Cervical cancer active targeting nano drug delivery system delivers drug-loaded nanoparticles to cancer cells in a targeted way through specific ligand-receptor interaction, which has the advantages of reducing adverse drug reactions and improving drug efficacy. It is of great significance to understand the active targeting nano drug delivery system for cervical cancer to explore new carriers, drugs and targets.

Objective:The study aimed to assess the scientific rigor, transparency, and practicality of Chinese geriatric medicine guidelines and consensus published in academic journals.Methods:A systematic search was conducted across 8 major Chinese and English databases to identify guidelines and consensus documents from Chinese scholars in 2022.Results:The selected documents were evaluated using the STAR rating tool, resulting in the inclusion of 2 guidelines and 19 expert consensuses.The total scores ranged from 9.0 to 50.6 points, with an average score of 29.6±13.1 points.The highest score rate in the'Consensus Methods’category of expert consensuses was 47.4%, while the lowest score rate in the'Registration’category was 0.For guidelines, the highest score rate in the'Consensus Methods’category was 42.9%, while the lowest score rates were observed in the'Registration’, 'Plan’, and'Others’categories at 0.Conclusions:The overall quality of geriatric medicine guidelines and consensus in China requires enhancement.There is a need to improve training in guideline consensus development, involve methodologists, elevate the standards for journal publication, and strive to enhance the scientific rigor, transparency, and practicality of guidelines and consensus documents.

OBJECTIVESTo compare the paravertebral muscle (such as multifidus, erector spinae, psoas muscle) changes between the patients with degenerative lumbar instability and normal person by MRI and to observe the degeneration of paravertebral muscles. To analyze the relationship between paravertebral muscle degeneration and lumbar curvature of degenerative lumbar instability.

METHODSSixty patients with degenerative lumbar instability were retrospectively enrolled from December 2011 to July 2013 as degeneration group, meanwhile 60 health persons with no degenerative lumbar instability were selected as control group. No significant differences were found in the gender, age and body mass index between the two groups. The cross-sectional area(CSA) and percentage of fat infiltration area (FIA) of the paravertebral muscles at the L4-S1 levels were measured using T2-weighted axial MRI and Image J soft ware. And the lumbar curvature(expressed as lumbar lordosis angle) of all the patients in lumbar X-ray were measured in the two groups. The measured data were analyzed with independent samples t-test.

RESULTSThe difference of multifidus cross-sectional area and the percentage of fat infiltration in the patients of degenerative lumbar instability at the L4-L5, L5-S1 level, compared with the control group, was statistically significant (t = 2.768, t = 6.216, P < 0.05). Between the two groups, the percentage of fatty infiltration in erector spinae showed significant differences (t = 5.862, P < 0.05). The cross-sectional area of erector spinae and the degeneration of the psoas muscle between the two groups was not statistically significant. The lumbar lordsis angle in the patients with degenerative lumbar instability was (43.9 ± 15.6)°, which was higher than the (39.3 ± 14.2)° in control group (t = 2.915, P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSCompared with the control group, patients with degenerative lumbar instability exists erector spinae and multifidus muscle degeneration, and erector spinae is more obvious. The degeneration among psoas muscle, erector spinae and multifidus muscle are inconsistent, which may be related to the increasing of the lumbar lordosis angle in the patients with degenerative lumbar instability.
