ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility， safety， and efficacy of surgery-assisted transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt （SA-TIPS） in the treatment of portal hypertension comorbid with complex portal vein thrombosis， including cavernous transformation of the portal vein （CTPV）. MethodsAn analysis was performed for the data of 36 patients with portal hypertension and complex portal vein thrombosis who underwent SA-TIPS in Beijing Shijitan Hospital， Capital Medical University， from November 2023 to January 2025， including general status， technical data of the surgical process （surgical success rate， puncture times， time of operation， the number of stents used， and the length of shunt）， perioperative complications， and surgical recovery. The change in portal pressure gradient （PPG） after shunt was compared， and the rate of reaching the standard for PPG reduction was calculated， as well as stent patency rate within 1 week after surgery. The paired samples t-test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups. ResultsAmong the 36 patients， 34 （94.4%） underwent SA-TIPS successfully. The incidence rate of perioperative complications was 16.7% （6/36）， including 3 cases of thoraco-abdominal hemorrhage， 2 cases of intraoperative arrhythmia， and 1 case of incision infection. There was a significant reduction in PPG after SA-TIPS （t=19.85， P<0.01）， and the patients achieving a ≥50% reduction in PPG accounted for 76.5% （26/34）. Imaging reexamination within 1 week showed a shunt patency rate of 100%. ConclusionSA-TIPS has a high technical success rate， a favorable safety profile， and good efficacy in the treatment of portal hypertension comorbid with complex portal vein thrombosis （including CTPV）， and therefore， it holds promise for clinical application.

BackgroundAddictive non-suicidal self-injury （NSSI） behaviors among adolescents have become increasingly prominent， although previous studies have identified multiple related risk factors and have examined the association between screen time and NSSI behaviors， the impact of screen time on NSSI behaviors addiction， as well as the mediating role of family dysfunction in this relationship， remain to be further clarified. ObjectiveTo investigate the mediating role of family dysfunction in the relationship between screen time and NSSI behaviors addiction among adolescent female patients with depression disorder， with the aim of providing references for reducing NSSI behaviors addiction. MethodsFrom September 2024 to November 2025， a total of 652 adolescent female patients with depression disorder were enrolled from both outpatient and inpatient departments of Xiamen Xian-yue Hospital， all of whom met the diagnostic criteria for depressive episode （F32） or recurrent depressive disorder （F33） according to the International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10）. Assessments included a self-developed demographic questionnaire， screen use questionnaire， Chinese Family Assessment Instrument （C-FAI）， and Ottawa Self-injury Inventory Chinese Revised version （OSIC）. Among participants with NSSI behaviors， Spearman correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation between screen time and scale scores. Model 4 of the Process 4.1 for SPSS 26.0 was then applied to test the mediating role， and Bootstrapping procedure involving 5 000 replicates was employed to confirm the statistical significance. ResultsAmong the 652 patients， 569 （87.27%） exhibited NSSI behaviors. Among them， 398 cases （69.95%） belonged to the addictive NSSI group， and 171 cases （30.05%） belonged to the non-addictive NSSI group. The OSIC addiction dimension score was positively correlated with screen time and C-FAI scores （r_s=0.114， 0.224， P<0.01）. Family dysfunction mediated the relationship between screen time and NSSI addiction， with an indirect effect value of 0.036 （95% CI： 0.016–0.062）， accounting for 35.88% of the total effect. ConclusionScreen time may affect the NSSI behaviors addiction in adolescent female patients with depression disorder through family dysfunction. ［Funded by Joint Funds for the Innovation of Science and Technology， Fujian Province （number， 2025Y9762）］

ObjectiveTo elucidate the critical role of rehabilitation medical records (including electronic records) in rehabilitation medicine's clinical practice and management, comprehensively analyzed the structure, core content and data standards of rehabilitation medical records, to develop a standardized medical record data architecture and core dataset suitable for rehabilitation medicine and to explore the application of rehabilitation data in performance evaluation and payment. MethodsBased on the regulatory documents Basic Specifications for Medical Record Writing and Basic Specifications for Electronic Medical Records (Trial) issued by National Health Commission of China, and referencing the World Health Organization (WHO) Family of International Classifications (WHO-FICs) classifications, International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10/ICD-11), International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), and International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI Beta-3), this study constructed the data architecture, core content and data standards for rehabilitation medical records. Furthermore, it explored the application of rehabilitation record summary sheets (home page) data in rehabilitation medical statistics and payment methods, including Diagnosis-related Groups (DRG), Diagnosis-Intervention Packet (DIP) and Case Mix Index. ResultsThis study proposed