Objective:Currently, there is a lack of targeted training programs for resident physicians in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in China. This study aims to establish a stratified training indicator system for resident physicians in CPR that is in line with the medical realities in China.Methods:Expert consultation questionnaires were designed through literature review, group discussions, and surveys. Two rounds of expert consultation were conducted using the modified Delphi method to develop the stratified training indicator system for resident physicians in CPR. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0 software and Kendall's coefficient of concordance was used to assess the consistency of expert opinions.Results:A total of 15 experts participated in two rounds of questionnaire consultation, with a positive coefficient of 100.00% and an authority coefficient of 0.91, indicating high expert engagement and authority, thus ensuring the credibility of the results. The coefficient of variation for expert ratings in the first round of questionnaire consultation ranged from 0 to 0.40, with a concordance coefficient of 0.22 ( P<0.001). In the second round of questionnaire consultation, the coefficient of variation for expert ratings ranged from 0 to 0.24, with a concordance coefficient of 0.25 ( P<0.001). The Kendall's coefficient of concordance for expert opinions showed statistically significant differences in both rounds of questionnaire consultation, indicating consensus among experts and reliable results. This system consisted of 6 primary indicators and 32 secondary indicators. Conclusions:Based on the modified Delphi method, this study established a stratified training indicator system for resident physicians in CPR. In the future, based on the research findings, CPR training programs adapted to the medical realities in China will be developed and promoted to validate their scientific and practical value.

Acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fracture (ASOTLF) can lead to chronic low back pain, kyphosis deformity, pulmonary dysfunction, loss of mobility, and even life-threatening complications. Vertebral augmentation is currently the mainstream treatment method for this condition. In 2019, the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma and the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association collaboratively led the development of Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation for acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures. Six years later, with advances in clinical diagnosis and treatment techniques as well as accumulating evidence in related fields, the 2019 guideline requires updating. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, the Spinal Health Professional Committee of China Human Health Science and Technology Promotion Association, and the Minimally Invasive Orthopedics Professional Committee of Shaanxi Medical Doctor Association have organized experts in the field to develop the Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation of acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025) , based on the latest evidence-based medical researches. This guideline incorporates 3 recommendations retained from the 2019 version with updated strength of evidence, along with 12 new recommendations. It provides recommendations from six aspects of diagnosis, pain management, treatment option selection, prevention of postoperative complications, anti-osteoporosis therapy, and postoperative rehabilitation, aiming to provide a reference for standard treatment of vertebral augmentation for ASOTLF in hospitals at all levels.

Objective To investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics of adrenal cortical carcinoma(ACC),compare differences between hypercortisolism and non-functional ACC,and assess the diagnostic value of indicators such as Ki-67 index.Methods The clinical data of 57 ACC patients admitted to the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2015 to March 2025 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the results of endocrine function assessment,47 of these patients were divided into hypercortisolism group(n=19)and non-functional group(n=28).The differences in clinical and pathological characteristics between the two groups were compared,and non-parametric tests and Spearman correlation analysis were used to explore the relationship between Ki-67 index and tumor stage as well as imaging features.Results Among the 57 patients,there were 20 males and 37 females,with a male-to-female ratio of 1:1.85.The age ranged from 16 to 76 years,and the age at diagnosis was(48.7±13.3)years.The tumor diameter was(10.53±4.14)cm.The tumors were located on the right side in 12 cases(21.1%),on the left side in 34 cases(59.6%),and bilaterally in 11 cases(19.3%).Among them,16 cases(28.1%)were complicated with glucose metabolism disorders,31 cases(54.3%)had hypertension,and 20 cases(35.1%)had hypokalemia.According to ENSAT staging,there were 0 cases in stage Ⅰ,15 cases(26.3%)in stage Ⅱ,24 cases(42.1%)in stage Ⅲ,and 18 cases(31.6%)in stage Ⅳ.Endocrine function assessment was completed in 47 of the 57 patients,including 28 cases(59.6%)of non-functional ACC and 19 cases(40.4%)of hypercortisolism(including 1 case of hypercortisolism combined with increased sex hormone secretion).Compared with non-functional group,hypercortisolism group had a significantly higher prevalence of hypertension(P=0.014),later ENSAT stage(P=0.010),and a higher proportion of hypervascularization(P=0.048).The median Ki-67 index was 20%(10%-40%),showing no significant correlation with either the maximum tumor diameter or SUVmax value,but it was related to ENSAT staging,with Ki-67 index in stageⅣ patients being significantly higher than that in stage Ⅱ(P=0.032).Immunohistochemistry results showed that the positive rate of Inhibin-α was 84.8%,and the positive rate of Melan-A was 40.9%.Conclusions ACC is a rare malignant endocrine tumor.ACC patients with hypercortisolism are more likely to be complicated with hypertension,have later staging,and more common hypervascular manifestations.Clinically,their endocrine function should be prioritized for assessment,and more active treatment strategies should be adopted.Diagnosis should be combined with imaging characteristics(such as hypervascularization)and immunohistochemical indicators(Ki-67,Inhibin-α,Melan-A).The significant increase in Ki-67 is in the advanced stage can serve as an important prognostic indicator to guide individualized treatment.

