OBJECTIVE: To investigate short-term effectiveness of arthroscopic repair via modified subacromial viewing portal (hereinafter referred to as modified viewing portal) in treatment of LafosseⅠsubscapularis tendon tears. METHODS: A clinical data of 52 patients with LafosseⅠsubscapularis tendon tears, who underwent the arthroscopic repair via modified viewing portal between October 2020 and November 2022 and met the selective criteria, was retrospectively analyzed. There were 15 males and 37 females with an average age of 63.4 years (range, 41-76 years). Twelve patients had trauma history and the other 40 patients had no obvious inducement. The main clinical symptom was shoulder pain and the hug resistance tests were positive in all patients. The interval between symptom onset and admission ranged from 3 to 26 months (mean, 7.2 months). The shoulder pain and function were evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS) score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, and University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) score before operation and at 12 months after operation. The shoulder range of motion (ROM) of forward flexion, abduction, and external rotation and the internal rotation strength were measured before operation and at 3 and 12 months after operation. MRI was performed at 3-6 months after operation to assess the tendon healing and the structural integrity and tension of reattached tendon. Patient's satisfactions were calculated at last follow-up. RESULTS: All incisions healed by first intention, no complication such as incision infection or nerve injury occurred. All patients were followed up 12-37 months (mean, 18.5 months). The VAS, UCLA, and ASES scores at 12 months after operation significantly improved when compared with those before operation ( P<0.05). The ROMs of abduction and forward flexion and the internal rotation strength at 3 and 12 months significantly improved when compared with those before operation ( P<0.05); and the ROMs at 12 months significantly improved compared to that at 3 months ( P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference ( P>0.05) in the ROM of external rotation at 3 months compared to that before operation; but the ROM at 12 months significantly improved compared to that before operation and at 3 months after operation ( P<0.05). Thirty-one patients underwent MRI at 3-6 months, of which 28 patients possessed intact structural integrity, good tendon tension and tendon healing; 3 patients underwent tendon re-tear. At last follow-up, 41 patients (78.8%) were very satisfied with the effectiveness, 7 were satisfied (13.5%), and 4 were dissatisfied (7.7%). CONCLUSION Arthroscopic repair via modified viewing portal for Lafosse Ⅰsubscapularis tendon tears, which can achieve the satisfactory visualization and working space, can obtain good short-term effectiveness with low overall re-tear risk.

The total Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.708, and the coefficients for each dimension were 0.762, 0.642, 0.625, 0.510, and 0.644, respectively. The half reliability coefficient of the scale was 0.824.Conclusions:The development process of the Nutrition Impact Symptom Scale for Colorectal Cancer Patients is scientific, with good reliability and validity, and can be used to evaluate the nutrition impact symptom of colorectal cancer patients.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the early effectiveness of arthroscopic repair of supraspinatus tendon tears with douple-pulley suture-bridge. METHODS: The clinical data of 38 patients with supraspinatus tendon tears who met the selection criteria between September 2020 and July 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, and all of them were treated with arthroscopic double-pulley suture-bridge technique. There were 15 males and 23 females, aged from 43 to 77 years, with an average of 61.5 years. There were 15 cases of left shoulder and 23 cases of right shoulder. Seven cases had a history of trauma, and the other 31 cases had no obvious inducement. The main clinical symptoms of the patient were pain in lifting the shoulder joint and hug resistance test (+). The time from onset of symptoms to admission ranged from 6 to 19 months, with an average of 10.3 months. Flexion, abduction, and external rotation of the shoulder were recorded before operation and at 3 and 12 months after operation. Pain and function of the shoulder were evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS) score, University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) shoulder score, and American Society of Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score before operation and at 12 months after operation. Tendon healing, tendon continuity, and tension were evaluated by MRI at 3-6 months after operation, and patient's satisfaction was evaluated at last follow-up. RESULTS: All the incisions healed by first intention, and there was no complication such as incision infection or nerve injury. All patients were followed up 12-34 months, with an average of 23.3 months. VAS score, UCLA shoulder score, and ASES score at 12 months after operation were significantly better than those before operation ( P<0.05). The external rotation range of shoulder joint significantly improved at 3 and 12 months after operation ( P<0.05), and it further improved at 12 months after operation when compared with 3 months after operation ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the range of flexion and abduction at 3 months after operation when compared with those before operation ( P>0.05), but the range of flexion and abduction at 12 months after operation significantly improved when compared with those before operation and at 3 months after operation ( P<0.05). MRI reexamination was performed in 28 patients at 3-6 months after operation. Among them, 25 patients had intact supraspinatus tendon structure, good tension, and tendon healing, and 3 patients had type 1 retear. The remaining 10 patients refused to undergo MRI reexamination because of the satisfactory effectiveness. At last follow-up, 29 patients (76.3%) were very satisfied with the results, 6 (15.7%) were satisfied, and 3 (7.8%) were not satisfied. CONCLUSION Arthroscopic double-pulley suture-bridge technique can achieve the effect of suture bridge operation, reduce the cost of operation and the risk of type 2 retear, and the early effectiveness is satisfactory, but the shoulder joint movement is limited within 3 months after operation.

