ObjectiveTo evaluate the impact of narrative medicine education on the narrative ability of resident physicians undergoing standardized residency training, and to explore its application value in clinical practice. MethodsA total of 23 obstetricians and gynecologists who participated in residency training at the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from October 2021 to June 2024 were randomly selected to receive a 3-month residency training program integrated with narrative medicine education, including narrative theory learning, text reading, reflective writing, and scenario-based case analysis. A questionnaire survey was conducted to analyze the personal situation of resident physicians, their narrative ability before and after receiving narrative medicine education, and their satisfaction with teaching. ResultsThe results of the questionnaire survey showed that resident physicians who had received narrative medicine education scored higher on the narrative ability assessment scale than before training, including improved narrative abilities in the dimensions of life and health narrative awareness, professional narrative thinking, professional development narrative behavior, peer communication narrative behavior, and doctor-patient interaction narrative behavior (P<0.05). However, there were no statistically significant differences in the dimensions of life and health narrative behavior and family connection narrative behavior (P>0.05). Meanwhile, resident physicians’ interest in active learning, clinical thinking ability, doctor-patient communication ability, and satisfaction with teaching methods have also been improved (P<0.05). ConclusionNarrative medicine education can effectively enhance the narrative ability of resident physicians and make up for the current deficiencies in humanistic literacy and ethical education in current medical education. It is of great significance for improving doctor-patient relationships and the quality of medical services. Therefore, it is recommended to integrate narrative medicine education into the regular training curriculum for resident physicians.

This study searched the clinical researches on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for cardiovascular diseases registered in Chinese Clinical Trial Registry and the US Clinical Trial Registry, the cardiovascular disease-related studies funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, as well as those published in China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang database, VIP.com, China Biology Medicine disc (CBMdisc), Embase, Medline, Cochrane Library, and other databases published cardiovascular disease-related studies from 1 January 2021 to 30 June 2023. In order to analyse and evaluate the research progress of TCM treatment for coronary heart disease, hypertension, heart failure, and arrhythmia, this study aimed at recent research hotspots and research direction. It is found that the research on TCM for cardiovascular diseases was gradually deepening and the high-quality evidence continued to emerge. It is believed that studies related to the prevention and treatment of common cardiovascular diseases by TCM reflected the multi-angle integration of modern technology and pattern differentiation and treatment, closer integration of clinical and basic research, and further optimisation of pattern identification and interventions. On this basis, the research programme and implementation process should be further standardized, and the translation of research results should be emphasized to promote the standardized application and promotion of TCM diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

ObjectiveKaroshi, death from overwork, is a serious problem with unclear identification standards and mechanisms. This study aims to establish a karoshi rat model by integrating weight-bearing swimming and sleep deprivation. This model will enable us to investigate the adverse effects of acute physical and mental fatigue on cardiac functions and explore the response mechanisms to overwork using integrated omics approaches, specifically metabonomics and proteomics. MethodsThe experimental design involved healthy male sprague-dawley (SD) rats subjected to weight-bearing swimming and sleep deprivation for 7 d. The rats were monitored for changes in physiological function indexes, including electrocardiogram and respiration. Protein digestion, iTRAQ labeling, and quantitative data analyses were performed to determine differentially expressed proteins (DEPs). Additionally, GC-MS analysis was conducted to identify differential metabolites. The integration analysis of differential metabolites and proteins shared by the fatigue group and the overwork group was performed to construct a relevant metabolic pathway network and integrate the proteomics and metabolomics data. Statistical analysis was carried out using one-way ANOVA and Duncan’s multiple range t-tests. ResultsThe rats subjected to weight-bearing swimming and sleep deprivation showed various physical and behavioral changes associated with fatigue, including hair disorder, decreased muscle tension, reduced food intake, and weight loss. Analysis of cardiac functions revealed cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure in the fatigue and karoshi groups, as evidenced by changes in heart color, myocardial fiber structure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and cardiac ultrasound measurements. Metabolomics analysis using GC-MS identified several differential metabolites in response to overwork, including amino acids involved in various metabolic pathways. Proteomic analysis using iTRAQ technology identified DEPs in the fatigue and karoshi groups, with a subset of DEPs shared by both groups. The GO analysis revealed that the up-regulated DEPs were primarily associated with mitochondria and peroxisomes in the cellular component category. The Reactome analysis further highlighted the enrichment of DEPs in the transfer of ferriheme from methemoglobin to hemopexin pathway. Integration analysis of the DEPs and differential metabolites revealed the activation of autophagy, increased mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, enhanced branched-chain amino acid degradation, and altered peroxisomal β-oxidation. These findings suggested complex metabolic adaptations to meet the increased energy demands during overwork while also dealing with oxidative stress. Furthermore, the reprogramming of energy metabolism was observed, with upregulation of fatty acid β-oxidation enzymes and glycolysis-related enzymes in the fatigue group, indicating a shift towards glucose metabolism. In contrast, the karoshi group showed a decreased dependence on fatty acids as an energy source and increased utilization of glucose. The model proposed in this study highlights the interconnected metabolic changes involving mitochondria, peroxisomes, and lysosomes in response to overwork. The findings contribute to our understanding of the mechanisms involved in overwork-related pathologies and provide a basis for further research in the field of karoshi. ConclusionOverall, metabolic reprogramming might provide sufficient energy to the heart, alleviate oxidative stress and damage to cardiac cells in response to excessive exertion and fatigue. Our findings provide an insight into response mechanism to overwork death and lay a foundation for further research on overwork death.
