BackgroundIndividuals with schizophrenia are prone to higher rates of hospital readmission， presenting significant clinical challenges and imposing considerable social burdens within the mental health domain. In recent years， various risk prediction models have been developed to forecast readmission in patients with schizophrenia and support clinical decision-making， but their predictive performance and clinical applicability require comprehensive evaluation. ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the risk prediction models for readmission in patients with schizophrenia， so as to provide insights for the development of high-performance and highly applicable readmission risk prediction models for patients with schizophrenia. MethodsOn July 5， 2025， a systematic literature search was conducted across multiple electronic databases， including PubMed， Embase， Cochrane Library， Web of Science， CINAHL， CNKI， China Biomedical Literature Database， Wanfang Database， and VIP Database， to identify risk prediction models for readmission in patients with schizophrenia. The search period was from the establishment of the databases to July 1， 2025. Two researchers independently performed literature screening， data extraction， risk of bias assessment， and applicability assessment. ResultsA total of 9 studies were included in this review， encompassing 18 risk prediction models for readmission in patients with schizophrenia. Among them， 4 models reported the area under the receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve （AUC）， ranging from 0.734 to 0.820， 16 models provided AUC values of 0.642–0.879 for internal validation， and 1 model demonstrated an AUC of 0.841 for external validation. Key predictors included disease duration and the concomitant therapy of antipsychotic medications. The risk of bias was assessed as "high" in all included studies. ConclusionThe development of risk prediction models for readmission in patients with schizophrenia remains in an exploratory stage. Although the model exhibits favorable predictive performance， it is associated with a high risk of bias and insufficient performance evaluation.

OBJECTIVE To form an expert consensus on the clinical application of parenteral direct thrombin inhibitors （DTIs） in patients during the perioperative period. METHODS Led by Sichuan Academy of Medical Sciences & Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital （the Affiliated Hospital of UESTC）， a multidisciplinary working group was established. Through literature review and the Delphi method， clinical questions related to the rational perioperative use of parenteral DTIs were identified. A structured design was adopted using the “Population-Intervention-Comparison-Outcome” framework； systematic searches were conducted in CNKI， Medline， Embase and other databases. Relevant evidence from randomized controlled trials and cohort studies was included and synthesized. Evidence quality was assessed using the Grades of Recommendations Assessment，Development and Evaluation （GRADE） approach， and recommendations were formulated through multiple rounds of Delphi surveys and expert consensus meetings. RESULTS &CONCLUSIONS Seven recommendations （each with an expert consensus rate exceeding 90%） on the use of parenteral DTIs in perioperative patients were developed. These recommendations specify drug selection， dosing ranges， key monitoring points， and safety management strategies for parenteral DTIs in various scenarios， including the perioperative period of ventricular assist device implantation， the perioperative period of cardiac surgery， perioperative patients with lower-extremity atherosclerotic disease， the perioperative period of percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with acute coronary syndrome， the perioperative period of carotid artery stenting in patients with carotid stenosis， the perioperative period of patients with right heart thrombosis， and patients who develop related thrombosis and dysfunction after a central venous catheter insertion. In addition， warning and management pathways for perioperative bleeding and thrombotic events were proposed. This expert consensus， which is formulated based on the best available evidence， provides evidence-based guidance for standardized and individualized use of parenteral DTIs in perioperative period.