Digital and intelligent technologies serve as the core engine driving the inheritance of the essence and the innovation while upholding the fundamentals of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM). Currently, the digital and intelligent transformation of TCM has undergone four developmental stages, exhibiting inherent characteristics such as long-term inevitability, objective standardization, and ecological evolution. By introducing quantitative metrics, digital and intelligent technologies have achieved breakthroughs in TCM knowledge inheritance and innovation, clinical diagnosis and treatment, and herbal medicine supply. The practical applicability of methodological innovations has been empirically validated, though significant disparities exist in technological adaptability and application depth across different fields. Overall, the digital and intelligent transformation of TCM remains in its nascent stage, grappling with multiple structural challenges:weak data foundations, inadequate technological adaptability, incomplete institutional frameworks, shortages of multidisciplinary talent, lagging policies and regulations, and urban-rural digital divide. In order to foster sustainable development and modernization of TCM, this paper establishes a six-dimensional collaborative governance framework of encompassing data, technology, organization, institutions, environment and ethics, which is rooted in data governance and digital governance theories. Future efforts should center on standardization, integration, and ecosystem development to build a data and technology foundation. Focus should be placed on deepening innovation and application of key TCM-specific technologies, while simultaneously strengthening interdisciplinary talent cultivation, improving institutional mechanisms and policy frameworks, and increasing support for rural areas. By adopting a people-centered and technology-empowered approach, we can overcome developmental constraints and unleash the powerful driving force of digital and intelligent technologies for the inheritance of TCM.

Objective:To explore the epidemiological characteristics, clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, and imaging features of children with HRV-associated pneumonia, and to analyze the clinical features and risk factors associated with severe HRV pneumonia, providing references for clinical management.Methods:A single-center, retrospective, observational study was conducted, including 1 001 cases of HRV-positive children with pneumonia admitted to the Respiratory Department of the Affiliated Children′s Hospital of Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 2019 to December 2023. Among them, 584 cases (58.3%) were male and 417 cases (41.7%) were female, with an age range of 0.1 to 14.9 years, a median age of 3.42 years, and a mean age of (3.92±2.75) years. According to clinical guidelines, the cases were divided into a mild pneumonia group (855 cases, 510 males, 345 females) and a severe pneumonia group (146 cases, 73 males, 73 females). Basic information, clinical, laboratory, and imaging data were collected from the electronic medical record system. Comparisons between different age groups, diagnoses, and pneumonia severity groups were performed using the χ2 test. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors for the severity of HRV pneumonia. Results:Among the 1 001 cases of HRV-associated bronchopneumonia, 146 cases (14.6%) were severe pneumonia. The age of severe HRV pneumonia patients was significantly higher than that of the mild pneumonia group (5.2 years vs. 3.7 years, t=-6.050, P<0.01). Severe HRV pneumonia had a higher incidence in autumn and winter (60.9%). Severe HRV pneumonia was associated with higher levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), C-reactive protein (CRP), neutrophils, and creatinine (correlation coefficients 0.198, 0.334, 0.104, 0.142, P<0.01), and lower levels of albumin (correlation coefficient 0.308, P<0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that co-infection with Streptococcus pneumoniae or Mycoplasma was an independent risk factor for severe HRV pneumonia [ OR=1.611, 95% confidence interval ( CI):1.066-2.435, P<0.05; OR=3.355, 95% CI:2.062-5.458, P<0.01]. Conclusion:The infection rate of HRV is higher in preschool and school-age children. Severe HRV pneumonia is associated with increased levels of LDH, CRP, neutrophils, and creatinine, as well as decreased levels of albumin. Co-infection with Streptococcus pneumoniae or Mycoplasma may be an independent risk factor for severe HRV pneumonia. High-risk children require enhanced monitoring and early intervention to improve prognosis.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics, immunophenotypes, diagnostic criteria and differential diagnosis of atrophic kidney-like lesion (AKLL).Methods:Three cases of AKLL were collected from April 2021 to October 2023 at the Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, Changsha, Zhejiang Provincial People′s Hospital, Hangzhou and Ningbo Clinical Pathology Diagnosis Center, Ningbo, China. The clinical, morphological, and immunohistochemical characteristics were analyzed. Relevant literature was also reviewed. A targeted DNA-based next-generation sequencing (a panel of 150 genes) was performed on one of the three cases.Results:There were 1 female and 2 males, aged 30, 57, and 17 years (mean 34.6 years), respectively. The lesions were all incidentally identified during physical or imaging examination. Radiologically, they were all presented as a unilateral renal parenchymal mass. Grossly, the maximum diameters of the lesions were 1.8, 4.0, and 6.5 cm (mean 4.1 cm), respectively. The tumor cut-surfaces were sponge-like, multilocular cystic, and solid, respectively. At low magnification, the lesions were well-circumscribed, while a thick fibromuscular capsule was noted in cases 1 and 3. Cases 1 and 2 were composed of thin-walled cysts or follicular like structures of varying sizes, with the cyst wall lined by flattened and atrophic, or hobnail cells. The luminal spaces contained dense eosinophilic secretion and associated calcifications, while some cysts contained discohesive cells floating in the eosinophilic material. The tissue between the cysts showed predominantly small atrophic tubular structures. Case 3 was almost entirely composed of atrophic and collapsed tubular structures with focal cyst formation, imparting a solid sheets growth pattern under low magnification. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that the cyst lining cells and the intracystic floating cells were WT1 positive, PAX8 negative and CK7 negative, while the atrophic renal tubules were WT negative, PAX8 positive and CK7 positive. Targeted next-generation sequencing in case 1 showed no significant genetic abnormalities. All 3 patients underwent partial nephrectomy. No evidence of recurrence or metastasis was found with a follow-up of 17 to 36 months.Conclusions:AKLL is a rare and novel benign renal disease. It is easily misdiagnosed as a renal neoplasm grossly and histologically. Careful morphological observation combined with characteristic immunophenotypes can aid in its diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

