Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.

Objective:To investigate the association between blood selenium levels and sex hormones in Chinese men aged 18-79 years.Methods:Data were derived from the China National Human Biomonitoring survey conducted in 2017-2018, with a final sample size of 5 414 men. General demographic characteristics, behavioral habits, and dietary frequency were collected through questionnaires and physical examinations. Fasting blood samples were collected to measure blood lead, serum testosterone, and estradiol levels. Complex sampling linear regression models were used to analyze the associations between blood selenium levels and testosterone, estradiol, and the testosterone/estradiol ratio, adjusting for confounding factors including age, education level, marital status, smoking status, alcohol consumption, seafood intake, soy product intake, protein supplement intake, BMI, and diabetes status.Results:The mean age of the 5 414 participants was (46.85±27.91) years; 4 774 (91.65%) were of Han ethnicity and 4 505 (86.68%) were married. The median ( Q1, Q3) blood selenium concentration in men was 97.80 (80.64, 116.99) μg/L. After adjusting for confounding factors, the complex sampling linear regression model revealed negative associations between blood selenium levels and both testosterone levels and the testosterone/estradiol ratio, with a significant linear trend ( Ptrend<0.05). Compared with the Q1 group, the β (95% CI) values for testosterone in the Q2, Q3, and Q4 groups were -0.02 (-0.06 to 0.02), -0.03 (-0.08 to 0.01), and -0.06 (-0.09 to -0.02), respectively. Similarly, the β (95% CI) values for the testosterone/estradiol ratio in the Q2, Q3, and Q4 groups were -0.01 (-0.03 to 0.02), -0.01 (-0.04 to 0.04), and -0.03 (-0.06 to -0.01), respectively. Subgroup analysis indicated stronger associations between blood selenium levels and testosterone/estradiol levels in non-smoking and obese men (BMI≥28 kg/m2). Conclusion:Blood selenium levels are negatively associated with testosterone levels and the testosterone/estradiol ratio in Chinese adult males.

Transient perivascular inflammation of the carotid artery(TIPIC)syndrome is a relatively rare disease,and ultrasound is the first screening method for initial diagnosis of the disease.Contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS)has unique advantages in the follow-up of patients with TIPIC syndrome.This paper reports a patient with TIPIC syndrome who was treated with acute left neck pain.The inflammation was significantly re-lieved and subsided after treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.The ultrasound changes of carotid artery lesions in this patient during follow-up were analyzed,and the application value of CEUS in the follow-up diagnosis of this disease was summarized,in the hope of providing clinical reference.

OBJECTIVE To assess the correlation between the steady-state minimal concentration （cmin） and 24 h area under the drug concentration-time curve （AUC24）/minimal inhibitory concentration （MIC） ratio （AUC24/MIC） of vancomycin in pediatric patients， and analyze independent risk factors for treatment failure. METHODS Data of hospitalized children treated with vancomycin and receiving therapeutic drug monitoring in our hospital from January 2021 to July 2024 were retrospectively collected and divided into success group and failure group according to whether the treatment was successful or not. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between cmin and AUC24/MIC of vancomycin， and one-way and multifactorial Logistic regression analyses were used to screen the independent risk factors for vancomycin treatment failure. RESULTS A total of 59 children were included， with 41 in the success group and 18 in the failure group. Compared with the failure group， AUC24/MIC of vancomycin was significantly higher in the success group （P＝0.038）， but there was no statistically significant difference in the cmin of the two groups （P＞0.05）； cmin of vancomycin was significantly positively correlated with AUC24/MIC （r＝0.499， P＜0.001）， but it has a certain efficacy in predicting the achievement of the AUC24/MIC standard （≥400） （area under the receiver operator characteristic curve＝0.696）， with an optimal cutoff value of 6.05 mg/L determined by the Youden index. The efficacy of AUC24/ MIC in predicting treatment failure was superior to cmin （areas under the receiver operator characteristic curve were 0.671 vs. 0.523， P were 0.038 vs. 0.684）， with higher sensitivity （83.3% vs. 66.7%）. Hypoproteinemia and AUC24/MIC≤369.1 were independent risk factors for vancomycin treatment failure （P＜0.05）. The incidence of nephrotoxicity was 3.4%. CONCLUSIONS There is a significant positive correlation between cmin and AUC24/MIC of vancomycin in pediatric patients； hypoproteinemia and AUC24/MIC≤369.1 are independent risk factors for vancomycin treatment failure in children.

