Objective Jejunal interposition is an important option for restoring gastrointestinal continuity in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable for reconstruction due to previous gastrectomy, tumor involvement, failed gastric conduit, or other constraints. Although the jejunum offers a caliber similar to the esophagus, a rich blood supply, and preserved peristaltic function, anatomical variations in mesenteric length and vascular arcades render long-segment and high-level reconstruction susceptible to excessive tension, mesenteric torsion, venous congestion, and inadequate distal perfusion. This consensus aims to provide standardized recommendations for the application of jejunal interposition in this specific patient population. Methods This consensus was developed in accordance with the WHO Handbook for Guideline Development and Chinese national guideline development standards, with reference to the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ(AGREE Ⅱ), Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT), and Scientific, Transparent and Applicable Rankings (STAR) checklists. The project was registered on the international practice guidelines registry platform (PREPARE-2026CN1384). The working group systematically searched Chinese and English evidence addressing 12 clinical questions. Evidence was graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) 2009 system, with structured appraisal of risk of bias, inconsistency, indirectness, and imprecision. Recommendations were formulated through two rounds of Delphi surveys and a face-to-face consensus meeting, with an agreement threshold of ≥75%. Results The consensus generated 12 recommendations covering indications, selection between jejunum and colon, preoperative assessment, surgical approach and reconstruction route, pedicled jejunal interposition (PJI), supercharged pedicled jejunal interposition (SPJ), indocyanine green (ICG) perfusion assessment, perioperative nutrition, management of anastomotic leakage, long-term follow-up, and special treatment scenarios. Given that the available direct evidence is predominantly derived from single-center retrospective cohorts and case series, recommendations extrapolated from general esophagectomy or other gastrointestinal surgical evidence are deliberately phrased with caution. Conclusion Jejunal interposition is a safe and effective approach for digestive tract reconstruction in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable. This consensus emphasizes that clinical decision-making should be individualized based on the patient's prior treatment history, reconstruction height, vascular anatomy, technical availability, and institutional experience in the Chinese context.

[Purpose]To analyze the cost-effectiveness and cost-utility conducted on the lung can-cer screening project in urban areas of Anhui Province,and to provide suggestions for the formu-lation of lung cancer screening policies in Anhui Province.[Methods]A Markov decision model for low-dose computed tomography(LDCT)lung cancer screening intervention was established based on on-site survey data and literature data.The development of the population under different interventions was simulated,using saved life years(LYS)and quality-adjusted life years(QALY)as effectiveness indicators,to conduct cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analyses of different screening strategies.Cost data were discounted at a 3％discount rate.[Results]The screening schemes of once a year,once every two years,once every three years,and once every five years all meet the cost-effectiveness principle for saving one LYS or QALY.Among them,the best screening strategy in terms of cost-effectiveness and cost-utility was the LDCT lung cancer screening strategy once every two years,with costs of 72 441.54 CNY and 71 050.24 CNY,respectively.[Conclusion]The LDCT lung cancer screening program demonstrates good cost-effectiveness,with strategies of dif-ferent screening frequencies being viable options.The optimal screening strategy is screening once every two years.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of light music therapy on delirium in intensive care unit (ICU) patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation, and provide evidence-based support for clinical prevention of delirium. METHODS: A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. 140 patients with invasive mechanical ventilation admitted to the department of respiratory and critical care medicine of First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from January 2024 to January 2025 were enrolled. The patients were divided into intervention group and control group using a random number table method. The control group received routine treatment and nursing care, while the intervention group received light music therapy three times a day for 30 minutes each time for 7 consecutive days. The confusion assessment method-ICU (CAM-ICU) was used to evaluate delirium, and the incidence of delirium within 7 days was statistically analyzed. Richmond agitation-sedation score (RASS), critical care pain observation tool (CPOT) score, mechanical ventilation duration, the length of ICU stay, and ICU stay expenses were record. RESULTS: 129 cases were ultimately included, including 64 cases in the control group and 65 cases in the intervention group. There was no statistically significant difference in baseline data between the two groups, indicating comparability. The incidence of delirium in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the