ObjectiveGastric hemorrhage is one of the most common and life-threatening emergencies of the upper digestive tract. Early identification and continuous monitoring are essential for reducing rebleeding rates and mortality, particularly within the critical early hours after onset. Although endoscopy and radiological imaging can accurately localize bleeding sites, these approaches are invasive, resource-intensive, and unsuitable for continuous bedside monitoring. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT), as a noninvasive and radiation-free functional imaging technique, offers real-time visualization of conductivity distribution and has the potential for detecting intragastric bleeding based on the electrical contrast between blood and surrounding gastric tissues. In this study, a three-dimensional gastric EIT (3D-gEIT) framework is proposed to achieve noninvasive, real-time, and dynamic monitoring of gastric hemorrhage, with emphasis on spatial localization and quantitative volume assessment. MethodsA three-dimensional upper-abdominal simulation model incorporating the stomach, gastric wall, gastric contents, and surrounding tissues was established. Three electrode configurations, namely the dual layer ring, the four layer staggered ring, and the opposed dual plane array, were designed and systematically compared to evaluate their influence on depth sensitivity and spatial resolution. Based on the Tikhonov-Noser hybrid regularization scheme, a region-clustering constraint was introduced to develop the TK-Noser-RCC algorithm. This approach aggregates spatially adjacent elements with similar conductivity variations, thereby enhancing structural continuity and suppressing isolated noise artifacts. To validate the proposed framework, an upper-abdominal physical phantom was constructed using agar to simulate background tissue conductivity. Hemispherical high-conductivity inclusions with volumes ranging from 10 ml to 50 ml were attached to the inner gastric wall to mimic localized bleeding under different gastric filling states. Boundary voltages were acquired under a 120 kHz excitation current and reconstructed using the TK-Noser-RCC algorithm. Furthermore, an in vivo animal experiment was performed using a porcine model with adult-scale abdominal dimensions. A total of 100 ml of autologous blood was injected incrementally into the stomach to simulate progressive gastric hemorrhage, and time-difference EIT reconstruction was conducted at each injection stage to assess the dynamic system response under physiological conditions. ResultsSimulation results demonstrated that the opposed dual-plane electrode array achieved superior depth sensitivity distribution and spatial resolution. For a 40 ml hemorrhage model, the average ICC and SSIM improved by 55.9% and 38.8% compared with the dual-layer ring configuration, and by 64.0% and 39.5% compared with the four-layer staggered configuration. The proposed region-clustering constraint significantly enhanced reconstruction stability. Under added Gaussian noise of 40 dB and 30 dB, ICC values remained approximately 0.85, indicating effective artifact suppression and preservation of boundary integrity. In physical phantom experiments, reconstructed hemorrhage volumes increased approximately linearly with the preset hemispherical volumes, and the reconstructed high-conductivity regions closely matched the actual bleeding locations. Both empty-stomach and full-stomach conditions were evaluated, demonstrating that the opposed dual-plane configuration maintained stable imaging performance across varying gastric contents. In the animal experiment, reconstructed low-impedance regions expanded progressively with increasing injected blood volume. The spatial localization of the hemorrhage remained stable throughout the procedure, and no significant artifacts were observed. Quantitative analysis showed that reconstructed volume and average conductivity variation exhibited an approximately linear growth trend with injected blood volume, confirming the sensitivity of the system to dynamic intragastric conductivity changes. ConclusionThe proposed 3D-gEIT framework enables quantitative reconstruction of gastric hemorrhage volume and spatial distribution with improved depth sensitivity, structural continuity, and noise robustness compared with conventional EIT approaches. By integrating optimized electrode configuration and a region-clustering-constrained reconstruction algorithm, the system provides stable dynamic monitoring under both controlled phantom conditions and in vivo physiological environments. This method offers a noninvasive, real-time, and low-cost imaging strategy for early diagnosis, postoperative monitoring, and bedside surveillance of gastric bleeding.

