Objective To understand the antibody levels of diphtheria and tetanus among healthy population in Shanghai Pudong New Area, and to provide a scientific basis for improving the vaccine immunization strategy. Methods Random sampling was used to select healthy people of all ages in 16 communities in Shanghai Pudong New Area from 2018 to 2024, and serum samples were collected and tested for serum anti-diphtheria and tetanus toxin IgG antibodies by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method to analyze the antibody positivity rate (≥0.1 IU/ml) and the geometric mean concentration (GMC) of antibodies. Results A total of 3 312 serum samples were included, with a male-to-female ratio of 0.76:1, and 53.77% were local residents. The seropositivity rates and geometric mean concentrations (GMC) of both diphtheria and tetanus antibodies generally declined with increasing age, but exhibited a transient rebound in the 7y-. A total of 1 175 individuals (35.48%) were seropositive for diphtheria, with a GMC of 0.054 IU/mL. For tetanus, 988 individuals (29.83%) were seropositive, with a GMC of 0.033 IU/mL. Significant differences in seropositivity rates (χ2diphtheria=950.005,χ2tetanus=1 324.393) and GMC (Hdiphtheria=1027.160,Htetanus=1 142.007) were observed among different age groups (P<0.001). Significant differences in seropositivity rates (χ2diphtheria=950.005,χ2tetanus=1324.393) and GMC (Hdiphtheria=1027.160,Htetanus=1142.007) were also found across different years (P<0.001). Conclusion The prevalence of diphtheria and tetanus antibodies in the healthy population of Pudong New Area is relatively low, particularly among adults over 20 years of age with inadequate immunization. This underscores the need to reinforce the National Immunization Program (NIP) vaccine specifications for children under 6 years of age and implement an immunization strategy for adolescents or adults against diphtheria and tetanus.

Objective To evaluate the effect of remimazolam premedication on emergence delirium (ED) in children undergoing tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy. Methods Children aged 3-6 years who underwent tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy with general anesthesia in Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Xiamen University from July 2023 to September 2024 were randomly divided into 0.1 mg/kg remimazolam group (group R1), 0.2 mg/kg remimazolam group group R2) and normal saline group (group P). Three groups were sedated preoperatively with remimazolam 0.1 mg/kg, remimazolam 0.2 mg/kg and normal saline, respectively. The primary outcome was the incidence of ED. The secondary outcomes included the parental separation anxiety scale (PSAS) score when entering the operating room, the induction compliance checklist (ICC) score at induction, the anesthetic recovery time, the incidence of rescue propofol for ED, the face, legs, activity, cry, and consolability (FLACC) score and the incidence of postoperative pain during the recovery period, the incidence of adverse reactions during the operation and postoperatively, and the incidence of negative postoperative behavioral changes (NPOBCs) at first day, 7th day, 30th day postoperatively. Results A total of 119 children completed the study, including 41 children in group R1, 38 children in group R2, and 40 children ingroup P. The incidence of ED and propofol rescue, the PSAS scores and ICC scores of group R1 and R2 were lower than that of group P (P<0.05), and the above results in group R2 was better than those in group R1 (P<0.05). The FLACC score, the incidence of postoperative pain, and the incidence of adverse reactions among the three groups had no difference (P>0.05). The incidence of NPOBCs at 1st day and 7th day postoperatively in group R1 and group R2 was lower than that in group P (P<0.05), but no difference was detected at 30th day postoperatively among the three groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Remimazolam used for preoperative sedation could reduce the incidence of ED in children undergoing tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy, and had a positive effect on alleviating the preoperative anxiety and preventing NPOBCs.

BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of subsequent radiotherapy (RT) following first-line treatment with durvalumab plus chemotherapy in patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC).
METHODS:
A total of 122 patients with ES-SCLC from three hospitals during July 2019 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) analysis was performed to address potential confounding factors. The primary focus of our evaluation was to assess the impact of RT on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
RESULTS:
After IPTW analysis, 49 patients received durvalumab plus platinum-etoposide (EP) chemotherapy followed by RT (Durva + EP + RT) and 72 patients received immunochemotherapy (Durva + EP). The median OS was 17.2 months vs . 12.3 months (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.38, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.17-0.85, P = 0.020), and the median PFS was 8.9 months vs . 5.9 months (HR: 0.56, 95% CI: 0.32-0.97, P = 0.030) in Durva + EP + RT and Durva + EP groups, respectively. Thoracic radiation therapy (TRT) resulted in longer OS (17.2 months vs . 14.7 months) and PFS (9.1 months vs . 7.2 months) compared to RT directed to other metastatic sites. Among patients with oligo-metastasis, RT also showed significant benefits, with a median OS of 17.4 months vs . 13.7 months and median PFS of 9.8 months vs . 5.9 months compared to no RT. Continuous durvalumab treatment beyond progression (TBP) prolonged OS compared to patients without TBP, in both the Durva + EP + RT (NA vs . 15.8 months, HR: 0.48, 95% CI: 0.14-1.63, P = 0.238) and Durva + EP groups (12.3 months vs . 4.3 months, HR: 0.29, 95% CI: 0.10-0.81, P = 0.018). Grade 3 or 4 adverse events occurred in 13 (26.5%) and 13 (18.1%) patients, respectively, in the two groups; pneumonitis was mostly low-grade.
CONCLUSION
Addition of RT after first-line immunochemotherapy significantly improved survival outcomes with manageable toxicity in ES-SCLC.

