ObjectiveThis study aims to improve the management efficiency of zebrafish strains and zebrafish facilities and to transform the traditional management model that relies on manual labor. The goal is to promote a comprehensive transition from traditional manual operation to standardized, digitalized, automated, and refined management, thereby significantly improving management quality and work efficiency. MethodsThe research group independently developed the "Zebrafish Facility and Zebrafish Strain Automation Management System V1.0" (Software Copyright Registration No. 2021SR0236837), which comprehensively recorded all operational data of the zebrafish facilities and completed data on zebrafish strains. By combining in-depth mining of these data with management experience, management regulations were transformed into executable system instruction sets, and a full-process automated closed-loop management framework of "Monitoring–Analysis–Early Warning–Task Assignment–Execution–Recording" was established. ResultsThis management system has been operating stably for 5 years and has been successfully applied in 3 zebrafish facilities, cumulatively supporting 78 researchers and efficiently managing 1 108 plasmids and 1 123 zebrafish strains, among which 291 strains has been incorporated into zebrafish sperm bank management. A Likert scale survey of 28 core users covering 14 evaluation dimensions across 4 major categories showed average scores of 4.46–4.89, all far above the midpoint (3 points) of the scale, indicating that users gave high evaluations to all dimensions of the system. Meanwhile, the standard deviations of most dimensions were low (s ≤ 0.44), reflecting good consistency in user evaluations. ConclusionThis study integrates information technology, big data analysis, and modern management concepts to achieve a virtuous cycle of "data collection–analysis and execution–system optimization" in zebrafish facility management. It significantly improves management efficiency and refinement and promotes the development of management models toward automation.

Objective To gain insights into the biological characteristics of different populations of Culex tritaeniorhynchus within and around the Yellow Sea wetland from the perspective of the occurrence of resistance, we investigated the levels of resistance to deltamethrin and kdr gene mutation in the wetland and its peripheral areas. Methods Specimens were collected from Cx. tritaeniorhynchus populations at two monitoring sites in the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area, and also from two populations in Yancheng City and the Liuhe District of Nanjing, and the resistance of these mosquitoes to deltamethrin was determined using the CDC biotest bottle method. For each concentration of deltamethrin assessed, a random subset of exposed specimens was selected for amplification of the kdr gene fragment, followed by Sanger sequencing to identify and analyze resistance-associated mutations. Results The LC50 levels of deltamethrin among mosquitoes from the four populations in Luhe, Yancheng, the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and the Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area were 2.048 5, 7.798 2, 3.473 3, and 17.695 5 mg/mL, respectively, with corresponding concentrations of deltamethrin ranging from 0.005 to 5.000,0.050 to 50.000,0.050 to 25.000 and 0.050 to 50.000 mg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the ranges of the KT50 values were 11.76-107.43, 67.05-216.30,29.77-107.43 and 28.40-329.51 min; the 1-h knockdown rates were 34.58%-99.15%, 9.52%-43.80%, 55.09%-73.01%, and 10.09%-68.07%; and the 24-h mortality rates were 12.15%-67.52%,9.52%-79.56%,13.17%-82.21%, and 11.01%-78.99%, respectively. With respect to kdr gene mutation, we assayed a total of 63,70,59, and 57 mosquitoes for the four populations, for which we detected L1014F mutation frequencies of 14.29%, 35.00%, 20.34%, and 31.58%, respectively, with a majority of these mutations being heterozygous for resistance. In addition, five adult mosquitoes were identified has having synonymous mutations at site 1011[i. e. , AAT(asparagine)mutation to AAC(asparagine)]. Conclusions Our findings revealed the clear resistance of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus to deltamethrin in the Yancheng region of the Yellow Sea wetland, and the resistance phenotype and kdr frequency of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment were comparable to those of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment, thereby indicating that the resistance of different populations of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus was homogeneous under the pressure of different insecticide selection within and around the wetland. However, the underlying mechanisms need to be further studied.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of the medical-community linkage model on activities of daily living, psychological status and motor function of stroke patients in the community. MethodsA total of 60 stroke patients admitted to two community health service centers and their affiliated stations in Fengtai District, Beijing, from January, 2024 to August, 2025 were enrolled and randomly divided into control group (n = 30) and intervention group (n = 30). The control group received routine medicine, dietary care and rehabilitation management, while the intervention group underwent rehabilitation with the medical-community linkage model, for twelve weeks. They were assessed with modified Barthel Index (MBI), Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) and Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) before and after intervention. ResultsAfter intervention, the MBI, HAMA, HAMD and FMA scores of patients improved in both groups (|t| > 5.599, P < 0.001), and improved more in the intervention group than in the control group (P < 0.05), except MBI. The HAMA and HAMD scores of family members decreased in both groups (|t| > 10.333, P < 0.001), and decreased more in the intervention group than in the control group (t > 5.681, P < 0.001). ConclusionThe medical-community linkage model can further improve the motor function of stroke patients in community, as well as the psychological status of both patients and their family members.