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic reference level(DRL)of computed tomography(CT)based on size-specific dose estimate(SSDE)for child's head,and estimate the SSDE by using tube current time production.Methods:The CT data of head of 1259 pediatric patients who underwent CT examination in Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2023 to December 2023 were retrospectively collected.They were divided into six groups according to different ages:<6 months group,6 months to<1 year group,1 to<3 years group,3 to<6 years group,6 to<12 years group,and≥12 years group.Additionally,they were divided into five groups based on body size:<12.5 cm group,12.5 to<14 cm group,14 to<15 cm group,15 to<16 cm group,and≥16 cm group.The volume CT dose index(CTDIVOL),tube current time production(mAs),left and right diameter(LRD),area(AROI)and CT value(CTROI)of region of interest of different age groups were respectively measured and recorded.The water equivalent diameter(DW),conversion factor(f H16)and SSDE based on DW(SSDEDW)were calculated.The DRLs distribution based on age and body size was analyzed by statistic method,and the correlation between DW and mAs was analyzed by regression analysis,and a regression model between SSDEDW and mAs was further established.The intra-group correlation coefficient(ICC)was used to analyze the consistency.Results:In DRLs of various age groups,the CTDIVOL range and SSDEDW range were respectively(12.32 mGy-21.66 mGy)and(13.47 mGy to 17.83 mGy).In the DRL of various body size groups,the CTDIVOL range and SSDEDW range were(13.52 mGy-21.86 mGy)and(13.91 mGy-17.92 mGy).In different ages group of pediatric patients,the range of deviation rates of local DRL(LDRLs)value of radiation dose on head of CTDIVOL value to SSDEDW was-8.54%-21.48%.There were strong positive correlations between DW and mAs at 100 and 120 kVp(r=0.96,0.89,P<0.001),respectively.There was stronger consistency between the calculated value by using SSDEDW and actual measurement value by using sAs(ICC=0.98).Conclusion:SSDEDW can more accurately reflect radiation dose,and SSDEDW can be more quickly calculated to control the radiation dose by using the regression models between SSDEDW and mAs.

Objective:To investigate the impact of tumor origin (ventral pancreatic origin and dorsal pancreatic origin) on prognosis in patients with pancreatic head cancer.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 150 patients with pancreatic head cancer who received surgical treatment at the First Affiliated Hospital of the Naval Medical University from October 2014 to December 2017. Among these patients, 92 were male and 58 were female, aged (61.2±8.8) years. The 150 patients were divided into two groups based on tumor origin: the ventral pancreatic cancer group ( n=72) and the dorsal pancreatic cancer group ( n=78). A comparative analysis of clinical, pathological, and imaging charac-teristics was conducted between the two groups. Univariate and multivariable Cox proportional hazards models were used to analyze the association between pancreatic head cancer origin and overall survival (OS). Results:Patients with pancreatic head carcinoma arising from the ventral and dorsal pancreas accounted for 48%(72/150) and 52%(78/150) of the study cohort, respectively. Pancreatic head carcinoma arising from the dorsal pancreas were more likely to show pathological features of pancreatic parenchymal atrophy [73.1%(57/78) vs. 47.2%(34/72), χ2=10.49, P=0.001] and pancreatitis [44.9%(35/78) vs. 29.2%(21/72), χ2=3.95, P=0.047]. In contrast, patients with pancreatic head carcinoma arising from the ventral pancreas was more frequently associated with contact with the superior mesenteric artery [25.0%(18/72) vs. 1.3%(1/78), χ2=19.04, P<0.001], perineural invasion [100%(72/72) vs. 88.5%(69/78), χ2=8.84, P=0.003], and positive surgical margins [15.3%(11/72) vs. 2.6%(2/78), χ2=7.65, P=0.006], with all differences statistically significant. The ventral pancreatic cancer group demonstrated cumulative survival rates of 33.2% and 0 at 1-year and 2-year postoperative intervals, respectively, while the dorsal pancreatic cancer group exhibited rates of 56.7% and 24.8% at the corresponding timepoints. Comparison of Kaplan-Meier survival curves between the two groups showed a statistically significant difference ( χ2=6.00, P=0.014). Multivariable Cox proportional hazards analysis identified dorsal pancreatic origin pancreatic head cancer as an independent predictor of increased mortality risk compared to ventral origin tumors ( HR=2.75, 95% CI: 1.52-4.98, P=0.001). Conclusion:The embryonic origin of pancreatic head cancer determines its clinical, pathological, and imaging heterogeneity, and pancreatic head cancer arising from the ventral pancreas demonstrates significantly worse prognostic outcomes compared to dorsal pancreatic origin.

