Objective To investigate the influence of plasma infusion during orthotopic liver transplantation on the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in recipients. Methods Cinical data of 473 liver transplant recipients who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation at Beijing Chaoyang Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2016 to December 2020 were retrospectively collected. The study included 354 recipients who received plasma infusion during the operation (plasma group) and 119 recipients who did not receive plasma infusion during the operation (control group). Preoperative conditions, donor conditions, intraoperative conditions, main outcome indicators and secondary outcome indicators of the two groups were analyzed and compared. Receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn to calculate the maximum cut-off value of intraoperative plasma infusion volume that affected the occurrence of AKI within 7 days after surgery. Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the correlation between intraoperative plasma infusion volume and the incidence of AKI within 7 days after surgery. Results Before propensity score matching, the incidence of AKI within 7 days after surgery and the incidence of grade Ⅲ AKI in the plasma group were higher than those in the control group (both P<0.05). After propensity score matching, 62 recipients were included in each group. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of AKI within 7 days after surgery between the plasma group and the control group, but the incidence of grade Ⅲ AKI within 7 days after surgery in the plasma group was higher than that in the control group (P=0.041). Logistic regression analysis showed that intraoperative plasma infusion volume >900 mL was a potential risk factor for AKI within 7 days after surgery (odds ratio=1.936, 95% confidence interval 1.193-3.142, P=0.007). There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of 365-day postoperative fatality, reperfusion syndrome, and postoperative 30-day complications between the two groups before and after propensity score matching. In addition, the postoperative albumin, fibrinogen levels, and international normalized ratio in the plasma group were better than those in the control group before and after matching (all P<0.05). Conclusions Large amount of intraoperative plasma infusion is associated with an increased risk of grade Ⅲ AKI after orthotopic liver transplantation. Intraoperative plasma infusion volume >900 mL may increase the risk of AKI within 7 days after surgery.

Objective:Analyze the imaging and clinical data of cases undergoing thoracoscopic subsegmental resection for non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) with a diameter≤2 cm, and explore the clinical outcomes of subsegmental resection.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 58 patients who underwent thoracoscopic subsegmentectomy in China-Japan Friendship Hospital from January 2020 to July 2024. Three-dimensional reconstruction technology was used for surgical planning before the operation, and thoracoscopic subsegmentectomy was performed, including single lung subsegmentectomy(Group 1), multiple lung subsegmentectomy(Group 2), and combined segmentectomy and subsegmentectomy(Group 3).Results:All patients successfully completed the surgery, with 23 cases of single lung subsegmentectomy, 6 cases of multiple lung subsegmentectomy, and 29 cases of combined segmentectomy and subsegmentectomy. The median intraoperative blood loss was 30.0(20.0, 30.0)ml, the average operation time was(2.03±0.68) h, the average pathological size of the nodules was(10.53±4.45) mm, and the average postoperative tube retention was(2.55±0.92) days. There were 6 cases of postoperative complications, including pulmonary air leakage in 2 cases, cerebral embolism in 1 case, pulmonary embolism in 1 case, pulmonary infection in 1 case, and atrial fibrillation in 1 case. All patients had negative surgical margins in the postoperative pathology. Group 1 had less average intraoperative blood loss than Group 2, with statistically significant differences( P=0.027). Surgical procedures for the upper lobe of the lung mainly involve the resection of combined segments and subsegments, while those for the lower lobe primarily consist of single segmentectomy. Conclusion:Subsegmentectomy is an effective surgical approach when the nodule is small and a clear margin can be ensured, allowing for better preservation of remaining lung tissue. Bleeding during multiple subsegmentectomies is greater than that in single subsegmentectomy and combined segmentectomy with subsegmentectomy, which may be related to the more complex vascular variations in multiple subsegmentectomies.

