Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of three-dimensional visualization technology in assisting ablation therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods This study was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines,with a PROSPERO registration number of CRD42023488398.PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,the Cochrane Library,CNKI,Wanfang Data,VIP,and CBM were searched for Chinese and English articles on three-dimensional visualization technology in assisting ablation therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma published up to March 2023.After quality assessment and data extraction of the studies included,RevMan 5.4 software was used to perform the meta-analysis.Results A total of 11 studies were included,with 972 patients in total,among whom 447 underwent ablation assisted by three-dimensional visualization technology(3D group)and 525 underwent ablation assisted by traditional two-dimensional imaging technology(2D group).The meta-analysis showed that compared with the 2D group,the 3D group had significantly higher success rate of first-time ablation treatment(odds ratio[OR]=5.43,95%confidence interval[CI]:2.64—11.18,P<0.001),technical efficiency(OR=6.15,95%CI:3.23—11.70,P<0.001),and complete ablation rate(OR=2.50,95%CI:1.08—5.78,P=0.03),as well as significantly lower incidence rate of major complications(OR=0.45,95%CI:0.24—0.87,P=0.02),local recurrence rate(OR=0.35,95%CI:0.17—0.72,P=0.004),and local tumor progression rate(OR=0.29,95%CI:0.16—0.50,P<0.001),while there was no significant difference in the incidence rate of mild complications between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Three-dimensional visualization technology is safe and feasible in assisting ablation therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma and can improve ablation rate and reduce the incidence rate of serious complications,local recurrence rate,and local tumor progression rate,thereby showing an important application value in clinical practice.

Objective Studies on the relationship between iodine,vitamin A(VA),and vitamin D(VD)and thyroid function are limited.This study aimed to analyze iodine and thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH)status and their possible relationships with VA,VD,and other factors in postpartum women. Methods A total of 1,311 mothers(896 lactating and 415 non-lactating)from Hebei,Zhejiang,and Guangxi provinces were included in this study.The urinary iodine concentration(UIC),TSH,VA,and VD were measured. Results The median UIC of total and lactating participants were 142.00 μg/L and 139.95 μg/L,respectively.The median TSH,VA,and VD levels in all the participants were 1.89 mIU/L,0.44 μg/mL,and 24.04 ng/mL,respectively.No differences in the UIC were found between lactating and non-lactating mothers.UIC and TSH levels were significantly different among the three provinces.The rural UIC was higher than the urban UIC.Obese mothers had a higher UIC and a higher prevalence of excessive TSH.Higher UICs and TSHs levels were observed in both the VD deficiency and insufficiency groups than in the VD-sufficient group.After adjustment,no linear correlation was observed between UIC and VA/VD.No interaction was found between vitamins A/D and UIC on TSH levels. Conclusion The mothers in the present study had no iodine deficiency.Region,area type,BMI,and VD may be related to the iodine status or TSH levels.

Objective:To examine the application of a novel pedagogical approach multidimensional supportive psychological intervention(MSPI)in the clinical practice teaching of andrological nursing care.Methods:Using the Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD),we assessed the psychology of 100 nursing interns about to enter clinical practice in the Department of Andrology from De-cember 2021 to December 2022.We equally randomized the subjects into an experimental and a control group,the former receiving MSPI and the latter trained on the conventional teaching model without any psychological support intervention.Results:Compared with the baseline,the HAMD scores were significantly decreased in the experimental group after intervention(12.4±2.1 vs 8.9±2.4,P＜0.01),but increased in the controls(13.1±1.8 vs 14.7±1.9,P＜0.01);the skill scores dramatically increased in the experimental group(82.6±4.7 vs 91.2±2.4,P＜0.01),but decreased in the control group after intervention(81.0±3.5 vs 80.4±2.7,P=0.28).Conclusion:MSPI can significantly enhance the learning enthusiasm of nursing students in a short period,re-duce their psychological stress and improve teaching outcomes.This approach,combining psychology with teaching,can also strength-en the mental resilience of nursing students and better confront them with future professional challenges.
