OBJECTIVE To explore the value of microbiological rapid on-site evaluation(M-ROSE)technique in treatment of the patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia(SCAP).METHODS A total of 124 patients with SCAP who were treated in the department of respiratory and critical care medicine of The Fourth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from Sep.2023 to Dec.2024 were enrolled in the study and were random-ly divided into the M-ROSE group and the control group in a 1∶1 ratio based on the status of M-ROSE for bron-choalveolar lavage fluid(BALF).The M-ROSE test and conventional etiological test[metagenomic next genera-tion sequencing(mNGS),smear,culture]were performed for the M-ROSE group,and the conventional etiologi-cal test was only carried out for the control group.The baseline data,symptoms and signs,C-reactive protein lev-el,treatment status and outcomes were observed and compared between the two groups of patients.RESULTS A-mong the 62 patients for whom the BALF specimens were detected with M-ROSE,45(72.58％)patients showed the consistent test result for fungi with mNGS,47(75.81％)patients showed the same test result for cocci with mNGS,and 30(48.39％)patients showed the same test result for bacilli with mNGS.The duration of the M-ROSE test was 1.50(1.50,2.00)h,shorter than that of the smear,culture and mNGS(P＜0.05).The body temperature returning to the normal and the property,volume of sputum were improved more early in days in the M-ROSE group than in the control group after the anti-infection treatment(P＜0.05);the level of inflammatory factor CRP declined more quickly in the M-ROSE group than in the control group(P＜0.05);the effective rates of treatment of the M-ROSE group were higher than those of the control group after the hospitalization for 3,5 and 7 days(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION The M-ROSE test for BALF may facilitate the rapid etiological diagnosis for the patients with SCAP in early stage,provide guidance for the anti-infection treatment strategies,and accelerate the improvement of symptoms and inflammatory factors;it has certain clinical application value.

Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy(RAPN),as a minimally invasive surgical technique,has demonstrated significant advancements in recent years for treating complex renal tumors with precision and safety.This article systematically reviews the technical advantages of RAPN compared to laparoscopic partial nephrectomy(LPN)in terms of shortening the ischemia time and protecting renal function;it elaborates on the expansion of indications,the application of emerging technologies(mixed reality,artificial intelligence,imaging navigation during surgery),and surgical innovations(self-fixation suture technique,zero ischemia technique).The clinical efficacy of RAPN in treating renal hilar tumors,complete endophytic tumors,multifocal tumors,and solitary kidney tumors is also evaluated.RAPN,through technological innovation and multidisciplinary integration,provides a more optimized minimally invasive treatment option for complex renal tumors,but in the future,it is still necessary to optimize the prediction of intraoperative complications and long-term renal function protection strategies.

Objective By applying the long short-term memory(LSTM)neural network model and using lower body landmark coordinates obtained from a markerless motion capture system as inputs,to estimate ground reaction force(GRF)curves during running.Methods The video images and GRF data of 59 amateur runners during running were collected by the markerless motion capture system and three-dimensional(3D)force plates.The LSTM model was established,and the 3D coordinates of 11 lower body landmarks,obtained via the Theia3D markerless system,were used as inputs to estimate the 3D GRF curves during the stance of running.The estimation performance was evaluated using correlation coefficients r,root mean square error(RMSE),and normalized root mean square error(nRMSE)by comparing LSTM model estimation and force plate measurement.Statistical parametric mapping was used to analyze differences in GRF curves estimated by the LSTM model and measured by the force plate,while paired t-tests were used to assess differences in GRF characteristics between model estimation and actual measurement.Results A strong correlation(r＞0.85,P＜0.001)and lower error(RMSE＜0.3 body weight,nRMSE＜15％)was found between the LSTM model estimation and actual measurements.No significant difference was found in GRF curve intervals between LSTM model estimation and actual measurements.There was no significant difference in GRF characteristics between LSTM model estimation and actual measurements(P＞0.05).Conclusions Based on the LSTM model,the 3D GRF curves can be effectively estimated by lower body landmark coordinates obtained from the makerless motion capture system,thereby acquiring the highly accurate GRF characteristics.The LSTM model developed in this study can be used to monitor injury risks during running in outdoor environments.

