Objective:To investigate the impact of immunosuppressive therapy on the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection and cytokine levels in pediatric patients with kidney diseases.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 40 hospitalized pediatric patients who were diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection at the 900th Hospital of PLA Joint Logistic Support Force from December 2022 to February 2023. Based on their immunosuppressive status prior to SARS-CoV-2 infection, these patients were categorized into immunosuppressive group and non-immunosuppressive group. Independent sample t-tests, Mann-Whitney U tests, and χ2 test were employed to compare the clinical baseline characteristics and laboratory data, the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and the levels of cytokines between the 2 groups. Results:Among the 40 patients, 11 were in the immunosuppressive group (aged 13 (8, 14) years, 9 males and 2 females) and 29 in the non-immunosuppressive group (aged 2 (1, 4) years, 15 males and 14 females). In the immunosuppressive group, 2 were asymptomatic cases, 8 were mild cases, and 1 was moderate case, and there was no severe or critical cases. In the non-immunosuppressive group, 8 were mild cases, 5 were moderate, 15 were severe cases, 1 was critical case, and no asymptomatic cases. The underlying diseases in the immunosuppressive group included nephrotic syndrome (6 cases), IgA vasculitis nephritis (2 cases), lupus nephritis (1 case), post-renal transplantation (1 case), and renal failure (1 case), with a mean total immunosuppression score (TIS) of (3.6±1.4) points. In the non-immunosuppressive group, 2 patients had a history of epilepsy, and the remaining 27 cases had no underlying conditions, all with TIS scores of 0. Compared to the children in the non-immunosuppressive group, those in the immunosuppressive group were more likely to exhibit asymptomatic or mild infection, with lower risks of severe disease, cytokine storm, fever, and cough, but a higher risk of fatigue ( OR=1.22, 2.66, 0.48, 0.12, 0.12, 0.13, 1.22; 95% CI 0.93-1.62, 0.99-7.15, 0.33-0.70, 0.03-0.57, 0.03-0.57, 0.03-0.65, 0.93-1.62; all P<0.05). The levels of cytokine IL-6, interferon-α and interferon-γ in the immunosuppressive group were all lower than those in the non-immunosuppressive group ( Z=2.23, 2.51, 2.92, respectively; all P<0.05). Conclusion:Pediatric patients with kidney diseases receiving appropriate immunosuppressive therapy may mitigate the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection by suppressing the expression of cytokines.

Objective:This study aims to explore the predictive value of the ratio of caliceal pelvic height to infundibular length（CPH/IL）for the stone-free rate（SFR）in the treatment of lower calyx stones using flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy（FURL）combined with a distally bendable negative pressure suction sheath.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data and anatomical parameters of 312 patients with lower calyx stones or combined lower calyx stones admitted to the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from September 2022 to December 2023，all of whom were treated with FURL combined with a distally bendable negative pressure suction sheath. Stone clearance was defined as no residual stones or residual stones with a diameter of ≤3 mm without any symptoms. Patients were divided into the clearance group（265 cases，84.90%）and the non-clearance group（47 cases，15.10%）. There were no significant differences in gender（male/female：173/92 cases vs. 29/18 cases），age［（44.69 ± 13.14）years vs.（42.60 ± 10.93）years］，degree of hydronephrosis（no hydronephrosis/mild hydronephrosis/moderate to severe hydronephrosis：122/85/58 cases vs. 21/12/14 cases），side of lower calyx stones（left/right：157/108 cases vs. 31/16 cases），maximum diameter of stones（MDS）［（19.23 ± 6.41）mm vs.（17.77 ± 6.18）mm］，and CT value of stones［（993.46 ± 249.12）Hu vs.（1013.43 ± 300.90）Hu］between the two groups（ P > 0.05），indicating comparability between groups. There was no significant difference in the distance from the midpoint of the lower lip of the renal pelvis to the ureter at the lowest plane of the lower calyx（K-A line）between the clearance and non-clearance groups［（26.16 ± 5.18）mm vs.