Objective To explore the diagnostic value of exhaled volatile organic compounds (VOCs) for cystic fibrosis (CF). Methods A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and SinoMed databases up to August 7, 2024. Studies that met the inclusion criteria were selected for data extraction and quality assessment. The quality of included studies was assessed by the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS), and the risk of bias and applicability of included prediction model studies were assessed by the prediction model risk of bias assessment tool (PROBAST). Results A total of 10 studies were included, among which 5 studies only identified specific exhaled VOCs in CF patients, and another 5 developed 7 CF risk prediction models based on the identification of VOCs in CF. The included studies reported a total of 75 exhaled VOCs, most of which belonged to the categories of acylcarnitines, aldehydes, acids, and esters. Most models (n=6, 85.7%) only included exhaled VOCs as predictive factors, and only one model included factors other than VOCs, including forced expiratory flow at 75% of forced vital capacity (FEF75) and modified Medical Research Council scale for the assessment of dyspnea (mMRC). The accuracy of the models ranged from 77% to 100%, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ranged from 0.771 to 0.988. None of the included studies provided information on the calibration of the models. The results of the Prediction Model Risk of Bias Assessment Tool (PROBAST) showed that the overall bias risk of all predictive model studies was high, and the overall applicability was unclear. Conclusion The exhaled VOCs reported in the included studies showed significant heterogeneity, and more research is needed to explore specific compounds for CF. In addition, risk prediction models based on exhaled VOCs have certain value in the diagnosis of CF, but the overall bias risk is relatively high and needs further optimization from aspects such as model construction and validation.

Objective To investigate the interaction relationship among symptoms in middle-aged patients during the recovery period of stroke and explore its correlation with rehabilitation confidence,providing a reference for the implementation of precise rehabilitation nursing.Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted,and 365 middle-aged patients in the recovery period of stroke who were hospitalized in 4 tertiary general hospitals in Wuhan from April 20 to August 31,2024 were conveniently selected as the subjects of the investigation.Data were collected using the General Information Questionnaire,Stroke Symptom Experience Scale,and Confidence after Stroke Measure Questionnaire.Symptom network analysis was conducted using R software,and a network structure model of symptoms-rehabilitation confidence was constructed;meanwhile,the stability of the network structure was evaluated.Results Finally,350 middle-aged stroke patients in the recovery period were included.The most common symptom was"limb weakness"(81.1％).Symptom network analysis showed that"limited limb movement"was the core symptom(rs=1.118).The symptoms strongly associated with recovery confidence were"limited physical movement","annoyance at not being able to do what you want to do"and"slow reaction times".Stability tests suggest that the model results are all good.Conclusion Symptoms of middle-aged patients in the recovery period after stroke are interrelated,and the mechanisms by which different symptoms affect rehabilitation confidence are also different.It is recommended that healthcare professionals prioritize interventions based on core symptoms and inter-symptom relationships in order to accurately enhance patient outcomes and improve recovery outcomes.

Objective To explore the time-varying characteristics and correlation degree of autonomous rehabili-tation behavior and related symptoms of middle-aged stroke patients,and to provide a basis for clinical transitional nursing and precise rehabilitation.Methods Ecological momentary assessment was used to select 57 middle-aged stroke patients who underwent rehabilitation treatment in the Rehabilitation Medicine Department of a tertiary com-prehensive hospital in Wuhan from March 15 to August 30,2024,using convenience sampling method.Their au-tonomous rehabilitation behavior and related symptoms(fatigue,pain,emotion,sensation)were continuously monitored for 2 weeks.A hierarchical linear model was used to analyze the correlation between behavior and symptoms.Results The autonomous rehabilitation behavior of middle-aged stroke patients showed a fluctuating increasing trend,and the symptom score showed a slow decreasing trend.The hierarchical linear model showed that compared with female patients,male patients have longer duration of autonomous rehabilitation behavior(P＜0.05).The number and duration of autonomous rehabilitation behaviors in patients without fatigue were higher(P＜0.05).The number of autonomous rehabilitation behaviors in patients without pain was higher than that in patients with pain(P＜0.05).The number of autonomous rehabilitation behavior items among patients who perceived more pleasure in rehabilitation was higher than that among patients with greater difficulty in rehabilitation challenges(P＜0.05).Patients with high rehabilitation confidence have higher numbers and duration of autonomous rehabilitation behaviors compared to pa-tients with low rehabilitation confidence(P＜0.05).Conclusion There are significant individual differences and dy-namic changes in the autonomous rehabilitation behavior and related symptoms of middle-aged stroke patients.Nurs-ing staff should accurately implement personalized rehabilitation services during the transition period,enhance pa-tients'autonomy and self-management ability in home-based rehabilitation,in order to improve the overall rehabilita-tion effect.