Cemental tear is a rare and indetectable condition unless obvious clinical signs present with the involvement of surrounding periodontal and periapical tissues. Due to its clinical manifestations similar to common dental issues, such as vertical root fracture, primary endodontic diseases, and periodontal diseases, as well as the low awareness of cemental tear for clinicians, misdiagnosis often occurs. The critical principle for cemental tear treatment is to remove torn fragments, and overlooking fragments leads to futile therapy, which could deteriorate the conditions of the affected teeth. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and subsequent appropriate interventions are vital for managing cemental tear. Novel diagnostic tools, including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), microscopes, and enamel matrix derivatives, have improved early detection and management, enhancing tooth retention. The implementation of standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols, combined with improved clinical awareness among dental professionals, serves to mitigate risks of diagnostic errors and suboptimal therapeutic interventions. This expert consensus reviewed the epidemiology, pathogenesis, potential predisposing factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cemental tear, aiming to provide a clinical guideline and facilitate clinicians to have a better understanding of cemental tear.

Objective:To summarize and analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with antibody mediated rejection (AMR) after lung transplantation at China-Japan Friendship Hospital, thereby providing references for clinical management.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted by collecting clinical data of 34 lung transplant recipients (LTRs) diagnosed with AMR between March 2017 and September 2023. The diagnosis of AMR was based on the 2019 International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) consensus. Baseline characteristics, primary diseases, pre-diagnostic events, diagnosis, treatment regimens, and outcomes were summarized and analyzed. According to outcomes at the final follow-up (March 31, 2024), patients were divided into survival group (22 cases) and death group (12 cases), and the differences in clinical characteristics and treatments were compared.Results:The incidence of AMR among 551 LTRs was 6.2% (34/551). Among the 34 AMR recipients, 79.4% (27/34) were male, and the median age was 64.0 (54.5, 67.3) years. The primary underlying disease was interstitial lung disease (79.4%). Based on diagnostic classification, 73.5%(25/34) were clinical AMR and 26.5% (9/34) were subclinical AMR. Regarding diagnostic levels, 11.8%(4/34) were proven AMR, 50.0% (17/34) probable AMR, and 38.2%(13/34) possible AMR. Pre-transplant sensitization was detected in 2 patients (5.9%). Post-transplant HLA antibody testing revealed 79.4%(27/34) positive for HLA class Ⅱ antibodies (most commonly DQ7) and 85.3%(29/34) had newly developed HLA antibodies, of which 82.4%(28/34) were de novo donor-specific antibodies (DSA). The most common clinical manifestations were exertional dyspnea(67.6%) and decreased pulse oxygen saturation(47.1%). Chest imaging mainly showed new consolidations or patchy opacities (55.9%), followed by ground-glass opacities (32.4%) and pleural effusion (20.6%). Regarding treatment, 94.1% (32/34) received intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), 88.2%(30/34) underwent plasma exchange, and 41.2%(14/34) received intravenous glucocorticoid (IVGC). The most common regimens were "plasma exchange+IVIG" and "IVGC+plasma exchange+IVIG+rituximab", each used in 23.5%(8/34) of cases. The complete HLA antibody clearance rate after treatment was 38.2%. The mortality rates at 3 months, 1 year, and final follow-up after AMR diagnosis were 8.8%, 23.5%, and 35.3%, respectively, with a median survival time of 243.0(96.3, 572.3) days. The survival group had a significantly higher rate of tacrolimus-based triple immunosuppressive therapy (glucocorticoid+tacrolimus+mycophenolate moftil) compared to the death group [86.4% (19/22) vs 50.0% (6/12), P=0.040], while rituximab usage was higher in the death group [75.0% (9/12) vs 13.6% (3/22), P=0.008]. Conclusions:Although AMR after lung transplantation is relatively rare, its diagnosis is challenging, antibody clearance rate after treatment is low, and clinical outcomes are poor, requiring heightened clinical vigilance.