（25.70 ± 8.66）mm， P > 0.05］. However，significant differences were observed in the infundibulopelvic angle（IPA）［（53.97 ± 15.72）° vs.（37.43 ± 15.39）°］，infundibular length（IL）［（27.26 ± 5.11）mm vs.（33.04 ± 7.38）mm］，infundibular width（IW）［（8.27 ± 2.82）mm vs.（7.09 ± 3.20）mm］，caliceal pelvic height（CPH）［（19.96 ± 4.63）mm vs.（30.32 ± 7.56）mm］，ureter-lower calyx distance（ULD）［（23.00 ± 5.59）mm vs.（18.78 ± 6.31）mm］，CPH/IL ratio［（0.73 ± 0.11）vs.（0.92 ± 0.09）］，and curvature of the lower calyx of the renal pelvis［（0.06 ± 0.01）mm -1 vs.（0.08 ± 0.03）mm -1］between the two groups（ P <0.05）. Univariate and logistic multivariate regression analyses were used to identify the independent risk factors affecting the postoperative SFR of FURL-treated lower calyx stones and to assess the value of CPH/IL for SFR in the treatment of lower calyx stones using FURL combined with a distally bendable negative pressure suction sheath. A logistic multivariate regression model and a corresponding nomogram were constructed，and the predictive ability of the model for SFR was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic（ROC）curve. The calibration curve and the Hosmer -Lemeshow test were used to assess the consistency and accuracy of the model. The clinical utility of the model was evaluated using decision curve analysis（DCA）. Results:Univariate analysis revealed that seven anatomical parameters differed significantly between the clearance and non-clearance groups（all P < 0.05）：infundibulopelvic angle（IPA， OR = 0.27，95% CI 0.17-0.42， P < 0.01），infundibular length（IL， OR = 2.52，95% CI 1.83-3.47， P < 0.01），infundibular width（IW， OR = 0.64，95% CI 0.45-0.90， P = 0.011），caliceal pelvic height（CPH， OR = 5.78，95% CI 3.67-9.10， P < 0.01），ureter-lower calyx distance（ULD， OR = 0.43，95% CI 0.30-0.63， P < 0.01），CPH/IL ratio（ OR = 13.62，95% CI 6.86-27.03， P < 0.01），and curvature of the lower calyx of the renal pelvis（ O = 3.15，95% CI 2.08-4.78， P < 0.01）. Multivariate logistic regression further identified CPH/IL（ OR = 9.87，95% CI 4.92-19.79， P < 0.01），IPA（ OR = 0.41，95% CI 0.23-0.71， P = 0.001），and ULD（ OR = 0.50，95% CI 0.29-0.87， P = 0.014）as independent risk factors influencing the stone-free rate after flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy combined with a distally bendable negative-pressure suction sheath. The area under the ROC curve（AUC）of the univariate regression model showed that for IPA，the AUC was 0.788（95% CI 0.711-0.864）；for IL，it was 0.731（95% CI 0.643-0.819）；for ULD，it was 0.677（95% CI 0.586-0.767）；for CPH，it was 0.867（95% CI 0.804-0.929）；for IW，it was 0.628（95% CI 0.535-0.721）；for CPH/IL，it was 0.906（95% CI 0.850-0.961）with an optimal cutoff value of 0.882，corresponding to a sensitivity of 83.02% and a specificity of 92.08%；and for curvature of the lower calyx of the renal pelvis，it was 0.744（95% CI 0.662-0.827）. The AUC of the multivariate regression model was 0.929（95% CI 0.884-0.974）with an optimal cutoff value of 0.364，corresponding to a sensitivity of 82.98% and a specificity of 95.09%. Calibration curves demonstrated close agreement between the predicted and actual stone-free rates after FURL（C-index = 0.921）. The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test indicated no significant discrepancy between predicted and observed probabilities（ P = 0.135，>0.05）. Decision-curve analysis further revealed that basing clinical decisions on the model ，s predicted probability yields a higher net clinical benefit than either withholding FURL for all patients or treating all patients regardless of risk，and it also outperforms strategies guided by any single independent predictor alone. Conclusions:IPA，IL，IW，CPH，ULD，CPH/IL ratio，and curvature of the lower calyx of the renal pelvis can all predict the postoperative SFR of FURL combined with a distally bendable negative pressure suction sheath for the treatment of lower calyx stones to varying degrees. Among them，CPH/IL has the highest predictive value. When CPH/IL >0.88，it may be difficult to use FURL to treat lower calyx stones.

