The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI), especially generative AI (GenAI), has already brought, and will continue to bring, revolutionary changes to our daily production and life, as well as create new opportunities and challenges for diagnostic and therapeutic practices in the medical field. Haihe Hospital of Tianjin University collaborates with the National Supercomputer Center in Tianjin, Tianjin University, and other institutions to carry out research in areas such as smart healthcare, smart services, and smart management. We have conducted research and development of a full-process disease diagnosis and treatment assistance system based on GenAI in the field of smart healthcare. The development of this project is of great significance. The first goal is to upgrade and transform the hospital's information center, organically integrate it with existing information systems, and provide the necessary computing power storage support for intelligent services within the hospital. We have implemented the localized deployment of three models: Tianhe "Tianyuan", WiNGPT, and DeepSeek. The second is to create a digital avatar of the chief physician/chief physician's voice and image by integrating multimodal intelligent interaction technology. With generative intelligence as the core, this solution provides patients with a visual medical interaction solution. The third is to achieve deep adaptation between generative intelligence and the entire process of patient medical treatment. In this project, we have developed assistant tools such as intelligent inquiry, intelligent diagnosis and recognition, intelligent treatment plan generation, and intelligent assisted medical record generation to improve the safety, quality, and efficiency of the diagnosis and treatment process. This study introduces the content of a full-process disease diagnosis and treatment assistance system, aiming to provide references and insights for the digital transformation of the healthcare industry.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a chronic disease but causes the highest mortality and morbidity among the cardiovascular diseases worldwide. Correlations between CAD and gut microbiota have been observed. This suggests that the gut microbiota could become a vital diagnostic marker of CAD, and restoring the gut habitat may become a promising strategy for CAD therapy. The elevated level of trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), a gut microbiota-derived metabolite, was found to be associated with the increased risk of cardiovascular disease and the all-cause mortality. Preclinical studies have shown that it has pro-arteriosclerosis properties. It is likely that regulating the production of TMAO by gut microbiota may become a promising strategy for anti-atherosclerosis therapy. This review summarizes the clinical and preclinical researches on the intervention of CAD by regulating the gut microbiota and the microbiota-derived metabolite TMAO, with the aim to provide new target for the therapy of CAD.

Objective:To compare the effects of freshwater and seawater drowning on sheep's pulmonary circulation hemodynamics and respiratory mechanics.Methods:According to the random number table method, healthy crossbred sheep were divided into freshwater drowning group ( n = 12) and seawater drowning group ( n = 12). 30 mL/kg of freshwater or seawater was infused respectively through trachea for approximately 5 minutes. Before the drowning, immediately after drowning, and 30, 60, 120 minutes after drowning, the systemic circulation hemodynamic parameters [heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), cardiac output (CO)] were monitored by pulse indicator continuous cardiac output (PiCCO); the respiratory parameters were obtained through the ventilator, including tidal volume (VT), lung compliance (Cdyn), oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2), peak airway pressure (Ppeak)]; PiCCO and the right heart floating catheter (Swan-Ganz catheter) was used to measure pulmonary hemodynamic parameters [pulmonary systolic pressure (PAS), pulmonary diastolic pressure (PAD), pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP), and extravascular lung water (EVLW)]. The animals were sacrificed at the end of the experiment, and the amount of residual water in the respiratory tract was measured; the pathological changes in the lung tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. Results:① Systemic circulation hemodynamics: compared with the values before drowning, HR, MAP, and CO at the time of immediately after drowning in both freshwater and seawater were significantly increased and peaked. In addition, all indicators in the freshwater drowning group were significantly higher than those in the seawater drowning group [HR (bpm): 170.75±1.87 vs. 168.67±2.27, MAP (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 172.92±1.62 vs. 159.42±3.18, CO (L/min): 13.27±0.71 vs. 10.33±0.73, all P < 0.05].② Respiratory parameters: compared with values before drowning, PaO 2/FiO 2, VT, and Cdyn decreased immediately in both freshwater and seawater drowning groups, Ppeak was significantly increased; in addition, the values in the seawater drowning group were decreased or increased more significantly than freshwater drowning group [PaO 2/FiO 2 (mmHg): 37.83±1.99 vs. 60.42±5.23, VT (mL): 86.25±7.66 vs. 278.75±9.67, Cdyn (mL/cmH 2O): 8.86±0.33 vs. 23.02±0.69, Ppeak (cmH 2O, 1 cmH 2O = 0.098 kPa): 42.17±2.69 vs. 17.67±1.15, all P < 0.01]. In addition, PaO 2/FiO 2 in the freshwater drowning group was gradually increased over time, while the seawater group continued to decline.