Individuals communicate to acquire relevant knowledge about an epidemic, which influences their decisions to adopt protective measures.However, whether to disseminate specific information is also a behavioral decision. In light of this understanding, we develop a coupled information–vaccination–epidemic model to depict these co-evolutionary dynamics in a three-layer network. Negative information dissemination and vaccination are treated as separate decision-making processes. We then examine the combined effects of herd and risk motives on information dissemination and vaccination decisions through the lens of game theory. The microscopic Markov chain approach(MMCA) is used to describe the dynamic process and to derive the epidemic threshold. Simulation results indicate that increasing the cost of negative information dissemination and providing timely clarification can effectively control the epidemic. Furthermore, a phenomenon of diminishing marginal utility is observed as the cost of dissemination increases, suggesting that authorities do not need to overinvest in suppressing negative information. Conversely, reducing the cost of vaccination and increasing vaccine efficacy emerge as more effective strategies for outbreak control. In addition, we find that the scale of the epidemic is greater when the herd motive dominates behavioral decision-making. In conclusion, this study provides a new perspective for understanding the complexity of epidemic spreading by starting with the construction of different behavioral decisions.展开更多

Methods: This study is a prospective controlled trial that selected patients undergoing two-port thoracoscopic valve surgery at a certain hospital from January 2019 to December 2024. Patients were randomly assigned to the control group and the negative pressure group using a random number table method. The control group consisted of 30 patients (20 males, 10 females, mean age 42.03 ± 12.89 years), and the negative pressure group consisted of 35 patients (26 males, 9 females, mean age 41.84 ± 11.83 years). The control group received traditional chest drainage, while the negative pressure group received negative pressure chest drainage. Postoperative pain scores, hospital stay, drainage time, number of tube blockages, and incidences of pneumothorax or subcutaneous emphysema were recorded and statistically analyzed. Results: The negative pressure group had a significantly shorter postoperative drainage time compared to the control group (49.09 ± 11.99 hours vs. 79.10 ± 7.32 hours, P < 0.001). The postoperative pain score was lower in the negative pressure group (4.49 ± 1.27 vs. 7.03 ± 0.85, P < 0.001), and the hospital stay was significantly shorter (9.83 ± 1.69 days vs. 14.73 ± 2.32 days, P < 0.001). The incidence of pneumothorax or subcutaneous emphysema was significantly lower in the negative pressure group than in the control group (14.29% vs. 56.67%, P = 0.0003). Conclusion: The application of negative pressure chest drainage in patients after two-port thoracoscopic valve surgery can effectively reduce postoperative pain, shorten hospital stay, and lower the incidence of tube blockage and pneumothorax, demonstrating good clinical outcomes.展开更多

Methods: Ninety-two patients scheduled for elective surgery in the surgical department between August 2021 and August 2023 were selected and divided into groups using a random number table. The observation group received preoperative psychological interventions, while the reference group received standard preoperative care. Anxiety and depression scores, fear grading, vital signs, and self-efficacy levels were compared. Results: After the intervention, the anxiety and depression scores in the observation group were lower than those in the reference group, and the proportion of fear graded as Level I was higher. During the waiting period and 15 minutes before entering the operating room, vital sign levels in the observation group were lower than those in the reference group. Additionally, the self-efficacy scores of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the reference group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Preoperative psychological interventions can alleviate negative emotions, stabilize preoperative vital signs, and significantly improve self-efficacy in patients undergoing elective surgery, demonstrating high feasibility for implementation.展开更多

