Objective:
To prospectively evaluate the feasibility, accuracy, and safety of multiparameter MRI-guided percutaneous biopsy using a 1T open MRI scanner for evaluating suspicious centrally located lung lesions with associated post-obstructive atelectasis.
Materials and Methods:
In this single-center study, MRI-guided percutaneous coaxial cutting biopsy was performed for 107 suspicious central lung lesions with associated post-obstructive atelectasis in 107 patients between July 2015 and December 2020. A fast T2-weighted imaging (T2WI)-turbo spin echo (TSE) sequence and an enhanced fast T1-weighted imaging (T1WI)-TSE sequence were used to identify, localize, and biopsy lung lesions, and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) was used as a supplementary sequence for identifying the lesion location. The final diagnosis was confirmed by surgical histopathology or clinical follow-up for a minimum of 24 months. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for diagnosing lung malignancies were calculated, and the complications were recorded for each case.
Results:
Using multiparameter MRI, central lung lesions could be clearly distinguished from post-obstructive atelectasis in 96 patients (89.7%). The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of MRI-guided percutaneous biopsy for diagnosing lung malignancy was 97.0% (98/101), 100% (6/6), and 97.2% (104/107), respectively. Self-limited hemoptysis occurred in three patients. Pneumothorax occurred in five patients, of which none required pleural drainage. No serious procedure-related complications were observed.
Conclusion
As a technology that does not involve ionizing radiation, multiparameter MRI-guided percutaneous coaxial cutting biopsy is a safe and accurate diagnostic technique for evaluating centrally located lung lesions associated with post-obstructive atelectasis.

Nutrition dietary prescription (NDP) refers to quantified recipes or dietary plans that are developed and implemented by trained physicians, clinical dietitians, or registered dietitians to target the main issues faced by individual chronic disease patients based on nutritional screening, nutritional assessment, diagnosis of malnutrition, and comprehensive evaluation. As an important part of nutritional management of chronic diseases, NDP is recommended to be implemented with exercise prescriptions and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) food therapies to improve the nutritional status and clinical outcomes of patients with chronic diseases, thereby enhancing their quality of life and reducing medical costs.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of a preventive workflow in participatory observation based on healthcare failure mode and effect analysis(HFMEA)in reducing intraoperative acquired pressure injury(IAPI)in patients undergoing spinal surgery,and to provide evidences for prospective nursing management.Methods A preventive workflow of participatory observation-based HFMEA was established,which included defining HFMEA topic,forming a multidisciplinary team,creating a process map(through participatory observation),conducting failure mode and hazard analysis(using a Hazard scoring matrix and decision tree analysis,and identifying the causes of key failure through Pareto chart analysis),implementing improvement actions,and tracking effectiveness.Ultimately,11 high-risk failure modes were identified for further improvement:poor design of form/information system,heavy workload and fast pace,lack of departmental regulations,risk factors of IAPI,and unclear duty and responsibility in a multidisciplinary team.A series measures for improvement were developed and implemented based on the identified key causes.A pre-and post-control study was carried out.A total of 180 patients who received spinal surgery between November and April 2024 and received traditional preventive methods were assigned to a control group.While further 218 patients who received spinal surgery between May and December 2023 were assigned to the trial group with the participatory observation on the basis of HFMEA prevention workflow.IAPI incidence rate and severity were compared between the two groups,as well as the completion rate of preoperative IAPI risk assessment in the trial group.Results The trial group demonstrated significantly lower IAPI incidence and severity compared with those in the control group(P<0.05).In the trial group,178 patients(98.92%)completed the preoperative IAPI risk assessment,and 172 patients(95.47%)completed the intraoperative assessment.Conclusion The participatory observation based HFMEA prevention workflow can effectively reduce an incidence and severity of IAPI in patients undergoing spinal surgery,ensure patient safety and thereby enhance the quality of nursing management.

A young male patient was diagnosed with aplastic anemia accompanied by paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria(PNH),and achieved only partial remission after immunosuppressive therapy.Over the past year,his anemia worsened,leading to transfusion dependence,which was considered to be caused by active he-molysis of PNH.Despite switching to eculizumab treatment,his anemia continued to deteriorate.A detailed medical history revealed chronic periodontal infection,with periodontal pain,purulent discharge,and fever in the past month.Multidisciplinary discussion suggested that chronic odontogenic infection activating the comple-ment system was the primary cause of aggravated PNH hemolysis,and the acute infection affected the efficacy of eculizumab.Based on multidisciplinary consultation,a treatment plan was formulated,including intravenous antibiotics combined with periodontal irrigation and tooth extraction to control odontogenic infection,while con-tinuing regular eculizumab infusion.The patient's symptoms improved,hemoglobin levels rose rapidly,and he was no longer transfusion-dependent.This case provides an empirical reference for addressing difficulties en-countered in the treatment of rare diseases with new drugs through multidisciplinary collaborative diagnosis and treatment.
