Objective:This study aims to investigate the feasibility and safety of implanting leadless pacemakers in the low septum and its impact on cardiac electrical synchronization.Methods:A total of 36 patients who received leadless pacemaker implantation at Fuwai Central China Cardiovascular Hospital from January 2021 to August 2023 were included in this study.According to implantation sites of leadless pacemakers,patients were divided into mid-septal group(n=16)and low-septal group(n=20).The clinical characteristics and cardiac electrical synchronization were compared between the two groups.Results:There were 21 male patients,mean age was(68±13)years old.There was no statistical difference in the type of brady-arrhythmia between the two groups(P=0.73).There were 61 implant attempts in these 36 patients,and there was no significant difference in the number of attempts,procedure time,and pacemaker parameters between the two groups,but the average procedure time tended to be shorter in the low-septal group([84±37]minutes vs.[105±35]minutes,P=0.09).In terms of electrical synchronization,there was no statistical difference in QRS duration between the low-septal group and the mid-septal group([162.0±21.1]ms vs.[174.0±14.8]ms,P=0.20).There were no vascular puncture complications,cardiac perforation,or pericardial tamponade during the procedure.There were no complications and readmissions related to the leadless pacemaker during follow-up period.Conclusions:Our results show that the implantation of a leadless pacemaker in the low ventricular septum is safe and effective,has a similar impact on cardiac electrical synchronization as mid-septal pacing.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for the treatment of BCR::ABL-negative chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL) and MDS/MPN with neutrophilia.Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed 12 cases of CNL and MDS/MPN with neutrophilia that underwent allo-HSCT from March 2017 to June 2024, comprising 7 males and 5 females with a median age of 48 ( IQR: 28, 59) years. The 2-year overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR), and transplantation-related mortality (TRM) rates were analyzed. Complications were also assessed. Results:Of the 12 patients, 6 received matched sibling HSCT and 6 received haploidentical HSCT. All patients had successful engraftment, and the median times of neutrophil and platelet engraftment were 17 ( IQR: 11, 24) days and 15 ( IQR: 9, 28) days, respectively. Grade Ⅱ–Ⅳ acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) and chronic GVHD occurred in 2 and 4 cases, respectively. The 2-year OS, DFS, CIR, and TRM rates were (65.6 ± 16.4) %, (41.7 ± 16.6) %, (47.2 ±18.2) %, and (11.1 ± 11.4) %, respectively, after a median follow-up time of 637 ( IQR: 330, 943) days. One patient died from treatment-related complications due to respiratory failure caused by coronavirus disease 2019. Two patients died due to relapse. Conclusion:Allo-HSCT can be applied as a safe and effective approach to treat CNL and MDS/MPN with neutrophilia.

Background Psychological disturbances such as work-family conflict and depressive mood are prevalent among occupational groups and are closely related to eating behavior. Therefore, investigating the influencing factors of eating behavior is of great significance for promoting the health behaviors of occupational populations. Objective To clarify the current situation of eating behavior among the occupational populations aged 18 to 60 years in China, and to explore the relationship between work-family conflict, depressive mood, and eating behavior, and to test the mediating role of depressive mood in the relationship. Methods The study used a data set containing occupational populations aged 18 to 60 years extracted from the 2021 Psychology and Behavior Investigation of Chinese Residents. The Work-Family Conflict Scale, the Chinese version of the Sakata Eating Behavior Scale Short Form, and the Patient Health Questionnaire-Depression Scale were used. Potential influencing factors of eating behavior of the occupational populations were evaluated by multiple linear regression. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the relationships between work-family conflict, depressive mood, and eating behavior, and the Bootstrap method was used to test the mediating effect of depressive mood on the relationship of work-family conflict and eating behavior. Results Among the occupational populations, the proportion of reporting high work-family conflict was 48.4%, and the proportion of reporting mild depression and above was 48.7%. The total score of eating behavior was (16.16±4.64), and the proportion of high abnormal eating behavior tendency was 39.1%. There were significant differences in eating behavior score among different age, educational level, marital status, number of offspring, occupation, smoking, and drinking groups (P<0.05). The partial correlation analysis showed that work-family conflict and depressive mood were positively correlated with abnormal eating behavior (r=0.367, 0.386, P<0.001); work-family conflict was positively correlated with depressive mood (r=0.466, P<0.001). The results of the multiple linear regression showed that depressive mood, work-family conflict, age, smoking, drinking, and education level were associated with eating behavior (P<0.05). The structural equation modeling indicated that work-family conflict positively associated with depressive mood (b=0.529, P<0.001), depressive mood positively associated with abnormal eating behavior (b=0.292, P<0.001), and work-family conflict positively associated with abnormal eating behavior (b=0.270, P<0.001). Depressive mood played a partial mediating role in the relationship between work-family conflict and eating behavior, and the effect value was 0.154 (95%CI: 0.132, 0.179) that accounted for 36.32% of the total effect. Conclusion Work-family conflict could directly affect the eating behavior among occupational populations, and also indirectly affect eating behavior through a mediating effect of depressive mood. Therefore, optimizing the allocation of tasks between work and family, providing psychological support in need, alleviating work-family conflict and depressive mood may improve the eating behavior and mental health of working populations.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of multimodal comprehensive diabetes management teaching in the standardized training of endocrinology residents.Methods Fifty-nine resident physicians rotating through the endocrinology department from March to October 2024 were selected.They underwent a multimodal comprehensive diabetes management teaching model that integrated standardized theoretical instruction,case dis-cussions,teaching ward rounds,practical operations,and interdisciplinary pharmaceutical education.The effec-tiveness of this teaching model was evaluated through multiple dimensions using a comprehensive diabetes man-agement evaluation form,Mini-Clinical Evaluation Exercise(Mini-CEX)scale,and satisfaction surveys.Results After two months of multimodal standardized training,the results showed:1)The resident physicians demonstra-ted significant improvements in all aspects of comprehensive diabetes management(P＜0.05).2)The Mini-CEX scores of the resident physicians generally reached excellent levels(P＜0.05).3)Both the resident physicians and teaching faculty showed significantly higher satisfaction with the comprehensive diabetes management program after the training(P＜0.05).Conclusions Multimodal comprehensive diabetes management teaching is effective in enhancing the standardized diagnosis and treatment abilities of resident physicians in the endocrinology depart-ment regarding diabetes.

