With the rapid advancement of hemodynamic indices and monitoring technologies, their classification methods and application processes have become increasingly complex. Currently, no unified standard hasbeen established, making it difficult to fully meet the clinical requirements for hemodynamic management. To assist in hemodynamic monitoring assessment and therapeutic decision-making in critically ill patients, the Critical Hemodynamic Therapy Collaborative Group, in conjunction with the Critical Ultrasound Study Group, has jointly developed the Standard for the Application of Hemodynamic Monitoring Techniques in Critical Care. The first part of this standard systematically categorizes hemodynamic indicators into flow indicators, pressure and its derivative indicators, and tissue perfusion indicators, while elaborating on the clinical application of each. The second part establishes a standardized clinical implementation pathway for hemodynamic monitoring. It proposes a tiered monitoring strategy-comprising basic, advanced, indication-specific, and special scenario monitoring-tailored to different clinical settings. It emphasizes the central role of critical care ultrasound across all levels of monitoring and establishes hemodynamic assessment standards for organs such as the brain, kidneys, and gastrointestinal tract. This standard aims to provide a unified framework for clinical practice, teaching, training, and research in critical care medicine, thereby promoting standardized development within the discipline.

Metabolic associated fatty liver disease （MAFLD） is a common chronic liver disease worldwide， and timely and precise intervention can delay disease progression and significantly reduce the risk of serious complications such as liver fibrosis， liver cirrhosis， and liver cancer. Although traditional liver biopsy combined with metabolic markers is the gold standard， it may cause complications such as pain and bleeding as an invasive examination， which has promoted scientific research to shift its focus to the construction of noninvasive assessment systems. In recent years， noninvasive diagnostic technologies based on multi-dimensional detection strategies have been continuously updated， including serological models， imaging techniques， and clinical algorithms. This article systematically reviews the screening methods for MAFLD during the fibrotic stages F1—F3， especially deep learning models based on artificial intelligence， in order to provide ideas for the early screening of MAFLD， as well as a scientific reference for optimizing disease management strategies.

Objective To analyze the correlation of cholecystectomy and changes in intestinal microbiota composition and function by observing functional characteristics of differential microbial communities.Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted on the patients(PC group,n=73)undergoing cholecystectomy in our hospital from 2020 to 2021.Another 56 healthy age-and gender-matched individuals(HC group)without a history of cholecystectomy were subjected and served as the control group.Fecal specimens were collected from the 2 groups.16S rRNA sequencing analysis was performed to examine the changes in composition and function of intestinal microbiota.Results There were no statistical differences between the 2 groups in baseline indicators,such as gender,age,BMI,smoking and drinking history,blood pressure,heart rate,and comorbidities,but significant difference was observed in total bilirubin(TBIL)between them(P<0.01).Alpha diversity analysis showed no significant difference in Chao1,Shannon,and Simpson indices between the 2 groups.Beta diversity analysis using the Bray-Curtis distance algorithm revealed a significant difference between the 2 groups at the class and genus levels(P<0.05).The analysis of microbiota relative abundance using LEFSE showed that Enterobacteriaceae,Lactobacillales,Citrobacter,Megasphaera,Lactobacillus,Enterococcus,Akkermansia,Streptococcus,Klebsiella,and Ruminococcus_gnavus were up-regulated in the PC group,and Lachnospiraceae,Sutterellaceae,Lachnospirales,Lachnospira,and Sutterella were down-regulated.Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)functional prediction analysis indicated that significant differences were seen between the 2 groups in metabolic pathways,including ascorbic acid(vitamin C)metabolism and aldonic acid metabolism(P<0.05),tricarboxylic acid cycle(TCA cycle)(P<0.05),glutathione metabolism(P<0.05),glutamic acid metabolism(P<0.05),secondary bile acid metabolism(P<0.05),and pentose phosphate pathway(P<0.01).Conclusion Cholecystectomy is closely associated with the structural alterations in the composition of intestinal microbiota.Variations in microbiota composition and function may induce perturbations in TCA cycle and glutathione metabolism,glutamate metabolism,secondary bile acid metabolism,and pentose phosphate pathways.

