Objective To survey the levels and distributed status of serum vitamin D in children in Hanzhong city of Shaanxi,and provide a basis for the prevention of children with vitamin D deficiency.Methods A total of 6 780 children aged 1 to 6 years from March 2019 to February 2021 in Children's Health Clinic of Hanzhong Center Hospital for physical examination were selected as subjects.The levels of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D[25(OH)D],serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D2[25(OH)D2]and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3[25(OH)D3]were measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS),and the factors of ages and sexes and seasons were analyzed.Results The levels of serum 25(OH)D,25(OH)D2 and 25(OH)D3 in all children were 38.24±9.84 ng/ml,2.31±3.91 ng/ml and 35.93±9.93 ng/ml,respectively.The vitamin D deficiency rate,insufficiency rate and adequacy rate were 2.75%(186/6 780),18.29%(1 240/6 780)and 78.96%(5 354/6 780),respectively.The levels of serum 25(OH)D and 25(OH)D3 in children aged 1~2,2~3 and 3~6 years were gradually decreased with the growth of age,while the rate of vitamin D deficiency was increased,with significant differences(F=1 153.499,1 165.341,1 374.051,all P<0.05).There were no significant differences in distributed status of serum of vitamin D and the levels of serum 25(OH)D,25(OH)D2 and 25(OH)D3 levels among different genders(t/x2=0.727,1.271,0.222,2.659,all P>0.05).The levels of serum 25(OH)D and 25(OH)D3 in winter were lower than those in spring,summer and autumn,and the differences were statistically significant(q=6.853,7.281,6.801;5.341,6.225,5.989,all P<0.01).The vitamin D deficiency rate in winter was higher than that in spring,summer and autumn(6.60%,2.64%,1.91%,1.66%).and the differences were statistically significant(x2=31.733,52.252,57.756,all P<0.01).Conclusion A high incidence of vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency was found in children aged 3 to 6 in Hanzhong city.It was necessary to strengthen outdoor activities in winter,encourage monitoring of serum vitamin D levels,and supplement vitamin D if necessary.

Objective To screen the influencing factors of hepatitis C cirrhosis patients progressing to hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)using commonly used laboratory testing indicators,establish a prediction model using these indicators and validate them.Methods A total of 231 patients with hepatitis C cirrhosis and 179 patients with hepatitis C HCC hospitalized at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University between June 2020 and May 2023 were enrolled as the training set,and 105 patients with hepatitis C cirrhosis and 86 patients with hepatitis C HCC hospitalized between June 2023 and February 2024 were enrolled as the validation set.The routine laboratory test indexes of the study subjects in the two groups within the training set were compared,and logistic regression analysis was applied to screen the independent predictors of hepatocellular carcinoma occurrence.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to construct the curve model and validate the model.Results The age,male ratio,ALT,AST,AFP,WBC,NEU,MO,PLT,MPV,PDW,Fbg,NLR and PLR levels of the HCC group were higher than those of the cirrhosis group in the training set(H=-9.07~-2.19),while the levels of INR and LMR were lower than those of the cirrhosis group(H=-4.49,-2.65),and the differences were significant(all P<0.05).The differences in TP,eGFR,LY and AST/ALT values between the two groups of patients were not significant(H=-1.46~-0.15,all P>0.05).Multifactorial Logistic regression analysis showed that age(OR=1.048,95%CI:1.023~1.074),Male(OR=1.467,95%CI:1.413~1.765),AST(OR=1.010,95%CI:1.002~1.019),NEU(OR=1.186,95%CI:1.018~1.382)and Fbg(OR=2.245,95%CI:1.639~3.076)were independent risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma patients(all P<0.05),and these five independent risk factors were used to construct the HCC column-line graph prediction model,with the AUC for the training set and the validation set AUC(95%Cl)were 0.813(0.771~0.854)and 0.712(0.639~0.784),respectively,and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed a good fit of the model with P=0.650 for the training set and P=0.310 for the validation set.Conclusion The prediction model of HCC based on age,gender,AST,NEU and Fbg can have good predictive efficacy and clinical application value.

Objective To understand the current situation of literature research of diabetes care in China by analyzing Chinese periodicals using bibliometric analysis,and to provide a direction of diabetes care in future research. Methods The topic retrieval was conducted in CNKI and Wanfang Database. The retrieved data was remerged through NoteExpress to obtain eligible documents. Bicomb analysis software was used to analyze the literature characteristics. Results Approximately 4431 Chinese papers that related to diabetes care were published from 1956 to 2016,and most productive in 2011 of 400 papers. Journal of Qilu Nursing ranked the first with 906(20.447%)posting volume,followed by Chinese Nursing Research and Chinese General Practice Nursing,with the total volume of 540(12.187%)and 538(12.142%)respectively. Only 187(4.220%) articles of diabetes care were published on Chinese Nursing Journal. The General Hospital of PLA had the highest publications of 70(1.579%)articles. The frequent key words for diabetes care were diabetic foot,type 2 diabetes,nursing intervention,health education,and the elderly,etc. Conclusions The research of diabetes care starts late but is rapidly developing in China. The quality of related publications is not good enough and the research is more likely to depend on diabetes medicine. The hotspot of current research is type 2 diabetes, diabetes in the elderly,diabetic foot,and the research frontiers is health education.

Objective To compare the cumulative analgesic effects of electroacupuncture at Sanyinjiao (SP6), Xuanzhong (GB39) and non-acupoint in treating primary dysmenorrhea. Method By adopting a multi-centered randomized controlled study method, 501 patients recruited from Dongzhimen Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, China-Japan Friendship Hospital, Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Capital Medical University, First Teaching Hospital of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Huguosi Hospital of Chinese Medicine of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine and the Outpatient of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were randomized into a Sanyinjiao group, a Xuanzhong group, and a non-acupoint group, 167 subjects in each group. The electroacupuncture intervention was applied when dysmenorrhea flared up and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) ≥40 mm, with frequency at 2/100 Hz and intensity during patient’s endurance, 30 min each time, once a day, and for successive 3 d. Before the first treatment, 30 min after the first treatment, and respectively prior to the second and third treatment, VAS was used to measure the pain intensity. Meanwhile, the Retrospective Symptom Scale (RSS-COX 2) was investigated before the first treatment, right after the removal of needles for the first treatment, before the second and third treatment. Result The decrease of VAS in Sanyinjiao group was more significant than that in Xuanzhong group and non-acupoint group (MD=﹣2.92 mm, P=0.028; MD=﹣3.47 mm, P=0.009), while there was no significant difference between Xuanzhong group and non-acupoint group (MD=﹣0.56 mm, P=0.674); there were no significant differences in comparing the RSS-COX2 total score among the three groups (P=0.086). Conclusion Sanyinjiao (SP6) can produce a more significant cumulative analgesic effect for primary dysmenorrhea patient than Xuanzhong and non-acupoint, and the effects of Xuanzhong and non-acupoit are equivalent.
