Objective: To explore the potential category patterns of risk prevention and control behaviors of HIV infection among young students who have sex with men (MSM) and their impact on HIV infection and late detection, aiming to optimize intervention strategies. Methods: From September 2017 to December 2024, a total of 1 637 MSM young students in Tianjin were recruited through both online and offline channels. Latent class analysis was applied to classify 11 HIV risk prevention and control behaviors [condom use during the most recent anal sex in the past 6 months, consistent condom use, use of water based lubricants, abstinence from recreational drugs, regular on site professional testing, fixed sexual partners, partner testing, awareness of partner s HIV testing results, testing before sexual activity, nucleic acid testing, and use of pre exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) or post exposure prophylaxis (PEP)]. Multivariate Logistic regression analyzed associations between demographic characteristics/intervention services factors and latent classes. Differences in HIV infection and late detection across behavior patterns were compared. Results: HIV risk prevention and control behaviors among MSM students were classified into three latent classes:condom dependent group (38.42%), low prevention group (27.73%), and comprehensive prevention group (33.85%). Students who received condom promotion/testing services were more likely to belong to the comprehensive prevention group ( OR =5.58), while those who received peer education were less likely to the comprehensive prevention group ( OR =0.43) (both P <0.01). Among the MSM student population, the HIV infection rate was 4.83%, with 2.26% of cases detected late. The HIV infection rate (1.45%) and late detection proportion (0.82%) in the comprehensive prevention group were lower than those in the low prevention group (7.89% and 3.83%, respectively) ( χ 2=16.20, 7.31, both P <0.01). Conclusions HIV risk prevention and control behaviors among MSM young students exhibit significant heterogeneity. Comprehensive prevention strategies can effectively reduce HIV infection and late detection risks. It is necessary to optimize peer education content and improve the accessibility of diversified prevention measures such as PrEP/PEP to enhance HIV prevention and control.

Objective:To estimate the costs of dementia from a societal perspective in Tongliao City and ex-plore the influencing factors of these costs.Methods:Dementia was diagnosed using the 10/66 Dementia Research Group assessment instruments.Data on healthcare utilization,caregiver's care time or costs,and the distress due to caregiving were collected.The cost-proportion conversion method was used to estimate the per capita cost of health services based on data from the National Statistical Yearbook.The human capital approach was used to estimate the unit value of informal care time,and the willingness-to-pay method was used to measure the intangible costs of car-egivers.The total societal costs of dementia were calculated based on the reference year 2023,and a two-part model was employed to analyze the factors influencing the societal costs.Results:A total of 390 dementia patients were di-agnosed,with an average societal cost per capita of 117 877 Yuan.The largest cost component was informal care provided by unpaid family members,accounting for 73.1％of the total societal cost.The societal costs for female patients were 61 395 Yuan higher than those for male patients.Patients with comorbid stroke had a higher societal cost of 63 008 Yuan compared to patients without stroke,and each additional chronic disease added 5 868 Yuan to societal costs.Additionally,each non-memory dimension impairment in the Clinical Dementia Rating Scale in-creased the societal costs by 53 997 Yuan.Conclusion:Dementia poses a significant socio-economic burden,with informal care being the major component of this burden.

There are many treatment options for cancer,and patients need to repeatedly weigh the pros and cons when choosing,consider various health risks and the impact on their families,and are prone to decision-making fatigue,which not only affects their decision-making judgment,but also may affect their physical and mental health.This paper summarizes the concept,theoretical model,and evaluation tools of decision fatigue,and summarizes the influencing factors and coping strategies of decision fatigue in cancer patients,which can provide a reference for domestic medical staff to further develop personalized decision support tools and carry out relevant clinical practice and scientific research.

