Objective:To review the clinical status based on the best evidence of drug administration in patients with dysphagia, systematically analyze the obstacle factors and promoting factors in the process of evidence transformation, and formulate reform strategies.Methods:Based on the evidence-based nursing research method and the guidance of the Ottawa Model of Research Use (OMRU), the review indicators were developed based on the best evidence. The current status of clinical practice behaviors of 223 patients and 75 nurses in the Neurology, Neurosurgery and Geriatric departments of the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University were reviewed from July to December 2021.Based on the results of the review, qualitative interviews were conducted with 32 potential adopters, and content analysis was used to assess the barriers and contributing factors to the clinical translation of evidence in three aspects: evidence-based change, potential adopters and practice environment, so as to develop effective strategies.Results:Based on the 22 best evidence selected, the evidence-based team developed 25 review indicators to carry out clinical review, showing that the compliance rate of 16 indicators were less than 60%. By analyzing and summarizing the interview results of potential adopters, the main obstacles leading to the low compliance rate of nurses were analyzed as follows: evidence-based reform changed the traditional work mode, and the application of evidence was not convenient; at the level of potential adopters, nurses had poor knowledge and practice, heavy work burden, and low awareness of patients and caregivers; at the level of practice environment, there was lack of nursing norms and procedures for clinical transformation of evidence, and the channels of multi-disciplinary collaboration and communication were not smooth. The main promoting factors were the perfect supervision mechanism of evidence-based nursing projects, the evidence-based group had rich experience in evidence transformation, the management was willing to change, and the practitioners were good at innovation.Conclusions:There is still a large gap between the clinical practice and the best evidence of drug administration in patients with dysphagia. The promoting factors should be fully utilized to overcome the obstacles and implement improvements to promote the effective transformation of evidence into clinical practice.

Objective: To evaluate the incidence, treatment, and survival outcomes of Swyer syndrome with gonadal non-dysgerminoma malignant germ cell tumor (MGCT-NDG). Methods: A retrospective study was performed on Swyer syndrome patients with MGCT-NDG between January 2011 and December 2022 in Peking Union Medical College Hospital to investigate their characteristics and outcomes. Results: A total of 15 patients (4.9%, 15/307) with Swyer syndrome were identified in 307 MGCT-NDG patients. The average age at diagnosis of MGCT-NDG and Swyer syndrome were (16.8±6.7) and (16.7±6.6) years, respectively. Six cases were preoperatively diagnosed as Swyer syndrome, of which 4 cases received bilateral gonadectomy with or without hysterectomy, while the other 2 cases underwent removal of gonadal tumor and unilateral gonadectomy with hysterectomy, respectively. Of the 9 patients postoperatively diagnosed as Swyer syndrome, unilateral gonadectomy, removal of gonadal tumor, and unilateral gonadectomy with hysterectomy were performed in 6 patients, 2 patients, and 1 patient, respectively. Mixed malignant germ cell tumor (MGCT;10 cases), yolk sac tumor (4 cases), and immature teratoma (1 case) were the pathological subtypes, in the descending order. There were International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage Ⅰ in 6 cases, stage Ⅱ in 3 cases, stage Ⅲ in 5 cases, and stage Ⅳ in 1 case, respectively. Eleven patients received reoperation for residual gonadectomy after a average delay of (7.9±6.2) months, including 8 MGCT-NDG patients and 1 gonadoblastoma patient, no tumor involved was seen in the remaining gonads in the other 2 cases. Ten patients experienced at least one recurrence, with a median event free survival of 9 months (5, 30 months), of which 2 patients received surgery only at the time of initial treatment. All patients with recurrence received surgery and combined with postoperative chemotherapy. After a median follow-up of 25 months (15, 42 months), 10 patients were disease-free, 3 patients died of the tumor, 1 died of side effects of leukemia chemotherapy, and 1 survived with disease. Conclusion: The incidence rate of Swyer syndrome in patients with MGCT-NDG is about 4.9%; timely diagnosis and bilateral gonadectomy should be emphasized to reduce the risk of reoperation and second carcinogenesis in this population.

