Objective:To assess the effectiveness of a 6-month Ba Duan Jin exercise program in improving the balance of community-dwelling older adults.Methods:A two arms, parallel-group, cluster randomized controlled trial was conducted in 1 028 community residents aged 60-80 years in 40 communities in 5 provinces of China. Participants in the intervention group (20 communities, 523 people) received Ba Duan Jin exercise 5 days/week, 1 hour/day for 6 months, and three times of falls prevention health education, and the control group (20 communities, 505 people) received falls prevention health education same as the intervention group. The Berg balance scale (BBS) score was the leading outcome indicator, and the secondary outcome indicators included the length of time of standing on one foot (with eyes open and closed), standing in a tandem stance (with eyes open and closed), the closed circle test, and the timed up to test.Results:A total of 1 028 participants were included in the final analysis, including 731 women (71.11%) and 297 men (28.89%), and the age was (69.87±5.67) years. After the 3-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 3.05 (95% CI: 2.23-3.88) points ( P<0.001). After the 6-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 4.70 (95% CI: 4.03-5.37) points ( P<0.001). Ba Duan Jin showed significant improvement ( P<0.05) in all secondary outcomes after 6 months of exercise in the intervention group compared with the control group. Conclusions:This study showed that Ba Duan Jin exercise can improve balance in community-dwelling older adults aged 60-80. The longer the exercise time, the better the improvement.

Objective To analyze the effect of nursing interventions based on the Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills (IMB) model in patients with functional dyspepsia, in order to improve their psychological state and gastrointestinal motility, and provide reference for clinical nursing. Methods A total of 160 functional dyspepsia patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical College from December 2022 to June 2023 were chosen as the study subjects. They were randomly divided into control group and observation group, using a random number table method, with 80 cases in each group. Patients in control group were given routine nursing intervention, and patients in the observation group were treated nursing intervention based on IMB model. The psychological state, gastrointestinal motility andquality of life of the two groups were compared before and after intezrvention. Results After intervention, the scores of Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) in two groups were decreased, and the observation group was lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05). After intervention, the levels of gastrointestinal hormone nitric oxide (NO), serum motilin (MTL) andserum gastrin (GAS) in two groups were improved, and the levels of all indexes in the observation group were better than those in the control group (P < 0.05). After intervention, gastrointestinal quality of life index (GIQLI) of two groups was improved, and the observation group was higher than the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion Nursing interventions based on the IMB model are beneficial for alleviating anxiety and depression in patients with functional dyspepsia, effectively enhancing gastrointestinal motility and vitality, and improving their quality of life.

This paper reports the diagnosis and treatment of a case of lymphocytic hypophysitis in pregnancy complicated by intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy. The 32-year-old patient had regular menstrual cycles and conceived naturally. Around 24 weeks of gestation, she developed a headache without abnormalities in the visual field. Skin itching occurred at 32 weeks of gestation, but her headache was significantly relieved. By 33 +1 weeks of pregnancy, the patient experienced elevated total bile acid, transaminase, and hypoglycemia, leading to a diagnosis of intrahepatic cholestasis of gestation (mild). Subsequently, at 33 +6 weeks of gestation, her total bile acid increased substantially, and the disease progressed rapidly into intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (severe). As a result, an emergency cesarean section was performed to terminate the pregnancy. The Apgar score of the newborn was five points at one minute and ten points at five minutes. Following the surgery, the patient showed no lactation and had symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and refractory hyponatremia. Blood hormone measurement showed hypopituitarism. An enhanced intracranial MRI showed pituitary enlargement and uniform enhancement. Consequently, the clinical diagnosis was lymphocytic hypophysitis. Treatment with glucocorticoids effectively alleviated the symptoms. Menstruation resumed after more than one month of delivery. The intracranial MRI in postpartum reexamination after six months of delivery revealed a disappearance of the lesion. The patient continued with oral glucocorticoid therapy.

