Objective: Cirrhosis of the upper GIB is a surgical emergency, PN and CN can reduce the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding, but there is a lack of analysis on PN combined with CN in Cirrhotic patients. This work explored the effects of psychological nursing (PN) combined with comprehensive nursing (CN) on gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) and nutritional status of patients with cirrhosis.
Methods: Total 80 patients with GIB and cirrhosis who received emergency treatment in the Affiliated Hospital of Shaoxing University from October 2019 to October 2022 were randomly rolled into two groups. Patients in the control group (Ctrl group) received CN (n = 40 cases), and those in the experimental group (Exp group) received PN combined CN (n = 40 cases). The Model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score, self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), self-rating depression scale (SDS), SCL-90, complication rate, and nursing satisfaction of patients from different groups were analyzed and compared. MELD score effectively predicts short - and medium-term mortality in end-stage liver disease. SAS consisted of 20 questions related to anxiety symptoms, four-level scoring method was adopted. The SCL-90 scale included four aspects: somatic symptoms, interpersonal relationships, psychological emotions, and psychological needs.
Results: The results disclosed that after nursing intervention, SAS, SDS, and MELD scores in the Exp group were remarkably lower than those in the Ctrl group (P < .05). The scores of SCL-90 somatic symptoms, interpersonal relationships, psychological emotion, and psychological needs of participants in the Exp group were much lower than those in the Ctrl group (P < .05). The complication rate was significantly lower in the Exp (30.0%) than in the Ctrl groups (72.5%) (P < .05). The total nursing satisfaction was increased, and it is significan higher in the Exp group (97.5%) than control group (87.5% ) (P < .05).
Conclusions: In conclusion, PN combined with CN could effectively reduce the incidence of complications in patients with GIB and cirrhosis and improve nursing satisfaction. Therefore, such a method was worth promoting, which provides a reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of patients with GIB and cirrhosis.

Hematological malignancies encompass a diverse array of subtypes, contributing to substantial heterogeneity that poses challenges in predicting clinical outcomes. Leveraging the capabilities of nuclear magnetic resonance holds substantial promise in the detection of serum biomarkers and individual metabolic alterations in patients. The study involved the analysis of the sera from patients with acute myeloid leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma to investigate the impacted metabolites and their associated pathways.

Head trauma from blast exposure is a growing health concern, particularly among active military personnel, and is considered the signature injury of the Gulf War. However, it remains elusive whether fundamental differences exist between blast-related traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and TBI due to other mechanisms. Considering the importance of lipid metabolism associated with neuronal membrane integrity and its compromise during TBI, we sought to find changes in lipidomic profiling during blast or blunt (Stereotaxically Controlled Contusison-SCC)-mediated TBI.
