Objective To analyze the influencing factors of postoperative urinary tract infection in patients undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate with plasmakinetic energy(PKRP)and establish a risk prediction nomogram model.Methods The data of PKRP patients in Department of Urology,the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from December 2020 to September 2021 were selected as the modeling set,and the high-risk factors were screened by univariate analysis and Logistic regression analysis.The risk prediction nomogram model was constructed and verified internally and externally.Results The incidence of urinary tract infection after PKRP surgery was 15.38%.Multivariate analysis showed that age,other location infection,diabetes,preoperative catheterization,urethral injury,indwelling catheter material,hair coloring catheter replacement times and number of indwelling catheterization were risk factors for urinary tract infection(P<0.05).Internal verification(area under the curve was 0.875)and external verification(area under the curve was 0.869)show that the risk prediction nomogram model has good discrimination and accuracy.Conclusion The influencing factors of urinary tract infection after PKRP are complex.The risk prediction nomogram model has good prediction performance,which can provide a basis for the prevention and treatment of urinary tract infection after PKRP.

ObjectiveTo investigate the inhibitory effect of Mahuang Xixin Fuzitang on the migration of dendritic cells （DCs） in mice and its underlying mechanism. MethodMouse bone marrow-derived DCs were isolated and cultured. The morphological changes of the cells at different stages were observed under a microscope， and the CD11c⁺ proportion was detected by flow cytometry to identify DC purity. Cells were treated with Mahuang Xixin Fuzitang （1， 2， 5， 10， 20， 40， 50， 100 g·L^-1） for 24 hours， and the effect of Mahuang Xixin Fuzitang on cell proliferation was assessed using the cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay to determine the appropriate concentrations for treatment. After modeling by lipopolysaccharide （LPS） induction， DCs were divided into a blank group， a model group， and Mahuang Xixin Fuzitang groups （2， 4， 8 g·L^-1）. The expression of surface molecules CD80， CD86， and major histocompatibility complex-Ⅱ （MHC-Ⅱ） were detected by flow cytometry. Transwell chamber assay was used to observe cell migration. The levels of chemokine C-C-primitive receptor 7 （CCR7） and chemokine C-X-C-primitive receptor 4 （CXCR4） on the cell surface were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The expression of filamentous actin （F-actin） in the cell microfilament cytoskeleton was detected by immunofluorescence （IF） staining. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was employed to determine the mRNA expression levels of Ras homolog family member A （RhoA） and Rho-associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase 1 （ROCK1）. Western blot analysis was performed to detect the protein expression of RhoA and ROCK1. ResultCompared with the blank group， the model group exhibited significantly higher expression levels of CD80， CD86， and MHC-Ⅱ （P<0.01）， a significantly increased number of cells migrating to the lower chamber （P<0.01）， and significantly elevated levels of CCR7 and CXCR4 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Additionally， F-actin expression was significantly increased （P<0.01）， and both RhoA and ROCK1 mRNA and protein expression levels were significantly higher （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， treatment with Mahuang Xixin Fuzitang （2， 4， 8 g·L^-1） for 24 hours resulted in significantly lower expression levels of CD80， CD86， and MHC-Ⅱ （P<0.01）， a significantly reduced number of cells migrating to the lower chamber （P<0.05）， and significantly decreased levels of CCR7 and CXCR4 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Furthermore， F-actin expression was significantly reduced （P<0.01）， and both RhoA and ROCK1 mRNA and protein expression levels were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionMahuang Xixin Fuzitang can inhibit the migration of DCs in mice， and its mechanism of action may be related to reducing the activity of the Rho/ROCK signaling pathway， thereby affecting changes in the cell cytoskeleton.

With the increasing incidence of tic disorders in children，the treatment of tic disorders in children has attracted more and more attention. Drug therapy is the main treatment method at present，but not all cases are effective to drug therapy. As a new treatment method，noninvasive neuromodulation technology has made some progress in the treatment of tic disorders in children. Studies have shown that noninvasive neuromodulation techniques can reduce the severity of tics and have less side effects. This article reviews the application of noninvasive neuromodulation techniques in children with tic disorders，in order to provide new ideas for the treatment of children with tic disorders and improve the quality of their life．

