OBJECTIVE To analyze the current situation of drug use in domestic aeromedical rescue, and provide references for the development of aeromedical rescue services and the rational use of drugs on board. METHODS All literature on aeromedical rescue in China were retrieved from the databases of SinoMed, CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang data up to September 1st, 2024. Extracting descriptive analysis were conducted on the literature screened by the inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS A total of 36 literature were included. Aeromedical rescue cases had been reported in China since 1985, with a cumulative total of 5 370 cases reported. Prehospital rescue performed 861 cases, with 96.40% of them involving the use of at least 9 categories, totaling at least 10 different drugs, primarily emergency drugs. Interhospital rescue performed 4 509 cases, and 85.23% of them used over 48 kinds of drugs across 19 categories, mainly emergency drugs supplemented by specialty drugs. From the view of transportation, 5 166 air transfers were made by helicopters, of which 88.00% involved the use of drugs, and 204 cases by fixed-wing aircraft, of which 91.18% involved the use of drugs. CONCLUSIONS Drugs are frequently used in aeromedical rescue involving a wide variety of types in China. It is imperative to strengthen the focus on the equipment and rational use of drugs in aeromedical rescue, thereby facilitating the establishment of a standardized theoretical framework.

BackgroundObsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common neuropsychiatric illness and is listed as one of the top ten disabling conditions causing loss of income and reduced quality of life. Psychological distress is an important cause of anhedonia in OCD patients, and is closely related to psychosomatic symptoms. Therefore, exploring the role of anhedonia in the relationship between psychological distress and psychosomatic symptoms is of great significance for optimizing clinical psychological treatment protocols for OCD patients. ObjectiveTo explore the role of anhedonia in the relationship between psychological distress and psychosomatic symptoms in OCD patients, with the aim of providing references for managing psychosomatic symptoms in patients. MethodsA total of 90 patients who met the diagnostic criteria for OCD according to the International Classification of Diseases, tenth edition (ICD-10), and who visited the Mental Health Center outpatient clinic of General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from September 2023 to November 2024 were selected as the study objects. The instruments and techniques used for the evaluation were: Dimensional Anhedonia Rating Scale (DARS), 10-item Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) and Psychosomatic Symptom Scale (PSSS). Model 4 of the Process for SPSS 26.0 was used to test the mediating role of anhedonia in the relationship between psychological distress and psychosomatic symptoms, with Bootstrapping used to assess the significance of mediating effect. ResultsA total of 84 patients (93.33%) completed the valid questionnaire. K10 score was positively correlated with PSSS total score, psychological symptom score and physical symptom score (r=0.559, 0.460, 0.551, P<0.01). K10 score was negatively correlated with DARS total score (r=-0.527, P<0.01). The total score of DARS was negatively correlated with PSSS total score (r=-0.497, P<0.01). Anhedonia mediated the relationship between psychological distress and psychosomatic symptoms, with an indirect effect value was 0.148 (95% CI: 0.042~0.278), accounting for 26.48% of the total effect. ConclusionPsychological distress can affect the psychosomatic symptoms in OCD patients both directly and indirectly via anhedonia.

Liver failure is a common clinical syndrome with rapid progression and poor prognosis. Currently, there are still limited internal medical treatment methods for liver failure, and artificial liver support therapy is an effective treatment method. Non-bioartificial liver technology is widely used in clinical practice, and clinicians should determine the starting time, mode, and specific parameters of treatment according to the pathophysiological mechanism and dynamic evolution process of the disease, as well as the specific conditions of patients. Compared with non-bioartificial liver, biological artificial liver can better simulate the biological function of liver cells. At present, substantial progress has been made in its core technology, and related clinical studies are being conducted actively, suggesting a vast potential for future development. This article summarizes and discusses the optimization of non-bioartificial liver technology and the advances in biological artificial liver, in order to provide a reference for the clinical application and research of artificial liver technology.

