ObjectiveTo screen optimized protocol of acupuncture for post-prostatectomy urinary incontinence （PPUI） patients， and to provide evidence for clinical practice. MethodsMEDLINE， Embase， Cochrane Library， Web of Science， Chinese Biomedical Literature Database， China National Knowledge Infrastructure， WanFang and VIP databases were searched to collect randomized controlled trials of acupuncture for PPUI. The search was conducted from the establishment of the database to February 1， 2024， and the quality of the literature was evaluated to exclude the studies with a high risk of overall bias or modified Jadad ＜3， and constructed acupuncture protocol and performed meta-analysis. We used International Consultation on Urinary Incontinence Short Form （ICI-Q-SF） scores， quality of life scores， overall effective rate， and modified Jadad scores as beneficial indicators， and the number of acupoints selected， stimulation duration， the number of acupuncture， and the duration of the treatment course as costly indicators， to derive the standardized protocol matrix， and used the entropy method to determine the weights of the different decision-making indicators， and finally combined with the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution （TOPSIS） for comprehensive evaluation. ResultsNine studies met the criteria， and the acupuncture treatments involved were constructed as six protocols including electrical acupoint stimulation with low-frequency， electroacupuncture at four acupoints of sacral region， replenishing qi and tonifying kidney acupuncture， body acupuncture plus pelvic floor muscle training， auricular acupuncture， and electroacupuncture plus pelvic floor muscle training. The ICI-Q-SF， number of acupuncture sessions， and total effectiveness rate were given higher weights in the decision-making indexes， while the stimulation duration and the duration of treatment course were given lower weights； the entropy method of TOPSIS was used for the evaluation and proved that the best protocol was the electroacupuncture at four acupoints of sacral region which used continuous-wave electroacupuncture with a frequency of 2 Hz for 60 min each time， and required the needle sensation to radiate to the root of the penis， with the advantages of streamlined selection of acupoints， a significant reduction in ICI-Q-SF， and an increase in the effectiveness rate. ConclusionThe final optimized protocol was electroacupuncture at four acupoints of sacral region， which can provide an evidence-based basis for clinical decision-making and guideline development.

Objective:To study the clinical value of the ISBAR communication model based on nursing priorities in nursing ward rounds.Methods:Using a quasi-experiment method, 104 patients who received secondary and tertiary care from April to June 2020 were set as the control group, and 122 patients who received secondary and tertiary care from July to September 2020 were set up as the experimental group, with non-randomized method. The experimental group used the ISBAR communication model based on nursing priorities for nursing ward rounds, and the control group used the traditional method for nursing ward rounds. The abilities of bedside nurses collecting the patients′condition, the bedside nurses′ condition observation and the nurses′ critical thinking were compared between the two groups, and the patients' nursing quality and satisfaction were also compared.Results:The scores of the bedside nurses′ knowledge of the patients′ condition were 81.14±3.09 in the test group and 75.90±2.84 in the control group, with statistically significant difference ( t value was -12.88, P<0.01). The scores of the bedside nurses′ ability in observing patients′ condition were 140.50 (137.00, 144.50) in the experimental group and 135.50 (128.75, 139.00) in the control group, with statistically significant difference ( Z value was -3.399, P<0.01). The scores of the Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory Chinese-version (CTDI-CV) were 309.82±36.33 in the experimental group and 286.86±33.54 in the control group, with statistically significant difference ( t value was -2.177, P<0.05). The scores of patient care quality evaluation were 62.50 (60.00, 64.00) in the experimental group and 59.00 (55.00, 61.50) in the control group, with statistically significant difference ( Z value was -6.47, P<0.01). The patient discharge satisfaction score of the experimental group was 53.00 (48.75, 55.00), and that of the control group was 51.00 (44.00, 54.00), with statistically significant difference ( Z value was -3.56, P<0.01). Conclusions:The application of ISBAR communication model based on nursing priorities in nursing ward rounds had a significant promotion effect on the improvement of nurses' abilities of collecting the patients′ condition, observing patients′ condition, and critical thinking, and can effectively improve nursing care quality and patients′ satisfaction.

