Cancer rehabilitation has become a critical component in improving patients' quality of life,reducing treatment side effects,and promoting functional recovery.This consensus,grounded in the latest global research and clinical practices,establishes systematic assessment criteria and intervention strategies for cancer rehabilitation.The consensus was developed using the Delphi method,with a multidisciplinary expert panel integrating evidence from international guidelines,systematic reviews,randomized controlled trials,and expert opinions to formulate scientifically robust and clinically feasible rehabilitation strategies.The consensus defines the target population and objectives of cancer rehabilitation,emphasizing that rehabilitation should span the entire treatment continuum,including prehabilitation before treatment,rehabilitation interventions during therapy,and long-term recovery.For assessments,the consensus recommends adopting the International Classification of Functioning,Disability,and Health framework to comprehensively evaluate patients' body structure/function,activity and participation levels,and environmental factors,alongside proposing standardized assessment tools.For interventions,the consensus outlines “Five Core Prescriptions for Cancer Rehabilitation”: exercise,nutrition,medication,psychological support,and palliative care.Additionally,it highlights the pivotal role of multidisciplinary teams in cancer rehabilitation,advocating for dynamic assessment and communication mechanisms to optimize rehabilitation protocols and enhance outcomes.
Subcutaneous emphysema is a common complication following lung cancer surgery,influenced by factors such as disease type,surgical technique,incision selection,and suture quality.Extensive subcutaneous emphysema could lead to dyspnea,dysphagia,and localized abdominal pain,potentially progressing to respiratory failure in severe cases.The nursing care of patients with subcutaneous emphysema is a crucial aspect of clinical management,positively impacting their quality of life.Currently,there is a lack of expert consensus or guidelines for the nursing of patients with subcutaneous emphysema after lung cancer surgery.To further standardize the management of patients with subcutaneous emphysema after lung cancer surgery,the Lung Cancer Case Management Professional Committee of the Guangdong Nursing Association and the Lung Oncology Branch of the Guangdong Medical Association jointly organized experts from related fields to formulate an expert consensus on nursing standards for patients with subcutaneous emphysema after lung cancer surgery,focusing on the occurrence mechanism,grading standards,prevention and monitoring,intervention,and nursing of patients with subcutaneous emphysema after lung cancer surgery,aiming to provide scientific and systematic guidance for clinical nursing practice.
To identify the risk factors for delayed recovery after surgery in infants with non-restrictive ventricular septal defects (VSD),in order to provide evidence for early intervention and optimization of treatment strategies in clinical practice.
Methods
This study included 86 infants with nonrestrictive VSD who underwent surgery at the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery of Capital Institute of Pediatrics between October 2016 and January 2025.The infants were divided into two groups based on whether their postoperative ICU stay exceeded the median duration (4 days): normal recovery group(ICU stay≤4 days,n=49) and delayed recovery group (ICU stay>4 days,n=37).Univariate analysis was performed on the general data as well as preoperative,intraoperative,and postoperative clinical indicators of both groups,and variables with statistical significance were included in a binary logistic regression analysis to identify the risk factors for delayed recovery after surgery.
Results
Significant differences between the two groups were found in terms of weight,admission heart rate,respiratory status,N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide,heart function classification,preoperative pulmonary hypertension,and postoperative intubation time (P<0.05).Binary logistic regression analysis revealed that the regression coefficients for admission respiratory status,preoperative pulmonary hypertension,and postoperative intubation time were 2.923,0.053,and 0.071,respectively,all showing statistical significance (P<0.05),and the odds ratios were 6.84,1.055,and 1.073,respectively.
Conclusion
Preoperative pulmonary hypertension,admission respiratory status,and postoperative intubation time are independent risk factors for delayed recovery in infants with non-restrictive VSD.Early intervention and optimization of treatment are crucial in clinical practice to reduce the occurrence of delayed recovery and improve treatment outcomes.
To analyze the pathogen distribution and risk factors for peritoneal dialysis(PD)-associated peritonitis (PDAP) in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
Methods
Clinical data of 231 ESRD patients undergoing PD at Ansteel Group General Hospital from January 2019 to January 2024 were retrospectively collected.Biochemical indicators and comorbidities were compared between the PDAP group and the control group,with risk factors identified using logistic regression.
Results
Among the 231 PD patients included,128 episodes of PDAP occurred.Gram-positive bacteria,predominantly Staphylococcus epidermidis,accounted for 75 cases (58.59%).Gram-negative bacteria,primarily Escherichia coli,caused 32 cases (25.0%).Other pathogens included Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (2 cases,1.56%) and fungi (3 cases,2.34%).Risk factors identified for PDAP included hypoalbuminemia,anemia,comorbid diabetes,and hypokalemia (P<0.05).
Conclusion
The primary pathogens of PDAP are Staphylococcus epidermidis and Escherichia coli.Key risk factors for PDAP include comorbid diabetes,hypoalbuminemia,anemia,and hypokalemia.
To investigate the association between serum 25(OH)D levels and islet β-cell function in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients,and assess the therapeutic effects of vitamin D (VD) supplementation on pancreatic islet function in VD-deficient T2DM subjects,with the objective of establishing an evidence-based treatment approach.
Methods
A total of 440 patients with T2DM who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected from the Department of Endocrinology,The First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University.General clinical data and biochemical parameters were collected,and the 2-hour C-peptide to fasting C-peptide ratio (2hC-P/C-P) was calculated to assess pancreatic islet function.The patients were stratified into three groups based on VD levels,and differences in clinical indicators among the groups were compared,followed by correlation analysis.Additionally,48 T2DM patients were followed after VD supplementation to evaluate changes in islet function before and after intervention.
Results
Among the three groups with varying VD levels,fasting blood glucose (FBG),2-hour postprandial blood glucose (2hPG),and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) progressively decreased,while 2hC-P/C-P increased with higher VD levels,with statistically significant differences (P<0.05).Both Spearman correlation analysis and partial correlation analysis demonstrated significant associations between 25(OH)D levels and islet β-cell function as well as glycemic control (P<0.05).After VD supplementation,FBG,2hPG,and HbA1c decreased,whereas 2hC-P/C-P increased compared to baseline,with all changes being statistically significant (P<0.05).
Conclusion
VD levels influence islet β-cell function in T2DM patients.Supplementation with VD in VD-deficient individuals may improve β-cell function and glycemic control.Therefore,routine screening of VD levels should be incorporated into T2DM management,and VD supplementation should be considered alongside conventional glucose-lowering therapies.
