ObjectiveThis paper aims to conduct a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial on the treatment of myelodysplastic syndrome （MDS） with deficiency of both the spleen and kidney and blockage of toxin and blood stasis with an arsenic-containing traditional Chinese medicine compound， by applying the mixed model for repeated measure （MMRM） and the method of stratified composite outcome with win ratio. The analysis includes the assessment of hematological efficacy and the composite outcome evaluation of adverse reactions， so as to more comprehensively assess the therapy of this regimen. MethodsThe MMRM and win ratio methods were used to evaluate the efficacy of a prospective，multi-center，double-blind，randomized controlled study. The blood routine （hemoglobin concentration，neutrophil count， and platelet count） and biochemical indexes （aspartate aminotransferase，alanine aminotransferase，serum creatinine，and serum ferritin） of the patients were detected at the time of enrollment and at the end of each course of treatment in the laboratory department of Xiyuan Hospital. The patients' syndromes at the time of enrollment and after treatment were recorded and scored according to the therapy standard of traditional Chinese medicine for diseases and syndromes. MMRM was used to analyze the blood routine indexes of the experimental group and the control group. This method has the advantages of high data reliability and dynamic efficacy under intervention and time. The win ratio method was used to evaluate the composite outcome of traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores and biochemical indexes according to the priority and to verify the clinical safety of arsenic-containing traditional Chinese medicine compound. ResultsThe results of MMRM analysis showed that the hemoglobin concentration of patients in the group with arsenic-containing traditional Chinese medicine compound increased significantly compared with that before treatment in the group，while that in the placebo group decreased significantly （P<0.01）. When compared with that after treatment in the placebo group，the hemoglobin concentration of patients in the group with arsenic-containing traditional Chinese medicine compound increased significantly，and the mean difference of least squares （LS） was statistically significant （P<0.01）. When compared with those before treatment in the group，there were no statistically significant differences in the neutrophil count and platelet count in both groups. After treatment，there were no statistically significant differences in the neutrophil count， platelet count， and the mean difference of LS between the two groups. The analysis results of win ratio showed that the group with arsenic-containing traditional Chinese medicine compound had a significant advantage in the comparison of composite outcomes，with a win ratio （95% CI） of 2.01 （1.24-3.27） （P<0.01），and that the possibility of "winning" in terms of safety was 2.01 times that of the placebo group. The safety advantage of the group with arsenic-containing traditional Chinese medicine compound mainly came from the traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores，renal function indexes， and iron reserve capacity indexes，and the number of winning times was less than that of losing times in the comparison of liver function outcomes. ConclusionThe MMRM analysis proves that the arsenic-containing traditional Chinese medicine compound can significantly improve the hemoglobin concentration of patients with myelodysplastic syndrome with refractory cytopenia and multilineage dysplasia （MDS-RCMD） of the type of deficiency of both the spleen and kidney and blockage of toxin and blood stasis. This conclusion is not interfered with by time trends and individual relationships and methodologically improves the credibility of the therapy of the arsenic-containing traditional Chinese medicine compound in treating MDS. Four outcomes are evaluated by the win ratio method，namely traditional Chinese medicine syndromes，liver function，renal function， and iron reserve capacity，proving that the arsenic-containing traditional Chinese medicine compound has the comprehensive advantages of improving the survival quality of the patients and reducing adverse reactions. The win ratio outcome provides clear comparative indexes for the evaluation of adverse reactions，making it easier for regulatory authorities，medical staff， and patients to understand the safety of the arsenic-containing traditional Chinese medicine compound in clinical application.

ObjectiveTo construct an actor-network for integrating physical activity into rehabilitation services based on the World Health Organization Rehabilitation in Health Service System framework and actor-network theory (ANT). MethodsContent analysis was employed using the six building blocks of health service systems as the theoretical framework. Actors related to rehabilitation services were extracted and categorized into a rehabilitation actor pool, while a physical activity actor pool was formed based on four major physical activity scenarios. Actors from both pools were integrated, deduplicated and classified to form a final list of integrated actors. Using ANT, the construction process of the actor network integrating physical activity into rehabilitation was analyzed through the four stages of translation: problematization, interessment, enrollment and mobilization. ResultsA dynamic integration network was constructed, comprising human actors (patients, rehabilitation professionals, researchers, sports coaches, government departments, medical institutions, community organizations and industry media, etc.) and non-human actors (assistive devices, sports infrastructure, smart equipment, information systems, online exercise guidance systems, laws and regulations, strategic documents, and exercise prescriptions, etc.). The study identified maximizing rehabilitation outcomes as the mandatory passage point and elaborated on the critical role of government departments as focal actors in coordinating various stakeholders. ConclusionThe integration of physical activity into rehabilitation services is a dynamic network constructed by diverse actors through a process of translation. ANT provides an operational theoretical framework for cross-departmental governance of rehabilitation policies in China, promotes the spatial expansion of the rehabilitation field, and drives its transformation toward a networked and ecological system. The government needs to play a leading role in facilitating role reconstruction and synergy among heterogeneous actors in both the sports and rehabilitation sectors through mechanism design, to create a bidirectional empowerment mechanism that fosters mutual progress and ensures the sustainable development of integrated services.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of the infarct growth rate(IGR)in patients with acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusion.Methods This is a retrospective analysis of consecutive patients having acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusion and being admitted to the Department of Neurointerventional Intervention,Central Hospital affiliated to Dalian University of Technology between September 2021 and July 2023.Patients were dichotomized into rapid and slow growth groups based on the median value of IGR,with 145 cases in each group.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression models were used to analyze the risk factors of preoperative IGR.Results Multivariable Logistic regression analysis,after univariate screening,showed that hypertension(OR=2.27,95%CI:1.39-3.71),atrial fibrillation(OR=1.95,95%CI:1.22-3.12),and intracranial internal carotid artery occlusion(OR=1.98,95%CI:1.19-3.28)were risk factors of preoperative IGR(P<0.05).Hypertension,atrial fibrillation,and internal carotid artery occlusion all exhibited relatively low predictive value for IGR(P<0.05).The area under the curve for predicting IGR by combining these three factors was 0.642(95%CI:0.579-0.704),indicating a slight improvement in predictive performance,yet it remained relatively low.Conclusion Hypertension,atrial fibrillation,and proximal occlusion are risk factors of IGR in patients having acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusion.

