ObjectiveCardiovascular diseases pose a major public health challenge in China. The burden of cardiovascular disease associated with high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C） has increased steadily nationwide. A comprehensive analysis of secular trends in cardiovascular disease burden and its determinants is crucial for developing targeted interventions and evidence-based health policies. MethodsBased on data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021， we analyzed the trends in deaths， disability-adjusted life years （DALYs）， age-standardized mortality rates （ASMR）， and age-standardized DALY rates （ASDR） of cardiovascular diseases attributable to high LDL-C in China from 1990 to 2021 using Joinpoint regression analysis. An age-period-cohort model was applied to assess the contributions of age， period， and cohort effects to changes in the cardiovascular disease burden attributable to high LDL-C. Projections of the high LDL-C-attributable cardiovascular disease burden in China from 2022 to 2030 were generated using a Bayesian age-period-cohort model. ResultsBetween 1990 and 2021， China saw a substantial rise in both deaths and disability-adjusted life years （DALYs） from cardiovascular disease linked to high LDL-C. Joinpoint regression revealed key turning points in this trend： an overall increase continued until 2004， after which the burden began to fall starting in 2011. Throughout this period， age-standardized mortality and DALY rates were consistently higher in males than in females. Age-period-cohort analysis further indicated that mortality and DALY rates due to high LDL-C increased almost exponentially with age， while period and cohort risks generally decreased over time. Projections suggest a continued decline in age-standardized mortality rates from LDL-C-related cardiovascular disease for both Chinese men and women by 2030. ConclusionRapid population growth and accelerated ageing in China emerge as primary drivers of the escalating cardiovascular diseases burden linked to elevated LDL-C. The burden of cardiovascular diseases is higher in men compared to women. By 2030， the burden of cardiovascular disease caused by high LDL-C in China will remain severe. These findings underscore the critical need for gender-specific screening protocols， age-tailored interventions， and personalized management frameworks to mitigate this public health challenge.

Objective To investigate the value of iterative decomposition of water and fat with echo asymmetry and least-squares(IDEAL-IQ)sequence in evaluating the correlation between renal ectopic fat deposition and early diabetic kidney disease(DKD)in patients with diabetes mellitus(DM).Methods A total of 51 patients with T1DM or T2DM were enrolled in this study from the Endocrinology and Metabolism Department in Affiliated Jinhua Hospital,Zhejiang University School of Medicine during January 2022 to July 2023.All the patients were divided into two groups according to the results of urine albumin creatinine ratio(UACR):normal or slightly increased urinary micro albumin group(NAU,UACR<30 mg/g,n=27)and diabetic kidney disease group(DKD,UACR 30～300 mg/g,n=24).Meanwhile,55 healthy subjects in health examination were selected as control group(NC).Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between renal FF and other indicators.Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of early DKD,and the diagnostic efficiency of renal FF for early DKD was analyzed by the ROC curve.Results Serum creatinine(Scr)and renal fat fraction(FF)value were higher in DKD group than in NC and NAU groups(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that kidney FF were positively correlated with UACR and Hcy(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors,renal FF was a contributing factor to early DKD.The ROC curve revealed that model 2 had the highest diagnostic efficiency,with AUC=0.801,sensitivity of 66.7%,specificity of 85.2%,accuracy of 80.0%,and a renal FF cut-off value was 2.46%.Conclusion IDEAL-IQ could non-invasively measure the renal fat content in DM patients,and the renal FF were significantly associated with DKD in early stage.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Aortic regurgitation (AR) is a common complication after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation, leading to poor clinical prognosis. Echocardiography is the main method for evaluating the function of the aortic valve (AV). This article focuses on summarizing the indicators and parameters of echocardiography used in the quantitative evaluation of AR before and after LVAD, combined with the current AR management methods. Based on the existing clinical evidence, the prevention and treatment strategies of AR in the whole-process management of LAVD were summarized.

