Numerous techniques for C2 screw fixation have been recently reported. However, concerns remain regarding the risk of spinal cord or vertebral artery injury and inadequate biomechanical stability. To our knowledge, the specific transforaminal “in-out-in” screw fixation technique has not been previously reported. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility and preliminary clinical outcomes of a transforaminal “in-out-in” multi-cortical purchase screw for posterior C2 screw fixation. Between October 2022 and March 2023, 10 patients underwent posterior atlantoaxial internal fixation. All patients had severe hypoplasia of the C2 pedicle on at least one side, precluding the use of standard C2 pedicle screws. A transforaminal “in-out-in” screw was used as an alternative. No spinal cord injury, vascular injury, or other major complications were observed. No implant failure was noted at the final follow-up. In conclusion, the transforaminal “in-out-in” screw may achieve rigid three-column fixation with multiple cortical purchases. It represents a safe and effective alternative for posterior C2 fixation in patients with severely narrow C2 pedicles where traditional pedicle screw placement is not feasible.

ObjectiveTo investigate the current awareness and optimization recommendations on pneumonia with unknown etiology (PUE) surveillance among Shanghai healthcare professionals, and to provide evidence for the improvement of the surveillance system. MethodsIn December 2024, healthcare professional participants from diverse medical and health institutions were randomly selected within each stratum using a stratified cluster sampling method in all 16 districts of Shanghai for questionnaire surveys on their knowledge and suggestions for optimization of the PUE surveillance system. Descriptive statistics analyses, multivariate logistic regressions, and content analyses were used for data analyses. ResultsA total of 385 survey subjects were involved in the study, including 119 professional staffs from disease prevention and control centers and 266 from medical institutions. Those who understood the case definition for PUE correctly accounted for 67.01% (258/385). Multivariate regression model analyses showed that female gender (aOR=2.22, 95%CI: 1.36‒3.66), professionals from disease control institutions (aOR=2.02, 95%CI: 1.12‒3.72), and those who self-assessed as being familiar with the monitoring system (aOR=2.18, 95%CI:1.23‒3.89) had better understanding of the definition. Overall, 89.61% (345/385) of the survey subjects acknowledged the necessity of the surveillance system. Small number of cases meeting the case definition (54.46%, 214/379), insufficient diagnostic awareness (39.84%, 151/379), and lack of incentives for case reporting (29.29%, 111/379) were major problems for the current surveillance system, with variations observed across different types of institutions. Suggested segments for optimizing the surveillance system included monitoring purpose, case definition, form of monitoring and reporting procedure, organization mechanism, and epidemiological investigation and response. ConclusionThe necessity of PUE surveillance is commonly recognized among healthcare workers. However, the existing system falls short in terms of mastery of case definition and overall surveillance adaptability. There is an urgent need for optimization and improvement to enhance the capacity for preventing and controlling emerging and sudden respiratory infectious diseases.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Yishen Jiangtang decoction combined with conventional Western medicine treatment in managing stage G3A3 diabetic kidney disease （DKD） in the patients with the pattern of Qi-Yin deficiency combined with dampness-heat and blood stasis， and to explore its mechanism of inhibiting the endoplasmic reticulum stress （ERS）-apoptosis axis and delaying renal fibrosis （RF）. MethodsA single-center， randomized， parallel-controlled clinical trial was conducted. A total of 78 patients diagnosed with stage G3A3 DKD and traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） pattern of Qi-Yin deficiency combined with dampness-heat and blood stasis and treated in the Department of Nephrology and the Department of Endocrinology of the People's Hospital Affiliated to Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from March 2025 to February 2026 were enrolled. They were randomly assigned at a 1∶1 ratio into a control group （conventional Western medicine treatment） and an experimental group （Yishen Jiangtang decoction combined with conventional Western medicine treatment）， with 39 patients in each group. The treatment lasted for 12 weeks. Basic demographic data and medical history were collected before and after treatment. The two groups before and after treatment were compared in terms of the following parameters： Blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， serum creatinine （SCr）， estimated glomerular filtration rate （eGFR）， urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio （UACR）， fasting blood glucose （FBG）， triglycerides （TG）， total cholesterol （TC）， and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C）. