Objective In this research,we constructed a nurse-led intra-abdominal pressure(IAP)management program in children undergoing liver transplantation,and explored its clinical application effect.Methods Based on literature review,semi-structured interviews,and expert meetings,a nurse-led program for IAP management is constructed.By convenience sampling method,162 children admitted to the pediatric liver transplant intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital in Zhejiang Province from January to December 2023 were selected.The experimental group implemented a nurse-led IAP management program,while the control group received routine postoperative care after liver transplantation.The average IAP values during ICU period,incidence and grading of intra-abdominal hypertension(IAH),duration of mechanical ventilation,and length of ICU stay were compared between 2 groups.Results Finally,the IAP management program in children undergoing liver transplantation included 4 first-level items,10 second-level items and 20 third-level items.During the application of this program,4 cases dropped,and 78 cases were finally included in the experimental group and 80 cases in the control group.After the intervention,the IAP value in the experimental group was(8.63±2.40)mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa),lower than(9.23±3.19)mmHg in the control group,but there was no statistically significant difference between the 2 groups(P=0.186).The incidence of IAH in the experimental group was 23.07％,lower than 41.25％in the control group.The difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant(P=0.015).13 cases(16.67％)in the experimental group developed grade Ⅰ IAH,while 22 cases(27.50％)in the control group;5 cases(6.41％)in the experimental group developed grade Ⅱ IAH,while 9 cases(11.25％)in the control group;no cases in the experimental group developed grade Ⅲ IAH,while 2 cases(2.50％)in the control group.There was no statistically significant difference between the 2 groups(P＞0.05).The mechanical ventilation time in the experimental group was 3.00(1.00,13.25)hours,and 7.50(1.00,27.75)hours in the control group.The difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant(P=0.034).The length of ICU stay in the experimental group was 6.00(4.00,8.25)days,and 5.00(3.00,8.00)days hours in the control group.The difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant(P=0.061).Conclusion The nurse-led IAP management program in children undergoing liver transplantation can effectively reduce the incidence of IAH,shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation.

Objective To review the research on the application of clinical decision support system(CDSS)involving nurses in depression both domestically and internationally.Methods 10 Chinese and English databases including PubMed,Web of Science,Scopus,CINAHL,PsycINFO,Embase,Cochrane Library,CNKI,Wanfang Database,and VIP were searched until March,2024.The eligible literature of the application of CDSS involving nurses in depression was selected to analyze the basic characteristics of studies,the functions,characteristics,feasibility,and effectiveness of CDSS.Results Finally,16 English articles involving 13 CDSS were included.This study found that nurses participating in CDSS can improve the degree of depression in patients,but its application in depression management is mainly for screening,and few CDSS can propose personalized depression management programs based on the psychological and social factors of patients.Conclusion The CDSS involving nurses can promote the screening of depression and improve depression in patients,but it fails to propose a personalized depression management program.Future research can develop CDSS based on electronic medical record systems to facilitate nurses'screening for depression and further develop an intelligent management module for CDSS to provide intelligent and personalized management solutions for patients with depression.

Objective To investigate the current status of frailty in liver transplant candidates and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods The convenience sampling method was used to select 150 liver transplant candidates who were hospitalized in the Department of Liver Transplantation of a tertiary hospital in Hangzhou from July 2022 to July 2023.They were investigated by the general patient data,Fried Frailty Phenotype,Barthel Index,Nutrition Risk Screening 2002,General Health Status Scale.Statistical methods including single factor and multifactor analysis were conducted for influencing factors of frailty in liver transplant candidates.Results The pre-frailty and frailty rates in 145 liver transplant candidates were 42.07％and 45.52％,respectively,and only 12.41％were non-frailty.The results of ordered multiple Logistic regression showed that age,total bilirubin,hemoglobin,and general health status were influential factors in the frailty of liver transplant candidates(P＜0.05).Conclusion Liver transplant candidates have a high incidence of frailty.Age,total bilirubin,hemoglobin,and general health status are influential factors in frailty.Nurses should pay attention to the assessment of frailty in liver transplant candidates,and take timely and targeted nursing interventions to prevent or delay the occurrence and development of frailty.

The "pre-disease" theory of traditional Chinese medicine focuses on the dynamic and continuous evolution from health to disease, and emphasizes early identification and intervention in the complex and gradual process of evolution from health to disease. The "pre-disease" theory and complexity science share the same perspective on health and disease from the standpoint of features of the dynamic evolution and holism, i. e., life is considered as a complex system with ongoing dynamic changes, which exhibit the nonlinear features of " homeostasis-destabilization-phase transition-another homeostasis". In this paper, from the perspective of nonlinear dynamics in complexity science, we explain the scientific connotation of the evolution law of "pre-disease"-disease based on the theory of critical slowing down in traditional Chinese medicine. Based on the theory of critical slowing down and the dynamic network biomarker method generated by its development, combined with the macro signs of comprehensive analysis of data gained by four diagnostic method and the micro features including transcriptomics and the microbiomics, this paper proposes to integrate macro and micro multi-hierarchy information to construct a "pre-disease" critical slowing down identification model with the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment, which provides a new perspective and method for the early warning of complex diseases.