Objective:To investigate epidemiological characteristics of arsenic poisoning-related skin lesions in an arsenic tailing area in Hunan Province.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted. From October 2016 to January 2017, all residents aged over 18 years (except pregnant women) were enrolled from 3 villages in Baiyun Town, Shimen County, Hunan Province by using a cluster-sampling method. Demographic information was collected through a face-to-face questionnaire interview. All residents received skin examination performed by professional dermatologists, and blood, urine, and hair samples were collected for the measurement of arsenic levels. Non-conditional logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze factors associated with arsenic poisoning-related skin lesions.Results:A total of 1 092 eligible residents in the arsenic tailing area were recruited in this study, and 756 (69.2%, 95% CI: 66.5%, 72.0%) presented with arsenic poisoning-related skin lesions, including hyperkeratosis, hypo- or hyper-pigmentation. The median ( Q1, Q3) arsenic levels were 0.31 (0.14, 0.74) μg/g in hair samples ( n = 1 079), 0.84 (0.67, 1.10) μg/L in blood samples ( n =1 091), and 60.31 (41.71, 91.52) μg/L in urine samples ( n =1 092). Multivariable analysis showed that the occurrence of arsenic poisoning-related skin lesions was associated with age, residential location, and occupational arsenic exposure history, but was not associated with gender, ethnicity, education levels, migration history, arsenic levels in hair, blood, or urine. Compared with the group aged 18 - 39 years, the group aged 40 - 59 years and the group aged over 60 years showed significantly higher risks of arsenic poisoning-related skin lesions (adjusted OR = 11.34, 95% CI: 5.98, 21.50, P < 0.001; adjusted OR = 71.82, 95% CI: 35.81, 144.05, P < 0.001, respectively). Compared with the residents in the Wangyangqiao village, residents in the Heshan village and Huangchang village showed significantly higher risks of arsenic poisoning-related skin lesions (adjusted OR = 2.89, 95% CI: 2.05, 4.08, P < 0.001; adjusted OR = 4.13, 95% CI: 1.94, 8.78, P < 0.001, respectively). The risk of arsenic poisoning-related skin lesions was significantly higher in residents with occupational exposure history than in those without (adjusted OR = 1.99, 95% CI: 1.04, 3.83, P = 0.039) . Conclusion:Nearly 70% of the residents presented with arsenic poisoning-related skin lesions in an arsenic tailing area in Hunan Province, and the duration and previous degree of arsenic exposure were associated with the risk of arsenic poisoning-related skin lesions.

Objective·To assess the effect of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(VA-ECMO)treatment on the mortality rate of patients suffering from cardiogenic shock and cardiac arrest in hospital.Methods·A total of 19 patients with cardiogenic shock or cardiac arrest who were treated with VA-ECMO treatment in Suzhou Kowloon Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from September 2017 to March 2022 were included in the retrospective study.Patients were divided into extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation(ECPR)group(n=9)and VA-ECMO for cardiogenic shock(E-CS)group(n=10)according to whether cardiac arrest had occurred.The general demographic data,clinical data,Sequential Organ Failure Assessment(SOFA)scores,postoperative complications and prognostic indicators of the two groups of patients were collected.Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were used to evaluate the correlation between each covariate and hospital mortality.Results·Among the included patients,there were 15 males(78.9％),with an average age of 46.5(34.5,61.6)years.The incidence of postoperative complications was as follows:bleeding(47.4％),AKI(36.8％),infection(31.6％),limb ischemia(15.8％)and cerebrovascular accident(5.3％).The duration of VA-ECMO was 4.0(2.0,6.8)days,and the intensive care duration was 11.5(5.8,26.2)days;the ECMO withdrawal success rate was 63.2％,and the hospital mortality was 63.2％.The results of univariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis showed that AKI(prior to VA-ECMO initiation),postoperative complications of infection and limb ischemia were correlated with the hospital mortality of patients(all P＜0.05).The results of multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis showed that AKI(prior to VA-ECMO initiation),postoperative complications of infection and limb ischemia were also independent risk factors for the hospital mortality of patients(all P＜0.05).Conclusion·For patients with cardiogenic shock and cardiac arrest treated with VA-ECMO,AKI(prior to VA-ECMO initiation),postoperative infection and limb ischemia are independently associated with higher hospital mortality.