Objective To explore the guiding significance of preoperative 3D reconstruction for pulmonary nodule location and thoracoscopic surgical method selection in lung cancer patients. Methods The clinical data of the patients with preoperative 3D reconstruction in our China-Japan Friendship Hospital between January and November 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Preoperative surgical planning was performed using 3D reconstruction. Different surgical procedure, including wedge resection, segmentectomy, lobectomy, or combined surgical procedure were performed based on tumor location, size and distance from the pleura. Results A total of 115 patients were included with 45 males and 70 females, at an average age of 25-84 (58.29±11.36) years and successfully completed the operation. Fifty-five (47.8%) patients' nodule diameter was tangent cross-section, among whom twenty-five (21.7%) patients of nodules crossed sections. There were 21 patients of wedge resection in the outer 1/3 nodules of CT, which had shorter operation time and less cost (P<0.001) and less intraoperative bleeding (P=0.019). For the crossing sections or edge crossing sections nodules of the middle and inner of CT, 6 patients were of simple pulmonary segmentectomy, 8 patients of combined with sub-segmentectomy, 7 patients of combined segmentectomy, 5 patients of lobectomy, and 3 patients of wedge resection. Conclusion The proportion of cross-segment pulmonary nodules is relatively high. For the outer 1/3 nodules of CT, compared with pulmonary segmental resection combined with adjacent lung tissue resection, wedge resection can also ensure sufficient surgical margin, and the middle and inner 1/3 nodules of CT need to be combined with adjacent pulmonary tissue resection to ensure the surgical edge.

Objective To explore the optimal postoperative adjuvant regimens for patients with stage IB lung adenocarcinoma.Methods We respectively analyzed the data of 653 patients undergoing surgery for stage IB lung adenocarcinoma in our hospital from January,2013 to December,2021.The 5-year disease-free survival(DFS)and overall survival(OS)rates were compared among the patients receiving postoperative adjuvant therapy with epidermal growth factor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors(EGFR-TKIs group,n=111),chemotherapy(CT group,n=108)and clinical observation(CO group,n=434).Results In TKIs,CT,and CO groups,the 5-year DFS rates were 92.8%,80.7%,and 81.7%,respectively,significantly higher in TKIs group than in CO group(P<0.01).The 3-year OS rates of the 3 groups were 96.8%,97.1%,and 91.7%,respectively.Subgroup analysis showed that in TKIs,CT,and CO groups,the 5-year DFS rates of patients with with T3-4 cmN0M0 were 92.6%,84.0%,and 81.4%,respectively,significantly higher in TKIs group than in CO group(P<0.05);the 5-year DFS rates of T2ViscPlN0M0 patients were 95.1%,71.4%,and 83.5%,respectively.Multivariate COX regression analysis showed that age(P<0.05;HR=0.631,95%CI:0.401-0.993),solid nodules(P<0.01;HR=7.620,95%CI:3.037-19.121),micropapillary or solid component(P<0.05;HR=1.776,95%CI:1.010-3.122),lymphovascular invasion(P<0.05;HR=2.981,95%CI:1.198-7.419),and adjuvant therapy(P<0.01)were independent predictors of DFS.The most common adverse effects included rashes,paronychia,and diarrhea for TKIs and hematological suppression and gastrointestinal reactions for chemotherapy,and TKIs were associated with a higher incidence of grade 3 or above adverse effects(44.4%vs 9.0%).Conclusion Adjuvant therapy with TKIs helps improve DFS in patients with stage IB(T3-4cmN0M0)lung adenocarcinoma but not in patients with T2ViscPlN0M0.Adjuvant chemotherapy does not improve DFS or OS in patients with stage IB lung adenocarcinoma.