Objective To develop a health-promoting lifestyle scale for women with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS),and to test its reliability and validity,and preliminarily apply it.Methods Based on the Pender health promotion model,the item pool of the scale was constructed through literature research,semi-structured interviews and group discussions.After 2 rounds of Delphi expert consultation and pre-survey,the initial scale was formed.From April to July 2022,316 patients with PCOS in the health management center,reproductive medicine center and endocrinology department of a tertiary hospital in Nanjing were selected for item analysis,exploratory factor analysis and reliability test,respectively.From August to October 2022,358 PCOS patients were selected for confirmatory factor analysis.From November 2022 to February 2013,294 PCOS patients were selected,and the scale was used to investigate the status of health-promoting lifestyle in PCOS patients.Results The health-promoting lifestyle scale for PCOS patients included 5 dimensions and 33 items.The total content validity index of the scale was 0.942,and the content validity index of each item was 0.810-1.000.5 common factors were extracted by 2 exploratory factor analyses,and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 62.399％.Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the model fit was good.The Cronbach's a coefficient of the total scale was 0.930;the split-half reliability was 0.842;the test-retest reliability was 0.888.The preliminary application results showed that the total score of health-promoting lifestyle in PCOS patients was(96.925±14.273),and the average score of items was(2.937±0.433),which was at a medium level.Conclusion The health-promoting lifestyle scale for PCOS patients has good reliability and validity,which can be used as a tool for medical staff to assess the level of health-promoting lifestyle of PCOS patients,and can help nurses to quickly identify the level and dimensions of health-promoting lifestyle of patients,so as to formulate individualized precise health management plans.

Objective:To investigate the impact of the early infusion rate on prognosis and the factors of influencing the infusion rate in patients with severe burns and inhalation injury.Methods:This study was a retrospective case series research. From January 2015 to December 2020, 220 patients with severe burns and inhalation injury meeting the inclusion criteria were admitted to 7 burn treatment centers in China, including 13 cases in the Fourth People's Hospital of Dalian, 26 cases in the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University, 73 cases in Guangzhou Red Cross Hospital of Jinan University, 21 cases in the 924 th Hospital of PLA, 30 cases in the First Affiliated Hospital of Jiangxi Medical College of Nanchang University, 30 cases in Tongren Hospital of Wuhan University & Wuhan Third Hospital, and 27 cases in Zhengzhou First People's Hospital. There were 163 males and 57 females, and their ages ranged from 18 to 91 years. The patients were divided into survival group and death group according to the survival within 28 d post injury. The following data of patients in the 2 groups were collected, including basic information (gender, age, body weight, body temperature, etc.), the injury characteristics (total burn area, post-injury admission time, etc.), the underlying diseases, the post-injury fluid resuscitation condition (infusion rate and ratio of infused electrolyte solution to colloid solution in the first 24 h post injury, etc.), the results of laboratory tests on admission (blood urea nitrogen, blood creatinine, albumin, pH value, base excess, blood lactate, oxygenation index, etc.), and treatment condition (inhaled oxygen volume fraction, hospitalization day, renal replacement therapy, etc.). After adjusting covariates using univariate Cox regression analysis, the multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to evaluate the impact of infusion rate in the first 24 h post injury on patient death. The receiver operator characteristic curve for the infusion rate in the first 24 h post injury to predict the risk of death was plotted, and the maximum Youden index was calculated. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the cutoff value (2.03 mL·kg -1·% total body surface area (TBSA) -1) for predicting risk of death by the infusion rate in the first 24 h post injury determined by the maximum Youden index, and the risk of death was compared between the 2 groups. The correlation between the previously mentioned clinical data and the infusion rate in the first 24 h post injury was analyzed; after the univariate linear regression analysis was used to screen the independent variables, the multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to screen the independent influential factors on the infusion rate in the first 24 h post injury. Results:Compared with those in survival group, patients in death group had significantly higher age and total burn area (with Z values of 12.08 and 23.71, respectively, P<0.05), the infusion rate in the first 24 h post injury, inhaled oxygen volume fraction, and blood urea nitrogen, blood creatinine, blood lactic acid on admission (with Z values of 7.99, 4.01, 11.76, 23.24, and 5.97, respectively, P<0.05), and the proportion of patients treated with renal replacement therapy ( P<0.05) were significantly higher, the albumin, pH value, and base excess on admission were significantly lower ( t=2.72, with Z values of 8.18 and 9.70, respectively, P<0.05), and the hospitalization day was significantly reduced ( Z=85.47, P<0.05). After adjusting covariates, the infusion rate in the first 24 h post injury was the independent influential factor on death (with standardized hazard ratio of 1.69, 95% confidence interval of 1.21-2.37, P<0.05). Patients in infusion rate ≥2.03 mL·kg -1·%TBSA -1 group had a significantly higher risk of death than those in infusion rate <2.03 mL·kg -1·% TBSA -1 group (with hazard ratio of 3.47, 95% confidence interval of 1.48-8.13, P<0.05). There was a significant correlation between total burn area, body weight, inhaled oxygen volume fraction, body temperature, post-injury admission time, the ratio of infused electrolyte solution to colloid solution in the first 24 h post injury, and oxygenation index <300 on admission and the infusion rate in the first 24 h post injury (with r values of -0.192, -0.215, 0.137, -0.162, -0.252, and 0.314, respectively, Z=4.48, P<0.05). After screening the independent variables, total burn area, body weight, post-injury admission time, and oxygenation index <300 on admission were the independent influential factors on the infusion rate in the first 24 h post injury (with standardized β values of -0.22, -0.22, -0.19, and 0.46, respectively, 95% confidence intervals of -0.34 to 0.09, -0.34 to 0.10, -0.32 to 0.06, and 0.22 to 0.71, respectively, P<0.05). Conclusions:The infusion rate in the first 24 h post injury in patients with severe burns and inhalation injury is the independent factor of influencing death, and patients with infusion rate ≥2.03 mL·kg -1·%TBSA -1 in the first 24 h post injury have a significantly increased risk of death. The total burn area, body weight, post-injury admission time, and oxygenation index <300 on admission were the independent factors of influencing the infusion rate in the first 24 h post injury in patients with severe burns and inhalation injury.

Myocardial fibrosis is a common pathological manifestation of various heart diseases,with hidden onset and the possibility of evolving into irreversible heart failure.Currently,there is still insufficient diagnosis and treatment of myocardial fibrosis.Traditional Chinese medicine can regulate myocardial fibrosis at multiple levels,targets,and pathways,and has significant advantages in treating myocardial fibrosis.Its underlying mechanisms are worth further exploration.The theory of"yang generating qi,yin constituting the body"in Huangdi Neijing embodies the meaning of yin and yang,containing a profound outlook on life and disease.Pathological changes in the initial,progressive,and final stages of myocardial fibrosis conform to the yin-yang theory of"yang generating qi,yin constituting the body".Insufficient yang generating qi and excessive yin constituting the body constitutes the core pathogenesis of myocardial fibrosis.This article proposes a treatment approach for myocardial fibrosis by tonifying yang and abating yin.The treatment of warming yang,unblocking yang,removing blood stasis,resolving phlegm,detoxifying,and promoting diuresis is applied to broaden the clinical treatment approach for myocardial fibrosis.

Background and objective Lung cancer is the cancer with the highest incidence and mortality rates in China,and non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)accounts for 80％-85％of all malignant lung tumors.Currently,surgical treat-ment remains the primary treatment modality for lung cancer.In recent years,the effectiveness of immune checkpoint inhibi-tors for NSCLC has become a consensus,and neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy(nICT)has shown promising efficacy and safety in early to intermediate stage NSCLC.However,there are fewer studies related to nICT for locally advanced NSCLC.This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nICT therapy in locally advanced resectable NSCLC.Methods 85 con-firmed resectable stage ⅢA and ⅢB patients treated in the Department of Thoracic Surgery,Second Hospital of Lanzhou University,from January 2021 to April 2024,were divided into the nICT group(n=32)and the surgery alone group(n=53).Clinical baseline data,perioperative indicators,postoperative complications,imaging response rate,pathological response rate,incidence of adverse events,and quality of life were compared between the two groups.Results There were no statisti-cally significant differences in clinical baseline data between the two groups(P＞0.05).Incidence of choosing thoracotomy was higher in the nICT group than in the surgery alone group(P=0.002).There were no significant differences in surgical time,intraoperative blood loss,number of dissected lymph nodes,duration of chest tube placement,postoperative hospital stay,and R0 resection rate between the two groups(P＞0.05).The overall incidence of postoperative complications was 31.25％in the nICT group and 22.64％in the surgery alone group,with no statistically significant difference(P=0.380).In the nICT group,the objective response rate(ORR)was 84.38％,with 5 cases of complete response(CR)(15.63％),22 cases of partial response(PR)(68.75％),15 cases of pathological response rate(pCR)(46.88％),and 11 cases of major pathological reaponse(MPR)(34.38％).During nICT treatment,12 cases(37.50％)experienced grade 3 treatment-related adverse events,no death induced by adverse events or immune related adverse events.Moreover,the symptoms of the patients were improved after nICT treat-ment.Conclusion Neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy shows promising efficacy in locally advanced resectable NSCLC,with manageable treatment-related adverse events.It is a safe and feasible neoadjuvant treatment modality for locally advanced resectable NSCLC.

