Objective:To review the clinical status based on the best evidence of drug administration in patients with dysphagia, systematically analyze the obstacle factors and promoting factors in the process of evidence transformation, and formulate reform strategies.Methods:Based on the evidence-based nursing research method and the guidance of the Ottawa Model of Research Use (OMRU), the review indicators were developed based on the best evidence. The current status of clinical practice behaviors of 223 patients and 75 nurses in the Neurology, Neurosurgery and Geriatric departments of the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University were reviewed from July to December 2021.Based on the results of the review, qualitative interviews were conducted with 32 potential adopters, and content analysis was used to assess the barriers and contributing factors to the clinical translation of evidence in three aspects: evidence-based change, potential adopters and practice environment, so as to develop effective strategies.Results:Based on the 22 best evidence selected, the evidence-based team developed 25 review indicators to carry out clinical review, showing that the compliance rate of 16 indicators were less than 60%. By analyzing and summarizing the interview results of potential adopters, the main obstacles leading to the low compliance rate of nurses were analyzed as follows: evidence-based reform changed the traditional work mode, and the application of evidence was not convenient; at the level of potential adopters, nurses had poor knowledge and practice, heavy work burden, and low awareness of patients and caregivers; at the level of practice environment, there was lack of nursing norms and procedures for clinical transformation of evidence, and the channels of multi-disciplinary collaboration and communication were not smooth. The main promoting factors were the perfect supervision mechanism of evidence-based nursing projects, the evidence-based group had rich experience in evidence transformation, the management was willing to change, and the practitioners were good at innovation.Conclusions:There is still a large gap between the clinical practice and the best evidence of drug administration in patients with dysphagia. The promoting factors should be fully utilized to overcome the obstacles and implement improvements to promote the effective transformation of evidence into clinical practice.

Objective To explore the association between green space and the risk of dyslipidemia. Methods ^“Dyslipidemia^” and ^“ Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI)^” were used as search terms to search PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases for studies up to September 2023. ARHQ statistical assessment and review tool and NOS scale were employed to evaluate the quality of the studies. R 4.3.1 software was used for meta-analysis. Results A total of 11 studies were included, of which 5 cross-sectional studies and 5 cohort studies were rated as ^“high quality^”. The results of meta-analysis showed that an increase in NDVI in some buffer zones was associated with reduced risks of hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, low HDL-C, and high LDL-C, while an increase in NDVI in 100m buffer zone was significantly associated with reduced risks of all these four diseases, with hypercholesterolemia (OR=0.87, P<0.05), hypertriglyceridemia (OR=0.94, P<0.05), low HDL-C (OR=0.95, P<0.05), and high LDL-C (OR=0.87, P<0.05). Sensitivity analysis suggested that the results of most meta-analyses were robust. Conclusion With the increase in green space near residential areas, the risk of dyslipidemia may decrease.

Objective:To investigate clinical significance of WDR4 gene expression,prognosis and immune infiltration in lung adenocarcinoma(LUAD).Methods:Clinicopathological data and WDR4 mRNA expression data of 535 patients with LUAD were collected through TCGA database,WDR4 protein expression data of 111 patients with LUAD were collected through CPTAC database.Associations between WDR4 expression and various clinicopathological features,as well as with overall survival in LUAD were ana-lyzed by R software.Diagnostic value of WDR4 expression in LUAD were assessed by ROC.Correlation between WDR4 expression and immune infiltration in tumor microenvironment in LUAD were investigated by Estimates and ssGSEA algorithms.Results:WDR4 mRNA expression in LUAD was significantly higher than that in normal lung tissues(all P<0.001).Protein expression of WDR4 in LUAD was also significantly up-regulated(P<0.05).Univariate analysis showed that expression of WDR4 was correlated with lymph node metastasis(P<0.05).Log-rank test showed that overall survival of patients with LUAD in WDR4 high expression group was significantly lower than that in low expression group(P=0.004).Multivariate Cox analysis revealed that T stage,lymph node metasta-sis and WDR4 mRNA expression remained independently associated with prognosis of LUAD patients.Death risk in patients with high expression of WDR4 mRNA was 1.478 times that of patients with low expression(95%CI:1.041～2.097).ROC curve analysis showed that WDR4 mRNA expression predicted diagnosis of LUAD to high extent(AUC=0.912,95%CI:0.885～0.935).High expression of WDR4 was negatively correlated with tumor microenvironment immune infiltration(all P<0.05).Conclusion:WDR4 expression in LUAD is significantly higher than that in normal lung tissue,and high WDR4 expression indicates poor prognosis in patients with LUAD.High expression of WDR4 inhibits immune infiltration in tumor microenvironment.WDR4 may be a novel potential biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis of patients with LUAD and therapeutic target.