Objective:To observe the applying effect of teamwork cooperation model of encephalopathy in the clinical teaching of Neurology.Methods:Sixty undergraduate students who practiced in our hospital were randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group,with 30 students in each group.The control group was arranged for internship according to the traditional department-based model,while the experimental group was arranged according to the teamwork cooperation model of encephalopathy discipline group.The theoretical examination scores and clinical skills scores of the two groups were compared,and the Mini-Clinical Evaluation Exercise(Mini-CEX)scale was used for dual evaluation by teachers and students from seven aspects:inquiry skills,physical examination skills,humanistic care,clinical judgment,communication skills,organizational effectiveness,and overall clinical competence.Result:There were statistically significant differences between the experimental group and the control group in theoretical examination scores,clinical skills scores,and dual evaluation by teachers and students(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Compared with the traditional teaching model,the teamwork cooperation model of encephalopathy discipline group has achieved better results in the clinical teaching of Neurology.

Objective:To compare the pregnancy outcomes of surviving fetuses in monochorionic diam-niotic(MCDA)twin pregnancies after selective feticide or spontaneous single intrauterine fetal demise(sIUFD),and to explore the influencing factors of prognosis.Methods:A total of 219 cases of intra-uterine death of one fetus in MCDA twin pregnancies admitted to Peking University Third Hospital from September 2010 to August 2021 were collected.According to the mode of fetal death,they were divided into the spontaneous sIUFD group(120 cases)and the selective feticide group(99 cases).Data on the maternal conditions during pregnancy,the situation of the intrauterine-dead fetus,and pregnancy out-comes were collected for retrospective case-analysis.Results:The live-birth rates of surviving fetuses in the spontaneous sIUFD group and the selective feticide group were 85.0％and 81.8％respectively,and the total perinatal survival rates of surviving fetuses were 73.3％and 81.8％respectively,and there were no statistically significant differences.Compared with the spontaneous sIUFD group,the selective feticide group had a greater gestational week at delivery,and lower rate of preterm birth before 37 weeks,neonatal asphyxia,and early neonatal mortality.Using the gestational week at delivery as the outcome variable,Cox regression analysis showed that the mode of fetal death was not a risk factor affecting the gestational week at delivery of the surviving fetus,while gestational hypertension and the gestational week of fetal death were independent risk factors affecting the gestational week at delivery of the surviving fetus.Using preterm birth before 37 weeks,intrauterine death of the surviving fetus,and abnormal neonatal cranial ultrasound as outcome variables respectively,unconditional logistic regression analysis showed that the mode of fetal death,the gestational week of fetal death,the position of the dead fetus,and fetal complications were independent risk factors affecting the outcomes of the above-mentioned survi-ving fetuses.According to the results of the univariate analysis,the above risk factors were included in the multivariate regression analysis,and the results were the same as those of the univariate analysis.Conclusion:For MCDA twin pregnancy patients with severe twin-related complications,the prognosis of surviving fetuses after selective feticide is better.The proactive intrauterine intervention and treatment are of great significance for improving the prognosis of surviving fetuses.

