Humanistic caring for patients in the operating room refers to providing the whole process of caring medical services for patients in the operating room. In order to standardize humanistic caring services for patients in the operating room of medical institutions, improve the comprehensive service level of the operating room, and enhance the surgical experience of patients, the Chinese Association for Life Care released the group standard " Humanistic Caring Management Standards for Patients in the Operating Room" in December 2023. This article interpreted the basic requirements for humanistic caring of patients in the operating room, the environment and facilities for humanistic caring, the procedures and measures for humanistic caring, and the quality management framework, aiming to assist administrators and clinical practitioners across various levels of medical institutions in accurately understanding and effectively implementing the standard, and to provide essential textual reference and practical guidance for promoting the application of the standard.

Objective:To develop a treatment-related quality of life scale for Chinese patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and to test its reliability and validity.Methods:The initial scale was constructed through a literature search, Delphi expert correspondence, and cognitive testing. This study conducted a preliminary survey of 379 patients with MM and a formal survey of 865 patients from the hematology departments of 155 hospitals nationwide from February 2024 to March 2024. The final scale was obtained after conducting item analysis and reliability and validity tests on the initial scale.Results:The constructed scale contains 36 items covering six domains: physiological, psychological, social, treatment side effects, general health, and others. In the preliminary survey, the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of each item ranged from 0.597 to 0.939, and the test-retest reliability was 0.747 ( P<0.001). Exploratory factor analysis extracted eight common factors with a cumulative variance contribution of 60.058%. In the formal survey, the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of each item ranged from 0.484 to 0.930, and the test-retest reliability was 0.835 ( P<0.001). Confirmatory factor analysis revealed a comparative fit index of 0.750, a root-mean-square error of approximation of 0.090, and a root-mean-square residual of 0.067. Conclusion:The treatment-related quality of life scale for Chinese patients with MM designed in this study exhibited good reliability and validity, reflecting the impact of treatment on the quality of life of patients. This scale can provide a reference to clinicians for assessing the disease status of patients.

ObjectiveThe controllability changes of structural brain network were explored based on the control and brain network theory in young smokers, this may reveal that the controllability indicators can serve as a powerful factor to predict the sleep status in young smokers. MethodsFifty young smokers and 51 healthy controls from Inner Mongolia University of Science and Technology were enrolled. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was used to construct structural brain network based on fractional anisotropy (FA) weight matrix. According to the control and brain network theory, the average controllability and the modal controllability were calculated. Two-sample t-test was used to compare the differences between the groups and Pearson correlation analysis to examine the correlation between significant average controllability and modal controllability with Fagerström Test of Nicotine Dependence (FTND) in young smokers. The nodes with the controllability score in the top 10% were selected as the super-controllers. Finally, we used BP neural network to predict the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) in young smokers. ResultsThe average controllability of dorsolateral superior frontal gyrus, supplementary motor area, lenticular nucleus putamen, and lenticular nucleus pallidum, and the modal controllability of orbital inferior frontal gyrus, supplementary motor area, gyrus rectus, and posterior cingulate gyrus in the young smokers’ group, were all significantly different from those of the healthy controls group (P<0.05). The average controllability of the right supplementary motor area (SMA.R) in the young smokers group was positively correlated with FTND (r=0.393 0, P=0.004 8), while modal controllability was negatively correlated with FTND (r=-0.330 1, P=0.019 2). ConclusionThe controllability of structural brain network in young smokers is abnormal. which may serve as an indicator to predict sleep condition. It may provide the imaging evidence for evaluating the cognitive function impairment in young smokers.

