ObjectiveTo explore the coercive experience of involuntarily hospitalized adolescents with mental disorders during the admission process and hospitalization， providing references for formulating targeted nursing interventions. MethodsSemi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 involuntarily hospitalized adolescents with mental disorders selected from October to December 2023， and the themes were summarized and extracted by content analysis. ResultsA total of 3 themes and 10 sub-themes were extracted， which were used to elaborate the essential contents， causes， and improvement methods of coercive experience. These encompassed the multi-dimensional content of coercive experience （complex emotional experience， different physical sensations， and contradictory cognitive evaluation）， the multi-faceted causes of coercive experience （insufficient personal preparation， inadequate parental communication， and strict medical management system）， as well as the phased improvement of coercive experience （adequate communication before hospitalization， patient notification before coercive intervention， respecting for demands during coercive intervention， and comforting explanation after coercive intervention）. ConclusionThe essential content of the coercive experience of involuntarily hospitalized adolescents with mental disorders is complex and has various causes， which require cooperation from multiple parties to improve. Therefore， parents should respect the expression of their children’s self-will， and medical staff should respect patients’ autonomy， establishing a protection-constrained doctor-patient relationship model and collaborating to reduce the use of coercive interventions， to improve the overall medical satisfaction of adolescents with mental disorders.

Objective:To identify risk factors influencing clinical efficacy of endoscopic resection of small rectal neuroendocrine tumor (NETs).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with rectal NETs ≤10 mm who underwent endoscopic resection from 2013 to 2022. Patients were divided into the endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) group and the endoscopic mucosal resection with ligation (EMRL) group according to the treatment methods. After comparing the baseline data, propensity score matching was performed to compare the rates of R1 resection and adequacy of vertical margin distance.Results:A total of 186 patients were included in this study, with 139 receiving ESD and 47 receiving EMRL. The R1 resection rates were 12.2% (17/139) and 2.1% (1/47) in the ESD and EMRL group, respectively ( χ2=3.027, P=0.082). A significant difference in vertical margin adequacy was observed between the two groups [69.1% (96/139) VS 85.1% (40/47), χ2=4.598, P=0.032]. After propensity score matching, 46 pairs of cases were included, and there were no significant differences in the R1 resection rate [6.5% (3/46) VS 2.2% (1/46), χ2=0.261, P=0.609] and vertical margin adequacy [78.3% (36/46) VS 84.8% (39/46), χ2=0.649, P=0.420] between the two groups. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses revealed that operator experience and preoperative biopsy were independent risk factors for inadequate margin. Conclusion:Treatment method may not be the key factor affecting the distance of the vertical margin after endoscopic resection, but preoperative biopsy and operator experience have a significant impact on margins. Biopsy before endoscopic resection should be avoided, and less experienced doctors are recommended to use EMRL method for small NETs due to its ease of execution.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of a domestically developed robotic surgical system based on fiber-optic dedicated line communication in cross-regional urological telesurgery.Methods:This was multicenter，single-arm，retrospective case series study. The data of patients who underwent urological telesurgeries using the telesurgical system between January 2023 and December 2024 were analyzed. The cohort included 59 patients from seven hospitals across China. Among the patients，47 were male（79.7%）and 12 were female（20.3%），with a median age of 63.0（56.0，68.0）years and a body mass index of（24.7 ± 3.0）kg/m 2. Surgical procedures included 32 radical prostatectomies，24 partial nephrectomies，one radical nephrectomy，one adrenalectomy，and one ureteral reconstruction. The perioperative indicators，pathological results and postoperative complications were analyzed. The network monitoring data were collected，and the perioperative data of patients，remote system monitoring data and costs were compared between the two communication modes of optical transport network（OTN）and cloud-connect network（CCN）. Results:All 59 remote surgeries were successfully completed，with a mean operative time of（138.0 ± 54.0）minutes，median intraoperative blood loss of 50.0（30.0，100.0）ml and a postoperative hospital stay of 5.0（4.0，6.0）days. No cases required reoperation，Clavien-Dindo grade ≥3 complications，or readmission. The geographical distance between the primary and remote surgical sites ranged from 450 to 2 800 km. Network monitoring revealed increased bidirectional latency with distance increasing：the shortest latency time（Hefei-Hangzhou，450 km）was（16.59 ± 0.80）ms，while the longest（Harbin-Hangzhou，2 200 km）latency time was（53.31 ± 0.31）ms. Average frame loss per procedure was 0?1.27 frames. The results of subgroup analysis comparing OTN and CCN communication modes showed no significant differences in operative time［（130.7 ± 70.5）minutes vs.（142.1 ± 42.9）minutes， P = 0.442］，postoperative hospitalization［6.0（4.0，8.0）d vs. 5.0（4.0，6.0）d， P = 0.581］，or readmission rates（0 vs. 0）. However，CCN demonstrated significant cost advantages with 500 RMB per operation vs. 3 000 RMB per operation for OTN. Conclusions:Urological telesurgery using fiber-optic communication is feasible. The CCN mode，with its cost-effectiveness，excellent usability，and multi-point interconnection flexibility，is currently the preferred communication model for telesurgical applications.