Admission to ICU, vancomycin trough concentration ≥15 mg/L, medication time ≥7 d, and concomitant use of ≥2 nephrotoxic drugs and etc.were risk factors of vancomycin-related AKI.

Gastric cancer is a high-incidence malignancy that poses a serious threat to public health in China, ranking among the top three cancers in both incidence and mortality. The majority of patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage, resulting in limited treatment options and poor prognosis. To address key challenges in gastric cancer diagnosis and treatment, a research team led by Professor Jiafu Ji at Peking University Cancer Hospital has focused on the project "Development and Dissemination of Precision Medicine Approaches in Gastric Cancer Management". Through a series of high-quality multicenter clinical studies, the team established a set of new international standards in perioperative treatment, individua-lized drug selection, intelligent noninvasive diagnostics, and novel immunotherapy strategies. These advances have significantly improved treatment efficacy and reduced surgical trauma, achieving key technological breakthroughs in diagnosis, therapy, and mechanistic understanding, and systematically enhancing outcomes for gastric cancer patients. The project ' s findings had a broad international impact, including hosting China ' s first International Gastric Cancer Congress. Through nationwide dissemination, they have promoted the development of precision diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer as a discipline, and led the formulation of the National Health Commission's guidelines for gastric cancer diagnosis and treatment. In recognition of its achievements, the project was awarded the First Prize of the 2024 Chinese Medical Science and Technology Award.

Objective:To explore the value of spectral CT parameters combined with dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging（DCE-MRI） parameters in the short-term efficacy of concurrent chemoradiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods: A total of 110 cases with nasopharyngeal carcinoma Ⅲ-Ⅳ staging who received synchronous radiotherapy and chemotherapy at our Hospital from October 2022 to October 2024 were regarded as the study subjects. Complying with the evaluation results after radiotherapy and chemotherapy, they were divided into a complete remission（CR） group of 53 cases and a non CR group of 57 cases. All patients underwent DCE-MRI and energy dispersive CT scans to obtain parameters, such as iodine concentration（IC）, volume transfer constant（Ktrans）, slope of spectral HU curve（λHU）, rate constant（Kep）, and normalized iodine concentration（NIC）. Logistic regression analysis was used to screen for influencing factors. ROC curve was used to analyze the evaluation value of various parameters. In addition, Z-test was used to compare area under the curve（AUC）. Results:The proportion of retropharyngeal lymph node metastasis and λHUvalue in the non CR group were higher than those in the CR group, while Ktrans, Kep, IC value, and NIC value were lower than those in the CR group（P<0.05）. Retropharyngeal lymph node metastasis, Ktrans, Kep, IC value, λHUvalue, and NIC value were all influencing factors（P<0.05）. The AUC of individual prediction of Ktrans, Kep, IC value, λHUvalue, and NIC value was 0.817, 0.800, 0.785, 0.783, and 0.835, respectively. The AUC of the combination of DCE-MRI parameters, the combination of spectral CT parameters, and the combination of the five parameters were 0.874, 0.900, and 0.980, respectively, the AUC of the combination of the five parameters was significantly higher than the AUC of each indicator alone, the AUC of the combination of DCE-MRI parameters, and the AUC of the combination of spectral CT parameters（P<0.05）. Conclusion:The DCE-MRI, and spectral CT parameters （Ktrans, Kep, IC value, λHUvalue, and NIC value）can be used to evaluate concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy short-term efficacy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. And the combination of various parameters can greatly improve the predictive value of efficacy, which has important clinical application value.

Depression is increasingly prevalent among adolescents and can profoundly impact their lives. However, the early detection of depression is often hindered by the time-consuming diagnostic process and the absence of objective biomarkers. In this study, we propose a novel approach for depression detection based on an affective brain-computer interface (aBCI) and the resting-state electroencephalogram (EEG). By fusing EEG features associated with both emotional and resting states, our method captures comprehensive depression-related information. The final depression detection model, derived through decision fusion with multiple independent models, further enhances detection efficacy. Our experiments involved 40 adolescents with depression and 40 matched controls. The proposed model achieved an accuracy of 86.54% on cross-validation and 88.20% on the independent test set, demonstrating the efficiency of multimodal fusion. In addition, further analysis revealed distinct brain activity patterns between the two groups across different modalities. These findings hold promise for new directions in depression detection and intervention.

Peri-implant keratinized mucosa (PIKM) augmentation refers to surgical procedures aimed at increasing the width of PIKM. Consensus reports emphasize the necessity of maintaining a minimum width of PIKM to ensure long-term peri-implant health. Currently, several surgical techniques have been validated for their effectiveness in increasing PIKM. However, the selection and application of PIKM augmentation methods may present challenges for dental practitioners due to heterogeneity in surgical techniques, variations in clinical scenarios, and anatomical differences. Therefore, clear guidelines and considerations for PIKM augmentation are needed. This expert consensus focuses on the commonly employed surgical techniques for PIKM augmentation and the factors influencing their selection at second-stage surgery. It aims to establish a standardized framework for assessing, planning, and executing PIKM augmentation procedures, with the goal of offering evidence-based guidance to enhance the predictability and success of PIKM augmentation.
