Objective:To summarize the best evidence for exercise intervention in elderly patients with sarcopenia in intensive care unit (ICU) through literature search, and provide a reference for clinical implementation of early exercise intervention in this population through evidence-based practice.Methods:① Summary of best evidence: relevant literature on exercise intervention for elderly patients with sarcopenia in ICU, including guideline, evidence summary, expert consensus, systematic review, and original study [quasi-experiment and randomized controlled trial (RCT)] from UpToDate Clinical Advisor, Ovid database, National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC), National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), Cochrane Library, Embase, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), PubMed/Medline, SinoMed, CNKI, Wanfang Database, VIP, and Yimai Tong Guideline Network were systematically searched. The search period covered from the establishment of these databases up to August 24, 2023. The quality of the literature was evaluated by two researchers with methodological expertise in evidence-based medicine, and the evidences were extracted and summarized. ② Evidence-based practice: the elderly patients with high risk of sarcopenia who had been hospitalized in the ICU for more than 7 days from January to April 2024 were enrolled as the research subjects, and they were divided into a control group and an intervention group using convenience sampling method. The control group received routine intensive care nursing. The intervention group implemented exercise intervention based on the actual situation of the patients, the baseline review was conducted before evidence application, and the effectiveness of evidence application at 7 days and 14 days was evaluated.Results:① A total of 19 pieces of literature were included, including 4 guidelines, 1 summary of evidence, 4 expert consensuses, 4 systematic reviews, and 6 original studies (1 quasi-experiment, 5 RCT). After literature quality evaluation, all 19 articles were enrolled. Finally, 31 pieces of best evidence were extracted from eight aspects, including assessment and diagnosis, multidisciplinary cooperation, indication, preparation before intervention, intervention program, safety monitoring, post-intervention evaluation, and special task. ② Finally, a total of 30 patients were enrolled in the intervention group, of which 17 completed 14 days of rehabilitation exercise, and 13 completed 7 days of rehabilitation exercise. Twenty-seven patients were enrolled in the control group, of which 17 completed 14 days of monitoring, and 10 completed 7 days of monitoring. Clinical evidence application results showed that the patients in the intervention group did not experience adverse events such as increased heart rate, extubation, or physical discomfort. The skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) in both groups was gradually decreased with the prolongation of intervention duration, but the 7-day SMI in the intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group (kg/m 2: 8.61±2.66 vs. 6.65±1.50, P < 0.01). Conclusion:By summarizing the best evidence and evidence-based practice of exercise intervention for elderly patients with sarcopenia in ICU, this study confirmed the feasibility due to safe and effective of implementing early exercise intervention for elderly sarcopenia patients in ICU.

Objective:To explore the effect of previous intestinal resection on anastomotic fistula within 30 days after surgery in Crohn′s disease.Methods:The clinical data from 92 Crohn′s disease patients who underwent intestinal resection and anastomosis at the Department of General Surgery in Shanghai Ninth People′s Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from Jan 2016 to Sep 2019. Patients were divided into no previous intestinal resection group ( n=45) and previous intestinal resection group ( n=47). The relationship between previous intestinal resection and postoperative anastomotic leak in Crohn′s disease patients with intestinal resection and anastomosis was analyzed. Results:A total of 11 cases (12% leak rate) underwent postoperative anastomotic leak. There were 2 leaks in patients with no previous history of intestinal resection, while 9 leaks in patients with previous bowel resection (χ 2 =4.722, P=0.03). The OR of the postoperative anastomotic leak in Crohn′s disease patients with previous intestinal resection compared with no previous intestinal resection group was 5.092 (95% CI: 1.035-25.048). Patients with 1 previous resection (24 cases) had a leak rate of 13%, whereas patients with >1 previous resection episodes (23 cases) had a leak rate of 26%. The number of previous resection episodes correlated with an increasing risk for clinical anastomotic leak (correlation coefficien r=0.995). Conclusions:Previous intestinal resection is an independent risk factor for ensuing postoperative anastomotic leak in Crohn′s disease patients with intestinal resection and anastomosis.