Objective:To explore the value of an integrated modeling approach combining radiomics, dosiomics, and clinical factors in the prediction of the locoregional recurrence (LRR) risk after radiotherapy for patients with locoregionally advanced hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPSCC), in order to provide supplementary clinical evidence and decision-making basis for personalized treatment for this rare disease characterized by low incidence and poor prognosis.Methods:The clinical images and pathological data were retrospectively enrolled from 76 HPSCC patients treated at the Peking University Cancer Hospital from October 2011 to July 2020. The planning gross tumor volumes (PGTVs) were taken as the volumes of interest (VOIs). A total of 1 316 radiomic and dosiomic features were extracted from the planning CT and dose distribution images. After stability testing, feature dimensionality reduction was achieved using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and principal component analysis (PCA), with radiomic principal components (RPCs) and dosiomic principal components (DPCs) obtained, respectively. Using various combinations of RPCs, DPCs, and clinical variables as predictors, multivariate Cox regression models were developed after 5-fold cross-validation 100 times. The model performance was evaluated based on the Akaike information criterion (AIC) and concordance index (C-index).Results:Using two RPCs and three DPCs selected, dosiomics and radiomic Cox proportional hazards models were constructed, with C-index values of 0.781 and 0.778 and AIC values of 94.44 and 92.27, respectively. The result indicated that one RPC and three DPCs showed significant associations in Cox regression ( P < 0.05). Other prediction models were established by integrating the clinical data of patients with radiomic features, dosiomic features, or both. The prediction result demonstrated that compared to models based on individual factors or dual components, the multi-omics model yielded the highest prediction accuracy (C-index: 0.823, AIC: 84.94). Conclusions:Integrated models that combine radiomic features, dosiomic features, and clinical factors demonstrate great potential for enhancing the accuracy of LRR risk prediction. These models are expected to provide decision-making support for devising personalized treatment strategies and ultimately improve the prognosis of HPSCC patients.

