Objective:To develop a journey map for health management of patients with disability caused by accidental trauma from the social ecosystem theory perspective, so as to gain deeper insights into their actual needs during medical treatment and rehabilitation.Methods:The descriptive qualitative research was adopted. Purposeful sampling was employed to select patients with disability caused by accidental trauma admitted to the Trauma Center of the Department of Emergency and Critical Care Medicine at the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University between April and May 2024 for semi-structured interviews. Traditional content analysis method was employed to analyze the interview data.Results:From three dimensions of microsystem, mesosystem, and macrosystem, the needs and potential issues of medical treatment at different stages of the health management process for patients with disability caused by accidental trauma were analyzed, forming a patient journey map.Conclusions:Patients with disability caused by accidental trauma face prolonged periods of medical treatment, rehabilitation, and lifestyle readjustment, imposing significant burdens on themselves, their caregivers, and their families. Healthcare providers may proactively engage with patients based on their current and potential issues and needs, offer specialized guidance at critical junctures and meet the need of patients for continuity of care, thereby improving patients' quality of life and overall health outcomes.

Objective To study the efficacy and safety of less invasive surfactant administration(LISA)combined with budesonide and supported by nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation(NIPPV)in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome(RDS).Methods Premature infants with RDS at the gestational age of 26-32 weeks in the neonatal ward of Xuzhou Central Hospital from Feb-ruary 2022 to March 2024 were divided into the observation group and the control group in this prospective randomized controlled trial.The control group suspended nasal continuous positive airway pressure(NCPAP),they were intubated and infused with PS into the lung through endotracheal tube and extubated(INSURE),then continued to receive NCPAP.In the observation group,a LISA tube was insert-ed through the vocal cords under direct vision with direct laryngoscope,then infused pulmonary surfactant(PS)and budesonide into the lung when NIPPV ventilation was applied.The results of blood gas analysis at 1h and 6h after intratracheal instillation of PS,medication administration,clinical efficacy,related complications of budesonide,bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)were compared between the two groups.Results A total of 126 preterm infants with RDS were enrolled in the study,including 65 in the observation group and 61 in the control group.The incidence of regurgitation in the observation group were lower than those in the control group[(10.8％(7/65)vs 24.6％(15/61)],and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The PaO2/FiO2(P/F)in the observation group at 1h and 6h were higher than those in the control group,while PaCO2were lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statis-tically significant(all P＜0.05).The duration of non-invasive respiratory support(11.4±4.6 days vs 15.9±5.6 days),total oxygen inhaling(14.9±6.9 days vs 21.2±8.5 days),failure rate of machine withdrawal[(10.8％(7/65)vs 24.6％(15/61)],the rate of tracheal intubation within 72h[9.2％(6/65)vs 23.0％(14/61)],and re-administration of PS[18.5％(12/65)vs 34.4％(21/61)],the times of apnea[9.0(3.0-25.0)times vs 17.0(5.0-29.0)times]in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The occurrence of BPD in the observational group were lower than those in the control group[15.4％(10/65)vs 34.4％(21/61)](P＜0.05).There were no significant differences between two groups in the related complications of budesonide(all P＞0.05).Conclusion LISA combined with budesonide and supported by NIPPV can effectively improve oxygenation,shorten the duration of non-invasive respiratory support,reduce the mechanical ventilation rate,and reduce the incidence of BPD in the treatment of premature infants with RDS at the gestational age of 26-32 weeks.

