OBJECTIVE:To compare the clinical efficacy and radiological results of arthroscopic all-inside technique and traditional technique in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.METHODS:Databases such as CNKI,WanFang,VIP,PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,and Cochrane Library were searched for literature on all-inside technique and traditional technique in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.The search time was from the establishment of each database to September 2024.Meta-analysis was conducted on the included literature.RESULTS:(1)A total of 17 articles were included in the meta-analysis,with 631 patients in the all-inside technique reconstruction group and 626 patients in the traditional technique reconstruction group.The earliest time for the last follow-up was half a year after surgery,and the latest was 5 years after surgery.Most follow-up period was 2 years.(2)Meta-analysis results showed that compared with traditional anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction,the all-inside technique had a thicker graft during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction[mean difference(MD)=0.20,95％confidence interval(CI)(0.09,0.31),P=0.000 5],smaller postoperative maximum diameter[standardized mean difference(SMD)=-3.64,95％CI(-6.00,-1.28),P=0.002]and volume[SMD=-3.69,95％CI(-5.37,-2.00),P＜0.000 1]of the tibial tunnel,and higher International Knee Documentation Committee subjective scores[MD=2.41,95％CI(0.49,4.32),P=0.01]and Lysholm scores[MD=1.11,95％CI(0.42,1.8),P=0.002]2 years after surgery.However,the operation time was relatively longer[MD=10.06,95％CI(4.71,15.4),P=0.000 2],and the knee stability was poorer after 2 years[SMD=0.3,95％CI(0.04,0.55),P=0.02].No significant differences were found between the two groups in the following aspects:the subjective scores of the International Knee Documentation Committee at 6 months and 1 year postoperatively[MD=-0.05,95％CI(-1.96,1.83),P=0.96;MD=0.51,95％CI(-1.17,2.19),P=0.55];the difference in anterior laxity of bilateral knees at 1 year postoperatively[SMD=-0.02,95％CI(-0.3,0.27),P=0.9];the Lysholm score at 6 months postoperatively[MD=0.87,95％CI(-0.15,1.89),P=0.09];the objective score of the International Knee Documentation Committee at the last follow-up[RR=0.95,95％CI(0.86,1.06),P=0.37];the American Knee Society Score at the last follow-up[MD=0.33,95％CI(-0.55,1.21),P=0.47];the Tegner score at the last follow-up[MD=0.05,95％CI(-0.11,0.22),P=0.53];the negative rate of the pivot shift test at the last follow-up[RR=0.92,95％CI(0.83,1.01),P=0.09];the postoperative revision rate at the last follow-up[RR=2.2,95％CI(0.98,4.92),P=0.05];and the result of the single-leg hop test at the last follow-up[MD=-0.06,95％CI(-4.99,4.86),P=0.98].CONCLUSION:There were no significant differences in most functional outcome scores and the position of the tibial tunnel between the all-inside technique and the traditional technique after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.The all-inside technique was more favorable in terms of subjective International Knee Documentation Committee scores and Lysholm scores at 2 years postoperatively.Meanwhile,the knee joint was more stable 2 years after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using the traditional technique.In addition,it was found that the graft was thicker during the all-inside technique,while the diameter and volume of the tibial tunnel were smaller postoperatively,with more bone tissue preserved.Nevertheless,the operation time of the all-inside technique was longer.

