Objective:To investigate the current status and challenges of pediatric life support training in China and provide references for improving training quality.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted to collect data from pediatric life support training centers across the country，covering basic institutional information，training capacity and training faculty，training program funding，as well as existing challenges and issues.The domestic registry of training centers in 2023 was obtained through the American Heart Association's online platform.After contacting and verifying each center，an online questionnaire was distributed，and the aggregated data were statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 42 institutions participated in the survey，including 19 children's hospitals，14 general hospitals，6 maternal and child health hospitals，2 women and children’s hospitals，and 1 training institution.The distribution of training centers showed a concentration in coastal areas，with the top three provinces/municipalities being Guangdong（7/42，16.7%），Zhejiang（6/42，14.3%），and Shanghai（4/42，9.5%）.As of December 31 2023，the 42 institutions had an annual basic life support（BLS）training volume of 8 587 individuals，the median was 120 (100,200)，and an annual pediatric advanced life support（PALS）training volume of 2 448 individuals，the median was 30 (20,50).Among the 42 institutions，there were 598 BLS instructors and 306 PALS instructors.Among the surveyed institutions，24（24/42，57.1%）reported BLS instructor teams comprising fewer than 10 members，and 33（33/42，78.6%）reported PALS instructor teams comprising fewer than 10.Only 7 centers(7/42,16.7%）reported having dedicated funding support.The top three challenges were：training sessions occupying instructors’personal time（27/42，64.3%），low instructor compensation（16/42，38.1%），and issues with the data submission system（16/42，38.1%）.Conclusion:Pediatric life support training centers in China are primarily children’s hospitals，with a geographical concentration in coastal areas，which is also reflected in the distribution of training scale and instructor resources.Most centers have relatively small training scales and limited instructor capacity，with many instructors conducting training during their personal time.These issues may hinder the implementation and effectiveness of training programs.

Objective To explore the application value of MRI diaphragmatic navigation technology combined with three dimensional liver acquisition with volume acceleration-flexible(3D LAVA-FLEX)sequence in abdominal enhanced imaging of infants and young children.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on imaging data of 84 infants and young children who underwent abdominal enhanced MRI examination in our hospital between January 2021 and December 2023.All 84 infants and young children initially underwent conventional dynamic contrast-enhanced 3D LAVA-FLEX sequence scanning;the delayed phase images obtained were included in the dynamic enhancement group.Subsequently,diaphragmatic navigation combined with 3D LAVA-FLEX sequence examination was implemented,and the obtained images were included in the diaphragm navigation group.Subjective scoring was performed for images in both groups,while the signal to noise ratio(SNR),contrast to noise ratio(CNR),and artifact quantification(AQ)were measured and compared between the two groups.Results The respiratory motion artifacts,the clarity of liver parenchyma enhancement,the clarity of liver vascular enhancement,the clarity of spleen parenchyma enhancement and the overall image quality score in the diaphragm navigation group were higher than those in the dynamic enhancement group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in SNR and AQ between the two groups of images(P<0.000 1),while there was no statistically significant difference in CNR between the two groups of images(P>0.05).Conclusion Diaphragmatic navigation technology combined with 3D LAVA-FLEX sequence imaging can improve the image quality of abdominal MRI enhanced imaging in infants and young children,and provide a reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To investigate the association of interpectoral lymph nodes (IPNs) with clinicopathological characteristics in breast cancer and to evaluate their prognostic significance.Method:Data from 117 primary breast cancer specimens with complete clinical and follow-up information who underwent IPNs clearance from Feb. 2016 to Jun. 2024 in Shanghai Second People’s Hospital were collected, including patient age, tumor location, pathological type, histological grade, TNM stage, lymphovascular invasion (LVI) , molecular typing, Ki67, detection rate of IPNs, metastasis rate of IPNs, and patient follow-up information. SPSS18.0 was used to analyze the risk factors and impact on prognosis of IPNs metastasis. In addition, the data of 117 patients with primary breast cancer who did not undergo IPNs in the same period were collected and compared with those who underwent IPNs.Results:In 117 primary breast cancer specimens, the detection rate of IPNs was 28.2% (33/117) , and the metastasis rate was 4.3% (5/117) . There was no statistical difference in patient age ( χ2=0.59, P=1.000) , tumor location ( χ2=2.13, P=0.813) , pathological type ( χ2=1.86, P=0.500) , histological grade ( χ2=0.47, P=0.643) , T stage ( χ2=4.18, P=0.247) , N stage ( χ2=4.89, P=0.127) , TNM stage ( χ2=2.23, P=0.336) , LVI ( χ2=1.05, P=0.360) , molecular typing ( χ2=1.17, P=0.901) , or Ki67 ( χ2=0.01, P=1.000) between IPNs metastasis group and no IPNs metastasis group. However, the data showed that patients with advanced TNM stage and axillary lymph node metastasis were more likely to develop IPNs metastasis. During a median follow-up period of 29 months, IPNs metastasis had no significant effect on the invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) or overall survival (OS) of patients. Meanwhile, there was no significant difference in iDFs or OS between the IPNs non cleaning group and the IPNs cleaning group. Conclusions:The metastasis rate of IPNs in breast cancer patients is not high, mainly occurring in patients with advanced TNM staging and axillary lymph node metastasis. The metastasis of IPNs has no significant impact on the short-term recurrence survival of patients. Moreover, whether IPNs cleaning or not has no significant impact on the recurrence or survival of for the general patients with breast cancer. However, its value in predicting prognosis needs to be verified through larger samples and longer follow-up periods.

