ObjectiveTo assess the microstructural involvement of gray matter in recovered COVID-19 patients using Synthetic MRI. MethodsThis study was conducted in 29 recovered COVID-19 patients， including severe group （SG， n=11） and ordinary group （OG， n=18）. Healthy volunteers matched by age， sex， BMI and years of education were selected as a healthy control group （HC=23 cases）. Each subject underwent synthetic MRI to generate quantitative T₁ and T₂ maps， and the T₁ and T₂ maps were segmented into 90 regions of interest （ROIs） using automatic anatomical labeling （AAL） mapping. T₁ and T₂ values for each ROI were obtained by averaging all voxels within the ROIs. The T₁ and T₂ values of the 90 brain regions between the three groups were compared. ResultsRelative to HC， the SG had significantly higher T2 values in bilateral orbital superior frontal gyrus， bilateral parahippocampal gyrus， bilateral putamen， bilateral middle temporal gyrus， bilateral Inferior temporal gyrus， left orbital superior frontal gyrus， left orbital inferior frontal gyrus， left gyrus rectus， left anterior cingulate and paracingulate gyri， right median cingulate and paracingulate gyri， left posterior cingulate gyrus， and left supramarginal gyrus （P＜0.05）； Relative to OG， SG showed significantly increased T₂ values in the left rectus gyrus， left parahippocampal gyrus， bilateral middle temporal gyrus， and bilateral inferior temporal gyrus （P＜0.05）. Relative to HC， the T₁ values of SG were significantly increased in bilateral orbital superior frontal gyrus， left rectus gyrus， left anterior cingulate and paracingulate gyri， right posterior cingulate gyrus， left parahippocampal gyrus， left lingual gyrus， left putamen， left thalamus（P＜0.05）； Relative to OG， the T₁ values of SG were significantly higher in the right posterior cingulate gyrus， right calcarine fissure and surrounding cortex， and left putamen （P＜0.05）. ConclusionsEven after recovering from COVID-19， patients may still have persistent or delayed damage to their brain gray matter structure， which is correlated with the severity of the condition. SyMRI can serve as a sensitive tool to assess the extent of microstructural damage to the central nervous system， aiding in early diagnosis of the disease.

To analyze the disease group structure and its trends in key departments of large public hospitals using diagnosis related group (DRG) data, explore the key points of intervention and optimization of disease groups in departments, and further promote the rational allocation of department resources.

In July 2024, the National Healthcare Security Administration issued "Notice on Printing and Distributing the 2.0 Edition Grouping Scheme for Diagnosis Related Group(DRG) and Disease-based Payment and Further Advancing Related Work, " marking the official entry of China's DRG payment reform into the 2.0 era. In the 2.0 edition of the DRG grouping scheme, the number of DRGs has increased by six groups, and that of the adjacent DRGs has increased by 33 groups, featuring more scientific and reasonable grouping that aligns better with clinical practice. The National Healthcare Security Administration has also clarified five supporting management mechanisms, including the special case negotiation mechanism, the fund prepayment mechanism, the negotiation and consultation mechanism, the feedback mechanism for opinion collection, and the data disclosure mechanism. These are aimed at optimizing the management of DRG payment reform to ensure a win-win situation for medical institutions, healthcare security departments, and patients. The release of the DRG 2.0 edition provides medical institutions with more refined management tools and a more reasonable paymentmechanism. Medical institutions need to actively embrace this reform, optimize internal management, and improve service quality to achieve cost control and efficiency enhancement, ultimately leading to a win-win situation for patients, healthcare security funds, and medical institutions.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of prone position ventilation(PPV)in improving hypoxemia in patients with severe brain damage.Methods A retrospective research method was conducted,140 patients with severe brain damage who were admitted to the department of critical care medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital,Zhejiang University School of Medicine from August 2020 to August 2021 were selected as subject objected.According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,20 patients with oxygenation index≤200 mmHg(1 mmHg≈0.133 kPa)who were treated with PPV were statistically analyzed.The patients'blood gas analysis related indicators[including arterial partial pressure of oxygen(PaO2),fractional of inspired oxygen(FiO2),oxygenation index,arterial oxygen saturation(SaO2),arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PaCO2),pH value],ventilator-related parameters[including peak inspiratory pressure(PIP),positive end-expiratory pressure(PEEP),tidal volume(VT),lung dynamic compliance(Cdyn),etc.],and mean arterial pressure(MAP),heart rate(HR)were compared before PPV,12 hours after PPV,and 12 hours after reverting to supine position.At the same time,the related complications of patients during PPV were recorded.Results There were 15 males and 5 females,the mean age of the patients was(46.10±17.22)years old,the average PPV time was(22.20±5.94)hours.Compared with before PPV,patients showed significant increases in PaO2,oxygenation index,SaO2,VT,and Cdyn at 12 hours after PPV and 12 hours after recovery from supine position[PaO2(mmHg):98.35±21.85,98.45±17.90 vs.72.15±10.14,oxygenation index(mmHg):198.82±40.51,202.27±46.39 vs.133.20±33.95,SaO2:0.97±0.02,0.97±0.01 vs.0.94±0.03,VT(mL):558.42±111.23,580.29±119.44 vs.484.82±123.77,Cdyn(mL/cmH2O):26.11±5.42,27.90±5.80 vs.24.15±6.13,all P<0.05];Compared with 12 hours after PPV,the Cdyn of the patient still showed a significant increase after 12 hours of recovery from supine position(P<0.05).There were no statistical differences in the FiO2,PaCO2,pH value,PIP,PEEP,HR,and MAP of patients at various time points before and after PPV(all P>0.05).Five patients developed redness and swelling at the skin compression site mainly on the face after PPV,which gradually improved after returning to a supine position.During this period,there was no occurrence of catheter detachment,malignant arrhythmia,or significant hemodynamic instability.Conclusion PPV has a certain clinical effect on improving hypoxemia in patients with severe brain damage.