Objective:To explore the therapeutic mechanism of electroacupuncture(EA)in treating Parkinson disease(PD)using Tandem mass tag(TMT)quantitative proteomics technology. Methods:Forty-eight PD patients were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group,with 24 patients in each group.The control group received routine drug treatment,while the observation group received EA in addition to the routine drug treatment.EA was administered for 30 min per session,3 times a week,for a total of 12 weeks.Nine patients from each group were randomly selected to provide peripheral blood serum samples before and after treatment for TMT quantitative proteomics analysis.Differentially expressed proteins between the two groups were compared,and bioinformatics analysis was performed.The screened differentially expressed proteins were validated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Results:In the observation group,scores on the unified Parkinson disease rating scale(UPDRS),UPDRS Ⅱ,and UPDRS Ⅲ were significantly reduced after treatment(P<0.05).In the control group,these scores tended to increase,but the changes were not statistically significant(P>0.05).After treatment,the UPDRS and UPDRS Ⅲ scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The observation group showed 62 differentially expressed proteins,while the control group had 36.Compared to the control group,the observation group had 142 differentially expressed proteins.These proteins were primarily involved in the cyclic adenosine monophosphate(cAMP)signaling pathway,T helper(Th)1 and Th2 cell differentiation,ATP-binding cassette transporter,vascular endothelial growth factor signaling pathway,and high-affinity immunoglobulin E receptor(FcεRI)signaling pathway.ELISA verification indicated that after EA treatment,the levels of α-Synuclein(αSyn)and heat shock protein beta 1(HSPB1)in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05),while the regulator of G-protein signaling 10(RGS10)level was significantly higher(P<0.05). Conclusion:EA,combined with routine drug therapy,can significantly improve clinical symptoms of PD,potentially through the regulation of the cAMP signaling pathway and the contents of differentially expressed proteins of αSyn,HSPB1,and RGS10.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare and analyze the feasibility and long-term efficacy of prostatic capsule-sparing (PCS) and nerve-sparing (NS) radical cystectomy in the treatment of bladder cancer. Methods: From June 2004 to December 2021, our institution treated and followed 145 patients who underwent radical cystectomy with neobladder reconstruction for over a year. These patients were divided into 2 groups: PCS (n=74) and NS (n=71). To minimize potential biases, 1:1 propensity score matching was utilized to compare oncological outcomes, functional outcomes, and complications between the groups. Additionally, Kaplan-Meier analysis and the log-rank test were used to evaluate survival differences between the PCS and NS groups. Results: The median follow-up durations for PCS and NS were 155 and 122 months, respectively. After adjusting for propensity scores, a total of 96 patients (48 in each group) were included for further analysis. Kaplan-Meier curves showed no statistically significant differences in metastasis-free probability (P=0.206), cancer-specific survival (P=0.091), and overall survival (P=0.208). The daytime urinary control (UC) rate at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively was 72.9%, 91.7%, and 97.9% in the PCS group and 47.9%, 79.2%, and 91.7% in the NS group, respectively (P=0.012, P=0.083, and P=0.362). The nocturnal UC rate was 54.2%, 85.4%, and 95.8% in the PCS group, and 31.3%, 60.4%, and 83.3% in the NS group, respectively (P=0.023, P=0.006, and P=0.091). Regarding erectile function recovery, 62.5% of patients in the PCS group and 22.9% in the NS group returned to preoperative levels (P<0.001). Conclusions PCS outperformed NS in restoring UC and sexual function and did not affect oncological outcomes. However, PCS was associated with a higher risk of complications linked to bladder-neck obstruction.

