ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the effect of art therapy on the mental health of older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), based on International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health. MethodsLiterature on art therapy for mental health of MCI older adults was retrieved from databases of CNKI, VIP, Wanfang Data, PubMed, ProQuest and Web of Science, between 2014 and 2024, and selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The quality of the literature was assessed using PEDro scale, and a systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA guideline. ResultsA total of nine researches were included from China, Tanzania, Spain, Malaysia and Singapore, involving 763 individuals with MCI aged 60 or more (average 71.23). The types of art therapy interventions were visual arts therapy (painting, collage, paper-cutting, sculpture and modeling, etc.), expressive arts therapy (encompassing dance and music) and creative arts therapy (narrative creation), 30 to 120 minutes a time (majority of 60 minutes), one to four times a week (majority of two to four times), for six to 36 weeks (majority of six to twelve weeks). Health outcomes predominantly focused on mental health, such as anxiety and depression. ConclusionMost researches support that art therapy is effective on mental health of older adults with MCI, but there are disagreements in some researches, and more researches are needed.

AIM: To explore the mechanism of osthole on elderly spontaneously hypertensive rats. METHODS: 20-month-old spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) and healthy Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats were purchased. SHRs were treated with osthole (i.g.) for 8 weeks. The systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure of rats were monitored. Hematoxylin-eosin staining (H&E), periodic acid-schiff staining (PAS) and Masson staining were used to observe the pathological changes of rat kidney tissues. The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) in rat kidney was detected by ELISA kit. PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway related proteins were detected by western blot. RESULTS: Osthole reduced the systolic and diastolic blood pressure of SHRs, improved the histopathological changes of SHRs kidney, reduced the activity of MDA in SHRs kidney, and increased the activity of SOD and GSH. Osthole reduced the levels of p-PI3K, p-Akt and p-mTOR. CONCLUSION: Osthole reduces the activity of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway and exerts a protective effect on renal oxidative stress injury in aged spontaneously hypertensive rats.

Objective:To analyze the external quality control assessment results of fluoride testing laboratories in endemic disease prevention and control institutions nationwide from 2006 to 2023, investigate the quality control capabilities of these laboratories in various provinces, prefectures, cities, and counties nationwide, and ensure the accuracy and reliability of surveillance data on endemic fluorosis nationwide.Methods:Using retrospective analysis, the external quality control assessment results of all participating fluoride testing laboratories of national endemic disease prevention and control institutions from 2006 to 2023 were summarized and analyzed. The assessment results from 2006 to 2008 were tested for outliers using Grubbs method, homogeneity of variance using Cochran method, excluding the assessment data of unqualified laboratories, calculating the total mean and total standard deviation, Z-score method was used to test the assessment of laboratories, and statistical analysis and judgment were done when the result of │Z│ < 3. The assessment results from 2009 - 2023 were obtained from all laboratories. In 2010, two tests were conducted in the first and second half of the year, and the Z-ratio scores of each laboratory were calculated using robust statistics. When │Z│≤2, the assessment was qualified; when 2 < │Z│ < 3, the assessment was basically qualified; when│Z│≥3, the assessment was unqualified, and the consensus value came from all participating laboratories in the assessment.Results:From the beginning of quality control operation in 2006 to 2023, the number of laboratories participated in external quality control assessments had significantly increased. The number of laboratories participated in water fluoride assessment increased from 30 in 2006 to 1 277 in 2023, and the number of laboratories participated in urine fluoride assessment increased from 29 to 497. The number of laboratories participated in the brick tea fluorine assessment had increased from 43 in 2014 to 193 in 2023. The assessment results showed that when │Z│ < 3, the total qualified rate of fluoride external quality control in fluoride testing laboratories of national endemic disease control institutions was 95.2%, with the lowest being 87.1% (27/31) in 2008 and the highest being 100.0% (394/394) in 2014. When │Z│≤2, the total feedback pass rate was 88.4%, with the lowest being 79.3% (288/363) in the first half of 2010 and the highest being 99.5% (392/394) in 2014. The assessment results showed that when │Z│ < 3, the total pass rate of urine fluoride external quality control in fluoride testing laboratories of national endemic disease control institutions was 98.0%, with the lowest being 86.2% (25/29) in 2006 and 2007, respectively, and the highest being 100.0% (68/68) in 2014. When │Z│≤2, the total qualification rate was 93.7%, with the lowest being 86.5% (64/74) in the second half of 2010 and the highest being 100.0% (68/68) in 2014. The assessment results showed that when│Z│ < 3, the total pass rate of extra-fluoride quality control of brick tea in fluoride testing laboratories of national endemic disease control institutions was 95.4%, with the lowest being 85.0% (164/193) in 2023, and the highest being 100.0% (43/43, 51/51, 79/79) in 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively. When │Z│≤2, the total pass rate was 89.2%, with the lowest being 72.7% (32/44) in 2017 and the highest being 100.0% (43/43) in 2014. From 2009 to 2023, there were a total of 21 provincial-level laboratories that passed the water fluoride detection assessment, including 3 provinces where all prefecture level and county-level laboratories were qualified. The assessment results of urinary fluorine showed that there were 11 qualified provincial-level laboratories and 1 prefecture-level laboratory. From 2014 to 2023, the assessment results of brick-tea fluorine showed that there were 5 provincial-level laboratories that passed the tea fluorine testing assessment and no prefecture-level laboratory.Conclusions:Conclusion: From 2006 to 2023, the number of fluoride testing laboratories participating in external quality control assessment has increased year by year, and most provincial, municipal and county-level laboratories have good fluoride testing capabilities, which can meet the testing needs of endemic disease prevention and monitoring. For some laboratories with problems, targeted rectification should be carried out to improve the quality of detection, in order to provide better technical support for the monitoring of endemic fluorosis areas.

