ObjectiveTo develop a full-process data platform of renal rehabilitation, diagnosis and quality control information. MethodsA hierarchical architectural design was proposed, adhering to clinical pathway models and standardized data protocols. The platform comprehensively covered assessment, intervention, follow-up and quality control for maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. By integrating multidisciplinary resources and standardizing rehabilitation workflows, it delivered standardized and intelligent rehabilitation services. ResultsThe platform achieved standardized and intelligent management of rehabilitation services, effectively improved the physiological function, psychological state and quality of life convenience for MHD patients, while significantly reduced the economic and care burden on patients' families and society. ConclusionThe rehabilitation service model based on a full-process data platform may provide scientific and systematic support for MHD patients.

Artificial intelligence （AI） is gradually being applied in the field of decision-making support for the daily care of the older adults with disabilities. However， due to their limited cognitive functions， information asymmetry with medical staff and technical parties， and a certain degree of emotional deprivation， the older adults with disabilities are in a structurally vulnerable position. Against this background， several ethical dilemmas arise when AI technology intervenes in care decision-making. First， the informed consent process is difficult to genuinely implement. Second， algorithms based on average models tend to ignore individual differences， leading to “de-personalization” of services. Third， over-reliance on technology may further weaken humanistic care， thereby undermining the individual dignity of the older adults with disabilities. Fourth， in the care decision-making involving the joint participation of the older adults with disabilities， caregivers， medical teams， and AI systems， the boundaries of responsibility among all parties remain unclear， making it difficult to assign accountability when adverse outcomes occur. Drawing on the theories of vulnerability ethics， interactive ethics， and care ethics， this paper proposes a “vulnerability-interaction-care” path and put forward three-tiered countermeasures. The first was baseline safeguards， preventing the exploitation of the vulnerability of the older adults with disabilities and their caregivers， and requiring further safeguards for their dignity. The second was process protection， enhancing transparency and accountability within the human-machine collaboration framework， as well as establishing a multi-party consultation mechanism. The third was capacity empowerment， improving the subjectivity of the older adults with disabilities through age-appropriate interaction， structured expression of intentions， and caregiver participation.

Objective To analyze the types and distribution of microbiome in intestinal and lung tissues of children with asthma, and to explore the correlation between microbiota changes and asthma. Methods From 2021 to 2023, a total of 28,939 children with asthma who visited Ezhou Central Hospital, Maternal and Child Health Hospital or Ezhou Egang Hospital were selected as the study subjects, and 2,000 healthy children who underwent outpatient physical examinations at these three hospitals during the same period were selected as the control group. The distribution and characteristics of intestinal and pulmonary microbiome in the two groups were analyzed by 16SrDNA sequencing. Logistic regression analysis model was used to analyze the correlation between microbiota distribution and asthma occurrence. Results In the intestinal tissues of children with asthma compared to healthy children, the abundance of Bacteroidetes at the phylum level decreased, while the abundance of Firmicutes and Proteobacteria increased significantly (P<0.05), and the abundance of Prevotalle and Clostridium at the genus level increased significantly. In lung tissues of asthmatic children compared to health children, the abundance of Firmicutes at the phylum level decreased while the abundance of Proteobacteria increased significantly (P<0.05), and the abundance of Neisseria, Prevotella and Actinomyces at the genus level increased significantly. Binary logistic regression results showed that the abundances of Lactobacillus (OR=0.842, 95% CI: 0.533-0.947), Bacteroides fragilis (OR=0.649, 95%CI: 0.377-0.890), Bifidobacterium (OR=0.901, 95% CI: 0.633-0.994), and Parabacteroides distasonis (OR=0.547, 95% CI: 0.192-0.708) in the intestinal tissues were all protective factors for the asthma in children. In the lung tissue, the abundance of Neisseria (OR=2.140, 95% CI: 1.749-3.305) was a risk factor for the asthma in children, and Prevotella (OR=0.691, 95% CI: 0.491-0.926) was a protective factor for the asthma in children (P<0.05). Conclusion The dysbiosis of intestinal and pulmonary microbiome is closely related to the occurrence of asthma in children, and the detection of microbiota is of great significance for the diagnosis of childhood asthma.

Objective: To perform serological identification and molecular analysis of four samples with antibodies against high-frequency antigens, and to track the condition of newborns after delivery. Methods: Blood group serological tests were conducted using tube method, and unexpected antibody screening and identification were performed using polybrene and human globulin card. Gene haplotype analysis of blood group system was performed using PacBio third-generation sequencing. The DNA mutations were confirmed through Sanger sequencing. Results: Four samples showed normal blood types in common blood type systems. However, they were positive in all unexpected antibody screening and identification, with negative direct antiglobulin tests results. Third-generation sequencing revealed 3 cases of c.376C>T homozygous mutation and 1 case of c.421C>A homozygous mutation in the ABCG2 gene. Three pregnant women gave birth to four children, all of whom developed hyperbilirubinemia, accompanied by decreased red blood cell count and normal or low hemoglobin concentration. Conclusion: Four samples were obtained from individuals with the rare Jr(a-) blood group. Immunization during pregnancy led to the production of anti-Jr antibody, which may contribute to hyperbilirubinemia in newborns.

