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.

In recent years, the development of next-generation sequencing has brought a broad prospect for the investigation of the pathogenesis, signal pathways, and biomarkers of skin diseases. Due to the advantages in the recognition of nucleic acid sequences, next-generation sequencing can recognize not only microorganisms on normal skin surfaces, but also rare pathogens which were difficult to be identified before. This review summarizes the application of next-generation sequencing in non-hereditary dermatoses, aiming to explore their pathogenesis and improve their diagnosis.

Objective:To understand the research ability, cognition, and training needs of clinical medical staff in a grade A tertiary hospital in Xinjiang and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods:A convenience sampling method was applied to survey the clinical medical staff of our hospital with a questionnaire including general information, a self-assessment scale of research ability, and a survey of research cognition and training needs. A total of 618 questionnaires were collected with 609 valid returned responses, resulting in an effective return rate of 98.54%. Univariate and multiple linear regression analysis were applied to analyze the influencing factors of the total score of clinical medical staff's research ability.Results:The total score of research ability of 609 clinical medical personnel was 60.73±13.59. The results of multiple linear regression showed that participation in scientific research conferences, enthusiasm for scientific research activities, and the need for scientific research training all had positive effects on the self-assessment of scientific research ability, which together explained 52% of the total variance (adjusted R2=0.520, P<0.001). The top three " very important" options for medical staff research training were data analysis, research design, and research topic selection. Conclusions:Medical staff research skills need to be improved and there is a strong need for research training. Managers should refine scientific research management initiatives and provide hierarchical and targeted scientific research training to improve the overall medical staff's scientific research literacy and research ability, thereby promoting the progress of medical care in hospitals.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of nail involvement in patients with pemphigus and the correlation between nail damage and the severity of pemphigus.Methods:The clinical data of 23 patients with pemphigus combined with nail damage admitted to the People′s Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from January 2011 to August 2019 were retrospectively analyzed, the manifestations of pemphigus combined with nail damage were summarized. The nail damage number of patients with pemphigus complicated with nail damage of different genders were analyzed, as well as the distribution of nail damage in nail and toenail. The titer of anti-desmocoglycoprotein(dsg) antibody was detected in all patients. The relationship between nail damage and disease severity and course in pemphigus patients was analyzed.Results:A total of 132 damage nails were found in 23 patients (14 males and 9 females) with pemphigus, including 66 nails in male, 66 nails in female, 82 nails and 50 toenails. There were 10 forms of nail damage, of which chronic paronychia was the most common. The number of damage nails between different genders in pemphigus patients was statistically significant (χ 2=9.183, P<0.001). The distribution of nail and toenail damage in pemphigus patients was statistically significant (χ 2=10.880, P<0.001). Of the 23 patients, only 3 were positive for dsg1 and 1 was positive for dsg3. There were 19 patients with both positive for dsg1 and dsg3. The titers of dsg1 and dsg3 were compared in 14 patients before and after nail damage. The results showed that the titers of anti-dsg antibody in pemphigus patients after nail damage were significantly higher than before. Thirteen of the 23 patients had nail damage at the time of the initial onset of pemphigus. The nail damage occurred from 6 weeks before the onset to 4 weeks after the onset. The nail damage occurred in 10 patients when the disease recurred. The nail damage occurred within 4 weeks before or at the same time with the blister. Conclusions:The number of damage nails per capita in female patients with pemphigus and nail damage was significantly higher than that in male patients, and nail damage was more common. The titers of anti-dsg antibody will be at a high level when pemphigus patients with nail damage, and the condition gets worse. Nail involvement is positive to the severity of the disease, and it can prolong the time of disease.

Hospitals should implement multi-level scientific research evaluation, form a dynamic evaluation system for scientific research, reasonably optimize and supervise the investment and utilization of scientific research resources, improve the scientific research management system, enhance the scientific research awareness of researchers, promote technological progress of researchers, and thereby improve scientific research efficiency.

Pruritus is one of the typical clinical manifestations of bullous pemphigoid (BP) . In recent years, researchers have gradually recognized that the histamine-independent itch pathway plays an important role in BP. Eosinophils, basophils, interleukin (IL) -31, IL-4, IL-13, thymic stromal lymphopoietin, periostin and substance P are all closely related to the occurrence of pruritus in BP. This review mainly elaborates research progress in mechanisms related to pruritus in BP.

