Objective:To explore the construction of an evaluation model for aortic root anatomy and calcium burden in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) stenosis before transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) based on deep learning (DL) algorithms.Methods:A retrospective collection of 362 BAV stenosis patients who underwent TAVR from September 2023 to May 2024 was performed. All patients underwent cardiac CT angiography. The patients were divided into training group ( n=104), internal validation group ( n=206), and external validation group ( n=52). A DL model was trained on the training dataset to assess aortic root anatomy and calcification burden. The evaluation included the segmentation accuracy of the algorithm, the measurement performance of key anatomical structures (i.e., valve leaflets and type-1 and type-2 fusion raphe), and calcification burden, as well as the measurement efficiency. Overall segmentation performance was assessed using the average Dice coefficient (ADC). The fine-scale segmentation quality was validated by the 95th-percentile Hausdorff distance (HD-95) and the average symmetric surface distance (ASSD). The consistency of the measurement results was assessed using the Pearson correlation coefficient and the intraclass correlation coefficient ( ICC) with a two-way mixed model for absolute agreement. In addition, the total time and total mouse movement distance required for manual assessment versus the DL model on the validation datasets were recorded and compared. Results:The algorithm demonstrated excellent segmentation performance on aortic root anatomical targets, achieving outstanding consistency within both internal and external validation datasets (0.955

Objective To understand the current status of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)systematic reviews/Meta-analysis over the past 10 years.Methods Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews,PubMed,Web of Knowledge,CNKI,SinoMed,WanFang Data,VIP databases,as well as the Cochrane Register and PROSPERO registration platform were searched to collect TCM-related systematic reviews/Meta-analysis published between January 2015 and December 2024.Literature was screened,and standardization of institutions,countries,and journals was performed.Data cleaning was conducted,and trends in publication years,high-frequency diseases,journals,institutions,and highly cited papers were analyzed.Results A total of 11,174 papers were included,involving approximately 56,656 authors from 1,422 institutions across 44 countries,covering 1,300 journals and 1,070 diseases.The top five institutions in terms of publications were Beijing University of Chinese Medicine(954 papers),Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine(928 papers),China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences(537 papers),Tianjin University of Chinese Medicine(460 papers),and Chengdu University of Chinese Medicine(393 papers).Foreign institutions with the highest publication volumes were concentrated in South Korea,Iran,and Australia.The most frequently published Chinese journal was Zhongyi Clinical Research with 332 papers,while the most published English journal was Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine with 311 papers.There were 282 single-author papers involving 271 authors,and the most cited paper was referenced 323 times,The three most frequently studied diseases were diabetes(267 papers,2.39％),angina pectoris(214 papers,1.92％),and osteoarthritis(210 papers,1.88％).Non-pharmacological interventions such as acupuncture(1,265 papers,11.32％),auricular therapy(101 papers,0.90％),and Tai Chi(98 papers,0.88％)were most frequently reported.In pharmacological interventions,studies on Tripterygium wilfordii tablets(76 papers,0.68％)and Danhong injection(54 papers,0.48％)were more common.Conclusion The systematic reviews/Meta-analysis method is widely used in the field of TCM,and the field continues to grow.Active academic teams,institutions,and journals have emerged.Over the past decade,there has been a considerable body of evidence in Chinese systematic reviews on TCM for chronic diseases such as diabetes,angina pectoris,and osteoarthritis.In English-language studies,non-pharmacological therapies like acupuncture have been more widely reported,and some high-impact studies have emerged.However,challenges remain,such as issues with research transparency and methodological standardization.Future efforts should focus on establishing transparent systems and quality control mechanisms to further enhance the reliability,accuracy,and dissemination of TCM evidence-based research.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and safety of retrograde single incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) with combined suspension of ligamentum teres hepatis.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to collect clinical data of 570 cases of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) admitted to the Department of Pancreatic and Bariatric Surgery of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from December 2021 to December 2023. Based on the operation methods, 282 cases were classified into retrograde SILC group, 288 cases were classified into three incision LC group. Observation indicators including surgical related index, and incidence of postoperative complications. The continuity data were presented as medium, and compared using Mann-Whitney U test. The comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability test. Results:All cases were successfully performed cholecystectomy. The duration of surgery and the proportion of changes in surgical methods in the SILC group were 45(35, 55) minutes and 12.1%, respectively, while in the three port group they were 50(40, 65) minutes and 1.4%, respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative hospitalization time, and total hospitalization cost of the SILC group were 20(16, 28) mL, 1(1, 1) day, and 13.4(12.9, 14.1) thousand yuan, respectively. The three port group was 18(16, 23) mL, 1(1, 1) day, and 13.4(12.4, 14.6) thousand yuan, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups( P>0.05). In terms of postoperative complications, the overall incidence of SILC and three port group were 4.6% and 3.5% respectively, which did not reach significant statistically difference( P>0.05). Meanwhile, there was no statistically significant difference( P>0.05) in the incidence of biliary tract injury, postoperative bile leakage, postoperative bleeding, incision liquefaction infection, and incision hernia between the two groups. Conclusion:The retrograde single incision laproscopic retrograde cholecystectomy combined with ligamentum teres hepatis suspension can achieve satisfactory therapeutic effects without increasing the surgical duration.

