Neurocritical care involves complex pathophysiological mechanisms, and its incidence is higher, injuries are more severe, and treatment is more challenging in high-altitude environments. This consensus, based on the latest domestic and international evidence-based medical data, establishes a standardized, goal-oriented framework for neurocritical care management applicable in high-altitude regions and nationwide. The consensus was developed following international standards for evidence quality assessment and underwent two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, resulting in 32 recommendation statements covering three parts: management systems, monitoring and assessment, and core strategies. Key updates include: advocating for the establishment of independent neurocritical care units and implementing precise tiered diagnosis and treatment based on the "Five Differences in Critical Care" concept; constructing a "trinity" multimodal brain monitoring system centered on cerebral blood flow, cerebral oxygenation, and brain function, emphasizing routine bedside transcranial Doppler ultrasound, cerebral oximetry, and continuous electroencephalography monitoring; shifting management strategies from mild hypothermia therapy to targeted temperature management, and defining the "446" target management pathway for the supercritical stage; emphasizing the assessment of static and dynamic cerebrovascular autoregulation functions through multimodal methods to achieve individualized optimal mean arterial pressure management; elevating cerebrospinal fluid management goals to the level of "glymphatic system" function maintenance; implementing a multidisciplinary collaborative, whole-process management model focusing on patients' long-term neurological functional outcomes; de-escalation criteria include multidimensional indicators such as recovery of brain structure, restoration of cerebrovascular autoregulation, improvement in cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, and reduction in biomarker levels; and integrating cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence into post-critical care management and rehabilitation planning. This consensus systematically integrates the entire process of neurocritical care management, reflecting the modern connotation of goal-oriented, dynamic, and multimodal integration in neurocritical care medicine. It aims to adapt to new trends such as deepening understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms, the integration of medicine and engineering, and the empowerment of artificial intelligence, thereby further advancing the discipline of critical care medicine.

Objective To analyze the postoperative complications and survival outcomes of elderly patients with renal cell carcinoma undergoing laparoscopic surgery, and to identify the influencing factors, so as to provide reference for improving the safety of laparoscopic surgery in such patients. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical, surgical, and pathological data of 153 patients aged ≥75 years who underwent laparoscopic nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma at our hospital during 2012 and 2025.Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors influencing postoperative complications, and a nomogram was constructed and validated to predict the complications.Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw the survival curve, and the effects of different surgical approaches on the prognosis and the survival difference in the age subgroups (75-＜80 years, ≥80 years) were analyzed.Cox regression analyses were conducted to determine factors affecting survival outcomes. Results Among the 153 patients, 15 developed postoperative complications, including 5 severe cases. Multivariate logistic regression identified Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) ≥3 and prolonged operation time as independent risk factors for postoperative complications (P＜0.05).The C-index of the logistic regression model constructed based on these factors (age, CCI≥3 and operation time) was 0.77 (95%CI:0.64-0.90), with an average absolute error of 1.6%.Subgroup analysis revealed superior overall survival in patients aged 75-＜80 years undergoing partial nephrectomy compared to radical nephrectomy (P=0.005 6).No statistically significant difference in overall survival was observed among patients ≥80 years who received different surgical approaches (P=0.062).Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified preoperative low albumin levels, preoperative renal insufficiency, tumor diameter＞4 cm, and pathological stage as independent risk factors for overall survival (P＜0.05). Conclusion Laparoscopic surgery is safe and effective for elderly patients with renal cell carcinoma, with survival outcomes correlated to nutritional status, renal function, tumor size and pathological staging.Patients aged ≥80 years still derive surgical benefit, and no survival differences exist between different surgical approaches in this age group.

Vascular structure pattern，namely the maturity，morphology and distribution of blood vessels，as one of the pathological features of renal cell carcinoma (RCC)，cannot be ignored when the prognosis is concerned.The current mainstream classification of vascular structure patterns includes pseudoacini，Golgi，lacunar and dispersion patterns.Many studies have shown that the vascular structure patterns in RCC are closely related to the diagnosis and prognosis.Early features such as dendritic penetration of the endothelium contribute to the differential diagnosis of RCC，while different vascular structure patterns are not only related to tumor grade，but also affect the responsiveness of targeted therapy and prognosis.Evaluating these vascular structural patterns can help to understand the biological behaviors of tumors and guide the treatment options，but a unified assessment of vascular structural patterns is still lacking.This paper reviews the research progress on the relationship between vascular structure patterns and RCC prognosis，aiming to provide clinical reference.