a systematic standard framework for rehabilitation medical records, covering key components such as patient demographics, rehabilitation diagnosis, functional assessment, rehabilitation treatment prescriptions, progress evaluations and discharge summaries. The research analyzed the systematic application methods and data standards of ICD-10/ICD-11, ICF and ICHI Beta-3 in the fields of medical record terminology, coding and assessment. Constructing a standardized data structure and data standards for rehabilitation medical records can significantly improve the quality of data reporting based on the medical record summary sheet, thereby enhancing the quality control of rehabilitation services, effectively supporting the optimization of rehabilitation medical insurance payment mechanisms, and contributing to the establishment of rehabilitation medical performance evaluation and payment based on DRG and DIP. ConclusionStructured rehabilitation records and data standardization are crucial tools for quality control in rehabilitation. Systematically applying the three reference classifications of the WHO-FICs, and aligning with national medical record and electronic health record specifications, facilitate the development of a standardized rehabilitation record architecture and core dataset. Standardizing rehabilitation care pathways based on the ICF methodology, and developing ICF- and ICD-11-based rehabilitation assessment tools, auxiliary diagnostic and therapeutic systems, and supporting terminology and coding systems, can effectively enhance the quality of rehabilitation records and enable interoperability and sharing of rehabilitation data with other medical data, ultimately improving the quality and safety of rehabilitation services.

BACKGROUND:In recent years,deep learning technologies have been increasingly applied in the field of oral medicine,enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of oral imaging analysis and promoting the rapid development of intelligent oral medicine. OBJECTIVE:To elaborate the current research status,advantages,and limitations of deep learning based on oral imaging in the diagnosis and treatment decision-making of oral diseases,as well as future prospects,exploring new directions for the transformation of oral medicine under the backdrop of deep learning technology. METHODS:PubMed was searched for literature related to deep learning in oral medical imaging published from January 2017 to January 2024 with the search terms"deep learning,artificial intelligence,stomatology,oral medical imaging."According to the inclusion criteria,80 papers were finally included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Classic deep learning models include artificial neural networks,convolutional neural networks,recurrent neural networks,and generative adversarial networks.Scholars have used these models in competitive or cooperative forms to achieve more efficient interpretation of oral medical images.(2)In the field of oral medicine,the diagnosis of diseases and the formulation of treatment plans largely depend on the interpretation of medical imaging data.Deep learning technology,with its strong image processing capabilities,aids in the diagnosis of diseases such as dental caries,periapical periodontitis,vertical root fractures,periodontal disease,and jaw cysts,as well as preoperative assessments for procedures such as third molar extraction and cervical lymph node dissection,helping clinicians improve the accuracy and efficiency of decision-making.(3)Although deep learning is promising as an important auxiliary tool for the diagnosis and treatment of oral diseases,it still has certain limitations in model technology,safety ethics,and legal regulation.Future research should focus on demonstrating the scalability,robustness,and clinical practicality of deep learning,and finding the best way to integrate automated deep learning decision support systems into routine clinical workflows.

The biological nitrogen removal technology utilizing heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification (HN-AD) bacteria has shown effectiveness in wastewater treatment. However, the nitrogen removal efficiency of HN-AD bacteria significantly decreases as the salinity increases. To tackle the challenge of treating high-salt and high-nitrogen wastewater, we isolated a moderately halophilic HN-AD strain 5505 from a salt lake in Xinjiang. The strain was identified based on morphological, physiological, and biochemical characteristics and the 16S rRNA gene sequence. Single-factor experiments were carried out with NH₄⁺-N, NO₃^--N, and NO₂^--N as sole or mixed nitrogen sources to study the nitrifying effect, denitrifying effect, and nitrogen metabolism pathway of the strain. The strain was identified as Halomonas sp.. It can grow in the presence of 1%-25% (W/V) NaCl and exhibited efficient nitrogen removal ability in the presence of 3%-8% NaCl. At the optimal NaCl concentration (8%), the strain showed the NH₄⁺-N, NO₃^--N and NO₂^--N removal rates of 100.0%, 94.11% and 74.43%, respectively. Strain 5505 removed inorganic nitrogen mainly by assimilation, which accounted for over 62.68% of total nitrogen removal. In the presence of mixed nitrogen sources, strain 5505 showed a preference for utilizing ammonia, with a potential HN-AD pathway of NH₄⁺→NH₂OH→NO₂^-→NO₃^-→NO₂^-→NO/N₂O/N₂. The findings provide efficient salt-tolerant bacterial resources, enhance our understanding of biological nitrogen removal, and contribute to the nitrogen removal efficiency improvement in the treatment of high-salt and high-nitrogen wastewater.