Objective:To compare the differential regulatory effects of corticotropin releasing hormone(CRH)neu-rons in periaqueductal gray(PAG)and medial preoptic area(MPA)downstream of paraventricular nucleus(PVN)in mediating stress-related abnormal behaviors.Methods:The anterograde labeled virus AAV2/9-hSyn-DIO-hChR2-EYFP and AAV2/9-mCrh-SV40 NLS-Cre was injected into the PVN brain region of mouse,and the projection distribution of PVN axons in the PAG and MPA brain regions was observed after statistical analysis of its projection distribution through Image J.The optogenetic inhibitory virus mixture of AAV2/9-DIO-stGtACR2-EGFP and AAV2/9-mCrh-SV40 NLS-Cre targeting CRH neurons was injected into the PAG and MPA brain regions receiving the corresponding PVN projection,respectively,and the CRH neurons in the PAG and MPA brain regions were inhibited by optogenetic blue light 460 nm to observe the anxiety-related behaviors of mice under acute restraint stress.Results:Densely distributed CRHergic PVN axon terminals were observed in PAG and MPA brain regions.Optogenetic inhibition of CRH neurons in the PAG region of acute stress mice showed no significant change in social preference behavior.The eating latency decreased in the novelty-suppressed feeding test,and the escape latency increased under visual fear stimulation.Optogenetic inhibi-tion of CRH neurons in the MPA brain region showed no significant change in social preference,significantly decreased eating latency in the novelty-suppressed feeding test,and no significant change in escape latency under visual fear stim-ulation.Conclusion:CRH neurons in PAG and MPA brain regions downstream of PVN have differential regulation in a-cute stress-related anxiety behavior,but no difference in social behavior regulation,which provides theoretical support and basis for in-depth exploration of stress-related brain regions and cellular mechanisms.

Objective:To analyze and summarize the efficacy and safety of thalidomide in the treatment of refractory systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis（sJIA）.Methods:The clinical data of ten patients with refractory sJIA admitted to Department of Nephrology and Immunology in Children's Hospital of Hebei Province from January 2015 to March 2022 were collected，and the clinical manifestations，efficacy and safety of thalidomide in the treatment of refractory sJIA were analyzed retrospectively. Systemic juvenile arthritis disease activity score（sJADAS）was used to evaluate the efficacy of the treatment. Statistical analysis was performed by repeated measurements using general linear models.Results:Among the 10 children（4 males and 6 females）with refractory sJIA，the average age of onset was（7.5±3.3）years. Seven patients were complicated with macrophage activation syndrome at an early stage of disease.The average course of disease was（4.4±1.7）years，and the longest course of disease was 8.3 years. Before the application of thalidomide，all the 10 children experienced relapses（ranging from 2 to 10 times）. The indices of 10 children treated with thalidomide at 6 months and 12 months were compared with those before treatment. Peripheral blood leukocytes［（10.19±3.67）×10 9/L，（8.53±2.83）×10 9/L vs.（16.11±7.81）×10 9/L， F=7.918，11.084， P=0.020，0.009］，C-reactive protein［19.13（0.38，35.21）mg/L，8.05（0.10，18.00）mg/L vs. 59.34（24.20，131.90）mg/L， F=7.030，12.731， P=0.026，0.006］，sJADAS scores［6.00（1.50，12.50）scores，3.00（0，12.50）scores vs. 20.00（11.50，28.00）scores， F=14.710，17.870， P=0.004，0.002］were decreased significantly. The doses of prednisone［0.13（0，0.45）mg/（kg·d），0.02（0，0.06）mg/（kg·d）vs. 0.42（0.16，1.47）mg/（kg·d）， F=5.890，7.623， P=0.041，0.022］were significantly decreased.All the differences were statistically significant. Prednisone was successfully discontinued in 7 cases. Tocilizumab was gradually withdrawn in 3 cases，and tocilizumab administration interval was prolonged in 1 case. None of the 10 children had serious adverse reactions. Conclusion:Thalidomide is clinically effective in the treatment of sJIA，and can reduce the required dose of prednisone and prolong the tocilizumab free remission.

Objective:To understand the cognition of the family caregivers of terminal cancer patients on digital health intervention, to clarify their actual needs, and to analyze the obstacles to their acceptance of digital health intervention, so as to develop a digital health intervention plan for the family caregivers of terminal cancer patients.Methods:From February 2024 to March 2024, the family caregivers of 16 patients with terminal cancer in Hunan Cancer Hospital Pain Hospice Ward were selected by objective sampling, who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were interviewed in a semi-structured manner about the cognition and needs of digital health intervention, and the interview contents were sorted and analyzed using the Colaizzi7 step method.Results:A total of 16 family caregivers of terminal cancer patients, 4 males and 12 females, aged 26-55 years, were interviewed. Four themes were distilled from the interview results: family caregivers of terminally cancer patients agree on the importance of digital health interventions; lack of awareness of digital health interventions; expectations of digital health interventions; and possible confounders affecting digital health interventions.Conclusions:The family caregivers of terminal cancer patients had insufficient awareness of digital health intervention, but all showed affirmation of the development of digital health intervention services. It is recommended to actively improve the basic conditions of digital health services, strengthen publicity, raise the level of awareness of the family caregivers, and positively overcome the relevant interfering factors, so as to gradually promote the development of digital health services.
