Objective:To analyze the impact of stressful life events on the social activity participation of middle-aged and elderly adults in China, providing a scientific basis for improving their quality of life.Methods:This study was conducted in January 2024.Data were derived from the China health and retirement longitudinal study (CHARLS) conducted from 2011 to 2020. SPSS 25.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Ordered Logistic regression analysis was employed to explore the association between stressful life events experienced over the past decade and the level of social activity participation, with stratified analysis by age, gender, and place of residence.Results:A total of 10 838 middle-aged and elderly adults were included in this study. The proportions of individuals with no social activity participation, low social activity participation, and high social activity participation were 52.07%(5 643/10 838), 24.21%(2 624/10 838), and 23.72%(2 571/10 838), respectively. After adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics and health-related behaviors, individuals who experienced stressful life events were 15.2% less likely to participate in social activities compared to those who did not ( RR=0.848, 95% CI=0.786-0.915).Stratified analysis revealed that the decrease in the likelihood of social activity participation following stressful life events was significantly greater in urban residents than that in rural residents ( Pinteraction=0.004). Conclusion:Experiencing stressful life events over the past decade may reduce the level of social activity participation among middle-aged and elderly adults. It is recommended to strengthen psychological counseling for this population and encourage active social engagement.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of high-dose ilaprazole combined with amoxicillin for newly diagnosed elderly patients with Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection, and analyze independent risk factors for failure of Hp infection eradication treatment. METHODS Totally 200 cases of newly diagnosed elderly patients with Hp infection in Xinxiang Central Hospital from August 1, 2021 to December 1, 2024 were selected and randomly divided into control group and study group, with 100 cases in each group. The control group was treated with classic quadruple therapy regimen (Amoxicillin capsules+ Clarithromycin tablets+Bismuth potassium citrate tablets+Ilaprazole enteric-coated tablets). The study group was treated with high- dose Ilaprazole enteric-coated tablets+Amoxicillin capsules. All patients were administered medication for 2 weeks. Hp eradication rates in the two groups were compared using intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) analyses. The incidence of adverse reactions in both groups was also recorded. The multiple-factor Logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent risk factors for failure of Hp infection eradication treatment. RESULTS In ITT and PP analyses, there was no significant difference of Hp eradication rates between the two groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in incidence of mild to moderate adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05). BMI ≤18.5 kg/m2, BMI >23.9 kg/m2, rural residence, concomitant diabetes and concomitant heart disease were identified as independent risk factors influencing the failure of Hp infection eradication treatment (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The efficacy and safety of high-dose ilaprazole combined with amoxicillin are comparable to classic quadruple therapy regimen in treating newly diagnosed elderly patients with Hp infection. Independent risk factors influencing the failure of Hp infection eradication treatment include BMI ≤18.5 kg/m2, BMI >23.9 kg/m2, rural residence, concomitant diabetes and concomitant heart disease.

Objective:In order to investigate the status quo of central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) prevention among ICU nurses and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:A total of 245 ICU nurses from Harbin Medical University Affiliated First, Second, and Cancer Hospitals from December 2021 to January 2022 were selected by convenience sampling method. To evaluate the status quo of CLABSI prevention among ICU nurses by using Central Line-associated Bloodstream Infections Prevention Knowledge and Practice Scale, a cross-sectional survey was conducted among ICU nurses by using General Data Questionnaire and ICU Nurse Alarm Fatigue Scale, and the influencing factors of CLABSI prevention were evaluated.Results:The knowledge, attitude, behavior dimensions and alarm fatigue scores of ICU nurses on CLABSI prevention were (13.74 ± 2.87), (50.92 ± 4.10), (85.44 ± 8.52), and (31.35 ± 5.06), respectively. The score of ICU nurses′ alarm fatigue was negatively correlated with the score of knowledge, attitude and behavior dimensions in CLABSI prevention knowledge and practice ( r=-0.360, -0.378, -0.408, all P<0.01). The results of multiple regression analysis showed that alarm fatigue, CLABSI training and first education degree were the main influencing factors of ICU nurses′ knowledge and attitude to CLABSI prevention ( P<0.01). Alarm fatigue, CLABSI training and the highest education degree were the main influencing factors of ICU nurses ′ CLABSI prevention ( P<0.01). Conclusions:ICU nurses′ knowledge and practice of CLABSI prevention were at the middle level. Alarm fatigue, participation in CLABSI training, and educational background (first and highest) are the influencing factors for the prevention of CLABSI among ICU nurses in terms of knowledge, belief, and behavior. The administrators should pay more attention to CLABSI prevention, provide more opportunities and ways to train and examine ICU nurses, strengthen the weak links of CLABSI prevention, and make ICU nurses master the Knowledge System of CLABSI prevention as soon as possible.
