This paper proposes a two-stage method integrating visual foundation models (VFM) and diffusion models. The segment anything model (SAM) as VFM is combined with the SegRefiner diffusion model to construct the SAM-SegRefiner framework for automated segmentation of edema, inflammation, and thrombus regions in histopathological images of hemorrhoidal tissue, providing a reproducible technical tool for the objective quantification of pathological morphology and its application in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome research. Trained and validated on multi-center retrospective data, the SAM-SegRefiner model achieved an average pixel accuracy of 95.32% and a mean intersection over union (mIoU) of 66.81% on an independent test set, significantly outperfor-ming comparative models such as U-Net, MixU-Net, and SAM-Med2D, and also demonstrating robust cross-center generalization capability. Furthermore, by correlating the quantitatively segmented results from the model with the patients' TCM syndrome types, the potential associations between pathomorphological features and TCM syndrome differentiation have been explored. The analysis revealed no statistically significant differences in the degree of inflammatory infiltration and thrombus formation among different syndrome types, suggesting a complex relationship between local pathological changes and systemic syndrome manifestations.

BACKGROUND:Patients with lumbar disc herniation have different physical deformities due to nucleus pulposus compression and mechanical imbalance. On this basis,Professor Feng Tianyou proposed the "four-step waist type." Professor Feng Wei proposed the objective quantification of three-dimensional scoliosis angle "four-step waist type."OBJECTIVE:To explore the application value of three-dimensional scoliosis angle in evaluating the efficacy of Feng's spinal manipulation in the treatment of patients with lumbar disc herniation.METHODS:A total of 149 hospitalized patients with lumbar disc herniation were enrolled sequentially,including 96 cases of type-Ⅰ/Ⅱ and 55 cases of type-Ⅲ/Ⅳ. The patients were treated with manual therapy for 2 weeks,and 10 healthy volunteers were included as healthy controls. The three-dimensional scoliosis angle was measured using surface topography technology. The difference of three scoliosis angles between patients with type-Ⅰ/Ⅱ and type-Ⅲ/Ⅳ was compared before and after treatment. The difference between patients after treatment and healthy subjects was compered. The difference of three-dimensional scoliosis angles between type-Ⅰ/Ⅱ and type-Ⅲ/Ⅳ after treatment was compared. The intrinsic correlation of each projection plane of three-dimensional scoliosis angle and its correlation with commonly used clinical efficacy scores were explored.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The three-dimensional scoliosis angle was significantly different in patients with type-Ⅰ/Ⅱ and type-Ⅲ/Ⅳ before and after treatment (P<0.05). (2) There were significant differences in coronal curve angle and transverse curve angle between patients with type-Ⅰ/Ⅱ,type-Ⅲ/Ⅳ and healthy subjects (P<0.05),but there was no significant difference in sagittal curve angle (P>0.05). (3) There was a correlation between the angles of each section of the three-dimensional angle,and there was a correlation between the three-dimensional angle and the subjective scale. (4) It is indicated that the three-dimensional scoliosis angle can quantitatively evaluate the changes of body deformity before and after treatment. Quantitative indicators can reveal the changes in the patient's condition before and after treatment. The three-dimensional scoliosis angle can reflect the severity of the impact on the patient's living conditions,but the evaluation of scoliosis by a single plane parameter has certain limitations.

Hospital culture plays an important role in the orderly operation of large shelter hospitals as well as epidemic prevention and control.From April to May 2022, the shelter hospital of the National Convention and Exhibition Center(Shanghai) had created the large shelter hospital culture co-built by doctors and patients with a greater sense of belonging by taking measures such as joint party building between doctors and patients, giving play to the vanguard force of party members, carrying out various forms of cultural, sports and science popularization activities, encouraging enthusiastic patients to participate in activity planning, focusing on key groups, formulating shelter " residents convention", and so on. These measures ultimately formed cultural adaptation, cultural synchronization and cultural shaping, which were conducive to enhancing the empathy of doctors and patients, improving the effectiveness of medical implementation, and promoting the standardization of shelter management system. This harmonious, warm and autonomous culture co-built by doctors and patients effectively ensures the safe and orderly operation of the shelter hospital, and provides reference for the construction of the cultural system of large shelter hospitals in China.

Objective:To summarize the nursing points of emergency heart transplantation in an elderly patient with fulminant myocarditis and acute myocardial infarction.Methods:Hemorrhage early warning care, cyclic goal-oriented care, rejection and staged care, infection prevention and control care, difficult ventilator weaning care, and individualized rehabilitation care were provided to elderly patient with fulminant myocarditis and acute myocardial infarction after emergency heart transplantation in July 2020 in the First Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang University and the effects were observed.Results:The patient's heart function recovered well after the transplantation, and no rejection reaction occurred. Before discharge, the patient was clear, active and optimistic, eating on his own, walking 300 meters in 6 minutes, and the vital signs were stable. One month after discharge, the patient was followed up to take care of himself and was in a stable mood.Conclusions:Carrying out bleeding prevention, circulatory care, rejection care, infection prevention and control care, ventilator difficulty weaning care and individualized rehabilitation care for elderly patients with fulminant myocarditis and acute myocardial infarction after emergency heart transplantation are effective means to ensure the success of the operation and the recovery of patients after the operation.
