RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the correlation between positive psychological capital, post-traumatic growth, social support, and quality of life (QOL) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from October 2022 to May 2023. A sample of 330 hospitalized SLE patients was selected for this study. The collected data included demographic information, the SLE disease activity index, the Positive Mental Capital Questionnaire, the Chinese version of the Post-Traumatic Growth Scale, the Social Support Rating Scale, and the Chinese version of the Lupus Quality of Life Scale. RESULTS: The QOL score among the 330 SLE patients was measured as M(P25, P75) of 105 (83.00,124.00). Positive psychological capital, post-traumatic growth, and social support demonstrated significant positive correlations with the QOL in SLE patients (p < 0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that literacy, disease level, disease duration, occupation, marital status, psychological capital, social support, and post-traumatic growth were influential factors associated with the QOL in SLE patients. CONCLUSION: Medical professionals should be attentive to the psychological well-being of SLE patients and should consider implementing early psychological interventions. These interventions are crucial for enhancing the QOL for individuals diagnosed with SLE.

OBJECTIVE: To assess whether goal-directed fluid management can prevent gastrointestinal complications in major surgery. METHODS: Electronic databases including Cochrane library(Issue 3,2010), Pubmed, EMbase, Highwire, CBM, and CNKI were searched. The date of search was between January 2000 and December 2010. Randomized controlled trials(RCTs) were indentified studying association of goal-directed therapy (GDT) with gastrointestinal complications. Study selection and meta-analysis were conducted according to the Cochrane Handbook for systematic reviews. Data were extracted from these trials by 3 reviewers independently and analyzed by RevMan 5.0 software. RESULTS: Ten trials involving 775 patients were included. GDT significantly improved oxygen supply(WMD=82.95, 95% CI: 17.43-148.46). GDT reduced postoperative hospital stay(WMD=-2.06, 95% CI: -2.95 - -1.17) and decreased postoperative complication rate after major surgery(RR=0.39, 95% CI: 0.29-0.52). CONCLUSION: Goal-directed fluid management can stabilize cardiac output, augment oxygen supply, and therefore reduce postoperative complications.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy and safety of gastrectomy abdominal drainage after gastrectomy in gastric cancer patients. METHODS: Cochrane systematic evaluation was used to search through Cochrane library (2007-No.3) of clinical comparative trail, PubMed (1976-2008), Embase (1982-2008), Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM 1979-2008), Chinese Scientific Journal Full-text Database (CSJD 1989-2008) and Chinese Journal Full-text Database (CJFD1994-2008), aided with manual retrieval and other retrievals. The quality of the assessment was independently evaluated and cross-checked by two evaluators. The results of homogeneous studies were analyzed with RevMan4.2.10 software. RESULTS: A total of 47 articles were retrieved. Three randomized controlled trials were involved. A total of 338 patients were studied. Of the 338 patients, 160 were treated with total gastrectomy, 178 subtotal gastrectomy. Among the 338 patients, 167 were treated without abdominal drainage. Above 3 trials did not report blind method and did not describe method of allocation concealment. No significant differences were found in pulmonary complication, wound infection, intra-abdominal abscess, clinical leakage and initiation of soft diet between abdominal drainage group and without abdominal drainage group. Statistical results showed odds ratio (OR)=1.23, 95% CI=0.49-3.07 for pulmonary complication; OR=1.09, 95% CI=0.36-3.29 for wound infection; OR=1.28, 95% CI=0.28-5.8 for intra-abdominal abscess; OR=1.53, 95% CI=0.25-9.42 for anastomotic leakage; OR=1.78, 95% CI=0.37-8.56 for hospital mortality; WMD=0.12, 95% CI=-0.11-0.35 for initiation of soft diet. Besides, significant difference was found in hospital stay (WMD=0.65, 95% CI=0.03-1.26), and abdominal drainage group was longer. CONCLUSION: Abdominal drainage after gastrectomy should not be recommended as a regular treatment for gastric cancer patients.

Hydrophobins are small fungal proteins which self-assemble on interfaces and significantly change the surface wettability. The self-assembled film of hydrophobin HFBI on a gold surface improved the surface hydrophilicity with water contact angle changing from 73.8+/-1.8 degrees to 45.3+/-1.4 degrees . A quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) analysis indicated that the HFBI coverage density on a gold surface was 588 ng cm(-2), and the self-assembled film remained stable under different pH values ranging from 1 to 13. A hydrophilic protein such as choline oxidase (ChOx) was then successfully immobilized on the HFBI modified gold surface. To evaluate the bioactivity of immobilized enzyme, an amperometric choline biosensor was constructed based on the Gold/HFBI/ChOx electrode, which produced as large as 4578.27 nA response current by 0.238 microg immobilized ChOx, when saturated by choline substrate. Comparing with our choline biosensors previously reported, the HFBI self-assembled film exhibited excellent capability to preserve the bioactivity of ChOx, hence a great potential in electrochemical biosensing is suggested.
