Objective:To construct classification models of traumatic brain injury (TBI) based on the injury data collected at the scene of the accidents and validate its efficacy.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the pre-hospital treatment data of 368 TBI patients admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Military Medical University from January 2019 to December 2023, including 243 males and 125 females, aged 18-82 years [(48.1±20.8)years]. The patients′ Glasgow coma scale (GCS) scores were 3-15 points [11.0(3.0, 15.0)points] at emergency medical service arrival. The patients were randomly assigned to the training set ( n=257) and test set ( n=111) at a ratio of 7∶3. According to the admission diagnosis, the patients fell into the mild TBI group ( n=62), medium TBI group ( n=137), severe TBI group ( n=120), and extremely severe TBI group ( n=49). In the training set, 44 patients fell into mild TBI group, 98 into medium TBI group, 82 into severe TBI group and 33 into extremely severe TBI group, while in the test set, 18 patients fell into mild TBI group, 39 into medium TBI group, 38 into severe TBI group and 16 into extremely severe TBI group. The following 12 kinds of injury data, including MARCH [massive hemorrhage (M), airway obstruction (A), respiratory failure (R), circulatory failure (C) and hypothermia (H)], GCS, pre-hospital index (PHI), shock index (SI), reverse SI multiplied by GCS (rSIG), optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) measured by ultrasound, scalp and skull injuries were collected at the scene of the accidents. Three machine algorithm including random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM) and logistic regression (LR) were used to construct scene data-based TBI classification models. The accuracy rate, precision rate, recall rate, F1 value and area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) of the 3 models were used to verify the efficiency of the models for TBI classification. Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) method was used to interpret the results of the optimal model. The 12 kinds of injury data in the models were sorted according to their contribution to the TBI classification and the injury data with greater contribution were selected. Results:In the test set, the accuracy rate of the RF, SVM and LR models was 0.93, 0.92 and 0.87, respectively; the precision rate was 0.93, 0.92 and 0.89, respectively; the recall rate was 0.93, 0.92 and 0.87, respectively; the F1 value was 0.93, 0.92 and 0.87, respectively. In the mild, medium, severe and extremely severe TBI groups in the test set, the AUC of the RF model was 0.96 (95% CI 0.92, 0.98), 0.98 (95% CI 0.94, 0.99), 0.97 (95% CI 0.95, 0.98), and 0.97 (95% CI 0.96, 0.98), respectively; the AUC of the SVM model was 0.90 (95% CI 0.88, 0.94), 0.95 (95% CI 0.92, 0.97), 0.96 (95% CI 0.94, 0.98), and 0.95 (95% CI 0.92, 0.99), respectively; the AUC of the LR model was 0.90 (95% CI 0.83, 0.96), 0.90 (95% CI 0.84, 0.95), 0.96 (95% CI 0.95, 0.98), and 0.95 (95% CI 0.94, 0.97), respectively. The RF model demonstrated optimal discriminative performance for TBI classification. As the SHAP′s interpretation of the RF model indicated, among the 12 kinds of injury data, those with greater contributions to the TBI classification were GCS, rSIG, SI, PHI, respiratory failure, ONSD, and circulatory failure in sequence. Conclusions:Of the scene data-based TBI classification models, the RF model achieves good predictive performance for TBI classification when compared with the SVM model and LR model. Besides, GCS, rSIG, SI, PHI, respiratory failure, ONSD and circulatory failure contribute significantly to the classification of TBI in the RF model, which may assist emergency medical personnel in field triage and management of TBI at accident scenes.