Objective To construct a comprehensive evaluation model for physician promotion in tertiary hospitals,which is systematic,scientific and operational.Methods Based on the physician competency model,a multi-level evaluation index system was constructed through literature review,policy analysis,and Delphi method.A simulation assessment was conducted using the CRITIC-TOPSIS method on 22 clinical physicians from a tertiary general hospital in Sichuan Province.Results The final evaluation model,established after two rounds of Delphi consultation,consisted of 4 first-level indicators,10 second-level indicators and 33 third-level indicators.The expert authority coefficient was 0.776,and the Kendall's W coefficients for the two rounds were 0.386 and 0.348(P＜0.01),respectively.The weights for clinical practice,teaching,research,and ethical conduct were 49.44%,18.82%,20.13%,and 11.61%,respectively.Simulation score results show that,the average relative proximity values of case physicians to be promoted to senior,associate senior,and intermediate titles were 0.50,0.43,and 0.39,respectively.Conclusion The model demonstrates scientific validity and reliability for evaluating physician promotion to intermediate and senior professional titles.Five supporting recommendations are proposed:talent development,standard optimization,health information system management,communication and feedback mechanism,and performance enhancement.

Objective To investigate the correlation between plasma vitamin D levels and a novel inflam-matory marker,the systemic immune-inflammatory index(SII),in patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods This study adopted a cross-sectional design,in which patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University were enrolled as study participants.Data on demographic characteristics,medical history,physical examination findings,and laboratory test results were systematically collected.Participants were categorized into three groups based on their serum vitamin D levels:deficient,insuffi-cient,and sufficient.The relationship between vitamin D levels and the SII was evaluated using a multivariate linear regression model.Additionally,a restricted cubic spline model was employed to assess the nonlinear dose-response association between vitamin D levels and SII.Results This study enrolled a total of 5,716 patients with type 2 diabetes.A statistically significant difference in the SII was observed across groups with varying vitamin D levels(P<0.05),with the highest SII value found in the vitamin D-deficient group.Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that,after adjusting for potential confounding factors including gender,age,season of blood collection,body mass index,hypertension,dyslipidemia,and chronic kidney disease,vitamin D levels were negatively associ-ated with SII(β=-2.68,95%CI:-3.56 to-1.81,P<0.001).Compared with the vitamin D-deficient group,the vitamin D-sufficient group exhibited significantly lower SII levels(β=-78.42,95%CI:-137.90 to-18.93,P=0.01).Furthermore,the restricted cubic spline model indicated a nonlinear dose-response relationship between vita-min D levels and SII(P<0.001).Conclusion There is a significant inverse correlation between plasma vitamin D levels and the SII in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Objective:To investigate renal impairment and ferroptosis due to severe blast injuries and related mechanism.Methods:The goats were placed 3 meters away from the center of an 8 kg TNT-equivalent explosive to carry out blast injury experiments.The physical parameters of blast waves were measured,and the pathological severity of blast injuries was graded and scored to assess the severity of injuries.Vital signs,blood gas parameters,and renal function markers were measured before injury and at 1,3,6,and 24 hours after injury.Renal tissue samples were collected at 24 hours after injury to prepare tissue sections,which were used to perform HE staining and measure the changes in the content of Fe2+and the expression of the ferroptosis-related marker proteins xCT and GPX4 in renal tissue,and Prussian blue staining was performed for renal tissue sections to investigate the mechanism associated with renal impairment and ferroptosis of renal cells.Results:Severe blast injuries accounted for the highest proportion of 47.2%in experi-mental goats,while mild,moderate,severe,and extremely severe injuries accounted for 2.8%,36.1%,47.2%,and 13.9%,respectively,and the pathologic severity score of blast injury was 2.56±0.15.For the goats after blast injury,there were significant increases in heart rate(F=12.750,P<0.01)and respiratory rate(F=6.500,P<0.01)and significant reductions in anal temperature(F=3.496,P<0.05),partial pressure of blood oxygen(F=24.630,P<0.01),and blood oxygen saturation(F=18.560,P<0.01),as well as significant increases in the levels of blood uric acid(F=22.320,P<0.01),serum creatinine(F=15.350,P<0.01),and blood urea nitrogen(F=22.310,P<0.01).Compared with the control group,swelling of renal tubular epithelial cells and narrowing of tubular lumen were observed at 24 hours after blast injury,with a significant increase in the content of Fe2+in renal tissue(t=5.933,P<0.01),significant reductions in the relative expression protein levels of GPX4(t=7.924,P<0.01)and xCT(t=4.483,P<0.01)in renal tissue,and deposi-tion of a large amount of iron ions in renal tubular epithelial cells.Conclusion:Experimental goats placed 3 meters away from the cen-ter of an 8 kg TNT-equivalent explosive can cause severe blast inju-ries,resulting in the onset of hypoxia,renal impairment,and ferrop-tosis of renal tubular epithelial cells.

