Objective Jejunal interposition is an important option for restoring gastrointestinal continuity in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable for reconstruction due to previous gastrectomy, tumor involvement, failed gastric conduit, or other constraints. Although the jejunum offers a caliber similar to the esophagus, a rich blood supply, and preserved peristaltic function, anatomical variations in mesenteric length and vascular arcades render long-segment and high-level reconstruction susceptible to excessive tension, mesenteric torsion, venous congestion, and inadequate distal perfusion. This consensus aims to provide standardized recommendations for the application of jejunal interposition in this specific patient population. Methods This consensus was developed in accordance with the WHO Handbook for Guideline Development and Chinese national guideline development standards, with reference to the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ(AGREE Ⅱ), Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT), and Scientific, Transparent and Applicable Rankings (STAR) checklists. The project was registered on the international practice guidelines registry platform (PREPARE-2026CN1384). The working group systematically searched Chinese and English evidence addressing 12 clinical questions. Evidence was graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) 2009 system, with structured appraisal of risk of bias, inconsistency, indirectness, and imprecision. Recommendations were formulated through two rounds of Delphi surveys and a face-to-face consensus meeting, with an agreement threshold of ≥75%. Results The consensus generated 12 recommendations covering indications, selection between jejunum and colon, preoperative assessment, surgical approach and reconstruction route, pedicled jejunal interposition (PJI), supercharged pedicled jejunal interposition (SPJ), indocyanine green (ICG) perfusion assessment, perioperative nutrition, management of anastomotic leakage, long-term follow-up, and special treatment scenarios. Given that the available direct evidence is predominantly derived from single-center retrospective cohorts and case series, recommendations extrapolated from general esophagectomy or other gastrointestinal surgical evidence are deliberately phrased with caution. Conclusion Jejunal interposition is a safe and effective approach for digestive tract reconstruction in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable. This consensus emphasizes that clinical decision-making should be individualized based on the patient's prior treatment history, reconstruction height, vascular anatomy, technical availability, and institutional experience in the Chinese context.

Objective:To compare knowledge graphs (KGs) constructed from standardized clinical pathways and actual examination records within 24 hours of emergency care for acute gastrointestinal hemorrhage (AGH), acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and to visually analyze discrepancies between guideline recommendations and real-world practice, thereby exploring a novel methodology for clinical pathway optimization.Methods:KGs were developed using clinical pathway standards and actual examination data collected within the first 24 hours of emergency treatment for AGH, AMI, and ICH. Entity attributes were weighted to visually represent the frequency and extent of examination usage through variable node sizes in the KG. The constructed KGs were used to compare and analyze the differences in type and frequency of examinations performed relative to pathway standards.Results:The proportion of examination items with >50% adherence to clinical pathway standards within 24 hours was 76.92% for AGH, 44.44% for AMI, and 78.57% for ICH. Items from the clinical pathways that were not performed in over 50% of patients accounted for 15.38%, 27.78%, and 21.43% of cases, respectively. Non-pathway examinations increased by 9, 7, and 4 items for each condition, of which 17 items (85%) were performed at least once in more than half of the patients. Visualization via KGs revealed a reduction in redundant examinations by 38.64% between AGH and AMI, 35.00% between AGH and ICH, and 37.50% between AMI and ICH. Overall, a 54.84% reduction in redundant examinations was achieved across all three critical conditions.Conclusions:The visual KG approach effectively integrates both guideline-recommended and experience-driven examinations, serving as a correlational analysis tool to assess deviations between actual clinical practice and standardized pathways. It provides a quantitative foundation for optimizing clinical pathways, with potential for greater efficiency gains as more critical conditions are incorporated into the graph.

Sesquiterpenes are natural terpenes containing 15 carbon atoms. They are widely used in the perfume, pharmaceutical, and biofuel industries due to their remarkable biological activities. The traditional production of sesquiterpenes relies on chemical synthesis or plant extraction, which has the disadvantages of low yields and waste of resources. The construction of microbial cell factories for the efficient synthesis of sesquiterpenes by means of synthetic biology provides a new option. In recent years, with the development of metabolic engineering and synthetic biology, the heterologous synthesis of a variety of sesquiterpenes has been successfully achieved by metabolic engineering of the oleaginous yeast, Yarrowia lipolytica. In this paper, we review the research progress in the heterologous synthesis of different sesquiterpenes by Y. lipolytica, discuss the synthetic biology strategies commonly used in this field, and make an outlook on the research directions and engineering approaches to further enhance the sesquiterpene yield in this host. This paper provides a reference for strategies such as synergistic optimization of synthetic biology and metabolic engineering, enhanced precursors, and opens up new directions for the application of synthetic biology in green chemistry and sustainable production.

