Objective:To design a virtual simulation tutorial system for bone traction nursing of the lower limbs, and to investigate its application effect.Methods:Based on clinical cases, a 3D model was established for the fractured lower limb using the virtual simulation technique. The design of the model considered the position and mechanical relationship between bone traction and fracture ends, as well as the assessment and intervention of the condition after bone traction, and such factors were taken as the core elements of simulation design. Virtual experiments were conducted for the four scenarios of pre-hospital first aid, triage in the hospital, bone traction operation, and postoperative nursing. Such experiments were conducted among junior nursing undergraduates, and examination results and student satisfaction survey were used to evaluate the application effect of the experiments.Results:The teaching software consisted of four training modules, i.e., theoretical knowledge learning of fractures, preparation before bone traction operation, methods and principles of bone traction operation, and observation of conditions after bone traction. The final score of experiments was (90.99±0.58) points among the students, and the degree of satisfaction with the experimental system and the teaching model was 87.85% (441/502) and 63.35% (318/502), respectively.Conclusions:The virtual simulation experiments for bone traction nursing of the lower limbs are scientific, professional, and interesting and have a relatively high degree of satisfaction among students, and therefore, they can be applied in the education of nursing students and the continuing education of nurses.

OBJECTIVE: To explore clinical rules based on the big data of the emergency department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, and to establish an integrated platform for clinical research in emergency, which was finally applied to clinical practice. METHODS: Based on the hospital information system (HIS), laboratory information system (LIS), emergency specialty system, picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) and electronic medical record system of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, the structural and unstructured information of patients in the emergency department from March 2019 to April 2022 was extracted. By means of extraction and fusion, normalization and desensitization quality control, the database was established. In addition, data were extracted from the database for adult patients with pre screening triage level III and below who underwent emergency visits from March 2019 to April 2022, such as demographic characteristics, vital signs during pre screening triage, diagnosis and treatment characteristics, diagnosis and grading, time indicators, and outcome indicators, independent risk factors for poor prognosis in patients were analyzed. RESULTS: (1) The data of 338 681 patients in the emergency department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from March 2019 to April 2022 were extracted, including 15 modules, such as demographic information, triage information, visit information, green pass and rescue information, diagnosis information, medical record information, laboratory examination overview, laboratory information, examination information, microbiological information, medication information, treatment information, hospitalization information, chest pain management and stroke management. The database ensured data visualization and operability. (2) Total 140 868 patients with pre-examination and triage level III and below were recruited from the emergency department database. The gender, age, type of admission to the hospital, pulse, blood pressure, Glasgow coma scale (GCS) and other indicators of the patients were included. Taking emergency admission to operating room, emergency admission to intervention room, emergency admission to intensive care unit (ICU) or emergency death as poor prognosis, the poor prognosis prediction model for patients with pre-examination and triage level III and below was constructed. The receiver operator characteristic curve and forest map results showed that the model had good predictive efficiency and could be used in clinical practice to reduce the risk of insufficient emergency pre-examination and triage. CONCLUSIONS The establishment of high-quality clinical database based on big data in emergency department is conducive to mining the clinical value of big data, assisting clinical decision-making, and improving the quality of clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To analyze the prevalence of parturiophobia and its association with preferred mode of delivery in pregnant women in Changning District, Shanghai.Methods:A cross- sectional study was conducted among 1 560 pregnant women in the third trimester who had their antenatal examination in Changning Maternity and Infant Health Hospital from September 2020 to March 2021. Fear of childbirth was measured with a validated Chinese version of Wijma Delivery Expectancy/Experience Questionnaire version A (W-DEQ-A). Based on the W-DEQ-A scores, the participants were divided into two groups: non-clinical parturiophobia group [<85 scores, including mild (≤37 scores), moderate (38-65 scores) and severe (66-84 scores) parturiophobia] and clinical parturiophobia group (≥85 scores). Rank-sum test, Chi-square test and t-test were used for univariate analysis. Multivariate binary logistic regression was used to analyze the factors associated with fear of childbirth and its relationship with preferred mode of delivery. Results:The detection rates of mild, moderate, severe and clinical parturiophobia were 18.8% (294/1 560), 44.9% (700/1 560), 31.1% (485/1 560) and 5.2% (81/1 560), respectively. Multivariate binary logistic regression showed that the participants who were supported by relatives and friends to have cesarean section ( OR=3.45, 95% CI: 1.29-9.22) or had antenatal anxiety ( OR=4.73, 95% CI: 2.49-8.97) were more likely to have clinical parturiophobia, while those with planned pregnancy ( OR=0.49, 95% CI: 0.29-0.82), high intensity physical activity ( OR=0.36, 95% CI: 0.18-0.72) or better/well understanding of the delivery process ( OR=0.42, 95% CI: 0.19-0.97) were less likely to develop clinical parturiophobia (all P<0.05). Compared with the non-clinical parturiophobia women, those with clinical parturiophobia were more likely to choose cesarean section ( OR=2.15, 95% CI: 1.22-3.78, P=0.008). Conclusions:The detection rates of severe and clinical parturiophobia are 31.1% and 5.2% in Changning District, Shanghai. The associated factors mainly include the attitudes of relatives and friends towards the mode of delivery, antenatal anxiety, planned pregnancy or not, physical activity level and the understanding of delivery process. Clinical parturiophobia might be an important factor for cesarean section on maternal request.