Enzyme-catalyzed CO₂ reduction to value-added commodities is important for alleviating the global environmental issues and energy crises due to high selectivity and mild conditions. Owing to high energy density, formic acid or methanol produced from CO₂ using formate dehydrogenase (FDH) or multi-enzyme cascades are promising target chemicals for CO₂ utilization. However, the low activity, poor stability and low reusability of key enzymes involved in such process hampered its large-scale application. Enzyme immobilization provides an effective solution to these problems and significant progress have been made in immobilization carriers. Moreover, integration of enzyme immobilization with other catalysis techniques have been explored extensively. This review summarized the recent advances in the immobilization of enzymes using membranes, inorganic materials, metal-organic frameworks, covalent organic frameworks and other carriers, and illustrated the characteristics and advantages of different immobilization materials and immobilization methods. The synergistic effects and applications of immobilized enzymes and electrocatalytic or photocatalytic coupling reaction systems for CO₂ reduction were further summarized. Finally, the current challenges of enzyme immobilization technology and coupling reaction systems were pointed out and their development prospects were presented.

In 2016, a national one million general population cohort project was set up in China for the first time in "Precision Medicine Research" Key Project, National Key Research and Development Program of China, which consists of general population cohorts in seven areas in China. As one of the seven major areas in China, northeastern China has unique climate and specific dietary patterns, and population aging is serious in this area. And the burden of chronic and non-communicable diseases ranks tops in China. Therefore, it is of great significance to establish a large general population cohort in northeastern China to explore the area specific exposure factors related to pathogenesis and prognosis of chronic and non-communicable diseases, develop new prevention strategies to reduce the burden of the diseases and improve the population health in northeastern China. In July 2018, the general population cohort study in northeastern China was launched, the study includes questionnaire survey, health examination and blood, urine and stool sample collection and detection in recruited participants. By now, the cohort has covered all age groups, and the baseline data of 115 414 persons have been collected. This paper summarizes the design and practice of the general population cohort study in northeastern China to provide reference for related research in China.

Objectives:To evaluate the role of pancreas multidisciplinary team(MDT) clinic in the diagnosis of pancreatic diseases,patient compliance with MDT advice,and the impact of MDT on the postoperative survival of patients with pancreatic cancer.Methods:The study included 927 patients(554 males,373 females,aged (58.1±13.3)years (range: 15 to 89 years)) that had visited the pancreas MDT clinic of Zhongshan Hospital from May 2015 to December 2021,and 677 patients(396 males, 281 females, aged (63.6±8.9)years(range: 32 to 95 years)) who underwent radical surgery and with pathologically confirmed pancreatic adenocarcinoma from January 2012 to December 2020,of whom 79 patients had attended the pancreas MDT. The clinical and pathological data were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Diseases were classified in accordance with 2010 WHO classification of tumors of the digestive system and usual clinical practices. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for drawing the survival curve and calculating the survival rate. The univariate analysis was done by Log-rank test and the multivariate analysis was done by COX proportional hazards model. Survival rates were compared using χ 2 test. Results:Among the 927 patients that had visited the MDT clinic,233 patients(25.1%) were referred due to undetermined diagnosis. A direct diagnosis was made in 109 cases (46.8%,109/233) by the MDT clinic, of which 98 were consistent with the final diagnosis,resulting in an accuracy of 89.9%(98/109). The direct diagnosis rate in the recent years(36.6%(41/112),from June 2019 to December 2021) decreased compared to that in the previous years(56.2%(68/121),from May 2015 to May 2019),yet the accuracy in the recent years(90.2%,37/41) was basically the same as before (89.7%,61/68). The rate of compliance of the entire cohort was 71.5%(663/927), with the compliance rate in the recent two and a half years(81.4%,338/415) remarkably higher than that in the previous four years(63.4%,325/512). Patients with pancreatic cancer that attended the MDT exhibited a trend toward longer median postoperative survival than patients that did not attend the MDT,but the difference was not statistically significant(35.2 months vs.30.2 months, P>0.05). The 1-year and 3-year survival rates of patients that attended the MDT were significanly higher than patients that did not attend the MDT(88.6% vs. 78.4%, P<0.05;32.9% vs. 21.9%, P<0.05,respectively),but the 5-year survival rate was not statistically different(7.6% vs. 4.8%, P>0.05). Conclusions:The pancreas MDT clinic is an accurate and convenient way to diagnose intractable pancreatic diseases,and in the recent years the patients′ compliance rate with MDT advice has increased. Pancreatic cancer patients that have attended the MDT have higher 1-year and 3-year postoperative survival rates,but the long-term survival benefits of MDT still needs to be proved by clinical studies on a larger scale.

