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 By comparing the changes in public health emergency response capacity and epidemic response effect in Yangzhou before and after the outbreak of COVID-19, we can provide a reference for epidemic prevention and control work in the post-COVID-19 era. Methods The three periods of 2018-2019, 2020-2022, and 2023 were selected to correspond to the pre-COVID-19 period, the middle period, and the post-COVID-19 period, respectively, and the epidemic period of COVID-19 was divided into two sub-dimensions: the early epidemic period of 2020 and the high-intensity epidemic period of 2021-2022. Through questionnaire surveys and descriptive epidemiology, a comprehensive comparison was conducted on all aspects of emergency response capacity and the effectiveness of epidemic management. Results Since the outbreak of COVID-19, the Yangzhou emergency response system has set up a joint control and prevention network of cities, counties, and districts, as well as special emergency departments in all regions; optimized the personnel allocation and professional disposal teams; improved the number, mode, and coverage of emergency plans, emergency drills, and training; optimized emergency material reserve and dispatch; and standardized institutional construction. The overall incidence of influenza outbreaks decreased from 2.71% to 1.03% and 1.50%; During the different epidemic periods of COVID-19, the average duration of influenza outbreaks decreased continuously, which was 16.70, 11.34, and 9.88 days, respectively. The proportion of influenza outbreaks that met the criteria for a public health emergency controlled within an average incubation period increased from 18.75% in the pre-COVID-19 period to 75.00% in the post-COVID-19 period. Conclusion The public health emergency response capacity of Yangzhou city has been improved after the COVID-19 epidemic, but there are still shortcomings in the emergency management mechanism, the function of emergency departments, the multi-trigger monitoring warning system, the quantity and quality of professionals, and the multi-department coordination mechanism. In particular, the capacity of county-level emergency response teams needs to be continuously strengthened, which can be achieved by gradually improving emergency management systems and monitoring warning systems, further strengthening talent training, continuously promoting the integration of medical and prevention, and focusing on practical effects.

ObjectiveThe U6 promoter is an essential element for driving sgRNA expression in the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat sequences/CRISPR-associated protein 9(CRISPR/Cas9)gene editing system in dicotyledonous plants. Endogenous U6 promoters typically exhibit higher transcriptional activity, which can significantly improve gene editing efficiency. This study aims to identify endogenous U6 promoters in Artemisia annua to optimize its CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing system, which holds significant importance for its molecular breeding. MethodsOn the basis of the highly conserved U6 snRNA sequences in Arabidopsis thaliana, endogenous U6 promoters were screened in the A. annua genome. Expression vectors were constructed with candidate AaU6 promoter driving the firefly luciferase (LUC) reporter gene, and then transiently transformed into Nicotiana benthamiana. Transcriptional activities of the promoters were measured and compared by in vivo imaging and the Dual Luciferase Reporter assay. ResultsEight endogenous U6 promoters were successfully cloned from A. annua. Sequences alignment revealed that all these promoters contained the two conserved cis-acting elements, upstream sequence element (USE) and TATA-box, which affected their transcriptional activity. Dual-luciferase activity assays indicated that the transcriptional activities of AaU6-3, AaU6-1, and AaU6-5 were significantly higher than that of the Arabidopsis AtU6-26 promoter, with AaU6-3 exhibiting the highest activity. ConclusionThis study identified three endogenous AaU6 promoters with high transcriptional activity in A. annua, providing key functional elements for establishing an efficient gene editing system in A. annua. These findings will contribute to advancing precision molecular breeding and high-quality germplasm innovation in A. annua.

Objective:To investigate the impact of postoperative complications on adverse outcomes following curative-intent resection for gallbladder cancer (GBC).Methods:The multi-center real-world study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 629 patients with GBC, who were admitted to 14 medical centers including The First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from the national multicenter database of Biliary Surgery Group of Elite Group of Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery, from April 2020 to April 2024 were collected. There were 225 males and 404 females, aged (64±10)years. Patients underwent open curative-intent resection for GBC. Observation indicators: (1)surgery, postoperative complica-tions and adverse outcomes; (2) analysis of risk factors affecting postoperative adverse outcomes in patients and population attributable fraction (PAF). Missing data in predictor variables were addressed using multiple imputation with chained equations, while cases with missing outcome variables were addressed using the "multiple imputation then deletion (MID)" strategy. The severity of multicollinearity among independent variables was assessed using the variance inflation factor (VIF) test. Multivariable possion regression models with log link and robust error variance were construc-ted incorporating restricted cubic splines (3 knots) to address nonlinear relationships in continuous variables, calculating adjusted relative risk ( RR) with corresponding 95% confidence interval ( CI). Adjusted PAF was calculated for each imputed dataset using the AF package of R software, with subsequent pooling performed according to Rubin's rules. Results:(1) Surgery, postoperative complications and adverse outcomes. All 629 patients underwent curative-intent resection for GBC, of which 143 cases had postoperative complications, including 68 cases of intra-abdominal ascites, 39 cases of pulmonary infection, 21 cases of bile leakage, 12 cases of intra-abdominal hemorrhage, 11 cases of liver failure, 10 cases of pan-creatic fistula, 10 cases of wound infection, 10 cases of gastroparesis, 7 cases of cholangitis, 7 cases of sepsis. The same patient could have more than one kind of complication. Of 629 patients, there were 19 cases of postoperative 90-day death and 11 cases of missing data, 42 cases with post-operative 90-day reoperation and 7 cases with missing data, 44 cases with postoperative 90-day readmission and 3 cases with missing data, 155 cases with prolonged postoperative hospital stay and 3 cases with missing data. (2) Analysis of risk factors affecting the postoperative adverse outcomes in patients and PAF. Results of multivariate analysis showed that pulmonary infection and liver failure were independent risk factors for postoperative 90-day mortality ( RR=3.74, 12.15, 95% CI as 1.18-11.83, 1.98-74.48, P<0.05). Pulmonary infection demons-trated the highest PAF as 4.61% (95% CI as 3.94%-5.28%, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites, pulmonary infection, bile leakage, and intra-abdominal hemorrhage were independent risk factors for post-operative 90-day reoperation ( RR=4.80, 3.62, 3.46, 4.99, 95% CI as 2.49-9.26, 1.42-9.21, 1.34-8.92, 1.55-16.06, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites demonstrated the highest PAF as 8.65% (95% CI as 8.22%-9.08%, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites, bile leakage, and liver failure were independent risk factors for postoperative 90-day readmission ( RR=6.20, 3.33, 14.33, 95% CI as 3.21-11.95, 1.33-8.35, 3.72-55.28, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites demonstrated the highest PAF as 9.11% (95% CI as 8.85%-9.37%, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites, pulmonary infection, bile leakage, liver failure, and wound infection were independent risk factors for prolonged postoperative hospital stay ( RR=2.29, 2.21, 2.26, 2.14, 3.35, 95% CI as 1.63-3.23, 1.41-3.46, 1.32-3.86, 1.11-4.13, 1.70-6.60, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites demonstrated the highest PAF as 6.03% (95% CI as 5.71%-6.35%, P<0.05). Conclusion:Pulmonary infection is the most significant risk factor for postoperative 90-day mortality after curative-intent resection for GBC, while intra-abdominal ascites is the most significant risk factor for postoperative 90-day reoperation, postoperative 90-day readmission, and prolonged postoperative hospital stay.