Objective To summarize the imaging findings of intracranial central nervous system(CNS)malformations children in the high-altitude plateau(Xigaze city).Methods We retrospectively reviewed the imaging data of the suspected patients having CNS malformations,which enrolled either by the clinic or by the ultrasound in the Shigatse People's hospital from June,2019 to June,2023.All imaging data were interpreted by two experienced radiologists with consensus reading.Imaging characteristics were recorded roughly by primary/secondary,supra-/subtentorial malformation type and the corresponding clinical symptoms.Results A total of 36 children were included in this study,including 19 patients≤1 year old(including 2 newborns),7 patients between 1 and 3 years old,and 10 patients>3 years old.Seven cases underwent MRI examination,others having CT scan.Polygyria and pachygyria malformation were the most common type of congenital neurological malformations(7 cases,31.8%),followed by cystic changes of the cerebral parenchyma(3 cases,13.6%).Cerebral atrophy was the most common type of secondary CNS abnormalities group(8 cases,57.1%),followed by communicative hydrocephalus(3 cases,21.4%).Five patients in the congenital group and 4 patients in the secondary CNS group had the complex malformations.There were 8 dead cases(all in the≤1-year-old group),12 cases having neurological sequelae,1 case with normal development and 15 cases with loss of follow-up.There were no significant differences between primary and secondary CNS group regarding the final outcome.Conclusion In this study,gyrus developmental malformation and encephalatrophy were the most common etiologies in infants'CNS malformations.Reasonable use of imaging modalities will help depict the complicated CNS malformations and design individual treatment.

Objective:To investigate the status quo and influencing factors of the somatization of depressive emotions among college students, in order to provide a theoretical basis for the reform of mental health education and the formulation of operable mental health counseling for college students.Methods:Totally 297 college students from two institutions of higher education in Heilongjiang Province were selected by convenience sampling and investigated with the College Student Depressive Emotion Somatization Questionnaire, Attitudes Toward Seeking Professional Psychological Help Scale-Short Form (ATSPPH-SF), and the Type D Personality Scale (DS14) .Results:The total score for the College Student Depressive Emotion Somatization Questionnaire among the 297 students was (28.49±8.07), and the total score for the ATSPPH-SF was (21.98±2.73). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the influencing factors for the somatization of depressive emotions in college students were professional psychological help-seeking attitudes and whether they had a Type D personality ( P < 0.05) . Conclusions:During university education, there should be a focus on students' personality traits and the positivity of their attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help in order to mitigate the occurrence of adverse psychological issues such as symptoms of depressive somatization.

Objective To investigate the correlations of serum cyclic adenosine monophosphate-responsive element binding protein regulator of transcription coactivator 3 (CRTC3) and oxidative stress indicators with carotid atherosclerosis in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods A total of 154 CHD patients in the hospital from June 2021 to June 2023 were selected as study group and divided into mild, moderate, and severe atherosclerosis groups based on the degree of carotid atherosclerosis; another 154 healthy individuals with physical examinations in the same period were selected as control group. Pearson method was used to analyze the correlations of serum CRTC3 and oxidative stress indicators with carotid atherosclerosis indicators. Results Serum CRTC3 and malondialdehyde (MDA), carotid plaque area and intima-media thickness (IMT) in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group, while the levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). In the mild, moderate and severe atherosclerosis groups, serum CRTC3 and MDA levels, carotid plaque area, and IMT significantly gradually increased, while SOD and GSH-Px levels significantly gradually decreased (P < 0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum CRTC3 and MDA levels were positively correlated with carotid plaque area and IMT (P < 0.05), while SOD and GSH-Px were negatively correlated with carotid plaque area and IMT (P < 0.05). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) for the combined diagnosis of severe carotid atherosclerosis by CRTC3, SOD, MDA and GSH-Px was 0.990 (95%CI, 0.982 to 0.998), with a sensitivity of 96.27% and a specificity of 76.28%. The diagnostic value of the combined application of these four indicators was significantly higher than that of each indicator alone (Z_{combined-CRTC3}=2.723, Z_combined-SOD=2.698, Z_combined-MDA=2.673, Z_{combined-GSH-Px}=2.803, P < 0.05). Conclusion The serum levels of CRTC3 and MDA are significantly increased while SOD and GSH-Px levels are significantly decreased in CHD patients. Both serum CRTC3 and oxidative stress levels are closely related to carotid atherosclerosis.