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of against-lateral correction Tuina(Chinese therapeutic massage)in treating atlanto-axial joint disorder(AAJD)and imaging changes.Methods:A total of 142 patients with AAJD were recruited.They were randomly allocated to a trial group and a control group using the random number table method,with 71 participants in each group.The trial group was treated with against-lateral correction Tuina 3 times weekly.The control group was offered conventional physical traction therapy once daily.The interventions lasted 2 weeks in both groups.The two groups of participants were observed before and after treatment for their changes in the global pain scale(GPS)score,visual analog scale(VAS)score for dizziness assessment,cervical range of motion(ROM)in rotation,and the extent of atlanto-dental displacement.Results:The GPS and VAS scores dropped after treatment in both groups(P<0.05)and were lower in the trial group than in the control group after treatment and at the follow-up(P<0.05).Participants in the trial group achieved a significant increase in the cervical ROM in rotation after treatment and at the follow-up compared to the pre-treatment value(P<0.05)and surpassed the control group(P<0.05);the control group only showed an increase in the left-side rotation(P<0.05).After the intervention,neither the intra-group nor the between-group comparison revealed significant differences in the extent of atlanto-dental displacement(P>0.05),though the trial group presented an improving tendency.Conclusion:Compared to physical traction,the against-lateral correction Tuina method works more significantly in improving pain,dizziness,and ROM in AAJD patients.

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.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

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.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of serum galectin-9 (Gal-9) in patients with dermatomyositis (DM) or clinically amyopathic dermatomyositis (CADM) .Methods:This cross-sectional study included 105 newly diagnosed patients with DM or CADM who were admitted to the Department of Dermatology in Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, from January 2015 to October 2024, among whom 53 had cancer-associated DM/CADM (CRDM). Additionally, an age-matched control group was included, consisting of 30 newly diagnosed cancer patients without autoimmune diseases, 27 systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients, and 31 healthy controls. Serum levels of Gal-9 and transcriptional intermediary factor 1-gamma (TIF1-γ) were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The relationship between Gal-9 levels and laboratory indicators of DM disease activity was analyzed. Comparisons between different groups were performed using the t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, and chi-square test. Spearman correlation analysis was used to assess the association between Gal-9 levels and laboratory indicators. The diagnostic efficacy of Gal-9 and TIF1-γ for CRDM was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results:Among the 105 DM/CADM patients, 35 were male (33.3%) and 70 were female (66.7%), with a mean age of 53.2 ± 15.1 years. In the 53 CRDM patients, the incidence rates of V-neck sign, dyschromia, and dysphagia were higher than those in non-CRDM patients (all P > 0.05). Serum Gal-9 levels in DM/CADM patients (21.2 [12.2, 32.3] ng/ml) were significantly higher than those in healthy controls (6.8 [5.4, 7.9] ng/ml, P < 0.001), SLE patients (12.3 [8.1, 15.5] ng/ml, P = 0.011), and cancer patients without autoimmune diseases (7.5 [4.9, 8.5] ng/ml, P < 0.001). Gal-9 levels were positively correlated with serum TIF1-γ antibody levels ( rs = 0.21, P = 0.029), serum ferritin ( rs = 0.29, P = 0.003), lactate dehydrogenase ( rs = 0.44, P < 0.001), creatine kinase ( rs = 0.28, P = 0.004), aspartate aminotransferase ( rs = 0.42, P < 0.001), C-reactive protein ( rs = 0.34, P < 0.001), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate ( rs = 0.46, P < 0.001). Among CRDM patients, those who had not received cancer treatment had higher Gal-9 levels (30.1 [23.3, 38.3] ng/ml) than those in stable condition after cancer treatment (13.5 [10.5, 27.9] ng/ml, P = 0.007). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) for serum TIF1-γ in diagnosing CRDM was 0.718, with an optimal cutoff value of 23.02 U/ml. The AUC for serum Gal-9 was 0.719, with an optimal cutoff value of 55.02 ng/ml. When combining both markers, the AUC increased to 0.783, with a sensitivity of 0.85 and specificity of 0.74. Conclusions:Gal-9 was highly expressed in serum of DM/CADM patients, particularly in CRDM patients. Dynamic monitoring of Gal-9 in CRDM patients may be helpful to monitor the therapeutic effect of malignancies.

