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 analyze the clinical characteristics of anti-melanoma differentiation associated gene 5 (MDA5) antibody-positive juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) patients.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted. The positive group included 18 children with anti-MDA5 antibody-positive JDM who were admitted to the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology at Capital Center for Children′s Health with Capital Medical University between January 2016 and January 2023. Another 36 children with anti-MDA5 antibody-negative JDM hospitalized during the same period were enrolled as the negative group. Based on the extent of pulmonary involvement and pulmonary CT scores, the MDA5-positive group was further divided into severe pulmonary involvement and non-severe pulmonary involvement subgroups. Chi-square test and Kruskal-Wallis test were used to compare clinical features, laboratory test results between groups.Results:Among the 18 patients in the MDA5-positive group, 7 were male and 11 were female, with an age of onset of 5.0 (2.6, 9.4) years and disease duration of 6.0 (4.0, 9.3) months. The MDA5-negative group included 36 cases (14 male, 22 female), with an age of onset of 4.9 (2.0, 7.0) years and disease duration of 5.0 (1.8, 7.0) months. The MDA5-positive group exhibited significantly higher rates of arthritis, skin ulcers, and interstitial lung disease (ILD), along with elevated serum ferritin (SF) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate levels compared to the MDA5-negative group (9/18 vs. 11% (4/36), 6/18 vs. 3% (1/36), 16/18 vs. 33% (12/36), 327 (141, 518) vs. 131 (68, 257) μg/L, 17.5 (12.5, 26.8) vs. 11.0 (5.0, 13.0) mm/1 h, χ2=7.92, 7.41, 14.84, Z=2.50, 2.87, all P<0.05). Conversely, the MDA5-positive group had lower rates of muscle weakness and lower creatine kinase levels (5/18 vs. 75% (27/36), 58.5 (49.3, 97.5) vs. 225.0 (68.0, 695.5) U/L, χ2=11.08, Z=-2.94, both P<0.05). Severe pulmonary involvement 6 cases and non-severe pulmonary involvement subgroups 12 cases. Among the MDA5-positive patients, those in the severe pulmonary involvement subgroup had an older age at onset and higher rates of muscle weakness as well as hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), SF, and Krebs von den Lungen-6 (KL-6) compared to the non-severe subgroup (all P<0.05). In the MDA5-positive group, 17 patients improved after treatment with glucocorticoids combined with immunosuppressants, while One died due to rapidly progressive ILD. Conclusions:Anti-MDA5 antibody-positive JDM is characterized by typical skin rashes, a high incidence of arthritis and skin ulcers, relatively mild muscle involvement, but is prone to ILD. Among MDA5-positive patients, those with older age at onset, muscle involvement (manifested as muscle weakness and elevated muscle enzymes (LDH, HBDH)), or significantly elevated KL-6 and SF levels are more likely to develop severe pulmonary complications.

Objective To explore the influence of attachment anxiety on subjective well-being of warship officers and soldiers,and reveal the mediating roles of self-esteem and negative emotions between them. Methods A total of 288 warship officers and soldiers were enrolled by convenience sampling method. Adult attachment scale,self-esteem scale,generalized anxiety disorder-7 items scale,patient health questionnaire-9 and Memorial University of Newfoundland scale of happiness were used for questionnaire survey. Pearson correlation analysis,multiple linear regression analysis and structural equation modeling were used to analyze the relationships between attachment anxiety,self-esteem,negative emotions and subjective well-being. Results Correlation analysis showed that attachment anxiety,self-esteem,anxiety,depression and subjective well-being were significantly correlated (all P<0.01). Multiple regression analysis showed that attachment anxiety,self-esteem,depression and anxiety could jointly predict 42.4％ of subjective well-being. The analysis of chain mediating effect (x2/df=0.170,P=0.844,good fit index[GFI]=0.999,adjusted GFI=0.996,normative fit index[FI]=0.999,relative FI=0.997,comparative FI=1.000,root mean square error of approximation=0.000) showed that self-esteem and negative emotions played complete chain mediating roles between attachment anxiety and subjective well-being. Conclusion Attachment anxiety of warship officers and soldiers can affect their subjective well-being not only through the mediation of self-esteem and negative emotions,but also through the complete chain mediation of self-esteem and negative emotions.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety between WangShiBaoChiWan and mosapride in the treatment of functional dyspepsia (FD).Methods:From September 2019 to September 2020, patients with postprandial fullness and early satiation who met the Rome Ⅳ criteria for FD diagnosis were enrolled from 15 hospitals, including the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University (Shanghai Changhai Hospital), Beijing Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical College. The subjects were randomly divided into WangShiBaoChiWan (experimental) group and mosapride (control) group in the ratio of 1∶1. The treatment regimens were WangShiBaoChiWan+ mosapride simulator, WangShiBaoChiWan simulator+ mosapride, respectively with a treatment period of 2 weeks. The primary efficacy outcome was the improvement rates of main symptoms before and after treatment, the secondary efficacy primary efficacy outcome was the total clinical effective rate and the change of the single symptom score. And the safety indicator included adverse events. Independent sample t-test, paired t-test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 251 FD patients were enrolled in the full analysis set, including 124 in the experimental group and 127 in the control group; 241 FD patients were in the per-protocol analysis set, including 117 in the experimental group and 124 in the control group. The analysis of per-protocol analysis set showed that the improvement rates of the main symptoms of the experimental group and the control group were (66±29)% and (60±30)%, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The improvement rate of the main symptoms of the experimental group reached 117% of that of the control group, which exceeded the expected non-inferiority standard of 80%. The total clinical effective rates of the experimental group and the control group were 76.07% (89/117) and 75.81% (94/124), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The results of full analysis set showed that the incidence of adverse events of the experimental group and the control group was 1.62% (2/124) and 1.57% (2/127), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). There were no serious adverse events in the two groups. Conclusion:The improvement rate of the main symptoms of WangShiBaoChiWan is not inferior to that of mosapride in the treatment of FD, and it has good safety.

