Neurocritical care involves complex pathophysiological mechanisms, and its incidence is higher, injuries are more severe, and treatment is more challenging in high-altitude environments. This consensus, based on the latest domestic and international evidence-based medical data, establishes a standardized, goal-oriented framework for neurocritical care management applicable in high-altitude regions and nationwide. The consensus was developed following international standards for evidence quality assessment and underwent two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, resulting in 32 recommendation statements covering three parts: management systems, monitoring and assessment, and core strategies. Key updates include: advocating for the establishment of independent neurocritical care units and implementing precise tiered diagnosis and treatment based on the "Five Differences in Critical Care" concept; constructing a "trinity" multimodal brain monitoring system centered on cerebral blood flow, cerebral oxygenation, and brain function, emphasizing routine bedside transcranial Doppler ultrasound, cerebral oximetry, and continuous electroencephalography monitoring; shifting management strategies from mild hypothermia therapy to targeted temperature management, and defining the "446" target management pathway for the supercritical stage; emphasizing the assessment of static and dynamic cerebrovascular autoregulation functions through multimodal methods to achieve individualized optimal mean arterial pressure management; elevating cerebrospinal fluid management goals to the level of "glymphatic system" function maintenance; implementing a multidisciplinary collaborative, whole-process management model focusing on patients' long-term neurological functional outcomes; de-escalation criteria include multidimensional indicators such as recovery of brain structure, restoration of cerebrovascular autoregulation, improvement in cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, and reduction in biomarker levels; and integrating cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence into post-critical care management and rehabilitation planning. This consensus systematically integrates the entire process of neurocritical care management, reflecting the modern connotation of goal-oriented, dynamic, and multimodal integration in neurocritical care medicine. It aims to adapt to new trends such as deepening understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms, the integration of medicine and engineering, and the empowerment of artificial intelligence, thereby further advancing the discipline of critical care medicine.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of Yijing decoction to inhibit oxidative stress induced by chronic iron overload and improve ovarian reserve hypofunction in mice. MethodsSeventy-two female C57BL/6J mice with normal estrous cycles were randomly divided into six groups （n=12 per group）：blank group，model group，Yijing decoction（YJD） low-dose group，medium-dose group，high-dose group，and dehydroepiandrosterone （DHEA） group. Mice in the blank group received intraperitoneal injections of normal saline，while those in all other groups were administered iron dextran （Sigma-Aldrich） at a dose of 0.5 g·kg^-1 once weekly for 8 weeks to establish a chronic iron overload model. Following the final injection，interventions were initiated and continued for 4 weeks. The low，medium，and high dose groups of YJD received oral gavage of Yijing decoction aqueous solution at doses of 18.165， 36.33，and 72.66 g·kg^-1·d^-1，respectively. The DHEA group received DHEA aqueous solution at 10.812 5 mg·kg^-1·d^-1. The blank and model groups received an equivalent volume of distilled water by gavage once daily. Body weight was recorded weekly，and food intake was monitored throughout the treatment period. Vaginal smears were collected daily and stained with hematoxylin-eosin （HE） to assess estrous cycle regularity. At the end of the experiment，mice were euthanized，and bilateral ovaries and uteri were rapidly excised and weighed to calculate ovarian and uterine indices （mg·g^-1）. Ovarian tissues were fixed，embedded，and sectioned for hematoxylin and eosin （HE） staining to evaluate histopathological changes. Iron deposition in ovarian tissue was visualized using Prussian blue staining. Serum levels of follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH），luteinizing hormone （LH），estradiol （E₂），and anti-Müllerian hormone （AMH） were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Malondialdehyde （MDA） content and superoxide dismutase （SOD） activity in ovarian homogenates were determined using commercial biochemical assay kits. Reactive oxygen species （ROS） levels in ovarian tissue were assessed by ROS fluorescence staining on frozen sections. Mitochondrial ultrastructure in ovarian tissue was examined by transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. Total RNA was extracted from ovarian tissue for real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） to quantify mRNA expression of ferritin heavy chain 1 （Fth1），ferritin light chain （Ftl），transferrin （Tf），transferrin receptor 1 （Tfr1），catalase （Cat），and glutathione peroxidase 1 （GPX1）. Protein expression levels of Fth1，Ftl，Tf，Tfr1，and glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4） were analyzed by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the blank group，mice in the model group exhibited significantly reduced body weight and severe estrous cycle disruption （P<0.01），a markedly increased uterine index （P<0.01），and a significantly decreased ovarian index （P<0.01）. The number of antral follicles was significantly reduced，while atretic follicles were markedly increased，accompanied