One of the significant hurdles in telemedicine, particularly in ophthalmology, is the absence of direct physical examination. This specialty depends extensively on specialized instruments that typically require proficient operators. Visual function tests are crucial for both outpatient and inpatient ophthalmic services, playing a vital role in screening, diagnosing, monitoring treatment effectiveness, and managing follow-ups for various eye conditions. The progress in mobile technology has paved the way for expanding these tests beyond traditional clinic settings, promoting the creation of patient-focused, straightforward, cost-effective, and efficient measurement tools. In light of the swift advancement of digital technologies, this article reviews the characteristics, and reliability of self-administered visual function tests tools, including visual acuity, refractive error assessment, visual field, contrast sensitivity, and color vision, along with other pertinent diagnostic tools that have been developed and validated for accuracy and repeatability through research, with a view to providing ophthalmologists and patients with scientific and practical references when selecting and using these tools, further promoting efficiency and efficacy of teleophthalmology.

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI), especially generative AI (GenAI), has already brought, and will continue to bring, revolutionary changes to our daily production and life, as well as create new opportunities and challenges for diagnostic and therapeutic practices in the medical field. Haihe Hospital of Tianjin University collaborates with the National Supercomputer Center in Tianjin, Tianjin University, and other institutions to carry out research in areas such as smart healthcare, smart services, and smart management. We have conducted research and development of a full-process disease diagnosis and treatment assistance system based on GenAI in the field of smart healthcare. The development of this project is of great significance. The first goal is to upgrade and transform the hospital's information center, organically integrate it with existing information systems, and provide the necessary computing power storage support for intelligent services within the hospital. We have implemented the localized deployment of three models: Tianhe "Tianyuan", WiNGPT, and DeepSeek. The second is to create a digital avatar of the chief physician/chief physician's voice and image by integrating multimodal intelligent interaction technology. With generative intelligence as the core, this solution provides patients with a visual medical interaction solution. The third is to achieve deep adaptation between generative intelligence and the entire process of patient medical treatment. In this project, we have developed assistant tools such as intelligent inquiry, intelligent diagnosis and recognition, intelligent treatment plan generation, and intelligent assisted medical record generation to improve the safety, quality, and efficiency of the diagnosis and treatment process. This study introduces the content of a full-process disease diagnosis and treatment assistance system, aiming to provide references and insights for the digital transformation of the healthcare industry.

Objective:To explore the influence and its mechanism of allogeneic dermal papilla cells (DPCs) on the wound healing of full-thickness skin defects in mice.Methods:This study was an experimental study. DPCs were isolated from the whisker follicles of five 6-week-old male C57BL/6J mice by combining microdissection with collagenase digestion and were successfully identified. Eighteen 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were divided into phosphate buffer solution (PBS) group and DPC group according to the random number table, with 9 mice in each group, and the full-thickness skin defect wound model was created on the back of all mice. On day 2, 4, and 6 after injury, the mice in DPC group were administered 100 μL of cell suspension containing 1×10 6 DPCs of the 4 th passage by subcutaneous injection around the wound, and the mice in PBS group was administered an equal volume of PBS. On day 3, 7, 10, and 14 after injury, the wound healing and hair growth of mice in two groups were observed, and the residual wound area was measured, and the hair coverage area on the wound of mice in two groups was measured on day 14 after injury. On day 14 after injury, the wound tissue samples of mice in two groups were collected. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was performed to observe the condition of newborn hair follicles and the number was counted, Masson staining was performed to observe the collagen deposition in the dermis and the collagen deposition area was measured, the immunofluorescence method was used to detect the protein expressions of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway related molecules β-catenin and lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 (Lef1), and Western blotting and real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction were used to detect the protein and mRNA expressions of β-catenin and Lef1, respectively. The number of samples in each experiment was 3. Results:Compared with those in PBS group, the mice in DPC group had accelerated wound re-epithelialization at each time point after injury, and more hair growth on day 10 and 14 after injury. On day 7, 10, and 14 after injury, the residual wound areas of mice in DPC group were (13.92±2.90), (3.69±1.78), and (1.09±0.14) mm 2, respectively, which were significantly smaller than (26.19±2.06), (10.84±3.59), and (6.75±2.11) mm 2 in PBS group, respectively (with t values of 5.85, 3.09, and 4.63, respectively, P values all <0.05). On day 14 after injury, the hair coverage area on the wound of mice in DPC group was (62±7) mm 2, which was significantly larger than (35±6) mm 2 in PBS group ( t=2.89, P<0.05). On day 14 after injury, compared with those in PBS group, the number of newborn hair follicles in the wound tissue of mice in DPC group was significantly increased ( t=5.43, P<0.05), and the dermal collagen deposition area was significantly reduced ( t=3.56, P<0.05). On day 14 after injury, both the immunofluorescence method and the Western blotting detection showed that the protein expressions of β-catenin (with t values of 5.49 and 4.25, respectively, P values all <0.05) and Lef1 (with t values of 7.50 and 11.54, respectively, P values all <0.05) in the wound tissue of mice in DPC group were significantly higher than those in PBS group; the mRNA expressions of β-catenin and Lef1 in the wound tissue of mice in DPC group were significantly higher than those in PBS group (with t values of 7.68 and 9.67, respectively, P<0.05). Conclusions:DPCs can accelerate the re-epithelialization of full-thickness skin defect wounds in mice by activating Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and promote hair follicle regeneration during the process of wound healing.

