Objective To investigate the short-and long-term prognoses and the risk factors affecting"text-book outcome"(TO)after laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy(LPD)for pancreatic ductal adenocar-cinoma(PDAC).Methods The clinical and follow-up data of patients diagnosed with PDAC and treated with LPD from January 2019 to Dec-ember 2022 were retrospectively anal-yzed.The prognosis was compared bet-ween TO and non-TO groups,and uni-variate and multivariate logistic regre-ssion analyses were used to identify independent prognostic factors for TO.Results A total of 284 patients were enrolled in this study,including 185 cases in the TO group and 99 cases in the non-TO group.The 1-,3-and 5-year overall survival(OS)rates of the TO and non-TO groups with PDAC were 87.3%vs.85.9%,52.5%vs.38.4%,and 18.0%vs.4.5%,respectively(P=0.020);the recurrence-free survival(RFS)rates were 74.1%vs.65.7%,27.1%vs.21.0%,and 10.0%vs.0%,respectively(P=0.042).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that operation time>360 min(OR=0.561,95%CI:0.321-0.979,P=0.042),intraoperative blood loss>400 ml(OR=0.392,95%CI:0.175-0.879,P=0.023),hard or tough texture of pancreas(OR=2.240,95%CI:1.247-4.022,P=0.007),and main pancreatic duct dia-meter>3 mm(OR=1.931,95%CI:1.126-3.312,P=0.017)were independent prognostic factors for TO.Conclusion After the learning curve,more than 60%of patients with PDAC can achieve TO after LPD.The chances of achieving TO are significantly reduced when the operation time>360 min,the intraoperative blood loss>400 ml,the texture of pancreas was soft,and the diameter of the main pancreatic duct>3 mm.

OBJECTIVE To understand the current management status of the special campaign for enhancing the pathogen detection rate before antimicrobial therapy in hospitalized patients in China,analyze identified issues dur-ing implementation,and propose improvement suggestions.METHOD A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect data from medical institutions participating in the special campaign within the region from May to Jul.2024,covering aspects such as quality control management,coordination mechanisms,data sources,indicator connotations and existing issues.RESULTS Variations were observed among medical institutions in the manage-ment of pathogen detection rates,primarily reflected in inconsistent usage of detection rate indicators,varying im-plementation levels of quality control measures and differences in multi-departmental participation.Additionally,discrepancies in data sources,statistical methods and interpretations of indicator connotations limited the compara-bility of data.CONCLUSIONS To address these issues,improvement measures such as strengthening informatiza-tion construction,standardizing indicator statistical methods and enhancing multi-departmental coordination mech-anisms should be implemented.These efforts will provide a scientific basis for the implementation of special cam-paign and robust support for the rational use of antimicrobial agents.

In recent years,more and more studies have found that phase separation plays an important role in the onset and progression of cardiovascular diseases.Phase separation refers to the process in which biological macromole-cules,such as proteins and nucleic acids,spontaneously segregate into concentrated and diluted phases under certain con-ditions.This process creates distinct functional compartments within cells and is involved in various cellular biological functions.The driving forces of phase separation include multivalent interactions such as electrostatic interactions,hydro-phobic interactions,and π-π stacking.Key protein regions that promote phase separation include intrinsically disordered regions,low complexity domains,folded domains,and nucleic acid binding domains.This article reviews recent progress in understanding the role of phase separation in cardiovascular diseases,including heart failure,myocardial fibrosis,and atherosclerosis,with a particular focus on the last five years of research.Future studies should aim to elucidate the specif-ic mechanisms of phase separation in cardiovascular diseases and explore its potential as a therapeutic target.

