Objective:To explore the influencing factors for falls in inpatients during the rehabilitation period of stroke and research humanistic care strategies.Methods:Using a retrospective case-control study design,32 stroke patients who experienced falls in the rehabilitation department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2019 to December 2022 were selected as the observation group,and 64 stroke patients who were hospitalized in the same department during the same period and did not suffer from falls were matched 1:2 by age and gender as the control group.Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the influencing factors for falls in inpatients during the rehabilitation period of stroke.Results:The results of multivariate analysis showed that a history of falls(OR=8.688,P=0.036),a fall risk score(OR=1.615,P=0.018),sleep disorders(OR=5.378,P=0.031),malnutrition(OR=11.071,P=0.035),and osteoporosis(OR=15.831,P=0.006)were the independent risk factors for falls in inpatients during the rehabilitation period of stroke.Conclusion:There are many influencing factors for falls in inpatients during the rehabilitation period of stroke.Medical staff should take effective intervention measures based on different risk factors and implement humanistic care to reduce the incidence of falls in inpatients during the rehabilitation period of stroke.

Objective To analyze the efficacy and safety of double-ring sandwich procedure in the treatment of acute A-type aortic dissection root.Methods The clinical data of 103 patients with acute A-type aortic dissection treated by double-ring sandwich procedure in our center from October 2020 to May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed to investigate the surgical effect,short-term cardiac structural changes and short-term postoperative complications.Results Needle hemostasis was applied in 11.65％of all patients.The amount of red blood cell transfusion during the perioperative period was(2.95±1.97)U,plasma was(543.68±208.48)ml,and blood platelet was(0.08±0.30)U.The residual aortic regurgitation,cardiac function and pericardial effusion were significantly improved at 2 weeks after operation(P＜0.05).The proportion of residual false lumen in the aortic root was significantly reduced after operation(P＜0.05).The length of hospital stay,duration of intubation,and drainage within 24 hours after surgery were less.The incidence of postoperative short-term complications such as secondary thoracotomy,cerebral infarction,cerebral hemorrhage,hemofiltration,tracheal incision and death was low.Conclusions Double-ring sandwich procedure in the treatment of acute A-type aortic dissection can effectively block the false lumen of aortic root dissection,reduce the risk of aortic intimal avulsion,and the operation is safe and effective.

Objective To analyze the predictive value of fecal form for the quality of bowel preparation in patients scheduled for colonoscopy,identify risk factors for bowel preparation failure,and develop and validate a risk prediction model.Methods This was a prospective cohort study using convenience sampling.Patients scheduled for colonoscopy in the Digestive Department of a tertiary A hospital in Jiangsu Province from June to December 2022 were included in the modeling cohort.General information sheet and the Bristol Stool Form Scale(BSFS)were used for data collection.Patients were categorized into a successful bowel preparation group and a bowel preparation failure group based on the quality of bowel preparation.The optimal cutoff value for BSFS was determined using the best cutoff value method.Logistic regression analysis was employed to identify risk factors for bowel preparation failure,and a nomogram risk prediction model was constructed.Patients undergoing colonoscopy in the same hospital from January to February 2023 were served as the validation cohort.Results The modeling cohort included 569 patients,and the validation cohort included 212 patients,with bowel preparation failure rates of 19.0％and 19.8％,respectively.The risk prediction model formula derived from logistic regression analysis was P=-2.209+0.619 × hospitalized patients+0.635 × age≥65 years-0.710 × previous colonoscopy history+2.031 × BSFS type 1～2.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for the model was 0.751,with a sensitivity of 54.6％,a specificity of 85.9％,and the optimal cutoff value was 0.225,corresponding to a risk score of 80 for bowel preparation failure.The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed x2=4.429,P=0.351.External validation demonstrated an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.775,indicating good model fit and high predictive value.Conclusion The incidence of bowel preparation failure in colonoscopy patients is relatively high.Patients aged 65 years,hospitalized patients,those with no history of colonoscopy,and those with BSFS type 1～2 are more likely to experience bowel preparation failure.The risk prediction model developed in this study has good predictive performance and can provide a basis for clinical nurses to quickly assess the risk of bowel preparation failure in patients.

