Objective To investigate the clinical application of three-dimensional magnetic resonance(MR)visualization in difficult laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Methods A total of 100 patients with gallstones who were admitted to the Second People's Hospital of Shantou from January 2022 to December 2023 were selected as research objects.The patients met the criteria of"difficult gallbladder"and were assigned to two groups according to random number table.The control group(n=50)were treated with routine laparoscopic cholecystectomy.In the observation group(n=50),laparoscopic cholecystectomy was assisted by MR 3D visualization model.Surgical indexes,pain within 1 day after surgery,risk of intraoperative trauma,and incidence of postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.Results Surgical indexes and recovery indexes in the observation group were superior to those in the control group(P<0.05).The visual analogue scale(VAS)score within 1 d after operation was significantly lower than that before operation in both groups,and the improvement of VAS score in the observation group was better than that in the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of gallbladder rupture(0.00%vs 10.00%)and liver margin injury(0.00%vs 8.00%)in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of complications in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(2.00%vs 14.00%,P<0.05).Conclusion The construction of MR 3D visualization model can provide clearer surgical field for laparoscopic cholecystectomy,and enable the operator to clarify the anatomical structure of the gallbladder,avoid surgical trauma,improve the postoperative recovery,alleviate postoperative pain,and reduce the risk of complications.

Objective:To explore the related factors of vascular complications after liver transplantation in children.Methods:This is a retrospective case series research. The clinical data of 89 pediatric liver transplant patients admitted to the Organ Transplantation Center, the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2016 to March 2024 were collected retrospectively. This study included 44 males and 45 females,aged from 4 months to 17 years. The ratio of graft to recipient weight was 0.6% to 7.7%. The primary diseases included 48 cases of biliary atresia and 41 cases of non-biliary atresia. The Wilcoxon rank sum test, χ2 test, and Fisher′s exact probability method were used for data analysis. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the related factors of vascular complications. Results:All 89 children with liver transplantation completed surgery successfully. There were 8 cases of arterial complications after surgery, including 6 cases of hepatic artery thrombosis and 2 cases of hepatic artery stenosis. There were 16 cases of portal vein complications after surgery, including 9 cases of portal vein stenosis and 7 cases of portal vein thrombosis. The results of univariate analysis showed that the age of the recipient ≤1 year was the relevant factor for hepatic arterial complications( χ 2=4.772, P=0.029). The age of the recipient ≤1 year, the age of the donor, the hepatic phase, and the time of cold ischemia were the relevant factors for the occurrence of portal vein complications( χ 2=7.270, Z=388.500, Z=838.000, Z=894.500;all P<0.05). The results of multivariate analysis showed that age(≤1 year vs. >1 year) and duration of cold ischemia(every additional 1 hour) were independent related factors for portal vein complications after liver transplantation in children(both P<0.05). Conclusion:Children aged ≤1 year and with prolonged cold ischemia are more likely to develop portal vein complications after liver transplantation.

Objective:To summarize the surgical management experience on intestinal fistula(IF)patients with phasedtherapy and staged operation.Methods:Retrospectively analyzing the clin-ical data of 255 IF patientsin Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital from January 2016 to December 2019,including age,gender,primary disease,IF causes,IF locations,IF numbers,IF natures,IF times,IF diagnoses and evaluations,nutritional risks,nutritional support,and infection statuses.Ac-cording to the pathophysiological characteristics of IF patients,IF therapy included three phases:Phase Ⅰ(IF acute onset),Phase Ⅱ(IF stable maintenance),Phase Ⅲ(IF deterministic operation).The IF deterministic operation included one-stage operation and multi-stage operation.The relationship between strategies and effects were analyzed in each treatment stage.Results:All 141 patients in Phase Ⅰ entered into Phase Ⅱ,in which 112 cases received complete treatment,28 cases gave up,and 1 case died.In 112 caseswho received complete treatment,75 cases were cured(83.7％),37 cases remained infected.The 37 cases that remained infected were combined with the 114 cases who were primarily hospitalized at Phase Ⅲ,were classified into 151 cases who received IF deter-ministic operations,in which 134 cases received stage Ⅰ surgery,and 17 cases received multi-stage surgery.138 cases were cured(91.4％).Conclusion:Intestinal fistula patients could exhibit a better cure ratio throughphasestherapy,which include the acute onset phase,stable maintenance phase,and deterministic operation phase.It is important to classify IF patients into the correct phase and conduct the corresponding treatment.The staged operations are also the key to the intestinal fistula-surgical strategy.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of lung recruitment maneuvers combined with individualized positive end-expiratory pressure(PEEP) on the degree of postoperative atelectasis in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery.Methods:One hundred and forty-three elderly patients, aged ≥65 yr, with body mass index of 18.5-30.0 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective laparoscopic surgery, were assigned to either individualized PEEP combined with recruitment maneuvers (group Ⅱ) or fixed PEEP (group Ⅰ) using a random number table method. PEEP was maintained at 6 cmH 2O starting from the beginning of procedure until the end of the procedure in group I. Individualized PEEP titration was performed after induction of anesthesia in group Ⅱ. The primary outcome measure was the 12-zone lung ultrasound score at 15 min after tracheal extubation. Other outcome measures were the occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications within 7 days after surgery, Quality of Recovery-15 scale score on 3rd day after surgery, rate of unplanned admission to intensive care units, length of hospital stay, incidence of intraoperative hypoxemia, usage rate of intraoperative vasoactive drugs, and incidence of postoperative hypotension. Results:Compared with group Ⅰ, the lung ultrasound score, driving pressure and postoperative pulmonary complications were significantly decreased, the dynamic lung compliance was increased ( P<0.05 or 0.01), and no significant changes were found in the other parameters in group Ⅱ ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Individualized PEEP combined with recruitment maneuvers can reduce the degree of postoperative atelectasis in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery.