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） kits were used to measure serum glucose-regulated protein 78 （GRP78）， serum cysteinyl aspartate-specific protease-3 （Caspase-3）， and serum and urinary transforming growth factor-β₁ （TGF-β₁） levels before and after treatment. TCM symptom scores， TCM syndrome efficacy， and overall clinical efficacy were evaluated before and after treatment. Spearman correlation analysis was performed to explore the correlations of serum levels of GRP78 and Caspase-3， as well as serum and urinary levels of TGF-β1， with renal function， proteinuria， and glucose and lipid metabolism indicators in patients with DKD. In addition， safety indicators were also monitored. ResultsA total of 75 patients completed the study （38 in the control group and 37 in the experimental group）. ① Baseline data： The two groups were comparable in terms of sex and age， with no statistically significant difference. ② Efficacy outcomes： Compared with baseline levels， both groups showed reductions in BUN， SCr， UACR， FBG， TG， TC， LDL-C， and TCM symptom scores （P<0.01） and increases in eGFR level （P<0.01）. Moreover， the experimental group outperformed the control group in altering the indicators above （P<0.05）. Regarding TCM syndrome efficacy， the total response rate in the experimental group was 83.78%， which was higher than that （57.89%） in the control group （P<0.05）. Regarding overall clinical efficacy， the total response rate in the experimental group was 78.38%， which was higher than that （50.00%） in the control group （P<0.05）. ③ Mechanism outcomes： Compared with baseline levels， both groups showed declined serum levels of GRP78， Caspase-3， and TGF-β₁ and urinary level of TGF-β₁ after treatment （P<0.01）. Moreover， the experimental group showed greater declines than the control group （P<0.05）. The serum levels of GRP78， Caspase-3，and TGF-β₁ and the urinary level of TGF-β₁ in DKD patients showed positive correlations with BUN， SCr， UACR， and FBG and negative correlations with eGFR （P<0.05）. ④ Safety outcomes： Neither group showed drug-related adverse reactions， and laboratory safety parameters remained within normal ranges. ConclusionYishen Jiangtang decoction combined with conventional Western medicine treatment may safely and effectively alleviate clinical symptoms， correct glucose and lipid metabolism disorders， and protect the renal function in patients with stage G3A3 DKD and the pattern of Qi-Yin deficiency combined with dampness-heat and blood stasis. The mechanism may be associated with inhibition of the ERS-apoptosis axis and delay of the RF process.

Alzheimer's disease （AD） is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by amyloid-β （Aβ） plaque deposition， neurofibrillary tangle （NFT） formation， and chronic neuroinflammation. Its global incidence and mortality continue to rise， yet effective curative therapies remain unavailable. In recent years， dysregulated cholesterol metabolism and immune-inflammatory responses have been increasingly recognized as key drivers of AD pathological progression. Both clinical and experimental studies have shown that patients with AD exhibit disrupted cholesterol homeostasis and aberrant T-cell function， with a significant correlation between these alterations， suggesting that cholesterol metabolic disturbances may participate in and amplify neuroinflammatory responses by modulating T-cell differentiation and activation states. This review systematically delineates the coupling relationship among cholesterol homeostasis imbalance， T-cell abnormalities， AD neuroinflammation， and related pathological injury. Specifically， we summarize the immunometabolic pathological links spanning the peripheral and central compartments， ranging from the effects of peripheral cholesterol metabolic disturbances on T-cell activation， differentiation， and blood-brain barrier permeability to the regulatory role of impaired brain cholesterol homeostasis in infiltrating T-cell inflammatory responses， glial activation， and neural microenvironment remodeling. We further highlight how abnormalities in cholesterol synthesis， transport， efflux， and oxidative product accumulation promote Th17/Treg imbalance， enhanced CD8⁺ T-cell effector activity， increased inflammatory cytokine release， as well as Aβ deposition， blood-brain barrier disruption， glial activation， and neuronal injury. In addition， we review recent progress in natural herbal formulas and bioactive phytochemicals that alleviate T-cell abnormalities and neuroinflammation through restoration of cholesterol homeostasis. Taken together， current evidence suggests that cholesterol homeostasis imbalance is not only a fundamental metabolic abnormality in AD， but may also construct and amplify AD neuroinflammation and related pathological injury by reshaping T-cell immunophenotypes. Therefore， immunometabolic intervention strategies aimed at restoring cholesterol homeostasis may provide a new theoretical basis for mechanistic studies and multi-target prevention and treatment of AD.

