Objective To observe the value of zero echo time(ZTE)3.0T MRI for detecting lung cancer nodules.Methods Totally 126 lung cancer patients(176 lung nodules)were prospectively enrolled and underwent 3.0T MR axial lung scanning,including T1-volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination(VIBE),T2-BLADE,T2-half-Fourier acquisition single-shot turbo spin-echo(HASTE)and ZTE sequences.The consistency between ZTE MRI and previous CT for displaying characteristics of pulmonary nodules was analyzed,and the sensitivity of different MR sequences for detecting pulmonary nodules were observed.Results Among 176 pulmonary nodules showed on CT,ZTE MRI detected 140 and missed 36 ones.The consistency between ZTE MRI and CT for displaying the maximum diameter and actual maximum diameter of pulmonary nodules were both good(ICC=0.954,0.943,both P＜0.001),and the difference between ZTE MRI and CT was small.The consistency between ZTE MRI and CT for displaying tracheal vascular bundles,pleural indentation and internal bronchial inflation signs were all good(Kappa=0.894,0.912,0.917),while for displaying the type and shape of nodules were both moderate(Kappa=0.661,0.501).The sensitivity of ZTE MRI for detecting pulmonary nodules was higher than that of other individual MR sequences(all P＜0.05),of combination of ZTE and T2 BLADE was higher than that of other sequence combinations(all P＜0.05).Conclusion ZTE 3.0T MRI could be used to detect lung cancer nodules,which was superior to conventional MRI.Combination of ZTE 3.0T MRI with T2-BLADE could improve the sensitivity for detecting pulmonary nodules.

Autophagy is a lysosome-dependent intracellular degradation process，and it is a key mechanism of diabetic cardiomyopathy （DCM）. Autophagy has dual regulatory effects on DCM. Under physiological conditions，normal autophagy can promote the decomposition of damaged cardiomyocytes and metabolites，so as to reduce the damage of harmful substances to the body and provide energy for cardiomyocytes. Under pathological conditions，the inhibited autophagy of cardiomyocytes will cause the accumulation of damaged cells and metabolites，which will cause damage to cardiomyocytes and eventually aggravate cardiac dysfunction in the patients with DCM. However，the over autophagy of cardiomyocytes will lead to autophagic death of a large number of cardiomyocytes and result in pathological myocardial remodeling and cardiac dysfunction，thus promoting the progression of DCM. Therefore，the restoration of a normal autophagy level is the key means to protect cardiomyocytes and improve the prognosis of DCM. Chinese medicine can regulate autophagy to treat DCM. Specifically，it can promote autophagy （making up for deficiency） or inhibit autophagy （removing excess） to restore the balance of autophagy，thereby alleviating DCM.

During coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic, the treatment of severe trauma has been impacted. The Consensus on emergency surgery and infection prevention and control for severe trauma patients with 2019 novel corona virus pneumonia was published online on February 12, 2020, providing a strong guidance for the emergency treatment of severe trauma and the self-protection of medical staffs in the early stage of the epidemic. With the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council renaming "novel coronavirus pneumonia" to "novel coronavirus infection" and the infection being managed with measures against class B infectious diseases since January 8, 2023, the consensus published in 2020 is no longer applicable to the emergency treatment of severe trauma in the new stage of epidemic prevention and control. In this context, led by the Chinese Traumatology Association, Chinese Trauma Surgeon Association, Trauma Medicine Branch of Chinese International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Traumatology, the Chinese expert consensus on emergency surgery for severe trauma and infection prevention during coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic ( version 2023) is formulated to ensure the effectiveness and safety in the treatment of severe trauma in the new stage. Based on the policy of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council and by using evidence-based medical evidence as well as Delphi expert consultation and voting, 16 recommendations are put forward from the four aspects of the related definitions, infection prevention, preoperative assessment and preparation, emergency operation and postoperative management, hoping to provide a reference for severe trauma care in the new stage of the epidemic prevention and control.

