Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of inferior gluteus maximus muscle-pedicled myocutaneous flap for reconstruction of stage Ⅳ ischial pressure sores.Methods:Clinical data of patients with stage Ⅳ ischial pressure sores treated between April 2020 and September 2023 at the First People’s Hospital of Yulin were retrospectively analyzed. Underlying comorbidities were treated preoperatively to assure surgical safety. Stage Ⅰ management involved radical debridement of infected tissue followed by vacuum sealing drainage (VSD). Stage Ⅱ reconstruction was performed after inflammation control. An inferior gluteus maximus-pedicled myocutaneous flap was designed laterally to the defect. The muscle component width exceeded the skin paddle width, with the distal muscle extending about 3 cm beyond the skin island. The flap was advanced medially in a V-Y fashion to cover the defect. The donor site was sutured in layers. Postoperative flap viability, wound healing, aesthetic outcomes, and pressure sores recurrence were assessed.Results:A total of 20 patients were included in this study. Among them, 14 were males and 6 were females. The age ranged from 27 to 72 years, with a mean age of 52.3 years. The body mass index (BMI) ranged from 17.8 to 31.3 kg/m 2, with a mean BMI of 21.0 kg/m 2. All had paraplegia secondary to spinal cord injury. Comorbidities included type 2 diabetes and (or) hypertension (10 cases) and ischial osteomyelitis (3 cases). Pressure sores duration ranged from 1 month to 3 years. Defect sizes were 3 cm×4 cm to 5 cm×10 cm (depth: 3-6 cm). Flap sizes matched defects (3 cm×4 cm to 5 cm×10 cm), with muscle dimensions of 2 cm×5 cm×9 cm to 3 cm×8 cm×15 cm. Postoperatively, all 20 flaps showed good blood supply without flap necrosis. The wound healing time ranged from 12 to 22 days (mean: 15 days). Seventeen cases achieved primary wound healing. The remaining three cases developed fat liquefaction at the donor sites, but their wounds eventually healed after dressing changes on postoperative days 18, 20, and 22, respectively. During follow-up (mean: 13 months, range: 6-34 months), the flaps maintained good texture with no recurrence. Conclusion:The inferior gluteus maximus muscle-pedicled myocutaneous flap provides sufficient bulk, simple design, and reliable transposition for dead-space obliteration and surface coverage in stage Ⅳ ischial pressure sores. This technique yields favorable aesthetics and low recurrence rates.

Objective To understand the clinical applicability and implementation of expert consensus on the implementation and removal of protective restraints in psychiatry,and to provide references for promoting the standardized practice of psychiatric protective restraints and updating the consensus.Methods By the convenience sampling method,a questionnaire survey was conducted among nurses from 480 hospitals in 30 provinces from June 15 to July 15,2024.The survey was conducted using the instrument for evaluating clinical applicability of guide-lines(version 2.0)and a self-compiled questionnaire on the clinical implementation of the restraint consensus.Results A total of 7,844 valid questionnaires were collected,with a valid questionnaire recovery rate of 93.78％.The results of clinical applicability scoring showed that the consensus had the lowest availability score(64.72％)and the highest acceptability score(76.74％).The results showed that nurses' receiving training and the level of their hospitals were the main influencing factors for scores in various dimensions(P＜0.05).4,774 participants(87.42％)believed that the application of consensus could enhance the standardization of nurses' restraint operations.The safety rate of the restraint consensus was 79.51％,and the economic ratio was 76.87％.Among the evaluators,1,739(22.17％)believed that there were implementation obstacles in the consensus.Conclusion The clinical applicability of the consensus is relatively good,and the application of the consensus helps to improve the standardization of clinical operations.In the future,efforts should be made to strengthen the promotion and training of the consensus,develop hierarchical promotion strategies according to the characteristics of medical institutions,and improve the quality of evidence for the consensus,so as to further enhance the clinical application effect of the consensus.

