Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of coronary angiography-derived fractional flow reserve (FFR) and index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) for identifying coronary functional abnormalities.Methods:This diagnostic study enrolled patients with clinically suspected or diagnosed coronary artery disease who underwent coronary angiography at Beijing Anzhen Hospital, TEDA International Cardiovascular Hospital, and Qilu Hospital of Shandong University between December 2021 and June 2022. All enrolled patients successfully underwent invasive wire-based FFR and IMR measurements during angiography. In a core laboratory, FFR and IMR for the target vessels were measured using artificial intelligence technology based on coronary angiographic images. Spearman correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between angiography-derived FFR and wire-based FFR, and between angiography-derived IMR and wire-based IMR. Coronary hemodynamic abnormality was defined as FFR≤0.80; the diagnostic performance of angiography-derived FFR for identifying this abnormality was evaluated. Microcirculatory dysfunction was defined as IMR≥25; the diagnostic performance of angiography-derived IMR for identifying microcirculatory dysfunction was evaluated.Results:A total of 181 patients, aged (60.6±8.8) years, with 62 (34.3%) females, and 181 target vessels were included in the final analysis. Angiography-derived FFR showed a significant positive correlation with wire-based FFR ( r=0.78, P<0.001). For identifying coronary hemodynamic abnormality, angiography-derived FFR showed an accuracy of 89.0%, sensitivity of 88.8%, specificity of 89.1%, positive predictive value (PPV) of 88.8%, negative predictive value (NPV) of 89.1%, and an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ( AUC) of 0.88. Angiography-derived IMR showed a significant positive correlation with wire-based IMR ( r=0.93, P<0.001). For identifying microcirculatory dysfunction, angiography-derived IMR demonstrated an accuracy of 89.5%, sensitivity of 86.8%, specificity of 90.2%, PPV of 70.2%, NPV of 96.3%, and an AUC of 0.95. Conclusion:Angiography-derived FFR and IMR exhibit strong correlations with their invasive wire-based counterparts and demonstrate high diagnostic value for assessing coronary hemodynamics and coronary microcirculatory function.

Objective:To investigate the current status of knowledge, attitude, and practice in career planning among medical students and its influencing factors, and to facilitate the education of medical career planning.Methods:The convenience sampling method was used to distribute a self-made questionnaire, and related data were gathered from 295 medical students in Wuhan, China. SPSS 26.0 was used to perform analyses of related categorical variables, including descriptive statistics, univariate tests, rank-sum tests, and the binary logistic regression analysis.Results:The results showed that the medical students with good performance of career planning knowledge, attitude, and practice accounted for 68.48%, 87.12%, and 54.92%, respectively. Major, grade, professional satisfaction, and professional learning objectives were influencing factors for career planning knowledge among the medical students ( P<0.05); the intention for laboratory participation, the basis for major selection, and professional learning objectives were influencing factors for career planning attitude ( P<0.05); grade, internship experience, and professional learning objectives were influencing factors for career planning practice ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Related measures should be adopted to strengthen career planning education for medical talents, such as perfecting the whole-process and multi-agent career planning guidance system, stimulating the enthusiasm of students, and clarifying professional learning objectives.

Two researchers independently evaluated the quality of the included literature and extracted and summarized the evidence of the literature that met the quality standards.Results:A total of 20 literatures were included, including 3 clinical decisions, 2 guidelines, 11 systematic reviews and 4 expert consensuses. A total of 27 pieces of best evidence were compiled from five aspects, including indications for use, clinical effects, safety, methods of use and replacement.Conclusions:This study summarizes the best evidence on the clinical application of closed sputum suction devices in adults. When applying the evidence, clinical nurses need to select the best evidence in combination with the clinical environment to standardize the clinical application of closed tracheal suction systems.