by pronounced iron deposition in the ovarian stroma. Serum levels of AMH and E₂，as well as ovarian SOD activity，protein and mRNA expression of Tf and Tfr1，and mRNA levels of GPX1 and Cat were all significantly downregulated （P<0.05，P<0.01）. Conversely，serum FSH and LH levels，MDA content，protein and mRNA expression of Fth1 and Ftl，and ROS fluorescence intensity were significantly elevated （P<0.05，P<0.01），along with a marked decrease in GPX4 protein expression （P<0.01）. TEM revealed an increased number of damaged mitochondria in ovarian tissue，characterized by loss or disappearance of mitochondrial cristae. Compared with the model group，treatment with low，medium，and high doses of YJD and DHEA significantly improved body weight and ameliorated estrous cycle irregularities （P<0.05，P<0.01），decreased the uterine index （P<0.05），and increased the ovarian index （P<0.05，P<0.01）. These groups also showed increased numbers of antral follicles，reduced atretic follicles，and significantly diminished iron deposition in the ovarian stroma. Serum AMH and E₂ levels，ovarian SOD activity，protein and mRNA expression of Tf and Tfr1，and mRNA levels of GPX1 and Cat were all significantly upregulated （P<0.05，P<0.01）. In contrast，serum FSH and LH levels，MDA content，protein and mRNA expression of Fth1 and Ftl，and ROS fluorescence intensity were significantly reduced （P<0.05，P<0.01），while GPX4 protein expression was markedly increased （P<0.01）. Moreover，mitochondrial damage was alleviated，and mitochondrial ultrastructure was notably restored in ovarian tissue. ConclusionYijing decoction ameliorates ovarian reserve function in mice with chronic iron overload by upregulating the expression of Tf，Tfr1，and GPX4，downregulating the expression of Ft，Fth1，and Ftl，thereby alleviating systemic iron metabolism disorders，reducing oxidative stress in ovarian tissue，and restoring mitochondrial morphology and structure.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and mechanism of Yijingtang （YJT） in treating diminished ovarian reserve （DOR） in rats by regulating the Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）/myeloid differentiation factor 88 （MyD88）/nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB） signaling pathway. MethodsFifty female SD rats with normal estrous cycles were randomly allocated into blank， model， low- and high-dose （12.579 and 25.158 g·kg^-1， respectively） YJT， and dehydroepiandrosterone （7.487 5 mg·kg^-1） groups， with 10 rats in each group. The rats in other groups except the blank group were administrated with the tripterygium glycosides tablet suspension （5 mg·kg^-1） by gavage for 14 days for the modeling of DOR. The rats in the drug treatment groups were administrated with corresponding drugs by gavage from day 15 for 30 consecutive days， and those in the blank and model groups received equal volumes of distilled water. The vaginal exfoliated cell smears were observed to assess the changes in the estrous cycle. The wet weight of bilateral ovaries was weighed for calculation of the ovarian index. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was performed to observe the histopathological changes in the ovaries and the proportions of follicles at various levels were calculated. The serum levels of sex hormones ［follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）， luteinizing hormone （LH）， estradiol （E₂）， and anti-Müllerian hormone （AMH）］ and inflammatory factors ［tumor necrosis factor-alpha （TNF-α）， interleukin-1beta （IL-1β）， and interleukin-10 （IL-10）］ were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction（Real-time PCR） was conducted to determine the mRNA levels of TLR4， MyD88， NF-κB profilin α （IκBα）， NF-κB and inflammatory factors in the ovarian tissue. Western blot was employed to measure the protein levels of factors related to the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway in the ovarian tissue. Immunofluorescence （IF） was used to detect the nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 in the ovarian tissue. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group showed disturbed estrous cycles， increased inflammatory infiltration in the ovarian tissue， decreases in ovarian index and proportion of presinusoidal follicles， and an increase in the proportion of atretic follicles （P<0.05， P<0.01）. In addition， the model group showed elevated serum levels of FSH， LH， TNF-α， and IL-1β， up-regulated mRNA levels of TLR4， MyD88， IκBα， NF-κB， TNF-α， and IL-1β and protein levels of TLR4， MyD88， p-IκBα， and p-NF-κB p65 （P<0.01）， lowered serum levels of AMH， E₂， and IL-10， down-regulated mRNA level of IL-10 （P<0.01）， and massive nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 in the ovarian tissue. Compared with the model group， dehydroepiandrosterone and low and high doses of YJT restored the disturbed estrous cycle， reduced inflammatory infiltration in the ovarian tissue， increased the ovarian index （P<0.01）， and changed the follicular composition ratio （P<0.01）. Furthermore， the drugs lowered the serum levels of FSH， LH， TNF-α， and IL-1β， down-regulated the mRNA levels of TLR4， MyD88， IκBα， NF-κB， TNF-α， and IL-1β and the protein levels of TLR4， MyD88， p-IκBα， and p-NF-κB p65 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， raised the serum levels of AMH， E₂， and IL-10， up-regulated the mRNA level of IL-10 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and reduced the nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 in the ovarian tissue. ConclusionYJT may inhibit the release and expression of inflammatory factors by regulating the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway to attenuate the inflammatory responses in the ovarian tissue， thereby improving the ovarian function in DOR rats.

