Objective To explore the safety of Yttrium-90 resin microsphere selective internal radiation therapy (⁹⁰Y-SIRT) on malignant liver tumors. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 64 patients with malignant liver tumors who underwent ⁹⁰Y-SIRT from February 2023 to November 2024 at Weifang People’s Hospital. The clinical characteristics of the patients and the occurrence of adverse reactions after treatment were analyzed to assess the safety of ⁹⁰Y-SIRT. Results Among the 64 patients, there were 52 males (81.25%) and 12 females (18.75%); the average age was (56.29±11.08) years. Seven patients (10.94%) had tumors with maximum diameter of less than 5 cm, 38 patients (59.38%) had tumors with maximum diameter of 5-10 cm, and 19 patients (29.68%) had tumors with maximum diameter of greater than 10 cm. There were 47 cases (73.44%) of solitary lesions and 17 cases (26.56%) of multiple lesions; 53 cases (82.81%) were primary liver cancers and 11 cases (17.19%) were metastatic liver cancers. Of the 64 patients, 63 successfully completed the Technetium-99m macroaggregated albumin (^99mTc-MAA) perfusion test and received the ⁹⁰Y-SIRT; one patient received ⁹⁰Y-SIRT after the second ^99mTc-MAA perfusion test due to a work error. The most common adverse reactions included grade 1 alanine aminotransferase (ALT) elevation in 26 cases (40.62%) and grade 2 in 2 cases (9.37%), grade 1 aspartate aminotransferase (AST) elevation in 27 cases (42.18%) and grade 2 in 7 cases (10.93%); grade 1 nausea in 17 cases (26.56%) and grade 2 in 6 cases (9.37%); grade 1 abdominal pain in 12 cases (18.75%), grade 2 in 5 cases (7.81%), and grade 3 in 1 case (1.56%); grade 1 vomiting in 11 cases (17.18%), grade 2 in 5 cases (7.81%), and grade 3 in 1 case (1.56%). Conclusion The adverse reactions of ⁹⁰Y-SIRT for treating malignant liver tumors are mild, indicating good safety.

Ethical reflections on the doctor-patient relationship from the perspective of a better life involve not only the revelation of realistic concerns but also the elucidation of coping approaches， as well as the interpretation of value orientations. Based on the realistic concerns of trust crisis， the ambiguity of responsibilities and powers， and the lack of humanity faced in the construction of the doctor-patient relationship from the perspective of a better life， it is an innovative attempt to eliminate doctor-patient tensions and reshape a reasonable doctor-patient relationship by exploring the path of response in dialogue ethics based on intersubjectivity and effective negotiation， institutional ethics based on normativism and the interweaving of morality and law， and care ethics based on reverence for life and emotional resonance. This practical narrative of responding to and reshaping the doctor-patient relationship in a better life with an ethical approach reveals the values of harmony， justice， and happiness.

Objective:To construct an evaluation indicator system for the efficiency of nursing human resources in integrated medical and elderly care institutions using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and subsequently evaluate its effectiveness.Methods:This cross-sectional survey utilized literature review and investigative methods to initially establish a library of evaluation indicators for nursing human resource efficiency. The Delphi method was employed in two rounds of consultations with 17 experts from various fields, including nursing management, elderly care institution management, integrated medical and elderly care institution management, health economics management, and public health. The reliability of the indicator system was assessed based on factors such as expert enthusiasm, authority, concentration of opinions, and coordination. Adjustments, modifications, and improvements were made to the indicators based on expert opinions to establish the final indicator system. From August to December 2022, the DEA model was applied to evaluate the efficiency of 12 integrated medical and elderly care institutions in Haikou city based on this indicator system.Results:The constructed evaluation indicator system comprised 68 items divided into three levels: 9 primary indicators, 19 secondary indicators, and 40 tertiary indicators. The positive coefficients of the two rounds of expert consultations were 100% and 94.1%, with authority coefficients of 0.88 and 0.92, Kendall harmony coefficients of 0.471 and 0.348, and mean coefficients of variation of 0.16 and 0.12 ( P<0.001). DEA evaluation results for the 12 integrated medical and elderly care institutions showed that 5 were DEA effective institutions with comprehensive efficiency (OE), technical efficiency (TE), and scale efficiency (SE) values all equal to 1.000, while 7 were non-DEA effective institutions, including 4 with SE <1.000 but TE=1.000 and 3 with both SE and TE<1.000. Conclusions:The constructed evaluation indicator system demonstrates high enthusiasm, authority coefficients, and coordination in expert consultations, indicating high acceptability and comprehensive content with distinct levels and strong specialty characteristics. The DEA model′s evaluation results objectively and effectively reflect the efficiency of nursing human resources in integrated medical and elderly care institutions, demonstrating practical utility.