Objective:To investigate the impact of immunosuppressive therapy on the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection and cytokine levels in pediatric patients with kidney diseases.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 40 hospitalized pediatric patients who were diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection at the 900th Hospital of PLA Joint Logistic Support Force from December 2022 to February 2023. Based on their immunosuppressive status prior to SARS-CoV-2 infection, these patients were categorized into immunosuppressive group and non-immunosuppressive group. Independent sample t-tests, Mann-Whitney U tests, and χ2 test were employed to compare the clinical baseline characteristics and laboratory data, the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and the levels of cytokines between the 2 groups. Results:Among the 40 patients, 11 were in the immunosuppressive group (aged 13 (8, 14) years, 9 males and 2 females) and 29 in the non-immunosuppressive group (aged 2 (1, 4) years, 15 males and 14 females). In the immunosuppressive group, 2 were asymptomatic cases, 8 were mild cases, and 1 was moderate case, and there was no severe or critical cases. In the non-immunosuppressive group, 8 were mild cases, 5 were moderate, 15 were severe cases, 1 was critical case, and no asymptomatic cases. The underlying diseases in the immunosuppressive group included nephrotic syndrome (6 cases), IgA vasculitis nephritis (2 cases), lupus nephritis (1 case), post-renal transplantation (1 case), and renal failure (1 case), with a mean total immunosuppression score (TIS) of (3.6±1.4) points. In the non-immunosuppressive group, 2 patients had a history of epilepsy, and the remaining 27 cases had no underlying conditions, all with TIS scores of 0. Compared to the children in the non-immunosuppressive group, those in the immunosuppressive group were more likely to exhibit asymptomatic or mild infection, with lower risks of severe disease, cytokine storm, fever, and cough, but a higher risk of fatigue ( OR=1.22, 2.66, 0.48, 0.12, 0.12, 0.13, 1.22; 95% CI 0.93-1.62, 0.99-7.15, 0.33-0.70, 0.03-0.57, 0.03-0.57, 0.03-0.65, 0.93-1.62; all P<0.05). The levels of cytokine IL-6, interferon-α and interferon-γ in the immunosuppressive group were all lower than those in the non-immunosuppressive group ( Z=2.23, 2.51, 2.92, respectively; all P<0.05). Conclusion:Pediatric patients with kidney diseases receiving appropriate immunosuppressive therapy may mitigate the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection by suppressing the expression of cytokines.

Stone clearance was defined as no residual stones or residual stones with a diameter of ≤3 mm without any symptoms. Patients were divided into the clearance group（265 cases，84.90%）and the non-clearance group（47 cases，15.10%）. There were no significant differences in gender（male/female：173/92 cases vs. 29/18 cases），age［（44.69 ± 13.14）years vs.（42.60 ± 10.93）years］，degree of hydronephrosis（no hydronephrosis/mild hydronephrosis/moderate to severe hydronephrosis：122/85/58 cases vs. 21/12/14 cases），side of lower calyx stones（left/right：157/108 cases vs. 31/16 cases），maximum diameter of stones（MDS）［（19.23 ± 6.41）mm vs.（17.77 ± 6.18）mm］，and CT value of stones［（993.46 ± 249.12）Hu vs.（1013.43 ± 300.90）Hu］between the two groups（ P > 0.05），indicating comparability between groups. There was no significant difference in the distance from the midpoint of the lower lip of the renal pelvis to the ureter at the lowest plane of the lower calyx（K-A line）between the clearance and non-clearance groups［（26.16 ± 5.18）mm vs.（25.70 ± 8.66）mm， P > 0.05］. However，significant differences were observed in the infundibulopelvic angle（IPA）［（53.97 ± 15.72）° vs.（37.43 ± 15.39）°］，infundibular length（IL）［（27.26 ± 5.11）mm vs.（33.04 ± 7.38）mm］，infundibular width（IW）［（8.27 ± 2.82）mm vs.（7.09 ± 3.20）mm］，caliceal pelvic height（CPH）［（19.96 ± 4.63）mm vs.（30.32 ± 7.56）mm］，ureter-lower calyx distance（ULD）［（23.00 ± 5.59）mm vs.（18.78 ± 6.31）mm］，CPH/IL ratio［（0.73 ± 0.11）vs.（0.92 ± 0.09）］，and curvature of the lower calyx of the renal pelvis［（0.06 ± 0.01）mm -1 vs.（0.08 ± 0.03）mm -1］between the two groups（ P <0.05）.

