The new synergistic education model integrating the “five arts” medical talent cultivation philosophy and the red doctor spirit could form a virtuous cycle of “spiritual guidance-technological breakthrough-spiritual reshaping” in the field of military medical education. Addressing the existing challenges in the process of military medical cadets’ training, such as mission awareness, humanistic care, battlefield rescue, and emergency response, this study proposed integrating the red doctor spirit, characterized by political steadfastness, healing the wounded and rescuing the dying, selfless devotion, relentless pursuit of excellence, and seeking truth and innovation, into the training system under the guidance of the “five arts” philosophy, including establishing a foundation through Daoist arts, forging the soul with benevolence, empowering through academia, tempering through technology, and nurturing the mind through artistry. A cultivation model was constructed featuring “moral education as the priority and cultivating through soul-forging; military spirit as the root and medical professionalism as the foundation and training for warfare; mastery in medicine for battlefield success and cultivating talent through rigorous scholarship.” Furthermore, through pathways including the optimization and implementation of the curriculum system, the enhancement and innovation of practical teaching, the development and training of the faculty team, and the improvement and innovation of the evaluation system, this model assisted in achieve the goal of cultivating compound talents with “the red medicine essence plus the five arts foundation.” These talents also built their foundation on the “five arts” philosophy, forge their spirit with the red doctor spirit, and was tempered with battlefield adaptability.

The red doctor spirit is the advanced culture of the Communist Party of China formed under a specific historical and cultural background. It can be summarized as “political firmness, excellent technology, working hard, and healing the wounded and rescuing the dying.” This content has many hidden similarities and integrations with the goal of cultivating humanistic literacy for medical students in military medical universities. This paper aimed to identify the important connection points between the red doctor spirit and the contents and goals of medical humanities teaching, as well as integrate the red doctor spirit into medical humanities teaching by various dimensions, including systematic reconstruction of textbook content, immersive innovation in teaching form, three-dimensional support in resource construction, and innovative implementation of narrative medicine teaching. It also further explored the extension of the red doctor spirit in military medical humanistic literacy, namely, revolutionary humanism and revolutionary heroism, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of medical humanistic teaching.

Objective:
This study aimed to compare outcomes and adverse events of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) undergoing concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) with cisplatin single-agent chemotherapy vs. CCRT with cisplatin combined with paclitaxel dualagent therapy. The primary outcomes are overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), local recurrence (LR), distant metastasis (DM) and the occurrence of adverse events.
Methods:
This retrospective cohort study included patients with FIGO 2009 stage IB1-IVA cervical squamous cell carcinoma undergoing radical CCRT. Patients were divided into groups A and B, treatment outcomes were compared between the two groups after 1:1 proportional propensity score matching.
Results:
Medical records of 1,203 patients were reviewed and 572 patients were finally included for propensity score matching. After propensity score matching, 121 pairs of patients were selected for analysis. The OS, PFS, LR and DM rates were 78.5% and 83.5% (p=0.417), 73.3% and 78.5% (p=0.312), 6.6% and 2.5% (p=0.123), 19% and 15.7% (p=0.497) for groups A and B, respectively. Further subgroup analysis according to stage and lymph node metastatic status showed no difference in survival between the two groups. The incidence of grade 3–4 acute haematological toxicities was different between the two groups (p<0.05).
Conclusion
Cisplatin combined with paclitaxel CCRT couldn’t improve the survival rates of patients with LACC. However, the hematological toxicity of combination chemotherapy is more severe but controllable. Cisplatin single-agent therapy remains the first choice for CCRT. Further prospective studies are indicated to provide evidence for the efficacy of cisplatin plus paclitaxel in dual-agent concurrent therapy.

Objective:To explore the predictive value of very low frequency (VLF) for the efficacy of vitamin D treatment in children with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS).Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted. A total of 65 POTS children from the Department of Pediatrics of the Second Hospital of Lanzhou University from November 2023 to May 2024 were selected as the research subjects, while 102 healthy children from the same period were selected as the control group. The 25 (OH) D levels between POTS children and healthy children were compared. The frequency of eight main symptoms, including palpitations, headache, cold sweat, blurred vision, chest tightness, dizziness, fainting, and digestive discomfort in the POTS group were analyzed, the symptom scores of the orthostatic intolerance were calculated, and the parameters related to short-range heart rate variability (HRV) during the upright test, head-up tilt test (HUTT) were collected. The correlation between 25 (OH) D levels and symptom scores of orthostatic intolerance symptoms and HRV parameters in children with POTS were analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. The total symptom scores of children with POTS were compared for 3 months before treatment and 2 months after treatment with vitamin D 800 U/d. The difference in score before and after treatment was ≥2 as responsive group, and the score difference before and after treatment was <2 as non-responsive group. The demographic characteristics including age, gender, height, weight, body mass index, as well as HRV parameters such as the standard deviation of nn intervals (SDNN), the standard deviation of the average NN intervals (SDANN), the root mean square of successive differences (rMSSD), low-frequency (LF), high-frequency (HF), very-low-frequency (VLF) were compared between the responsive group and non-responsive group. Multivariate Logistic regression was analyzed to screen independent influencing factors of vitamin D treatment efficacy for POTS. The marker molecules related to the efficacy of vitamin D treatment in children with POTS were analyzed through receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:A total of 167 children were included in this study. There were 65 children in the POTS group, 38 males and 27 females, with the age of (10.6±2.2) years. There were 102 healthy children in the control group, 53 males and 49 females, with the age of (11.2±1.8) years.There was no statistically significant difference in gender and age between the two groups (both P>0.05). The serum 25 (OH) D level in children in the POTS group was (37±18)nmol/L, lower than that in the control group (61±17)nmol/L ( P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum 25(OH)D was positively correlated with VLF, SDNN and HF ( r=0.43, 0.65, 0.36, respectively, all P<0.05). Among the POTS children, there were 48 cases in responsive group and 17 cases in non-responsive group. Univariate analysis revealed that responsive group exhibited significantly lower values in age, SDNN, SDANN, and VLF compared to the non-responsive group (all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=1.47, 95% CI 1.08-2.01), SDNN ( OR=1.01, 95% CI 1.00-1.22) and VLF ( OR=1.01, 95% CI 1.00-1.15) were independent influencing factors in the effect of vitamin D in POTS children (all P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of VLF predicting response to vitamin D treatment for POTS was 0.72 (95% CI 0.58-0.85, P=0.008). When the cutoff value was 1 272 ms 2, the sensitivity and specificity were both 70%. Conclusion:VLF may help predict the efficacy of vitamin D treatment in children with POTS.