Objective To investigate the current state of quality management on intravenous therapy in secondary and tertiary hospitals in China.This study aims to provide a reference for the development of relevant policies,promoting the professionalization,standardization,and homogenization of intravenous therapy.Methods By a convenience sampling method,intravenous therapy nursing managers from secondary and tertiary hospitals in 31 provinces,autonomous regions,and municipalities were selected as survey participants in November 2023.A self-designed questionnaire was used for the survey.Results A total of 2 129 questionnaires were collected,of which 1,926 were valid,resulting in a response rate of 90.47％.Among the 1926 hospitals,1 733(89.98％)had established quality evaluation standards for intravenous therapy,and 1 734(90.03％)conducted regular quality inspections for intravenous therapy or peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC)insertion and maintenance.Additionally,1 604 hospitals(83.28％)had established protocols for handling and reporting intravenous therapy or PICC-related complications,and 1 574 hospitals(81.72％)regularly collected and analyzed data related to intravenous therapy or PICC insertion and maintenance.Moreover,371 hospitals(19.26％)had implemented intravenous therapy information management systems.Regarding various types of intravenous therapy documents,the highest rate of document types was informed consent forms,with a compliance rate of over 80.00％,followed by insertion records and catheter maintenance records,respectively.The lowest rate was complication management records,with a compliance rate of less than 50.00％.For catheter maintenance protocols,the highest compliance rate was for maintenance procedures,at over 85.00％,followed by insertion procedures.Except for PICCs,the compliance rate for establishing catheter removal and complication management procedures for other types of catheters was less than 65.00％.In terms of quality management of intravenous therapy,there are significant differences between secondary and tertiary hospitals.Conclusion The quality evaluation standards for intravenous therapy are relatively comprehensive,but the informatization of intravenous therapy quality management is still underdeveloped.Furthermore,there is a need to further standardize the documentation and procedures related to intravenous therapy,and there are differences in the level of intravenous therapy management among hospitals of different levels.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-positive bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-positive bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:A total of 3 163 strains of Gram-positive pathogens were collected from 51 member units，and the top five bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 147，36.3%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=928，29.3%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=369，11.7%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=296，9.4%）and alpha-hemolyticus Streptococci（ n=192，6.1%）. The detection rates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）were 26.4%（303/1 147）and 66.7%（619/928），respectively. No glycopeptide and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci were detected. The sensitivity rates of Staphylococcus aureus to cefpirome，rifampin，compound sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline and tigecycline were all >95.0%. Enterococcus faecium was more prevalent than Enterococcus faecalis. The resistance rates of Enterococcus faecium to vancomycin and teicoplanin were both 0.5%（2/369），and no vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium was detected. The detection rate of MRSA in southern China was significantly lower than that in other regions（ χ2=14.578， P=0.002），while the detection rate of MRCNS in northern China was significantly higher than that in other regions（ χ2=15.195， P=0.002）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in provincial hospitals were higher than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=13.519 and 12.136， P<0.001）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in economically more advanced regions（per capita GDP≥92 059 Yuan in 2022）were higher than those in economically less advanced regions（per capita GDP<92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=9.969 and 7.606， P=0.002和0.006）. Conclusions:Among the Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China， Staphylococci is the most common while the MRSA incidence decreases continuously with time；the detection rate of Enterococcus faecium exceeds that of Enterococcus faecalis. The overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is still at a low level. The composition ratio of Gram-positive pathogens and resistant profiles varies slightly across regions of China，with the prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS being more pronounced in provincial hospitals and areas with a per capita GDP≥92 059 yuan.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between homocysteine (Hcy), ferritin and gestational anemia in advanced age pregnant women, and the effect on adverse pregnancy outcomes.Methods:The clinical data of 344 advanced age pregnant women in Handan City Maternal and Child Health Hospital from March 2021 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The adverse pregnancy outcomes were followed up and recorded. The pregnant women were divided into anemia group (114 cases) and control group (230 cases) according to the diagnostic criteria for anemia. The levels of Hcy and ferritin, etc. were compared between two groups, different degrees of anemia and different pregnancy outcomes. Pearson method was used to analyze the correlation between Hcy, ferritin and hemoglobin. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors of adverse pregnancy outcomes in advanced age pregnant women with gestational anemia.Results:The Hcy in anemia group was significantly higher than that in control group: (31.39 ± 3.34) mol/L vs. (9.28 ± 1.44) mol/L, the ferritin was significantly lower than that in control group: (69.81 ± 5.08) μg/L vs. (96.43 ± 7.52) μg/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Among 114 advanced age pregnant women with gestational anemia, 64 cases were mild anemia (mild anemia group), 35 cases were moderate anemia (moderate anemia group), and 15 cases were severe anemia (severe anemia group). The levels of Hcy in the control group, mild anemia group, moderate anemia group and severe anemia group were gradually increased: (9.28 ± 1.44), (24.79 ± 3.25), (37.63 ± 5.51) and (45.01 ± 7.23) mol/L, the levels of ferritin were gradually decreased: (96.43 ± 7.52), (81.19 ± 5.14), (64.82 ± 4.47) and (32.96 ± 2.01) μg/L, and the difference between pairwise comparisons were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis result showed that Hcy was negatively correlated with hemoglobin ( r = - 0.596, P<0.01), and ferritin was positively correlated with hemoglobin ( r = 0.685, P<0.01). Among 114 advanced age pregnant women with gestational anemia, 35 cases had adverse pregnancy outcomes, and 79 cases had normal pregnancy outcomes. The age, gestational reproductive tract infection rate and Hcy in advanced age pregnant women with adverse pregnancy outcomes were significantly higher than those in advanced age pregnant women with normal pregnancy outcomes: (41.17 ± 3.74) years old vs. (38.25 ± 4.28) years old, 28.57% (10/35) vs. 10.13% (8/79) and (49.56 ± 4.12) mol/L vs. (23.34 ± 2.63) mol/L, the ferritin was significantly lower than that in advanced age pregnant women with normal pregnancy outcomes: (38.36 ± 3.08) μg/L vs. (83.74 ± 6.25) μg/L, and the degree of gestational anemia was more serious than that in advanced age pregnant women with normal pregnancy outcomes, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01 or <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that age, gestational reproductive tract infection, Hcy, ferritin and the degree of gestational anemia were the independent risk factors of adverse pregnancy outcomes in advanced age pregnant women with gestational anemia ( OR = 1.570, 1.758, 1.865, 1.556 and 1.652; 95% CI 1.154 to 2.136, 1.181 to 2.617, 1.223 to 2.842, 1.100 to 2.201 and 1.175 to 2.323; P<0.01). Conclusions:The level of Hcy in advanced age pregnant women with gestational anemia is relatively higher, and the level of ferritin is relatively lower. The ferritin and Hcy levels are risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in advanced age pregnant women with gestational anemia, and may be involved in the occurrence and development of gestational anemia in advanced age pregnant women.

