Objective: To explore the effects of cluster nursing on VAS score and urinary system function of patients after percutaneous nephrolithotomy with pneumatic lithotripsy (PCNL).
Methods: November 2019-January 2019, 114 patients with PCNL who received treatment in our hospital were selected and randomly divided into two groups: the control group and the study group. The study group received cluster nursing, and the control group received routine nursing. Compare the Barthel index (BI), between two groups, SAS score, complications rate, surgical outcomes, pain scores, quality of life scores, knowledge awareness rate, and satisfaction rate were compared.
Results: There were no significant variations in Bi and SAS scores before the nursing ( > 0.05). The BI ratings were clearly higher after nursing, whereas the SAS and pain levels were considerably lower, however, the research group altered more dramatically (0.05). The study group's incidence of complications was lower (0.05) than the control group's; the study group's hospitalization cost was lower, and the hospitalization and lower bed activity were shorter (0.05); after the nursing, the organised quality score was significantly higher in both groups, but the research group changed more dramatically (0.05). Compared with the control group, the knowledge of the research team was higher ( < 0.05); after the nursing, both group satisfaction scores were obviously high, but the study group changes more significantly ( < 0.05).
Conclusion: After PCNL treatment, the patient receives cluster therapy, improving the patient's anxiety, reducing the degree of pain, and improving the quality of life in patients, and the patient satisfaction is high. Therefore, cluster nursing is worthy of extensive application in the postoperative care of patients with PCNL.

Previous studies have demonstrated that individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) experience distinct symptom clusters and generally have a lower quality of life compared to the general population. Rumination refers to the persistent and repetitive contemplation of the causes, consequences, and intricate details of a negative and stressful event. The multiple symptom clusters of IBD cause great distress, physical and financial stress, and thus may increase the level of rumination in patients.

Background: Community integration (CI) is the ultimate goal of rehabilitation for individuals with disabilities. It plays a significant role in restoring their social functioning and facilitating their reintegration into community and family life. However, no studies have utilized bibliometric methods to explore community integration.

Introduction: Surgical site infection (SSI) represents a significant postoperative complication, resulting in extended hospital stays and substantial economic burdens. Previous research on the direct economic impact of SSIs using recursive systems modeling is limited. This study aims to quantify the direct economic losses attributable to SSIs and to dissect the various factors to these losses.

Background: Tumor-associated fibrosis modifies the tumor microenvironment (TME), hinders the infiltration and activity of cytotoxic immune cells, and is a critical pathological process leading to the ineffectiveness of tumor immunotherapy in gastric cancer (GC). However, the specific mechanisms and interventions are yet to be fully explored.
Methods: Our study included 375 gastric cancer samples from TCGA, 1 single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) dataset comprising of 15 gastric cancer samples from GEO, 19 cohorts of immunotherapy and 2 GWAS datasets.

Background: Kidney tumors, common in the urinary system, have widely varying survival rates post-surgery. Current prognostic methods rely on invasive biopsies, highlighting the need for non-invasive, accurate prediction models to assist in clinical decision-making.
Purpose: This study aimed to construct a K-means clustering algorithm enhanced by Transformer-based feature transformation to predict the overall survival rate of patients after kidney tumor resection and provide an interpretability analysis of the model to assist in clinical decision-making.