Objective: To introduce the methods for sensitivity analysis, discuss and compare the advantages and disadvantages of different methods. Methods: The difference between confounding function method and bounding factor method in accuracy of identifying unmeasured confounding factors in observational studies through simulation trials and actual clinical data was compared. Results: The results of simulation trials and actual clinical data showed that when there was unmeasured confounding between exposure (X) and outcome (Y), the results of confounding function and the bounding factor analysis were similar in terms of the effect of unmeasured confounding factor to lead to the complete change of the magnitude and direction of the observed effect value. However, the confounding function method needed smaller confounding effect to fully interpret the observed effect value than the bounding factor needed. In addition, the bounding factor method needed to analyze two confounding parameters, while only one parameter was needed in the confounding function method. The confounding function method was simpler and more sensitive than the bounding factor method. Conclusion For real-world observational data, the sensitivity analysis process is essential in analyzing the causal effects between exposure (X) and outcome (Y). In terms of the calculation process and result interpretation the sensitivity analysis method of confounding function is worth to recommend.

Objective? To explore the effect of quality control circle activities on improving the correct rate of nursing orders for critically ill patients. Methods? A total of 21 senior responsible nurses in ICU, Cardiology Department (CCU), Cerebrovascular Disease Specialty and Respiratory Department of the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University were selected as the research objects. Meanwhile, 434 critically ill patients admitted in the above four departments in April 2018 were selected as the pre-activity group of quality control circle. The 419 critically ill patients admitted in October 2018 were compared and analyzed in the post-qcc group. The correct rate of nursing orders of critically ill patients, the qualified rate of basic nursing, posture nursing, the incidence of pressure sores, falls or falling out of bed, and incontinence related dermatitis, the mastery rate of senior responsible nurses on assessment knowledge and the time required for the first nursing order to be issued, the mastery rate of disease condition of critical patients by responsible nurses, and the comprehensive literacy scores of members of quality control circle team before and after quality control circle activities were compared. Results? After QCC activities, the correct rate of nursing orders for critical patients, the qualified rate of basic nursing and postural nursing, the mastery rate of senior responsible nurses' knowledge of assessment and the mastery rate of nurses' conditions for critical patients were significantly higher than those before QCC activities, and the time needed for the first nurses' orders was less than that before QCC activities, with statistical difference (P＜ 0.01). The incidence of pressure ulcers, falls or falling out of bed, and incontinence related dermatitis was lower than that before the activity, with no significantly statistical difference (P＞ 0.05). After the activity, the nurses' abilities of quality control, team cohesion, sense of responsibility, coordination and communication, self-confidence and quality improvement were all improved, with statistical difference (P＜ 0.01). Conclusions? The management based on the quality control circle can effectively improve the correct rate of nursing orders for critically ill patients, improve the nursing quality of critically ill patients, the working efficiency and overall literacy of nurses.

Objective: To study the effect of CS2 on dendritic cells (DCs) in the uterus and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor(fms-like tyrosine kinase-1, Flt-1), and to explore the toxic mechanism of CS2-induced embryo implantation dysfunction. Methods: The Kunming mice were randomly divided into control group,gestational day 4(GD4) exposure group and GD5 exposure group. The endpoints of each group(GD5, GD6, GD7) was set up according to their respective exposure time points. The mice in the exposure group were given intraperitoneal injection of CS2 at an injection dose of 631.4 mg/kg and the control group was given olive oil. The effect of CS2 on DCs in the uterus of pregnant mice was observed by flow cytometry. The levels of VEGF and Flt-1 were measured by Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: In the GD4 and GD5 exposure groups, the number of DCs in the uterus of pregnant mice decreased at all endpoints and the GD5 endpoint in the GD4 exposure group decreased by 21%(P=0.039), when compared with the control group. In the GD4 exposure group, the levels of VEGF mRNA and protein in the uterus of the pregnant mice were 79% and 30% lower than those in the control group, respectively (P=0.03、P=0.017); the levels of Flt-1 mRNA and protein at the endpoints of GD6 and GD7 in the uterus decreased by 54%, 36%, 60% and 56%, respectively, when compared with the control group(P=0.017、P=0.012、P=0.004、P=0.007). In the GD5 exposure group, the levels of VEGF mRNA and protein in the uterus of pregnant mice at the endpoint of GD7 decreased by 62% and 36%, when compared with the control group (P=0.005、P=0.035); the levels of Flt-1 mRNA and protein in the uterus at the endpoint of GD7 decreased by 60% and 44%, respectively, when compared with the control group (P=0.004、P=0.009). Conclusion CS2 reduced the number of DCs in the uterus of pregnant mice, and affected the non-immune function of DCs, which affected uterine angiogenesis, this may be one of the mechanisms of CS2-induced embryo implantation dysfunction.
