Objective:To investigate the correlation between peri-coronary fat attenuation index (FAI) and plaque formation in patients with myocardial bridge (MB) of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) using coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and to develop an optimal predictive model to explore the potential application of FAI in the primary prevention of MB related atherosclerosis.Methods:In this retrospective study, prediction models associated with perivascular fat inflammation were developed and validated using both logistic regression and machine learning (ML) algorithm. A training dataset was collected from 253 patients who underwent ≥2 coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) with ≥3 months intervals from one tertiary hospital from January 2007 to April 2021 and had baseline CCTA showing no plaques in LAD MB. The median follow-up time was 3.2 years. According to the same criteria, a total of 75 LAD MB patients from four other hospitals were included to form an independent external validation dataset, with a median follow-up time of 1.8 years. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis with integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) and category net reclassification index (NRI) were used to compare the performance of the predictive models.Results:62 patients (24.5%) in the training dataset had proximal plaque formation in LAD MB, while 22 patients (29.3%) in the external validation dataset had plaque formation during the follow-up period. Baseline FAI within the longitudinal distance equal to 30 mm proximal to the MB entrance was an independent predictor ( OR=1.068, P=0.046). According to the model results, ROC curves were plotted. The AUC of Model 1 was 0.822, and the AUCs of Model 2 and 1 were 0.821 and 0.591 in the training dataset. After the DeLong test, the AUC of Model 1 was superior to that of Model 2 ( Z=2.839, P=0.005) and Model 1 ( Z=6.124, P<0.001). These findings were further validated in the external validation dataset, where ML-model 3 yielded the best predictive performance, outperforming the logistic regression-based Model 2 (categorical NRI=0.359, P=0.048; IDI=0.108, P=0.046). Conclusion:FAI measured within the 30 mm proximal to the entrance of MBs due to its prone to plaque development is an independent predictor for atherosclerotic plaque formation. The ML-prediction model based on a decision tree algorithm combines FAI, MB anatomical features, and patient risk factors, which is beneficial for patients undergoing routine CCTA examination to identify inflamed coronary arteries in advance and guide the clinical adoption of more targeted preventive treatment, including anti-inflammatory treatment.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of cases involving monkey injuries at medical institutions surrounding Qianlingshan Park in Guiyang City, and to provide a reference basis for preventive measures to reduce monkey injuries and standardized post-exposure treatment.Methods:A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted, collecting 1 900 cases of monkey-induced injuries in Qianlingshan Park treated at the outpatient clinic of Guizhou Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention and the Department of Surgery at Qianling Hospital, Guiyang City, from 2021 to 2024. Statistical analysis was performed using Pearson′s chi-square test.Results:Total of 1 900 cases of monkey-related injuries in Qianlingshan Park were collected from 2021 to 2024. The exposure time distribution exhibited significant seasonality, with 48.58% of cases occurring during July and August, totaling 923 cases, indicating a peak in the summer. There were 774 male patients and 1 126 female patients, with a ratio of 1∶1.45.and significant differences were observed between different age groups and genders (χ2=195.00, P<0.001), with the highest number of cases occurring in the 0-9 and 20-29 age groups, accounting for 22.05%(419 cases) and 21.79%(414 cases), respectively. The upper limbs were the most common injury site, accounting for 50.84% of the total cases(966 cases in total), with significant differences between gender and injury location (χ2=22.00, P<0.001), Among females, the proportion of injuries to the upper and lower limbs (30.11% and 16.47%, respectively) was higher than that among males (20.74% and 8.63%, respectively). The majority of injuries were classified as Grade Ⅲ, making up 57.38% of cases(1 069 cases in total). Self-treatment after exposure was the most common approach(60.44%), with significant differences observed between wound severity and treatment method (χ2=6.90, P=0.032), Patients with Grade Ⅱ and Grade Ⅲ wounds were more likely to choose self-management (26.84% and 33.23%, respectively) than outpatient management (15.14% and 24.15%). Approximately 98.05% (1 863 cases) of monkey-injured patients had received rabies vaccinations. Conclusions:This study analyzes monkey-related injuries in Qianlingshan Park from 2021 to 2024, clarifying the temporal distribution of injuries, demographic characteristics, injury sites, and treatment methods. The findings provide references for optimizing human-monkey conflict management and the prevention and control of zoonotic diseases in urban ecological parks.

Objective:To explore the grouping and standard cost of malignant tumors chemotherapy patients under the diagnosis-intervention packet (DIP) system based on the decision tree model, for references for optimizing the detailed grouping scheme of this disease.Methods:The data of the first page of medical records of malignant tumors chemotherapy patients in a tertiary hospital in 2022 were collected. Univariate analysis and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of patients′ hospitalization expenses. The Chi squared automatic interaction detection was used to construct the decision tree model to obtain the case grouping scheme and its standard expenses. The coefficient of variation and chi-square test were used to evaluate the grouping effect.Results:A total of 27 235 patients were included in this study. The number of surgical operations, length of hospital stay, gender, the number of other diagnoses, chemotherapy pathways and targeted therapy were taken as classification nodes and included in the decision tree model. A total of 13 groups were formed. The homogeneity within the groups was good(CV<0.70), and the heterogeneity between the groups was strong( χ2= 9 564.65, P<0.001). Conclusions:Based on the decision tree model, the grouping scheme for chemotherapy cases of malignant tumors was established by comprehensively considering factors such as surgical operations within the group, length of hospital stay, other diagnostic and chemotherapy pathways is relatively reasonable, which could provide references for relevant management departments to optimize the detailed grouping scheme of this disease and formulate relevant payment standards.

