The Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) statement aims to enhance the quality of reporting for randomized controlled trial (RCT) by providing a minimum item checklist. It was first published in 1996, and updated in 2001 and 2010, respectively. The latest version was released in April 2025, continuously reflecting new evidence, methodological advancements, and user feedback. CONSORT 2025 includes 30 essential checklist items and a template for a participant flow diagram. The main changes to the checklist include the addition of 7 items, revision of 3 items, and deletion of 1 item, as well as the integration of multiple key extensions. This article provides a comprehensive interpretation of the statement, aiming to help clinical trial staff, journal editors, and reviewers fully understand the essence of CONSORT 2025, correctly apply it in writing RCT reports and evaluating RCT quality, and provide guidance for conducting high-level RCT research in China.

OBJECTIVE To analyze clinical switching patterns and reasons between bevacizumab biosimilar and originator drugs. METHODS The data were collected from 1 175 cancer patients treated with bevacizumab at Ruijin Hospital， Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 1， 2018， to December 31， 2023. The patients were divided into originator group （n＝250） and biosimilar group （n＝925）. The switching rate， switching type and reasons of the two groups were compared. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in the switching rate， switching types， and the number of switches between the two groups （P＞0.05）. Single， one-way switches were the switching type in both groups. The proportion of patients in the biosimilar group who switched due to adverse events was significantly higher than originator group， while the proportion of patients who switched due to treatment costs was significantly lower than originator group （P＜0.05）. There were no statistically significant differences in the proportions of patients who switched due to efficacy and drug accessibility between the two groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS The switching between bevacizumab biosimilar and the originator drugs mainly involves single， one- way switches. Treatment costs and drug accessibility are the main factors for the switches among users of originator drugs， while drug accessibility and adverse events are the main factors for the switches among users of biosimilar.

Based on the latest evidence, the guidelines have been updated in multiple aspects including underlying disease management, antithrombotic medication, arrhythmia treatment and other supportive care, etc. This paper aims to summarize and interpret the guidelines, in order to promote clinicians’ understanding and optimize perioperative medical treatment in adult cardiac surgery.

INTRODUCTION: Lecanemab has shown promise in treating early Alzheimer's disease (AD), but its safety and efficacy in Chinese populations remain unexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and 6-month clinical outcomes of lecanemab in Chinese patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild AD. METHODS: In this single-arm, real-world study, participants with MCI due to AD or mild AD received biweekly intravenous lecanemab (10 mg/kg). The study was conducted at Hainan Branch, Ruijin Hospital Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. Patient enrollment and baseline assessments commenced in November 2023. Safety assessments included monitoring for amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) and other adverse events. Clinical and biomarker changes from baseline to 6 months were evaluated using cognitive scales (mini-mental state examination [MMSE], montreal cognitive assessment [MoCA], clinical dementia rating-sum of boxes [CDR-SB]), plasma biomarker analysis, and advanced neuroimaging. RESULTS: A total of 64 patients were enrolled in this ongoing real-world study. Safety analysis revealed predominantly mild adverse events, with infusion-related reactions (20.3%, 13/64) being the most common. Of these, 69.2% (9/13) occurred during the initial infusion and 84.6% (11/13) did not recur. ARIA-H (microhemorrhages/superficial siderosis) and ARIA-E (edema/effusion) were observed in 9.4% (6/64) and 3.1% (2/64) of participants, respectively, with only two symptomatic cases (one ARIA-E presenting with headache and one ARIA-H with visual disturbances). After 6 months of treatment, cognitive scores remained stable compared to baseline (MMSE: 22.33 ± 5.58 vs . 21.27 ± 4.30, P = 0.733; MoCA: 16.38 ± 6.67 vs . 15.90 ± 4.78, P = 0.785; CDR-SB: 2.30 ± 1.65 vs . 3.16 ± 1.72, P = 0.357), while significantly increasing plasma amyloid-β 42 (Aβ42) (+21.42%) and Aβ40 (+23.53%) levels compared to baseline. CONCLUSIONS: Lecanemab demonstrated a favorable safety profile in Chinese patients with early AD. Cognitive stability and biomarker changes over 6 months suggest potential efficacy, though high dropout rates and absence of a control group warrant cautious interpretation. These findings provide preliminary real-world evidence for lecanemab's use in China, supporting further investigation in larger controlled studies. REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov , NCT07034222.

