Magnetic surgery,as an emerging discipline,utilizes the principle of “non-contact” magnetic force to drive the innovative development of surgical technology. Magnetic compression anastomosis (MCA),a significant branch of magnetic surgical technology,demonstrates notable advantages in reducing surgical trauma,shortening operation time,and lowering the risk of complications,particularly in the reconstruction of digestive tract and vascular anastomoses. Compared to traditional suturing and mechanical anastomoses,MCA avoids defects such as the “pinhole effect” and “foreign body reaction”,leveraging the advantages of magnetic force′s non-contact nature,gradient variation, uniformity,and directionality to significantly reduce the risks of anastomotic bleeding,stenosis,and fistula. However,the widespread adoption of MCA still faces challenges,including the biological safety of magnetic materials,optimization of magnet design,intelligent application,and large-scale clinical validation. To address these,it is necessary to further standardize clinical operation procedures,enhance safety assessments,promote interdisciplinary integration,and accelerate technological iteration and translation of research findings,with the aim of facilitating broader clinical application of MCA for the benefit of patients.

Objective:To explore the value of immature platelets and thromboelastography (TEG) in evaluating bleeding tendency in patients bitten by blood venomous snakes.Methods:In December 2023, a bleeding scoring system was used to grade the bleeding score and degree of bleeding in 147 patients with blood venomous snake bites. Immature platelets and TEG were also tested to analyze the correlation between the bleeding degree of patients and indicators such as TEG, immature platelet ratio (IPF), and absolute value of immature platelets (A-IPF). The measurement data were represented by Mean±SD, and ANOVA was used for comparison among groups. Statistical data were analyzed using χ2 test. Spearman correlation was used to analyze the correlation between bleeding degree and the platelet count (PLT), immature platelet and TEG. Pearson linear correlation was used to analyze the correlation of PLT, immature platelets and TEG. The indexes of immature platelets and TEG were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve. Results:The 147 patients were graded for bleeding severity based on their bleeding scores, and divided into mild (22 cases), moderate (119 cases), and severe groups (6 cases), and the clinical data such as age, gender and the time from bite to visit were compared among the three groups. The differences were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The coagulation reaction time (R), clot formation time (K), and immature platelet parameters (IPF, A-IPF) in TEG parameters increased with the degree of bleeding. PLT decreased with the degree of bleeding, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Blood venomous snake bite patients have a negative correlation between PLT and IPF ( r=-0.301, P=0.012), but no correlation with A-IPF ( r=0.072, P=0.461) ; PLT was positively correlated with coagulation Angle (αAngle) and maximum thrombus amplitude (MA) of TEG ( r=0.220、0.243, P=0.028、0.015), but negatively correlated with R value and K value ( r=-0.368、-0.362, P<0.001). IPF is positively correlated with R and K values ( r=303、271, P=0.0020、0.035) ; IPF is not correlated with MA value and Angle angle, while A-IPF is positively correlated with R value ( r=0.162, P<0.001). The degree of bleeding in patients is positively correlated with R value ( r=0.237, P<0.001), but not with K value, MA value, and Angle angle ( P>0.05) ; The degree of bleeding in patients is correlated with PLT ( r=-0.411, P<0.001). The ROC curve analysis results show that the R value, K value, and MA value are effective in evaluating the bleeding risk of blood venomous snake bites in patients, and the PLT combined with A-IPF has the best efficacy in evaluating the bleeding risk of blood venomous snake bites in patients. Conclusion:The combination of PLT and A-IPF, TEG's R value, K value, MA value indicators can accurately evaluate the bleeding risk of blood venomous snake bites, and can be widely used in clinical practice as an important prediction method for bleeding tendency in patients bitten by blood venomous snakes.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of serum human β-defensin 2(HBD2)and soluble growth stimulating gene 2(sST2)levels in pediatric refractory Mycoplasma pneumonia.Methods A total of 145 children diagnosed with Mycoplasma pneumonia were recruited,and divided into refractory pneumonia group(n=53)and common pneumonia group(n=92)based on whether they had refractory or common pneumonia.General data were compared between the two groups.Ser-um HBD2 and sST2 levels were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Multi-variate logistic regression analysis was used to identify influencing factors for the occurrence of refracto-ry Mycoplasma pneumonia.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was performed to evaluate the diagnostic value of serum HBD2 and sST2 levels in refractory Mycoplasma pneumonia.Results The proportion of lung consolidation and pleural effusion in refractory pneumonia group was significantly higher,and the fever time was significantly longer than that in common pneumonia group(P＜0.05).Serum HBD2 and sST2 levels in the refractory pneumonia group were signifi-cantly higher than those in the common pneumonia group(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regres-sion analysis indicated that lung consolidation,pleural effusion,high serum HBD2 level and high serum sST2 level were risk factors for pediatric refractory Mycoplasma pneumonia(P＜0.05).The area under the curve and Youden's index for diagnosing pediatric refractory Mycoplasma pneumonia were 0.817 and 0.557 for serum HBD2 level,and 0.841 and 0.607 for serum sST2 level,respec-tively.Combined diagnosis using both markers resulted in an area under the curve of 0.916 and a Youden's index of 0.721.Conclusion The combined detection of serum HBD2 and sST2 levels holds significant diagnostic value for pediatric refractory Mycoplasma pneumonia.

