Nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF), predominantly affecting the elderly, can lead to intractable pain, vertebral collapse, progressive kyphotic deformity, and neurological impairment, significantly compromising patients′ quality of life. There exists considerable debate on diagnosis and management of OVF, encompassing key issues such as clinical diagnosis and staging criteria for nonunion, surgical indications and procedure selection, and postoperative rehabilitation planning. Currently, there lacks standardized clinical guideline and expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of OVF nonunion in China. To address this gap, Minimally Invasive Surgery Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Osteoporosis Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Prevention and Rehabilitation Committee for Osteoporosis of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery Branch of China Association for Geriatric Care jointly organized domestic experts in spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rehabilitation to formulate the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures ( version 2025), based on existing literature and clinical experience and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and practicality. The guideline provided 13 evidence-based recommendations encompassing diagnosis and treatment of OVF nonunion, aiming to standardize its clinical management.

Acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fracture (ASOTLF) can lead to chronic low back pain, kyphosis deformity, pulmonary dysfunction, loss of mobility, and even life-threatening complications. Vertebral augmentation is currently the mainstream treatment method for this condition. In 2019, the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma and the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association collaboratively led the development of Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation for acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures. Six years later, with advances in clinical diagnosis and treatment techniques as well as accumulating evidence in related fields, the 2019 guideline requires updating. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, the Spinal Health Professional Committee of China Human Health Science and Technology Promotion Association, and the Minimally Invasive Orthopedics Professional Committee of Shaanxi Medical Doctor Association have organized experts in the field to develop the Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation of acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025) , based on the latest evidence-based medical researches. This guideline incorporates 3 recommendations retained from the 2019 version with updated strength of evidence, along with 12 new recommendations. It provides recommendations from six aspects of diagnosis, pain management, treatment option selection, prevention of postoperative complications, anti-osteoporosis therapy, and postoperative rehabilitation, aiming to provide a reference for standard treatment of vertebral augmentation for ASOTLF in hospitals at all levels.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of modified Lizhong Decoction on gastric and duodenal ulcers(GDU)of the spleen-stomach cold deficiency type,as well as its influence on gastric function and inflammatory mediators.Methods From April 2023 to May 2025,patients diagnosed with gastric dyspepsia of the spleen and stomach cold deficiency type at Nanyang First People's Hospital were randomly assigned to either the Western medicine group(n=53)or the combined therapy group(n=53).The Western medicine group received oral rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated tablets and sucralfate suspension,while the combined therapy group received the same Western medication regimen plus modified Lizhong Decoction.Both groups underwent a 6-week treatment course.Outcomes including clinical efficacy after 6 weeks,gastric mucosal morphology scores,gastric function,levels of inflammatory mediators,mucosal repair-related factors,oxidative stress markers,quality of life before and after treatment,and treatment safety were compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate in the combined group after 6 weeks of treatment was significantly higher than that in the Western medicine group(P<0.05).After 6 weeks of treatment,both groups showed reduced mucosal thickness,inflammatory cell infiltration,glandular density scores,and decreased serum levels of cholecystokinin(CCK),motilin(MTL),gastrin(GAS),interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB),and malondialdehyde(MDA)compared to baseline,with greater reductions observed in the combined group(P<0.05).Additionally,serum levels of calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP),trefoil factor 1(TFF1),epidermal growth factor(EGF),epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR),and superoxide dismutase(SOD),as well as quality-of-life scores across multiple domains,were significantly increased from baseline in both groups,with the combined group showing superior improvements(P<0.05).During the treatment period,the incidence of adverse reactions was 11.32%in the combined group and 5.66%in the Western medicine group,with no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Modified Lizhong Decoction demonstrated a definite therapeutic effect on GDU of the spleen and stomach cold deficiency type,effectively improving gastric mucosal morphology,enhancing gastric function,suppressing inflammatory responses and oxidative stress,promoting the secretion of mucosal repair-related factors,improving patients'quality of life,and exhibiting favorable safety.

Psoriasis is a chronic,inflammatory,recurrent,and systemic disease mediated by immune dysregulation,which is often accompanied by psychological issues such as depression and anxiety.Recent research on the gut microbiota and depression and anxiety has made significant progress,with studies demonstrating that the gut microbiota plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis.Dysbiosis of the gut microbiota may be an important comorbidity mechanism linking psoriasis with depression and anxiety.This article summarizes the changes in the abundance of gut microbiota in patients with psoriasis and those with depression and anxiety,as well as how the gut microbiota influences this comorbidity through neural pathways and immune-endocrine pathways.It aims to provide novel perspectives for the study of the comorbidity mechanisms and clinical treatment of psoriasis and depression and anxiety.In the future,targeting the gut microbiota may enable the development of personalized treatments.

