Abstract
PURPOSE To determine whether socioeconomic disparities have an impact on the likelihood of suicide among prostate cancer patients. METHODS Data were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database for patients diagnosed with malignant prostate cancer between 2005 and 2020. The socioeconomic disparities of the patients were evaluated by median household income (MHI) and ethnicity. Ethnicity included Spanish-Hispanic-Latino and non-Spanish-Hispanic-Latino. A Cox proportional risk model was utilized. Using the Kaplan-Meier approach, the cumulative incidence of suicide mortality was measured. RESULTS A total of 857,418 US population with prostate cancer were included. In the multivariate analysis, individuals with MHI over $75,000 had a lower risk of suicide mortality than those with MHI between $54,999 and $74,999 in all patients (aHRs: 0.693, 95 CI%: 0.603-0.797). Spanish-Hispanic-Latino displayed lower overall suicide mortality in all patients (aHRs: 0.426, 95% CI: 0.323-0.561). In the subgroup analysis of different ages, individuals with MHI over $75,000 had a lower risk of suicide than those with MHI between $54,999 and $74,999 in patients 60 to 79 years (aHRs: 0.668, 95% CI: 0.562-0.794) and individuals with MHI below $54,999 had higher suicide risk than those with MHI between $54,999 and $74,999 in patients 80+ years (aHRs: 1.786, 95% CI: 1.100-2.902). Hispanic-Latino individuals had lower overall suicide mortality in 00 to 59 years (aHRs: 0.420, 95% CI: 0.240-0.734), 60 to 79 years (aHRs: 0.445, 95% CI: 0.319-0.621), 80+ years (aHRs: 0.363, 95% CI: 0.133-0.988). CONCLUSION Socioeconomic disparities, including MHI and ethnicity, are important factors strongly related to suicide risk in prostate cancer patients. The lower MHI individuals and non-Spanish-Hispanic-Latino individuals were associated with higher suicide risk.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Children and adolescents with HIV infection are well-known to face a heightened risk of tuberculosis. However, the exact mortality rates and temporal trends of those with HIV-TB co-infection remain unclear. We aimed to identify the overall mortality and temporal trends within this population. METHODS PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase were employed to search for publications reporting on the mortality rates of children and adolescents with HIV-TB co-infection from inception to March 2, 2024. The outcome is the mortality rate for children and adolescents with HIV-TB co-infection during the follow-up period. In addition, we evaluate the temporal trends of mortality. RESULTS During the follow-up period, the pooled mortality was 16% (95% CI 13-20). Single infection of either HIV or TB exhibit lower mortality rates (6% and 4%, respectively). We observed elevated mortality risks among individuals aged less than 12 months, those with EPTB, poor adherence to ART, and severe immunosuppression. In addition, we observed a decreasing trend in mortality before 2008 and an increasing trend after 2008, although the trends were not statistically significant (P = 0.08 and 0.2 respectively). CONCLUSIONS Children and adolescents with HIV-TB co-infection bear a significant burden of mortality. Timely screening, effective treatment, and a comprehensive follow-up system contribute to reducing the mortality burden in this population.

Abstract
Suicide attempts can cause serious physical harm or death. It would be crucial to gain a better understanding of the comparative efficacy of non-pharmacological interventions. We aimed to identify which non-pharmacological interventions are more effective in preventing suicide attempts. PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE databases were searched systematically from their inception until 3 April 2023. To be eligible for inclusion, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) had to meet the following criteria: Participants were individuals who had suicidal ideation or a history of severe self-harm or attempted suicide. A network meta-analysis was performed using a random effects model to estimate the treatment effect of various non-pharmacological interventions. (PROSPERO registration number: CRD42023411393). We obtained data from 54 studies involving 17,630 participants. Our primary analysis found that Cognitive therapy (CT) (OR=0.19, 95%CI =0.04-0.81), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) (OR=0.37, 95%CI =0.13-0.97), Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) (OR=0.42, 95%CI =0.17-0.99), and Brief intervention and contact (BIC) (OR=0.65, 95%CI=0.44-0.94) were superior to TAU (within the longest available follow-up time) in preventing suicide attempts, while other intervention methods do not show significant advantages over TAU. Secondary analysis showed that the two intervention measures (CT and BIC) were effective when follow-up time did not exceed 6 months, but there was no effective intervention measure with longer follow-up times. CT, DBT, CBT, and BIC have a better effect in preventing suicide attempts than other non-pharmacological interventions. Additional research is necessary to validate which interventions, as well as which combinations of interventions, are the most effective.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) in healing pressure injuries (PIs). METHODS A meta-analysis was conducted of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving rhEGF in the treatment of PIs that were identified in PubMed, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). The population, intervention, comparison, outcomes, study design (PICOS) strategy was applied to determine analysis eligibility. The Cochrane risk of bias tool was used, and statistical analysis, including sensitivity analysis, was performed of 3 outcomes indicators: the primary outcome was total efficacy of rhEGF in treating PIs, and the secondary outcomes were the proportion of complete healing and the time to complete healing. Total efficacy refers to the proportion of cases that have been cured, obviously effective, or effective. Complete healing refers to cases where the wound has healed, scabbed, and the scab has sloughed off. RESULTS Sixteen RCTs were included, comprising a total of 1,206 patients. Study and control group size varied by outcomes. The total effective healing rate in rhEGF group was 97.18%, which was significantly higher than 83.38% in control group (OR: 5.69, [95% CI: 3.61, 8.97], z=7.49, P < .001). The proportion of complete healing in the rhEGF group was 73.30%, which was higher than 39.52% in control group (OR: 3.88, [95% CI: 3.01, 5.01], z=10.39, P < .001). Furthermore, the healing time using rhEGF was shorter (SMD: -2.14 days, [95% CI: -2.60, -1.67], z=9.07, P < .001). Sensitivity analyses indicated that the results were robust. CONCLUSIONS The meta-analysis indicated that rhEGF was effective in healing PIs with few negative effects. Further research beyond Chinese populations involving larger studies and studies that distinguish between results found in using rhEGF alone or in combination are recommended.