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of normal mouse serum on radiation pneumonitis in mice and explore the possible mechanism.Methods Mouse models of radiation pneumonitis induced by thoracic radiation exposure were given intravenous injections of 100 μL normal mouse serum or normal saline immediately after the exposure followed by injections once every other day for a total of 8 injections.On the 15th day after irradiation,histopathological changes of the lungs of the mice were examined using HE staining,the levels of TNF-α,TGF-β,IL-1α and IL-6 in the lung tissue and serum were detected using ELISA,and the percentages of lymphocytes in the lung tissue were analyzed with flow cytometry.High-throughput sequencing of exosome miRNA was carried out to explore the changes in the signaling pathways.The mRNA expression levels of the immune-related genes were detected by qRT-PCR,and the protein expressions of talin-1,tensin2,FAK,vinculin,α-actinin and paxillin in the focal adhesion signaling pathway were detected with Western blotting.Results In the mouse models of radiation pneumonitis,injections of normal mouse serum significantly decreased the lung organ coefficient,lowered the levels of TNF-α,TGF-β,IL-1α and IL-6 in the serum and lung tissues,and ameliorated infiltration of CD45+,CD4+and Treg lymphocytes in the lung tissue(all P<0.05).The expression levels of Egfr and Pik3cd genes at both the mRNA and protein levels and the protein expressions of talin-1,tensin2,FAK,vinculin,α-actinin and paxillin were all significantly down-regulated in the mouse models after normal mouse serum treatment.Conclusion Normal mouse serum ameliorates radiation pneumonitis in mice by inhibiting the expressions of key proteins in the Focal adhesion signaling pathway.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is associated with the impairment of white matter (WM) tracts. The current study aimed to verify the utility of WM as the neuroimaging marker of AD with multisite diffusion tensor imaging datasets [321 patients with AD, 265 patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), 279 normal controls (NC)], a unified pipeline, and independent site cross-validation. Automated fiber quantification was used to extract diffusion profiles along tracts. Random-effects meta-analyses showed a reproducible degeneration pattern in which fractional anisotropy significantly decreased in the AD and MCI groups compared with NC. Machine learning models using tract-based features showed good generalizability among independent site cross-validation. The diffusion metrics of the altered regions and the AD probability predicted by the models were highly correlated with cognitive ability in the AD and MCI groups. We highlighted the reproducibility and generalizability of the degeneration pattern of WM tracts in AD.

Objective:To evaluate the preliminary effectiveness and safety of surgical peripheral iridectomy (SPI) combined with goniosynechilysis (GSL) and goniotomy (GT) in the treatment of advanced primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG).Methods:A multicenter observational case series study was performed.Thirty-five eyes of 27 patients with advanced PACG, who underwent SPI+ GSL+ GT with a follow-up of at least 6 months, were included from August 2021 to January 2022 at Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Handan City Eye Hospital, Shijiazhuang People's Hospital, West China Hospital of Sichuan University, and the Third Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University.The mean follow-up time was 9(7, 10) months.Pre- and post-operative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and intraocular pressure (IOP) were measured with an ETDRS chart and a Goldmann applanation tonometer, respectively.The number of anti-glaucoma medications applied before and after surgery was recorded, and the complications after surgery were analyzed.Success rate of surgery was calculated.Complete surgical success was defined as an IOP of 5-18 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) and 20% reduction from baseline without anti-glaucoma medication or reoperation.Qualified success was defined as achieving criterion of complete success under anti-glaucoma medications.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sen University (No.2021KYPJ177). Written informed consent was obtained from each subject.Results:The mean preoperative IOP was (30.83±8.87)mmHg, which was significantly decreased to (15.69±3.70)mmHg at 6 months after the surgery ( t=8.588, P<0.001), with a 44.00% (34.78%, 60.00%) decline of 13.00(8.00, 21.00)mmHg.The median number of anti-glaucoma medications was significantly reduced from 2(0, 3) preoperatively to 0 (0, 1) postoperatively ( Z=-3.659, P<0.001). The mean preoperative and postoperative 6-month BCVA were 0.80(0.63, 1.00) and 0.80(0.60, 1.00), respectively, showing no significant difference ( Z=-0.283, P=0.777). Complete surgical success rate was 62.86%(22/35), and the qualified success rate was 91.43%(32/35). Surgical complications mainly included hyphema (6/35), IOP spike (3/35), and shallow anterior chamber (4/35). There was no vision-threatening complication. Conclusions:SPI+ GSL+ GT is preliminarily effective and safe in the treatment of advanced PACG, which provides a new option for PACG.

