Objective:To investigate the effects of applying the "4C" teaching method combined with the Gibbs' reflective cycle to clinical nursing teaching in the department of urology.Methods:A total of 68 nursing students who practiced in the urology department of our hospital were divided using a lottery method into experimental group ( n=35, entering the second and third wards for internship) and control group ( n=33, entering the first and fourth wards). The experimental group was taught using the "4C" teaching method combined with the Gibbs' reflective cycle, including four teaching steps (connection, concept, concrete practice, and conclusion) and regular reflective discussions. The control group received traditional teaching, which covered entrance education, centralized theoretical training, skills demonstration, and exit assessment. At the end of internship, the two groups were compared in terms of self-directed learning ability, nursing competency, and theoretical and practical scores. SPSS 23.0 was used to perform the t test. Results:The self-directed learning scores of the experimental group and the control group were (227.37±12.91) and (207.09±16.27), respectively. The nursing competency scores were (156.66±12.49) and (138.06±17.23), respectively. The experimental group was significantly superior to the control group in self-directed learning ability ( t=5.71, P<0.001), nursing competency ( t=5.12, P<0.001), theoretical score ( t=3.03, P=0.004), and practical score ( t=4.88, P<0.001). Conclusions:The "4C" teaching method combined with the Gibbs' reflective cycle can effectively improve nursing students' self-directed learning ability and nursing competency, and help them better master knowledge and skills.

Objective:To explore the alterations in functional connectivity density (FCD) resulted from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and their correlations with cognitive scores in various cognitive domains in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).Methods:Forty-three PD patients admitted to Department of Neurology, Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from January 2022 to April 2024 were selected and divided into PD-MCI group (MoCA scores<26) and PD with normal cognition (PD-NC) group (MoCA scores≥26) according to Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Another 23 middle-aged and elderly healthy volunteers (HC group) matched with PD patients in age, gender and education level were recruited at the same period. Resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) data were collected and whole brain FCD was calculated. Differences of clinical data, whole brain FCD, and FCD in brain regions with significantly different FCD among the 3 groups were compared. Efficiency of FCD in brain regions with significantly different FCD between PD-MCI group and PD-NC group in differentially diagnosing PD-MCI and PD-NC was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Pearson correlation was used to the analyze the correlations of FCD in brain regions with significantly different FCD with MoCA score and cognitive scores in various cognitive domains.Results:Among the 43 patients, 23 were into the PD-MCI group and 20 into the PD-NC group. PD-MCI group had significantly lower scores in the visuospatial and executive function, abstraction, and delayed memory cognitive domains than PD-NC group ( P<0.05). Brain regions with significantly different FCD among the 3 groups were the right parahippocampal gyrus, left gyrus rectus, right rolandic operculum, left middle occipital gyrus, right precentral gyrus, left middle frontal gyrus, and left medial superior frontal gyrus. Compared with the HC group, the PD-MCI group and PD-NC group had significantly increased FCD at the right parahippocampal gyrus, left gyrus rectus and right rolandic operculum, statistically decreased FCD at the right precentral gyrus, left middle frontal gyrus, and left medial superior frontal gyrus ( P<0.05). Compared with the HC group, the PD-MCI group had significantly increased FCD at the left middle occipital gyrus ( P<0.05). Compared with the PD-NC group, the PD-MCI group had significantly decreased FCD at the right parahippocampal gyrus, and statistically increased FCD at the left middle occipital gyrus and left middle frontal gyrus ( P<0.05). Area under ROC curve (AUC) of FCD in brain regions with significantly different FCD in discriminating PD-MCI and PD-NC was 0.878, with sensitivity of 90.0% and specificity of 91.3%. FCD at right parahippocampal gyrus, left middle occipital gyrus and left middle frontal gyrus was negatively correlated with MoCA score ( P<0.05); FCD at right parahippocampal gyrus was positively correlated with cognitive scores in the visuospatial and executive function, and delayed memory domains ( P<0.05); FCD at left middle occipital gyrus was negatively correlated with cognitive scores in the executive function and visual-spatial skills, and abstraction domains ( P<0.05); FCD at the left medial frontal gyrus was negatively correlated with cognitive scores in the visuospatial and executive function, abstraction and delayed memory domains ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Abnormal FCD can be noted in some brain regions of PD patients, enjoying differences between PD-MCI patients and PD-NC patients. Combined FCD in brain regions with significantly different FCD has high value in differentially diagnosing PD-MCI and PD-NC, and FCD in brain regions with significantly different FCD is correlated with cognitive function changes in PD patients.