Abstract
AIMS Diabetes has been indicated to be a risk factor for suicide. We aim to estimate the prevalence of suicide in patients with diabetes. DESIGN A meta-analysis using PRISMA methodology was adopted to examine the incidence of suicide in diabetic patients. DATA SOURCES From inception to October 2022, three online databases (PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and Web of Science) were used to search studies. REVIEW METHODS We used random-effects model to analysis. And our primary outcome was the incidence of suicide death per 100 person-years, and other outcomes were prevalence of suicidal ideation and suicide attempt. To explore the sources of heterogeneity in our study, we performed subgroup and meta-regression analyses. RESULTS The suicide death rate in diabetic patients was 0.027 per 100 person-years, with a higher rate for Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus compared to Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. The prevalence of suicidal ideation in diabetes patients was 0.175, with a higher prevalence in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus compared to Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. The prevalence of suicide attempts in diabetes patients was 0.033, indicating a higher rate for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus compared to Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus. CONCLUSIONS The results indicate a high rate of suicide among people with diabetes, and this study identifies populations and regions at high risk for suicide. Our review emphasizes interventions in mental health and the improvement of suicide prevention programmes. IMPACT The study investigated suicide death, suicidal ideation and suicide attempt in diabetic individuals. Suicide rates are elevated among diabetic patients, and various patient groups face distinct suicide risks. It is important to prioritize the mental well-being of diabetic individuals and enhance interventions, including personalized approaches, to inform public health efforts aimed at preventing and addressing suicide among diabetic patients.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the application effects of application of rehabilitation care decision-making scheme based on case management model in severe burn patients. Methods: The study was a non-randomized historical control study. Thirty patients who met the inclusion criteria and received routine rehabilitation nursing in the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University (the Third Military Medical University, hereinafter referred to as the hospital) from April 2021 to March 2022 were included in routine rehabilitation nursing group (26 males and 4 females, aged 48.50 (31.75, 56.25) years), and 30 patients who met the inclusion criteria and received case management rehabilitation nursing in the hospital from April 2022 to March 2023 were included in case management rehabilitation nursing group (22 males and 8 females, aged 46.00 (36.75, 55.25) years). The length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay, total hospitalization day, and total hospitalization cost of the patients in two groups were recorded. At admission, convalescence, discharge, and 6 months after injury, the patients' life quality was evaluated by the concise burn specific health scale, the sleep quality was evaluated by the Pittsburgh sleep quality index, and the functional independence was evaluated by the functional independence rating scale. At convalescence, discharge, and 6 months after injury, the patients' scar status was evaluated by the Vancouver scar scale. At 6 months after injury, a third-party satisfaction questionnaire was used to investigate the efficacy satisfaction of patients. Results: The length of ICU stay and total hospitalization day of patients in case management rehabilitation nursing group were both significantly shorter than those in routine rehabilitation nursing group (with Z values of -1.97 and -1.99, respectively, P<0.05), and the total hospitalization cost was less than that in routine rehabilitation nursing group (Z=-1.99, P<0.05). At discharge and 6 months after injury, the life quality scores of patients in case management rehabilitation nursing group were significantly higher than those in routine rehabilitation nursing group (with t values of -3.19 and -4.43, respectively, P<0.05), while the sleep quality scores were significantly lower than those in routine rehabilitation nursing group (with Z values of -2.18 and -3.33, respectively, P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in cognitive function scores of functional independence of patients between the 2 groups at admission, convalescence, discharge, and 6 months after injury (P>0.05). The exercise function scores and total scores of functional independence of patients in case management rehabilitation nursing group at convalescence, discharge, and 6 months after injury were significantly higher than those in routine rehabilitation nursing group (with Z values of -4.37, -2.73, -4.10, -4.37, -2.64, and -4.06, respectively, P<0.05). The scar pigmentation scores of patients in case management rehabilitation nursing group at 6 months after injury were significantly lower than those in routine rehabilitation nursing group (Z=-2.05, P<0.05), and the scar vascularity scores of patients in case management rehabilitation nursing group at discharge and 6 months after injury in case management rehabilitation nursing group were significantly lower than those in routine rehabilitation nursing group (with Z values of -3.16 and -2.07, respectively, P<0.05). The scar pliability scores (with Z values of -3.16, -2.45, and -4.38, respectively, P<0.05), thickness scores (with Z values of -2.56, -2.35, and -4.70, respectively, P<0.05), and total scores (with Z values of -3.77, -3.04, and -3.13, respectively, P<0.05) of patients in case management rehabilitation nursing group at convalescence, discharge, and 6 months after injury were significantly lower than those in routine rehabilitation nursing group. At 6 months after injury, the efficacy satisfaction scores of patients in case management rehabilitation nursing group were 4.00 (3.00, 4.25), which were significantly higher than 3.00 (2.00, 4.00) in routine rehabilitation nursing group (Z=-2.72, P<0.05). Conclusions: The implementation of rehabilitation care decision-making scheme based on case management model can optimize the cost efficiency, improve the effectiveness of clinical treatment, and enhance the life quality and satisfaction of the curative effect of severe burn patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Shortages of nurses and unequal distribution of nursing staff have been huge challenges for global health services. OBJECTIVES The aim of our study was to evaluate the impact of the National Nursing Development Plan on nursing human resources in China. METHODS An interrupted time series design was used in this study. The data for this study were extracted from the National Health Statistics Yearbook from 1978 to 2021. The Ministry of Health issued the National Nursing Development Plan (2005-2010) in July 2005. Subsequently, the strategic plan was issued every 5 years: the National Nursing Development Plan (2011-2015), the National Nursing Development Plan (2016-2020), and the National Nursing Development Plan (2021-2025). This study used five indicators including 1) the number of registered nurses (RNs) in China, 2) the number of RNs per 1000 population in China, 3) the proportion of RNs in health technical personnel in China, 4) the doctor-nurse ratio and 5) the number of nurses working in primary medical institutions to evaluate the changing trend of nursing human resources in China from 1978 to 2021. RESULTS Interrupted time series analysis showed that after the implementation of the National Nursing Development Plan (2005-2010), the building of nurses in China was gradually strengthening, and the number of RNs in China increased by 0.198 million per year (95%CI 0.174-0.223; P < 0.001); the number of RNs per 1000 population (Coefficient = 0.139; 95%CI 0.123-0.154; P < 0.001); the proportion of RNs in the total number of health professionals in China has increased from 29.6 % to 44.6 % (Coefficient = 0.010; 95%CI 0.009-0.010; P < 0.001); in China, the doctor-nurse ratio increased by 0.024 (95%CI 0.019-0.029; P < 0.001). In 2021, the number of RNs working in primary medical institutions increased by approximately 0.86 million compared with that in 2005, and the proportion of RNs in the country increased by 1.4 %. The development of nurses is especially tilted to the primary level to meet the health and nursing needs of the primary level. CONCLUSIONS The implementation of the National Nursing Development Plan has greatly expanded the scale of nursing human resources in China and significantly optimized the efficiency of allocation. The implementation of the National Nursing Development Plan (2011-2015) and the National Nursing Development Plan (2016-2020) well continued the strategic plan from 2005 to 2010, further expanded the nursing workforce and further optimized the allocation efficiency. TWEETABLE ABSTRACT The implementation of the National Nursing Development Plan has greatly expanded the scale of nursing human resources in China and significantly optimized the efficiency of allocation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Diabetic foot infection is a serious and painful process for patients with diabetes, and the considerable morbidity associated with the condition warrants attention. Effective inflammatory markers may become important in the detection of diabetic foot infection. OBJECTIVE The goal of the research was to systematically assess the function of inflammatory markers in the detection of diabetic foot infection. METHODS Online databases including PubMed, SpringerLink, and Web of Science were searched. The quality of research and data was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. A random-effects model was used to compare changes in inflammatory markers between patients with infected diabetic foot (IDF) and patients with non-infected diabetic foot. RESULTS Ten studies with 785 participants were included in the systematic review. The study analyzed 3 inflammatory markers: white blood cell (WBC) count, C-reactive protein (CRP) level, and procalcitonin (PCT) level. The meta-analysis indicated that mean WBC count (standardized mean differences [SMD]: 0.51, 95% CI: 0.23, 0.79; P < .0001), mean CRP level (SMD: 1.05, 95% CI: 0.60, 1.50; P < .0001) and mean PCT level (SMD: 0.80, 95% CI: 0.36, 1.24; P < .0001) were higher in patients with IDF. The differences were statistically significant, but the funnel plots indicated the existence of publication bias. CONCLUSIONS The meta-analysis further confirmed the significant association between inflammatory markers and diabetic foot infection. It also confirmed that WBC count, CRP level, and PCT level can be used as laboratory auxiliary indexes in the detection of diabetic foot infection, providing information for improved diagnosis and prevention.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness that affects a significant proportion of the global population, particularly those of childbearing age. Several studies have attempted to find an association between schizophrenia and obstetric complications, with varying results. OBJECTIVE The primary objective of this systematic review and meta-analyses was to summarize the relationship between maternal schizophrenia and perinatal pregnancy outcomes. DATA SOURCES PubMed, Web of Science and Ovid EMBASE were searched from January 2001 to September 2022 using keywords related to pregnancy, women, schizophrenia. STUDY SELECTION A total of 23 independent studies across 21,253 individuals with schizophrenia were identified and included in the analysis. DATA EXTRACTION The following data were extracted: author, year of publication, country/continent of data collection, study design, demographic characteristics, diagnoses criteria, related complications. Data were analyzed using random-effects pairwise meta-analysis and were reported as prevalence and odd ratios (OR). Statistical heterogeneity was quantified with the I2 statistic. RESULTS The prevalence of adverse perinatal pregnancy outcomes was represented in descending order: cesarean section (26.0 %); labor induction (24.0 %); small for gestational age (10.5 %); gestational diabetes mellitus (9.2 %); preterm birth (9.1 %); low birth weight (7.8 %); preterm rupture of membranes (6.1 %); 1-Minute Apgar Score < 7 (5.6 %); large for gestational age (5.5 %); birth defect (5.4 %); antepartum hemorrhage (4.4 %);preeclampsia/eclampsia (4.8 %); postpartum hemorrhage (3.9 %); 5-Minute Apgar Score < 7 (3.6 %); gestational hypertension (3.3 %); placental abruption (1.0 %); placenta previa (0.6 %); thromboembolic disease (0.4 %); neonatal mortality (0.3 %) (P ≤ 0.05). There was a higher risk of adverse outcomes including gestational diabetes mellitus, preeclampsia/eclampsia, placental abruption, thromboembolic disease, preterm birth, birth defect, 1-Minute Apgar score < 7, small for gestational age, low birth weight and neonatal mortality compared with non-schizophrenia population (P ≤ 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Women with schizophrenia are at higher risk of adverse perinatal pregnancy outcomes. It is imperative that research efforts continue to focus on the reproductive safety of women with schizophrenia during their childbearing years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have suggested the potential association between air pollution and tuberculosis incidence, but this association remains inconclusive and evidence to assess causality is particularly lacking. We aimed to draw causal inference between fine particulate matter less than 2.5 μm in diameter (PM2.5) and tuberculosis in China. METHODS Granger causality (GC) inference was performed within vector autoregressive models at levels and/or first-differences using annual national aggregated data during 1982-2019, annual provincial aggregated data during 1982-2019 and monthly provincial aggregated data during 2004-2018. Convergent cross-mapping (CCM) approach was used to determine the backbone nonlinear causal association based on the monthly provincial aggregated data during 2004-2018. Moreover, distributed lag nonlinear model (DLNM) was applied to quantify the causal effects. RESULTS GC tests identified PM2.5 driving tuberculosis dynamics at national and provincial levels in Granger sense. Empirical dynamic modeling provided the CCM causal intensity of PM2.5 effect on tuberculosis at provincial level and demonstrated that PM2.5 had a positive effect on tuberculosis incidence. Then, DLNM estimation demonstrated that the PM2.5 exposure driven tuberculosis risk was concentration- and time-dependent in a nonlinear manner. This result still held in the multi-pollutant model. CONCLUSIONS Causal inference showed that PM2.5 exposure driving tuberculosis, which showing a concentration gradient change. Air pollutant control may have potential public health benefit of decreasing tuberculosis burden.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the phenotype and genotype of two pedigrees with inherited fibrinogen (Fg) deficiency caused by two heterozygous mutations. We also preliminarily probed the molecular pathogenesis. Methods: The prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT) and plasma fibrinogen activity (Fg∶C) of all family members (nine people across three generations and three people across two generations) were measured by the clotting method. Fibrinogen antigen (Fg:Ag) was measured by immunoturbidimetry. Direct DNA sequencing was performed to analyze all exons, flanking sequences, and mutated sites of FGA, FGB, and FGG for all members. Thrombin-catalyzed fibrinogen polymerization was performed. ClustalX 2.1 software was used to analyze the conservatism of the mutated sites. MutationTaster, PolyPhen-2, PROVEAN, SIFT, and LRT online bioinformatics software were applied to predict pathogenicity. Swiss PDB Viewer 4.0.1 was used to analyze the changes in protein spatial structure and molecular forces before and after mutation. Results: The Fg∶C of two probands decreased (1.28 g/L and 0.98 g/L, respectively). The Fg∶Ag of proband 1 was in the normal range of 2.20 g/L, while it was decreased to 1.01 g/L in proband 2. Through genetic analysis, we identified a heterozygous missense mutation (c.293C>A; p.BβAla98Asp) in exon 2 of proband 1 and a heterozygous nonsense mutation (c.1418C>G; p.BβSer473*) in exon 8 of proband 2. The conservatism analysis revealed that Ala98 and Ser473 presented different conservative states among homologous species. Online bioinformatics software predicted that p.BβAla98Asp and p.BβSer473* were pathogenic. Protein models demonstrated that the p.BβAla98Asp mutation influenced hydrogen bonds between amino acids, and the p.BβSer473* mutation resulted in protein truncation. Conclusion: The dysfibrinogenemia of proband 1 and the hypofibrinogenemia of proband 2 appeared to be related to the p.BβAla98Asp heterozygous missense mutation and the p.BβSer473* heterozygous nonsense mutation, respectively. This is the first ever report of these mutations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) is widely acknowledged as a prevalent malignancy and the second most common cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. The aim of this study was to examine the independent impact of Median Household Income (MHI) on prognosis and survival outcomes in patients with CRC. METHODS Data from 17 cancer registries of the United States Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results program, with follow-up extended until November 2022 was analyzed. A Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was conducted to evaluate the influence of different levels of MHI on survival outcomes among patients with CRC. A total of 761,697 CRC patient records were retrieved from the SEER database. RESULTS The Cox regression analysis results indicated that patients with higher MHI exhibited improved overall survival outcomes when compared to those with lower MHI (MMHI: P < 0.001; HMHI: P < 0.001). Regardless of the specific tumor location, gender, stage of CRC, or treatment method, higher MHI is consistently linked to improved survival outcomes. However, this association was not found to be statistically significant among American Indian/Alaska Native (MMHI: P = 0.017; HMHI: P = 0.081), Asian or Pacific Islander (MMHI: P = 0.223; HMHI: P = 0.002) and unmarried or domestic partner patients (MMHI: P = 0.311; HMHI: P = 0.011). CONCLUSION These results emphasize the importance of considering socioeconomic factors, such as income level, in understanding and addressing disparities in survival outcomes of CRC patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine gender differences in suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, and suicide deaths in patients with bipolar disorder. METHODS PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase were systematic searched from inception to March 7, 2023. Two reviewers extract data independently. Demographic data, the number of males and females with bipolar disorder, and the number of individuals with suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, and suicide deaths among participants were extracted. RESULTS The pooled prevalence of suicidal ideation in males and females was 48.0 % and 44.0 %, respectively, and the overall male-to-female ratios present a statistically insignificant result (OR = 0.95, 95%CI = 0.75-1.21) among patients with bipolar disorder. The pooled prevalence of suicide attempts in males and females was 6.7 % and 9.3 %, respectively, and there was a statistically significant lower prevalence among male patients with bipolar disorder (OR = 0.71, 95%CI = 0.67-0.75). However, the pooled prevalence of suicide deaths in males and females was 0.7 % and 0.3 % respectively, and there was a statistically significant higher prevalence among male patients with bipolar disorder (OR = 1.86, 95%CI = 1.63-2.13). LIMITATIONS The included studies were from mainly middle- and high-income countries and used inconsistent measurement tools. Thus, there is a potential for bias in our results. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with bipolar disorder, females were found to have a higher prevalence of suicide attempts, while males have a higher prevalence of suicide deaths. However, there is no significant gender difference in suicidal ideation. Efforts to optimize recognition, treatment, and administration in males and females may reduce gender differences.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Being alone in the treatment room during radiation therapy (RT) often causes anxiety which may lead to treatment failure. The benefit of music interventions in reducing anxiety among cancer patients during RT simulations is still controversial. The goal of this study is to evaluate the effect of music on anxiety symptoms among patients undergoing initial RT and a randomized trial was conducted. MATERIALS/METHODS Patients who received RT for the first time were enrolled and were randomly allocated into groups of experiment and control. The questionnaire of mood thermometer (BSRS-5), distress thermometer (DT), and the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI-C) and were given before and after RT. We also measured the changes in physiological symptoms for ten consecutive days since the first day of RT. The experimental group was given music during RT, while the control group was not. The generalized linear mixed model was used to estimate the pre-post difference of music interventions on the BSRS-5, DT, and BAI-C compared with control group after considering the random intercept and the unstructured residual variance-covariance matrix. RESULTS A total of 50 patients in the experimental group and 50 patients in the control group were enrolled in this study. The satisfaction degree of treatment in the experimental group was 100%, but it was 96% in control group (p = 0.0048). The pre-test BSRS-5 was 3.4±2.3 for the experimental group versus 2.6±2.3 for the control group (p = 0.0815), the post-test BSRS-5 score was significantly reduced in the experimental group (1.6±1.4 for experimental group versus 2.7±2.2 for the control group, p = 0.0057), the significant pre-post difference of BSRS-5 between group was found (p = 0.0024). When the experimental group withdrew from the music intervention, the BSRS-5 rebounded to 3.7±3.0. The pre-test DT was 4.3±1.5 and 3.4±1.7 in the experimental group and control group (p = 0.0051), and the post-test DT score was significantly reduced in the experimental group (2.7±1.2 for the experimental group and 3.5±1.3 for the control group, p = 0.0021), the significant pre-post difference of DT between group was found (p<.0001). When the experimental group withdrew from the music intervention, the DT rebounded to 3.7±1.4. The pre-test BAI-C was 6.7±11.7 and 7.8±8.5 in the experimental group and control group (p = 0.5878), and the post-test BAI-C score was significantly lower in the experimental group (1.7±3.7 for the experimental group and 7.4±8.0 for the control group, p<.0001), however, the pre-post difference of BAI-C between group was not significant (p = 0.0619). When the experimental group withdrew from the music intervention, the BAI-C rebounded to 6.5±8.7. There is a significantly increased systolic blood pressure in the control group compared with the patients had music intervention. CONCLUSION This study's results provide evidence that playing music routinely (music intervention) during RT can be an excellent way to relieve patients' anxiety and improve their comfort.

