ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy of Zuogui Pill （左归丸，ZGP） decoction on neurological function， motor function， and activities of daily living in patients with ischemic stroke （IS） of liver-kidney yin deficiency syndrome， and to assess its potential mechanisms from the perspectives of cerebral perfusion and corticospinal tract （CST） remodeling. MethodsA total of 108 patients with IS of liver-kidney yin deficiency syndrome and onset time ≤14 days were enrolled and randomly divided into a control group and a treatment group， with 54 cases in each group. The control group received conventional western medicine， while the treatment group received ZGP decoction （one dose per day） in addition to the conventional treatment. Both groups were treated for 90 days. The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale （NIHSS）， modified Rankin Scale （mRS）， modified Barthel Index （MBI）， Fugl-Meyer Assessment （FMA）， and Chinese medicine syndrome score （CMS） were evaluated before treatment and after （90±3） days of treatment. Three-dimensional arterial spin labeling （3D-ASL） and diffusion tensor imaging （DTI） were performed to obtain ipsilesional cerebral blood flow （CBF） in the unaffected and affected hemispheres， relative CBF （rCBF）， and fractional anisotropy （FA） of the CST. Nodal analysis of FA values along the CST was also conducted. Correlation analysis was used to assess the relationships between post-treatment cerebral perfusion parameters （CBF and rCBF）， and FA values with clinical neurological function scores. ResultsAfter treatment， both groups showed significantly decreased NIHSS， mRS and CMS scores， together with significantly increased FMA and MBI scores （P＜0.01）. Intergroup comparison showed that NIHSS， mRS， and CMS scores in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group ， while MBI and FMA scores were significantly higher （P＜0.01）. The 3D-ASL results revealed that CBF and rCBF values in the affected hemisphere significantly increased in both groups after treatment， and the treatment group had significantly higher values （P＜0.01）. DTI showed that the FA value of the CST on the affected side in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group after treatment （P＜0.05）. Nodal analysis along the CST further demonstrated that the continuity of FA values at lesion-related nodes 45~99 in the treatment group was significantly better than that in the control group （P＜0.01）， with significant increases at nodes 65~71 and 76~81 compared with baseline （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）， whereas the control group showed a decreasing trend at nodes 80~93 （P＜0.05）. Correlation analysis indicated that CBF and rCBF values in the affected hemisphere were negatively correlated with NIHSS and mRS scores and positively correlated with MBI score （P＜0.05）. FA value of the CST on the affected side， both before and after treatment， were negatively correlated with NIHSS score and positively correlated with FMA score （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. ConclusionZGP decoction can effectively improve neurological function， motor function， and activities of daily living in IS patients with liver-kidney yin deficiency syndrome， and its mechanism may be related to enhanced cerebral perfusion in the affected hemisphere and corticospinal tract structural remodeling.

Objective:To investigate the influential factors of lung function injury in occupational exposure workers in carbon industry.Methods:In January 2024, a judgment sampling method was employed, with 230 occupational exposure workers in the carbon industry as the study subjects. They were divided into abnormal group and normal group according to whether there was lung function injury in occupational health examination. The basic information of workers in carbon industry was collected by questionnaire, their lung function was measured, urine and blood samples were collected after work, and 1-hydroxypyrene, 1-hydroxynaphthalene and 2-hydroxynaphthalene concentrations and the percentage of DNA in the comet tail and Olive tail distance in peripheral blood lymphocytes were determined. The differences in indicators of lung function, urine and blood samples between the two groups were compared by Mann-Whitney test and t-test. The influencing factors of lung function injury were analyzed by logistic regression. Results:The forced vital capacity (FVC) %[88% (86%, 92%) ], forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV 1) %[92% (88%, 95%) ] and FEV 1.0/FVC%[96% (91%, 102%) ] of occupational exposure workers in the carbon industry in the normal lung function group ( n=118) were significantly higher than those in the abnormal lung function group [ n=112, 83% (80%, 87%), 84% (80%, 88%), 86% (79%, 91%) ], the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). 1-Hydroxypyrene[9.28 (2.96, 25.94) μg/g], 1-hydroxynaphthalene[2.48 (1.47, 4.37) μg/g], percentage of DNA in the comet tail [11.83% (5.30%, 21.45%) ] and Olive tail distance [2.30 (0.82, 4.77) μm] in the abnormal lung function workers was significantly higher than those in the normal group[2.57 (1.17, 9.34) μg/g, 1.70 (0.94, 2.89) μg/g, 6.75% (2.55%, 12.60%), 1.25 (0.43, 2.34) μm], and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that sex, working age, job type, percentage of comet tail DNA in peripheral blood, Olive tail distance and 1-hydroxypyrene were all factors influencing lung function injury in occupational exposure workers in carbon industry ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:The percentage of DNA in the comet tail, Olive tail distance in peripheral blood lymphocytes and 1-hydroxypyrene may be markers of lung function injury in workers exposed to carbon industry. Working age and job type are occupational factors affecting lung function injury. Occupational protection should be strengthened and a reasonable operating system should be established to ensure the health of occupational workers.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between ABO blood types and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) risk. METHODS: A prospective birth cohort study was conducted. ABO blood types were determined using the slide method. GDM diagnosis was based on a 75-g, 2-h oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) according to the criteria of the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups. Logistic regression was applied to calculate the odds ratios ( ORs) and 95% confidence intervals ( CIs) between ABO blood types and GDM risk. RESULTS: A total of 30,740 pregnant women with a mean age of 31.81 years were enrolled in this study. The ABO blood types distribution was: type O (30.99%), type A (26.58%), type B (32.20%), and type AB (10.23%). GDM was identified in 14.44% of participants. Using blood type O as a reference, GDM risk was not significantly higher for types A ( OR = 1.05) or B ( OR = 1.04). However, women with type AB had a 19% increased risk of GDM ( OR = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.05-1.34; P < 0.05), even after adjusting for various factors. This increased risk for type AB was consistent across subgroup and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION The ABO blood types may influence GDM risk, with type AB associated with a higher risk. Incorporating it-either as a single risk factor or in combination with other known factors-could help identify individuals at risk for GDM before or during early pregnancy.

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.