Objective: To examine the associations between peer bullying and parental phubbing with executive function and their combined effect among primary and secondary school students, so as to provide scientific evidence for promoting healthy development of executive function among primary and secondary school students. Methods: In November 2024, a combining convenience with clustering method was used to select 3 547 primary and secondary school students in Shenzhen City. The Chinese versions of the Delaware Bullying Victimization Scale-Student (DBVS-S), the Parental Phubbing Scale (PPS), and the Teenage Executive Functioning Inventory (TEXI) were used to assess peer bullying, parental phubbing, and executive function, respectively. Generalized linear regression models were applied to analyze the associations of peer bullying and parental phubbing with executive function, and to assess their joint effects. Subgroup analyses were performed by ages and genders, and multiplicative interaction terms were used to test for interactions. Results: The score for peer bullying among primary and secondary school students was (15.27± 5.67 ), with verbal bullying, physical bullying, and relational bullying scores being (5.64±2.77) (4.70±1.62) (4.93±2.07), respectively. The score for parental phubbing was (13.98±5.00). Executive function score was (47.35±15.89), while inhibitory control and working memory scores were (26.44±9.00) (20.91±7.49), respectively. After adjusting for confounding factors such as age, gender, self reported family relationship, self reported family economic status, parental education level, both peer bullying ( β= 0.75, 95%CI =0.67-0.84), verbal bullying( β=1.41, 95%CI =1.23-1.58), physical bullying ( β=2.18, 95%CI =1.87- 2.49 ), relational bullying ( β=1.78, 95%CI =1.54-2.01) and parental phubbing ( β=0.88, 95%CI =0.79-0.98) were significantly positively associated with the degree of executive function impairment (all P <0.01). Joint effect analysis showed that, compared with the "no bullying low phubbing" group, the total executive function scores in other combined exposure groups were all higher ( β = 6.78-15.96, all P <0.01). Among them, the "bullying high phubbing" group exhibited the highest level of executive function impairment ( β=14.17, 95%CI=12.61-15.73, P <0.01). Subgroup analysis indicated significant interactions between verbal bullying and age on total executive function, inhibitory control, and working memory (all P interaction <0.01). The association of verbal bullying with executive function was slightly higher in primary and secondary school students younger than 13 years ( β=1.80, 95%CI = 1.45-2.16) than in those aged 13 years or older ( β=1.25, 95%CI =1.05-1.45) (both P <0.01). Other types of bullying and parental phone neglect showed no statistically significant interaction with age or gender in executive function, inhibitory control, and working memory(all P interaction >0.05). Conclusion Both peer bullying and parental phubbing are significantly associated with impaired executive function among primary and secondary school students, and there is a combined effect between them; among these, the association between verbal bullying and executive function impairment in younger primary and secondary school students is more pronounced.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the peak wideband acoustic immittance(WAI)values reflecting the tympanic membrane absorption characteristics during the measurement process in patients with congenital middle ear malformation.METHODS We selected 36 patients diagnosed with congenital middle ear malformation by CT as subjects and evaluated their tympanic membrane absorption characteristics by measuring their acoustic impedance peak pressure.Then,we divided these data into two groups based on the pathological malformation obseved during the surgical process,namely the auditory ossicular chain soft connection group and the auditory ossicular chain fixation group.Calculate the absorption rate values of the tympanic membrane at each frequency corresponding to the peak pressure value of the tympanogram,and the relative area of absorption rate.By conducting independent t-tests,we compared two groups-normal children and patients who had undergone ossicular chain fixation surgery-to analyze the absorption area and peak absorption rate of their tympanic peak pressure values.RESULTS Under peak pressure,there were significant differences(P<0.001)in the full frequency range tympanic membrane absorption rate and peak absorption rate between the group with fixed ossicular chain and the normal group.However,there was no difference in the full frequency range tympanic membrane absorption rate and peak absorption rate between the group with soft ossicular chain and the normal group.Under peak pressure,the absorption area of the ossicular chain fixation group was significantly lower than that of the normal group in the low frequency range of 226-1 000 Hz(P<0.001),while the absorption area of the ossicular chain soft connection group was significantly higher than that of the normal group in the low frequency range of 226-1 000 Hz(P<0.001).CONCLUSION When conducting broadband acoustic impedance test,there is a significant difference in the relative area of tympanic membrane absorption rate of acoustic impedance peak pressure between the auditory ossicular chain soft connection group and the auditory ossicular chain fixation group across 226-1 000 Hz.It has application value as a clinical rapid screening and diagnostic tool for middle ear malformations.