BackgroundPostpartum depression can affect the physical and mental health of mothers and the quality of parenting. Most Chinese women perform traditional postpartum practices （commonly known as "doing the month"） after giving birth， while the existing findings are inconsistent and inconclusive regarding the potential of traditional Chinese postpartum practices to alleviate or exacerbate postpartum depression. ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between traditional Chinese postpartum practices and postpartum depression， so as to provide references for reducing the risk of postpartum depression. MethodsA total of 240 consecutive women who gave birth in the obstetrics department of the Mianyang Central Hospital and the Third Hospital of Mianyang from January to May 2024 were selected. Data were collected using Self-designed General Information Questionnaire， Chinese version of the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale （EPDS）， the Social Support Rating Scale （SSRS）， the Patient Health Questionnaire-15 （PHQ-15）， the Adherence to Doing-the-Month Practices questionnaire （ADP）， and the Self-compiled Questionnaire on the Cognition of Doing-the-Month. The absolute value （A value） of the difference between scores of ADP and Cognition of Doing-the-Month Questionnaire was calculated to evaluate the degree of cognitive behavioral conflict of postpartum women. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to examine the correlations of EPDS score with SSRS score， PHQ-15 score， ADP total and dimensional scores， Cognition of Doing-the-Month Questionnaire total and dimensional scores， and A value. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify the protective and risk factors for developing postpartum depression. ResultsThe postpartum depression was detected in 22.50% of women. The postpartum women had a EPDS score of （6.21±5.00）， ADP score of （70.05±20.57）， SSRS score of （41.96±6.96）， PHQ-15 score of （4.63±3.77）， and Cognition of Doing-the-Month questionnaire score of （40.30±10.13）. The A value was （0.65±0.58）. Correlation analysis revealed that EPDS score was negatively correlated with the total ADP score and the four dimensional scores of the restrictions on social activities， diet， housework， and personal hygiene （r=-0.228， -0.146， -0.184， -0.275， -0.168， P<0.05 or 0.01）， and positively correlated with the A value （r=0.161， P<0.05）. Logistic regression analysis indicated that restriction on housework dimension in ADP was entered into the model （OR=0.930， 95% CI： 0.885~0.978）. ConclusionThe restriction on housework dimension in traditional Chinese postpartum practices may be a protective factor against postpartum depression.

Objective To investigate the short- and long-term prognoses and the risk factors affecting “textbook outcome” (TO) after laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Methods The clinical and follow-up data of patients diagnosed with PDAC and treated with LPD from January 2019 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The prognosis was compared between TO and non-TO groups, and univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent prognostic factors for TO. Results A total of 284 patients were enrolled in this study, including 185 cases in the TO group and 99 cases in the non-TO group. The 1-, 3- and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of the TO and non-TO groups with PDAC were 87.3% vs. 85.9%, 52.5% vs. 38.4%, and 18.0% vs. 4.5%, respectively (P=0.020); the recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates were 74.1% vs. 65.7%, 27.1% vs. 21.0%, and 10.0% vs. 0%, respectively (P=0.042). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that operation time >360 min (OR=0.561, 95%CI: 0.321-0.979, P=0.042), intraoperative blood loss >400 ml (OR=0.392, 95%CI: 0.175-0.879, P=0.023), hard or tough texture of pancreas (OR=2.240, 95%CI: 1.247-4.022, P=0.007), and main pancreatic duct diameter >3 mm (OR=1.931, 95%CI: 1.126-3.312, P=0.017) were independent prognostic factors for TO. Conclusion After the learning curve, more than 60% of patients with PDAC can achieve TO after LPD. The chances of achieving TO are significantly reduced when the operation time >360 min, the intraoperative blood loss >400 ml, the texture of pancreas was soft, and the diameter of the main pancreatic duct >3 mm.

BACKGROUND: As an essential part of health services, rehabilitation is of great significance to improve the health and quality of life of the whole population. Accelerating aging calls for a significant expansion of rehabilitation services in China, but rehabilitation needs remain unclear. We conducted the study to explore the rehabilitation needs in China and project the trend of rehabilitation needs from 2020 to 2034. METHODS: The data of health conditions that might potentially benefit from rehabilitation were obtained from Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study. Estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) were calculated to quantify the trends of the age-standardized rates. Projections of rehabilitation needs were made until 2034 using Bayesian age-period-cohort analysis (BAPC). RESULTS: Approximately 460 million persons (33.3% of the total population) need rehabilitation in China, contributing to 63 million years lived with disabilities (YLDs) in 2019. The number of prevalent cases that need rehabilitation increased from around 268 (95% uncertainty interval [UI]: 257-282) million in 1990 to almost 460 (95% UI: 443-479) million in 2019, representing an increase of 71.3%. The highest contribution to the need for rehabilitation was musculoskeletal disorders with about 322 (95% UI: 302-343) million persons in seven aggregate disease and injury categories, and hearing loss with over 95 (95% UI: 84-107) million people among 25 health conditions. Based on the projection results, there will be almost 636 million people (45% of the total population) needing rehabilitation services in China by 2034, representing an increase of 38.3%. The rehabilitation needs of neoplasms, cardiovascular diseases, and neurological disorders are expected to increase significantly from 2019 to 2034, with increases of 102.3%, 88.8% and 73.2%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The need for rehabilitation in China substantially increased over the last 30 years. It is predicted that over two in five people will require rehabilitation by 2034, thus suggesting the need to develop rehabilitation services that meet individuals' rehabilitation needs.