Objective:To analyze the relationship between inflammatory burden index (IBI) and the diagnosis and prognosis of gastric cancer.Methods:A total of 180 patients with gastric cancer admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Medical University from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2021 were selected as the gastric cancer group, 180 cases of gastric precancerous diseases treated in this hospital during the same period were selected as the precancerous disease group, 180 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations in this hospital during the same period were selected as the control group. The value of IBI in the diagnosis of gastric cancer was analyzed. The IBI values of the three groups were compared by one-way analysis of variance, and the optimal cut-off values of different indicators were determined by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve to further evaluate the diagnostic value of IBI for gastric cancer. LASSO regression analysis was performed using the R software package glmnet to screen variables. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis were performed on the screened variables to further determine the independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer.Results:The levels of IBI in gastric cancer, precancerous disease, and control group were 46.69±8.38, 35.53±6.11, and 21.47±4.36, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( F=681.45, P<0.001). Further pairwise comparisons showed that the gastric cancer group was higher than the precancerous disease group and the control group, and the precancerous disease group was higher than the control group, with statistically significant differences ( t=14.43, P<0.001; t=34.15, P<0.001; t=25.13, P<0.001). ROC curve analysis showed that the optimal cut-off value for the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) was 3.15 (AUC=0.65, 95% CI: 0.54-0.73), with a specificity of 92.31% and a sensitivity of 43.97%. The optimal cut-off value for the platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) was 137.36 (AUC=0.59, 95% CI: 0.51-0.68), with a specificity of 93.66% and a sensitivity of 34.98%. The optimal cut-off value for lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) was 5.18 (AUC=0.69, 95% CI: 0.58-0.76), with a specificity of 61.29% and a sensitivity of 73.33%. The optimal cut-off value for panimmune inflammation value (PIV) was 276.57 (AUC=0.73, 95% CI: 0.65-0.78), with a specificity of 78.41% and a sensitivity of 59.77%. The optimal cut-off value for the systemic immune inflammatory index (SII) was 654.37 (AUC=0.73, 95% CI: 0.66-0.78), with a specificity of 86.32% and a sensitivity of 62.11%. The optimal cut-off value for the IBI was 49.12 (AUC=0.82, 95% CI: 0.79-0.92), with a specificity of 85.36% and a sensitivity of 65.82%. LASSO regression analysis showed that there were 8 prognostic variables related to survival, including IBI, T stage, N stage, age, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), SII, PIV, and tumor grade. The results of univariate analysis showed that IBI ( HR=4.57, 95% CI: 3.82-5.32, P<0.001), T stage ( HR=2.54, 95% CI: 1.75-3.31, P<0.001), N stage ( HR=1.69, 95% CI: 1.15-2.21, P=0.032), CEA ( HR=1.38, 95% CI: 1.06-1.75, P=0.032), and tumor grade ( HR=1.87, 95% CI: 1.34-2.59, P=0.026) were prognostic factors for gastric cancer patients. The results of multivariate analysis showed that IBI ( HR=3.96, 95% CI: 3.51-4.48, P<0.001), T stage ( HR=2.31, 95% CI: 1.63-3.02, P=0.023), tumor grade ( HR=1.49, 95% CI: 1.12-1.83, P=0.042) were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of gastric cancer patients. Compared with low-level IBI gastric cancer patients, the risk of death in high-level IBI patients was up to 3.96 times. Conclusion:IBI may be an important marker for diagnosis and prognosis prediction of gastric cancer, which has certain scientific and clinical value in the diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer.

