Postoperative pain seriously affects the recovery process of patients, resulting in prolonged hospital stay and increased care costs. Appropriate application of patient-controlled analgesia devices can effectively relieve perioperative acute pain. In 1994 patient-controlled analgesia began to be used in Peking Union Medical College Hospital, and the Acute Pain Service Working Group was established in 2004. With the cooperation of anesthesiologists and specialist nurses, the group jointly has implemented the whole process and standardized management based on patient-controlled analgesia, and constantly improved and innovated working methods, laying a solid foundation for the development of postoperative pain management. This paper systematically reviews and summarizes the work from the aspects of clinical focus, nursing management experience, promotion and dissemination of pain treatment concepts, and development of acute pain service model under the new situation, with the hope of providing valuable reference for comprehensively strengthening pain management in the process of diagnosis and treatment, and enhancing patients' satisfaction with perioperative analgesia services.

Objective:To explore the changes in serum levels of miR-499 and miR-362 in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and their relationship with prognosis.Methods:A total of 103 patients with advanced NSCLC at Shanghai University of Medicine & Health Sciences Affiliated Chongming Hospital from January 2020 to October 2021 were selected as the NSCLC group, and 100 healthy volunteers who underwent physical examinations at our hospital during the same period were selected as the control group. Fluorescent quantitative PCR was used to determine and compare the levels of serum miR-499 and miR-362 in the two groups, and the relationship between the two indexes and different clinical characteristics of NSCLC patients was analyzed. According to the clinical outcome of 2-year follow-up, the patients were divided into survival group and death group, and the levels of serum miR-499 and miR-362 were compared between the two groups. The predictive value of miR-499 and miR-362 levels on the prognosis of advanced NSCLC patients were analyzed using receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves.Results:The serum miR-499 level in the NSCLC group (0.34±0.10) was lower than that in the control group (1.25±0.21), while the miR-362 level (1.13±0.27) was higher than that in the control group (0.63±0.15) ( t=18.26, P<0.001; t=16.32, P<0.001). There were statistically significant differences in serum miR-499 and miR-362 levels among patients with different degrees of differentiation ( t=11.12, P<0.001; t=16.35, P<0.001), TNM staging ( t=13.64, P=0.002; t=8.73, P=0.010) and lymph node metastasis ( t=10.02, P=0.003; t=9.65, P=0.004). The serum miR-499 level in the death group ( n=77) (0.24±0.06) was lower than that in the survival group ( n=26) (0.35±0.09), while the miR-362 level (1.54±0.32) was higher than that in the survival group (1.08±0.21), with statistically significant differences ( t=8.06, P=0.006; t=8.67, P=0.005). ROC curve analysis showed that the sensitivity of miR-499 and miR-362 in predicting the prognosis of advanced NSCLC patients was 73.46% and 75.85%, respectively, with specificity of 64.42% and 65.61%, AUC of 0.739 (95% CI: 0.662-0.805) and 0.743 (95% CI: 0.640-0.793) ; the sensitivity, specificity, and AUC of serum miR-499 combined with miR-362 in predicting the prognosis of advanced NSCLC patients were 87.63%, 85.34%, and 0.875 (95% CI: 0.698-0.897), respectively; the combined prediction of miR-499 and miR-362 for AUC area was higher than the individual prediction ( Z=4.83, P=0.013; Z=5.17, P=0.009) . Conclusion:Advanced NSCLC patients show significant abnormal serum level of miR-499 and miR-362, and as the severity of the disease progressed, the serum level of miR-499 is downregulated more significantly and miR-362 is upregulated more significantly. The combined detection of miR-499 and miR-362 levels has certain predictive value for the prognosis of advanced NSCLC patients.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection among patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in some regions of China. Methods Serum samples were collected from 3 131 patients with chronic HBV infection in 10 provinces, cities, and autonomous regions of China from March 2021 to June 2022, and anti-HDV IgG ELISA was used for the detection of all serum samples. Nested reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (nRT-PCR) was used to detect HDV RNA in anti-HDV IgG-positive samples, and the nRT-PCR amplification products of HDV RNA-positive samples were sequenced and analyzed to determine HDV genotype. The clinical features of anti-HDV IgG-positive patients were analyzed. The Mann-Whitney U rank sum test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, and the chi-square test or the Fisher's exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. Results The positive rate of anti-HDV IgG in the 3 131 patients with chronic HBV infection was 0.70% (22/3 131), and that in the patients with chronic HBV infection in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Beijing, and Hunan Province was 1.81% (16/886), 0.88% (2/226), 0.28% (2/708), and 1.00% (2/200), respectively; the patients with chronic HBV infection in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region had a significantly higher positive rate of anti-HDV IgG than those in Beijing ( P =0.004), and there was no significant difference between the other regions ( P > 0.05). Clinical features of the patients with chronic HBV infection in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region showed that compared with the anti-HDV IgG-negative group, the anti-HDV IgG-positive group had a significantly higher proportion of patients with Mongol nationality ( P =0.001), abnormal alanine aminotransferase ( P =0.007), or antiviral treatment ( P =0.029), as well as a significantly lower median HBV DNA level ( P =0.030). A total of 19 HDV RNA-positive samples were identified, all of which had HDV genotype 1. Conclusion The prevalence rate of HDV varies greatly across different regions of China, with a higher prevalence rate of HDV in patients with chronic HBV infection from Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. HDV genotype 1 is the predominant genotype in some provinces and cities of northern China.