This paper reviews the published articles of recent years on the application of deep learning methods in automatic localization of acupoint, and summarizes it from 3 key links, i.e. the dataset construction, the neural network model design, and the accuracy evaluation of acupoint localization. The significant progress has been obtained in the field of deep learning for acupoint localization, but the scale of acupoint detection needs to be expanded and the precision, the generalization ability, and the real-time performance of the model be advanced. The future research should focus on the support of standardized datasets, and the integration of 3D modeling and multimodal data fusion, so as to increase the accuracy and strengthen the personalization of acupoint localization.

Osteoporosis is a prevalent skeletal condition characterized by reduced bone mass and strength, leading to increased fragility. Buqi-Tongluo (BQTL) decoction, a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescription, has yet to be fully evaluated for its potential in treating bone diseases such as osteoporosis. To investigate the mechanism by which BQTL decoction inhibits osteoclast differentiation in vitro and validate these findings through in vivo experiments. We employed MTS assays to assess the potential proliferative or toxic effects of BQTL on bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) at various concentrations. TRAcP experiments were conducted to examine BQTL's impact on osteoclast differentiation. RT-PCR and Western blot analyses were utilized to evaluate the relative expression levels of osteoclast-specific genes and proteins under BQTL stimulation. Finally, in vivo experiments were performed using an osteoporosis model to further validate the in vitro findings. This study revealed that BQTL suppressed receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis and osteoclast resorption activity in vitro in a dose-dependent manner without observable cytotoxicity. The inhibitory effects of BQTL on osteoclast formation and function were attributed to the downregulation of NFATc1 and c-fos activity, primarily through attenuation of the MAPK, NF-κB, and Calcineurin signaling pathways. BQTL's inhibitory capacity was further examined in vivo using an ovariectomized (OVX) rat model, demonstrating a strong protective effect against bone loss. BQTL may serve as an effective therapeutic TCM for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis and the alleviation of bone loss induced by estrogen deficiency and related conditions.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the expression of human leukocyte antigen class I(HLA-I)and programmed cell death ligand 1(PD-L1)with clinicopathological features and cellular immune infiltration.Methods A total of 150 patients with bladder cancer diagnosed and treated in Anhui Provincial Hospital from May 2020 to April 2023 were retrospectively selected as the study objects.The positive expression rates and positive scores of HLA-I and PD-L1 were compared between cancerous tissues and adjacent tissues.The positive scores of HLA-I and PD-L1 in cancer tissues of patients with different clinical characteristics were compared,and the correlation between HLA-I,PD-L1 and clinical characteristics of patients with bladder cancer was analyzed by Kendall's tau-b method.Logistic regression model was used to establish the combined model parameters of HLA-I and PD-L1 positive scores,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the HLA-I and PD-L1 positive scores and the area under the curve(AUC),sensitivity and specificity of the combined diagnosis of bladder cancer.Results The positive expression rate of HLA-I in cancer tissues was lower than that in paracancer tissues[38.67%(58/150)vs 81.33%(122/150)],while the positive expression rate of PD-L1 was higher than that in paracancer tissues[57.33%(86/150)vs 14.00%(21/150)],and the differences were statistically siginficant(χ2=56.889,61.377,all P<0.05).The HLA-I positive score of cancer tissues was lower than that of paracancer tissues[2.00(1.00,3.00)vs 3.00(3.00,5.00)],while the PD-L1 positive score was higher than that of paracancer tissues[3.00(2.00,5.00)vs 2.00(1.00,2.00)],and the fifferences were statistically significant(Z=-8.409,-6.346,all P<0.05).There was no significant difference in HLA-I and PD-L1 positive scores among different sex,age and tumor diameter(ZHLA-1=-1.834,-0.622,-0.543;ZPD-L1=0.811,0.812,0.919,all P＞0.05).The difference of HLA-I and PD-L1 positive scores among different pathological stages,lymph node metastasis,differentiation degree,CD4+,CD8+and CD68+were statistically significant(ZHLA-1=-7.034～3.814;ZPD-L1=-4.479～3.257,all P＜0.05).Kendall's tau-b correlation analysis showed that HLA-I was negatively correlated with pathological stage,lymph node metastasis,degree of differentiation,and positively correlated with negative infiltration of CD4+,CD8+and CD68+(r=-0.528～-0.286,all P<0.05).PD-L1 was positively correlated with pathological stage,lymph node metastasis,degree of differentiation and negatively correlated with negative infiltration of CD4+,CD8+and CD68+(r=-0.243～0.334,all P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the positive scores of HLA-I and PD-L1 and the AUC values of the combined diagnosis of bladder cancer were 0.773,0.702 and 0.856,respectively.Sensitivity was 61.30%,57.30%and 82.00%.The specificity was 81.30%,86.00%and 73.30%.Conclusion The expression of HLA-I and PD-L1 is abnormal in patients with bladder cancer,and their expression is affected by the positive infiltration of immune cells.Observing the positive expression of HLA-I and PD-L1 is beneficial to provide guidance for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To analyze the imaging features of cerebral small vessel disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus by multimodal MRI.Methods The clinical data of 160 patients with cerebral small vessel disease admitted to our hospital from January to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.According to whether they were complicated with type 2 diabetes mellitus,they were divided into the diabetic group and the non-diabetic group,with 80 cases in each group.Both groups underwent multimodal MRI scans.And the severity of lacunar infarction,the severity of subcortical and periventricular white matter lesions,white matter integral and cerebral microbleeds of patients in the two groups were compared.Results The severity of lacunar infarction(χ2=34.076,P=0.001),subcortical white matter lesions(χ2=25.000,P=0.001),periventricular white matter lesions(χ2=22.895,P=0.001)and white matter integral(t=12.370,P=0.001)of patients in the diabetic group were significantly higher than those in the non-diabetic group.No cerebral microbleeds were detected in either group of patients.Conclusion Patients with cerebral small vessel disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus show characteristic multimodal MRI changes.The increase in the number of lacunar infarction lesions and the aggravation of white matter lesions can be used as the characteristic imaging basis for the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus related cerebral small vessel disease.

