Objective To investigate the etiology and treatment of dysuria shortly after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), so as to improve the therapeutic efficacy. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 1361 BPH patients who received HoLEP at our hospital during Mar. 2018 and Mar. 2025. All patients underwent ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), urethral probing or radiography, cystourethroscopy, and urodynamic testing. The causes, treatments and prognosis of dysuria after operation were summarized. Results ninety-eight patients (7.2%) experienced dysuria within 3 months after surgery, and all patients received initial urethral dilation. Among the 62 cases with urethral stricture, 28 were treated with urethral dilation (average of 8 sessions), 16 underwent external urethral incision, 8 underwent anterior urethroplasty, and 10 underwent transurethral plasma incision for urethral stricture. Of the 12 cases with residual prostate tissue, 5 underwent urethral plasma prostatectomy and 7 received medication. All of the 12 cases with bladder neck contracture underwent transurethral plasma incision of the bladder neck and local drug injection. Five cases with intravesical blood clots underwent urethral blood clot irrigation, 2 of which developed active bleeding and then underwent electrocoagulation. Four cases with detrusor dysfunction had catheters re-indwelled for one week followed by medication. Two cases with stone and one case with tissue fragment impacted in the urethra underwent urethral holmium lithotripsy and cystoscopic removal. All patients underwent reoperation successfully and experienced complete resolution or significant improvement of urinary difficulties. Conclusion A certain proportion of patients experience dysuria after HoLEP, with diverse etiologies. The combination of prevention and treatment can reduce the incidence of dysuria.

During cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), the depth of compression is a critical factor affecting the effectiveness of the rescue and the patient's prognosis. However, it is difficult to master the correct compression depth in manual CPR. If the compression depth is too deep, it may cause rib fractures, while insufficient compression depth may fail to establish effective circulation. Although most existing manual CPR compression depth control devices can indicate the depth but lack direct limiting functions. Against this background, led by a team of faculty and students from the Department of Emergency and Rescue Medicine at Xuzhou Medical University, on the basis of the development of a portable CPR protection device (National Invention Patent of China, patent number: ZL 2021 1 0309001.4), the device's compression depth limiting performance was further expanded, and then a new type of CPR compression depth limiting device suitable for different body types was developed. This device has applied for a National Invention Patent of China (patent application number: ZL 2023 1 0644910.2) and has been granted a National Utility Model Patent of China (patent number: ZL 2023 2 1384853.0). The device consists of a horizontal support beam, a vertical sliding beam, a guide block, a rotating shaft, a rotating arm, a limit slider and a limit pin. The horizontal support beams of the two limit devices are fixed horizontally to the horizontal side beams of the portable CPR protection device by bolts, and the connecting arms at the bottom of the vertical sliding beams are fixedly connected with the pressing mechanism, so that precise control of the pressing depth in CPR operation can be realized according to the patient's body size by the mechanical linkage of the vertical sliding beams and the rotating arms, as well as by the blocking and limiting effect of the rotating arms and the guiding blocks on the limiting sliders. It can prevent the occurrence of complications such as chest wall fractures, and thereby increase the success rate of manual CPR, and its structure is simple, low-cost, and suitable for social popularization.

