Objective To analyze the application effects of artificial intelligence (AI) software and Mimics software in preoperative three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction for thoracoscopic anatomical pulmonary segmentectomy. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy at the Second People's Hospital of Huai'an from October 2019 to March 2024. Patients who underwent AI 3D reconstruction were included in the AI group, those who underwent Mimics 3D reconstruction were included in the Mimics group, and those who did not undergo 3D reconstruction were included in the control group. Perioperative related indicators of each group were compared. Results A total of 168 patients were included, including 73 males and 95 females, aged 25-81 (61.61±10.55) years. There were 79 patients in the AI group, 53 patients in the Mimics group, and 36 patients in the control group. There were no statistical differences in gender, age, smoking history, nodule size, number of lymph node dissection groups, postoperative pathological results, or postoperative complications among the three groups (P>0.05). There were statistical differences in operation time (P<0.001), extubation time (P<0.001), drainage volume (P<0.001), bleeding volume (P<0.001), and postoperative hospital stay (P=0.001) among the three groups. There were no statistical differences in operation time, extubation time, bleeding volume, or postoperative hospital stay between the AI group and the Mimics group (P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in drainage volume between the AI group and the control group (P=0.494), while there were statistical differences in operation time, drainage tube retention time, bleeding volume, and postoperative hospital stay (P<0.05). Conclusion For patients requiring thoracoscopic anatomical pulmonary segmentectomy, preoperative 3D reconstruction and preoperative planning based on 3D images can shorten the operation time, postoperative extubation time and hospital stay, and reduce intraoperative bleeding and postoperative drainage volume compared with reading CT images only. The use of AI software for 3D reconstruction is not inferior to Mimics manual 3D reconstruction in terms of surgical guidance and postoperative recovery, which can reduce the workload of clinicians and is worth promoting.

Objective To investigate whether successful percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)could improve symptoms and quality of life(QOL)in left main disease and/or 3-vessel disease patients with diabetes.Methods Patients with left main disease and/or 3-vessel disease who underwent PCI in the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from April 2018 to May 2021 were consecutively enrolled and subdivided into 2 groups:diabetes and no diabetes.Detailed baseline characteristics,symptoms,including dyspnea and angina,assessed with the Rose dyspnea scale(RDS),Seattle angina questionnaire(SAQ),the European quality of life-5 dimensions(EQ-5D)and 12-item short-form health survey(SF-12)questionnaire respectively,procedural details,and 1 month and 1 year follow-up data were collected.Results Among 440 left main disease and/or 3-vessel disease patients,disease was present in 176(40.00％),who had more hypertension,peripheral artery disease,and LCX lesion(all P＜0.05).The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)and all-cause mortality were similar between the two groups(both P＞0.05)at 1 month follow-up,while all-cause mortality in diabetes patients was significantly higher than those without diabetes at 1 year follow-up(P=0.013).Low left ventricular ejection fraction was an independent risk factor for MACE and all-cause mortality at 1 month and 1 year follow-up after successful revascularization(all P＜0.05).Most importantly,symptoms,including dyspnea and angina,and QOL were markedly improved regardless of diabetes both at 1 month and 1 year follow-up(all P＜0.05).Diabetes patients showed improved dyspnea and QOL at similar degree to the non-diabetes patients(all P＞0.05)and a more significantly relieved angina(P=0.013).Additionally,the number of chronic total occlusion(CTO)per patient was identified as an independent risk factor of dyspnea(OR 0.723,95％CI 0.525～0.997,P=0.048)and angina relief(OR 0.686,95％CI 0.473～0.995,P=0.047),and the contrast volume(OR 0.995,95％CI 0.992～0.999,P=0.008)as an independent risk factor of QOL improvement in diabetic patients.Conclusions Successful PCI is beneficial for relieving symptoms and improving quality of life in patients with diabetes who have left main disease and/or 3-vessel disease.

Abstract In recent years, the prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents has risen rapidly, posing a serious threat to their physical and mental health. To provide scientific, systematic, and standardized weight management guidance for overweight and obese children and adolescents, the study focuses on the core concept of healthy lifestyle intervention, integrates multidisciplinary expert opinions and research findings,and proposes a comprehensive multidisciplinary intervention framework covering scientific exercise intervention, precise nutrition and diet, optimized sleep management, and standardized psychological support. It calls for the establishment of a multi agent collaborative management mechanism led by the government, implemented by families, fostered by schools, initiated by individuals, optimized by communities, reinforced by healthcare, and coordinated by multiple stakeholders. Emphasizing a child and adolescent centered approach, the consensus advocates for comprehensive, multi level, and personalized guidance strategies to promote the internalization and maintenance of a healthy lifestyle. It serves as a reference and provides recommendations for the effective prevention and control of overweight and obesity, and enhancing the health level of children and adolescents.