OBJECTIVE: The self-defined multidisciplinary (endocrinology, vascular surgery, and orthopedics) scoring system (EMO scoring system for short) was designed. The feasibility of the EMO scoring system to guide the proximal tibial transverse transport (TTT) for diabetic foot wounds was preliminarily explored. METHODS: Based on the current commonly used clinical criteria for diabetic foot judgment, expert consensus, guidelines, and related research progress in the treatment of diabetic foot wounds, combined with clinical experience, a set of EMO scoring systems including endocrinology, vascular surgery, and orthopedics was formulated. The criteria for selecting conservative treatment, TTT after baseline improvement, and TTT based on scoring results was proposed. A total of 56 patients with diabetic foot wounds who were admitted between September 2017 and July 2022 and met the selection criteria was taken as the study subjects. Among them, 28 patients were treated with TTT and 28 patients were treated conservatively. The patients were graded according to the EMO scoring system, the corresponding treatment methods were selected, and the actual treatment methods and results of the patients were compared. RESULTS: The EMO scoring system was formed through literature retrieval and clinical experiences. The system included three criteria, namely endocrinology (E), macrovascular disease (M), and orthopedics (O), which were divided into multiple subtypes according to the relevant evaluation items, and finally the diabetic foot wound was divided into 8 types, which correspondingly selected TTT, TTT after baseline improvement, and conservative treatment. All 56 patients were followed up 12 months after treatment. Among them, the wound healing rate of the TTT group was 85.71% (24/28), which was higher than that of the conservative treatment group [53.57% (15/28)]. At 12 week after treatment, CT angiography showed that there were more small blood vessels in the wound and ipsilateral limb in TTT group than in the conservative treatment group. Based on the EMO scoring system, 14 of the 56 patients needed conservative treatment, 29 patients needed TTT, and 13 patients needed TTT after baseline improvement. Compared with the clinical data of the patients, the wound healing rate of the patients judged to be TTT was 75.86% (22/29), of which 21 cases were actually treated with TTT, and the healing rate was 90.48%; 8 patients were treated conservatively, and the healing rate was 37.50%. The wound healing rate of the patients judged to be conservative treatment was 92.86% (13/14), of which 1 case was actually treated with TTT, and the healing rate was 100%; 13 cases were treated conservatively, and the healing rate was 92.31%; 1 case experienced minor amputation. The wound healing rate of the patients judged to TTT after baseline improvement was only 30.77% (4/13), of which 6 cases were actually treated with TTT, and the healing rate was 66.67%; 7 cases were treated conservatively, and the healing rate was 0. CONCLUSION EMO scoring system can comprehensively evaluate the diabetic foot wounds, and make personalized judgment on whether TTT treatment is feasible, so as to improve the level of diabetic foot wound treatment and the prognosis of patients.

OBJECTIVE: To explore clinical effective and safety of subarachnoid block (SA), adductor canal block (ACB), and femoral nerve block (FNB) for early analgesia in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. METHODS: From September 2022 to October 2023, 90 patients with ACL rupture who received unilateral knee arthroscopic ACL reconstruction were selected and divided into ACB group, FNB group and SA group according to different anesthesia methods, with 30 patients in each group. There were 12 males and 18 females in ACB group, aged from 18 to 60 years old with an average of (33.3±13.8) years old;14 patients with gradeⅠand 16 patients with gradeⅡaccording to American Society of Aneshesiologists (ASA);13 patients on the left side and 17 patients on the right side. There were 15 males and 15 females in FNB group, aged from 18 to 60 years old with an average of (33.5±12.9) years old;15 patients with gradeⅠand 15 patients with gradeⅡ;16 patients on the left side and 14 patients on the right side. There were 16 males and 14 females in SA group, aged from 18 to 60 years old with an average of (31.0±12.6) years old;18 patients with grade I and 12 patients with gradeⅡ;17 patients on the left side and 13 patients on the right side. In ACB and FNB groups, the nerve block of ACB and FNB were performed under ultrasound guidance before SA anesthesia with 15 ml of 0.3% ropivacaine. Visual analogue scale (VAS) and quadriceps muscle strength at rest and passive movement were recorded and compared among 3 groups at 4, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 48 h after operation, as well as the dosage of tramadol injection analgesics, incidence of nausea and vomiting, nerve block time and other complications within 48 h after operation were compared. RESULTS: All patients were followed up for 11 to 20 (15.8±2.4) months. VAS at 4, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 48 h after operation of SA group was significantly higher than that of ACB and FNB groups, with statistical significance (P<0.05). There were no significant difference in VAS of rest and passive movement at 4, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 48 h after operation between ACB group and FNB group(P>0.05). At 4, 8, 12 and 16 h after operation, the quadriceps muscle strength in SA and ACB groups was higher than that in FNB group, with statistical significance (P<0.05);but there was no statistical significance in quadriceps muscle strength among three groups at 24 and 48 h after operation(P>0.05). One patient occurred nausea and vomiting in ACB group, 2 patients in FNB group and 5 patients in SA group, and no significant difference among three groups (χ²=0.352, P=0.171). The dosage of tramadol in SA group was (300.00±136.50) mg, which was higher than that in FNB group (168.33±73.70) mg and ACB(163.33±70.70) mg, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in nerve block time between ACB group and FNB group (t=1.964, P=0.054). There was no puncture site bleeding, local anesthesia drug poisoning and hematoma formation among three groups. CONCLUSION Both FNB and ACB could provide good early analgesia after ACL reconstruction, but ACB group has little effect on quadriceps muscle strength. Patients could have early postoperative functional training without pain, which is more beneficial to the recovery of knee joint function, and could reduce the use of analgesic drugs, without serious complications, which is safe and reliable method.