文摘Triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC)represents an aggressive breast cancer subtype with poor prognosis and limited targeted treatment options.This investigation examined the anticancer potential of Caerulomycin A(Cae A),a natural compound derived from marine actinomycetes,against TNBC.Cae A demonstrated selective inhibition of viability and proliferation in TNBC cell lines,including 4T1,MDA-MB-231,and MDA-MB-468,through apoptosis induction.Mechanistic analyses revealed that the compound induced sustained endoplasmic reticulum(ER)stress and subsequent upregulation of C/EBP homologous protein(CHOP)expression,resulting in mitochondrial damage-mediated apoptosis.Inhibition of ER stress or CHOP expression knockdown reversed mitochondrial damage and apoptosis,highlighting the essential role of ER stress and CHOP in Cae A's anti-tumor mechanism.Both oxygen consumption rate(OCR)and extracellular acidification rate(ECAR)decreased in TNBC cells following Cae A treatment,indicating reduced mitochondrial respiratory and glycolytic capacities.This diminished energy metabolism potentially triggers ER stress and subsequent apoptosis.Furthermore,Cae A exhibited significant anti-tumor effects in the 4T1 tumor model in vivo without apparent toxicity.The compound also effectively inhibited human TNBC organoid growth.These results indicate that Cae A may serve as a potential therapeutic agent for TNBC,with its efficacy likely mediated through the disruption of glucose metabolism and the induction of ER stress-associated apoptosis.

文摘Adolescence is a crucial period marked by significant developmental changes,during which risk-taking behaviors can be both a normative part of development and a potential source of concern.However,prior research has focused predominantly on the adverse aspects of risk-taking(i.e.,negative risk-taking),overlooked the positive counterpart(i.e.,positive risk-taking),and lacked a detailed examination of both.This study aims to elucidate the distinct characteristics and interrelationships of positive and negative risk-taking behaviors among adoles-cents and to identify the key factors that influence these behaviors.Through a comprehensive synthesis of theoretical and empirical literature,we explore the multifaceted nature of risk-taking,highlighting its complex influencing factors,including individual traits,family dynamics,peer influence,school environment,and broader community contexts.By identifying the shared and unique factors contributing to positive and negative risk-taking behaviors,we can enable adolescents to navigate this complex stage of life and design targeted interventions.Future research directions include the application of person-centered approaches,the implementation of longitudinal tracking and the interactive effects of influencing factors,among other aspects.
文摘OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the therapeutic effect of a selfformulated Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM),Shugan Jieyu San(疏肝解郁散),on improvement of liver function and depression alleviation in the patients with triple negative breast cancer(TNBC).METHODS:A total of 60 patients diagnosed with TNBC and depression were enrolled and randomly assigned to either the control group(receiving routine tumor treatment and duloxetine)or the treatment group(receiving the TCM in addition to routine treatment).RESULTS:Both treatment and control groups showed a reduction in depressive symptoms and improved daily living abilities after treatment.However,the treatment group demonstrated significantly better outcomes compared to the control group.Furthermore,the levels of dopamine and serotonin in the serum increased in both groups after 8 weeks of treatment,while the treatment group exhibited superior results.CONCLUSIONS:This TCM showed promising results in reducing depressive symptoms and improving daily abilities in patients with TNBC and comorbid depression,which was verified by the increase in serum levels of dopamine and serotonin,suggesting the potential involvement of these neurotransmitters in the therapeutic effects of this TCM.

文摘Hexanal contributes significantly to meat flavor.The aim of this study was to identify the metabolic pathways of hexanal formation in chicken meat.We found 32 metabolites associated with hexanal content in chicken meat,mainly including fatty acids(linoleic acid,etc.,positive correlation)and some amino acids(L-proline,etc.,negative correlation).A comparative analysis of the expression of these 32 metabolites between two groups of chickens with high-and low-hexanal content revealed that L-proline and phenylacetaldehyde were downregulated,while ADP-ribose and 4-methylphenol were upregulated in the high-hexanal content chickens.It was also found that the increase of ADP-ribose induced the conversion of L-proline to other amino acids,such as arginine,through a process likely involving the pyrimidine metabolism pathway,leading to a reduction in proline content,which in turn abolished the inhibitory effect of proline on hexanal and enhanced the formation of hexanal.These findings confirm the effect of linoleic acid on hexanal content,and also reveal a negative regulatory effect of proline on the production of hexanal and its elimination mechanism in chicken meat.