AIM: To address the problem of cognitive overload and deviation from core teaching objectives caused by information redundancy in traditional case-based teaching in ophthalmology, Occam's Razor principle was innovatively applied to construct a set of streamlined case-based teaching resources, and their effectiveness was subsequently validated.METHODS:This was a prospective randomized controlled trial. Intern students from the 2019 and 2020 cohorts of the five-year clinical medicine program who completed their ophthalmology clerkship at the Department of Ophthalmology, Tangdu Hospital, Air Force Medical University between June 2023 and May 2025 were enrolled. By using a random number table, they were randomly assigned to an experimental group and a control group. Cases refined by Occam's Razor principle(removing irrelevant information and focusing on core principles, clinical reasoning, and the diagnostic and therapeutic workflow)were adopted for the experimental group, whereas the original complete cases were used for the control group. Teaching effectiveness was assessed through knowledge tests, classroom performance evaluation, teaching case assessment, and student satisfaction.RESULTS:Totally 120 students were included in this study and all of them completed the research. There were 60 students in the experimental group(43 males and 17 females, mean age 21.72±0.76 y)and 60 students in control group(41 males and 19 females, mean age 21.68±0.57 y)(all P>0.05). The score rates on the ocular trauma section and on the case analysis questions were significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group(83.21%±7.96% vs 74.25%±11.01%; 84.31%±8.08% vs 67.62%±11.63%; both P<0.001). Teacher evaluations indicated that the experimental group achieved better scores than the control group in aspects such as identification of key case points and logical clinical reasoning(all P<0.001). A significantly lower cognitive load score was observed in the experimental group, whereas higher scores were obtained for clarity of case structure, thought-provoking quality, and teaching value(all P<0.001). The teaching satisfaction rate reached 95% in the experimental group, which was higher than the 83% observed in the control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Refined cases guided by Occam's Razor principle can significantly reduce cognitive load, enhance medical students' efficiency in mastering core diagnostic and therapeutic principles, improve the precision of clinical reasoning, and strengthen execution of clinical procedures, thereby providing an innovative pathway for clinical teaching reform.

OBJECTIVE To develop evidence-based clinical practice recommendations for the use of hemostatic drugs in special populations， so as to improve the efficacy and safety of medication.METHODS Led by the Sichuan Academy of Medical Sciences & Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital， a working group of 79 experts covering clinical pharmacy， obstetrics and gynecology， pediatrics and other fields was established. Clinical questions regarding the efficacy and safety of hemostatic drugs in special populations were screened through literature review and two rounds of Delphi questionnaire surveys. Intervention questions were structured using the population， intervention， comparison， and outcome framework， while management questions were additionally described using the population， clinical setting, management measure， and outcome framework. Databases including Medline， Embase， Cochrane Library， CNKI， Wanfang Data， and VIP were systematically searched to collect and screen relevant evidence. Recommendations were formulated through recommendation questionnaire surveys and expert consensus meetings， and the quality of evidence and strength of recommendations were graded according to the Grading of Recommendations Assessment， Development and Evaluation system. RESULTS &CONCLUSIONS A total of 8 clinical questions were finally determined， the consensus rates of all clinical questions and recommendations were more than 90%， and 8 recommendations on the use of hemostatic drugs in special populations were formulated. These recommendations cover special populations including children， women during pregnancy/puerperium/lactation， the elderly， patients with hepatic impairment， patients in the perioperative period of liver transplantation， patients with renal impairment/on dialysis/in the perioperative period of kidney transplantation， immunocompromised patients， and patients with hematological diseases. The recommendations specify the applicable scenarios， dose adjustment principles， monitoring indicators， and safety management strategies of hemostatic drugs in different special populations， which can provide a reference for the clinical application of hemostatic drugs in special populations and help clinicians and pharmacists develop individualized medication plans.

Lung cancer exhibits the highest incidence and mortality rates among cancers globally,with a five-year overall survival rate alarmingly below 20％.Targeting autophagy,though a controversial therapeutic strategy,is extensively employed in clinical practice.Current research is actively pursuing various therapeutic strategies using small molecules to exploit the dual function of autophagy.Nevertheless,the pivotal question of enhancing or inhibiting autophagy in cancer therapy merits further attention.This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms of autophagy in lung cancer.It also explores recent advances in targeting cytotoxic autophagy and inhibiting protective autophagy with small molecules to induce cell death in lung cancer cells.Notably,most autophagy-targeting drugs,primarily natural small molecules,have demonstrated that activating cytotoxic autophagy effectively induces cell death in lung cancer,as opposed to inhibiting protective autophagy.These insights contribute to identifying druggable targets and drug candidates for potential autophagy-related lung cancer therapies,offering promising approaches to combat this disease.

[Purpose]To investigate the acceptance and willingness-to-pay(WTP)of combined can-cer screening among rural residents in Shandong Province,and to analyze its influencing factors.[Methods]A face-to-face questionnaire survey was conducted among rural residents aged 40～70 in villages setected by cluster sampling from three counties(county level city or district)in Shan-dong Province.The questionnaire was developed using the method of double-bound dichotomous choice combined with open-ended questions in contingent valuation.The factors influencing inten-sity of WTP was analyzed with using single-factor and ordinary least squares regression models.[Results]A total of 962 subjects were surveyed.89.19％of the respondents were willing to accept cancer combined screening,and 62.00％were willing to pay part of the costs.The average of WTP was 963.67 CNY,which accounted for 32.12％of the total cost.The proportion of respon-dents who were willing to pay between 0～1 500 CNY was the highest(76.49％).In the multivariate analysis,age,sex and income had significant effects on the maximum payment of multi-cancer screening.[Conclusion]The acceptance of multi-cancer screening among rural residents in the study sites is high,but the willingness-to-pay is limited.The out-of-pocket payment for multi-can-cer screening should be controlled,and a co-payment mechanism among government,enterprises,social organizations and individuals should be explored.
