Objective:To explore the effects of staged thematic painting therapy on positive emotions, alexithymia and self-efficacy in children with emotional disorders.Methods:This was a quasi-experimental study. By convenient sampling, 61 children with emotional disorders admitted from January 2022 to December 2022 to the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychology, Affiliated Psychological Hospital of Anhui Medical University were selected as the research objects, 31 patients admitted from January 2022 to June 2022 were listed as the control group and 30 patients admitted from July 2022 to December 2022 were listed as the observation group according to the time of admission.The control group was given routine psychiatric care, and the observation group was given staged thematic painting therapy on this basis. The intervention time was 6 weeks. The intervention effect was evaluated by Positive and Negative Affect Scale,Toronto Alexithymia Scale, and General Self-Efficacy Scale.Results:There were 15 males and 16 females in the control group, aged (14.19 ± 1.79) years old. There were 13 males and 17 females in the observation group, aged (14.47 ± 1.55) years old. The difference in baseline data between the two groups was not statistically significant ( P>0.05) and was comparable. There was no significant difference in the score of positive emotions, alexithymia and self-efficacy before intervention between the two groups (all P>0.05). After intervention, the scores of positive emotions and self-efficacy in the observation group were (43.20±7.41), (31.88 ± 5.42) points, which were higher than those in the control group (33.81 ± 6.92), (21.24 ± 5.41) points, the differences were statistically significant ( t=-6.19, -5.63, both P<0.05). After intervention, the scores of alexithymia in the observation group was (53.44 ± 4.68) points, which was lower than that in the control group (60.44 ± 5.52) points, the difference was statistically significant ( t=-8.72, P<0.05). Conclusions:Staged thematic painting therapy can effectively improve the positive emotions, self-efficacy and alexithymia level of children with emotional disorders, help the patients establish confidence to overcome the disease. It is valuable in clinical practice.

Objective:To analyze the effect of different gastric mucosa preparation programs on the quality of painless gastroscopy, so as to provide reference for developing mucosal preparation programs.Methods:This was a prospective, randomized controlled study. A total of 150 patients with painless gastroscopy from March 2021 to December 2022 in Shanxi Yuncheng Central Hospital were selected by convenience sampling in this study, they were assigned to control group, water group, and soda water group by random digits table method, each group contained 50 patients. All patients received oral administration of pronase + dimeticone + sodium bicarbonate solution. In addition, control group: prohibited from drinking 4 hours before examination; water group: drinking 200 ml of pure water 2 hours before examination; and soda water group: drinking 200 ml of soda water 2 hours before examination. The clarity score of gastric mucosa and the detection rate of small lesions were compared among the three groups.Results:There were 28 males and 22 females in the control group, aged (47.62 ± 13.83) years old. There were 30 males and 20 females in the water group, aged (44.68 ± 13.61) years old. There were 24 males and 26 females in the soda water group, aged (46.92 ± 12.79) years old. The difference of esophagus, gastric body, gastric antrum and total mucosal clarity scores among the three groups were statistically significant ( F values were 3.68-25.75, all P<0.05). Multiple comparison showed that the esophagus, gastric antrum and total mucosal clarity scores were (1.87 ± 0.58), (1.37 ± 0.34), (6.72 ± 0.92) points in the control group, which were higher than (1.47 ± 0.41), (1.18 ± 0.31), (5.97 ± 0.86) points in the water group, and (1.42 ± 0.41), (1.02 ± 0.22), (5.50 ± 0.79) points in the soda water group, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.67-5.95, all P<0.05). The gastric antrum and total mucosal clarity scores in the water group were higher than in the soda water group, the differences were statistically significant ( t=7.11, 2.71, both P<0.05). The gastric body mucosal clarity score was (1.98 ± 0.74) points in the control group, which was higher than (1.64 ± 0.54) points in the soda water group, the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.66, P<0.05). The gastroscopy examination time and flushin times were (135.20 ± 21.60) s and (1.37 ± 0.43) times in the control group, while (115.52 ± 14.74) s, (0.90 ± 0.29) times and (107.48 ± 13.02) s, (0.62 ± 0.23) times in the water group and soda water group, the control group was higher than the water group and the soda water group, and the water group was also higher than the soda water group, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.38-11.40, all P<0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the detection rate of small lesions among the three groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Drinking soda water 2 hours before painless gastroscopy can significantly improve the clarity of patients′gastric mucosa, shorten the examination time and reduce flushing times, but it does not improve the detection rate of small lesions.