Objective:To preliminarily explore whether sirtuin1 (SIRT1) activation can inhibit neuronal ferroptosis in rats after traumatic brain injury (TBI) by regulating hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α)-mediated glycolysis.Methods:(1) Six SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group and TBI group, with 3 rats in each group; TBI model in the TBI group was established by hydraulic impact method, and rats in the sham-operated group underwent same surgery without impact. Cortical tissues of the two groups were sent for tandem mass tag (TMT) labeled quantitative proteomics detection to analyze the differential expression proteome; Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) were used to detect pathway enrichment of the screened differential proteins. (2) Twelve SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group and 1-day, 3-day and 7-day post-TBI groups, with 3 rats in each group. Treatment methods were the same as above; Western blotting was used to detect SIRT1 protein expression. (3) Forty-eight rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group, TBI group, TBI+vehicle group and TBI+SIRT1 agonist group, with 12 rats in each group; rats in the sham-operated group and TBI group accepted treatment as above; rats in the TBI+SIRT1 agonist group were intraperitoneally injected with SRT1720 (dissolved in ≤ 5% dimethyl sulfoxide, at a dose of 20 mg/kg) within 30 minutes after modeling, twice a day (with an interval of 12 hours); and rats in the TBI+vehicle group were injected with same dose of dimethyl sulfoxide at the same time. One d after modeling, neurological deficit was assessed using modified Neurological severity score (mNSS), brain water content was measured by dry-wet weight method, histopathological changes in the cortical lesions were observed by HE staining, mitochondrial ultrastructure was examined by transmission electron microscopy, malondialdehyde (MDA) content and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in the brain tissues were detected by colorimetry, and protein expressions of SIRT1, HIF-1α (key protein in the glycolytic pathway), glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4, key protein in the ferroptosis pathway), and acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4, key protein in the ferroptosis pathway) were evaluated by Western blotting.Results:(1) KEGG analysis revealed that the glycolysis pathway and HIF-1 signaling pathway were obviously enriched in the cortical tissues of rats in the TBI group compared with the sham-operated group; GSEA showed that the HIF-1 signaling pathway (mmu04066) and ferroptosis pathway (mmu04216) gene sets in the cortical tissues of rats in the TBI group exhibited enrichment trends compared with those in the sham-operated group. (2) Compared with the sham-operated group, the 1-day, 3-day, and 7-day post-TBI groups had significantly decreased SIRT1 protein expression ( P<0.05), with the most prominent decline in 1-day post-TBI group. (3) Compared with the TBI+vehicle group, rats in the TBI+SIRT1 agonist group showed significantly reduced mNSS score and brain tissue water content (9.83±1.17 vs. 7.66±1.21; [83.62±0.91]% vs. [80.09±0.68]%, P<0.05). HE staining indicated clearer structure of the cortical area at the injury sites, and improved neuron morphology in the TBI+SIRT1 agonist group compared with those in the TBI+vehicle group; and transmission electron microscopy showed reduced mitochondrial shrinkage and partial restoration of cristae structures in the TBI+SIRT1 agonist group compared with those in the TBI+vehicle group. Compared with the TBI+vehicle group, the TBI+SIRT1 agonist group exhibited significantly decreased MDA content ([62.72±9.20] nmol/g vs. [39.34±3.48] nmol/g), increased SOD activity ([1.95±0.23] U/mg vs. [2.48±0.14] U/mg), elevated GPX4 protein expression (0.37±0.04 vs. 0.46±0.03), and decreased HIF-1α and ACSL4 protein expressions (1.16±0.15 vs. 0.81±0.12; 1.14±0.06 vs. 1.29±0.04), with significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusion:SIRT1 activation can exert neuroprotective effect by inhibiting HIF-1α-mediated glycolysis and reducing neuronal ferroptosis after TBI.