B[Domestic first brain-computer rehabilitation technology, hemiplegic patient successfully played "Little Star"] October 13th, October 12th, Union Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology announced a first-of-its-kind clinical result in China: the team successfully developed the first domestic brain-computer interface fine movement reconstruction system based on high-channel matrix electrical stimulation. Relying on this innovative technology, a patient with hemiplegia of the right limb due to brain glioma, after nearly two months of standardized rehabilitation training, successfully realized finger flexion and extension, fine key pressing and other movements, and was able to play simple music such as "Little Star" in a coherent manner. This system innovatively integrates non-invasive brain-computer interface and functional electrical stimulation technology to build a closed-loop neural rehabilitation pathway of "idea decoding - precise electrical stimulation - muscle contraction - action execution - sensory feedback", and expands brain-computer interface rehabilitation training to single-finger and multi-finger collaborative fine finger movement training, bringing new hope for patients with motor dysfunction related to neurological diseases to rebuild fine motor functions.

B[Jingyu Medical publishes research data on the world's first approved brain-computer interface dual-target drug addiction treatment DBS system at ISAM] October 2nd, at the 28th International Society of Addiction Medicine (ISAM) Global Conference being held recently, Ning Yihua, Chairman of Jingyu Medical, was one of the recipients. Invited representatives of Chinese companies published the long-term follow-up data of the company's brain-computer interface dual-target drug addiction treatment DBS system Neurestora®: the 6-month compliance rate (non-relapse rate) reached 80%, and the 7-year long-term stable abstinence rate reached 69%. The first batch of patients have been followed for more than 10 years. The product also demonstrates sustained and long-lasting neuroplastic remodeling - 1.5 to 2 years after DBS implantation, most patients can stop stimulation, remove the DBS device from the body, maintain long-term abstinence, and return to normal life. Ning Yihua said long-term follow-up has proven the product’s therapeutic potential for patients with severe addiction.
Note: Jingyu Medical is an enterprise in the field of brain-computer interfaces for the treatment of addiction and mental diseases. In December 2025, the company's Neurestora® was approved by the China Food and Drug Administration for marketing. It is used for relapse prevention and auxiliary treatment of patients with refractory moderate to severe opioid addiction, becoming the world's first brain-computer interface dual-target DBS system approved for the treatment of drug addiction. B[The national standard "Technical Requirements for Format Documents of Electronic Medical Records" is released, and a new plan for mutual recognition of medical data is coming] The reporter learned today that the State Administration for Market Regulation approved the release of the national standard "Technical Requirements for Format Documents of Electronic Medical Records" (OFD-H standard), which will be officially implemented from April 29, 2027.
Electronic medical records are the core of the intelligent construction of medical institutions. In 2025, the total number of diagnoses and treatments in the country will reach 10.65 billion, and a huge amount of complex electronic medical record data will be generated during the diagnosis and treatment process. There are many medical institutions with various systems and different formats of electronic medical records, which has caused problems such as difficulty in integrating information systems, difficulty in data integration and sharing, and difficulty in archiving and utilizing medical records. Standards are being developed to address these challenges.
OFD is a format document standard independently developed by China and is known as "China's PDF". Based on this, OFD-H establishes unified specifications based on the characteristics of China's electronic medical records, and upgrades medical record security protection based on domestic commercial passwords. It provides solid technical support for verifying the source of documents and preventing content tampering, which is conducive to improving the independent guarantee capabilities of key medical data and core business, and safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of both doctors and patients. After medical institutions complete the unified adaptation, they can not only access medical records from different institutions, but also verify sources and extract data, reducing duplication of system connections and providing convenience for referrals, regional medical collaboration, and Internet medical care.
At the same time, it can also integrate information such as medical records, medical images, audio and video, and structured data, and supports visual viewing (human reading) and computer reading (machine reading). It is not only convenient for doctors and patients to view, but also provides systematic multi-modal data for clinical diagnosis and treatment, scientific research, and artificial intelligence applications. Optimizing file organization and resource storage can effectively reduce medical record storage and exchange costs and provide strong support for archive utilization. B[After more than 4 months in orbit, the Shenzhou 23 crew completed many tasks including loading and unloading the load module] September 27th (Xinhua) Shenzhou 23 crew astronauts Zhu Yangzhu, Zhang Zhiyuan, and Li Jiaying have been in orbit for more than 4 months.

The extravehicular universal test equipment for components and components that went out of the cabin this time includes test units such as "hollow photonic bandgap fiber optic gyroscope", "advanced process devices" and "remote sensing target detection based on domestic AI chips", which are used to carry out experiments on new space technologies and applications. With the support and cooperation of ground personnel, the crew completed the return to the cabin of the material external exposure experimental device. Since this device was launched into orbit with the Tianzhou-5 cargo spacecraft on November 12, 2022, it has carried out 3 batches of exposure experiments totaling 16 projects, creating many international firsts. Currently, the fourth experiment is being carried out, covering 8 scientific research projects and 26 unit samples.
Last week, various space science experiments (experiments) were carried out in an orderly manner in the cabin. The crew conducted mass perception and arm vibration experimental tests of the on-orbit tactile perception experiment project to study the changing rules of astronauts' tactile perception ability during space flight. They also completed emergency decision-making ability assessment and on-orbit emotional state testing, and continued to accumulate test data. In terms of maintenance of the space station complex platform, the crew replaced components in the water and gas separation device of the regenerative life support system. In addition, the astronauts completed medical examinations such as 12-lead electrocardiograms and non-invasive cardiac function tests, and used equipment such as bone loss countermeasures and neuromuscular stimulators to combat the physiological effects of weightlessness.