Objective To explore the effect of cognitive behavioral therapy(CBT)on improving anxiety,depression,sleep,and fatigue in patients with post-intensive care syndrome(PICS).Methods Sixty PICS patients transferred from the department of respiratory intensive care unit(RICU)of Puyang Oilfield General Hospital from September 2022 to February 2023 were selected as the study subjects.Patients were divided into a control group and an intervention group using a random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.The control group only received routine health education,while the intervention group received CBT on the basis of routine health education.After 3 months of intervention,the changes in hospital anxiety and depression scale(HADS),Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI),and fatigue assessment scale(FAS)before and after intervention were observed in both groups of patients.Results There was no statistically significant difference in anxiety,depression,PSQI,and FAS scores between the two groups of patients before intervention.The scores gradually decreased over time and reached the lowest level at 3 months after intervention.After intervention,the above scores in the intervention group were significantly lower than those in the control group(anxiety score:5.06±1.76 vs.9.33±1.42,depression score:6.93±1.64 vs.7.63±1.61,PSQI score:5.27±1.37 vs.8.43±2.56,FAS score:5.67±0.47 vs.9.97±0.21,all P<0.05).Conclusion Implementing CBT for PICS patients can alleviate anxiety and depression,improve their sleep quality and fatigue symptoms,thereby enhancing their quality of life.

OBJECTIVE To explore the changes of serum Toll-like receptor(TLR)2,TLR4 and 25 hydroxyvitamin D[25(OH)D]in the general anesthesia orthopedic surgery patients with postoperative pulmonary infections and analyze the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens.METHODS A total of 59 general anesthesia orthopedic surgery patients with postoperative pulmonary infections who were treated in Tianjin Fifth Central Hospital from Jul.2019 to Jul.2024 were chosen as the infection group,meanwhile,65 patients who underwent the same surger-y but did not have postoperative pulmonary infection or other acute and chronic infections were chosen as the non-infection group.The etiological characteristics of the postoperative pulmonary infections and the drug re-sistance rates were analyzed.The clinical data and the levels of serum TLR2,TLR4 and 25(OH)D were observed and compared between the two groups of patients.The values of the above indicators in diagnosis of the postopera-tive pulmonary infections in the general anesthesia orthopedic surgery were analyzed.RESULTS Totally 63 strains of pathogens were isolated from the 59 general anesthesia orthopedic surgery patients with postoperative pulmona-ry infections,36(57.14％)of which were gram-negative bacteria.3 of 15 Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were resistant to meropenem;4 of 12 Klebsiella pneumoniae strians were resistant to meropenem;all of the 11 Staph-ylococcus aureus strains were methicilin-resistant S.aureus.The proportions of patients with age,hypoproteine-mia and diabetes mellitus,the serum TLR2 and TLR4 levels were higher in the infection group than in the non-infection group(P＜0.05),while the 25(OH)D level of the infection group was lower than that of the no in-fection group(P＜0.05).The area under the curves(AUCs)of serum TLR2,TLR4,25(OH)D and the joint de-tection of the above indicators were respectively 0.817,0.801,0.787 and 0.917 in diagnosis of postoperative pul-monary infections in the general anesthesia orthopedic surgery patients,and the AUC of the joint detection of the indicators was greater than that of the single detection(P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS The general anesthesia or-thopedic surgery patients with postoperative pulmonary infections show high expressions of serum TLR2 and TLR4 and the low expression of 25(OH)D.The joint detection of the above indexes has higher diagnostic value.The gram-negative bacteria are dominant among the pathogens causing the infections.The pathogens vary in the drug resistance.

Sepsis-associated delirium(SAD)is a common and severe central nervous system(CNS)complication in patients with sepsis,whose occurrence mechanism is unclear and there is no effective treatment at present.Neuroendocrine immune regulation disorder is closely related to occurrence and development of SAD.Immune mediators can deliver peripheral immune information to CNS by humoral transport or through afferent nerves.Immune mediators invading center can not only directly damage neurons,but also activate innate immune cells of brain,further aggravate neuroinflammation,and cause neurotransmitter imbalance,neurotoxic effects,resulting in neuronal dysfunction,even apoptosis and subsequent behavioral and cognitive symptoms.This paper aims to review mechanisms of neuro-endocrine-immune regulation in occurrence and development of SAD,and to find effective targets for prevention and treatment of sepsis and SAD.
