Mental state is an important part of the normal life activities of the human body, and it is also the most external expression and the most easily obtained information of the physical condition. The normal activities of the mind depend on the normal operation of the viscera, qi, and blood, and are a unified whole that prospers together and suffers together. The theory of the five-spirit-viscera in the Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic revealed that the normal mental activities of the human body were dominated by the five internal organs, that is, the five internal organs were the body and the five spirits were the function. And it highlighted the viewpoint that the five internal organs store the spirits and are actually one. The heart governs the spirit and belongs to the four internal organs. On this basis, Synopsis of Golden Chamber used the internal organs to diagnose and treat mental diseases, integrating the theory of the five spirits into it, forming a unique method of diagnosis and treatment with the heart as the leading factor and regulating the qi and blood of the four internal organs. It identified the pathogenesis of diseases such as pathogenic crying, lily disease, and hysteria from five levels: heart deficiency and weak qi, heart-lung disharmony, heart-liver disharmony, the heart of the loss of the spleen nourishment, and disharmony between heart and kidney. The treatment was mainly to replenish the deficiency of the viscera and eliminate the pathogens, reflecting the characteristics of regulating the mind and calming the four internal organs. This unique view on diagnosis and treatment has profoundly influenced the diagnosis and treatment theories of mental illnesses by later doctors, and is of great significance to the current clinical treatment of such illnesses.

Hearing loss is the most prevalent disabling disease. Cochlear implantation（CI） serves as the primary intervention for severe to profound hearing loss. This consensus systematically explores the value of genetic diagnosis in the pre-operative assessment and efficacy prognosis for CI. Drawing upon domestic and international research and clinical experience, it proposes an evidence-based medicine three-tiered prognostic classification system（Favorable, Marginal, Poor）. The consensus focuses on common hereditary non-syndromic hearing loss（such as that caused by mutations in genes like GJB2, SLC26A4, OTOF, LOXHD1） and syndromic hereditary hearing loss（such as Jervell & Lange-Nielsen syndrome and Waardenburg syndrome）, which are closely associated with congenital hearing loss, analyzing the impact of their pathological mechanisms on CI outcomes. The consensus provides recommendations based on multiple round of expert discussion and voting. It emphasizes that genetic diagnosis can optimize patient selection, predict prognosis, guide post-operative rehabilitation, offer stratified management strategies for patients with different genotypes, and advance the application of precision medicine in the field of CI.

Objective To explore the relationship between serum ferritin levels and body fat distribution in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 151 patients with T2DM who were hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology of the First Hospital of Lanzhou University from June to November 2020,and all the patients were divided into high serum ferritin(n=50)and normal serum ferritin(n=101)groups according to their serum ferritin levels.The visceral fat area(VFA),subcutaneous fat area(SFA),liver fat,height,weight and waist circumference(WC)were measured,as well as blood glucose,lipid indexes,body mass index(BMI)and visceral adiposity index(VAI)were also calculated.t-test or nonparametric test was used to compare the differences between the two groups,and the relationship between serum ferritin levels and body fat distribution was analyzed by Pearson or Spearman correlation analysis,multiple linear regression and logistic regression.Results The VAI and WC were significantly higher in high serum ferritin group[3.13(2.16,4.58)and(96.66±7.78)cm]than in normal serum ferritin group[2.66(1.66,3.81)and(91.96±9.75)cm,P<0.05].The prevalence of central obesity and dyslipidemia was higher in high serum ferritin group(88.0%and 90.0%)than in normal serum ferritin group(68.3%and 75.2%);and the composition ratios of poor glycemic control and insulin resistance(96.0%and 62.0%)were also higher than in normal serum ferritin group(78.2%and 40.6%)(P<0.05),there were no statistically significant differences in BMI,VFA,and SFA levels,as well as antidiabetic drug use and chronic complications of diabetes mellitus between the two groups(P>0.05).Serum ferritin levels in T2DM patients were positively correlated with VAI,WC,triglyceride(TG),fasting blood glucose(FPG),HbA1c,dyslipidemia and serum creatinine(r=0.171,0.207,0.187,0.243,0.270,0.162,0.162;P<0.05),and negatively correlated with age,sex and diabetes course(r=-0.191,-0.434,-0.352;P<0.05).Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that in male T2DM patients,duration of diabetes and FPG were risk factors for increased levels of serum ferritin.However,WC and VAI did not significantly affect serum ferritin levels.In female patients with T2DM,the course of diabetes,TG and VAI were the factors influencing serum ferritin(P<0.05).Conclusion Dyslipidemia and visceral fat accumulation are risk factors for elevated serum ferritin levels in female T 2DM patients.

Genitourinary tract malignant lymphoma is rare, and primary malignant lymphoma of the lower urinary tract is even rarer. This article reported a female patient with primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in the urethra. The patient was admitted due to progressive dysuria, because ultrasound indicated a lesion in the urethra, transurethral resection of the lesion was performed, which revealed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the urethra. R-CHOP chemotherapy regimen of four cycles was performed after surgery, and urination symptoms relieved. There was no recurrence or metastasis after 6 months of follow-up.

Since the World Health Organization(WHO)officially announced COVID-19 as a global pandemic in 2020,114 countries or regions in the world have been affected to varying degrees.The arrival of the post-epidemic era requires countries to take new epidemic prevention and control measures to deal with the problems and challenges that may arise in the future.In order to help China consolidate its epidemic prevention achievements over the years and gain a larger development window in the post-epidemic era,this study explored the changes in the global epidemic situation and the major national prevention and control policies in different countries,summarized the development and changes of China's epidemic prevention and control policies,and proposed new family-centered precision prevention and control measures that adapt to China's national conditions.