Abstract
Environmental air pollutants (black carbon (BC), nitrogen oxides (NOx), particulate matter with diameter < 2.5 μm (PM2.5), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), particulate matter with diameter <10 μm (PM10), and ozone (O3)) are one of the major menaces to mankind's health globally. This analysis reviews the association between exposure to these air pollutants and the chance of developing brain tumors in adults (total brain tumors, malignant brain tumors, and benign brain tumors). Studies published by April 2022 were searched. Raw effect sizes were converted to standardized effect sizes per 10 μg/m3 increase. Random effect models were applied to calculate combined effect size and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were computed. A total of 8 articles were included for meta-analysis. The pooled effect size (ES) for per 10 μg/m3 BC intake was 1.67 (95% CI: 1.25, 2.22), P = 0.449. For every 10 μg/m3 rise in NO2 concentration, ES was 1.03 (95% CI: 1.01, 1.05), P = 0.319. Meanwhile, there was a boundary association between NOx and adult brain tumors (ES and 95% CI: 1.01; 1.00, 1.01/10 μg/m3; P = 0.716). While there was no conjunction between PM2.5, PM10, O3 (PM2.5: ES and 95% CI: 1.04; 0.99, 1.08/10 μg/m3; P = 0.834; PM10: ES and 95% CI: 1.01; 0.97, 1.04/10 μg/m3; P = 0.627; O3: ES and 95% CI: 0.97; 0.94, 1.00/10 μg/m3; P = 0.253). This research shows testimony of a significant link between air pollutants and brain tumors in adults, especially when exposed to BC, NO2, and NOx. This evidence emphasizes the importance of improving air quality as part of a comprehensive approach to prevent the occurrence and deterioration of brain tumors.