Objective:To establish a xenograft model of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) in nude mice, and to explore mechanisms underlying synergistic induction and promotion of CSCC in nude mice by ultraviolet radiation and human papillomavirus (HPV) infection.Methods:The human CSCC A431 cells were divided into 3 groups, namely HPV16 E6 overexpression group (LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group) transfected with adenovirus-mediated HPV16 E6 gene, empty vector group transfected with empty adenovirus vectors, and blank control group remaining untransfected. Using serum-free Dulbecco′s modified Eagle′s medium (DMEM) , A431 cells in the empty vector group and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group were prepared into single-cell suspensions, which were subcutaneously inoculated into the left buttocks of SKH-1 nude mice separately, namely empty vector group ( n = 16) and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group ( n = 16) . Tumor growth was observed and recorded for the mice every 3 days. When the tumor size reached 150 mm 3, the modeling was considered successful. After successful modeling, 8 mice in each group were irradiated with ultraviolet light at a dose of 1 440 mJ·cm -2·d -1 for 12 minutes each time, the other 8 mice in each group received no ultraviolet radiation, that is to say, all the 32 mice were divided into 4 groups: empty vector group, empty vector + UV group, LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group, and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 + UV group. After 4-week radiation, these nude mice were sacrificed, tumor weight and volume were measured, a tumor growth curve was drawn, immunohistochemistry study, Western blot analysis and real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) were conducted to determine the protein and mRNA expression of Wnt1 and β-catenin in CSCC tissues collected from nude mice, respectively. For normally distributed measurement data, analysis of variance was used for intergroup comparisons, and least significant difference- t test for multiple comparisons; for non-normally distributed measurement data, rank sum test was used for intergroup comparisons. Results:Compared with the empty vector group (2.20 ± 0.24 g) , the tumor weight significantly increased in the empty vector + UV group (2.90 ± 0.36 g, t = 4.39, P < 0.001) , LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group (3.19 ± 0.32 g, t = 6.77, P < 0.001) , and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 + UV group (4.41 ± 0.18 g, t = 20.11, P < 0.001) ; the tumor volume was also significantly higher in the empty vector + UV group (1 033.12 ± 400.15 mm 3, t = 1.90, P < 0.001) , LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group (1 119.21 ± 447.57 mm 3, t = 2.21, P < 0.001) , and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 + UV group (1 464.29 ± 409.98 mm 3, t = 4.22, P < 0.001) than in the empty vector group (688.94 ± 319.31 mm 3) . Immunohistochemical study showed no significant difference in the protein expression of Wnt1 and β-catenin among the 4 groups ( F = 0.76, 0.71, respectively, both P > 0.05) ; Western blot analysis showed significant differences in the protein expression levels of Wnt1 and β-catenin among the 4 groups ( F = 16.74, 49.90, respectively, both P < 0.05) , which were significantly higher in the LV-OE-HPV16 E6 + UV group than in the empty vector group, empty vector + UV group and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group (all P < 0.05) . qRT-PCR showed a significant difference in the mRNA expression of Wnt1 and β-catenin among the 4 groups ( F = 7.77, 8.38, respectively, both P<0.05) , and the LV-OE-HPV16 E6 + UV group showed significantly increased Wnt1 mRNA expression levels compared with the empty vector group, empty vector + UV group and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group (all P < 0.05) . Conclusion:Ultraviolet radiation and HPV infection showed synergistic effect on the induction and promotion of CSCC.

Objective:To understand the cognition of research integrity of in-service medical staff in a tertiary hospital in Xinjiang, provide possible reference for research integrity training.Methods:In March 2021, an electronic questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate the knowledge of scientific research integrity of in-service medical staff in a tertiary hospital in Xinjiang. T test and analysis of variance were used for univariate analysis, and multiple linear regression was used for multivariate analysis.Results:550 valid questionnaires were collected in total, and the overall awareness rate of scientific research integrity of in-service medical staff was less than 60%. Univariate analysis showed that there were differences in cognitive score of scientific research integrity among medical staff who participating in different scientific research activities ( P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the educational level of the in-service medical staff, whether they participated in scientific research training, whether they had the qualifications of graduate student supervisor, the interaction between educational level and participation in scientific research training was statistically significant ( P<0.05). LSD test of educational level and participation in scientific research training showed that there was a statistically significant difference in educational level of participation in scientific research training ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The cognition of research integrity on in-service medical staff in a tertiary hospital in Xinjiang need to be enhanced, and their knowledge of research integrity need to be improved. Various measures should be carried out to strengthen the research integrity education and training, so as to improve the level of medical staff’s cognition of research integrity, and improve the medical staff’s attitudes of research integrity.