Objective:To analyze circRNAs specifically differentially expressed in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) based on high-throughput sequencing data.Methods:Six patients with pathologically confirmed ESCC in Tangdu Hospital of Air Force Medical University from March 2018 to March 2019 were selected as the research subjects, among which 3 were stage Ⅰ ESCC and 3 were stage Ⅲ ESCC. High-throughput sequencing technology was used to analyze the difference in the expression of circRNA in cancer tissues and adjacent tissues of patients. GO enrichment analysis, KEGG enrichment analysis and Venn analysis were performed on differentially expressed genes. The circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network was constructed using Cytoscape software. The most significantly differentially expressed genes in cancer tissues were verified in cells and tissues, and the relationships between circRNAs and clinical pathological indicators of patients were analyzed.Results:A total of 553 differentially expressed circRNAs were screened in paracancerous tissues and cancer tissues of 3 stage Ⅰ ESCC patients, of which 413 were up-regulated and 140 were down-regulated in cancer tissues; A total of 425 differentially expressed circRNAs were screened in paracancerous tissues and cancer tissues of 3 stage Ⅲ ESCC patients, of which 276 were up-regulated and 149 were down-regulated in cancer tissues. GO enrichment analysis showed that the host genes of differential circRNAs in patients with stage Ⅰ ESCC were mainly enriched in cell cycle-related biological processes such as mitotic G 2/M transition. The host genes of differential circRNAs in patients with stage Ⅲ ESCC were mainly enriched in biological processes related to cell division and tumor development, such as mitotic spindle checkpoint and cell matrix adhesion. KEGG enrichment analysis showed that the differential circRNAs in cancer tissues of stage Ⅰ and stage Ⅲ ESCC patients were mainly enriched in cancer-related biological pathways such as cell adhesion. The results of Venn analysis showed that in stage Ⅰ ESCC patients and stage Ⅲ ESCC patients, 2 and 8 circRNAs that were only specifically expressed in paracancerous tissues and had significant differences were screened out respectively, and were only specifically expressed in cancer tissues with significant differences were 11 and 14 respectively. The circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network showed that the cancer tissue-related circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network in stage Ⅰ ESCC patients consisted of 7 circRNA nodes, 10 miRNA nodes and 28 mRNA nodes, and the cancer tissue-related circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network in stage Ⅲ ESCC patients consisted of 7 circRNA nodes, 9 miRNA nodes and 49 mRNA nodes. The most significantly differentially expressed hsa-circ-0060927 and hsa-circ-0109301 in cancer tissues of patients with stage Ⅰ ESCC and stage Ⅲ ESCC were selected for cytological and histological verification. The results showed that the relative expression levels of hsa-circ-0060927 in ESCC cell lines TE1, TE13, KYSE30, KYSE170, and human normal esophageal epithelial cell line HEEC were 7.82±1.96, 12.69±2.68, 12.78±2.74, 7.53±1.75, and 2.43±0.17, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( F=4.68, P=0.004). The relative expression levels of hsa-circ-0060927 in ESCC cell lines TE1, TE13, KYSE30, and KYSE170 were higher than that in human normal esophageal epithelial cell line HEEC, with statistically significant differences ( P=0.009; P=0.003; P=0.003; P=0.007). The relative expression levels of hsa-circ-0109301 in ESCC cell lines TE1, TE13, KYSE30, KYSE170, and human normal esophageal epithelial cell line HEEC were 5.16±1.32, 6.28±1.57, 4.89±1.13, 8.92±2.12, and 22.56±4.13, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( F=4.31, P=0.022). The relative expression levels of hsa-circ-0109301 in ESCC cell lines TE1, TE13, KYSE30, and KYSE170 were lower than that in human normal esophageal epithelial cell line HEEC, with statistically significant differences ( P=0.027; P=0.015; P=0.024; P=0.008). The expression level of hsa-circ-0060927 in cancer tissues of 13 early ESCC patients was 12.89±2.67, significantly higher than 5.73±1.18 in paracancerous tissue, and there was a statistically significant difference ( t=15.02, P<0.001) ; the expression level of hsa-circ-0109301 in cancer tissues of 19 patients with advanced ESCC was 7.78±2.17, significantly lower than 16.32±3.15 in paracancerous tissue, and there was a statistically significant difference ( t=9.73, P<0.001). The expression of hsa-circ-0109301 was related to the degree of tumor differentiation in advanced ESCC patients ( P=0.023) . Conclusion:One circRNA (hsa-circ-0060927 and hsa-circ-0109301) with the most significanty differential expression is selected in early and advanced ESCC patients respectively, in which hsa-circ-0060927 is highly expressed in ESCC cancer tissues and hsa-circ-0109301 is lowly expressed in ESCC cancer tissues, and the expression of hsa-circ-0109301 is correlated with the degree of tumor differentiation.