Objective To understand the current status and influencing factors of patient perception for humanistic care in China hospitals,and to provide a basis for developing nursing humanistic care measures and improving the quality of nursing humanistic care services.Methods A total of 30,099 outpatients and inpatients from 107 hospitals in 30 provinces(autonomous regions and municipalities)from July to August 2022 as survey subjects.A general information questionnaire and the Relational Caring Questionnaire-Patient Form were used for a cross-sectional survey,and a single-factor analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of patient relationship care.Results Finally,29 108 valid questionnaires were collected,and the effective questionnaire recovery rate was 96.7％.The patient evaluation of relationship care was(65.72±8.61)points.Single-factor analysis showed that gender,age,marital status,children's situation,education level,occupation,place of residence,average family income,medical insurance type,visiting department,and location of the visiting hospital,and whether or not surgery were influencing factors of patient relationship care(P＜0.05).Conclusion The evaluation score of caregiver-patient relationship care among Chinese hospital patients is above average,but there is still room for improvement in western and rural regions,seriously ill and outpatient patients,low-income and low-medical insurance reimbursement populations,and non-surgical patients.Medical institutions at all levels should optimize and improve nursing humanistic care services based on influencing factors,and further enhance patients'perception of nursing humanistic care.

BackgroundBariatric surgery has emerged as an important tool in the management of obesity. Some patients undergoing bariatric surgery are prone to develop emotional abnormalities and have abnormally elevated concentrations of inflammatory factors level in peripheral blood， whereas current domestic research focusing on the impact of preoperative emotional states and peripheral blood inflammatory factors level on weight loss effect remains limited. ObjectiveTo explore the correlation of preoperative emotional abnormalities with the effectiveness of bariatric surgery in obese patients， and to provide theoretical basis for improving the clinical efficacy of bariatric surgery. MethodsEighty-one obese patients scheduled for bariatric surgery at gastrointestinal surgery Department of West China Hospital， Sichuan University from December 30， 2022 to June 30， 2023 were enrolled and assessed using Hamilton Depression Scale-17 item （HAMD-17） and Hamilton Anxiety Scale （HAMA）. Patients who scored 7 or above on HAMD-17 or HAMA or had a history of previous depression or anxiety diagnoses were classified into emotional abnormality group （n=34）， and samples who scored less than 7 on HAMD-17 and HAMA and were free of history of previous depression and anxiety diagnoses were set as non-emotional abnormality group （n=47）. The data were collected by the self made questionnaire. Patients were subjected to complete the assessment of Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation-Chinese Version （BSI-CV）， Eating Disorder Inventory （EDI） and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index （PSQI）. Laboratory tests including peripheral blood C-reactive protein （CRP） and interleukin-6 （IL-6）. Body weight and height assessed in the early morning after an overnight fasting period were recorded in all participants at 1- and 6-month after surgery through outpatient clinic visits or telephone follow-up. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to examine relationship among body mass index （BMI）， preoperative emotional states and peripheral blood inflammation mediators. ResultsAmong 81 obese patients， 62 completed the study， including 27 cases in emotional abnormality group and 35 cases in non-emotional abnormality group. Emotional abnormality group scored higher on BSI-CV （current）， BSI-CV （worst）， EDI and PSQI， and detected higher levels of CRP and IL-6 compared with non-emotional abnormality group （Z=2.677， 2.975， t=3.573， 4.035， 1.990， 2.799， P<0.05 or 0.01）. For BMI， there was no significant group effect and time×group interaction effect （P>0.05）， but a significant time effect （F=227.740， P<0.01）. Within emotional abnormality group， BMI at the baseline， 1- and 6-month after surgery showed a positive correlation with IL-6 level （r=0.419， 0.510， 0.559， P<0.05 or 0.01）， BMI at 6-month after surgery was positively correlated with HAMD-17 total score （r=0.390， P<0.05）， and ΔBMI% at 6-month after surgery was negatively correlated with HAMD-17 total score （r=-0.421， P<0.05）. Within non-emotional abnormality group， baseline BMI was positively correlated with IL-6 level （r=0.338， P<0.01）. ConclusionThe short-term effect of bariatric surgery may be comparable in obese patients with or without emotional abnormalities， while it cannot be ruled out whether the outcome of bariatric surgery is related to the severity of preoperative depression.

