Objective To understand the factors that affect the pulmonary rehabilitation behavior of elderly patients with lung cancer during the post-operative transitional period,and provide reference bases for formulating the pulmonary rehabilitation plan of elderly patients with lung cancer during the transitional period and improving the compliance of pulmonary rehabilitation.Methods Based on the capability,opportunity,and motivation-behavior model(COM-B model),12 elderly lung cancer patients who underwent surgery at a tertiary A tumor hospital in Tianjin from March to July 2022 were selected for semi-structured interviews using descriptive research methods and purposive sampling method.The data were analyzed using directed content analysis.Results The ability factors(physical strength and postoperative discomfort symptoms of the elderly limit lung rehabilitation exercise,lack of pulmonary rehabilitation knowledge and awareness of the importance of exercise in lung rehabilitation knowledge),opportunity factors(lack of grassroots medical and health services,limiting lung rehabilitation exercise;family and friends are important resources for promoting lung rehabilitation exercise;medical support is a guarantee for promoting lung rehabilitation exercise),motivational factors(high self-efficacy in exercise is the foundation for lung rehabilitation exercise,perception of lung rehabilitation effects increases motivation for lung rehabilitation exercise)and 7 sub themes were extracted.Conclusion There are certain obstacles and promoting factors in the transitional lung rehabilitation process for elderly lung cancer patients after surgery.It is necessary to improve their postoperative discomfort symptoms,increase their knowledge of lung rehabilitation,enhance their awareness of lung rehabilitation,face the social support role of family,friends,and medical staff,improve the infrastructure and lung rehabilitation system,increase community lung rehabilitation support,provide multi-channel high-quality lung rehabilitation resources,and promote the development of smart medical services,constructing a transitional lung rehabilitation strategy for elderly patients with lung cancer.

Objective:To investigate the related factors of restlessness during the anesthesia recovery period in children with patent ductus arteriosus after interventional surgery.Methods:The clinical data of 92 pediatric patients with patent ductus arteriosus who underwent cardiac catheterization at Children's Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine from November 2019 to October 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into two groups based on the occurrence of restlessness during the anesthesia recovery period: a control group ( n = 67, without restlessness) and an observation group ( n = 25, with restlessness). Clinical data from both groups were collected and compared. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to identify independent risk factors for restlessness during the anesthesia recovery period among pediatric patients with patent ductus arteriosus after interventional surgery. Results:Univariate analysis revealed no statistically significant differences in gender, age, temperament type, surgical duration, resuscitation room stay time, as well as blood pressure, heart rate, and blood oxygen saturation during the anesthesia recovery period between the two groups (all P > 0.05). However, the use of dexmedetomidine during surgery, preoperative anxiety, postoperative pain, and the use of antagonists were identified as risk factors for postoperative restlessness among pediatric patients with patent ductus arteriosus after interventional surgery χ2 = 9.03, 4.95, 5.84, 11.49, all P < 0.05). Multivariate regression analysis results further revealed that preoperative anxiety, postoperative pain, and the use of antagonists were independent risk factors for postoperative restlessness ( OR = 2.870, 4.083, 6.975, P = 0.029, 0.004, 0.002, 95% CI = 1.114-7.389, 1.555-10.722, 2.052-23.711), while intraoperative use of dexmedetomidine served as a protective factor ( OR = 0.318, P = 0.021, 95% CI = 0.120-0.839, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:The intraoperative use of dexmedetomidine, preoperative anxiety, postoperative pain, and the use of antagonists are identified as independent risk factors for postoperative restlessness in pediatric patients with patent ductus arteriosus after interventional surgery. It is crucial for clinicians to be aware of these factors and take preventive measures during the anesthesia recovery period to minimize the potential for harm resulting from postoperative restlessness.

Objective:To evaluate the impact of self-crosslinked hyaluronic acid (SCH) gel on endometrium recovery after artificial abortion.Methods:A multicenter, prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted across 18 hospitals from December 2021 to February 2023, involving 382 women who underwent artificial abortion. Participants were randomly allocated to receive either treatment with SCH gel (SCH group) or no treatment (control group) in a 1∶1 ratio. The primary outcome was endometrium thickness in 14 to 18 days after the first postoperative menstruation. Secondary outcomes included changes in menstrual volume during the first postoperative menstruation, menstruation resumption within 6 postoperative weeks, time to menstruation resumption, duration of the first postoperative menstruation, and incidence of dysmenorrhea.Results:Baseline characteristics of participants were comparable between the two groups (all P>0.05), with 95.3% (182/191) in SCH group and 92.7% (177/191) in the control group completed the study. The postoperative endometrial thickness in SCH group was significantly greater than that in the control group [(9.78±3.15) vs (8.95±2.32) mm; P=0.005]. SCH group also had significantly fewer participants with reduced menstrual volume [23 cases (12.6%, 23/182) vs 31 cases (17.5%, 31/177); P=0.038]. Although SCH group experienced less dysmenorrhea during the first postoperative menstrual period, this difference was not statistically significant [28.5% (51/179) vs 37.1% (65/175); P=0.083]. Outcomes were similar between SCH group and the control group regarding the proportion of participants who resumed menstruation within 6 weeks postoperatively, time to menstruation resumption, and duration of the first postoperative menstruation ( P=0.792, 0.485, and 0.254, respectively). No serious adverse events were observed during the study period, and no adverse events were attributed to SCH gel treatment. Conclusion:The application of SCH gel after artificial abortion is safe and might aid in the recovery of the endometrium.

