Objective:A camelid natural nanobody library was screened to target S100 calcium-binding protein B (S100B) for obtaining high-affinity and specific nanobodies (Nbs), which provided a molecular basis for the early diagnosis and prognostic treatment of malignant melanoma.Methods:In this study, affinity panning was employed to isolate S100B-specific nanobodies with unique complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3) sequences from a camelid natural nanobody library. The selected Nbs were expressed in a prokaryotic system and purified via Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. The affinity, specificity, and diagnostic potential of the Nbs were evaluated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), western blot, and bio-layer interferometry (BLI).Results:A camelid natural anti-S100B nanobody library with a capacity of 1.91×10 8 CFU was successfully constructed. Affinity panning yielded 30 S100B-specific Nbs, among which Nb107, Nb122, Nb212, and Nb324 with distinct CDR3 sequences were selected for expression. Following Ni-NTA purification, all four anti-S100B Nbs exhibited high purity. Western blot analysis confirmed their ability to recognize recombinant S100B. ELISA and BLI analyses revealed that Nb212 demonstrated high affinity (1.96×10 -11 mol). Additionally, Nb107, Nb122, and Nb212 exhibited broad-spectrum recognition capabilities, binding to various tumor cell lines (Hepa1-6, GL261, 4T1, CT26) as well as murine/human melanoma cells. These Nbs also effectively bound to native murine/human antigens in serum samples from melanoma (A375, B16F10) mouse models. Conclusions:Specific anti-S100B Nbs are successfully screened and expressed, demonstrating not only recognition of native conformational antigens but also broad-spectrum binding and high affinity. These findings highlight their significant potential for developing early diagnostic assays and broad-spectrum targeted vaccines or therapeutics against diverse tumor cells.

Objective To investigate the association between the TyG index,its modified variants,and the risk of developing colorectal cancer(CRC).Methods This study included a total of 93,177 participants from the 2006 Kailuan Group health examination cohort.Participants were categorized into four quartiles(Q1-Q4)according to their TyG and modified TyG indices.Follow-up began at the baseline examination,with incident CRC as the primary outcome.Participants were censored at the time of CRC diagnosis,death,or the end of the study,whichever occurred first.The dose-response relationship between TyG and its modified indices and the risk of CRC was evalu-ated using restricted cubic splines(RCS)in conjunction with Cox proportional hazards regression models,yielding hazard ratios(HRs)and 95%confidence intervals(CIs).To compare the strength of associations between TyG and its modified versions(TyG-BMI,TyG-WC,TyG-WHR,TyG-WHtR,TyG-WWI)and CRC risk,HRs for CRC per one standard deviation increase in each index were calculated and compared.Results Both the TyG index and its modified variants demonstrated a significant dose-response relationship with the risk of CRC incidence.Specifically,for the TyG index,each 1-standard deviation(SD)increase was associated with a 1.17-fold(95%CI:1.09～1.27)higher risk of CRC.Compared with the first quartile(Q1),the third quartile(Q3)and fourth quartile(Q4)exhibited a 1.25-fold(95%CI:1.01～1.55)and 1.26-fold(95%CI:1.01～1.57)increased risk,respectively.For TyG-BMI,each 1-SD increase was linked to a 1.20-fold(95%CI:1.07～1.35)elevated CRC risk.Compared with Q1,Q3 and Q4 showed a 1.32-fold(95%CI:1.06～1.64)and 1.51-fold(95%CI:1.21～1.88)increase,respectively.Regarding TyG-WC,each 1-SD increment was associated with a 1.22-fold(95%CI:1.13～1.32)higher CRC risk,with Q3 and Q4 showing a 1.35-fold(95%CI:1.08～1.70)and 1.56-fold(95%CI:1.24～1.96)increased risk compared to Q1.For TyG-WHtR,each 1-SD increase was associated with a 1.24-fold(95%CI:1.08-1.42)higher CRC risk.Compared with Q1,Q2,Q3,and Q4 demonstrated a 1.31-fold(95%CI:1.03～1.66),1.55-fold(95%CI:1.23～1.95),and 1.60-fold(95%CI:1.27～2.02)increase,respectively.In the case of TyG-WHR,each 1-SD increase was associated with a 1.19-fold(95%CI:1.10～1.29)higher CRC risk,with Q4 showing a 1.42-fold(95%CI:1.14～1.77)increased risk compared to Q1.Finally,for TyG-WWI,each 1-SD increase was associated with a 1.22-fold(95%CI:1.13～1.32)elevated CRC risk,with both Q3 and Q4 showing a 1.58-fold increase(Q3:95%CI:1.26～1.98;Q4:95%CI:1.25～1.99).Stratified analyses by sex and age consistently revealed significant associations between the TyG index and its modified variants and CRC risk.Furthermore,these indices were independently associated with the incidence of both colon cancer and rectal cancer.Conclusions(1)Elevated levels of the TyG index and its modified variants are independent risk factors for CRC.