Objective To investigate the application value of peripheral blood soluble human leukocyte antigen-G(sHLA-G)combined with immune cytokines in the differential diagnosis of renal transplant rejection.Methods This case-control study retrospectively analyzed 81 renal transplant patients hospitalized in the Department of Organ Transplantation,the Second Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from April 2020 to December 2023,due to elevated serum creatinine.Among them,32 patients were diagnosed with acute rejection(acute rejection group),29 with chronic rejection(chronic rejection group),and 20 with elevated creatinine due to non-rejection causes(non-rejection group).Fifty renal transplant inpatients and outpatients with normal and stable serum creatinine were selected as control group during the same period.Clinical data such as gender,age,serum creatinine,estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR),and urine protein positive rate,etc.were collected.Peripheral blood of patients was sampled to measure the levels of plasma sHLA-G and immune cytokines[interferon-γ(IFN-γ),tumor necrosis factor-β(TNF-β),interleukin(IL)-2,IL-4,IL-10,IL-5,IL-6,IL-17]using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Stratify and compare the differences in sHLA-G levels among different groups and all renal transplant inpatients by gender.Results Compared with control group,serum creatinine levels and urine protein positive rate were significantly higher in acute rejection group,chronic rejection group,and non-rejection group,while eGFR was significantly lower,serum creatinine levels in chronic rejection group and non-rejection group were higher than those in acute rejection group,while eGFR was lower than that in acute rejection group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).No statistically significant differences were observed in gender,age,blood type,body mass index,transplantation duration,and immunosuppressive agent use among acute rejection,chronic rejection,non-rejection,and control groups(P>0.05).Plasma sHLA-G levels in acute rejection and chronic rejection groups were significantly lower than those in control group[(19.665±11.233)U/ml vs.(24.785±21.668)U/ml vs.(44.918±39.898)U/ml,P<0.05].The sHLA-G/IL-2 ratio in chronic rejection group was significantly higher than that in acute rejection group(5.844±6.248 vs.1.825±1.574,P<0.05),and the sHLA-G/IFN-γ ratio in non-rejection group was significantly higher than that in chronic rejection group(3.452±3.283 vs.1.543±2.030,P<0.05).Among 131 renal transplant inpatients,female sHLA-G levels were significantly higher than male(P<0.05).Within each group,female sHLA-G levels in chronic rejection group were significantly higher than male(P<0.05).Although female sHLA-G levels in acute rejection,non-rejection,and control groups were higher than those of male,the gender difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).Conclusions Peripheral blood sHLA-G levels are correlated with renal transplantation rejection.The application of sHLA-G/IL-2 and sHLA-G/IFN-γ ratios has potential value in the diagnosis and differentiation of elevated creatinine caused by acute/chronic rejection,chronic rejection and non-rejection causes,respectively.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the intervention effect and mechanism of Lycium barbarum leaves on letrozole-induced polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) mice. The PCOS model was prepared by letrozole combined with high-fat diet. After successful modeling, 40 mice were randomly divided into PCOS group, positive drug metformin group, low-dose Lycium barbarum leaves group, and high-dose Lycium barbarum leaves group. The corresponding drugs were given by gavage for 29 days. At the end of the experiment, the eyeballs were removed for blood collection and ovarian tissue was collected. The ovarian mass, fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting insulin (FINS), testosterone (T), anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), and estradiol (E₂) levels were measured in each group. The morphology of ovarian tissue was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining, and the oocytes, cystic follicles and corpus luteum were counted. Cecal contents of mice were collected for analysis of intestinal flora composition and differential flora. The animal experiment process was approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The results showed that the estrous cycle of PCOS mice was disordered. Compared with the PCOS group, the Lycium barbarum leaves group can significantly reduce the ovarian damage of mice, reduce the number of cystic dilated follicles, and normalize the estrous cycle. After the intervention of Lycium barbarum leaves, the levels of FBG, FINS, T, AMH, LH, FSH and LH/FSH were significantly decreased (P < 0.05), while the level of E₂ was significantly increased (P < 0.001). In addition, Lycium barbarum leaves can regulate the disorder of intestinal flora diversity in PCOS mice, increase the abundance of Bacteroidetes, and reduce the abundance of Firmicutes, Ileibacterium, Romboutsia and Faecalibaculum. In summary, Lycium barbarum leaves can play a therapeutic role in PCOS mice by improving insulin resistance, regulating reproductive hormone disorders and gut microbiota imbalance. It provides scientific basis and useful reference for the rational utilization and development of Lycium barbarum leaves.

