Objective To analyze the influence of intraoperative blood glucose fluctuation and postoperative insulin resistance(IR)on postoperative cognitive dyfunction(POCD)in elderly patients undergoing thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer under general anesthesia.Methods A total of 352 elderly patients undergoing thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer under general anesthesia were collected and divided into the POCD group(n=84)and the non-POCD group(n=268).The covariates between the two groups were balanced by propensity score matching method(PSM).Eighty-four cases in each group were successfully matched.The data between the two groups before and after PSM were compared.After PSM,receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve of blood glucose fluctuation amplitude for predicting POCD was drawn,and patients were divided into the low-level blood glucose fluctuation group(n=97)and the high-level blood glucose fluctuation group(n=71)according to the cut-off value.According to the existence of postoperative IR,patients were divided into the IR group(n=53)and the non-IR group(n=115).Then,incidences of POCD between groups were compared.Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of POCD.Results Before PSM,the POCD group had older age,higher blood glucose fluctuation amplitude,IR ratio,operation time,anesthesia time,propofol dosage,remifentanil dosage and sufentanil dosage in anesthesia maintenance period than those in the non-POCD group(P＜0.05).The POCD group had higher blood glucose fluctuation amplitude and IR ratio than those in the non-POCD group after PSM(P＜0.05).After PSM,the incidences of POCD in the high-level blood glucose fluctuation group and the IR group were higher than those in the low-level blood glucose fluctuation group and the non-IR group(P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that higher intraoperative blood glucose fluctuation(OR=9.140,95%CI:4.338-19.257)and postoperative IR(OR=4.034,95%CI:1.163-13.991)were risk factors of POCD.Conclusion The risk of POCD in elderly patients undergoing thoracoscopic radical lung cancer surgery under general anesthesia is increased in patients with higher intraoperative blood glucose fluctuation and postoperative IR.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment strategy of the portal vein complications in children undergoing split liver transplantation. Methods The clinical data of 88 pediatric recipients who underwent split liver transplantation were retrospectively analyzed. Intraoperative anastomosis at the bifurcating site of the portal vein or donor iliac vein bypass anastomosis was performed depending on the internal diameter and development of the recipient's portal vein. A normalized portal venous blood stream monitoring was performed during the perioperative stage. After operation, heparin sodium was used to bridge warfarin for anticoagulation therapy. After portal vein stenosis or thrombosis was identified with enhanced CT or portography, managements including embolectomy, systemic anticoagulation, interventional thrombus removal, balloon dilatation and/or stenting were performed. Results Among the 88 recipients, a total of 10 children were diagnosed with portal vein complications, of which 4 cases were diagnosed with portal vein stenosis at 1 d, 2 months, 8 months, and 11 months after surgery, and 6 cases were diagnosed with portal vein thrombosis at intraoperative, 2 d, 3 d (n=2), 6 d, and 11 months after surgery, respectively. One patient with portal vein stenosis and one patient with portal vein thrombosis died perioperatively. The fatality related to portal vein complications was 2% (2/88). Of the remaining 8 patients, 1 underwent systemic anticoagulation, 2 underwent portal venous embolectomy, 1 underwent interventional balloon dilatation, and 4 underwent interventional balloon dilatation plus stenting. No portal venous related symptoms were detected during postoperative long term follow up, and the retested portal venous blood stream parameters were normal. Conclusions The normalized intra- and post-operative portal venous blood stream monitoring is a useful tool for the early detection of portal vein complications, the early utilization of useful managements such as intraoperative portal venous embolectomy, interventional balloon dilatation and stenting may effectively treat the portal vein complications, thus minimizing the portal vein complication related graft loss and recipient death.