Objective: To investigate the role of protein demethylase of lysine-specific demethylase 2 A(KDM2 A) in airway inflammation and remodeling in rats with bronchial asthma. Methods: Intraperitoneal injection of chicken ovalbumin(OVA) sensitized aerosol to stimulate the asthma rat model. Eighteen 6-8 weeks old SPF SD female rats were randomly divided into 3 groups, namely the control group, the asthma group for 4 weeks, and the asthma group for 8 weeks. After the success of the asthma model, the infiltration of inflammatory cells in the trachea and perivascular of the lung tissue was observed by HE staining; Goblet cell proliferation and mucus secretion were observed by PAS staining; Masson staining was used to observe the fibrosis of airway wall; The proliferation of airway smooth muscle was observed by fluorescence immunohistochemistry; The protein expression level of KDM2 A was detected by Western blot. Results: The inflammatory scores and inflammatory cell counts of rats in the asthma 4-week group and the asthma 8-week group were higher than those in the control group. There was a statistically significant difference in the above indicators between the asthma two groups(P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the proliferation of goblet cells and mucus secretion in the airway epithelium, the deposition of collagen fibers in the lung tissue and the proliferation of bronchial smooth muscle cells increased in the asthma groups(P<0.01). With the prolonged OVA sensitization time, airway inflammation and airway remodeling changes were more severe in the asthma 8-week group than those in the asthma 4-week group. The results of Western blot showed that the expression of KDM2 A in the lung tissues of the asthmatic 4-week group and the asthmatic 8-week group was higher than that of the control group, and the expression of KDM2 A in the asthma 8-week group was also higher than that of the asthma 4-week group. The differences were statistically significant(P<0.01). The expression of KDM2 A protein in lung tissue of rats in each group was positively correlated with airway inflammation score, total number of inflammatory cells, goblet cell mucus secretion score, lung tissue fibrosis ratio, and airway smooth muscle hyperplasia area(allP<0.01). Conclusion KDM2 A may play an important role in the pathogenesis of airway inflammation and airway remodeling in bronchial asthma.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment effect and prognosis of children with nearly diploid neuroblastoma (NB).Methods:A retrospective analysis of the general clinical characteristics (including age, Gender, risk grouping, location of primary tumor, etc.), laboratory test results, treatment and recent prognosis of NB children with nearly diploidy in bone marrow chromosomes by G-banding technology who admitted to Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2015 to December 2018. Kaplan- Meier method was adopted to calculate survival rate.Univariate analysis was performed using Log- Rank test, and multivariate analysis was conducted with Cox regression model. Results:A total of 43 patients, including 27 males and 16 females, with diagnosis were included, with 14 cases in the hypodiploid group and 29 cases in the hyperdiploid group, and the median age was 35.5 months.The 43 children were all in the high-risk group of International Neuroblastoma Staging System(INSS)-Ⅳ.The primary tumors were mainly located in the retroperitoneal adrenal region (83.7%, 36/43 cases). The largest diameter of the tumors was more than 10 cm (53.5%, 23/43 cases), and often accompanied by 2 or more metastases at the time of consultation.In terms of chromosome karyotype and chromosome karyotype of 14 children in the hypodiploid group was 41-45, the most common karyotype was 45 chromosomes[9 cases(64.3%)]. Among 29 children in the hyperdiploid group of the 47 chromosome karyotypes, 11 cases were common (37.9%). Tumor markers were as follows: neuron enolase (NSE) increased in 41 cases children (95.3%) at first diagnosis, and 25 cases (58.1%)> 370 μg/L; 42 cases (97.7%)had lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). The LDH of children in the hypodiploid group was all> 500 U/L, with 1 case was> 10 000 U/L.Nine cases (20.9%) of MYCN gene were detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Treatment and prognosis: the total course of chemotherapy for 43 patients was 1-12, 19(44.2%) patients received autologous stem cell transplantation, 21 patients (46.5%) received postoperative or autologous radiotherapy or metaiodobenzylguanidine treatment, 28 children developed or relapsed with a median duration of 13.8 months, and 15 cases (34.9%) died.The median follow-up time of the 14 children in the hypodiploid group was 14.9 months (2-38 months), 12 cases progressed or relapsed, and 7 died.The median follow-up of 29 children in the hyperdiploid group was 20.0 months (8.1-51.6 months), with 16 patients progressed or relapsed and 8 cases died. Kaplan- Meier survival analysis illustrated that the 3-year projected event free survival (EFS) rate of 43 children was 18.4%, of which 17.1% were in the hypodiploid group and 29.8% in the hyperdiploid group. Conclusions:Preliminary analysis reveals that children with nearly diploid NB are mostly in the stage Ⅳ high-risk group over the age of 18 months, and 2 or more metastases at the time of consultation.The 3-year estimated EFS of 43 children was 18.4%, and the prognosis was worse in the hypodiploid group.

Objective:To summarize and analyze the results of chromosome karyotype in children with neuroblastoma (NB) with bone marrow metastasis at first diagnosis, and to discuss the clinical significance.Methods:G-banding was applied to the analysis of chromosome karyotype of patients who were regularly treated in the Hematological and Oncology Center in Beijing Children′s Hospital from January 2015 to December 2017, and all the patients were followed up until December 31, 2018.Their clinical features and prognosis were analyzed.Results:(1) There were 120 cases with bone marrow metastasis, including 74 boys and 46 girls, and 98 cases (81.7%) were ≥ 18 months.Among 60 cases with normal chromosome, 56 cases (93.3%) were in International Neuroblastoma Staging System(INSS)-Ⅳ phase, and 4 cases in INSS-Ⅳs phase; there were 2 low-risk (LR) cases, 9 intermediate-risk (MR) cases, and 49 high-risk (HR) cases (81.7%); 7 cases had MYCN gene amplifications.All 60 patients with chromosome abnormalities were in INSS-Ⅳ phase; there was 1 case in MR and 59 cases (98.3%) in HR; 14 cases had MYCN gene amplifications.(2) Among 60 children (50%) with chromosome abnormalities, 4 children had number abnormalities, 14 children had structural abnormalities, and 42 children had both number and structural chromosome abnormalities.Chromosome 21, 10, 11 deletions were the most common in number abnormalities; structural abnormalities involving 11q, 1p, 3p segments had a high incidence.(3) Seventeen cases of children with normal chromosome had tumor progression or recurrence during the 4 to 44-month follow-up period, and 31 cases of children with chromosome abnormalities had tumor progression or recurrence during the 2 to 42-month follow-up period.The 3-year overall survival rate and event-free survival rate of all children were 60.0% and 48.4%, respectively; children in the normal chromosome group had a 3-year overall survival rate of 74.2% and an event-free survival rate of 65.7%; the 3-year overall survival rate and event-free survival rate of children with chromosome abnormalities were 47.5% and 24.9%, respectively.Most children suffering from tumor progression or recurrence had chromosome 10 deletion, and abnormal structure of 11q, 1p, 2p segments. Conclusion:The chromosomal abnormality rate of Nb children's tumor cells is high, but the repetition rate is low, and the individual difference is obvious.The deletion of chromosome 10, abnormal regional structure of 11q, 1p and 2p segments may be poor prognostic factors for NB.Chromosome karyotype analysis of bone marrow samples is feasible, which can provide a basis for more accurate risk stratification and treatment.