Background Arsenic exposure is a common and important environmental and occupational hazardous factor in China, and arsenic-induced insulin resistance (IR) has attracted widespread attention as a negative health outcome to the population. Objective To explore part of the mechanism of hepatic IR induced by arsenic exposure based on the peroxisome proliferators-activated receptors γ (PPARγ)/ glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) pathway, and to investigate potential effects of Ginkgo biloba extract (GBE) on hepatic IR induced by arsenic exposure and associated mechanism of action. Methods The target of drug action was predicted by network pharmacology and verified by in vivo and in vitro experiments. In vivo experiments: 48 SPF C57BL/6J male mice were divided into 4 groups, including control group, 50 mg·L−1 NaAsO2 model group (NaAsO2), 50 mg·L−1 NaAsO2+10 mg·kg−1 GBE intervene group (NaAsO2+GBE), and 10 mg·kg−1 GBE group (GBE), 12 mice in each group. The animals were given free access to purified water containing 50 mg·L−1 NaAsO2, or given intraperitoneal injection of normal saline containing 10 mg·kg−1 GBE once per week. After 6 months of exposure, blood glucose detection, intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (IPGTT), and insulin tolerance test (ITT) were performed. Serum and liver tissues were collected after the mice were neutralized, liver histopathological sections were obtained, serum insulin levels, liver tissue glycogen content, glucose content were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the expression of PPARγ and GLUT4 proteins was detected by Western blot (WB). In vitro experiments: HepG2 cells were divided into 4 groups, including control group, 8 μmol·L−1 NaAsO2 group (NaAsO2), 8 μmol·L−1 NaAsO2 + 200 mg·L−1 GBE intervene group (NaAsO2+GBE), and 200 mg·L−1 GBE group (GBE). The levels of glycogen and glucose were detected by ELISA, and the expression of PPARγ and GLUT4 proteins was detected by WB. Results A strong binding effect between GBE and PPARγ was revealed by network pharmacology. In in vivo experiments, the NaAsO2 group exhibited an elevated blood glucose compared to the control group, and the NaAsO2+GBE group showed a decreased blood glucose compared to the NaAsO2 group (P<0.01). The histopathological sections indicated severe liver structural damage in the arsenic exposure groups (NaAsO2 group and NaAsO2+GBE group), with varying staining intensity, partial liver cell necrosis, and diffuse red blood cell appearance. Both results of in vitro and in vivo experiments showed a decrease in glycogen synthesis and glucose uptake in the NaAsO2 groups compared to the control groups, which was alleviated in the NaAsO2+GBE group (P<0.01). The results of WB revealed inhibited PPARγ expression and reduced GLUT4 levels on the cell membrane, and all these changes were alleviated in the NaAsO2+GBE group (P<0.01). Conclusion This study findings suggest that GBE antagonizes arsenic exposure-induced hepatic IR by regulating the PPARγ/GLUT4 pathway, indicating that GBE has a protective effect on arsenic exposure-induced hepatic IR, and PPARγ may be a potential therapeutic target for arsenic exposure-induced hepatic IR.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effect difference between first-line treatment with epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKI) and chemotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) rare mutation.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was performed. Data of NSCLC patients with rare EGFR mutation who were treated in Shanxi Province Cancer Hospital from January 2013 to October 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. EGFR mutations in living tissues or blood were detected by using amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction (ARMS-PCR) before first-line treatment. According to first-line treatment methods,they were divided into EGFR-TKI treatment group and chemotherapy group. Objective remission rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) of both groups were compared. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw progression-free survival (PFS) and the overall survival (OS) curves. Log-rank test was used for comparison among groups. Single-factor and multi-factor Cox proportional risk models were used to analyze the influencing factors of PFS and OS.Results:A total of 169 patients with EGFR rare mutations were included, and the age [ M (IQR)] was 63 years (12 years); there were 96 cases (56.8%) < 65 years and 73 cases (43.2%) ≥65 years; 70 (41.4%)males and 99 (58.6%) females; 55 cases (32.5%) had EGFR G719X mutation,45 cases (26.6%) had L861Q mutation, 17 cases (10.1%) had S768I mutation, and 52 cases (30.8%) had complex mutation; 55 cases (32.5%) received the first-line chemotherapy and 114 cases (67.5%) received the first-line EGFR-TKI treatment. In the chemotherapy group, ORR was 36.4% (20/55) and DCR was 85.5% (47/55); in EGFR-TKI treatment group, ORR was 72.8% (83/114) and DCR was 90.4% (103/114). The ORR of EGFR-TKI treatment group was higher than that of chemotherapy group ( χ2 = 20.70, P = 0.001), and there was no statistically significant difference in DCR between two groups ( χ2 = 1.76, P = 0.184). Subgroup analysis showed that ORR in EGFR-TKI treatment group with G719X, L861Q and complex mutations was higher than that of the corresponding mutations in chemotherapy group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05), while there were no significant differences in DCR among subgroups (all P > 0.05). The median PFS time was 9.7 months (95% CI: 6.0-13.4 months) and 3.8 months (95% CI: 3.1-7.1 months), respectively in EGFR-TKI treatment group and chemotherapy group, and there was a statistically significant difference in PFS between the two groups ( P < 0.001). The median OS time was 25.6 months (95% CI: 18.0-37.9 months) and 31.7 months (95% CI: 18.0-42.8 months), respectively in EGFR-TKI treatment group and chemotherapy group, and there was no statistically significant difference in OS between the two groups ( P = 0.231). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that brain metastasis [with vs. without: HR = 2.306, 95% CI: 1.452-3.661, P < 0.001] and the first-line treatment methods (EGFR-TKI vs. chemotherapy: HR = 0.457, 95% CI:0.317-0.658, P < 0.001) were independent influencing factors for PFS of NSCLC patients with EGFR rare mutation; brain metastasis (with vs. without: HR = 2.087, 95% CI: 1.102-3.953, P = 0.024; unknown vs. without: HR = 2.118,95% CI: 1.274-3.520, P = 0.004) were independent influencing factors for OS of NSCLC patients with EGFR rare mutation. Conclusions:Compared with the first-line chemotherapy, EGFR-TKI first-line treatment could improve objective remission and PFS of NSCLC patients with EGFR rare mutation, while no OS benefit is observed.