With the acceleration of the aging process of the population, the demand for joint replacement continues to increase. Under the background of enhanced recovery after surgery, outpatient joint replacement has become a safe, economic and effective model to shorten the average length of stay and reduce the cost of hospitalization. It has been widely used in foreign countries, but there are still some limitations in the development and promotion in China. Therefore, this study intends to review the perioperative management plan and implementation effect of joint replacement in foreign countries, in order to provide reference for the implementation and improvement of the concept of fast track surgery for bone and joint in China.

Objective: To evaluate the role of multidisciplinary team (MDT) clinic in the diagnosis of pancreatic diseases and patient compliance with MDT advice in the current medical system. Methods: The study included 512 patients that had visited the pancreas-oriented MDT clinic of Zhongshan Hospital between May 2015 and May 2019.The clinical and pathological data were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Diseases were classified in accordance with 2010 WHO classification of tumors of the digestive system and usual clinical practices. Compliance was determined according to whether a patient received corresponding therapies or undergoing further checks or follow-ups. Results: Among the 512 patients that had visited the MDT clinic, 121 patients were referred due to undetermined diagnosis. Classified according to the final diagnosis, the rate of undetermined diagnosis in different disease categories from high to low in order was inflammatory diseases of the pancreas (75.0%, 24/32), other lesions of the pancreas (56.1%,23/41), pancreatic cystic lesions (19.1%,17/89), pancreatic carcinomas (18.3%,48/262) and pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNEN)(10.2%,9/88). The MDT clinic made diagnosis to 68 patients directly with an accuracy of 89.7%. The rate of compliance in the entire cohort was 63.4%. The rate of compliance of patients from June 2017 to May 2019 (68.4%) was higher than that of patients from May 2015 to May 2017(59.6%). The compliance rate of patients in different disease categories from high to low in order was inflammatory diseases of the pancreas(84.4%, 27/32), pancreatic carcinomas (67.9%, 178/262), pNEN(60.2%,53/88), other lesions of the pancreas (56.1%,23/41), and pancreatic cystic lesions(49.4%, 44/89). The compliance rate of patients with different MDT advice from high to low in order was best supportive care(78.6%,22/28), antitumor approaches beyond surgery(71.6%,159/222), further tests(62.6%, 77/123), surgery(53.7%, 65/121) and follow-up(49.2%, 31/63). In patients suggested for surgery, the compliance rate of patients with carcinomas(67.4%, 33/49) was higher than patients with other kinds of neoplasms. Conclusions MDT clinic could facilitate the diagnosis of pancreatic diseases conveniently and inexpensively. The overall compliance rate of MDT clinic patients is rather low, and patients with carcinomas have a relative high rate of compliance with the suggestion of surgery.

Objective To investigate the value on clinical application of helical CT scanning combined with the technology of iDose4 in the pulmonary nodules.Methods 90 cases with pulmonary nodules underwent CT examination including the regular dose and low dose.The regular dose was performed with following parameters:tube voltage 120 kV,effective tube current of 150 mAs.The low dose was performed with following parameters:tube voltage 120 kV,effective tube current of 30 mAs.The other scanning requirements were as same as the regular dose.The volume CT dose index(CTDIvol)and dose-length product(DLP)were recorded.The all images were reconstructed by the technology of iDose4 of Level 1-7.Two radiologists blinded to the scan conditions independently reviewed all data sets for image quality.The number and the morphological features including the location,size,margin,lobulation sign were recorded.The clinical application effect were assessed.Results 108 pulmonary nodules were revealed in 90 cases with the regular dose.101 pulmonary nodules were revealed in 90 cases with the low dose.No statistical significance differences were seen between the regular dose and the low dose(P>0.05).No statistical significance differences were seen in the morphological features between the regular dose and the low dose(P>0.05).The radiation dose of the low dose reduced 75.8% with the regular dose,the difference was statistically(P<0.003).Conclusion There is no obvious differences between the regular dose and the low dose of helical CT scanning combined with the technology of iDose4 in the pulmonary nodules.The low dose of helical CT scanning combined with the technology of iDose4 can reduce the radiation dose.
