On October 9， 2024， the General Office of the National Health Commission， the General Office of the Ministry of Education， the General Department of the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine， and the General Department of the National Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention jointly issued the Action Plan for Enhancing Medical Humanistic Care （2024-2027）， stating that medical humanistic spirit is a concrete manifestation of humanistic spirit in the medical field. Aiming at caring for and respecting patients， this spirit reflects the attitude of medicine towards life. The cultivation of medical humanistic care competencies should serve as a core element of modern medical education， running through the entire process of the medical students’ training system and the full stage of medical workers’ career development. The humanities team of Harbin Medical University pioneered the “consistent system” concept of medical humanities education， inherited the “four-stage” with clinical practice as the primary approach， and closely focused on “three combinations， two considerations， and one assessment.” Through deeply integrating medicine with the humanities， as well as theory with practice， they have embarked on a distinctive implementation path of medical humanities， laying a solid foundation for the cultivation of high-quality medical talents with both skills and expertise in practice.

Background: and Purpose In patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO), intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) frequently alters thrombus location; however, the clinical impact of this phenomenon remains unclear. We aimed to compare post-IVT thrombus dynamics between tenecteplase and alteplase and to evaluate the association between thrombus dynamics and 3-month outcomes. Methods: This retrospective study analyzed prospectively collected, multicenter data from consecutive patients with LVO who underwent bridging therapy between January 2022 and December 2024. Thrombus dynamics were classified as resolution, migration, or stability. Analyses incorporated propensity score matching with weighting to balance baseline characteristics. Results: Of the 806 initially included patients, 746 were included after matching (373 treated with tenecteplase and 373 treated with alteplase). The incidence of thrombus migration was significantly higher in the tenecteplase group than in the alteplase group (19.3% vs. 11.3%; odds ratio [OR]: 1.92; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.27–2.91). The advantage of tenecteplase over alteplase was restricted to patients with an IVT-to-puncture time of <60 minutes (18.6% vs. 6.2%; p=0.001) and was no longer significant when the interval ≥60 minutes (19.7% vs. 15.0%; p=0.204; pinteraction=0.043). Additionally, thrombus migration was associated with a better functional outcome (OR: 1.62; 95% CI 1.04–2.53). Finally, tenecteplase was associated with improved functional independence compared with alteplase (OR: 1.43; 95% CI 1.04–1.95). Conclusions Tenecteplase demonstrated superior efficacy in inducing thrombus migration compared with alteplase, particularly within 60 minutes of IVT administration. Thrombus migration independently predicted improved functional independence. These findings support the preferential use of tenecteplase for bridging therapy in patients with LVO.

Objective To examine the changing prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Burkholderia cepacia in 52 hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021.Methods A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were collected from 52 hospitals between January 1,2015 and December 31,2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility of the strains was tested using Kirby-Bauer method or automated antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems according to a unified protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released in the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)guidelines(2023 edition).Results A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were isolated from all age groups,especially elderly patients.The proportion was 11.1％(1 032 strains)in children,significantly lower than the proportion in adults.About half(46.5％,4 310/9 261)of the strains were isolated from patients at least 60 years old and 42.3％(3 919/9 261)of the strains were isolated from young adults.Most isolates(71.1％)were isolated from sputum and respiratory secretions,followed by urine(10.7％)and blood samples(8.1％).B.cepacia isolates were highly susceptible to the five antimicrobial agents recommended in the CLSI M100 document(33rd edition,2023).B.cepacia isolates showed relatively higher resistance rates to meropenem and levofloxacin.However,the resistance rates to ceftazidime,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,and minocycline remained below 8.1％.The percentage of B.cepacia strains resistant to levofloxacin was the highest compared to other antibiotics in any of the three age groups(from 12.4％in the patients＜18 years old to 20.6％in the patients aged 60 years or older).Conclusions B.cepacia is one of the clinically important non-fermenting gram-negative bacteria.Accurate and timely reporting of antimicrobial susceptibility test results and ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance are helpful for rational prescription of antimicrobial agents and proper prevention and control of nosocomial infections.