Objective:To explore the evaluation value of serum levels of positive pentameric protein 3 (PTX3) and creatine kinase isoenzyme MB (CK-MB) on volume load in patients with chronic decompensated heart failure (CDHF).Methods:A total of 300 CDHF patients who visited the Xingtai Central Hospital from July 2019 to July 2022 were selected and divided into a capacity overload group ( n=182) and a non capacity overload group ( n=118) based on their capacity balance level. Two clinical data sets were compared and analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the evaluation value of serum PTX3 and CK-MB levels on the volume load of CDHF patients. The clinical disease characteristics of the two groups of patients were analyzed using univariate analysis, and the influencing factors of volume load of CDHF patients were analyzed using logistic regression. A column chart model was constructed and validated. Results:The body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose (FBG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA 1c), C-reactive protein (CRP), uric acid (UA), homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) of patients in the capacity overload group were higher than those in the non-capacity overload group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The PTX3, CK-MB, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), and CVP levels of patients in the capacity overload group were higher than those in the non-capacity overload group, while albumin, hemoglobin, and hematocrit were lower than those in the non-capacity overload group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The ROC curve showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of PTX3 and CK-MB for predicting capacity overload in CDHF patients are 0.795 and 0.718, with sensitivity of 86.2% and 83.7%, specificity of 65.4% and 68.6%, respectively, indicating high predictive accuracy; The AUC of the two joint predictions is 0.817, the sensitivity was 92.5%, and the specificity was 70.6%. The prediction accuracy was higher than PTX3 ( Z=3.812, P<0.05) and CK-MB ( Z=3.365, P<0.05). PTX3, CK-MB, albumin, hemoglobin, hematocrit, PCWP, and central venous pressure (CVP) were all influencing factors of volume load status in CDHF patients (all P<0.05). The column chart risk prediction model established based on these factors had high accuracy and strong applicability in clinical treatment. Conclusions:Serum PTX3 and CK-MB levels are influencing factors for volume overload in CDHF patients. A column chart model constructed in combination with indicators such as albumin, hemoglobin, hematocrit, PCWP, and CVP has high predictive value for the volume overload status of CDHF.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and etiological characteristics of herpes pharyngitis (HA) in three prefectures of Jiangsu Province, and provide evidence for the prevention and control of HA in Jiangsu.Methods:Three surveillance sentinel hospitals in Wuxi, Suzhou and Yancheng were selected from May 2018 to December 2022, and information related to HA visits and hospitalized cases was regularly collected from the hospital inpatient management system by age groups. Enterovirus nucleic acid detection was performed by RT-PCR, and sequencing analysis, identification of genotype subtypes, and phylogenetic analysis were performed on the sequences of the gene encoding the coat protein VP1 of the main prevalent strains.Results:A total of 57 709 HA cases were recorded in the sentinel hospitals in in Wuxi, Suzhou and Yancheng, which was 1.76 times higher than the reported cases of hand, foot and mouth disease during the same period (57 709/32 831).The percentage of HA hospitalizations was 1.35% (781/57 709), and the percentage of hospitalizations showed an increasing trend from year to year ( χ2=62.79, P<0.001 ).The incidence peak of HA was during May-July. The cases were mainly children aged 12-59 months (67.07%, 38 708/57 709), with the highest case number in age group 36-59 months (34.40%, 19 852/57 709). The HA positivity rate was 33.82% (644/1 904); enterovirus A was predominant (54.04%, 348/644); of these, Coxsackievirus (CV)A6 accounted for the highest percentage (52.59%, 183/348), while CVA16 and CVA4 accounted for 24.71% (86/348) and 15.23% (53/348), respectively. All 10 CVA4 HA endemic strains belonged to the C2 gene subtype, and all 6 CVA6 HA endemic strains belonged to the D3a gene subtype; and were genetically closer to and related to the strains in some areas of China (Fujian Province, Guangzhou City, Jiangxi Province, Yunnan Province, Tianjin City, etc.). Conclusions:The disease burden of HA was heavy in 3 areas in Jiangsu, children in age group 12-59-month were mainly affected, and the annual incidence peak of HA was during May-July. The pathogens causing HA varied, but predominated by enterovirus A and had low intra-typical differentiation, and no new evolutionary branches were found, suggesting that it is necessary to include HA in foot and mouth disease surveillance or regarded as a notifiable communicable disease.

