Cardiac arrest (CA) is a critical condition in the field of cardiovascular medicine. Despite successful resuscitation, patients continue to have a high mortality rate, largely due to post CA syndrome (PCAS). However, the injury and pathophysiological mechanisms underlying PCAS remain unclear. Experimental animal models are valuable tools for exploring the etiology, pathogenesis, and potential interventions for CA and PCAS. Current CA animal models include electrical induction of ventricular fibrillation (VF), myocardial infarction, high potassium, asphyxia, and hemorrhagic shock. Although these models do not fully replicate the complexity of clinical CA, the mechanistic insights they provide remain highly relevant, including post-CA brain injury (PCABI), post-CA myocardial dysfunction (PAMD), systemic ischaemia/reperfusion injury (IRI), and the persistent precipitating pathology. Summarizing the methods of establishing CA models, the challenges encountered in the modeling process, and the mechanisms of PCAS can provide a foundation for developing standardized CA modeling protocols.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is primarily used in clinical practice to provide continuous extracorporeal respiratory and circulatory support for patients with severe heart and lung failure, thereby sustaining life. It is a key technology for managing severe heart failure and respiratory failure that are difficult to control. With the accumulation of clinical experience in ECMO for circulatory and/or respiratory support, as well as advancements in biomedical engineering technology, more portable and stable ECMO devices have been introduced into clinical use, benefiting an increasing number of critically ill patients. Although ECMO technology has become relatively mature, the timing of ECMO initiation, management of sudden complications, and monitoring and early warning of physiological indicators are critical factors that greatly affect the therapeutic outcomes of ECMO. This article reviews traditional methods and artificial intelligence techniques used in risk assessment related to ECMO, including the latest achievements and research hotspots. Additionally, it discusses future trends in ECMO risk management, focusing on six key areas: multi-center and prospective studies, external validation and standardization of model performance, long-term prognosis considerations, integration of innovative technologies, enhancing model interpretability, and economic cost-effectiveness analysis. This provides a reference for future researchers to build models and explore new research directions.

Graduate education is critical for cultivation of high-level talents and promotion of technological innovation. Strengthening the management of graduate education is of great practical significance for ensuring and improving the quality of graduate education. The expansion of graduate education brings challenges to educational resources and management models, requiring research institutions to ensure educational quality and adapt to social needs. Based on the particularity of research institutes, this article takes the practice of radiation health graduate education as an example to explore the graduate student management elements of form teachers in research institutes. Our research provides a reference for improving the management level of graduate students in research institutes. Graduate form teachers are organizers, implementers, and mentors of graduate ideological education, academic culture, daily management, employment and entrepreneurship, and mental health education. They play an important role as a bridge and link in graduate education and cultivation. Faced with the challenges of graduate education in the new era, form teachers should continuously explore work methods that adapt to the needs of the era. They should also focus on reinforcing ideological and political theories, improving professional skills, establishing and improving management systems, and leveraging the role of student cadres to ensure the high-quality development of graduate education in research institutes.

Objective To investigate the serum levels of homocysteine(HCY)and cystatin C(Cys-C)in patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody(ANCA)-associated vasculitis(AAV)associated renal injury,and to explore the diagnostic value of combined detection of HCY and Cys-C in ANCA-associated renal injury.Methods We selected 70 ANCA-positive patients with renal injury admitted to the Department of Nephrology in our hospital from January 2016 to January 2019.Another 48 patients with ANCA-positive but not complicated with renal injury were in simple ANCA positive group while 50 patients with physical examination who came to the hospital during the same period were in control group.Healthy patients served as the control group.By comparing the differences in the test results of different groups,the area under the curve(AUC)of each test index for ANCA-positive renal injury was determined,and the correlation and diagnostic value of combined detection of HCY and Cys-C for ANCA-related renal injury were calculated.Results The levels of HCY and Cys-C in the ANCA positive combined with renal injury group,the pure ANCA positive group,and the control group differed significantly(P＜0.05).The positive rates of HCY and Cys-C in the two groups were significantly different(P＜0.05).The sensitivity and specificity of HCY and Cys-C in combination for the diagnosis of ANCA-positive related renal injury were significantly higher than those of the above indicators alone(P＜0.05).ROC curve results showed that HCY combined with Cys-C had a better diagnosis for patients with positive ANCA and associated renal injury and a higher correlation.Conclusion HCY combined with Cys-C is closely correlated to ANCA-related renal injury,and the combined detection has a positive effect on the diagnosis of patients with ANCA-positive related renal injury,and has guiding value for the treatment of patients.

