On October 9, 2024, the General Office of the National Health Commission, the General Office of the Ministry of Education, the General Department of the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and the General Department of the National Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention jointly issued the Action Plan for Enhancing Medical Humanistic Care (2024-2027), stating that medical humanistic spirit is a concrete manifestation of humanistic spirit in the medical field. Aiming at caring for and respecting patients, this spirit reflects the attitude of medicine towards life. The cultivation of medical humanistic care competencies should serve as a core element of modern medical education, running through the entire process of the medical students’ training system and the full stage of medical workers’ career development. The humanities team of Harbin Medical University pioneered the “consistent system” concept of medical humanities education, inherited the “four-stage” with clinical practice as the primary approach, and closely focused on “three combinations, two considerations, and one assessment.” Through deeply integrating medicine with the humanities, as well as theory with practice, they have embarked on a distinctive implementation path of medical humanities, laying a solid foundation for the cultivation of high-quality medical talents with both skills and expertise in practice.

Background:
and Purpose In patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO), intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) frequently alters thrombus location; however, the clinical impact of this phenomenon remains unclear. We aimed to compare post-IVT thrombus dynamics between tenecteplase and alteplase and to evaluate the association between thrombus dynamics and 3-month outcomes.
Methods:
This retrospective study analyzed prospectively collected, multicenter data from consecutive patients with LVO who underwent bridging therapy between January 2022 and December 2024. Thrombus dynamics were classified as resolution, migration, or stability. Analyses incorporated propensity score matching with weighting to balance baseline characteristics.
Results:
Of the 806 initially included patients, 746 were included after matching (373 treated with tenecteplase and 373 treated with alteplase). The incidence of thrombus migration was significantly higher in the tenecteplase group than in the alteplase group (19.3% vs. 11.3%; odds ratio [OR]: 1.92; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.27–2.91). The advantage of tenecteplase over alteplase was restricted to patients with an IVT-to-puncture time of <60 minutes (18.6% vs. 6.2%; p=0.001) and was no longer significant when the interval ≥60 minutes (19.7% vs. 15.0%; p=0.204; pinteraction=0.043). Additionally, thrombus migration was associated with a better functional outcome (OR: 1.62; 95% CI 1.04–2.53). Finally, tenecteplase was associated with improved functional independence compared with alteplase (OR: 1.43; 95% CI 1.04–1.95).
Conclusions
Tenecteplase demonstrated superior efficacy in inducing thrombus migration compared with alteplase, particularly within 60 minutes of IVT administration. Thrombus migration independently predicted improved functional independence. These findings support the preferential use of tenecteplase for bridging therapy in patients with LVO.

Natural products (NPs) have historically been a fundamental source for drug discovery. Yet the complex nature of NPs presents substantial challenges in pinpointing bioactive constituents, and corresponding targets. In the present study, an innovative natural product virtual screening-interaction-phenotype (NP-VIP) strategy that integrates virtual screening, chemical proteomics, and metabolomics to identify and validate the bioactive targets of NPs. This approach reduces false positive results and enhances the efficiency of target identification. Salvia miltiorrhiza (SM), a herb with recognized therapeutic potential against ischemic stroke (IS), was used to illustrate the workflow. Utilizing virtual screening, chemical proteomics, and metabolomics, potential therapeutic targets for SM in the IS treatment were identified, totaling 29, 100, and 78, respectively. Further analysis via the NP-VIP strategy highlighted five high-confidence targets, including poly [ADP-ribose] polymerase 1 (PARP1), signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), amyloid precursor protein (APP), glutamate-ammonia ligase (GLUL), and glutamate decarboxylase 67 (GAD67). These targets were subsequently validated and found to play critical roles in the neuroprotective effects of SM. The study not only underscores the importance of SM in treating IS but also sets a precedent for NP research, proposing a comprehensive approach that could be adapted for broader pharmacological explorations.