Objective:To explore the application effect of early enteral nutrition combined with optimized blood glucose management in patients with stress hyperglycemia after cardiac surgery.Methods:A study was conducted to construct an early enteral nutrition and blood glucose optimization management plan for patients with stress hyperglycemia after cardiac surgery.A prospective analysis was conducted from May 2022 to May 2023 in the Cardiothoracic Surgery Intensive Care Unit(CICU)of a tertiary hospital in Shanghai.200 patients with stress hyperglycemia after cardiac surgery were divided into control group(n=100)and observation group(n=100)by random number table method.The control group received routine enteral nutrition and blood glucose management plan,while the observation group received early enteral nutrition combined with blood glucose optimization management plan.Nutrition related outcome indicators,blood glucose management quality indicators,and patient prognosis indicators were compared between two groups of patients.Results:After implementing the early enteral nutrition combined with optimized blood glucose management plan,the nutritional indicators(serum prealbumin,hemoglobin,and 7-day calorie compliance rate)of the observation group were higher than those of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05);The maximum blood glucose fluctuation amplitude,insulin use time,and incidence of hypoglycemia in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05),and the time within the glucose target range was significantly higher than that in the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05);The mechanical ventilation time,ICU stay time,and total hospital stay in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusions:Early enteral nutrition combined with optimized blood glucose management can effectively improve the nutritional status of patients with stress hyperglycemia after cardiac surgery,reduce blood glucose fluctuations,improve blood glucose management quality,and promote patient outcomes and prognosis.

Objective:To explore the epidemiological characteristics, clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, and imaging features of children with HRV-associated pneumonia, and to analyze the clinical features and risk factors associated with severe HRV pneumonia, providing references for clinical management.Methods:A single-center, retrospective, observational study was conducted, including 1 001 cases of HRV-positive children with pneumonia admitted to the Respiratory Department of the Affiliated Children′s Hospital of Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 2019 to December 2023. Among them, 584 cases (58.3%) were male and 417 cases (41.7%) were female, with an age range of 0.1 to 14.9 years, a median age of 3.42 years, and a mean age of (3.92±2.75) years. According to clinical guidelines, the cases were divided into a mild pneumonia group (855 cases, 510 males, 345 females) and a severe pneumonia group (146 cases, 73 males, 73 females). Basic information, clinical, laboratory, and imaging data were collected from the electronic medical record system. Comparisons between different age groups, diagnoses, and pneumonia severity groups were performed using the χ2 test. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors for the severity of HRV pneumonia. Results:Among the 1 001 cases of HRV-associated bronchopneumonia, 146 cases (14.6%) were severe pneumonia. The age of severe HRV pneumonia patients was significantly higher than that of the mild pneumonia group (5.2 years vs. 3.7 years, t=-6.050, P<0.01). Severe HRV pneumonia had a higher incidence in autumn and winter (60.9%). Severe HRV pneumonia was associated with higher levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), C-reactive protein (CRP), neutrophils, and creatinine (correlation coefficients 0.198, 0.334, 0.104, 0.142, P<0.01), and lower levels of albumin (correlation coefficient 0.308, P<0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that co-infection with Streptococcus pneumoniae or Mycoplasma was an independent risk factor for severe HRV pneumonia [ OR=1.611, 95% confidence interval ( CI):1.066-2.435, P<0.05; OR=3.355, 95% CI:2.062-5.458, P<0.01]. Conclusion:The infection rate of HRV is higher in preschool and school-age children. Severe HRV pneumonia is associated with increased levels of LDH, CRP, neutrophils, and creatinine, as well as decreased levels of albumin. Co-infection with Streptococcus pneumoniae or Mycoplasma may be an independent risk factor for severe HRV pneumonia. High-risk children require enhanced monitoring and early intervention to improve prognosis.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of mild hypothermia arch-clamping technique in the surgical treatment of DeBakey Type Ⅰ aortic dissection.Methods:From December 2019 to November 2023, a total of 97 patients with DeBakey type Ⅰ aortic dissection who underwent arch-clamping technique in Beijing Anzhen Hospital were prospectively enrolled. The patients were divided into mild hypothermia group and moderate hypothermia group according to the lowest rectal temperature during the circulatory arrest period. The perioperative data of the two groups were compared, and complex adverse outcomes consisting of 30-day death, stroke, paraplegia and CRRT were used as the primary endpoint. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine the predictors of clinical adverse outcomes. Survival analysis was evaluated by the Kaplan- Meier method. Results:The overall incidence of complex adverse outcomes was 20.6%, 13.6% in the mild hypothermia group and 22.7% in the moderate hypothermia group( P=0.535), and the incidence of stroke was 4.6% and 6.7%( P=1.000), respectively. The cardiopulmonary bypass time and aortic-clamping time in the mild hypothermia group were significantly shortened (147.5 min vs. 163.0 min, P=0.032; 89 min vs. 99 min, P=0.042). There was no significant difference in long-term survival and reintervention between the two groups(91.9% vs. 89.3%, P=0.87; 9.1% vs. 5.3%, P=0.13). Conclusion:Mild hypothermia arch-clamping technique is a safe and effective method for the treatment of DeBakey type Ⅰ aortic dissection, with satisfactory short-term and long-term efficacy.