Aim To investigate the protective effect of Siwu decoction(SWD)on immune injury induced by 60Coγ-rays in mice and the related mechanism.Meth-ods C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into six groups:Control group(Control),Model group(Mod-el),Siwu decoction low-dose group(SWD-L),Siwu decoction medium-dose group(SWD-M),Siwu decoc-tion high-dose group(SWD-H)and resveratrol positive group(Resveratrol,Res).The drug was continued to be administered 11 days before and after irradiation,with a single whole-body irradiation of 4 Gy,and all in-dexes were detected three days after irradiation.The changes of peripheral blood and organ indexes were de-tected.Serum levels of cytokine interferon gamma(IFN-γ),interleukin-1 β(IL-1 β),IL-2,IL-4,IL-6,IL-10,IL-17,transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β),tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α,and immunoglobulin A(IgA),IgG,IgM,and complement protein 3(C3),C4 content were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).B lymphocytes,T lymphocytes,NK cells in spleen and T lymphocytes in thymus were de-tected by flow cytometry.The pathological changes of spleen and thymus were analyzed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining.The expression of Sirt 1 protein in spleen after radiation was detected by immunofluores-cence staining.The protein contents of Sirt1,PI3K,Akt,p-Akt and mTOR in spleen were detected by Western blot assay.Results SWD could significantly increase LYMPH％and reduce pathological injury of spleen and thymus.Flow cytometry showed that SWD could significantly increase the percentage of CD19+B lymphocytes in spleen,decrease the percentage of NK lymphocytes and the ratio of CD4+/CD8+in spleen and thymus.ELISA results showed that SWD signifi-cantly inhibited the expression of IL-1 β,IL-2,IL-6,IL-17,IFN-γ,TGF-β,TNF-α,and increased the content of anti-inflammatory factors IL-4 and IL-10.At the same time,SWD significantly inhibited the increase of IgA,IgG,IgM,C3 and C4 induced by radiation.The results of immunofluorescence staining and Western blot showed that SWD could decrease the expression of PI3K,Akt,p-Akt and mTOR protein,and enhance the expression of Sirt1 protein.Conclusions SWD has obvious preventive effect on immune damage induced by 60Co gamma radiation in mice.The mechanism may be related to Sirt1-PI3K-Akt-mTOR.

Objective To systematically evaluate the safety and efficacy of replacing tyrosine kinase inhibitors(TKIs)with similar drugs after they cause liver injury,based on case reports and case series studies.Methods PubMed,Embase,Cochrane,Web of Science,CNKI,Wanfang,and VIP databases were searched up to October 2023.Two reviewers independently screened the literature,extracted data,and assessed the quality of the studies.Descriptive and statistical analyses were performed.Results Twenty-six studies(22 case reports and 4 case series)were included,involving 75 patients who switched to similar drugs for TKI-induced liver injury,primarily targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR),anaplastic lymphoma kinase(ALK),and multiple targets.The results indicate that majority of patients have favorable safety profiles after switching drugs,with normal liver function or no severe liver injury.Only one patient reported a serious liver adverse reaction,characterized by(grade 3 total bilirubin elevation).In terms of clinical efficacy,most patients responded well to the new TKIs,maintaining stable disease,or showing no progression during follow-up.Disease progression occurred in only two patients who switched from gefitinib to erlotinib after dose reduction due to non-hepatic adverse effects.Additionally,one patient who switched from erlotinib to afatinib experienced worsening tumor symptoms.Conclusion Evidence from published case reports and case series suggests that continuing treatment with similar drugs after TKI-induced liver injury,targeting EGFR,ALK,and multiple targets,demonstrates a certain degree of safety,efficacy,and clinical practicability.This can be a strategy after TKI discontinuation due to liver injury.However,there are no clear guidelines on drug selection,timing,and dosage,and further research is urgently needed.

Objective To understand the epidemiological characteristics and trends of postoperative pneumonia(POP)in tertiary general hospitals in Jiangsu Province,and provide theoretical basis for carrying out targeted pre-vention and control measures.Methods Surgery patients from 22 tertiary general hospitals in 12 cities in north,central,and south of Jiangsu Province from January 1,2022 to December 31,2023 were chosen as studied subjects,occurrence of POP was analyzed and compared.Results A total of 848 274 surgical procedures were performed in 22 hospitals,and 3 606 cases of POP occurred,with an incidence of 0.43％.The incidence in 2023 was 0.37％,which was lower than that in 2022(0.49％),with statistically significant difference(P＜0.001).The top three de-partments with high incidence of POP were neurosurgery(6.71％),cardiothoracic surgery(2.91％),and general surgery(0.77％).Among hospitals of different grades,the incidence of POP in tertiary first-class hospitals was 0.44％,which was higher than that in other tertiary hospitals(0.37％).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of POP between municipal and district/county hospitals(P＞0.05).The incidence of POP in hospitals with a bed:infection control full-time staff ratio＜200∶1 was lower than that in hospitals with the ratio ≥200∶1(0.39％vs 0.47％,P＜0.001),while the incidence of POP in hospitals with a proportion ≥30％of full-time staff being doctors was higher than that in hospitals with a proportion＜30％(0.45％vs 0.36％,P＜0.001).The incidence of POP in male patients was higher than that in female patients(0.62％vs 0.26％,P＜0.001).The incidence of POP in elderly patients aged≥65 was higher than that in patients aged＜65(0.73％vs 0.26％,P＜0.001).A total of 2 667 strains of infectious pathogens were detected,with the top three being Acine-tobacter baumannii,Klebsiella pneumoniae,and Pseudomonas aeruginosa,accounting for 28.95％,22.72％,and 15.45％,respectively.The detection rates of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB),carba-penem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP),and carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPA)were 60.75％,21.45％,and 32.28％,respectively.The detection rate of CRKP decreased in 2023 compared with 2022,with statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).Conclusion The overall incidence of POP in tertiary general hos-pitals in Jiangsu Province is relatively low,but there are significant differences among different hospitals.There-fore,perioperative prevention and control measures should be carried out based on the epidemiological characteristics of patients.