The COVID-19 epidemic has spread to the whole world for three years and has had a serious impact on human life, health and economic activities. China's epidemic prevention and control has gone through the following stages: emergency unconventional stage, emergency normalization stage, and the transitional stage from the emergency normalization to the "Category B infectious disease treated as Category B" normalization, and achieved a major and decisive victory. The designated hospitals for prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic in Tianjin has successfully completed its tasks in all stages of epidemic prevention and control, and has accumulated valuable experience. This article summarizes the experience of constructing a hospital infection prevention and control system during the "Category B infectious disease treated as Category A" period in designated hospital. The experience is summarized as the "Cluster" hospital infection prevention and control system, namely "three rings" outside, middle and inside, "three districts" of green, orange and red, "three things" before, during and after the event, "two-day pre-purification" and "two-director system", and "one zone" management. In emergency situations, we adopt a simplified version of the cluster hospital infection prevention and control system. In emergency situations, a simplified version of the "Cluster" hospital infection prevention and control system can be adopted. This system has the following characteristics: firstly, the system emphasizes the characteristics of "cluster" and the overall management of key measures to avoid any shortcomings. The second, it emphasizes the transformation of infection control concepts to maximize the safety of medical services through infection control. The third, it emphasizes the optimization of the process. The prevention and control measures should be comprehensive and focused, while also preventing excessive use. The measures emphasize the use of the least resources to achieve the best infection control effect. The fourth, it emphasizes the quality control work of infection control, pays attention to the importance of the process, and advocates the concept of "system slimming, process fattening". Fifthly, it emphasizes that the future development depends on artificial intelligence, in order to improve the quality and efficiency of prevention and control to the greatest extent. Sixth, hospitals need to strengthen continuous training and retraining. We utilize diverse training methods, including artificial intelligence, to ensure that infection control policies and procedures are simple. We have established an evaluation and feedback mechanism to ensure that medical personnel are in an emergency state at all times.

A middle-aged male came to Peking Union Medical College Hospital for treatment because of "pain for 10+ years, aggravated with emotional instability for 5 years". The patient's pain had a huge impact on life, with poor results even after repeated diagnosis and treatment in other hospitals. After multi-disciplinary discussion, it had been clarified that the pain was mainly caused by gout. The disease was heavily influenced by psychosocial factors. Therefore, the patient fits the diagnosis of "Psychological and Behavioral Factors Affecting Physical Diseases". The multi-disciplinary comprehensive management of the patient was carried out to identify and treat psychological factors affecting other medical conditions. After this mental treatment was performed, the patient's conditions significantly improved. The diagnosis and treatment of this patient demonstrates the importance of the multi-disciplinary treatment team for somatic symptoms (disorders).
