Neurocritical care involves complex pathophysiological mechanisms, and its incidence is higher, injuries are more severe, and treatment is more challenging in high-altitude environments. This consensus, based on the latest domestic and international evidence-based medical data, establishes a standardized, goal-oriented framework for neurocritical care management applicable in high-altitude regions and nationwide. The consensus was developed following international standards for evidence quality assessment and underwent two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, resulting in 32 recommendation statements covering three parts: management systems, monitoring and assessment, and core strategies. Key updates include: advocating for the establishment of independent neurocritical care units and implementing precise tiered diagnosis and treatment based on the "Five Differences in Critical Care" concept; constructing a "trinity" multimodal brain monitoring system centered on cerebral blood flow, cerebral oxygenation, and brain function, emphasizing routine bedside transcranial Doppler ultrasound, cerebral oximetry, and continuous electroencephalography monitoring; shifting management strategies from mild hypothermia therapy to targeted temperature management, and defining the "446" target management pathway for the supercritical stage; emphasizing the assessment of static and dynamic cerebrovascular autoregulation functions through multimodal methods to achieve individualized optimal mean arterial pressure management; elevating cerebrospinal fluid management goals to the level of "glymphatic system" function maintenance; implementing a multidisciplinary collaborative, whole-process management model focusing on patients' long-term neurological functional outcomes; de-escalation criteria include multidimensional indicators such as recovery of brain structure, restoration of cerebrovascular autoregulation, improvement in cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, and reduction in biomarker levels; and integrating cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence into post-critical care management and rehabilitation planning. This consensus systematically integrates the entire process of neurocritical care management, reflecting the modern connotation of goal-oriented, dynamic, and multimodal integration in neurocritical care medicine. It aims to adapt to new trends such as deepening understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms, the integration of medicine and engineering, and the empowerment of artificial intelligence, thereby further advancing the discipline of critical care medicine.

Objective This study reports on the obligatory parasitism of water mites Arrenurus sp. on Anopheles messeae at the Manzhouli Port, Inner Mongolia, China. Methods Duing July 2024, a survey on the mosquito diversity was conducted at the Manzhouli Port. Captured mosquitoes and their ectoparasites were identified to species level. Results A total of 1840 adult mosquitoes were collected, representing species from three genera: Culex(Cx. modestus, Cx. pipiens pallens), Aedes(Ae. dorsalis, Ae. flavidorsalis, Ae. flavescens), and Anopheles (An. messeae). Among all the mosqutioes specimens,3 out of 150 captured An. messeae were found to carry ectoparasitic mites, with number of 2,4,27 mites separately. Morphological and molecular identification reached the same result as water mites(Hydrachnidiae, Hydracrina). COI gene sequence showed 94% similarity with the closest species Arrenurus truncatellus. Conlusions Literature review suggests water mites are host-specific parasitism of mosquito species and herein with the first record of Arrenurus sp. parasiting on An. Messeae in the most high-latitude region globally.

Doctor digital twins， as a significant innovative form within the medical metaverse， integrate technologies such as large language models， natural language processing and multimodal learning. They can simulate doctors’ appearance， language style， and certain clinical reasoning， realizing diverse applications such as medical knowledge dissemination， intelligent consultation， health management， and medical education. While enhancing the accessibility and intelligence of healthcare services， doctor digital twins also give rise to multidimensional ethical challenges， such as data security and privacy breaches， algorithmic black box and bias， a crisis of doctor-patient trust， weakening of doctors’ subjectivity， and ambiguities in legal responsibility. This paper systematically reviewed the core concepts and current application status of doctor digital twins， constructing a tripartite analytical dimension centered on “technology， doctor-patient relationship， and law.” It focused on pivotal ethical issues encountered in practical application， including data security， patient informed consent and trust， legal responsibility delineation， and others. These aimed to provide ethical guidance and theoretical support for the sustainable development of doctor digital twins， promote the deep integration of smart healthcare and humanistic care， as well as contribute to building a safer， more trustworthy， and sustainable intelligent healthcare system.