Tumor angiogenesis is a core pathological driver of malignant growth, invasion, and metastasis, and represents a major obstacle to effective anticancer therapy. Conventional antiangiogenic agents, including neutralizing monoclonal antibodies and small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors, are constrained by drug resistance, on-target toxicity, and the compensatory activation of alternative pro-angiogenic pathways. Targeted protein degradation (TPD) has emerged as a promising strategy that may overcome these limitations. Unlike traditional inhibitors that operate through an occupancy-driven mechanism, degraders function through an event-driven catalytic mechanism in which a single degrader molecule can catalytically promote the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal or lysosomal degradation of multiple molecules of the same target protein, thereby eliminating the target protein together with all of its functions rather than merely blocking a single active site. This review systematically delineates the pathophysiological basis of tumor angiogenesis, encompassing the angiogenic switch driven by hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), the aberrant structural and functional features of the tumor vasculature, and the self-reinforcing vicious cycles that sustain malignant progression. We then categorize the principal TPD modalities, with particular emphasis on proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) and lysosome-targeting chimeras (LYTACs), and describe their design principles and mechanisms of action. PROTACs recruit E3 ubiquitin ligases to direct intracellular targets to the ubiquitin-proteasome system for degradation, whereas LYTACs engage lysosome-targeting receptors to route extracellular and membrane proteins to the lysosome, thereby expanding the degradable target space beyond the intracellular proteome. We further summarize recent advances in the application of TPD to antiangiogenic intervention at four distinct levels. First, at the signaling initiation level, degradation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptor vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) by aptamer-engineered PROTACs, antibody-based LYTACs, and small-molecule VEGFR2 degraders blocks the upstream trigger of the angiogenic cascade. Second, at the signal transduction level, degradation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK), B-Raf proto-oncogene serine/threonine kinase (BRAF), phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4), and bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) interrupts intracellular signaling cascades and transcriptional responses. Third, at the microenvironment level, degradation of proviral integration site for Moloney murine leukemia virus (PIM) kinases curtails the pro-angiogenic signals secreted by tumor-associated macrophages. Fourth, multi-target synergistic strategies, exemplified by bispecific degraders that simultaneously target human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and VEGF-A, represent a preliminary exploration of cooperative intervention. Representative degraders reviewed herein elicit diverse antiangiogenic phenotypes, ranging from the direct inhibition of endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and tube formation to reductions in microvessel density and the suppression of vasculogenic mimicry. Finally, we discuss the major challenges that remain, including the precise matching of degradation kinetics with the vascular normalization window, target selectivity and tissue specificity, and the activation of compensatory networks and the emergence of resistance. Since the application of TPD in this setting remains at an early stage, the clinical translation of these approaches will require careful optimization of degradation efficiency, spatiotemporal control, and delivery strategies. We also envision future directions toward immunotherapy-based combination regimens and precision-degradation approaches guided by single-cell and spatial transcriptomics. In our view, TPD should not be regarded merely as a substitute for conventional antiangiogenic drugs, but rather as a molecular tool capable of systematically remodeling the tumor vascular microenvironment. When precise control of degradation efficiency and spatiotemporal regulation are integrated with a thorough understanding of the heterogeneity and compensatory capacity of tumor vessels, the full clinical potential of this strategy can be realized.