Objective To explore the clinical,radiological,and arthroscopic outcomes of anterior cru-ciate ligament(ACL)reconstruction combined with posterior tibial slope(PTS)reducing osteotomy in patients with increased PTS and excessive anterior tibial subluxation(ATS)due to primary ACL inju-ry.Methods This retrospective study included patients who underwent ACL reconstruction between 2016 and 2022 in our department.The inclusion criteria were PTS≥15° and ATS≥6 mm,and all pa-tients received ACL reconstruction combined with PTS reducing osteotomy with a follow-up of more than 2 years.Before and after the operation,they were assessed KT-1000 side-to-side difference(KT SSD),pivot shift grade,Lachman test,anterior tibial subluxation of the medial and lateral compart-ments(ASMC and ASLC),magnetic resonance imaging(MRI),and arthroscopic findings of associat-ed injuries.Moreover,graft laxity was defined as graft laxity observed on MRI or arthroscopy,KT SSD>3 mm,or pivot>1+,while graft failure was defined as graft rupture on MRI or arthroscopy,KT SSD>5 mm,or pivot>2+.Meanwhile,clinical outcomes were compared preoperatively and post-operatively,and graft status and associated injuries were described.Results A total of 30 patients were included,with an average age of 31 years,and 23%of female.The inter-observer reliability for mea-surements of PTS and ATS was greater than 0.80.Compared to preoperative values,postoperative PTS(18.2° vs.6.8°,P<0.001),KT SSD(7.8 mm vs.1.2 mm,P<0.001),ASLC(7.5 mm vs.4.5 mm,P=0.002),and ASMC(5.0 mm vs.2.7 mm,P=0.034),all showed significant improvements.In addi-tion,the proportion of patients with postoperative pivot grade of 2+to 3+(73.3%vs.6.7%,P<0.001)and Lachman grades Ⅱ-Ⅲ(70%vs.3.3%,P<0.001)reduced significantly.At the last follow-up,the incidence of graft laxity was 20%,and that of the graft failure was 13.3%.Among all pa-tients,1 patient(3.3%)had graft roof impingement or cyclops lesion,and 3(10%)suffered from concomitant cartilage injury,with 4(13.3%)undergoing intercondylar notchplasty due to intercondylar notch hyperplasia.However,no complications related to osteotomy,such as infection,non-union,or fixation failure,were observed.Conclusion Over a follow-up period of at least 2 years,for primary ACL injury patients with steep PTS and excessive ATS,combined ACL reconstruction with PTS reduc-ing osteotomy improves knee stability,but significantly reduces PTS,the incidence of severe pivot grade,anterior tibial subluxation in both medial and lateral compartments,and delays the occurrence of graft laxity and failure.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between the expression levels of breast cancer metastasis-like transcriptional repressor (BRMS1L), keratin 19 (KRT19), microRNA-101 (miR-101) in surgical resection specimens and postoperative recurrence and metastasis of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) .Methods:A total of 186 DTC patients were selected in Shanxi Province Cancer Hospital from Jan. 2021 to Jan. 2023. Their recurrence and metastasis status were assessed in 2 years after surgery, and they were categorized into the recurrence and metastasis group and the non-recurrence and metastasis group. The clinical data of the two groups, as well as the expression levels of BRMS1L, KRT19, and miR-101 in the surgical resection specimens, were compared. Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the relationship between BRMS1L, KRT19, miR-101 in the surgical resection specimens and postoperative recurrence and metastasis of DTC. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the predictive value of BRMS1L, KRT19, and miR-101 in the surgical resection specimens for postoperative recurrence and metastasis of DTC, as well as their gain value in constructing predictive models.Results:Among 186 DTC patients were followed up for 2 years postoperatively, 4 were lost to follow-up. Of these, 137 did not experience recurrence or metastasis, while 45 did, resulting in a recurrence and metastasis rate of 24.73% (45/182). The tumor diameter, proportion of stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ, proportion of multiple lesions, and proportion of lymph node metastasis in the recurrent and metastatic group were all higher than those in the non-recurrent and non-metastatic group, while the proportion of postoperative 131I therapy was lower ( P<0.001, P=0.002, P=0.008, P<0.001). The KRT19 mRNA level in the recurrent and metastatic group was higher than that in the non-recurrent and non-metastatic group, while the BRMS1L mRNA and miR-101 levels were lower (both P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that, before and after adjusting for other factors, BRMS1L, KRT19, and miR-101 were independent factors influencing postoperative recurrence and metastasis of DTC (both P<0.001). ROC curves showed that the AUCs of BRMS1L, KRT19, and miR-101 for predicting recurrent metastasis after DTC were 0.776, 0.802, 0.812, with sensitivities of 84.44%, 73.33%, and 84.44%, and specificities of 62.04%, 72.26%, and 79.56%; the R language package was used to construct a conventional prediction model consisting of clinical factors such as tumor diameter, clinical stage, lesion type, lymph node metastasis, and postoperative 131I treatment, and a new prediction model consisting of tumor diameter, clinical stage, lesion type, lymph node metastasis, postoperative 131I treatment, BRMS1L, KRT19, and miR-101. The test results indicated that both prediction models exhibited good fit ( P>0.05). The ROC curve analysis revealed that the AUCs for predicting postoperative recurrence and metastasis in DTC were 0.928 and 0.854 for the new and conventional prediction models, respectively. The sensitivity was 91.11% and 80.00%, and the specificity was 83.94% and 78.83%, respectively. The predictive value of the new prediction model was significantly better than that of the conventional prediction model ( Z=2.011, P=0.044) . Conclusions:The expression levels of BRMS1L, KRT19, and miR-101 in surgically resected specimens are closely correlated with postoperative recurrence and metastasis of DTC, serving as independent influencing factors with good predictive value. Furthermore, they exhibit significant gain value in constructing predictive models.