The key pathogenesis of coronary heart disease （CHD） is spleen deficiency and phlegm stasis， and dysfunctional high-density lipoprotein （dys-HDL） may be the biological basis for the occurrence of CHD due to spleen deficiency and phlegm stasis. Considering the biological properties and effects of high-density lipoprotein （HDL）， it is believed that the structure and components of HDL are abnormal in the state of spleen deficiency which led to dys-HDL； and dys-HDL contributes to the formation of atherosclerotic plaques through two major pathways， namely， mediating the dysfunction of endothelial cells and mediating the foaminess of macrophages and smooth muscle cells， thus triggering the development of CHD. It is also believed that dys-HDL is a microcosmic manifestation and a pathological product of spleen deficiency， and spleen deficiency makes foundation for the production of dys-HDL； dys-HDL is also an important biological basis for the phlegm-stasis interactions in CHD. The method of fortifying spleen， resolving phlegm， and dispelling stasis， is proposed as an important principle in the treatment of CHD by traditional Chinese medicine， which can achieve the therapeutic purpose by affecting the changes in the structure and components of dys-HDL， thus revealing the scientific connotation of this method， and providing ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of CHD by traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective: To systematically evaluate the incidence and influencing factors of depression in family caregivers of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients, so as to provide the basis for the prevention and treatment of depression among the family caregivers of AD patients. Methods: Publications pertaining to depression in family caregivers of AD patients were retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Data, PubMed and other databases from the time of their establishment to June 15, 2023. The evaluation criteria recommended by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale were used to assess the quality of cross-sectional and cohort studies, respectively. Stata 16.0 and Revman 5.4 softwares were used to conduct a meta-analysis on the incidence and influencing factors of depression in family caregivers of AD patients. Sensitivity analysis and publication bias assessment were also performed on the results. Results: A total of 2 324 articles were retrieved, and ultimately 14 articles were included, with a total sample size of 8 313 individuals. There were 6 high-quality articles and 8 moderate-quality articles. Meta-analysis showed that the incidence of depression in family caregivers of AD patients was 37.5% (95%CI: 30.2%-45.1%). Factors associated with depression included patients' high degree of dementia (OR=1.718, 95%CI: 1.059-2.789), patients' low scores on Activities of Daily Living Scale (OR=1.344, 95%CI: 1.059-1.706), patients' psychobehavioral abnormalities (OR=1.248, 95%CI: 1.155-1.348), long duration of caregiving (OR=1.998, 95%CI: 1.637-2.437), less involvement of other family members in caregiving (OR=1.597, 95%CI: 1.237-2.061), low educational level (OR=1.191, 95%CI: 1.044-1.359), poor caregiving skills (OR=3.060, 95%CI: 2.257-4.149), poor self-rated health (OR=2.536, 95%CI: 1.114-5.771) and social support (OR=0.424, 95%CI: 0.232-0.774). The results of depression incidence demonstrated good stability with no significant publication bias. However, publication bias was observed in the influencing factors for depression, which were patients' high degree of dementia and patients' low scores on Activities of Daily Living Scale. Conclusions The incidence of depression in family caregivers of AD patients ranges from 30.2% to 45.1%. It is primarily influenced by the severity of patients' symptoms and ability to perform daily activities, and caregivers' educational level, caregiving skills, health status, caregiving duration and social support.

The early diagnosis of Alzheimer′s disease (AD) has long been a challenge in the field of medicine. In recent years, research on blood biomarkers of AD has flourished, which holds significant promise for advancing the early diagnosis, monitoring, and early intervention of AD. With the new generation of ultra-sensitive detection techniques, a series of studies have successfully validated core biomarkers, non-specific biomarkers, and other relevant biomarkers of AD in blood. However, the use of blood-based biomarkers for the diagnosis and prediction of AD still faces some challenges related to accuracy and robustness. This article compiles and analyzes the advances, strengths, and limitations of each type of biomarkers, and provides several potential strategies to address these challenges.

Objective:To investigate the safety and therapeutic effect of split liver transplantation (SLT) in clinical application.Methods:This is a retrospective case-series study. The clinical data of 203 consecutive SLT, 79 living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) and 1 298 whole liver transplantation (WLT) performed at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from July 2014 to July 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Two hundred and three SLT liver grafts were obtained from 109 donors. One hundred and twenty-seven grafts were generated by in vitro splitting and 76 grafts were generated by in vivo splitting. There were 90 adult recipients and 113 pediatric recipients. According to time, SLT patients were divided into two groups: the early SLT group (40 cases, from July 2014 to December 2017) and the mature SLT technology group (163 cases, from January 2018 to July 2023). The survival of each group was analyzed and the main factors affecting the survival rate of SLT were analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier method and Log-rank test were used for survival analysis.Results:The cumulative survival rates at 1-, 3-, and 5-year were 74.58%, 71.47%, and 71.47% in the early SLT group, and 88.03%, 87.23%, and 87.23% in the mature SLT group, respectively. Survival rates in the mature SLT group were significantly higher than those in the early SLT group ( χ2=5.560, P=0.018). The cumulative survival rates at 1-, 3- and 5-year were 93.41%, 93.41%, 89.95% in the LDLT group and 87.38%, 81.98%, 77.04% in the WLT group, respectively. There was no significant difference among the mature SLT group, the LDLT group and the WLT group ( χ2=4.016, P=0.134). Abdominal hemorrhage, infection, primary liver graft nonfunction,and portal vein thrombosis were the main causes of early postoperative death. Conclusion:SLT can achieve results comparable to those of WLT and LDLT in mature technology liver transplant centers, but it needs to go through a certain time learning curve.

The second plenary session of the 20th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection proposed the"develop-ment of a five-year plan for information technology construction to establish a digital disciplinary inspection and supervision system that covers the entire process and all elements."This provides guidance and momentum for disciplinary inspection agencies at all levels to implement the strategic deployment of the Party's 20th National Congress regarding comprehensive and strict governance of the Party.In this context,utilizing information technology to enhance the efficiency of supervision,discipline enforcement,and accountability while ensuring the high-quality development of public hospitals has become a key task for their disciplinary inspec-tion departments.The Disciplinary Inspection Commission of a public hospital has explored the establishment of a disciplinary in-spection management platform to achieve modular management of inspection tasks.By utilizing functions such as task allocation,statistical analysis,data migration,and early warning reminders,the platform aims to improve the efficiency of disciplinary in-spection work.This approach helps address the challenges of heavy workloads and limited inspection resources in hospitals,enab-ling real-time supervision,early warning correction,and time-bound oversight,thereby providing strong support for the construc-tion of integrity in the hospital.

