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.

ObjectiveTo develop a machine learning (ML)-based prediction model for neurological rehabilitation outcomes of stroke patients. MethodsA total of 420 stroke patients admitted to the Fuzhou First People's Hospital from October, 2022 to October, 2024 were enrolled as the training set. According to the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores three months after discharge, the patients were divided into prognosis group (n = 289) and poor prognosis group (n = 131). An additional 180 stroke patients hospitalized in the same hospital from November, 2024 to April, 2025 were selected as the validation set. Univariate analysis, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression, and multivariate logistic regression were performed to identify independent influencing factors for the prognosis of neurological function recovery. Using the screened independent influencing factors as feature variables, six ML models were established, including logistic regression, linear discriminant analysis, naive Bayes, support vector machine, random forest and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), confusion matrix indicators (accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score), calibration curve and decision curve analysis were adopted to evaluate the predictive efficacy, calibration degree and clinical net benefit of each model, with external validation conducted in the validation set. The SHapley Additive exPlanations framework was used to interpret the optimal model, and bar charts were applied to visualize the feature importance of the best model. ResultsAge, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, collateral circulation grading, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), lymphocyte percentage (LYMPH%), and homocysteine (Hcy) were independent risk factors for poor neurological rehabilitation prognosis (P < 0.05). For the XGBoost model, the AUC of the training and validation sets were 0.963 (95%CI 0.947 to 0.979) and 0.825 (95%CI 0.764 to 0.885), respectively, while the accuracy was 88.81% and 77.22%, the precision was 92.86% and 68.42%, the recall was 69.47% and 47.27%, and the F1-score was 79.48% and 55.91%, optimal in both calibration and clinical net benefit. The feature importance ranking for the XGBoost model from high to low was NIHSS score, age, collateral circulation grading, FPG, Hcy and LYMPH%. ConclusionThe interpretable XGBoost ML model exhibits excellent predictive efficacy and favorable clinical applicability in predicting neurological rehabilitation outcomes for stroke patients.

Objective To investigate the role and potential mechanism of secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1)⁺ macrophages in the formation of chronic renal allograft fibrosis. Methods The expression features of SPP1⁺ macrophages in renal allografts of chronic allograft dysfunction (CAD) patients were analyzed based on single-cell transcriptome data of renal tissues from patients with CAD. Transcription factor VIPER analysis and DoRothEA transcription factor activity analysis were performed on the single-cell transcriptome data. Renal tissue samples were collected from kidney transplant recipients, including the CAD group (n=5) and the non-renal allograft fibrosis group (CTL group, n=5). A mouse model of chronic allograft rejection was established and divided into the allogeneic kidney transplantation group (CAD group, n=3) and the syngeneic kidney transplantation group (SYN group, n=3). Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to detect renal tissue injury in mice, and Masson staining was used to detect renal tissue fibrosis. Immunofluorescence staining was performed to detect SPP1 expression in renal tissues of transplant recipients and mouse renal allografts. Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) were extracted from mice and subjected to hypoxia stimulation. The expression of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α and SPP1 was detected by Western blot, and SPP1 expression was detected by flow cytometry. BMDMs were transfected with HIF-1α overexpression plasmid and HIF-1α small interfering RNA (siRNA) followed by hypoxia intervention, and the expression of HIF-1α and SPP1 was detected by Western blot. Mouse aortic endothelial cells (MAECs) were co-cultured with the supernatant of BMDMs, and the expression of endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT)-related markers was detected by Western blot and immunofluorescence. Results Single-cell transcriptome analysis showed that the proportion of SPP1⁺ macrophages in renal allograft tissues was significantly higher in the CAD group than in the CTL group (P<0.05). The renal injury score and the percentage of interstitial fibrotic area in the CAD group were significantly higher than those in the SYN group (both P<0.05). Immunofluorescence staining showed that the proportion of SPP1⁺ macrophages was increased in the CAD group compared with the CTL group, and also increased in the CAD group compared with the SYN group (both P<0.05). VIPER analysis and DoRothEA transcription factor activity analysis revealed activation of the hypoxia pathway and upregulated expression of transcription factors such as HIF-1α in SPP1⁺ macrophages. SPP1 expression was elevated in BMDMs under hypoxic conditions. Knockdown of HIF-1α inhibited hypoxia-induced SPP1 protein expression, whereas overexpression of HIF-1α upregulated SPP1 protein levels. After co-culture of hypoxia-induced BMDMs with MAECs, the expression levels of EndMT-related markers were increased. Conclusions SPP1⁺ macrophages differentiated under hypoxia are significantly infiltrated in the formation of chronic renal allograft fibrosis, and may promote renal allograft fibrosis by inducing EndMT in renal vascular endothelial cells.