control group (27.7% vs. 51.6%, χ ² = 7.687, P = 0.006). There was no significantly difference in RASS score between the two groups before enrollment (P = 0.840). After intervention, the RASS score in the intervention group significantly decreased, from 2.00 points on the 1st day of enrollment to 0.00 points on the 7th day, while the control group only decreased from 2.00 points to 1.50 points. The decreasing trend of the intervention group was more pronounced, especially on the 3rd day (P = 0.047) and the 7th day (P =0.005), with significant differences between the groups. The time effect (F = 18.929, P < 0.001), group effect (F = 6.655, P = 0.011), and time group interaction effect (F = 7.372, P < 0.001) of the two groups of RASS score were significant, suggesting that light music therapy has better timeliness and sustainability in improving patients' sedation status. There was no significantly difference in CPOT score between the two groups before enrollment (P = 0.902). After intervention, the CPOT score in the intervention group rapidly decreased from 3.00 points before enrollment to 1.00 points on the 1st day, and continued until the 7th day, while the control group showed a slower decrease from 2.50 points to 2.00 points and only dropped to 1.00 points on the 7th day. There were significant differences on 1st day and 3rd day between two groups (both P < 0.05). The time effect (F = 28.125, P < 0.001), group effect (F = 11.580, P = 0.001), and time group interaction effect (F = 4.048, P = 0.020) of the two groups of CPOT score were significant, indicating that light music therapy has better pain control, but the interaction effect is low, indicating that the impact of the intervention on the CPOT score was mainly concentrated in the early stage (1-3 days), and the long-term effect may be influenced by other factors. Compared with the control group, the intervention group showed a significant reduction in mechanical ventilation time (days: 10.57±2.94 vs. 11.95±3.74, P = 0.021) and the length of ICU stay (days: 14.91±4.37 vs. 17.53±4.83, P = 0.002). The ICU hospitalization expenses of the intervention group was slightly lower than that of the control group [ten thousand yuan: 22.431 (12.473, 28.489) vs. 29.362 (11.996, 41.389)], but the difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.086). CONCLUSIONS Light music therapy can effectively reduce the incidence of delirium in patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation, improve consciousness and pain perception, shorten mechanical ventilation time and hospital stay, and has significant clinical promotion value high-quality studies.

Objective:To examine the efficacy and experience of staged and segmented two hybrid surgeries for total repair of Debakey type Ⅰ aortic dissection (TIAD).Methods:This study was a retrospective case series. The clinic data of 10 patients with acute TIAD who were admitted to the Department of Cardiac Surgery, Second Hospital of Lanzhou University or the First People′s Hospital of Lanzhou, between January 2016 and August 2022, were retrospectively studied. Ten patients underwent hybrid surgeries in two hospitalizations (stages), including 7 males and 3 females with an age of (60±7) years (range: 49 to 71 years). In stage 1, the first type Ⅱ hybrid arch repair was performed to treat the ascending, total arch, and descending thoracic aorta for acute TIAD without circulatory arrest. In stage 2, the second hybrid surgery including infrarenal abdominal aorta replacement, visceral arteries bypass and endovascular thoracoabdominal aortic repair was performed to treat residual thoracoabdominal aortic dissection after the first hybrid operation (segmented). Basic data, preoperative concomitant diseases, high-risk factors, surgical approaches and postoperative complications of all important organs, as well as CT imaging were analyzed.Results:There was no death in the 20 hybrid surgical procedures. In stage 1 type Ⅱ hybrid surgery, 4 cases underwent reconstruction of the aortic sinutubular junction, while Bentall and David surgery was performed for 3 cases, respectively. A patient received coronary artery bypass grafting. Then all patients were sequentially treated with arch debranching and thoracic aortic endovascular repair. Postoperative complications included renal insufficiency (4/10), hemofiltration (1/10), hypoxemia (4/10), neurologic event (1/10) and type Ⅱ endoleak (1/10). Complete false lumen thrombosis occurred in 9/10 of the patients. All complications recovered successfully at discharge and the average hospital stay was (21±4) days (range: 16 to 28 days) in the first hospitalization. At stage 2, the second hybrid surgery was successfully performed in all patients. No paraplegia, hepatic or renal insufficiency, or endoleak occurred. However, branch graft embolism of the left renal artery was found in one patient 3 days after laparotomy, as well as of superior mesenteric artery in another. Superior mesenteric artery occlusion was successfully treated by endovascular recanalization. Complete false lumen thrombosis occurred in all patients. Although all patients had different degrees of intestinal dysfunction, they were gradually relieved at discharge, and the average hospital stay was (19±2)days (range:16 to 21 days) in the second hospitalization. During follow-up, CT angiography showed aortic remodeling in all patients.Conclusion:Staged and segmented two hybrid surgeries are safe and feasible for total repair of Debakey type Ⅰ aortic dissection and are associated with acceptable early and midterm outcomes.

