Article Abstract
Background: With the rapid development of information technology, hospital information systems (HISs) have been deeply applied in the medical field and have shown broad application prospects. There are still some noninteroperable clinical information systems that pose an obstacle to the effective coordination of care, such as cancer pain management.
Aim: To construct a chain management information system for cancer pain and explore its clinical application effect.
Methods: A quasiexperimental study was conducted in the inpatient department of Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine. A total of 259 patients were nonrandomly divided into two groups: the experimental group (after the system was applied, n = 123) and the control group (before the system was applied, n = 136). The cancer pain management evaluation form score, patient satisfaction with pain control, pain score at admission and discharge, and the worst pain score during hospitalization were compared between the two groups.
Results: Compared with the control group, the score of the cancer pain management evaluation form was significantly higher (p < .05). There were no statistically significant differences in worst pain intensity, pain score at admission and discharge, and patients' satisfaction with pain control between the two groups.
Conclusions: The cancer pain chain management information system can enable nurses to evaluate and record pain in a more standardized way, but it has no significant effect on the pain intensity of cancer patients.

Adrenal cysts are rare lesions that are increasingly discovered incidentally during radiological examinations conducted without suspicion of adrenal disease. Typically benign, hormonally nonfunctional, and asymptomatic, these lesions may occasionally manifest mass effect symptoms such as pain or abdominal discomfort, particularly in large cysts. Management approaches vary from no follow-up to hormonal investigation, imaging follow-up, or adrenalectomy, especially if the cyst is growing or exhibits an atypical appearance.

Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonists, used in advanced prostate cancer, can cause an initial testosterone surge and may inadequately suppress follicle-stimulating hormone, potentially promoting tumor growth. Injectable gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists avoid this surge but have drawbacks like injection-site reactions and monthly dosing. Relugolix, an oral GnRH antagonist, offers rapid testosterone suppression without flare and reduced cardiovascular risks.

Background: Intrauterine devices (IUDs) are safe and effective long-acting reversible contraceptive therapies that are also used as minimally invasive treatment for heavy menstrual bleeding, endometrial hyperplasia, and early-stage endometrial cancer. Despite many advantages, IUDs are underused predominantly due to patient discomfort. Although many techniques have been explored previously in the literature, there is currently little consensus on effective analgesic strategies.

Juvenile fibroadenoma typically is seen in the adolescent patient and has distinctive clinical and histopathological features that are related to the early onset of the benign tumor. Only rarely can juvenile fibroadenoma occur as a prepubertal lesion or may be detected earlier in childhood, raising questions about differential diagnosis and management of the lesion. We present a case of very early first manifestation of juvenile fibroadenoma in a 2-year-old patient.

The spinal cord is an organ capable of sending and receiving a lot of biological and electrical information. It is not just a sending and receiving channel, but a living structure capable of autonomously processing the afferent and efferent notifications with which it comes into contact. The osteopathic neurological model includes the concept of facilitation of the spinal segment, that is, a reflex arc that is established in a spinal segment between two visceral and/or somatic structures, creating a loop of chronicity.
