Clinical practice guidelines represent the best recommendations for patient care. They are developed through systematically reviewing currently available clinical evidence and weighing the relative benefits and risks of various interventions. However, clinical practice guidelines have to go through a long translation cycle from development and revision to clinical promotion and application, facing problems such as scattered distribution, high duplication rate, and low actual utilization. At present, the clinical practice guideline information platform can directly or indirectly solve the problems related to the lengthy revision cycles, decentralized dissemination and limited application of clinical practice guidelines. Therefore, this paper systematically examines different types of clinical practice guideline information platforms and investigates their corresponding challenges and emerging trends in platform design, data integration, and practical implementation, with the aim of clarifying the current status of this field and providing valuable reference for future research on clinical practice guideline information platforms.

Objective: To explore the potential causal association between adolescent compulsive behaviour and smartphone addiction based on longitudinal data, so as to provide reference for the establishment of adolescent smartphone addiction interventions. Methods: A preliminary survey and follow-up were conducted on 8 907 middle and high school students in a district of Shenzhen in 2022 and 2023, respectively. Compulsive behaviours were measured by using the Mental Health Inventory for Middle School Students-60 Items (MMHI-60), smartphone addiction was assessed by using the Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version ( SAS- SV), and the associations between compulsive behaviours and smartphone addiction were analysed by using multilevel mixed-effects models and subgroup analyses. Results: Smartphone addiction detection rates among middle school students were significantly associated with genders, father s education level, mother s education level, study load subgroups, and whether or not they were single-parent families, and there were statistical differences ( χ 2=17.21-175.34, P <0.05). Students with compulsive behaviours were 2.98 times more likely to develop smartphone addiction than those without compulsive behaviours ( OR=2.98, 95%CI=2.77-3.22, P <0.05). Subgroup analysis of middle school students without smartphone addiction in the first year found that compulsive behaviours significantly predicted smartphone addiction ( OR= 1.76 , 95%CI=1.54-2.01, P <0.05). Conclusion There is a potential causal association between obsessive-compulsive behaviours and smartphone addiction in middle school students, and obsessive-compulsive behaviours in middle school students could significantly predicted the occurrence of smartphone addiction.

In recent years,cardiovascular MRI(CMRI)technology has made significant advances,and multimodal CMRI imaging has been useful to display anatomical structure of the valves,to assess the severity of valvular disease,and to quantify the volume of cardiac chambers and myocardial fibrosis,as well as led to progress in judging mitral stenosis,mitral valve closure insufficiency,and risk stratification.Hence they have been widely used in the assessment of mitral valve lesions.The research progresses of CMRI for assessing mitral valve lesions were reviewed in this article.

Objectives:To investigate the clinical feasibility of three-dimensional(3D)high-resolution late gadolinium enhancement(LGE)MRI in accessing left atrial myocardial fibrosis in patients with atrial fibrillation(AF). Methods:A total of 34 AF patients referred for hybrid surgical ablation were retrospectively enrolled in this study.3D-LGE-MRI images were acquired by Siemens 3.0 T machine and analyzed by ADAS post-processing software by two experienced radiologists to obtain parameters such as the area and the area percentage of LGE.Regional analysis was performed by one of the two radiologists at ten left atrial segments.The Kappa test was used to assess the agreement for scoring image quality,and the interclass correlation coefficient(ICC)was used to evaluate the interobserver agreement of LGE parameters.The parameters of left atrial morphology,area(and area percentage)of LGE,and location of LGE were compared between patients with persistent AF and paroxysmal AF. Results:Images of all 34 patients were considered to have diagnostic value.The scores of the overall image quality and the clarity of the left atrial wall evaluated by two radiologists were(2.88±0.64)points and(3.26±0.75)points(radiologist 1),(2.97±0.58)points and(3.24±0.70)points(radiologist 2),respectively.The corresponding Kappa values were 0.724 and 0.859.Both the area and the area percentage of LGE showed good consistency among observers,and the ICCs were 0.969 and 0.950,respectively.The difference in the area of LGE and the area percentage of LGE between patients with paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation was similar(both P＞0.05).Compared with patients with paroxysmal AF,patients with persistent AF had a higher Utah stage and more severe myocardial fibrosis in the right inferior pulmonary vein antrum and the left atrial septum(all P＜0.05). Conclusions:3D high-resolution LGE-MRI provides a non-invasive way to visualize and quantify left atrial myocardial fibrosis.The extent of left atrial fibrosis in patients with persistent AF is more severe than that in patients with paroxysmal AF,with a preferential distribution in the right inferior pulmonary vein antrum and the left atrial septum.