Objective:Analyze the cancer screening status of the cancer screening program in urban areas in Shaanxi province in 2019-2020.Methods:The early diagnosis and early treatment project for urban cancers carried out high-risk population screening for 5 types of high-incidence malignant tumors (breast cancer, lung cancer, upper gastrointestinal cancer, liver cancer, and colorectal cancer) in urban areas. Three prefecture-level cities in Shaanxi province with a population of over 1 million (Xi'an, Baoji, and Shangluo) were selected, and 4 communities with a relatively good working foundation were selected in each city. The general population aged 45-74 years was surveyed on the principles of informed consent and voluntariness, and high-risk groups identified through the questionnaire were further subjected to free endoscopy, ultrasound, CT, and other clinical screenings. The high-risk rates, screening compliance rates, and positive detection rates of the above 5 types of malignant tumors were analyzed.Results:A total of 19 632 people completed the survey effectively, with the proportion of male participants (40.0%) lower than that of females (60.0%). A total of 10 102 high-risk groups were identified, with an initial screening high-risk rate of 51.5%, and the high-risk rates for the 5 types of cancers were 24.1% for breast cancer, 28.6% for lung cancer, 9.1% for upper gastrointestinal cancer, 4.0% for liver cancer, and 20.0% for colorectal cancer. Among the 14 960 person-time initially assessed as high-risk, 5 129 person-time received clinical screening, with a screening compliance rate of 34.3%. The number of people receiving clinical screening and the screening compliance rates for the 5 types of cancers were 1 192 (41.9%) for breast cancer, 2 081 (37.1%) for lung cancer, 574 (32.0%) for upper gastrointestinal cancer, 404 (51.3%) for liver cancer, and 878 (22.3%) for colorectal cancer, with positive detection numbers and rates of 179 (15.0%) for breast, 289 (13.9%) for lung, 9 (1.6%) for upper gastrointestinal, 14 (3.5%) for suspected liver, and 67 (7.6%) for colorectal, respectively.Conclusion:The cancer screening status of the cancer screening program in urban areas in Shaanxi province is beneficial for the detection of precancerous lesions and early cancer patients, and improving the early diagnosis and treatment rate of patients, but the public participation rate is not high, and the project management model and technical plan need to be further improved.