Objective:To explore the effect of nursing intervention based on information-knowledge-attitude-practice model (IKAP) in preventing radiodermatitis in tumor radiotherapy patients.Methods:This was a quasi-experimental study. A total of 72 patients who received radiotherapy in the Department of Oncology, the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from August to October 2022 were selected and divided into the experimental group and the control group with 36 patients in each group by randomized digits table method. The control group received routine nursing, while the experimental group received nursing based on the IKAP. The self-management efficacy, radiodermatitis, self-perceived burden and quality of life of patients in the two groups were evaluated one day before and at the end of radiotherapy.Results:Thirty-five patients from each group completed the study. There were 11 males and 24 females in the control group, aged (58.09 ± 7.33) years old. There were 13 males and 22 females in the experimental group, aged (58.06 ± 7.28) years old.There was no statistically significant difference in self-management efficacy, self-perceived burden, and quality of life scores between the two groups of patients before intervention (all P>0.05). After intervention, the self-management efficacy,self-perceived burden, and quality of life scores of the experimental group were (106.89 ± 3.78), (18.69 ± 2.21), and (8.09 ± 1.27) points, respectively, the control group was (80.69 ± 5.76), (29.97 ± 2.48), and (15.91 ± 2.37) points, respectively. The differences between the two groups were statistically significant ( t=2.50, 1.12, 7.24, all P<0.01). The incidence of radiodermatitis above grade 2 in the experimental group was 31.4%(12/35), which was lower than 60.0%(21/35) in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=4.64, P<0.01). Conclusions:Nursing intervention based on IKAP can improve the self-management efficacy, reduce the self-perceived burden and the incidence of radiodermatitis, and further improve the quality of life of tumor radiotherapy patients.

Objective:To compare the dynamic changes of transcutaneous partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PtCO 2) and treatment effect of non-invasive intermittent nebulization and non-invasive simultaneous nebulization in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods:This was a randomized parallel controlled trial study. A total of 70 patients with acute exacerbation of COPD in Changzhou First People′s Hospital from October 2021 to September 2022 were selected by convenience sampling method, and divided into control group and experimental group by randomized digits table method with 35 cases in each group. The control group was given non-invasive intermittent oxygen-driven nebulization, and the experimental group was given non-invasive simultaneous oxygen-driven nebulization. The PtCO 2 values at 0, 5, 10, 15 min (the end point of atomization) of the 2 groups were observed, the daily arterial blood gas analysis indexes (mainly including PaCO 2, PaO 2 and pH) were recorded, and the clinical pulmonary infection score and the self-assessment score of COPD patients were recorded before treatment, on the 4th and 7th day of treatment. Results:Finally, 33 patients were included in both the control group and the experimental group. There were 25 males and 8 females in the control group, aged (75.33 ± 8.24) years old. There were 25 males and 8 females in the experimental group, aged (72.39 ± 8.56) years old. The PtCO 2 values at 0, 5, 10, 15 min in the control group were (63.83 ± 12.47), (64.40 ± 12.57), (65.42 ± 13.77), (66.62 ± 14.59) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa). There were statistically significant differences in PtCO 2 at all time points ( F=8.05, P<0.01). Further pairwise comparison by Sidak method showed that there were statistically significant differences in PtCO 2 at 15 min compared with 0, 5, 10 min (all P<0.05). The PtCO 2 values at 0, 5, 10, 15 min in the experimental group were (67.62 ± 11.89), (67.15 ± 12.12), (67.82 ± 12.22), (68.15 ± 12.09) mmHg. There was no statistically significant difference in PtCO 2 at all time points ( F=2.00, P>0.05). The PaCO 2 and pH value of the two groups were improved with the treatment time, the control group had a statistically significant difference on the 4th day of treatment compared with before treatment ( P<0.05), while the experimental group on the second day of treatment compared with before treatment ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Both kinds of nebulization have achieved good therapeutic effects, but non-invasive simultaneous nebulization can better maintain the stability of PtCO 2 in the process of nebulization with higher safety, and can improve the arterial blood gas index PaCO 2 and pH value of patients earlier, which is a more suitable nebulization method for the combination of non-invasive ventilation and nebulization, especially for patients with hypercapnia.

