Cryoablation therapy with explicit anti-tumor mechanisms and histopathological manifestations has a long history.A large number of clinical practice has shown that cryoablation therapy is safe and effective,making it an ideal tumor treatment method in theory.Previously,its efficacy and clinical application were constrained by the limitations of refrigerants and refrigeration equipment.With the development of the new generation of cryoablation equipment represented by argon helium knives,significant progress has been made in refrigeration efficien-cy,ablation range,and precise temperature measurement,greatly promoting the progression of tumor cryoablation technology.This consensus systematically summarizes the mechanism of cryoablation technology,indications for oral mucosal melanoma(OMM)cryotherapy,clinical treatment process,adverse reactions and management,cryotherapy combination therapy,etc.,aiming to provide reference for carrying out the standardized cryoablation therapy of OMM.

Objective To explore the effects of dexmedetomidine combined with desflurane anesthesia on cerebral oxygen metabolism,sedation depth and cerebral function in liver cancer patients undergoing partial hepatic lobectomy.Methods A total of 30 liver cancer patients undergoing partial hepatic lobectomy at the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University from March to September 2022 were selected as the research subjects,they were divided into control group(n=15)and observation group(n=15)according to different anesthesia methods.Patients in both groups underwent partial open hepatectomy,and they were given the same anesthesia induction method.The patients in the control group received desflurane for anesthesia mainte-nance,while patients in the observation group received dexmedetomidine combined with desflurane for anesthesia maintenance.The anesthesia recovery indexes including the postoperative recovery time,recovery time of spontaneous breathing,eye-opening time of patients between the two groups were compared.The arterial oxygen saturation(SaO2),cervical vein oxygen saturation(SjvO2),arterial partial pressure of oxygen(PaO2)and partial pressure of venous oxygen of patients were detected by blood gas analyzer before anesthesia induction(T0),at the completion of anesthesia induction(T,),at 10 minutes after hepatic portal occlusion(T2),after hepatic lobectomy(T3)and after surgery(T4),and arterio-venous oxygen content difference(AVDO2)and cerebral oxygen extraction rate(CEO2)were calculated.The sedation depth of patients was evaluated by bispectral index(BIS)and patient state index(PSI)at T0,T1,T2,T3 and T4.The cerebral function of patients was evaluated by the Glasgow-Pittsburgh cerebral performance category scale at 3 months after surgery.The incidence of postoperative adverse reactions of patients between the two groups was compared.Results The postoperative recovery time,recovery time of sponta-neous breathing and eye-opening time of patients in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in SaO2 of patients between the two groups at different time points(P＞0.05).At T2 and T3,SjvO2,AVDO2 and CEO2 of patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference in SjvO2,AVDO2 and CEO2 of patients between the two groups at the other time points(P＞0.05).At T2,T3 and T4,BIS and PSI of patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference in BIS and PSI of patients between the two groups at T0 and T1(P＞0.05).In the control group,there were 11 patients with postoperative brain function in grade 1,3 patients in grade Ⅱ and 1 patient in grade Ⅲ;in the observation group,there were 12 patients in grade Ⅰ and 3 patients in gradeⅡ.There was no significant difference in postoperative grading of brain function between the two groups(x2=1.044,P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the total incidence of postoperative adverse reactions between the control group and observation group[20.00％(3/15)vs 26.67％(4/15),x2=0.186,P＞0.05].Conclusion Dexmedetomidine combined with desflurane anesthesia can shorten anesthesia recovery time,improve anesthesia depth and reduce cerebral oxygen metabolism in patients undergoing liver cancer surgery,which has no effect on cerebral function,showing good safety.

Objective:To analyze the predictive value of von Willebrand factor (vWF) for venous thromboembolism (VTE) of patients in intensive care unit (ICU) by using propensity score matching (PSM).Methods:Patients admitted to ICU of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from December 2020 to June 2022 who stayed in ICU for ≥72 hours and underwent daily bedside vascular ultrasound screening were included. Baseline data such as age, gender, primary disease, and chronic comorbidities were collected. Coagulation indexes before admission to ICU and 24 hours and 48 hours after ICU admission were collected, including prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT), international normalized ratio (INR), fibrinogen (Fib), fibrin monomer (FM), vWF, D-dimer, antithrombin Ⅲ (ATⅢ), etc. Patients were divided into VTE group and non-VTE group according to whether they had VTE or not [diagnosis of VTE: patients underwent daily ultrasound screening of bedside blood vessels (both upper and lower limbs, visceral veins), and those suspected of having thrombosis were confirmed by ultrasonographer or pulmonary angiography]. Using PSM analysis method, the VTE group was used as the benchmark to conduct 1 : 1 matching of age, whether there was malignant tumor, whether there was infection, whether there was diabetes, and coagulation indicators before admission to ICU. Finally, the cases with balanced covariates between the two groups were obtained. The risk factors of VTE were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression analysis. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of vWF in the occurrence of VTE in critically ill patients.Results:A total of 120 patients were enrolled, of which 18 (15.0%) were diagnosed with VTE within 72 hours after admission to ICU, and 102 (85.0%) were not found to have thrombus in ICU. Before PSM, there were significant differences in age, gender, proportion of malignant tumor and infection, and coagulation indexes between VTE group and non-VTE group. After PSM, 14 pairs were successfully matched, and the unbalanced covariables between the two groups reached equilibrium. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that vWF was an independent risk factor for VTE at 48 hours after ICU admission in critically ill patients [odds ratio ( OR) = 1.165, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.000-1.025, P = 0.004]. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of vWF at 48 hours after ICU admission for predicting VTE was 0.782, 95% CI was 0.618-0.945, P = 0.007. When the optimal cut-off value was 312.12%, the sensitivity was 67.7% and the specificity was 93.0%. Conclusion:Dynamic monitoring of vWF is helpful to predict the occurrence of VTE in ICU patients, and vWF at 48 hours after ICU admission has certain value in predicting the occurrence of VTE.

