Objective To analyze the risk factors associated with the occurrence of rectal neuroendocrine tumors (RNETs) and construct a risk prediction model. Methods Clinical data of patients who underwent electronic colonoscopy were collected. The clinical information on patients with and without RNETs were compared, and potential risk factors for RNETs were identified. Binary logistic regression was performed to analyze the relevant risk factors and construct a risk prediction model. Results Among 164 patients, 66 were diagnosed with RNETs, and 98 who did not have such a condition were randomly selected. Univariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age, fatty liver, anxiety and depression, total cholesterol, triglyceride levels, and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) were significant factors influencing the occurrence of RNETs (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified age (P=0.015), anxiety and depression (P=0.031), cholesterol level (P=0.009), fatty liver (P=0.001), and CEA (P<0.001) as independent risk factors for RNETs. The participants were randomly divided into training and test sets at a 7:3 ratio. The training set was used to construct a nomogram-based risk prediction model, and the testing set was used for internal validation. The area under the curve values for the training and testing sets were 0.843 and 0.772, respectively (P>0.05). These findings indicate a good discriminative performance. The calibration curves for the training and testing sets were in good agreement with the 45° standard line, which suggests that the predicted probabilities were consistent with the actual outcomes. Decision curve analysis showed that the model provided a high net benefit within a threshold range of 0.2 to 0.7 for clinical decision making. Conclusion Young age, fatty liver, high CEA levels, high cholesterol levels, and anxiety and depression are independent risk factors for RNETs. The nomogram model constructed based on these risk factors exhibits a strong capability to predict the occurrence of RNETs, and clinical intervention can be considered based on the predicted probability values.

Objective:To investigate the association between exposed cardia glands and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and identify risk factors for exposed cardia glands.Methods:Patients who underwent gastroscopy at Chengde Central Hospital from December 2023 to March 2024 were prospectively enrolled. Patients with exposed cardia glands meeting inclusion criteria comprised the observation group, while controls had no exposed cardia glands but met identical criteria. Demographic, lifestyle, and endoscopic characteristics were compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 204 patients were included in the observation group, while 310 in the control group. Univariate analysis demonstrated statistically significant differences between the observation group and the control group in the following factors: body mass index, waist circumference, smoking, alcohol consumption, tea/coffee intake, spicy food preference, sleeping posture, use of calcium channel blockers, Helicobacter pylori infection, peptic ulcer disease, and GERD ( P<0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis identified the following independent risk factors for exposed cardia glands: waist circumference ( P=0.012, OR=1.070, 95% CI: 1.015-1.129), alcohol consumption ( P=0.003, OR=2.166, 95% CI: 1.293-3.631), spicy food preference ( P=0.048, OR=1.611, 95% CI: 1.004-2.582), right-side sleeping posture ( P<0.001, OR=3.219, 95% CI: 1.696-6.108), use of calcium channel blockers ( P<0.001, OR=3.871, 95% CI: 2.263-6.621), Helicobacter pylori infection ( P<0.001, OR=3.512, 95% CI: 1.953-6.317), and GERD ( P<0.001, OR=2.905, 95% CI: 1.829-4.613) .Conclusion:Exposed cardia glands demonstrates significant association with GERD. Key independent risk factors include waist circumference, alcohol consumption, spicy diet, right-side sleeping position, calcium channel blockers use, and Helicobacter pylori infection.

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.