BACKGROUND: In light of the significant clinical benefits of antibody-drug conjugates in clinical trials, the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-low category in breast cancers has gained increasing attention. Therefore, we studied the clinicopathological characteristics of Chinese patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive/HER2-low early-stage breast cancer and developed a recurrence risk prediction model. METHODS: Female patients with HR-positive/HER2-low early-stage breast cancer treated in 29 hospitals of the Chinese Society of Breast Surgery (CSBrS) from Jan 2015 to Dec 2016 were enrolled. Their clinicopathological data and prognostic information were collected, and machine learning methods were used to analyze the prognostic factors. RESULTS: In total, 25,096 patients were diagnosed with breast cancer in 29 hospitals of CSBrS from Jan 2015 to Dec 2016, and clinicopathological data for 6486 patients with HER2-low early-stage breast cancer were collected. Among them, 5629 patients (86.79%) were HR-positive. The median follow-up time was 57 months (4, 76 months); the 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate was 92.7%, and the 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 97.7%. In total, 412 cases (7.31%) of metastasis were observed, and 124 (2.20%) patients died. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that T stage, N stage, lymphovascular thrombosis, Ki-67 index, and prognostic stage were associated with recurrence and metastasis ( P <0.05). A recurrence risk prediction model was established using the random forest method and exhibited a sensitivity of 81.1%, specificity of 71.7%, positive predictive value of 74.1%, and negative predictive value of 79.2%. CONCLUSION: Most of patients with HER2-low early-stage breast cancer were HR-positive, and patients had favorable outcome; tumor N stage, lymphovascular thrombosis, Ki-67 index, and tumor prognostic stage were prognostic factors. The HR-positive/HER2-low early-stage breast cancer recurrence prediction model established based on the random forest method has a good reference value for predicting 5-year recurrence events.

Objective To explore the role of miR-199a-3p in osteoblast proliferation induced by fluid shear stress (FSS) and the potential molecular mechanism. Methods Osteoblast MC3T3-E1 was treated with 1. 2 Pa FSS with time gradients of 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 min, respectively. MC3T3-E1 cells were transfected with miR-199a-3p mimic or miR-199a-3p inhibitor. MC3T3-E1 cells were transfected with miR-199a-3p mimic and itsnegative control and then treated with 1. 2 Pa FSS for 45 min. The pc DNA NC, pc DNA-CABLES -1, si RNA NC and si RNA CABLES-1 were transfected into MC3T3-E1 cells. The pc DNA-CABLES-1 and mir-199a-3p mimic and SI NA-cables-1 and miR-199a-3p inhibitor were co-transfected, respectively. Cell activity was detected by CCK-8 assay. Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to detect expression levels of CABLES-1, miR-199a-3p, CDK 6, Cyclin D1 and PCNA. Luciferase reporting assay was used to detect targeting relationship between CABLES-1 and miR-199a-3p. Immunofluorescence was used to detect protein expression of CABLES-1.Western blot was used to detect protein expression of CABLES-1, CDK 6, PCNA and Cyclin D1. Results Mir- 199a-3p in MC3T3-E1 cells was significantly down-regulated by FSS. Over-expressed miR-199a-3p inhibitedosteoblast proliferation, and down-regulated miR-199a-3p expression promoted osteoblast proliferation. miR-199a- 3p could reverse the FSS-induced proliferation in osteoblasts. Dual luciferase assay showed that miR-199a-3p targeted to CABLES-1 and over-expressed miR-199a-3p inhibited expression of CBALES-1 protein. CABLES-1 could promote proliferation of osteoblasts. miR-199a-3p inhibited osteoblast proliferation induced by FSS through CABLES-1. Conclusions FSS-induced osteoblast proliferation can be realized by down-regulated miR-199a-3p expression via targeting CABLES-1. The findings in this study provide new direction for researches on mechanism of FSS-induced osteoblast proliferation, as well as new ideas for future research on clinical application of mechanical loading in the treatment of bone and joint diseases.

BACKGROUND: : Breast cancer with low-positive human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression has triggered further refinement of evaluation criteria for HER2 expression. We studied the clinicopathological features of early-stage breast cancer with low-positive HER2 expression in China and analyzed prognostic factors. METHODS: : Clinical and pathological data and prognostic information of patients with early-stage breast cancer with low-positive HER2 expression treated by the member units of the Chinese Society of Breast Surgery and Chinese Society of Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, from January 2015 to December 2016 were collected. The prognostic factors of these patients were analyzed. RESULTS: : Twenty-nine hospitals provided valid cases. From 2015 to 2016, a total of 25,096 cases of early-stage breast cancer were treated, 7642 (30.5%) of which had low-positive HER2 expression and were included in the study. After ineligible cases were excluded, 6486 patients were included in the study. The median follow-up time was 57 months (4-76 months). The disease-free survival rate was 92.1% at 5 years, and the overall survival rate was 97.4% at 5 years. At the follow-up, 506 (7.8%) cases of metastasis and 167 (2.6%) deaths were noted. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that tumor stage, lymphvascular invasion, and the Ki67 index were related to recurrence and metastasis (P < 0.05). The recurrence risk prediction model was established using a machine learning model and showed that the area under the receiving operator characteristic curve was 0.815 (95% confidence interval: 0.750-0.880). CONCLUSIONS: : Early-stage breast cancer patients with low-positive HER2 expression account for 30.5% of all patients. Tumor stage, lymphvascular invasion, and the Ki67 index are factors affecting prognosis. The recurrence prediction model for breast cancer with low-positive HER2 expression based on a machine learning model had a good clinical reference value for predicting the recurrence risk at 5 years.

