Objective:To analyze the perceptions, attitudes toward cognitive screening and associated factors in Chinese population.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study, a total of 1 246 Chinese residents who used smartphones and completed the cognitive screening survey in the Sojump application from February 22 to March 7, 2024 were consecutively selected as the study subjects. The questionnaire content included demographic data, physical examination information, perceptions of cognitive disorders, perceptions, attitudes and suggestions of cognitive screening. A total of 1 273 questionnaires were distributed, and 1 273 were retrieved, of which 1 246 were valid (97.9%). The logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate factors associated with the attitudes toward cognitive screening in the subjects.Results:Of the 1 246 respondents included in the study, 468 were male and 778 were female, with a mean age of (43.9±13.8) years. The respondents covered 26 provincial-level administrative regions in China, including 347 (27.8%) in the east, 429 (34.4%) in the middle and 470 (37.7%) in the west. While 943 respondents failed to comprehend the cognitive screening, 914 considered it necessary. Additionally, 447 respondents recommended initiating cognitive screening at age 50, 927 respondents recommended annual screening, and 924 respondents preferred scale assessment. Female ( OR=2.121, 95% CI: 1.599-2.815), middle-aged and elderly ( OR=1.681, 95% CI: 1.223-2.310), urban residents ( OR=1.426, 95% CI: 1.002-2.029), high per capita monthly household income ( OR=1.253, 95% CI: 1.063-1.477), had complete physical examination ( OR=1.404, 95% CI: 1.015-1.943), better understanding of cognitive disorders ( OR=2.202, 95% CI: 1.750-2.772), and better understanding of cognitive screening ( OR=3.313, 95% CI: 2.227-4.931) showed positive correlations with the attitude favoring cognitive screening (all P<0.05). Conclusion:The perception levels of cognitive screening among Chinese residents are relatively low, but their attitudes are positive. Socio-economic factors, behavioral experiences, and knowledge levels are associated with residents′ attitudes toward cognitive screening.

Recent studies have shown that the physiological homeostasis of oral mucosal cells is regulated by the circadian clock.Dis-ruption or dysfunction of the circadian clock is closely associated with the development of oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC).Research based on the circadian clock offers a novel perspective on the pathogenesis and therapeutic strategies for OSCC.However,there is current-ly limited research on this topic,and people generally have insufficient understanding and recognition of the circadian clock.Given the complexity and challenges of circadian clock which is the fourth dimension of medical research,we organize relevant experts based on summarizing the current research results of circadian clock in the pathogenesis and precision diagnosis and treatment of OSCC,combining the scientific principles of the circadian clock's role and their long-term research experience,then summarizes and recommends the con-sensus opinions for the research of circadian clock in the pathogenesis mechanism and precision diagnosis and treatment of human OSCC,with the hope of providing guidance for the basic research and clinical application of circadian clock or circadian rhythm in the pathogene-sis mechanism and precision diagnosis and treatment of oral and maxillofacial squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective:To explore the application and clinical significance of pathological diagnostic criteria for medically refractory epilepsy in children.Methods:Cross-sectional study.A retrospective analysis was conducted on 490 children(pathology involved) with medically refractory epilepsy treated continuously in the Pediatric Epilepsy Center of Peking University First Hospital from January 2019 to May 2022.The distribution of different pathological types was observed, and the differences in clinical characteristics among different pathological types were analyzed through Kruskal-Wallis or χ2 tests.The impact of clinical and pathological features on patient prognosis was evaluated through regression analysis. Results:Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) was the predominant lesion (49.59%, 243/490).The electroencephalograms ( χ2=6.720, P=0.035) and clinical seizure characteristics ( χ2=26.370, P<0.001) in FCDⅡ were more focal than those in FCD Ⅰ and Ⅲ.Moreover, the proportions of focal resection in surgery ( χ2=24.286, P<0.001) and central involvement ( χ2=22.849, P<0.001) in FCDⅡ were higher than those in FCD Ⅰ and Ⅲ.Univariate and multivariate regression analyses revealed that FCD Ⅱ had a better prognosis than other dysplastic patients among the 375 cases of dysplasia ( P=0.049).Next-generation sequencing was performed on 35 cases of cortical malformations with such morphological characteristics as increased numbers of neurons in the white matter and Olig2-positive glial cell hyperplasia, and SLC35A2 mutations were detected in 2 cases (5.71%). Conclusions:Pathology of refractory epilepsy is specialized and continuously evolving.Standardized specimen processing and the accumulation of morphological, immunohistochemical, and molecular genetic data provide the foundation for clarifying the neuropathological nature of epilepsy, improving integrated classification, and advancing prognosis prediction and targeted therapy.

Objective:To analyze the clinical and pathological data of 15 patients with light chain amyloidosis initially diagnosed with other kidney diseases, and identify possible misdiagnosis reasons.Methods:It was a retrospective observational study. The clinical and pathological data of 15 patients, whose initial kidney biopsies failed to diagnose light chain-amyloidosis but were confirmed by a subsequent kidney biopsy or pathology consultation at Peking University First Hospital from January 2010 to December 2022 were collected. The results of immunofluorescence, Congo red staining, and electron microscopy of two renal biopsies were analyzed.Results:The median age of 15 patients was 56 years old, with a male-to-female ratio of 7∶8. The main clinical manifestation was massive proteinuria with normal kidney function, and there were 10 cases presenting as nephrotic syndrome. The initial diagnosis based on the first kidney biopsy included minimal change disease (8 cases), IgA nephropathy (3 cases), membranous nephropathy (3 cases), and type Ⅲ collagen glomerulonephritis (1 case). M proteinemia was not evaluated in 13 patients during the first kidney biopsy. Light chain immunofluorescence staining was not performed in 12 cases. Congo red staining was not performed in 13 cases. All fifteen patients received glucocorticoids combined with immunosuppressive therapy after their initial diagnosis, and 5 patients developed severe infection. After 12.0 (7.5, 20.0) months of treatment, none of them achieved clinical remission. Thirteen had evidences for M protein before the second kidney biopsy. The renal tissues of all patients underwent immunofluorescence light chain examination, Congo red staining, and immunoelectron microscopy examination when necessary. The repeat kidney biopsies of 14 cases and pathology consultation of one case consistently indicated light chain-amyloidosis. The kidney tissues in 13 cases were confirmed to be light chain restricted, 11 cases by immunofluorescence, and 2 cases by immune electron microscopy. After diagnosis of light chain-amyloidosis, all patients received targeted plasma cell therapy except for 1 patient lost to follow-up, 6 patients achieved hematologic remission, 5 patients achieved renal remission, 1 patient entered end-stage renal disease, and 3 patients died.Conclusions:In middle and elderly-aged patients with nephrotic syndrome, if conventional immunosuppressive therapy yields unsatisfactory results, it is crucial to focus on identifying evidences of monoclonal immunoglobulinemia, if necessary, kidney biopsy should be actively repeated. Kidney biopsy pathology should include comprehensive examinations such as light chain immunofluorescence, Congo red staining, and electron microscopy to avoid misdiagnosis of light chain-amyloidosis.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