Objective To assess the effects of low-dose esketamine on the median effective dose(ED50)of ciprofol for anesthesia induction in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy.Methods Fifty-nine pa-tients underwent elective painless gastrointestinal endoscopy,26 males and 33 females,aged 18-64 years,BMI 18-30 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,were divided into two groups by random number table method:esketamine combined with ciprofol group(group EC,n = 29)and ciprofol group(group C,n = 30).Group EC received intravenous injection of esketamine 0.3 mg/kg and group C received the same amount of normal saline 2 minutes before administration of ciprofol.The initial anesthesia induction dose of ciprofol was 0.4 mg/kg.If a positive reaction occurs during the examination,the next patient will receive an increase dose of propofol 0.04 mg/kg,otherwise will decrease by propofol 0.04 mg/kg.The positive reaction was defined that the patient's BIS can not be decreased to 60 2 minutes after anesthesia induction,or the cough or body movement reaction occur at level 2 or above when entering the mirror.The dosage of ciprofol,recovery time,discharge time,the occurrence of intraoperative and postoperative adverse reactions were recorded.The ED50,95%effective dose(ED95)and 95%confidence interval(CI)of the two groups were calculated by Probit probability regression analysis.Results Compared with group C,the dosage of ciprofol,the incidence of hypotension and frequency of administration of vasoactive drugs during the exami-nation process in group EC were significantly reduced(P＜0.05).The ED50 of ciprofol for anesthesia in-duction in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy in group EC was 0.21 mg/kg(95%CI 0.12-0.25 mg/kg)and the ED95 was 0.32 mg/kg(95%CI 0.26-0.39 mg/kg).The ED50 of ciprofol for anesthesia induction in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy in group C was 0.37 mg/kg(95%CI 0.32-0.40 mg/kg)and the ED95 was 0.48 mg/kg(95%CI 0.43-0.54 mg/kg).The ED50 and ED95 of ciprofol for anesthesia induction in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy in group EC was significantly lower than that in group C(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in other frequency of adverse events between the two groups.Conclusion Esketamine 0.3 mg/kg can reduce the ED50 of ciprofol in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy and reduce the dosage of ciprofol during the examination process,which is safe for painless gastrointestinal endoscopy with stable intraoperative circulation.

Purpose Based on liver lesions,to investigate the feasibility and influencing factors of virtual non-contrast(VNC)replacing true non-contrast(TNC)in tri-phase derived from Revolution CT.Materials and Methods A total of 62 patients who underwent TNC and tri-phase(arterial,venous,and delayed phases)spectral enhanced liver scans were retrospectively enrolled in Zhongda Hospital Affiliated to Southeast University from December 2021 to April 2022.Liver lesions with a diameter of≥5 mm were measured and categorized into Group 1(≤20 Hu)and Group 2(>20 Hu)according to the CT values of TNC,then were respectively further categorized into group a(≤20 Hu across all three phases of enhancement)and group b(>20 Hu in at least one phase of enhancement)based on the degree of enhancement.CT attenuation,maximum diameter and detection rates of lesions were compared between TNC and three-phase VNC groups.Multivariate regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors of the density difference between VNC and TNC.Results A statistically significant difference in the attenuation of lesions was observed among the each groups(χ2/F=14.712,18.603,7.334,all P<0.01).Except for VNCV and VNCD in Group-1a which had no significant difference with TNC(both P>0.05),the attenuation of other VNCs were lower than TNC in category-a and greater than TNC in category-b(all P<0.05).Maximal diameter presented strong correlation and no significant difference in VNCA and VNCV compared to TNC in each group(all P>0.05;all r>0.8 and P<0.001).A significant difference in the detection rate of the lesions was observed among the groups(χ2=47.660,P<0.001),VNCV images displayed the higher detection rate than VNCA and VNCD(all P<0.05).The density difference between VNC and TNC was positively correlated with CT values of the corresponding enhancement phase(r2adjusted=0.209,0.142,0.062,P<0.001).Conclusion Based on Revolution CT,VNCV is the optimal phase to replace TNC and can be mitigated by CT value of the lesions in venous-phase.

Objective To study the effect of Ditan Decoction combined with aripiprazole and olanzapine in the treatment of schizophrenia and its influence on serum inflammatory factors chnage.Methods Seventy-seven patients with schizophrenia meeting the requirements visiting the outpatient department and hospitalized in Dazu District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Dazu District Mental Health Center from July 2021 to March 2023 were selected as the study subjects and divided into the observation group(n=38)and control group(n=39).The control group was treated with aripiprazole and olanzapine,and the observation group was combined with Ditan Decoction on the basis of the control group.After 8 weeks of treatment,the TCM syndrome scores,Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale(PANSS)score,serum inflammatory factors(IL-6,IL-1β,IL-17)levels were compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate was 97.37％in the observation group and 84.65％in the control group,and the difference was statistically signifi-cant(P＜0.05).The TCM syndrome score of each item and total scores after treatment in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05),the PANSS positive symptoms,negative symp-toms,general psychopathology and total scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The IL-17,IL-6 and IL-1β levels after treatment in observation group were lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Ditan Decoction combined with aripiprazole and olanzapine has significant clinical efficacy in the treatment of schizophrenia,which could further reduce the symptom score of the patients and improve the serum inflammatory factors levels.The treatment is highly safe and worthy of clinical recommendation.