ObjectiveTo investigate the contamination status of ochratoxin A (OTA) in commercially available food products in Shanghai, and to assess OTA exposure levels and the associated non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risks among pregnant women by integrating dietary consumption data of this population. MethodsThe levels of OTA contamination in 1 520 food samples collected in Shanghai from 2022 to 2023 were determined using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. An exposure assessment model was developed based on the dietary consumption levels of pregnant women from the 2016‒2017 Shanghai Pregnant Women Dietary Monitoring Survey to calculate the estimated daily intake (EDI) of OTA, the margin of exposure for non-carcinogenic toxicity (MOE₁), and the margin of exposure for carcinogenic toxicity (MOE₂). An MOE₁ greater than 200 and an MOE₂ greater than 10 000 indicate that the non-carcinogenic toxicity and carcinogenic toxicity resulting from exposure are negligible, respectively. For samples with OTA contamination levels below the limit of detection (LOD), which accounted for more than 80% of the samples, the OTA levels were assigned values of 0 and LOD, respectively, for subsequent calculations. ResultsThe detection rates of OTA in cereals, nuts, dried fruits, and alcohol samples collected in 2022 were 2.03%, 0, 0, and 0, respectively. The OTA detection rates in cereals, nuts, dried fruits, beans, and alcohol samples collected in 2023 were 2.50%, 0.39%, 2.47%, 1.67%, and 13.33%, respectively. For pregnant women in Shanghai in 2022, simulation results indicated that when assigning a value of 0 and the LOD, theP₅₀ values of EDI for dietary OTA exposure were 0.05 and 0.72 ng·(kg·d)^-1, respectively, and the P₉₅ values of EDI for dietary OTA exposure were 0.25 and 2.40 ng·(kg·d)^-1, respectively. For pregnant women in Shanghai in 2023, the P₅₀ values of EDI for dietary OTA exposure were 0.04 and 1.00 ng·(kg·d)^-1, respectively, and the P₉₅ values of EDI for dietary OTA exposure were 0.23 and 2.67 ng·(kg·d)^-1, respectively, both substantially below the tolerable daily intake (TDI) for OTA [17 ng·(kg·d)^-1]. The EDI for dietary OTA exposure in 100.0% of Shanghai pregnant women was lower than the TDI, indicating an overall low level of dietary OTA exposure among this population. For 100.0% of pregnant women, the MOE₁ for dietary OTA exposure exceeded 200. When assigned a value of 0, the MOE₂ for 100.0% of pregnant women in both 2022 and 2023 exceeded10 000. When assigned the LOD value, 72.3% and 81.8% of pregnant women in 2022 and 2023, respectively, had an MOE₂ exceeding 10 000. ConclusionFrom 2022 to 2023, samples of cereals, nuts, dried fruits, beans, and alcohol sold in Shanghai exhibited varying degrees of OTA contamination. The overall EDI of OTA exposure among pregnant women in Shanghai remained at a low level. The non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risks associated with OTA exposure were generally low and at controllable levels.

BACKGROUND:Prolyl hydroxylase domain 2(PHD2)inhibitors can regulate bone metabolism and relieve osteoporosis in ovariectomized rats.cpd17 is a small molecule oral PHD2 inhibitor newly developed by China Pharmaceutical University.It is effective in the treatment of renal anemia with few side effects,but its effect on bone formation and bone resorption is still unclear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of cpd17 on mouse osteogenic precursor cells. METHODS:Osteogenic precursor cells were treated with cpd17.Alkaline phosphatase activity and extracellular matrix mineralization were measured,and the expression levels of osteogenesis-and osteoclastogenesis-related markers,as well as PHD2 and hypoxia-inducible factor 1α,were detected.After inhibition of the hypoxia-inducible factor 1α pathway using LW6(a hypoxia-inducible factor 1α pathway inhibitor),alkaline phosphatase activity and extracellular matrix mineralization were detected again,as well as the expression levels of osteogenesis-and osteoclastogenesis-related markers,PHD2 and hypoxia-inducible factor 1α. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:cpd17 significantly enhanced alkaline phosphatase activity and extracellular matrix mineralization,up-regulated the expression of osteogenesis-related markers,down-regulated the expression of osteoclastogenesis-related markers,up-regulated the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α,down-regulate the expression of PHD2.However,cpd17's effects were significantly attenuated by LW6.To conclude,the PHD2 inhibitor cpd17 promotes osteogenic differentiation and inhibits osteoclastic differentiation through activation of the hypoxia-inducible factor 1α signaling pathway.