Objective:To evaluate the predictive value of mechanical power (MP) on the risk of in-hospital mortality in critical ill patients in emergency department.Methods:A total of 105 critical ill patients with invasive mechanical ventilation in the Department of Emergency of Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University between December 1, 2017 and October 31, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Based on the clinical prognosis, the patients were divided into the in-hospital survival group (80 patients) and the in-hospital death group (25 patients). The clinical data and ventilator parameters were recorded, and the MP of the two groups was calculated in order to assess the predictive efficacy of MP on in-hospital death.Results:Compared to the in-hospital death group, the oxygenation index PaO 2/FiO 2 was significantly higher (271 mmHg vs. 217 mmHg, P=0.020) and blood lactate (1.59 mmol/L vs. 2.56 mmol/L, P<0.001) and procalcitonin (0.31 ng/mL vs. 3.55 ng/mL, P=0.028), minute ventilation (7.03 L/min vs.8.32 mmol/L, P=0.013), MP (14.37 J/min vs. 16.12 J/min, P=0.041), SOFA score (5 vs. 8, P=0.001) and APACHE II score (16 vs. 22, P=0.041) were significantly lower in the in-hospital survival group. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that PaO 2/FiO 2( OR=1.015, P=0.044), MP ( OR=1.813, P=0.039) and SOFA score( OR=2.651, P=0.010) were independent risk factors for predicting hospital mortality in patients with mechanical ventilation. The areas under the ROC curves (AUC) were 0.62, 0.63 and 0.75, respectively. Moreover, the MP combined with SOFA score for predicting in-hospital death was significantly higher than that of MP alone (0.77 vs. 0.63, P<0.05). Conclusions:MP is associated with in-hospital death in patients with invasive mechanical ventilation in emergency department. MP combined with SOFA score can enhance its predictive efficacy

Methods:By referring to domestic and foreign literature related to dysphagia, combining with the specialty characteristics of oral cancer and the clinical experience of experts, a preliminary consensus was formed through in-depth interviews with experts. A total of 21 experts were selected for three rounds of expert letter consultation and expert meeting, the corresponding items were sorted out, analyzed and modified based on expert opinions, and the Consensus was finally formed. Results:The effective recovery rates of the three rounds of correspondence were 100.00% (21/21) , the expert authority coefficient was 0.91, the variation coefficient of each item was 0.04-0.20, and Kendall's harmony coefficient was 0.05 ( P<0.05) . The final consensus included four aspects, such as the effect of oral cancer on swallowing, the clinical manifestations of dysphagia, the basic procedures of screening and evaluation and the prevention and treatment of complications during evaluation. Conclusions:This Consensus is scientific and practical, which can provide clinical guidance for the screening and evaluation of dysphagia in the whole cycle of oral cancer.

