RÉSUMÉ
Objective:To systematically evaluate and integrate the qualitative research of the practical experience and practical difficulties of advance care planning (ACP), so as to provide a reference for subsequent clinical nurses to better carry out ACP.Methods:PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database were collected the qualitative research on the practical experience and practical difficulties of nurses′advance care planing, and the search time was the database establishment until August 1, 2022. Literature quality evaluation was conducted by the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) (2016), and the results were summarized using Meta integration method.Results:A total of 13 studies were included, and 39 studies were summarized into 11 new categories, forming 4 integrated results: nurses′ cognition of ACP practice, emotional experience of nurses′ ACP practice, personal factors that hinder ACP practice, and external environmental factors that hinder ACP practice.Conclusions:In ACP practice, nurses should be actively guided to have positive cognitive and emotional experience to improve their competence in ACP practice. At the same time, government departments should be united to support, integrate hospitals, society and other forces to formulate coping strategies against obstacles, so as to promote the development and practice of ACP.

Objective:To construct of comprehensive quality of evaluation index system about palliative care in general hospitals, so as to provide reference for promoting the scientific and standardized development of palliative care.Methods:Based on the structure-process-outcome quality model, literature research and Delphi method were used to determine the quality of palliative care evalution index system and index weight for general hospitals.Results:A total of 12 experts were consulted for two rounds,the rates of questionnaire retrieve were 12/15 and 12/12 respectively. The authoritative coefficients were 0.909 and 0.879, the Kendall′s W values were 0.27, 0.32 and 0.26 respectively with good coordination degree ( χ2=6.50, 106.62, 494.64, all P<0.05). Finally, the quality of palliative care indicator system in general hospitals was constructed, which included 3 first-level indicators, 30 second-level indicators and 157 third-level indicators. Conclusions:The establishment process of the construction of quality of palliative care indicator system in general hospitals was scientific and reasonable, focusing on the development characteristics of palliative care and can make significant contributions to improve the quality of palliative care.
RÉSUMÉ
This article summarized the overview of diagnosis related groups (DRGs), the necessity of comprehensively popularizing and applying DRGs in specialized hospitals and general hospitals, the different methods and effects of nursing human resource allocation based on DRGs in specialized hospitals and general hospitals at home and abroad, and analyzed the different challenges and opportunities faced by DRGs in the implementation of human resource allocation in two types of hospitals. According to the types and characteristics of hospitals, this paper put forward some corresponding suggestions and prospects for the future, such as intelligent human resource prediction system and the construction of information sharing platform, so as to provide reference for the comprehensive promotion of DRGs in different types of hospitals in China.
RÉSUMÉ
With the acceleration of the aging process of the population, the demand for joint replacement continues to increase. Under the background of enhanced recovery after surgery, outpatient joint replacement has become a safe, economic and effective model to shorten the average length of stay and reduce the cost of hospitalization. It has been widely used in foreign countries, but there are still some limitations in the development and promotion in China. Therefore, this study intends to review the perioperative management plan and implementation effect of joint replacement in foreign countries, in order to provide reference for the implementation and improvement of the concept of fast track surgery for bone and joint in China.

OBJECTIVE@#To analyze the action of miRNA-326 on its target gene BCL-XL and the molecular mechanism of platelet apoptosis regulated by miRNAs.@*METHODS@#Dual-luciferase vectors containing respectively the wild-type and mutant 3'-untranslated region (3'UTR) fragments of the BCL-XL gene were constructed with firefly and renilla luciferases and transfected into 293T cells. Relative fluorescence intensities of the transfected cells were measured.@*RESULTS@#Dual-luciferase reporter gene vectors for PsiCHECK- BCL-XL -3'UTR-WT (wild-type) and PsiCHECK- BCL-XL -3' UTR-MT (variant) were respectively constructed. Relative fluorescence intensities of the 293T cells co-transfected by miRNA-326 and PsiCHECK- BCL-XL -3'UTR-WT plasmid were significantly lower compared with the control group (co-transfected by a miRNA-326 negative sequence and PsiCHECK- BCL-XL -3' UTR-WT plasmid) ( P = 0.034). The relative fluorescence intensity was also significantly reduced in cells co-transfected by miRNA-326 and PsiCHECK- BCL-XL -3' UTR-WT plasmid compared with the mutant control group co-transfected by miRNA-326 and PsiCHECK- BCL-XL -3'UTR-MT plasmid (P = 0.022).@*CONCLUSION@#miRNA-326 may participate in the regulation of platelet apoptosis by acting on the 3'-UTR of the BCL-XL gene.
RÉSUMÉ
Fatigue is commonly experienced in patients with advanced kidney disease and associated with poor outcomes. The purpose of this review was to discuss the prevalence, assessment methods and contributing factors of fatigue in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and also examined possible interventions to improve fatigue and concludes by defining some future research directions.

Objective To investigate the levels of cancer related fatigue (CRF) and the correlations between CRF and serum inflammatory factors and hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in patients with gastrointestinal cancer.Methods The CRF level was assessed by brief fatigue inventory (BFI).The level of C-reactive protein (CRP) was measured by immunoturbidimetry, and the level of cortisol was measured by electrochemiluminesence.The levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and norepinephrine (NE) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results The average total score of CRF was 3.15±1.93, and the degree was mild to moderate, which was positively correlated with the CRP (r=0.321, P=0.000), TNF-α (r=0.265, P=0.000), NE (r=0.174, P=0.015) and ACTH (r=0.257, P=0.000), but was not correlated with the cortisol (r=0.033, P=0.652).Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score (t=8.081, P=0.000), education (t=-4.244, P=0.000), treatment (t=4.563, P=0.000), time from diagnosis to sampling (t=3.453, P=0.001) and CRP (t=2.837, P=0.006) were important factors of CRF.Conclusion The CRF status is common in gastrointestinal cancer patients.The CRF is correlated with the NE and ACTH of HPA axis.Medical staff should pay attention to the inflammatory factors and hormone levels to improve the fatigue status and the quality of patients.

Fatigue, which is one of the most commonly reported symptoms in cancer, can negatively impact the functional status and the health-related quality of life of individuals. Although awareness and study of CRF have grown in recent years,the biological mechanisms and risk factors that induce CRF remain unclear.This paper systematically reviews the available evidence on the biological mechanisms and the risk factors to guide the development of targeted, individualized interventions for cancer-related fatigue.
