ObjectiveTo evaluate the public health governance capacity in Jiangsu Province and provide an optimized pathway for the construction of a “strong, rich, beautiful, and high-quality” new Jiangsu. MethodsA total of 806 policy documents, 658 public information reports, and 148 research literatures related to public health governance capacity in Jiangsu Province from January 1995 to December 2023 were collected. The status of current public health goverance was assessed based on the evaluation criteria suitable for public health systems, and the strengths and the weaknesses of the system were identified. ResultsThe public health governance capability of Jiangsu Province was scored at 738.3 points, ranking 3rd nationally. Maternal health care and emergency response capacities achieved leading positions nationwide, both ranking 2nd. Jiangsu had exhibited a standardized guidance in the strategic level, a well-established management mechanism, an extensive coverage in information collection, and a scientifically established health targets setting. However, bottlenecks remained, including an unclear division of responsibilities across organizational departments, an insufficient public-health workforce, the absence of a stable growth mechanism for government funding investment, and difficulties in promptly identifying public needs. ConclusionJiangsu’s public-health system demonstrates leading nationally, yet several components remain underdeveloped. Future efforts should consolidate advantages while addressing weaknesses, further diversify content and forms, establish a stable funding increase mechanism, and clarify departmental functions, thereby providing solid health support for realizing the developmental goals of a “strong, rich, beautiful and high-quality” new Jiangsu.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC)is a malignant lesion originating from the oral mucosal squamous epithelium,account-ing for over 80％of oral and maxillofacial malignancies.Key etiological factors include tobacco,alcohol abuse,and betel quid chewing.In China,its incidence has shown an overall upward trend,posing a significant threat to public health.OSCC exhibits high local invasive-ness,making early diagnosis critical for improving prognosis.Its clinical management requires close multidisciplinary collaboration among oral and maxillofacial surgery,head and neck surgery,radiation oncology,medical oncology,reconstructive surgery,radiology,patholo-gy,and nutritional support teams.Given the increasing disease burden of OSCC and rapid development of multidisciplinary collaborative models,an expert panel has formulated this integrated management consensus based on evidence-based medicine and extensive deliber-ation.Centered on the'Prevention-Screening-Diagnosis-Treatment-Rehabilitation'framework,the consensus provides comprehensive guidance for the entire disease course of OSCC patients,aiming to standardize clinical practice.

To compare and analyze the clinical manifestations,laboratory characteristics,imaging findings,and treatment outcomes of patients with acute and chronic brucellosis,a retrospective analysis was conducted on 258 patients with brucellosis(202 in the acute group and 56 in the chronic group)hospitalized in Xinkang Hospital in Dalad Banner,Ordos City,Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region,from November 2023 to November 2024.General data,epidemiological characteristics,clinical presentations,laboratory test results,imaging findings,treatment outcomes,and prognosis were collected.The incidences of fever(51.5%vs 7.1%),fatigue(30.2%vs 12.5%),joint pain(42.9%vs 16.1%),and muscle pain(9.9%vs.1.8%)were significantly higher in the acute phase group(all P<0.05).The incidence of osteoarthritis complications was higher in the chronic brucellosis group(51.8%vs 8.9%,χ2=75.697,P<0.01).Univariate ANOVA analysisshowed that the Serum Agglutination Tests(SAT),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),total bilirubin(TBIL),creatinine(CRE),C-reactive protein(CRP),erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),and bone destructionexhibited statistically significant differences between the acute and chronic phases of brucellosis(all P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that abnormal ALT(OR=14.18,95%CI:1.11-181.72;P=0.041)and bone destruction(OR=0.16,95%CI:0.04-0.63;P=0.009)were associated with chronic brucellosis.After treatment,all patients experienced have symptom relief in varying degrees,with 157 patients(60.9%)cured and 101 patients(39.1%)symptomatic improved(P<0.01).In conclusion,the incidences of fever,fatigue,and joint pain in patients during the acute phase is significantly higher than that those in patients during the chronic phase,while the incidence of osteoarthritis complications is higher in chronic phase patients.The incidences of abnormal SAT,ALT,AST,TBIL,CRE,CRP,and ESR,and bone destruction varies at different stages of brucellosis.Of those,abnormal ALT and bone destruction show a stronger association with,which can assist the clinical staging of brucellosis.

