Synergizing Digital and Physical Approaches: Experience Summary of the HIV PrEP Promotion Project.

China's human immunodeficiency virus / acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) prevention and control efforts have entered a new stage, necessitating the exploration of more effective intervention strategies. HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a proven method to prevent HIV infection, but its promotion in China faces challenges such as low public acceptance and inadequate service capacity. To further promote PrEP, the "HIV PrEP Model Exploration Project" was launched, exploring three PrEP service models: PrEP clinics, Digital services and physical testing, and PrEP self-service vending machines.

Non-Completely Displaced Traumatic Rib Fractures: Potentially Less Crucial for Pulmonary Adverse Outcomes, Regardless of Classification.

: Two major classification systems exist for rib fracture (RFX) displacement. One system uses a 50% displacement threshold: Grade I (<50%), Grade II (≥50% to <100%), and Grade III (completely dislocated). Another proposes a 10% threshold: Undisplaced (<10%), Offset (≥10% to <100%), and Displaced (completely dislocated).

Non-contrast magnetic resonance imaging versus ultrasonography for hepatocellular carcinoma surveillance: A randomized, single-center trial.

Background & Aims: This study aimed to compare ultrasonography (US) and non-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the surveillance of hepatic malignancy.

Methods: We conducted a randomized, non-blinded, single-center trial at a single center in South Korea. Eligible individuals were aged 20-70 years with liver cirrhosis, Child-Pugh class A, and no history of liver cancer or other recent malignancy.

Enhanced Detection Performance of Acute Vertebral Compression Fractures Using a Hybrid Deep Learning and Traditional Quantitative Measurement Approach: Beyond the Limitations of Genant Classification.

Objective: This study evaluated the applicability of the classical method, height loss ratio (HLR), for identifying major acute compression fractures in clinical practice and compared its performance with deep learning (DL)-based VCF detection methods. Additionally, it examined whether combining the HLR with DL approaches could enhance performance, exploring the potential integration of classical and DL methodologies.

Methods: End-to-End VCF Detection (EEVD), Two-Stage VCF Detection with Segmentation and Detection (TSVD_SD), and Two-Stage VCF Detection with Detection and Classification (TSVD_DC).

Primary Cholangiocarcinoma of the Liver Presenting as a Complicated Hepatic Cyst: A Diagnostic Challenge.

Primary cholangiocarcinoma is a rare bile duct epithelial neoplasm that can present with atypical clinical manifestations, complicating its diagnosis. A 62-year-old male showed symptoms suggestive of a complicated hepatic cyst that was later identified as intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. The patient presented with abdominal discomfort without fever.