③ Pulmonary circulation hemodynamic parameters: PAS, PAD, PAWP at the time of immediately after drowning in both freshwater and seawater groups were significantly higher than before drowning; in addition, the freshwater drowning group was significantly higher than the seawater drowning group [PAS (mmHg): 34.58±2.87 vs. 26.75±1.66, PAD (mmHg): 27.25±1.22 vs. 16.75±0.87, PAWP (mmHg): 27.83±1.85 vs. 11.75±1.82, all P < 0.01]. Thereafter, PAS and PAD in the freshwater drowning group gradually decreased, while the parameters in the seawater drown group continued to increase. PAWP gradually decreased after freshwater or seawater drowning, and recovered to pre-drowning levels 120 minutes after drowning and 30 minutes after drowning, respectively. EVLW continued to increase after freshwater drowning, reaching a peak at 30 minutes, and then decreased, until 120 minutes after drowning was still significantly higher than that before drowning (mL/kg: 10.73±1.27 vs. 7.67±0.69, P < 0.01); EVLW could not be measured.④ Residual water in the respiratory tract: residual water in the freshwater drowning group was significantly less than that in the seawater drowning group (mL: 164.33±25.21 vs. 557.33±45.23, P < 0.01).⑤ HE staining: partial alveolar atrophied in the freshwater drowning group, some alveolar spaces were broken, alveolar spaces and alveolar cavity showed a little powdery substance deposition; it was noted that alveolar expanded in the seawater drowning group, alveolar spaces were broken and bleeding and edema were obvious in the interstitial space. Conclusion:The effect of seawater drowning on the respiratory mechanics and pulmonary circulation of animals is more obvious than that of freshwater drowned animals, and the amount of residual water in the respiratory tract is also significantly more than that of freshwater drowned animals.

Objective:To compare the cuff pressure and leakage volume and the related complications of filling the tracheal tube cuff by minimum air leakage method and cuff pressure manometer method after endotracheal intubation, so as to provide theoretical basis for patients who was intubated to obtain appropriate cuff pressure.Methods:A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted. 100 patients admitted to the department of critical care medicine of the Fifth Center Hospital in Tianjin from December 2015 to June 2019 were enrolled. According to the random number table method, the patients were divided into the experimental group and control group, with 50 patients in each group. After successful endotracheal intubation, all patients were placed in a supine position with the head of the bed raised by 30°. The experimental group used the minimum air leakage method, and used the cuff pressure manometer to obtain the cuff pressure. In the control group, cuff pressure was maintained at 25-30 cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O = 0.098 kPa). Parameters such as cuff pressure and ventilator leakage volume at the beginning and 4 hours, 8 hours after the inflation were compared between the two groups, as well as the incidence of ventilation-associated pneumonia (VAP) and airway complications after extubation. Results:Among the 100 cases, 53 were males and 47 were females. The age ranged from 23 to 87 years old, with an average of (68.53±8.46) years old. The intubation time ranged from 1 to 16 days.① At 4 hours and 8 hours after inflation, the cuff pressures of the two groups were lower than that of the first time of inflation, and the air leakage of the ventilator increased gradually with the extension of time. Compared with the control group, cuff pressures at each time point in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group [mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 33.72±9.14 vs. 25.68±5.26 at 0 hour, 30.54±7.81 vs. 24.35±4.93 at 4 hours, 26.57±5.64 vs. 22.42±4.14 at 8 hours, all P < 0.05], and ventilator leakage volumes were smaller than those in the control group (mL: 25.57±8.51 vs. 34.65±9.47 at 0 hour, 40.54±8.51 vs. 60.34±7.85 at 4 hours, both P < 0.05). ② The incidence of VAP in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group (4% vs. 10%, P < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of other airway complications between the experimental group and control group (airway mucosal edema: 14% vs. 12%, ulcer: 8% vs. 6%, tracheal esophageal fistula: 0% vs. 0%, hoarseness: 4% vs. 6%, cough: 30% vs. 34%, sore throat: 28% vs. 32%, tracheal softening: 0% vs. 0%, cuff rupture: 10% vs. 8%, all P > 0.05). Conclusions:The optimal cuff pressure is very important for preventing VAP and reducing airway complications. The minimum air leakage method makes the clinical obtained endotracheal intubation cuff pressure more accurately, with less air leakage, safe and effective, and it is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To compare the therapeutic effect of fluid resuscitation strategy guided by pulse-indicated continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) monitoring and early goal-directed therapy (EGDT) on renal function of acute kidney injury (AKI) patients caused by septic shock.Methods:Septic shock patients with AKI admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of Tianjin Fifth Central Hospital and Teda International Cardiovascular Hospital from March 2017 to February 2020 were enrolled. All patients were given fluid resuscitation. Patients were divided into PiCCO-guided fluid resuscitation group [PiCCO group, intrathoracic blood volume index (ITBVI) was maintained between 850-1 000 mL/m 2] and EGDT-guided fluid resuscitation group [EGDT group, central venous pressure (CVP) was maintained between 8-12 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) or CVP ≤ 15 mmHg when patients received mechanical ventilation (MV)] according to both the patient's condition and the informed consent of the patient's family. The changes of heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), CVP, blood lactic acid (Lac), fluid balance, urine volume and serum creatinine (SCr) at 6, 24, and 48 hours after fluid resuscitation in the two groups