Objective:To evaluate the dosimetric characteristics of intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) and photon volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) in radiation therapy planning for patients with bilateral breast cancer after breast-conserving surgery.Methods:On the computed tomography localization images of 18 patients with bilateral breast cancer, target volumes and organs at risk were contoured to develop both IMPT and VMAT plans for each patient. Two IMPT plans were designed based on the clinical target volume (CTV) with robust optimization (RO-IMPT) and the planning target volume (PTV) without RO (NonRO-IMPT), respectively. The RO-IMPT, NonRO-IMPT, and VMAT plans were normalized such that the prescription dose could cover 95% of the target volume. The dosimetric parameters of target volumes and organs at risk were evaluated, and the dosimetric characteristics of the two techniques were compared.Results:In terms of target volumes, the RO-IMPT group showed significantly lower D1%, Dmean, and homogeneity index (HI) and a significantly higher D99% of the CTV than those of the PTV in the VMAT group ( t=-8.96, -8.21, -8.13, 4.96, P<0.05). The NonRO-IMPT group showed significantly lower D1%, Dmean, and HI and a significantly higher conformity index of the PTV than those of the PTV in the VMAT group ( t=-7.75, -6.25, -6.11, 7.53, P<0.05). In terms of organs at risk, the two IMPT groups showed significantly lower values than the VMAT group for the V5- V30 and Dmean of the whole lungs, V5- V40 and Dmean of the heart, D1% and Dmean of the left anterior descending coronary artery, D1% of the spinal cord, Dmean of normal tissues, and Dmean of the skin ( t= -28.47 to -3.25, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in any other evaluation indices ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Both IMPT and VMAT can meet the clinical requirements of radiotherapy plans following breast-conserving surgery for bilateral breast cancer. IMPT has apparent advantages over VMAT in protecting organs at risk.

Objective To construct a clinical-radiological nomo-gram model for severe mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia coinfec-tion with other pathogens(Co-SMPP)in children.Methods The clinical and radiological data of children with severe mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(SMPP)who underwent nucleic acid testing or bronchoalveolar lavage(BAL)were analyzed retrospectively.The data analysis were performed by using SPSS 27.0 software.The group comparison between simple SMPP and Co-SMPP children was conducted by using t-tests,Mann-Whitney U tests,or chi-square tests.Nomogram analysis was performed by using R software and rms packages.The predictive performance of the model was evaluated by using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results A total of 194 SMPP children were included in the study,including 136 cases(70.1％)with simple SMPP,58 cases(29.9％)with Co-SMPP.The fibrinogen and albumin levels were lower in Co-SMPP children[(3.53±0.85)g/L,41.00(39.03,43.68)g/L]than in simple SMPP children[(3.79±0.80)g/L,42.80(41.00,44.40)g/L],with P values of 0.047 and 0.036,respec-tively.The probability of bronchial stenosis and grid shadow were higher in Co-SMPP children than in simple SMPP children,and there were significant differences between the two groups(P＜0.001,P=0.010).The odds ratio of bronchial stenosis in predicting Co-SMPP children was 14.085.The clinical-radiological nomogram model had an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.840,with sensi-tivity and specificity of 0.756 and 0.848,respectively.Conclusion The nomogram model based on clinical-radiological features can effectively predict Co-SMPP.

Objective:To investigate the training mode of outstanding talents in medical imaging in the context of "new medicine".Methods:Aiming at the 138 undergraduate students of medical imaging in the class of 2019, this study proposed a new model of "1+Medicine+X" based on "emphasis on ideology and politics", "strengthening practice", and "interdisciplinary training", which targeted the problems in the traditional teaching process, and the methods such as self-made course satisfaction questionnaires and achievements data collection were used to evaluate the effectiveness of teaching reform.Results:Through five years of reform practice, landmark accomplishments had been achieved in the construction of majors and courses (national and provincial first-class undergraduate majors), with significant improvements in the comprehensive ability and teaching satisfaction of students (process evaluation increased to 50.00%, teaching satisfaction increased to 96.20%), and the teaching reform had been widely recognized by the society.Conclusions:The "1+Medicine+X" model can effectively improve the training quality of medical imaging talents and thus provides a new paradigm for the disciplinary development of imaging and the cultivation of outstanding talents in the context of new medicine.