Objective:To investigate the accuracy and feasibility of applying rapid immunohistochemistry(IHC) with CK5/6 antibodies in prostate biopsy tissues to assist frozen pathology diagnosis.Methods:The data of 41 patients who underwent prostate puncture and frozen tissue rapid IHC with CK5/6 antibody in Beijing Hospital from October 2022 to April 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The median age of the patients was 76 (69, 79) years old, and the median PSA value was 12.37 (7.07, 26.17) ng/ml.The Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) scores of the target lesions were all ≥3. The PI-RADS score of 9 patients(21.95%) was 3, 15 (36.59%) was 4, and 17(41.46%) was 5. The median diameter of the lesions in the MRI examination was 1.40 (1.09, 2.20) cm.Fourteen lesions (34.14%) were located in the migratory zone, 23 (56.10%) were located in the peripheral zone, and 4 (9.76%) involved both peripheral and migratory zone lesions. Transperineal cognitive fusion targeted combined systematic biopsy was used, and intraoperatively, 1 additional needle was taken from each of the target and non-target areas for frozen pathology section, and hematoxylin eosin(HE) staining and rapid IHC staining with CK5/6 antibody was performed, then the frozen remaining tissue was HE staining and CK5/6 IHC staining. Data such as HE and rapid IHC results of frozen pathology sections and HE and IHC results of routine sections of the frozen remaining tissues, International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) grading groupings(GG), and actual diagnostic results of targeted combined systematic puncture were recorded. Using the routine IHC results of the same needle tissue as the gold standard, the sensitivity and positive predictive value of applying rapid IHC frozen pathology to diagnose prostate cancer and the accuracy of its pathological GG were analyzed.Results:Among the 41 patients, a total of 35 cases were diagnosed with prostate cancer(PCa) by HE staining in frozen section of target tissue, with a positivity rate of 85.37%(35/41). Among these, there were 17 cases (48.57%) in ISUP GG 1, 8 cases (22.86%) in GG 2, 4 cases (11.43%) in GG 3, and 6 cases (17.14%) in GG 4 to 5. In addition, a total of 35 cases were diagnosed with PCa by HE staining in frozen remaining section of target tissue, with a positivity rate of 85.37%(35/41). Among these, there were 17 cases (48.57%) in ISUP GG 1, 8 cases (22.86%) in GG 2, 4 cases (11.43%) in GG 3, and 6 cases (17.14%) in GG 4 to 5. The results of rapid IHC of target tissue: 35 cases were negative for CK5/6 expression and 6 cases were positive. The results of routine IHC of target tissue: 35 cases were negative for CK5/6 expression and 6 cases were positive. The results of rapid IHC of non-target tissue: 12 cases were negative for CK5/6 expression and 29 cases were positive. The results of routine IHC of non-target tissue: 12 cases were negative for CK5/6 expression and 29 cases were positive. Thirty-five cases of target tissue rapid IHC diagnosis of PCa were in complete agreement with routine IHC diagnosis, with a false-positive rate of 0, a sensitivity of 100.00% (35/35) and a positive predictive value of 100.00% (35/35). Twelve cases of non-target tissue rapid IHC diagnosis of PCa were in complete agreement with routine IHC diagnosis, with a false-positive rate of 0, a sensitivity of 100.00% (35/35), and a positive predictive value of 100.00% (12/12).Conclusions:The preliminarily study results confirmed that the application of rapid IHC with CK5/6 antibodies in prostate biopsy tissues assisted frozen pathology diagnosis with high accuracy, but the reliability of rapid IHC technology in assisting frozen pathological diagnosis during puncture surgery still needs further validation through large sample size prospective studies.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and prognosis of children with chronic myeloid leukemia in the blast phase (CML-BP) .Methods:The clinical characteristics, treatment measures, and survival outcomes of 28 children with CML-BP were analyzed in our hospital from January 2008 to November 2022.Results:The male to female ratio of the 28 children with CML-BP was 1.15∶1. The median age of diagnosis of CML-BP was 10 years, and the median follow-up time was 79 months. During the diagnosis of CML, four children were in the BP, one was in the accelerated phase (AP) and 23 children were in the chronic phase (CP). Among the 23 children with CML-CP, 75% had progressed directly from CP to BP without experiencing the AP. Among the children diagnosed with CML-BP, 71.4% were classified as chronic myeloid leukemia lymphoid blast phase (CML-LBP), 25.0% belonged to the chronic myeloid leukemia myeloid blast phase (CML-MBP), and 3.6% belonged to the chronic myeloid leukemia mixed phenotype acute leukemia (CML-MPAL). Treatment with hemaopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) after tyosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) combined with chemotherapy was administered to 19 children, two children received HSCT after TKI alone, and seven children received TKI combined with chemotherapy but without HSCT. The 5-year overall survival of the 28 children with CML-BP was 59.3%.Conclusion:The direct progression of BP from CP is greater in children with CML-BP compared with adults, and the overall prognosis of children with CML-BP is poor.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.
