Objective:To investigate the completion rate of tumor evaluation at initial assessment and after neoadjuvant therapy for mid and low rectal cancer patients in the national multicenter real-world database.Methods:The prospective real-world study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 1 074 patients who underwent surgical treatment for mid and low rectal cancer in 47 national medical institutions, including Peking Union Medical College Hospital et al, from May 12,2023 to May 11,2024 were collected. Observation indicators: (1) clinical characteristics of patients with mid and low rectal cancer; (2) initial colonoscopy and pathologic evaluation of tumors in patients with mid and low rectal cancer; (3) initial imaging evaluation of patients with mid and low rectal cancer; (4) imaging evaluation after neoadjuvant therapy for patients with mid and low rectal cancer. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3). Count data were described as absoluter numbers and/or percentages. Results:(1) Clinical characteristics of patients with mid and low rectal cancer. Of the 1 074 patients, there were 713 males and 361 females, aged 63(56,70)years. The body mass index of 1 074 patients was 24(21,26)kg/m 2.For American Society of Anesthesiologists classification, there were 147 cases of stage Ⅰ, 641 cases of stage Ⅱ, 157 cases of stage Ⅲ, 2 cases of stage Ⅳ, and there were 127 cases missing data. (2) Initial colonoscopy and pathologic evaluation of tumors in patients with mid and low rectal cancer. Of the 1 074 patients, there were 787 cases (73.28%) undergoing complete colonoscopy, and there were only 197 cases (18.34%) undergoing immunohistochemical evaluation of all four mismatch repair proteins. (3) Initial imaging evaluation of patients with mid and low rectal cancer. Of the 1 074 patients, there were 842(78.40%) patients completing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or ultrasound evaluation, and there were 914(85.10%) patients completing chest, abdomen, and pelvis enhanced computed tomography (CT) evaluation. In the 149 patients completing rectal ultrasound evaluation, there were 122 cases (81.88%) comple-ting T staging evaluation, and there were 81 cases (54.36%) completing N staging evaluation.

In the 327 patients completing rectal MRI evaluation, there were 246 cases (75.23%) completing T staging, and there were 228 cases (69.72%) completing N staging evaluation. Conclusion:The com-pletion rate of tumor imaging evaluation at initial assessment and after neoadjuvant therapy for mid and low rectal cancer patients on a national scale is relatively good.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

AIM To explore the clinical effects of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge combined with indobufen on restenosis in patients with autologous arteriovenous fistula after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty(PTA).METHODS Sixty-five patients were randomly assigned into control group(32 cases)for administration of indobufen,and observation group(33 cases)for administration of both Danshen Tablets and indobufen.The changes in internal fistula diameter,internal fistula blood flow,platelet aggregation rate,coagulation function indices(APTT,PT,TT,FIB),inflammatory factors(IL-6,IL-1β,TNF-α),restenosis rate and incidence of adverse reactions were detected.RESULTS At 3,6 months after surgery,the observation group demonstrated bigger internal fistula diameter and internal fistula blood flow than the control group(P＜0.05).At 6 months after surgery,the two groups displayed decreased platelet aggregation rate,FIB,inflammatory factors(P＜0.05),and prolonged APTT,PT,TT(P＜0.05),especially for the observation group(P＜0.05).No significant differences in restenosis rate and incidence of adverse reactions were found between the two groups(P＞0.05).CONCLUSION For the patients with autologous arteriovenous fistula after PTA,S.miltiorrhiza combined with indobufen can safely and effectively inhibit the reduced progresses of internal fistula diameter and internal fistula blood flow,maintenance the patency of internal fistula,and alleviate platelet aggregation and body inflammatory responses.

Objective To understand the facilitating and obstacle factors for pediatric nurses in implementing interventions for children's medical fears and to provide a foundation for exploring intervention strategies for pediatric nurses to effectively tackle children's medical fears.Methods By purposive sampling,face-to-face interviews were conducted with 20 pediatric nurses in a tertiary-level A children's hospital in Wenzhou City from December 2023 to February 2024.Traditional content analysis was used for data analysis.Results Facilitators and obstacle factors to the implementation of medical fear interventions by pediatric nurses were extracted.The 4 sub-themes of the facilitator theme include awareness of the importance of medical fear intervention,the drive of individual empathy,positive peer support,and the construction of a suitable hospital environment.The 3 sub-themes of the obstacle theme include the lack of individualized intervention skills for medical fear,heavy workload,interference from negative emotional behavior of family members.Conclusion There are many factors influencing paediatric nurses to implement medical fear interventions for children.It is recommended that clinical nursing administrators should strengthen the systematic training of pediatric nurses'knowledge about medical fear interventions for children,unite with multidisciplinary experts,and recruit medical social workers or volunteers to collaborate with nurses and children's families to cope with children's medical fears together and to promote physical and mental health of hospitalized children.

