ObjectiveTo develop a systematic case management model based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) Vocational Rehabilitation Core Set (VR-CS) and explore its application pathways and efficacy in vocational rehabilitation. The 13 core categories of VR-CS are applied in vocational rehabilitation case management practices, utilizing comprehensive functional assessments to design and implement structured and individualized case management plans. This, in turn, seeks to enhance individuals' vocational independence, social participation and overall quality of life. MethodsThis study adopted a combined approach of theoretical research and empirical case analysis. Based on the 13 core categories of VR-CS, a comprehensive vocational assessment was conducted across three dimensions: body function and structure, activities and participation, and environmental factors. The study theoretically analyzed how to develop and implement holistic and individualized vocational rehabilitation plans, along with dynamic monitoring processes. Three types of typical vocational rehabilitation cases were examined, including individuals with major depressive disorder, high-functioning autism and mild cognitive impairment, to illustrate the evidence and effectiveness of VR-CS-based case management. ResultsThe VR-CS-based case management method, grounded in the ICF bio-psycho-social model, constructed an integrated and individualized case management system. This system combined the assessment and analysis of vocational rehabilitation needs, goal setting and planning, multidisciplinary team intervention, individualized interventions, process monitoring and dynamic adjustments, return-to-work activities, and long-term follow-up services.The case management model developed through VR-CS demonstrated significant and systematic efficacy in promoting vocational independence and social participation. This study provided a detailed analysis of the primary methods and steps involved in designing and implementing case management and elaborates on the practical applications of this model from the three representative cases. At the body function and structure level, case management included the evaluation of energy and drive functions (b130), high-level cognitive training (b164), and the enhancement of exercise tolerance (b455). Case management focused on accurately setting short- and long-term goals around functional limitations and needs. Dynamic monitoring during interventions ensured timely adjustments to intervention measures. This process improved physical endurance and cognitive function, enhanced sustained work capacity in complex vocational environments. At the activities and participation level, the focus was on skill acquisition (d155), stress management and psychological adjustment (d240), and the cultivation of complex interpersonal communication abilities (d720). Individuals engaged in regular professional skills training, role-playing and simulated work scenarios to progressively enhance vocational adaptability and social interaction skills. Through this process, individuals acquired practical skills, gradually boosting self-efficacy and vocational confidence, thereby facilitating the reshaping of their social roles. At the environmental and personal factors level, case management pathways involved active participation from immediate family (e310), positive shifts in societal attitudes (e460), and the effective utilization of health and employment policy resources (e580, e590). By integrating social and community resources comprehensively, the program created a more inclusive and supportive rehabilitation environment. By designing and implementing systematic case management programs, individuals showed significant improvements in psychological well-being, vocational adaptability and social interaction skills. The majority of cases achieved stable employment or continued participation in social activities following the intervention. ConclusionVR-CS provides a systematic, multidimensional and person-centered case management framework. This framework applies the bio-psycho-social model, analyzing individuals' primary functional impairments and vocational rehabilitation needs from the perspectives of body functions, psychological states and environmental factors. On this basis, a comprehensive, targeted and holistic case management plan is developed and implemented. The VR-CS-based case management approach not only enhances vocational capabilities but also improves overall quality of life and social adaptability.

Background: and Purpose Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) following endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) is a severe complication associated with adverse functional outcomes and increased mortality rates. Currently, a reliable predictive model for sICH risk after EVT is lacking. Methods: This study used data from patients aged ≥20 years who underwent EVT for anterior circulation stroke from the nationwide Taiwan Registry of Endovascular Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke (TREAT-AIS). A predictive model including factors associated with an increased risk of sICH after EVT was developed to differentiate between patients with and without sICH. This model was compared existing predictive models using nationwide registry data to evaluate its relative performance. Results: Of the 2,507 identified patients, 158 developed sICH after EVT. Factors such as diastolic blood pressure, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score, platelet count, glucose level, collateral score, and successful reperfusion were associated with the risk of sICH after EVT. The TREAT-AIS score demonstrated acceptable predictive accuracy (area under the curve [AUC]=0.694), with higher scores being associated with an increased risk of sICH (odds ratio=2.01 per score increase, 95% confidence interval=1.64–2.45, P<0.001). The discriminatory capacity of the score was similar in patients with symptom onset beyond 6 hours (AUC=0.705). Compared to existing models, the TREAT-AIS score consistently exhibited superior predictive accuracy, although this difference was marginal. Conclusions The TREAT-AIS score outperformed existing models, and demonstrated an acceptable discriminatory capacity for distinguishing patients according to sICH risk levels. However, the differences between models were only marginal. Further research incorporating periprocedural and postprocedural factors is required to improve the predictive accuracy.