Objective: To improve the recognition of ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone syndrome. Methods: The diagnosis and treatment of a 43 years old female patient with multiorgan involvement mimic dermatomyositis was analyzed and discussed. Results: The patient presented with fatigue, edema, skin pigmentation, neuropsychiatric abnormalities, hypertension, hypokalemia, hyperglycemia and other systemic involvement, was finally diagnosed with ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone syndrome caused by paraganglioma of the anterior mediastinum. After surgical removal of the tumor, her clinical symptoms immediately relieved, meanwhile related hormone levels returned to normal. Conclusion Although paraganglioma-induced ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone syndrome is rare in clinical practice, more attention should be paid to this specific situation.

Objective To investigate effect of the transtheoretical model and stages of change (TTM) on self-management paradigm,serum calcium and phosphorus levels in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD).Methods Total 140 MHD patients were separated into two groups as the intervention group (65 of 70 cases completed with TTM) and the control group (63 of 70 cases completed with routine nursing care) by random number table.Data obtained by using hyperphosphatemia related knowledge questionnaires and Self-management Rating Scale before and after intervention.The levels of serum calcium and phosphorus between the above groups were compared.Results The scores of self-management behavior were higher in control group after 3 months intervention,the differences was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05),in which the scores of problem solving (2.97 ± 0.28),self care activities (2.99±0.28),relationships (3.13±0.35) and emotional treatment (2.80 ± 0.32) in experimental group was apparently higher than control group at the same time,the scores were (2.63±0.32),(2.67±0.38),(2.76±0.42),(2.44±0.36) respectively in conrtol group,t values were-0.907,-7.68,-6.03 and-8.43,respectively.And also,there was statistically significant difference between the two groups in serum phosphorus level [(1.81±0.49) mmol/L vs.(2.56±0.69) mmol/L],the product of calcium and phosphorus [(55.33±14.45) mg2/dl2 vs.(72.35±20.94) mg2/dl2],serum parathyroid hormone [238.00 (130.35,413.85) ng/L vs.297.75 (155.02,760.37) ng/L] (t=11.01,8.43,Z=-2.09,P＜0.05).Conclusions TTM is conducive to promote behavior change,improve self-management conduct,and also reduce serum phosphorus level in MHD patients.

Objective We reported 5 unusual cases of multiple myeloma (MM) initially presented as polyarthritis.Special attention should be paid to this very unusual scenario.Methods Five cases who presented initially as polyarthritis and finally diagnosed as MM were administered to Peking University People's Hospital and 11 cases from literature were reported.The clinical symptoms and laboratory parameters were analyzed respectively.Results The primarily affected joints were small joints,such as metacarpophalangeal joints,proximal interphalangeal joint,metatarsophalangeal and temporomandibular joints,but large joints such as wrists,elbows,shoulders,knees,ankle joints could be involved,too.Fourteen of 16 patients were misdiagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Renal dysfunction presenting as high level of serum creatinine or proteinuria was detected in 14 cases.Laboratory tests showed elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate or C reactive protein level in 13 cases.Anemia was detected in 9 cases.Hypercalcemia was detected in half of the patients.Hyperglobu-linemia was detected in 6 cases.The serum level of free M-protein was markedly elevated in 14 cases.Auto-antibodies were negative,except that rheumatoid factor was positive in 1 case.Conclusion It is important to pay attention to the clinical pictures presented as polyarthritis with negative autoantibodies,and associated with renal dysfunction,anemia and hypergammaglobulinemia.MM is important in the differential diagnosis.

Micromachining of capillary electrophoresis chips is described.The current in channels was determined versus the voltage applied on the chip.Using laser-induced fluorescence detection,the process of injection and separation on chips was recorded with charge-coupled device(CCD).With defferent voltge of reservoirs on glass chips,profiles of the sample plug were studied. The elctropherogram of hydrolysis product of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FTTC-OH) and arginine labeled by fluorescein isothiocyante(FTTC-Arg) was obtained.