Objective:To elucidate the epidemiological characteristics and changing trends of liver failure in order to provide evidence-based strategies for prevention and treatment.Methods:The epidemiological information of inpatients with liver failure admitted and treated at Beijing You'an Hospital from 2012 to 2021 was retrospectively collected. The trend test was used to analyze age, gender, as well as the year-by-year changes in the underlying acute and chronic etiology of acute liver failure (ALF), sub-acute liver failure (SALF), acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF), and chronic liver failure (CLF).Results:During the study period, information on a total of 8512 inpatients, aged 51.3±13.5 years and mainly male (71.9%) with liver failure, was collected. The highest to lowest proportions of liver failure types were ACLF 4 023 (47.3%), CLF 3 571(42.0%), SALF 670 (7.9%), and ALF 248 (2.9%). The top five causes of liver failure in the overall population, accounting for 87.6% of the total, were hepatitis B 3 199 (37.58%), alcoholic liver disease 2 237 (26.28%), cryptogenic liver disease 906(10.61%), hepatitis B + alcoholic liver disease 603 (7.08%), drugs 488 (5.73%), The top three etiologies of patients with different types of liver failure were acute etiologies for acute liver failure (ALF), followed by drugs 107 (43.1%), hepatitis B 47(19.0%), and unknown etiology 36 (14.5%); sub-acute liver failure (SALF), followed by drugs 381(56.9%), unknown etiology 106 (15.8%), and sepsis 56 (8.4%); and acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF), followed by drugs 2 092(52.0%), alcoholic liver disease 813(20.2%), and cryptogenic liver disease 398(9.9%); and chronic etiologies for chronic liver failure (CLF), followed by alcoholic liver disease 1 410(39.5%), hepatitis B 1 028(28.8%), and cryptogenic liver disease 364(10.2%). Longitudinal analysis showed that the average age of patients with liver failure increased year by year, but the sex ratio trend did not change significantly, with male patients predominating throughout. The proportion of drug-induced liver failure in patients with ALF and SALF increased year by year, and the difference in the trend test was statistically significant ( P < 0.05). The proportion of patients with chronic etiologies of ACLF and CLF decreased year by year among hepatitis B, while the proportion of alcoholic liver disease, autoimmune liver disease, and cryptogenic liver disease increased year by year (the difference was statistically significant, P < 0.05). Conclusion:The etiological spectrum of liver failure is changing in our country. Although hepatitis B is still the main cause of liver failure, its proportion shows a decreasing trend year by year, with the exception of ACLF, which is no longer the primary etiology of other types of liver failure, while drug-induced liver disease, alcoholic liver disease, autoimmune liver disease, and cryptogenic liver disease are increasing year by year and will become the focus of liver disease prevention and treatment in the future.

Objective:To build a nursing care plan decision-making support system based on the hospital's nursing information system and evaluate its effects in newly hired nurses.Methods:This study adopted a non-synchronous pre-post control design. Totally 181 newly hired nurses recruited by Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, were selected by convenience sampling. The control group consisted of 85 new nurses hired in August 2021, while the intervention group consisted of 96 new nurses hired in August 2022. The control group received traditional training methods, while the intervention group received training through the nursing care plan decision-making support system in addition to the traditional methods. The nursing decision-making ability and the quality of specialty nursing care were compared between the two groups.Results:Finally, 81 nurses were included in the control group, and 93 nurses were included in the intervention group. The nursing decision-making ability score in the intervention group was (80.15±4.59), which was significantly higher than the (78.62±5.13) in the control group ( t=-2.080, P=0.039). The intervention group also had a significantly higher qualified rate of specialty nursing care compared to the control group (χ 2=6.626, P=0.036) . Conclusions:The application of the nursing care plan decision-making support system in the standardized training of newly hired nurses can improve their nursing decision-making abilities and the quality of specialty nursing care.

Objective:To explore the changes in cardiac rehabilitation information needs of patients undergoing cryobaiioon ablation (CBA) for atrial fibrillation, analyze the influencing factors of different trajectory categories, so as to provide reference for rehabilitation guidance.Methods:From January 2022 to April 2023, convenience sampling was used to select patients who were planning to undergo CBA in the Cardiovascular Department at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University as participants. Patients were surveyed using the Information Needs in Cardiac Rehabilitation Scale at one day before surgery (T0), one month after surgery (T1), three months after surgery (T2), and six months after surgery (T3) .Results:A total of 257 questionnaires were distributed, and 218 valid questionnaires were collected. The total scores of the Information Needs in Cardiac Rehabilitation Scale for 218 patients at T0, T1, T2, and T3 were (187.86±35.28), (183.27±34.98), (174.03±34.01), and (167.35±33.96), respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in the total scores of the Information Needs in Cardiac Rehabilitation Scale among 218 patients at different time points ( F=18.237, P<0.01). Four potential trajectory categories were fitted, namely the sustained medium high need group (40.83%, 89/218), the medium high need-decline group (36.70%, 80/218), the medium low need-improvement group (7.34%, 16/218), and the medium low need-decline group (15.14%, 33/218). Age, whether to merge underlying chronic diseases, place of residence, social support, and postoperative complications were potential trajectory factors affecting the cardiac rehabilitation information needs of atrial fibrillation patients ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Medical and nursing staff should assess the development trajectory of patients' cardiac rehabilitation information needs as early as possible, emphasize the importance of cardiac rehabilitation, establish remote and controllable cardiac rehabilitation programs, encourage rural residents to participate in local community related cardiac rehabilitation activities, mobilize patients' social support resources, and improve their needs and compliance with cardiac rehabilitation.
