This paper aims to discuss the ideas and experience about the radiology residency training system of Canada with a presentation of its base accreditation standards for five aspects, competency goals for seven roles, four stages of training arrangement, and two types of final assessment questions. Although the Canada's radiology residency program differs from China's standardized resident and specialist training programs for radiology, there are still several points that are worth referencing, including emphasizing the training priority of competency goals, providing a specific basis for the stratification of training, offering clear guidance for the implementation of training content, and improving assessment methods to focus on competency goals. These points are of great value for improving the standardized radiology resident and specialist training programs in China, so as to provide a reference for the training of excellent radiologists in China.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of Yin-Yang balancing acupuncture plus Tuina(Chinese therapeutic massage)for post-stroke depression(PSD). Methods:A total of 72 PSD patients were randomized into an acupuncture-Tuina group and a Western medicine group using the random number table method,with 36 cases in each group.The Western medicine group was treated with fluoxetine hydrochloride capsules.The acupuncture-Tuina group was treated with Yin-Yang balancing acupuncture plus Tuina therapy.Both groups were treated for 4 weeks.After treatment,the clinical efficacy was compared,and the changes in Hamilton depression scale(HAMD)score,National Institute of Health stroke scale(NIHSS)score,serum neurotransmitter levels,and electroencephalogram(EEG)were observed. Results:The total effective rate of the Western medicine group and the acupuncture-Tuina group was 83.3%and 94.4%,respectively.There was a significant difference in the total effective rate between the two groups(P<0.05).After treatment,the serum levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT),norepinephrine(NE),and dopamine(DA)were higher than those in the same group before treatment,and the intra-group differences were all statistically significant(P<0.05).The serum levels of 5-HT,NE,and DA in the acupuncture-Tuina group were higher than those in the Western medicine group,and the differences between the groups were statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the scores of HAMD and NIHSS in both groups decreased,and the intra-group differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The scores in the acupuncture-Tuina group were lower than those in the Western medicine group,and the differences between the two groups were all statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the EEG diffuse wave[(delta+theta)/(alpha+beta)]ratio(DTABR)and delta/beta ratio(DBR)in both groups decreased,and the intra-group differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The ratios in the acupuncture-Tuina group were lower than those in the Western medicine group,and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion:Yin-Yang balancing acupuncture plus Tuina therapy has a better efficacy than oral fluoxetine hydrochloride capsules in the treatment of PSD,which can increase the levels of serum 5-HT,DA,and NE,and regulate brain waves.

Traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage commonly presents in traumatic brain injury patients, and it may lead to complications such as meningitis, ventriculitis, brain abscess, subdural hematoma or tension pneumocephalus. When misdiagnosed or inappropriately treated, traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage may result in severe complications and may be life-threatening. Some traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage has concealed manifestations and is prone to misdiagnosis. Due to different sites and mechanisms of trauma and degree of cerebrospinal fluid leak, treatments for traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage varies greatly. Hence, the Craniocerebral Trauma Professional Group of Neurosurgery Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the Neurological Injury Professional Group of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized relevant experts to formulate the " Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage in adults ( version 2023)" based on existing clinical evidence and experience. The consensus consisted of 16 recommendations, covering the leakage diagnosis, localization, treatments, and intracranial infection prevention, so as to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage and improve the overall prognosis of the patients.

In recent years, the artificial intelligence machine learning and deep learning technology have made leap progress. Using clinical decision support system for auxiliary diagnosis and treatment is the inevitable developing trend of wisdom medical. Clinicians tend to ignore the interpretability of models while pursuing its high accuracy, which leads to the lack of trust of users and hamper the application of clinical decision support system. From the perspective of explainable artificial intelligence, the authors make some preliminary exploration on the construction of clinical decision support system in the field of liver disease. While pursuing high accuracy of the model, the data governance techniques, intrinsic interpretability models, post-hoc visualization of complex models, design of human-computer interactions, providing knowledge map based on clinical guidelines and data sources are used to endow the system with interpretability.

Objective:To study the short-term clinical outcomes of different courses of antenatal corticosteroids (ACS) for preterm twins.Methods:From January 2017 to December 2021, preterm twins with gestational age (GA) 24-34 weeks admitted to the neonatal ward of our hospital and received ACS were retrospectively studied. The infants were assigned into single-course group, partial-course group and multiple-course group according to ACS courses. The short-term clinical outcomes were compared among the groups. SPSS software version 25.0 was used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 286 infants were enrolled in this study, including 128 in single-course group, 89 in partial-course group and 69 in multiple-course group. Compared with single-course group, the risks of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in both partial-course group ( OR=2.332, 95% CI 1.028-5.293, P=0.043) and multiple-course group ( OR=3.872, 95% CI 1.104-13.584, P=0.034) were higher. The birth length in multiple-course group ( β=-0.016, 95% CI -0.029 - -0.002, P=0.024) was lower than single-course group. Conclusions:The risks of neonatal RDS in preterm twins are higher in partial-course and multiple-course of ACS. A full course of ACS should be used to prevent neonatal RDS until further evidence of effectiveness is available.