Objective:To assess the efficacy and safety of azacitidine combined with lenalidomide in MDS patients and explore potential mechanisms of therapeutic response.Methods:Sixteen MDS patients with TP53 mutations received azacitidine plus lenalidomide at ZhongDa Hospital, Southeast University (January 2021–June 2025). Efficacy and safety were assessed, and TP53 mutation status was correlated with treatment response. Whole-transcriptome sequencing and bioinformatics were used to explore molecular biomarkers associated with therapeutic efficacy.Results:Sixteen patients (median age 69.5 years, range 52–82; 8 males, 8 females) were enrolled. According to the Molecular International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-M), 1, 2, and 13 patients were classified as median low, high, and very high risk, respectively. Among 16 TP53-mutated patients, 11 had biallelic mutations and 5 had monoallelic mutations. Overall response rate was 56.3% (9/16), composite complete remission rate (CRc) was 31.3% (5/16), and hematology improvement rate was 25% (4/16). Among TP53-mutated patients, the response rate was 56.3% (9/16), with variant allele frequency dropping from 65.6% to 16.5% in responders ( P=0.017). In patients with TP53 mutations and complex karyotype, response rate was 53.8% (7/13), with 57.1% (4/7) showing disappearance of CK post-treatment. The most common grade 3–4 nonhematologic adverse events were infections (9/16, 56.3% ), including pneumonia (4/16, 25.0% ), gastrointestinal infections (3/16, 18.8% ), perianal infections (1/16, 6.3% ) and sepsis (1/16, 6.3% ). High CBX8 expression may be linked to treatment response. Conclusion:Azacitidine plus lenalidomide is an effective and safe therapy for MDS, including patients with TP53 mutations and complex karyotypes. Treatment markedly reduces TP53 variant allele frequency in responders, and high CBX8 expression may predict therapeutic response.

Objective To analyze the application of flipped classroom in the practical teaching of rehabilitation assessment courses for rehabilitation therapy majors,and to explore a new teaching method for rehabilitation therapy.Methods Eighty students majoring in rehabilitation therapy from the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of Guangzhou Xinhua University in grade 2020 were selected as the research objects.They were assigned into observation group or control group according to the random number table method,with 40 cases in each group.The observation group adopted the flip classroom teaching mode,and the rehabilitation assessment course teaching based on flipped classroom was carried out,while the control group adopted the traditional teaching mode.The students'theoretical and operational assessment results,teaching effect,and teaching model satisfaction were analyzed.Results No statistically significant differences were found in theoretical test scores between the two student groups(by gender/course).The students in the observation group had higher theoretical scores[(80.25±11.65 vs 72.50±14.28)score].The observation group showed significantly higher satisfaction scores than the control group across all three dimensions:classroom learning enthusiasm,teacher-student interaction,and overall teaching satisfaction.(P<0.05).Conclusion The application of flipped classroom in the rehabilitation therapy teaching is helpful to improve the professional theoretical level of students,and to a certain extent,it is beneficial to improve the professional level of teachers.