Background Aedes albopictus is the dominant mosquito species in residential areas in Shanghai. There are many types of small containers with accumulated water in residential areas, providing a large number of breeding environments for Aedes alpopicuts and leading to an increasing transmission risk of mosquito-borne diseases. Objective To use random forest to predict breeding of Aedes mosquitoes in small aquatic container habitat in two concentrated reconstruction communities of rural areas in Shanghai, and to understand associated influence of environmental factors on the breeding of Aedes mosquitoes in the process of urbanization.Methods Small-scale habitat surveys of Aedes mosquitoes were carried out in two suburb concentrated reconstruction communities (Community A and B) in Shanghai, and the environment where the habitat was located was recorded and analyzed in both communities. The habitat where eggs, larvae, or pupae were found was recorded as positive. Spatial weight matrix was applied on a household basis, and global Moran's I index was used to carry out spatial autocorrelation analysis on the small-scale habitat and positive habitat in the environment of the two communities. When Moran's I is greater than 0, it means that the data present a positive spatial correlation; when Moran's I is less than 0, it means that the data are spatially negatively correlated; when Moran's I is 0, the spatial distribution is random. Combining the results of P and Z values, we explored the spatial distribution characteristics of small-scale habitat and positive habitat in the community environment. Random forest algorithm in machine learning was used to classify and sort environmental-related factors, and predict the breeding of Aedes mosquitoes in small aquatic habitat; receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to carry out model fitting evaluation. Results The environmental factors including building location (χ²=23.35, P<0.001), open space (χ²=8.83, P=0.003), and having trees (χ²=11.02, P=0.001) had a significant impact on the positive rate of small-scale habitat. The results of spatial characteristics analysis showed that the global Moran's I index of small-scale habitat was −0.092 (Z=−1.09, P=0.274) in Community A and 0.034 (Z=0.52, P=0.602) in Community B, and the global Moran's I index of positive habitat was −0.092 (Z=−1.14, P=0.255) in Community A and 0.070 (Z=0.95, P=0.342) in Community B. Since the P values of Community A and B were greater than 0.1 and the Z values were between −1.65 and 1.65, for both small-scale habitat and positive habitat the spatial characteristics were randomly distributed and no significant spatial aggregation was found. In the fitted random forest algorithm classification prediction model with the top 10 characteristic factors of importance, the area under curve (AUC) value was 0.95, and the prediction fitting effect was satisfactory. The results of classification and sorting indicated that counts of household small-scale habitat and positive habitat were the most important factors for breeding. Conclusion The random forest model constructed by environmental factor indicators can be used to predict the breeding situation of Aedes mosquitoes in small-scale aquatic habitat, and provide a basis for scientific prevention and control of mosquito breeding for the target area.

To investigate the therapeutic effects of oral osthole on streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetes mellitus(T1DM) mice and explore its internal mechanism. METHODS: The diabetes model induced by STZ was established. Mice were randomly divided into control group, STZ model group, STZ+osthole group (20 mg/kg). Body weight, blood glucose, urine protein, blood urea nitrogen and creatinine were observed to detect renal function. The degree of renal tissue damage was detected by H&E staining and PAS staining, and the degree of renal fibrosis was detected by Sirius Red staining. CD68 and F4/80 immunofluorescence staining was used to observe the infiltration of macrophages in kidney tissue. The mRNA expressive levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) in renal tissue were detected by RT-qPCR. The protein expressive levels of phospho-NF-κB p65, NF-κB p65, IκBα, phospho-IκBα, phospho-p38 and p38 were detected by Western blot in renal tissue. RESULTS: Compared with the STZ model group, the levels of urinary protein, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine were significantly decreased after osthole treatment (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The renal structure disorder, mesangial matrix area, collagen fiber accumulation, and macrophage infiltration were significantly improved (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The expression of mRNA of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.001). The expression of phospho-NF-κB p65, phospho-IκBα and phospho-p38 were significantly down-regulated (P<0.05 or P<0.01), while the protein expression level of NF-κB p65, IκBα was up-regulated (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Osthole has a protective effect on kidney injury caused by diabetes and inhibits NF-κB and p38/MAPK signaling pathway.
