With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.

Poly amino acids are a class of polymers composed of α-amino acids as structural units linked by peptide bonds, exhibiting structural similarity to natural proteins. This class can be degraded into polypeptides, amino acids, and small molecules, demonstrating unique advantages in the field of bone repair. Various functionalized amino acid monomers and their polymerization methods have been developed, primarily including ring-opening polymerization, polycondensation, enzymatic catalysis, and solid-phase synthesis. These methods enable the polymerization of poly glutamic acid, poly lysine, poly aspartic acid, and others into polypeptides to meet the requirements for bone injury repair. However, as the number of amino acids increases and the polypeptide chains extend, molecular chains can form secondary structures such as α-helices and β-sheets through non-covalent interactions like hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. These structures play a decisive role in the bioactivity and functionality of poly(amino acid). Therefore, the function of poly(amino acid) is highly dependent on its monomer composition, sequence, secondary structure, and charge characteristics, allowing precise design to effectively regulate biological effects. Nevertheless, the major challenges in applying poly (amino acid) to bone defect repair remain unresolved, namely scalable production and long-term safety and efficacy. It is believed that, with interdisciplinary integration, a new generation of poly(amino acid) materials, combining excellent properties, bioactivity, and smart-responsive traits, is expected to advance bone repair strategies toward precision, personalization, and efficiency.

Objective:To evaluate the performance of three mainstream large language models (LLMs) in the review of drug reimbursement indications in hospitals, and to explore their potential in improving audit quality and efficiency, thereby safeguarding the medical insurance fund.Methods:A total of 3 247 outpatient prescription records were retrospectively collected from a specialized oncology hospital between January 2, 2022, and June 30, 2023. Manual assessment of the consistency between clinical diagnoses and drug reimbursement indications was used as the gold standard. Three LLMs, Baidu′s ERNIE Bot, Alibaba′s Tongyi Qianwen, and OpenAI′s ChatGPT-4o, were evaluated on the same task. Performance metrics included accuracy, precision, sensitivity, specificity, F1 score, and area under the curve (AUC).Results:The ERNIE Bot model returned 3 242 valid data, which took 314 min; The Tongyi Qianwen model returned a total of 3 162 valid data, taking 384 min; The ChatGPT-4o model returned a total of 3 218 valid data, taking 150 min. ChatGPT-4o demonstrated the best performance, with an accuracy of 88.41%, precision of 60.48%, sensitivity of 78.75%, specificity of 90.24%, F1 score of 0.68, and an AUC of 0.88.Conclusions:LLMs demonstrate stable performance in determining whether prescriptions align with reimbursement indications, with ChatGPT-4o approaching human-level accuracy and exhibiting more conservative specificity. These findings suggest that LLMs have practical value as auxiliary tools in drug indication reviews, contributing to improved audit efficiency and more refined management of medical insurance funds.

Objective:To investigate the changes in sympathetic nerve activity after lower limb immobilization and the role of sympathetic nerve in regulating disuse atrophy of skeletal muscles.Methods:The experiment was divided into the following 3 parts: ① Twelve 8-week-old male C57 mice were randomly divided into a blank control group and a hind limb fixation group ( n=6). The blank control group received no intervention while the hind limb fixation group received splint fixation of the hind limbs for 2 weeks before the musculoskeletal multi-dimensional characterization was completed at the behavioral, pathological and molecular levels. ② Thirty-six 8-week-old male C57 mice were selected and randomly divided into a control group and 5 hind limb fixation groups (for 1, 3, 5, 7 and 14 days) ( n=6). The control group was fed normally until 14 days without any intervention while the 5 hind limb fixation groups were sampled after fixation for 1, 3, 5, 7 and 14 days, respectively. The level of norepinephrine in the serum and the expression level of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), a marker of sympathetic nerve activity in the paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus (PVN), were detected to observe the plasticity of sympathetic nerve activity. ③ Eighteen 8-week-old male C57 mice were selected and randomly divided into a blank control group, a hind limb fixation group and a hind limb fixation plus medication group ( n=6). The blank control group received no intervention while the 2 fixation groups were injected with phosphate buffer (PBS) and propranolol hydrochloride solution for 2 consecutive weeks, respectively. The parameters related to the skeletal muscles were compared between the 3 groups. Results:① Compared with the control group, the mass and function of skeletal muscles in the hind limb fixation group were statistically significantly decreased ( P<0.05). ② The levels of serum norepinephrine [(3.27±1.03) ng/mL, (9.21±1.05) ng/mL, (6.36±0.88) ng/mL, (3.84±1.00) ng/mL, and (3.91±0.75) ng/mL] and the PVN TH levels (42.00%±5.38%, 61.67%±5.57%, 55.82%±3.11%, 50.90%±2.53%, and 39.17%±9.07%) in the 5 hind limb fixation groups (for 1, 3, 5, 7 and 14 days) were significantly higher than those in the control group [(1.81±0.72)] ng/mL and 23.33%±5.50%] ( P<0.05). ③ The wet weight of the gastrocnemius muscle [(93.50±4.32) mg] and the cross-section area of the tibial anterior muscle [(1,180.00±95.09) μm 2] in the hind limb fixation plus medication group were increased significantly compared with those in the hind limb fixation group [(80.83±9.99) mg and (907.80±121.00) μm 2] ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Overactivation of the sympathetic nervous system occurs in the mice model of skeletal muscle disuse atrophy after hind limb fixation. Inhibition of sympathetic nerve activity may reduce the severity of skeletal muscle atrophy at the lower limbs.