Objective:To compare minimally invasive surgery with traditional open surgery, analyze the current application status of health economic evaluations in the treatment of digestive tract cancers, such as esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, and colorectal cancer by minimally invasive surgery and provide evidence for the rational selection of clinical treatment, alleviation of disease-related economic burdens, and rational allocation of healthcare resources.Methods:By using five databases, i.e. China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang data, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, PubMed, and Embase, a database was established to retrieve all the papers about health economic studies of minimally invasive surgery for esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, and colorectal cancer published until December 31, 2023. Literature was analyzed by using software NoteExpress 3.8, and data were processed using Excel 2021. The quality of included papers was evaluated using the CHEERS 2022 checklist, and Meta-analysis was conducted by using software Stata 17.0.Results:A total of 10 919 relevant papers were retrieved, and 59 studies were included. Only 14 studies (23.7%) used standard health economic evaluation methods. Meta-analysis results revealed no significant differences in direct medical expenditure and total expenditure between minimally invasive surgery and open surgery. However, the expenditure for minimally invasive surgery exhibited a significant increase [mean difference ( MD)=5 973.12 yuan, P<0.001], while hospital stay and indirect expenditure significantly decreased ( MD: -4.85 days and -733.79 yuan, P<0.001). In China, for gastric cancer, the direct medical expenditure of endoscopic surgery was lower than that of open surgery ( MD=-33 000.00 yuan) with no significant difference ( P<0.001). In colorectal cancer cases, the direct medical and surgical expenditures for laparoscopic surgery were higher than those for open surgery ( MD: 4 277.94 yuan and 4 267.80 yuan, P<0.001), while the indirect and total medical expenditures decreased ( MD: -768.34 yuan and -159.10 yuan). Hospital stays in patients who had minimally invasive surgery for all three types of cancer were shorter than those who had open surgery ( P<0.001). Conclusions:In the treatment of gastrointestinal cancer, compared with open surgery, minimally invasive surgery shows higher expenditure, but has advantages, such as shorter hospital stay and lower indirect expenditure, and there were no significant differences in direct medical and total expenditures between the two approaches. When conducting health economic evaluation, factors such as postoperative complications, hospital stay, and patient's economic status should be considered for their impact on total medical expenditure. It is necessary to pay attention to the application of health economic evaluations in healthcare decision-making.

Objective:To explore the association between spicy food intake and the risk for cardio/cerebrovascular diseases.Methods:Data were collected from the China Kadoorie Biobank project conducted in Pengzhou, Sichuan Province. Using the Cox proportional hazards regression model, we analyzed the associations of the frequency of spicy food intake, spicy level, types of spicy food, and the age when regular intake of spicy food began (intake in 1 day/week), with the risk for cardio/cerebrovascular disease. Furthermore, the associations with the risks for ischemic heart disease (IHD) and cerebrovascular diseases, as well as the risk of ischemic stroke (IS) and hemorrhagic stroke (HS) were analyzed.Results:A total of 54 859 study participants were included in the study, in whom 49 320 had spicy food intake (89.90%). In these participants, 37 680 (68.69%) had spicy food intake in 6-7 days/week, 5 036 (9.18%) had spicy food intake in 1-5 days/week, and 6 604 (12.03%) had spicy food intake once a week; 5 539 (10.10%) had never/almost never had spicy food intake. After adjusting for multiple confounding factors, compared with those who never/almost never had spicy food intake, intake of spicy food was associated with reduced risks for IHD (intake in 6-7 days/week: HR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.78-0.95), cerebrovascular diseases (intake in 6-7 days/week: HR=0.88, 95% CI: 0.81-0.96), and IS (intak in 6-7 days/week: HR=0.85, 95% CI: 0.76-0.95). With the increase of spicy food intake frequency, the risk for cardio/cerebrovascular disease decreased (intake in 1-5 days/week: HR=0.91, 95% CI: 0.85-0.98; intake in 6-7 days/week: HR=0.89, 95% CI: 0.84-0.94) (trend test P<0.001). However, no statistical association was found between spicy food intake and the risk for HS. In terms of spicy level, after adjusting for multiple confounding factors, compared with those who never/almost never had spicy food intake, intake of spicy food was associated with reduced risk for cardio/cerebrovascular disease (moderate: HR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.82-0.90) and cerebrovascular disease (moderate: HR=0.90, 95% CI: 0.84-0.97). With the increase of spicy level, the risk for IHD decreased (moderate: HR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.79-0.93; strong: HR=0.84, 95% CI: 0.74-0.95) (trend test P<0.001). After adjusting for multiple confounding factors, compared with those who never/almost never had spicy food intake, intake of any type of spicy food was associated with reduced risk for cardio/cerebrovascular disease, IHD, and cerebrovascular disease. Regulat intake of spicy food from age 0-10 years was associated with reduced risk for cardio/cerebrovascular disease, IHD, and cerebrovascular disease. Regular intake of spicy food from age 11-20 years reduced the risk for cardio/cerebrovascular disease and IHD. There was no significant association between the regular intake of spicy food from age 21-79 years and the risks for cardio/cerebrovascular disease, IHD and cerebrovascular disease. Conclusion:The intake of spicy food could reduced the risk for cardio/cerebrovascular diseases, IHD, cerebrovascular diseases and IS in residents aged 30-79 years in Sichuan.