Objective:To explore the epidemiological characteristics of Streptococcus pyogenes, namely β-hemolytic Group A Streptococcus (GAS) in children in Shenzhen. Methods:Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) data on the epidemic clonal population of GAS infection in children in Shenzhen Children′s Hospital from January 2016 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.In the present study, 32 GAS strains belonging to 7 different emm types were from 32 children′s with impetigo, cellulitis, scarlet fever, sepsis, pneumonia, obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome, bronchitis, allergy with rhinitis, buttock abscess, allergic purpura or pharyngeal tonsillitis, which were isolated from 23 throat swabs, 5 sputum samples, 3 pus and 1 blood.Using polymerase chain reaction technology, 7 pairs of allelic housekeeping genes ( gki, gtr, murI, mutS, recP, xpt and yqiL) of 32 GAS isolates were analyzed, and the target gene products were subjected to sequencing.Then the obtained gene sequences of each allele were submitted to the MLST database to obtain the allele profile.Finally, the allele profiles were introduced in the MLST database again to confirm the sequence typing (ST). Results:The GAS clone groups of emm 1.00 and its subtypes, emm 4.00, emm 12.00 and its subtypes, emm 22.00, emm 28.00, emm 75.00, and emm 89.00 belonged to the sequence typing ST28, ST39, ST36, ST46, ST52, ST49, and ST921, respectively. Conclusions:From 2016 to 2018, the MLST clone populations of GAS isolates causing infections in children in Shenzhen are classified as ST28, ST39, ST36, ST46, ST52, ST49 and ST921.

Objective:To evaluate the left ventricular diastolic dyssynchrony (LVDD) and its influencing factors early after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) using phase analysis of SPECT gated myocardial perfusion imaging (GMPI).Methods:Bama miniature swines ( n=16) were subjected to establish AMI models. GMPI was performed before and 1 d after AMI to obtain the extent of myocardial perfusion defect (Extent, %) and left ventricular systolic dyssynchrony (LVSD)/LVDD parameters, namely the phase histogram bandwidth (PBW) and phase standard deviation (PSD). Meanwhile, left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and the ratio of early to late peak mitral diastolic flow (E/A) were obtained by echocardiography. Independent-sample t test, paired t test and Pearson correlation analysis were used to analyze the data. Results:Sixteen AMI swines were successfully created. Compared to baseline, Extent, LVEDV and LVESV significantly increased on 1 d after AMI ( t values: -11.14, -4.55, -6.12, all P<0.001), while LVEF and E/A significantly decreased ( t values: 10.16, 2.18, P<0.001, P=0.046). GMPI showed that the LVDD parameters PBW and PSD increased significantly on 1 d after AMI when compared to those at baseline((142.25±72.06)° vs (33.06±8.98)°, (56.15±26.71)° vs (12.51±5.13)°; t values: -6.11, -6.60, both P<0.001). There were significant differences between LVSD parameters and LVDD parameters (PBW: (109.06±62.40)° vs (142.25±72.06)°, PSD: (44.40±25.61)° vs (56.15±26.71)°; t values: -2.73, -2.20, P values: 0.016, 0.044). LVDD parameters PBW, PSD were negatively correlated with E/A after AMI ( r values: -0.569, -0.566, P values: 0.021, 0.022), and positively correlated with the Extent ( r values: 0.717, 0.634, P values: 0.002, 0.008). The phase analysis of SPECT GMPI to evaluate LVDD showed good intra-observer and inter-observe reproducibility (intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC): 0.953-0.984, all P<0.001). Conclusions:LVDD occurs early on 1 d after AMI, and can reflect left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. The Extent is correlated with LVDD significantly. Phase analysis of SPECT GMPI is an accurate method to evaluate LVDD and left ventricular diastolic function.