Objective:To evaluate the value of dual-layer spectral detector CT (DLSDCT) in precise radiotherapy for central lung cancer (CLC) complicated with atelectasis.Methods:Clinical and imaging data (including DLSDCT, PET-CT, and radiotherapy simulation CT images) of 26 patients with pathologically confirmed CLC accompanied by atelectasis from the Third Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University and Shandong Cancer Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. There were 21 males and 5 females, aged 36-82 years. Two physicians assessed CLC identifiability on DLSDCT, PET-CT, and simulation localization CT images, respectively, and outlined the gross tumor volume (GTV) and measured GTV values (GTV DLSDCT, GTV PET-CT, GTV CT). Paired-sample Friedman test was used to compare the differences in GTV of the three images, and the SNK test with Bonferroni correction was used for a two-way comparison. The intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to compare the agreement of measured GTV between 2 physicians. Results:The differentiation rates on PET-CT, DLSDCT, and simulation CT images were 100% (26/26), 80.77% (21/26), and 11.54% (3/26), respectively. The differentiation rate of CLC on DLSDCT images was significantly higher than that on simulation CT images (χ 2=16.06, P<0.001). GTV CT, GTV PET-CT, and GTV DLSDCT measured on simulation localization CT images, PET-CT images, and DLSDCT images were 58.75 (22.57, 86.17) cm 3, 47.34 (18.13, 69.25) cm 3, and 51.40 (18.87, 71.31) cm 3, respectively, with statistically significant differences (χ 2=44.99, P<0.001). Both GTV DLSDCT and GTV PET-CT were significantly smaller than GTV CT (χ 2=4.23, 6.59, Bonferroni corrected P<0.001), and there was no significant difference between GTV DLSDCT and GTV PET-CT (χ 2=2.36, Bonferroni corrected P=0.055). The agreement between the two physicians was good for GTV values measured on both DLSDCT and PET-CT (ICC=0.86, 0.89). Conclusions:On DLSDCT images, most CLC and atelectasis can be identified. Compared to simulation localization CT, the tumor target areas outlined on DLSDCT are closer to PET-CT, and the tumor volumes outlined by different physicians are more consistent.

Objective To explore the predictive effect of serum Stromal cell-derived factor 1(SDF-1)and C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4(CXCR4)on early hematoma enlargement in hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage(HICH).Methods The clinical data of 79 patients with HICH in our hospital from January 2020 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the results of head CT reexamination after admission,the patients were divided into hematoma enlargement group and hematoma non enlargement group.The hematoma location of the first head CT examination,hematoma shape,systolic blood pressure level after admission,hematoma density uniformity,admission GCS score and serum SDF-1 and CXCR4 were compared between the two groups.Receiver operator characteristic curve(ROC)was used to evaluate the predictive value of SDF-1 and CXCR4.Results Among 79 patients with HICH,21 patients had increased bleeding.Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in hematoma shape,admission GCS score,systolic blood pressure and hematoma density between the two groups(all P＜0.05).Logistic multivariate analysis showed that SDF-1 and CXCR4 were independent risk factors for hematoma enlargement in early stage of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage(respectively OR:1.460,1.362,respectively 95％CI:1.056～2.018,1.200～1.547,all P＜0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that AUC of SDF-1 was 0.868(95％CI:0.688-1.000,P＜0.005),specificity was 0.875,sensitivity was 0.778.The AUC of CXCR4 was 0.758(95％CI:0.557-0.948,P＜0.05),the specificity was 0.750,and the sensitivity was 0.733.Conclusion The expression of SDF-1 and CXCR4 in patients with HICH is significantly increased,which is related to the early hematoma enlargement.SDF-1 and CXCR4 have high sensitivity and specificity in predicting the early hematoma enlargement in HICH.