Objective To observe the influence of different acceleration factors(AF)on compressed sensing susceptibility weighted imaging(CS-SWI)for cerebral medullary veins of healthy people,and to screen the best AF.Methods Forty healthy volunteers were prospectively enrolled.Axial brain SWI images were obtained with CS technique under different AF(AF0,CS2,CS4,CS6,CS8 and CS10),and the phase value(PV)and standard deviation(SD)of bilateral septal vein(SV),internal cerebral vein(ICV),thalamus vein(TV),basal vein(BV)and dentate nucleus vein(DNV)were measured.Taken PV and SD of parietal white matter as controls,the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)of venous images were calculated.Then the original images were reconstructed with minimum intensity projection,and the subjective quality scoring of reconstructed images were performed using a 5-point scale.SNR,CNR,PV and quality score were compared among images under different AF,and the best AF,i.e.with the best performances for displaying and quantitatively analyzing cerebral medullary veins in healthy people was obtained.Results Compared with those acquired with AF0,SNR and CNR of all cerebral medullary veins acquired with CS6,CS8 and CS10 were significantly different(all adjusted P＜0.05).Meanwhile,significant differences of PV in bilateral SV and right TV were found among CS6,CS8 and CS10,also in bilateral ICV,left TV and bilateral BV between CS8 and CS10(all adjusted P＜0.05).Conclusion Excessive AF might decrease image quality of CS-SWI for cerebral medullary veins.CS4 was the best AF for displaying and quantitatively analyzing cerebral medullary veins in healthy people.

Objective:To explore the application value of quantitative flow ratio (QFR) in the hemodynamic evaluation of myocardial bridge and to preliminarily evaluate the correlation and related influencing factors between deformation quantitative flow ratio (D-QFR) and QFR.Methods:This is a cross-sectional study. Patients with CAG-confirmed simple myocardial bridge of the middle anterior descending coronary artery from June 2012 to June 2022 at the Air Force Medical Center were retrospectively included in this study. Systolic stenosis of mural coronary arteries (MCA) and myocardial bridge length were measured using quantitative coronary angiography. The patients were divided into mild stenosis group (<50% systolic stenosis) and moderate-to-severe stenosis group (≥50% systolic stenosis) according to the Nobel grading criteria. At different time periods (systolic and diastolic), the QFR values were measured at 3 locations (1 to 2 cm before the MCA entrance, the middle segment of the MCA, and 1 to 2 cm after the MCA exit), denoted as QFRa, QFRb, and QFRc, respectively, and the D-QFR values, incorporating vessel deformation information, were recorded. The MCA distal QFR≤0.8 in either stage was defined as an abnormal QFR value. QFR values were compared between the two groups at different locations and within each group. Factors associated with abnormal QFR values were analysed using multifactorial logistic regression. Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation between D-QFR values and systolic and diastolic QFR values.Multiple linear regression was used to analyse the factors associated with D-QFR.Results:A total of 83 patients were enrolled, including 58 males, aged (57.1±13.1) years. There were 48 cases in the mild stenosis group and 35 cases in the moderate-to-severe stenosis group, and the differences in systolic and diastolic QFRb and QFRc values between the two groups were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Within-group comparisons showed the values of QFRb and QFRc in the systolic phase were lower than those in the diastolic phase; QFRb and QFRc were both lower than QFRa during the same period (all P<0.05). Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that MCA systolic stenosis ( OR=1.225, 95% CI 1.093-1.372, P<0.001) was an influential factor for abnormal QFR. D-QFR values were positively correlated with both systolic and diastolic QFR values (correlation coefficients were 0.849 and 0.675, respectively, both P<0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that D-QFR values were negatively correlated with age ( β=-0.208, P=0.029), systolic stenosis ( β=-0.500, P<0.001), and myocardial bridge length ( β=-0.211, P=0.036). Conclusions:The QFR values in middle and distal of myocardial bridge decrease. The systolic stenosis rate of myocardial bridge is an important factor affecting QFR value. D-QFR is positively correlated with both systolic and diastolic QFR values. Age, myocardial bridge systolic stenosis rate and length are factors influencing the D-QFR values.