In recent years, China has been facing the dual challenges of declining fertility rates and births, with male reproductive health issues, especially the decline in semen quality, identified as a pivotal contributor to this phenomenon. Meanwhile, accumulating evidence indicates that air pollutants, an increasingly severe environmental problem, can damage semen quality not only directly through their biological toxicity but also indirectly by disrupting the composition of microbial communities in the gut and semen, thereby dysregulating immune function, endocrine homeostasis, and oxidative stress responses. The gut microbiota and semen microbiota, as important components of the human microecosystem, play crucial roles in maintaining reproductive health. This article comprehensively reviewed the research progress on the potential effects of air pollutants (particulate matter and gaseous pollutants), gut microbiota, and semen microbiota on semen quality. Specifically, it elucidated the mechanisms of interaction between these factors and explored how they affect male fertility.

OBJECTIVE To explore the regulatory effects of Buqi tongqiao formula on intestinal flora and immune balance in immunoglobulin A nephropathy （IgAN） rats based on the theory of “treating different diseases with the same therapy”. METHODS Male SD rats were randomly assigned to the Normal group and the modeling group. IgAN rat models were established in the modeling group by intragastric administration of bovine serum albumin， subcutaneous injection of carbon tetrachloride and castor oil mixture， and tail vein injection of lipopolysaccharide. Successfully modeled rats were then randomly divided into the model group （Model group）， Buqi tongqiao formula low-dose group （BQTQ-L group）， Buqi tongqiao formula high-dose group （BQTQ- H group）， and positive control group （BZP group）， with 15 rats in each group. BZP group received intragastric administration of benazepril hydrochloride （10 mg/kg）， while BQTQ-L and BQTQ-H groups were given Buqi tongqiao formula at doses of 9.81 and 19.62 g/kg （calculated as raw herb weight）， respectively. The Normal group and the Model group received an equal volume of normal saline intragastrically， once a day， for 8 consecutive weeks. The 24-hour urinary total protein （24 h UTP） contents were measured at weeks 8， 10， 12， 14 and 16 of the experiment. After the last administration， serum creatinine （Scr） and blood urea nitrogen （BUN） contents were detected. Renal histopathological changes and glomerular IgA immune complex deposition were examined. Additionally， alterations in gut microbiota composition， the proportions of peripheral T helper cell 17 （Th17） and regulatory T cell （Treg）， as well as the ratio of Th17 and Treg （Th17/Treg）， were analyzed across all groups. RESULTS Compared with the Model group， rats in both BQTQ-L and BQTQ-H groups showed alleviated mesangial cell hyperplasia， reduced matrix expansion， and decreased IgA immune complex deposition in the glomeruli. The 24 h UTP contents （at weeks 14 and 16 in the BQTQ-L group； at weeks 12， 14 and 16 in the BQTQ-H group）， Scr and BUN contents， IgA-positive area fluorescence intensities， relative abundances of Firmicutes， Th17 cell proportions， and Th17/Treg were significantly decreased in both BQTQ-L and BQTQ-H groups （P＜0.05）； while the Chao1， Observed species， Shannon， and Simpson （except for BQTQ-H group） indexes， the relative abundances of Bacteroidota， and the proportions of Treg were significantly increased （P＜0.05）. Differential microbiota included c_Clostridia （BQTQ-L group vs. Model group） and g_Ruminococcus （BQTQ-H group vs. Model group）， etc. CONCLUSIONS Buqi tongqiao formula may alleviate renal injury and exert a renal protective effect in IgAN rats by modulating intestinal flora homeostasis and Th17/Treg immune balance.