This study was aimed at exploring the prevalence and drug sensitivity of Gordonia strains isolated from sputum samples in Henan Province,to provide data to aid in the prevention and treatment of Gordonia infection.A combination of 16S rDNA and sec A1 gene sequencing was used to identify the isolated strains,and susceptibility to16 drugs was determined with the broth microdilution method.A total of 21 strains were identified through 16S rDNA gene and sec A1 gene sequencing,including five strains of Gordonia broncians,eight strains of Gordonia paraphernivans,seven strains of Gordonia sputi,and one strain of Gordonia aichiensis.Drug sensi-tivity testing showed high Gordonia sensitivity to drugs such as ceftriaxone,linezolid,doxycycline,amoxicillin/clavulanic acid,mino-cycline,cefotaxime,trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole,imipenem,tobramycin,and clarithromycin.The sensitivity rates of the isolated strains were 90.48%(19/21),100%(21/21),90.48%(19/21),90.48%(19/21),95.24%(20/21),90.48%(19/21),90.48%(19/21),90.48%(19/21),and 95.24%(20/21),respectively.Gordonia showed high resistance to rifampicin and cefepime,with rates of 28.57%(6/21)and 19.05%(4/21),respectively.Meanwhile,the resistance varied among bacterial strains.The resistance rate of G.sputi to rifampicin reached 71.43%(5/7),whereas that of G.parapffinivoras to cefepime was 37.5%(3/8).The main species of Gordo-nia isolated from sputum samples of patients in Henan Province were G.bronchialis,G.paraffinivoras,G.sputi,and G.aichiensis.Drug sensitivity tests indicated that drugs including amoxicillin/clavulanic acid,ceftriaxone,cefotaxime,tobramycin,clarithromycin,mi-nocycline,trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole,linezolid,and doxycycline had good antibacterial effects against Gordonia.

Objective To evaluate the influencing factors of aspiration in neurological critically ill patients by Meta-analysis.Methods PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,CNKI,and Wanfang Data were searched from inception to 1 October,2023,to obtain relevant studies on influencing fac-tors of aspiration in neurological critically ill patients.The literature screening,data extraction and quality evaluation were completed by two researchers.RevMan 5.4 and Stata 13.0 software were ap-plied for pooled Meta-analysisand assessed publication bias,respectively.Results A total of 8 arti-cles,including 1,315 neurocritical care patients,were included in this study.Nine influencing factors related to aspiration were extracted for Meta-analysis.The Meta-analysis results showed that the three influencing factors that caused aspiration in neurocritical care patients were stroke history(OR=5.03,95％CI,2.71 to 9.32,P＜0.000 01),National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score＞10(OR=3.35,95％CI,1.75 to 6.42,P=0.000 3),and gastric residual volume＞150mL(OR=7.13,95％CI,2.55 to 9.96,P=0.001).Conclusion This study provides a scientific basis for clinical healthcare professionals to early identify high-risk patients for aspiration,take targeted inter-vention measures,and prevent the occurrence of aspiration.

Diffuse pediatric-type high-grade glioma (pHGG), H3- and isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-wild-type, is a World Health Organization (WHO) grade 4 diffuse glioma with malignant histological features, which typically affects in children and adolescents. This multidisciplinary treatment case involves a 24-year-old young female patient initially diagnosed via biopsy. After concurrent chemoradiotherapy reduced the tumor size, complete resection was achieved, followed by adjuvant therapy with temozolomide and regorafenib. After recurrence, the tumor was resected again, and a second course of radiotherapy was administered, but the disease ultimately progressed rapidly, with an overall survival exceeding 32 months. pHGGs are highly malignant, aggressive, and associated with poor prognosis. Accurate diagnosis and targeted intervention require close collaboration among a multidisciplinary team, which highlights the critical value of multidisciplinary manage-ment in clinical practice.

Cervical spinal cord injury without fracture-dislocation (CSCIWFD) is referred to as a special type of cervical spinal cord injury characterized by traumatic spinal cord dysfunction and no significant bony structural abnormalities on imagines. Duo to the high risk of missed diagnosis during the initial consultation, CSCIWFD may lead to progressive neurological deterioration or even complete paralysis, severely impacting patients′ prognosis. Currently, there are no established consensuses over the diagnosis and treatment of CSCIWFD, such as the lack of evidence-based standards for indications of non-surgical treatment and risk of secondary neurological injury, as well as debates over the optimal timing for surgical intervention and indications for different surgical approaches. To address these issues, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the relevant fields to formulate Diagnosis and treatment guideline for acute cervical spinal cord injury without fracture- dislocation in adults ( version 2025) . Based on evidence-based medicine and the principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability, the guidelines proposed 11 recommendations covering terminology, diagnosis, evaluation treatment, and rehabilitation, etc., aiming to standardize the management of CSCIWFD.

Vertebral refracture following percutaneous vertebral augmentation (PVA) is commonly seen in elderly patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures (OTLCF). It can lead to recurrent pain, loss of vertebral height, progression of kyphosis, and even neurological dysfunction, significantly impairing patients′ quality of life. Current diagnosis and treatment face multiple challenges, including high misdiagnosis rate, difficulty in choosing between surgical and non-surgical treatment options, lack of standardized surgical protocols, interference from intralesional bone cement during procedures, inadequate stability of internal fixation in osteoporotic bone, and suboptimal compliance of anti-osteoporotic therapy. Establishing a standardized diagnostic and therapeutic framework is urgently needed. To standardize the management process and improve outcomes for vertebral refractures after PVA in elderly OTLCF patients, Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the field to develop Guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of vertebral refracture after percutaneous vertebral augmentation in elderly patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025), based on current literature and clinical experience, and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability. A total of 11 recommendations were proposed, encompassing diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of vertebral refracture after PVA in elderly patients with OTLCF, aiming to provide a foundation for a standardized management.
