ObjectiveTo elucidate the critical role of rehabilitation medical records (including electronic records) in rehabilitation medicine's clinical practice and management, comprehensively analyzed the structure, core content and data standards of rehabilitation medical records, to develop a standardized medical record data architecture and core dataset suitable for rehabilitation medicine and to explore the application of rehabilitation data in performance evaluation and payment. MethodsBased on the regulatory documents Basic Specifications for Medical Record Writing and Basic Specifications for Electronic Medical Records (Trial) issued by National Health Commission of China, and referencing the World Health Organization (WHO) Family of International Classifications (WHO-FICs) classifications, International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10/ICD-11), International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), and International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI Beta-3), this study constructed the data architecture, core content and data standards for rehabilitation medical records. Furthermore, it explored the application of rehabilitation record summary sheets (home page) data in rehabilitation medical statistics and payment methods, including Diagnosis-related Groups (DRG), Diagnosis-Intervention Packet (DIP) and Case Mix Index. ResultsThis study proposed a systematic standard framework for rehabilitation medical records, covering key components such as patient demographics, rehabilitation diagnosis, functional assessment, rehabilitation treatment prescriptions, progress evaluations and discharge summaries. The research analyzed the systematic application methods and data standards of ICD-10/ICD-11, ICF and ICHI Beta-3 in the fields of medical record terminology, coding and assessment. Constructing a standardized data structure and data standards for rehabilitation medical records can significantly improve the quality of data reporting based on the medical record summary sheet, thereby enhancing the quality control of rehabilitation services, effectively supporting the optimization of rehabilitation medical insurance payment mechanisms, and contributing to the establishment of rehabilitation medical performance evaluation and payment based on DRG and DIP. ConclusionStructured rehabilitation records and data standardization are crucial tools for quality control in rehabilitation. Systematically applying the three reference classifications of the WHO-FICs, and aligning with national medical record and electronic health record specifications, facilitate the development of a standardized rehabilitation record architecture and core dataset. Standardizing rehabilitation care pathways based on the ICF methodology, and developing ICF- and ICD-11-based rehabilitation assessment tools, auxiliary diagnostic and therapeutic systems, and supporting terminology and coding systems, can effectively enhance the quality of rehabilitation records and enable interoperability and sharing of rehabilitation data with other medical data, ultimately improving the quality and safety of rehabilitation services.

Objective To explore the application of plasma 7 microRNA (miR7) testing in the differential diagnosis of very early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods This study is a multicenter real-world study. Patients with single hepatic lesion (maximum diameter≤2 cm) who underwent plasma miR7 testing at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Anhui Provincial Hospital, and Peking University People’s Hospital between January 2019 and December 2024 were retrospectively enrolled. Patients were divided into very early-stage HCC group and non-HCC group, and the clinical pathological characteristics of the two groups were compared. The value of plasma miR7 levels, alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), and des-gamma-carboxy prothrombin (DCP) in the differential diagnosis of very early-stage HCC was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and area under the curve (AUC). In patients with both negative AFP and DCP (AFP＜20 ng/mL, DCP＜40 mAU/mL), the diagnostic value of plasma miR7 for very early-stage HCC was analyzed. Results A total of 64 528 patients from 4 hospitals underwent miR7 testing, and 1 682 were finally included, of which 1 073 were diagnosed with very early-stage HCC and 609 were diagnosed with non-HCC. The positive rate of miR7 in HCC patients was significantly higher than that in non-HCC patients (67.9% vs 24.3%, P＜0.001). ROC curves showed that the AUCs for miR7, AFP, and DCP in distinguishing HCC patients from the non-HCC individuals were 0.718, 0.682, and 0.642, respectively. The sensitivities were 67.85%, 43.71%, and 44.45%, and the specificities were 75.70%, 92.78%, and 83.91%, respectively. The pairwise comparison of AUCs showed that the diagnostic efficacy of plasma miR7 detection was significantly better than that of AFP or DCP (P＜0.05). Although its specificity was slightly lower than AFP and DCP, the sensitivity was significantly higher. Among patients negative for both AFP and DCP, miR7 maintained an AUC of 0.728 for diagnosing very early-stage HCC, with 67.82% sensitivity and 77.73% specificity. Conclusions Plasma miR7 testing is a potential molecular marker with high sensitivity and specificity for the differential diagnosis of small hepatic nodules. In patients with very early-stage HCC lacking effective molecular markers (negative for both AFP and DCP), miR7 can serve as a novel and effective molecular marker to assist diagnosis.

