This report describes a 72-year-old male patient with occipitotemporal cavernous hemangioma(CCH).The patient presented with persistent pain in the right occipital and retro auricular areas for over one year.Physical examination detected a tender mass in the right occipital region.Imaging studies showed destruction of the right occipitotemporal bone with a heterogeneous signal mass and irregular enhancement on magnetic resonance imaging(MRI).Positron emission tomography/computed tomography(PET/CT)examination revealed increased fluorodeoxyglucose(FDG)uptake(SUVmax=5.9),suggesting a benign lesion.Complete surgical excision of the tumor and involved skull was performed,with pathological diagnosis confirming cavernous hemangioma.The patient's symptoms completely resolved with no recurrence during three months of follow-up.This case represents the first report of PET/CT application in diagnosing occipitotemporal CCH,providing valuable reference for improving diagnostic accuracy and reducing misdiagnosis rates for this rare condition.

A 77-year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital with the main cause of memory loss, visual hallucination for more than one year, aggravated for two months with sensitivity and paranoia. The patient exhibited signs of loss of smell, axial hypertonia, upper limb hypertonia, slow start, and propulsive gait. Cranial MRI suggested cerebral atrophy, bilateral hippocampal atrophy, and multiple cavernous cerebral infarcts. Severe memory deficits, moderate intellectual deficits, MMSE score of 12, mildly abnormal electroencephalography, and polysomnographic monitoring suggested a high likelihood of apnea syndrome. Prior to the onset of the disease, the patient had a history of swinging, shouting, and cursing during nighttime sleep, according to his family members. The final diagnosis was Lewy body dementia.

To perform the phylogenetic characterization of an isolated porcine rotavirus(PoRV)and investigate its pathogenicity in suckling mice and piglets.A G4P[23]genotype PoRV strain JSJR2023 was successfully isolated from the diarrheic piglet feces through propagation in MA104 cells.The viral proliferation kinetics were analyzed using TCID50 assays,followed by complete genome sequencing through Sanger sequencing platforms.Comprehensive genotyping and phylogenetic reconstruction were conducted using MEGA7.0 with maximum likelihood algorithms.Pathogenicity was assessed in the following animal models:5-day-old C57BL/6 mice and 3-day-old piglets.Multidimensional evaluation included clinical monitoring(diarrhea scoring,growth parameters),virological detection,and histopathological analysis of intestinal tissues.The virus strain JSJR2023 could replicate efficiently in MA104 cells,achieving peak titers of 107.5 TCID50/mL.Whole genome genotype analysis showed that the strain belonged to G4-P[23]-I5-R1-C1-M1-A8-N1-T1-E1-H1.Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the VP3 and NSP4 genes of JSJR2023 strain were most closedrelated to human species rotaviruses,suggesting genetic reassortment between human and porcine RV strains.The animal experiments in suckling mice showed that the JSJR2023 strain infection caused diarrhea symptoms,intestinal edema and congestion,and shedding of intestinal villus epithelial cells.The pathogenicity experiments in piglets showed that compared with the control group,the challenged group of pig-lets had severe diarrhea symptoms,accompanied by reduced appetite and listlessness.Post-mortem examination revealed that the intes-tines were significantly thinner,congested,and filled with yellow watery contents.The challenged piglets showed typical pathological changes such as thinning of the intestinal wall and shortening and shedding of intestinal villi.In conclusion,this study successfully iso-lated a human-porcine recombinant G4P[23]PoRV strain and established the infection models in suckling mice and piglets,providing important tools for investigating the pathogenic mechanism of PoRV,evaluating vaccines and developing antiviral drug.

Objective To explore the feasibility of peritoneal dialysis catheter placement assisted by flexible ureteroscope.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 54 cases of end-stage renal disease receiving peritoneal dialysis catheter placement from May 2019 to March 2023.The placement method was chosen by the patient.In the conventional group,23 cases were guided by a metal guide wire for insertion of the peritoneal dialysis catheter,while in the flexible ureteroscope group,31 cases were guided by flexible ureteroscope instead of guide wire for insertion of the peritoneal dialysis catheter.The success rate of catheterization,surgical time,use of postoperative analgesic,complications related to peritoneal dialysis catheter,and postoperative creatinine decrease were compared between the two groups.Results The catheter placement was successfully performed in both groups.The total incidence of complications related to peritoneal dialysis catheter in the flexible ureteroscope group was lower than that in the conventional group[6.5%(2/31)vs.30.4%(7/23),χ2 =3.878,P =0.049].Between the conventional group and the flexible ureteroscope group,there were no statistically significant differences in the surgical time,postoperative analgesic usage,and the decrease of creatinine at 2 weeks after surgery(P>0.05).The median postoperative follow-up period was10 months(range,3-24 months)in the two groups,and there were no complications such as peritoneal leakage,intestinal perforation,or intraperitoneal bleeding.Conclusion The placement of peritoneal dialysis catheter guided by the flexible ureteroscope instead of metal guide wire is a safe,visible,and accurate method,which can reduce complications related to peritoneal dialysis catheter,and detect and manage comorbidities in the abdominal cavity.

