Due to traditional professional divisions, the practice of endoscopy by gastro-intestinal surgeons in China remains controversial. However, with the evolution of treatment philo-sophies, medical technology, and equipment advancements, a trend of integration between tradi-tional surgery and endoscopy is emerging. Gastrointestinal surgeons performing endoscopy can maxi-mize patient benefits, and they naturally possess advantages in conducting endoscopic procedures. It is recommended to further establish entry thresholds for surgeons to perform endoscopy, provide standardized endoscopic training for surgeons, and coordinate efforts at the administrative depart-ment. With the support of artificial intelligence, more patients can receive minimally invasive, indivi-dualized, and precise treatments.

Background and purpose:Breast cancer is a major global public health problem.Bone is the most common site of distant metastasis of breast cancer,accounting for about 70%of all metastatic cases.Bone metastasis of breast cancer can cause a series of complications,including severe pain,pathological fracture,hypercalcemia,spinal cord compression,etc.,which bring great inconvenience to patients'physical activities and affect their quality of life.Metastatic recurrence is the leading cause of death in breast cancer patients.Therefore,there is an urgent need to build a diagnostic model of bone metastasis in breast cancer to identify patients with a high risk of bone metastasis.The aim of this study was to develop a predictive model based on machine learning to predict the probability of breast cancer developing bone metastasis.Methods:Data of breast cancer patients diagnosed between 2010 and 2015 were extracted from The Surveillance,Epidemiology,and End Results(SEER)database.The variables were screened by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)regression,univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis,and statistically significant risk factors were included to build a prediction model.In this study,nine machine learning algorithms,including decision tree,elastic network,K-nearest neighbor,lightweight gradient elevator,logistic regression,neural network,random forest,support vector machine and limit gradient lifting,were used to adjust the model hyperparameters through random search and 5x cross-validation to build a breast cancer bone metastasis prediction model.The area under the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,calibration curve and decision curve were used to evaluate the model,the optimal model was obtained,and the importance of variables was analyzed based on the optimal model.Finally,a network calculator for predicting the risk of bone metastasis of breast cancer was established using the optimal model.Results:The study included 10 106 patients with breast cancer,7 073 patients in the training set,and 3 033 patients in the validation set.We found that 4 494(63.5%)patients in the training set and 1 927(63.5%)patients in the validation set developed bone metastases,respectively.Race,pathologic grade,estrogen receptor(ER)status,progesterone receptor(PR)status,human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)status,N stage,lung metastasis,radiotherapy,chemotherapy and surgery were independent predictors of bone metastasis.The training set and verification set were used to verify the model,and the limit gradient lifting algorithm was superior to other machine learning algorithms by integrating the evaluation indexes such as the area under the ROC curve,calibration curve and decision curve.Finally,we used limit gradient algorithm to build network calculator for prediction of breast cancer bone metastases(https://bcbm.shinyapps.io/DynNomapp/).Conclusion:This study developed a predictive model based on machine learning to predict the probability of bone metastases in breast cancer patients,hoping to help clinicians make more rational treatment decisions.

Objective To investigate the value of polar residual network(PResNet)model for assisting evaluation on rat myocardial infarction(MI)segment in myocardial contrast echocardiography(MCE).Methods Twenty-five male SD rats were randomly divided into MI group(n=15)and sham operation group(n=10).MI models were established in MI group through ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery using atraumatic suture,while no intervention was given to those in sham operation group after thoracotomy.MCE images of both basal and papillary muscle levels on the short axis section of left ventricles were acquired after 1 week,which were assessed independently by 2 junior and 2 senior ultrasound physicians.The evaluating efficacy of MI segment,the mean interpretation time and the consistency were compared whether under the assistance of PResNet model or not.Results No significant difference of efficacy of evaluation on MI segment was found for senior physicians with or without assistance of PResNet model(both P＞0.05).Under the assistance of PResNet model,the efficacy of junior physicians for diagnosing MI segment was significantly improved compared with that without the assistance of PResNet model(both P＜0.01),and was comparable to that of senior physicians.Under the assistance of PResNet model,the mean interpretation time of each physician was significantly shorter than that without assistance(all P＜0.001),and the consistency between junior physicians and among junior and senior physicians were both moderate(Kappa=0.692,0.542),which became better under the assistance(Kappa=0.763,0.749).Conclusion PResNet could improve the efficacy of junior physicians for evaluation on rat MI segment in MCE images,shorten interpretation time with different aptitudes,also improve the consistency to some extent.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Clinical practice guideline adaptation (hereinafter referred to as "guideline adaptation") is the consolidation and revision of existing high-quality guidelines so that the recommendations are better suited to the specific needs of different regions, thereby guiding optimal clinical practice. Currently, the guideline adaptations is increasing in number internationally, but their reporting quality still needs to be improved. In 2022, the RIGHT-Ad@pt guideline adaptation reporting checklist was released. It provides a detailed description of the guideline adaptation process and reporting content, which will significantly enhance the rigor, transparency, and standardization of guideline adaptations. This paper interprets and analyzes the 34 items on the checklist, with the aim of providing reference for guideline adapters to standardize the reporting process.