Objective:To investigate the value of modified early warning score (MEWS) combined with D-dimer test in the establishment of an acute pancreatitis severity evaluation model.Methods:The clinical data of 357 patients with acute pancreatitis who received treatment in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, China between January 2017 and December 2018 were collected for this study. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to determine the optimal cut-off value of MEWS combined with D-dimer test for predicting non-mild acute pancreatitis. The relationship between MEWS and D-dimer level was analyzed using regression analysis. The area under the curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the ability of each factor to predict the severity of acute pancreatitis. The sensitivity and specificity of the new model to predict non-mild acute pancreatitis were calculated.Results:According to the receiver operating characteristic curve, the AUC of D-dimer, MEWS, and new model were 0.702, 0.628 and 0.734 respectively ( P < 0.05). The AUC of the new model in predicting non-mild acute pancreatitis was significantly higher than that of MEWS and D-dimer test (0.734 > 0.702 > 0.628, Z = 3.20, P < 0.01). Conclusion:The ability of the new model established based on MEWS and D-dimer to predict the severity of acute pancreatitis is stronger than that of each of MEWS and D-dimer. The new model is simple, convenient and more suitable for clinical use.

Objective:To explore the expression of long non-coding RNA-myeloid differentiation factor 88 (lnc-MyD88) and its relationship with the prognosis of patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).Methods:A total of 70 EOC patients who underwent initial cytoreductive surgery and platinum-based drugs combined with paclitaxel for 6 to 8 courses were selected at Sichuan Cancer Hospital from January 2016 to January 2019. The fresh cancer tissue specimens were collected. In addition, 28 fresh normal ovarian tissues from patients who underwent surgery for benign gynecological diseases during the same period were collected as control group. Reverse transcription (RT) and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) were used to detect the expression of lnc-MyD88 and myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) mRNA in EOC tissues and normal ovarian tissues. The correlation between the expression of lnc-MyD88 and MyD88 mRNA in EOC was analyzed by Pearson′s correlation coefficient. The relationship between lnc-MyD88 expression and clinicopathological characteristics of patients with EOC was analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the survival rate of patients. The log-rank test was used for univariate survival analysis, and Cox proportional hazard model was used for multivariate survival analysis.Results:(1) RT-qPCR showed that the relative expression level of lnc-MyD88 and MyD88 mRNA in EOC were 0.009 (0.000-0.049) and 0.001 (0.000-0.006), respectively, which were significantly higher than those of normal ovarian tissues (all P<0.01); Pearson′s correlation coefficient showed that the expression of lnc-MyD88 and MyD88 mRNA in EOC was positively correlated ( r2=0.610, P<0.01). (2) The high expression rate of lnc-MyD88 in EOC patients with lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis and chemotherapy resistance (71%, 64% and 70%, respectively) were significantly higher than the patients in control group (41%, 40% and 35%, respectively; all P<0.05). There were no statistically significant in the high expression rate of lnc-MyD88 in EOC patients with different ages, pathological types, pathological grades, surgical pathological stages, postoperative residual lesion size, and ascites cancer cells (all P>0.05). (3) Univariate analysis showed that surgical pathological staging, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, postoperative residual tumor size, and high expression of lnc-MyD88 and MyD88 mRNA significantly affected the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of EOC patients (all P<0.05), ascites cancer cells were the risk factors that significantly affected PFS in EOC patients ( P=0.040); multivariate analysis showed that surgical pathological staging and high expression of lnc-MyD88 and MyD88 mRNA were independent factors affecting PFS and OS in EOC patients (all P<0.05), the size of residual lesions after surgery was an independent factor affecting PFS in EOC patients ( P=0.001). Conclusions:The level of lnc-MyD88 expression in ovarian cancer tissues was significantly increased. Lnc-MyD88, as a molecular marker for the poor prognosis of EOC, is related to the expression of MyD88 in EOC, and may be involved in its expression regulation, thereby affecting the survival and prognosis of EOC patients.