First metatarsophalangeal joint arthrodesis, as a corrective measure for severe hallux valgus deformity, has a long history and remains in use today. Indications for the first metatarsophalangeal joint arthrodesis include severe hallux valgus deformity, recurrent hallux valgus, hallux deformity in rheumatoid arthritis, severe hallux rigidus, joint infection, primary or secondary osteoarthritis, hallux valgus deformity due to neuromuscular disorders, and severe gouty arthritis. Innovative research continues to emerge in biomechanics and materials science related to the first metatarsophalangeal joint arthrodesis. Surgical fixation options are diverse and evolving, encompassing traditional screws and plates alongside novel intramedullary fixation systems and shape-memory alloy implants. Biomechanical studies, gait analysis research, and clinical trials consistently demonstrate minimal postoperative impact on gait and no significant impairment of functional mobility. When performed with proper technique, complications are rare. The first metatarsophalangeal joint arthrodesis is an effective and reliable method for treating severe hallux valgus deformity.

OBJECTIVE: To compare effectiveness of multiple metatarsal osteotomy versus first metatarsophalangeal arthrodesis in treating severe metatarsal adductus hallux valgus deformity. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 25 patients with severe metatarsal adductus hallux valgus deformity admitted between June 2010 and May 2014 who met the selective criteria. Among them, 15 patients underwent multiple metatarsal osteotomy (osteotomy group), while 10 patients underwent first metatarsophalangeal arthrodesis (fusion group). There was no significant difference between groups ( P>0.05) in gender, age, disease duration, affected side, preoperative American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, visual analogue scale (VAS) score for pain, intermetatarsal angle (IMA), hallux valgus angle (HVA), or metatarsal adduction angle (MAA). The osteotomy group underwent fixation with screws and/or staples fixation, while the fusion group utilized anatomic fusion plates and trans-articular compression screws. The study compared the following outcome indicators between groups: operation time, pre- and post-operative differences (change values) in AOFAS scores, VAS scores, and radiographic parameters (HVA, MAA), osteotomy healing outcomes, and recurrence of hallux valgus deformity. RESULTS: Both surgical procedures were completed successfully. The operation time was significantly shorter in the fusion group than in the osteotomy group ( P<0.05). All patients were followed up 96-144 months (mean, 116 months). The follow-up time was (129.1±7.2) months in the osteotomy group and (104.4±8.0) months in the fusion group, with no significant difference between groups ( P>0.05). X-ray films revealed the radiographic union in two groups, and the fusion time was significantly shorter in the fusion group than in the osteotomy group ( P<0.05). At last follow-up, both groups demonstrated significant improvements in AOFAS and VAS scores compared to preoperative levels ( P<0.05). However, the differences in the change values of AOFAS and VAS scores between groups were not significant ( P>0.05). During follow-up, 3 cases (20%) of deformity recurrence occurred in the osteotomy group, while no recurrence was observed in the fusion group. There was no significant difference in the incidences of deformity recurrence between groups ( P>0.05). CONCLUSION For severe metatarsus adductus hallux valgus deformities, both multiple metatarsal osteotomy and first metatarsophalangeal arthrodesis can correct the deformity. The former preserves metatarsophalangeal joint mobility but demands high technical proficiency from the surgeon, involves relatively longer operation times, extended bone healing periods, and higher complication incidences. The latter procedure is relatively simpler, facilitates faster postoperative recovery, allows early weight-bearing, and yields more reliable outcomes, though it sacrifices first metatarsophalangeal joint mobility.

