Objective FOCUS-PDCA was applied to reduce the defect rate on the front page of medical records,and provide high quality data of medical records for medical institutions and administrative departments at all levels.Methods Start-ing from the increase of problems on the home page of a hospital in the"post-epidemic period",FOCUS-PDCA management mode was used,according to nine implementation steps,quality management tools such as Gantt chart,fishbone map and Plato were used to focus on,analyze and solve problems,and constantly repeated problems.The number of defects and the rate of defects on the front page of hospitalization records from January to March 2023 were taken as the control group to compare the changes before and after the implementation of the project.Results From January to March 2023,the number of defects on the homepage was 1 734,and the defect rate was 15.14％.After the implementation of the project,the number of defects on the homepage of Octo-ber to December 2023 was 890,and the defect rate was 6.54％,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion The method of applying FOCUS-PDCA to reduce the defect rate on the front page of inpatient medical records is ef-fective,which plays an important role in promoting the improvement of the quality of data such as basic patient information,hos-pitalization process information,and diagnosis and treatment information.

Objective To explore the effect of a self-developed augmented multi-task sensory exer-cise intervention on perceptual-motor skills and motor coordination in children with developmental coor-dination disorder(DCD).Methods Twenty-four DCD children aged 6～7 years were included and ran-domly divided into a control group(n=12)and an experimental group(n=12).Both groups maintained their daily physical activities and took P.E.classes in school,while the experimental group additional-ly underwent a multi-task somatosensory motor intervention consisting of 3 stages.Each stage lasted for 4 weeks,3 sessions per week,with progressively increased difficulty.A self-designed data process-ing module of the somatosensory intervention system was used to collect the scores of each task(i.e.,sensory-motor evaluation),and the changes in scores of each task at each stage were analyzed.More-over,before and after the intervention,the motor coordination ability was assessed using the Move-ment Assessment Battery for Children-Second Edition(MABC-2),and the intra-and inter-group dif-ferences in MABC-2 scores were analyzed.Two weeks after the intervention,the experimental group conducted 3 sessions of motor relearning at the difficulty level of the 3rd stage to examine the effects of motor retention and relearning.Results 1)The experimental group showed a significant increase in their scores on all tasks from T1 to T5 during the enhanced multi-task somatosensory training of all the three stages(P<0.001,P<0.05).2)After the kinesthetic exercises,the experimental group had sig-nificantly higher abilities in fine motor skills,positioning&grasping and body balance compared to the control group(P<0.05),with relatively greater effect on threading beads,drawing traces,tossing and catching bags,single-leg balance,tiptoe walking and two-legged hopping(η2≥0.114).3)In the assessment of motor skill retention and relearning,the T1～T4 scores in the first retest were lower than the previous final ones(P<0.05),with no significant difference from those at the end of the second stage,but showing significantly higher T1 and T5 scores.Moreover,all the T1～T5 scores reached the level measured at the previous end of stage three after three sessions of relearning.Conclusion The augmented multi-task somatosensory practice based on perception-motor skills theory can enhance the perception-motor skills and motor coordination ability of the DCD children,with good motor skill reten-tion and recovery effectiveness after such intervention.