ObjectiveTo introduce a fixation technique with the modified levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system （LNG-IUS） and evaluate its efficacy in the treatment of adenomyosis patients with previous LNG-IUS expulsion. MethodsA retrospective analysis was done on 22 adenomyosis patients who underwent modified LNG-IUS fixation due to LNG-IUS expulsion at three hospitals from June 2022 to June 2023. The baseline clinical characteristics， operative and postoperative details were collected and analyzed. The Visual analogu scale （VAS） scores and pictorial blood loss assessment chart （PBAC） scores were measured and compared before， 3 and 6 months after the LNG-IUS fixation. ResultsThe mean operative time was （19.51±7.41） min and intraoperative bleeding was （6.71±5.30） mL. Of the patients， 13 were operated under local anaesthesia and the other 9 under intravenous anaesthesia. There were 4 operations performed by a resident doctor， 15 by an attending doctor and 3 by a senior doctor. No intraoperative or postoperative complication was found. The mean follow-up was 11.51 months and no patient had a recurrence of LNG-IUS expulsion during the follow-up period. The mean level of hemoglobin at 1 month after operation was significantly higher than that before （P<0.001）. VAS scores and PBAC scores at 3 and 6 months postoperatively were all improved significantly than those preoperatively （P<0.001）. ConclusionsEffectively preventing the recurrence of LNG-IUS expulsion， modified LNG-IUS fixation is a safe and efficient method for adenomyosis patients with previous LNG-IUS expulsion. Modified LNG-IUS fixation deserves the clinical application due to its easy operation and wide range of use on women.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of postoperative complications in Chinese patients with gastric or colorectal cancer, and to evaluate the risk factors for postoperative complications.Methods:This was a national, multicenter, prospective, registry-based, cohort study of data obtained from the database of the Prevalence of Abdominal Complications After Gastro- enterological Surgery (PACAGE) study sponsored by the China Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgical Union. The PACAGE database prospectively collected general demographic characteristics, protocols for perioperative treatment, and variables associated with postoperative complications in patients treated for gastric or colorectal cancer in 20 medical centers from December 2018 to December 2020. The patients were grouped according to the presence or absence of postoperative complications. Postoperative complications were categorized and graded in accordance with the expert consensus on postoperative complications in gastrointestinal oncology surgery and Clavien-Dindo grading criteria. The incidence of postoperative complications of different grades are presented as bar charts. Independent risk factors for occurrence of postoperative complications were identified by multifactorial unconditional logistic regression.Results:The study cohort comprised 3926 patients with gastric or colorectal cancer, 657 (16.7%) of whom had a total of 876 postoperative complications. Serious complications (Grade III and above) occurred in 4.0% of patients (156/3926). The rate of Grade V complications was 0.2% (7/3926). The cohort included 2271 patients with gastric cancer with a postoperative complication rate of 18.1% (412/2271) and serious complication rate of 4.7% (106/2271); and 1655 with colorectal cancer, with a postoperative complication rate of 14.8% (245/1655) and serious complication rate of 3.0% (50/1655). The incidences of anastomotic leakage in patients with gastric and colorectal cancer were 3.3% (74/2271) and 3.4% (56/1655), respectively. Abdominal infection was the most frequently occurring complication, accounting for 28.7% (164/572) and 39.5% (120/304) of postoperative complications in patients with gastric and colorectal cancer, respectively. The most frequently occurring grade of postoperative complication was Grade II, accounting for 65.4% (374/572) and 56.6% (172/304) of complications in patients with gastric and colorectal cancers, respectively. Multifactorial analysis identified (1) the following independent risk factors for postoperative complications in patients in the gastric cancer group: preoperative comorbidities (OR=2.54, 95%CI: 1.51-4.28, P<0.001), neoadjuvant therapy (OR=1.42, 95%CI:1.06-1.89, P=0.020), high American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) scores (ASA score 2 points:OR=1.60, 95% CI: 1.23-2.07, P<0.001, ASA score ≥3 points:OR=0.43, 95% CI: 0.25-0.73, P=0.002), operative time >180 minutes (OR=1.81, 95% CI: 1.42-2.31, P<0.001), intraoperative bleeding >50 mL (OR=1.29,95%CI: 1.01-1.63, P=0.038), and distal gastrectomy compared with total gastrectomy (OR=0.65,95%CI: 0.51-0.83, P<0.001); and (2) the following independent risk factors for postoperative complications in patients in the colorectal cancer group: female (OR=0.60, 95%CI: 0.44-0.80, P<0.001), preoperative comorbidities (OR=2.73, 95%CI: 1.25-5.99, P=0.030), neoadjuvant therapy (OR=1.83, 95%CI:1.23-2.72, P=0.008), laparoscopic surgery (OR=0.47, 95%CI: 0.30-0.72, P=0.022), and abdominoperineal resection compared with low anterior resection (OR=2.74, 95%CI: 1.71-4.41, P<0.001). Conclusion:Postoperative complications associated with various types of infection were the most frequent complications in patients with gastric or colorectal cancer. Although the risk factors for postoperative complications differed between patients with gastric cancer and those with colorectal cancer, the presence of preoperative comorbidities, administration of neoadjuvant therapy, and extent of surgical resection, were the commonest factors associated with postoperative complications in patients of both categories.
