Hyperthyroidism （HT） is frequently complicated by atrial fibrillation （AF） in clinical practice. Based on traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） zang-xiang （藏象） theory and clinical experience， both HT and AF are closely associated with dysfunction of the liver. The pathogenesis is initiated by the liver failing to govern the free flow of qi， and liver constraint and qi stagnation， with the key turning points being liver constraint transforming into fire and the internal stirring of liver wind， ultimately leading to liver blood depletion and insufficient nourishment of the heart spirit. Thus， it is proposed to treat the disease from the liver， with stage-specific therapeutic approaches according to the evolution of the disease. In the early stage， the treatment should focus on soothing the liver and relieving constraint to reduce goiter and calm the heart， while in the progressive stage， the method of clearing liver and draining fire is suggested to subdue yang and stabilize palpitations. In the acute stage， the strategy is calming the liver and nourishing yin to subdue yang and extinguish wind. In the later stage， it is suggested to soften the liver and benefit qi， so as to nourish yin and restore pulse. These methods are sequentially applied to synergistically reduce goiter and stabilize palpitations， providing a therapeutic approach for HT complicated by AF.

Objective To investigate the prognostic value of tissue plasminogen activator-inhibitor complex(tPAIC)for mortality in patients with sepsis associated thrombocytopenia(SAT).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 74 patients with SAT admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of the 908th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force of PLA between Septem-ber 2017 and December 2021.Based on 28-day follow-up for outcomes,the patients were divided into survival group(43 cases)and death group(31 cases).The Boruta algorithm based on random forest and Lasso regression algorithm were used to screen the risk fac-tors from a total of 29 candidate variables,including age,sex,SOFA score on admission,APACHE Ⅱ score,and various hematological indexes,(e.g.,white blood cell count).The time-dependent receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves and the survival analysis were performed for the key variables identified.Results Compared with the survival group,the nonsurvivors in death group had signif-icantly higher SOFA and APACHE Ⅱ scores.The levels of thrombomodulin(TM),thrombin-antithrombin complex(TAT),and tissue plasminogen activator inhibitor complex(tPAIC)were also markedly elevated in death group(P＜0.05).Similarly,PT,APTT,TT,FDP,and D-dimer in the death group were significantly higher than those in survivalroup,whereas the fibrinogen levels were signifi-cantly decreased(P＜0.05).The levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),total bilirubin(T-Bil),and lactate(Lac)levels were likewise significantly elevated in the death group.Random forest and Lasso regression analysis identified SOFA score,tPAIC,INR,and Lac as the independent risk factors of mortality in the patients with sepsis-associated thrombo-cytopenia(SAT)patients.Time-dependent ROC curve analysis showed that a higher C-index and average area under the curve(AUC)in tPAIC than any other variables for predicting the prognosis of SAT patients.Kaplan-Meier survival analysis stratified by the optimal cutoff value of tPAIC(38.9 ng/mL)revealed that a 2.31-fold higher 28-day survival rate in the patients with tPAIC＜38.9 ng/mL group compared those with tPAIC ≥38.9 ng/mL.Conclusion tPAIC demonstrates significant predictive value for mortality in SAT patients.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors and implementation paths of medical and preventive integration of chronic disease in county medical communities (CMCs), providing references for further promoting the integration of medical and prevention and improving the collaborative mechanism of medical and prevention.Methods:From October to November 2023, based on the principle of geographically balanced sampling, medical staff from 6 leading hospitals and 18 other member units of 6 CMCs in Zhejiang Province were selected as survey subjects. A self-designed survey questionnaire was conducted, mainly including the development and evaluation of chronic disease medical and preventive integration services in CMCs. The service development was designed according to the collaborative symbiosis management model, including 4 dimensions of collaborative symbiosis scenarios, willingness, ability, and process, as well as 11 secondary elements. Using secondary elements as the conditional variables and the integration effect of chronic disease medical and prevention as the outcome variable, a qualitative comparative analysis method was used to explore the relationship between multiple conditional variables and their combinations with high integration effect of chronic disease medical and prevention.Results:571 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 96.62%. The consistency of a single secondary element(including conditional non sets) on the high effectiveness of medical and preventive integration was less than 0.9, which cannot constitute a necessary condition for explaining the outcome variable. The configuration analysis results showed that the consistency of the condition combination formed by the interaction of multiple secondary elements was 0.835-0.845, indicating that the condition combination of multiple elements constituted a sufficient non necessary condition for the high integration effect of chronic disease medical and prevention. The configuration path for achieving high integration of medical and preventive effects could be divided into four categories, among which the feature of scenario-process dominance was to create a perfect service scenario and service process as the main focus; The characteristic of the willingness-process dominant type was to stimulate the service willingness of medical staff and improve the service process as the leading factor; The characteristic of the scenario-willingness-ability dominant type was to create a comprehensive service scenario, stimulate the service willingness of medical staff, and enhance service capabilities as the main focus; The characteristic of the willingness-ability-process dominant type was to stimulate the service willingness of medical staff, enhance service capabilities, and improve the service process as the dominant factor. In addition, the four types of configuration paths mentioned above all covered the two secondary elements of endogenous dynamics and professional competence, with a total coverage of 0.626 and a total consistency of 0.821.Conclusions:The configuration path formed through the interaction of multiple elements can effectively achieve the integration of chronic disease medical and prevention. The CMCs should choose the appropriate configuration path based on the actual situation. In addition, special attention should be paid to the endogenous motivation and professional capacity building of medical staff.