Purpose: In non-metastatic prostate cancer (nmPCa) setting, it is important to early identify the patients at risk of biochemical recurrence (BCR) for immediate postoperative intervention. Our study aimed to evaluate the potential clinical utility of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) for predicting disease recurrence. Materials and Methods: This real-world observational study evaluated 161 cases of nmPCa undergoing next-generation sequencing at our institution. A total of 139 ctDNA samples and 31 biopsied tumor tissue underwent genomic profiling. The study endpoint was BCR after radical prostatectomy. Relationships between the ctDNA status and the biochemical progression-free survival (bPFS) were analyzed by log-rank test and multivariate Cox regression. Results: Of 161 enrolled patients, 19 (11.8%) harbored deleterious alterations in NCOR2, followed by BRCA2 (3.7%), ATR (2.5%), and CDK12 (2.5%). Of available pre-operative blood samples (n=139), ctDNA was detectable in 91 (65.5%). Until last follow-up, 56 of 68 patients (85.3%) with detectable ctDNA had achieved BCR, whereas only eight of 39 patients (20.5%) with undetectable ctDNA had achieved BCR. Patients who had undetectable ctDNA experienced significantly longer bPFS compared with those who had detectable ctDNA (not available vs. 8.2 months; hazard ratio, 0.14; p < 0.01). Pre-operative ctDNA status was a significant prognostic factor of disease recurrence. Conclusion Pre-operative ctDNA detection could identify patients at high risk of recurrence and has the potential to inform immediate postoperative interventions, but these approaches remain to be validated in prospective studies. ctDNA studies can provide insights into accurate monitoring and precise treatment rather than simply following routine clinical care.

Objective:To investigate the mediating roles of the fear of missing out and mobile phone addiction between the basic psychological needs satisfaction and phubbing behavior among high school students.Methods:In April 2022, a cross-sectional design survey was conducted on 14 666 high school students. All participants were evaluated by the basic psychological needs scales(BPNS), generic scale of phubbing(GSP), trait-state fear of missing out scale(T-S FOMOS) and mobile phone addiction index(MPAI). The SPSS 26.0 software was used to conduct common method deviation test, descriptive statistics, and correlation analysis.PROCESS 4.1 was used to construct the model, and the Bootstrap method was used to test for mediating effects.Results:(1)Among the 14 036 high school students, there were 1 752 (12.48%) students who were addicted to mobile phones.There were significant differences in gender in the scores including BPNS(boy: 4.43±0.79, girl: 4.36±0.79), GSP(boy: 2.72±1.01, girl: 2.76±1.03) and T-S FOMOS(boy: 1.73±0.60, girl: 1.84±0.64), ( t=5.22, -10.58, -2.78, all P<0.01). Among different grades, there were significant differences in the scores of BPNS, T-S FOMOS, MPAI, and GSP( F=25.43, 39.50, 53.45, 14.59, all P<0.01). (2)Basic psychological needs score were positively correlated with fear of missing out, mobile phone addiction and phubbing( r=-0.432--0.294, all P<0.01). Phubbing were negatively correlated with fear of missing out and mobile phone addiction( r=0.744, 0.538, both P<0.01). Fear of missing out were negatively correlated with mobile phone( r=0.646, P<0.01). (3)The basic psychological needs satisfaction had a direct effect on phubbing behavior, and the effect value was -0.188 (95% CI: -0.173--0.204). The mediating effect of fear of missing out between the basic psychological needs satisfaction and phubbing behavior was -0.035(95% CI: -0.028--0.042). The mediating effect of mobile phone between the basic psychological needs satisfaction and phubbing behavior was -0.203(95% CI: -0.191--0.214). Fear of missing out and mobile phone addiction played a chain mediating role between them, and the mediating effect value was -0.134(95% CI: -0.125--0.143), which accounted for 23.93%(-0.134/-0.560) of the total effect. Conclusion:The high level basic psychological needs satisfaction can alleviate the occurrence of phubbing behavior. It may be achieved by decreasing fear of missing out and reducing mobile phone addiction.

Objective:To investigate clinicopathological features of hypopigmented mycosis fungoides (HMF) and hypopigmented interface T-cell dyscrasia (HITCD) .Methods:A total of 41 patients with cutaneous hypopigmented lymphoproliferative diseases, who had complete clinicopathological data, were collected from Department of Dermatology, the Third People′s Hospital of Hangzhou from January 2015 to September 2020, and the clinicopathological and immunophenotypic features were analyzed. Comparisons of normally distributed measurement data were carried out using t test, comparisons of categorical data using Chi-square test or Fisher′s exact test, and comparisons of ranked data between 2 groups using rank-sum test. Results:All of the 41 patients clinically presented with irregular hypopigmentation, some of which was accompanied by erythema or furfuraceous scales. In terms of pathological features, 21 patients showed infiltration and aggregation of atypical lymphoid cells in the epidermis, which was consistent with typical pathological features of mycosis fungoides, and they were diagnosed with HMF; 20 patients showed vacuolar degeneration of the basal layer, accompanied by infiltration of lymphoid cells and mild epidermotropism, and they were diagnosed with HITCD. All immune cells expressed T-cell phenotype, and epidermal lymphocytes expressed a CD8-dominated phenotype in 14 (67%) cases of HMF and 13 (65%) of HITCD. In the epidermis, the total number of lymphocytes was significantly higher in the HMF group than in the HITCD group ( t= 1.81, P= 0.012) ; in the dermis, the number of CD4 + lymphocytes and CD8 + lymphocytes, and the total number of lymphocytes were all significantly higher in the HMF group than in the HITCD group ( t= 2.64, 1.51, 2.60, P= 0.012, 0.002, 0.001, respectively) . All patients were treated with narrow-band ultraviolet B radiation. Among 34 patients who completed the follow-up, 30 achieved complete clearance of skin lesions without recurrence, including all patients with HITCD, and 4 with HMF achieved partial regression of the lesions. Conclusions:Compared with HMF, HITCD presents different pathological characteristics and benign biological behaviors. Thus, HITCD should be distinguished from HMF as an independent disease. Phototherapy alone is effective for the treatment of HITCD.
