Objective:To investigate the impact of postoperative complications on adverse outcomes following curative-intent resection for gallbladder cancer (GBC).Methods:The multi-center real-world study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 629 patients with GBC, who were admitted to 14 medical centers including The First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from the national multicenter database of Biliary Surgery Group of Elite Group of Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery, from April 2020 to April 2024 were collected. There were 225 males and 404 females, aged (64±10)years. Patients underwent open curative-intent resection for GBC. Observation indicators: (1)surgery, postoperative complica-tions and adverse outcomes; (2) analysis of risk factors affecting postoperative adverse outcomes in patients and population attributable fraction (PAF). Missing data in predictor variables were addressed using multiple imputation with chained equations, while cases with missing outcome variables were addressed using the "multiple imputation then deletion (MID)" strategy. The severity of multicollinearity among independent variables was assessed using the variance inflation factor (VIF) test. Multivariable possion regression models with log link and robust error variance were construc-ted incorporating restricted cubic splines (3 knots) to address nonlinear relationships in continuous variables, calculating adjusted relative risk ( RR) with corresponding 95% confidence interval ( CI). Adjusted PAF was calculated for each imputed dataset using the AF package of R software, with subsequent pooling performed according to Rubin's rules. Results:(1) Surgery, postoperative complications and adverse outcomes. All 629 patients underwent curative-intent resection for GBC, of which 143 cases had postoperative complications, including 68 cases of intra-abdominal ascites, 39 cases of pulmonary infection, 21 cases of bile leakage, 12 cases of intra-abdominal hemorrhage, 11 cases of liver failure, 10 cases of pan-creatic fistula, 10 cases of wound infection, 10 cases of gastroparesis, 7 cases of cholangitis, 7 cases of sepsis. The same patient could have more than one kind of complication. Of 629 patients, there were 19 cases of postoperative 90-day death and 11 cases of missing data, 42 cases with post-operative 90-day reoperation and 7 cases with missing data, 44 cases with postoperative 90-day readmission and 3 cases with missing data, 155 cases with prolonged postoperative hospital stay and 3 cases with missing data. (2) Analysis of risk factors affecting the postoperative adverse outcomes in patients and PAF. Results of multivariate analysis showed that pulmonary infection and liver failure were independent risk factors for postoperative 90-day mortality ( RR=3.74, 12.15, 95% CI as 1.18-11.83, 1.98-74.48, P<0.05). Pulmonary infection demons-trated the highest PAF as 4.61% (95% CI as 3.94%-5.28%, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites, pulmonary infection, bile leakage, and intra-abdominal hemorrhage were independent risk factors for post-operative 90-day reoperation ( RR=4.80, 3.62, 3.46, 4.99, 95% CI as 2.49-9.26, 1.42-9.21, 1.34-8.92, 1.55-16.06, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites demonstrated the highest PAF as 8.65% (95% CI as 8.22%-9.08%, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites, bile leakage, and liver failure were independent risk factors for postoperative 90-day readmission ( RR=6.20, 3.33, 14.33, 95% CI as 3.21-11.95, 1.33-8.35, 3.72-55.28, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites demonstrated the highest PAF as 9.11% (95% CI as 8.85%-9.37%, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites, pulmonary infection, bile leakage, liver failure, and wound infection were independent risk factors for prolonged postoperative hospital stay ( RR=2.29, 2.21, 2.26, 2.14, 3.35, 95% CI as 1.63-3.23, 1.41-3.46, 1.32-3.86, 1.11-4.13, 1.70-6.60, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites demonstrated the highest PAF as 6.03% (95% CI as 5.71%-6.35%, P<0.05). Conclusion:Pulmonary infection is the most significant risk factor for postoperative 90-day mortality after curative-intent resection for GBC, while intra-abdominal ascites is the most significant risk factor for postoperative 90-day reoperation, postoperative 90-day readmission, and prolonged postoperative hospital stay.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of flight fatigue being detected via photoplethysmography (PPG) and regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO 2) in order to address the challenges posed by flight fatigue during prolonged or multiple consecutive flights. Methods:A total of 16 healthy male volunteers were enrolled. A wireless cerebral oximetry monitor headband was employed to collect PPG and rScO 2 data from the forehead while a multi-lead physiological data acquisition system was used concurrently to record three-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs). After 18 h of sleep deprivation, each volunteer performed a flight-simulating task, which was divided into 4 stages: the baseline period (T1), relaxation period (T2), early fatigue period (T3) and severe fatigue period (T4). Five-minute data was collected from each stage for analysis using AcqKnowledge 6.0. Heart rate (HR) and 3 HR variability (HRV) metrics, namely standard deviation of NN intervals (SDNN), root mean square of successive differences (RMSSD), and low frequency to high frequency power ratio (LF/HF), were computed independently from both ECG and PPG traces. The mean rScO 2 value for each stage was used to represent the cerebral oxygen saturation during that stage. The intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) was employed to assess the consistency of the measurements, and the differences in HR and HRV indicators of the volunteers in the 4 stages of the experiment were analyzed. Results:The HR measured by ECG and PPG was highly consistent across the 4 stages among the 14 volunteers ( ICC=0.951, 0.963, 0.962, 0.963, P=0.013, 0.011, 0.021, 0.015), so were SDNN, RMSSD and LF/HF values ( ICC=0.935-0.983, all P<0.05). HR values calculated with either method showed significant differences across the 4 stages in the 14 volunteers ( F=21.63, 20.52, P=0.007, 0.008). HR gradually declined from T1 to T4, and was significantly lower at T4 than at T1 ( P=0.011, 0.009). There were significant differences in SDNN ( F=22.31, 24.26, P=0.006, 0.003), RMSSD ( F=22.30, 22.26, P=0.006, 0.006), and LF/HF ( F=20.37, 25.13, P=0.009, 0.002) across the 4 stages among the 14 volunteers. SDNN and RMSSD kept increasing as fatigue was intensified, while LF/HF decreased correspondingly. Statistically significant differences were found in SDNN, RMSSD and LF/HF values between T4 and T1 (all P<0.01). rScO 2 measured during the flight-simulating trial also differed significantly across the 4 stages ( F=21.39, P=0.007). rScO? at both T3 and T4 was significantly lower than at T1 ( P=0.009, 0.007). Conclusions:PPG can replace ECG for monitoring HR and HRV indicators under flight fatigue. Furthermore, the combination of PPG with rScO 2 monitoring allows for earlier detection of flight fatigue. This study is expected to offer a user-friendly and non-invasive approach to management of pilot fatigue.

Diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, collectively referred to the " Three Highs, " represent increasingly prevalent metabolic risk factors in China. Many individuals experience all three conditions concurrently, significantly heightening the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Although the National Metabolic Management Center(MMC) has been established for over eight years and has its unique features, the awareness, treatment, and control rates of these diseases in China remain low, and the efficiency of community management is insufficient. According to the previous two editions of management guidelines and the most recent domestic and international diagnostic and treatment guidelines, this paper conducts an in-depth analysis of the operational experience and management strategies of the MMC. Its aim is to improve the efficiency of grassroots MMC mode management for " Three Highs" patients and ensure that patients receive more standardized management.

Primary aldosteronism(PA) is a common cause of secondary hypertension, with adrenal vein sampling(AVS)being the gold standard for etiological typing diagnosis. This retrospective study analyzed data from patients diagnosed with PA who underwent AVS or unilateral adrenalectomy at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital′s Endocrinology Department from July 2018 to August 2021. Using multivariate logistic regression analysis, factors associated with unilateral aldosterone hypersecretion were identified. Based on these factors, a predictive model for diagnosing unilateral primary aldosteronism(UPA)was established: age <40 years, plasma aldosterone concentration(PAC)>15 ng/dL, adrenal CT indicating an unilateral typical adenoma, and spontaneous hypokalemia. This predictive model could help 14% of PA patients avoid unnecessary AVS procedures.

Objective:To investigate the application value of donor liver autologous portal venous blood rinse in orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 35 pairs of donors and recipients who underwent OLT in the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China from May 2018 to June 2019 were collected. Of the 35 donors, there were 31 males and 4 females, aged (48±9)years. Of the 35 recipients, there were 25 males and 10 females, aged (47±9)years. Of the 35 recipients, 16 recipients undergoing donor liver autologous portal venous blood rinse were allocated into the portal vein group, and 19 recipients undergoing donor liver albumin water rinse were allocated into the albumin group. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations; (3) follow-up. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and compari-son between groups was analyzed using the t test. Measurement data of skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were descried as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the Fisher exact probability. Results:(1) Surgical situations. The anhepatic phase time and arterial blood Ca 2+ concentration within 5 minutes after reperfusion of the recipients were (52±12)minutes and (0.99±0.10)mmol/L in the portal vein group, versus (64±12)minutes and (1.05±0.07)mmol/L in the albumin group, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=2.94, 2.22, P<0.05). The mean arterial pressure, arterial blood K +concentration and arterial blood pH within 5 minutes after reperfusion of the recipients were (70±24)mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), (4.7±1.3)mmol/L and 7.27±0.06 in the portal vein group, versus (71±28)mmHg, (4.6±1.1)mmol/L and 7.30±0.07 in the albumin group, showing no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=0.14, 0.30, 1.22, P>0.05). (2) Post-operative situations. Cases with post-reperfusion syndrome (PRS), cases with severe PRS of cardiac arrest, cases with primary graft nonfunction of the recipients were 6, 0, 2 in the portal vein group, versus 8, 1, 1 in the albumin group, showing no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( P>0.05). Total bilirubin on postoperative day 7 of the recipients was (90±52)μmol/L in the portal vein group, versus (166±112)μmol/L in the albumin group, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( t=2.66, P<0.05). International normalized ratio on postoperative day 7, the highest alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase within 7 days after operation of the recipients were 2.1±2.0, (1 952±2 813)IU/L and (3 944±6 673)IU/L in the portal vein group, versus 1.8±0.6, (1 023±1 014) IU/L and (2 005±2 910)IU/L in the albumin group, showing no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=0.66, 1.23, 1.08, P>0.05). Recipients with hepatic artery complication and biliary complication were 1 and 2 in the portal vein group, versus 0 and 4 in the albumin group, showing no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( P>0.05). There were 3 cases and 2 cases died during the perioperative period in the portal vein group and the albumin group, respectively. (3) Follow-up. Of the 35 recipients, 30 recipients were followed up for 534(range, 28?776)days after operation. During the follow-up, there were 3 patients with postoperative complications in the portal vein group including 2 cases died and 1 case recovered after sympto-matic treatment. There were 5 patients with postoperative complications in the albumin group including 1 case died and 4 cases recovered after symptomatic treatment. Up to the follow-up date, 11 patients in the portal vein group and 16 patients in the albumin group were in good condition. Conclusion:Rinse of the donor liver with autologous portal venous blood during liver transplantation can shorten the time of anhepatic phase, without increasing the occurrence of post-reperfusion syndrome, ischemia re-perfusion injury and biliary tract complications.