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the emergency infusion protocol for universal red blood cells by analyzing its clinical application in patients treated at our hospital's war trauma and emergency center. Methods: Data were collected from 133 patients who received universal red blood cell transfusion in the war trauma center of our hospital from January 2016 to December 2024. The basic information, universal red blood cell transfusion volume, compatible blood components, transfusion volume, blood routine (Hb, Hct), liver and kidney function (ALT, AST, TBil, DBil, creatinine, etc.) and coagulation function (PT, APTT, Fib, etc.) before and after transfusion were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Among the 133 patients who received a total of 374 units of universal red blood cells, the 24-hour survival rate was 62.4% (83/133). Spearman correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between shock index and universal red blood cell transfusion volume (r=0.283, P<0.05). Patients were stratified by universal red blood cell transfusion volume (≤ 3 U vs ≥ 4 U). The low volume group had less homotypic red blood cell transfusion volume and total transfusion volume at different time points, and the difference was statistically significant: within 2 h [2(2, 4)vs 4(3, 7), P=0.033<0.05], 0~24 h [6(4, 9) vs 8(6, 14), P=0.028<0.05], total transfusion volume [13(8, 20)vs 19(12, 35), P=0.021<0.05]. No acute hemolytic transfusion reaction occurred within 24 hours after transfusion of universal red blood cell. Conclusion: Universal red blood cells are safe for use in emergency treatment. Furthermore, the shock index combined with the volume of universal red blood cells transfused can predict subsequent transfusion requirements and enables the early reservation of compatible blood, thereby preventing delayed resuscitation.

Subtype classification of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) based on optical coherence tomography (OCT) images serves as an effective auxiliary tool for clinicians in diagnosing disease progression and formulating treatment plans. To improve the classification accuracy of AMD subtypes, this study proposes a keypoint-based, attention-enhanced residual network (KPA-ResNet). The proposed architecture adopts a 50-layer residual network (ResNet-50) as the backbone, preceded by a keypoint localization module based on heatmap regression to outline critical lesion regions. A two-dimensional relative self-attention mechanism is incorporated into convolutional layers to enhance the representation of key lesion areas. Furthermore, the network depth is appropriately increased and an improved residual module, ConvNeXt, is introduced to enable comprehensive extraction of high-dimensional features and enrich the detail of lesion boundary contours, ultimately achieving higher classification accuracy of AMD subtypes. Experimental results demonstrate that KPA-ResNet achieves significant improvements in overall classification accuracy compared with conventional convolutional neural networks. Specifically, for the wet AMD subtypes, the classification accuracies for inactive choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and active CNV reach 92.8% and 95.2%, respectively, representing substantial improvement over ResNet-50. These findings validate the superior performance of KPA-ResNet in AMD subtype classification tasks. This work provides a high-accuracy, generalizable network architecture for OCT-based AMD subtype classification and offers new insights into integrating attention mechanisms with convolutional neural networks in ophthalmic image analysis.

Objective:To design an assisted management system for medical consumables that integrated management logic of diagnosis related groups(DRG)for disease,so as to standardize the use for medical consumables and to strengthen regulatory efficiency.Methods:The system was designed by a microservices architecture,and the data fusion of business data,data of diagnosis and treatment,and DRG data was realized through constructed data lake.A knowledge graph of associated rule for medical consumables was established,and the intelligent analysis function included prediction for demand,usage optimization,and anomaly detection was provided to assist management decision-making on the basis of inference for historical data and knowledge,and multi-dimensional data queries.A rule engine was deployed at key clinical nodes for real-time compliance review and intelligent alerts.A DRG-based business management process was constructed to cover full lifecycle of consumables,including admission,procurement,warehousing,storage,requisition,usage billing,and traceability,so as to realize real-time monitoring and early warning for consumable costs at the DRG level.Six clinical doctors with 2-3 years of experience in using medical consumable were selected as test users from Tangdu Hospital of the Air Force Medical University,and they were randomly assigned into a system group and a control group,with 3 subjects in each group.The system group utilized the auxiliary management system for medical consumable to perform prediction for the demand of monthly procurement,and rationality verification of consumable.The control group relied on individual experience of doctors.The predicted monthly procurement demand for medical consumables,the accuracy of verifying rationality of using medical consumables between two groups were compared,and the efficiencies of two kinds of management modes also were compared.Results:The accuracy rate of system group was 89.17%in predicting the monthly procurement demand for medical consumables,and the rate of checking accuracy and the rate of checking comprehensiveness of system group were respectively 87.50%and 91.67%in verifying rationality of using medical consumables,which were significantly higher than those of control group,and the differences were significant(x2=6.62,1.96,16.73,P<0.05).The durations of predicting the demand for procurement,and verifying and testing the rationality of consumables in system group were significantly shorter than these in control group[(3.54±0.45)s,(2.23±0.15)s],and the differences were statistically significant(t=1.97,1.65,P<0.05).Conclusion:The medical consumables auxiliary management system integrated with DRG management logic can significantly enhance the accuracy of monthly demand prediction for consumables and the recall rate and precision rate of rationality verification for consumables usage,while greatly improving work efficiency.It is conducive to enhancing the standardized and refined supervision level of consumables usage.

