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 evaluate the clinical effect of different types of aortic root replacement in adolescent patients with aortic root aneurysm by analyzing the perioperative and follow-up conditions of surgical treatment for adolescent aortic root aneurysm.Methods:The clinical data of patients aged ≤18 years who were admitted to the Beijing Anzhen Hospital from November 2012 to February 2025, diagnosed with aortic root aneurysm by ultrasound or aortic computed tomography angiography (CTA) and requiring surgical intervention, were collected retrospectively. They were divided into the valve-sparing aortic root replacement group (David operation group) and the aortic root replacement group (Bentall operation group) according to the surgical method. The perioperative results and long-term follow-up results of the two groups were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were drawn to compare the reoperation intervention rate between the two groups.Results:A total of 25 patients were included in this study, including 17 in the Bentall group and 8 in the David group. There were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, blood routine, liver and kidney function, coagulation function, and electrolyte internal environment between the two groups (all P>0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in operation time and intensive care unit stay between the two groups (all P>0.05). Compared with the Bentall operation group, the intraoperative blood loss in the David operation group was more ( P<0.05). During the follow-up, no reoperation occurred in the Bentall operation group, while 3 patients in the David operation group had long-term re-intervention. The long-term reoperation intervention rate in the David operation group was higher than that in the Bentall group ( P=0.042), but there was no statistically significant difference in the aortic valve-related surgical intervention rate between the two groups ( P=0.15). Conclusions:For adolescent patients with aortic root aneurysm, although David operation may face long-term reoperation intervention, this intervention may not be due to the difference in surgical methods. Both Bentall operation and David operation are safe and reliable, with good perioperative results and stable medium and long-term prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the dynamic changes of plasma high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) and its correlation with functional outcome and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) after endovascular treatment (EVT) in patients with acute large vessel occlusion stroke (ALVOS).Methods:Patients with ALVOS admitted to the Department of Neurology, Zengcheng District, Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University from June 2021 to April 2023 were included retrospectively. Plasma HMGB1 before EVT and at 6, 24, and 48 hours after procedure was detected, and the dynamic changes of plasma HMGB1 were compared and analyzed. The primary endpoint was the functional outcome evaluated using the modified Rankin Scale at 90 days of onset. A score of 0-2 was defined as good outcome and >2 was defined as poor outcome. The secondary endpoint was sICH, which was defined as the occurrence of hemorrhagic infarction after EVT and an increase of ≥4 in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score from baseline. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the predictive value of HMGB1 for poor outcome and sICH. Results:A total of 73 patients with ALVOS received EVT were included. There were 54 males (74.0%), aged 62±12 years. The median time from onset to door was 90 minutes (interquartile range, 40-180 minutes), and the median time from onset to femoral artery puncture was 181 minutes (interquartile range, 140-280 minutes). Twenty-nine patients (39.7%) underwent bridging intravenous thrombolysis (IVT). At 90 days after onset, 37 patients (50.7%) had poor outcome, and 12 (16.4%) died during follow-up. Eleven patients (15.1%) developed sICH. After EVT, plasma HMGB1 showed a temporal increase, reaching its peak at 48 hours (median, 102.57 μg/L). Subgroup analysis showed that HMGB1 in the bridging IVT group at 6 hours ( P<0.05) and 24 hours ( P<0.05) after procedure were significantly higher than that at baseline. The non-bridging IVT group showed a significant increase at 6 hours after procedure ( P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in HMGB1 between the bridging IVT group and the non-bridging IVT group at the same time point. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for age, ischemic heart disease, triglycerides, uric acid, baseline NIHSS score, and sICH, the third quartile (adjusted odds ratio 7.087, 95% confidence interval 1.243-40.419; P=0.027) and fourth quartile (adjusted odds ratio 7.544, 95% confidence interval 1.260-45.172; P=0.027) of plasma HMGB1 were independent risk factors for poor outcome at 6 hours after procedure. The postoperative plasma HMGB1 in the sICH group was significantly higher than that in the non-sICH group ( P<0.05), but multivariate analysis showed no independent correlation between plasma HMGB1 and sICH. Conclusion:The elevation of plasma HMGB1 in patients with ALVOS at 6 hours after EVT is independently associated with poor outcome at 90 days after onset, but not with sICH.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of mild hypothermia arch-clamping technique in the surgical treatment of DeBakey Type Ⅰ aortic dissection.Methods:From December 2019 to November 2023, a total of 97 patients with DeBakey type Ⅰ aortic dissection who underwent arch-clamping technique in Beijing Anzhen Hospital were prospectively enrolled. The patients were divided into mild hypothermia group and moderate hypothermia group according to the lowest rectal temperature during the circulatory arrest period. The perioperative data of the two groups were compared, and complex adverse outcomes consisting of 30-day death, stroke, paraplegia and CRRT were used as the primary endpoint. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine the predictors of clinical adverse outcomes. Survival analysis was evaluated by the Kaplan- Meier method. Results:The overall incidence of complex adverse outcomes was 20.6%, 13.6% in the mild hypothermia group and 22.7% in the moderate hypothermia group( P=0.535), and the incidence of stroke was 4.6% and 6.7%( P=1.000), respectively. The cardiopulmonary bypass time and aortic-clamping time in the mild hypothermia group were significantly shortened (147.5 min vs. 163.0 min, P=0.032; 89 min vs. 99 min, P=0.042). There was no significant difference in long-term survival and reintervention between the two groups(91.9% vs. 89.3%, P=0.87; 9.1% vs. 5.3%, P=0.13). Conclusion:Mild hypothermia arch-clamping technique is a safe and effective method for the treatment of DeBakey type Ⅰ aortic dissection, with satisfactory short-term and long-term efficacy.

Immunotherapy has been widely used in cancer treatment in recent years and functions by stimulating the immune system to kill tumor cells. Radiation therapy (RT) uses radiation to induce DNA damage and kill tumor cells. However, this activates the body's immune system, promoting the release of tumor-related antigens from inactive dendritic cells, which stimulates the recurrence and metastasis of tumors in immune system tissues. The combination of RT and immunotherapy has been increasingly evaluated in recent years, with studies confirming the synergistic effect of the two antitumor therapies. Particularly, the combination of RT by dose adjustment with different immunotherapies has positive implications on antitumor immunity as well as disease prognosis compared with respective monotherapies. This review summarizes the current research status, progress, and prospects of RT combined with immunotherapy in cancer treatment. It additionally discusses the prevalent concerns regarding the dose, time window, and toxicity of this combination therapy.