Liver transplantation, the only effective treatment for end stage liver disease, is characterized by complicated surgery, long surgery time, and high trauma. Patients may experience a variety of difficulties following surgery, including infection, abdominal bleeding and rejection, all of which directly affect the quality of rehabilitation. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS), a novel perioperative management strategy, can effectively promote postoperative recovery of patients and has been extensively implemented in various fields of surgery. However, there are no scientific and universal ERAS protocols in the fields of liver transplantation in China. The first Consensus Recommendations of Enhanced Recovery for Liver Transplantation was issued by the International Liver Transplantation Society in December 2022, offering recommendations about ERAS strategies for liver transplantation recipients who receive deceased and living organ donations, and for living donors of liver transplantation. This paper provides a detailed interpretation of the key points to offer a practical reference for domestic liver transplantation perioperative ERAS management.

Objective To explore the effects of three different patient-controlled analgesia protocols on sedation and analgesia in patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery for lung cancer.Methods Ninety-three patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery for lung cancer in our hospital from November 2022 to April 2023 were selected,and randomly assigned into three groups according to different postoperative analgesic protocols.Group P(n=30)was given patient-controlled intravenous analgesia,group T(n=31)received patient-controlled intravenous analgesia combined with thoracic paravertebral block,while group S(n=32)received patient-controlled intravenous analgesia combined with serratus intercostal plane block.Then the Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)score,Ramsay sedation scores,the press times of analgesic pump,the use of sedative drugs and adverse effects were compared among all three groups,and the sensory block plane,performance time,onset time and duration of the block were compared between group T and S.Results VAS scores in the resting state at postoperative 2 h,24 h and 48 h were(3.09±0.69),(2.83±0.59)and(2.07±0.51)in group P,which were higher than group T[(1.22±0.33),(2.51±0.54)and(1.57±0.45)]and group S[(1.01±0.30),(2.23±0.51)and(1.22±0.25)],group T was higher than group S.VAS scores in the coughing state at postoperative 2 h,24 h and 48 h were(3.63±0.55),(3.24±0.67)and(2.61±0.51)in group P,which were higher than the group T[(1.45±0.29),(2.71±0.56)and(2.33±0.53)]and group S[(1.14±0.28),(2.40±0.57)and(2.03±0.52)],group T was higher than group S.VAS scores in the resting and coughing states at postoperative 2 h,24 h and 48 h yielded statistical difference among three groups(all P＜0.05).Ramsay sedation scores at postoperative 2 h,24 h and 48 h were(2.21±0.51),(2.34±0.56)and(2.31±0.55)in group P,(2.23±0.53),(2.35±0.55)and(2.33±0.54)in group T and(2.22±0.52),(2.36±0.57)and(2.32±0.55)in group S,with no statistical difference(all P＞0.05).The press times of analgesic pump at postoperative 24 h and 48 h were(10.18±2.42)and(14.51±3.20)in group P,which were higher than the group T[(3.32±0.79)and(6.84±1.62)]and group S[(1.17±0.28)and(2.63±0.62)],group T was higher than group S,with statistical difference(all P＜0.05).The additional dose of sufentanil and the total amount of sufentanil used in postoperative period were(8.05±1.99)μg and(71.53±6.91)μg in group P,which were more than the group T[(3.77±0.93)pg and(65.82±5.77)μg]and the group S[(2.23±0.55)μg and(47.54±4.56)μg],group T was higher than group S,with statistical difference(all P＜0.05).Group S had shorter performance time[(5.32±1.77)min]and longer block duration time[(12.51±2.14)h]than those of group T[(12.41±3.42)min and(10.31±2.01)h],with statistical difference(all P＜0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions was 6.25％in group S,which was lower than the group P(30.00％,P＜0.05),and no statistical difference was reported among three groups in the occurrence rate of comparisons(all P＞0.05).Conclusion The sedation effects of the three different patient-controlled analgesia protocols are comparable,but patient-controlled intravenous analgesia combined with serratus intercostal plane block provides better postoperative analgesia for patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery for lung cancer,which has less analgesic pump presses and lower dose of postoperative analgesic drugs used,and fewer adverse effects.