Objective:To explore the effect of solution-focused approach on medication adherence in patients with cerebral ischemic stroke.Methods:A total of 120 patients with cerebral ischemic stroke from May to August 2019 in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University were divided into the experimental group and the control group by random digits table method with 60 cases in each group. The patients in the control group received the routine nursing in the hospital and extended nursing outside the hospital, while patients in the experimental group received the solution-focused approach based on the control group. The intervention effects of the two groups were evaluated by Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8), Beliefs about Medication Questionnaire(BMQ), Richard Gray's scoring method of medication compliance confidence and willingness to take medication, and the changes of blood pressure.Results:Finally, 57 cases were included in the control group and 58 cases in the experimental group. There was no significant difference in the scores of medication compliance between the two groups before intervention( P>0.05). The scores of the control group and the experimental group were 5.110 ± 1.194, 6.160 ± 1.064 at 1 month after intervention and 5.044 ± 1.010, 6.306 ± 0.685 at 3 months after intervention, the differences were statistically significant ( t=4.98, 7.83, both P<0.05).There was no significant difference in medication belief score, medication compliance confidence score, willingness to take medication score, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure between the control group and the experimental group before intervention( P>0.05). One month after intervention, those index mentioned above were (2.561 ±2.605) points, (7.123 ± 1.310) points, (6.368 ± 1.234) points, (131.86 ± 13.13) mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), (84.33 ± 7.05) mmHg in the control group, and (4.345 ± 3.006) points, (7.603 ± 1.388) points, (6.948 ± 1.527) points, (126.52 ± 12.44) mmHg, (83.95 ± 8.07) mmHg in the experimental group. Three months after intervention, those index mentioned above were (1.667 ± 2.149) points, (6.737 ± 1.218)points, (5.702 ± 1.362) points, (130.47 ± 13.77) mmHg, (84.25 ± 7.71) mmHg in the experimental group, and (4.879 ± 2.760) points, (7.793 ± 1.321) points, (7.207 ± 1.373) points, (125.71 ± 11.18) mmHg, (82.98 ±7.41) mmHg in the control group. One month and three months after intervention, the scores of medication belief and willingness to take medication in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group, and the systolic blood pressure was lower than that in the control group. Three months after interevention, medication compliance confidence was higher than that in the control group. The differences were statistically significant ( t values were -2.24-6.96, all P < 0.05). Repeated measurement analysis of variance showed that there were interactions between the group effect and time effect of medication compliance, medication belief, medication compliance confidence, willingness to take medication and systolic blood pressure ( F values were 12.81-26.17, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Solution-focused approach can significantly improve patients' medication adherence, beliefs about medication, medication compliance confidence, willingness to take medication, and effectively control blood pressure fluctuations.

SPSS 22.0 software was used for data statistical analysis, and the weight of each index was determined by the precedence chart method.Results:The evaluation index system consists of 3 first-level indexes, 14 second-level indexes and 42 third-level indexes, including teaching knowledge, teaching ability and teaching quality.Conclusion:The evaluation index of teaching accomplishment of nursing part-time teachers is suitable for evaluating the teaching knowledge, ability and quality of nursing part-time teachers.

Objective:To explore the mediating role of mindfulness in part-time nursing faculty between intrinsic motivation and work engagement.Methods:A total of 376 part-time nursing faculty were investigated with Work Preference Inventory, Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire-Short Form and Utrecht Work Engagement Scale. SPSS 25.0 statistical software was used to perform t test on the data. Results:The intrinsic motivation of part-time nursing faculty positively predicted work engagement ( β=0.74, P<0.001). The positive predictive effect of intrinsic motivation on job engagement was weaker than before ( β=0.55, P<0.001). Mindfulness as an intermediary variable reduced the positive predictive effect of intrinsic motivation on work engagement from 0.979 to 0.504. The indirect effect of intrinsic motivation on work engagement through mindfulness was significant (path coefficient=0.50, P<0.001), and the intermediary effect accounted for 48.51% of the total effect. Conclusion:Mindfulness plays an intermediary role between intrinsic motivation and work engagement of part-time nursing faculty. Paying attention to the mindfulness level of part-time nursing faculty plays a positive role in improving their work engagement level.