ObjectiveTo systematically analyze the global policy framework, standard systems and application technology models of digital rehabilitation within the framework of the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Digital Health Strategy and propose policy recommendations for the future development of digital rehabilitation. MethodsBased on the policies on digital health and rehabilitation development issued by the WHO, focusing on the Global Digital Health Strategy, Rehabilitation 2030 Initiative, Rehabilitation in Health Systems, Rehabilitation in Health Systems: A Guide for Action, and World Report on Disability, a systematic review was conducted, to explore the policy architecture and core content of digital rehabilitation, the standard system for digitalizing rehabilitation, and key technological models for the development of digital rehabilitation. ResultsIn the context of global health and digital transformation, the development of digital rehabilitation services was an essential component of the global digital health strategy. Building a comprehensive policy framework and content system for digital rehabilitation was critical for strengthening rehabilitation data governance, enhancing data utilization efficiency, and ensuring data privacy and security. Empowering rehabilitation with digital technology was vital for improving the standardization, effectiveness, coverage, quality and safety of rehabilitation services. International digital rehabilitation policies primarily involved the following areas: policy and governance, digital standard systems, data privacy, security and ethics, digital talent cultivation and capacity building, and monitoring, evaluation and continuous improvement of digitally empowered rehabilitation services. The standard system for rehabilitation digitization covered the three major reference classifications of the WHO Family of International Classifications, including International Classification of Diseases Eleventh Revision (ICD-11), International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), and International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI), especially ICF. It also included international data interoperability standards, data security and privacy protection standards, data quality and certification standards, and health information standards, etc. The application technology models of digital rehabilitation primarily included data-driven service models, artificial intelligence -enabled models, and remote rehabilitation models combined with virtual reality, augmented reality technologies, and Internet of Things support. ConclusionThe establishment and implementation of comprehensive policies, standards and technological models for digital rehabilitation are crucial for driving the digital transformation and development of global rehabilitation services. Under the framework of the WHO Global Digital Health Strategy, it is necessary to build adaptive digital rehabilitation policy frameworks, and enhance digital governance capabilities and levels, establishing and improving digital rehabilitation standard systems, and promoting the interoperability and integration of rehabilitation data with other health big data. Meanwhile, it is essential to actively develop data-driven technological models for rehabilitation services to comprehensively improve the accessibility, availability, quality and safety of rehabilitation services.

Objective This study aims to investigate controversial cases of forensic clinical re-identification of fractures,exploring the characteristics,causes,and countermeasures related to identification errors in primary bone injuries,complications,and subsequent changes.The goal is to provide identification strategies for similar cases regarding the collection of identification materials,timing,and examination method selection,ultimately establishing a paradigm for such identifications.Methods A total of 103 cases of clinical re-identification of fractures accepted by the West China Forensic Identification Center from 2020 to 2024 were collected,and the data from initial identifications and re-identifications were retrospectively analyzed.Results Male cases accounted for 69.90%of the re-identifications,with disability grade(67.96%)and injury degree(30.10%)being the primary concerns.Individual requests represented a high proportion(92.86%)in the initial assessment of disability levels,while unit or joint requests dominated the re-assessment(92.86%).The agreement rates for disability grade and injury degree were 55.26%and 59.38%,respectively.The reassessment of disability grades primarily involved fractures of limb long bones,spine,and ribs,with 75.53%of opinions resulting in downgraded disability levels.Rib,orbital,and nasal bone fractures were the main focus in injury degree reassessments,with 84.62%of opinions indicating aggravated injuries.The consistency rates for fracture identification in disability grade assessments was 92.21%,while rates for injury degree and sequelae were 65.63%and 48.94%,respectively.Inconsistencies in identifying damage facts—including the presence of fractures,distinguishing between fresh and old fractures,and determining the nature of fractures and sequelae—were primarily noted in rib,orbital,and nasal bone fractures.The utilization rate of CT metadata in initial evaluations(25.00%)was significantly lower than in re-evaluations(95.00%).The identification time for joint mobility dysfunction after fracture in re-identifications was significantly longer than in initial identifications(P=0.0002),and the identification time for cases with agreement was significantly shorter than for cases with disagreement(P=0.036).Conclusion Image data type and identification timing are critical factors that may influence the accuracy and consistency of forensic clinical identification of bone injuries.When necessary,dynamic CT metadata in conjunction with image post-processing technology can be routinely employed to identify fractures of the ribs,orbital bones,or nasal bones,thereby reducing the risk of misidentification.