Objective To analyze the serum metabolomic changes of preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)at postmenstrual age(PMA)36 weeks,screen potential biomarkers and associated metabolic pathways,and assess their relationship with short-term respiratory outcomes.Methods A retrospective case-control study was conducted.Infants with gestational age 28-32 weeks admitted to the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from January to December 2024 were included.Twenty infants with BPD and 20 gestational age-,birth weight-,and sex-matched non-BPD preterm infants were included.Serum collected at PMA 36 weeks was subjected to untargeted metabolomics analysis,and associations with short-term respiratory outcomes were analyzed.Results Thirteen potential biomarkers distinguishing BPD were identified(area under the curve>0.75,P<0.05).Eight biomarkers—including terephthalic acid,phosphatidylinositol,fumarate,and lysophosphatidic acid—were significantly upregulated(FC≥1.5),while five biomarkers,such as 7α-hydroxy-3-oxo-4-cholestenoate ester and phosphatidylcholine,were significantly downregulated(FC≤1/1.5).Pathway analysis indicated five pathways associated with BPD,including glycerophospholipid metabolism and phenylalanine metabolism.Dysregulation of glycerophospholipid and bile acid metabolism may affect adverse short-term respiratory outcomes in infants with BPD.Conclusions The 13 significantly different metabolites may serve as biomarkers for the diagnosis of BPD.Glycerophospholipid metabolism is associated with the occurrence of BPD and with adverse short-term respiratory outcomes.

Objective To investigate changes in the pro-inflammatory mediator S100A8/9 and NLRP3/Caspase-1/IL-1β pathway in a rat kidney-aging model induced by D-galactose.Methods Twelve SD rats were divided into control and D-galactose groups,and injected subcutaneously in the back of the neck with D-galactose(150 mg/kg)to establish a rat model of kidney aging.Kidney samples were collected under anesthesia after 8 weeks.Kidneys were stained for senescence-associated beta-galactosidase(SA-β-Gal),mRNA expression levels of the aging-related genes p21,p16,and p53 were detected by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR),and histopathological changes were observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)and Masson staining.Serum urea nitrogen and creatinine,and catalase(CAT),glutathione peroxidase(GSH-PX),superoxide dismutase(SOD),and malondialdehyde(MDA)levels in the kidney tissues were detected.Reactive oxygen species(ROS)were detected by dihydroethdium staining and protein expression levels of collagen Ⅲ,α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA),Protein expression of S100A8/9 was detected by immunofluorescence,and transforming growth factor(TGF)-β1 levels in kidney tissues and key factors in the NLRP3/Caspase-1/IL-1β inflammatory pathway were detected by Western Blot.A renal senescence model using HK-2 cells was constructed using H2O2 in vitro,and expression levels of the senescence proteins p21 and p16 and mRNA expression levels of the inflammatory factors IL-18 and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)were detected.Cell senescence was observed by SA-β-Gal staining.The effects of the S100A8/9 inhibitor paquinimod on expression levels of S100A8/9 and NLRP3/Caspase-1/IL-1β pathway-related proteins in the aging model were also detected.Results mRNA levels of the aging genes p21,p16,and p53 in kidney tissues were significantly increased in rats in the D-galactose group compared with the control group(P＜0.01),and SA-β-Gal staining showed a significant increase in senescent cells(P＜0.01).Serum blood urea nitrogen and creatinine levels increased(P＜0.05),CAT,GSH-PX,and SOD activities decreased(P＜0.01),while MDA activity increased in the D-galactose group(P＜0.01).Collagen Ⅲ,α-SMA,and TGFβ1 expression and the ROS content in tissues increased(P＜0.05).Glomeruli were atrophied or absent in the D-galactose group,the lumens of the renal sacs and renal tubules were enlarged,the nuclei were deeply stained and constricted,and numerous collagen fibers were deposited.Levels of S100A8 and S100A9 protein(P＜0.01),as well as NLRP3,Caspase-1,and IL-1β increased(P＜0.05).Paquinimod alleviated HK-2 cell senescence and decreased expression levels of the senescence proteins p21 and p16,and mRNA levels of the inflammatory factors IL-18 and TNF-α(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The number of senile cells was also decreased,shown by SA-β-Gal staining(P＜0.01).Paquinimod also inhibited the protein expression of S100A8 and S100A9(P＜0.01)and NLRP3,Caspase-1,and IL-1β(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusions S100A8/9 participates in the chronic inflammatory response by activating the NLRP3/Caspase-1/IL-1β pathway,thereby promoting D-galactose-induced renal aging.