Objective To investigate the early predictive value of combined detection of serum sodium,heparin-binding protein-to-albumin ratio(HBP/ALB)and interleukin-10(IL-10)in Ka-wasaki disease shock syndrome(KDSS)caused by Kawasaki disease in children.Methods A total of 105 children with KDSS caused by Kawasaki disease(KDSS group)and 105 children with Kawasa-ki disease(control group)were selected as study subjects.Clinical data,serum sodium levels,HBP/ALB and IL-10 levels were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic regression a-nalysis was used to screen the influencing factors of KDSS caused by Kawasaki disease in children a-mong serum sodium,HBP/ALB and IL-10.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was conducted to evaluate the predictive value of traditional prediction schemes(coronary artery dam-age and IVIG resistance)and new prediction schemes(serum sodium and HBP/ALB,IL-10)for KDSS caused by Kawasaki disease in children.Results The proportion of patients with coronary ar-tery damage and IVIG resistance was significantly higher in the KDSS group than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Serum sodium levels were lower,while HBP/ALB and IL-10 levels were higher in the KDSS group compared to the control group(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum sodium,BP/ALB and IL-10 were influencing factors of KDSS caused by Kawasaki diseasein children(P＜0.05).For traditional prediction schemes,the areas under the curves(AUCs)for coronary artery damage,IVIG resistance and their combination in predicting KDSS caused by Kawasaki disease were 0.795,0.676 and 0.873,respectively(P＜0.05);for new prediction schemes,the AUCs for serum sodium,HBP/ALB,IL-10 and their combination in predicting KDSS were 0.767,0.824,0.760 and 0.945,respectively(P＜0.05).The AUC for the combination of serum sodium,HBP/ALB and IL-10 was greater than that for the combination of coronary artery dam-age and IVIG resistance(P＜0.05).Conclusion Decreased serum sodium,elevated HBP/ALB and elevated IL-10 are associated with KDSS caused by Kawasaki disease in children.Combined prediction using serum sodium,HBP/ALB and IL-10 has a high predictive value for KDSS caused by Kawasaki disease in children.

Objective To evaluate the value of modified percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy(PEG)for patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS)and dysphagia.Methods From January 2018 to December 2023,47 patients with ALS were treated with modified PEG in our hospital.The surgery was performed under local anesthesia.The patients were placed in a semi-seated position,and the surgeon performed surgery with an ultra-fine endoscope through oral entrance to the stomach.Results The modified PEG were successfully completed in all the 47 cases.The operation time was5-20 min[mean,(10.3±1.7)min].The postoperative hospitalization lasted for2-8 d(mean,2.8 d).Postoperative complications occurred in6 cases(12.8%),including aspiration pneumonia in4 cases(8.5%)and incision infection in2 cases(4.3%).The body mass index was17.06±0.89 before PEG and 18.15±0.81 at 3 months after PEG,with significant difference(t=-10.373,P=0.000).Conclusion For ALS patients with dysphagia,modified PEG is feasible,which significantly improves nutritional status of patients.

Objective To analyze the main epidemiological characteristics of fungal infection in this hospital in the past 7 years,and to provide reference for clinical treatment and prevention and control strategies of fun-gal infection.Methods The fungal data and clinical data of related patients isolated from clinical samples in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from early January 2018 to the end of May 2024 were selected,and the main epidemiological characteristics of fungal infection in this hospital were identified and described through multi-angle statistical analysis.Results A total of 4 479 patients with filamentous fungal infection were en-rolled.The proportion of male patients[57.5％(2 576/4 479)]was higher than that of female patients[42.5％(1 903/4 143)],mainly distributed in internal medicine,Intensive Care Unit(ICU)and emergency de-partment,among which internal medicine accounted for the highest proportion[50.0％(2 241/4 479)].About 90.0％of the specimens were from the lower respiratory tract,in addition to specimens from skin and soft tis-sue,tissue,ear and blood culture.In terms of seasonal distribution,there are more patients in winter.The fun-gi were mainly composed of Aspergillus,Mucor,Cerdosporium,Fusarium and Penicillium,among which As-pergillus was the most abundant,accounting for 74.6％of the total.Aspergillus fumigatus was the most a-bundant Aspergillus,accounting for 42.5％of the total Aspergillus(1 418/3 340).Among the related infec-tions caused by mold,Aspergillus was the most common in the lower respiratory tract,accounting for 76.8％.Among them,Aspergillus fumigatus accounted for the highest proportion(33.6％).98.6％of the molds infected the ear were Aspergillus,of which Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus terreus were the most common.Skin infections are mainly caused by Sporothrix schenckii,Trichophyton rubrum,Microsporum ca-nis.The results of in vitro drug sensitivity test showed that the four common Aspergillus isolated in this hos-pital were sensitive to voriconazole,and amphotericin B had better antifungal activity against Mucorales in vitro.Conclusion Based on the main epidemiological characteristics of fungal infections in this hospital,it is recommended that special attention be paid to the admission of patients in the respiratory department during the peak infection period in autumn and winter.In the treatment of fungal infections in different regions and on different body parts,attention should be paid to the differences in the distribution of bacterial species.