Objective:To investigate the differences in the expression of microRNA (miR)-216a and its target gene SerpinB5 at the tissue level, and the effects of miR-216a on the proliferation of different liver cancer cells by regulating the expression of SerpinB5.Methods:Through bioinformatics prediction and selection of miR-216a that regulated SerpinB5. the expressions in liver cancer and normal tissues were detected by real time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The miR-216a simulacrum and inhibitor, si-Serpinb5 and pcdna3.1-Serpinb5 to HepG2 and MHCC97H (97H) were transfected with liposomes, respectively. Real time PCR and Wester-Blot were used to detect the expression of miR-216a and SerpinB5 before and after transfection, and CCK8 was used to detect the influence of both on the proliferation of liver cancer cells.Results:The expression of miR-216a in human liver cancer tissues was higher than that in adjacent tissues, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.01). The expression of SerpinB5 in human liver cancer tissues was lower than that adjacent tissues, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.01). In HepG2 and 97H, miR-216a inhibitor and SerpinB5 overexpression group showed down-regulated miR-216a expression, which was statistically different from the control group ( P < 0.01). The proliferation of miR-216a inhibitor and pcdna3.1-serpinb5 group was lower than the control group, with statistically significant differences ( P < 0.01). Conclusions:The high expression of SerpinB5 can inhibit the proliferation of liver cancer cells, suggesting that SerpinB5 may have an anti-oncogene effect. MiR-216a may negatively regulate the expression of SerpinB5 and affect the proliferation of HCC cells.

Sarcopenia is characterized by a loss of skeletal muscle mass and a decrease in muscle strength and function.The major etiological factors of sarcopenia include lack of exercise,decline of neuromuscular function,malnutrition and so on.Sarcopenia is associated with decreased numbers and function of muscle stem cells(also known as satellite cells).Muscle stem cells have a strong ability of self-renewal,with multi-potency,immune privilege,and antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and are capable of promoting skeletal muscle regeneration.The mechanisms underlying cell proliferation,differentiation and self-renewal of satellite cells are not clear,but the number and activity of satellite cells are related to sarcopenia.Satellite cells work together with a variety of proliferation and differentiation factors to regulate muscle cell formation and muscle repair.Especially noteworthy is that p38α binds to a large number of myogenic gene promoters to regulate the proliferation and differentiation of satellite cells.In animal experiments,muscle stem cell therapy has shown regeneration and repair of muscle cells.Studies on changes at the molecular and gene levels in muscle fibers and their environment will be of great significance for the prevention and treatment of muscular disorders in the elderly.

Objectives To investigate clinical features and the risk factors for 30-day death in elderly chest pain patients.Methods In the prospective study,514 patients with acute chest pain leading to emergency department visit were selected from March 2012-August 2010 and grouped into elderly group (aged≥65 years,n=309) and non-elderly group (aged< 65 years,n=205).The patient's clinical data during 30-day follow-up period were recorded for analysis and comparison.Multivariate regression analysis was used to investigate the risk factors of death.Results Among 514 cases with acute chest pain,30(5.8%)patients with all-cause death included 24 cases in group of 309 (7.8%) elderly patients and 6 (2.9%) cases in group of 205 non-elderly patients during 30 day follow-up period.Univariate regression analysis showed that female,low SBP,Killips' classification ≥ Ⅱ,high level of serum troponin T and creatinine,coronary artery ischemia were more likely to died during 30 day follow-up period.And female and Killips' classification ≥ Ⅱwere the independent factor for 30-day death in the elderly[OR:3.55 (95%CI:1.00-12.59) and 5.90 (95%CI:1.31-26.63)]respectively.Conclusions Elderly patients with acute chest pain for first emergency department visit are at high risk for 30-day death.Female and cardiac function Killips' classification ≥ Ⅱ,high levels of serum troponin T and creatinine and coronary artery ischemia are associated with 30-day death in patients with acute chest pain for first emergency visit.Female and Killips' classification ≥ Ⅱare the independent risk factor for 30-day death.
