Objective To investigate the value of fractional-order calculus(FROC)and continuous-time random-walk(CTRW)diffusion models based on readout segmentation of long variable echo-trains(RESOLVE)in identifying benign and malignant lesions in the head and neck.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 61 patients pathologically confirmed head and neck lesions,including 19 benign lesions(BL)and 42 malignant lesions(ML).The ML were further divided into a lymphoma subgroup(LS)with 9 cases(14 lesions)and a non-lymphoma malignant lesion subgroup(MLS)with 33 cases.The parameters of DFROC,βFROC,μFROC,DCTRW,αCTRW and βCTRW were obtained from the two diffusion models;Independent sample t-tests or U tests were used to compare the differences in each parameter between benign and malignant groups and among various subgroups,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the diagnostic efficacy of each parameter.Area under the curve(AUC)was compared by DeLong test.Results DFROC,μFROC,DCTRW and αCTRW showed significant differences between benign and malignant,BL and LS,BL and MLS and LS and MLS,with αCTRW showed the highest diagnostic efficacy;βFROC showed differences between BL and LS,BL and MLS,whileβCTRW did not show differences between benign and malignant groups,and among subgroups.Conclusion FROC and CTRW diffusion models based on RESOLVE can distinguish between benign and malignant head and neck lesions with multiple parameters,and provide metrics reflecting tissue heterogeneity.

Objective:Based on the best evidence, formulate the review indicators to promote the initiation and establishment of maternal lactation and carry out clinical review, analyze the barriers and promoting factors of the clinical application of evidence, and formulate countermeasures.Methods:Evidence-based nursing research was used to identify clinical problems, build evidence-based group, systematically search, evaluate and synthesize evidence. On September 1,2023 to December 31 in Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University document and delivery of maternal investigation, in Ottawa research application mode as a guide, based on the evidence to review indicators and review method, clear clinical status and evidence gap, combined with the stakeholders interview, using content analysis to analyze barriers and promoting factors, to formulate action countermeasures.Results:In this study, 140 pregnant women were finally included for clinical review, aged from 22 to 42 (30.13 ± 3.69) years. A total of 23 pieces of best evidence were incorporated, leading to the establishment of 29 review indicators. Among these, 20 review indicators showed compliance rates below 60%. The main obstacles based on the results of review and interviews with stakeholders: the evidence content covered perinatal stages but lacked specificity and practical applicability; nurses had insufficient knowledge and faced increased workloads; pregnant/postpartum women lacked essential knowledge and skills, with delayed resolution of lactation issues; the practice environment lacked evidence-based implementation protocols, specialized assessment tools, and professional lactation consultant teams, etc. Promoting factors: the project team had rich experience in evidence transformation; the reform aligned with national policies, high engagement from departmental leaders, and standardized management systems for evidence-based projects in the nursing department; strong motivation among pregnant/postpartum women; the hospital was an infant-friendly hospital with talents needed for evidence transformation.Conclusions:There is a big gap between the clinical status and the evidence of promoting the initiation and establishment of lactation, so nursing staff should make full use of the promoting factors and formulate countermeasures according to the obstacle factors, so as to provide reference for promoting the initiation of lactation and the establishment of relevant evidence to clinical transformation.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of transurethral water vapor thermal therapy(WVTT)using the Rezūm system for benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)in the real world.Methods:A total of 181 patients with BPH were recruited from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from August 2022 to December 2023,of whom 173 patients were treated with WVTT using the Rezūm system,while 8 patients were treated with WVTT combined with TURP.They were followed up at 1,3,and 6 months postoperatively to assess changes in the IPSS,QoL,Qmax,IIEF-5,and the occurrence of any complications.Results:All 181 surgeries in this group were successfully completed.The operation time of the Rezūm system was(4.6±1.4)mi-nutes.The postoperative indwelling catheterization time was(8.0±2.1)days.With a follow-up of at least 6 months,there was a significant decrease in PV,IPSS and QoL,and a remarkable increase had been found in Qmax as well(P＜0.05).There was no sig-nificant difference in IIEF-5 before and after the operation(P＞0.05).In this groups of patients,postoperative complications mainly included 95 cases(52.5％)of gross hematuria,6 cases(3.3％)of retrograde ejaculation,5 cases(2.8％)of urethral stricture,4 cases(2.2％)of prostatitis,and 10 cases(5.5％)of urinary tract infection.Four cases(2.2％)underwent surgical retreatment for BPH after surgery.Conclusion:In the real world,the use of Rezūm thermal steam ablation system for the treatment of BPH has sat-isfactory short-term effect,short surgical time,and significant improvement in IPSS,QoL,Qmax,which does not adversely affect sexu-al function.

Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.

Neonatal sepsis is a global health problem that seriously affects the body health and life safety of newborns. It has a higher incidence in preterm infants,especially for early-onset sepsis (EOS) within 72 hours of birth. The diagnosis of neonatal EOS requires a series of examinations,and early and accurate diagnosis can improve clinical outcomes and reduce antibiotic overuse in a timely manner. At present,the commonly used biomarkers and traditional blood culture methods for EOS diagnosis have certain shortcomings,so it is urgent to find new molecular diagnostic methods. This article summarizes and compares the early and novel diagnostic methods of neonatal EOS,in order to provide a reference for clinical practice.
