基于理论域框架的ICU护士执行身体约束缩减行动障碍因素的质性研究

目的：探讨ICU护士执行身体约束缩减行动的障碍因素，为制定身体约束标准化管理方案提供依据。方法：基于理论域框架（TDF）制定访谈提纲，采用目的抽样法对天津市某三级甲等医院的12名ICU护士进行半结构式访谈，按照TDF的相关领域对转录后的资料进行归类，用内容分析法对访谈资料进行分析。结果：ICU护士对身体约束缩减行动理解存在偏差、对约束替代措施内容的不熟悉是其执行身体约束缩减行动的障碍因素之一；身体约束缩减方案评估工具、决策流程的不规范对缩减约束行动的开展造成了一定阻碍；环境因素的限制及对缩减约束结果的担忧，使ICU护士没有足够的信心去执行；科室缺乏支持缩减约束的组织氛围，难以引起护士对执行约束缩减行动的重视，进而削减执行的动力。结合理论域框架将上述因素分别归属为知识、自我效能、环境背景和资源、社会影响、行为规范5个领域。结论：知识、自我效能、环境背景和资源、社会影响及行为规范为ICU护士执行身体约束缩减行动的障碍因素。科室要在明确障碍因素的基础上，加强领导层对执行缩减约束的重视和支持。制定缩减约束评估决策规范化流程以及培训方案，倡导团队协作，创造支持身体约束缩减行动的组织氛围，坚定ICU护士执行缩减约束的信心，促进身体约束缩减行动的持续实施。

Synthesis and automated fluorine-18 radiolabeling of new PSMA-617 derivatives with a CuAAC radiosynthetic approach

In the last decade, the development of new radiopharmaceuticals for the imaging and therapy of prostate cancer has been a highly active and important area of research, especially focusing on the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), an antigen which is upregulated in prostate, as well as in other tumor cells. A large variety of PSMA ligands have been radiolabeled, to date. Among the various derivatives, PSMA-617 resulted to be one of the most interesting in terms of interaction with the antigen and clinical properties, and its lutetium-177 labeled version has recently been approved by regulatory agencies for therapeutic purposes. For this reasons, the radiolabeling with fluorine-18 of a PSMA-617 derivative might be of interest. Beside other methodologies to radiolabel macromolecules with fluorine-18, the “click-chemistry” approach resulted to be very useful, and the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) is considered one of most efficient and reliable. This paper proposes the synthesis of a suitable precursor for the radiolabeling with fluorine-18 of a new PSMA-617 derivative. The whole radiosynthetic procedure has been fully automated, and the final product, which proved to be stable in plasma, has been obtained with radiochemical yield and purity suitable for subsequent preclinical studies.     

同型半胱氨酸、维生素D、C、E、B12及叶酸与胃癌关系的研究进展北大核心

胃癌作为临床最常见的肿瘤之一,常因确诊疾病较晚而影响治疗效果,胃镜活检后的病理虽然作为确诊的金标准,但是由于此方式过程痛苦,操作复杂,费用较高,且具有侵入性,可能会导致患者拒绝操作而难普及于临床,因此积极找寻胃癌有效的监测指标十分必要。近年来,很多学者研究维生素与胃癌的相关关系,并试图通过摄取某些维生素降低胃癌发生率,延缓病情及改善预后,也有通过检测血清中维生素的水平给早期胃癌的诊断提供帮助。本文就同型半胱氨酸、维生素D、维生素C、维生素E、维生素B12及叶酸在胃癌中的作用机制,及其在血清中水平与胃癌关系的相关研究进展进行简要综述,为临床胃癌诊疗提供新思路。     

Disparity in Utilization of Multiagent Therapy for Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia in the United States

BackgroundDespite high rate of cure in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) in clinical trials, outcomes in real-world practice are dismal. We utilized National Cancer Database (NCDB) to explore utilization of multiagent therapy in APL and identify any disparities in treatment in real-world practices.Patients and MethodsNCDB categorizes use of systemic chemotherapy into single agent versus multiagent therapy. Some patients received hormonal therapy, immunotherapy, and unknown therapy; details of these treatments could not be ascertained. We therefore used multiple logistic regression analysis to evaluate effects of covariates on the probability of multiagent therapy use in 6678 patients.ResultsCompared to patients >60 years, patients aged 0 to 18 years (hazard ratio[HR] 3.2, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.8-5.5, P< .0001), 19 to 40 years (HR 1.6, 95% CI 1.03-2.54, P= .03), and 41 to 60 years (HR 1.6, 95% CI 1.3-1.9, P< .0001) were more likely to receive multiagent therapy. Patients with Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) of 0 (HR 1.6, 95% CI 1.2-2.3, P= .001) and CCI of 1 (HR 1.4, 95% CI 1.0-1.9, P= .04) had a higher likelihood of receiving multiagent therapy than patients with CCI ≥ 3. Patients treated at academic cancer centers, compared to those treated at community cancer center (HR 0.5, 95% CI 0.3-0.7, P= .001), comprehensive community cancer center (HR 0.7, 95% CI 0.6-0.8, P< .0001), and integrated network cancer center (HR 0.8, 95% CI 0.6-0.9, P= .02) were more likely to be treated with multiagent therapy. Compared to the patients with private insurance, those with Medicaid had increased likelihood (HR 1.2, 95% CI 1.0-1.4, P= .04) whereas uninsured patients had a lower likelihood of receiving multiagent therapy (HR 0.6, 95% CI 0.5-0.8, P= .0005).ConclusionTo our knowledge, this study is the first and the largest scale analysis of treatment practices in APL in real-world practices. Our findings highlight significant disparities in treatment of APL based on age, insurance, and health-system factors.     

Lymph node micrometastasis of poorly differentiated node-negative gastric cancer risks a worse-than-expected survival outcome under standard management algorithm

BackgroundInvestigation of lymph node micrometastasis (mN) of gastric cancer has been focused on either T1 disease or T1-4N0 disease. Yet, it is unclear whether standard management algorithm toward poorly differentiated gastric cancer (PDGC) is more vulnerable to existence of mN, given its inherently biological aggressiveness, as compared with other histological types.Patients and methodsA surgical series (n = 3456) of gastric cancer categorized by histological differentiation was enrolled to analyze survival stratification. Of them, a cohort of T1-T4 N0 PDGC (n = 100) were subjected to cytokeratin immunohistochemistry, a surrogate of mN.ResultsCancer-specific survival by AJCC8 staging system could be nicely differentiated in both well-/moderately differentiated and signet ring cell types, while those between stage IA versus IB (p = 0.105), and stage IB versus IIA (p = 0.141) in PDGC could not. Thirteen (13%) out of 100 node-negative PDGC cases exhibited mN, with 5, 2, 5 and 1 cases occurring in T1, T2, T3, and T4 stage, respectively, without identifiable contributing factors. Prognostic performance of AJCC8 working upon PDGC became more discriminative by incorporating mN, as hazard ratio of stage IIIC referenced to stage IA increased from 43 to 78.ConclusionDefective discriminative survival of PDGC by standard staging algorithm prompted us to survey mN occurring in T1-T4N0 PDGC. The prognostic performance of AJCC8 working upon PDGC was enhanced by incorporating mN. As so, we recommend documentation of mN exclusively on node-negative PDGC that helps unveil stage migration phenomenon and switch to appropriate adjuvant therapy in need.
