Primary pulmonary nuclear protein of the testis (NUT) midline carcinoma (NMC) is a rare and highly aggressive thoracic malignancy that poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in clinical practice. This tumor is characterized by its heterogeneous clinical presentations and poor prognosis, often evading accurate initial diagnosis. In this study, we present two cases of primary pulmonary NMC treated with an integrated therapeutic approach combining anti-angiogenic agents, platinum-based chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. This multimodal strategy achieved survival durations of 32 and 13 months, respectively, surpassing the currently reported median survival of advanced NMC. Through a systematic literature review of reported cases, we have summarized the currently used diagnostic methods and treatment modalities for NMC. Our findings suggest that multimodal therapy incorporating anti-angiogenic treatment may offer superior clinical outcomes compared to conventional monotherapy regimens, particularly for patients who are not eligible for surgery. This comprehensive investigation enhances our understanding of NMC management by elucidating diagnostic pitfalls through histopathological correlation and proposing an effective therapeutic combination that demonstrates improved survival outcomes. By providing valuable insights into the diagnosis and treatment of primary pulmonary NMC, we hope to contribute to the development of more effective strategies for managing this rare and aggressive malignancy.

Objective To construct the theoretical framework of rehabilitation big data based on International Classification of Func-tioning,Disability and Health(ICF). Methods Drawing upon international rehabilitation policy documents,such as the World Health Organization's Rehabili-tation in health systems;Rehabilitation in health systems:guide for action;Rehabilitation indicator menu:a tool accompanying the Framework for Rehabilitation Monitoring and Evaluation(FRAME);Template for Rehabilita-tion Information Collection(TRIC):a tool accompanying the Systematic Assessment of Rehabilitation Situation(STARS);and Framework and Standards for Country Health Information Systems;this study examined the com-position and function of rehabilitation big data.The content structure of the rehabilitation big data domain was an-alyzed using the World Health Organization Family of International Classifications(WHO-FICs).Furthermore,the generation patterns of rehabilitation big data was constructed drawing on the Health Metrics Network and big data hierarchical classification. Results Within the six primary elements of the health service system,the information system element was particularly significant,encompassing a substantial branch known as rehabilitation big data.There were three components of rehabilitation big data:health condition,health-related factors and health services.The content framework for this data was derived from the WHO-FICs framework,which covered three dimensions:health and function,dis-ease and function,and disease,function and intervention.A comprehensive model for generating and applying re-habilitation big data in rehabilitation services was developed in line with the requirements for constructing big da-ta architectures.The sources of this data included population censuses,social registration information,population surveys,resources,services and personal records.The result chain of rehabilitation big data encompassed five major processes:input,process,output,outcome and impact.The processing and utilization of this data involved collection,storage,management,analysis and application. Conclusion A theoretical framework for rehabilitation big data has been constructed based on the ICF theory.

Objective To explore and organize the standards of rehabilitation big data. Methods The connotation and extension of rehabilitation big data were discussed based on International Classification of Functioning,Disability and Health(ICF)framework.Referring to the documents of Guidance on the analysis and use of routine health information systems rehabilitation module,Rehabilitation in health systems:guide for action,Rehabilitation indicator menu:a tool accompanying the Framework for Rehabilitation Monitoring and Evaluation(FRAME),and Data quality assurance.Module 1.Framework and metrics,the sources,patterns,clas-sification systems and coding standards were discussed under the ICF theory,and the metadata standards were ex-plored.The application and management of rehabilitation big data standards were discussed according to Nation-al Health Medical Big Data Standards,Security and Service Management Measures(Trial). Results The rehabilitation big data included rehabilitation service data and personal health data,coming from population-based and institution-based data,covering macro,meso and micro levels.The pattern of rehabilitation data flow corresponded to the interaction and source of the entire process of rehabilitation service,to organize and manage rehabilitation big data.The classification system included object classes,object feature classes,participant role classes,relationship classes,and activity and event classes,each of which was further subdivided into subcatego-ries to cover the entities,features,roles,relationships and activities involved in the rehabilitation process.The metadata standards included three levels:core,general and specialized metadata,ensuring standardized manage-ment,sharing and interoperability of rehabilitation data. Conclusion This study delves into the standardization of rehabilitation big data based on the ICF framework,encompass-ing multiple dimensions such as the connotation and extension of rehabilitation big data,data sources,data mod-els,classification systems,coding standards,and metadata standards.The construction of a rehabilitation big data standard system involves standardization efforts in various aspects,including data content,data structure,data coding,and metadata.These standards not only adhere to the norms of data flow,but also take into account the complexity of data composition.This system aligns with health big data standards,ensuring data consistency,ac-curacy,and interoperability,thus providing a foundation for effective exchange and comparison between different data sources.The establishment of a rehabilitation big data standard system not only ensures the standardized pro-cessing of rehabilitation big data,but also lays a solid foundation for effective exchange between rehabilitation big data and other health data,as well as for the widespread application of rehabilitation big data.This provides crucial support for improving the quality and efficiency of rehabilitation services,ensuring that patients receive appropriate care,rehabilitation and support.It holds significant theoretical and practical implications for promot-ing the development of the rehabilitation field.