Objective:To explore the screening value of platelet parameters from blood cell analysis for MYH9-related disorders(MYH9-RD).Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted with 38 patients diagnosed with MYH9-RD at Shenzhen Children's Hospital from May 1, 2016, to August 31, 2024, including 24 males and 14 females; the median age was 11.5 (3.8, 35) years; categorized by gene mutation location into "head region" ( n=8 ) and "tail region" ( n=30); and by clinical manifestations into " isolated hematological manifestations" ( n=16) and "hematological manifestations with extra-hematological involvement"( n=22). The control groups included 39 cases of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), 38 cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and 40 healthy individuals. Platelet-related parameters were detected by hematology analyzer, and platelet counts and sizes were confirmed by manually counting and microscopic observation. Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare platelet parameters between MYH9-RD and control groups. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to assess the diagnostic efficacy of platelet parameters for MYH9-RD. Results:In MYH9-RD patients the median value of mean platelet volume (MPV) was 13.4 (11.2, 14.7) fl, immature platelet fraction (IPF) was 52.7% (43.5%, 58.0%), platelet large cell ratio(PLCR) was 57.6 %(45.0%, 62.9%), and microscopic large platelet ratio (PLCR-M) was 30.0% (25.0%, 30.0%).And those values weresignificantly higher than in ITP, ALL, and healthy controls (all P<0.05). Patients with MYH9 gene "head region" mutations had a lower platelet count [24.5 (15.0, 47.5)×10 9/L]than those with "tail region" mutations [69.0 (49.5, 86.3) ×10 9/L]( Z=-3.493, P<0.001), but a higher IPF ( t=2.024, P=0.044).Patients with "extra-hematological involvement had a lower platelet count than those with "isolated hematological manifestations" ( t=-2.015, P=0.043). The optimal cutoff value for diagnosing MYH9-RD with IPF was 26.7%, with a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 98.7%; the area under the curve was 0.999 (95% CI 0.995-1.000), which was superior toMPV, PLCR and PLCR-M parameters. Conclusion:IPF is superior to other platelet parameters sush as MPV,showing high diagnostic efficacy in distinguishing MYH9-RD from ITP and ALL. It can be used as a simple and effective indicator for early screening of MYH9-RD.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between the expression of the immunohistochemical marker cytokeratin (CK)-19 and the clinical characteristics and prognosis of dual-phenotype hepatocellular carcinoma (DPHCC).Methods:The data of patients diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who underwent surgical resection were collected. DPHCC cases were screened by immunohistochemistry, followed up, and grouped. The correlation between the expression of the immunohistochemical marker CK-19 and the clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis of DPHCC was analyzed by statistical methods. The enumeration data were compared using the χ2 test or Fisher's exact probability method between groups. Results:The expression of CK19 was significantly correlated with factors such as the tumor size, histological grade, liver tissue cirrhosis surroundings, microvascular invasion (MVI), and serum carbohydrate antigen 199 (CA-199) levels in DPHCC, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). There was no significant correlation between the expression of CK19 and the gender, age, tumor necrosis, multiple lesions, liver capsule invasion, serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), and immunohistochemical CK7 and mucin 1 (MUC-1) in DPHCC patients, and the differences were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The results of univariate analysis showed that immunohistochemical CK19 expression, MVI, number of lesions, tumor necrosis, tumor differentiation degree, serum AFP, and carbohydrate antigen 199 levels were related factors affecting the prognosis in DPHCC patients ( P<0.05); while gender, age, capsule invasion, tumor size, and expression of immunohistochemical markers (vascular endothelial growth factor, CK7, MUC-1) were not significantly correlated with the prognosis in DPHCC patients ( P>0.05). The results of multivariate analysis showed that tumor necrosis ( P=0.042, 95% CI: 1.031-5.501) and serum AFP levels were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis in DPHCC patients ( P<0.001, 95% CI: 2.581-24.075). Conclusions:The expression of CK19 is closely related to the prognosis of patients with DPHCC. Patients with high CK19 expression have faster disease progression than those with low CK19 expression. Furthermore, the overall survival rate of patients with high CK19 expression is significantly lower than that of patients with low CK19 expression, which is a risk factor for poor prognosis in patients with DPHCC.
