With the rapid advancement of hemodynamic indices and monitoring technologies, their classification methods and application processes have become increasingly complex. Currently, no unified standard hasbeen established, making it difficult to fully meet the clinical requirements for hemodynamic management. To assist in hemodynamic monitoring assessment and therapeutic decision-making in critically ill patients, the Critical Hemodynamic Therapy Collaborative Group, in conjunction with the Critical Ultrasound Study Group, has jointly developed the Standard for the Application of Hemodynamic Monitoring Techniques in Critical Care. The first part of this standard systematically categorizes hemodynamic indicators into flow indicators, pressure and its derivative indicators, and tissue perfusion indicators, while elaborating on the clinical application of each. The second part establishes a standardized clinical implementation pathway for hemodynamic monitoring. It proposes a tiered monitoring strategy-comprising basic, advanced, indication-specific, and special scenario monitoring-tailored to different clinical settings. It emphasizes the central role of critical care ultrasound across all levels of monitoring and establishes hemodynamic assessment standards for organs such as the brain, kidneys, and gastrointestinal tract. This standard aims to provide a unified framework for clinical practice, teaching, training, and research in critical care medicine, thereby promoting standardized development within the discipline.

ObjectiveTo analyze the characteristics of 150 patients with spinal cord injury complicated with spasticity. MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted on 150 patients with spinal cord injury accompanied by spasticity from September, 2019 to December, 2024. Their age, gender, cause of injury, injury site, severity of injury, spasticity severity and other indicators were recorded. The relationships between different characteristics were analyzed, and a correlation analysis of disease duration, spasticity grade, injury level, injury severity and age were conducted. ResultsThere was no significant difference in age distribution between patients with tetraplegia and paraplegia (Z = 0.806, P = 0.420). The proportions of trauma (χ2 = 3.982, P = 0.046) and tetraplegia (χ2 = 10.559, P = 0.010) were higher in males than in females. Trauma was the main cause of injury in both tetraplegia and paraplegia patients; the proportion of tetraplegia was higher than paraplegia in trauma patients, while paraplegia was higher than tetraplegia in non-trauma patients (χ2 = 11.885, P < 0.001). Patients with tetraplegia was dominated by incomplete injury, whereas patients with paraplegia was dominated by complete injury (χ2 = 10.885, P = 0.012). Grade A injury was predominant in trauma patients (P = 0.003). Spasticity grade showed a very weak positive correlation with disease duration (r = 0.175, P = 0.032) and age (r = 0.168, P = 0.040). Injury severity showed a very weak positive correlation with age (r = 0.183, P = 0.025). ConclusionCharacteristics of patients with spinal cord injury complicated with spasticity is different with gender, cause of injury, injury level, injury severity.

ObjectiveTo investigate the association between serum fasting triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) and new-onset metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) within 10 years. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the data of individuals who underwent physical examination in The Affiliated Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Southwest Medical University in 2013, 2018, and 2023 and were not diagnosed with MAFLD in 2013, and a total of 1 340 valid subjects were enrolled according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The gbmt package in R 4.3.0 was used to construct the dynamic change trajectory model of TyG-BMI, and four different TyG-BMI trajectory groups were determined, i.e., the low-level group (n=352), the medium-level group (n=517), the high-level group (n=314), and the extremely high-level group (n=157). The data on general information and blood biochemical parameters were collected from all subjects and were then compared between groups. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups, and the Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data with heterogeneity of variance between multiple groups. The Cox regression analysis was used to investigate the association between different TyG-BMI trajectories and the risk of MAFLD, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to assess the value of TyG-BMI in the diagnosis of MAFLD. ResultsThe cumulative incidence rate of MAFLD increased with the increase in the level of TyG-BMI trajectory, with a cumulative incidence rate of 4.83% in the low-level group, 29.98% in the medium-level group, 61.15% in the high-level group, and 83.44% in the extremely high-level group (P<0.001), and the cumulative incidence rate of MAFLD in men was significantly higher than that in women (51.34% vs 20.67%, P<0.001). The multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that increases in the levels of TyG-BMI trajectory, uric acid, diastolic blood pressure, hemoglobin, and alanine aminotransferase were independent risk factors for the onset of MAFLD (all P<0.05), while the increase in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol was an independent protective factor against MAFLD (P<0.001). After adjustment for confounding factors, the medium-, high-, and extremely high-level groups had a hazard ratio of 4.430 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.660 — 7.377, P<0.001), 6.937 (95%CI: 4.110 — 11.708, P<0.001), and 7.989 (95%CI: 4.616 — 13.827, P<0.001), respectively. The ROC curve analysis showed that TyG-BMI had the highest diagnostic value, with an area under the ROC curve of 0.859 (95%CI: 0.840 — 0.879), a sensitivity of 79.8%, and a specificity of 76.3%. ConclusionThe risk of MAFLD increases with the increase in the level of TyG-BMI trajectory, and TyG-BMI can be used as a predictive indicator for MAFLD.

