PURPOSE:
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant public health issue that impacts individuals all over the world and is one of the main causes of mortality and morbidity. Decompressive craniectomy is the usual course of treatment. Basal cisternostomy has been shown to be highly effective as an alternative procedure to decompressive craniectomy.
METHODS:
We conducted a retrospective cohort of patients who received surgery for severe TBI between January 2019 and March 2023. Inclusion criterias were patients between the ages of 18 and 70 years who met the diagnostic criteria for severe TBI at first presentation and who underwent surgical intervention. The exclusion criteria were patients who have severe multiple injuries at the time of admission; preoperative intracranial pressure > 60 mmHg; cognitive impairment before the onset of the disease; hematologic disorders; or impaired functioning of the heart, liver, kidneys, or other visceral organs. Depending on the surgical approach, the patients were categorized into decompressive craniectomy group as well as basal cisternostomy group. General data and postoperative indicators, including Glasgow coma scale, intracranial pressure, etc., were recorded for both groups of patients. Among them, the Glasgow outcome scale extended assessment at 6 months served as the primary outcome. After that, the data were statistically analyzed using SPSS software.
RESULTS:
The trial enrolled 41 patients (32 men and 9 women) who met the inclusion criteria. Among them, 25 patients received decompressive decompressive craniectomy, and 16 patients received basal cisternostomy. Three days postoperative intracranial pressure levels were 10.07 ± 2.94 mmHg and 17.15 ± 14.65 mmHg (p = 0.013), respectively. The 6 months following discharge Glasgow outcome scale extended of patients was 4.73 ± 2.28 and 3.14 ± 2.15 (p = 0.027), respectively.
CONCLUSION
Our study reveals that basal cisternostomy in patients with surgically treated severe TBI has demonstrated significant efficacy in reducing intracranial pressure as well as patient prognosis follow-up and avoids removal of the bone flap. The efficacy of cisternostomy has to be studied in larger, multi-clinical center randomized trials.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between remnant cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (RC/HDL-C) and metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) in health check-up population.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study. A total of 5 299 subjects who received physical examination in the Health Management Center of Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from January to December in 2023 and met the admission criteria were selected as the research subjects. The subjects were examined by demography, anthropometry, laboratory tests and liver instantaneous elastography. The Chi-square test, t-test, one-way analysis of variance, Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis H test were used to compare the indexes between the subjects with and without MAFLD. The subjects were divided into 4 groups (Q1-Q4 groups) according to the RC/HDL-C ratio quartiles by quartile method, and the indexes in each group were compared. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn using MedCalc software and compared to assess the diagnostic efficacy of the RC/HDL-C ratio for MAFLD. Results:With the increase of RC/HDL-C ratio, the detection rate of MAFLD (12.56% vs 43.48%), male proportion (55.68% vs 85.60%), total cholesterol (TC) [(4.63±0.82) vs (5.10±1.06) mmol/L], triglyceride (TG) [0.90(0.71, 1.15) vs 2.58(1.96, 3.50) mmol/L], alanine aminotransferase (ALT) [17.00(13.00, 24.00) vs 26.00(19.00, 38.00) U/L], aspartate aminotransferase (AST) [20.00(17.00, 24.00) vs 23.00(19.00, 29.00) U/L], and controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) [(239.32±40.52) vs (274.60±44.98) dB/m] increased gradually, while high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) [1.40(1.20, 1.64) vs 0.93(0.84, 1.04) μmol/L] decreased gradually (all P<0.05). ROC curves showed that the AUC value of RC/HDL-C ratio was significantly higher in identifying MAFLD when compared with TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, non-HDL-C and RC (AUC=0.676, P<0.05). Conclusions:The RC/HDL-C ratio is positively correlated with the risk of morbidity of MAFLD in health check-up population.

