This review provides an overview of prenatal interventional treatments for fetal congenital heart disease (CHD), with a particular focus on the latest advancements in fetal aortic valvuloplasty (FAV) and fetal pulmonary valvuloplasty (FPV). FAV aims to improve left heart hemodynamics, prevent hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), and promote biventricular circulation. FPV seeks to improve the natural history of pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PA/IVS) and critical pulmonary stenosis with intact ventricular septum (CPS/IVS), alleviate right ventricular outflow tract obstruction, and promote biventricular circulation. This article discusses patient selection, technical details, risk assessment, and clinical outcomes for these procedures, highlighting the challenges in current research, including the lack of standardized patient selection criteria and long-term prognostic studies. Additionally, it emphasizes the opportunities and challenges of fetal cardiac intervention (FCI) development in China and proposes recommendations for future improvements and research directions.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the clinical characteristics of the 12 patients tested with Candida auris in a three-A hospital so as to provide guidance for prevention and control of nosocomial C.auris infection.METHODS The specimens sources and departments where the C.auris strains were isolated as well as the drug resistance were retrospectively collected from Zhongda Hospital Affiliated to Southeast University between Sep.2023 and Jun.2024.The clinical characteristics of the patients with C.auris infection were summarized.The epidemiological survey was conducted for the possibility of its transmission in hospitals,and the corresponding modified preven-tion measures were put forward.RESULTS Among the 12 patients who were tested with C.auris,10 were male,and 2 were female;the age ranged between 21 and 92 years old.Most of the patients were complicated with multi-ple underlying diseases and had the history of repeated hospitalization as well as the history of invasive operation procedures such as tracheotomy,urinary catheterization,gastric tube indwelling and venoarterial catheterization;in the meantime,other multidrug-resistant organisms(MDROs)and fungi were tested in those patients,and the patients used multiple types of antibiotics.Totally 16 strains of C.auris were isolated from the 12 patients with C.auris tested,62.50%(10/16)of which were isolated from urine specimens,18.75%(3/16)were isolated from sputum specimens,and 6.25%(1/16)were isolated from deep venous catheter,tissue biopsy and wound swab specimens.All of the 16 strains of C.auris were resistant to fluconazole and sensitive to caspofungin;4 strains were resistant to amphotericin B.Totally 2 patients had Candida auris infection,one was pulmonary infection,and the other was urinary tract infection,and the infection rate was 16.67%;both patients were cured.There were 10 cases of colonization,and the colonization rate was 83.33%.The result of epidemiological survey indicated that the C.auris that was tested in the No.8 patient may originate from the No.4 patient who carelessly brought from outside the hospital due to poor implementation of standardized prevention measures.CONCLUSIONS The patients tested with C.auris usually have complicated medical backgrounds.Although the colonized C.auris strains are dominant among the strains in the hospital,the related departments need to intensify the implementation of pre-vention measures so as to prevent the transmission of C.auris and pay special attention to the early identification and management of imported pathogens.

Surgical innovation is an important part of surgical research and practice. The evaluation of surgical innovation through the stages is similar to those for drug development, but with important differences. The Idea, Development, Exploration, Assessment, and Long-term follow-up (IDEAL) Framework and Recommendations represent a new paradigm for the evaluation of surgical intervention and devices which was developed in 2009. The IDEAL is a five-stage framework involving the nature stages of surgical innovation, together with recommendations for surgical research pathway. The Framework and Recommendations were updated and published in 2019, which added a pre-IDEAL stage if necessary. The updated IDEAL also underlines the purpose, key question and ethical issues for each stage. In the first paper of IDEAL Framework and Recommendations series, we conducted a comprehensive introduction of IDEAL (e.g. the development, updates and application of IDEAL) to promote the dissemination and application of IDEAL in China.

Adherence to reporting guidelines contributes to report methodology and outcomes of research distinctly and transparently. There are some checklists with specific study types related to surgery on the EQUATOR Network’s website. However, the IDEAL framework focuses on stepwise evaluation of surgical innovation through all stages with some key elements, which those existing guidelines may not mention. This likely results in the inaccuracy in reporting in studies attempting to follow the IDEAL recommendations and suggests a pressing need for IDEAL reporting guidelines. Considering these limitations, the IDEAL developed the IDEAL reporting guidelines between October 2018 and May 2019. The paper aimed to provide interpretation of IDEAL reporting guideline, and promote its understanding and use among Chinese researchers.

Objective To make analysis and diagnosis on backhand twist technique used by player A, who is the leading men’s player of national table tennis team, so as to provide references for improving his backhand twist technique. Methods The three-dimensional kinematics test and analysis were used. The backhand twist techniques of player A and those of player B who has good backhand twist techniques were compared by quantitative data and picture analysis. Results At the stage of swinging racket backward, the racket swing amplitude, shoulder angle and wrist angle of player A were significantly smaller than those of player B. The roll angle of trunk of player A was significantly larger than that of player B. At the stage of swinging and hitting the ball, the shoulder angle, elbow angle of player A were significantly bigger than those of player B, while the increasing amplitude of shoulder angle and elbow angle, as well as the changing amplitude in roll angle of trunk of Lin Guoyuan were significantly smaller than those of player B. At the stage of swinging racket forward, the shoulder angle and elbow angle of player A were significantly bigger than those of player B. The increasing amplitude of shoulder angle and elbow angle, as well as the roll angle of trunk and its changing amplitude of player A were significantly smaller than those of player B. Conclusions The racket swing amplitude of player A was smaller, and the distance between the racket and the ball of player A was close at the end of swinging racket backward stage. During swinging and hitting the ball stage, the hitting point was far from the body, the shoulder joint was not stable enough to support, so that the wrist was used more. The center of gravity was not enough to force forward, and the outburst power was not concentrated. At swinging racket forward stage, player A’s braking was not active enough, which affected the stability of hitting the ball. At hitting the ball stage, the torsion of the trunk was smaller, and the waist power was not concentrated. On the basis of unaffecting the forehand outburst power, player A should slightly adjust his backhand twisting technique, or appropriately increase the the racket swing amplitude and torsion of the body. In the process of hitting the ball, the sequence of outburst power was the waist, the forearm and the wrist.