Objective To investigate the capacity of municipal and county-level Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in Shandong Province for γ radionuclides in food as well as gross α and gross β in drinking water, and to provide evidence for strengthening radiological laboratories. Method Data regarding radioactive detection capacity were collected from 16 prefecture-level cities and 136 county-level CDCs. Chi-square test and Fisher's exact tests were used to compare capacity differences across regions and between cities with and without nuclear power plants. Correlation analysis was used to evaluate the spatial equity of gross α and gross β detection capacity for drinking water. Result The detection capacity of gross α and gross β in drinking water varied significantly among counties (χ2=81.026, P<0.001),no significant difference was found between coastal and inland cities (χ2=2.021,P>0.155); Cities with nuclear power plants showed better detection capacity (χ2=20.253,P<0.01). The detection capacity for γ radionuclides in food was primarily concentrated in the prefecture-level cities that host nuclear power plants. Conclusion The overall detection capacity for radioactivity in drinking water was acceptable but spatially uneven. The capacity for monitoring radioactive contamination in food was generally weak. It is necessary to strengthen capacity building at the grassroots level.

Cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury model was established in the mice of MCAO/R group using the thread occlusion. In the MCAO/R+2-DG group, mice received an intraperitoneal injection of 250 mg/kg of 2-DG 90 min before ischemia. Mice in the MCAO/R+ Nala group was given an intraventricular injection of 2 μL of 100 mmol/L Nala 24 h before ischemia. Commercial kits was used to detect lactate levels, Hematoxylin & Eosin Staining (HE) was employed to observe cell morphology, Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) was performed to assess cell apoptosis, and immunofluorescence was utilized to detect reactive oxygen species (ROS). Western blot was conducted to measure SOD2, Superoxide Dismutase 2 Lysine 114 Lactylation(SOD2-K114la), Iron regulatory protein 2(IRP2) and transferrin receptor protein 1(TFR1) levels. The above indicators were analyzed and compared by one-way variance.Results:Compared with the Sham group, the MCAO/R group showed increased levels of lactate, SOD2-K114la, TUNEL positive rate, ROS, IRP2 and TFR1[lactate: (0.608±0.064) vs. (0.376±0.030), P<0.005; SOD2-K114la: (2.311±0.146) vs. (1.009±0.073), P<0.0005; TUNEL positive rate: (35.420±2.832) vs. (0.294±0.147), P<0.0001; ROS: (3.415±0.229) vs. (1.166±0.155), P<0.0001; IRP2: (1.735±0.125) vs. (1.000±0.000), P<0.0001; TFR1: (1.611±0.058) vs. (1.000±0.000), P<0.0001], while SOD2 decreased[(0.545±0.062) vs. (1.082±0.088), P<0.0001]. HE staining indicated brain damage. Compared with the MCAO/R group, the MCAO/R+2-DG group showed reduced levels of lactate, SOD2-K114la, TUNEL positive rate, ROS, IRP2, and TFR1[lactate: (0.453±0.047) vs. (0.608±0.064), P<0.05; SOD2-K114la: (1.764±0.188) vs. (2.311±0.146), P<0.05; TUNEL positive rate: (23.800±3.168) vs. (35.420±2.832), P<0.005; ROS: (2.640±0.213) vs. (3.415±0.229), P<0.005; IRP2: (1.463±0.055) vs. (1.735±0.125), P<0.05; TFR1: (1.252±0.081) vs. (1.611±0.058), P<0.005], with higher level of SOD2 [(0.727±0.026) vs. (0.545±0.062), P<0.05]. Meanwhile, HE staining indicated reduced damage. Compared with the MCAO/R group, the MCAO/R+Nala group showed increased levels of lactate, SOD2-K114la, TUNEL positive rate, ROS, IRP2 and TFR1[lactate: (1.021±0.051) vs. (0.608±0.064), P<0.0001; SOD2-K114la: (3.479±0.275) vs. (2.311±0.146), P<0.0005; TUNEL positive rate: (53.430±3.551) vs. (35.420±2.832), P<0.0001; ROS: (4.687±0.253) vs. (3.415±0.229), P<0.0001; IRP2: (2.463±0.117) vs. (1.735±0.125), P<0.0001; TFR1: (2.209±0.094) vs. (1.611±0.058), P<0.0001], with decreased levels of SOD2 [(0.286±0.040) vs. (0.545±0.062), P<0.0001]. And HE staining revealed worsened braindamage. Conclusions:Increased lactate levels can enhance the lactylation of SOD2, exacerbating brain damage after Cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury(CIRI). Inhibiting lactate production may alleviate brain injury by regulating iron Metabolism.