ObjectiveThe proteome of biological evidence contains rich genetic information, namely single amino acid polymorphisms (SAPs) in protein sequences. However, due to the lack of efficient and convenient analysis tools, the application of SAP in public security still faces many challenges. This paper aims to meet the application requirements of SAP analysis for forensic biological evidence’s proteome data. MethodsThe software is divided into three modules. First, based on a built-in database of common non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) and SAPs in East Asian populations, the software integrates and annotates newly identified exonic nsSNPs as SAPs, thereby constructing a customized SAP protein sequence database. It then utilizes a pre-installed search engine—either pFind or MaxQuant—to perform analysis and output SAP typing results, identifying both reference and variant types, along with their corresponding imputed nsSNPs. Finally, SAPTyper compares the proteome-based typing results with the individual’s exome-derived nsSNP profile and outputs the comparison report. ResultsSAPTyper accepts proteomic DDA mass spectrometry raw data (DDA acquisition mode) and exome sequencing results of nsSNPs as input and outputs the report of SAPs result. The pFind and Maxquant search engines were used to test the proteome data of 2 hair shafts of2 individuals, and both obtained SAP results. It was found that the results of the Maxquant search engine were slightly less than those of pFind. This result shows that SAPTyper can achieve SAP fingding function. Moreover, the pFind search engine was used to test the proteome data of 3 hair shafts from 1 European person and 1 African person in the literature. Among the sites fully matched by the literature method, sites detected by SAPTyper are also included; for semi-matching sites, that is, nsSNPs are heterozygous, both literature method and SAPTyper method had the risk of missing detection for one type of the allele. Comparing the analysis results of SAPTyper with the SAP test results reported in the literature, it was found that some imputed nsSNP sites identified by the literature method but not detected by SAPTyper had a MAF of less than 0.1% in East Asian populations, and therefore they were not included in the common nsSNP database of East Asian populations constructed by this software. Since the database construction of this software is based on the genetic variation information of East Asian populations, it is currently unable to effectively identify representative unique common variation sites in European or African populations, but it can still identify SAP sites shared by these populations and East Asian populations. ConclusionAn automated SAP analysis algorithm was developed for East Asian populations, and the software named SAPTyper was developed. This software provides a convenient and efficient analysis tool for the research and application of forensic proteomic SAP and has important application prospects in individual identification and phenotypic inference based on SAP.

Objective To analyze the factors affecting the prognosis of patients with knee osteoarthritis,and to construct a nomogram prediction model in conjunction with multi-dimensional clinical indicators.Methods The clinical data of 234 pa-tients with knee osteoarthritis who were treated in our hospital from January 2015 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed,including 126 males and 108 females;age more than 60 years old for 135 cases,age less than 60 years old for 99 cases.Lysholm knee function score was used to evaluate the prognosis of the patients,and the patients were divided into good progno-sis group for 155 patients and poor prognosis group for 79 patients according to the prognosis.The clinical data of the subjects in the experimental cohort were analyzed by single factor and multiple factors.The patients were divided into experimental co-hort and verification cohort,the results of the multiple factor analysis were visualized to obtain a nomogram prediction model,the receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC),calibration curve and decision curve were used to evaluate the model's dis-crimination,accuracy and clinical benefit rate.Results The results of multivariate analysis showed that smoking,pre-treatment K-L grades of Ⅲto Ⅳ,and high levels of interleukin 6(IL-6)and matrix metallo proteinase-3(MMP-3)were risk factors for the prognosis of patients with knee osteoarthritis.ROC test results showed that the area under the curve of the nomogram model in the experimental cohort and validation cohort was 0.806[95％CI(0.742,0.866)]and 0.786[(95％CI(0.678,0.893)],re-spectively.The results of the calibration curve showed that the Brier values of the experimental cohort and verification cohort were 0.151 points and 0.134 points,respectively.When the threshold probability value in the decision curve was set to 31％,the clinical benefit rates of the experimental cohort and validation cohort were 51％and 56％,respectively.Conclusion The prognostic model of patients with knee osteoarthritis constructed based on multi-dimensional clinical data has both theoretical and practical significance,and can provide a reference for taking targeted measures to improve the prognosis of patients.

There is no effective treatment for castration-resistant prostate cancer that developed from primary prostate cancer. With the deepening research of human gastrointestinal microbiota, it indicated that all kinds of tumors including castration-resistant prostate cancer might be associated with the characteristic changes of gastrointestinal flora, and it might affect the progress of the tumor through multiple ways. The gastrointestinal microbiota of patients could promote the conversion of androgen precursors to active androgens; could participate in the regulation of thymus function and change the immune activity of the body; could provide raw materials such as glutamate and phosphatidylcholine for tumor growth and metabolism. It may also cause local or systemic inflammation in the digestive tract, and then may lead to the occurrence and development of prostate cancer and the formation of castration resistance. This article reviewed the relationship between gut microbiota and the development of castration-resistant prostate cancer from several molecular mechanisms, in order to provide clues for further research in the future.