To understand the epidemiological and clinical features of patients with non-tuberculous mycobacteria(NTM)lung disease in a hospital for infectious diseases in Xinjiang,and to provide basis for prevention and control of NTM in Xinjiang.The strain distribution,epidemiological features and clinical features of 78 patients with NTM lung disease in the Sixth People′s Hospital of Xinji-ang Uygur Autonomous Region were analysed from June 2021 to June 2024,and a comparative analysis of the clinical features of 156 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in this hospital during the same period was performed.Among 78 patients with NTM lung disease,the bacteria identified by molecular biology accounted for the top three cases:24 cases of Mycobacterium avium intracellulare complex,16 cases of Mycobacterium Kansaii and 11 cases of Mycobacterium Gordonae.There was no statistically significant difference in gender(χ2=0.009),age(χ2=2.670),smoking history(χ2=0.064),and BMI(χ2=0.896)between the NTM lung disease group and the pulmonary tuberculosis group(P>0.05).However,there were statistically significant differences in the combined bronchiectasis(χ2=19.068),immune-related indicators CD4(Z=-3.498)and CD3(Z=-3.187),and chest CT cavities on imaging(χ2=9.308)be-tween the two groups(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in clinical symptoms such as cough(χ2=0.188)and expectoration(χ2=0.044)between the two groups(P>0.05).The common underlying diseases of NTM lung disease were diabetes mellitus(23.08%),hypertension(21.79%),bronchiectasis(20.51%)and others.The common clinical symptoms of NTM lung disease include cough,sputum,fatigue,poor appetite and others.The common manifestations of chest CT in NTM lung disease were Patchy cord shadows(62.82%),nodule(51.28%),pleural thickening(46.15%),calcification(41.03%)and others.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that bronchiectasis(OR=8.019)is risk factor for NTM lung disease.The dominant strains of NTM in this study were My-cobacterium avium intracellulare complex,Mycobacterium kansasii and Mycobacterium Gordonae.NTM lung disease and pulmonarytuber-culosis have similar clinical manifestations and are difficult to distinguish,especially for patients with bronchiectasis,it is necessary to actively investigate NTM lung disease,provide basis for early diagnosis and treatment of NTM lung disease,and gradually form a system-atic and standardized NTM lung disease diagnosis and treatment system according to local conditions.

Mitophagy is a specific type of autophagy that selectively eliminates damaged mitochondria to maintain mitochondrial activity and cellular homeostasis.In recent years,regulating mitophagy to preserve normal cellular functions has gradually become an important preventive and therapeutic strategy for many diseases.Macrophages are key participants in the formation of atherosclerosis(AS)plaques.Studies have shown that mitophagy may be involved in the development of AS by regulating macrophage homeostasis and physiological functions.This review summarizes the mechanisms by which mitophagy regulates macrophage lipid metabolism,inflammation,senescence,apoptosis and pyroptosis in AS,aiming to provide a new theoretical basis for mitophagy-mediated regulation in AS.

Objective To evaluate the influencing factors of aspiration in neurological critically ill patients by Meta-analysis.Methods PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,CNKI,and Wanfang Data were searched from inception to 1 October,2023,to obtain relevant studies on influencing fac-tors of aspiration in neurological critically ill patients.The literature screening,data extraction and quality evaluation were completed by two researchers.RevMan 5.4 and Stata 13.0 software were ap-plied for pooled Meta-analysisand assessed publication bias,respectively.Results A total of 8 arti-cles,including 1,315 neurocritical care patients,were included in this study.Nine influencing factors related to aspiration were extracted for Meta-analysis.The Meta-analysis results showed that the three influencing factors that caused aspiration in neurocritical care patients were stroke history(OR=5.03,95％CI,2.71 to 9.32,P＜0.000 01),National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score＞10(OR=3.35,95％CI,1.75 to 6.42,P=0.000 3),and gastric residual volume＞150mL(OR=7.13,95％CI,2.55 to 9.96,P=0.001).Conclusion This study provides a scientific basis for clinical healthcare professionals to early identify high-risk patients for aspiration,take targeted inter-vention measures,and prevent the occurrence of aspiration.