Objective To explore the association between knee torsion and multiple bony abnormali-ties of the lower limb in patients with recurrent patellar dislocation(RPD).Methods The preoperative imaging data of RPD patients treated in our institution between May 2020 and October 2024 were col-lected retrospectively.A total of 238 patients were included in this study,with 83.6%being females.All patients underwent standard hip-knee-ankle CT scans,and lower limb bony structural parameters were reconstructed and measured using Mimics 20.0,focusing on variables such as knee torsion,femo-ral anteversion(FAA),femoral distal torsion angle(DFTA),supratrochlear spur,tibial tuberosity to trochlear groove distance(TT-TG),Caton-Deschamps index,and tibial torsion.Bony abnormalities were categorized based on previously established risk thresholds.Moreover,chi-square tests were em-ployed to compare the composition ratio differences between knee torsion and multiple lower limb osse-ous abnormalities.Results Among all affected knees,the proportion of excessive knee torsion was 33.6%,while in cases with osseous abnormalities,the value was over 40%.Compared with cases of low knee torsion,patients with excessive knee torsion showed significantly higher proportions of FAA(41.3%vs.27.2%,P=0.028),excessive DFTA(60%vs.32.9%,P<0.001),supratrochlear spur(55%vs.38.6%,P=0.016),trochlear dysplasia(93.8%vs.73.4%,P<0.001),excessive TT-TG(68.8%vs.43.7%,P<0.001),and patella alta(50%vs.22.2%,P<0.001).Additionally,95%of knees with excessive torsion exhibited two or more bony risk factors,whereas 55%had four or more bony structural abnormalities,which was significantly higher than those of low knee torsion(55%vs.21.5%,P<0.001).Conclusion In RPD patients,excessive knee torsion is associated with multiple low-er limb bony abnormalities.Moreover,patients with high knee torsion(>12°)are significantly more likely to have multiple bony abnormalities than those with low torsion.Therefore,in surgical decision-making for such patients,lower limb bony abnormalities should be assessed comprehensively.

Objective:To analyze the intercomparision result of personal dose monitoring and gross alpha/beta detection capability between the disease control and prevention institutions at provincial, municpal and county levels during 2022-2024, in order to provide a reference for radiation detection capability and policy making of these institutions in China.Methods:Data on personal dose monitoring and gross alpha/beta detection, obtanied from the 2022-2024 radiation detection capability intercomparison between the disease control and prevention institutions at different levels, were recorded. Both the qualification rates (including excellence) and excellence rates of all the institutions at all evels from 2022 to 2024 were analyzed using SPSS 22.0.Results:From 2022 to 2024, the number of participating institutions at all levels showed an overall upward trend, increasing from 262 to 430, with particularly notable growth at the municipal level. In the 2024 gross α/β detection capability intercomparison, the non-qualification rate in municipal-level institutions was significantly higher than in county-level institutions ( χ2=10.53, P < 0.05). The qualification rate (including excellence) of the municipal-level gross alpha/beta detection in 2022 and 2024 were lower than in 2023( χ2=29.93, P < 0.01). Among all regions, the 2024 personal dose monitoring intercomparison result showed that the qualification rate (including excellence) in East China was higher than in Southwest and Northwest China ( χ2=15.62, P <0.01). East China also outperformed Northwest China ( χ2=16.21, P <0.01). In the 2022 gross alpha/beta detection capability intercomparison, the qualification rate (including excellent performance) in East China and South China was higher than in Northwest China ( χ2=23.76, 11.22, P<0.01). Overall, East China showed relatively higher qualification rate in intercomparison result of both personal dose monitoring and radiation detection (including excellence), while Northwest China showed lower qualification rates (including excellence). Conclusions:Although the radiation detection capability of disease control and prevention institutions at all levels has improved in recent years, there are still insufficience of detection capabilities at some municipal- and county-level laboratories and even unbalance between different regionas. Policy support should prioritize underdeveloped areas, such as municipal- and county-level institutions and the Northwest, and enhance the technical proficiency and quality management of laboratory personnel.
