With the accelerating trend of population aging, the number of elderly patients with lung cancer continues to rise, and the disease burden is becoming increasingly heavy. The clinical management of these patients faces severe challenges due to their decreased physiological reserve, complex comorbidities, and significant individual heterogeneity. Consequently, under traditional diagnosis and treatment models, doctors often struggle to identify the individualized risks of elderly patients in a timely and comprehensive manner, which can easily lead to decision biases such as undertreatment or overtreatment. In view of this, this study advocates for the establishment of an umbrella decision-making model specifically tailored for elderly lung cancer patients. Grounded in a multidisciplinary team (MDT) platform, this model deeply integrates oncological indicators with the comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) system. By holistically considering multidimensional variables including tumor burden, organ function, frailty index, cognitive status, and social support, the model establishes an operational mechanism characterized by "single entry, precise stratification, and targeted selection". Accordingly, patients can be scientifically triaged into distinct intervention tiers, such as active surveillance, minimally invasive surgery, drug therapy, radiotherapy, and best supportive care, thereby achieving real-time alignment between treatment intensity and patient fitness. This article elaborates on the construction logic and key operational procedures of this novel decision-making framework, aiming to guide clinical practice beyond the limitations of a tumor-centric perspective toward a holistic, dynamic, whole-course management strategy. This transition seeks to ensure optimal quality of life and clinical net benefit for elderly patients alongside survival prolongation.

Objective To explore the effect of job satisfaction on job burnout among administrative staff in public hospitals and to examine the mediating effect of career growth in this relationship. Methods A total of 384 administrative staff from 20 public hospitals in Tianjin City were recruited as participants using the convenience sampling method. Their job burnout, job satisfaction, and career growth were measured with the Maslach Burnout Inventory, Job Satisfaction Scale, and Career Growth Scale, respectively. A structural equation model was constructed using AMOS 23.0, and the mediating effect was examined with the Bootstrap method. Results The mean scores of job burnout, job satisfaction, and career growth among participants were (43.1±15.4), (14.4±5.7), and (8.3±4.2), respectively. The results of the mediating effect analysis showed that career growth played a significant mediating role between job satisfaction and job burnout among the public hospital administrative staff, with the mediating effect accounting for approximately 22.2% to 52.2% of the total effect. Conclusion Job satisfaction of public hospital administrative staff can directly affect their job burnout, and it can also influence job burnout through the mediating effect of career growth. Effective measures to improve job satisfaction and promote career growth may help alleviate job burnout among administrative staff in public hospitals.

Due to the poor ionization efficiency and the weak mass spectrometry(MS)intensity of weakly polar substances,direct analysis using the traditional electrospray ionization mass spectrometry(ESI-MS)is a big challenge.In this study,a novel rapid on-site detection method of four prohibited sex hormones in cosmetics was proposed using online derivatization strategy coupled with a miniature mass spectrometer.The target substances in the samples were extracted by a custom-made polyaniline/multi-walled carbon nanotube solid-phase microextraction(SPME)probe.The stirring speed was 200 r/min,the extraction temperature was 40℃,and the extraction time was 2 min.A pulled dual-channel θ borosilicate glass capillary emitter was used as the nano-ESI ion source.The SPME probe was inserted into the channel containing methanol in theθborosilicate glass capillary.When the spray voltage was applied,the four sex hormones were desorbed and formed spray microdroplets,which then collided with the hydroxylamine microdroplets generated from the other channel.The microdroplets of reaction product entered into the miniature mass spectrometer for direct analysis.The limits of detection(LOD)and limits of quantification(LOQ)for the four sex hormones were 10-20 ng/mL and 20-50 ng/mL,respectively.The recoveries were from 84.6%to 107.8%with the relative standard deviations(RSD)from 4.1%to 11.6%.Compared to detection without derivatization,the MS signals of the four target substances were increased by 3 to 15 times.This method was simple,rapid,highly efficient and sensitive,and suitable for on-site rapid analysis of weakly polar sex hormones in cosmetics.