Objective:To investigate syphilis infection and related factors among HIV-infected patients being followed up for more than one year in Zhejiang Province.Methods:Data were collected from the China Disease Control and Prevention Information System, and information such as demographic characteristics, viral load levels, and syphilis serologic test results was collected from HIV-infected persons who were diagnosed with HIV more than 1 year, aged ≥15 years with a current address in Zhejiang Province through December 31, 2022. The logistic regression model analyzed the prevalence of syphilis and the related factors. The SPSS 19.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 33 734 HIV-infected patients, with the prevalence of syphilis was 5.6% (1 879/33 734). Among the syphilis cases, the prevalence of syphilis was 6.4% (1 774/27 934) of males, 7.5% (640/8 543) of 25-34 years old age group, 7.6% (1 025/13 423) of unmarried, 8.3% (1 239/14 862) of homosexual transmission, 6.9% (214/3 080) with a non-local registered residence and 9.6% (602/6 267) with a history of STD before the HIV diagnosis. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that participants who were male (a OR=2.19, 95% CI:1.77-2.72), 25-34 years old age group (a OR=1.80, 95% CI:1.47-2.20), homosexual transmission (a OR=1.67, 95% CI:1.49-1.88), with other provinces registered residence (a OR=1.26, 95% CI:1.09-1.47), and with a history of sexually transmitted disease (STD) before the HIV diagnosis (a OR=1.98, 95% CI:1.78-2.20) were associated with increased risk of syphilis. Being married (a OR=0.79, 95% CI:0.68-0.92) was associated with a decreased risk of syphilis. Conclusions:Syphilis infections were high in HIV-infected patients followed up more than one year in Zhejiang Province. It is recommended that syphilis surveillance and screening frequency should be strengthened among HIV-infected persons with characteristics such as male, homosexual transmission, and STD history.

Objective:To understand the utilization and characteristics of outpatient services for pneumoconiosis patients within two weeks in Chongqing, and analyze the influencing factors, so as to provide reference for relevant policy making.Methods:From October 2020 to October 2022, 1771 pneumoconiosis patients who met the inclusion criteria were selected by multi-stage stratified random cluster sampling. A questionnaire survey was conducted on their basic situation, utilization of outpatient services within two weeks, treatment for pneumoconiosis-related symptoms, and selection of medical service institutions using χ 2-test and logistic regression analysis. Results:All the 1771 pneumoconiosis patients were male, with the average age of (56.1±10.19) years old. In the pneumoconiosis patients were treated in outpatient department within 2 weeks.40.0% (204/510) of aged 41~50 years Rural patients accounted for 87.8% (448/510) ; 65.1% (332/510) of silicosis patients, 37.5% (191/510) of stage II patients, 75.1% (383/510) of patients did not continue to engage in dust work after diagnosis of pneumoconiosis, and 57.1% (291/510) of patients never had work-related injury insurance at work. The outpatient rate within two weeks of pneumoconiosis related assistance and subsistence allowance was 17.6% (90/510) and 12.5% (64/510), respectively. The average self-health score of the patients was (52.9±16.2). 28.2% of the patients had purchased work-related injury insurance; Among the 1204 patients who received the treatment within two weeks, 42.2% were in the outpatient department, 20.7% were in the inpatient department, and 36.9% were self-buyers. There was a significant difference between the different treatment methods of the patients (χ 2=27.53, P<0.05). There was a significant difference in patients from different residence choosing to visit different medical institutions (χ 2=13.97, P<0.05). The stage of pneumoconiosis, presence of complications, presence of work injury insurance, self-health score, and whether he/she has been hospitalized in the past year are the important factors affecting the outpatient treatment of pneumoconiosis patients. Conclusion:The utilization of outpatient service of pneumoconiosis patients is influenced by demographic sociology, social support and disease characteristics. The quality of occupational disease medical service in primary health institutions should be strengthened so that pneumoconiosis patients can get convenient and effective treatment. Establish a more perfect social security support system to reduce the disease burden of pneumoconiosis patients.