文摘Information plays a crucial role in guiding behavioral decisions during public health emergencies. Individuals communicate to acquire relevant knowledge about an epidemic, which influences their decisions to adopt protective measures.However, whether to disseminate specific information is also a behavioral decision. In light of this understanding, we develop a coupled information–vaccination–epidemic model to depict these co-evolutionary dynamics in a three-layer network. Negative information dissemination and vaccination are treated as separate decision-making processes. We then examine the combined effects of herd and risk motives on information dissemination and vaccination decisions through the lens of game theory. The microscopic Markov chain approach(MMCA) is used to describe the dynamic process and to derive the epidemic threshold. Simulation results indicate that increasing the cost of negative information dissemination and providing timely clarification can effectively control the epidemic. Furthermore, a phenomenon of diminishing marginal utility is observed as the cost of dissemination increases, suggesting that authorities do not need to overinvest in suppressing negative information. Conversely, reducing the cost of vaccination and increasing vaccine efficacy emerge as more effective strategies for outbreak control. In addition, we find that the scale of the epidemic is greater when the herd motive dominates behavioral decision-making. In conclusion, this study provides a new perspective for understanding the complexity of epidemic spreading by starting with the construction of different behavioral decisions.
文摘Objective: This study aims to investigate the drainage effect and clinical outcomes of negative pressure chest drainage in patients after two-port thoracoscopic valve surgery, comparing the differences in postoperative pain, hospital stay, and other factors between the negative pressure group and the control group. Methods: This study is a prospective controlled trial that selected patients undergoing two-port thoracoscopic valve surgery at a certain hospital from January 2019 to December 2024. Patients were randomly assigned to the control group and the negative pressure group using a random number table method. The control group consisted of 30 patients (20 males, 10 females, mean age 42.03 ± 12.89 years), and the negative pressure group consisted of 35 patients (26 males, 9 females, mean age 41.84 ± 11.83 years). The control group received traditional chest drainage, while the negative pressure group received negative pressure chest drainage. Postoperative pain scores, hospital stay, drainage time, number of tube blockages, and incidences of pneumothorax or subcutaneous emphysema were recorded and statistically analyzed. Results: The negative pressure group had a significantly shorter postoperative drainage time compared to the control group (49.09 ± 11.99 hours vs. 79.10 ± 7.32 hours, P < 0.001). The postoperative pain score was lower in the negative pressure group (4.49 ± 1.27 vs. 7.03 ± 0.85, P < 0.001), and the hospital stay was significantly shorter (9.83 ± 1.69 days vs. 14.73 ± 2.32 days, P < 0.001). The incidence of pneumothorax or subcutaneous emphysema was significantly lower in the negative pressure group than in the control group (14.29% vs. 56.67%, P = 0.0003). Conclusion: The application of negative pressure chest drainage in patients after two-port thoracoscopic valve surgery can effectively reduce postoperative pain, shorten hospital stay, and lower the incidence of tube blockage and pneumothorax, demonstrating good clinical outcomes.
文摘Objective: To assess the impact of preoperative psychological interventions on the care of patients undergoing elective surgery. Methods: Ninety-two patients scheduled for elective surgery in the surgical department between August 2021 and August 2023 were selected and divided into groups using a random number table. The observation group received preoperative psychological interventions, while the reference group received standard preoperative care. Anxiety and depression scores, fear grading, vital signs, and self-efficacy levels were compared. Results: After the intervention, the anxiety and depression scores in the observation group were lower than those in the reference group, and the proportion of fear graded as Level I was higher. During the waiting period and 15 minutes before entering the operating room, vital sign levels in the observation group were lower than those in the reference group. Additionally, the self-efficacy scores of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the reference group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Preoperative psychological interventions can alleviate negative emotions, stabilize preoperative vital signs, and significantly improve self-efficacy in patients undergoing elective surgery, demonstrating high feasibility for implementation.
文摘Objective:To analyze the effect of interventional nursing on the therapeutic effect,negative emotion and quality of life of patients undergoing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular interventional therapy.Methods:Eighty-four patients who received cardio-cerebral vascular interventional therapy in a hospital during January 2024–December 2024 were selected,and were divided into the control group and the observation group by the mean score method,each with 42 cases.The control group was given standardized perioperative care,and the observation group was given interventional nursing intervention on this basis.The two groups were compared in terms of clinical efficacy,negative emotion score,incidence of related complications,quality of life score and nursing satisfaction.Results:The total effective rate of treatment of patients in the observation group(95.24%)was significantly higher than that of the control group(78.57%),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);before nursing care,the difference between SDS and SAS scores of patients in the two groups was insignificant(P>0.05);after nursing care,the scores of various indexes of the two groups were significantly reduced and the observation group was lower than that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);the patients in the observation group had more negative moods than those in the control group;the complication rate of patients in the observation group(2.38%)was significantly lower than that of the control group(19.04%),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);the quality of life scores of patients in the observation group were higher than that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);the satisfaction rate of patients’nursing care in the observation group was 97.62%,which was higher than that of the control group(78.57%),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The difference is statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:The implementation of interventional nursing intervention for patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular interventional therapy can further enhance the clinical therapeutic effect,improve the negative emotions of patients’anxiety and depression,reduce the risk of related complications,improve the quality of life of patients,and obtain higher satisfaction.

