Objective To explore the effect of follow-up management based on the digital information platform on the compliance of early screening and follow-up of liver cancer in patients with chronic liver diseases,and to provide a management method for clinical practice.Methods Convenience sampling was adopted to include 3,959 patients who had chronic liver diseases and visited the outpatient clinic of the Department of Infectious Liver Diseases in our hospital from January 2022 to December 2023.Before the application of the digital information platform for management,it was the medical staff of the Infectious Liver Disease Department who conducted telephone follow-ups and handwritten registrations for patients with chronic liver diseases within one week after their visits.After management,A liver cancer prediction model installed in the digital information platform of the hospital automatically collected data of the patients,including information about the diseases and results of examinations for intelligent risk stratification of liver cancer.The nurses who were in charge of the follow-up performed individualised follow-up reviews based on the levels of risk.Follow-up re-visit rate of the patients in very high-and high-risks were calculated.Scores of chronic disease self-efficacy and medication compliance were compared before and at 3 months after the follow-up management.Results A total of 3,860 patients completed the study.After the follow-up management,the total follow-up re-visit rate of the patients was 88.2%(1,818/2,062)and that of the high-risk patients was 95.3%(246/258)in 2022,while those in 2023 were 94.0%(1,691/1,798)and 98.3%(232/236),respectively.After 3 months of follow-up management,scores for medication compliance and chronic disease self-efficacy showed significant improvement in comparison with those before the implementation of follow-up management(P<0.001).Conclusion The follow-up management based on a digital information platform is suitable for screening of early liver cancer in the patients with chronic liver diseases,as it improves the re-visit rate of patients for follow-up,medication compliance and self-efficacy.

Objective:To investigate the impact of immunosuppressive therapy on the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection and cytokine levels in pediatric patients with kidney diseases.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 40 hospitalized pediatric patients who were diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection at the 900th Hospital of PLA Joint Logistic Support Force from December 2022 to February 2023. Based on their immunosuppressive status prior to SARS-CoV-2 infection, these patients were categorized into immunosuppressive group and non-immunosuppressive group. Independent sample t-tests, Mann-Whitney U tests, and χ2 test were employed to compare the clinical baseline characteristics and laboratory data, the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and the levels of cytokines between the 2 groups. Results:Among the 40 patients, 11 were in the immunosuppressive group (aged 13 (8, 14) years, 9 males and 2 females) and 29 in the non-immunosuppressive group (aged 2 (1, 4) years, 15 males and 14 females). In the immunosuppressive group, 2 were asymptomatic cases, 8 were mild cases, and 1 was moderate case, and there was no severe or critical cases. In the non-immunosuppressive group, 8 were mild cases, 5 were moderate, 15 were severe cases, 1 was critical case, and no asymptomatic cases. The underlying diseases in the immunosuppressive group included nephrotic syndrome (6 cases), IgA vasculitis nephritis (2 cases), lupus nephritis (1 case), post-renal transplantation (1 case), and renal failure (1 case), with a mean total immunosuppression score (TIS) of (3.6±1.4) points. In the non-immunosuppressive group, 2 patients had a history of epilepsy, and the remaining 27 cases had no underlying conditions, all with TIS scores of 0. Compared to the children in the non-immunosuppressive group, those in the immunosuppressive group were more likely to exhibit asymptomatic or mild infection, with lower risks of severe disease, cytokine storm, fever, and cough, but a higher risk of fatigue ( OR=1.22, 2.66, 0.48, 0.12, 0.12, 0.13, 1.22; 95% CI 0.93-1.62, 0.99-7.15, 0.33-0.70, 0.03-0.57, 0.03-0.57, 0.03-0.65, 0.93-1.62; all P<0.05). The levels of cytokine IL-6, interferon-α and interferon-γ in the immunosuppressive group were all lower than those in the non-immunosuppressive group ( Z=2.23, 2.51, 2.92, respectively; all P<0.05). Conclusion:Pediatric patients with kidney diseases receiving appropriate immunosuppressive therapy may mitigate the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection by suppressing the expression of cytokines.

Objective To evaluate the validity and reliability of learning attitude scale among nurses in continuing nursing education in hospital.Methods We designed a nurse learning attitude scale in continuing education on the basis of a learning attitude questionnaire for teacher-training by Jiao Weiting. In July 2015, totally 207 nurses of the Third Hospital of Mianyang who received continuing education in hospital were selected as the research object by cluster sampling method. We investigated their learning attitudes. The reliability of the scale was assessed by Cronbach's α coefficient and test-retest reliability. The validity was assessed by factor analysis and Pearson's correlation.Results The test-retest reliability of the scale were as the following:cogni-tive level (0.82),experience of emotion (0.89),tendency of behavior (0.91),total scale (0.88);Cronbach's α co-efficients were as the following:cognitive level (0.85),experience of emotion (0.94),tendency of behavior (0.83), total scale (0.89). According to the result of Pearson's correlation,the total scale of learning attitude exhibited a positive correlation with cognitive level,experience of emotion and tendency of behavior (P<0.01). Four prin-cipal components were extracted by factor analysis and the constructs of the instrument obtained were consistent with the conceived concept in essence.Conclusions The scale learning attitude could measure the learning attitude of nurses in continuing nursing education with better reliability and validity.

AIM: To study the exciting effects of ethanol extract of capitate phrynium (Phrynium Capitatum Willd) stem and leaf on the uterine smooth muscle of rat,mice,guinea pig and rabbit pretreated by diethylstilbestrol. METHODS: Conventional method was adopted to prepare animal uterine specimens both in vivo and in vitro. Different doses of the extract were given to the specimens and recorded their tensility, frequency and activity of contraction with the help of BL-420 biological experimental system. IC_(50) of the extract was calculated, with oxytocin as standard comparison. RESULTS: 95% ethanol extract and 50% ethanol extract of capitate phrynium and leaf had obviously stimulating action on the uterine smooth muscle of rat, mice, guinea pig and rabbit in a dose-dependent manner in vitro, whichinclude accelerating contraction frequency, raising tension (P<0.05, P<0.01). In addition, 50% ethanol extract also had a significant stimulating action on uterine smooth muscle of rabbit in vivo(P< 0.01). CONCLUSION: Ethanol extracts of capitate phrynium have an effect on rodent uterine. Smooth muscle indicates that clinical application of Chinese practitioner used to treat the dysfunctional uterine bleeding proves to be effective.