Objective:To explore the relationship among sleep phenotypes, attention deficit and hyperactivity impulsivity (ADHD) symptoms and cognitive information processing in children with ADHD.Methods:A total of 244 children with ADHD aged 6-12 were selected from December 2021 to December 2022.Swanson, Nolan and Pelham rating scale Ⅳ(SNAP-Ⅳ) was used to evaluate the core symptoms of ADHD.Sleep disturbance scale for children (SDSC) was used to evaluate six sleep phenotypes((disorders in initiating and maintaining sleep (DIMS), sleep breathing disorders(SDB), sleep-wake transition disorders(SWTD), disorders of arousal(DA), disorders of excessive somnolence (DOES), and Nocturnal hyperhidrosis(SHY)). Das-Naglieri cognitive function assessment system (DN-CAS) was used to evaluate the cognitive information processing (planning, simultaneous processing, attention and successive processing). Descriptive statistical analysis, Spearman correlation analysis, and mediation analysis were conducted by SPSSAU 23.0 and Zstats software, respectively.Results:Correlation analysis showed that DIMS, SDB, SWTD, DA and DOES were significantly and positively correlated with attention deficit ( r=0.190-0.349, all P<0.01).DIMS(2.14(1.71, 2.57)), SWTD(1.67(1.33, 2.00)) and SHY(2.00(1.50, 3.00)) were significantly positively correlated with hyperactive impulsivity (1.44(1.00, 2.00))( r=0.193, 0.242, 0.133, P<0.05). Attention deficit(1.78(1.44, 2.33)) was significantly and negatively correlated with successive processing(105.00(96.00, 112.00)) ( r=-0.127, P<0.05). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that after controlling for sex, age, verbal IQ and operational IQ, DIMS ( β=0.152, P<0.05) and SWTD ( β=0.178, P<0.05) had significant positive predictive effects on hyperactive impulsivity symptoms. DOES ( β=0.259, P<0.01) had significant positive predictive effects on attention deficit symptoms. Attention deficit ( β=-0.183, P<0.05) had a significant negative predictive effect on successive processing. Mediation effect analysis showed that attention deficit played a complete mediating role between DOES and successive processing(effect=-0.179, Bootstrap 95% CI=-0.196--0.110). Conclusion:Different sleep phenotypes are associated with ADHD core symptoms and different dimensions of cognitive information processing processes. DOES indirectly affects successive processing capability by attention deficit symptoms.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objectives: This study aimed to present the Asia-Pacific consensus on long-term and sequential therapy for osteoporosis, offering evidence-based recommendations for the effective management of this chronic condition.The primary focus is on achieving optimal fracture prevention through a comprehensive, individualized approach. Methods: A panel of experts convened to develop consensus statements by synthesizing the current literature and leveraging clinical expertise. The review encompassed long-term anti-osteoporosis medication goals, first-line treatments for individuals at very high fracture risk, and the strategic integration of anabolic and anti resorptive agents in sequential therapy approaches. Results: The panelists reached a consensus on 12 statements. Key recommendations included advocating for anabolic agents as the first-line treatment for individuals at very high fracture risk and transitioning to anti resorptive agents following the completion of anabolic therapy. Anabolic therapy remains an option for in dividuals experiencing new fractures or persistent high fracture risk despite antiresorptive treatment. In cases of inadequate response, the consensus recommended considering a switch to more potent medications. The consensus also addressed the management of medication-related complications, proposing alternatives instead of discontinuation of treatment. Conclusions This consensus provides a comprehensive, cost-effective strategy for fracture prevention with an emphasis on shared decision-making and the incorporation of country-specific case management systems, such as fracture liaison services. It serves as a valuable guide for healthcare professionals in the Asia-Pacific region, contributing to the ongoing evolution of osteoporosis management.

Aiming at the current situation of insufficient integration of medical humanities teaching and clinical practice,as well as the need for further research and improvement in the teaching system,guided by the concept of medicine and humanistic literacy integration advocated by the new medical science,this paper deeply discussed the construction of clinical medical humanities teaching system from four aspects,including the selection of clinical medical humanities teachers and team building;the teaching path that combines theoretical education,narrative medicine,and clinical skill training infused with medical humanities content;curriculum ideological and political construction with the goal of establishing the core concept and value orientation of"patient-centered";the teaching assessment and evaluation method characterized by formative evaluation.The clinical medical humanities teaching system emphasizes the practicality,experiential,and emotional aspects of medical humanities teaching,deeply integrating medical humanities with clinical practice teaching content throughout the clinical internship period of medical education,with a view to enhancing the humanistic practice ability and literacy of medical students.