The telomere structure in the cell nucleus is crucial for maintaining the stability and functions of chromosomes.Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein reverse transcriptase,which catalyzes the elongation of telomeres using its own RNA as a template,thereby counteracting the shortening of telomeres caused by chromosome replication and cell division.Due to its overexpression in over 85％of malignant tumor cells,telomerase has emerged as a highly promising biomarker and a novel target for cancer therapy.In recent years,given the importance of precise quantification of telomerase activity in guiding medical diagnosis and treatment strategies,researchers have developed various high-performance telomerase detection techniques.Among these,electrochemical biosensing technique has cause much attention due to its high sensitivity,operational convenience,rapid response,and ease of miniaturization.This paper focused on the latest advances in electrochemical sensing technique for detection of telomerase activity,aiming to provide inspiration for designing novel telomerase activity detection strategies by elucidating three unique properties of telomerase primer extension products.

Objective:To observe the diuretic effects of Zhuling Decoction on mice with adriamycin nephropathy (ADRN); To explore its mechanism.Methods:Totally 32 SPF male C57BL/6 mice were divided into a blank group of 7 mice and a model group of 25 mice using a random number table method. ADRN model was prepared by single tail vein injection of 0.01 g/kg of amphotericin. Two weeks later, the successfully modeled mice were divided into a model group (7 mice), a furosemide group (8 mice), and a Zhuling Decoction group (8 mice). The blank group and model group mice were given equal volumes of injection water by gavage. The furosemide group was given 2.6 mg/kg of furosemide by gavage, and the Zhuling Decoction group was given 6.5 g/kg of Zhuling Decoction by gavage, once a day, for 8 consecutive weeks. Changes in body weight and urine output of mice were observed. A biochemical analyzer was used to detect 24-hour urinary protein quantification and blood potassium and SCr levels in mice. HE staining was used to observe pathological changes in mouse kidneys, and immunohistochemistry and Western blot were used to detect the homology of cyclin dependent kinase 18 (CDK18), STIP1, and the expressions of U-box protein 1 (STUB1) and aquaporin 2 (AQP2) in mouse kidney tissue cells.Results:Compared with the model group, both the furosemide and Zhuling Decoction groups exhibited increased 24-hour urine output ( P<0.05); compared with the model group and furosemide group, Zhuling Decoction group showed reduced average optical density values and protein expressions of CDK18 and AQP2 ( P<0.05) and increased STUB1 average optical density value and protein expression ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Zhuling Decoction can increase 24-hour urine output in ADRN mice, and the mechanism may be related to down-regulation of CDK18 and AQP2 protein expressions and up-regulation of STUB1 protein expression, thereby modulating the CDK18/STUB1/AQP2 pathway and reducing water reabsorption.

Objective : To investigate the relationship between lower limb alignment and knee functional gait after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for varus knee deformity. Methods: A total of 94 patients with knee osteoarthritis and varus deformity underwent mechanically aligned TKA. The knee society score ( KSS) , hip⁃knee⁃ankle angle (HKA) , medial proximal tibial angle ( mMPTA) , and gait parameters ( step length , gait speed , cadence , thigh jerk acceleration , and thigh swing work) were assessed preoperatively and one month postoperatively. The correlation between KSS scores and changes in lower limb alignment was also analyzed. Results: The KSS clinical score of the operated knee significantly improved from 39. 19 ± 9. 55 preoperatively to 73. 01 ± 6. 90 postoperatively (P <0. 001) . The KSS functional score increased from 41. 12 ± 10. 66 to 56. 33 ± 7. 41(P < 0. 001) . Postoperative gait analysis revealed significant improvements in step length , gait speed , cadence , and thigh swing work ( P <0. 001) , while thigh jerk acceleration showed no significant change (P = 0. 525) . The HKA angle of the affected limb increased from 170. 61 ± 4. 39 preoperatively to 177. 30 ± 3. 49 postoperatively ( P < 0. 001) . Similarly , the mMPTA angle increased from 83. 95 ± 3. 32 to 89. 15 ± 1. 94 (P < 0. 001) . Correlation analysis indicated that The KSS clinical score was positively correlated with HKA ( P < 0. 001) and mMPTA ( P < 0. 05 ) of the lower limb force line. The KSS functional score was positively correlated with HKA (P < 0. 05) but not with mMPTA (P > 0. 05) . Conclusion In patients with severe knee osteoarthritis due to varus deformity , TKA significantly alleviates pain and improves both clinical and functional KSS scores within one month postoperatively. Restoring lower limb mechanical alignment is positively associated with joint functional recovery and enhances gait performance.