Abstract
Significance: Pressure injury (PI) is a common critical presentation in intensive care units (ICU) and is an important clinical concern in critical care settings. Some developing data support the vasoconstrictor agent administration as a potential risk factor; however, synthesis of available evidence has not been completed. Recent Advances: Comprehensive tactics were employed to search electronic databases PubMed, Web of Science, and Ovid Embase for data on vasoconstrictor agent administration associated with PI in ICU patients. Extraction was limited to studies that matched the inclusion criteria. The pooled odds ratio and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated for dichotomous outcomes. Critical Issues: Twenty-six studies were included, involving 50,192 patients who matched the selection criteria. Around 5.8% of patients (2,523/43,210) got PI in total. PI occurred in 10.9% (1,496/13,675) of the vasoconstrictor agent administration population and 3.5% (1,027/29,503) of the drug-free population. The pooled unadjusted odds ratio was 2.83 (95% CI = 2.21-3.64, p < 0.001). The adjusted odds ratio was 1.83 (95% CI = 1.26-2.68, p = 0.002). Subgroup analysis and meta-regression found that the risk of PI did not vary with research design, time of occurrence, patient age, or male proportion. Future Directions: Vasoconstrictor agent administration raised the risk of PI in critical care patients by nearly twofold. More emphasis should be placed on the timely prevention of PI in patients receiving vasoconstrictor agent administration in the ICU.

Abstract
BACKGROUND QTc prolongation is one of the possible complications in patients with schizophrenia taking antipsychotics, which leads to malignant cardiac arrhythmia. No meta-analysis has been reported assessing the prevalence and correlated risk factors for QTc prolongation. METHODS This meta-analysis aimed to assess the evidence for the prevalence of QTc prolongation and correlated risk factors in patients with schizophrenia taking antipsychotics. Web of Science and PubMed were searched according to preset strategy. The quality of research was assessed by the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). RESULTS In all, 15 studies covering 15,540 patients with schizophrenia taking antipsychotics were included. Meta-analysis showed that the prevalence of QTc prolongation in patients with schizophrenia taking antipsychotics was about 4.0% (95% confidence interval (CI): 3.0%-5.0%, p < 0.001). The prevalence was about 4.0% in Asia (95%CI: 3.0%-6.0%, p < 0.001), about 5.0% in Europe (95%CI: 2.0%-7.0%, p < 0.001), and about 2.0% in America (95%CI: 1.0%-3.0%, p < 0.001). Sensitivity analyses indicated the robustness of the result. Publication bias analysis reported a certain publication bias (t = 3.37, p = 0.012). Meta-regression suggested that female and elderly patients were clinically associated with a higher prevalence of QTc prolongation. According to included studies, smoking, comorbidity of cardiovascular disease, and abnormal levels of high-density lipoprotein/low-density lipoprotein might be related to QTc prolongation in patients with schizophrenia taking antipsychotics. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of QTc prolongation in patients with schizophrenia taking antipsychotics was about 4.0%. Female and elderly patients were more likely to experience QTc prolongation. Close electrocardiogram monitoring was suggested in these at-risk populations.

Abstract
Objective: To establish and validate a risk predictive model of preoperative drug-induced limitation of pupil dilation (PD) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with concomitant cataract. Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed, in which 376 T2DM patients with concomitant cataract who received cataract operation in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from October 2022 to March 2023 were randomly selected as the study subjects. Of the 376 patients, 268 who were admitted to the hospital from October to December 2022 served as the modeling group, and were divided into PD limited group (n=187) and PD unlimited group (n=81) based on whether they had drug-induced limitation of PD. Logistic regression was used to establish a risk predictive model, R software was used to draw the nomogram, Hosmer-Lemeshow test was utilized to judge the model's goodness of fit, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was adopted to validate the predicting efficacy of the model. Another 108 T2DM patients who received cataract operation in the same hospital from January to March 2023 served as the validation group, and Hosmer-Lemeshow test and ROC curve were used for the external validation of the model. Results: In the modeling group (n=268), there were 124 males and 144 females, with the mean age of (66.6±6.8) years, while in the validation group (n=108), there were 51 males and 57 females, with the mean age of (64.9±9.1) years. The incidence of preoperative drug-induced limitation of PD was 69.8% (187/268) in T2DM patients with concomitant cataract. T2DM disease course (OR=1.134, 95%CI: 1.074-1.198, P<0.001), body mass index (BMI) (OR=0.863, 95%CI: 0.767-0.972, P=0.015), glycohemoglobin (HbA1c) level (OR=1.397, 95%CI: 1.055-1.849, P=0.019) and baseline pupil dimeter (OR=0.089, 95%CI: 0.045-0.179, P<0.001) were the risk factors of drug-induced limitation of PD. Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed χ2=6.231 and P=0.621, the area under curve (AUC) of ROC curve was 0.897 (95%CI: 0.857-0.937, P<0.001), and when the Youden index was the maximum (0.655), the model's sensitivity and specificity was 0.877 and 0.778, respectively. The external validation results demonstrated that the AUC of ROC curve was 0.928 (95%CI: 0.875-0.981, P<0.001), the maximum Youden index was 0.761, the sensitivity was 0.932, the specificity was 0.829, and the overall accuracy was 89.8%. Conclusion: The risk predictive model established in the current study can provide reference for the clinical assessment of the risk of preoperative drug-induced limitation of PD in T2DM patients with concomitant cataract.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the status of knowledge, attitude, and behavior of enteral nutrition implemented by nurses in burn intensive care unit (BICU) and analyze its influencing factors. Methods: A multi-center cross-sectional survey research method was used. On May 8th, 2022, 107 BICU nurses who met the inclusion criteria were selected from the burn departments of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University (the Third Military Medical University), Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University, the Affiliated Hospital of Qinghai University, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University, the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University, Guiyang Steel Factory Staff Hospital, and the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University. The self-made nurses' enteral nutrition nursing knowledge-attitude-behavior questionnaire for severely burned patients was used to investigate the nurses' gender, age, working years, professional title, position, highest educational background, and whether they received systematic training in knowledge of enteral nutrition, the scores of each factor, and the total scores of knowledge, attitude, and behavior dimensions of enteral nutrition in nurses. The nurses were classified according to the general data, and the total scores of their knowledge, attitude, and behavior of enteral nutrition were calculated. Data were statistically analyzed with independent sample t test, one-way analysis of variance, Mann-Whitney U test, and Kruskal-Wallis H test. According to the results of univariate analysis and combined with clinical experience and significance, the generalized linear model analysis was carried out to screen the independent influencing factors of the total scores of knowledge, attitude, and behavior of enteral nutrition in BICU nurses. Results: A total of 107 nurses were surveyed, and 107 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective recovery rate of 100%. In the BICU nurses' enteral nutrition knowledge-attitude-behavior questionnaire, the total scores of knowledge, attitude, and behavior were 44±13, 87±15, and 70±19, respectively. Most of the BICU nurses in this survey were female, aged 22-48 (31±6) years, and the number of nurses worked for 1-5, 6-10, and ≥11 years was evenly distributed. The majority of the professional titles of nurses were nurses, positions were responsible nurses, and the highest educational background was undergraduate. Forty-four nurses received systematic training in knowledge of enteral nutrition. There were statistically significant differences in the total scores of knowledge of enteral nutrition among BICU nurses with different ages, working years, professional titles, positions, highest educational background, and whether they received systematic training in knowledge of enteral nutrition (with H values of 27.36, 15.27, and 10.19, respectively, Z values of -3.33, -2.59, and -6.46, respectively, P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the total scores of attitude and behavior of enteral nutrition among BICU nurses with different gender, ages, working years, professional titles, positions, highest educational background, and whether they received systematic training in knowledge of enteral nutrition (P>0.05). Age (26-30, 31-35, and ≥36 years old), highest educational background (undergraduate), and the systematic training received in enteral nutrition knowledge were the independent influencing factors for the total score of knowledge of enteral nutrition in BICU nurses (with 95% confidence intervals of 0.12-0.36, 0-0.30, 0.03-0.31, 0.01-0.32, and 0.19-0.40, respectively, standardized regression coefficients of 0.24, 0.15, 0.17, 0.17, and 0.29, respectively, P<0.05). There were no independent influencing factors for the total scores of enteral nutrition attitude and behavior of BICU nurses in different characteristics (P>0.05). Conclusions: The BICU nurses have low cognitive level in the implementation of enteral nutrition, their concept needs to be updated in time, and their behavior needs to be further standardized. Age (26-30, 31-35, and ≥36 years old), highest educational background (undergraduate), and the systematic training received in enteral nutrition knowledge were the independent influencing factors for the knowledge of enteral nutrition in BICU nurses.