Objective:To screen the optimal machine learning model for predicting the recurrence condition of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at different time points post-surgery, based on the cutoff value of the Ki67 positive proliferation index condition calculated from recurrence-free survival and combined with various clinical features.Methods:retrospective study included initially treated patients with solitary HCC who underwent radical surgery at the Fifth Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital from January 2013 to March 2023. Data included general clinical data, preoperative laboratory parameters, and surgical pathology information about the subjects. The postoperative recurrence status was assessed by querying the medical record system or by telephone follow-up. The Ki67 positive index cutoff value was determined by the X-tile software based on the patient's recurrence-free survival status and time analysis. Survival rates were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and survival curves were plotted. The study population was randomly divided into training and testing groups in a 7:3 ratio using a computer-generated random number method. The minimum redundancy maximum relevance (mRMR) method was used for feature variable selection. Predictive models for postoperative HCC recurrence conditions in patients with HCC were constructed using random forest, support vector machine, logistic regression, and gradient boosting decision tree machine learning algorithms. Inter-group comparisons for continuous data were performed using the t-test or Mann-Whitney U test. Inter-group comparisons of enumeration data were performed using the Pearson χ2 test, continuity-corrected χ2 test, or Fisher's exact test. Results:The cutoff values for the Ki67 positivity index were 0.3 and 0.5 in 510 cases, with a follow-up time ranging from 1.2 to 11.4 years (median: 6.2 years). The recurrence-free survival time was between 1 and 135 months (median: 32 months), with recurrence-free survival rates post-surgery at 1, 2, 3, and 5 years were 87.5%, 77.1%, 61.2%, and 54.5%, respectively. The top five variables predicted HCC recurrence and non-recurrence conditions following surgical follow-up at 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and beyond 2 years, in accordance with information obtained by the mRMR screen out. The Ki67 positivity index screened a successfully constructed machine learning model to predict HCC recurrence and non-recurrence conditions following surgical follow-up at 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and beyond 2 years. The machine learning model based on the gradient boosting decision tree algorithm had the best prediction performance among them (areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves for predicting HCC recurrence within six months in the training and validation sets were 0.996 and 0.946, and accuracies were 0.972 and 0.935, respectively).Conclusion:A machine learning model was successfully constructed using the Ki67 positivity index combined with four readily available clinical features to predict HCC recurrence. The machine learning model based on the gradient boosting decision tree algorithm demonstrated the best performance in terms of predicting HCC recurrence within six months after surgery.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Objective To investigate the impact of pomegranate peel polyphenols(PPP)on the malignant biological behavior of colon cancer cells through modulation of the miR-138-5p/hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α)pathway.Methods Quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR)was employed to measure the expression levels of miR-138-5p and HIF-1α mRNA in the normal colon epithelial cell line FHC and three colorectal cancer cell lines:SW480,HCT116,and Caco-2.SW480 cells were divided into six groups:a blank control group,a negative control(mimics NC)group,a miR-138-5p mimics group,three different concentrations of PPP treatment groups(0.5 mg/mL,1 mg/mL,and 2 mg/mL),a PPP+inhibitor NC group at 2 mg/mL,and a PPP+miR-138-5p inhibitor group at 2 mg/mL.The effects on cell proliferation,invasion,and migration,as well as changes in apoptosis and related proteins including B-cell lymphoma 2(Bcl-2),migration invasion enhancer 1(MIEN1),and Cyclin D1,were evaluated separately.Additionally,the targeting relationship between miR-138-5p and HIF-1α was validated.The expression levels of miR-138-5p,HIF-1α mRNA,and protein were assessed in each experimental group.Results The expression levels of miR-138-5p were highest in FHC cells and lowest in SW 480 cells,while the expression levels of HIF-1α mRNA showed an opposite trend,being lowest in FHC cells and highest in SW 480 cells(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,different concentrations of PPP significantly promoted cell apoptosis,upregulated miR-138-5p expression,inhibited cell proliferation,invasion,and migration,and downregulated the expression of HIF-1α mRNA,Bcl-2,MIEN1,CyclinD1,and HIF-1α protein,with significant differences between groups(P<0.05).Compared with the mimics NC group,the miR-138-5p mimics group significantly enhanced cell apoptosis,upregulated miR-138-5p expression,inhibited cell proliferation,invasion,and migration,and downregulated the expression of HIF-1α mRNA,Bcl-2,MIEN1,CyclinD1,and HIF-1α protein(P<0.05).Compared with the 2 mg/mL PPP+inhibitor NC group,the 2 mg/mL PPP+miR-138-5p inhibitor group significantly suppressed cell apoptosis,downregulated miR-138-5p expression,promoted cell proliferation,invasion,and migration,and upregulated the expression of HIF-1α mRNA,Bcl-2,MIEN1,CyclinD1,and HIF-1α protein(P<0.05).These results indicate a targeted relationship between miR-138-5p and HIF-1α(P<0.05).Conclusion PPP inhibits the malignant biological behavior of colon cancer cells through upregulation of the miR-138-5p/HIF-1α pathway.
