Neurocritical care involves complex pathophysiological mechanisms, and its incidence is higher, injuries are more severe, and treatment is more challenging in high-altitude environments. This consensus, based on the latest domestic and international evidence-based medical data, establishes a standardized, goal-oriented framework for neurocritical care management applicable in high-altitude regions and nationwide. The consensus was developed following international standards for evidence quality assessment and underwent two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, resulting in 32 recommendation statements covering three parts: management systems, monitoring and assessment, and core strategies. Key updates include: advocating for the establishment of independent neurocritical care units and implementing precise tiered diagnosis and treatment based on the "Five Differences in Critical Care" concept; constructing a "trinity" multimodal brain monitoring system centered on cerebral blood flow, cerebral oxygenation, and brain function, emphasizing routine bedside transcranial Doppler ultrasound, cerebral oximetry, and continuous electroencephalography monitoring; shifting management strategies from mild hypothermia therapy to targeted temperature management, and defining the "446" target management pathway for the supercritical stage; emphasizing the assessment of static and dynamic cerebrovascular autoregulation functions through multimodal methods to achieve individualized optimal mean arterial pressure management; elevating cerebrospinal fluid management goals to the level of "glymphatic system" function maintenance; implementing a multidisciplinary collaborative, whole-process management model focusing on patients' long-term neurological functional outcomes; de-escalation criteria include multidimensional indicators such as recovery of brain structure, restoration of cerebrovascular autoregulation, improvement in cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, and reduction in biomarker levels; and integrating cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence into post-critical care management and rehabilitation planning. This consensus systematically integrates the entire process of neurocritical care management, reflecting the modern connotation of goal-oriented, dynamic, and multimodal integration in neurocritical care medicine. It aims to adapt to new trends such as deepening understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms, the integration of medicine and engineering, and the empowerment of artificial intelligence, thereby further advancing the discipline of critical care medicine.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of an integrated laparoscopic simulation training course (best essential surgical technique training, BEST) in enhancing laparoscopic peritoneal suturing techniques in surgical residents.Methods As an integrated two-stage program, the BEST course applied basic laparoscopic training system with simple molds in phase Ⅰ training, and then adopted advanced laparoscopic training system, 3D Laparoscope and ex-vivo animal models in phase Ⅱ training. The laparoscopic suturing techniques were practiced in phase Ⅱ training. From August 2021 to July 2024, surgical residents in the second year of the national standardized training program were divided into pilot and control groups based on whether they had undergone the BEST course. Two cases of laparoscopic peritoneal suture were performed by the surgical residents under supervision in the department of gastrointestinal surgery. The operative time, quality of suture, and independent completion rate were compared between the two groups.Results A total of 33 surgical residents (19 in pilot group and 14 in control group) were included in this study, and a total of 66 cases of laparoscopic peritoneal suture were performed (38 in pilot group and 28 in control group). The operative time was significantly shorter in pilot group than that in control group (15.7 min vs. 17.5 min, P=0.025). The quality of suture was significantly better in pilot group compared to control group (P=0.023). In pilot group, all peritoneal sutures were performed by residents independently, whereas in control group, 3 cases (10.7%) were assisted by the supervisor, and the independent completion rate was different significantly (P=0.039).Conclusions The BEST course can help improve surgical residents′ laparoscopic peritoneal suturing techniques and could be promoted in the national standardized training program for surgical residents.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of clinically isolated Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis in hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021,and provide evidence for rational use of antimicrobial agents.Methods Data of H.influenzae and M.catarrhalis strains isolated from 2015 to 2021 in CHINET program were collected for analysis,and antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by disc diffusion method or automated systems according to the uniform protocol of CHINET.The results were interpreted according to the CLSI breakpoints in 2022.Beta-lactamases was detected by using nitrocefin disk.Results From 2015 to 2021,a total of 43 642 strains of Haemophilus species were isolated,accounting for 2.91％of the total clinical isolates and 4.07％of Gram-negative bacteria in CHINET program.Among the 40 437 strains of H.influenzae,66.89％were isolated from children and 33.11％were isolated from adults.More than 90％of the H.influenzae strains were isolated from respiratory tract specimens.The prevalence of β-lactamase was 53.79％in H.influenzae strains.The H.influenzae strains isolated from children showed higher resistance rate than the strains isolated from adults.Overall,779 strains of H.influenzae did not produce β-lactamase but were resistant to ampicillin(BLNAR).Beta-lactamase-producing strains showed significantly higher resistance rates to these antimicrobial agents than the β-lactamase-nonproducing strains.Of the 16 191 M.catarrhalis strains,80.06％were isolated from children and 19.94％isolated from adults.M.catarrhalis strains were mostly susceptible to both amoxicillin-clavulanic acid and cefuroxime,evidenced by resistance rate lower than 2.0％.Conclusions The emergence of antibiotic-resistant H.influenzae due to β-lactamase production poses a challenge for clinical anti-infective treatment.Therefore,it is very important to implement antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae and guide rational antibiotic use.All local clinical microbiology laboratories should actively improve antibiotic susceptibility testing and strengthen antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae.