Tissue resident memory T(TRM)cells are a class of memory T cells with long life span and non-lymphoid resident characteristics.TRM cells are the first line of defense against secondary infections in human.TRM cells can restrict the transmission of viruses as well as combat against viruses.Rapid evolution of severe acute respiratory syn-drome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2)and post-COVID-19 syndrome could lead to a series of symptoms such as pulmonary fi-brosis,resulting in long-term fall in quality of life.Many studies focused on enhancing the ability to cope with the mutation of SARS-CoV-2 and reducing the incidence of post-COVID-19 syndrome.The relationship between TRM cells and SARS-CoV-2 infection or therapy still remain unknown.It is significant to investigate TRM cells divergence and functions for the development of vaccines.We review the functions and residence properties of TRM cells,as well as their roles in SARS-CoV-2 infection and post-COVID-19 syndrome.In this review,we are dedicated to deepen our understanding of the immune process in SARS-CoV-2 infection and provide a new prospect for the prevention and treatment of post-COVID-19 syndrome.

Objective To investigate the early clinical efficacy of minimally invasive cardiac surgery coronary artery bypass grafting (MICS CABG) via left intercostal small incision for multivessel coronary artery disease. Methods The patients who received off-pump CABG in the Central China Fuwai Hospital of Zhengzhou University from June 2021 to June 2023 were enrolled. Patients were divided into two groups according to the operative technique used, including a traditional midline sternotomy group and a left intercostal small incision group. The clinical data of the two groups were compared. Results A total of 143 patients were enrolled, including 70 patients in the traditional midline sternotomy group and 73 patients in the left intercostal small incision group. The age of the patients in the left intercostal small incision group and the traditional midline sternotomy group was (63.8±8.0) years and (63.0±7.8) years, respectively; the proportions of males were 69.9% and 74.3%, respectively. The differences were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). All patients in the two groups successfully completed the operation, and no patients in the left intercostal small incision group were converted to thoracotomy. The patients in the left intercostal small incision group showed less postoperative drainage within postoperative 24 hours [(239.4±177.7) mL vs. (338.0±151.9) mL, P<0.001], lower perioperative blood transfusion rate [32.9% (24/73) vs. 51.4% (36/70), P=0.028], higher postoperative myoglobin level within postoperative 24 hours [366.1 (247.9, 513.0) ng/mL vs. 220.8 (147.2, 314.9) ng/mL, P<0.001], shorter intensive care unit stay [45.5 (31.5, 67.5) h vs. 68.0 (46.0, 78.5) h, P=0.001] and postoperative hospital stay [(10.8±4.0) d vs. (13.1±5.3) d, P=0.028] compared to the traditional midline sternotomy group. There was no significant difference in the incidence of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular event between the two groups [2.7% (2/73) vs. 2.9% (2/70), P=1.000]. Conclusion Compared to the full median sternotomy, MICS CABG leads to a good clinical result with smaller trauma, faster overall recovery, and less perioperative blood transfusion.