Objective:To explore the expression of fructose bisphosphate aldolase A (ALDOA) in the bone marrow of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and the correlation with clinical features and prognosis.Methods:The bone marrow samples of 90 newly diagnosed AML (non-acute promyelocytic leukemia) patients and 18 allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation donors who were treated from January 2013 to December 2015 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University and the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University were collected. The relative expression level of ALDOA mRNA in bone marrow samples was detected by using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Clinical data of these patients were retrospectively analyzed, and the patients were divided into continuous complete remission (CR) group and refractory recurrent (RR) group according to the clinical response and follow-up results. The differences of the relative expression level of ALDOA mRNA between AML group and the normal control group, CR group and RR group were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression risk model were used for analysis of factors influencing prognosis of AML patients.Results:The relative expression level of ALDOA mRNA in AML group was higher than that in normal control group [(5.71±0.44) vs. (1.10±0.08), t = 4.74, P<0.001]. The relative expression level of ALDOA mRNA in the RR group was higher than that in the CR group [(6.69±0.67) vs. (4.30±0.36) , t = 2.79, P < 0.001]. In addition, there were statistically significant differences in the proportion of patients with ALDOA mRNA high expression and those with ALDOA mRNA low expression stratified by the number of white blood cell, the proportion of bone marrow blasts and whether complete remission could be achieved or not after 1 course of induction therapy (all P < 0.05). Overall survival in patients with ALDOA high expression was worse than that in patients with ALDOA low expression ( χ2 = 5.59, P = 0.018). Multivariate analysis showed that white blood cell count, prognosis stratification, whether complete remission could be achieved or not after 1 course of induction therapy and ALDOA expression were the independent prognostic factors for the death of AML patients (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:ALDOA may play an important role in the development and progression of AML, and the expression level of ALDOA in the bone marrow can be used as an index for the prognosis assessment of AML patients and may be a potential therapeutic target for AML.

Objective:To compare fibrosis-driving cells in patients with primary myelofibrosis (PMF) and patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) with myelofibrosis (MF) (MDS-MF) .Methods:Bone marrow biopsy sections of patients with newly diagnosed PMF and MDS (10 each randomly selected for MF-0/1, MF-2, and MF-3) were stained with specific immunofluorescence antibodies to label Gli1, LeptinR, alpha smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) , CD45, and ProcollagenⅠ. Images captured by confocal microscopy were analyzed by Fiji-ImageJ to calculate the cell counts of Gli1 +, LeptinR + cells, and fibrosis-driving cells including α-SMA +, α-SMA +/Gli1 +, α-SMA +/LeptinR +, and ProcollagenⅠ +/CD45 + cells. Results:Patients with PMF and MDS with MF-2/3 had higher LeptinR +, α-SMA +, α-SMA +/Gli1 +, and Procollagen Ⅰ +/CD45 + cell counts compared with those with MF-0/1 (all P values<0.05) . However, patients with PMF with MF-2/3 presented with higher Gli1 + and α-SMA +/LeptinR + cell counts than those with MF-0/1 ( P=0.001 and 0.006) , whereas these cells were similar between patients with MDS with MF-0/1 and MF-2/3 ( P=0.169 and 0.067) . In patients with MF-0/1, all fibrosis-driving cells did not differ between PMF and MDS (all P>0.05) . However, in patients with MF-2/3, Procollagen Ⅰ +/CD45 + cell counts were higher in patients with PMF compared with those with MDS ( P=0.007) , while other fibrosis-driving cell counts were similar between these two groups (all P>0.05) . MF grade and fibrosis-driving cell counts were not correlated with overall survival in patients with either PMF or MDS. Conclusion:α-SMA + cells in patients with PMF originated from both Gli1 + and LeptinR + cells, whereas α-SMA + cells in patients with MDS-MF only originated from Gli1 + cells; patients with PMF had higher ProcollagenⅠ +/CD45 + cell counts than those with MDS-MF.