OBJECTIVE T o explore the clinical characteristics and risk factors for plastic bronchitis(PB)in the chil-dren with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP).METHODS A retrospective case-control study was con-ducted for the medical data of the children with MPP who hospitalized in pediatrics department of Affiliated Hos-pital of Jining Medical College and underwent bronchoscopy and bronchoalveolar lavage from Jan.2023 to Dec.2024.The enrolled children were divided into the PB group and the non-PB group according to the status of complication with PB.The baseline data,clinical characteristics,laboratory test indexes,imaging features,bron-choscopy findings and treatment outcomes were observed and compared between the two groups of children.RESULTS A total of 734 children with MPP were included in the study,131 of whom were assigned as the PB group,and 603 were assigned as the non-PB group.The children were younger[4.83(1.88,7.00)years],the du-ration of fever was longer,the peak temperature was higher[39.50(39.20,39.80)℃],the percentage of compli-cation with pleural effusion was higher(33.59％),the percentage of extrapulmonary organs involved was higher(27.48％),the levels of white blood cells,neutrophils percentage,C-reactive protein(CRP),lactic dehydrogen-ase(LDH),D-dimer(DD)and alanine aminotransferase(ALT)were higher in the PB group than in the non-PB group,and there were significant differences(P＜0.05).There were significant differences in the percentage of mucosal necrosis under bronchoscopy,number of times of treatments assisted by bronchoscopy and length of hospital stay between the two groups(P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS The MPP children with PB are characterized by younger rage,longer duration of fever,higher peak temperature,higher percentage of complication with pleural effusion,extrapulmonary organs more likely to be involved,more intensive inflammatory reactions and higher percentage of mucosal necrosis under bronchoscopy.Some of the children need to be treated repeatedly with assis-tance of bronchoscopy,and the length of hospital stay is long.

Objective:To analyze the electroencephalogram(EEG) average relative power spectrum in patients with unipolar and bipolar depression under the eyes-open and eyes-closed resting states.Methods:A total of 38 patients with unipolar depression (UD group), 48 patients with bipolar depression (BD group), and 43 healthy controls (HC group) were recruited from August 2022 to December 2023.The 64-channel EEG was recorded under eyes-open (EO) and eyes-closed (EC) resting states which alternated twice. The Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis H test were performed by SPSS 25.0 software. Results:There were no significant differences in the average relative power of delta and beta bands among the UD, BD and HC groups in all EO and EC states (all P>0.05). The average relative power of theta band in the three groups showed statistically significant differences in all EO and EC states ( H=7.852-12.583, all P<0.05). Further pairwise comparisons showed that in the first EO and EC stage, the average relative power of theta band of the UD and BD groups were significantly higher than that of the HC group (EO1: 0.18(0.17, 0.21), 0.19(0.16, 0.21), 0.16(0.14, 0.18), EC1: 0.15(0.13, 0.21), 0.15(0.13, 0.20), 0.13(0.10, 0.16); all P<0.05).In the second EO and EC stage, the average relative power of theta band of the BD group was significantly higher than that of the HC group (EO2: 0.18(0.15, 0.22), 0.16(0.14, 0.18), EC2: 0.15(0.13, 0.19), 0.13(0.11, 0.16); both P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the average relative power of alpha band among the three groups in the first EO and EC stage, as well as the second EC stage ( H=5.027-10.668, all P<0.05). Further pairwise comparisons showed that in the first EO stage, the average relative power of alpha band in the BD group was significantly higher than that in the UD group (0.20(0.16, 0.25), 0.14(0.11, 0.22), P=0.003), and in the following EC stages, the average relative power of alpha band in the UD group was significantly lower than that in the HC group (EC1: 0.40(0.33, 0.46), 0.51(0.40, 0.58), EC2: 0.41(0.35, 0.50), 0.48(0.43, 0.58); both P<0.05). Conclusion:At the initial stage of the resting state, both unipolar and bipolar depression patients demonstrate abnormal theta band activity under the eyes-open and eyes-closed states, while the alpha band activity under the eyes-open condition differs between the two groups of patients. These findings may provide potentially objective biomarkers to assist the diagnosis of unipolar and bipolar depression patients in clinical settings.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors of substandard steady state blood trough concentration of meropenem in the first monitoring.Methods Patients who were treated with meropenem and monitored steady-state blood trough concentration from July 2021 to June 2023 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University were selected as the study subjects,and the patient's age,gender,and other medical history data were recorded.The steady-state blood trough concentration of meropenem was determined and the target was identified.According to the monitoring results,the patients were categorized into the standard group(2.0-16.0 mg·L-1)and non-standard group(＜2.0 mg·L-1 in the low concentration group and＞16.0 mg·L-1 in the high concentration group).Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses of relevant variables were performed for the low and high concentration groups,respectively,compared with the standard group to screen for risk factors for substandard steady-state trough concentration of meropenem.Results A total of 324 patients were included,there were 189 cases(58.33％)were reached the standard concentration,while 135 cases(41.67％)were failed to meet the standard(86 cases in low concentration group and 49 cases in high concentration group).The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that glomerular filtration rate(P＜0.05),abumin(P＜0.05)and craniocerebral diseases(P＜0.05)were risk factors in the low concentration group compared with the standard group,the glomerular filtration rate of patients with brain injury was significantly higher than patients without brain injury;cystatin-C(P＜0.05)was a protective factor for the concentration of meropenem in both groups.The daily dose of meropenem(P＜0.05)and procalcitonin(P＜0.05)were risk factors for high meropenem blood concentrations in the high-concentration group compared with the standard group,whereas glomerular filtration rate(P＜0.05)was ta protective factor for the concentration of meropenem in the two groups.Conclusion Glomerular filtration rate,albumin and brain injury were risk factors for low steady-state blood trough concentrations of meropenem,whereas daily dose of meropenem and procalcitonin of meropenem were risk factors of high steady-state blood trough concentrations of meropenem.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of sweet potato leaf extract on production per-formance,systematic and mammary gland oxidative stress status and rumen microbiota of dairy goats fed high concentrate diets.Twenty Guanzhong dairy goats with same parity,similar lactation period(120±15)d and healthy body condition were selected and randomly divided into four groups:low-concentrate(LC),low-concentrate supplemented with 1％sweet potato leaf extract(LCS),high-concentrate(HC)and high-concentrate supplemented with 1％sweet potato leaf ex-tract(HCS).The experimental period was 35 days.The results showed that in the third week,milk yield in the HCS group was significantly higher than that in the LC and LCS groups(P＜0.05).The content of lipopolysaccharide in the rumen fluid of the HC group was significantly higher than that of the other three groups(P＜0.05),the content of malondialdehyde in the serum of the HC group was significantly higher than that of the LCS group(P＜0.05),the content of reactive oxygen species,protein carbonyl,8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine in the milk of the HC group was sig-nificantly higher than that of the LC and LCS groups(P＜0.05),GSH-Px in HCS group was sig-nificantly higher than that in the other three groups(P＜0.05).After the addition of sweet potato leaf extract,there was an increasing trend in the content of Anabaena phylum at the phylum level.In the joint analysis of genera,rumen fluid LPS showed highly significant negative correlation with Succiniclasticum(P＜0.01)and negative correlation with Prevotella(P＜0.05).Valeric acid was negatively correlated with Prevotella(P＜0.05).The pH value was negatively correlated with Treponema(P＜0.05).Butyric acid was positively correlated with Anaeroplasma(P＜0.05).In conclusion,the addition of sweet potato leaf extract to the diet can increase milk production and al-leviate the state of mammary gland oxidative stress,as well as improving rumen microbial diversi-ty of dairy goats.