Objectives:This study aims to explore the impact of new-onset heart conduction block post transcatheter aortic valve replacement(TAVR)on the cardiac conduction status during 1-year follow-up.Methods:A total of 130 patients who completed TAVR surgery at Fuwai Central-China Cardiovascular Hospital from July 2019 to October 2022 were screened.Among them,56 cases with postoperative heart conduction block were selected for analysis.According to the degree of heart block,patients were divided into mild block group(n=36),moderate block group(n=9),and severe block group(n=11).The clinical characteristics and cardiac conduction conditions at 1-year follow-up between different groups were compared.Results:During a mean(8.5±4.1)months follow-up period,10(17.9%)patients had long-term atrioventricular conduction block,and 46(82.1%)patients had partial or complete recovery of heart block,with 28(50.0%)patients with completely recovered cardiac conduction.In the mild block group,22(61.1%)cases were completely recovered,9(25.0%)patients partly recovered,and 5(13.9%)cases uncovered.In the moderate block group,2(22.2%)cases were completely recovered,5(55.6%)patients partly recovered,and 2(22.2%)cases uncovered.Difference in long-term atrioventricular conduction block among three groups was statistically significant(P<0.001).The Kaplan-Meier curve shows that patients with moderate to severe heart block have a higher rate of long-term atrioventricular conduction block(86.1%vs.77.8%vs.72.7%,log-rank P=0.03).Cox multivariate analysis exhibited that old age(≥75 years old,HR=1.204,95%CI:1.051-1.525,P=0.041)and severe heart conduction block(HR=1.106,95%CI:1.100-1.616,P=0.031)are the two independent risk factors for long-term atrioventricular conduction block post TAVR.Conclusions:The ratio of complete cardiac conduction recovery post TAVR is 50.0%.Older age(≥75 year)and new-onset severe heart conduction block are independent risk factors for long-term atrioventricular conduction block post TAVR procedure.

The paper reports a case of 2,8-dihydroxyadenine (2,8-DHA) crystalline nephropathy caused by mutation of adenine phosphoribosyltransferase ( APRT) gene. The female patient was 60 years old, and sought medical advice due to "foaming urine increased for half a year". Renal biopsy result showed irregular yellowish brown 2,8-DHA crystals with refraction under polarized light. 2,8-DHA crystals were found by urine sediment detection, and homozygous deletion of c.521_523delTCT on exon 5 of APRT gene was found by genetic testing. Finally this patient was diagnosed as 2,8-DHA crystalline nephropathy. Renal function improved after treatment with allopurinol. The case report aims to improve the clinician's understanding of 2,8-DHA crystalline nephropathy. Early recognition, correct diagnosis, and early drug intervention may delay the progression of renal failure and improve the prognosis.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.
