This is the first study in China to investigate the prevalence of workplace violence (WPV) and its long-term association with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among healthcare workers. Conducted across various time points from March 27, 2020, to April 10, 2023, the research employed a four-wave repeated cross-sectional design involving 14,993 healthcare workers from 32 provincial administrative regions across the country. Nurses accounted for 34.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how mild cognitive impairment (MCI), religiosity, and spirituality affect mortality rates in older adults, particularly in ethnic minority groups in mainland China.
  • Results show that MCI is linked to a higher risk of death, while high levels of religiosity and spirituality can lessen this risk.
  • The findings indicate that implementing community programs focused on religious and spiritual integration could potentially lower mortality rates for older adults with MCI in disadvantaged populations.

Background: Robot-assisted esophagectomy (RAE), video-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (VAMIE), and open esophagectomy (OE) all have significant roles in the management of esophageal cancer (EC). Few studies have compared efficacy and safety between RAE, VAMIE, and OE for resectable EC after neoadjuvant treatment. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the short-term outcomes between RAE, VAMIE, and OE for resectable EC after neoadjuvant treatment.

Traditional open thoracotomy (OT) is the gold standard treatment for patients with pulmonary metastases. However, it remains controversial whether video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) can provide comparable outcomes to OT. We conducted this review to compare the outcomes of VATS with OT in pulmonary metastasectomy (PM).

Background: To compare the surgical outcomes of patients with clinical stage I ground-glass opacity (GGO) lung adenocarcinomas with maximum diameters of ≤ 2 cm who underwent lobectomy versus limited resection.

Patients And Methods: We retrospectively reviewed cases of clinical stage I GGO lung adenocarcinoma with a diameter ≤ 2 cm that were treated via lobectomy or limited resection in our department between January 2011 and September 2018. The clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes were analyzed using a propensity score-matched comparison and a Cox regression model.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to develop a short form of State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and calculate the norms for the assessment of anxiety in surgical patients in mainland China.

Methods: Patients who were scheduled to carry out pulmonary surgery in our department were included. The sinicized 40-item STAI Form-Y was used to assess the anxiety on the surgery eve.

Background: The differential diagnosis of subcentimetre lung nodules with a diameter of less than 1 cm has always been one of the problems of imaging doctors and thoracic surgeons. We plan to create a deep learning model for the diagnosis of pulmonary nodules in a simple method.

Methods: Image data and pathological diagnosis of patients come from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from October 1, 2016, to October 1, 2019.

Bronchoscope is the core part of the interventional diagnosis and treatment technology for lung diseases, which has experienced more than 100 years of development history. It has gradually formed a diagnosis and treatment model of pulmonary diseases with cooperation of multi-clinical disciplines, deep integration of interventional minimally invasive techniques, and cross-integration of diversified diagnosis and treatment concepts. This article aimed to review the current status and development of interventional diagnosis and treatment techniques for lung diseases, and introduces the characteristics of the interventional treatment of our center.

Background: To explore the mechanisms of downregulation in inhibiting the proliferation of lung adenocarcinoma.

Methods: We obtained 85 specimens of human lung adenocarcinoma and specimens of adjacent nontumor tissues from the First Affiliated Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University. We then analyzed the expression of in these tissues and in lung adenocarcinoma and normal lung cell lines.

Lung cancer is the one of the malignant tumor of the highest morbidity and mortality over the world, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) makes up about 80%. Nowadays, molecular targeted therapy has been the first-line treatment for NSCLC. Epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) are increasingly used in the clinical treatment, but the EGFR-TKIs acquired resistance becomes the bottleneck of continuation of EGFR-TKIs therapy.

Ricolinostat (ACY-1215), a first-in-class selective HDAC6 inhibitor, exhibits antitumor effects alone or in combination with other drugs in various cancers. However, its efficacy in esophageal cancer remains unclear. In this study, we found that the high expression of HDAC6 was associated with poor prognosis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) tissues.

Emerging evidence indicates that acute rejection mainly associated with the inflammatory response is an independent risk factor for chronic rejection after lung transplantation. Monocytes are the main pro-inflammatory leukocytes infiltrating around the lesions and play vital roles in triggering the acute rejection. In the rat lung transplantation model, lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced severe acute rejection was strongly associated with advanced chronic rejection.

Objective: To investigate the prognostic impact of lymph node (LN) dissection on sublobar resection for stage IA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumors ≤2 cm.

Methods: All patients who underwent sublobar resection for stage IA NSCLC tumors ≤2 cm were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database. Patients were classified into no-LN dissection and LN dissection groups, and the latter was subclassified by the extent of LN dissection (1-3 regional LNs or ≥4 regional LNs).

This study aimed to semi-quantitatively evaluate the elastographic imaging color distribution of mediastinal and hilar lymph nodes (LNs), and explored its utility in helping define malignant and benign LNs for lung cancer patients. We prospectively collected patients who underwent preoperative mediastinal staging of suspected lung cancer by EBUS-TBNA. We analyzed the elastography color distribution of each LN and calculated the blue color proportion (BCP).