Objective To explore the anesthesia management experience in the interventional treatment of pediatric congenital heart diseases (CHD) percutaneously guided by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) on a mobile operating platform. Methods From March to July 2023, a total of 13 patients from remote areas underwent interventional treatment for CHD on the mobile operating platform of Fuwai Yunnan Cardiovascular Hospital. Patients who received non-tracheal intubation general anesthesia were retrospectively included. Results Eight children who had difficulty cooperating with the surgery (due to young age, emotional tension, crying) received monitored anesthesia care with local anesthesia supplemented by sedative and analgesic drugs while maintaining spontaneous breathing under the monitoring and management of an anesthesiologist (i.e., non-tracheal intubation general anesthesia). Among them, there were 5 males and 3 females, with an age of (6.95±3.29) years and a body weight of (19.50±6.04) kg. Through transthoracic echocardiography, they were diagnosed with atrial septal defect (6 patients), residual shunt after patent ductus arteriosus ligation (1 patient), and severe pulmonary valve stenosis (1 patient). The surgery proceeded smoothly, with satisfactory anesthesia and surgical effects, complete analgesia, and satisfactory postoperative recovery. There was 1 patient of body movement and 1 patient of respiratory depression during the operation, and both patients completed the surgery successfully after treatment. All children had no serious surgery- and anesthesia-related complications. The anesthesia time was 40.5 (34.5, 47.5) min, the surgery time was 39.0 (33.0, 45.5) min, and the recovery time was 43.0 (28.0, 52.5) min Conclusion Interventional surgery for CHD guided by TTE at a mobile platform is a minimally invasive approach without radiation damage. Non-tracheal intubation general anesthesia with spontaneous breathing can be safely and effectively implemented in children who cannot cooperate.

Objective To explore the difference in clinical efficacy of sacubitril valsartan(SV)and enalapril in the treatment of elderly patients with chronic heart failure with reduced ejection frac-tion(HFrEF).Methods A total of 126 elderly patients with chronic HFrEF admitted in our de-partment between January 2020 and January 2023 were prospectively recruited and randomly di-vided into control group(enalapril treatment,63 cases)and observation group(SV treatment,63 cases).After 3 months of treatment,the improvement rate of NYHA cardiac function grade,and changes in cardiac function indicators[6-minute walking distance(6MWD),NT-proBNP,LVEDD,LVEF],and echocardiographic indicators[left ventricular myocardial work(Tei)index,stroke volume,cardiac output(CO)]before and after treatment,adverse reactions during treat-ment and prognosis were compared between the two groups.Results The improvement rate of NYHA grade was significantly higher in the observation group than the control group(80.95％vs 65.08％,P＜0.05).The results of 6MWD,LVEF,stroke volume and CO were obviously higher in both groups after treatment than before treatment(P＜0.05).The results of 6MWD,LVEF,stroke volume and CO were notably higher in the observation group than the control group(P＜0.01).The SBP,DBP,NT-proBNP,heart rate,LVEDD and LV Tei index were decreased after treatment in both groups,and those in the observation group were even lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).As of April 2024,the readmission rates due to HF was re-markably lower in the observation group than the control group(7.94％vs 20.63％,P＜0.05),but no statistical difference was seen in the mortality or the incidence of adverse reactions be-tween them(P＞0.05).Conclusion SV is superior to enalapril in improving the efficacy,cardiac function and cardiac load of elderly HFrEF patients,with advantages of reducing the incidence of readmission but not increasing adverse reactions.

Objective:To compare the differences in repair of rabbit bone defects between allogeneic platelet rich plasma (PRP) gel and autologous PRP gel.Methods:Thirty-six healthy New Zealand white rabbits were selected and randomly divided into an autologous group, an allogeneic group, and a control group ( n=12). A model of bilateral forelimb bone defects was established in each group. The autologous group was repaired with self-made deproteinized bone scaffold materials + autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) + autologous PRP gel, the allogeneic group with self-made deproteinized bone scaffold materials + autologous BMSCs + allogeneic PRP gel, and the control group with only self-made deproteinized bone scaffold materials + autologous BMSCs. At postoperative 1, 2, and 3 months, 4 animals were euthanized in each group, respectively, for gross observation, X-ray examination, Micro-CT examination, biomechanical testing and histological analysis (HE staining for tissue morphology) to compare the differences in repair of bone defects. Results:The formation of trabecular bone, cortical reconstruction, and medullary recanalization occurred earlier in the autologous and allogeneic groups than in the control group. Micro-CT analysis at postoperative 2 months showed that bone mineral density [(281.51±33.69) mg/mL and (266.13±37.13) mg/mL], bone volume fraction (23.52%±2.81% and 21.91%±1.94%), and trabecular number [(1.68±0.29) mm -1 and (1.63±0.22) mm -1] in the autologous and allogeneic groups were significantly higher than those in the control group [(197.47±18.61) mg/mL, 16.54%±3.06%, and (1.06±0.11) mm -1] ( P<0.05). No significant differences were found among the 3 groups in trabecular thickness [(0.33±0.09) mm, (0.42±0.16) mm, and (0.28±0.13) mm] or in the maximum compressive load ( P>0.05). HE staining revealed a significantly greater number and earlier formation of chondrocytes and osteoblasts in the autologous and allogeneic groups than in the control group. Conclusion:Since allogeneic PRP exhibits similar efficacy in promoting new bone formation compared with autologous PRP in a rabbit bone defect model, it may serve as a viable substitute for autologous PRP.

