Establishing a natural population prospective cohort represents a sophisticated systematic project that spans multiple disciplines and research directions, requiring comprehensive consideration of diverse factors. Both international and domestic practices have accumulated substantial experience and achievements in this field. These prospective cohorts are typically developed through collaborative efforts among research institutions, generating systematic insights into construction backgrounds, objectives, design frameworks, implementation strategies, and management protocols. This study conducts an in-depth investigation into the current status of natural population prospective cohort development globally and domestically, systematically summarizing progress in development history, current status, and research advancements. The findings aim to inform strategic planning in China’s related domains, thereby facilitating the advancement of natural population prospective cohort research.

Objective To study the efficacy and safety of flexible ureteroscopy holmium laser lithotripsy(FURS)in the treatment of urinary tract stones of different sizes and positions.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 121 patients with upper urinary tract stones from January 2021 to December 2023.According to the size of the stones,they were divided into the diameter ≤20 mm group(n=98)and the 20 mm＜diameter ≤40 mm group(n=23).According to the location of the stones,19 cases were divided into the renal pelvis stone group and 102 cases were non renal pelvis stones.The surgical related indicators and incidence of complications were compared between the groups.Result The operation time of the group with diameter ≤20 mm and the group with diameter 20 mm＜diameter ≤40 mm was(44.13±12.6)minutes and(57.52±20.98)minutes,respectively.The hospitalization periods were(4.55±1.54)days and(5.74±2.00)days,respectively.There were statistically significant differences between the two groups(P＜0.05).The stone clearance rates in the group with diameter ≤ 20 mum and the group with 20 mum＜diameter ≤ 40 mum were 84.69％and 78.26％,respectively.There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).The operation time of the subcalyx kidney stone group and the non-subcalyx kidney stone group was(44.05±11.08)minutes and(47.17±16.19)minutes respectively,the hospital stay was(4.74±1.52)days and(4.78±1.73)days respectively,and the ESWL selection rates after the operation were 5.26％and 10.78％respectively.The stone recurrence rates were 15.79％and 4.90％respectively,and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).The stone clearance rates in the subcalyx kidney stone group and the non-subcalyx kidney stone group were 63.16％and 87.25％,respectively.There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidences of urosepsis,fever,low back pain,hematuria and total complications between the 20 mm＜diameter ≤40 mm group and the diameter ≤20 mm group(P＞0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidences of urosepsis,fever,low back pain,hematuria and total complications between the non-inferior calyx stone group and the inferior calyx stone group(P＞0.05).Conclusion FURS treatment for upper urinary tract stones with a diameter of≤20 mm has shorter surgical and hospitalization times compared to patients with a diameter of≤40 mm.ESWL and lower stone recurrence rates are also preferred after surgery.FURS treatment for non lower renal calyx stones has a higher stone clearance rate compared to lower renal calyx stones.The safety of FURS treatment for upper urinary tract stones of different sizes and positions is equivalent.

Objective:To comprehensively evaluate the application of Common Data Model (CDM) of Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP) in China, and provide reference for the implementation of data standardization and evidence sharing in China.Methods:PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI, VIP, WanFang and SinoMed databases were used for literature retrieval to collect the research papers of OMOP CDM application for data standardization in China until March 15, 2023. The information about institutions, types and numbers of patients were extracted.Results:A total of 14 research papers, including 9 in English and 5 in Chinese, were selected. The research papers published since 2018 were collected, which focused on patients with hypertension, diabetes, and depression. A total of 12 institutions or platforms transformed data into OMOP CDM. Jiangsu Provincial People's Hospital was the first one to apply the CDM and demonstrated its feasibility in China. Additionally, the regional information system in Yinzhou District of Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, standardized the multi-dimensional data of patients with diabetes and hypertension. Based on this platform, a series of prediction models for complications in patients with diabetes were constructed. Another major database in Beijing Anding Hospital applied OMOP CDM to analyze the characteristics of patients with late-life depression and dementia.Conclusions:This study analyzed the application of OMOP CDM in China. Through in-depth analysis of specific cases, the study provided guidance for the future cross-regional evidence sharing and collaboration.

Objective To retrospectively review 19 cases of renal epithelioid angiomyolipoma(REAML)and to ex-plore the clinical characteristics and diagnostic methods in order to optimize diagnosis and clinical treatment.Methods Clinical data of 19 patients with REAML admitted to the hospital from June 2020 to March 2024 were re-viewed for clinical characteristics of the disease,surgical procedure and follow-up outcomes.Results All 19 pa-tients received successful laparoscopic surgery.Among them,16 cases received retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy and 3 cases received retroperitoneal laparoscopic radical nephrectomy.Post-operative pathological diag-noses indicated that all cases were classified as renal epithelioid angiomyolipoma.After 4-45 months of follow-up,no tumor recurrence or metastasis was observed.Conclusions Renal epithelioid angiomyolipoma is a rare clinical disease with potential malignant transformation as recurrence and metastasis.Complete resection of the tumor by sur-gery is an effective treatment.Retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy is the first choice.

To investigate the clinical symptoms and endoscopic features of rectal benign lymphoid polyps, a retrospective analysis was conducted on 15 consecutive cases (16 lesions) who underwent endoscopic resection at the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University between April 2015 and June 2023, with postoperative pathological confirmation of rectal benign lymphoid polyps. The results showed that among the 15 patients, 6 were male and 9 were female, with a mean age of 52.6 years. Colonoscopy was performed in 8 patients due to clinical symptoms, among whom 7 presented with abdominal pain. All 16 lesions were submucosal, including 14 solitary and 1 multiple. The lesions were located in the lower rectum ( n=10) and mid-rectum ( n=6), with a mean long diameter of 0.5 cm. Fourteen lesions exhibited regular shape as flat circles or hemispheres. The surface mucosa appeared normal or gray-white in 11 lesions, and varying degrees of capillary dilation were observed in 8 lesions, among which 2 exhibited prominent capillaries resembling a "wheel-shaped" pattern. Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) was performed in 10 lesions prior to endoscopic resection: 4 originated from the third layer, 3 from the second layer, and 3 from both the second and third layers. Five lesions appeared as homogeneous hypoechoic masses, 3 were hyperechoic, and 2 showed mixed echogenicity. Therefore, the clinical symptoms of rectal benign lymphoid polyps are non-specific. Endoscopically, the presence of "wheel-shaped" pattern of dilated capillaries may serve as a diagnostic clue. When EUS demonstrates hyperechoic or mixed echogenicity, it could aid in the differential diagnosis from rectal neuroendocrine neoplasms.