A total of 74 patients with lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy in Jinshan Hospital of Fudan University from February 2021 to July 2022 were selected as the research object by convenient sampling method. They were divided into two groups according to their admission time, 37 cases of patients from February to August 2021 for the control group, using conventional nursing interventions, 37 cases of patients from September 2021 to July 2022 for the observation group, with multi-disciplinary nutrition support team. A follow-up was conducted for three chemotherapy cycles, serum nutrition indicators and quality of life were compared between the two groups.Results:There were 27 males and 10 females in the control group, aged (68.14 ± 6.82) years old. There were 30 males and 7 females in the observation group, aged (65.92 ± 9.17) years old. There was no significant difference in the serum nutrition indicators and quality of life before intervention between the two groups (all P>0.05). The serum total protein, albumin and prealbumin levels in the observation group were (69.41 ± 5.87), (38.11 ± 4.04) g/L, and (243.57 ± 67.58) mg/L, which were higher than those in the control group (65.54 ± 8.33), (35.78 ± 5.39) g/L, and (200.84 ± 60.84) mg/L, the differences were statistically significant ( t=-2.31, -2.10, -2.86, all P<0.05). After intervention, the observation group showed higher scores for emotional function and overall health/life quality, with (88.29 ± 16.72), (60.36 ± 13.24) points, compared to the control group with (76.80 ± 17.58), (46.40 ± 16.38) points. The scores for fatigue, nausea/vomiting, insomnia, and loss of appetite were (34.53 ± 22.19), (11.26 ± 8.83), (20.72 ± 16.39), (24.32 ± 18.67) points in the observation group, which were lower than the scores in the control group (45.65 ± 22.95), (25.68 ± 18.67), (36.94 ± 23.29), (40.54 ± 22.41) points, all the differences were statistically significant ( t values were -4.03-4.24, all P<0.05). Conclusions:During chemotherapy in lung cancer patients, the multidisciplinary nutrition support team has been shown to significantly improve the patients′ nutritional status and enhance their quality of life.

Objective:Based on the needs of advanced nursing practice development, to establish an indicator system of role function of position of oncology genetic nurses suitable for our national condition, and to provide a basis for position establishing of nocology genetic nurses.Methods:Initial indexes were generated through the literature review and semi-structured interviews. From September to December 2022, two rounds of expert consultations and analytic hierarchy process were conducted to establish the evaluation index for role function of position of oncology genetic nurses.Results:A total of 43 experts were included in the study, the response rates of 2 rounds were 93.62%(44/47) and 97.73%(43/44), and the authority coefficients of the experts were 0.821 and 0.853. The Kendall′s coefficients of concordance for the 2 rounds of consultations were 0.100-0.150 (all P<0.01) and 0.101-0.237 (all P<0.01). Finally, the role function system of position for oncology genetic nurses was formed, which consisted of 5 first-level indexes, 17 second-level indexes and 86 third-level indexes. Conclusions:The system of role function of position for oncology genetic nurses is reasonable, scientific and reliable, professional and specific, which can provide a theoretical reference for the development of advanced nursing practice on hereditary oncology in China.