Objective:To understand the pathogen distribution characteristics of acute lower respiratory tract infections (ALRTI) in hospitalized children in the Department of Respiratory Medicine, Capital Center for Chlidren's Health, Capital Medical University from 2019 to 2023, and to analyze their epidemiological features.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted, including 5 558 children aged 0-18 years who were hospitalized and diagnosed with ALRTI in the respiratory department of Capital Center for Chlidren's Health, Capital Medical University from December 8, 2019, to December 31, 2023. Nasopharyngeal swabs, sputum, and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid specimens were collected for pathogen detection.Results:Among the 5 558 ALRTI hospitalized children, the positive detection rate of pathogens was 81.81% (4 547/5 558). In bronchoalveolar lavage fluid specimens, Mycoplasma pneumoniae had the highest detection rate (33.52%), while Streptococcus pneumoniae had the highest detection rate (24.38%) in upper respiratory tract specimens. Mycoplasma pneumoniae (54.21%, χ2=1 034.58, P<0.001) and adenovirus (5.09%, χ2=10.84, P=0.013) were most common in school-age children, human rhinovirus was more common in toddlers (26.42%, χ2=122.36, P<0.001), and respiratory syncytial virus had the highest infection rate in infants (28.61%, χ2=326.47, P<0.001). A total of 52.06% of the children had mixed infections (2 367/4 547), with the highest proportion of mixed infections in infants (62.54%). During the post- non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) period, the proportions of Mycoplasma pneumoniae (69.88% vs. 58.16%), human rhinovirus (30.37% vs. 14.02%), adenovirus (51.16% vs. 6.45%), influenza A virus (36.46% vs. 16.67%), and mixed infections (33.33% vs. 19.04%) in school-age children were significantly higher than during the NPIs period. In contrast, the proportions of respiratory syncytial virus (33.19% vs. 19.42%), adenovirus (11.29% vs. 4.65%), and mixed infections (17.75% vs. 10.89%) in infants were significantly lower than during the NPIs period. Conclusion:NPIs have changed the detection rate and epidemiology of respiratory pathogens in hospitalized children. After the end of NPIs, outbreaks of some pathogens may occur, so it is necessary to strengthen rapid pathogen detection, population surveillance, and health education.

Neuropathic pain, a debilitating condition caused by dysfunction of the somatosensory nervous system, remains difficult to treat due to limited understanding of its molecular mechanisms. Bioinformatics analysis identified cerebellin 2 (CBLN2) as highly enriched in human and murine proprioceptive and nociceptive neurons. We found that CBLN2 expression is persistently upregulated in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) following spinal nerve ligation (SNL) in mice. In addition, transcription factor SOX11 binds to 12 cis-regulatory elements within the Cbln2 promoter to enhance its transcription. SNL also induced SOX11 upregulation, with SOX11 and CBLN2 co-localized in nociceptive neurons. The siRNA-mediated knockdown of Sox11 or Cbln2 attenuated SNL-induced mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia. High-throughput sequencing of DRG following intrathecal injection of CBLN2 revealed widespread gene expression changes, including upregulation of numerous NF-κB downstream targets. Consistently, CBLN2 activated NF-κB signaling, and inhibition with pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate reduced CBLN2-induced pain hypersensitivity, proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines production, and neuronal hyperexcitability. Together, these findings identified the SOX11/CBLN2/NF-κB axis as a critical mediator of neuropathic pain and a promising target for therapeutic intervention.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore the association between body mass index (BMI) and mortality based on the 10-year population-based multicenter prospective study. METHODS: A general population-based multicenter prospective study was conducted at four sites in rural China between 2013 and 2023. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic spline analyses were used to assess the association between BMI and mortality. Stratified analyses were performed based on the individual characteristics of the participants. RESULTS: Overall, 19,107 participants with a sum of 163,095 person-years were included and 1,910 participants died. The underweight (< 18.5 kg/m ²) presented an increase in all-cause mortality (adjusted hazards ratio [ aHR] = 2.00, 95% confidence interval [ CI]: 1.66-2.41), while overweight (≥ 24.0 to < 28.0 kg/m ²) and obesity (≥ 28.0 kg/m ²) presented a decrease with an aHR of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.52-0.73) and 0.51 (95% CI: 0.37-0.70), respectively. Overweight ( aHR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.67-0.86) and mild obesity ( aHR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.59-0.87) had a positive impact on mortality in people older than 60 years. All-cause mortality decreased rapidly until reaching a BMI of 25.7 kg/m ² ( aHR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.92-0.98) and increased slightly above that value, indicating a U-shaped association. The beneficial impact of being overweight on mortality was robust in most subgroups and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION This study provides additional evidence that overweight and mild obesity may be inversely related to the risk of death in individuals older than 60 years. Therefore, it is essential to consider age differences when formulating health and weight management strategies.
