The development and validation of clinical prediction models based on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning methods have become increasingly widespread. However, the prediction model bias risk and applicability evaluation tool developed in 2019 (i.e., PROBAST-2019) has shown significant limitations. Therefore, an expanded and updated version of the PROBAST-2019 tool was released in 2025, known as the PROBAST+AI tool. The tool is divided into two parts including model development and model evaluation. It aims to comprehensively and systematically evaluate potential methodological quality issues in model development, bias risks in model evaluation, and the applicability of models, regardless of the modeling method used. This paper provides a systematic interpretation of the PROBAST+AI tool's items and case analyses, with the aim of guiding and assisting researchers engaged in related studies and promoting the high-quality development of clinical predictive model research.

Objective To study the distribution characteristics of TCM constitutions in the middle-aged and elderly Mongolian population undergoing physical examinations in Inner Mongolia;To analyze the correlation with related risk factors.Methods Health information and related risk factors(including BMI index,lifestyle habits,dietary habits and exercise status)of middle-aged and elderly Mongolian people who visited the physical examination departments of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital and Tongliao City Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital from March 2024 to April 2024 were collected.A total of 213 Mongolian people were surveyed,including 65 people who have lived in Hohhot for more than 2 years and 148 people who have lived in Tongliao for more than 2 years.Through investigation,research and analysis,the distribution characteristics of TCM constitutions in the population and its correlation with related risk factors were observed.Results Constitution distribution:101 people(47.41%)had a moderate constitution.Among the biased constitutions,the phlegm dampness constitution had the highest number of people(64 people,30.05%),with the blood deficiency constitution having the lowest number of people(2 people,0.94%).In the investigation of related risk factors,there was a significant correlation(P<0.01)between phlegm dampness and dietary habits and reduced exercise volume.Moreover,individuals with this constitution tend to have good sleep,reduced physical activity,faster eating and a diet primarily consisting of high-calorie foods(P<0.05).Conclusion The TCM constitution of the Mongolian population in Inner Mongolia is mostly composed of moderate constitution,while the biased constitution is mostly composed of phlegm dampness constitution,which is mainly related to dietary habits and reduced exercise volume.

Objective:To elucidate the primary elements pertaining to the perception of relapse risk and to in-vestigate the characteristics and alterations of perception of the risk of recurrence in patients with schizophrenia.Methods:By using the method of phenomenological study,semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted among schizophrenic patients with first onset,first recurrence and multiple recurrences.Twenty-three 23 outpatient and inpatient cases that met the criteria of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fifth Edition(DSM-5)were included,and all patients had PANSS scores below 60.The interview data were collated and analyzed according to Colaizzi analysis.Results:The perception of recurrence risk in patients with schizophrenia en-compassed 4 major themes and 11 sub-themes,namely susceptibility(limited overall understanding,transition from optimism to objectivity),detection of early warning symptoms(dynamic escalation,assistance from family mem-bers in identification),understanding risk factors(lack of understanding,the relationship between psychosocial fac-tors and relapse,dynamic understanding of medication-relapse relationship),and apprehension of the consequences of recurrence(care burden and financial constraints,impaired social functioning and maladjustment,impact on pub-lic safety,personal health risks).Conclusion:The content of risk perception of recurrence in patients with schizo-phrenia is relatively substantial.The overall level of risk perception of recurrence in patients with schizophrenia is low.

As an essential trace element in living organisms, copper is actively involved in normal physiological processes in various systems and is maintained at low level to achieve copper homeostasis. Copper homeostasis, once being disrupted, would induce cell death, and this new form of cell death is known as copper death. In recent years, copper death has been increasingly recognized as an important factor mediating the onset and progression of central nervous system (CNS) diseases. Therefore, we review the pathogenic mechanism of copper death in CNS diseases, as well as its therapeutic strategies so as to deepen the understanding of researchers.

Objective:To investigate the lung protective effect of driving pressure-guided lung protective ventilation strategy (LPVS) combined with pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV) in elderly patients undergoing thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer.Methods:One hundred elderly patients scheduled for thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer from April 2021 to April 2022 in the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University were selected. Patients were aged 60-80 years old and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification Ⅰ-Ⅱ. All patients were divided into 4 groups by using the random number table method, with 25 cases in each group. Group A received volume-controlled ventilation (VCV) + 5 cm H 2O (1 cm H 2O = 0.098 kPa) PEEP, group B received PCV+5 cm H 2O PEEP, group C received VCV+driving pressure-guided individualized PEEP, and group D received PCV+driving pressure-guided individualized PEEP. The arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO 2) was recorded before one-lung ventilation (OLV) (T 0), 30 min after OLV (T 1) and 60 min after OLV (T 2). The serum concentrations of neutrophil elastase (NE) in radial artery blood samples of patients were measured at T 0 and 10 min after the end of OLV (T 3). The occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPC) within 5 d after surgery was recorded. Results:The PaO 2 of group A and B at T 1 [(135±50), (146±51) mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa)] and T 2 [(137±46), (143±47) mmHg] were lower than those of group C and group D at T 1 [(168±27), (190±30) mmHg] and T 2 [(180±30), (183±24) mmHg] (all P < 0.05). The incidence of PPC within 5 d after surgery in group A was higher than that in group D [36% (9/25) vs. 4% (1/25)] ( P = 0.005). The concentration of NE at T 3 in group A [(202.8±9.7) ng/ml] was lower than that in group B, C and D [(182.5±12.0), (180.0±10.3), (160.6±13.0) ng/ml] ( P < 0.05). Conclusions:During OLV, driving pressure-guided LPVS combined with PCV can not only improve oxygenation, but also show obvious advantages in reducing inflammatory response. It is a safe and effective intraoperative ventilation strategy for elderly patients undergoing thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer.