were observed, and the renal replacement therapy (RRT), duration of MV, length of ICU stay and 28-day mortality between the two group were compared. Results:① A total of 94 patients were enrolled, including 51 in the EGDT group and 43 in the PiCCO group. There was no significant difference in gender, age, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, procalcitonin (PCT), HR, MAP, CVP, Lac or SCr at ICU admission between the two groups. ② The parameters of hemodynamics, fluid balance, urine volume and SCr were improved with the time of resuscitation in the two groups, and there was no significant difference in HR, MAP or Lac between the two groups. Compared with the EGDT group, the CVP decreased significantly at 24 hours and 48 hours after fluid resuscitation in the PiCCO group (mmHg: 9.1±0.9 vs. 12.0±1.3 at 24 hours, 8.0±1.0 vs. 10.2±1.3 at 48 hours), the fluid balance significantly decreased (mL: 2 929.8±936.3 vs. 3 898.4±923.5 at 24 hours, 3 143.5±1 325.4 vs. 4 843.8±1 326.7 at 48 hours), and the condition of urine volume and SCr were better in the PiCCO group [urine volume (mL·kg -1·h -1): 1.02±0.21 vs. 0.79±0.14 at 24 hours, 1.28±0.18 vs. 0.94±0.22 at 48 hours; SCr (μmol/L): 145.7±37.6 vs. 164.3±46.4 at 24 hours, 128.4±33.6 vs. 143.5±37.7 at 48 hours), with significant differences (all P < 0.05). ③ Compared with the EGDT group, the rate of RRT in the PiCCO group was lower [11.6% (5/43) vs. 17.6% (9/51)], the duration of MV and the length of ICU stay were shorter [duration of MV (days): 4.64±1.31 vs. 6.50±2.19, length of ICU stay (days): 10.35±3.50 vs. 14.50±5.78), with significant differences (all P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the 28-day mortality between the PiCCO group and EGDT group [14.0% (6/43) vs. 15.7% (8/51), P > 0.05]. Conclusion:Fluid resuscitation strategy guided by PiCCO in septic shock patients with AKI can reduce the amount of fluid load, improve renal function, shorten the MV duration and length of ICU stay, and shows clinical significance.

Objective To compare the systemic pathologic physiology parameter changes in sheep drowning in freshwater and seawater. Methods The experimental animals were healthy crossbred sheep. According to the envelope method, 24 sheep were randomly divided into two groups, with 12 animals in each group. The animals in both groups were subjected to mechanical ventilation and analgesia and sedation, the drowning models were reproduced by injecting 10-25 mL/kg of seawater or freshwater into the endotracheal tube of animals. The changes in hemodynamics before drowning, immediately after drowning (immediately after water injection) and 30, 60, and 120 minutes after drowning in both groups were recorded. The urine color changes after drowning and occurrence time were recorded. The animals were sacrificed at 120 minutes after drowning, and heart, kidney, liver, spleen and intestine were harvested for pathological observation under light microscope using hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. Results ① The changes in systemic hemodynamic: there was no significant difference in hemodynamics before drowning between the two groups.Compared with before drowning, heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), cardiac output (CO), left ventricular maximum systolic force index (dPmax), and pulmonary wedge pressure (PAWP) immediately after drowning in both seawater and freshwater groups were significantly increased, which showed a decrease tendency with drowning time prolongation. Compared with drowning immediately, dPmax at 30 minutes after freshwater drowning was significantly decreased (mmHg/s: 919.83±14.51 vs. 2 628.42±59.75, P < 0.01), which was below the level before drowning till 120 minutes. CO at 30 minutes after freshwater drowning was retreated as compared with drowning immediately, but it was still higher than that before drowning (L/min: 8.25±0.66 vs. 5.75±0.73, P < 0.01). Global end-diastolic volume (GEDV) and PAWP at 120 minutes after freshwater drowning were decreased to the level before drowning [GEDV (mL): 642.92±7.29 vs. 638.25±7.00, PAWP (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 5.83±1.19 vs. 5.42±1.08, both P > 0.05]. Compared with immediately after drowning, MAP, CO and PAWP at 30 minutes after seawater drowning were significantly lowered [MAP (mmHg): 90.50±3.58 vs. 159.42±3.18, CO (L/min): 2.37±0.45 vs. 10.33±0.73, PAWP (mmHg): 4.17±0.72 vs. 11.75±1.82, all P < 0.01], which were lower than those before drowning till 120 minutes. After drowning for 30 minutes, MAP, CO and PAWP in seawater group were significantly lower than those in freshwater group [MAP (mmHg): 90.50±3.58 vs. 117.42±1.78, CO (L/min): 2.37±0.45 vs. 8.25±0.66, PAWP (mmHg): 4.17±0.72 vs. 24.83±1.27], dPmax was significantly increased (mmHg/s: 1 251.42±62.50 vs. 919.83±14.51, all P < 0.01), and the tendency continued till 120 minutes. There was no significant difference in HR at all the time points between the two groups. ② The changes in urine: after freshwater drowning, the animals had hemoglobinuria and lasted until the end of the experiment, and the time of hemoglobinuria occurrence was at 20-35 minutes after drowning with an average of (25.30±5.15) minutes. After seawater drowning, the change in urine was not found until the end of the experiment.③ The variations of each organ tissue in pathology and hematology at 120 minutes after drowning: after freshwater drowning, the systemic tissue edema was found in organs such as heart, kidney, liver, spleen, and small intestine. After seawater drowning, there were different degrees of edema in the systemic organs, and some of them shrank. Conclusions After freshwater drowning, the animals showed decreased dPmax, increased CO and blood volume, edema and hemolysis of the tissue cells. After seawater drowning, CO and blood volume decreased, and some tissue cells were in atrophy.

