Objective To construct a predictive model for high-grade pathological components of early invasive lung adenocarcinoma(ILAC)based on radiomics.Methods Collecting information on total 495 patients who underwent radical operation and were pathologically diagnosed as stage Ⅰ in the cardiothoracic surgery of Zhoushan Hospital from January 2015 to December 2019,including gender,age,pathological findings,tumor markers and preoperative chest CT images.The micropapillary and solid components in postoperative pathology were defined as"high-grade pathological components",while those without high-grade pathological components were classified into the low-grade group and those with high-grade pathological components were classified into the high-grade group.And patients were randomly divided into the training set(343 cases)and the validation set(152 cases)with a ratio of 7∶3 using the simple randomization grouping method.The region of interest of nodules on CT images were delineated layer by layer by scientific research platform and 1950 radiomics features were extracted.And then those features were filtrated by F-test,Pearson correlation coefficient,and L1 based feature selection.A model was built by using Logistic regression machine learning classifier,named mod 2,and radscore was also obtained.Differences between general information and CT features were analyzed.Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to construct a model for statistically significant variables,named mod 1.At the same time,Radscore was added to build the mod and named comb mod.The area under the curve(AUC),sensitivity and specificity of the three models were calculated.A nomogram was also drawn.Results A total of 495 patients were divided into the training set(n=343)and the validation set(n=152).Gender,carcinoma embryonic antigen(CEA),nodule,and maximum diameter were screened out in clinical features and involved in constructing the mod 1.Twelve features were selected from the radiomics features to build mod 2.Comb mod performed best,training set AUC:0.887,validation set AUC:0.875,and had good clinical practicability.Conclusion The model composed of general feature,CT feature and radiomics features could accurately predict high-grade pathological components in early ILAC,and provide references for clinicians to choose surgical method for patients.

Objective To explore the economic toxicity perceptions and experiences of caregivers of colorectal cancer patients from the perspective of social ecological systems theory.Methods Using purposive sampling,18 caregivers of colorectal cancer patients hospitalized in the gastrointestinal sur-gery and oncology departments of a tertiary grade A hospital in Yangzhou were selected for semi-struc-tured interviews.The Colaizzi 7-step analysis method was employed to organize and analyze the data.Results Three main themes and nine sub-themes were extracted regarding the economic toxicity expe-riences and needs of caregivers of colorectal cancer patients.Microsystem included multiple negative experiences,impacted individual health,and difficulties in surrogate decision-making;mesosystem in-cluded heavy family financial burden,altered family lifestyle,and tense family atmosphere;macrosys-tem included needs for the scope and intensity of medical insurance reimbursement,needs for medical resources and services,and a desire for social support.Conclusion The ecological system of caregiv-ers of colorectal cancer patients is not optimistic,and is generally affected by economic toxicity.Inter-vention strategies can be sought from multiple aspects,including alleviating the negative experiences of caregivers,strengthening social support,and paying attention to the needs of caregivers,aiming to re-duce the level of economic toxicity among caregivers of colorectal cancer patients.

Objective To investigate the application effect of a refined early diet plan in patients with distal gastric cancer after laparoscopic radical surgery.Methods By convenience sampling method,46 patients with laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for distal gastric cancer admitted to a tertiary hospital in Zhejiang Province from July to December 2023 were selected as an experimental group,while 49 patients admitted from January to June 2023 as a control group.The experimental group was administered with the refined early diet plan,and the control group was administered with conventional methods.The intervention period was from the first day after surgery to discharge.The differences of the first postoperative defecation time,perioperative thirst and hunger score,postoperative hospitalization time,hospitalization cost,postoperative complications and the incidence of readmission 30 days after surgery were compared between the 2 groups.Results 42 patients in the experimental group and 49 patients in the control group completed the study.First postoperative exhaust time(t=4.922,P＜0.001),first postopera-tive defecation time(Z=-2.440,P=0.015),perioperative thirst score(Z=-8.024,P＜0.001),perioperative hunger score(Z=-8.192,P＜0.00 1),postoperative hospitalization time(Z=-7.622,P＜0.001)and hospitalization cost(Z=-4.522,P＜0.001)were lower than those of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant.There was no significant difference in complication rate and 30-day readmission rate between the experimental group and the control group(P＞0.05).Conclusion The refined early diet plan is safe and effective for early recovery of patients after laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for distal gastric cancer,promoting intestinal function recovery,shortening hospital stay,reducing hospital costs,and improving patients'subjective comfort.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of Chevron-Akin osteotomy with cannulated compression screw and absorbable screw fixation in the treatment of moderate and severe hallux valgus.Methods:The data of 52 patients with moderate to severe hallux valgus treated in Sichuan Provincial Orthopaedic Hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the fixation method, they were divided into metal screw group and absorbable screw group. In the metal screw group, there were 25 cases (26 feet), 2 males (2 feet) and 23 females (24 feet), aged 36.7±4.9 years (range, 21-59 years), 12 feet on the left side, 14 feet on the right side, moderate 20 feet and severe 6 feet. There were 27 cases (29 feet) in the absorbable screw group, including 1 male (1 foot) and 26 female (28 feet), aged 34.1±5.5 years (range, 19-56 years), 16 feet on the left side, 13 feet on the right side, moderate 22 feet and severe 7 feet. The healing time and complications of osteotomy were recorded between the two groups, and the hallux valgus angle (HVA), first-second intermetatarsal angle (1-2 IMA), American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS), hallux-metatarsophalangeal-interphalangeal joint score and visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain were compared before and after the operation.Results:All 52 patients were followed up. The follow-up time was 14.0±3.4 months (range, 11-27 months) in the metal screw group and 15.1±2.7 months (range, 13-24 months) in the absorbable screw group. In all patients, the incision healed in one stage, and no endovegetal rejection occurred. The osteotomy healing time was 3.8±0.8 months (range, 2-5 months) in the metal screw group and 3.4±1.1 months (range, 2.5-5 months) in the absorbable screw group, with no statistically significant difference ( t=1.014, P=0.417). In the metal screw group, there were symptoms of medial internal fixation irritation in 2 feet, medial osteophyte or thread knot irritation in 2 feet, and hallux valgus recurrence in 1 foot. The complication rate was 19%(5/26). In the absorbable screw group, medial osteophyte or thread knot stimulated one foot and hallux valgus recurred one foot, and the complication rate was 7%(2/29). The difference in complications between the two groups was statistically significant (χ 2=8.051, P=0.012). At 12 months after operation, for the metal screw group and the absorbable screw group, HVA (13.7°±2.1° and 12.9°±3.8°), 1-2 IMA (7.2°±1.5° and 7.8°±1.2°), AOFAS score (91.4±2.2 and 90.8±3.6 points) and VAS score (1.1±0.3 and 1.3±0.4 points), respectively, were significantly higher than those in the preoperative (HVA: 37.2°± 5.4° and 35.8°±4.7°, 1-2 IMA: 18.3°± 1.8° and 17.9°±1.7°, AOFAS score: 60.4±5.6 and 58.4±7.1 points, VAS: 6.4±0.6 and 6.8±0.4 points) improvement ( P<0.05), while there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidence of complications in metal screw group was 19%(5/26), while in absorbable screw group it was 7%(2/29), with a statistically significant difference (χ 2=8.051, P=0.012). Conclusions:Both cannulated compression screw in Chevron-Akin osteotomy and absorbable screw fixation can have a good fixation effect in the treatment of moderate and severe hallux valgus. Absorbable screw fixation has the advantages of low complication rate, less interference with artifacts in later imaging examination and evaluation.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To identify the risk factors for postoperative adverse ischemic events (IEs) in high-altitude patients requiring intraoperative erythrocyte transfusion.Methods:This was a case-control study. Patient perioperative data and blood transfusion information were obtained through the electronic medical record system, biobank and case follow-up database. Patients with a long history of living at high altitudes who underwent elective tracheal intubation with general anesthesia and received red blood cell transfusion during surgery were selected, and their general characteristics and intraoperative data were collected. Based on the occurrence of ischemic events during postoperative hospitalization, patients were divided into IE group and non-IE group, and the risk factors for IE were identified by multivariate logistic regression analysis (stepwise regression).Results:There were 95 patients in IE group and 232 patients in non-IE group. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age ≥65 yr, American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅲ, extremely high altitude (≥4 500 m), history of cerebral infarction, high altitude polycythemia, low hemoglobin concentration before blood transfusion, large difference in intraoperative Hb concentrations, massive blood loss and long duration of anesthesia were the risk factors for postoperative IEs in high-altitude patients requiring intraoperative erythrocyte transfusion ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Age≥65 yr, American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅲ, extremely high altitude, history of cerebral infarction, high altitude polycythemia, low hemoglobin concentration before blood transfusion, large difference in intraoperative Hb concentrations, massive blood loss and long duration of anesthesia are the risk factors for postoperative IEs in high-altitude patients requiring intraoperative erythrocyte transfusion.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics of elderly patients with stage Ⅰ diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and analyze the factors associated with prognosis.Methods:A case series study was conducted by retrospectively collecting clinical data from patients aged over 60 years with newly diagnosed stage Ⅰ DLBCL across 20 medical centers in Jiangsu Province, China, between June 2010 and April 2023. The involved site, classification and treatment plan were summarized. The primary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Statistical analyses were performed using the Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox regression model.Results:The study included 255 patients with a median age of 69 years, of whom 130 (51.0%) were male, 66 (25.9%) were aged ≥75 years and 26 (10.1%) had a high Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) score of ≥2. Extranodal involvement was observed in 163 (63.9%) patients, with the stomach (37.4%, 61/163), intestine (19.0%, 31/163), testes (11.0%, 18/163), and breast (7.4%, 12/163) being the most frequently affected sites. The non-germinal center B-cell (non-GCB) subtype was prevalent in 63.7% of patients (142/223), with no significant difference between the nodal and extranodal groups ( P=0.681). Furthermore, 73.9% (184/249) and 11.7% (29/249) of patients received the R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone) and R-miniCHOP regimen, respectively. The overall 3-year PFS rate was 81.5%, and the 3-year OS rate was 85.6%. Patients aged ≥75 years ( HR=2.910, 95% CI 1.565-5.408, P=0.001) and/or with a CCI score ≥2 ( HR=2.324, 95% CI 1.141-4.732, P=0.020) had a significantly poorer PFS. Incorporating age ≥75 years and CCI score ≥2 into the stage-modified international prognostic index (sm-IPI) can better stratify the prognosis of elderly patients with stage Ⅰ DLBCL. The 3-year PFS rate was 48.7% in the high-risk group versus 85.7% in the low-risk group ( P<0.001). Conclusions:Our findings show that the elderly patients with stage Ⅰ DLBCL were predominantly characterized by extranodal involvement (particularly in the stomach and intestinal tract) and non-GCB subtype. Age ≥75 years and CCI ≥2 were identified as independent prognostic factors. The newly established sm-IPI-75-CCI incorporating these factors demonstrated superior prognostic discrimination compared to conventional risk assessment systems.