Abstract
Device-related pressure injuries (DRPIs) prevail in the intensive care unit (ICU) and have much to do with medical devices and patients' conditions. This meta-analysis aims to systematically assess the incidence, prevalence and risk factors related to DRPIs among adults in ICU. Web of Science, Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, PubMed and CINAHL were searched from inception to March 2023. Observational studies were included, and the Newcastle-Ottawa scale (NOS) was used to assess literature quality. The primary outcomes were the incidence, prevalence and risk factors regarding DRPIs among adults in ICU. The 19 studies conformed to the criteria for inclusion in the review. The estimated pooled incidence of DRPIs was 14.7% (95% CI: 9.7%-19.6%) in 10 studies (4866 participants). The estimated pooled prevalence of DRPIs was 19.0% (95% CI: 13.6%-24.3%) in 9 studies (5218 participants). The most significant risk factor for DRPIs was using mechanical ventilation. The pooled analysis of the four studies showed that DRPIs were more likely to occur in patients who required mechanical ventilation compared with patients who did not use mechanical ventilation (OR: 9.67, 95% CI: 5.03-18.61, p < 0.001) and using vasopressors, age, length of ICU stays, APACHE II score, Braden score, fever, sex, oedema, diabetes and number of medical devices, SOFA score was also related to pressure injuries risk. The incidence and prevalence of DRPIs in adult ICU were high, and the most significant risk factor for DRPIs was using mechanical ventilation. It is imminent to identify patients of increased risk with DRPIs early.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During the COVID-19 epidemic, palliative care has become even more indispensable for cancer patients. AIM To identify the changes in palliative care for cancer patients and improvements in palliative care quality during the COVID-19 pandemic. DESIGN A systematic review and narrative synthesis was conducted in PubMed, Embase and Web of Science. An evaluation tool using mixed methods was used to assess the quality of the study. The main relevant themes identified were used to group qualitative and quantitative findings. RESULTS A total of 36 studies were identified, primarily from different countries, with a total of 14,427 patients, 238 caregivers and 354 health care providers. Cancer palliative care has been experiencing several difficulties following the COVID-19 pandemic, including increased mortality and infection rates as well as delays in patient treatment that have resulted in poorer prognoses. Treatment providers are seeking solutions such as electronic management of patients and integration of resources to care for the mental health of patients and staff. Telemedicine plays an important role in many ways but cannot completely replace traditional treatment. Clinicians strive to meet patients' palliative care needs during special times and improve their quality of life. CONCLUSIONS Palliative care faces unique challenges during the COVID-19 epidemic. With adequate support to alleviate care-related challenges, patients in the home versus hospital setting will be able to receive better palliative care. In addition, this review highlights the importance of multiparty collaboration to achieve personal and societal benefits of palliative care.

Abstract
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES To determine the global prevalence of nursing burnout syndrome and time trends for the last 10 years. BACKGROUND The prevalence of burnout syndrome varied greatly in different regions in the last 10 years, so the average prevalence and time trends of nursing burnout syndrome for the last 10 years were not completely clear. DESIGN A meta-analysis conducted in the PRISMA guidelines. METHODS CINAHL, Web of Science, and PubMed were searched for trials on the prevalence of nursing burnout syndrome from 2012 to 2022 systematically. Hoy's quality assessment tool was used to evaluate the risk of bias. The global prevalence of nursing burnout syndrome was estimated, and subgroup analysis was used to explore what caused heterogeneity. Time trends for the last 10 years were evaluated by meta-regression using Stata 11.0. RESULTS Ninety-four studies reporting the prevalence of nursing burnout were included. The global prevalence of nursing burnout was 30.0% [95% CI: 26.0%-34.0%]. Subgroup analysis indicated that the specialty (p < .001) and the region (p < .001) and the year (p < .001) were sources of the high heterogeneity. Meta-regression indicated that it tended to increase gradually for the last 10 years (t = 3.71, p = .006). The trends increased in Europe (t = 4.23, p = .006), Africa (t = 3.75, p = .006) and obstetrics (t = 3.66, p = .015). However, no statistical significance was found in ICU (t = -.14, p = .893), oncology (t = -0.44, p = .691) and emergency department (t = -0.30, p = .783). CONCLUSIONS A significant number of nurses were found to have moderate-high levels of burnout syndrome for the last 10 years. The meta-analysis also indicated an increased trend over time. Therefore, more attention to the prevalence of nursing burnout syndrome is urgently required. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE High prevalence of nursing burnout may attract more attention from the public. This analysis may serve as an impetus for relevant policy to change nurses' working conditions and reduce the occurrence of burnout.

Abstract
Background: Loneliness is a common public health problem that influences people's physical and mental health. There is a high incidence of loneliness in adolescents. Some research suggested that smartphone or Internet addiction (SA or IA) may be a factor. But the relationship between loneliness and SA or IA is not completely clear among adolescents. We aim to estimate the correlation coefficient r between them. Methods: Databases, consisting of PubMed and Web of Science, were retrieved systematically for studies of the association between adolescents' loneliness and SA or IA. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was chosen as an assessment tool in this analysis. We estimated the correlation coefficient r between loneliness and SA or IA and drew a forest plot. Moreover, moderator analyses were also conducted to explore what leads to heterogeneity in our study. Results: 21 studies were finally included in our analysis with 27,843 samples. The pooled correlation coefficient r was 0.252 (95% confidence interval: [0.173, 0.329]; p < 0.001) with low heterogeneity (I2 = 0.000%; Q = 23.616; p < 0.001), indicating a moderate positive association. The funnel plot indicated small publication bias. A one-study removal sensitivity analysis indicated there was no significant difference between these studies. Meta-regression indicated no significant difference between the results and age (Q = 11.94, df = 18, p = 0.8504). Conclusions: Our analysis indicated a moderate positive association between loneliness and SA or IA. The results may attract the attention of some experts who study adolescent psychological problems and behavioral problems and may provide ideas for their research in the future.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the application effects of mind mapping combined with scenario simulation training on the ability training of junior nurses in hospital transfer of patients with critical burns and trauma. Methods: A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted. From December 2019 to December 2020, 55 female junior nurses from the Institute of Burn Research of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University (the Third Military Medical University) who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled in this study and divided into routine group (27 nurses, aged (24.0±0.9) years) and combined group (28 nurses, aged (24.2±0.8) years), according to the random number table. The nurses in routine group were trained with hospital transfer of patients with critical burns and trauma by theory combined with operational skill, and the nurses in combined group were trained with hospital transfer of patients with critical burns and trauma by mind mapping combined with scenario simulation training. Before and after the training, the self-made theoretical examination papers and skill assessment items were used for the examination and assessment to nurses, and their scores were calculated and compared. The self-made emergency ability scoring system was used to evaluate the emergency disposal ability of nurses from five dimensions, including team cooperation ability, emergency response ability, operative technique ability, specialized business ability, and nurse-patient communication ability, and their scores were calculated and compared. The non-standard implementation rates of transfer nursing measures, such as incomplete preparation of goods, poor communication effect of patients, inadequate pipeline nursing, unclear handover, and inadequate final treatment, were calculated and compared in the process of transporting highly simulated human (hereinafter referred to as simulated human) by nurses before and after training; and the rate of disease change and successful rate of transport of simulated human were calculated and compared after training. After assessment, self-made satisfaction questionnaire was used to compare nurses' satisfaction with the training mode, content, and effects. Data were statistically analyzed with independent sample t test, Pearson chi-square test, or Yates corrected chi-square test. Results: Fifty-five enrolled nurses were fully involved in the training, examination, assessment, and questionnaire filling. Before training, there were no statistically significant differences in theoretical examination and skill assessment scores between the 2 groups (P>0.05); After training, the theoretical examination and skill assessment scores of nurses in combined group were significantly higher than those in routine group (with t values of -3.89 and -4.24, respectively, P<0.05). Before training, there were no statistically significant differences in the scores of each item of emergency disposal ability between the 2 groups (P>0.05); after training, the scores in terms of team cooperation ability, emergency response ability, operative technique ability, specialized business ability, and nurse-patient communication ability of nurses in combined group were significantly higher than those in routine group (with t values of -6.49, -6.44, -2.21, -2.85, and -2.34, respectively, P<0.05). Before training, there were no statistically significant differences in the non-standard implementation rates of transfer nursing measures of nurses between the 2 groups (P>0.05); after training, the non-standard rates of incomplete preparation of goods, unclear handover, and inadequate final treatment of nurses in combined group were significantly lower than those in routine group (with t values of 3.87, 5.89, and 5.28, respectively, P<0.05). After training, the rate of disease change of simulated human of nurses in combined group was 7.14% (2/28), which was significantly lower than 33.33% (9/27) in routine group (χ2=5.89, P<0.05); the successful rate of transport was 96.43% (27/28), which was significantly higher than 74.07% (20/27) in routine group (χ2=3.87, P<0.05). After assessment, the total score of training satisfaction and scores of satisfaction with training mode and training effect of nurses in combined group were significantly higher than those in routine group (with t values of 5.22, 4.67, and 10.71, respectively, P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the satisfaction score on training content between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions: Evidence-based mind mapping combined with scenario simulation training significantly improves the nursing skills and emergency handling capabilities of junior nurses in transferring patients with critical burns and trauma.