Bipolar disorder （BD） is considered to be mainly related to qi， phlegm， fire and deficiency. Binding constraint of liver qi is the initial cause， while phlegm and qi interact obstruction as well as phlegm and fire interact binding is the key pathogenesis of the transformation between depression and mania， and deficiency of both qi and yin is the main reason of the protracted course of disease. In clinical practice， BD is divided into binding constraint of liver qi pattern， phlegm and qi interact obstruction pattern， phlegm and fire interact binding pattern， and deficiency of both qi and yin pattern， which can be treated with Jinyu Shugan Powder （金玉疏肝散）， Kaiyu Wendan Decoction （开郁温胆汤）， Qingxin Huatan Decoction （清心化痰汤）， and Baihe Shengmai Beverage （百合生脉饮） in their modifications respectively； moreover， Guanye Jinsitao （Herba Hyperici Perforati） is usually used to rectify qi， relieve phlegm and clear heat. It is also suggested to put focus on the prevention and treatment of qi， phlegm and heat simultaneously， and modify the medicinals flexibly in accordance with the pathogenesis evolution and the abnormal exuberance.

Objective:To investigate the effect of conventional treatment plus long-term transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on consciousness recovery in patients with minimally conscious state (MCS) after traumatic brain injury (TBI).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 60 patients with MCS after TBI admitted to Zhejiang Armed Police Corps Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020, including 38 males and 22 females, aged 19-60 years [(45.7±11.4)years]. Course of disease was 3-6 months [(4.6±0.9)months]. Of all, 30 patients received internal medicine, hyperbaric oxygen, rehabilitation and other conventional treatment (conventional treatment group), and 30 patients received tDCS stimulation on the basis of conventional treatment (tDCS treatment group). The tDCS stimulation contained 4 cycles for 28 days with each cycle lasting for 7 days (stimulation for 5 days, rest for 2 days). Coma recovery scale-revised (CRS-R) total score, brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) score and clinical effictive rate (significantly effective+effective) were compared between the two groups before treatment, during 4 cycles of treatment and at 6 months and 12 months after treatment. Complications induced by tDCS were also evaluated.Results:There was no significant difference in CRS-R total score and BAEP score between the two groups before treatment (all P>0.05). CRS-R total score and BAEP score in tDCS treatment group were significantly higher than those in conventional treatment group during 4 cycles of treatment and at 6 months and 12 months after treatment (all P<0.05). CRS-R total score and BAEP score in both groups gradually increased during 4 cycles of treatment and at 6 months and 12 months after treatment (all P<0.05). The clinical effective rate in tDCS treatment group was 73% (22/30) when compared to 57% (17/30) in conventional treatment group ( P<0.05). In tDCS treatment group, 10 patients had local reversible slight redness at the cathodal position, while no other serious adverse effects, such as local burns, ulceration, exudation or epilepsy. Conclusion:Compared with conventional treatment, conventional treatment plus long-term tDCS can be more effective in improving the state of consciousness without serious adverse effects for MCS patients after TBI.