Objective:To investigate the accurate diagnosis and differential diagnosis of non-primary solid malignant tumors in breast needle core biopsy.Methods:Twenty-three cases of breast, axilla or neck lymph nodes pathologically diagnosed as non-primary solid malignant tumors were collected at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing, China from January 2013 to March 2023. The differential diagnoses and diagnostic features were analyzed, based on combining clinical data, histology, and expression characteristics of biomarkers.Results:All patients were female, with age ranging from 29 to 75 years (average 56 years). The average time from the diagnosis of primary tumor to the current diagnosis was 21 months (0 to 204 months).The primary sites included the ovary (9 cases), the lung (5 cases), the gastrointestinal tract (4 cases), the pancreas, intrahepatic bile duct, thyroid gland, nasal cavity and forearm skin (1 case each). No carcinoma in situ was found in any of the cases. The morphological differences were significant among the tumors, but similar to the primary tumors. The tumors of neuroendocrine and female reproductive tract had great morphological and immunophenotypic overlaps with breast cancer. Metastatic lung cancer cells showed obvious atypia and tumor giant cells. The morphology and immunophenotype of metastatic serous carcinoma of female reproductive system might resemble invasive micropapillary carcinoma of the breast. Metastatic adenocarcinoma of the gastrointestinal tract often had features of mucous secretion. Metastatic neuroendocrine tumors were bland in appearance and morphologically similar to solid papillary carcinoma of breast, but negative for ER. TRPS1 was mostly negative (18/23) and variably positive in ovarian (4/9) and intrahepatic bile duct (1/1) tumors.Conclusions:The diagnosis of breast needle core biopsy specimen should be combined with clinical history, imaging study, and careful examination of histological features, such as presence of in situ component, morphological similarity between the primary and metastatic tumors, and using appropriate markers to differentiate the primary from metastatic tumors.

The traditional experimental teaching mode of forensic science and biological evidence is mostly confined to experimental operation, which is not capable of cultivating students' comprehensive quality and post competency. Therefore, it is urgent to seek an innovative teaching and training mode. At present, the experimental teaching of forensic science and biological evidence is dominated by teachers. There are some problems, such as insufficient training of students' scientific thinking and innovation ability, single teaching and evaluation model, and disconnection from the practical application. This paper proposes an experimental teaching design scheme of forensic science and biological evidence based on post competency training. The course is implanted in the framework of simulated cases, and the virtual simulation experiment platform and group discussion learning method are used to achieve a training model oriented by social needs and centered on students. In the preliminary study on the students who were trained in this mode of selected sections, we found that, compared with traditional teaching, the time for students to complete the prescribed experimental operation in this teaching mode was shortened by 4 minutes on average, and the average score of theoretical course test case analysis questions was increased by 1.5 points. In conclusion, the instructional design of the experiment teaching forensic science and biological evidence can effectively improve students' post-competency, and it deserves further exploration and application.
