Objective:To explore the effect of Taichi motor imagination therapy combined with resistance exercise on the recovery of heart function and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure(CHF).Methods:A total of 118 elderly CHF patients admitted to Huangshan Shoukang Hospital between January 2020 and December 2023 were included in this randomized controlled trial.Participants were randomly divided into intervention group(n=59)and control group(n=59).Participants in the control group received conventional anti-heart failure treatment,while those in the intervention group received additional Taichi motor imagination therapy and resistance exercise.The in-tervention lasted for 3 months.Cardiac function[left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDd)and interventricular septal thickness at diastole(IVSTd)],quality of life[Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire(MLHFQ)],markers of heart failure and neurohormones[B-type natri-uretic peptide(BNP),norepinephrine(NE),aldosterone(ALD)and angiotensin Ⅱ(AngⅡ)]levels and the inci-dence of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)during intervention were compared between the two groups.Results:Compared to those in the control group,participants in the intervention group had significant higher LVEF[(50.52±1.96)％vs.(45.84±2.21)％],and significant lower LVEDd[(57.12±1.72)mm vs.(60.45±2.14)mm],IVSTd[(8.84±0.82)mm vs.(10.00±1.19)mm],MLHFQ score[(28.86±5.34)points vs.(34.51±6.57)points],BNP[(9.23±1.35)pg/ml vs.(13.62±1.49)pg/ml],NE[(13.09±0.93)pmol/L vs.(16.63±0.86)pmol/L],ALD[(1.82±0.12)ng/L vs.(2.35±0.15)ng/L],AngⅡ[(0.75±0.07)ng/L vs.(0.90±0.06)ng/L]and incidence of MACE(6.90％vs.26.32％)(P＜0.01 all).Conclusion:Taichi motor imagination therapy combined with resistance exercise may improve the cardiac function and quality of life in CHF patients.

Objective To carry out a dynamic simulation analysis on the surgical process of the surgical robot for pedicle screw placement so as to enhance the safety of the procedure.Methods Firstly,the process of pedicle screw placement were analyzed to determine the three typical force conditions during pedicle screw track drilling including no-load condition,bone layer switching condition and spine dynamic displacement condition.Secondly,a virtual protype model of the surgical robot for pedicle screw placement was constructed with the automated dynamic analysis of mechanical systems(ADAMS).Finally,the dynamic characteristics of the surgical robot were simulated and analyzed with considerations on the three typical force conditions.Results The driving torque of the robot joints was sensitive to the load applied to the end of the opener mechanism under a wide range of operating conditions.Conclusion The surgical robot meets the requirements for pedicle screw placment,and a new idea is provided for enhancing the accuracy of pedicle screw placement.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(8):32-37]

Macrophages are closely related to tumor progression,and can promote tumor growth and pro-liferation by promoting inflammation,angiogenesis and immunosuppression and so on,as well as killing tumors by directly killing tumor cells and triggering specific immune responses.Iron death,as an iron-depend-ent cell death caused by lipid peroxidation,can effectively kill tumor cells when regulated from the perspective of iron homeostasis,and can also release pro-inflammatory factors,trigger inflammatory reactions,change the survival environment of tumors as well as reduce the immune susceptibility of tumor cells.In recent years,more and more studies have shown that macrophages and iron death are closely related.In this paper,the rela-tionship between macrophages and iron death in terms of their functional properties and targeting of tumors are mainly introduced,and an overview of the functional properties of the two differentiated phenotypes of macrophages for the treatment of iron death in tumors is provided.

Objective:s To investigate the risk factors for delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning (DEACMP) in patients with acute carbon monoxide poisoning (ACOP) and to develop predictive models based on machine learning algorithms.Methods:Patients with ACOP hospitalized at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from August 2019 to October 2024 were included, with the occurrence of DEACMP as the outcome measure. The dataset was randomly divided into training and validation sets at a ratio of 7:3. Lasso regression was used to select features influencing the outcome in training sets. Nine machine learning models—including Random Forest (RF), Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), and Support Vector Machine (SVM)—were constructed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted and the area under the curve (AUC) calculated for each model. Calibration curves were used to assess accuracy, and decision curve analysis (DCA) was applied to evaluate clinical utility. The SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) method was employed to visualize and interpret the best-performing model.Results:A total of 264 ACOP patients were included, of whom 54 (20.5%) developed DEACMP. Lasso regression identified eight key feature variables. Based on these factors, predictive models were constructed, showing good AUC stability across the nine machine learning models in both training (0.92–0.99) and validation sets (0.85–0.91). The RF model performed best, with an AUC of 0.99 in the training set and 0.90 in the validation set; its calibration curve and DCA curve also demonstrated excellent performance. SHAP analysis of the RF model revealed the importance ranking of factors from highest to lowest as follows: Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, duration of coma, age, history of coronary heart disease, CK-MB level, monocyte count, diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and drinking history.Conclusions:The RF model exhibited the highest predictive performance for DEACMP occurrence in ACOP patients. The influencing factors, ranked in order of importance from highest to lowest, are as follows: GCS score, duration of coma, age, history of coronary heart disease, CK-MB level, monocyte count, DBP, and drinking history.

Postoperative infection of internal fixation of closed fractures the lower limbs in adults represents a devastating complication, characterized by diagnostic challenges, prolonged treatment duration and high disability rates. Current management of these infections faces multiple challenges, such as difficulties in early accurate diagnosis, and various controversies about the treatment plan, leading to poor overall diagnosis and treatment results. To address these issues, based on evidence-based medicine and principles with emphasis on scientific rigor, clinical applicability and innovation, the Trauma Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Orthopedics Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Trauma Orthopedics and Polytrauma Group of the Resuscitation and Emergency Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association have collaboratively organized a panel of relevant experts to develop the Guideline for diagnosis and treatment of infection after internal fixation of closed lower limb fractures in adults ( version 2025). The guideline proposed 10 recommendations, aiming to provide a foundation for standardized diagnosis and treatment of postoperative infection in adults with closed lower limb fractures.

Pseudogenes have long been regarded as fossilized,nonfunctional genomes that are evidence of human evolution.However,in recent years,pseudogenes have been found to play an important role in both physiological and pathological processes,especially in tumors,regulating occurrence and development of tumors in parental gene dependence and parental gene independence,including liver cancer.In this paper,we summarized research progress of pseudogenes and their roles in proliferation,apoptosis,inva-sion and metastasis of liver cancer cells,providing new ideas for treatment of liver cancer.

The cell cycle is the series of events by which a cell divides into two daughter cells and is guided by a unique system of cell cycle regulation.The disorder of cell cycle regulation system is the fundamental cause of tumorigenesis.This paper will focus on the key regulatory points of cell cycle and discuss the research progress of tumor cell cycle regulation,so as to provide theore-tical basis for the development of new therapeutic strategies for tumors.