Objective: To explore the cross sectional and longitudinal relationships between children s 24 h movement behaviors and health related quality of life (HRQoL), and to reflect the impact of reallocating time between different activities on HRQoL scores using the isotemporal substitution analysis method, so as to provide a scientific basis for promoting children s health. Methods: In May 2022, a method combining cluster random sampling and convenience sampling was employed to conduct baseline survey on 397 children aged 7-10 from three primary schools in Wanzhou District of Chongqing. Children s movement behaviors were monitored using accelerometers, and their HRQoL was assessed through a health related quality of life questionnaire for children.The same questionnaire was used for assessing HRQoL of children on the follow up survery after on year(May 2023). A component based multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the relationship between children s 24 h movement behaviors and HRQoL. Results: The average daily times for children s light physical activity (LPA), moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), sleep (SP), and sedentary behavior (SB) were (331.5±41.7，61.9±28.6，561.7±78.4，484.9±67.3) min, respectively. The mean baseline HRQoL score was (69.5±6.6), and it was (67.6±5.1) after one year. MVPA and SP were positively correlated with HRQoL at baseline( β =0.59,0.38) and after one year ( β =0.48, 0.39), while SB was negatively correlated with HRQoL at baseline and after one year ( β =-0.25, -0.53) ( P <0.05). An isotemporal substitution analysis showed that replacing 30 minutes of LPA or SB with MVPA increased the HRQoL scores by 1.81 and 2.79 at baseline, and by 1.37 and 2.12 after one year. Additionally, replacing SB with SP increased the HRQoL scores by 0.61 at baseline and by 0.39 after one year ( P <0.05). Conclusions Children s 24 h movement behaviors, particularly physical activity (PA) and sleep, are closely related to children s HRQoL. Appropriate measures should be taken to increase children s PA and SP time and reduce SB time to improve children s HRQoL.

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.

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.

Objective:To explore the driving mechanism contributing to doctors′ turnover intention in public hospitals based on the grounded theory.Methods:" Willingness or intention for doctors to quit public hospitals" was used as the theme word, and the literature was retrieved from CNKI published from January 1, 2017 to January 1, 2022. Based on the grounded theory, NVivo 11.0 software was used for a qualitative analysis of the literature. The three-level coding method of open coding, axial coding and selective coding was used to identify the main categories affecting the willingness of doctors to quit public hospitals. On this basis, the driving mechanism model was integrated. In-depth interviews with hospital managers were used to test the theoretical saturation.Results:When 31 papers were coded, four level-1 influencing factors of the formation of doctors′ turnover intention in public hospitals were summarized: career selection deviation, practice reality, perceived experience and external opportunity. Among them, perceived experience was the direct driving factor; career selection deviation was the initial driving factor, and the practice reality was the key driving factor, both of them affected the perceived experience; external opportunity was the possible driving factor.Conclusions:In order to prevent doctors from willing to leave, the following measures are expected: the hospital management should improve both its recruitment evaluation indexes and recruitment effectiveness; pay attention to doctors′ psychological capital management and cultivate positive perception; promote the reform of performance pay, emphasize fairness and value; pay attention to employee relationship management and build a supportive hospital culture.