Objective To investigate whether successful percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)could improve symptoms and quality of life(QOL)in left main disease and/or 3-vessel disease patients with diabetes.Methods Patients with left main disease and/or 3-vessel disease who underwent PCI in the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from April 2018 to May 2021 were consecutively enrolled and subdivided into 2 groups:diabetes and no diabetes.Detailed baseline characteristics,symptoms,including dyspnea and angina,assessed with the Rose dyspnea scale(RDS),Seattle angina questionnaire(SAQ),the European quality of life-5 dimensions(EQ-5D)and 12-item short-form health survey(SF-12)questionnaire respectively,procedural details,and 1 month and 1 year follow-up data were collected.Results Among 440 left main disease and/or 3-vessel disease patients,disease was present in 176(40.00％),who had more hypertension,peripheral artery disease,and LCX lesion(all P＜0.05).The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)and all-cause mortality were similar between the two groups(both P＞0.05)at 1 month follow-up,while all-cause mortality in diabetes patients was significantly higher than those without diabetes at 1 year follow-up(P=0.013).Low left ventricular ejection fraction was an independent risk factor for MACE and all-cause mortality at 1 month and 1 year follow-up after successful revascularization(all P＜0.05).Most importantly,symptoms,including dyspnea and angina,and QOL were markedly improved regardless of diabetes both at 1 month and 1 year follow-up(all P＜0.05).Diabetes patients showed improved dyspnea and QOL at similar degree to the non-diabetes patients(all P＞0.05)and a more significantly relieved angina(P=0.013).Additionally,the number of chronic total occlusion(CTO)per patient was identified as an independent risk factor of dyspnea(OR 0.723,95％CI 0.525～0.997,P=0.048)and angina relief(OR 0.686,95％CI 0.473～0.995,P=0.047),and the contrast volume(OR 0.995,95％CI 0.992～0.999,P=0.008)as an independent risk factor of QOL improvement in diabetic patients.Conclusions Successful PCI is beneficial for relieving symptoms and improving quality of life in patients with diabetes who have left main disease and/or 3-vessel disease.

Cervical spinal cord injury without fracture-dislocation (CSCIWFD) is referred to as a special type of cervical spinal cord injury characterized by traumatic spinal cord dysfunction and no significant bony structural abnormalities on imagines. Duo to the high risk of missed diagnosis during the initial consultation, CSCIWFD may lead to progressive neurological deterioration or even complete paralysis, severely impacting patients′ prognosis. Currently, there are no established consensuses over the diagnosis and treatment of CSCIWFD, such as the lack of evidence-based standards for indications of non-surgical treatment and risk of secondary neurological injury, as well as debates over the optimal timing for surgical intervention and indications for different surgical approaches. To address these issues, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the relevant fields to formulate Diagnosis and treatment guideline for acute cervical spinal cord injury without fracture- dislocation in adults ( version 2025) . Based on evidence-based medicine and the principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability, the guidelines proposed 11 recommendations covering terminology, diagnosis, evaluation treatment, and rehabilitation, etc., aiming to standardize the management of CSCIWFD.

Medication reconciliation plays a key role in improving patient medication safety,reducing inappropriate polypharmacy,and promoting the high-quality development of pharmaceutical services.Compared to advanced international guidelines,China's medication reconciliation service standards have deficiencies in areas such as definition and process design,and multidisciplinary team building.There is a need to establish a comprehensive medication reconciliation effect evaluation index system,develop pharmacist-led multidisciplinary teams,promote the advancement of artificial intelligence and big data technologies,and strengthen outpatient and community medication reconciliation coverage,thereby contributing to the high-quality development of pharmaceutical services in China.