Objective To preliminarily analyze the influencing factors of benign thyroid nodule malignant transformation and provide a basis for early intervention of benign thyroid nodule malignant transformation. Methods Selected 158 patients with benign thyroid nodules who visited our hospital from January 2019 to January 2022 for inclusion in the study, and followed up for 3 year to observe whether the nodules had malignant changes. The age, gender and dietary habits were collected. 3 mL of fasting venous blood of subject were collected , and the level of TT3, TT4, FT3, FT4, TSH, TgAb, CEA, thyroglobulin and calcitonin were collected. Results The results of this study suggest that the plasma levels of serum TgAb, TSH, TT4, TT3, FT3, FT4, CEA, thyroglobulin, and calcitonin of subjects were not statistically significant between sexes. The results of univariate analysis showed that compared with non malignant group, the patients in malignant nodule group were younger, the longest diameter of nodule was smaller, TgAb level was higher, TSH level was higher, FT3 level was lower, the proportion of internal calcification was higher, thyroglobulin level was higher, CEA level was higher, calcitonin level was higher, and the proportion of abnormal lipid metabolism and glucose metabolism was also higher, which was statistically significant (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that TgAb positive, internal calcification, increased carcinoembryonic antigen level, dyslipidemia, elevated thyroglobulin level, and abnormal glucose metabolism, elevated calcitonin level were associated with the increased risk of node canceration, and increased total FT3 level was associated with the reduced risk of canceration (P<0.05). Conclusion TgAb positive, internal calcification, increased carcinoembryonic antigen level, small nodule diameter, abnormal blood lipids, elevated thyroglobulin level, low total FT3 level, abnormal glucose metabolism, and elevated calcitonin level are associated with the increased risk of malignant transformation of benign thyroid nodules, which should be paid attention to clinically.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy and practicality of the Jaundice color card (JCard) as a screening tool for neonatal jaundice.Methods:Following the standards for reporting of diagnostic accuracy studies (STARD) statement, a multicenter prospective study was conducted in 9 hospitals in China from October 2019 to September 2021. A total of 845 newborns who were admitted to the hospital or outpatient department for liver function testing due to their own diseases. The inclusion criteria were a gestational age of ≥35 weeks, a birth weight of ≥2 000 g, and an age of ≤28 days. The neonate′s parents used the JCard to measure jaundice at the neonate′s cheek. Within 2 hours of the JCard measurement, transcutaneous bilirubin (TcB) was measured with a JH20-1B device and total serum bilirubin (TSB) was detected. The Pearson′s correlation analysis, Bland-Altman plots and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were used for statistic analysis.Results:Out of the 854 newborns, 445 were male and 409 were female; 46 were born at 35-36 weeks of gestational age and 808 were born at ≥37 weeks of gestational age. Additionally, 432 cases were aged 0-3 days, 236 cases were aged 4-7 days, and 186 cases were aged 8-28 days. The TSB level was (227.4±89.6) μmol/L, with a range of 23.7-717.0 μmol/L. The JCard level was (221.4±77.0) μmol/L and the TcB level was (252.5±76.0) μmol/L. Both the JCard and TcB values showed good correlation ( r=0.77 and 0.80, respectively) and agreements (96.0% (820/854) and 95.2% (813/854) of samples fell within the 95% limits of agreement, respectively) with TSB. The JCard value of 12 had a sensitivity of 0.93 and specificity of 0.75 for identifying a TSB ≥205.2?μmol/L, and a sensitivity of 1.00 and specificity of 0.35 for identifying a TSB ≥342.0?μmol/L. The TcB value of 205.2?μmol/L had a sensitivity of 0.97 and specificity of 0.60 for identifying TSB levels of 205.2 μmol/L, and a sensitivity of 1.00 and specificity of 0.26 for identifying TSB levels of 342.0 μmol/L. The areas under the ROC curve (AUC) of JCard for identifying TSB levels of 153.9, 205.2, 256.5, and 342.0 μmol/L were 0.96, 0.92, 0.83, and 0.83, respectively. The AUC of TcB were 0.94, 0.91, 0.86, and 0.87, respectively. There were both no significant differences between the AUC of JCard and TcB in identifying TSB levels of 153.9 and 205.2 μmol/L (both P>0.05). However, the AUC of JCard were both lower than those of TcB in identifying TSB levels of 256.5 and 342.0 μmol/L (both P<0.05). Conclusions:JCard can be used to classify different levels of bilirubin, but its diagnostic efficacy decreases with increasing bilirubin levels. When TSB level are ≤205.2 μmol/L, its diagnostic efficacy is equivalent to that of the JH20-1B. To prevent the misdiagnosis of severe jaundice, it is recommended that parents use a low JCard score, such as 12, to identify severe hyperbilirubinemia (TSB ≥342.0 μmol/L).