Objective To explore the efficacy of single and combined parameters from 4 non-Gaussian diffusion models for differentiating breast imaging reporting and data system(BI-RADS)MRI category 4 benign and malignant breast tumors.Methods A total of 161 BI-RADS MRI category 4 breast lesions from 159 patients were retrospectively enrolled.Based on pathological results,the lesions were divided into malignant group(n=132)and benign group(n=29).The apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)values were calculated from diffusion weighted imaging(DWI)sequences.Multi-b-value diffusion imaging data were acquired and fitted using 4 non-Gaussian models to obtain respective parameters,including diffusion kurtosis imaging(DKI),stretched exponential model(SEM),continuous-time random walk(CTRW)and fractional order calculus(FROC)model.Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were employed to identify the diffusion quantitative indicators useful for differentiating benign and malignant BI-RADS MRI category 4 breast tumors.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were drawn,and the optimal threshold was determined using Youden index.The differentiating performance of ADC value,single parameter and their combination from non-Gaussian diffusion models were assessed and compared according to the area under the curve(AUC)of ROC curves,as well as the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy under the optimal thresholds.Results In malignant group,αCTRW,KDKI and μFROC values were higher,while ADC,DCTRW,DFROC,DDCSEM,αSEM and DDKI values were lower than those in benign group(all P＜0.05).Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified DCTRW and αCTRW values as independent factors for differentiating benign and malignant BI-RADS MRI category 4 breast tumors(both P＜0.05),and a combined model was then constructed.The AUC of the combined model was higher than that of each single parameter including ADC,DCTRW and αCTRW values(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The combined model of DCTRW and αCTRW had better efficacy than each single parameter for differentiating benign and malignant BI-RADS MRI category 4 breast tumors.

Objective To observe the value of deep learning(DL)reconstruction algorithm for improving imaging quality of accelerated T2WI of cervical tumors.Methods A total of 43 patients with suspected cervical tumors were prospectively enrolled.Cervical conventional T2WI and accelerated T2WI based on DL reconstruction(DL-T2WI)were acquired.The imaging quality was subjectively assessed by 2 physicians using a 4-point system,including overall image quality,artifact,noise,sharpness and lesion detectability scores,and then were compared between conventional T2WI and DL-T2WI.Results The acquisition of conventional T2WI took 116 s,while of DL-T2WI took 101 s.The inter-observer consistency of subjective evaluation results on the overall image quality,artifact,noise,sharpness and lesion detectability scores were all excellent(Kappa=0.851-0.969).No significant difference of subjective evaluation results on overall image quality nor lesion detectability scores was found between conventional T 2WI and DL-T2WI(both P＞0.05),while the artifact and sharpness scores of DL-T2WI were significantly higher but the noise score was significantly lower than those of conventional T2WI(all P＜0.05).Conclusion DL reconstruction algorithm was helpful for improving imaging quality of accelerated T 2WI of cervical tumors.

Objective To understand the current situation of nutrition literacy of primary and secondary school students in Shijingshan District of Beijing, and analyze its influencing factors, and to put forward targeted suggestions for improving the students’ nutrition literacy and promoting their healthy growth. Methods A multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method was used to select 2480 primary and secondary school students and their parents from 5 primary schools, 3 middle schools and 1 high school in Shijingshan District. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors influencing the attainment rate of nutrition literacy. Results The median score of nutrition literacy of 2480 primary and secondary school students from grades 1 to 12 was 77.86 (in hundred-mark system), the quartile range (IQR) was 16.96, and the attainment rate of nutrition literacy was 42.46%. The cognitive level (45.12%) was higher than the skill level (41.20%) among students from grades 3 to 12. In terms of skills, the attainment rate of food preparation was the lowest, at 30.38%. The scores of nutrition literacy of girls were higher than those of boys, and the scores of primary school students were higher than those of secondary school students. Students with different levels of caregiver’s education, family income, and family food environment had different scores of nutrition literacy, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the attainment rate of nutrition literacy was closely related to student’s gender and study stage, caregiver’s education level, and family food environment. Conclusion The nutrition literacy of primary and secondary school students in Shijingshan District still needs to be improved, especially in the aspect of skills. Targeted nutrition education should be carried out.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Next generation sequencing (NGS) technology is playing an increasingly important role in the diagnosis of genetic diseases. Whole exome sequencing (WES), which targets the coding regions of the genome, has been widely used in the diagnosis of genetic diseases for its low cost and high efficiency. However, compared to conventional methods, the Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) process is intricate, and there is variability in the expertise of data analysts and variant interpreters, which may lead to inconsistencies in the outcomes. To ensure the quality of testing and enhance the diagnostic rate of diseases, this consensus has provided recommendations regarding the laboratory setup, operational procedures, data analysis, result interpretation, and quality control for WES, with an aim to standardize its application in the detection of genetic disorders.