Abstract
Aim: To develop a Cancer Patient Suicidal Ideation Scale (CAPASIS) and test its reliability and validity. Patients & methods: An initial CAPASIS was developed. Clinical assessment was conducted using an adjusted initial scale with 239 cancer patients for item reduction and 253 for scale validation. Results: Item selection analyses resulted in 22 items. The revised model fits were acceptable (normal chi-square [χ2/df] = 1.919; standardized root mean residual [SRMR] = 0.057; root mean square error of approximation [RMSEA] = 0.060; goodness fit index [GFI] = 0.882; adjusted goodness fit index [AGFI] = 0.844; Tucker-Lewis index [TLI] = 0.898; comparative fit index [CFI] = 0.915; incremental fit index [IFI] = 0.917). The Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.911. Conclusion: The CAPASIS has good validity and reliability, with a six-factor structure of 'entrapment', 'defeat', 'isolation', 'hopelessness', 'burdensomeness' and 'humiliation', which can help identify patients with suicidal ideation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patients with severe mental illness have a high risk of suicide and frequently living eliminated from mainstream society, but the effects of social support on suicide-related behaviors among this crowd is inconclusive. The present study aimed to explore such effects among patients with severe mental illness. METHODS We implemented a meta-analysis and a qualitative analysis of relevant studies published before February 6, 2023. Correlation coefficients (r) and 95 % CI were selected as the effect size index in meta-analysis. Studies that did not report correlation coefficients were employed for qualitative analysis. RESULTS Out of 4241 identified studies, 16 were identified in this review (6 for meta-analysis, 10 for qualitative analysis). The meta-analysis presented that the pooled correlation coefficients (r) were - 0.163 (95%CI = -0.243, -0.080, P < 0.001), suggesting a negative correlation between social support and suicidal ideation. The subgroup analysis showed that this effect works in all bipolar disorder, major depression, and schizophrenia. Concerning qualitative analysis, social support presented positive effects on reducing suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, and suicide death. The effects were consistently reported in female patients. However, there existed some unaffected results in males. LIMITATIONS The included studies were from middle- and high-income countries and used inconsistent measurement tools, our results may have some bias. CONCLUSIONS The effects of social support in reducing suicide-related behaviors were positive, but it showed better effects in both female patients and adults. Males and adolescents deserve more attention. Future research needs to pay more attention to the implementation methods and effects of personalized social support.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the trends in nursing burnout rates before and during the coronavirus 2019 restrictions. METHOD Meta-analysis was used to extract the data on global nursing burnout from 1 Jan. 2010-15 Dec. 2022. An interrupted time-series analysis using segmented ordinary least squares (OLS) regression models was used to explore if the nursing burnout were affected by the epidemic. Newey-West standard error was used to adjust for autocorrelation and heteroskedasticity. RESULTS Before the epidemic (April 2020), the nursing burnout rate rose with 0.0007497 (95% CI: 0.0000316, 0.0014677, t = 2.07, P = 0.041) per month. The trend of nursing burnout rate has increased by 0.0231042 (95 CI%:0.0086818, 0.0375266, t = 3.18, P = 0.002). The increasing trend of nursing burnout rate after the COVID-19 restrictions is 0.0007497 + 0.0231042 = 0.0238539 per month. CONCLUSION The study indicated that the Covid-19 restrictions had an impact on nursing burnout, increasing the occurrence of nursing burnout syndrome.