OBJECTIVE: To identify the CDYL-interacting proteins in murine testis and investigate the mechanism of CDYL involved in spermatogenesis. METHODS: CDYL-interacting partners in testis were identified using co-immunoprecipitation coupled with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Expression pattern of CDYL-interacting protein MYH9 was analyzed through immunohistochemistry (IHC), confocal immunofluorescence (IF) and Western blot (WB) in mouse testicular cells. The effect of the Cdyl conditional knockout (CdylcKO) in spermatogenic cell on Myh9 expression was quantified via RT-qPCR, WB and IF imaging in both spermatids and spermatozoa from cauda epididymides. RESULTS: Direct interaction between MYH9 and CDYL was confirmed in murine testis. During spermiogenesis, MYH9 exhibited co-localization with CDYL at the manchette structure, and binding to F-ACTIN, the component of manchette. In cauda epididymal spermatozoa, MYH9 signal concentrated on acrosomal region and continuously distributed along the tail length. Conditional deletion of Cdyl in spermatogenic cell resulted in the transcriptional downregulation of Myh9. In spermatids, CdylcKO led to reduced but retained MYH9 localization to the disorganized manchette structure. In spermatozoa from CdylcKO mice, abnormalities of MYH9 localization were observed, including attenuation of acrosomal signal and/or partial vanishment/enhancement of tail signal. CONCLUSION In murine spermatids, MYH9 protein is localized to the manchette structure, with its expression and subcellular distribution is affected by CDYL protein. CDYL-MYH9 interaction is essential for the spermiogenesis.

Ovarian cancer is the most lethal malignancy affecting the female reproductive system. Pharmacological inhibitors targeting CDK4/6 have demonstrated promising efficacy across various cancer types. However, their clinical benefits in ovarian cancer patients fall short of expectations, with only a subset of patients experiencing these advantageous effects. This study aims to provide further clinical and biological evidence for antineoplastic effects of a CDK4/6 inhibitor (TQB4616) in ovarian cancer and explore underlying mechanisms involved. Patient-derived ovarian cancer organoid models were established to evaluate the effectiveness of TQB3616. Potential key genes related to TQB3616 sensitivity were identified through RNA-seq analysis, and TRIM4 was selected as a candidate gene for further investigation. Subsequently, co-immunoprecipitation and GST pull-down assays confirmed that TRIM4 binds to hnRNPDL and promotes its ubiquitination through RING and B-box domains. RIP assay demonstrated that hnRNPDL binded to CDKN2C isoform 2 and suppressed its expression by alternative splicing. Finally, in vivo studies confirmed that the addition of siTRIM4 significantly improved the effectiveness of TQB3616. Overall, our findings suggest that TRIM4 modulates ubiquitin-mediated degradation of hnRNPDL and weakens sensitivity to CDK4/6 inhibitors in ovarian cancer treatment. TRIM4 may serve as a valuable biomarker for predicting sensitivity to CDK4/6 inhibitors in ovarian cancer.

This study aimed to comprehensively examine the association of gallstones, cholecystectomy, and cancer risk. Multivariable logistic regressions were performed to estimate the observational associations of gallstones and cholecystectomy with cancer risk, using data from a nationwide cohort involving 239 799 participants. General and gender-specific two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was further conducted to assess the causalities of the observed associations. Observationally, a history of gallstones without cholecystectomy was associated with a high risk of stomach cancer (adjusted odds ratio (aOR)=2.54, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.50-4.28), liver and bile duct cancer (aOR=2.46, 95% CI 1.17-5.16), kidney cancer (aOR=2.04, 95% CI 1.05-3.94), and bladder cancer (aOR=2.23, 95% CI 1.01-5.13) in the general population, as well as cervical cancer (aOR=1.69, 95% CI 1.12-2.56) in women. Moreover, cholecystectomy was associated with high odds of stomach cancer (aOR=2.41, 95% CI 1.29-4.49), colorectal cancer (aOR=1.83, 95% CI 1.18-2.85), and cancer of liver and bile duct (aOR=2.58, 95% CI 1.11-6.02). MR analysis only supported the causal effect of gallstones on stomach, liver and bile duct, kidney, and bladder cancer. This study added evidence to the causal effect of gallstones on stomach, liver and bile duct, kidney, and bladder cancer, highlighting the importance of cancer screening in individuals with gallstones.