OBJECTIVE To conduct the epidemiological survey for 4 patients with carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRAB)that gathered to emerge in intensive care unit(ICU)within a short period so as to find out the sources of suspected CRAB.METHODS The clinical data and epidemiological history of the 4 patients with hospital-associated infection with CRAB who were treated in Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from Mar.31,2023 to Apr.7,2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The whole genome second-generation sequencing was carried out for the CRAB strains isolated from the patients and their surround-ings,and the sources of the CRAB strains were traced by means of the whole genome sequencing.RESULTS The result of the epidemiological survey showed that the case 1,2,3 and 4 were close in spatial position and had the similar drug resistance spectrum,and there might be cross infection.With the combination of the result of genome analysis,it was found that the strain from the case 1 was brought from the community and was the evolutionary branch different from other CRAB strains causing nosocomial infection;the strains from the case 2,3 and 4 had the close original sources with the CRAB strains from surroundings.CONCLUSIONS The CRAB strain from the case 1 is brought from community,which differs in the evolution branch with the strains from the cases of hospi-tal-associated CRAB infection.The transmission of CRAB leading to the incident of suspected hospital-associated infection outbreak is multiple sources.It is an effective measure to early identify the outbreak of hospital-associated infection and take targeted prevention measures so as to control the outbreak of hospital-associated infection.

Aim To investigate the effect of ACSL4 on the malignant biological behavior of esophageal cancer cells and gefitinib resistance by regulating FASN,and to explore the related mechanism.Methods Thirty-five fresh esophageal cancer tissues and adjacent nor-mal tissues,and 30 esophageal cancer tissues with ge-fitinib resistance were collected.The expressions of ACSL4 and FASN were detected by qRT-PCR and im-munohistochemistry.The expression levels of ACSL4 and FASN in human normal esophageal cells HET-1 A,esophageal cancer cell lines ECA109,EC9706,TE-1 and TE-1/GR were detected by qRT-PCR.Cells in each group were constructed by liposome transfection technique,and the drug resistance and proliferation a-bility of cells were detected by cloning and CCK-8 as-say,cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry,cell invasion ability was detected by Transwell,and EMT pathway protein expression was detected by Western blot.Results Compared with adjacent normal tis-sues,the expression of ACSL4 and FASN genes in cancer tissues increased,and there was a positive corre-lation.The expression of ACSL4 significantly increased in ECA109,EC9706 and TE-1 cells compared with HET-1 A cells.With the increase of gefitinib concen-tration,the expression of ACSL4 in TE-1 cells gradually increased,and the expression of ACSL4 in TE-1/GR cells was higher than that of TE-1.Compared with the control group and the si-NC group,the cell proliferation and invasion ability of si-ACSL4 group decreased,the number of apoptosis increased,the expression of E-Cadherin increased,and the expression of N-Cadherin,Vimentin and β-catenin decreased.The response ex-periment showed that compared with the si-ACSL4 group and the si-ACSL4+oe-NC group,the cells in the si-ACSL4+oe-FASN group increased drug resistance,increased proliferation and invasion ability,decreased apoptosis number and decreased expression of E-Cad-herin.The expressions of N-Cadherin,Vimentin and β-catenin increased.Conclusions By down-regulating the expression of FASN,ACSL4 reverses the resistance of esophageal cancer TE-1/GR cells to gefitinib and in-hibits the proliferation,invasion and accelerates apopto-sis of TE-1/GR cells,which may be related to the regu-lation of EMT signaling pathway.
