Objective To investigate the value of chest contrast-enhanced CT(C-CECT)combined with artificial intelligence iterative reconstruction(AIIR)for bronchial artery(BA)imaging.Methods Seventy patients who underwent C-CECT were prospectively enrolled.The images were reconstructed with AIIR(AIIR group)and hybrid iterative reconstruction(HIR,HIR group),respectively.The overall image quality,the traceability of BA,the sharpness of BA and the diagnostic confidence of abnormalities of BA were subjectively graded using a 5-point scale by two radiologists,respectively.The subjective scores and inter-observer agreement were compared between groups.The noise(SD)in reconstructed images of thoracic aorta,pulmonary trunk,BA and spinal erectors,the contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)of the above 3 arteries relative to spinal erectors,and the diameters of BA at the origin,bifurcation and pulmonary hilum were compared between groups.Results The scores of the overall image quality,the traceability of BA,the sharpness of BA and the diagnostic confidence of abnormalities of BA were all significantly higher in AIIR group than those in HIR group(all P＜0.001),all with good inter-observer agreement(Kappa=0.46-0.73).SD of the aorta,pulmonary artery trunk,BA and erector spinal muscle in AIIR group were lower than those in HIR group,while CNR of above 3 arteries were higher than those in HIR group(all P＜0.05).No significant difference of the diameter of BA at each position was found between groups(all P＞0.05),while the consistency of measurement of AIIR group was higher than that of HIR group(intra-class correlation coefficient:0.89-0.94 vs.0.63-0.78).Conclusion C-CECT combined with AIIR could significantly improve imaging quality and diagnostic confidence of BA.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Non-small cell lung cancer is one of the primary types of cancer that leads to brain metastases. Approximately 10% of patients with non-small cell lung cancer have brain metastases at the time of diagnosis, and 26%-53% of patients develop brain metastases during the progression of their disease. However, the underlying mechanisms of lung cancer brain metastasis have not been fully elucidated. With the continuous development of single-cell and spatial transcriptomics, the genomic and transcriptomic characteristics of lung cancer brain metastasis are gradually being revealed. In February 2025, the journal Nature Medicine published an article titled "Single-cell and spatial genomic landscape of non-small cell lung cancer brain metastases". This article aims to provide a brief interpretation of the paper for colleagues in research and clinical practice.

Objectives:To investigate the relationship between locations of ventricular septal perforation and 30-day prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by ventricular septal perforation.Methods:Clinical data of 150 acute myocardial infarction patients with ventricular septal perforation admitted to Fuwai Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from January 2009 to October 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.Kaplan-Meier method was used to compare the difference in 30-day survival rate among patients with different sites of ventricular septal perforation.The impact of locations of ventricular septal perforation on 30-day prognosis of acute myocardial infarction patients was evaluated by multivariate Cox regression analysis(forward stepwise).Results:In acute myocardial infarction patients,the occurrence of anterior ventricular septal perforation was higher than that of posterior ventricular septal perforation(79.5%vs.20.5%,P<0.001).In the anterior ventricular septal perforation patients,females were more common(50.0%vs.22.6%,P=0.006),the blood glucose level was higher([10.51±5.99]mmol/L vs.[8.02±2.81]mmol/L,P=0.026),the left ventricular end-diastolic diameter was smaller([50.7±6.1]mm vs.[55.1±5.0]mm,P<0.001),the ventricular septal aperture was also smaller([9.8±4.6]mm vs.[12.6±5.4]mm,P=0.004),30-day mortality was higher(55.8%vs.35.5%,P=0.043)compared with posterior ventricular septal perforation patients.Multivariate Cox regression analysis(forward stepwise)showed that no transthoracic surgery or transcatheter closure(HR=26.344,95%CI:8.261-84.009,P<0.001)and anterior ventricular septal perforation(HR=2.432,95%CI:1.281-4.619,P=0.007)were associated with increased risk of 30-day all-cause mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by ventricular septal perforation.Conclusions:In patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by ventricular septal perforation,the incidence of anterior ventricular septal perforation is higher than posterior ventricular septal perforation and the 30-day all-cause mortality of anterior ventricular septal perforation patients is also higher.No transthoracic surgery or transcatheter closure and anterior ventricular septal perforation are the independent influential factors of 30-day all-cause mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction and ventricular septal perforation.

Due to traditional professional divisions, the practice of endoscopy by gastro-intestinal surgeons in China remains controversial. However, with the evolution of treatment philo-sophies, medical technology, and equipment advancements, a trend of integration between tradi-tional surgery and endoscopy is emerging. Gastrointestinal surgeons performing endoscopy can maxi-mize patient benefits, and they naturally possess advantages in conducting endoscopic procedures. It is recommended to further establish entry thresholds for surgeons to perform endoscopy, provide standardized endoscopic training for surgeons, and coordinate efforts at the administrative depart-ment. With the support of artificial intelligence, more patients can receive minimally invasive, indivi-dualized, and precise treatments.

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.

Background Sleep disturbances in children and adolescents have become a global public health concern,with pronounced issues in the Western China.Despite this,research on the prevalence of insomnia and its influencing factors among children and adolescents in Chongqing is still lacking.Objective To understand the prevalence of insomnia and analyze its influencing factors among children and adolescents in Chongqing,so as to provide references for clinical interventions and preventive strategies of insomnia.Methods A stratified random sampling method was used to select 9 969 children and adolescents in Chongqing from November to December 2021.Insomnia Severity Index(ISI)and a self-designed questionnaire on awareness of core mental health knowledge were administered.Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influencing factors of insomnia in this population.Results A total of 3 578 children and adolescents(35.89％)were found to have insomnia symptoms.There were statistically significant differences in the detection of insomnia symptoms among gender,ethnicity,education level,domicile,only-child status,parental education level,introversion/extroversion,parental relationship,average monthly per capita income,family history of mental illness,medical insurance coverage,living situation and understanding of mental health knowledge(P<0.05 or 0.01).Binary Logistic regression analysis identified several risk factors for insomnia,including female gender(OR=1.301,95％CI:1.192～1.419),ethnic minority status(OR=1.163,95％CI:1.015～1.333),junior high school for education level(OR=1.985,95％CI:1.774～2.220),senior high school for education level(OR=3.085,95％CI:2.749～3.462),non-only-child status(OR=1.127,95％CI:1.013～1.253),degree of harmony between parents is not high or not harmonious[(OR=1.846,95％CI:1.669～2.041 for relatively harmonious;OR=2.524,95％CI:2.214～2.877 for generally harmonious;OR=2.452,95％CI:1.999～3.007 for not very harmonious;OR=2.926,95％CI:2.307～3.710 for very discordant)]and incomplete medical insurance coverage(OR=1.218,95％CI:1.093～1.358).Protective factors included an extroverted personality(OR=0.838,95％CI:0.766～0.917),absence of family history of mental illness(OR=0.719,95％CI:0.549～0.941),junior high school for mother's education level(OR=0.822,95％CI:0.734～0.920),senior high school or secondary specialized school for mother's education level(OR=0.862,95％CI:0.752～0.988),college and above for mother's education level(OR=0.748,95％CI:0.633～0.884)and knowledge of mental health(OR=0.854,95％CI:0.778～0.937).Conclusion The problem of insomnia among children and adolescents in Chongqing is quite serious.Risk factors for insomnia include female gender,ethnic minority status,higher education levels,being a non-only child,poor family relationships and incomplete medical insurance.Conversely,an extroverted personality,absence of family history of mental illness,higher maternal education and knowledge of mental health serve as protective factors against insomnia.