Objective To identify potential biomarkers for proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR)using proteomics and transcriptomics data.Methods In this study,the proteomics dataset(PXD046630)and two transcriptomics datasets(GSE60436 and GSE102485)were derived from the aqueous humor samples and fibrovascular membranes of PDR patients,respectively.Differentially expressed genes(DEGs)were identified via R software,specifically the limma and edgeR pack-ages.The shared DEGs between PXD046630 and GSE60436 were analyzed via protein-protein interaction(PPI),Gene On-tology(GO)enrichment,and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway enrichment analyses.The key DEGs were validated in GSE102485 via receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis.A quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR)assay was used to confirm the mRNA of these candidate biomarkers in human retinal microvascular endothelial cells(HRMECs)cultured in high glucose and low oxygen conditions.Results A total of 59 shared DEGs and 26 hub genes were identified from the PXD046630 and GSE60436 datasets.KEGG analysis revealed that six pathways,inclu-ding extracellular matrix-receptor interaction,proteoglycans in cancer,and complement and coagulation cascades,were enriched in 12 key DEGs.Fibronectin 1(FN1),tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 3(TIMP3),complement factor H(CFH),decorin(DCN),and lipoprotein receptor-related protein-2(LRP2)were identified as potential biomarkers on the basis of their AUC values being greater than 0.900(CI≥95％).The mRNA expression levels of FN1,CFH,and LRP2 were significantly increased in HRMECs cultured in high glucose and low oxygen conditions.Conclusion FN1,CFH,and LRP2 are potential biomarkers for PDR,and further studies are needed to explore their roles and therapeutic potential in PDR.

Objective:To develop and evaluate a medical visual question answering (VQA) model for neonatal lung ultrasound (LUS) images to enhance intelligent auxiliary diagnosis of neonatal pulmonary diseases.Methods:Using data from neonates admitted to Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Capital Medical University (January 2023 to December 2024), an image-question-answer dataset comprising 251 LUS images was constructed [43 pneumonia (17.1%), 42 neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (16.7%), 83 transient tachypnea (33.1%), and 83 normal (33.1%) images] with a four-tier medical question-answer framework. Building upon the Qwen2.5-VL-7B base model and integrating LoRA fine-tuning with chain-of-thought prompting, we developed the NLUS-VQA model to enhance visual-language semantic alignment and enable stepwise clinical reasoning, achieving efficient small-sample adaptation. Model performance was comprehensively assessed through natural language generation metrics (BLEU-4, ROUGE-1/2/L), qualitative evaluation of characteristic recognition, and clinical consistency analysis.Results:(1) Quantitative evaluation demonstrated that NLUS-VQA achieved scores of 22.38 (BLEU-4), 48.26 (ROUGE-1), 22.40 (ROUGE-2), and 37.20 (ROUGE-L), representing significant improvements over baseline models. (2) Qualitatively, the model exhibited strong performance in identifying lung consolidation, coalescent B-lines, and snowflake signs, with its chain-of-thought strategy enhancing clinical interpretability and answer accuracy. (3) Clinically, NLUS-VQA achieved a Cohen's Kappa coefficient of 0.78 and diagnostic accuracy of 80.8% (21/26), indicating substantial agreement with clinical experts.Conclusion:The NLUS-VQA model demonstrates robust interpretability in recognizing key sonographic patterns (e.g. lung consolidation, confluent B-lines, and snowflake signs), providing a scalable framework for small-sample medical image analysis, though diagnostic performance on complex conditions remains limited by dataset scale and minority class representation.