The purpose of this paper is to develop a method to automatic classify capsule gastroscope image into three categories to prevent high-risk factors for carcinogenesis, such as atrophic gastritis (AG). The purpose of this research work is to develop a deep learning framework based on transfer learning to classify capsule gastroscope image into three categories: normal gastroscopic image, chronic erosive gastritis images, and ulcer gastric image.
BACKGROUND Causes of death (CODs) in patients with gastric cancer (GC) need to be studied. We examined the cancer-specific and non-cancer deaths among patients diagnosed with GC from 1975 to 2019. MATERIAL AND METHODS We obtained medical records from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. We used SEER*Stat software to calculate standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) for specific CODs and performed a competing risk analysis to evaluate the cumulative mortality of specific CODs. RESULTS The final study cohort included 42 813 patients with GC, with a mean age at diagnosis of 67.7 years. As the end of 2021, a total of 36 924 (86.2%) patients died. Of these deaths, 24 625 (66.7%) were from GC, 6513 (17.6%) were from other types of cancers, and 5786 (15.7%) were from non-cancer causes. The most prevalent non-cancer CODs were heart diseases (2104; 5.7%), cerebrovascular diseases (501; 1.4%), and pneumonia/influenza (335; 0.9%). Among patients who survived over 5 years, non-cancer causes surpassed GC as the main CODs. Patients with GC had a higher risk of dying from many non-cancer causes than expected in the general population, particularly from suicide (SMR, 3.03; 95% CI, 2.35-3.85) and septicemia (SMR, 2.93; 95% CI, 2.51-3.4). The competing risk analysis showed that the cumulative mortality of GC gradually declined with a more recent diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS Although GC was the leading COD among patients with GC, non-cancer CODs accounted for a substantial number of deaths. These findings provide useful guidance on potential death risks among patients with GC.
Objective
To analyze the present situation of the preoperative visit for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) patients at home and abroad,and provide the reference for the preoperative visit of percutaneous coronary intervention in China.
Methods
We searched PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,CNKI,WanFangData,VIP,and CBM database by the computer.Then the articles for up to December 2017 which in accordance with inclusion criteria were analyzed by descriptive analysis.
Results
A total of 25 papers were included from 1983 to 2016, which had involved 8 articles in English and 17 in Chinese.The study of abroad began in 1983,and in China the first was in 2004.From 2008, the number of literatures were uptrend.The contents of the study were mainly about demand survey,current situation analysis,technology and effect evaluation,which the largest number of PCI visit was the aspect of effect evaluation,accounting for 68% (17/25) of the total literature.
Conclusion
There is a high requirement for PCI information before the operation, but there is lack of unified standard content and process for PCI visits both at home and abroad.It is important measures to strengthen the training of specialized nurses for cardiovascular intervention and formulate standardization content and procedure of preoperative visit in order to development and further improvement of preoperative visit.

Abstract Assistance for distressed caregivers can indirectly facilitate recovery of the people being cared for, yet how resilience, hope, and social support mediate between caregiving burden and adjustment outcomes is unclear. A structural equation model was constructed based on data from a cross‐sectional survey of 324 caregivers of children and adolescents with schizophrenia using multidimensional caregiver burden inventory, Connor‐Davidson resilience scale, Herth hope index, perceived social support scale, distress management screening measure, and positive aspects of caregiving instruments. On distress, caregiving burden had a relatively large direct effect, and an indirect effect, mainly mediated by resilience. Resilience had a greater effect than social support or hope on distress. On positive aspects of caregiving (PAC), caregiving burden had only an indirect effect, primarily via the processes from social support and resilience to hope. Hope had a significant direct effect, while resilience and support had moderate indirect effects on PAC via hope. Resilience is an important mediator between caregiving burden and distress, with a greatest effect. Resilience, hope, and social support all mediated between caregiving burden and PAC, with hope having a greatest effect. Reducing the care burden may greatly help to relieve caregiver distress. Providing needed social support, encouraging caregivers to proactively utilize the support, and enhancing resilient coping skills will be helpful in developing resilience and mitigating distress. Health professionals should assess and ameliorate burden, be particularly aware of caregiver hopes, provide formal support, and encourage informal support to promote PAC.
Objective
To explore the inner relationship between the humanistic care of nursing and the four elements of benevolence, rites, confidence, harmony, and construct a theoretical model of nursing humanistic care based on Confucian thought.
Methods
Using semi-structured focus interview with 13 experts, the data was sorted, analyzed, encoded and refined, seeking to enrich the modern humanistic nursing care ideas and factors from the Confucian ideology by using grounded theory research method, make the theory research and clinical practice of nursing humanities phenomenon was closely related to the construction of nursing the theory of humanistic care model based on Confucianism.
Results
Obtained the cognition, feelings and ideas of the experts in nursing, humanistic care and Confucianism, and extracted four classification subjects: benevolence ritesconfidenceharmony as the spiritual core, carrier, code of conduct, value orientation of nursing humanistic care, and constructing a theoretical model of nursing humanistic care based on Confucianism.
Conclusions
The construction of nursing humanistic care theory model based on Confucianism enriches the connotation of nursing humanistic care, and provides references for the further study of nursing humanistic care theory, and instructs clinical nursing practice by nursing humanistic care theory based on Confucianism.