Objective To investigate the attributable risk(AR)of Acinetobacter baumannii(AB)infection in criti-cally ill patients.Methods A multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted among adult patients in inten-sive care unit(ICU).Patients with AB isolated from sterile body fluid and confirmed with AB infection in each cen-ter were selected as the infected group.According to the matching criteria that patients should be from the same pe-riod,in the same ICU,as well as with similar APACHE Ⅱ score(±5 points)and primary diagnosis,patients who did not infect with AB were selected as the non-infected group in a 1:2 ratio.The AR was calculated.Results The in-hospital mortality of patients with AB infection in sterile body fluid was 33.3％,and that of non-infected group was 23.1％,with no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P=0.069).The AR was 10.2％(95％CI:-2.3％-22.8％).There is no statistically significant difference in mortality between non-infected pa-tients and infected patients from whose blood,cerebrospinal fluid and other specimen sources AB were isolated(P＞0.05).After infected with AB,critically ill patients with the major diagnosis of pulmonary infection had the high-est AR.There was no statistically significant difference in mortality between patients in the infected and non-infec-ted groups(P＞0.05),or between other diagnostic classifications.Conclusion The prognosis of AB infection in critically ill patients is highly overestimated,but active healthcare-associated infection control for AB in the ICU should still be carried out.

Objective Hypertriglyceridemic waist(HW),hypertriglyceridemic waist-to-height ratio(HWHtR),and waist-to-hip ratio(WHR)have been shown to be indicators of cardiometabolic risk factors.However,it is not clear which indicator is more suitable for children and adolescents.We aimed to investigate the relationship between HW,HWHtR,WHR,and cardiovascular risk factors clustering to determine the best screening tools for cardiometabolic risk in children and adolescents. Methods This was a national cross-sectional study.Anthropometric and biochemical variables were assessed in approximately 70,000 participants aged 6-18 years from seven provinces in China.Demographics,physical activity,dietary intake,and family history of chronic diseases were obtained through questionnaires.ANOVA,x2 and logistic regression analysis was conducted. Results A significant sex difference was observed for HWHtR and WHR,but not for HW phenotype.The risk of cardiometabolic health risk factor clustering with HW phenotype or the HWHtR phenotype was significantly higher than that with the non-HW or non-HWHtR phenotypes among children and adolescents(HW:OR = 12.22,95%CI:9.54-15.67;HWHtR:OR = 9.70,95%CI:6.93-13.58).Compared with the HW and HWHtR phenotypes,the association between risk of cardiometabolic health risk factors(CHRF)clustering and high WHR was much weaker and not significant(WHR:OR = 1.14,95%CI:0.97-1.34). Conclusion Compared with HWHtR and WHR,the HW phenotype is a more convenient indicator with higher applicability to screen children and adolescents for cardiovascular risk factors.