OBJECTIVE To study the relationship between frequency specific free-field tone burst cortical auditory evoked potentials(CAEP)and aided behavioral audiometry to provide rapid,reliable insights for predicting hearing intervention efficiency in hard to cooperate cochlear implant patients.METHODS The study comprised of 22 cochlear implant pediatric patients(22 ears)free-field tone burst CAEP P1 response thresholds,free-field behavioral thresholds determined within the group across frequencies 0.5,1,2 and 4 kHz were collected for correlation analysis.RESULTS The free-field tone burst CAEP P1 response thresholds and free-field behavioral audiometric thresholds in cochlear implant pediatric patients for testing frequencies 0.5,1,2,4 kHz were compared and r correlation coefficients found were 0.567,0.670,0.637 and 0.762 across the frequencies respectively(P<0.01).The mean difference between free-field CAEP P1 response threshold and free-field behavioral thresholds for cochlear implant patients differ by 5-8 dB with statistical significance.CONCLUSION Free-field tone burst CAEP can be used for cochlear implant programming validation in patients that fail to cooperate in behavioral testing,thus is applicable in cochlear implant programming clinical practice.

Objective To observe the clinical application value of total free-breathing cardiac MR(CMR)examination preliminarily.Methods Two patients who underwent CMR scanning under free-breathing state,including cine,motion correction T1 and T2 mapping,blood flow imaging,and late gadolinium enhancement scanning were retrospectively enrolled,and the qualities of the above images were evaluated and compared with that of conventional CMR images under breath-holding state.Results No significant difference of imaging quality was found between total free-breathing and conventional breath-holding CMR.The differences of left ventricular ejection fraction,cardiac output,left ventricular end-diastolic volume index and left ventricular mass measured based on CMR images under different breath conditions were limited.Conclusion Total free-breathing CMR was feasible in clinical practice,which could provide"one-stop"evaluation of cardiac structure,function and myocardial histological characteristics,hence having promising clinical prospects.

Objective:To analyze the molecular characteristics of antibiotic resistance in Helicobacter pylori(HP)and provide a molecular bio-logical basis for clinical eradication of HP by means of rational antibiotic use.Methods:From February 2019 to November 2023,1,144 pa-tients at the Gansu Wuwei Cancer Hospital who tested positive for HP using the 14C-urea breath test were enrolled in the study.Antibiotic resistance and related molecular characteristics of HP,and CYP2C19 polymorphisms in the patients were detected by diffusion drug suscept-ibility testing,drug resistance gene testing,and next-generation sequencing,respectively.Results:Among the six antibiotics assessed,the resistance rate and the prevalence of resistance genes(rdxA)were highest for metronidazole(92.00%and 86.12%,respectively),and lowest for amoxicillin(Pbp1)(11.78%and 37.11%,respectively).The prevalence of CYP2C19 alleles showed that 46.77%,44.58%,and 8.65%of par-ticipants were fast,medium,and slow metabolizers,respectively.Of the participants,148(18.55%)had immunohistochemical sphericity.The eradication rate of HP lower using conventional treatment regimens than that using personalized treatment regimens(χ2=8.627,P=0.003).The HP eradication rate was higher among patients with a first diagnosis of drug resistancebased on molecular testing,than that in patients undergoing retreatment(χ2=6.242,P=0.012).Conclusions:The prevalence of amoxicillin-resistant HP is low in Wuwei City,which has a high incidence of gastric cancer.Molecular diagnosis of antimicrobial resistance could improve the HP eradication rate and provide a refer-ence for rational use of antibiotics in clinical practice.