Objective To explore the quantitative evaluation of integrity risk prevention and control in public hospitals,provide reference for improving the quality and efficiency of integrity risk prevention and control.Methods Self-designed"Inspection Standards for Integrity Risk Prevention and Control of Power Matters in Public Hospitals"was used to score and rate the power matters provided by each functional department/clinical department of West China Hospital of Sichuan University from three aspects:the clarity of power operation process,the accuracy of finding integrity risk points,the effectiveness of prevention and control measures.Results A total of 236 power matters of the hospital were inspected for integrity risk prevention and control,and according to the inspection criteria,57 items were rated as first grade,103 items were rated as second grade,and 76 items were rated as third grade,accounting for 24.15％,43.64％and 32.20％,respectively.The score for the special work of integrity risk prevention and control was 5.82±1.92 points,of which the process dimension score was 2.11±0.75 points,the risk points dimension score was 1.89±0.92 points,the prevention and control dimension score is 1.89± 0.79 points,which reflects the problems of unclear workflow,inaccurate finding of individual risk points,and unspecified prevention and control measures in some units.Conclusion Hospitals should focus on the concreteness,accuracy,salience and quantification in the long-term construction of integrity risk prevention and control from the aspects of thought,behavior,effectiveness and evaluation.

SUMMARY The mesothelium,which consists of a monolayer of mesothelial cells,extends over the sur-face of the serosal cavities(pleura,pericardium,peritoneum and tunica vaginalis).Mesothelial tumours of the tunica vaginalis is rare compared with those arise from pleura or peritoneum.According to World Health Organization 2022 Classification of Urinary and Male Genital Tumours(5th edition),mesothelial tumours of the tunica vaginalis were categorized into adenomatoid tumour,well-differentiated papillary mesothelial tumour(WDPMT)and mesothelioma.Since WDPMT of tunica vaginalis was rare,there was no consensus concerning the treatment of it.In this case report,a 29-year-old man who had endured intermittent right scrotal pain for 8 months,aggravating scrotal pain for 2 weeks was admitted.No symptoms,such as frequent,urgent,or painful urination were shown.Physical examination revealed the enlargement and tenderness of right scrotum,with no signs of lifting pain.The most recent scrotal ultrasonography be-fore surgery revealed right hydrocele with maximum depth of 4 centimeters and poor blood flow of right testis.Under the circumstance of patient's chronic history of testicular hydrocele,he underwent an emer-gency operation of right scrotal exploration and hydrocelectomy under epidural anesthesia.After opening the vagina tunic cavity,spot-like bleeding was observed on the right testicle,epididymis and vaginalis surface.The vaginalis was obviously thickened and the inner and outer walls were smooth.The post-operative histopathology revealed a grayish-brown tissue with a thickness of 0.3-0.5 cm,smooth inner and outer walls,and a suspected WDPMT with a diameter of 1.5 cm.Immunohistochemical staining showed positive for Calretinin,BAP1,WT-1,CK5/6,D2-40 and P16,which confirmed the diagnosis of WDPMT.To sum up,the purpose of this case report was to raise awareness of a rare disease WDPMT,which was usually asymptomatic and could be diagnosed by pathology and immunohistochemistry.The disease should be differentiated from testicular torsion,epididymitis,orchitis and oblique inguinal hernia in symptoms,and from malignant mesothelioma and adenomatoid tumour in pathology.Because of the rarity of the cases,there was no unified standard for the treatment of WDPMT at present.The common treatment methods reported in literature included orchidectomy and vaginectomy.Due to the lack of un-derstanding of this disease,postoperative follow-up was still recommended for at least 5 years.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value immature granulocyte percentage(IG％)and other inflammatory indicators in the severity of acute appendicitis.Methods:A total of 201 pediatric patients undergoing appendicitis surgery admitted to Zhoukou Central Hospital from June 2022 to August 2023 were included.Patients with pathologically confirmed actue appendici-tis were divided two subgroups:actue simple appendicitis(ASA)group and actue complicated ap-pendicitis(ACA)group,The variables that included IG％,white blood cell(WBC)count,absolute neutrophil count(ANC),absolute lymphocyte count(ALC),neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio(NLR),pro-calcitonin(PCT),C-reactive protein(CRP),platelet to lymphocyte(PLR)and other indexes were ana-lyzed between ASA and ACA group.The logistic regression model for diagnosis of ACA was es-tablished,and the diagostic value of this model and other inflammtory indicators for ACA was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis.Results:The levels of IG％,WBC,ANC,ALC,NLR,PCT and PLR were higher and the level of ALC was lower in ACA group than those in ASA group(all P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that IG％,NLR and CRP were three diagnostic determinants of ACA(all P＜0.05).The AUC of the established logistic model and IG％,NLR,CRP were 0.868,0.821,0.691 and 0.790(all P＜0.001).The logistic model was vali-dated by independent cohorts,and the AUC was 0.872,the sensitivity was 90.0％and the speci-ficity was 75.6％.Conlusions:The IG％value can early indicator for pediatric ACA,and the es-tablished logistic regression model based on biomarkers including IG％,NLR and CRP has clinical value in diagnosing ACA in children.