Objective:To explore the surgical method and therapeutic effect of repairing soft tissue defect of digit-tip with single subcutaneous pedicle V-Y advancing flap combined with skin grafting.Methods:From August 2013 to December 2020, 25 soft tissue defects of digit-tip were repaired by a single subcutaneous pedicle V-Y advancing flap combined with pedicle skin grafting. The area of the defects was 0.8 cm× 0.8 cm to 1.6 cm× 1.4 cm. The flaps were harvested from palm or lateral side of the wound and the area of flap was 0.5 cm×1.0 cm to 0.8 cm×2.5 cm. In order to make the flap transfer to a further distance, the subcutaneous fibre connection of the flap was cut-off during the operation. At the same time, cut off 1 side of subcutaneous pedicle. Finally, the advanced distance of the flap reached 0.5-1.2 cm. After the flap harvested, the medium thickness skin was removed for graft to close the donor site from the wrist striations. After the surgery, follow-up visits were conducted regularly by outpatient clinic, or via telephone or WeChat review or by home visit. Throughout the follow-up, the flap appearance, sensation and recovery of the function of digital joint were observed, together with the patient satisfaction. Results:After the surgery, the postoperative follow-up lasted for 4 months to 8 years. All 25 flaps and skin grafts were survived in first stage wound healing. The flaps and skin grafting areas had excellent texture. The fingerprint had been reconstructed with good appearance. The TPD was 4-9 mm, the functions of digital joint recovered well, and there was no complain about a discomfort at the donor site. According to the evaluation standard of Michigan hand function questionnaire, all 25 patients were very satisfied with the overall appearance and function of the hand. According to Total Angle of Motion (TAM) evaluation standard, finger mobility was excellent in all 25 patients.Conclusion:Subcutaneous V-Y advancing flap combined with skin grafting is an ideal method for repairing soft tissue defect of digit-tip. The surgery characterises a simple flap cutting, less traumatic damage, long advancing distance of flap and good repair effect.

Objective:To study the anti-motion sickness effect of atrial natriuretic peptide（ANP）through establishing two types of motion sickness rat models by giving rotational stimulation or intraperitoneal arginine vasopressin（AVP）injection.Methods:Normal Sprague-Dawley rats were rotated 120 min to induce motion sickness. The behavioural changes in their ingestion of 0.15% saccharin sodium solution（SSS）and consumption of kaolin were measured；and the susceptibilities of the rats to motion sickness were thus determined. The behavioural changes in the ingestion of 0.15% SSS after the intraperitoneal injection of AVP were also recorded. Finally，after the intraperitoneal injection of ANP，inhibitory influences on taste aversion to 0.15% SSS induced by these two methods were determined.Results:After the rotational stimulation，the rats reduced their intake of 0.15% SSS（taste aversion）or increased the intake of kaolin（pica）. The intraperitoneal injection of AVP in rats could also induce taste aversion to 0.15% SSS. However，the intraperitoneal injection of ANP effectively inhibited this conditioned taste aversion to 0.15% SSS induced either by rotational stimulation or AVP injection.Conclusion:Both rotational stimulation and intraperitoneal injection of AVP could induce motion sickness；and the intraperitoneal injection of ANP could help relieve motion sickness in rats.

Objective:To investigate the significance and regulatory mechanism of miR-142-3p and ER1 in serum and placenta of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) complicated with preeclampsia (PE) in the occurrence and development of disease.Methods:A total of 198 pregnant women admitted from Jun. 2019 to Jun. 2020 were selected as the study subjects, including 66 pregnant women with GDM (GDM group) , 60 pregnant women with GDM complicated with PE (GDM+PE group) and 72 normal pregnant women (control group) . Clinical indicators were detected and pregnancy outcome data were collected. The relative expression levels of miR-142 -3p and ER1 mRNA in serum and placental tissues of study subjects were determined by quantitative real-time polymerase link assay. The expression of ER1 protein in the placenta was detected by Western blot. Human choriotrophoblast cells HTR-8/SVneo were treated with miR-142-3p.Results:The expression levels of miR-142-3p in serum and placenta tissues in GDM+PE group were significantly lower than those in GDM+PE group and control group ( P<0.05) . The mRNA expression of ER1 in serum and placenta in GDM+PE group was significantly higher than that in GDM+PE group and control group ( P<0.05) . There was a significant negative correlation between the relative expression levels of miR-142-3p and ER1 mRNA in serum and placental tissues of pregnant women in the GDM+PE group ( r=-0.589 and -0.643, P=0.006 and < 0.001) .After transfection of HTR-8/SVneo cells with miR-142-3p, ER1 mRNA expression in the mimic group was 1.09±0.14,significantly lower than that of NC group (2.14±0.52) , inhibitor group (3.69±0.88) and inhibitor NC group (2.26±0.43) ( P<0.001) . The expression of DNMT1 in inhibitor group was significantly higher than that in the other three groups ( P<0.001) . Conclusion:In patients with GDM complicated with PE, miR-142-3p levels are reduced and ER1 levels are increased, which may be involved in the occurrence and progression of the disease.
