Objective:To construct an objective evaluation system for disorders of consciousness(DOC)on the basis of visual stimulation of wearable device,so as to objectively evaluate DOC patients in clinical practice,and reduce misdiagnosis rate,and provide references for clinical treatment plans aimed at DOC.Methods:Twelve patients with disorders of consciousness,including vegetative state(VS),minimally conscious state(MCS),and suspected VS,who were treated at the Seventh Medical Center of Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital from March to May 2019,were selected and included in the DOC group.Twelve healthy subjects recruited during the same period were included in the healthy control group.Based on the Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS),the Coma Recovery Scale-Revised(CRS-R),and the Chinese Vegetative State Scale(CVSS),wearable devices were used to apply visual stimulation to the subjects,and eye movement feedback data were collected to design a quantitative scale.The scores of eye movement data in the visual positioning scheme and the visual tracking scheme were compared and analyzed.Results:The score of the visual tracking scheme in the healthy control group was(0.967±0.033)points,and the score of the visual positioning scheme was(0.005±0.004)points.There were statistically significant differences compared with the scores of patients in the DOC group in the three states(F=97.88,23.04,P＜0.05).According to the distribution characteristics of the eye movement data of the two groups,an objective evaluation scale for DOC was designed.Conclusion:The objective DOC evaluation system based on visual stimulation of wearable device can compensate the defect of higher subjectivity in the assessed results of clinical DOC by the indicators with objective data after it collects feedback data of eye-tracking based on visual stimulation,and processes and analyzes the designed quantitative scale.

Objective:This study aims to investigate the differences in emotional status and cognitive function among patients with vestibular migraine (VM), Meniere′s disease (MD), and their comorbidity (VMMD), and to analyze key factors influencing cognitive function.Methods:This cross-sectional study included 96 outpatients (32 males, 64 females, aged 21-73 years) from the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, between December 2022 and December 2023. The study population consisted of 31 VM patients (VM group), 36 MD patients (MD group), and 29 VMMD patients (VMMD group), along with 32 healthy controls (16 males, 16 females, aged 19-74 years). Cognitive function was assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), while emotional status and somatization symptoms were evaluated through the Generalized Anxiety Disorder scale, Patient Health Questionnaire Depression scale, Symptom Checklist-90, and the Self-rating Somatization Symptom scale. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to explore the influence of different variables on cognitive function.Results:The total MoCA score in the VMMD group (26.0 [24.5, 28.0]) was significantly lower than that in the control group (28.0 [27.0, 29.0]) and the MD group (28.0 [26.0, 30.0]) ( P=0.006). VMMD patients exhibited significant impairments in specific cognitive domains, including visuospatial/executive function, delayed recall, and orientation ( P<0.05). Patients with VM, MD, and VMMD showed higher rates of anxiety, depression, and somatization symptoms compared to the control group ( P<0.05), with the VMMD group experiencing the most severe emotional distress. Multiple linear regression analysis identified education level and vestibular disease type as key factors affecting cognitive function, with a university-level education predicting higher MoCA scores ( P<0.001), while VMMD was associated with cognitive decline ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Patients with VM and MD, particularly those with comorbid VMMD, exhibit significant emotional distress. Cognitive impairments are present in VM and VMMD patients, affecting different cognitive domains. These factors should be comprehensively considered in clinical assessments to develop more effective treatment strategies.