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics, examination results, treatment and prognosis of neonates with influenza virus infection in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).Methods:Clinical data of neonates with influenza virus infection who were hospitalized in the NICU of the General Hospital of Southern Theater Command of Chinese People′s Liberation Army from January 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:A total of 11 hospitalized neonates with influenza virus infection in the NICU were recruited, including 2 cases of influenza A and 9 cases of influenza B. Ten cases (90.9%) had respiratory symptoms, and among them, there were 8 cases with increased oxygen demand, 7 cases with complicated pneumonia, 4 cases with dyspnea, and 2 cases with apnea.Seven cases showed abnormal body temperature, including 6 cases of fever, and 1 case of hypothermia.Five cases had circulatory system symptoms.Digestive system symptoms and urinary system symptoms were detected in 5 cases and 3 cases, respectively.Eight cases complicated with systemic symptoms, including 3 cases of poor mental response, 3 cases of worsening jaundice, 3 cases of weight loss, 2 cases of hyperglycemia, 1 case of edema and sclerosis.Ten cases were treated with gamma globulin immunotherapy, 2 cases were treated with plasma immune support, and 1 case was treated with Peramivir antiviral.Eight cases were treated with increased oxygen therapy, among which non-invasive ventilator parameters or modes increased in 4 cases, and nasal cannula oxygen concentration increased in 2 cases.The change of noninvasive-assisted ventilation to invasive-assisted ventilation occurred in 1 case, and 1 case developed the change of nasal cannula to noninvasive-assisted ventilation.Four neonates received anti-shock and (or) myocardial contractility therapy.Conclusions:Neonates with influenza virus infection in the NICU are mainly manifested as respiratory symptoms and fever, and the incidence of complicated pneumonia is high.Multiple systems may be involved at the same time, often leading to severe disease status.Comprehensive supportive treatment is necessary.Neonatologists should pay attention to these symptoms, and early detection of influenza virus and timely isolation are the key methods to prevent influenza outbreaks in NICU.

Objective:To explore the clinical application and long-term safety of hydroxychloroquine sulfate (HCQ) in the treatment of rheumatic diseases.Methods:A multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted between August 2017 and August 2018 in a random sample of eleven medical institutions of rheumatology and immunology in China. Patients who took HCQ for more than 3 months were enrolled into this study. The cumulative dose and long-term side effects of HCQ were recorded. The changes of laboratory indexes before and after treatment with HCQ were analyzed. Categorical variables were presented with counts and proportions, and evaluated by Chi-square test. Continuous parametric data were presented as Mean±standard deviation, and evaluated by Student's t test or Mann-Whitney U test. P-values less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results:A total of 886 patients with rheumatic diseases were enrolled into this study, including 505 cases with systemic lupus erythematosus (57.0%), 210 cases with rheumatoid arthritis (23.7%), 80 cases with Sj?gren's syndrome (9.0%), 57 cases with undifferentiated connective tissue disease (6.4%), 12 cases of systemic vasculitis (1.4%), 10 cases of mixed connective tissue disease (1.1%), 7 cases of myositis (0.8%) and 5 cases with systemic sclerosis (0.6%). The most common long-term side effects of HCQ was skin or mucous lesions (12.4%) and vision problems (8.0%). Other adverse reactions included problems of digestive system (3.0%), nervous system (2.1%), musculoskeletal system (1.1%) and cardiovascular system (0.9%). 140 cases (15.8%) had stopped taking HCQ during the treatment. More than half of them decided to stop taking medicine by themselves. Fifty-four patients (6.1%) stopped using HCQ due to side effects while 24 of them took it again, and another 12 patients (1.4%) stopped the drug due to remission of illness. Patients were divided into three groups according to the cumulative dose of HCQ: less than 500 g, 500-1 000 g and more than 1 000 g respectively. There was significant difference in the incidence of long-term side effects among the three groups ( χ2=6.382, P=0.041). The last group (more than 1 000 g) suffered the highest incidence of long-term adverse reactions (37.1%). No severe adverse drug reactions were observed in this study. Conclusion:Hydroxychloroquine is widely used in the treatment of rheumatic diseases. The incidence of long-term side effects is 20.4%, is 6.1% lead to drug withdrawal, which are especially related to the cumulative doses. It should be adjusted properly according to the clinical application.