Objective:To evaluate the impact of bladder volume on dosimetric parameters of clinical target volume (CTV) and organs at risk (OAR) of intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) for localized prostate cancer during the treatment planning and daily treatment.Methods:Clinical data of 25 patients with localized prostate cancer admitted to Ruijin Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from November 2021 to June 2022 and enrolled in the "Proton Therapy System" (SAPT-PS-01) registered clinical trial were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were male and the median age was 72 years old. A total of 30 sets of IMPT plans were obtained. Based on the planning CT (30 sets) and weekly verification CT during treatment (172 sets), bladder volume, CTV and OAR dose parameters were collected. Spearman correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between bladder volume in CT and the dosimetric parameters of CTV and OAR during IMPT plans, and Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test was adopted to compare the dosimetric parameters of CTV and OAR among different bladder volume change groups.Results:The V 95% of CTV1 and CTV2 were both 100.0%±0.0% in IMPT plans. Bladder volume was significantly negatively correlated with D mean, V 70 Gy(RBE), V 60 Gy(RBE), V 50 Gy(RBE), V 40 Gy(RBE) of the bladder ( P<0.001, 0.003, <0.001, <0.001,<0.001), and D mean, V 50 Gy(RBE) of the small intestine (both P<0.001). During treatment, bladder D mean, V 70 Gy(RBE), V 60 Gy(RBE), V 50 Gy(RBE), V 40 Gy(RBE)( P<0.001, 0.001, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001), rectal D mean, V 50 Gy(RBE), V 40 Gy(RBE) (all P<0.001), small intestine D mean, V 50 Gy (RBE) (both P<0.001) of patients with bladder volume increase >20% compared to baseline were significantly decreased compared to those in IMPT plans. But CTV1 V 100%, and CTV2 V 95% were significantly decreased too( P=0.029, 0.020). In the bladder volume decreased>20% patients, the D mean, V 70 Gy(RBE), V 60 Gy(RBE), V 50 Gy(RBE), V 40 Gy(RBE) of the bladder were significantly increased compared to those in IMPT plans (all P<0.001). However, a bladder volume reduction of ≤20% and increase of ≤20% from baseline had no significant impact on CTV and OAR dosimetric parameters during treatment. Conclusions:For patients with localized prostate cancer undergoing proton therapy, a certain bladder volume should be ensured during planning CT scans. During the daily treatment, the bladder volume should be maintained between 80%-120% of the baseline level to ensure CTV coverage and good dose sparing to OAR.

Objective:To explore the cost-effectiveness and cost-benefit of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) screening and intervention based on family doctor contract services.Methods:From January 2023 to October 2023, using purposive sampling and a cross-sectional survey method, 1 040 individuals aged 60 to 75 years who underwent physical examinations at community health service centers in Shanghai Minhang district were selected as research subjects. The subjects were divided into a control group ( n=532) and a study group ( n=508). The control group received conventional community health education and participated in a COPD screening and intervention program provided by the examination center. The study group received COPD screening and intervention provided by contracted family doctors under a tightly integrated medical consortium. The screening content for both groups included initial and follow-up risk assessment questionnaires, pulmonary function tests, bronchodilator tests, and CT scans. A comparative analysis was conducted on the screening compliance rate, positive rate, and cost-effectiveness and cost-benefit between the two groups. Results:A total of 251 individuals at high risk for COPD and confirmed COPD patients were identified through initial and re-screening in both groups, accounting for 24.13% of the subjects, including 222 individuals at high risk (21.35%) and 29 confirmed patients (2.79%). The study group had significantly higher compliance rates in questionnaire-based initial screening, questionnaire-based re-screening+pulmonary function tests, bronchodilator experiments, diagnosis, and subsequent CT scans than the control group ( χ2=33.563, 41.425, 24.842, 17.363, all P<0.05).There were significant higher proportions of high-risk individuals and patients identified through screening in the study group than those in the control group ( χ2=44.880, all P<0.05). The study group had significantly higher positive rates of questionnaire-based initial screening, pulmonary function tests, bronchodilator experiments, and CT scans than the control group ( χ2=29.191, 11.313, 12.370, 4.429, all P<0.05). The overall costs of the screening in the control and study groups were 36 100 and 53 900 yuan, respectively. The cost of pulmonary function tests in the screening for the control and study groups was 1.44 million and 2.45 million yuan, respectively, accounting for 43.19% of the total cost, which was the highest proportion among all costs. The per capita cost for identifying one high-risk individual or patient with COPD was 358.46 Yuan, and the cost in study groups was significantly lower than that in the control group (322.75 vs. 429.45 yuan, χ2=20.396, P<0.05). The per capita net benefits and cost-benefit ratios for the overall subjects in the two groups were 0.37 million yuan and 43.50, respectively. The average net benefit of the study group and the control group was 0.49 million yuan and 0.26 million yuan respectively. The average net benefit of the study group was 0.23 million yuan higher than that of the control group. The cost-benefit ratio of the study group and the control group were 46.77 and 38.61, respectively. The cost-benefit ratio of the study group was 8.16 higher than that of the control group. Conclusion:The screening and intervention for COPD based on family doctor contract services have significant effectiveness, with a marked improvement in screening compliance and high cost-effectiveness, and can be used in community medical institutions with relatively sound family doctor and medical consortium services for targeted COPD screening.