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological and molecular characteristics of neurocutaneous melanosis in children caused by NRAS gene variants.Methods:Three cases of neurocutaneous melanosis from Children's Hospital of Fudan University (case 1 and case 2) and Shanghai Children′s Hospital, School of Medicine Shanghai Jiaotong University (case 3) from July 2022 to February 2023 were collected. The clinical, histopathological, immunohistochemical and genetic results of three patients were retrospectively analyzed. The literatures were reviewed.Results:The patients were all female, aged 5, 4 and 3 years, respectively. The patients presented with severe headache with other symptoms of increased intracranial pressure. Physical examination showed multiple congenital melanocytic nevi throughout the body. Imaging examination showed intracranial masses, which were located in the right cerebellum, pineal gland and left temporal lobe, respectively. The maximum diameters were 39.1 mm, 72.8 mm and 52.2 mm, respectively. Histologically, the tumor showed diffuse sheets of round or oval-shaped cells arranged in nests, with marked nuclear atypia, eosinophilic cytoplasm, dark nuclei, and prominent nucleoli. Giant tumor cells were seen and mitotic figures were easily observed. There were hemorrhage and necrosis. Pigment granules were found in the cytoplasm and stroma in case 1 and case 2. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells showed diffuse and strong staining of SOX10, S-100, HMB45 and Melan A, but did not express GFAP and CKpan. The Ki-67 proliferation index ranged from 30% to 80%. Genetic testing showed that case 1 and case 2 had NRAS Q61K matation, and case 3 had NRAS Q61R mutation. Case 1 and case 3 underwent complete resection of the tumor combined with chemotherapy. Case 2 was diagnosed by biopsy and underwent resection after chemotherapy and radiotherapy. All patients were followed up for 18, 21 and 25 months, respectively. All patients died due to complications such as increased intracranial pressure and hydrocephalus.Conclusions:Neurocutaneous melanosis is a congenital neurocutaneous syndrome caused by abnormal development of embryonic neuroectodermal melanoblasts. Most cases are associated with somatic mutations of NRAS gene. Clinicians should pay attention to the skin manifestations and neuroimaging examination in patients with unexplained intracranial hypertension or epilepsy. The diagnosis of neurocutaneous melanosis depends on histopathology and genetic testing.

Objective:To establish a risk prediction model by analyzing the influencing factors of delivery be-fore 34 weeks' gestatior with singleton pregnancies who underwent transcervical McDonald's cervical cerclage.Methods:Clinical data of 500 pregnant women with singleton pregnancies who underwent McDonald's cervical cerclage in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology,Heping Hospital,General Hospital of the People's Lib-eration Army Northern Theater of Operations from January 1,2019 to February 29,2024 were retrospectively ana-lyzed,and were randomly divided into a training set of 350 cases versus a validation set of 150 cases in accord-ance with a 7∶3 randomization.The data in the training set were screened for predictive variables affecting deliv-ery before 34 weeks' gestation after cervical cerclage using univariate combined multivariate Logistic regression,predictive modeling and assessment were established,and internal validation was performed in the validation set.Results:Preoperative cervical length(CL)＜20 mm,amniotic fluid deposits(AFS),absence of Lactobacillus vagi-nalis,and cervical dilatation＞3 cm were independent risk factors for adverse outcomes of labor and delivery be-fore 34 weeks' gestation after cervical cerclage(OR＞1,P＜0.05),and the Nomogram model constructed on the basis of this was found to have an AUC of 0.887,with a good agreement of the model(H-L test:P=0.905,Brier score of 0.095).The results of the clinical decision curve showed that the clinical decision value of the model was high when the threshold was between 0.10-0.92.The model was internally validated with an AUC of 0.812,and there was a high degree of agreement between the predictions and the actual situation(H-L test:P=0.859).Conclusions:The column-line diagram model constructed on this basis has a high clinical value,which can help us to screen out the high-risk pregnant women and give them individualized interventions in a timely manner.