Objective·To identify relevant biomarkers for patients with coronavirus disease 2019-associated kidney injury(COVID-19-associated KI)and explore the mechanisms underlying the involvement of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2(SARS-CoV-2)proteins in infection-related KI by affecting the interactions between renal cells and macrophages.Methods·A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical characteristics of COVID-19 patients with KI treated in Shanghai Ninth,People's,hospital from December 2022 to February 2023.Serum levels of inflammatory factors and chemokines were measured by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).In vitro,human macrophage cell line THP-1 cells were stimulated with recombinant S1 subunit protein derived from SARS-CoV-2 spike protein.The cells and culture supernatants were collected to detect the levels of inflammatory factors and chemokines by using quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR)and ELISA.Conditioned medium was prepared from the cell culture supernatants of S1-stimulated THP-1 cells and used to stimulate human renal epithelial cells(HK-2)in vitro to assess cytokine secretion.Antibody blocking experiments were performed to analyze the effects of the conditioned medium on the production of cytokines in HK-2 cells.Results·Among 39 patients with COVID-19,8(20.50%)had creatinine levels above the reference interval,which indicated the occurrence of KI.The levels of peripheral tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in the COVID-19 patient with KI group[(18.33±8.20)pg/mL]were significantly higher than those in the non-KI group[(11.88±6.50)pg/mL](P=0.015).In vitro assay has shown that S1-spike protein stimulation promoted the level of gene transcription and production of TNF-α,interleukin-1β(IL-1β)and chemokine C-X-C motif ligand 10(CXCL10)in THP-1 macrophage cells(P＜0.001).Furthermore,the conditioned medium from S1-stimulated THP-1 cells promoted the secretion of TNF-α,IL-1β and CXCL10 by HK-2 cells(P=0.005).When anti-TNF-α antibody(Infliximab)was used to block TNF-α in the culture supernatants from S1-stimulated THP-1 cells,the secretion level of TNF-α by HK-2 cells decreased dramatically(P＜0.001).Conclusion·TNF-α levels increase significantly in COVID-19 patients with KI,implying the significance of TNF-α in the occurrence of COVID-19-associated KI.In vitro experiments confirm that the S1 protein induces TNF-α secretion from THP-1 cells,leading to increased inflammatory responses in renal cells,which may contribute to the development of COVID-19-associated KI.Therefore,targeting TNF-α may become an alternative strategy to reduce the occurrence of COVID-19-associated KI.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of common pathogens isolated from cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)in CHINET program from 2015 to 2021.Methods The bacterial strains isolated from CSF were identified in accordance with clinical microbiology practice standards.Antimicrobial susceptibility test was conducted using Kirby-Bauer method and automated systems per the unified CHINET protocol.Results A total of 14 014 bacterial strains were isolated from CSF samples from 2015 to 2021,including the strains isolated from inpatients(95.3％)and from outpatient and emergency care patients(4.7％).Overall,19.6％of the isolates were from children and 80.4％were from adults.Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria accounted for 68.0％and 32.0％,respectively.Coagulase negative Staphylococcus accounted for 73.0％of the total Gram-positive bacterial isolates.The prevalence of MRSA was 38.2％in children and 45.6％in adults.The prevalence of MRCNS was 67.6％in adults and 69.5％in children.A small number of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium(2.2％)and linezolid-resistant Enterococcus faecalis(3.1％)were isolated from adult patients.The resistance rates of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae to ceftriaxone were 52.2％and 76.4％in children,70.5％and 63.5％in adults.The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant E.coli and K.pneumoniae(CRKP)was 1.3％and 47.7％in children,6.4％and 47.9％in adults.The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB)and Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPA)was 74.0％and 37.1％in children,81.7％and 39.9％in adults.Conclusions The data derived from antimicrobial resistance surveillance are crucial for clinicians to make evidence-based decisions regarding antibiotic therapy.Attention should be paid to the Gram-negative bacteria,especially CRKP and CRAB in central nervous system(CNS)infections.Ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance is helpful for optimizing antibiotic use in CNS infections.