OBJECTIVE:Anterior cervical decompression and fusion is a classic surgical method for the treatment of degenerative cervical spondylosis.The use of nail plates increases the fusion rate and stability and indirectly leads to adjacent vertebral degeneration and postoperative dysphagia.In this paper,the clinical results and complications of ROI-CTM self-locking system and traditional cage combined with screw-plate internal fixation in the treatment of degenerative cervical spondylosis were compared by meta-analysis to provide evidence-based support for the selection of internal fixation methods in anterior cervical decompression and fusion. METHODS:CNKI,WanFang,VIP,PubMed,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,and Embase databases were searched for Chinese and English literature on the application of ROI-CTM self-locking system and fusion cage combined with screw plate internal fixation in the treatment of degenerative cervical spondylosis.The retrieval time range was from inception to July 2023.Two researchers selected the literature strictly according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.The Cochrane bias risk tool was used to evaluate the quality of randomized controlled trials.Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to assess the quality of cohort studies.Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software.Outcome indicators included operation time,intraoperative blood loss,Japanese Orthopaedic Association score,Neck Disability Index,C2-C7 Cobb angle,fusion rate,incidence of adjacent vertebral degeneration,cage subsidence rate,and incidence of dysphagia. RESULTS:Thirteen articles were included,including eleven retrospective cohort studies and two randomized controlled trials,with 1 136 patients,569 in the ROI-C group,and 567 in the cage combined with the nail plate group.Meta-analysis results showed that the operation time(MD=-15.52,95%CI:-18.62 to-12.42,P<0.000 01)and intraoperative blood loss(MD=-24.53,95%CI:-32.46 to-16.61,P<0.000 01)in the ROI-C group and the fusion device combined with nail plate group.Postoperative adjacent segment degeneration rate(RR=0.40,95%CI:0.27-0.60,P<0.000 01)and postoperative total dysphagia rate(RR=0.18,95%CI:0.13-0.26),P<0.000 01)were statistically different.The two groups had no significant difference in Japanese Orthopaedic Association score,Neck Disability Index,C2-C7 Cobb angle,fusion rate,or cage subsidence rate(P≥0.05). CONCLUSION:Applying an ROI-CTM self-locking system and traditional cage combined with plate internal fixation in anterior cervical decompression and fusion can achieve satisfactory clinical results in treating degenerative cervical spondylosis.The operation of the ROI-CTM self-locking system is more straightforward.Compared with a cage combined with plate internal fixation,the ROI-CTM self-locking system can significantly reduce the operation time and intraoperative blood loss and has obvious advantages in reducing the incidence of postoperative dysphagia and adjacent segment degeneration.The ROI-CTM self-locking system is recommended for patients with skip cervical spondylosis and adjacent vertebral disease.However,given its possible high settlement rate,using a fusion cage combined with screw-plate internal fixation is still recommended for patients with degenerative cervical spondylosis with multiple segments and high-risk factors of fusion cage settlement,such as osteoporosis and vertebral endplate damage.

Objective:To explore the changes of brain excitation/inhibition balance and gray matter volume (GMV) and their correlations with clinical features in benign childhood epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (BECTS).Methods:A cross-sectional study was performed; 83 BECTS children enrolled from Department of Diagnostic Radiology, Jinling Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of Medical School, Nanjing University from January 2015 to January 2024 were selected as BECTS group. During the same period, 101 age- and gender-matched healthy children were recruited as healthy control group through advertisements in local primary schools. Data of conventional MRI and resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) of the two groups were collected. Whole brain GMV was analyzed by voxel-based morphometry (VBM), and Hurst index was calculated based on time series data of blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) signal of rs-fMRI. Correlations of GMV and Hurst index with disease duration and onset age in children with BECTS were explored by Pearson correlation analysis.Results:Compared with the healthy control group, the BECTS group had significantly increased GMV and decreased Hurst index in the bilateral Rolandic region ( P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that in the BECTS group, GMV in bilateral Rolandic region was negatively correlated with onset age ( r=-0.267, P=0.015) and positively correlated with disease course ( r=0.267, P=0.015); Hurst index in bilateral Rolandic region was positively correlated with onset age ( r=0.323, P=0.003) and negatively correlated with disease course ( r=-0.240, P=0.029); Hurst index was negatively correlated with GMV in bilateral Rolandic region ( r=-0.328, P=0.003). Conclusion:BECTS children have excitation/inhibition imbalance in epilepsy-related regions and cortical structural delay, and both of them are related to onset age and disease course.