Objective:To investigate the safety and prognosis of partial nephrectomy (PN) in the treatment of highly malignant non-clear renal cell carcinoma (nccRCC).Methods:Clinical data of 47 patients with cT 1N 0M 0 high malignant nccRCC treated in Changhai Hospital from March 2016 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients received PN. There were 34(72.3%) males and 13(27.7%) females. The mean age was (53.5±15.0) years, and average BMI, was(23.7±3.4)kg/m 2.The maximum tumor diameter was (29.8±12.6) mm, and R. E.N.A.L. score was 7(5-9), with 37(78.7%) cases of T 1a and 10(21.3%) cases of T 1b. The mean estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) before surgery was (96.3±25.5) ml/ (min·1.73m 2). All patients underwent PN, including 1 patient (2.1%) undergoing open surgery, 29 patients (61.7%) undergoing laparoscopic surgery, and 17 patients (36.2%) undergoing robotic surgery. There were a total of 22(46.8%) cases of papillary cell carcinoma(pRCC)type Ⅱ, 4(8.5%) cases of collecting duct carcinoma (cdRCC), 9(19.1%) cases of MiT family translocated renal cell carcinoma (tRCC), 5(10.6%) cases of mucoid tubular and spindle cell carcinoma (mtSCC)and 7(14.9%) cases of unclassified renal cell carcinoma (uRCC). The surgical conversion rate, positive margin rate, operative time, intraoperative blood loss, complications, and postoperative hospital stay were analyzed. Preoperative and postoperative eGFR were analyzed, and overall survival (OS) and cancer specific survival (CSS) were calculated. Results:All the operations were successfully completed. No radical operation or open operation was performed, with operation time of(100±60) min and intraoperative blood loss of(100±59) ml. There were no intraoperative complication and 1 case (2.1%) suffered from postoperative complication. Postoperative hospital stay were 5 (4-6) days. The mean eGFR after surgery was (86.5±27.1) ml/(min·1.73m 2), and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.041). In this study, the mean follow-up time was (45.7±20.9)months, and no adjuvant therapy was used after surgery. During the follow-up period, 2 patients died, who all of them were kidney cancer-related death, and both OS and CSS were 95.7% (45/47). Conclusions:PN is safe, feasible and has a good prognosis in the treatment of high malignant T 1 nccRCC. For tumors with clear imaging boundaries and complete envelope, complete tumor resection is more likely, postoperative follow-up should be strict, and no remedial radical or systemic treatment was required.

Objective:To establish the normal values of water-perfused high resolution esophageal manometry (HREM)(GAP-36A) at resting period, water swallowing, semisolid swallowing and solid swallowing in Chinese population.Methods:From September 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020, 91 healthy volunteers receiving water-perfused HREM (GAP-36A) at resting period, water swallowing, semisolid swallowing and solid swallowing were selected from 9 hospitals (Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology; the First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University; the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University; the Second Affiliated Hospital, Naval Medical University; the First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University; the First Affiliated Hospital, University of Science and Technology of China; Aviation General Hospital of China Medical University; the Affiliated Hospital of Medical School of Nanjing University and the First People′s Hospital of Yichang). Parameters included the position of the upper and lower edges of the upper esophageal sphincter (UES) and lower esophageal sphincter (LES), the length of the LES and UES, the position of the pressure inversion point (PIP), the resting pressure of UES and LES and swallow-related parameters such as the distal contraction integral (DCI), 4 s integrated relaxation pressure (IRP), distal latency (DL) and UES residual pressure. One-way analysis of variance, post-hoc test and sum rank test were used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 87 healthy volunteers were enrolled, including 40 males and 47 females, aged (38.5±14.2) years old (ranged from 19 to 65 years old). The position of the upper and lower edges of the LES was (42.7±2.8) and (45.6±2.8) cm, respectively, the length of the LES was (2.9±0.4) cm, and the position of PIP was (43.3±2.8) cm. The position of the upper and lower edges of the UES was (18.1±3.0) and (22.6±2.0) cm, respectively, and the length of the UES was (4.8±1.0) cm. The resting pressure of LES and UES was (17.4±10.7) and (84.1±61.1) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), respectively. The DCI value at solid swallowing was higher than those at water swallowing and semisolid swallowing ((2 512.4±1 448.0) mmHg·s·cm vs. (2 183.2±1 441.2) and (2 150.8±1 244.8) mmHg·s·cm), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-4.30 and -3.74, both P<0.001). The