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is a common disease with high incidence rate and mortality worldwide. Atherosclerosis is an important pathological basis for the formation of ischemic cardiovascular diseases such as cardiovascular disease， which is related to inflammation， oxidative stress， apoptosis， vascular endothelial damage， foam cell formation， platelet activation， and so on， involving mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK）， phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B （PI3K/Akt）， cyclic adenosine monophosphate/protein kinase A （cAMP/PKA）， Ras homolog gene family member A （RhoA）/Rho-associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase （ROCK）， nuclear factor-kappa B （NF-κB）， and other signaling pathways. In the past few decades， high-intensity statins were mainly used to treat atherosclerosis by reducing blood lipid levels， which usually caused obvious side effects. Therefore， the development of safer and more effective drugs and treatment modes is the focus of research at this stage. In recent years， Chinese medicine has been playing an increasingly important role in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases in China. There are many studies on the mechanism of Chinese medicine in the prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis， and it is found that a variety of single Chinese medicine regulate the formation process of atherosclerosis by regulating targeted signal molecules. This paper reviewed the research results of related signaling pathways involved in the pathological formation of atherosclerosis and the mechanism of Chinese medicine in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases， thereby providing references for the clinical treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of holographic image navigation in urological laparoscopic and robotic surgery.Methods The data of patients were reviewed retrospectively for whom accepted holographic image navigation laparoscopic and robotic surgery from Jan.2019 to Dec.2019 in Beijing United Family Hospital and other 18 medical centers,including 78 cases of renal tumor,2 cases of bladder cancer,2 cases of adrenal gland tumor,1 cases of renal cyst,1 case of prostate cancer,1 case of sweat gland carcinoma with lymph node metastasis,1 case of pelvic metastasis after radical cystectomy.All the patients underwent operations.In the laparoscopic surgery group,there were 27 cases of partial nephrectomy,1 case of radical prostatectomy,2 cases of radical cystectomy and 2 cases of adrenalectomy.In the da Vinci robotic surgery group of 54 cases,there were 51 cases of partial nephrectomy,1 case of retroperitoneal lymph node dissection,1 case of retroperitoneal bilateral renal cyst deroofing and 1 case of resection of pelvic metastasis.There were 41 partial nephrectomy patients with available clinical data for statistic,with a median age of 53.5 years (range 24-76),including 26 males and 15 females.The median R.E.N.A.L score was 7.8 (range 4-11).Before the operation,the engineers established the holographic image based on the contrast CT images and reports.The surgeon applied the holographic image for preoperative planning.During the operation,the navigation was achieved by real time fusing holographic images with the laparoscopic surgery images in the screen.Results All the procedures had been complete uneventfully.The holographic images helped surgeon in understanding the visual three-dimension structure and relation of vessels supplying tumor or resection tissue,lymph nodes and nerves.By manipulating the holographic images extracorporeally,the fused image guide surgeons about location vessel,lymph node and other important structure and then facilitate the delicate dissection.For the 41 cases with available clinical data including 23 cases of robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy and 18 cases of laparoscopic nephrectomy,the median operation time was 140 (range 50-225) min,the median warm ischemia time was 23 (range 14-60) min,the median blood loss was 80(range 5-1 200) ml.In the robotic surgery group,the median operation time was 140 (range 50-215)min,the median warm i schemia time was 21 (range 17-40)min,the median blood loss was 150(range 30-1 200)ml.In the laparoscopic surgery group,the median operation time was 160(range 80-225)min,the median warm ischemia time was 25 (range 14-60)min,the median blood loss was 50 (range 5-1 200) ml.All the patients had no adjacent organ injury during operation.There were 2 cases with Clavien Ⅱ complications.One required transfusion and the other one suffered hematoma post-operation.However,the tumors were located in the renal hilus for these 2 cases and the R.E.N.A.L scores were both 11.Conclusions Holographic image navigation can help location and recognize important anatomic structures during the surgical procedures..This technique will reduce the tissue injury,decrease the complications and improve the success rate of surgery.

OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical features and genetic mutation in a family affected with non-syndrome X-linked intellectual disability (NS-XLID) using whole exome sequencing (WES).

METHODSMultiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) was applied to screen potential mutations of Fragile X syndrome (FXS). Whole exome sequencing (WES) and Sanger sequencing were screen for pathological mutations.

RESULTSFXS was excluded by MLPA analysis. WES has discovered in the proband an ARX gene mutation c.88G>T, which was confirmed by Sanger sequencing. Combining his clinical phenotype with information from the OMIM database, it was inferred that the ARX mutation probably underlies the NS-XLID in the proband. The same mutation was found in his mother and two uncles but not in his father and sister.

CONCLUSIONWES is capable of revealing the mutation underlying NS-XLID and can facilitate genetic counseling for the affected families.
