Objective To investigate predictive factors of malignant risk for follicular thyroid neoplasms(FTN)with a maximum diameter≤4 cm,providing evidence for preoperative diagnosis and individualized treatment for FTN patients.Methods We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of FTN patients with a maximum tumor diameter≤4 cm treated at our hospital between January 2018 and December 2023.Based on postoperative pathological diagnosis,the patients were divided into follicular thyroid carcinoma(FTC)group and follicular thyroid adenoma(FTA)group.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to explore predictive factors of malignant risk of FTN.Results A total of 870 patients were included,comprising of 745 patients(85.6%)in the FTA group and125 patients(14.4%)in the FTC group.The univariate analysis showed thatage,gender,BMI,comorbidity of Hashimoto's thyroiditis,number and location of nodules,the maximum diameter of nodules,internal structure of nodules,and internal blood flow signals had no significant differences(P>0.05),while nodule echogenicity,margins,halo,taller-than-wide shape,and calcification had significant differences(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that irregular margins(OR=3.061,95%CI:1.653-5.667,P=0.000),uneven thickness of the halo(OR=5.868,95%CI:1.258-27.377,P=0.024),and peripheral rim calcification(OR=4.364,95%CI:1.329-14.333,P=0.015)were predictive factors of malignant risk for FTC.Conclusions Ultrasound features have certain value for evaluating benign or malignant nature of FTN.Careful assessment of nodule margins,halo,and calcification can facilitate early diagnosis and treatment of small FTN.

OBJECTIVE: To explore and quantify the association of hot night exposure during the sperm development period (0-90 lag days) with semen quality. METHODS: A total of 6,640 male sperm donors from 6 human sperm banks in China during 2014-2020 were recruited in this multicenter study. Two indices (i.e., hot night excess [HNE] and hot night duration [HND]) were used to estimate the heat intensity and duration during nighttime. Linear mixed models were used to examine the association between hot nights and semen quality parameters. RESULTS: The exposure-response relationship revealed that HNE and HND during 0-90 days before semen collection had a significantly inverse association with sperm motility. Specifically, a 1 °C increase in HNE was associated with decreased sperm progressive motility of 0.0090 (95% confidence interval [ CI]: -0.0147, -0.0033) and decreased total motility of 0.0094 (95% CI: -0.0160, -0.0029). HND was significantly associated with reduced sperm progressive motility and total motility of 0.0021 (95% CI: -0.0040, -0.0003) and 0.0023 (95% CI: -0.0043, -0.0002), respectively. Consistent results were observed at different temperature thresholds on hot nights. CONCLUSION Our findings highlight the need to mitigate nocturnal heat exposure during spermatogenesis to maintain optimal semen quality.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of optical navigation system（ONS）-guided sacral neuromodulation（SNM）electrode implantation for precise puncture.Methods:?This study was a randomized，controlled trial. Patients who underwent SNM electrode implantation at the Gongli Hospital，Pudong New Area，Shanghai，from February 2024 to March 2025 were included. Inclusion criteria：aged 18?80 years，meeting the indications recommended by the Chinese expert consensus on the clinical application of sacral neuromodulation or expanded applications，and having completed pelvic CT and MRI examinations to ensure image quality for navigation system use. Exclusion criteria：progressive neurological diseases，severe urinary tract infections，urinary tract obstruction，or other conditions that may affect surgical outcomes and safety. Patients were randomly divided into two groups using a random number table and a single-blind design was implemented. The two groups underwent different puncture guidance methods in the stage Ⅰ surgery，but other treatments and follow-up measures were consistent.The experimental group used ONS-guided puncture with preoperative pelvic CT and MRI scans for multimodal image fusion and 3D reconstruction and software-based puncture path planning for real-time intraoperative guidance. The control group used X-ray-guided cross-positioning，determining the S3 sacral foramen for puncture based on anatomical landmarks with a metal positioning ruler under fluoroscopy. The puncture path was planned using software to achieve real-time intraoperative guidance. Intraoperative indicators（number of punctures，puncture time，electrode contact points，minimum effective voltage，X-ray fluoroscopy time，radiation dose，total surgical time）and postoperative outcomes（complications，pain scores，stage Ⅱ permanent implantation rates）were compared between the two groups to assess the advantages and feasibility of ONS-guided sacral nerve electrode implantation.Results:?A total of 35 patients were included in each group. The experimental group had fewer intraoperative puncture attempts［2.0（2.0，3.0）vs. 5.0（4.0，7.0）］and shorter puncture procedure time［7.5（6.0，10.0）min vs. 14.0（12.0，18.0）min］，indicating more accurate and efficient ONS-guided puncture. There was no statistical difference in the number of electrode contact points between the two groups［3.0（3.0，4.0）vs. 3.0（3.5，3.8）， P = 0.374］，but the experimental group had a lower effective voltage［1.8（1.8，2.5）V vs. 2.5（1.8，3.0）V］and shorter stimulator adjustment time［10.0（8.0，12.0）min vs. 16.0（13.0，20.0）min］. The experimental group had shorter intraoperative X-ray fluoroscopy time［1.6（1.1，2.2）min vs. 4.6（3.8，6.0）min］，lower radiation dose［165.8（107.6，205.3）mGy vs. 427.4（325.1，636.5）mGy］，shorter total surgical time［52.0（49.0，57.8）min vs. 68.0（62.0，74.0）min］，less intraoperative blood loss［4.0（4.0，5.0）ml vs. 6.0（5.0，7.0）ml］，and a lower proportion of patients requiring supplemental local anesthesia［14.3%（5/35）vs. 40.0%（14/35）］. The postoperative wound infection rates were not statistically different between the two groups［0 vs. 2.9%（1/35）， P = 1.000］，but the experimental group had significantly lower pain scores on postoperative day 1［（1.9 ± 1.1）vs.（3.2 ± 1.4）］and a higher stage Ⅱ permanent implantation rate［85.7%（30/35）vs. 65.7%（23/35）］，with statistically significant differences（ P < 0.05）. Conclusions:?ONS-guided SNM electrode implantation reduces the number of puncture attempts，surgical time，and X-ray radiation，effectively lowers the effective voltage，and increases the stage Ⅱ permanent implantation rate.

Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.

Acute lateral ankle sprain (ALAS) is one of the most common sport injuries, with high incidence, recurrence and disability rates. Currently, exercise rehabilitation-based non-surgical treatment is the primary management approach for ALAS. However, there remain improper practices such as excessive immobilization or uncontrolled activity, which contribute to recurrent sprains and chronic ankle instability, significantly impairing patients′ athletic function and quality of life. To standardize the non-surgical management of ALAS, improve the cure rates, and reduce the recurrence and disability rates, Chinese Sports Rehabilitation Medicine Training Project of Chinese Medical Association, Foot and Ankle Basics and Orthopedics Group, Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Sports Medicine Branch of Jiangsu Medical Association organized relevant experts to formulate Expert consensus on non-surgical treatment for acute lateral ankle sprain ( version 2025), following the principles of scientific vigor, practicality, and innovation. Thirteen recommendations were proposed for standardized treatment protocols across different healing phases, aiming to provide references for standard management of ALAS and improve the therapeutic outcomes.