Objective To investigate the characteristics and development of stops consonant production in Mandarin-speaking prelingually deaf children after cochlear implantation.Methods Thirty prelingually deaf children with a mean age of 4.37 years(SD=1.57)who received unilateral cochlear implantation(CI)under the age of 3,and thirty age-matched normal hearing(NH)children with a mean age of 4.02 years(SD=0.67)participated in the test.Word lists developed by Institute of Linguistics,Chinese Academy of Social Sciences were selected.The accu-racy of the stops(/b/,/d/,/p/,/t/,/k/,/g/)production performance and error types were analyzed.Results① The accuracy of children's stops output in the CI group was significantly lower than that in the NH group.The correct rate of each stop in the CI group was/b/＞/d/＞/p/＞/t/＞/g/＞/k/,and that in the NH group was/b/＞/p/＞/d/＞/t/＞/g/＞/k/.② The error type of CI children's stops output was similar to the NH group,with the main error being substitution error.The most common errors involved substitutions within the same place of ar-ticulation,and the more difficult sounds being replaced by the easier ones.③ With the increase in physiological age and hearing age,the total accuracy of stops production of CI children increased.The greatest progress was made 3 years after the operation,but the accuracy still did not reach 100％.There was no significantly correlation with im-plantation age(P＞0.05).Conclusion The accuracy of stops production in the CI group was lower than that in the NH group.With the increase of hearing and physiological age,stops production ability improved gradually and de-veloped rapidly within 3 years after the operation.

Objective To investigate the effect of local histopathological changes of thyroid nodules after ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy(US-FNBA)on laparoscopic thyroid surgery.Methods The clinical data of 120 patients with thyroid malignant tumors admitted to Xiaogan Hospital of Wuhan University of Science and Technology from January 2020 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed,and according to whether received US-FNAB before surgery they were divided into the observation group(with US-FNAB)and the control group(without US-FNAB),with 60 cases in each group.The operation time,change of parathyroid hormone(ΔPTH)before and after surgery,change of serum Ca2+concentration(serum ΔCa2+)before and after surgery,drainage volume 24 hours after surgery and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.According to fine needle aspiration-to-surgery(FTS),the patients in the observation group were further divided into the group A(FTS≤3 days)and the group B(FTS>3 days),and the effect of US-FNAB on laparoscopic thyroid surgery was explored combined with the pathological changes of the thyroid puncture capsule of the two groups.Results The operation time of the observation group was longer than that of the control group(P<0.05),and there was no significant difference in the drainage volume 24 hours after surgery,ΔPTH,serum ΔCa2+,or proportions of facial or limb numbness,hypoparathyroidism,recurrent laryngeal nerve integrity,and hypocalcemia between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the operation time,ΔPTH,serum ΔCa2+,drainage volume 24 hours after surgery,hypocalcemia,recurrent laryngeal nerve integrity or hypothyroidism between the group A and group B(P>0.05).The proportion of patients with facial or limb numbness after surgery in the group A was significantly lower than that in the group B(P<0.05).Conclusion Preoperative US-FNAB for thyroid nodules may prolong the operation time in patients undergoing laparoscopic thyroid surgery,and surgical treatment in early aspiration can help decrease this effect and reduce the incidences of postoperative hypocalcemia and hypothyroidism.