Retroactive signing of economic contracts poses significant economic risks and potential hazards, and may harm the interests of the hospital and trigger corruption risks. A certain tertiary public hospital analyzed 41 backdated contracts out of 282 economic contracts signed from January to June 2023 to determine the reasons for contract retrosigning, and proposed targeted countermeasures in terms of personnel management, emergency procurement project management, and management of project initiation, contract drafting, approval, and signing. Since September 2023, by improving relevant management systems, optimizing and standardizing various processes, and strengthening the application of performance assessments, the issue of economic contracts retrosigning has been effectively resolved, reducing the risk hazards in the hospital′s economic activities, which can provide a reference for the economic contract management of public hospitals.

The comparison between traditional Chinese medicine Jinzhen oral liquid (JZOL) and Western medicine in treating children with acute bronchitis (AB) showed encouraging outcomes. This trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of the JZOL for improving cough and expectoration in children with AB. 480 children were randomly assigned to take JZOL or ambroxol hydrochloride and clenbuterol hydrochloride oral solution for 7 days. The primary outcome was time-to-cough resolution. The median time-to-cough resolution in both groups was 5.0 days and the antitussive onset median time was only 1 day. This randomized controlled trial showed that JZOL was not inferior to cough suppressant and phlegm resolving western medicine in treating cough and sputum and could comprehensively treat respiratory and systemic discomfort symptoms. Combined with clinical trials, the mechanism of JZOL against AB was uncovered by network target analysis, it was found that the pathways in TRP channels like IL-1β/IL1R/TRPV1/TRPA1, NGF/TrkA/TRPV1/TRPA1, and PGE2/EP/PKA/TRPV1/TRPA1 might play important roles. Animal experiments further confirmed that inflammation and the immune regulatory effect of JZOL in the treatment of AB were of vital importance and TRP channels were the key mechanism of action.

Knowledge about the neuronal dynamics and the projectome are both essential for understanding how the neuronal network functions in concert. However, it remains challenging to obtain the neural activity and the brain-wide projectome for the same neurons, especially for neurons in subcortical brain regions. Here, by combining in vivo microscopy and high-definition fluorescence micro-optical sectioning tomography, we have developed strategies for mapping the brain-wide projectome of functionally relevant neurons in the somatosensory cortex, the dorsal hippocampus, and the substantia nigra pars compacta. More importantly, we also developed a strategy to achieve acquiring the neural dynamic and brain-wide projectome of the molecularly defined neuronal subtype. The strategies developed in this study solved the essential problem of linking brain-wide projectome to neuronal dynamics for neurons in subcortical structures and provided valuable approaches for understanding how the brain is functionally organized via intricate connectivity patterns.

The paper introduces professor ZHUANG Li-xing's clinical experience in treatment of dyskinesia of Parkinson's disease with acupuncture at triple-acupoint prescription. In pathogenesis, dyskinesia of Parkinson's disease refers to yang deficiency and disturbing wind. In treatment, acupuncture focuses on warming yang, promoting the circulation of the governor vessel, regulating the spirit and stopping trembling; and Baihui (GV 20), Suliao (GV 25) and Dingchanxue (Extra) are selected to be "trembling relief needling". In combination with Jin's three needling, named "three-trembling needling" "three-governor-vessel needling" and "three-spasm needling", the triple-acupoint prescription is composed. To ensure the favorable therapeutic effect, this prescription is modified according to the symptoms and the specific techniques of acupuncture are combined such as conducting qi, harmonizing yin and yang, and manipulating gently for reinforcing and reducing.