Objective To describe the clinical features of patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis(PSC)in China based on a nationwide multicenter patient cohort,and to investigate the risk factors for prognosis.Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted among the patients with a confirmed diagnosis of PSC based on the electronic medical record system of seven grade A tertiary hospitals across the country,and related data were extracted.The Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between groups,and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate liver transplant-free survival,and the log-rank test was used for comparison of survival rate between PSC patients with different features.The Cox regression model was used to identify independent risk factors for the prognosis of PSC patients and the interactions between key factors.Results A total of 107 patients were enrolled,among whom 55.6%(55/99)had large-duct PSC and 29.0%(31/107)had comorbidity with inflammatory bowel disease(IBD).The positivity rate of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody(ANCA)was 32.9%(24/73),and 50.0%(40/80)of the patients had an increase in IgG/IgM.The median symptom-to-diagnosis interval was 1 year(<1-4.0),and 38.3%(41/107)of the patients had progressed to decompensated cirrhosis at the time of diagnosis.The median liver transplant-free survival time was 114 months(95%confidence interval[CI]:62-166),with a 5-year survival rate of 65.7%.The multivariate analysis showed that an increase in total bile acid(TBA)(hazard ratio[HR]=1.006,95%CI:1.002-1.010,P=0.001)and a prolonged symptom-to-diagnosis interval(HR=1.252,95%CI:1.059-1.480,P=0.009)were independent risk factors for prognosis.The interaction analysis showed that compared with the female patients with TBA<50 μmol/L,both male and female patients with TBA≥50 μmol/L had a significant increase in the risk of liver transplantation or death(male:HR=16.563,95%CI:2.103-130.449,P<0.001;female:HR=17.009,95%CI:2.113-136.934,P<0.001),and compared with the patients with an age of<45 years and a TBA level of<50 μmol/L,the patients with an age of≥45 years and a TBA level of≥50 μmol/L had a significant increase in the risk of liver transplantation or death(HR=10.729,95%CI:1.325-86.859,P=0.026).Compared with the female patients with an symptom-to-diagnosis interval of≤2 years,the male patients with a symptom-to-diagnosis interval of>2 years had an increased risk of liver transplantation or death(HR=4.825,95%CI:1.725-13.644,P=0.003),and compared with the patients with an age of<45 years and a symptom-to-diagnosis interval of≤2 years,the patients with an age of<45 years and a symptom-to-diagnosis interval of>2 years had an increased risk of liver transplantation or death(HR=4.983,95%CI:1.366-18.173,P=0.015).Conclusion Compared with the reports from Western countries,large-duct PSC is also the main type of PSC in China,but with a relatively low proportion,and there is also a relatively low proportion of patients with IBD or positive ANCA.An increase in TBA and a prolonged symptom-to-diagnosis interval are independent risk factors for prognosis,with significant interactions with age and sex.This suggests that early screening and intervention should be enhanced to improve prognosis.