Objective:To explore the influence of bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) inhibitor on wild-type Kras differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) and its mechanism.Methods:The DTC cell line Kras WT TPC-1 was selected and the mutant Kras G12D TPC-1 cells were constructed. CCK-8 assay was used to detect the effect of BRD4 inhibitor JQ-1 on the proliferation activity of Kras WT TPC-1 cells. Kras WT TPC-1 cells were treated with 0.2 μmol/L JQ-1 (JQ-1 group), and a negative control group (NC group) was set. Transwell invasion assay and flow cytometry were used to detect the effect of JQ-1 on the invasion and apoptosis of Kras WT TPC-1 cells. The effect of JQ-1 on the expressions of BRD4, miR-106b-5p and P21, and the effect of P21 inhibitor UC2288 on the expressions of P21 and BRD4 were detected. Kras WT TPC-1 cells were divided into JQ-1+ NC-OE group, JQ-1+ p21-OE group (overexpression of p21) and JQ-1+ p21-OE+ miR-106b-5p mimic group (overexpression of p21 and miR-106b-5 at the same time), and the proliferation, invasion and apoptosis of cells in each group were detected. TPC-1 cells were divided into Kras WT group, Kras WT+ JQ-1 group, Kras G12D group and Kras G12D+ JQ-1 group, and the cell proliferation, invasion and apoptosis of each group were detected. Results:JQ-1 inhibited the proliferation activity of Kras WT TPC-1 cells in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner. In the NC group and JQ-1 group, the numbers of cell invasion were 124.67±9.61 and 82.67±8.02, and the apoptosis rates were (5.91±0.34)% and (10.33±1.10)%, respectively, with statistically significant differences ( t=5.812, P=0.004; t=6.653, P=0.003). JQ-1 significantly inhibited the expressions of BRD4 and miR-106b-5p, and promoted the expression of P21 in Kras WT TPC-1 cells. UC2288 significantly inhibited P21 expression, but had no significant effect on BRD4 expression. In the JQ-1+ NC-OE group, JQ-1+ p21-OE group and JQ-1+ p21-OE+ miR-106b-5p mimic group, the proliferation activities at 24 h of Kras WT TPC-1 cells was 0.46±0.03, 0.35±0.04 and 0.44±0.03 ( F=8.720, P=0.017), and the proliferation activity of JQ-1+ p21-OE group was significantly lower than that of the JQ-1+ NC-OE group ( P<0.05). The numbers of cell invasion in the three groups were 83.00±9.17, 56.67±6.03 and 79.67±10.07 ( F=8.347, P=0.018), and the number of cell invasion in the JQ-1+ p21-OE group was significantly lower than that in the JQ-1+ NC-OE group ( P=0.009). The apoptosis rates of the three groups were (10.00±0.49)%, (15.39±1.14)% and (10.32±0.80)% ( F=37.764, P<0.001), and the apoptosis rate of the JQ-1+ p21-OE group was significantly higher than that in the JQ-1+ NC-OE group ( P<0.001). There were no significant differences in cell proliferation activity, invasion number and apoptosis rate between JQ-1+ p21-OE+ miR-106b-5p mimic group and JQ-1+ NC-OE group (all P>0.05). In Kras WT group, Kras WT+ JQ-1 group, Kras G12D group and Kras G12D+ JQ-1 group, the cell proliferation activities at 24 h were 0.50±0.05, 0.39±0.04, 0.68±0.08 and 0.64±0.05 ( F=17.776, P<0.001). Compared with the Kras WT group, cell proliferation activity in the Kras WT+ JQ-1 group was significantly decreased, while that in the Kras G12D group was significantly increased (both P<0.05). The numbers of cell invasion in the four groups were 129.33±11.50, 86.00±9.54, 161.67±13.01 and 146.33±13.20 ( F=22.598, P<0.001). Compared with the Kras WT group, the number of cell invasion in the Kras WT+ JQ-1 group was significantly decreased ( P=0.002), and that in the Kras G12D group was significantly increased ( P=0.010). The apoptosis rates in the four groups were (6.17±0.50)%, (10.42±0.73)%, (3.43±0.47)% and (3.41±0.32)% ( F=119.170, P<0.001). Compared with the Kras WT group, the apoptosis rate in the Kras WT+ JQ-1 group was significantly increased ( P<0.001), and that in the Kras G12D group was significantly decreased ( P<0.001). There were no significant differences in cell proliferation activity, invasion number and apoptosis rate between Kras G12D+ JQ-1 group and Kras G12D group (all P>0.05). Conclusion:BRD4 inhibitor can specifically inhibit the development of wild-type Kras DTC via regulating the molecular axis of BRD4/miR-106b-5p/P21, but has no significant effect on the proliferation, invasion and apoptosis of mutant Kras DTC tumor cells.