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the current situation of the review and comment on inpatient medical orders in Beijing municipal hospitals， and to put forward countermeasures and suggestions for further improving related work. METHODS A questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate the current situation of the review and comment on inpatient medical orders in 22 Beijing municipal hospitals. The statistical analysis was conducted for the survey results. RESULTS A total of 22 questionnaires were distributed， with recovery effective rate of 100%. The 22 hospitals carried out inpatient medical order comment， but their proportion varied among hospitals （0.88%-98.54%）； medical order comment mainly focused on antibiotics， proton pump inhibitors， anesthetic drugs/class Ⅰ psychotropic drugs， auxiliary drugs and other categories； 205 pharmacists participated in the comment of inpatient medical orders， most of whom hold intermediate or higher professional titles （89.27%）； 21 hospitals conducted inpatient medical order comment and feedback the results to relevant departments/responsible persons， but the intervention situation was not the same. Eighteen hospitals had carried out the review of inpatient medical orders； reviewed drug category was roughly the same as the category involved in the medical order comment； review content involved the suitability of administration routes， dosage， etc. The review was conducted mainly through the cooperation of audit software and pharmacists. CONCLUSIONS The comment and review of inpatient medical orders in Beijing municipal hospitals carried out in an orderly manner， and preliminary results have been achieved； at the same time， it is necessary to further increase the ability of participating pharmacists， improve audit standards， optimize pre-audit （No.ZYLX201805） software， and promote rational drug use among hospitalized patients through doctor-pharmacist collaboration.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of acupuncture in the treatment of chemotherapy-related cognitive impairment （CRCI） of breast cancer based on resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging （rs-fMRI）. MethodTwenty-five patients with CRCI of breast cancer were included and treated with the acupuncture based on the method of regulating qi and blood， nourishing mind and benefiting intelligence； the selected acupoints included Zusanli （ST 36， bilateral）， Xuehai （SP 10， bilateral）， Tanzhong （CV 17）， Zhongwan （CV 12）， Qihai （CV 6）， Baihui （GV 20）， Fengfu （GV 16， bilateral）， Xinshu （BL 15， bilateral）， Tongli （HT 5， bilateral）， Zhaohai （KI 6， bilateral）， Yixi （BL 45， bilateral） twice a week， each time interval of 2-3 days， for 8 weeks. The scores of Montreal Cognitive Assessment （MoCA）， Mini-mental State Examination （MMSE）， European Cancer Research and Treatment Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire （EORTC QLQ-C30） were compared before and after acupuncture， and the effectiveness were evaluated by MoCA scale. The patients received rs-fMRI before and after treatment， and used low-frequency oscillation amplitude and functional connectivity （FC） analysis to extract the mean zALFF values of regions of interest such as bilateral anterior cingulate gyrus， bilateral hippocampus， bilateral amygdala， bilateral temporal pole middle temporal gyrus， and bilateral temporal pole supramarginal gyrus for comparison， and used the brain regions with statistically significant differences in the pre- and post-treatment zALFF values as the seed points for the seed-point-based FC Analysis. Correlation analyses were performed between the imaging metrics and the clinical scales. ResultsTwenty-four patients with CRCI of breast cancer completed treatment and follow-up. The zALFF values of the left hippocampus， left amygdala， and left temporal pole temporal gyrus in patients' rs-fMRI decreased after treatment （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）， and left temporal pole temporal gyrus and right posterior cerebellar lobe FC were elevated （t = -5.169）， and MoCA scale total scores and visuospatial and executive， naming， and delayed recall cognitive scores， MMSE scale total scores， and EORTC QLQ-C30 scale mood scores were significantly higher （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. The total effective rate of MoCA was 58.33%. The difference in zALFF values of the left temporal pole middle temporal gyrus before and after treatment was negatively correlated with the MoCA total score （r= -0.499， P = 0.015）， as well as the difference in abstract function （r = -0.498， P = 0.016）. ConclusionThe acupuncture method of regulating qi and blood， nourishing mind and benefiting intelligence can improve the cognitive function of breast cancer patients with CRCI， and its mechanism may be related to improving the functional activities of hippocampus， amygdala and temporal lobe， as well as the functional connections of left temporal pole-temporal middle gyrus and right posterior cerebellar lobe.