Acute lateral ankle sprain (ALAS) is one of the most common sport injuries, with high incidence, recurrence and disability rates. Currently, exercise rehabilitation-based non-surgical treatment is the primary management approach for ALAS. However, there remain improper practices such as excessive immobilization or uncontrolled activity, which contribute to recurrent sprains and chronic ankle instability, significantly impairing patients′ athletic function and quality of life. To standardize the non-surgical management of ALAS, improve the cure rates, and reduce the recurrence and disability rates, Chinese Sports Rehabilitation Medicine Training Project of Chinese Medical Association, Foot and Ankle Basics and Orthopedics Group, Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Sports Medicine Branch of Jiangsu Medical Association organized relevant experts to formulate Expert consensus on non-surgical treatment for acute lateral ankle sprain ( version 2025), following the principles of scientific vigor, practicality, and innovation. Thirteen recommendations were proposed for standardized treatment protocols across different healing phases, aiming to provide references for standard management of ALAS and improve the therapeutic outcomes.

Nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF), predominantly affecting the elderly, can lead to intractable pain, vertebral collapse, progressive kyphotic deformity, and neurological impairment, significantly compromising patients′ quality of life. There exists considerable debate on diagnosis and management of OVF, encompassing key issues such as clinical diagnosis and staging criteria for nonunion, surgical indications and procedure selection, and postoperative rehabilitation planning. Currently, there lacks standardized clinical guideline and expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of OVF nonunion in China. To address this gap, Minimally Invasive Surgery Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Osteoporosis Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Prevention and Rehabilitation Committee for Osteoporosis of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery Branch of China Association for Geriatric Care jointly organized domestic experts in spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rehabilitation to formulate the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures ( version 2025), based on existing literature and clinical experience and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and practicality. The guideline provided 13 evidence-based recommendations encompassing diagnosis and treatment of OVF nonunion, aiming to standardize its clinical management.