Objective:To explore the clinical features and genetic etiology of a child with Char syndrome.Methods:A child who was presented at the Department of Child Health, Henan Children′s Hospital in February 2022 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the child was collected, and peripheral blood samples of the child and her parents were collected for the extraction of genomic DNA. Whole exome sequencing was carried out, and candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing and bioinformatic analysis.Results:The child had mainly manifested facial dysmorphism, patent ductus arteriosus, growth retardation, curving of fifth fingers and middle toes. Whole exome sequencing revealed that she has harbored a heterozygous c. 944A>C (p.Glu315Ala) variant of the TFAP2B gene, which was verified to be de novo by Sanger sequencing. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the variant was rated to be likely pathogenic (PM1+ PM2_Supporting+ PM6+ PP3). Conclusion:The heterozygous c. 944A>C (p.Glu315Ala) variant of the TFAP2B gene probably underlay the Char syndrome in this child. Above finding has expanded the mutational and phenotypic spectra of the TFAP2B gene, which has facilitated early identification and diagnosis of Char syndrome.

Objective:To compare the application effects of three different extubation techniques in patients with mechanical ventilation in intensive care unit (ICU).Methods:A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted. Mechanical ventilation patients admitted to the critical care department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from July to November 2023 were enrolled. According to the random number table generated by Excel, the patients were divided into negative pressure group, positive pressure group 1 and positive pressure group 2, with 45 cases in each group. On the basis of routine nursing, the negative pressure group used the negative pressure extubation technique to remove the tracheal catheter. In the positive pressure group, the pressure support (PS) and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of the positive pressure group 1 were 7 cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O≈0.098 kPa) and 5 cmH 2O, and the PS and PEEP of the positive pressure group 2 were 15 cmH 2O and 10 cmH 2O. The main outcome measures were extubation related complications, including tachypnea, severe cough, sore throat, upper airway obstruction spasm, extubation failure, hypoxemia, and hypercapnia. The secondary outcome measures were the variation of heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure and blood oxygen saturation before and 1, 15 and 30 minutes after extubation. Results:Finally, 42 patients were included in each group. There were no significant differences in gender, age, catheter retention days, duration of mechanical ventilation, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ), catheter model and diagnosis among the three groups, which were comparable. There were statistically significant differences in the incidence of tachypnea, severe cough, sore throat, upper airway obstruction spasm, hypoxemia and hypercapnia among the three groups, while there was no statistically significant difference in the failure rate of extubation. The incidence of tachypnea, severe cough, sore throat, upper airway obstruction spasm, hypoxemia and hypercapnia after extubation in positive pressure group 1 and positive pressure group 2 were lower than those in negative pressure group (7.14%, 9.52% vs. 33.33%; 7.14%, 4.76% vs. 28.57%; 61.90%, 52.38% vs. 88.10%; 11.90%, 19.05% vs. 45.24%; 7.14%, 7.14% vs. 30.95%; 4.76%, 2.38% vs. 28.57%; all P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in extubation related complications between group 1 and group 2. There were significant differences in the time effect of heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure and blood oxygen saturation 30 minutes after extubation among three groups ( F values were 145.792, 49.749, 22.486, 23.622 and 242.664, respectively, all P < 0.01). The intergroup effect of blood oxygen saturation was statistically significant ( F = 3.835, P = 0.024), and the blood oxygen saturation in positive pressure group 1 and positive pressure group 2 were higher than those in negative pressure group 1 minute and 30 minutes after extubation (1 minute after extubation: 0.97±0.02, 0.97±0.02 vs. 0.95±0.02; 30 minutes after extubation: 1.00±0.01, 1.00±0.01 vs. 0.99±0.02, all P < 0.05). The interaction effects of heart rate and blood oxygen saturation were statistically significant ( F values were 3.512 and 7.226, respectively, both P < 0.01). Conclusions:Compared with negative pressure extubation, positive pressure extubation can effectively reduce extubation related complications in ICU mechanically ventilated patients. It is beneficial to maintain stable blood oxygen saturation within 30 minutes after extubation, and has better clinical application effects. It is recommended to use low pressure extubation.

