Malignant tumors have become the main cause of human death.With the prolonged use of chemotherapeutic drugs during the treatment process,tumor cell resistance is also constantly increasing.long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)is an important mem-ber of the non-coding RNA family.Cancer susceptibility candidate 2(CASC2)is a type of long non-coding RNA,high expression of CASC2 can inhibit tumor cell development and reduce drug resistance of tumor cells by promoting apoptosis,regulating signaling path-ways,participating in cellular transmission pathways,competitively binding of miRNA,and changing the protein structure or functional status.This article will provide a comprehensive review of the regulatory effects and mechanism of lncRNA CASC2 on chemotherapy resistance in malignant tumors.

Objective:To explore the effects of body mass index (BMI) on the incidence of nocturnal hypertension in patients with hypertension.Methods:Totally 341 hospitalized hypertensive patients treated at the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from February to May 2023 were selected by convenience sampling. Patients' general information, clinical data, and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure results were collected. A binomial Logistic regression analysis was conducted to investigate the factors affecting the occurrence of nocturnal hypertension in these patients. The relationship between BMI and the incidence of nocturnal hypertension was examined using threshold effect tests and smooth curve fitting.Results:The binomial Logistic regression analysis indicated that blood phosphate level was a factor influencing the occurrence of nocturnal hypertension in hypertensive patients ( P<0.05). Smooth curve fitting and threshold effect test results showed that the relationship between BMI and the incidence of nocturnal hypertension was curve-correlated, with a turning point at 24.61 kg/m 2. To the left of the turning point, there was no correlation ( P=0.130) ; to the right, there was a correlation ( P=0.016) . Conclusions:When the BMI of hypertensive patients exceeds 24.61 kg/m 2, the likelihood of nocturnal hypertension increases with rising BMI, providing a precise intervention target for weight management-based patient care in hypertension.

Objective:To explore the turnover intention of dental outpatient nurses, and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:From August to September 2021, multi-stage sampling was used to select nurses from 20 stomatology hospitals in 7 geographical regions of North China, East China, South China, Central China, Southwest, Northeast, and Northwest China. The survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, Turnover Intention Scale, Nursing Work Environment Scale, Psychological Capital Scale for Nurses, and Work Engagement Scale.Results:A total of 1 513 questionnaires were collected, including 1 135 valid questionnaires, with a valid rate of 75.02% (1 135/1 513). The total score of turnover intention among 1 135 dental outpatient nurses was (2.22±0.56). Pearson correlation analysis showed a negative correlation between nursing work environment, psychological capital, work engagement, and turnover intention ( r=-0.421, -0.340, -0.446; P<0.01). The structural equation model showed that the nursing work environment had a direct negative effect on the turnover intention of dental outpatient nurses (β=-0.401, P<0.01) and had an indirect negative effect on turnover intention through work engagement (β=-0.106, P<0.01), with a mediating effect of 20.91%. Psychological capital had an indirect negative effect on the turnover intention of dental outpatient nurses through work engagement (β=-0.271, P<0.01), with a mediating effect of 52.83%. Conclusions:The turnover intention of dental outpatient nurses is at a high level. Managers can reduce the turnover intention of dental clinic nurses by improving the nursing work environment, developing psychological capital, and increasing work engagement.

Objective:To investigate which indicator is more advantageous when using arterial oxygen saturation(SaO2)and fingertip pulse oxygen saturation(SpO2)for blood oxygen detection in patients with hyperleukocytic acute leukemia(HAL).Methods:In this prospective research,the difference between SaO2 and SpO2 of 18 HAL patients(observation group)and 14 patients(control group),as well as the relationship between the difference and white blood cell(WBC)counts were analyzed.Results:SaO2 was lower than SpO2 in the observation group(P＜0.05),and SpO2-SaO2 difference was positively correlated with WBC counts(r=0.47).However,there was no statistical difference between SaO2 and SpO2 in the control group.SaO2 and PO2 showed a downward trend with the prolongation of detection time after arterial blood was collected in the observation group,but there was no statistical difference.There was no downward trend of SaO2 and PO2 in the control group.Conclusion:HAL patients have a phenomenon where SaO2 is lower than SpO2,that is pseudohypoxemia,and this phenomenon may be caused by excessive consumption of oxygen by the leukemia cells in vitro.SpO2 can be monitored bedside in real time and is non-invasive,it is a better way to detect the blood oxygen status of HAL patients.