Objective:To investigate alterations in the immune lineage of T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T-LGLL) at the single-cell transcriptome level and to elucidate its pathogenic mechanisms.Methods:Peripheral blood samples were collected from 5 T-LGLL patients before and after treatment (from June 2019 to December 2020) and 3 healthy controls at the Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, CAMS & PUMC. Single-cell transcriptome sequencing libraries were prepared and sequenced using 10× Genomics technology. Differentially expressed genes in immune cells were compared between patients and healthy donors, followed by pathway enrichment analyses.Results:Profiling 67,237 immune cells revealed that, in T-LGLL: 1) Effector CD8+ T cells exhibited increased numbers, enhanced cytotoxicity, and greater proliferative capacity. Following effective immunosuppressive therapy, both the proliferative capacity and effector functions of these cells significantly decreased ( P<0.05). 2) The proportion of regulatory T (Treg) cells was reduced, accompanied by increased apoptosis. After effective immunosuppressive therapy leading to remission, Treg cell proportions increased, and apoptotic pathways were downregulated ( P<0.05). 3) Antigen-presenting cells (APCs) showed enhanced functionality. Monocytes and dendritic cells were enriched in antigen synthesis and presentation pathways, while B cells displayed increased antigen-binding capacity and were enriched in pathways related to T-cell activation ( P<0.05). 4) Natural killer (NK) cells exhibited attenuated cytotoxic function but demonstrated an enhanced regulatory capacity over T cells ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:T-LGLL patients present a characteristic immunological profile marked by an imbalance in immune homeostasis. This profile includes abnormal activation and expansion of effector CD8 + T cells, and a reduction in Treg cell numbers accompanied by functional impairment. Furthermore, APCs and NK cells were found to positively regulate T-lymphocyte activation, differentiation, and proliferation.

Objective:To establish a rapid method for the determination of glyphosate and glufosinate residues in plasma samples by solid-phase extraction-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (SPE-LC-MS/MS) .Methods:In March 2024, plasma samples were extracted and protein precipitated with methanol and purified using a weak cation exchange (WCX) SPE cartridge. Then the samples were separated on a Dikma Polyamino HILIC column (150 mm×2.0 mm, 5 μm) with a gradient elution of 1.0 mmol/L ammonium fluoride aqueous solution (pH=11) and acetonitrile as mobile phases. Analysis was performed using an electrospray ionization source (ESI) in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode with internal standard quantification. The method's linearity, detection limits, spiked recovery and precision were then evaluated.Results:Glyphosate and glufosinate exhibited good linearity in the concentration range of 1.0-200.0 μg/L, with correlation coefficients of 0.9986-0.9992. The limits of detection (LODs) of glyphosate and glufosinate were 0.5 and 1.0 μg/L, respectively. At low, medium and high spiked concentrations, the spiked recovery rates and precision for glyphosate and glufosinate in plasma ranged from 92.5% to 113.2% and 3.01% to 11.23%, respectively.Conclusion:The SPE-LC-MS/MS method is simple, rapid, sensitive and accurate, and is suitable for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of glyphosate and glufosinate in plasma from poisoned patients.