Intestinal organoids, also named "mini-guts", reconstitute sophisticated three-dimensional architecture recapitulating diversified intestinal epithelial cell types and physiology, which is driven by the proliferative and self-assembling characteristics of crypt stem cells. The initiation of organoids study relies on the identification of Lgr5+ crypt stem cells from different intestinal segments and the key role of EGF, Wnt, BMP/TGF-β, Notch signal pathways within the microenvironment during the cultivation process. Besides constituting polarized crypt-villus structures, these "mini-guts" exhibit various effective functions of intestinal epithelium. Since 2009 when the culture system of small intestinal organoids was established by Sato et al, intestinal organoids excel conventional intestinal models depending on genetical mutation in multiple aspects and thus have become the hotspot among the research on intestinal diseases. Combined with genomics, material science and engineering, "mini-guts" have been widely applied to the research on intestinal development, intestinal transport physiology, epithelial barrier, pathogen-host interaction and the study on cystic fibrosis, infectious diarrhea, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, intestinal cancer, etc. In this review, we summarize the new insights introduced by organoid into the research on intestinal diseases, and related research advances and applications.

: Objective: To investigate the efficacy of fistula stent made by 3D printing technique in the treatment of enteroatmospheric fistula. Methods: A descriptive case series study was carried out. INCLUSION CRITERIA: (1) patients with open abdomen; (2) patients with enteroatmospheric fistula. EXCLUSION CRITERIA: (1) patient with two or more fistulas; (2) distal obstruction; (3) bowel stenosis over 50%. According to above criteria, 17 EAF patients admitted to the General Surgery Department of Jinling Hospital from June 2019 to January 2020 were retrospectively included in study. Based on the intestinal radiography, CT reconstruction and finger exploration, the size of fistula, the diameter of the intestinal tube and the angle of the intestinal lumen around the fistula were assessed. The 3D printing fistula stent was designed and established based on estimated data, and then placed through the fistula. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS (1) success rate of stent implantation; (2) outflow of intestinal contents after implantation; (3) tolerated exercise time; (4) receiving definite operation time for intestinal fistula; (5) time to recovery of enteral nutrition. The t-test was used to compare the outflow amount of intestinal content before and after the stent implantation and the tolerated exercise time. The changes of the outflow amount of intestinal content and tolerated exercise time were analyzed by repeated measurement ANOVA. Results: Seventeen EAF patients with open abdomen included 13 males and 4 females. All the patients successfully received intestinal fistula stent implantation. Gastrointestinal angiography 2 days after implantation showed that the digestive tract was unobstructed, and the stent was successfully kept in place until definite surgery. No stent implantation-related adverse reactions were found in patients undergoing definite intestinal fistula surgery. The average outflow amount of intestinal fluid within 7 days after implantation decreased from (702.7±198.9) ml/d to on the first day after implantation (45.8±22.4) ml/d on the 7th day(F=10.380, P<0.001). The ambulatory time and exercise time of patients continued to increase after stent implantation. The average tolerated exercise time within 14 days after stent implantation increased from (9.1±3.8) min/d to (106.9±21.8) min/d (F=41.727, P<0.001). Within 120 days after stent implantation, 15 patients successfully underwent definite surgery for intestinal fistula and reconstruction of abdominal wall. Patients needed a median (IQR) of 3 (2, 5) days to recover enteral nutrition. The average time from stent placement to surgery was (87.2±17.6) days. Two patients died of severe abdominal infection with multiple organ failure. Conclusion: 3D printing fistula stent can significantly and the outflow of intestinal contents and the difficulty of nursing, and help to restore enteral nutrition and rehabilitation exercise as soon as possible in EAF patients with open abdomen.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the femoral and tibial tunnel positions of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using the modified transtibial (MTT) technique and anteromedial (AM) portal technique. METHODS: Between January 2017 and September 2020, 78 patients with anterior cruciate ligament rupture underwent single-bundle reconstruction with the modified transtibial technique in 39 cases (group MTT) and through anteromedial approach in 39 cases (group AM). There were 25 males and 14 females in group MTT, with an average age of (37.0±2.3) years old; 27 males and 12 females in group AM, with an average age of (37.5±2.2) years old. CT scan of the affected knee was conducted one week after the surgery to measure and compare the femoral tunnels positioning (Fx, Fy), tibial tunnels positioning in the frontal plane(Tx1), tibial tunnels positioning in the sagittal plane (Ty1), and tibial tunnels positioning in the axial plane (Tx2, Ty2) in patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction through Mimics software. RESULTS: Three-dimensional CT reconstruction after the surgery showed that the average Fx and Fy were(25.2±2.1)% and (34.9±3.0)% respectively and the Tx1 and Ty1 were (45.5±3.3)% and (44.7± 3.0)% respectively, while the Tx2 and Ty2 were (47.0±3.0)% and (39.9±4.2)% respectively in group MTT. In group AM, the average Fx and Fy were (26.0±2.0)% and (36.1±3.9)% respectively and the Tx1 and Ty1 were (46.5±3.1)% and (45.6± 3.1)% respectively, while the Tx2 and Ty2 were (47.4±2.5)% and (39.6±3.9)% respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in the femoral and tibial tunnels between the two groups ( CONCLUSION Both the MTT and AM technique can achieve good anatomical positioning of the femoral and tibial tunnels, without significant differences in the positioning of the bone tunnels.