Objective:To evaluate the association between heatwaves and fall-related mortality.Methods:A total of 61 421 fall-related mortality from 2013 to 2022 in 7 provinces of China were included in a time-stratified case-crossover design, with daily meteorological data derived from the fifth generation European Reanalysis dataset produced by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. Conditional logistic regression chimeric distributed lag nonlinear model was used to analyze the association between heatwaves and fall-related mortality and stratified analysis was conducted according to gender and age.Results:Heatwaves were associated with an increased risk of fall-related morality. The risk of fall-related mortality during heatwaves was higher than during non-heatwave periods ( OR=1.11, 95% CI: 1.05-1.18). The attributable fraction of fall-related motality due to heatwaves was 10.25% (95% CI: 4.49%-15.36%). For each 1 ℃ increase above the heatwave threshold, the risk of fall-related mortality increased by 34% ( OR=1.34, 95% CI: 1.02-1.76). The effect of heatwave duration on fall-related mortality was not statistically significant. Stratified analyses indicated that women experienced a higher risk of fall-related mortality during heatwaves ( OR=1.13, 95% CI: 1.04-1.22) compared to man ( OR=1.10, 95% CI: 1.04-1.17). Conclusions:Heatwave increases the risk of fall-related mortality, and the intensity of heatwaves modify this risk. Women are vulnerable populations.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of child injuries（CI）and provide a scientific basis for developing CI prevention and treatment strategies.Methods:Clinical data of CI cases admitted to Kunshan Woman and Children’s Healthcare Hospital from January 1st，2020 to December 31st，2022 were collected. The cases were classified into three age groups：infants and toddlers（0-3 years），preschoolers（4-6 years），and school-age children（7-14 years）. Post hoc testing was used for pairwise comparisons between groups，and differences were determined based on adjusted standardized residuals（AR）. The epidemiological characteristics that were analyzed included the type，location，and nature of injuries across these age groups.Results:A total of 12 449 CI cases were collected with a male-to-female ratio of 1.72∶1. School-age boys were more prone to injuries（72.2%， AR=16.3）compared to the other two age groups. The major CI types were falls（50.4%），blunt injuries（15.9%），and strains（9.9%）. The infant and toddler group showed higher rates of strains（21.9%， AR=34.9）and poisonings（7.9%， AR=19.6）compared to the other two groups，while preschoolers group had higher rates of falls（55.6%， AR=6.5）and motor vehicle accidents（4.8%， AR=3.6）compared to other age groups. The most frequently injured body regions were upper limbs（43.9%），head/face/neck（27.0%），and lower limbs（16.7%）. The infant and toddler group had higher rates of head/face/neck（34.8%， AR=15.4），upper limb（46%， AR=3.6），and whole body（8.9%， AR=18.7）injuries. The nature of CI mainly includes contusion/bruise/crush injury（34.3%），fractures（20.0%）and sharp/open wounds（19.5%）. School-age children exhibited higher rates of fractures（30.1%， AR=22.1），strains/sprains（10.1%， AR=13.0），contusion/bruise/crush injury（36.6%， AR=4.2），and multi-site injuries（0.7%， AR=4.4）compared to the other two groups. Injuries were mostly mild（90.8%），with infants and toddlers showing higher mild injury rates（95.0%， AR=12.7），whereas school-aged children had more moderate injuries（11.7%， AR=11.0）. Conclusion:The epidemiological characteristics of CI in infants and toddlers，preschoolers and school-age children are different，and different intervention strategies are needed for different age groups.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of clinically isolated Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis in hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021,and provide evidence for rational use of antimicrobial agents.Methods Data of H.influenzae and M.catarrhalis strains isolated from 2015 to 2021 in CHINET program were collected for analysis,and antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by disc diffusion method or automated systems according to the uniform protocol of CHINET.The results were interpreted according to the CLSI breakpoints in 2022.Beta-lactamases was detected by using nitrocefin disk.Results From 2015 to 2021,a total of 43 642 strains of Haemophilus species were isolated,accounting for 2.91％of the total clinical isolates and 4.07％of Gram-negative bacteria in CHINET program.Among the 40 437 strains of H.influenzae,66.89％were isolated from children and 33.11％were isolated from adults.More than 90％of the H.influenzae strains were isolated from respiratory tract specimens.The prevalence of β-lactamase was 53.79％in H.influenzae strains.The H.influenzae strains isolated from children showed higher resistance rate than the strains isolated from adults.Overall,779 strains of H.influenzae did not produce β-lactamase but were resistant to ampicillin(BLNAR).Beta-lactamase-producing strains showed significantly higher resistance rates to these antimicrobial agents than the β-lactamase-nonproducing strains.Of the 16 191 M.catarrhalis strains,80.06％were isolated from children and 19.94％isolated from adults.M.catarrhalis strains were mostly susceptible to both amoxicillin-clavulanic acid and cefuroxime,evidenced by resistance rate lower than 2.0％.Conclusions The emergence of antibiotic-resistant H.influenzae due to β-lactamase production poses a challenge for clinical anti-infective treatment.Therefore,it is very important to implement antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae and guide rational antibiotic use.All local clinical microbiology laboratories should actively improve antibiotic susceptibility testing and strengthen antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae.