Objective:To study the effect of first drainage failure on the prognosis of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PHCC).Methods:The clinical data of 68 patients with PHCC undergoing surgery in the Department of Pancreatic and Metabolic Surgery of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, Affiliated to the Medical School of Nanjing University, from April 2014 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 46 males and 22 females, aged (63±9) (range, 39-80) years old. The patients were divided into two groups based on whether the first drainage was successful: successful group ( n=34) and failed group ( n=34). The patient's age, gender, first drainage, complications and other clinical data were collected. Patients were followed up by outpatient or telephone review. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis, and log-rank test was used for survival comparison. Results:Compared to the successful group, the drainage time [41(28, 52) d vs. 20(14, 28) d], the drainage tube adjustment rate [32.4%(11/34) vs. 0(0/34)], and the incidence of complications after drainage [88.2% (30/34) vs. 0(0/34)] were all increased in the failed group, with the adjustment rate of drainage position decreased [82.4%(28/34) vs. 100%(34/34)] (all P<0.05). Compared to the successful group, the incidence of abdominal infection was higher [70.6%(24/34) vs. 44.1%(15/34)] in the failed group ( P=0.027). The 5-year cumulative survival rates of the failed group and the successful group were 61.4% and 44.1%, respectively ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared to the patients of PHCC with first successful drainage, the risk of abdominal infection is increased when first drainage failed, while the incidence of postoperative complications, in-hospital mortality and long-term survival rate are comparable.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of dulaglutide combined with metformin in the treatment of obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods A total of 200 obese patients with T2DM who were treated in Shanghai Jiading District Anting Hospital from January 2021 to January 2023 were randomly divided into liraglutide group(n=100)and dulaglutide group(n=100).The liraglutide group was treated with liraglutide combined with metformin,and the dulaglutide group was treated with dulaglutide combined with metformin.Both groups were treated for 3 months.The body metabolic indexes[fasting blood glucose(FBG),2 h postprandial blood glucose(2 h PBG),hemoglobin(HbA1 c),total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG)],body fat composition[body fat rate,body mass index,subcutaneous fat rate of limbs,visceral fat index]and serum adipokines(adiponectin,neuropeptide Q(NPQ),asprosin,irisin)levels were compared before treatment and 3 months after treatment.The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of the two groups were observed.Results After 3 months of treatment,FBG,2 h PBG,HbAlc,TC,TG,body fat rate,body mass index,subcutaneous fat rate of limbs,visceral fat index and asprosin in the two groups were lower than those before treatment,and those in the dulaglutide group were lower than those in the liraglutide group(P＜0.05).After 3 months of treatment,the levels of serum adiponectin,NPQ and irisin in the two groups were higher than those before treatment,and the increase in the dulaglutide group was greater than that in the liraglutide group(P＜0.05).The effective rate of dulaglutide group(98.00%)was higher than that of liraglutide group(91.00%)(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(11.00%,14.00%)(P＞0.05).Conclusion Dulaglutide combined with metformin could improve the metabolic status of obese T2 DM patients,regulate body fat composition and serum adipokines,with significant clinical efficacy and safety.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between complement C3 and urine protein level and proteinuria remission status in patients with primary membranous nephropathy (PMN), and better guide individualized clinical treatment.Methods:It was a single-center retrospective study. The clinical data of PMN patients who underwent renal biopsy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2017 to June 2022 were collected. Patients with 24 h urinary protein ≥ 3.5 g were followed up after receiving standard treatment, and the last outpatient or inpatient review was used as the end point of follow-up. 24 h urine protein was collected to evaluate the remission status of proteinuria. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the correlation between serum and renal complements and proteinuria remission. Cox regression analysis method was used to analyze the correlation between serum C3 level and renal tissue C3 deposition and proteinuria remission.Results:This study included 507 PMN patients with 312 (61.54%) males, aged 54 (43, 64) years old. Compared with 24 h urinary protein < 3.5 g group, proportion of males ( χ2=22.479, P<0.001), age ( Z=-2.521, P=0.012), systolic blood pressure ( Z=-4.148, P<0.001), diastolic blood pressure ( Z=-4.084, P<0.001), serum anti-phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) antibody titer ( Z=-7.019, P<0.001), total cholesterol ( Z=-8.796, P<0.001), triglyceride ( Z=-6.158, P<0.001), low density lipoprotein cholesterol ( Z=-8.716, P<0.001), serum creatinine ( Z=-7.368, P<0.001), serum C3 ( Z=-3.663, P<0.001), serum C4 ( Z=-6.560, P<0.001), proportion of glucocorticoid use ( χ2=116.417, P<0.001) and proportion of immunosuppressant use ( χ2=53.839, P<0.001) were all higher, while serum albumin ( Z=12.518, P<0.001), estimated glomerular filtration rate ( Z=6.345, P<0.001) and serum IgG ( Z=7.321, P<0.001) were all lower in 24 h urinary protein ≥3.5 g group. There were 268 patients included in the follow-up cohort with baseline 24 h urinary protein of 7.15 (5.14, 10.24) g, serum anti-PLA2R antibody titer of 61.44 (14.35, 193.24) RU/ml, serum C3 of 1.005 (0.864, 1.150) g/L, and serum C4 of 0.260 (0.214, 0.317) g/L. Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the incomplete remission rate of proteinuria in serum C3 > 1.005 g/L group was lower than that in serum C3 ≤ 1.005 g/L group (log-rank χ2=4.757, P=0.029). There was no significant difference in the incomplete remission rate of proteinuria between serum C4 ≤ 0.260 g/L group and serum C4 > 0.260 g/L group (log-rank χ2=3.543, P=0.060). Renal C1q (log-rank χ2=0.167, P=0.683) and C4 (log-rank χ2=1.927, P=0.165) deposition had no significant effects on proteinuria remission in PMN patients. The incomplete remission rate of proteinuria in patients with renal C3 deposition was higher than that in patients without renal C3 deposition (log-rank χ2=7.018, P=0.008). Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that serum C3 level and C3 deposition in renal tissues were influencing factors of incomplete remission of proteinuria (both P<0.05), while adjusting for gender, age, mean arterial pressure, serum anti-PLA2R antibody, serum albumin and 24 h urinary protein, serum C3 ≤ 1.005 g/L ( HR=1.374, 95% CI 1.021-1.849, P=0.036), C3 deposition in renal tissues ( HR=1.949, 95% CI 1.098-3.460, P=0.023), and serum C3 ≤ 1.005 g/L combined with C3 deposition in renal tissues ( HR=1.472, 95% CI 1.093-1.983, P=0.011) were independent influencing factors of incomplete remission of proteinuria. Conclusions:The serum C3 level and C3 deposition in renal tissues are closely related to urinary protein level and proteinuria remission status in PMN patients. The patients with higher urinary protein have higher serum C3. For patients with massive proteinuria, serum C3 ≤ 1.005 g/L, C3 deposition in renal tissues, serum C3 ≤ 1.005 g/L combined with C3 deposition in renal tissues are independent risk factors of incomplete remission of proteinuria.

During coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic, the treatment of severe trauma has been impacted. The Consensus on emergency surgery and infection prevention and control for severe trauma patients with 2019 novel corona virus pneumonia was published online on February 12, 2020, providing a strong guidance for the emergency treatment of severe trauma and the self-protection of medical staffs in the early stage of the epidemic. With the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council renaming "novel coronavirus pneumonia" to "novel coronavirus infection" and the infection being managed with measures against class B infectious diseases since January 8, 2023, the consensus published in 2020 is no longer applicable to the emergency treatment of severe trauma in the new stage of epidemic prevention and control. In this context, led by the Chinese Traumatology Association, Chinese Trauma Surgeon Association, Trauma Medicine Branch of Chinese International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Traumatology, the Chinese expert consensus on emergency surgery for severe trauma and infection prevention during coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic ( version 2023) is formulated to ensure the effectiveness and safety in the treatment of severe trauma in the new stage. Based on the policy of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council and by using evidence-based medical evidence as well as Delphi expert consultation and voting, 16 recommendations are put forward from the four aspects of the related definitions, infection prevention, preoperative assessment and preparation, emergency operation and postoperative management, hoping to provide a reference for severe trauma care in the new stage of the epidemic prevention and control.