Objective To compare the diagnostic performance of PI-RADS v2.1 and PI-RADS v2 in the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer(csPCa) by Meta-analysis. Methods The major biomedical databases were searched (CNKI, CBM, Medline, and Embase) with the keywords "PIRADS v2.1" or "PI-RADS v2.1". The Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies Tool v2 (QUADAS-2) was used to evaluate literature quality. Meta-analysis was performed using STATA17.0 and ReMan5.4 software. Forest plots were used to represent the sensitivity and specificity of PI-RADS v2.1 and PI-RADS v2 for each study. Sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio, negative likelihood ratio, and diagnostic odds ratio were combined, and diagnostic performance was evaluated using asummary receiver operating characteristic curve (SROC). Subgroup analysis was performed on three covariables: tumor location, threshold, and the nationality of authors. Results A total of 12 studies were included, involving 3 158 patients and 3 243 lesions. Forall zones and the whole gland, PI-RADS v2.1 had a larger area under the SROC curve (AUC) for csPCa performance, compared with PI-RADS v2. Subgroup analysis: PI-RADS v2.1 also had a larger area under the SROC (AUC) to detect transitional zone csPCa. Different diagnostic thresholds: when a score of 4 was used for the threshold, PI-RADS v2.1 had the maximum area under SROC (AUC) for csPCa performance detection. Author nationality: Researches of PI-RADS v2.1 in Chinese authors had the largest area under the SROC (AUC) in detecting csPCa performance. Conclusion Compared with PI-RADS v2, the diagnostic performance of PI-RADS v2.1 in detecting csPCa is not obviously improved and overall specificity is still low.

Objective:To observe the curative effects and complications of open reduction and fixation with cannulated screws and an augmented plate for Pauwels type Ⅲ femoral neck fractures.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the data of 8 patients with fresh Pauwels Ⅲ femoral neck fracture who had been treated from January 2015 to October 2018 at Department of Trauma and Orthopaedics, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. There were 7 males and 1 female with an age of (47.7±14.0) years. The Pauwels angle ranged from 50° to 70° in 6 cases and was >70° in 2 cases. As the original closed reduction was not ideal in all the patients, open reduction via the modified Smith-Petersen approach and fixation with cannulated screws and an augmented plate were performed. Fracture healing, Harris hip score, and complications were followed up at 1 month, 6 months, 1 year, and 3 years postoperatively.Results:At 1 month after operation: 8 patients were followed up, their Harris hip score was (38.4±3.6) points, and there were 7 cases of femoral neck shortening and 1 case of incision fat liquefaction. At 6 months after operation: 7 patients were followed up, their Harris hip score was (70.6±2.8) points, and 1 patient healed anatomically, 4 patients healed with shortening, and 2 patients healed with delay and shortening. Femoral neck shortening, withdrawal of cannulated screws, and screw loosening within the augmented plate were all increased compared with 1 month after operation. At 1 year after operation: 7 patients were followed up, their Harris hip score was (85.5±4.4) points, there were no significant changes in fracture healing or complications compared with 6 months after operation. At 3 years after operation: the patient lost to prior follow-up died of heart disease 34 months after operation, 1 patient had to undergo total hip arthroplasty due to fracture nonunion and cutout of cannulated screws at 16 months after operation, and the other 6 patients had a Harris hip score of (93.6±2.5) points. Of the 6 patients, femoral neck fracture healed in 5 (shortening healing in 4, including 1 case complicated with femoral head necrosis, and anatomical healing in 1) but did not in one.Conclusions:In the treatment of Pauwels type Ⅲ femoral neck fractures, open reduction and fixation with cannulated screws and an augmented plate does not lead to ideal curative effects. The main complication is shortening of the femoral neck. The auxiliary role of augmented plate fixation is not obvious.

Objective:To explore the status and influencing factors of participation in cardiac rehabilitation of cardiovascular nurses.Methods:This is a cross-sectional study. From January to February 2022, a total of 3 047 cardiovascular nurses in members of China Cardiovascular Health Alliance were selected as research objects by convenience sampling method. General data questionnaire and Cardiovascular Nurses Participated in the Cardiac Rehabilitation Questionnaire (CNPCRQ) were used to investigate cardiovascular nurses. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors of participation in cardiac rehabilitation of cardiovascular nurses. A total of 3 047 questionnaires were distributed in this study, and 2 704 valid questionnaires were effectively received, with an effective recovery rate of 88.74%.Results:The total score of CNPCRQ of cardiovascular nurses was (93.23±31.58), which was at a moderate level. Multiple linear regression analysis results showed that age, education, professional title, hospital location, hospital level, position type and hospital type were the influencing factors of participation in cardiac rehabilitation of cardiovascular nurses.Conclusions:The status of participation in cardiac rehabilitation of cardiovascular nurses in China needs to be improved. Role and job content of cardiovascular nurses should be further clarified, and cardiac rehabilitation knowledge and skills training should be strengthened in the future, so as to promote the profession development of cardiac rehabilitation and improve patients' health outcomes.