This consensus was developed by the Orthodontic Society of the Chinese Stomatological Association to provide a systematic, scientific, and practical guideline for informed consent in orthodontic care. Orthodontic treatment is typically lengthy, highly individualized, and involves multiple factors such as growth and development, occlusal function, and facial esthetics. Rapid technological advances and diverse risk profiles make the traditional reliance on orthodontist experience or institutional templates insufficient to ensure patients′ full understanding and autonomous decision-making. To address this, the expert panel conducted extensive reviews of domestic and international guidelines, analyzed representative dispute cases, and performed multicenter patient-clinician surveys. Using a multi-round Delphi method, the group established a standardized informed consent framework covering the initial consultation, treatment, and retention phases. The consensus emphasizes that informed consent is not only a fundamental legal and ethical requirement but also a key step in building trust, improving patient compliance, and enhancing treatment satisfaction. Orthodontists should clearly and comprehensively explain treatment plans, potential risks, uncertainties, and associated costs, while respecting the autonomy of patients or guardians, and maintain continuous communication and dynamic evaluation throughout the treatment process. The release of this consensus provides unified and authoritative guidance for clinical orthodontics, helping to standardize informed consent, enhance its transparency, safeguard patient rights, reduce medical risks, and promote high-quality, sustainable development of orthodontic practice.

Objective To analyze the serum metabolomic changes of preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)at postmenstrual age(PMA)36 weeks,screen potential biomarkers and associated metabolic pathways,and assess their relationship with short-term respiratory outcomes.Methods A retrospective case-control study was conducted.Infants with gestational age 28-32 weeks admitted to the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from January to December 2024 were included.Twenty infants with BPD and 20 gestational age-,birth weight-,and sex-matched non-BPD preterm infants were included.Serum collected at PMA 36 weeks was subjected to untargeted metabolomics analysis,and associations with short-term respiratory outcomes were analyzed.Results Thirteen potential biomarkers distinguishing BPD were identified(area under the curve>0.75,P<0.05).Eight biomarkers—including terephthalic acid,phosphatidylinositol,fumarate,and lysophosphatidic acid—were significantly upregulated(FC≥1.5),while five biomarkers,such as 7α-hydroxy-3-oxo-4-cholestenoate ester and phosphatidylcholine,were significantly downregulated(FC≤1/1.5).Pathway analysis indicated five pathways associated with BPD,including glycerophospholipid metabolism and phenylalanine metabolism.Dysregulation of glycerophospholipid and bile acid metabolism may affect adverse short-term respiratory outcomes in infants with BPD.Conclusions The 13 significantly different metabolites may serve as biomarkers for the diagnosis of BPD.Glycerophospholipid metabolism is associated with the occurrence of BPD and with adverse short-term respiratory outcomes.

AIM:To evaluate the effects of liposo-mal bupivacaine for interscalene brachial plexus block on postoperative analgesia and diaphragmat-ic function in patients undergoing arthroscopic ro-tator cuff repair surgery based on a randomized controlled trial.METHODS:Forty patients who scheduled to undergo arthroscopic rotator cuff re-pair surgery,regardless of gender,aged 18 to 65 years,ASA grade Ⅰ or Ⅱ were selected from October 2023 to February 2024.The patients were random-ly divided into bupivacaine liposome group(group LB)and the levobupivacaine group(group BV),with 20 cases in each group.Patients in both groups re-ceived an ultrasound-guided interscalene brachial plexus block,15 mL mixed liquids(bupivacaine lipo-some 10 mL+0.5％levobupivacaine 10 mL)were in-jected into the level of C5-C6 nerve roots and 5 mL onto the surface of prevertebral fascia in the LB group,and same volume of 0.375％levobupiva-caine were injected at the same sites in the BV group respectively.Standardized general anesthe-sia and standardized postoperative analgesia were followed.The primary outcome measures included 48 h rest/motor numerical rating scale(NRS)scores after surgery and the incidence of hemidiaphrag-matic paralysis(HDP)after block.The secondary outcome measures included rest/motor NRS scores at other time points after surgery,pulse oxygen sat-uration(SpO2)30 min after block,duration of sen-sory and motor block,number of analgesic pump presses,time of first postoperative used of opioid drugs and opioid consumption,use of additional analgesics in the wards,satisfaction with analgesia,and the occurrence of perioperative adverse ef-fects and neurological complications.RESULTS:Compared with group BV,patients in LB group showed lower rest NRS scores at 48 h postopera-tion(P＜0.05)and higher incidence of HDP at 24 h after block(45％vs.5.3％,P＜0.05).However,there was no significant difference in motor NRS scores at 48 h,HDP incidence at 30 min and 6 h after block between the two groups(P＞0.05).Both groups showed a decrease in SpO2 after block com-pared to before block(P＜0.05).Compared with BV group,patients in LB group had a significantly lon-ger duration of sensory and motor block(P＜0.01),fewer effective presses with the analgesic pump(P＜0.01),delay in first opioid use and less opioid con-sumption(P＜0.05),higher level of satisfaction with analgesia(P＜0.01),and a lower rate of use of addi-tional analgesics in the ward(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the total in-traoperative remifentanil consumption,incidence of perioperative adverse reactions and neurological complication between the two groups(P＞0.05).CONCLUSION:Compared with using levobupiva-caine alone,the addition of liposomal bupivacaine for interscalene brachial plexus block in arthroscop-ic rotator cuff repair can reduce postoperative NRS scores,decrease postoperative opioid dosage and significantly prolong blockduration,but can easily lead to longer duration of HDP in patients.