Multivariate logistic regression further identified CPH/IL（ OR = 9.87，95% CI 4.92-19.79， P < 0.01），IPA（ OR = 0.41，95% CI 0.23-0.71， P = 0.001），and ULD（ OR = 0.50，95% CI 0.29-0.87， P = 0.014）as independent risk factors influencing the stone-free rate after flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy combined with a distally bendable negative-pressure suction sheath. The area under the ROC curve（AUC）of the univariate regression model showed that for IPA，the AUC was 0.788（95% CI 0.711-0.864）；for IL，it was 0.731（95% CI 0.643-0.819）；for ULD，it was 0.677（95% CI 0.586-0.767）；for CPH，it was 0.867（95% CI 0.804-0.929）；for IW，it was 0.628（95% CI 0.535-0.721）；for CPH/IL，it was 0.906（95% CI 0.850-0.961）with an optimal cutoff value of 0.882，corresponding to a sensitivity of 83.02% and a specificity of 92.08%；and for curvature of the lower calyx of the renal pelvis，it was 0.744（95% CI 0.662-0.827）.

Calibration curves demonstrated close agreement between the predicted and actual stone-free rates after FURL（C-index = 0.921）. The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test indicated no significant discrepancy between predicted and observed probabilities（ P = 0.135，>0.05）. Decision-curve analysis further revealed that basing clinical decisions on the model ，s predicted probability yields a higher net clinical benefit than either withholding FURL for all patients or treating all patients regardless of risk，and it also outperforms strategies guided by any single independent predictor alone. Conclusions:IPA，IL，IW，CPH，ULD，CPH/IL ratio，and curvature of the lower calyx of the renal pelvis can all predict the postoperative SFR of FURL combined with a distally bendable negative pressure suction sheath for the treatment of lower calyx stones to varying degrees. Among them，CPH/IL has the highest predictive value. When CPH/IL >0.88，it may be difficult to use FURL to treat lower calyx stones.

Objective:We aimed to develop a novel visualized model based on nomogram to predict postoperative overall survival.Methods:This was a multicenter, retrospective, observational cohort study, including participants with histologically confirmed gastric and colorectal cancer who underwent radical surgery from 11 medical centers in China from August 1, 2015 to June 30, 2018. Baseline characteristics, histopathological data and nutritional status, as assessed using Nutrition Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) score and the scored Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment, were collected. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression and Cox regression were used to identify variables to be included in the predictive model. Internal and external validations were performed.Results:There were 681 and 127 patients in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. A total of 188 deaths were observed over a median follow-up period of 59 (range: 58 to 60) months. Two independent predictors of NRS 2002 and Tumor-Node-Metastasis (TNM) stage were identified and incorporated into the prediction nomogram model together with the factor of age. The model's concordance index for 1-, 3- and 5-year overall survival was 0.696, 0.724, and 0.738 in the training cohort and 0.801, 0.812, and 0.793 in the validation cohort, respectively.Conclusions:In this study, a new nomogram prediction model based on NRS 2002 score was developed and validated for predicting the overall postoperative survival of patients with gastric colorectal cancer. This model has good differentiation, calibration and clinical practicability in predicting the long-term survival rate of patients with gastrointestinal cancer after radical surgery.