Objective:To investigate and summarize pediatric patients with severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) presenting with varied clinical and chest imaging features in order to guide the individualized treatment. Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. Medical records of clinical, imaging and laboratory data of 505 patients with MPP who were admitted to the Department Ⅱ of Respirology Center, Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2016 to October 2023 and met the enrollment criteria were included. They were divided into severe group and non-severe group according to whether lower airway obliterans was developed. The clinical and chest imaging features of the two groups were analyzed. Those severe cases with single lobe ≥2/3 consolidation (lobar consolidation) were further divided into subtype lung-necrosis and subtype non-lung-necrosis based on whether lung necrosis was developed. Comparison on the clinical manifestations, bronchoscopic findings, whole blood C-reactive protein (CRP) and other inflammatory indicators between the two subtypes was performed. Comparisons between two groups were achieved using independent-sample t-test, nonparametric test or chi-square test. Univariate receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were performed on the indicators such as CRP of the two subtypes. Results:Of the 505 cases, 254 were male and 251 were female. The age of the onset was (8.2±2.9) years. There were 233 severe cases, among whom 206 were with lobar consolidation and 27 with diffuse bronchiolitis. The other 272 belonged to non-severe cases, with patchy, cloudy infiltrations or single lobe <2/3 uneven consolidation or localized bronchiolitis. Of the 206 cases (88.4%) severe cases with lobar consolidation, 88 harbored subtype lung-necrosis and 118 harbored subtype non-lung-necrosis. All 206 cases (100.0%) presented with persistent high fever, among whom 203 cases (98.5%) presented with inflammatory secretion obstruction and plastic bronchitis under bronchoscopy. Of those 88 cases with subtype lung-necrosis, there were 42 cases (47.7%) with dyspnea and 39 cases (44.3%) with moderate to massive amount of pleural effusion. There were 35 cases (39.8%) diagnosed with lung embolism during the disease course, of which other 34 cases (38.6%) were highly suspected. Extensive airway mucosal necrosis was observed in 46 cases (52.3%), and the level of their whole blood CRP was significantly higher than that of subtype non-lung-necrosis (131.5 (91.0, 180.0) vs. 25.5 (12.0, 43.1) mg/L, U=334.00, P<0.001). They were regarded as subtype "lung consolidation-atelectasis-necrosis". Of those 118 cases with subtype non-lung-necrosis, 27 cases (22.9%) presented with dyspnea and none were with moderate to massive amount of pleural effusion. Sixty-five cases (55.1%) presented with plastic bronchitis and localized airway mucosal necrosis was observed in 32 cases (27.1%). They were deemed as subtype "lung consolidation-atelectasis". ROC curve analyses revealed that whole blood CRP of 67.5 mg/L on the 6-10 th day of disease course exhibited a sensitivity of 0.96, a specificity of 0.89, and an area under the curve of 0.97 for distinguishing between these two subtypes among those with lobar consolidation. Conclusions:Pediatric patients with severe MPP present with lobar consolidation or diffuse bronchiolitis on chest imaging. Those with lobar consolidation harbor 2 subtypes as "lung consolidation-atelectasis-necrosis" and "lung consolidation-atelectasis". Whole blood CRP of 67.5 mg/L can be applied as an early discriminating indicator to discriminate between these two subtypes.

