Latest ArticlesObjective To explore the influence of music intervention guided by soundscape theory on procedural pain⁃related behaviors and electroencephalogram characteristics in neonates. Methods A total of 96 term neonates undergoing radial artery blood sampling in the neonatal intensive care unit of a tertiary grade A general hospital in Guangzhou city from April to December 2024 were selected as the research subjects.They were randomly divided into control group and intervention group by the envelope method,with 48 cases each.Based on the soundscape theory,the intervention group received 50 dB of soothing music starting 5 minutes before radial artery puncture until 10 minutes after needle withdrawal, while the control group received 0 dB of soothing music over the same period.The Behavioral Indicators of Infant Pain score,heart rate,and blood oxygen saturation,and electroencephalogram(EEG) before,during,and after arterial puncture were compared between the two groups. Results Compared to the control group,the intervention group showed significantly lower pain scores at 90 and 120 s after puncture(P<0.05),higher oxygen saturation at 120 s after puncture(P<0.05),and a smaller difference in EEG amplitude changes before and after puncture(P<0.05). Conclusions Music intervention guided by soundscape theory could relieve pain,improve blood oxygen saturation fluctuations,and decrease the amplitude of EEG physiological changes in neonates.
Objective To understand the postoperative health distress of liver transplant patients,and to establish the core domains of the liver transplantation⁃specific patient⁃reported outcome measurement system. Methods From June 2023 to June 2024,a research group was set up.A first draft of core domains was initially formed through literature analysis,patient interviews,and content analysis of medical records.Through Delphi expert consultation,the suitability of each field was evaluated and revised from the importance of each field and the degree of suitability for patient self⁃report two aspects,to form patient⁃reported outcomes measurement system⁃liver transplantation core domains. Results A total of 19 experts were consulted.100% of questionnaires were returned in the three rounds of correspondence.The authority coefficients of the experts were 0.91.The Kendall's harmony coefficients in each round were 0.423,0.192,and 0.205 respectively.The coefficients of variation for each evaluation concept were 0.08⁃0.42,0.13⁃0.39,and 0.05⁃0.20.After three rounds of consultation,the core domains of self⁃reported outcome measurement for liver transplant patients were finally clarified,including physiological health,psychological health,social health and overall health four dimensions,covering 22 measurement concepts. Conclusions The core domains of self⁃reported outcome measurement for liver transplant patients established are scientific and reasonable,which could help promote the establishment of a liver transplant specific patient⁃reported outcome measurement system.

Objective To explore grip strength change trajectory of community⁃dwelling elderly people and its relationship with cognitive function. Methods Based on the grip strength and cognitive function data of community⁃dwelling elderly people from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study(CHARLS) in 2011,2013,and 2015,group⁃based trajectory model(GBTM) was used to establish the grip strength change trajectory of community-dwelling elderly people.Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the relationship between grip strength trajectory and cognitive function. Results A total of 1 245 community⁃dwelling elderly people were included.GBTM analysis results showed that there were four grip strength trajectories among community⁃dwelling elderly people:extremely low level group,low level group,medium level group,and high level group.Multiple linear regression analysis results showed that after adjusting for confounding factors,compared to the extremely low level group,the grip strength of elderly people in the low level group,medium level group,and high level group were positively correlated with their cognitive function;The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for predicting cognitive function using grip strength trajectory was 0.622(95%CI 0.587⁃0.657). Conclusions The grip strength trajectory of community-dwelling elderly people could be divided into four categories:extremely low level group,low level group,medium level group,and high level group,which have certain predictive value for the cognitive function of community⁃dwelling elderly people.Low grip strength in the elderly is a risk factor for cognitive decline.Therefore,early identification of the development trajectory of grip strength in the elderly is particularly important.