Objective To investigate the anatomical features of aortic arch lesions in the Chinese population in order to provide anatomical reference for the development of domestic arch en-dografts.Methods Clinical data of 83 patients with aortic arch lesions were collected from a first prospective multi-center study of WeFlow-Arch stent system,which was carried out between June 1,2021 and January 1,2024 in 17 centers across China.According to their pathologic types,they were divided into an aneurysm group(67 patients)and an ulcer group(16 patients).Preoperative computed tomography angiography images were analyzed using three-dimensional reconstruction techniques to quantify the anatomical characteristics of the aorta.The resulting data were subse-quently compared to assess the anatomical suitability of the Zenith and Relay stents for use in Chinese patients.Results The anatomical feasibility of Zenith stent and Relay stent was 39.8%and 63.9%,respectively in this investigation.No significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of anatomical features,including arch type,aortic diameter and length,di-mensions,orientation,and angulation of arch branch vessels,as well as diameters of the left and right femoral arteries,and proximal and total aortic tortuosity indices(P>0.05).The tortuosity index of the ascending aorta was lower in the aneurysm group than the ulcer group(1.17±0.06 vs 1.22±0.08,P=0.010),but the index within the coverage region of the stent was higher in the aneurysm group than the ulcer group(2.97±0.46 vs 2.66±0.36,P=0.020).Conclusion There are significant variations in the tortuosity indexes of the ascending aorta and the coverage region of the stent among the patients with different aortic arch lesions,and thus,attention should be paid to the variations due to their prognostic implications.The anatomical suitability of foreign de-vices is not good enough for Chinese patients,so it is of great significance for developing en-dografts specifically designed for the patients of our own country.

Objective To prove the feasibility of a Fogging Process in fixing high-concentration radioactive aerosol 131I contamination. Methods High-concentration radioactive aerosol 131I contamination in an 131I-operating glovebox for radiopharmaceutical production was disposed by using fogging and fixing process. The aerosol 131I concentrations were detected and the results were analyzed. Results After a 120 minutes fixing, the 131I contamination in this glovebox reduced from(289 ± 9) DAC and (304 ± 6) DAC to (21.7 ± 2.0) DAC and (26.2 ± 1.8) DAC. After a 180 minutes fixing, the 131I contamination in this glovebox reduced from (259 ± 10) DAC to (1.80 ± 0.18) DAC. These results showed that no aerosol 131I contamination was raised again after 24-hours finishing this task. Conclusion Aerosol 131I concentration in a limited space could be controlled by using a fogging and fixing process, which could reduce the risk of internal exposure of staff. This process could be used by radiopharmaceutical production as an emergency management for dispose high-concentration radioactive aerosol 131I contamination.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of chimney technique during thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair(TEVAR) in aortic arch lesions. Methods The stent-graft was deployed covering super arch branch artery in arch lesions in case there was not enough landing zone. A chimney stent was put in the super arch branch artery. We retrospectively analyzed the data of this group, aiming at summarizing the indications, methods, results and complications of chimney technique. Results From August 2004 to August 2009, 27 aortic arch lesions were treated by TEVAR with chimney stent, male/female ratio was 25/2, average age was 67. 2 ±3. 8 years, including3 chimney stents for innominate artery, 11 chimney stents for left common carotid artery and 13 chimney stent for left subclavian artery. Type I endoleaks were encountered in 18. 5% (5/27) of this group by final angiogram. Left common carotid artery dissection was caused by puncture in one case. One patient died of respiratory failure. There was no postoperative stroke nor bleeding. Discharged patients were followed up from 3 to 60 months, averaging at 16. 8 months. There was one death from MI 4 years later. There was minor stroke and left subclavian artery chimney stent occlusion in one each cases during the follow-up. All endoleaks were sealed without stent migration. Conclusion Chimney technique improves the length of landing zone and decreases effectively the endoleak rate.

Objective To compare the therapeutic effect of endovascular repair (EVAR) and open surgical repair(OSR) of abdominal aortic aneurysm in high-risk patients. Methods The clinical data of 55 patients from 1998 to 2008 with infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm who received surgical treatment were analyzed by using the customized probability index. The perioperative and short term advantages and disadvantages of OSR group (n=20) were compared with EVAR group (n=35). Results All patients in OSR group were followed up, 94% patients in EVAR group were followed up, the mean follow up time were 75 and 70 months respectively. (1) Compared to OSR group, the EVAR group had shorter operation time [(3.1±0.6) h vs (4.9±0.9) h, P<0.05], (2) EVAR group had shorter ICU and hospital stay after operation and less blood loss (P<0.01), (3) Compared to OSR group, the EVAR group had lower mortality within 30 d(2.86% vs 15%), (4)the EVAR group had lower peri-operative complications(17% vs 40%), (5) The main complications of EVAR were endoleak (8.57%), (6) The main complications of OSR was cadiovascular incidence(25%). Conclusions Endovascular treatment, indicated for AAA in high-risk patients, can cut down the perioperative incidence of cadiovascular events, mortality and complications. CPI is useful to estimate the perioperative incidence of cadiovascular events, mortality and complications, and can be used to guide the therapeutic method.