Objective To observe the value of grey-level histogram analysis based on T2WI for differentiating consistency of meningioma.Methods Data of 109 patients with meningioma were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into hard group(n=71)and soft group(n=38)according to the consistency of tumors.Tumor ROI was outlined on axial T2WI showing the largest tumor section,gray levels were extracted and histogram analysis was performed.The value of each histogram parameter were compared between groups.Then receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn,and the area under the curve(AUC)was calculated to evaluate the efficiency for differentiating soft and hard meningioma.Results P1,P10,P50,P90,P99 and the mean grey levels on T2WI in soft group were all higher than those in hard group(all P＜0.05),while the variance,the kurtosis and the skewness were not significantly different between groups(all P＞0.05).The differentiating efficiency of P1,P10,P50,P90,P99 and the mean grey levels on T2WI were all fine,with AUC of 0.774 to 0.833,and no significant difference was found(all P＞0.05).Conclusion Parameters of grey-level histogram analysis such as P1,P10,Ps0,P90,P99 and the mean values based on T2WI were all valuable for differentiating soft and hard meningioma.

Objective To explore the reliability and safety of continuous monitoring of vital signs in patients using wireless wearable monitoring devices after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for lung cancer. Methods The patients undergoing VATS for lung cancer in West China Hospital, Sichuan University from May to August 2023 were prospectively enrolled. Both wireless wearable and traditional wired devices were used to monitor the vital signs of patients after surgery. Spearman correlation analysis, paired sample t test and ratio Bland-Altman method were used to test the correlation, difference and consistency of monitoring data measured by the two devices. The effective monitoring rate of the wireless wearable device within 12 hours was calculated to test the reliability of its continuous monitoring. Results A total of 20 patients were enrolled, including 15 females and 5 males with an average age of 46.20±11.52 years. Data collected by the two monitoring devices were significantly correlated (P<0.001). Respiratory rate and blood oxygen saturation data collected by the two devices showed no statistical difference (P>0.05), while heart rate measured by wireless wearable device was slightly lower (=−0.307±1.073, P<0.001), and the blood pressure (=1.259±5.354, P<0.001) and body temperature(=0.115±0.231, P<0.001) were slightly higher. The mean ratios of heart rate, respiratory rate, blood oxygen saturation, blood pressure and body temperature collected by the two devices were 0.996, 1.004, 1.000, 1.014, and 1.003, respectively. The 95% limits of agreement (LoA) and 95% confidence interval of 95%LoA of each indicator were within the clinically acceptable limit. The effective monitoring rate of each vital signs within 12 hours was above 98%. Conclusion The wireless wearable device has a high accuracy and reliability for continuous monitoring vital signs of patients after VATS for lung cancer, which provides a security guarantee for subsequent large-scale clinical application and further research.

Mitochondria are the main site of energy metabolism in cardiomyocytes， and at the same time mediate apoptosis and immune response， so mitochondrial dysfunction is closely related to the development of heart failure. Combined with the pathogenesis of mitochondrial dysfunction and heart failure， it is proposed that the mitochondrial function is similar to "sweat pore - collaterals - zang and fu organs"， according to which the treatment of heart failure is based on the theory of "sweat pore - collaterals - zang and fu organs". It is believed that the core mechanism of heart failure is qi deficiency， and qi deficiency leads to the weakness of the sweat pore opening and closing， or even the sweat pore closure， then resulting in qi deficiency and blood stasis， collaterals stagnation fail to flourish， and qi， blood， and body fluids can not infiltrate and nourish zang-fu organs， so that the heart fail to be nourished， and the disease will develop. The treatment should be based on the method of boosting qi and opening sweat pore， using acridity to unblock the collaterals， and invigorating blood and draining water， with medicinal of boosting qi， invigorating blood， and draining water as treatment.