In recent years,as the survival time of liver transplant recipients continues to increase,serious complications after transplantation,including diabetes,which affects the long-term survival of patients,have attracted more and more attention.Diabetes after liver transplantation can increase the risk of infection and cardiovascular disease,which in turn affects the survival rate of grafts and patients,and therefore,identification and intervention for high-risk populations are of great importance for improving the prognosis of patients.This article reviews the risk factors for diabetes after liver transplantation,in order to deepen the understanding of diabetes after liver transplantation and provide a theoretical basis for disease prevention and treatment.

Objective To establish two osteoarthritis models of destabilization of the medial meniscus(DMM)and chronic ankle instability(CAI)in mice,and compare the effects of knee osteoarthritis with varus deformity on ipsilateral ankle cartilage degeneration.Methods Thirty 6-week-old C57BL/6J male mice were randomly divided into a control group and two surgical groups(DMM group and CAI group),respectively.The progression of ankle joint degeneration was quantitatively evaluated through behavioral observation,imaging techniques and histopathology analysis in each group of mice over a 12-week period.Results A decline in gait stability and balance was observed in two surgical groups.Compared to the control group,the time required to cross the balance beam was increased by 23.20％,and the number of slips was increased by 43.26％at 12th week postoperatively in the DMM group.The bone volume fraction and bone mineral density of ankle joints also increased.Meanwhile,wear and tear of the ankle cartilage were found,with the formation of osteophytes,and OARSI score was increased by 88.89％.These changes in ankle joint were more pronounced in the CAI group.Conclusions This mouse model-based study revealed a coupling relationship between the knee and ankle motion.Knee osteoarthritis with varus deformity could lead to a significant ankle joint degeneration,while the damage was less severe than that observed in CAI.

Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of urinary microbiota transplantation（UMT）in treating interstitial cystitis（IC）.Methods:A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of three patients with IC treated with UMT at the Central Hospital of Jiangnan University from May 2022 to August 2024. Three women（45，62，79 years）presented with urinary frequency（10 - 90 min intervals），urgency，dysuria，lower abdominal pain，and non-organic sleep disorder，with nocturia（2 - 15 episodes）causing sleep difficulty. Disease durations were 3，6，and 21 years. Prior antibiotic therapy failed. Preoperative urinalysis/culture（x2）ruled out bacterial cystitis，and diagnosed as interstitial cystitis（IC），with one of transient positive urine culture. Preoperative scores for case 1 were self-rating depression scale（SDS）of 49，self-rating anxiety scale（SAS）of 31，interstitial cystitis symptom index（ICSI）of 5，interstitial cystitis problem index（ICPI）of 2，brief urological problem scale of 50，genitourinary pain assessment scale of 10，and pain catastrophizing scale（PCS）of 0. For case 2，the scores were 60 of SDS，66 of SAS，9 of ICSI，11 of ICPI，50 of brief urological problem scale，28 of genitourinary pain assessment scale，and 34 of PCS. For case 3，the scores were 44 of SDS，48 of SAS，11 of ICSI，5 of ICPI，33 of brief urological problem scale，27 of genitourinary pain assessment scale，and 21 of PCS. Preoperative bladder hydro-distention showed mucosal hemorrhage including central block hemorrhage（Case 1），numerous spots（Case 2），and distinct sheets（Case 3）. Preoperative urine 16S rRNA sequencing revealed low diversity，increased Gardnerella/ Bacteroides（opportunistic），and decreased Bacillus/ Streptococcus（beneficial）. Two healthy young female donors had normal comprehensive tests covering blood/urine/stool，coagulation，CRP，immunity，liver/kidney function，lipids，infectious diseases，hormones，tumor markers，urine culture，TOUCH，and expanded quantitative urine culture. Donor urine 16S rRNA showed low pathogenic（ Gardnerella/ Bacteroides）abundance. Donor midstream morning urine was catheter-collected，centrifuged，and the bacterial pellet resuspended in saline. Recipients underwent bladder irrigation pre-UMT. On UMT day，donor bacterial suspension was instilled via catheter with adverse event monitoring. Follow-up included clinic visits at 1 month and 1 year for symptom assessment，scale scoring，cystoscopy evaluating mucosal inflammation，hydrodistension checks，and telephone tracking of urinary symptoms every 2 - 3 months. Prognosis was assessed by symptom relief，scale score reduction，and mucosal recovery. Results:No adverse reactions occurred within 24 hours post-UMT in all 3 cases. Two patients showed same-day urinary urgency reduction；three reported relief from urinary frequency/urgency on postoperative day 7，with 2 - 3 hour daytime intervals and 0 - 5 nocturnal voids. Two patients experienced lower abdominal pain alleviation. Postoperative Week 1 urinalysis and urine cultures revealed no abnormalities. The 16S rRNA test showed a decrease in the abundance of harmful bacteria（e.g.， Cupriavidus，Ureaplasm，Mycobacterium，Pseudomonas）and an increase in the abundance of beneficial bacteria（ Dietzia，Halomonas，and Streptococcus），and the overall urobacterial structure was significantly improved and similar to that of the donor. Case 1 was followed up for 20 months，and the lab tests were normal，with SDS scales of 38，SAS of 20，ICSI of 3，ICPI of 2，brief urological problem scale of 44，genitourinary pain assessment scale of 10，PCS of 0，at 9 months post-op follow-up，indicating physical and mental improvement. The bladder hydro-distention revealed intact mucosa with only mild inflammation，which improved versus preoperative situation. Case 2 was followed up for 15 months，and the lab tests were normal，with SDS scales of 44，SAS of 34，ICSI of 4，ICPI of 2，brief scale of urinary problems of 0，genitourinary pain assessment scale of 9，PCS of 7，at 2 months post-op follow-up，showing improved anxiety/depression and quality of life. The hydro-distention showed decreased scattered hemorrhagic dots and mucosal inflammation. Case 3 was followed up for 13 months，with an increased leukocytes of urine and the other being normal for lab tests，and SDS scales of 35，SAS of 46，ICSI of 13，ICPI of 13，brief scale of urinary problems of 10，genitourinary pain assessment scale of 33，PCS of 11，at 13 months post-op follow-up，indicating physical and mental improvement. The hydro-distention revealed mucosal congestion，marked submucosal vasodilation，and inflammation decreased compared with preoperative situation. Conclusions:UMT alleviates urinary frequency，urgency，and pain in IC patients with sustained effects，significantly improves urine microecology，and shows no adverse events，positioning it as a viable intervention for IC.