Objective:To investigate the pathway of self-disclosure to posttraumatic growth in patients after cervical cancer surgery, and to provide reference for improving the level of posttraumatic growth in patients.Methods:A convenient sampling method was used to investigate 300 patients with cervical cancer after surgery in Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from June to November 2022 by using general data questionnaire, Distress Disclosure Index (DDI), Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), the Shortened Chinese Version of the Family Resilience Assessment Scale (FRAS-C) and the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI) in a cross-section study.Results:A total of 290 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective recovery rate of 96.7%. The patients were aged 23-70(48.13 ± 10.39) years. The scores of self-disclosure, resilience, family resilience and posttraumatic growth were (46.41 ± 9.82), (67.06 ± 14.63), (108.18 ± 11.06) and (58.24 ± 17.86) respectively. The results of pathway analysis showed that self-disclosure could not only directly predict posttraumatic growth, but also indirectly predict posttraumatic growth through the mediating role of resilience and family resilience, and the chain mediating role of resilience and family resilience, respectively. The direct effect of self-disclosure on posttraumatic growth was 0.236(95% CI 0.138-0.335), and the chain mediating effect of family resilience and resilience between self-disclosure and posttraumatic growth was 0.036(95% CI 0.018-0.060). Conclusions:Medical staff should not only consider the direct influence of self-disclosure on posttraumatic growth, but also pay attention to improve the resilience and family flexibility of patients after cervical cancer surgery, so as to promote their posttraumatic growth.

Objective:To investigate the application status of emergency radiology in China, and to provide data support for the standardized development, scientific management and big data research of emergency radiology.Methods:From August 12th to October 19th, 2022, a questionnaire survey was conducted through WeChat"Questionnaire Star"to send targeted questionnaires to investigate the relevant data of the current status of emergency radiology in China, mainly including digital radiography (DR) and computed tomography (CT). This study was initiated by the Chinese Emergency Radiology Database Collaboration Group, and comprehensively investigated emergency imaging personnel, equipment, workload, critical value reporting process, and artificial intelligence (AI) application status.Results:There were 123 hospitals in the study. The survey showed that emergency DR/CT reports were mainly completed by residents and above (69.1%). There were 21 DR brands, 10 CT brands and 8 MR brands used for emergency imaging examinations. The median number of DR examinations in tertiary hospitals and secondary hospitals investigated from January to June 2022 was 4 642 and 2 015 cases respectively, and the median number of CT examinations was 16 512 and 3 762 cases respectively. The average single-shift workload of DR in the emergency radiology department during the day and night shift in tertiary hospitals was mainly ≤20 copies and 21-50 copies, and the average single-shift workload of CT in the emergency radiology department during the day and night shift was mainly 21-50 copies and 51-100 copies, while the average single-shift workload of DR/CT in the emergency radiology department during the day/night shift in secondary hospitals was mainly ≤20 copies. In terms of critical value reporting process, 74.8% of emergency imaging doctors and 84.6% of emergency imaging technicians took the way of phone/text message to notify the clinical doctor or the patients′ family. The overall deployment rate of AI in emergency imaging was about 60.2%. 75% of the respondents believed that in the future, AI can improve emergency radiology work from aspects such as emergency screening, aided diagnosis and process optimization.Conclusions:The emergency medical imaging mainly based on DR and CT has the current situations such as generally low seniority of doctors, diverse brands of imaging equipments, large volume of examinations and intense workload per doctor, especially in tertiary hospitals, and dependence on traditional means for critical value reporting. At present, AI is emerging in the field of emergency imaging, and there is still a long way to go to play the huge potential of AI in the intelligent whole process of emergency imaging in the future.
