Objective:To investigate the real experience of early postoperative kinesiophobia in school-aged children after limb frac-ture surgery.Methods:A descriptive qualitative research method was used to conduct semi-structured interviews with sixteen children with limb fractures and their families in the ward of pediatric orthopedics in a grade A tertiary hospital in Chongqing,China,and a con-tent analysis was used to summarize and extract key themes from the interview data.Results:Three main themes and ten subthemes were extracted.The theme of pain cognition and catastrophic thinking included the subthemes of children's pain perception and activ-ity restriction,parents'pain perception and catastrophic reactions,and the interactive influence of pain cognition among different indi-viduals;the theme of medical education and risk perception included the subthemes of fear and concerns about refracture,the relation-ship between personality traits,help-seeking behavior,and internal-ized anxiety,and the impact of medical education on risk percep-tion;the theme of psychosocial stress and self-motivation included the subthemes of family members'attitudes toward academic inter-ruption,children's social disruption and compensatory media use,the mutual influence of compensatory indulgence and reinforced sick role behavior,and positive reinforcement enhancing children's self-driven recovery.Conclusion:Healthcare providers should closely monitor the recovery of limb motor function in the early stage af-ter surgery in children with fractures and provide personalized medical services and rehabilitation guidance to children and their fami-lies based on the pain perception,personality traits,and rehabilitation needs of children.

Background and Aims:Body mass index(BMI),an important indicator of nutrition and health,is closely associated with postoperative complications.This study was performed to investigate the relationship between preoperative BMI and severe complications in patients undergoing liver resection for hepatolithiasis,aiming to provide preoperative guidance for clinicians,reduce the risk of postoperative complications,and ensure surgical safety and efficacy.Methods:The clinical data of 484 patients with hepatolithiasis who underwent liver resection between May 2006 and December 2022 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University and Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital were retrospectively collected.Patients were classified into low BMI group(≤18.4 kg/m2),normal BMI group(18.5-24.9 kg/m2),and high BMI group(≥25.0 kg/m2)based on preoperative BMI.Baseline characteristics,overall complications,severe complications,and other postoperative outcomes were compared between the normal BMI group and the low group as well as the high BMI group.Risk factors for severe complications after liver resection were analyzed.Results:Among the 484 patients,79(16.3％)were in the low BMI group,328(67.8％)in the normal BMI group,and 77(15.9％)in the high BMI group.The high BMI group had significantly higher ASA score,preoperative albumin level,and proportion of hypertension compared to the normal BMI group(all P＜0.05).Baseline characteristics in the low BMI group showed no significant differences compared to the normal BMI group(all P＞0.05).The incidence rates of overall complications were not significantly among the three groups(P＞0.05).However,the high BMI group had significantly higher incidence rates of severe complications(Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ),postoperative infections,liver failure,and bile leakage compared to the normal BMI group;the low BMI group had significantly higher rates of perioperative blood transfusion,postoperative infections,liver failure,and reoperation compared to the normal BMI group(all P＜0.05).Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses identified high BMI and preoperative total bilirubin ≥54 pmol/L as independent risk factors for severe complications after liver resection in patients with hepatolithiasis(both P＜0.05).Conclusion:Preoperative BMI is closely associated with the occurrence of complications after liver resection in patients with hepatolithiasis,with high BMI being an independent risk factor for severe complications.To mitigate the risk of severe complications,clinical practice should prioritize monitoring and management of individuals with high BMI and other risk factors

Objective To observe the effectiveness of biological agents for the treatment of neuro-beh?et's syndrome(NBS).Methods Databases including PubMed,Cochrane Library,Embase,Web of Science,CNKI,Wanfang,VIP,and CBM were searched for studies on biological agents for NBS.Meta-analysis was performed by Stata 16.0.Results Nine studies,comprising 140 NBS patients were included.Effect-size analysis showed that 92％of the treated patients in the analysis were responders to biological agents(95％CI:0.76-1.08).There was no significant inter-study heterogeneity(I2=0％).Conclusion Biological agents are effective treatments for NBS,especially in refractory cases,but more large-scale,high-quality controlled studies are needed to accurately assess the efficacy and safety of biologics in NBS patients.