Objective:To investigate the genetic and clinical characteristics of 46,XX testicular disorders of sex development(DSD).Methods:We collected the clinical data on the patients with 46,XX testicular DSD diagnosed in the Center of Reproductive Medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2017 to January 2023,and analyzed their genetic and clinical characteristics and the SRY gene chromosomal location for those with SRY-positive.Results:A total of 26 patients were included in this study,all with 46,XX and deletion of the AZFa,b and c regions,with a mean height of(168.3±5.9)cm,body weight of(64.0±7.5)kg,BMI of(22.66±2.79)kg/m2,left testis volume of(2.53±1.16)ml and right testis volume of(2.74 ±1.34)ml.The semen volume of the patients averaged 1.35(0.18-2.78)ml,FSH(36.85±18.01)IU/L,LH(19.71± 9.71)IU/L,and T(6.08±2.71)nmol/L.The SRY-negative patients had a higher incidence rate of development disorders in the re-productive system than the SRY-positive ones(5/6 vs 3/20,P=0.004),but no statistically significant differences were observed in the other parameters.The SRY gene was localized at the end of Xp in 13 of the 14SRY-positive cases,and at chromosome 15 in the other 1.Conclusion:46,XX testicular DSD has some similarity and heterogeneity in genetics and clinical characteristics.

The geographical origin of forensic evidence provides important information for crime investigation and solving cases,and is one of the key elements of criminal cases.Previous studies have shown significant differences in the distribution of microorganisms in different regions.Detecting environmental DNA samples and inferring the geographical and spatial sources can provide clues and evidence for case handling.However,due to the diversity of criminal environments and the trace amount of frequently encountered exhibits,stable and reliable technical methods for inferring geographical origin from environmental DNA are not yet available.This article summarizes the sample collection and DNA extraction methods for four types of environmental samples:dust,soil,water,and air.It compares the differences between amplicon sequencing and metagenomic sequencing in studying environmental biological populations,outlines the full process of high-throughput sequencing-based data analysis,and focuses on reviewing the research progress in inferring geographical sources of environmental samples based on bacteria,fungi,and other eukaryotes,to provide references for establishing sequencing and analysis methods for environmental DNA in forensic DNA laboratories and exploring environmental DNA information for forensic applications.

Immmunosuppressants are mainly used to reduce rejection after solid organ transplantation,so as to improve the success rate of organ transplantation.However,long-term use of immunosuppressants can also serious-ly impair the immune function of patients,thereby increasing the risk of viral infection and postoperative complica-tions,leading to transplant failure.Therefore,patients need to use both immunosuppressants and antiviral agents.If some immunosuppressants with antiviral effects are found,the patient's burden of taking medicines will be greatly reduced.Currently,the immunosuppressants with antiviral effect have been focused by researchers.The gradual re-vealing of the antiviral mechanism of these immunosuppressants will help to optimize the treatment plan of postope-rative rehabilitation of organ transplant recipients.Based on the mechanism of rejection of transplanted organ,this paper systematically describes the types of viruses which closely related to infection of organ transplant patients and the molecular mechanism of some immunosuppressants in antiviral aspects,which further provides a new idea for clinical prevention and treatment of viral infection due to organ transplantation.

Objective To analyze risk factors and pathogenic characteristics of intestinal colonization of carbape-nem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE)in patients from intensive care unit(ICU).Methods A total of 392 ICU pa-tients who underwent intestinal CRE screening in a tertiary hospital in Changzhou from March to December,2023 were divided into the colonization group(n=42)and the non-colonization group(n=350)according to the screening results.Clinical data of patients,including age,gender,underlying diseases,malignant tumors,radiotherapy,chemotherapy,infection before the last screening,antimicrobial use,and invasive procedures were collected for the analysis on risk factors and pathogenicity.Results Among 42 patients with positive CRE screening results,44 CRE strains were detected,mainly Klebsiella pneumoniae(65.91％),followed by Escherichia coli(15.91％)and En-terobacter cloacae(13.64％).The average time from admission in ICU to positive screening results of intestinal CRE in the colonization group was 14 days.Long term use of carbapenem antibiotics(OR=1.47,95％CI:1.31-1.65),mechanical ventilation(OR=1.14,95％CI:1.06-1.22),and Enterobacterales infection(OR=10.10,95％CI:3.28-32.09)were independent risk factors for intestinal CRE colonization.Patients who received carbap-enem antibiotics for ≥15 days(x2=167.52,P＜0.001)and those who received mechanical ventilation for ≥15 days(x2=101.03,P＜0.001)had higher risks for intestinal CRE colonization.Conclusion In clinical practice,it is necessary to improve pathogen detection,treat Enterobacterales infection timely,choose carbapenem antibiotics carefully,shorten treatment course,actively evaluate indications for mechanical ventilation,and wean off ventilator timely.
