Rheumatoid arthritis （RA） is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by synovitis as its pathological basis. Although current therapeutic drugs can alleviate symptoms， they are often accompanied by a high risk of side effects. In recent years， the use of flavonoids from traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in the treatment of RA has garnered significant attention. Studies have shown that the mechanisms by which flavonoids treat RA include inhibiting the release of pro-inflammatory factors， regulating multiple cellular signaling pathways， alleviating oxidative stress， modulating immune system functions， inhibiting bone destruction， and suppressing angiogenesis. Due to their notable anti-inflammatory， antioxidant， and immunomodulatory activities， flavonoids hold promise as potential therapeutic agents for RA. A substantial number of articles in this field have been published. By reviewing Chinese and international literature and applying bibliometric and visual analysis using CiteSpace， this paper explored research hotspots and frontiers in this field， systematically reviewed the structures and anti-RA mechanisms of TCM flavonoids， provided a theoretical basis for their use in RA treatment and clinical applications， and offered new perspectives and references for the discovery of novel TCM-based anti-RA drugs.

OBJECTIVE To explore the current status,etiological characteristics and risk factors for nosocomial in-fections in the patients who are treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)so as to provide bases for treatment and prevention of nosocomial infections in the ICU patients treated with ECMO.METHODS The clinical data were retrospectively collected from the patients who were treated with ECMO in the ICU of Xinyang Central Hospital from Jan.2021 to Dec.2023.The patients were divided into the infection group and the non-infec-tion group according the status of nosocomial infection during the ECMO treatment period.The constituent ratios of pathogens isolated from the patients with infections were recorded,and multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed for independent risk factors for the ECMO-related nosocomial infections.RESULTS Of 86 patients who were finally enrolled in the study,33(38.37％)had nosocomial infections.Totally 54 strains of pathogens were isolated from the patients with the infections,43(79.63％)of which were gram-negative bacteria,7(12.97％)were gram-positive bacteria,and 4(7.41％)were fungi.There were 36(66.67％)strains of multi-drug-resistant organisms(MDROs)among the 54 strains of pathogens,and 27(81.82％)patients were detected with MDROs.Among the ECMO patients with postoperative nosocomial infections,21(63.64％)cases had pul-monary infections,8(24.24％)cases had bloodstream infection,and 4(12.12％)had urinary system infections.Multivariate logistic analysis showed that the high blood glucose level at the beginning of treatment with ECMO,long duration of ECMO treatment and long time of central venous catheter indwelling were the independent risk factors for the nosocomial infections in the patients treated with ECMO(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION The isolation rate of gram-negative bacteria is relatively high among the pathogens isolated from the ECMO patients with post-operative nosocomial infections,and the drug resistance rates are high.The high blood glucose level,long duration of ECMO supporting treatment and long time of central venous catheter indwelling are the independent risk factors for the nosocomial infections in the patients treated with ECMO.

Objective:To develop a scientific and practical questionnaire for general practice residents, and to conduct multidimensional and comprehensive evaluation of the quality of general practice teaching clinics.Methods:A preliminary draft of the questionnaire items was formulated based on a literature review and in-depth interviews. The Delphi method was employed to conduct two rounds of consultation with 14 experts. Following revisions, a convenience sampling method was used to invite general practice residents from three standardized residency training bases to test the reliability and validity of the questionnaire.Results:The questionnaire consisted of 23 items, covering the three dimensions of preparation, implementation process, and comprehensive evaluation of the teaching clinics. The response rates for the two rounds of the expert consultation were both 100.00%, with expert authority coefficients of 0.89 and 0.90, respectively. The overall Cronbach's α coefficient of the questionnaire was 0.93, and the correlation coefficients between each item score and the total score were all >0.30. Structural validity analysis revealed that three common factors were extracted from the questionnaire, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 77.89%. Conclusions:The General Practice Teaching Clinic Quality Evaluation Questionnaire for Residents developed in this study demonstrates high reliability and validity. The questionnaire provides a scientific basis for the standardized assessment of teaching quality in general practice clinics. By incorporating resident feedback on the teaching process, the questionnaire promotes the development of a teaching clinic quality improvement mechanism focused on residents and plays a significant role in enhancing the teaching capabilities of supervising physicians in clinics.