Background and purpose:Polo-like kinase 4(PLK4)is a cell cycle regulatory protein,which is closely related to the occurrence and development of a variety of malignant tumors.The aim of this study was to investigate the role of PLK4 in the proliferation,invasion and apoptosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC).Methods:Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis 2(GEPIA2)and the University of Alabama at Birmingham Cancer Data Analysis Portal(UALCAN)were used to analyze the expression of PLK4 in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and surrounding normal tissues.Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RTFQ-PCR)and Western blot were employed to evaluate the mRNA and protein expression of PLK4 in OSCC cells.We further analyzed PLK4,phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K),phosphorylated phosphoinositide 3-kinase(p-PI3K),protein kinase B(AKT),phosphorylated protein kinase B(p-AKT),survivin,and cyclin D1 protein expression.The effects of PLK4 on cell proliferation,apoptosis and invasion were analyzed by cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)assay,flow cytometry and transwell assay.In addition,12 4-week-old SPF BALB/c female nude mice were divided into sh-NC group(n=6)and sh-PLK4 group(n=6)by random number table method.The sh-NC/sh-PLK4 cells were injected into the right anterior armpit of nude mice for subcutaneous tumor formation.The body weight,tumor volume and tumor weight of the two groups of nude mice were observed,and the stripped tumor tissues were analyzed by H-E staining.The animal experiments were approved by the Animal Experiment Center of Shandong Second Medical University(No:2024SDL840).Results:The results of GEPIA2 and UALCAN online databases showed that PLK4 was highly expressed in OSCC compared with normal tissues.In addition,PLK4 was highly expressed in OSCC cell lines(HN6,Cal-27,SCC-4,SCC-9,SCC-25)compared with oral mucosal epithelial cells(P＜0.05).Western blot results showed that the expression levels of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway proteins p-PI3K,p-AKT,cyclin D1 and survivin were decreased after PLK4 knockdown and increased after PLK4 overexpression in OSCC cells(P＜0.05).The cell proliferation activity and the number of transmembrane cells were positively correlated with the decrease and increase of PLK4 expression(P＜0.05),while the cell apoptotic rate was negatively correlated(P＜0.05),indicating that cell proliferation and apoptosis were both affected.In addition,compared with the sh-NC group,the tumor volume and weight of the nude mice in the sh-PLK4 group were decreased(P＜0.05),while there was no significant difference in the body weight of the nude mice between the two groups(P＞0.05).Moreover,the nuclear atypia of tumor tissues in sh-PLK4 group was lower than that in sh-NC group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:PLK4 can regulate the invasion,proliferation and apoptosis of OSCC cells,potentially through the activation of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE:At present,there are many reports on the related factors associated with the incidence of cervical spine instability in patients with rheumatoid arthritis,but there are problems such as small sample size and many confounding factors,and the research results of various studies on the same related factors are also different.This article analyzed the factors related to cervical spine instability in patients with rheumatoid arthritis by means of a systematic review. METHODS:Articles related to cervical spine instability in patients with rheumatoid arthritis were collected by searching both Chinese and English databases until March 2023.The outcome of cervical spine instability in patients with rheumatoid arthritis was used as the grouping criterion to abstract basic information,baseline patient characteristics,laboratory-related tests,medication use,and other relevant risk factors.Meta-analysis was done using Stata 14.0 software. RESULTS:(1)Sixteen relevant studies,all of moderate or above quality,were included,including seven studies with case-control studies and nine with cross-sectional studies.The overall incidence of cervical spine instability in patients with rheumatoid arthritis was 43.08%.(2)Meta-analysis showed:Related risk factors included female(OR=0.60,95%CI:0.44-0.82,P=0.002);age at disease onset(SMD=-0.52,95%CI:-0.86 to-0.18,P=0.003);duration of disease(SMD=0.58,95%CI:0.14-1.02,P=0.01);body mass index(OR=0.74,95%CI:0.63-0.88,P=0.001);rheumatoid factors positive univariate analysis subgroup(OR=1.33,95%CI:1.02 to 1.72,P=0.04),C-reactive protein(SMD=0.26,95%CI:0.16-0.35,P=0.00),erythrocyte sedimentation rate(SMD=0.15,95%CI:0.002-0.29,P=0.047),anti-cyclic-citrullinated peptide antibodies(OR=1.73,95%CI:1.19-2.51,P=0.004),28-joint Disease Activity Score(SMD=0.20,95%CI:0.04-0.37,P=0.02),destruction of peripheral joints(OR=2.48,95%CI:1.60-3.85,P=0.00),and corticosteroids(OR=1.91,95%CI:1.54-2.37,P=0.00)were strongly associated with the development of rheumatoid arthritis-cervical spine instability.Female and corticosteroid use were independently associated with the occurrence of rheumatoid arthritis-cervical spine instability. CONCLUSION:Based on clinical evidence from 16 observational studies,the overall incidence of rheumatoid arthritis-cervical spine instability was 43.08%.However,the incidence of cervical spine instability in rheumatoid arthritis patients varied greatly among different studies.Gender(female)and the use of corticosteroids were confirmed as independent correlation factors for the onset of cervical spine instability in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.The results of this study still provide some guidance for early clinical recognition,diagnosis,and prevention of rheumatoid arthritis-cervical spine instability.

Objective:To investigate the effect of different timing of arterial -venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) on the prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock (AMICS).Methods:This study was a prospective cohort study. AMICS patients received VA-ECMO support primary percutaneous coronary intervention in Henan Provincial People's Hospital from May 2017 to July 2023 were divided into early VA-ECMO group and late VA-ECMO group. 64 AMICS patients who met the indications for VA-ECMO implantation, but did not revive VA-ECMO were included as control group. Demographic characteristics, coronary interventional (PCI) information and complications after VA-ECMO implantation were collected. The primary end points was 1-year survival, minor end point were in-hospital and perioperative death. Multivariate Logistic and Cox regression models were used to evaluate the effect of timing of VA-ECMO on prognosis of AMICS patients. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to analyze the 1-year survival outcome of the 3 groups.Results:A total of 143 AMICS patients were included, and materials of 136 patients entered in the final analysis, including 42 in the early VA-ECMO group, 34 in the late VA-ECMO group, and 60 in the non-VA-ECMO group. Compared with the late VA-ECMO group, the early VA-ECMO group had a higher ratio of PPCI after VA-ECMO, a longer D-to-B time, a shorter VA-ECMO support time, a higher success rate of VA-ECMO withdrawal, and a lower complication rate (all P<0.05). Compared with the early VA-ECMO group, the perioperative, in-hospital and 1-year mortality were significantly higher in Non-ECMO support (all P<0.05). There was no difference in perioperative and in-hospital mortality between the early VA-ECMO group and the late VA-ECMO group, but the 1-year mortality in the late VA-ECMO group was significantly higher ( P<0.05). Perioperative, in-hospital and 1-year mortality rates were lower in the late VA-ECMO group than in the no-VA-ECMO group, but the differences were not statistically significant. Multivariate Logistic and Cox regression analysis showed that after adjusting interference factors, early VA-ECMO was still a protective factor for in-hospital ( OR=0.244, P=0.015) and one year ( HR=0.308, P=0.001)mortality. Kaplan-Merier survival curve showed that compared with the late VA-ECMO group and the group without VA-ECMO, the early VA-ECMO group had the highest 1-year survival rate. Conclusion:Patients with AMICS may benefit more from early VA-ECMO than from late VA-ECMO support for PPCI.

Feature extraction methods and classifier selection are two critical steps in heart sound classification. To capture the pathological features of heart sound signals, this paper introduces a feature extraction method that combines mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) and power spectral density (PSD). Unlike conventional classifiers, the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) was chosen as the classifier for this study. In terms of experimental design, we compared different PSDs across various time intervals and frequency ranges, selecting the characteristics with the most effective classification outcomes. We compared four statistical properties, including mean PSD, standard deviation PSD, variance PSD, and median PSD. Through experimental comparisons, we found that combining the features of median PSD and MFCC with heart sound systolic period of 100-300 Hz yielded the best results. The accuracy, precision, sensitivity, specificity, and F1 score were determined to be 96.50%, 99.27%, 93.35%, 99.60%, and 96.35%, respectively. These results demonstrate the algorithm's significant potential for aiding in the diagnosis of congenital heart disease.