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, computational pathology has been seamlessly integrated into the entire clinical workflow, which encompasses diagnosis, treatment, prognosis, and biomarker discovery. This integration has significantly enhanced clinical accuracy and efficiency while reducing the workload for clinicians. Traditionally, research in this field has depended on the collection and labeling of large datasets for specific tasks, followed by the development of task-specific computational pathology models. However, this approach is labor intensive and does not scale efficiently for open-set identification or rare diseases. Given the diversity of clinical tasks, training individual models from scratch to address the whole spectrum of clinical tasks in the pathology workflow is impractical, which highlights the urgent need to transition from task-specific models to foundation models (FMs). In recent years, pathological FMs have proliferated. These FMs can be classified into three categories, namely, pathology image FMs, pathology image-text FMs, and pathology image-gene FMs, each of which results in distinct functionalities and application scenarios. This review provides an overview of the latest research advancements in pathological FMs, with a particular emphasis on their applications in oncology. The key challenges and opportunities presented by pathological FMs in precision oncology are also explored.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the relationship between the trajectories of serum potassium changes after intensive care unit (ICU) admission and 30-day death risk in patients with sepsis.
METHODS:
A retrospective cohort study was conducted, including adult patients with sepsis admitted to the comprehensive ICU, medical intensive care unit (MICU) and emergency intensive care unit (EICU) of Guizhou Medical University Affiliated Hospital from January 2020 to January 2024. The patients who had a minimum of 5 days' hospitalisation in the ICU and who had at least 7 consecutive days of the serum potassium measurements were classified into five trajectories groups according to group-based trajectory modelling (GBTM) using SAS software. This was based on tendency changes in serum potassium levels in patients after admission to the ICU, which was categorized as follows: slowly increased from a low level group, slowly increased from a medium level of normal range group, slowly decreased from a medium level of normal range group, slowly decreased from a high level group, and slowly increased from a high level of normal range group. The patient's gender, age, medical history, and white blood cell count (WBC), platelet count (PLT), procalcitonin (PCT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), blood sodium, and serum creatinine (SCr) at the time of admission to the ICU were collected. At the same time, the patient's worst sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score within 24 hours of admission to the ICU, length of ICU stay, and 30-day outcome were record. The differences in clinical data among different groups of patients were compared. The 30-day cumulative survival rates of the various serum potassium trajectories were plotted using Kaplan-Meier survival curves, the groups were then compared using the Log-Rank test. A multivariate Cox proportional risk regression analysis was developed to evaluate the independent effect of serum potassium trajectory on 30-day death risk.
RESULTS:
Finally, 342 ICU sepsis patients were enrolled, of which 42 patients in the slowly increased from a low level group (12.28%), 127 patients in the slowly increased from a medium level of normal range group (37.14%), 118 patients in the slowly decreased from a medium level of normal range group (34.50%), 28 patients in the slowly decreased from a high level group (8.19%), and 27 patients in the slowly increased from a high level of normal range group (7.89%). Except for age and APTT differences, there were no statistically significant differences in other clinical characteristics among the patients in the different serum potassium trajectories groups. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that there was statistically significant difference in the 30-day cumulative survival rate among the patients in the different serum potassium trajectories groups (Log-Rank test: χ2 = 14.696, P = 0.005), with the lowest in the slowly increased from a high level of normal range group (39.3%). Multivariate Cox proportional risk regression analysis showed that the patients with the serum potassium trajectory of slowly increased from a high level of normal range had the highest 30-day death risk [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.341, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 1.049-5.226, P = 0.038]. This association persisted after adjustment for variables such as gender, age, medical history, SOFA score, WBC, PLT, PCT, APTT, PT, blood sodium, and SCr (HR = 3.058, 95%CI was 1.249-7.488, P = 0.014).
CONCLUSION
Compared with the patients whose serum potassium fluctuated within the normal range, the sepsis patients in the ICU with a serum potassium trajectory that slowly increased from a high level of normal range had a significantly higher 30-day death risk.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the association between ABO blood types and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) risk.
METHODS:
A prospective birth cohort study was conducted. ABO blood types were determined using the slide method. GDM diagnosis was based on a 75-g, 2-h oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) according to the criteria of the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups. Logistic regression was applied to calculate the odds ratios ( ORs) and 95% confidence intervals ( CIs) between ABO blood types and GDM risk.
RESULTS:
A total of 30,740 pregnant women with a mean age of 31.81 years were enrolled in this study. The ABO blood types distribution was: type O (30.99%), type A (26.58%), type B (32.20%), and type AB (10.23%). GDM was identified in 14.44% of participants. Using blood type O as a reference, GDM risk was not significantly higher for types A ( OR = 1.05) or B ( OR = 1.04). However, women with type AB had a 19% increased risk of GDM ( OR = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.05-1.34; P < 0.05), even after adjusting for various factors. This increased risk for type AB was consistent across subgroup and sensitivity analyses.
CONCLUSION
The ABO blood types may influence GDM risk, with type AB associated with a higher risk. Incorporating it-either as a single risk factor or in combination with other known factors-could help identify individuals at risk for GDM before or during early pregnancy.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.