Objective:To explore the relationship between long-term blood pressure variability and arteriosclerosis in women with a history of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP).Methods:This study was a retrospective cohort study. Data were obtained from the Kailuan Research Database. Women with a history of HDP who delivered between January 1990 and December 2020 and completed brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) measurement in the postpartum period were enrolled. Baseline data were obtained from the first post-delivery health examination, while the outcome measure was the baPWV recorded during the last follow-up visit, synchronized with blood pressure measurements. Based on long-term blood pressure variability, the enrolled study subjects were divided into the first, second, and third tertile groups in ascending order using the tertile method, and intergroup differences in clinical characteristics were compared. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to evaluate the impact of long-term blood pressure variability levels on arteriosclerosis risk in women with a history of HDP. Sensitivity analyses excluded individuals with multiple deliveries to validate the robustness of findings. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on delivery age (<40 vs. ≥40 years) and blood pressure measurement frequency (3 vs. >3 times) to explore the potential impact of different population characteristics on the study results.Results:A total of 421 study subjects were enrolled, aged (36.07±6.05) years, with a baPWV value of (1 376.80±238.18) cm/s. Long-term blood pressure variability was 4.66 (3.41, 6.50) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa). The first, second and third quartile group included 140, 141 and 140 individuals, respectively. In the total population, the incidence of arteriosclerosis was 40.4% (170/421). The incidence rates in the first, second, and third tertile groups were 34.3% (48/140), 39.0% (55/141), and 47.9% (67/140), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that increased long-term blood pressure variability was an independent risk factor for arteriosclerosis in women with a history of HDP ( OR=1.702, 95% CI 1.018-2.844, P=0.043). The results of sensitivity analyses were consistent with that of the primary analysis ( OR=1.758, 95% CI 1.044-2.959, P=0.034). Subgroup analyses further indicated that in the subgroups with delivery age <40 years ( OR=2.116, 95% CI 1.153-3.885, P=0.016) and blood pressure measurement frequency >3 times ( OR=1.894, 95% CI 1.069-3.355, P=0.029), the association between long-term blood pressure variability and arterial stiffness risk was more significant. Conclusions:For women with a history of HDP, elevated long-term blood pressure variability may increase the risk of arteriosclerosis, and this effect is more pronounced in younger women (delivery age <40 years) and those with high-frequency blood pressure measurements (>3 times). Enhanced monitoring and management of blood pressure variability in this population are crucial to improving long-term cardiovascular health outcomes.

Objective:To explore the application of the flipped classroom teaching method in pediatric internship, evaluate the feedback from both students and faculty, and provide evidence for optimizing clinical medical education strategies.Methods:Fourth-year students ( n=174) enrolled in 2019 in the eight-year clinical medicine program at Peking University Health Science Center and instructors ( n=42) participated in this study. Questionnaire survey and exit examination scores were used to assess the effectiveness of the flipped classroom method. A statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0. Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn's multiple comparisons were used to evaluate the differences in satisfaction across teaching components. Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test were applied to compare satisfaction between high-score (top 30%) and low-score (bottom 30%) student groups. Results:①Overall student satisfaction with the flipped classroom reached 91.33% ("very satisfied" + "satisfied"). High satisfaction was reported for pre-class self-learning videos (80.35%), recommended clinical guidelines (82.80%), and English literature (71.10%), while satisfaction with the flipped classroom lectures was comparatively low (52.60%), with significant differences compared to other components ( P<0.05). ②High-score students exhibited significantly lower satisfaction than low-score students across all components (overall evaluation, 84.61% vs. 98.08%, Fisher's exact test, P=0.031; pre-class videos, 53.85% vs. 76.92%, χ2=6.12, P=0.013; preparatory assignments, 61.54% vs. 80.77%, χ2=4.68, P=0.030; English literature, 53.85% vs. 75.00%, χ2=5.80, P=0.016; and flipped class lectures, 36.54% vs. 59.62%, χ2=5.55, P=0.019). ③Enhanced competency in ≥2 core areas was reported in 71.68% of students, including theoretical knowledge acquisition (49.71%), self-directed learning (35.84%), clinical thinking (31.21%), research capabilities (25.43%), and communication skills (22.54%). ④Faculty feedback indicated that 83.33% of instructors perceived the flipped classroom as equivalent or superior to traditional teaching, particularly in cultivating clinical thinking (90.48%), self-directed learning (85.71%), theoretical knowledge acquisition (76.19%), and communication skills (76.19%). ⑤Student participation willingness was primarily influenced by pre-class time investment (46.51% reported excessive effort in preparing discussion materials), while faculty engagement depended on implementation effectiveness (42.86%) and curriculum design (35.71%). Conclusions:The flipped classroom method demonstrated promising initial outcomes in pediatric internship, with high satisfaction among both students and faculty. However, further exploration and practice are required in optimizing teaching components, implementing differentiated instructional strategies, and managing time investment.