Abstract
Andrographolide (AGL) is the major component of Andrographispaniculata. The poor water solubility and low dissolution strongly affect its oral absorption. Liquisolid technology has been used to improve its dissolution and oral bioavailability. Liquisolid powders of AGL (AGL-LS-PSG) were obtained by firstly dissolving AGL in the mixture of NMP, PEG 6000 and Soluplus®, and solidified by absorption of the blend in porous starch. Angle of repose, Carr index and Hauser ratio presented good powder fluidity and compressibility characteristics of AGL-LS-PSG. The results of optical microscopic observation, PXRD and DSC analysis indicated that AGL has been completely adsorbed in porous starch granules and existed in an amorphous or molecularly dispersing state. AGL-LS-PSG can obviously increase the drug dissolution rate compared to commercial guttate pills and raw drug. In vivo pharmacokinetic behavior of AGL-LS-PSG was investigated following a single oral administration to rats. The Cmax (0.37 ± 0.06 μg mL-1) and AUC0-2h (13.55 ± 2.67 μg h mL-1) of AGL-LS-PSG were evidently increased compared to commercial guttate pills (Cmax = 0.30 ± 0.21 μg mL-1, AUC0-2h = 9.88 ± 3.57 μg h mL-1). This study indicated great potential of liquisolid technology in effectively improving the dissolution and bioavailability of AGL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to discuss the expression of matrix metalloproteinase in wound healing of diabetic foot ulcers and further summarize the strategies of targeted matrix metalloproteinase and its inhibitors in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. METHODS Following PRISMA-SCR guidelines, databases (PubMed, Home-PMC-NCBI, CINAHL, Web of Science) were systematically searched from inception to 19 June 2022. Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used to evaluate the bias risk of the included studies. RESULTS Eight studies are finally eligible for our systematic review. The combined data analysis of 8 studies showed that there were no significant difference in age(p = 0.110), duration of diabetes(p = 0.197), glycosylated hemoglobin content(p = 0.489), size(p = 0.133) and depth(p>0.05) of initial ulcer between the ulcer wound healing group and the non-healing group. MMP-1, 2, 8, 9, and TIMP-1, 2 affected the healing of DFUs. In the DFUs healing group, the concentrations of MMP (MMP-1, 2, 8, 9) decreased, and the concentration of TIMP-1 increased. CONCLUSION Our study showed that high levels of MMP-1, 2, 9 delayed the healing of diabetic foot ulcers, and high expression of MMP-8 in tissues improved wound healing. This study also summarized the effective intervention strategies for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Despite advances in Extracorporeal Membranous Oxygenation (ECMO) equipment, hematologic complications remain significant in critically ill children. The aim of this study is to summarize prevalence of hematologic complications for children and neonates. METHODS MEDLINE, PubMed and Scopus databases were searched focusing on the period from January 01, 2017 to October 01, 2022. The population included critically ill children and neonates with hematologic complications. The review included all aspects of related complications including hemorrhage, thrombosis, and hemolysis. We performed random effects meta-analyses. The primary outcome measure was overall hematologic complications. Secondary outcomes are changes in the prevalence of hemorrhagic complications. Risk of bias of included studies was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute checklist. RESULTS The systematic search identified 37 studies totaling 10,659 critically ill pediatric patients receiving ECMO. The pooled prevalence of hemorrhagic complications, thrombotic complications and hemolysis among pediatric patients requiring ECMO was 43.7 % (95 % CI: 28.6 % to 58.9 %, P < 0.001), 27.6 % (95 % CI: 20.4 % to 34.8 %, P < 0.001), 34.3 % (95 % CI: 22.9 % to 45.7 %, P < 0.001). The prevalence of hemorrhagic complications was represented in descending order: surgical site (21.6 %, 95 % CI: 10.3 % to 32.9 %); cannulation site (20.6 %, 95 % CI: 11.8 % to 29.3 %); intracranial (12.2 %, 95 % CI: 9.5 % to 15.0 %); pulmonary (7.7 %, 95 % CI: 5.9 % to 9.6 %); gastrointestinal (6.0 %, 3.7 % to 8.4 %). For the assessment of thrombotic complications, thrombosis in cannulation site had a higher prevalence (28.5 %, 95 % CI: 22.1 % to 34.9 %), followed by DIC (13.5 %, 95 % CI: 8.7 % to 18.3 %) and intracranial thrombosis (4.5 %, 95 % CI: 1.4 % to 7.6 %). Predictors of increased prevalence of hemorrhagic complications included age (P = 0.017) and VV-ECMO support mode (P = 0.029). CONCLUSIONS Among critically ill pediatric patients, there was a series of hematologic complications can occur during ECMO support. Physicians should pay special attention to the management and establish appropriate treatment programs to reduce the occurrence of hematologic complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND People with serious mental illness are at great risk of suicide, but little is known about the suicide rates among this population. We aimed to quantify the suicide rates among people with serious mental illness (bipolar disorder, major depression, or schizophrenia). METHODS PubMed and Web of Science were searched to identify studies published from 1 January 1975 to 10 December 2020. We assessed English-language studies for the suicide rates among people with serious mental illness. Random-effects meta-analysis was used. Changes in follow-up time and the suicide rates were presented by a locally weighted scatter-plot smoothing (LOESS) curve. Suicide rate ratio was estimated for assessments of difference in suicide rate by sex. RESULTS Of 5014 identified studies, 41 were included in this analysis. The pooled suicide rate was 312.8 per 100 000 person-years (95% CI 230.3-406.8). Europe was reported to have the highest pooled suicide rate of 335.2 per 100 000 person-years (95% CI 261.5-417.6). Major depression had the highest suicide rate of 534.3 per 100 000 person-years (95% CI 30.4-1448.7). There is a downward trend in suicide rate estimates over follow-up time. Excess risk of suicide in males was found [1.90 (95% CI 1.60-2.25)]. The most common suicide method was poisoning [21.9 per 100 000 person-years (95% CI 3.7-50.4)]. CONCLUSIONS The suicide rates among people with serious mental illness were high, highlighting the requirements for increasing psychological assessment and monitoring. Further study should focus on region and age differences in suicide among this population.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical features of JAK2V617F gene mutation and non-mutation in patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS). Methods: 17 and 127 BCS cases with JAK2V617F gene mutation (mutation group) and non-gene mutation (non-mutation group) who were continuously treated with interventional therapy between January 2016 to December 2020 in the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were selected as the research object for a comparative study. The hospitalization and follow-up data of the two groups were analyzed retrospectively, and the deadline for follow-up was June 2021. Quantitative data group differences were analyzed using the independent sample t-test and Wilcoxon rank sum test. Qualitative data group differences were analyzed with χ2 test or Fisher's exact test. Mann-Whitney U test was used to analyze the differences between groups in rank data. Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the patient survival and recurrence rate. Results: Age [(35.41±17.10) years vs. (50.09±14.16) years, t=3.915, P<0.001], time of onset (median duration: 3 months vs. 12 months), and the cumulative survival rate (65.5% vs 95.1%; χ2=5.21, P=0.022) were lower in mutation than non-mutation group. Aaspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, prothrombin time, Child-Pugh score, Rotterdam score, Model for End-stage Liver Disease score, hepatic vein thrombosis incidence, and the cumulative recurrence rate after intervention were higher in mutation than non-mutation group. The above all indexes had statistically significant differences (P<0.05) between the groups. Conclusion: Younger age, acute onset, severe liver injury, high incidence of hepatic vein thrombosis, and poor prognosis are the features of patients with BCS with JAK2V617F gene mutation than non-mutation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Suicide becomes a widespread public health concern. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is used to correct negative thoughts and behaviors of patients at risk of suicide. The aim of this research is to summarize and evaluate the existing evidence to explore the impact of CBT on suicide. METHOD We conducted a systematic searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane database from the first available year to March 2021. The methodological quality was evaluated by AMSTAR-2 tool, and the evidence quality was evaluated by GRADE classification. We summarized all the comparative effects of CBT on suicide, and used forest plots to describe the impact of CBT on suicide related outcomes included suicidal ideation, suicide attempts. The random effects model was used to summarize data. RESULTS Nine systematic reviews and meta-analysis were included. Most of the systematic reviews and meta-analysis were of medium methodological and evidence quality. The impact of CBT on suicide outcomes could be divided into the following two categories: CBT reduced levels of suicidal ideation (SMD -0.28, 95 % CI -0.36 to -0.21), CBT relieved suicide attempts (RR 0.77, 95 % CI 0.69 to 0.87). CONCLUSION Based on the current evidence, CBT could relieve suicide, including suicide ideation, suicide attempts. CBT is scalable and cost-effective. It is helpful for health professionals to formulate personalized CBT programs, promote clinical and community applications and integrate them into comprehensive suicide interventions and prevention strategies.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the impact of pretreatment drug resistance (PDR) on virological effect among HIV-infected patients having received antiretroviral therapy (ART) after three years. Methods: The baseline survey of PDR among HIV-infected patients was conducted in 2018, with a three-year follow up study. The clinic data and virological laboratory test variables were statistically analyzed. Results: Of the 2 433 participants, 41.6% (1 012/2 433) were aged between 18 and 34, 82.8% (2 015/2 433) were males, 46.9% (1 142/2 433) had education of high school or above, 22.4% (544/2 433) were farmers, 33.8% (823/2 433) were unmarried, 48.1% (1 169/2 433) were infected heterosexually and 41.3% (1 004/2 433) were with CRF07_BC. The prevalence of PDR was 4.5% (109/2 433). The prevalence of virological suppression failure (viral load ≥50 copies/ml) and drug resistance at three years follow up after ART was 8.1%(196/2 433) and 2.5%(60/2 433) respectively. The prevalence of virological suppression failure and drug resistance at three years follow up after ART were 18.3% (20/109) and 7.6% (176/2 324), and 4.6% (5/109) and 2.4% (55/2 324) among participants with PDR and non-PDR, respectively. The results of multivariate logistic regression model showed that illiteracy (aOR=3.26, 95%CI: 1.82-5.86), primary and junior high school education (aOR=1.54, 95%CI: 1.09-2.18), CD4+T lymphocyte count <200/μl (aOR=2.77, 95%CI: 1.75-4.37) and CD4+T lymphocyte count 200-499/μl (aOR=1.55, 95%CI: 1.10-2.18) at a three year follow up visit after ART, missed drugs in the past month (aOR=4.24, 95%CI: 2.92-6.17), and PDR (aOR=2.84, 95%CI: 1.67-4.85) were statistically significant with virological suppression failure on treatment. Conclusions: The prevalence of PDR in China at a low level currently, and the virological suppression failure rate is low after three years of ART. It is necessary to strengthen drug resistance monitoring of HIV-infected patients and pay attention to the influence of PDR on treatment effect.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate death and attrition in HIV-infected children under initial antiretroviral therapy (ART) and associated factors in Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region. Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted in HIV-infected children under initial ART in Guangxi from 2004 to 2019, data from ART information system of National comprehensive AIDS prevention and treatment information system. Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess factors associated with the death and attrition. Results: In 943 HIV-infected children, the overall mortality and attrition rates were 1.00/100 person-years and 0.77/100 person-years, respectively. The mortality and attrition rates within the first year of ART were 3.90/100 person-years and 1.67/100 person-years, respectively. The cumulative survival rate during the first, second, fifth and tenth year after ART was 96.14%, 95.80%, 93.68% and 91.54%, respectively. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models results showed that being female (aHR=2.00, 95%CI: 1.17-3.40), CD4+T lymphocytes (CD4) counts before ART <200 cells/μl (aHR=2.79, 95%CI: 1.54-5.06), weight-for-age Z score before ART <-2 (aHR=2.38, 95%CI: 1.32-4.26), hemoglobin before ART <80 g/L (aHR=2.47, 95%CI: 1.24-4.92), initial ART with LPV/r (aHR=5.05, 95%CI: 1.15-22.12) were significantly associated with death; being female (aHR=2.23, 95%CI: 1.22-4.07) and initial ART with LPV/r (aHR=2.02, 95%CI: 1.07-3.79) were significantly associated with attrition. Conclusions: The effect of ART in HIV-infected children in Guangxi was better, but the mortality and attrition rates were high within the first year of treatment. It is necessary to strengthen the training in medical staff and health education in HIV-infected children and their parents in order to improve the treatment effect.

Abstract
Adolescent depression is becoming a public health problem. In this study the association between depressive symptoms and internet usage time in adolescents was examined, with data collected from the China Education Tracking Survey (CEPS). The survey is publicly available and carried out nationwide. A logistic regression analysis was conducted with odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI), the subgroup analysis examined the relationships between internet usage time and depressive symptoms. A total of 10,705 adolescents were involved, where 46.4% of them are caught by the internet for more than two hours per day. Adolescents keeping on the internet for 6-8 h per day were reported to have higher odds of depressive symptoms than adolescents who were free from it with the confounders of individual, family, and school adjusted, which were observed among groups with a medium family economic status without living with their father and with a sleep time less than nine hours. The results revealed that adolescents spending more time online had a higher risk of experiencing depression symptoms. This study suggested that it is helpful for mental health professionals to evaluate and develop prevention interventions for depressive symptoms in adolescents promptly through monitoring and managing online time.