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and feasibility of double-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) combined with transcystic common bile duct (CBD) exploration using ultrafine choledochoscopy on patients with gallbladder stones and common bile duct stones.Methods:Clinical data of 35 patients undergoing double-port LC combined with transcystic CBD exploration using ultrafine choledochoscopy in Anhui No.2 Provincial People’s Hospital from December 2021 to June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed, including 8 males and 27 females, aged (45.8±18.1) years. In all patients, the diameter of the gallbladder duct was greater than 3 mm, the maximum diameter of the stones was less than 10 mm, and the number of stones was less than 5, and the gallbladder ducts were normal. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) was used to measure the diameter of CBD, the number and the maximum diameter of stones. The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative anal exhaust time, postoperative hospital stay and complications (including abdominal infection, biliary tract infection, bile leakage, bleeding, etc.) of all patients were analyzed. The incidence of bile duct stenosis, residual stone or stone recurrence were followed up by telephone or outpatient review.Results:MRCP measurement indicated that the common bile duct diameter of patients was (8.1±1.3) mm. Single CBD stone occurred in 27 cases (77.1%, 27/35), and the mean maximum diameter of CBD stones was (3.9±1.3) mm. All patients successfully underwent the procedure. The operative time was (80.1±10.9) min, the intraoperative blood loss was (25.5±10.2) ml, the recovery time of postoperative anal exhaust was (17.3±4.7) h, and the postoperative hospital stay was (2.5±0.6) d. There were no complications such as abdominal and biliary tract infection, bile leakage and bleeding. All patients were followed up for 1-30 months, with a median follow-up time of 12 months. No biliary stricture, residual stones or recurrence occured during the follow-ups.Conclusion:In selected cases, double-port LC combined with transcystic CBD exploration using ultrafine choledochoscopy could be safe and feasible, with less trauma, quick recovery and short operative time.

Objective To construct a prediction model for targeted biopsy(TB)of the prostate based on multiparameter magnetic resonance imaging(mp-MRI)and prostate-specific antigen density(PSAD)to predict the outcomes TB in patients with a score of 4-5 on the Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System(PI-RADS).Methods Clinical data of 669 patients with PI-RADS 4-5 receiving transperineal TB in our hospital during Jan.2022 and Dec.2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The data were divided into the training set and validation set with a ratio of 2∶1.Independent predictors of TB results were identified with univariate and multivariate logistic regression to construct a formula for the prediction model.A prediction model was subsequently constructed and validated using the validation set to assess its efficacy and predictive performance with the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC).The relative importance of each independent predictor in the formula was analyzed.Results Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that age,total number of lesions,histological location,PI-RADS score and PSAD were significantly associated with the TB outcomes(P＜0.05)and could be used as independent predictors,with PI-RADS score and PSAD making the highest contribution to outcome prediction,accounting for 27.59％and 37.58％,respectively.The training set had an AUC of 0.840(95％CI:0.800-0.881),which was more predictive than other single predictors,and the high-risk group based on the optimal threshold of 0.833 increased the positive biopsy rate from 79.3％to 94.4％.The validation set had an AUC of 0.865(95％CI:0.810-0.920),and the high-risk group based on the optimal threshold of 0.594 increased the positive biopsy rate from 80.0％to 96.2％.Conclusion The prediction model has good predictive ability for lesions with PI-RADS 4-5,which can significantly improve the positive detection rate and reduce a large number of unnecessary systematic puncture.