Objective To explore the impact of irregular shape of head CT hematomas on postoperative re-bleeding and prognosis of patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH)who undergo craniotomy for hematoma evacuation.Methods We retrospectively enrolled consecutive patients with ICH who underwent craniotomy for hematoma evacuation in the Department of Neurosurgery of the Second People's Hospital of Guiyang Affiliated to Guizhou Medical University from January 2019 to June 2024.Baseline and clinical data were collected form the patients,including age,gender,smoking history,drinking history,hypertension,diabetes,history of anticoagulant use,admission systolic and diastolic blood pressure,admission National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS)score,Glasgow coma scale(GCS)score,time from onset to the first head CT,neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR),and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR).Admission head CT scans were used to assess hematoma shape(regular or irregular),hematoma location(basal ganglia,lobar,multifocal),hematoma volume,perihematomal edema volume,the presence of midline shift,and intraventricular extension.Volume of the hematoma was assessed 2 days after surgery.Postoperative re-bleeding is defined as an increase in the volume of the hematoma by 12.5 ml compared to the previous postoperative CT scan within 2 weeks after surgery,or the reappearance of high-density areas in the focal area of the head CT scan during follow-up after complete hematoma clearance.Conduct patients follow-ups via telephone at 6 months postoperatively to assess their modified Rankin scale(mRS)scores.The sliding dichotomy method was applied to define prognosis based on the patients' baseline characteristics and disease severity.The prognostic score was calculated using formula:10 × admission GCS score-age-0.64 × admission hematoma volume.A prognostic score>27.672 was considered potentially favorable,while a score ≤ 27.672 was considered potentially unfavorable.For patients with a potentially favorable prognosis,an mRS score of 0-2 was defined as a good outcome,and a score of 3-6 as a poor outcome.For those with a potentially unfavorable prognosis,an mRS score of 0-3 was defined as a good outcome,and a score of 4-6 as a poor outcome.In the comparison of baseline and clinical data between patients with regular and irregular hematoma shapes,factors with P<0.05 were included in propensity score matching(PSM)to adjust for confounding variables.A 1∶1 matching was performed using the nearest neighbor method with a caliper value set to 0.25.Variables with statistically significant differences between groups after PSM matching were included in the multivariate Logistic regression analysis to identify influencing factors for postoperative re-bleeding and poor prognosis in ICH patients undergoing craniotomy hematoma evacuation.The predictive value of irregular hematoma shape for postoperative rebleeding and poor prognosis in ICH patients was analyzed using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis.Results(1)A total of 440 ICH patients were enrolled,including 342 males and 98 females,aged from 20 to 84 years with a mean age of(56±12)years.Statistically significant differences were observed in baseline and clinical data between patients with regular and irregular hematoma shapes before PSM,including age,admission GCS score,NIHSS score,NLR,proportion of patients with hematoma rupture into ventricles,preoperative hematoma volume,proportion of patients with midline shift,preoperative volume of hematoma surrounding edema,proportion of patients with hematoma located in multiple sites,and postoperative 2-day hematoma volume(all P<0.05).After propensity score matching of these factors,298 ICH patients were included in the statistical analysis,comprising 228 males and 70 females,with an age range of 20 to 84 years and a mean age of(57±12)years.Following PSM,no statistically significant differences were observed in the baseline and clinical characteristics between patients with irregular and regular hematoma shapes(all P>0.05).