ObjectiveTo investigate the facilitators and barriers of home-based exercise rehabilitation for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). MethodsFrom December, 2023 to March, 2024, 15 CKD patients receiving treatment at the Nephrology Department of Beijing Bo'ai Hospital and undergoing home-based rehabilitation were selected, as well as eight healthcare professionals from the same department. Semi-structured interviews were conducted, and the data were coded and analyzed using Nvivo 12.0. ResultsTwo main themes were identified. The facilitators included perceived benefits, good health literacy, potential benefits of online media, supervision by healthcare professionals and adequate social support. The barriers included severe negative emotions, adverse effects of complications, insufficient emphasis on exercise rehabilitation, lack of motivation for exercise, constraints related to time and location for exercise, and insufficient rehabilitation support. ConclusionThere are vavious and individual factors influencing home-based exercise rehabilitation for CKD patients, which need an individualized exercise rehabilitation guidance to improve the adherence to self-management.

[Objective] To explore the strategy of blood management in patients with massive transfusion in the frigid plateau region. [Methods] The treatment process of a patient with liver rupture in the frigid plateau region was analyzed, and the blood management strategy of the frigid plateau region was discussed in combination with the difficulties of blood transfusion and literature review. [Results] The preoperative complete blood count (CBC) test results of the patient were as follows: RBC 3.14×10¹²/L, Hb 10⁶ g/L, HCT 30.40%, PLT 115.00×10⁹/L; coagulation function: PT 18.9 s, FiB 1.31 g/L, DD > 6 μg/mL, FDP 25.86 μg/mL; ultrasound examination and imaging manifestations suggested liver contusion and laceration / intraparenchymal hematoma, splenic contusion and laceration, and massive blood accumulation in the abdominal cavity; it was estimated that the patient's blood loss was ≥ 2 000 mL, and massive blood transfusion was required during the operation; red blood cell components were timely transfused during the operation, and the blood component transfusion was guided according to the patient's CBC and coagulation function test results, providing strong support and guarantee for the successful treatment of the patient. The patient recovered well after the operation, and the CBC test results were as follows: RBC 4.32×10¹²/L, Hb 144 g/L, HCT 39.50%, PLT 329.00×10⁹/L; coagulation function: APTT 29.3 s, PT 12.1 s, FiB 2.728 g/L, DD>6 μg/mL, FDP 25.86 μg/mL. The patient was discharged after 20 days, and regular follow-up reexamination showed no abnormal results. [Conclusion] Individualized blood management strategy should comprehensively consider the patient’s clinical symptoms, the degree of hemoglobin decline, dynamic coagulation test results and existing treatment conditions. Efficient and reasonable patient blood management strategies can effectively improve the clinical outcomes of massive transfusion patients in the frigid plateau region.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of acute respiratory infections(ARIs)during the autumn-winter season in Beijing,providing evidence for the prevention,control,diagnosis,and treatment of ARIs.Methods A convenience sampling method was employed,enrolling patients who visited Peking Union Medical College Hospital(PUMCH)between September 2023 and February 2024 due to ARIs.Na-sopharyngeal swabs were collected,and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect six common respiratory pathogens[influenza A virus(FluA),influenza B virus(FluB),human rhinovirus(HRV),Myco-plasma pneumoniae(MP),respiratory syncytial virus(RSV),and adenovirus(ADV)],as well as SARS-CoV-2 infection.The distribution patterns of pathogen infections were analyzed.Results A total of 5556 eligible patients were included.The overall positivity rate for the six common respiratory pathogens was 63.7％,with sin-gle-pathogen positivity at 54.0％,dual-pathogen positivity at 8.9％,and triple or more pathogen positivity at 0.7％.The predominant pathogens detected were FluA(16.1％)and RSV(15.7％),followed by ADV(11.1％),MP(11.1％),HRV(10.0％),and FluB(10.0％).No significant difference in overall pathogen positivity was observed between genders.However,significant differences were found between autumn and winter(x2=34.617,P＜0.001)and among pediatric,young/middle-aged,and elderly patients(x2=422.38,P＜0.001).Specifically,MP(x2=8.647,P=0.003),FluA(x2=131.932,P＜0.001),and HRV(x2=174.199,P＜0.001)exhibited significantly higher positivity rates in autumn than in winter,whereas FluB was more prevalent in winter(x2=287.894,P＜0.001).In pediatric patients,MP,RSV,HRV,and ADV positivity rates were significantly higher than in young/middle-aged and elderly patients(all P＜0.001),whereas FluB was more common in young/middle-aged patients(both P＜0.001).The positivity rates of the six common respiratory pathogens significantly declined during the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic period,exhibiting an asynchronous seasonal pattern.Conclusions The prevalence of respiratory pathogens in Beijing is associated with age and season.Tar-geted preventive measures should be implemented in different seasons and for key populations.