Objective:To synthesize the findings of qualitative research on the treatment experience of cancer patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors therapy to provide a basis for developing relevant health education strategies and other supportive care interventions.Methods:Qualitative research on the treatment experience of cancer patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors therapy, published by May 2022, were searched in English and Chinese databases, including Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and CBM. The quality of the included studies was evaluated by Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Tool for qualitative studies. The research results were summarized and Meta-synthesis using the pooled integration method.Results:A total of 13 articles were included and 62 findings were grouped into 12 new categories according to their similarities. These 12 categories resulted in 4 synthesized findings: life was affected, facing multiple decision scenarios, presence of some unmet needs and gaining positive experiences and personal growth.Conclusions:Although patients experience some positive experiences, a large proportion of them experience significant health distress. Healthcare professionals should develop targeted health education with supportive care strategies on the basis of a comprehensive assessment.

Objective:To explore the core prescriptions and mechanism of national TCM master Liu Bailing in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation (LDH) based on data mining and network pharmacology methods; To provide the clinical reference for the treatment of LDH.Methods:The cases of LDH treated by Professor Liu in Affiliated Hospital of Changchun University of Chinese Medicine, from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2019 were collected and analyzed. Hierarchical clustering and association rules were used to analyze the medication rules and core prescriptions. TCMSP, GeneCards, ETCM, SymMap, DAVID, etc. were used to analyze the network pharmacology of the core compounds in treating LDH and symptoms, and reveal the mechanism.Results:A total of 1 334 prescriptions were included, involving 201 kinds of Chinese materia medica, among which the medicinal property was mainly warm, the flavor was mainly sweet and the meridians were mainly liver meridian and kidney meridian; the core medicines for the treatment of LDH included Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata, Spatholobi Caulis, Cinnamomi Cortex, Corydalis Rhizoma, Eucommiae Cortex, Paederia Foetida and Amomi Fructus, reflecting that Professor Liu Bailing often treats LDH from the perspective of kidney deficiency, and commonly uses the treatment methods of dispelling wind, relieving pain, warming yang and benefiting the kidney. The core prescriptions mainly participated in three pathways of cancer, immunity and cell metabolism, including PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway and FoxO signaling pathway. Conclusion:Professor Liu Bailing's treatment of LDH focuses on overall dialectical treatment, which mainly dispels wind, relieves pain, warms yang and benefits the kidney and the mechanism of the core prescriptions may lie in diminishing the inflammatory response. The core prescriptions may treat LDH by regulating the immune response and cellular physiological functions.

【Objective】 To investigate the effects of preoperative ureteroscopy (URS) on the intravesical recurrence (IVR) in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) after radical nephroureterectomy (RNU). 【Methods】 The clinical data of 241 UTUC patients treated during May 2012 and Jan.2020 in the Second Hospital of Laozhou University were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into URS before RNU group (URS group) and non-URS before RNU group (non-URS group). The cumulative IVR rate, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) after RNU were compared, and the survival curve was drawn. Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess risk factors affecting IVR. 【Results】 Of the 241 patients, 64 (26.6%) were included in the URS group and 177 (73.4%) in the non-URS group. In the URS group, 49 underwent biopsy and 15 did not. All patients were followed up for a median of 44 (3 to 122) months, with a median time to recurrence of 12 (3 to 56) months. IVR occurred in 18 patients (28.1%) in the URS group and 25 (14.1%) in the non-URS group. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the cumulative IVR rate was higher in the URS group than in the non-URS group (all P<0.05), regardless of whether patients had a history of bladder cancer (BC) or not, while PFS was lower in the URS group than in the non-URS group (P=0.007). Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that URS (P=0.031) and complicated renal pelvis tumor and ureteral tumor (P=0.004) were independent risk factors for IVR. 【Conclusion】 Preoperative URS increases the incidence of IVR in patients with UTUC, and routine preoperative use of URS is not recommended.

Rotator cuff injury often leads to shoulder pain and dysfunction. For the injured rotator cuff tendon without continuous interruption, conservative treatment is often used. However, the shoulder is used frequent in daily life, which makes that the rotator cuff injury generally shows gradual aggravation and eventually progresses to complete tear due to poor blood supply of the rotator cuff tendon tissue and weak repair ability. In order to reverse the pathophysiological changes after rotator cuff injury and promote the repair of injured rotator cuff tendon, a series of conservative treatments for rotator cuff injury have been explored. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is one of the representative treatments, but its molecular biological mechanism in promoting rotator cuff repair is still unclear. Therefore, the authors review the progress of ESWT for rotator cuff injury from aspects of the molecular biological mechanism and clinical application status, so as to provide a reference for future researches and clinical application of ESWT.