Objective To explore the risk factors of respiratory failure(RF)in patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae pneumonia(KPN).Methods A total of 79 KPN patients admitted to Jilin Provincial People's Hospital from July 2023 to July 2024 were selected as subjects.Patients were divided into RF group(n=42)and non-RF group(n=37)based on RF comorbidity status.Independent risk factors for RF comorbidity were identified through univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression,with model predictive performance evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results Compared to non-RF group,serum procalcitonin(PCT)levels were higher and serum albumin(ALB)and oxygenation index were lower in RF group(P＜0.05).Univariate analysis identified age,bedridden status,number of comorbidities,PCT,oxygenation index,ALB,multi-lobar infiltration,and mechanical ventilation as significant predictors of RF development in KPN patients.Multivariate Logistic analysis showed that elevated PCT levels,decreased oxygenation index,and reduced ALB were independent risk factors for RF in KPN patients,with area under the ROC curve of predictive model being 0.884.Conclusion When blood PCT is elevated,blood ALB is reduced,and the oxygenation index is decreased,the likelihood of RF in KPN patients is significantly increased.

Grounded in the Healthy China strategy,it employs integrated healthcare service theory,collaborative governance theory,and symbiosis theory to systematically analyze the conceptual connotation of medical-preventive integration within county-level medical communities and clarify its seven-dimensional framework of medical-preventive integration.These dimensions encompass resource integration,management integration,information integration,team integration,service integration,assessment integration,and cultural integration.The study delineates its three-phase dynamic evolution characterized by"interaction,coordination,and symbiosis"and outlines future development paths:constructing an intelligent integrated platform,delivering continuous services across the prevention-treatment-rehabilitation continuum,and fostering a multi-stakeholder collaborative governance framework.The findings provide both theoretical foundations and policy recommendations to support the high-quality development of medical-preventive integration in county-level medical communities.

Objective:To evaluate the impact of implementing a regional hierarchical medical management model based on the medical internet of things (medical IoT) on the frequency of emergency department visits and hospitalizations, as well as related medical expenses, in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods:This retrospective study included COPD patients enrolled in the regional hierarchical medical management system based on Medical IoT across 21 community health service centers in Songjiang District, Shanghai, between July 2017 and May 2018. Utilizing patient data from the year prior to enrollment as the baseline, changes in the number of emergency visits, hospitalizations, and associated medical costs during the first and second years of management were compared. Changes for patients receiving drug treatment were also analyzed.Results:A total of 973 COPD patients were enrolled. The mean age was 75.2±17.0 years, and 64.34% (626/973) were male. Compared to baseline, all COPD patients in the first year of management showed significant reductions: emergency visits decreased by 33.67%, total emergency costs by 45.60%, hospitalizations by 27.15%, and total hospitalization costs by 25.42%. In the second year, reductions were: emergency visits by 28.08%, total emergency costs by 36.10%, hospitalizations by 35.26%, and total hospitalization costs by 18.13% (all P<0.05). Among patients receiving drug therapy, reductions in the first year were: emergency visits by 39.66%, total emergency costs by 47.54%, hospitalizations by 25.19%, and total hospitalization costs by 28.40%. In the second year, reductions were: emergency visits by 46.98%, total emergency costs by 45.99%, hospitalizations by 41.98%, and total hospitalization costs by 24.94% (all P<0.05). No significant differences were observed before and after management for patients without drug treatment. Conclusion:The implementation of the regional hierarchical medical management model based on Medical IoT significantly reduced the frequency of emergency visits and hospitalizations, as well as related costs, for COPD patients.

There was no significant difference in any other evaluation indices ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Both IMPT and VMAT can meet the clinical requirements of radiotherapy plans following breast-conserving surgery for bilateral breast cancer. IMPT has apparent advantages over VMAT in protecting organs at risk.