Background and Aims:Perihilar cholangiocarcinoma(pCCA)is associated with poor prognosis.Radical resection remains the mainstay of treatment;however,high recurrence rates and limited overall survival(OS)after surgery.Metabolic syndrome(MetS)has been linked to unfavorable outcomes in various malignancies,but its impact on postoperative outcomes in pCCA is unclear.This study aimed to evaluate the influence of MetS on perioperative and long-term outcomes in patients undergoing radical resection for pCCA.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 223 patients who underwent radical resection for pCCA at the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University between January 2018 and December 2023.Patients were categorized into a MetS group(n=50)and a non-MetS group(n=173)according to diagnostic criteria.Perioperative complications,overall survival(OS),and recurrence-free survival(RFS)were compared between groups.Prognostic factors were identified using multivariate analysis.Results:No significant differences were observed between the two groups regarding median hospital stay,overall complications,or severe complications(all P＞0.05).The 1-,3-,and 5-year OS rates in the MetS group were 62.3％,22.3％,and 0,respectively,compared with 78.2％,39.5％,and 22.0％in the non-MetS group.Corresponding RFS rates were 46.2％,16.9％,and 0 in the MetS group vs.63.8％,29.6％,and 18.8％in the non-MetS group.Median OS and RFS were significantly shorter in the MetS group than in the non-MetS group(15.0 vs.27.0 months;12.0 vs.21.0 months;P=0.021 and P=0.037,respectively).Multivariate analysis identified MetS and major vascular invasion as independent predictors of OS,while MetS,jaundice,R0 resection,and major vascular invasion were independent predictors of RFS(all P＜0.05).Conclusion:MetS is significantly associated with worse long-term survival and higher recurrence risk after radical resection for pCCA.Incorporating MetS into preoperative assessment and postoperative management strategies may help improve patient outcomes.

Objective:To investigate the application value of major anatomical structure recognition model of minimally invasive liver resection based on deep learning.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The 31 surgical videos of laparoscopic left lateral sectionectomy performed in Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University from January 2019 to April 2023 were collected. Video clips containing the surgical procedure of left lateral lobe liver pedicle and left hepatic vein were screened by 2 liver surgeons. After quality control, screening and frame extraction, the major anatomical structures on the images of these clips were annotated. After pre-processing, these images were transported to the DeepLab v3+neural network framework for model training. Observation indicators: (1) video annotation and classification; (2) results of arti-ficial intelligence anatomical recognition model testing. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Video annotation and classification. A total of 4 130 frames of images were annotated in the 31 surgical videos, including 2 083 frames of annotated images for the left lateral lobe liver pedicle, 1 578 frames of annotated images for the left hepatic vein and 469 frames of annotated images for both the left lateral lobe liver pedicle and left hepatic vein. (2) Results of artificial intelligence anatomical recognition model testing. In four application scenarios (clean scene, bloodstain scene, partially obstruction by instrument scene, and small exposed area scene), the model was able to successfully recognize the left lateral lobe liver pedicle and left hepatic vein, with a recognition speed for anatomical markers >13 frames/s. When performing anatomical recognition on images with only the left lateral lobe liver pedicle, the Dice coefficient, intersection over union, accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of the model were 0.710±0.110, 0.560±0.120, 0.980±0.010, 0.640±0.030, and 0.980±0.010, respectively. The above indicators of the model were 0.670±0.180, 0.530±0.200, 0.980±0.010, 0.600±0.040, and 0.990±0.010 when performing anatomical recognition on images with only the left hepatic vein, and 0.580±0.180, 0.430±0.190, 0.980±0.010, 0.580±0.020, and 0.990±0.010 when per-forming anatomical recognition on images with both the left lateral lobe liver pedicle and left hepatic vein.Conclusion:The major anatomical structure recognition model of minimally invasive liver resection based on deep learning can be applied in identifying liver pedicle and hepatic vein.