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of children with anti-3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (anti-HMGCR) antibody-mediated necrotizing myopathy, and to explore early identification and management strategies to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data and treatment outcomes of 10 pediatric patients with anti-HMGCR antibody-mediated necrotizing myopathy admitted to the Department of Rheumatology, Children′s Hospital of Fudan University from December 2020 to December 2024. Statistical description was performed using SPSS 22.0.Results:Among the 10 patients, the male-to-female ratio was 1:4, the age of onset was (7.2±4.0) years, and the disease duration at diagnosis was (22.2±19.6) months. None had a history of statin exposure. Six patients presented with muscle weakness, and4 were diagnosed due to asymptomatic elevation of creatine kinase (CK); 4 had dermatomyositis-like rashes. All patients showed significantly elevated CK levels [median 3 291(1 969, 8 776)U/L] and underwent muscle biopsy. Histopathological findings revealed myofiber degeneration, necrosis, and regeneration in all cases, with inflammatory infiltration in 9 cases, MHC-Ⅰ positivity in all, and C5b-9 positivity in 9 cases. The median follow-up duration was (15.7±6.3) months. At the last follow-up, muscle strength was normal or nearly normal, and the CK median value had decreased to 977.5 (211.0, 3 536.0) U/L.Conclusion:For patients with suspected idiopathic inflammatory myopathy and significantly elevated CK, muscle-specific antibody testing-including anti-HMGCR-and muscle biopsy should be performed promptly regardless of the presence of skin rash, to ensure accurate diagnosis and guide treatment, thereby avoiding misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of posterior midline incision combined with anteromedial approach in the treatment of complex olecranon fracture-dislocation.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 26 patients (15 males and 11 females) with olecranon fracture-dislocation who were admitted from January 2020 to January 2024, including 5 cases of anterior transolecranon fracture-dislocation (2 cases of upper ulnar-radial joint dislocation), 21 cases of posterior transolecranon fracture-dislocation (5 cases of them were accompanied by upper ulnar-radial joint dislocation). Among them, there were 13 cases of traffic accidents, 7 cases of falling from heights, and 6 cases of walking falls. The average age is 45.1±15.3 years old (21-84 years old).Results:The operation time was 151.2±41.9 minutes, average tourniquet time was 93.7±22.6 minutes, and the intraoperative blood loss was 76.2±20.2 ml. The average follow-up was 16(12, 23) months, and the VAS score decreased significantly and the MEPS score increased significantly over time. At the last follow-up, the VAS score was 2(1, 2), and the MEPS score was 86.5±10.3, with 16 cases excellent, 7 cases good, and 3 cases medium, with an excellent rate of 89%. The range of motion of flexion-extension and pronation-supination were 119.3°±13.5°and 138.6°±15.2° respectively. Complications included 16 cases of ectopic ossification, of which 4 patients with significant effects on elbow function underwent surgical release 3-6 months after surgery. 1 case of ulnar nerve injury symptoms improved after emergency ulnar nerve release, and 1 case of elbow subluxation due to inaccurate coronoid process reduction and fixation. There were no serious complications such as vascular injury, internal fixation failure, fracture nonunion, and incision infection.Conclusion:The posterior midline incision combined with anteromedial approach can effectively treat complex olecranon fracture-dislocation and meet the requirements of early postoperative elbow rehabilitation.