Objective:To observe any effect of tendon manipulation on the joint pain, joint motion and gait of persons with knee osteoarthritis (KOA).Methods:Sixty-one KOA patients were randomly divided into an observation group ( n=31) and a control group ( n=30). Both groups received ultrasonic physiotherapy and exercise trai-ning (including quadriceps femoris training and heel raising training), while the observation group was additionally provided with daily tendon manipulation, five times a week for 3 weeks. Before and after the treatment, knee pain (using a visual analog scale (VAS)), motor function (using the Western Ontario and McMaster University (WOMAC) osteoarthritis index scale), step length, gait speed and the double support phase ratio were evaluated in both groups using three-dimensional gait analysis equipment. Results:After the treatment the average VAS scores, as well as the joint pain, stiffness and dysfunction and the total WOMAC scores of both groups had decreased significantly. There was significant improvement in the average stride length, walking speed and the proportion of double support phase among the observation group, and the latter two measurements had also improved significantly in the control group. After the intervention, the average pain, WOMAC scores and gait descriptors of the observation group were significantly superior to the control group′s results.Conclusion:Tendon manipulation can usefully supplement routine rehabilitation in the treatment of KOA, improving walking efficiency and thus life quality.

【Objective】 To detect and analyze the infection status of HBsAg non-reactive /HBV DNA reactive blood donors by individual donor-NAT (ID-NAT) and chemiluminescence technology, and to explore the feasibility and potential risks of reentry. 【Methods】 The blood screening results of blood donors in Wuhu from January 2018 to October 2021 were queried by blood station information management software. The blood donation information of all HBsAg non-reactive /HBV DNA reactive blood donors was collected and then recalled by telephone. After informed consent, samples were taken for HBV DNA nucleic acid single test, enzyme-linked immunoassay for HBsAg, chemiluminescence assay for HBV seromarkers(including HBsAg, anti-HBs, HBeAg, anti-HBe and anti-HBc), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) test. All the results were statistically analyzed. 【Results】 From January 2018 to October 2021, there were 142 051 donations, and the positive rate of sole HBV DNA was 0.06% (91/142 051), and 33 people (37 person-times) were successfully followed up. The yield rates of HBsAg, anti-HBs and anti-HBc were 6.06% (2/33), 39.39% (13/33) and 96.97% (32/33), respectively; None HBeAg was yielded. After two times of ID-NAT, 8 patients remained non-reactive to both systems, with a negative conversion rate of 24.24% (8/33). Meanwhile, 25 patients were at least once reactive to ID-NAT, and 23 of them were occult HBV infection with serologically reactivity. There were 2(6.25%) patients with HBsAg positive conversion and HBV DNA persistent reactivity, which were window period infection. One person was confirmed as false reactivity (no HBV infection) as he remained unreactive to both repeated ID-NAT and serological tests. 【Conclusion】 Chemiluminescence assay is more sensitive than ELISA in detecting HBV serum markers, which is beneficial to early detection of HBV samples in window period. The yielding rate of anti-HBc among HBsAg non-reactive/HBV DNA reactive blood donors detected by blood screening in this region is very high, and most of them are occulting infection, so the ID-NAT should be no less than 2 times in the reentry strategy.

Objective An X-shaped cushioning insole with variable stiffness was designed to explore its effects on plantar pressure and internal stress of diabetic patients with toe amputation. Methods Based on CT images, the feet-calf finite element model of diabetic patients with toe amputation was established, and the insole was divided into different areas according to distribution characteristics of the planter pressure. The three-dimensional (3D) printed cushioning insole with an X-shaped sandwich structure was designed. The modulus of the sandwichstructure was changed by changing thickness of the sandwich structure panel. For simulation analysis, the divided area was filled with the X-shaped sandwich structure with different modulus. Results The peak plantar pressure of diabetic patients with toe amputation was in calcaneal region, and the combined insoles with 1. 2 mpanel thickness in toe area, 1. 4 mm panel thickness in metatarsal area, 2. 0 mm panel thickness in middle area and 1. 6 mm panel thickness in heel area had the best decompression effect. Compared with bare feet, the peak pressure in heel area of the insole, the peak pressure in phalangeal head area and the stress in plantar softissues were reduced by 40. 18% , 31. 7% , and 50. 44% , respectively. Conclusions The 3D printed insoles with variable stiffness can effectively reduce surface pressure and internal stress of the sole and reduce probability of the 2nd toe amputation