Objective To explore the efficacy of single and combined parameters from 4 non-Gaussian diffusion models for differentiating breast imaging reporting and data system(BI-RADS)MRI category 4 benign and malignant breast tumors.Methods A total of 161 BI-RADS MRI category 4 breast lesions from 159 patients were retrospectively enrolled.Based on pathological results,the lesions were divided into malignant group(n=132)and benign group(n=29).The apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)values were calculated from diffusion weighted imaging(DWI)sequences.Multi-b-value diffusion imaging data were acquired and fitted using 4 non-Gaussian models to obtain respective parameters,including diffusion kurtosis imaging(DKI),stretched exponential model(SEM),continuous-time random walk(CTRW)and fractional order calculus(FROC)model.Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were employed to identify the diffusion quantitative indicators useful for differentiating benign and malignant BI-RADS MRI category 4 breast tumors.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were drawn,and the optimal threshold was determined using Youden index.The differentiating performance of ADC value,single parameter and their combination from non-Gaussian diffusion models were assessed and compared according to the area under the curve(AUC)of ROC curves,as well as the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy under the optimal thresholds.Results In malignant group,αCTRW,KDKI and μFROC values were higher,while ADC,DCTRW,DFROC,DDCSEM,αSEM and DDKI values were lower than those in benign group(all P＜0.05).Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified DCTRW and αCTRW values as independent factors for differentiating benign and malignant BI-RADS MRI category 4 breast tumors(both P＜0.05),and a combined model was then constructed.The AUC of the combined model was higher than that of each single parameter including ADC,DCTRW and αCTRW values(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The combined model of DCTRW and αCTRW had better efficacy than each single parameter for differentiating benign and malignant BI-RADS MRI category 4 breast tumors.

Objective:A microsurgical simulation training device based on real clinical scenes was designed and its effectiveness was tested.Methods:From January 1, 2020 to January 1, 2023, postgraduate students in the Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Department of the First Medical Center of PLA General Hospital and the Plastic Surgery Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were enrolled in this prospective study. The simulation training device consists of four parts: (1)Blood perfusion system, which is used to simulate living animal blood vessels.(2)The inner baffling rod system, which is used to simulate the operation in deep cavity.(3) The exterior baffling rod system, which is used to simulate the operation in difficult positions.(4) A pulsating platform system is used to simulate microsurgery under the influence of respiratory movement. Preliminary verification of the effect of the simulated training device was as follows: Surgeons with no experience in microsurgery were completely randomized assigned to the control group (traditional microsurgery training group) and the experimental group (training group using the simulated training device). After 4 weeks of microsurgical training, the trainees were assigned to perform two surgical skill assessments, the first using a live animal model for end-to-end anastomosis of rat tail arteries, and the second assessment using end-to-end anastomosis of free latissimus dorsi flap arteries in a real case. The performance of the two groups was compared by using operation time and microsurgical GRS score scale including four items of dexterity, visuospatial ability, operative flow and judgment. Chi-squared test was used to analyze gender between the two groups. GRS scores between the two groups were compared by the Mann-Whitney U test. Participants’ ageand operation time between the two groups was compared by independent t-test. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:A total of 18 trainees were enrolled, including 10 in the control group, 6 males and 4 females, with an average age of (27.80±1.87) years. There were 8 subjects in the experimental group, 4 males and 4 females, with an average age of (28.10±1.56) years old. There were no significant differences in age, gender and other baseline characteristics between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in GRS score and operation time between the control group and the experimental group ( P> 0.05) in the first assessment. However, in the second assessment of real cases, the GRS score of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group(14.25 vs. 5.70), and the operation duration of the experimental group was also shorter than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant[(100.37±24.65 ) min vs. (105.60±22.84) min] ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with traditional microsurgery training methods, using microsurgery training devices based on clinical real scenes can effectively shorten the learning curve and enable trainees to master complex micromanipulation skills more quickly.

Fibroblast activation protein inhibitors(FAPI)can specifically bind to fibroblast activation protein,which is highly expressed in tumor stroma,and 68Ga-FAPI do not get involved into the procedure of glucose metabolism in tumor cells.68Ga-FAPI PET/CT and PET/MR can be used for displaying malignant tumors at various sites and play a unique role for diagnosis and differential diagnosis.The research progresses of 68 Ga-FAPI-based PET/CT and PET/MR for diagnosing malignant tumors were reviewed in this article.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
