Objective:To comprehensively identify, describe and evaluate the research evidence on the application of ERAS in perioperative head and neck cancer by using the method of evidence mapping, so as to understand the research status and provide reference for clinical practice and future research in this field.Methods:Adopting an evidence-integrated research approach, PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database were searched by computer. In addition, relevant references and grey literature databases such as OpenGrey were manually searched until August 25, 2024, to screen and summarize the included literature, and different quality evaluation tools were used to evaluate the quality of the included studies. The present research situation was presented with text and graphs.Results:A total of 105 articles were included, including 101 original studies and 4 systematic reviews/Meta-analyses. The number of published literature showed an increasing trend over time, but it fluctuated in a zigzag pattern. The most published studies were in China, and the study population was mainly patients with laryngeal and oral cancer, with a sample size of 51-100 cases. The results of methodology quality evaluation showed that the quality of most studies was relatively low. The intervention measures mainly involved 9 subjects, such as pre-rehabilitation, nutritional support, prevention of nausea and vomiting, and the outcome indicators involved 2 aspects related to patients and hospital. More attention was paid to outcome indicators such as complication rate and length of stay, while less attention was paid to outcome indicators such as condition of sputum and survival time. Most outcome effects were shown to be "beneficial", but some outcome effects were still controversial.Conclusions:ERAS has generally shown positive effects in perioperative application of head and neck cancer, but the quality of most studies is low. More high-quality clinical studies are needed in the future to provide more sufficient evidence for the application of ERAS in this field.

Objective:To evaluate the image quality and radiation dose in contrast-enhanced thoracic-abdominal-pelvic CT using automatic tube voltage modulation (ATVM) coupled with artificial intelligence iterative reconstruction (AIIR) versus routine tube voltage combined with Karl-3D iterative reconstruction (Karl-3D IR), and to determine the optimal noise level for AIIR in contrast-enhanced thoracic-abdominal-pelvic CT.Methods:A total of 100 patients who underwent contrast-enhanced thoracic-abdominal-pelvic CT examination in the Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University from April to October, 2023 were randomly divided into group A and group B using a random number table, with 50 patients in each group. Group A was scanned using ATVM, and images were reconstructed using AIIR with 1-5 noise levels. Group B was scanned using tube voltage 120 kVp and images were reconstructed with Karl-3D IR and noise level 5. The single-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), effective dose (E), and size-specific dose estimate (SSDE) were recorded or calculated for all patients or images. Subjective evaluations of all images were performed. The quality of the reconstructed images using AIIR with 1-5 noise levels were compared and the optimal noise level of AIIR for image reconstruction was determined. Image quality and radiation dose were statistically analyzed for Group A (image reconstruction with optimal AIIR noise level) and Group B.Results:The mean SNR and mean CNR of the reconstructed images using AIIR with noise levels 1, 2, and 3 in group A were higher than those using AIIR with noise levels 4 and 5. The images reconstructed using AIIR with noise levels 3 and 4 scored higher in subjective assessment than those reconstructed using AIIR with noise levels 1, 2, and 5. Therefore, noise level 3 was optimal for AIIR in reconstruction of contrast-enhanced thoracic-abdominal-pelvic CT images. The mean SNR, mean CNR, and subjective evaluation score of group A using AIIR with noise level 3 were higher than those of group B using Karl-3D IR with noise level 5 ( P<0.001). The mean SSDE and the mean E of group A were reduced by 46% and 41%, respectively, compared with those of group B. Conclusions:ATVM technology combined with the AIIR algorithm can improve image quality and reduced patient radiation dose in contrast-enhanced thoracic-abdominal-pelvic CT. Noise level 3 is optimal for AIIR in the reconstruction of arterial-phase and venous-phase contrast-enhanced thoracic-abdominal-pelvic CT images.

Objective:To compare the image quality, radiation dose, and total iodine content of abdominal computed tomography (CT) enhancement scanning of overweight and obese patients with different scanning protocols, and to explore the optimal keV image serial for abdominal CT.Methods:A total of 90 overweight or obese patients [24 kg/m 2 ≤ body mass index (BMI) < 28 kg/m 2 or BMI ≥ 28 kg/m 2] were divied into groups A, B and C, with 30 patients in each group. Group A used Gemstone spectral imaging (GSI) mode and contrast medium with 320 mg I/ml, group B used low tube voltage mode (100 kVp) and contrast medium with 370 mg I/ml, and group C used conventional tube voltage mode (120 kVp) and contrast medium with 370 mg I/ml. Monochromatic energy images at 50-70 keV (5 keV interval) were reconstructed for the arterial and portal vein phases of group A. Radiation dose and total iodine content were recorded and calculated for the 3 groups. The region of interest was placed on the organ, blood vessel, and erector spinae muscle at same level. The CT values and image noise values were measured, and the contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) was calculated. All images were scored subjectively in double-blinded by two radiologists. One-way analysis of variance or Kruskal-Wallis H test were used to compare The CT values, CNRs, and subjective scores of each subgroup image in group A, group B and group C, and the radiation doses and total iodine contents in 3 groups were compared. The optimal keV value for group A was selected. Results:At 50-60 keV, the CT values and CNRs of arterial and portal vein phases in group A were higher ( P < 0.05) than or similar to those in groups B and C ( P > 0.05), and the subjective scores were lower than those of groups B and C at 50 and 55 keV ( H = 34.47, 41.27, P < 0.05), whereas there was no statistically significant difference at 60 keV ( P > 0.05). At 65 and 70 keV, only the CT value and CNR of the renal cortex in group A at the 65 keV of arterial phase were higher than those in groups B and C ( F = 102.38, 29.47, P < 0.001). The subjective scores were not significantly between groups B and C ( P > 0.05). There were no statistically significant difference between CT values, CNRs, or subjective scores in group B and group C ( P > 0.05). The effective doses in groups A and B were 24.72% and 25.78% lower than those in group C, respectively. Compared to groups B and C, the total iodine content in group A decreased by 12.50% and 13.34%, respectively. Conclusions:GSI model combined with a low-concentration contrast medium in abdominal CT for overweight and obese patients can meet the image quality requirements while reducing patient total iodine content and radiation dose. The optimal keV value of enhanced abdominal CT for double phases was 60 keV.

Objective:To summarize emergency rescue capacity evaluation tools for community nurses.Methods:China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, VIP, China Biology Medicine disc, PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Web of Science core collection, and other databases were searched by computer, and the search period was from the establishment of the databases to April 23, 2023. The relevant contents of emergency rescue capacity evaluation tools for community nurses were extracted and analyzed.Results:A total of 16 articles were included, involving seven kinds of emergency rescue capacity assessment tools for community nurses. The evaluation methods of the tools were all self-evaluation. The evaluation mainly involved the ability of nurses in four stages of emergency rescue prevention, preparation, response, and recovery.Conclusions:There are limitations in the evaluation content, method, and application effect of the emergency rescue capacity evaluation tools for community nurses. In the future, it is still necessary to develop or introduce foreign emergency rescue capacity evaluation tools with comprehensive evaluation content and good reliability and validity.