BACKGROUND: Pertuzumab has been approved for application in China by the National Medical Products Administration, and both national and international guidelines make recommendations for the use of neoadjuvant treatment with trastuzumab or trastuzumab + pertuzumab plus chemotherapy regimens for patients with indications. The goal of this study was to investigate the short-term clinical efficacy of the neoadjuvant therapies trastuzumab and trastuzumab+pertuzumab for patients with early human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer in China. METHODS: A real-world study was conducted using the clinicopathological data of patients with early HER2-positive breast cancer who were admitted to the member hospitals of the Chinese Society of Breast Surgery, Chinese Surgical Society of Chinese Medical Association between March 2019 and December 2020. This study analyzed the efficacy and tolerance of trastuzumab+chemotherapy and trastuzumab+pertuzumab+chemotherapy in patients with early HER2-positive breast cancer. The Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1 was adopted to evaluate clinical efficacy. The pathological efficacy was evaluated using the MillerPayne grade. The Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (version 5.0) was adopted to evaluate adverse events (AEs). The propensity scores were subjected to propensity score matching using the R language (1:1 matching with a maximum allowable difference of 0.05 between the two groups). Efficacy was compared using the chi-square test, and correlation analysis was performed using linear regression. RESULTS: A total of 1032 patients with early HER2-positive breast cancer met the enrollment criteria and were included in this study. Among these patients, 472 received neoadjuvant trastuzumab+chemotherapy (the trastuzumab group), and 560 received neoadjuvant trastuzumab+pertuzumab+chemotherapy (the trastuzumab+pertuzumab group). The overall pathologic complete response (pCR) rate was 47.2% (487/1032), while the pCR rates of the trastuzumab and trastuzumab+pertuzumab groups were 34.5% (163/472) and 57.9% (324/560), respectively, and the difference was significant (P < 0.001). The incidence of grade 4 AEs was 24/321 (7.5%) in the trastuzumab+pertuzumab group, and there were no cases in which the left ventricular ejection fraction decreased by more than 10%. CONCLUSIONS Patients in the trastuzumab+pertuzumab group had a higher pCR rate than those in the trastuzumab group, and the toxic side effects were tolerable.

Objective:To screen the time points of high survival rate and efferocytosis dysfunction of rat alveolar macrophages stimulated by cigarette smoke extract (CSE), establish an in vitro model of alveolar macrophage efferocytosis function, and study chronic respiratory diseases with chronic inflammatory reaction as the main pathological changes. Methods:① Time point screening experiment: rat alveolar macrophages (NR8383 cells) were cultured in vitro, and the cells in logarithmic growth phase were divided into blank control group (100 μL complete medium) and 5% CSE group (90 μL complete medium + 10 μL 100% CSE). Alma blue method was used to detect the effect of 5% CSE on the activity of NR8383 cells at 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours. ② Apoptosis induction experiment: rat type Ⅱ alveolar epithelial cells (RLE-6TN cells) were cultured in vitro as phagocytic target cells of NR8383 cells, and the cells in logarithmic growth phase were divided into blank control group and 10, 30 and 60 minutes groups after ultraviolet exposure (apoptosis was induced by 30 000 μJ/cm 2 ultraviolet irradiation for 15 minutes). Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis rate of RLE-6TN cells cultured for 10, 30 and 60 minutes after ultraviolet exposure. ③ Cell efferocytosis experiment: NR8383 cells in logarithmic phase were divided into blank control group and 5% CSE group. Two hours before NR8383 cells were stimulated by CSE for 6, 12 and 24 hours, RLE-6TN cells were exposed to ultraviolet to induce apoptosis, and the RLE-6TN cell suspension was added to NR8383 cells (the ratio of RLE-6TN cells to NR8383 cells was 5∶1). Flow cytometry was used to detect the efferocytosis rate of NR8383 cells to RLE-6TN cells at different time points treated with 5% CSE. Results:① Compared with the blank control group, the activity of NR8383 cells significantly decreased after treatment with 5% CSE for 48 hours [cell reduction rate: (68.5±4.1)% vs. (73.6±2.3)%, P < 0.05]. However, there were no significant differences when the activities of NR8383 cells treated with 5% CSE for 6, 12 and 24 hours were compared with the blank control group, so these three time points were selected for the subsequent establishment of alveolar macrophage cell efferocytosis dysfunction in vitro model experiment. ② Compared with the blank control group, the apoptosis rate of RLE-6TN cells significantly increased at 10, 30 and 60 minutes after ultraviolet exposure [(66.87±8.63)%, (85.51±2.39)%, (96.13±2.74)% vs. (9.13±3.17)%, all P < 0.01] in a time-dependent manner. Considering that it taked about 50 minutes for RLE-6TN cells to be labeled with PKH26 membrane labeling probe, 10 minutes after ultraviolet exposure was selected to label RLE-6TN cells. ③ Compared with the blank control group, the efferocytosis function of NR8383 cells was significantly decreased after treatment with 5% CSE for 12 hours [cell efferocytosis rate: (33.64±1.30)% vs. (44.02±2.71)%, P < 0.01], but there was no significant effect on the efferocytosis function of NR8383 cells at 6 hours and 24 hours. Conclusions:CSE can induce alveolar macrophage cell efferocytosis dysfunction. Based on the test results of the effect of 5% CSE on NR8383 cell activity and cell efferocytosis function, 12 hours with high survival rate and weak efferocytosis effect of NR8383 cells can be selected as the in vitro model condition of alveolar macrophage cell efferocytosis dysfunction.