文摘BACKGROUND Neuroendocrine dysfunction,especially involving the hypothalamic-pituitarythyroid axis,plays a critical role in the onset and progression of schizophrenia.Alterations in thyroid stimulating hormone(TSH),triiodothyronine(T3),free T3(FT3),thyroxine(T4),and free T4 have been implicated in this process.Although previous studies have established an association between thyroid function and psychiatric symptoms,how thyroid hormone levels vary with disease duration remains underexplored.AIM To investigate duration stage-specific associations between thyroid hormones and psychotic symptoms among inpatients with stable schizophrenia.METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted at Zigong Mental Health Center,China,and included 237 hospitalized patients with stable schizophrenia.Participants were stratified into three groups based on disease duration:0-10 years,10.1-20 years,and over 20 years.Peripheral blood samples were collected to measure serum thyroid hormone levels.Psychotic symptoms were assessed using the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale.Covariate-adjusted linear regression analyses were performed to assess the relationships between thyroid hormone levels and Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale sub-scale scores.RESULTS The relationship between thyroid hormones and psychotic symptoms varied by disease duration.In patients with a disease course of 0-10 years,T4[β=-0.848;95%confidence interval(CI):-1.564 to-0.133;P=0.021]and FT3(β=-2.483;95%CI:-4.693 to-0.273;P=0.028)levels were significantly inversely associated with general psychopathology scores.Among those with 10.1-20 years of disease,only TSH showed a significant negative correlation with general psychopathology(β=-1.429;95%CI:-2.348 to-0.509;P=0.003).No significant correlations were found in the>20 years group.CONCLUSION The associations between thyroid hormones and psychotic symptoms vary according to the duration of schizophrenia(T4/FT3 early;TSH mid),enabling the development of stage-adapted models and management.

文摘As a renewable energy source,the thermal conversion of poultry manure,is a promising waste treatment solution that can generate circular economic outputs such as energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.Currently,pressurized gasification of poultry manure is still a novel research field,especially when combined with a novel technological route of oxy-fuel gasification.Oxy-fuel gasification is a newly proposed and promising gasification technology for power generation that facilitates future carbon capture and storage.In this work,based on a commercially operated industrial-scale chicken manure gasification power plant in Singapore,we presented an interesting first exploration of the coupled pressurization technology for oxy-fuel gasification of poultry manure using CFD numerical simulation,analyzed the effects of pressure and oxygen enrichment concentration as well as the coupling mechanism between them,and discussed the conversion and emission of nitrogen-and sulfur-containing pollutants.The results indicate that under oxy-fuel gasification condition(Oxy-30,i.e.,30%O_(2)/70%CO_(2)),as the pressure increases from 0.1 to 0.5 MPa,the CO concentration in the syngas increases slightly,the H_(2)concentration increases to approximately 25%,and the CH4 concentration(less than 1%)decreases,resulting in an increase in the calorific value of syngas from 5.2 to 5.6 MJ·m^(-3).Compared to atmospheric pressure conditions,a relatively higher oxygen-enriched concentration interval(Oxy-40 to Oxy-50)under pressurized conditions is advantageous for autothermal gasification.Pressurization increases NO precursors production and also promotes homogeneous and heterogeneous reduction of NO,and provides favorable conditions for self-desulfurization.This work offers reference for the realization of a highly efficient and low-energy-consumption thermochemical treatment of livestock manure coupled with negative carbon emission technology.