In order to further understand the cognitive attitude of different groups towards the rank of rights and interests in medical decision-making and its influencing factors, and provide theoretical reference for the practice of medical decision-making, this study conducted convenience sampling through the questionnaire star enterprise edition. The collected data were descriptive statistical analysis with SPSS 21.0 software and joint hypothesis testing. The results showed that there were differences in the cognition of religious beliefs on the same individual’s rights and interests rank among the sample population (P<0.05). There were differences in the cognition of professional title, working years and institution level on the attitude of rights and interests rank in the group of medical institutions (P<0.05). In the ranking of the importance of individual rights usually involved in medical activities, the rights to life, health and equality were the most important. Most people can rationally view the rights and interests of doctors, patients and stakeholders. In medical decision-making, we should adhere to the principle of right rank, give priority to safeguarding the right to life and give consideration to fairness and justice. In the face of conflicts of interest, we should do a good job in value evaluation, safeguard the reasonable interests of patients and give consideration to the demands of family members.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between the grouping and weighting of two sets of disease combination systems, namely diagnosis-related groups(DRG) and diagnosis-intervention packet(DIP), and to establish a multidimensional analysis and evaluation mode by applying DRG, DIP, and clinical pathway to guide the standardized diagnosis and treatment and management of disease types.Methods:DRG grouping and DIP simulation full enrollment were applied to patients discharged from a tertiary Grade A general hospital in 2019. The correlation analysis between DRG, DIP, and clinical pathway inclusion(entry), correlation analysis between relative weight of DRG group and DIP standard score, and correlation analysis between clinical pathway entry and cost structure of the two disease groups were conducted by using chi-square test, Pearson correlation analysis, t-test, structural change value, degree of structural change, and incremental contribution rate. Results:Among the 130 395 patients, 41 460 cases entered the clinical pathway, 127 535 cases were enrolled in DRG, and 104 227 cases were enrolled in DIP. There was a correlation between the enrollment of DRG, DIP, and clinical pathway( P<0.05), and there was also a correlation between the relative weight of DRG groups and the enrollment of clinical pathway. The relative weight of the DRG disease group was positively correlated with the DIP standard score( r2=0.761 7, P<0.001). There was a significant difference in hospitalization costs between patients with and without clinical pathway access for some diseases( P<0.05), and different cost categories had different impacts on the total costs. Conclusions:The weight assignment and value orientation of DRG and DIP disease types are consistent, and the multi-dimensional fusion evaluation mode for DRG-DIP-clinical pathway is feasible. The correlation analysis of DRG, DIP, and clinical pathways can serve as the basis for disease classification and cost structure evaluation, which could help to carry out hospital′s refined management and optimize disease structure.

BackgroundThe existing tools in China for assessing psychiatric nurses' knowledge， attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint do not sufficiently consider the specialty in psychiatric practice， and the scale items are somewhat cumbersome to use， which together restrict their further promotion and application. Accordingly， there is an urgent need for developing a more scientific assessment tool. ObjectiveTo construct a scale for assessing psychiatric nurses' knowledge， attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint and to verify its reliability and validity， so as to provide a generic tool for the assessment. MethodsBased on the theoretical framework of the knowledge-attitude-practice model， the preliminary scale was formed through systematic literature review， qualitative interview and Delphi method. From July to December 2021， a stratified sampling was utilized to select 729 psychiatric nurses from tertiary， secondary and primary （including unclassified medical institutions and grassroots hospitals） psychiatric hospitals in Guangdong Province. The formal scale was developed through item analysis， exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The validity of the scale was evaluated by content validity and structure validity， and the reliability was verified by procedures including Cronbach's α coefficient， test-retest reliability， and split-half reliability. ResultsA total of 12 items of three dimensions （knowledge， attitude， practice） were included in the scale for assessing psychiatric nurses' knowledge， attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint. The scale-level content validity index （S-CVI） was 0.941， and the item-level content validity index （I-CVI） ranged from 0.812 to 1.000. Exploratory factor analysis extracted three common factors， and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 62.948%. The confirmatory factor yielded adequate fit. Cronbach's α coefficient was found to be 0.887 for the scale， 0.819 for knowledge dimension， 0.842 for attitude dimension， and 0.831 for practice dimension. The split-half reliability and test-retest reliability for the scale were 0.712 and 0.922， respectively. ConclusionThe scale shows satisfactory reliability and validity， which can be used to assess psychiatric nurses' knowledge， attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint. ［Funded by Guangdong Clinical Teaching Base Teaching Reform Research Project （number， 2021JD119）］