Objective:To dynamically observe the effect of N-acetylserotonin (NAS) on the expression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) protein in retina of retinal ischemia reperfusion injury (RIRI) rats, and to explore the mechanism.Methods:By using random number table method, 90 healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into sham operation group ( n=10), RIRI group ( n=40), and NAS group ( n=40). The right eye was as the experimental eye. In the RIRI group and NAS group, the anterior chamber high intraocular pressure method was used to establish the RIRI model. In the NAS group, 10 mg/kg NAS was injected intraperitoneally before modeling and 30 minutes after modeling. At 6, 12, 24, 72 h after modeling, hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the pathological changes of the retina, and the retinal ganglion cells (RGC) were counted. Each group was detected by immunohistochemical staining and Western blot about the relative expression of TNF-α, nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) protein in the rat retina. Oneway analysis of variance was used for differences between groups. The general linear regression method was used to analyze the correlation between the relative expression changes of TNF-α protein and the changes of Nrf2 and HO-1 protein expression after NAS intervention. Results:Optical microscope observation revealed that the retinal edema of rats in the RIRI group was observed at 6, 12, and 24 h after modeling; the thickness of the retina in the NAS group was significantly thinner than that in the RIRI group, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=9.645, 477.150, 2.432; P<0.01). At 6, 12, 24, and 72 h after modeling, the retinal RGC counts in the NAS group were significantly higher than those in the RIRI group, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=12.225, 12.848, 117.655, 306.394; P<0.05). The results of immunohistochemical staining and Western blot showed that 6 h after modeling, the relative expression of TNF-α protein in the retina of the RIRI group increased significantly compared with that in the sham operation group, reaching a higher level at 12 h, and decreased at 24 and 72 h. But all were significantly higher than the sham operation group, the difference was statistically significant (immunohistochemical staining: F=105.893, 1 356.076, 434.026, 337.351; P<0.01; Western blot: F=92.906, 534.948, 327.600, 385.324; P<0.01). At different time points after modeling, the relative expression of TNF-α protein in the retina of the NAS group was significantly lower than that of the RIRI group (immunohistochemical staining: F=15.408, 570.482, 21.070, 13.767; P<0.05; Western blot: F=12.618, 115.735, 13.176, 111.108; P<0.05), but still higher than the sham operation group (immunohistochemical staining: F=40.709, 151.032, 156.321, 216.035; P<0.01; Western blot: F=33.943, 79.729, 74.057, 64.488; P<0.01), the difference was statistically significant; 12 h after modeling, Nrf2 in the retina of the NAS group (immunohistochemical staining: F=51.122, P<0.05; Western blot: F=33.972, P<0.05), HO-1 (immunohistochemical staining: F=30.750, P<0.05; Western blot: F=18.283, P<0.05) protein relative expression was significantly higher than that of RIRI group, and the differences were statistically significant. The results of linear regression analysis showed that the difference in the number of TNF-α + cells in the RIRI group and the NAS group was negatively correlated with the difference in the number of Nrf2 + and HO-1 + cells ( r 2=0.923, 0.936; P<0.01). Conclusions:NAS can inhibit the expression of TNF-α protein in the retina of RIRI rats and reduce RIRI. The mechanism may be related to the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.

Abstract The visual health of children and adolescents in China has become a major issue that is relevant to the nation s present and its future. This article analyzed the value of map reading and searching for specific features during orienteering projects for myopia prevention and control. The findings suggest that orienteering exercises show good regulatory effects on eye muscles, effectively improve concentration, and help to stimulate mental activity and visual system. Targeted exercises, including scanning maps for specific features, is beneficial for myopia prevention and control. It is proposed that, by changing the teaching style of cross-country orienteering, teaching space, and teaching scene, exercises can be tailored to treat and relieve eye strain, as well as to prevent and control myopia, which is essential to promote the visual health of children and adolescents.