Objective: To explore the feasibility of synthetic magnetic resonance imaging (syMRI) combined with clinicopathological characteristics for the pre-treatment prediction of chemoradiotherapy (CRT) response in advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (ANPC). Materials and Methods: Patients with ANPC treated with CRT between September 2020 and June 2022 were retrospectively enrolled and categorized into response group (RG, n = 95) and non RGs (NRG, n = 32) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1. The quantitative parameters from pre-treatment syMRI (longitudinal [T1] and transverse [T2] relaxation times and proton density [PD]), diffusion-weighted imaging (apparent diffusion coefficient [ADC]), and clinicopathological characteristics were compared between RG and NRG. Logistic regression analysis was applied to identify parameters independently associated with CRT response and to construct a multivariable model. The areas under the receiveroperating characteristic curve (AUC) for various diagnostic approaches were compared using the DeLong test. Results: The T1, T2, and PD values in the NRG were significantly lower than those in the RG (all P < 0.05), whereas no significant difference was observed in the ADC values between these two groups. Clinicopathological characteristics (Epstein–Barr virus [EBV]-DNA level, lymph node extranodal extension, clinical stage, and Ki-67 expression) exhibited significant differences between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis showed that T1, PD, EBV-DNA level, clinical stage, and Ki-67 expression had significant independent relationships with CRT response (all P < 0.05). The multivariable model incorporating these five variables yielded AUC, sensitivity, and specificity values of 0.974, 93.8% (30/32), and 91.6% (87/95), respectively. Conclusion SyMRI may be used for the pretreatment prediction of CRT response in ANPC. The multivariable model incorporating syMRI quantitative parameters and clinicopathological characteristics, which were independently associated with CRT response, may be a new tool for the pretreatment prediction of CRT response.

Objective:To observe the effects of Bushen Antai Mixture on nuclear transcription factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1)/nuclear transcription factor-κB (NF-κB) in placental tissue of recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) mice.Methods:The CBA/J mice (female) and DBA/2 (male), CBA/J mice (female) and BALB/c (male) were caged at a ratio of 2 : 1 to establish RSA and normal pregnant mice, respectively. The next morning, the vaginal plug was found or the sperm was seen under the microscope as the successful modeling, which was counted as the first day of pregnancy. CBA/J×BALB/c mice were set as normal group, and the RSA model pregnant mice were divided into model group, progesterone group, and Bushen Antai Mixture low-, medium-, and high-dosage groups using a random number table method, with 6 mice in each group. The normal group and the model group were given distilled water by gavage. Bushen Antai Mixture low-, medium-, and high-dosage groups were given 3.9 g/kg, 11.7 g/kg and 23.4 g/kg Bushen Antai Mixture by gavage. The progesterone group was given progesterone capsule aqueous solution 26 mg/kg by gavage for 14 consecutive days. The embryo loss rate of mice was calculated. The pathological changes of placental tissues were observed by HE staining. The expressions of Nrf2, HO-1 and NF-κB protein and mRNA in placental tissues were detected by Western blot and RT-qPCR.Results:Compared with the model group, the embryo loss rate of mice in the Bushen Antai Mixture low-, medium-, and high-dosage groups and the progesterone group significantly decreased ( P<0.05, P<0.01); the pathological morphology of placental tissue improved; the expressions of Nrf2, HO-1 protein and mRNA in placental tissue significantly increased ( P<0.05, P<0.01), and the expression of NF-κB protein and mRNA significantly decreased ( P<0.05, P<0.01). Conclusion:Bushen Antai Mixture may may treat RSA by activating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, inhibiting NF - κB expression, and improving oxidative stress and inflammatory response in the placental tissue of RSA pregnant mice.