Objective:To investigate the influence of curative-intent resection with textbook outcomes of liver surgery (TOLS) on long-term prognosis of gallbladder carcinoma (GBC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 824 patients with GBC in the national multicenter database of Biliary Surgery Group of Elite Group of Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery, who were admitted to 15 medical centers from January 2014 to January 2021, were collected. There were 285 males and 539 females, aged (62±11)years. According to the evalua-tion criteria of TOLS, patients were divided into those who achieved TOLS and those who did not achieve TOLS. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and com-parison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data were conduc-ted using the Mann-Whitney U test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rate and draw survival curve, and the Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. The COX stepwise regression model with backward Wald method was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. Results:(1) Achievement of TOLS. Of the 824 patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC, there were 510 cases achieving TOLS and 314 cases not achieving TOLS. (2) Follow-up. Of the 824 patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC, after excluding 112 deaths within 90 days after discharge, 712 cases were included for the survival analysis. The median follow-up time, median overall survival time and 5-year overall survival rate of the 510 patients achieving TOLS were 22.1(11.4,30.1)months, 47.6(30.6,64.6)months and 47.5%. The median follow-up time, median overall survival time and 5-year overall survival rate of the 202 patients not achieving TOLS were 14.0(6.8,25.5)months, 24.3(20.0,28.6)months and 21.0%. There was a significant difference in overall survival between patients achieving TOLS and patients not achieving TOLS ( χ2=58.491, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of factors influencing prognosis of patients. Results of multivariate analysis showed that TOLS, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), CA19-9, poorly differentiation of tumor, T2 stage of eighth edition of American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging, T3 and T4 stage of eighth edition of AJCC staging, N1 stage of the eighth edition of AJCC staging, N2 stage of the eighth edition of AJCC staging, adjuvant therapy were independent factors influencing overall survival time of patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC ( hazard ratio=0.452, 1.479, 1.373, 1.612, 1.455, 1.481, 1.835, 1.978, 0.538, 95% c onfidence interval as 0.352-0.581, 1.141-1.964, 1.052-1.791, 1.259-2.063, 1.102-1.920, 1.022-2.147, 1.380-2.441, 1.342-2.915, 0.382-0.758, P<0.05). Conclusion:Patients under-going curative-intent resection for GBC with TOLS can achieve better long-term prognosis.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of lung recruitment maneuver(LRM)on postoperative hypoxemia in patients with acute type A aortic dissection(ATAAD).Methods A total of 56 ATAAD patients with postoperative hypoxemia in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from November 2019 to May 2022 were selected and randomly divided into LRM group(n=36)and conventional treatment group(n=20).Patients in conventional treatment group received routine mechanical ventilation on the basis of lung protective ventilation.The patients in LRM group were treated with incremental positive end expiratory pressure(PEEP).Arterial blood gas analysis,respiratory parameters,hemodynamics parameters and serum interleukin(IL)-6 and IL-10 levels were compared between two groups before and after treatment.Results At 12h and 24h after treatment,arterial partial pressure of oxygen(PaO2),oxygenation index(OI),static compliance(Cstat)and dynamic compliance(Cdyn)in two groups were significantly higher than before treatment,the alveolar-arterial gradient of oxygen[PO2(A-a)],respiratory index(RI),peak inspiratory pressure(Ppeak)and plateau pressure(Pplat)were significantly lower than before treatment(P<0.05).PaO2,OI,Cstat and Cdyn in LRM group were significantly higher than those in conventional treatment group,PO2(A-a),RI,Ppeak and Pplat were significantly lower than those in conventional treatment group(P<0.05).Systolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure decreased and central venous pressure increased during pulmonary reexpansion in LRM group(P<0.05),and all patients returned to baseline level after pulmonary reexpansion.At 12h after treatment,serum IL-6 and IL-10 levels in both groups were significantly lower than before treatment(P<0.05).Conclusion Incremental PEEP can improve oxygenation and lung compliance in patients with hypoxemia after ATAAD surgery,but it has transient effects on hemodynamics,and should be closely monitored during treatment.