OBJECTIVE: To study the working experience of COVID-19 care nurses. METHODS: Twenty two nurses taking care of COVID-19 patients were interviewed by means of descriptive phenomenology. All the data were transcribed and recorded, and then processed into WORD documents. The Colaizzi 7 footwork was used to classify, encode, establish nodes and extract themes based on Nvivo11.0 software. RESULTS: Two main themes were extracted: one is the positive feelings of nurses, including the sense of professional mission and pride, the sense of achievement and happiness, the improvement of self-worth and ability, the powerful support system and the power of role models; the other is the negative experience of nurses, including the worry and anxiety at work, the lack of experience and trust, the difficulty of work, and the inconvenience of isolating life. CONCLUSIONS s While fully affirming the work value of nurses, it is necessary for the society, hospitals and patients to give extensive and continuous support, care and respect to nurses, so as to stimulate their working enthusiasm and sense of professional achievement. Hospital managers need to implement all kinds of security work, meet the safety needs of nurses, pay attention to the physical and mental health of nurses, strengthen the training of nursing talents for critical and severe diseases and infectious diseases, improve the allocation of human resources, and enhance the ability of material allocation and reserve for major health events, so as to make adequate preparations for coping with public health events in the future.

Objective:To investigate a cluster epidemic of COVID-19 after a mass gathering activity in Ningbo of Zhejiang province and analyze the transmission chain and status of infection cases of different generations.Methods:The tracking of all the close contacts of the first COVID-19 case and epidemiological investigation were conducted on January 29, 2020 after a cluster epidemic of COVID-19 related with a Buddhism rally on January 19 (the 1.19 rally) in Ningbo occurred. The swabs of nose/throat of the cases and close contacts were collected and tested for nucleic acids by real-time fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR.Results:From January 26 to February 20, 2020, a total of 67 COVID-19 cases and 15 asymptomatic infection cases related with the 1.19 rally were reported in Ningbo. The initial case was the infection source who infected 29 second generation cases and 4 asymptomatic infection cases, in whom 23 second generation cases and 3 asymptomatic infection cases once took bus with the initial case, the attack rate was 33.82% (23/68) and the infection rate was 38.24% (26/68). The risks of suffering from COVID-19 and being infected were 28.91 times and 26.01 times higher in rally participants taking bus with initial case compared with those taking no bus with initial case. In this epidemic, 37 third+generation cases and 11 related asymptomatic infection cases occurred, the attack rate was 2.88% (37/1 283) and the infection rate was 4.76% (48/1 008). The main transmission routes included vehicle sharing and family transmission.Conclusion:It was a cluster epidemic of COVID-19 caused by a super spreader in a massive rally. The epidemic has been under effective control.

Objective:To study the characteristics of the lens turbidity after long-term exposure to low intensity 635nm laser.Methods:Cluster sampling method was adopted to select 812 employees in a laser leveler workshop in a city of Guangdong Province from January 2014 to December 2018. They were divided into the control group, diffuse reflection (DR) group and direct vision (DV) group for retrospective observation and analysis of lens turbidity. The laser irradiation intensity of each group was investigated, the position and shape of lens opacity were analyzed, and the influencing factors were statistically analyzed with the repeated measurement data of dichotomy.Results:The laser irradiance and radiant exposure of DV group were between 0.72×10 -4 and 9.92×10 -4 mW/cm 2 and between 2.61×10 -2 and 1.53 J/cm 2, respectively. The subjects were mainly diagnosed with lens turbidity lesion, especially for the DV group. Most of lesions occurred in the pole and periphery of the anterior cortex. The lesions exhibited multipoint patterns with greyish white color. The turbidity rates in DV group (before work and work for 1, 2, 3 years) were 0%, 1.99% (8/402) , 4.98% (20/402) and 6.72% (27/402) , respectively, in the order of observation points. The statistical analysis of single factor effect showed that the turbidity rate was higher in DV group and higher in the second year in the DV group ( P<0.01) . Multi-factor analysis of the laser effect on the lens showed that the main effect between groups, between the observation point were statistically significant ( P<0.05) , but no statistical significance in the interaction between group×observation points ( P>0.05) . Conclusion:Lens turbidity lesion can be caused by long-term exposure to low intensity 635 nm laser, so the product safety classification should be strictly strengthened. It is necessary to strengthen the protection of laser photochemical damage in the production process.