Acute lateral ankle sprain (ALAS) is one of the most common sport injuries, with high incidence, recurrence and disability rates. Currently, exercise rehabilitation-based non-surgical treatment is the primary management approach for ALAS. However, there remain improper practices such as excessive immobilization or uncontrolled activity, which contribute to recurrent sprains and chronic ankle instability, significantly impairing patients′ athletic function and quality of life. To standardize the non-surgical management of ALAS, improve the cure rates, and reduce the recurrence and disability rates, Chinese Sports Rehabilitation Medicine Training Project of Chinese Medical Association, Foot and Ankle Basics and Orthopedics Group, Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Sports Medicine Branch of Jiangsu Medical Association organized relevant experts to formulate Expert consensus on non-surgical treatment for acute lateral ankle sprain ( version 2025), following the principles of scientific vigor, practicality, and innovation. Thirteen recommendations were proposed for standardized treatment protocols across different healing phases, aiming to provide references for standard management of ALAS and improve the therapeutic outcomes.

Thoracolumbar spine fracture often leads to severe pain, functional impairments, and neurological deficits, for which open reduction and internal fixation can effectively restore the spinal structural stability. Open decompression and reduction with internal fixation can help relieve spinal cord compression and improve spinal function in cases of concomitant cord injury. Although spinal stability can be restored through surgery, patients often face chronic pain and functional impairments postoperatively. A postoperative rehabilitation program is critical in optimizing therapeutic outcomes, reducing complications, and minimizing the risk of secondary injuries. However, current rehabilitation methods, such as physical therapy, functional training, and pain management, are confronted with problems in clinical practice, including significant variation in efficacy, poor patient adherence, and prolonged rehabilitation period. There is an urgent need for a unified rehabilitation strategy to address these problems. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Physicians Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and the Spine Health Professional Committee of the Chinese Human Health Technology Promotion Association organized experts from relevant fields to formulate Evidence-based guidelines for rehabilitation treatment after internal fixation of thoracolumbar spine fracture in adults ( version 2025) by integrating evidences from clinical researches and advanced rehabilitation concepts at home and abroad. A total number of 14 recommendations concerning the rehabilitation treatment with multimodal analgesia, psychological intervention, deep vein thrombosis prevention, core muscle and extremity exercise, appropriate use of braces, early weight-bearing, device-aided rehabilitation exercise, neuroregulatory therapy, rehabilitation team were put forward, aiming to standardize the post-operative rehabilitation process following internal fixation, promote the functional recovery, and enhance patients′ quality of life.