Objective To research superconducting magnetocardiography signal measurement technology and coronary heart disease screening for solving the difficulties in weak magnetocardiography signal measurement,and to verify the value of clinical application.Methods The principle of superconducting magnetocardiography signal measurement technology was analyzed for constructing a framework for superconducting magnetocardiography signal measurement technology.Then,the key circuits such as the host controller,magnetic flux-locked loop,and signal conditioning module were designed,and software systems and core algorithms were developed.Finally,a total of 255 volunteers with healthy hearts,mild myocardial ischemia and severe myocardial ischemia were enrolled in the study,and a comparative experiment was performed between synchronous magnetocardiography and coronary angiography(CAG).Results The peer-to-peer bipolar structure was only observed in the current density vector distribution of healthy subjects instead of myocardial ischemia subjects.The overall coincidence rate,total Kappa value,severe ischemia coincidence rate,mild ischemia coincidence rate and negative coincidence rate of magnetocardiography with CAG were 86.22%,78.21%,86.79%,84.09%and 86.67%,respectively.Magnetocardiography had a sensitivity,specificity,positive rate,negative rate,positive likelihood ratio and negative likelihood ratio of 87.16%,84.41%,86.00%,86.67%,5.98 and 0.08,respectively.Conclusion Magnetocardiography has a high coincidence rate and consistency with CAG in the diagnosis of myocardial ischemia.Superconducting magnetocardiography signal measurement technology can be served as an accurate and reliable screening method for coronary heart diseases.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To investigate the effect of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) lotion on incidence of postoperative infection and recurrence of refractory paronychia.Methods:Seventy-eight patients with intractable paronychia who received treatment at Hangzhou Third People's Hospital from January 2019 to November 2022 were included in this study. The patients were randomly divided into the povidone-iodine group ( n = 39) and the TCM lotion group ( n = 39) using the random number table method. Both groups underwent matrixectomy via a lateral incision and rhomboid flap excision surgery. Prior to the procedure, the povidone-iodine group received treatment with a 5% povidone-iodine solution, whereas the TCM lotion group was administered a TCM lotion containing Scutellaria barbata, Verbena, Lonicera japonica, Viola, Rheum palmatum, Atractylodes, Glauber's salt, Phellodendron, red peony root, Glycyrrhiza uralensis, and Magnolia officinalis. Both groups underwent treatment until the patients fulfilled the surgical indications and were subsequently observed for a period of 6 months post-surgery. The clinical efficacy was evaluated 1 month after the surgical intervention. A comparative analysis was conducted to assess the postoperative duration of redness and swelling, pus discharge, granulation, and pain resolution between the two groups. Additionally, the postoperative occurrence of wound-dressing adhesion, the status of wound healing, pain intensity at 1 and 3 days post-surgery, the incidence of infection at 1 week post-surgery, and the recurrence rates at 1 and 6 months post-surgery, were compared between the two groups. Results:At 1 month post-surgery, the total effective rate in the TCM lotion group was 92.31% (36/39), which was significantly higher than that in the povidone-iodine group [71.79% (28/39), χ2 = 4.26, P < 0.05]. The postoperative durations of redness and swelling, pus discharge, granulation, and pain resolution in the TCM lotion group were (5.66 ± 0.58) days, (3.64 ± 0.55) days, (8.42 ± 1.58) days, and (3.36 ± 0.32) days, respectively, which were significantly shorter than those in the povidone-iodine group [(6.73 ± 0.65) days, (4.56 ± 0.48) days, (9.77 ± 2.56) days, (3.89 ± 0.48) days, t = 7.67, 7.87, 2.80, 5.73, all P < 0.05]. The proportion of mild adhesion between the wound and dressing was significantly higher, while the proportion of severe adhesion was significantly lower, compared with the povidone-iodine group ( Z = 4.64, both P < 0.05). The durations of postoperative pain, the time to redness resolution, and wound healing time in the TCM lotion group were (4.22 ± 1.73) days, (3.02 ± 1.16) days, and (11.84 ± 2.50) days, which were significantly shorter than those in the povidone-iodine group [(8.53 ± 2.48) days, (5.20 ± 2.31) days, (13.32 ± 2.86) days, t = 8.90, 5.26, 2.43, all P < 0.001]. At 3 days post-surgery, pain scores in each group were significantly lower than the respective scores at 1 day post-surgery. At 1 and 3 days post-surgery, pain scores in the TCM lotion group were (3.30 ± 0.18) points and (2.28 ± 0.23) points, respectively, which were significantly lower than the respective scores in the povidone-iodine group [(3.61 ± 0.29) points, (2.52 ± 0.33) points, t = 5.67, 3.72, both P < 0.05]. There were no significant differences in the incidence of infection at 1 week post-surgery and the recurrence of refractory paronychia at 1 and 6 months post-surgery between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusion:The combination of TCM lotion and matrixectomy through a lateral incision and rhomboid flap excision surgery for the treatment of refractory paronychia can help shorten pre-operative treatment time, minimizes postoperative wound-dressing adhesion, promote wound healing, alleviate postoperative pain, and decrease the incidence of infection and recurrence of refractory paronychia, demonstrating superior efficacy compared with treatment with a 5% povidone-iodine solution.