Objective To evaluate the predictive value of serum carbohydrate antigen 50(CA50),tumor specific growth factor(TSGF),and tissue polypeptide antigen(TPA)levels for sensitivity to radiochemotherapy in patients with middle-and advanced-stage breast cancer using a nomogram model.Methods Eighty-two patients with middle-and advanced-stage breast cancer were selected as the study sub-jects.All patients received paclitaxel chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy and were divided into sensitive(n= 57)and insensitive(n= 25)groups according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors.The general information of the patients,serum expression of CA50,TSGF,and TPA,and their differences before and after treatment were recorded.A nomogram model was constructed,and cali-bration curves,receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,and decision curves were used to evaluate the predictive power and clinical utility of the nomogram model.Results Significant differences were observed in tumor diameter,vascular invasion,TNM stage,lymph node metastasis,and degree of differentiation between the two groups(P＜0.05).Compared to those in the sensitive group,the serum expression of CA50,TSGF,and TPA after treatment was higher,and the difference in CA50,TSGF,and TPA was smaller in the insensitive group(P＜0.05).Three predictive variables were identified in the LASSO regression:differences in CA50,TSGF,and TPA.The logistic regression results showed that differences in CA50,TSGF,and TPA influenced sensitivity to radiochemotherapy in middle-and advanced-stage breast cancer(P＜0.05).A nomogram model was constructed using differences in CA50,TSGF,and TPA.Calibration,ROC,and decision curves showed the model's good predictive accuracy and clinical utility.Conclusion Serum expression of CA50,TSGF,and TPA is high in patients with middle-and advanced-stage breast cancer who are insensitive to radiochemotherapy,and differences in CA50,TSGF,and TPA affect their sensitivity to radiochemotherapy.The nomogram model had good predictive value and clinical utility.

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.

Objective To analyze the expression levels of the three different subtypes of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors(PPARs),including PPAR-α,PPAR-β and PPAR-γ,in the ectopic lesion tis-sues of the patients with endometriosis(EMs)in order to provide new methods for this disease diagnosis.Methods The ectopic endometrial tissue samples from 30 patients with EMs treated by laparoscopic surgery in this hospital from April to December 2021 were selected as the experimental group,and the ovarian lesion tissue samples from 30 patients with mature cystic teratoma of the ovary(MCTO)during the same period treated by laparoscopic surgery were selected as the control group.The expression levels of PPAR-α,PPAR-βand PPAR-γ in lesion tissues were detected by using immunohistochemistry,and their expression differences between the experimental group and control group were analyzed.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was utilized to evaluate the diagnostic value of the ratios of PPAR-α/PPAR-β,PPAR-α/PPAR-γ,and PPAR-β/PPAR-γ for EMs.Results The expression levels of PPAR-α,PPAR-β and PPAR-γ in the lesion tis-sues of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group(P＜0.05).In the pa-tients with EMs,PPAR-α was predominantly expressed(P＜0.05),whereas in the patients with MCTO,PPAR-γ was predominantly expressed(P＜0.05).In the ROC curve of PPAR-α/PPAR-β ratio for diagnosing EMs,when the cutoff value was 1.251,the area under the curve(AUC)was 0.65(95％CI:0.51-0.80),the sensitivity was 90.00％,and the specificity was 50.00％.In the ROC curve of PPAR-α/PPAR-γ ratio for diag-nosing EMs,when the cutoff value was 0.817,AUC was 0.88(95％CI:0.78-0.99),the sensitivity was 96.67％and the specificity was 80.00％.In the curve of the PPAR-β/PPAR-γ ratio for diagnosing EMs,when the cutoff value was 0.755,AUC was 0.91(95％CI:0.82-1.00),the sensitivity was 100.00％,and the speci-ficity was 86.67％.Conclusion The expression of PPAR-α in the ectopic lesion tissues of the patients with EMs is significantly higher than that of PPAR-β and PPAR-γ,while in lesion tissues of the patients with MC-TO,the PPAR-γ expression is predominant.The PPAR-β/PPAR-γ ratio may become a potential biomarker for diagnosing EMs.
