In December 2023, a self-designed questionnaire was distributed to 7 980 clinical physicians, including 930 cardiologists. The survey collected demographic information, including work city (categorized as first-tier, new first-tier, second-tier, third-tier, and fourth-tier and below), hospital level, professional title, and department. And the awareness of LLM, and their application demands in clinical decision-making support, information filtering, and scientific research work were also collected. Differences in awareness and application requirements across geographic regions, hospital tiers, professional ranks, and medical departments were analyzed. Besides, specific demands of cardiovascular specialists were further examined.Results:Among the 7 980 clinical physicians, the awareness rate of LLM was 76.3% (6 088/7 980), and the utilization rate was 11.8% (942/7 980). For the 930 cardiologists, the awareness rate was 78.5% (730/930) and the utilization rate was 11.4% (106/930). Significant differences in awareness and utilization rates were observed across city tiers, hospital grades, and departments (all P<0.05). No significant difference was found among professional titles ( P=0.053). Among the 6 088 physicians aware of LLM, demand rates for clinical information filtering, clinical decision support, and research assistance were 87.3% (5 312/6 088), 78.4% (4 774/6 088), and 75.8% (4 616/6 088), respectively. For the 730 cardiologists aware of LLM, these rates were 91.0% (664/730), 79.2% (578/730), and 75.9% (554/730), respectively. Significant differences in demands for clinical information filtering and research assistance were observed across city tiers, hospital grades, professional titles, and departments (all P<0.05), while no significant difference was noted for decision support demands across hospital grades ( P=0.085). In clinical information screening and acquisition, cardiologists from different city tiers exhibited statistically significant differences in the demand for literature interpretation. Similarly, variations in the demand for conference summaries, expert biographies, healthcare policies, and social news were noted among cardiologists with different professional titles, while disparities in patient education and science popularization needs were identified across city tiers and hospital grades (all P<0.05). In clinical decision-making support, cardiologists from diverse city tiers and professional titles demonstrated distinct differences in guideline and consensus inquiries, and those from various city tiers showed varied demands for pharmaceutical and medical device-related content (all P<0.05). For research support, cardiologists across city tiers and professional titles exhibited statistically significant differences in trial protocol design requirements, while those from varying city tiers differed in literature search/analysis and research application procedures. Additionally, physicians from different hospital grades displayed divergent needs for data collection (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The adoption of LLM is significantly influenced by regional disparities, institutional resources, and professional backgrounds. Implementing targeted interventions, such as enhancing technical training, optimizing LLM functionalities, and improving accessibility across diverse healthcare settings, could encourage widespread integration of LLM into clinical practice. Such measures could ultimately enhance the quality and efficiency of medical services in China and foster innovations in healthcare delivery.

Objective:To understand the current situation of anxiety and depression in patients with atrial fibrillation who are going to undergo radiofrequency ablation and their family members and analyze the influencing factors.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 197 patients with atrial fibrillation and their family members who were admitted to Arrhythmia Center of Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University and planned to undergo radiofrequency ablation from October to December 2020 were selected as the research objects. The general information questionnaire, Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7) and Patient Health Questionaire-9 items (PHQ-9) were used to investigate them. Binomial logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors of anxiety and depression in patients with atrial fibrillation who were going to undergo radiofrequency ablation and their family members.Results:The PHQ-9 score of 197 patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing radiofrequency ablation was (3.9±3.8) , the GAD-7 score was (2.7±3.1) , the detection rate of depressive symptom was 34.5% (68/197) and the detection rate of anxiety symptom was 20.3% (40/197) . The PHQ-9 score of family members of patients was (1.9±3.0) , the GAD-7 score was (1.8±2.9) , the detection rate of anxiety symptom was 15.2% (30/197) and the detection rate of depressive symptoms was 16.2% (32/197) . Binomial Logistic regression analysis showed that the number of attacks in the past 1 month was greater than or equal to 4 times and the duration of atrial fibrillation episodes in the past 1 month was greater than or equal to 6 hours as the influencing factors of depressive symptoms ( P<0.05) . The number of seizures more than or equal to 4 in the past month was the influencing factor of anxiety symptoms of patients ( P<0.05) . The anxiety state of patients was the influencing factor of anxiety symptoms of family members ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The current situation of anxiety and depression in patients with atrial fibrillation who are going to undergo radiofrequency ablation and their family members is not optimistic. The recent frequent attack of atrial fibrillation is the influencing factor of anxiety and depression symptoms of patients and the anxiety state of patients is the influencing factor of anxiety symptoms of family members. Medical staff should also pay attention to the anxiety and depression of patients with atrial fibrillation who are going to undergo radiofrequency ablation and their family members and give effective interventions as soon as possible.

Gastric schwannoma is a tumor originating from mesenchymal tissue. The clinical incidence is relatively rare, accounting for 6.3% of all gastric stromal tumors. The tumor is more likely to occur in the body of the stomach and usually originates from the gastric submucosal nerve. Most gastric schwannomas do not have any clinical symptoms. Imaging examination can play a diagnostic role, but the diagnosis still requires pathological examination, especially S-100 protein which is the gold standard for the diagnosis of gastric schwannomas. Gastric schwannoma usually needs to be distinguished from gastrointestinal stromal tumors and gastrointestinal autonomic nerve tumors. In terms of treatment, complete surgical resection is the first choice.

Since December 2019, the corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) has been reported in Wuhan, Hubei Province. Almost 70% of patients susceptible to 2019-nCoV are over age of 50 years, with extremely large proportion of critical illness and death of the elderly patients. Meanwhile, the elderly patients are at high risk of osteoporotic fractures especially osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF). During the prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic, orthopedists are confronted with the following difficulties including how to screen and protect OVCF patients, how to accurately diagnose and assess the condition of OVCF patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19, and how to develop reasonable treatment plans and comprehensive protective measures in emergency and outpatient clinics. In order to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of patients with OVCF diagnosed with COVID-19, the authors jointly develop this expert consensus. The consensus systematically recommends the standardized emergency and outpatient screening and confirmation procedures for OVCF patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 and protective measures for emergency and outpatient clinics. Moreover, the consensus describes the grading and classification of OVCF patients diagnosed with COVID-19 according to the severity of illness and recommends different treatment plans and corresponding protective measures based on the different types and epidemic prevention and control requirements.