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical effect of blood transfusion treatment in elderly critically ill patients under different blood transfusion initiation thresholds. Methods: A total of 144 elderly critically ill patients aged >70 years who underwent red blood cell transfusion in the elderly intensive care unit (ICU) of our hospital from January 2021 to January 2023 were included. According to different blood transfusion initiation thresholds, the patients were divided into restrictive blood transfusion group (n=77, Hb<70 g/L before blood transfusion) and liberal blood transfusion group (n=67, Hb 70-100 g/L before blood transfusion). Acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score, estimated mortality and general data collection were performed when the two groups of patients entered the ICU. Blood transfusion details of these patients in the ICU were collected and documented, including pre-transfusion Hb levels, volume and number of red blood cell transfusion, and post- transfusion Hb levels. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to match the baseline data of the two groups of patients, and the clinical outcomes were compared and analyzed after matching. Results: After PSM matching, 52 pairs of patients were successfully matched. The matched restrictive and liberal transfusion groups showed comparable characterists, including age, APACHE Ⅱ score, the number of cases with APACHE Ⅱ score >20, estimated mortality, incidence of comorbidities and primary diseases (P>0.05). The number of red blood cell transfusions and transfusion volume (U) in the ICU of the two groups were 7.77±4.73 vs 12.19±10.41, 11.64±7.65 vs 19.14±16.14 (all P<0.05), and the Hb levels (g/L) before and after red blood cell transfusion in the ICU was 59.92±5.98 vs 77.44±8.60,77.88±17.21 vs 87.56±15.23 (all P<0.05). In terms of clinical outcomes, there was no significant difference between the two groups (all P>0.05): ICU length of stay (d) 39.56±36.80 vs 40.10±49.29, three-week mortality rate (%) 21.2 vs 21.2, in-hospital mortality rate (%) 46.2 vs 53.9, mortality rate in subgroup with APACHE Ⅱ score ≤ 20 (%) 11.5 vs 1.9, the incidence of severe infection (%) 78.8 vs 73.1, the incidence of heart failure (%) 57.7 vs 44.2, and the incidence of pulmonary edema (%) 26.9 vs 19.2. Conclusion: Elderly ICU patients can tolerate lower blood transfusion thresholds. Therefore, the restrictive transfusion strategy can reduce the total amount of blood transfusion, save valuable blood resources, and achieve the same blood transfusion effect as the liberal transfusion strategy.

Objective To establish a stable,reliable,and clinically relevant porcine model of endotoxin-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).Methods Ten 8-month-old male Bama minipigs were deeply sedated,followed by invasive mechanical ventilation and electrocardiographic monitoring.Lipopolysaccharide(LPS)was intravenously pumped at 600 μg/(kg·h)for 3 hours,then maintained at 15 μg/(kg·h)thereafter.Dynamic monitoring was performed at five time points after LPS injection(LPS 0,1,3,5,and 8 h),including arterial blood gas analysis and chest computed tomography(CT)scans.Pathological examination of lung tissues obtained via bronchoscopic biopsy(HE staining and transmission electron microscopy)was conducted.These indicators were comprehensively used to evaluate the success of the animal model.Results At 5 hours after LPS administration,8 minipigs developed symptoms such as skin cyanosis,elevated body temperature,and respiratory distress.The oxygenation index decreased to<300 mmHg.Chest CT scans showed diffuse pulmonary infiltrates.Histopathology revealed alveolar edema and hyaline membrane formation.Transmission electron microscopy demonstrated disruption of pulmonary blood-air barrier,depletion of lamellar bodies in type Ⅱ pneumocytes,inflammatory cell infiltration,and exudation of plasma proteins and fibrin.Compared with LPS 0 h,at LPS 8 h,the oxygenation index and arterial blood pH were significantly decreased(P<0.001),while blood lactic acid and serum potassium were significantly increased(P<0.05);serum calcium and base excess were significantly decreased(P<0.05),and the lung injury score based on HE-stained lung sections was significantly increased(P<0.01).Conclusion The porcine ARDS model established by continuous LPS injection can dynamically simulate the pathophysiological characteristics and typical pathological manifestations of clinical septic ARDS,making it an effective tool to study the pathogenesis,prevention,and treatment strategies of septic ARDS.
