With the rapid advancement of hemodynamic indices and monitoring technologies, their classification methods and application processes have become increasingly complex. Currently, no unified standard hasbeen established, making it difficult to fully meet the clinical requirements for hemodynamic management. To assist in hemodynamic monitoring assessment and therapeutic decision-making in critically ill patients, the Critical Hemodynamic Therapy Collaborative Group, in conjunction with the Critical Ultrasound Study Group, has jointly developed the Standard for the Application of Hemodynamic Monitoring Techniques in Critical Care. The first part of this standard systematically categorizes hemodynamic indicators into flow indicators, pressure and its derivative indicators, and tissue perfusion indicators, while elaborating on the clinical application of each. The second part establishes a standardized clinical implementation pathway for hemodynamic monitoring. It proposes a tiered monitoring strategy-comprising basic, advanced, indication-specific, and special scenario monitoring-tailored to different clinical settings. It emphasizes the central role of critical care ultrasound across all levels of monitoring and establishes hemodynamic assessment standards for organs such as the brain, kidneys, and gastrointestinal tract. This standard aims to provide a unified framework for clinical practice, teaching, training, and research in critical care medicine, thereby promoting standardized development within the discipline.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the feasibility of various strength levels of deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) algorithms for improving non-contrast abdominal CT image quality at ultra-low radiation doses, by comparing ultra-low-dose DLIR images with low-dose filtered back projection (FBP) images. MethodsA prospective collection of 85 patients undergoing non-contrast abdominal CT scans was performed, and a self-controlled study method was employed to conduct low-dose (LD) group and ultra-low-dose (ULD) group scans. The LD group used a noise index of 10 and employed FBP for image reconstruction (LD-FBP group). The ULD group used a noise index of 30 and employed DLIR at different levels (low, medium, high), resulting in three subgroups of reconstructed images: ULD-DLIR-L, ULD-DLIR-M, and ULD-DLIR-H. For each group, CT values, standard devia-tion (SD), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) were measured and calculated for the liver, spleen, kidneys, aorta, psoas major, and subcutaneous fat. Effective dose (ED) was also recorded. Two radiologists independently performed subjective evaluations of image quality using a 5-point scale. ResultsCompared with the LD-FBP group, the ULD-DLIR-L group showed significantly lower SNR and CNR values in the liver, spleen, kidneys, aorta, and psoas major (P<0.001), while the ULD-DLIR-H group exhibited significantly higher values (P<0.001). The difference of SNR and CNR values for the ULD-DLIR-M group showed no statistically significant difference. For subjective evaluation, the scores of the ULD-DLIR-L and ULD-DLIR-M groups were lower than those of the LD-FBP group, while there was no statistically significant difference in scores between the ULD-DLIR-H group and the LD-FBP group. The ED value of the ULD group was approximately 88% lower than that of the LD group. ConclusionCompared with the LD-FBP group, the ULD-DLIR-H group significantly reduces SD values while increasing SNR and CNR values, effectively improving the image quality of non-contrast abdominal CT scans.

Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.