Abstract
The present study was designed to determine the association between Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) scale and elevated pressure injure (PI) risk in intensive care units (ICU) and also evaluate the predictive value of APACHE score in PI patients. Comprehensive strategies were used to search studies from PubMed, Web of Science, and Ovid Embase electronic databases for observational studies that provided data about APACHE scores related to PI in ICU. Eligible studies were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The pooled SMD with 95% confidence intervals were calculated. A summary ROC curve was plotted to calculate area under curve (AUC) for APACHE-II (15-20). Twenty-one studies involving 11,102 patients who met selection criteria were included. The 11.0% of patients (1229/11102) in ICU developed PIs. Overall, the PI group had a higher score compared with the non-PI group in the APACHE II (22.1 ± 8.0 vs. 14.5 ± 7.4, mean ± SD). The APACHE-III of PI patients was significantly more than that in the non-PI group (79.9 ± 25.6 vs. 59.9 ± 30.4, mean ± SD). The pooled SMD was 0.82 (95% CI: 0.58-1.06, I2 = 91.7%, p-value < 0.001). The subgroup analysis revealed that the risk of PIs did not vary with the type of APACHE score (II, III, IV) and the type of study design (case-control, cross-sectional, cohort, longitudinal study). Proportion of males (I2 = 91.68%, p value = 0.090), publish year (I2 = 91.96%, p value = 0.187) and mean age of patients (I2 = 91.96%, p value = 0.937) were not the sources of heterogeneity. APACHE-II (15-20) achieves the best predictive performance in PI, and the prediction accuracy was balanced with equal sensitivity and specificity (Sen: 0.72, 0.62-0.80; Spec: 1.72, 1.25-2.38). In conclusion, higher APACHE scores are frequently accompanied by a higher incidence of PI among critical-care patients. APACHE-II scores (15-20) satisfactorily predicted PI, and strategies to prevent PI should be aggressively implemented.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to develop a model for predicting severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (SMPP) in pediatric patients with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) on admission by laboratory indicators. METHODS Pediatric patients with MPP from January 2019 to December 2020 in our hospital were enrolled in this study. SMPP was diagnosed according to guideline for diagnosis and treatment of community-acquired pneumonia in children (2019 version). Prediction model was developed according to the admission laboratory indicators. Receiver operating characteristic curve and Goodness-of-fit test were analyzed for the predictive value. RESULTS A total of 233 MPP patients were included in the study, with 121 males and 112 females, aged 4.541 (1-14) years. Among them, 84 (36.1%, 95% CI 29.9-42.6%) pediatric patients were diagnosed as SMPP. Some admission laboratory indicators (immunoglobulins M (IgM), eosinophil proportion, eosinophil count, hemoglobin, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), total protein, albumin and prealbumin) were found statistically different (p < 0.05) between non-SMPP group and SMPP group. Logistic regress analysis showed IgM, eosinophil proportion, eosinophil count, ESR and prealbumin were independent risk factors for SMPP. According to these five admission laboratory indicators, the prediction model for SMPP in pediatric patients was developed. The area under curve of the prediction model was 0.777, and the goodness-of-fit test showed that the predicted SMPP incidence by the model was consistent with the actual incidence (χ2 = 244.51, p = 0.203). CONCLUSION We developed a model for predicting SMPP in pediatric patients by admission laboratory indicators. This model has good discrimination and calibration, which provides a basis for the early identification SMPP on admission. However, this model should be validated by multicenter studies with large sample.

Abstract
Little is known about the efficacy and safety of angiogenesis inhibitor therapy in patients with melanoma. The objective of this study was to assess the possible benefits and harms of angiogenesis inhibitor therapy in patients with melanoma. Electronic databases of PubMed and Web of Science were searched from inception to January 2020. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that investigated the efficacy and safety of angiogenesis inhibitor therapy in patients with melanoma were included. Primary outcomes were overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS), reported as hazard ratios (HRs). Secondary outcomes were disease control, objective response, and adverse events, reported as odds ratios (ORs), and trial sequential analysis (TSA) was also performed. We identified seven trials with 3185 patients. There was no significant difference in OS [HR, 0.99; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.90-1.09] or PFS (HR, 0.91; 95% CI, 0.83-1.00) between the treatment groups. No significant effect of angiogenesis inhibitor therapy was identified on disease control (OR, 1.23; 95% CI, 0.97-1.55) or objective response (OR, 1.27; 95% CI, 0.99-1.62). TSA showed that the sample size for analysis of disease control was sufficient. Additionally, angiogenesis inhibitor therapy increased risks of hypertension, neurological symptoms, and diarrhea. Angiogenesis inhibitor therapy makes no significant improvement in OS or PFS in patients with melanoma and even causes an increased risk of important adverse events. Therefore, angiogenesis inhibitor therapy is not recommended for the treatment of melanoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dahuang Zhechong pill (DHZCP) improves the inhibitory immune status of mice with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by regulating Treg/Th1 balance. HYPOTHESIS/PURPOSE To study the multi-material basis and multi-mechanisms of DHZCP against HCC by regulating Treg/Th1 balance in vitro and in vivo. METHODS UPLC-MS/MS was used to detect the dynamic changes in 29 characteristic components of different polar parts of DHZCP. H&E and TUNEL were used to check pathological condition in HCC mice. The number of CD4+T, CD8+T, Treg, Th1, and Th1-like Treg cells was counted by flow cytometry. TGF-β, IL-10, IFN-γ, and TNF-α content were detected by ELISA. α-Ketoglutarate and glutamine levels were detected by Trace1310/TSQ8000 GC-MS/MS. p-Smad2, and p-Smad3 protein levels were detected by WB, mRNA expression of Smad2, alanine-serine-cysteine transporter-2, glutaminase, and glutamate dehydrogenase were detected by RT-PCR. Simca-p multivariate data analysis software was used to evaluate the relationship between the different polar parts of DHZCP and the proportion of Treg cells. RESULTS Water-soluble (PW) and ethyl acetate (PE) polar parts of DHZCP affected the HCC immune system by inhibiting the differentiation of Tregs, reversing the balance of Treg/Th1, and significantly reduced the tumor volume and weight. However, petroleum ether and n-butanol polar parts had no above actions. The changes in emodin, chrysophanol, aloe vera emodin, emodin-8-O-β-D-glycoside, gallic acid, naringenin, baicalein, wogonin, norwogonin, apigenin, chrysin, glycyrrhizin, formononetin, and palmitic acid were closely related to the changes of Treg cells, which is the main material basis of DHZCP inhibition of Treg differentiation. Additionally, PW mainly inhibit the differentiation of Treg cells by affecting the metabolism of hepatoma cells, improving tumor microenvironment acidity, and glutamine depletion. However, PE inhibited the differentiation of Treg cells mainly by regulating the TGF-β/Smad pathway. CONCLUSION In this study, accurate analysis of multi-component was combined with pharmacodynamic evaluations to identify the pharmacodynamic substances of DHZCP in regulating Treg/Th1 balance, and clarified the multi-target mechanism of DHZCP to improve tumor immunity. The study style offers a novel approach for pharmacological research on TCM.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the incidence of death anxiety in palliative care patients, find some existing and potential causes, and put forward suggestions. Methods: Publication bias, sensitivity analysis, subgroup analysis, and regression analysis were also conducted to explore the sources of the heterogeneity in our analysis. Results: The 607 studies were obtained, and 20 studies were included after reading the articles and quality evaluation. The incidence of death anxiety in patients was 0.44 (95%CI:0.38,0.51, p < 0.001). and heterogeneity was significant (I2 = 98.2%, p < 0.001). In the test of regression analysis, the average age (I2 = 98.15%, R2 = - 6.99%, p < 0.001); in gender (I2 = 97.84%, R2 = 1.14%, p < 0.001), its heterogeneity was also significant. Conclusion: The incidence of death anxiety is relatively high. More often occur in elderly female patients. This requires more attention to life itself rather than death.

Abstract
The objectives of the study were to review the articles to identify (a) the epidemiology of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19); (b) the clinical characteristics of SLE patients with COVID-19; (c) the treatment of COVID-19 in SLE patients; and (d) the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on SLE patients. PubMed was systematically reviewed for literature published from December 2019 to June 2021. Our search was limited to human studies, with language restriction of English. Studies were included if they reported COVID-19 in SLE patients. Our systematic review included 52 studies. The prevalence of COVID-19 infection ranged from 0.0% to 18.1% in SLE patients, and the hospitalisation rates ranged from 0.24% to 10.6%. COVID-19 infection is likely to mimic SLE flare. Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) was ineffective in prevention of COVID-19, and SLE patients with COVID-19 faced difficulty in healthcare access, had financial constraints and suffered from psychological distress during the pandemic. The pandemic had a significant effect on mental and physical health. Adequate healthcare access, along with containment policies, social distancing measures and psychological nursing was required.