Objective:To investigate the factors affecting the change of serum calcium and phosphorus after total parathyroidectomy for secondary hyperparathyroidism(SHPT).Method:Sixty patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism undergoing total parathyroidectomy were selected.Gender, age, hemodialysis time, bone pain time, intravenous calcium supplementation time, blood parathyroid hormone(PTH), parathyroid mass, blood calcium, phosphorus and alkaline phosphatase at admission were tested to compare the correlation between postoperative calcium and phosphorus changes.Result:Blood calcium was: (2.50±0.02), (2.27±0.03), (1.97±0.03), (1.95±0.03), (1.95±0.03), (2.03±0.02) mmol/L at admission, 6 hours after surgery, 1, 2, 3 days after surgery, and when discharged. Blood phosphorus was: (2.32±0.07), (1.95±0.05), (1.65±0.06), (1.44±0.05), (1.35±0.36), (1.14±0.04) mmol/L and when discharged.There are differences between pairwise comparisons ( F=100.979, P<0.05; F=118.910, P<0.05). The blood PTH was (1 791±760) pg/ml, and the postoperative intravenous calcium supplementation time was (7.13±2.34) days. Blood PTH was positively correlated with bone pain time, blood phosphorus and parathyroid mass at admission ( t=-2.199, P<0.05; t=4.718, P<0.05; t=2.507, P<0.05). The time of intravenous calcium supplementation was positively correlated with ALP at admission ( t=3.098, P<0.05). Preoperative serum PTH > 1 430 pg/ml or ALP > 191 mmol/L were prone to hypocalcemia on the first day after surgery. Conclusions:The longer bone pain time, the higher blood phosphorus and the more obvious parathyroid hyperplasia were, the higher PTH was. The higher the ALP, the longer the time of intravenous calcium supplementation. Preoperative serum PTH and ALP values can be used as predictors of hypocalcemia on the first day after surgery.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and application value of an automated method for generation of surgical records for resection of benign soft tissue tumor based on dense video descriptions.Methods:The Transformer deep learning model was used to establish an automated surgical record generation system to analyze the surgical videos of 30 patients with benign soft tissue tumor who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedics, Xijing Hospital, Air Force Military Medical University from September 2021 to August 2023. The patient data were randomly divided into training sets, validation sets, and test sets in a ratio of 8∶1∶1. In the test sets, 7 evaluation indexes, BLEU-1, BLEU-2, BLEU-3, BLEU-4, Meteor, Rouge, and CIDEr, were used to evaluate the text quality of surgical records generated by the model. The text of surgical records was compared with the classical algorithm, dense video captioning with paralled decoding (PDVC) in the field of video-intensive description.Results:The automated surgical record generation system running in the test sets showed the following: BLEU-1, BLEU-2, BLEU-3, BLEU-4, Rouge, Meteor, and CIDEr were 16.80, 15.23, 13.01, 11.68, 16.01, 12.67 and 62.30, respectively. The operation of the classical algorithm PDVC showed the following: BLEU-1, BLEU-2, BLEU-3, BLEU-4, Rouge, Meteor, and CIDEr were 15.63, 14.17, 11.90, 10.45, 12.97, 11.99 and 53.64, respectively. The automated surgical record generation system resulted in significant improvements compared with PDVC in all evaluation indexes. The BLEU-4, Rouge, Meteor, and CIDEr were improved by 1.23, 3.04, 0.68 and 8.66, respectively, demonstrating that the system proposed can better capture the key data in the video to help generate more effective text records.Conclusion:As the automated surgical record generation system shows good performance in generating surgical records for resection of benign soft tissue tumor based on intensive video descriptions, it can be applied in clinical practice.