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of a novel reduction device in the treatment of A3N0/1 thoracolumbar fracture using navigation-assisted techniques.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 45 patients (29 males, 16 females; mean age 40.67±16.11 years, range 24-57) with thoracolumbar fractures who underwent fracture reduction and pedicle screw fixation via the Wiltse approach at Zhengzhou Orthopaedic Hospital between January 2022 and January 2023. Injury levels included: T 10 in 2 cases, T 11 in 5 cases, T 12 in 13 cases, L 1 in 20 cases, L 2 in 3 cases, L 3 in 2 cases. All patients underwent fracture reduction via the Wiltse approach using the spinal fracture reduction instrument for vertebral body reduction. Among them, 20 patients received O-arm navigation-assisted internal fixation and vertebral reduction (O-arm group), while 25 received C-arm fluoroscopy-guided internal fixation and vertebral reduction (C-arm group). Operative time, intraoperative blood loss, vertebral reduction time using the instrument, first-time screw placement success rate, screw placement accuracy, and complications were compared. Mid-vertebral body height ratio (MVBHr), local Cobb angle of the fractured vertebra, visual analogue scale (VAS) score, and Oswestry disability index (ODI) were compared preoperatively, at 1 week postoperatively, 3 months postoperatively, and final follow-up. Results:All surgeries were successfully completed in both groups. Operative time was significantly shorter in the O-arm group (106.8±14.4 min) than in the C-arm group (119.1±16.4 min, P<0.05). All patients were followed up for a mean duration of 15.9±3.9 months (range 12-20 months). Vertebral reduction time was significantly shorter in the O-arm group (11.0±2.2 min) than in the C-arm group (20.4±5.7 min, P<0.05). The first-time screw placement success rate was significantly higher in the O-arm group (100%) than in the C-arm group (95.3%, P<0.05). Screw placement accuracy (Grade I) was significantly higher in the O-arm group (117 screws, 97.5%) than in the C-arm group (136 screws, 90.7%, P<0.05). No cases of wrong-level surgery, infection, or spinal cord/nerve injury occurred. Both groups showed significant improvements in MVBHr, Cobb angle, VAS, and ODI at all postoperative time points compared to preoperative values ( P<0.05). At final follow-up, the O-arm group demonstrated significantly better outcomes than the C-arm group in MVBHr (90.6%±4.5% vs. 86.4%±6.9%, P<0.05), Cobb angle (7.6°±1.8° vs. 10.1°±3.2°, P<0.05), VAS (1.3±0.4 vs. 1.7±0.6, P<0.05), and ODI (4.6%±1.9% vs. 7.7%±2.0%, P<0.01). Conclusion:O-arm navigation-assisted intrasegmental push reduction for A3N0/1 type thoracolumbar fractures demonstrates advantages including faster and more accurate screw placement, precise reduction with improved outcomes, and significant postoperative pain relief.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of intraoperative optimization of regional cerebral oxygen saturation(rSO 2C) intervention on postoperative delirium(POD) in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB). Methods:Two hundred and seventy-three pediatric patients of both sexes, aged 28 days-6 yr, with American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification ≤Ⅳ, scheduled for elective cardiac surgery under CPB, were divided into intervention group( n=136) and control group( n=137) based on the computer random coding. In intervention group, optimized intervention measures were given when rSO 2C was below 75% of the baseline value for more than 1 min. In control group, rSO 2C was not monitored during operation, and intraoperative management was performed according to the routine monitoring indicators of pediatric cardiac surgery under CPB. The occurrence of POD within 7 days after operation was evaluated, and the duration and first occurrence time of POD were recorded. Results:Compared with control group, no significant change was found in the incidence of POD( P>0.05), the first occurrence time of POD was significantly prolonged, and the duration of POD was shortened in intervention group( P<0.05). Conclusions:Intraoperative optimization of rSO 2C intervention can delay the time to the first occurrence of POD and shorten the duration in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery under CPB.