Objective To investigate the effect of daily quality checklist on intensive care unit (ICU) the incidence of severe patients with hospital associated infection (HAI). Methods A historical control study was conducted. In Tianjin Fifth Center Hospital from June 2016 to May 2017, 286 severe patients with mechanical ventilation (MV) and using ICU daily quality checklist were assigned as the experimental group, and from June 2015 to May 2016, 291 severe patients who did not use the daily quality checklist were selected as the control group. In the control group, the routine treatment, nursing care and ward rounds were the daily ordinary work; in the experimental group, the severe disease ICU quality checklist system was strictly carried out, and every day the doctor and nurse on duty applied the checklist to assess and verify the medical quality given to the patient, including sedation, analgesia, MV, glycemic control, nutrition, etc 16 items. The incidences of ventilation associated pneumonia (VAP), catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI), catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI), 28-day mortality, time of MV and the length of ICU stay were compared between the two groups. Results Compared with the control group, the incidences of VAP, CRBSI and CAUTI of experimental group were obviously decreased (VAP: 1.78‰ vs. 5.09‰, CRBSI: 1.46‰vs. 5.21‰; CAUTI: 1.39‰ vs. 4.41‰, all P ＜ 0.05), the time of MV and the length of ICU stay in experimental group were significantly shorter than those in the control group [the time of MV (days): 7.81±2.74 vs. 10.62±3.67, the length of ICU stay (days): 8.40±1.94 vs. 11.35±2.47, both P ＜ 0.05]; there was a decreasing tendency of 28-day mortality in experimental group compared with that in control group [5.24% (15/286) vs. 6.19% (18/291)], but no statistical significant difference was seen (P ＞ 0.05). Conclusion Implementation of daily quality checklist can effectively decrease the incidence of HAI in ICU patients, reduce the time of MV and the length of ICU stay.

Objective To translate the Water Orientation Test of Alyn 2 (WOTA2) into Chinese, and to study its reliability and validity for patients with spinal cord injury. Methods After authorizing, the English version WOTA2 scale and its training package were translated into Chinese. From January to September, 2018, 137 patients with spinal cord injury were evaluated with the Chinese version WOTA2 by two evaluators independently, and evaluated again three days later by one of the evaluators. The Cronbach's α, Spearman-Brown coefficient, intra-group correlation coefficient (ICC) and Kappa coefficient were calculated to evaluate the reliability. Content Validity Index (CVI) of items (I-CVI) and scale (S-CVI) were used to evaluate the content validity, and factors analysis was used to evaluate the structure validity. Results The Cronbach's α was 0.947 in all items of the scale, 0.890 in mental adjustment items and 0.954 in aquatic skills items. Pearson correlation coefficient of the half scales separated by odd and even items was 0.948, and the Spearman-Brown coefficient was 0.973. The ICC of test-retest was 0.965 in total score, 0.965 in centesimal system total score, 0.847 in mental adjustment score and 0.970 in aquatic skills score. The ICC of inter-testers was 0.964 in total score, 0.965 in centesimal system total score, 0.847 in mental adjustment score and 0.970 in aquatic skills score. The Kappa coefficient was 0.528 to 0.927 in test-retest and 0.528 to 0.927 in inter-testers. The I-CVI was 0.8 to 1.0 and S-CVI was 0.63. Factors analysis extracted four factors, which met the theory, and contributed 67% of cumulative variance. Conclusion The Chinese version WOTA2 is good in reliability and validity for patients with spinal cord injury, and can be used in the clinical practice of aquatic therapeutic exercise in China.