(2)Both the TyG index and its modified forms demonstrate a significant dose-response association with the incidence of CRC.(3)Among the modified TyG indices,TyG-WWI,TyG-WHtR,TyG-BMI,TyG-WC,and TyG-WHR showed stronger correlations with CRC risk compared to the original TyG index.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Objective To evaluate the sensitivity of swept-source optical coherence tomography(SS-OCT)in detecting early deminer-alization at the resin-enamel bonding interface,and the differences in enamel demineralization around restorations among different resins(Filtek Z350 XT,Filtek Bulk Fill,TetricN-Ceram Bulk Fill).Methods Twenty-seven extracted third molars were selected and prepared into 5-mm-thick specimens,and Class Ⅰ cavities measuring 3 mm × 3 mm × 4 mm were created on the occlusal surfaces.The specimens were randomly divided into three groups,with nine teeth in each group,and were respectively filled with Filtek Z350 XT(layered filling of 4 mm),Filtek Bulk Fill(bulk filling of 4 mm in one step),and Tetric N-Ceram Bulk Fill(bulk filling of 4 mm in one step).After applying acid-resistant nail varnish to non-experimental areas,the specimens were placed in a demineralizing solution for 4 weeks.SS-OCT and Micro-CT scans of the resin-enamel bonding interface were performed before demineralization and weekly thereafter to monitor the progression of demineralization and changes in demineralization depth were quantitatively analyzed.Results Both SS-OCT and Micro-CT were capable of non-destructive dynamic monitoring of demineralization at the resin-enamel bonding inter-face.After demineralization,four types of patterns were observed at the resin-enamel bonding interface.At different stages of demineral-ization,no significant differences in demineralization depth were detected among the three resins using either SS-OCT or Micro-CT.There was a high level of agreement between the demineralization depth measurements obtained from SS-OCT and Micro-CT at each demineralization stage(ICC:0.760-0.897).Conclusion The early demineralization of resin-enamelbonding interface can be noninva-sively detected by SS-OCT,and there was no significant differenceamong three resins in their ability to resist enamel demineralization around the restoration.

Recently, there has been an increasing risk of importation of tropical diseases into China and the resultant re-transmission in the country with the in-depth implementation of the “Belt and Road” Initiative, which poses a serious threat to the national public health security. To effectively respond to the cross-border transmission risk of tropical diseases and facilitate the process towards tropical disease control and elimination in China and the countries along the “Belt and Road” Initiative, this article analyzes the current status and governance risks of major imported tropical diseases, cross-border joint prevention and control polices implemented for tropical diseases and challenges in the establishment of the joint prevention and control system for tropical diseases in China, and discusses the establishment and implementation path of the joint prevention and control system for tropical diseases in countries along the “Belt and Road” Initiative. This path covers the establishment of cross-border cooperation mechanisms, research and development and pilot production of Chinese public health products, and implementation of key cross-border tropical disease prevention and control projects. The establishment of this system will further improve Chinese prevention and control capabilities for key cross-border tropical diseases, build a demonstrative prevention and control model for tropical diseases, and promote international technical exchanges and cooperation of tropical diseases.