(2)After propensity score matching,28 patients experienced postoperative re-bleeding while 270 did not.Significant differences were observed between the two groups in the following factors:proportion of patients with a history of anticoagulant use,admission PLR,NLR,irregular hematoma shape,and hematoma volume at 2 days after operation(all P<0.05).No statistically significant differences were found in the remaining baseline and clinical characteristics(all P>0.05).Using postoperative re-bleeding as the dependent variable and incorporating factors with P<0.05 from the univariate analysis as independent variables,multivariate Logistic regression analysis identified irregular hematoma shape(OR,2.821,95%CI 1.142-6.968,P=0.025)and larger hematoma volume at 2 days post-operation(OR,1.062,95%CI 1.026-1.099,P<0.01)as independent risk factors for re-bleeding following intracranial hematoma evacuation in ICH patients.ROC curve analysis demonstrated that irregular hematoma shape predicted postoperative re-bleeding with an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.62,showing a sensitivity of 71.4%and a specificity of 52.2%.(3)After propensity score matching,174 patients had poor prognosis while 124 had good prognosis.Significant intergroup differences were observed in age,admission GCS score,NIHSS score,irregular hematoma shape,proportion of patients with hematomas located in the basal ganglia and cerebral lobes,and hematoma volume at 2 days post-operation(all P<0.05).No statistically significant differences were found in the remaining baseline and clinical characteristics(all P>0.05).Using poor prognosis as the dependent variable and incorporating factors with P<0.05 from univariate analysis as independent variables,multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that advanced age(OR,1.039,95%CI 1.015-1.064,P=0.002),high admission NIHSS score(OR,1.068,95%CI 1.025-1.113,P=0.002),irregular hematoma shape(OR,2.675,95%CI 1.582-4.524,P<0.01),and larger hematoma volume at 2 days post-operation(OR,1.033,95%CI 1.002-1.064,P=0.038)were independent risk factors for poor prognosis.Conversely,lobar hematoma location(OR,0.192,95%CI 0.073-0.504,P<0.01)was identified as a protective factor.ROC curve analysis showed that irregular hematoma shape predicted poor prognosis after intracranial hematoma evacuation with an AUC of 0.61,demonstrating a sensitivity of 59.2%and specificity of 62.9%.Conclusion Irregular hematoma shape on head CT is an independent risk factor for both postoperative re-bleeding and poor prognosis in ICH patients undergoing craniotomy for hematoma evacuation.

To construct a subgenomic replication subsystem of foot-and-mouth disease virus(FM-DV)carrying fluorescent protein(UnaG),the full-length cDNA plasmid of FMDV was employed as the template.A few of structural and non-structural protein genes of FMDV were removed by double-enzyme digestion.By substituting reporter gene sequences expressing the green fluorescent protein UnaG for specific structural protein sequences of FMDV,FMDV-UnaG replicators were successfully created.After PCR and sequencing,linearized FMDV-UnaG replicons were transfected into BSR/T7 cells expressing T7 RNA polymerase,and the fluorescence signal was observed through fluorescence microscopy and laser confocal technique.The results demonstrated that the constructed FMDV-UnaG replicons could effectively express UnaG protein,and the protein colo-calized with FMDV 3A protein.Additionally,Western blot and RT-qPCR also detected that the replicator RNA could express the non-structural proteins of the virus and replicate autonomously in BSR/T7 cells,respectively.In conclusion,the successful construction of FMDV-UnaG sub-genomic replicators offers a favorable tool for further research on the replication and translation mechanism of FMDV and the development of vaccine vectors.

Conclusions:The flipped classroom method demonstrated promising initial outcomes in pediatric internship, with high satisfaction among both students and faculty. However, further exploration and practice are required in optimizing teaching components, implementing differentiated instructional strategies, and managing time investment.