The aim of this investigation was to determine the optimal storage medium for testicular hypothermic transportation and identify the ideal concentration for the application of the protective agent 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA). Furthermore, this study aimed to explore the underlying mechanism of the protective effects of 5-ALA. First, we collected and stored mouse testicular fragments in different media, including Hank's balanced salt solution (HBSS; n = 5), Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium/Nutrient Mixture F-12 (DMEM/F12; n = 5), and alpha-minimum essential medium (αMEM; n = 5). Storage of testicular tissue in HBSS preserved the integrity of testicular morphology better than that in the DMEM/F12 group ( P < 0.05) and the αMEM group ( P < 0.01). Testicular fragments were subsequently placed in HBSS with various concentrations of 5-ALA (0 [control], 1 mmol l -1 , 2 mmol l -1 , and 5 mmol l -1 ) to determine the most effective concentration of 5-ALA. The 2 mmol l -1 5-ALA group ( n = 3) presented the highest positive rate of spermatogonial stem cells compared with those in the control, 1 mmol l -1 , and 5 mmol l -1 5-ALA groups. Finally, the tissue fragments were preserved in HBSS with control ( n = 3) and 2 mmol l -1 5-ALA ( n = 3) under low-temperature conditions. A comparative analysis was performed against fresh testes ( n = 3) to elucidate the underlying mechanism of 5-ALA. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) for WikiPathways revealed that the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway was downregulated in the 2 mmol l -1 5-ALA group compared with that in the control group (normalized enrichment score [NES] = -1.57, false discovery rate [FDR] = 0.229, and P = 0.019). In conclusion, these data suggest that using 2 mmol l -1 5-ALA in HBSS effectively protected the viability of spermatogonial stem cells upon hypothermic transportation.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of acupuncture therapy on dysphagia in patients with Parkinson's disease. METHODS: This randomized controlled study lasted 42 days and included 112 patients with Parkinson's disease and dysphagia. Participants were randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups (56 cases each group) using the completely randomized design, all under routine treatment. The experimental group was given acupuncture therapy. The primary outcome was Penetration-Aspiration Scale (PAS). The secondary outcomes were (1) Standardized Swallowing Assessment (SSA), and (2) nutritional status including body mass index (BMI), serum albumin, prealbumin, and hemoglobin. Adverse events were recorded as safety indicators. RESULTS: One participant quitted the study midway. There were no significant differences in baseline assessment (P>0.05). After treatment, both groups showed significant improvement in PAS, SSA and nutritional status except for BMI of the control group. There were significant differences between the two groups in the PAS for both paste and liquid, SSA (25.18±8.25 vs. 20.84±6.92), BMI (19.97±3.34 kg/m²vs. 21.26 ±2.38 kg/m²), serum albumin (35.16 ±5.29 g/L vs. 37.24 ±3.98 g/L), prealbumin (248.33 ±27.72 mg/L vs. 261.39 ±22.10 mg/L), hemoglobin (119.09±12.53 g/L vs. 126.67±13.97 g/L) (P<0.05). There were no severe adverse events during the study. CONCLUSION: The combination of routine treatment and acupuncture therapy can better improve dysphagia and nutritional status in patients with Parkinson's disease, than routine treatment solely.