Objective To observe the clinical and imaging features of invasive Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess syndrome(IKPLAS).Methods Data of 68 patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess(KPLA)were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into IKPLAS group(n=25)or non-IKPLAS group(n=43)according to extrahepatic invasive infection or not.Clinical data as well as CT and/or MRI findings were compared between groups.Results The patients'age was lower,while glycated hemoglobin and D-dimer levels were higher in IKPLAS group than those in non-IKPLAS group(all P＜0.05).Hepatic venous thrombophlebitis was detected in 18 cases in IKPLAS group and 6 cases in non-IKPLAS group,while arterial phase abnormal high perfusion around abscess was noticed in 10 cases in IKPLAS group and 28 cases in non-IKPLAS group,both being significantly different between groups(both P＜0.05).The extrahepatic infection in IKPLAS group mainly observed in lungs(19/25,76.00%).Conclusion The ages were lower,while glycated hemoglobin and D-dimer levels were both higher in IKPLAS than in the other KPLA patients.Often appeared hepatic venous thrombophlebitis and extrahepatic infection mainly affecting lungs were imaging characteristics of IKPLAS.

Objective To discuss the efficacy and safety of transarterial chemoembolization(TACE)and hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy(HAIC)combined with tyrosine kinase inhibitors(TKI)and immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICI)for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods A total of 101 patients with unresectable HCC,who were admitted to the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Harbin Medical University of China between January 2021 and October 2022 to receive treatment,were enrolled in this study.Of the 101 patients,50 received TACE+TKI+ICI therapy(TACE+TKI+ICI group)and 51 received HAIC+TKI+ICI therapy(HAIC+TKI+ICI group).The overall survival(OS)and the progression-free survival(PFS)were compared between the two groups,and the adverse events were analyzed to assess the safety of the therapeutic scheme.Results The median PFS in the TACE+TKI+ICI group was 12.0 months,which in the HAIC+TKI+ICI group was 11.0 months(P=0.030).The median OS was not achieved in the TACE+TKI+ICI group,which in the HAIC+TKI+ICI group was 14.6 months(P=0.005).The most common adverse effects in the TACE+TKI+ICI group were the elevation of total bilirubin(46.0％)and hepatic function injury(26.0％),which in the HAIC+TKI+ICI group were the decrease of albumin level(62.7％),fatigue(39.2％),and gastrointestinal reactions(31.4％).Conclusion For the treatment of advanced HCC,the therapeutic scheme of TACE+TKI+ICI has a better long-term survival benefits and the therapeutic scheme of HAIC+TKI+ICI can better maintain the liver function reserve of the patients.Neither therapeutic scheme shows any unexpected toxicity,and both therapeutic schemes have high clinical safety.(J Intervent Radiol,2024,33:543-548)

Decellularized matrix transplantation has emerged as a promising therapeutic approach for repairing tissue defects, with numerous studies assessing its safety and efficacy in both animal models and clinical settings. The host immune response elicited by decellularized matrix grafts of natural biological origin plays a crucial role in determining the success of tissue repair, influenced by matrix heterogeneity and the inflammatory microenvironment of the wound. However, the specific immunologic mechanisms underlying the interaction between decellularized matrix grafts and the host immune system remain elusive. This article reviews the sources of decellularized matrices, available decellularization techniques, and residual immunogenic components. It focuses on the host immune response following decellularized matrix transplantation, with emphasis on the key mechanisms of Toll-like receptor, T-cell receptor, and TGF-β/SMAD signaling in the stages of post-transplantation immunorecognition, immunomodulation, and tissue repair, respectively. Furthermore, it highlights the innovative roles of TLR10 and miR-29a-3p in improving transplantation outcomes. An in-depth understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the host immune response after decellularized matrix transplantation provides new directions for the repair of tissue defects.
