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.

Objective:To explore the value of deep learning (DL) models based on conventional MRI in differentiating orbital solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) from schwannomas.Methods:This was a case-control study. A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with pathologically confirmed orbital SFT and schwannoma admitted to Eye & ENT Hospital, Fudan University (institution 1) from December 2014 to January 2022 and Ninth People′s Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine (institution 2) from July 2015 to May 2022. A total of 140 patients were included, with 104 patients from institution 1 comprising the training cohort for building DL models and 36 patients from institution 2 comprising the external validation cohort for assessing model performance. Based on the preoperative cross-sectional fat-suppressed T 2WI and contrast-enhanced T 1WI (ceT 1WI), tumor contours were outlined on all tumor-containing slices. Six diagnostic models were constructed using residual networks (ResNet) and split-attention residual networks (ResNeSt) with 18 layers (ResNet-18 and ResNeSt-18), based solely on individual T 2WI and ceT 1WI, as well as a combination of both. A radiology resident and an attending radiologist independently reviewed conventional MRI images to determine the tumor type. The performance of the DL models and radiologists in differentiating orbital SFT from schwannoma in the external validation cohort was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves, and the areas under the curves (AUC) were compared using the DeLong test. Results:In the external validation cohort, the AUC (95% CI) of the ResNet-18 models based on T 2WI, ceT 1WI, and their combination were 0.861 (0.719-1), 0.896 (0.774-1), and 0.885 (0.755-1), respectively, while the AUC (95% CI) of the ResNeSt-18 models were 0.889 (0.748-1), 0.872 (0.726-1), and 0.910 (0.801-1), respectively. Among these, the ResNeSt-18 model based on the combined sequences achieved the best performance in differentiating the two tumors. The AUC (95% CI) for the individual interpretation of the radiology resident and attending radiologist were 0.729 (0.571-0.887) and 0.771 (0.618-0.923), respectively. The AUC of the ResNeSt-18 model based on the combined sequences was statistically significantly higher than those of the resident and attending radiologist ( Z=1.96, P=0.049; Z=2.00, P=0.045). Conclusion:The ResNeSt-18 model based on conventional MRI can effectively differentiate orbital SFT from schwannoma, demonstrating better performance than those of the radiology resident and the attending radiologist.

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.