Objective:To analyze the effect of joint management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) between specialty and community under the model of National Diabetes Prevention and Control Center (DPCC).Methods:A total of 2 527 T2DM patients managed by DPCC Pingshan Center of Shenzhen from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024 were retrospectively included. After management, the rate of downturn, reexamination rate, blood pressure compliance rate, metabolic indicators (waist circumference, body mass index, fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, blood lipids) and screening rate of chronic complications of diabetes (atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, microvascular disease, diabetic peripheral neuropathy) were analyzed. Those included 2022 ( n=564), 2023 ( n=1 477), and 2024 ( n=2 527). Results:The downturn rate in 2022, 2023 and 2024 increased year by year (22.8% vs 67.2% vs 89.9%, P<0.01), and the review rate (41.1% vs 62.2% vs 52.7%, P<0.01), complication screening rate (51.6% vs 85.3% vs 62.2%, P<0.01), blood pressure compliance rate (53.1% vs 78.0% vs 67.2%, P<0.01), body mass index compliance rate (13.2% vs 17.3% vs 28.6%, P<0.01), fasting blood glucose meeting rate (46.4% vs 60.2% vs 68.5%, P<0.01), glycated hemoglobin meeting rate (58.4% vs 63.2% vs 45.6%, P<0.01) were relatively improved. Waist circumference compliance rate (30.6% vs 27.7% vs 21.6%) and blood lipid compliance rate (33.6% vs 35.5% vs 31.9%) were not significantly improved, and the review rate, blood pressure compliance rate and complication screening rate in 2024 were lower than those in 2023 and higher than those in 2022. Conclusions:The combined management of type 2 diabetes under the DPCC model has significant effects on improving the down-conversion rate, rediagnosis rate, blood pressure compliance rate, metabolic index compliance rate and the screening rate of diabetes-related chronic complications in patients with diabetes. At the same time, it was also found that with the progress of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment, the review rate, complication screening rate, blood pressure, waist circumference, blood lipid and glycosylated hemoglobin reached the standard of patients decreased compared with the previous situation, which needs to be further analyzed and improved.

Objective:To develop and validate a prediction model for medication adherence among patients receiving allergen sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT).Methods:A prospective cross-sectional study was conducted, and a total of 288 patients who received SLIT treatment at an allergy center in the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University (Jiangsu Province Hospital) from December 2023 to July 2024 were assigned to the modeling group. Additionally, 122 patients from August to October 2024 were assigned to the validation group. Data of patients′ general information, medication beliefs, anxiety levels, social support, disease perception, and medication adherence were collected. Single-factor analysis and LASSO regression were utilized to identify potential predictors, and a prediction model for medication adherence was constructed using multifactorial logistic regression. A nomogram was then developed based on the model. The model′s discriminatory ability was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), the area under curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity. The model was then validated in the validation cohort.Results:Single-factor analysis and LASSO regression identified a total of nine predictive factors. Logistic regression revealed that medical belief tendency [ OR (95% CI) =2.420 (1.116-5.248), P=0.025], the somatic control dimension in self-rating anxiety scales [ OR (95% CI)=1.404 (1.241-1.589), P<0.001], the subjective support dimension in social support assessment [ OR (95% CI)=0.784 (0.725-0.847), P<0.001], and the cognitive dimension in illness perception [ OR (95% CI)=0.725 (0.647-0.813), P<0.001] were independent predictors of medication adherence in patients undergoing SLIT. The AUC value of the model was 0.899 (95% CI=0.863-0.934) in the modeling group and 0.882 (95% CI=0.820-0.944) in the validation group, indicating good discriminatory ability. The optimal cutoff value of the model was 0.493, with a sensitivity of 81.1% and specificity of 85.7% in the modeling group, and a sensitivity of 87.3% and specificity of 82.5% in the validation group. Conclusion:The medication adherence prediction model developed in this study for patients undergoing SLIT exhibits good predictive performance and provides valuable guidance for early intervention by clinical healthcare professionals.
