AIM: To prepare radix scutellariae microemulsion gel and investigate its therapeutic effect on chronic eczema based on the previous research of radix scutellariae self microemulsion. METHODS: The gel matrix and humectant were optimized by single factor method and response surface method to obtain the formula and preparation technique of the gel. The Franz diffusion cell method was used to evaluate the transdermal properties of microemulsion and microemulsion gel in vitro. By establishing a chronic eczema model in the mouse ear, the swelling degree, swelling inhibition rate, pathological changes and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin - 6 (IL-6) of radix scutellariae microemulsion gel were measured, to investigate the therapeutic effect on chronic eczema in mice. RESULTS: The physical and chemical properties of radix scutellariae microemulsion gel were stable. Compared with microemulsion, the microemulsion gel had better transdermal performance. The cumulative transdermal amount of baicalein and wogonin, the main components of microemulsion gel, was 1.85 times and 2.77 times of that of microemulsion respectively. Moreover, the steady flow rate and permeability coefficient of microemulsion gel significantly increased, and the lag time significantly shortened. Pharmacodynamic study showed that compared with the model group, the radix scutellariae microemulsion gel could significantly reduce the ear swelling of mice (P<0.05), and the serum inflammatory factor TNF - α, IL-1β and IL-6 reduced content by over 37%. Compared with the radix scutellaria aqueous extract and aqueous extract gel, the treatment of chronic eczema was better. CONCLUSION: The preparation process of radix scutellaria microemulsion gel is feasible, with strong transdermal property, and a significant therapeutic effect on chronic eczema.

Objective:The classification model of prognosis of elderly cancer patients in rural areas of Shaanxi province was constructed based on machine learning algorithm, and its effectiveness was verified, providing reference for early prognosis recognition and intervention treatment.Methods:Using a multicenter, cross-sectional survey method and convenience sampling method, 597 elderly cancer patients in rural areas hospitalized in 9 different medical institutions (Shaanxi Cancer Hospital and its member units of specialty alliance) in Shaanxi Province from July to August 2022 were selected as the research objects, and a variable database of "basic information", "self-care ability", "symptoms", "comprehensive needs" and "quality of life" of elderly cancer patients in rural areas was established. Machine learning and statistical analysis were carried out to explore the important prognostic characteristics of elderly cancer patients in rural areas, and a prognostic classification model for elderly cancer patients in rural areas was constructed and verified.Results:The 597 valid questionnaires were ultimately collected.Among the 597 elderly cancer patients in rural areas, 207 were males and 390 were females, aged (69.56 ± 8.84) years. The results of cluster exploration showed that the prognosis of elderly cancer patients in rural areas was divided into three categories: good, medium and poor. The areas under the working characteristic curves of the subjects in good, medium and poor were 0.84, 0.79 and 0.69, respectively. The results of characteristic exploration showed that 10 indicators of "whether accompanied by metastasis", "distress", "sadness", "numbness", "eating", "walking", "fatigue", "forgetfulness", "fun of life" and "relationship with others" were important characteristic indicators of prognosis evaluation of elderly cancer patients in rural areas. There were statistically significant differences among the 10 important characteristic indicators in the three categories of prognosis of rural elderly cancer patients ( χ2=21.07, H values were 18.51-144.38, all P<0.01). There were statistically significant differences in the three categories of "comprehensive needs", "quality of life", "self-care ability" and "symptoms" ( H values were 519.40, 40.80, 103.69, all P<0.01). Conclusions:The construction and verification of a prognostic classification model for elderly cancer patients in rural areas based on machine learning algorithm can effectively explore the important characteristic indicators and prognostic classification of elderly cancer patients in rural areas, and provide basis and guidance for clinical medical staff to make individualized plans.

Objective To investigate current status in knowledge,attitude and practice(KAP)of transitional care among the nurses in Shaanxi province,identify the influencing factors that hinder the transitional care and carry out training of transitional care for the nurses in different specialties in order to provide a theoretical basis for establishing a transitional care model for discharged patients.Methods A total of 2 288 nurses were selected to participate the survey from 41 hospitals in Shaanxi province by the stratified two-stage random sampling method.A self-designed questionnaire for general information,an obstacle factor scale,and a KAP of transitional care questionnaire were used as the survey instruments.The data acquired from the survey were processed by Cluster analysis to identify potential categories and the influencing factors.Results Totally 2085 nurses finished the study.Total score of KAP of transitional care among the nurses in Shaanxi province was found at(134.96±23.75),which was at a medium level.The scores of knowledge,attitude and practice were 77.24%,80.64%and 76.98%respectively.Cluster analysis showed that all the nurses could be categorised into either a lower scored group(n=1 596,76.5%)or a higher scored group(489,23.5%),with a best potential category number of 2 for the 2 085 nurses who participated the survey.There were statistically significant differences between the groups in terms of care training,telephone follow-up,network platform,outpatient service of nursing experts,family visits,patient club and hospital categories(all P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis on even factors above showed that care training,telephone follow-up,network platform and patient club could significantly affect the potential categorisation of KAP of the nurses in transitional care(all P＜0.05).The main factors that hindered the transitional care included insufficient human resources(93.81%),insufficient supply of community services(93.57%)and lack of a standardised flowchart for transitional care(93.09%).Conclusions Levels of KAP about the transitional care are at a medium level among the nurses of 41 hospitals in Shaanxi province,which indicates that the nurses are active in attitude,but the knowledge and practice are required to be further improved and standardised.The results of cluster analysis indicate that it is necessary for nursing managers to carry out targeted trainings in transitional care for the nurses in different categories.This study provides a theoretical basis to establish a diversified transitional care mode for discharged patients in Shaanxi province.