Objective:To evaluate the factors influencing test failure after resampling in non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) and to explore its impact on pregnancy outcomes.Methods:The information of pregnant women who failed to undergo NIPT for the first time and resampled for testing in Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2018 to January 2022 were collected and retrospectively analyzed. According to the results of resampled NIPT, the pregnant women were divided into the failure group (170 cases) and the success group(485 cases), and the general clinical data and pregnancy outcomes of the two groups were compared.Results:(1) A total of 88 928 pregnant women underwent NIPT in Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital during the study period, of which 1 299 (1.461%, 1 299/88 928) failed in the first NIPT. Among the 1 299 pregnant women who failed in the first NIPT, 720 were resampled for testing. Finally, 655 pregnant women who met the inclusion criteria and had complete clinical information and perinatal outcomes were collected. The success rate of resampling was 74.0% (485/655). Compared with the success group, the pregnant women in the failure group had a later gestational age at resampling, a higher pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and a higher fetal fraction, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.001). (2) Among the 485 pregnant women in the success group, 130 cases (26.8%, 130/485) were detected with chromosome aneuploidy. Among the 170 pregnant women in the failure group, 8 cases had abnormal amniocentesis, 2 cases had abnormal maternal serum screening of aneuploidy in the second trimester, 3 cases had abnormal ultrasound anomaly removal, and 157 cases had no abnormality. (3) The incidence of fetal or neonatal malformation in the failure group was significantly higher than that in the success group [11.2% (19/170) vs 5.8% (28/485), P=0.019], but after adjusting for age and pre-pregnancy BMI, fetal or neonatal malformation was not associated with the success of resampling ( RR=0.675, 95% CI: 0.346-1.319; P=0.250). The incidences of gestational diabetes mellitus and hypertensive disorders in pregnancy in the failure group were significantly higher than those in the success group (all P<0.05), but after adjusting for age and pre-pregnancy BMI, only the incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus in the failure group was higher ( RR=0.630, 95% CI: 0.426-0.932; P=0.021). Conclusions:For pregnant women who failed the initial NIPT, the success of the resampling test is associated with pre-pregnancy BMI and the gestational week at the time of resampling. Those who failed the resampling test are more likely to develop gestational diabetes mellitus. When providing genetic counseling for pregnant women who failed the initial NIPT, it is important to consider the successful rate of resampling testing. The risk of chromosomal abnormalities should be comprehensively considered to develop further screening strategies.

Objective:To analyze the spatiotemporal correlation between the surveillance data of influenza in students reported by medical institutions and school absenteeism due to illness, and evaluate the application of Bayesian Structural Time Series model (BSTS) in the prediction of school influenza epidemic.Methods:A total of 13 schools in Dapeng new district of Shenzhen were selected. The incidence data of influenza in schools in Shenzhen from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2019 were collected from China Disease Control and Prevention Information System and the illness related school absentence data during this period were collected from Shenzhen Student Health Surveillance System, and the spatiotemporal correlation between the data from two systems was analyzed and compared. BSTS was used to make long-term predictions of the monthly incidence of influenza in students in 2019 and short-term predictions of the weekly incidence of influenza in week 1-8 and week 45-52 of 2019 by using the data from two systems.Results:There was a temporal correlation between the data from China Disease Control and Prevention Information System and the data from Shenzhen Student Health Surveillance System ( r=0.93, P<0.001), and the lag of the former one was 1 day ( r=0.73, P<0.001). Influenza outbreaks were randomly distributed in different schools in Shenzhen, and there was no spatial correlation. The root mean square error ( RMSE) and mean absolute error ( MAE) were 0.35 and 0.28, respectively, in the long-term prediction, and the RMSE was 0.33 and 0.34, and the MAE was 0.26 and 0.28, respectively, in the short-term predictions of week 1-8 and week 45-52 of 2019, respectively, showing good prediction accuracy and fitting effect. Conclusion:By analyzing the data from China Disease Control and Prevention Information System and Shenzhen Student Health Surveillance System with BSTS, the dynamics of the school influenza epidemic can be accurately predicted, and effective technical support can be provided for the early warning and prevention and control of influenza epidemic.