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 compare the application effects of upper arm autogenous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) and forearm arteriovenous graft (AVG) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients, and to analyze the factors influencing the long-term patency rate of arteriovenous fistulas in MHD patients.Methods:It was a retrospective cohort study. The data of MHD patients treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2021 to May 2023 was collected. Participants were stratified into two groups: forearm AVG and upper arm AVF. The parameters including urea clearance index (Kt/V), serum C-reactive protein (CRP), albumin levels, access-related costs, complication rates, and long-term primary patency were compared. The end event was defined as arteriovenous fistula failure, that was, the arteriovenous fistula could not be used for dialysis puncture, or the arteriovenous fistula lost function after adequate blood flow was achieved. Kaplan-Meier survival curves with log-rank tests were employed to compare access survival, while multivariable Cox regression was used to analyze the independent associated factors of patency.Results:A total of 71 MHD patients were enrolled in this study, including 35 males, with age of (64.9±11.7) years and fistula establishment time of 30.0(17.0, 58.0) months. There were 32 cases (45.1%) in the forearm AVG group and 39 cases (54.9%) in the upper arm AVF group. Compared with the forearm AVG group, the upper arm AVF group had higher serum albumin levels [38.9 (37.0, 42.1) g/L vs. 38.0 (34.6, 40.0) g/L, Z=-2.364, P=0.018], higher pain scores [3.0(2.0, 5.0) points vs. 2.0(1.0, 3.0) points, Z=-3.012, P=0.003], and higher long-term patency rates of arteriovenous fistulas (at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months, all P<0.01), while the complication rate[61.5% (24/39) vs. 93.7% (30/32), χ2=10.015, P=0.002], the cost of the access [0 (0, 9,117.0) yuan·year -1·person -1vs. 10 380.5 (7 186.0, 30 228.5) yuan·year -1·person -1, Z=-4.094, P<0.001] were lower, and the length of the available puncture vessel segment was shorter [3.5(3.0, 5.0) cm vs. 6.5(6.0, 8.0) cm, Z=-6.477, P<0.001].The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis results showed that the primary patency rate of the upper arm AVF group was significantly higher than that of the forearm AVG group (Log-rank test, χ2=23.690, P<0.001). The multivariate Cox regression analysis results indicated that the type of fistula being forearm AVG (with upper arm AVF as reference, HR=4.907, 95% CI 1.740-13.840) and increased complications number ( HR=1.234, 95% CI 1.040-1.464) were the independent factors promoting the arteriovenous fistula failure in MHD patients. Conclusions:The type of internal fistula and the complications are the factors affecting the long-term patency rate of internal fistula in MHD patients.Upper arm AVF offers cost-effectiveness and sustained patency advantages over forearm AVG but requires careful consideration of puncture challenges and patient discomfort. Individualized access selection should balance anatomical constraints with clinical priorities.