values of 4 s IRP at semisolid swallowing and solid swallowing were lower than that at water swallowing ((4.6±4.1) and (4.9±3.9) mmHg vs. (5.4±3.9) mmHg), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=3.38 and 2.09, P=0.001 and 0.037). The DL at water swallowing was shorter than those at semisolid swallowing and solid swallowing ((8.5±1.8) s vs. (9.8±2.2) and (10.6±2.8) s), and the DL at semisolid swallowing was shorter than that at solid swallowing, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-10.21, -13.91 and -4.68, all P<0.001). The UES residual pressure at water swallowing was higher than those at semisolid swallowing and solid swallowing (9.5 mmHg, 6.5 to 12.3 mmHg vs. 8.0 mmHg, 4.5 to 11.7 mmHg and 5.5 mmHg, 2.0 to 9.3 mmHg), and the UES residual pressure at semisolid swallowing was higher than that at solid swallowing, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=3.48, 10.30 and 6.35, all P<0.001). Conclusions:The normal values of water-perfused HREM (GAP-36A) in Chinese population at resting period, water swallowing, semisolid swallowing and solid swallowing can provide a reference basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment for patients receiving water-perfused HREM examination.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Toumai ? endoscopic robotic system in radical prostatectomy. Methods:This study was a single-center phase Ⅲ randomized controlled study. From June 2020 to January 2021, patients with prostate cancer who met the inclusion criteria in Changhai Hospital Affiliated to Naval Military Medical University were divided into the experimental group and the control group by random table method. Inclusion criteria included aged 18 to 80 years, pathologically diagnosed as prostate cancer, clinical stage ≤T 2N 0M 0. Exclusion criteria included patients requiring emergency surgery, having serious cardiovascular diseases and cannot tolerate surgery, having participated in other investigational drug or device clinical trials within the last 3 months. The experimental group used Toumai ? laparoscopic robotic system, and the continence group used the Da Vinci robotic system. The patients in both groups underwent radical prostatectomy via a transabdominal approach, which was performed by two surgeons. The clinical characteristics between the two groups were compared, related adverse events were recorded, and PSA and urinary continence were followed up one month after the operation. Results:A total of 44 patients were enrolled in this study, including 22 cases in the experimental group and 22 cases in the control group. The mean age of patients in the trial group and the control group was (67.7±7.5) years and (66.4±6.3) years, respectively. The median PSA at diagnosis was 10.5 (7.7, 23.7) ng/ ml and 13.5 (8.9, 24.7) ng/ ml, respectively. Biopsy Gleason score of 6, 7, 8 and 9 in experimental group were 13.6% (3/22), 68.2% (15/22), 4.5% (1/22) and 13.6% (3/22), respectively, and in the control group were 4.5% (1/22), 59.1% (13/22), 22.7% (5/22) and 13.6% (3/22) respectively. The middle risk and high risk group in the experimental group was 50.0% (11/22), 50.0% (11/22), and the control group was 36.4% (8/22), 63.6% (14/22). There was no statistical difference between the two groups.The operations in both groups were successfully performed. There were no conversions to open or laparoscopic surgeries, and no Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅲcomplications. There was no significant difference in the estimated blood loss during the operation [(109.1±51.6)ml vs.(94.5±51.6)ml] and the blood transfusion rate [9.1%(2/22)vs. 4.5%(1/22)] in both groups. The operation time was significantly higher in the experimental group than that in the control group [164.5(130.5, 214.3) min vs. 88.0(65.3, 110.5)min, P<0.001]. The positive rate of surgical margin was 13.6% (3/22) in the experimental group and 36.4% (8/22) in the control group, respectively, showing no significant difference. The pathologic stages of pT 2, pT 3a and pT 3bin experimental group were 63.6% (14/22), 13.6% (3/22) and 22.7% (5/22), respectively, while those in control group were 36.3% (8/22), 40.9% (9/22) and 22.7% (5/22), respectively, showing no significant difference. The recovery rates of urine control in the experimental group and the control group were 22.7% (5/22) and 22.7% (5/22), respectively. The median PSA in the experimental group and the control group were 0.055 (0.021, 0.103) ng/ ml and 0.032 (0.010, 0.089) ng/ ml, respectively, with no statistical difference. Conclusions:The Toumai ? endoscopic robotic system can successfully perform radical prostatectomy, based on insignificant difference from Da Vinci robotic system in safety and efficacy. The short-term follow-up showed that tumor control and urinary continence have recovered well in the test group. The long-term effect of the new system on tumor control and functional recovery after radical prostatectomy needs further multi-center studies.