Objective:To construct and evaluate the effect of precise oral nutrition guidance program for colorectal cancer patients with accelerated rehabilitation after operation.Methods:This study was a quasi experimental study. A total of 116 patients with colorectal cancer from department of Colorectal Surgery, Jiangsu Cancer Hospital from March to Deamber, 2021 were selected by convenience sampling method. They were divided into two groups according to their admission time, the experimental group (58 cases), was given precise oral nutrition guidance program after colorectal cancer surgery based. In the control group, 58 cases were treated with the conventional dietary guidance for rapid rehabilitation. The gastrointestinal tolerance rate, the compliance rate of oral nutritional supplements, the first defecation time after operation, albumin, total albumin, prealbumin and other nutritional indexes were compared between the two groups before and after intervention.Results:Finally, 111 cases were included, induding 56 in the experimental group and 55 in the control group. The compliance rate of oral nutritional supplements after intervention in the experimental group was 73.2% (41/56), higher than that in the control group 40.0%(22/55), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 12.47, P<0.05). The first defecation time after operation in the experimental group was (29.51 ± 5.52) h, while in the control group was (61.48 ± 8.39) h, the difference between the two groups was significant ( t = -12.06, P<0.05). The postoperative enteral nutrition tolerance rate of the experimental group was 91.1% (51/56), which was higher than the 69.1%(38/55) in the control group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 8.44, P<0.05). The serum total protein, albumin and prealbumin levels of the experimental group at discharge were (66.56 ± 5.15), (46.78 ± 7.62) g/L and (276.07 ± 53.57) mg/L, compared with the (60.27 ± 4.37), (39.12 ± 6.41) g/L and (230.14 ± 44.58) mg/L in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t = 6.66, 5.02, 4.91, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The implementation of precise oral nutrition guidance program is conducive to guiding the clinical practice of oral nutritional supplements in patients with colorectal cancer after surgery, improving patient compliance, reducing gastrointestinal intolerance, promoting intestinal function recovery, and improving nutritional status of patients.

The retrieval period was from the database construction to May 1, 2021. The quality of the literature was evaluated by the Australian JBI qualitative research quality evaluation criteria for evidence-based health care centres, and the results were integrated by the pooled integration method of Meta-integration.Results:A total of 11 studies were included, 52 results were extracted, 13 categories were summarized and 4 integrated results were obtained: heavy negative psychological experience; undergo physical trials; a desire for outside support; adjust to the disease.Conclusions:According to the four aspects of experience and needs of patients with oral anticancer drugs at home, medical staff should guide them to establish health belief, improve disease perception and coping ability, and take measures to meet patients′ needs for knowledge, communication and social support through multiple channels.

Objective:To explore the inner experience of self-management of adverse drug reactions in patients with oral chemotherapy at home, so as to provide a basis for medical staff to better implement home supervision of patients.Methods:This study was a qualitative study. The purposive sampling method was used to select 12 patients with gastrointestinal tumors who were admitted to Department of Oncology of a ClassⅢ Grade A hospital in Nanjing from April to May 2021 and were required to take oral chemotherapy drugs at home for semi-structured in-depth interviews. Colaizzi's 7-step analysis method was used to analyze and summarize the interview data.Results:A total of 3 themes and 7 sub-themes were extracted from the inner experience of self-management of adverse drug reactions in patients with oral chemotherapy at home. Theme one was the perception of self-management of adverse drug reactions in patients undergoing oral chemotherapy at home. This included anxiety and fear in the face of adverse reactions and ambivalence in seeking to communicate with medical staff. The topic two was the attitude and behavior of self-management of adverse drug reactions in patients with home-based oral chemotherapy drugs. This included insufficient attention to active review of adverse effects of myelosuppression and a lack of ability to identify adverse drug reactions. The topic three was the motivation and needs of self-management of adverse drug reactions in patients with home-based oral chemotherapy. The family's careful care provided strong support, the convenience of mobile communication relieved the patient's troubles and there was a need for information and knowledge of the adverse reactions of oral chemotherapy drugs.Conclusions:Medical staff need to strengthen drug knowledge education and psychological care for gastrointestinal tumor patients taking oral chemotherapy drugs at home and build a mobile information platform to improve their self-management capabilities.

Objective:To explore the real experience of developing self-consciousness, self-discovery, self-identity crisis and self-cognition improvement of young cancer patients from the initial stage of diagnosis, and to provide reference for medical staff to construct the intervention mode of psychosocial support.Methods:Using phenomenological method in qualitative research, 14 young cancer patients aged 18-25 years from April 2019 to August 2020 in Jiangsu Cancer Hospital were interviewed in semi-structured way separately at three time points: initial diagnosis, 6 months after diagnosis and 12 months after diagnosis. 7-step Colaizzi analysis was used to analyze the data.Results:Three themes were extracted as following. The dilemma of self-cognition, self-identity biases and the exploration of self-identity.Conclusions:Attention should be paid to the psychological problems of young cancer patients at all stages, and meet the needs of patients to talk, cooperate with professional psychotherapists, encourage patients to recognize themselves, tap the inner positive power, so as to improve their sense of self-identity.

Objective:To establish and evaluate the clinical prediction model of stigma in patients with lymphoma so as to provide a basis for the assessment and response of stigma in patients with lymphoma.Methods:Convenience sampling method was used to select 130 patients with lymphoma who were hospitalized in Jiangsu Cancer Hospital from June to December 2019. We collected patients' clinical data, and assessed patients' quality of life and stigma. The R software was used to analyze and process the data, and screened characteristic factors were predicted by combining with the LASSO regression model. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of stigma in patients with lymphoma. We constructed a nomogram model to evaluate the identification, calibration and clinical applicability of the predictive model through C index, calibration chart and decision curve analysis.Results:A total of 120 patients' valid data were gathered. Patients with lymphoma had a high level of stigma. The predictive factors of the predictive model included whether to be hospitalized for the first time, age, patient's medical insurance type, scores of the thirtieth and twenty-seventh question of the quality of life questionnaire. The model showed good predictive ability. The C index of training group, overall sample and validation group were 0.824, 0.776 and 0.684 respectively, and the C index performed well.Conclusions:The nomogram model developed in this research can help clinical nurses early identify lymphoma patients with a high level stigma, and give targeted response plans, which can greatly improve the quality of life and prognosis of patients, and is worthy of clinical application.