Objective:To investigate the imaging characteristics of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of undifferentiated carcinoma with pancreatic osteoclast-like giant cell (UPC-OGC).Methods:From April 2015 to November 2019, at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, 11 pathologically confirmed UPC-OGC patients who received upper abdominal CT or MRI before surgery and with complete clinical and pathological data were retrospectively included. The imaging characteristics of CT and MRI were analyzed, which included lesion location, number, shape, size, boundary, plain scan and enhancement features, adjacent tissue invasion and metastasis. Independent sample t test was used for statistical analysis. Results:The tumor lesions of 11 patients with UPC-OGC were all single, and the maximum diameter of lesion was (4.84±2.96) cm (ranged from 2.00 to 12.80 cm). The lesions of 7 patients with UPC-OGC were located in the head of pancreas, 2 located in the body of pancreas, 1 located in the tail of pancreas and 1 located in the junction of body and tail of pancreas. The lesion shapes of 3 patients with UPC-OGC were round, and the lesion shapes of 8 patients were oval with lobulation. The lesion boundaries of 8 patients with UPC-OGC were clear and the lesion boundaries of 3 patients were unclear. Seven patients with UPC-OGC were examined by plain and enhanced CT scan. Plain CT scan showed that the density of solid area of the tumor was similar to that of normal pancreatic parenchyma ((37.14±6.10) HU vs. (43.14±4.55) HU), and the difference was not significant ( t=-2.85, P=0.097). Contrast-enhanced CT scan in arterial phase showed that the degree of enhancement in solid area of the tumor was weaker than that of normal pancreatic parenchyma ((67.29±12.79) HU vs. (90.43±9.81) HU), and the difference was statistical significant ( t=-4.10, P=0.004), while contrast-enhanced CT scan showed that in venous phase the solid area of the tumor continued to strengthen and the degree of enhancement was similar to that of normal pancreatic parenchyma ((84.71±15.30) HU vs. (79.57±10.73) HU), and the difference was not significant ( t=0.38, P=0.535). Both CT and MRI enhanced scans showed uneven enhancement of the lesions, the degree of enhancement of solid component in arterial phase was slightly weaker than that of normal pancreatic parenchyma and the marginal and internal separation were progressively enhanced, and the degree of enhancement in the venous phase and balanced phase was slightly higher than that of the normal pancreatic parenchyma or similar to that of the normal pancreas. Conclusions:The imaging of CT and MRI of UPC-OGC have certain characteristics, which are helpful for the diagnosis and identification of the disease.

Objective:To summarize the experience of 15 cases of balloon endovascular occlusion assisted aortic replacement.Methods:15 patients who needed reoperation after aortic surgery underwent endovascular balloon occlusion assisted aortic replacement by DSA guidance in the hybrid OR. Main inclusion criteria: The target vessel to be blocked cannot be directly blocked. Based on the last CTA before the operation, the diameter of the target vessel was measured, and the appropriate diameter balloon and the appropriate diameter balloon and the amount of contrast agent were selected. The vascular approach was selected according to the CTA.During the operation, the balloon was filled and fixed well, the distal invasive blood pressure waveform showed advection, and the pressure close to hydrostatic pressure as the complete blocking standard.Results:All 15 cases of balloon endovascular occlusion assisted aortic surgery were successful. After the operation, 14 target vessels normally without damage, and there was no vascular complication. One case after surgical three-branch stent surgery underwent the second thoracoabdominal aortic replacement operation. After the stent was blocked by the balloon, the new tissue in the stent fell off, and the celiac trunk and superior mesenteric artery were embolized for reoperation.Conclusion:Balloon endovascular occlusion technology expands the indications of aortic surgery and simplifies the operation, that is a safe and effective occlusion method. Whether the target vessel is suitable for balloon occlusion should be judged before the operation to avoid related complications.