Objective To explore the feasibility and safety of non-anticoagulation veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(VV-ECMO)in patients with severe chest trauma.Methods A retrospective cohort study method was used.A total of 19 patients with severe chest trauma who received VV-ECMO with a delayed anticoagulation strategy at Zhengzhou Central Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to October 2021 were included in the delayed anticoagulation group,and 20 patients with severe chest trauma who received VV-ECMO with a non-anticoagulation strategy from November 2021 to October 2024 were included in the non-anticoagulation group.The overall clinical characteristics of the patients were statistically analyzed,including gender,age,injury severity score(ISS),acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ(APACHEⅡ),reason for VV-ECMO,use of vasoactive drugs,oxygenation index(PaO2/FiO2),and interval from injury to VV-ECMO.The primary outcomes were hemorrhagic and thrombotic complications.The secondary outcomes were blood transfusion during VV-ECMO,VV-ECMO time,mechanical ventilation time,intensive care unit(ICU)length of stay,and 28-day mortality.Results There was no significant difference in gender,age,ISS score,APACHEⅡscore,reason for VV-ECMO,use of vasoactive drugs,PaO2/FiO2,and interval from injury to VV-ECMO between the non-anticoagulation group and the delayed anticoagulation group.There was no significant difference in overall incidence of hemorrhagic and thrombotic between the two groups[incidence of hemorrhagic complications:15.0%(3/20)vs.31.6%(6/19),incidence of thrombotic:15.0%(3/20)vs.5.3%(1/19),both P>0.05].The infusion rate of 4 or more paked red blood cell(PRBC)within 24 hours during VV-ECMO in the non-anticoagulation group was significantly lower than that in the delayed anticoagulation group[5.0%(1/20)vs.31.6%(6/19),P<0.05].The amount of PRBC and platelet transfusion and the time on VV-ECMO in the non-anticoagulation group during VV-ECMO were significantly lower than those in the delayed anticoagulation group[PRBC(U):5.8±3.8 vs.8.1±3.1,platelets(U):1(0,1)vs.2(1,3),time on VV-ECMO(hours):71.55±24.37 vs.114.21±34.08,all P<0.05].There were no statistically significant differences in the amount of plasma and cryoprecipitate transfusion during VV-ECMO,mechanical ventilation time,ICU hospitalization time,and 28-day mortality between the two groups.Conclusion For patients with severe chest trauma receiving VV-ECMO withholding routine systemic anticoagulation did not result in thrombotic complications or higher mortality and required less PRBC and platelet transfusions.Non-anticoagulant VV-ECMO is safe and feasible for patients with severe chest trauma with high risk of bleeding.

Objective:To observe the effect of intravenous human immunoglobulin (pH4) (IVIg) on total immunoglobulin (Ig) levels in patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and to evaluate its clinical efficacy in ameliorating hypogammaglobulinemia following CD20 monoclonal antibody therapy.Methods:Clinical data of 98 patients with B-cell NHL who developed hypogammaglobulinemia after CD20 monoclonal antibody therapy and were hospitalized in the Department of Hematology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, from January 2018 to June 2022, were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into the IVIg group ( n=70) and the conventional treatment group ( n=28). To exclude the interference of plasma transfusion on total Ig levels, statistical analysis was performed on the IVIg group without plasma transfusion ( n=53) and the conventional treatment group ( n=25). The therapeutic efficacy of IVIg was analyzed by observing its effect on elevating total Ig levels and the duration of this effect. The infection control efficacy of IVIg was assessed by comparing other blood biochemical parameters. The safety of IVIg in clinical application was also evaluated. Results:In the IVIg group, the mean total Ig level within 1-3 days after IVIg treatment was (20.67±4.17) g/L, significantly higher than the pre-treatment level of (17.16±1.76) g/L ( P<0.001). In 22 patients from the IVIg group, total Ig levels at 1-7 days, 8-14 days, and 15-30 days post-treatment were all significantly different compared to pre-treatment levels (all P<0.001). In the conventional treatment group, the mean total Ig level within 1-3 days after hospitalization showed no significant difference compared to the level at admission [ (18.12±1.84) g/L vs (18.43±1.79) g/L, P>0.05]. The proportion of patients in the IVIg group whose total Ig level reached 20 g/L within 1-3 days post-IVIg treatment was significantly higher than that in the conventional treatment group within 1-3 days after admission (57.69% vs 0, P<0.001). In 12 patients from the IVIg group with baseline neutrophil levels below normal, neutrophil levels at 1-3 days, 4-7 days, and 8-14 days post-treatment were significantly increased compared to pre-treatment levels (all P<0.05). The proportion of patients with new-onset infections post-treatment was lower in the IVIg group (22.64%, 12/53) than in the conventional treatment group (36.00%, 9/25), although the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Among 70 patients in the IVIg group, 8 patients experienced grade 1-2 adverse reactions, including nausea and vomiting in 5 patients, rash in 2 patients, and muscle/joint pain in 1 patient. No grade 3 or higher adverse reactions were observed. Conclusion:IVIg increased Ig and neutrophil levels in patients with B-cell NHL after CD20 monoclonal antibody therapy and may play a role in controlling new-onset infections. IVIg is effective and safe for treating hypogammaglobulinemia secondary to CD20 monoclonal antibody therapy in patients with B-cell NHL.
