI in the second, third and highest quartiles were gradually reduced, the corresponding ORs and 95% CI were 0.99 (0.71-1.33), 0.87 (0.68-0.94) and 0.69 (0.48-0.85), respectively; and the linear trend test was statistically significant ( P<0.001). Subgroup analysis showed that the effects of higher UA associated with lower risk of CI were stronger in younger oldest-old (aged 80-89 years) and thinner group (BMI<24) ( Pinteraction<0.05). Conclusions:Blood UA was negatively associated with the risk of having CI in the oldest-old among the nine longevity areas of China.

Objective:To investigate the association of blood oxidative stress level with hypertriglyceridemia in the elderly aged 65 years and older in China.Methods:A total of 2 393 participants aged 65 years and older were recruited in 9 longevity areas from Heathy Aging and Biomarkers Cohort Study, during 2017 to 2018. Information on demographics characteristic, life style and health status were collected by questionnaire and physical examination, and venous blood was collected to detect the levels of blood oxidative stress and hypertriglyceridemia. The linear or non-linear association between oxidative stress and hypertriglyceridemia was described by restrictive cubic splines (RCS) fitting multiple linear regression model. The generalized linear mixed effect model was conducted to assess the association between oxidative stress and hypertriglyceridemia.Results:A total of 2 393 participants, mean age was 84.6 years, the youngest was 65 and the oldest was 112, the male was 47.9%(1 145/2 393), the triglyceride level was (1.4±0.8) mmol/L. The hypertriglyceridemia detection rate was 9.99%(239/2 393). The results of multiple linear regression model with restrictive cubic spline fitting showed that MDA level was linear association with triglyceride level; SOD level was nonlinear association with triglyceride level. MDA level had significantly association with hypertriglyceridemia, and the corresponding OR value was 1.063 (95% CI: 1.046,1.081) with 1 nmol/ml increment of blood MDA; SOD level had significantly association with hypertriglyceridemia, and the corresponding OR value was 0.986(95% CI: 0.983,0.989) with 1 U/ml increment of blood SOD. Conclusion:Among the elderly aged 65 and older in 9 longevity areas in China, MDA and SOD levels were associated with the risk of hypertriglyceridemia.

Objective:To investigate the association between oxygen saturation (SpO 2) and risk of 3-year all-cause mortality among Chinese older adults aged 65 or over. Methods:The participants were enrolled from Healthy Aging and Biomarkers Cohort Study in year of 2012 to 2014 in 9 longevity areas in China. In this prospective cohort study, 2 287 participants aged 65 or over were enrolled. Data on SpO 2 and body measurements were collected at baseline in 2012, and data on survival outcome and time of mortality were collected at the follow-up in 2014. Participants were divided into two groups according to whether SpO 2 was abnormal (SpO 2<94% was defined as abnormal). Results:The 2 287 participants were (86.5±12.2) years old, 1 006 were males (44.0%), and 315 (13.8%) were abnormal in SpO 2. During follow-up in 2014, 452 were died, 1 434 were survived, and 401 were lost to follow-up. The all-cause mortality rate was 19.8%, and the follow-up rate was 82.5%. The mortality rate of SpO 2 in normal group was 21.1%, and that of abnormal group was 41.6% ( P<0.001). After adjusting for confounding factors, compared to participants with normal SpO 2, participants with abnormal SpO 2 had increased risk of all-cause mortality with HR (95% CI) of 1.62 (1.31-2.02); HR (95 % CI) was 1.49 (0.98-2.26) for males and 1.71 (1.30-2.26) for females in abnormal SpO 2group, respectively; HR (95% CI) was 2.70 (0.98-7.44) for aged 65-79 years old, 1.22 (0.63-2.38) for aged 80-89 years old, and 1.72 (1.35-2.19) for aged over 90 years old in abnormal SpO 2 group, respectively. Conclusion:Abnormal SpO 2 was responsible for increased risk of 3-year all-cause mortality among Chinese elderly adults.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the risk of depression symptoms among older adults aged 65 and above in 9 longevity areas of China.Methods:Data was collected in 9 longevity areas of China from Healthy Aging and Biomarkers Cohort Study (HABCS) conducted between 2017 and 2018. Finally,2018 elderly aged 65 years and above with complete information on neutrophil count, lymphocyte count and depressive symptoms were included in this study. Information on demographic characteristics, lifestyle, and health status was collected through questionnaire and physical examination. Complete blood counts which included lymphocytes and neutrophils were obtained by testing venous blood samples. Participants were divided into four groups by the quartile of NLR level, i.e. Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4. Logistic regression model was applied to analyze the association of NLR with depression symptoms. Results:Among 2 018 older adults, the mean(±SD) age was 82.6(±10.73), 1 032(51.14%) were male, 390(19.33%) were detected with depressive symptoms. Compared with participants of NLR in the 1 st quartile, the OR(95% CI) of risk for depressive symptoms was 1.47 (0.99, 2.19), 1.67 (1.13, 2.47) and 1.95 (1.32, 2.89), respectively. Conclusion:Increased NLR level is significantly related to depressive symptoms among elderly aged 65 years and above in 9 longevity areas in China.