Schizophrenia is a prevalent mental-behavioral disorder characterized by perceptual disturbances,affective dysregulation,and behavioral abnormalities.In traditional Chinese medicine,it is classified under"manic depressive psychosis"according to its symptomatology.The concepts of"spirit,soul,and inferior spirit"originate from Lingshu·Benshen.Drawing on the concept of"spirit governs the soul and inferior spirit"from Lei Jing,this study explored schizophrenia pathogenesis and treatment from the perspective of the three-level regulation of spirit,soul,and inferior spirit.The core pathogenesis involves failure of spirit to govern as the root cause,disruption of soul homing as the pathodynamic process,and the loss of inferior spirit's somatic functional expression as the manifestation.The pathological locations are the heart,liver,and lungs.Therapeutic strategies are developed according to the pathological transmission pattern"spirit derangement,soul floating,inferior spirit dissipation,"forming a treatment system that emphasizes"calming the heart and tranquillization,restoring its control to solidify the root;suppressing the liver soul and regulating the central mechanism to pacify excess to stop mania;purifying the lungs and calming the inferior spirit to restore its clarity and regulate sensory perception and restore cognition."The treatment emphasizes the synergistic use of"calming the spirit,stabilizing the soul,and soothing the inferior spirit,"and combines acupuncture and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and other treatments to treat both the manifestation and root cause of schizophrenia.Exploring the syndrome differentiation and treatment of schizophrenia from the perspective of spirit,soul,and inferior spirit,aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the treatment of schizophrenia with traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective:To investigate the current status of innovative behavior among male nurses in the Anhui Province, conduct potential profile analysis and explore its influencing factors, providing reference for formulating intervention stratigies to enhance innovative behavior among male nurses.Methods:From January to February 2022, a stratified convenience sampling method was used to select clinical male nurses as the participants from five tertiary and first-class comprehensive hospitals in Anhui Province. A cross-sectional survey was conducted using the general demoraphic questionnaire, Nurse Innovation Behavior Scale, Authentic Leadership Scale, and Psychological Capital Questionnaire. Potential profile analysis was conducted on the innovative behavior characteristics of male nurses, and single factor analysis and Logistic regression analysis were used to test the differences in male nurses' innovative behavior characteristics.Results:Among the 220 male nurses, 107 (48.64%) were under the age of 30, accounting for the largest proportion. The innovative behavior score of participants was (38.83 ± 7.80) points, which could be divided into three categories: low-level silent type (27.3%, 60/220), medium-level conservative type (44.5%, 98/220), and high-level active type (28.2%, 62/220). Compared to the low-level silent type, male nurses with higher levels of perceived authentic leadership were more likely to belong to the medium-level conservative type ( OR = 1.055, 95% CI 1.019 - 1.093, P<0.05) and the high-level active type ( OR = 1.124, 95% CI 1.066 - 1.184, P<0.01). The higher the level of psychological capital, the greater the probability that male nurses belong to the medium-level conservative type ( OR = 1.088, 95% CI 1.050 - 1.128, P<0.01) and the high-level active type ( OR = 1.273, 95% CI 1.196 - 1.355, P<0.01). Conclusions:The innovative behavior of male nurses in Anhui Province was at a medium level and had obvious classification characteristics. Nursing managers should focus on low-level silent type and medium-level conservative type male nurses, and adopt targeted interventions and support based on different category characteristics to improve their innovation behavior capacities in clinical settings.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of myopia progression control over a one-year period for defocus in-corporated multiple segments lenses(DIMS),peripheral defocus modifying(PDM)lenes and single vision spectacle lenses(SVL)in a real-world cohort.Methods A total of 188 cases in the DIMS group,116 cases in the PDM group,and 373 ca-ses in the SVL group,all diagnosed with refractive errors and aged 6-16 years,were enrolled in Department of Ophthal-mology,Fujian Provincial Hospital from July 2019 to June 2022.A 1∶1 propensity score matching(PSM)of covariates was used to balance factors between the groups.The changes in spherical equivalent(SE)and axial length(AL)in each patient before and 1 year after wearing glasses were compared without other interventions.The myopia control effects of different groups were compared through the changes in SE and AL.Results After PSM,92 cases were matched between DIMS group and PDM group,163 cases were matched between DIMS group and SVL group,and 99 cases were matched between PDM group and SVL group.The changes in SE and AL in the DIMS group were less than those in the PDM and SVL groups,with statistically significant differences(all P＜0.05).However,there were no statistically significant differences in the changes in SE and AL between the PDM and SVL groups(all P＞0.05).In the age subgroup analysis,in the younger age group(6～＜13)and the older age group(13～16)the changes in SE and AL in the DIMS group were less than those in the PDM group and SVL group,with statistically significant differences(all P＜0.05).In the younger age group,the changes in SE and AL in the PDM group were less than those in the SVL group,with statistically significant differences(all P＜0.05);while in older age group,there were no statistically significant differences in the changes in SE and AL between the PDM and SVL groups(all P＞0.05).Conclusion The myopia control efficacy of DIMS is superior to that of PDM and SVL.In younger children,the myopia control efficacy of PDM is superior to that of SVL.

Objective:To investigate the influence of filial piety values of adult children caregivers on anticipatory grief in adult children caregivers of postoperative pancreatic cancer patients, and to examine the mediating role of meaning in life.Methods:A total of 282 adult children caregivers of patients who underwent pancreatic cancer surgery at Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province between February 2022 and June 2024 were selected using convenience sampling. Data were collected using the General Information Questionnaire, the Anticipatory Grief Scale (AGS), the Filial Piety Values Scale (FPVS), and the Purpose in Life Test (PIL) .Results:Among the 282 valid respondents, the total scores of AGS, FPVS, and PIL were (103.58±7.69), (65.81±6.20), and (49.08±2.03), respectively. Mediation analysis showed that meaning in life played a mediating role in the relationship between filial piety values and anticipatory grief ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Adult children caregivers of postoperative pancreatic cancer patients exhibited a high level of anticipatory grief. Filial piety values positively predicted anticipatory grief in adult children caregivers. Enhancing caregivers' sense of meaning in life may help buffer the effect of filial piety values on anticipatory grief.