Objective:To retrieve, evaluate and integrate the best evidence of blood glucose management in hemodialysis patients with end-stage diabetic kidney disease, so as to provide a basis for clinical evidence-based nursing practice.Methods:BMJ Best Clinical Practice, Cochrane, OVID, Scopus, UpToDate, CNKI, Wanfang Database, Medical Pulse database, and other guideline networks and professional association websites and databases were searched for blood glucose management in hemodialysis patients with end-stage diabetic kidney disease. The search time limit was from the establishment of the database to May 10, 2023.Results:A total of 14 articles were included, including 1 clinical decision, 5 guidelines, 6 systematic reviews, 1 randomized controlled trial, and 1 expert consensus. The best evidences for blood glucose management in hemodialysis patients were summarized, including 8 aspects of pre-dialysis assessment, pre-dialysis blood glucose management, blood glucose management during dialysis, blood glucose management during dialysis interval, diet and nutrition, exercise management, lifestyle intervention and health education, with 25 pieces of evidence.Conclusions:This study summarizes the best evidence of blood glucose management in hemodialysis patients with end-stage diabetic kidney disease, and provides evidence-based basis for clinical practice for medical staff.

Objective:To investigate the current status and influencing factors of care preparedness in primary caregivers of children with acute leukemia, so as to provide theoretical basis for targeted nursing intervention plans in the future.Methods:A total of 160 primary caregivers of children with acute leukemia in Hematology Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences recruited by convenient sampling were investigated by the general data questionnaire, the Preparedness for Caregiving Scale, the Herth Hope Index, the Family Caregiver Task Inventory and the Mishel Uncertainty in Illness Scale-Family Member Form. Descriptive analysis, Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, Spearman rank correlation and multiple stepwise liner regression were used for statistical analysis. Results:One hundred and fifty-nine questionnaires were effectively collected, including 13 males and 146 females, aged (34.61 ± 8.60) years old. The total score of care preparedness, hope, uncertainty in illness, care ability for caregivers were (26.47 ± 7.53), (37.72 ± 4.11), (61.96 ± 17.02), (15.06 ± 12.94) points. The total score of care preparedness for caregivers was negatively correlated with the score of uncertainty in illness( r=-0.300, P<0.05), and positively correlated with the hope and care ability of main caregivers ( r=0.166, 0.254, both P<0.05). Caregivers′ uncertainty in illness, caregiver gender, availability of other caregivers, caregivers′ hope entered the multiple stepwise regression equation, which could explain 20.4% of the total variation of resilience. Conclusions:The preparation of the primary caregivers for children with acute leukemia is at a medium level. The primary caregivers who are male, who have insufficient knowledge of the disease, who have no co-caregivers, and who have low hope level should be focused on in clinical practice. Pertinent measures should be taken to improve care preparedness and care quality.

Objective:To investigate the current status of maternal body image during pregnancy, mother-infant attachment and postpartum depression and explore the mediating effect of mother-infant attachment on maternal body image during pregnancy and postpartum depression, in order to effectively reduce the incidence of postpartum depression and provide reference and guidance for alleviating depressive symptoms.Methods:A total of 362 pregnant women admitted to obstetric wards in Women′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were selected for a cross-sectional investigation by applying the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale, the Body Image in Pregnancy Scale and the Maternal Postnatal Attachment Scale by convenient sampling from July to September 2022. Model 4 in the SPSS macro program PROCESS was used to test the mediating effect of maternal infant attachment between body image and postpartum depression.Results:Totally 362 valid questionnaires were retrieved including 194 individuals aged ≤30 years old and 168 individuals aged >30 years old. The scores of maternal body image during pregnancy, mother-infant attachment and postpartum depression were (89.24 ± 15.56), (71.40 ± 8.05), 7.50 (4.00, 11.00) points.Conclusions:Body image during pregnancy can not only directly predict postpartum depression, but also indirectly predict postpartum depression through the mediating effect of mother-infant attachment. In order to prevent or reduce the occurrence of postpartum depression, nursing staff should carry out intervention research based on influencing the path of postpartum depression from the perspective of positive psychology.