Objective:To investigate the epidemiology and clinical characteristics of adenovirus (ADV)-caused acute respiratory tract infection among hospitalized children in Kunming, China.Methods:Clinical and laboratory data were collected from 467 children with adenovirus infection who were hospitalized from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019 in 6 grade A class Ⅲ hospitals in Kunming area. The basic characteristics, epidemiology, mixed infection and adenovirus genotypes of the patients were retrospectively analyzed. The patients diagnosed with adenovirus pneumonia (AP) were divided into two groups, severe AP (SAP) group and general AP(GAP) group according to the severity of illness. Mann-Whitney U test or χ 2 test was used for comparison between groups, while multivariate regression was applied to analyze the risk factors of SAP. Results:Among 15 635 hospitalized children with respiratory tract infection, 467 cases were adenovirus positive, with a detection rate of 2.99%. Of the 467 patients with adenovirus infection, 284 were male and 183 female, the age was 2.4 (1.1,3.9) years, including 44 cases (9.4%) < 0.5 years, 59 cases (12.6%) of 0.5 to<1.0 years, 176 cases (37.7%) of 1.0 to <3.0 years, 150 cases (32.1%) of 3.0 to <7.0 years, and 38 cases (8.1%) of 7.0 to 14.0 years. Adenovirus infection was common in autumn and winter, and the high incidence months were October to December, which accounted for 51.6% (241/467) of the whole year cases. Co-infection was detected in 226 cases (48.4%) out of 467 patients, in which one pathogen co-infection was the most frequent form (172 cases, 76.1%). Of the 262 pathogen detected 108 (41.2%) were Mycoplasma pneumoniae. In 144 of ADV-positve cases (30.8%) were taken geno-typing was done by PCR amplification, the results showed that 74 cases (51.4%) were ADV 3, 7 subtypes and 65 cases (45.1%) of ADV 1, 2,6 subtypes. Of the 467 cases of ADV infection, 320 (68.5%) were diagnosed with pneumonia, 82 (17.6%) with upper respiratory tract infection and pharyngeal tonsillitis, and 65 (13.9%) with bronchitis, laryngeal bronchitis, and asthmatic bronchitis. Among the 320 patients with AP, 56 cases were severe and 264 cases were general. Two cases (3.6%) in severe group died. Compared with the GAP group, the age was young [17 (11,42) months vs. 24 (14,44) months, Z=2.222, P=0.026], the fever duration was long [8 (5,14) days vs. 6 (3,9) days, Z=3.380, P<0.01], and the proportions of preterm birth and having underlying diseases were high [respectively 19.6% (11/56) vs. 6.1% (16/264), 26.8% (15/56) vs. 10.2% (27/264), χ 2=8.965,11.109, P<0.05] in SAP group. Referring to laboratory markers, white blood cell count, C-reactive protein, creatine kinase-MB and lactate dehydrogenase were significantly increased in SAP group as compared to GAP group(all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that preterm birth ( OR=3.284, 95% CI 1.079-9.993, P=0.036), underlying disease ( OR=3.284, 95% CI 1.079-9.993, P=0.036), fever duration ≥10 d ( OR=2.523,95% CI 1.195-5.328, P=0.015) and C-reactive protein ≥50 mg/L ( OR=3.156, 95% CI 1.324-7.524, P=0.010) were positively correlated with the risk of SAP. Conclusions:The incidence of adenovirus infection among hospitalized children in Kunming was lower than the national level, and no outbreak occurred in 2019. Subtype 3 and 7 of ADV are the predominant strains for infection, which usually occurs in autumn and winter and mainly causes pneumonia. Premature birth, underlining diseases, long fever duration and markedly increased C-reactive protein are the risk factors for developing into severe pneumonia. This paper presents the prevalence and clinical characteristics of adenovirus infection in children at high altitude area.

Objective:
To evaluate the clinical application effects of an iliac-crest-preserving iliac wing bone graft harvesting technique and the bone regenerative ability of the donor site after harvesting.
Methods:
From January 2016 to June 2017, a series of 39 patients including 28 men and 11 women aged between 16 and 59 y (35±13 y in average) were prospectively collected to treat bone defects using the iliac-crest-preserving iliac wing bone graft harvesting technique. The patient cohort included 38 ipsilateral and 1 bilateral bone harvests taken from 15 femoral fracture non-unions, 8 tibial fracture non-unions, 11 femoral head necroses (hip preserving surgery), 1 tuberculosis deriving hip arthritis with bone defect (total hip arthroplasty), 2 hip prosthesis loosenings (revision), and 2 proximal femoral benign tumors. All patients were treated through comprehensive surgeries containing autologous iliac bone grafting. The surgical time, blood loss, bone graft volume, 24 h post-operative visual analogue scale (VSA) at the iliac surgical site, complications, and bone regeneration of the donor site were documented and evaluated.
Results:
In the 39 patients (40 sides), the average surgical time was 25±4 min, average blood loss was 79±23 ml, average bone graft volume was 27±6 cm3. The average 24 h post-operative VAS at the iliac surgical site was 1.8±0.7 points. The VSA at the 6 week later and thereafter were 0 in all patients. The iliac incisions in 38 patients (39 sides) were healed uneventfully. However, seroma at the iliac surgical site emerged in 1 patient at the 6th post-operative day in the manner of serous exudation and was treated successfully with non-operative measures. None infections and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injuries took place. Iatrogenic non-displaced iliac crest fractures happened in the very first 2 patients when taking the crest as a pivot to pry up the graft, which united without special cure at the 3 month post-operative. This complication was completely avoided when shifting the pivot to the anterior pillar containing the anterior iliac spines. None pelvic fractures and heterotopic ossifications took place. Post-operative radiographical examinations revealed that the bone defects at the donor site shrank through bone regeneration, that mamillary or canine-tooth-shaped bone formation occurred in some of the cases, and that none complete bone regeneration took place to eliminate the bone defect at the donor. There were 12 patients in whom pre- and post-operative computed tomographic scans necessitated by the disease were prescribed, which facilitated the measuring of the bone defect at the donor site. The measurement of 13 sides revealed that the bone defects were decreased more or less: the average immediate post-operative bone defect was 25.7±6.5 cm2, the average 12 month post-operative bone defect was 12.7±5.3 cm2.
Conclusion
The iliac wing bone graft harvesting technique suggested here is safe and less invasive, in the premise of preserving the iliac crest and retaining the figure of the surgical site, it can harvest a large amount of iliac wing bone graft and reserve the bone regenerative ability of the donor site
