BACKGROUND:A large number of articles have reported the effect and mechanism of platelet-rich plasma and hydrogel in the treatment of spinal cord injury,but few articles have summarized their treatment strategies for spinal cord injury. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the pathological process of spinal cord injury and the strategies of repairing spinal cord injury with platelet-rich plasma and hydrogel alone and in combination. METHODS:PubMed and CNKI databases were searched for articles published from inception to March 2024 by computer.The Chinese search terms were"spinal cord injury,platelet-rich plasma,hydrogel."The English search terms were"spinal cord injury,spinal cord,platelet-rich plasma,hydrogel,angiogenesis,neuralgia,combination therapy."Articles were screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria,and 128 articles were finally included for review and analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The classification of platelet-rich plasma is complex and diverse,and the effects of platelet-rich plasma in the repair treatment of spinal cord injury are various,but they all show certain positive effects,that is,they can promote axon regeneration,stimulate angiogenesis,and treat neuropathic pain and so on.(2)The effect of platelet-rich plasma is mainly due to the growth factors contained in platelet-rich plasma.(3)There are many types of hydrogels,which mainly play the role of filling,simulating extracellular matrix,carrying drugs and biological products,and carrying cells as scaffolds in the repair treatment of spinal cord injury.(4)Compared with single therapy,combination therapy of platelet-rich plasma and hydrogel can promote nerve regeneration and spinal cord function recovery more effectively.

Background:
Automated insulin delivery (AID) systems studies are upsurging, half of which were published in the last 5 years. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AID systems in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).
Methods:
We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.gov until August 31, 2023. Randomized clinical trials that compared AID systems with other insulin-based treatments in patients with T1DM were considered eligible. Studies characteristics and glycemic metrics was extracted by three researchers independently.
Results:
Sixty-five trials (3,623 patients) were included. The percentage of time in range (TIR) was 11.74% (95% confidence interval [CI], 9.37 to 14.12; P<0.001) higher with AID systems compared with control treatments. Patients on AID systems had more pronounced improvement of time below range when diabetes duration was more than 20 years (–1.80% vs. –0.86%, P=0.031) and baseline glycosylated hemoglobin lower than 7.5% (–1.93% vs. –0.87%, P=0.033). Dual-hormone full closed-loop systems revealed a greater improvement in TIR compared with hybrid closed-loop systems (–19.64% vs. –10.87%). Notably, glycemia risk index (GRI) (–3.74; 95% CI, –6.34 to –1.14; P<0.01) was also improved with AID therapy.
Conclusion
AID systems showed significant advantages compared to other insulin-based treatments in improving glucose control represented by TIR and GRI in patients with T1DM, with more favorable effect in euglycemia by dual-hormone full closedloop systems as well as less hypoglycemia for patients who are within target for glycemic control and have longer diabetes duration.

Hearing loss is the most prevalent disabling disease. Cochlear implantation(CI) serves as the primary intervention for severe to profound hearing loss. This consensus systematically explores the value of genetic diagnosis in the pre-operative assessment and efficacy prognosis for CI. Drawing upon domestic and international research and clinical experience, it proposes an evidence-based medicine three-tiered prognostic classification system(Favorable, Marginal, Poor). The consensus focuses on common hereditary non-syndromic hearing loss(such as that caused by mutations in genes like GJB2, SLC26A4, OTOF, LOXHD1) and syndromic hereditary hearing loss(such as Jervell & Lange-Nielsen syndrome and Waardenburg syndrome), which are closely associated with congenital hearing loss, analyzing the impact of their pathological mechanisms on CI outcomes. The consensus provides recommendations based on multiple round of expert discussion and voting. It emphasizes that genetic diagnosis can optimize patient selection, predict prognosis, guide post-operative rehabilitation, offer stratified management strategies for patients with different genotypes, and advance the application of precision medicine in the field of CI.

ObjectiveExploring the role of microRNA126 (miRNA126) in chronic kidney disease combined with atherosclerosis (CKD AS) by regulating the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway and the mechanism of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction in the intervention of CKD AS rats with 5/6 nephrectomy combined with high-fat feeding. MethodA total of 60 SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, model group, losartan group, and low, medium, and high dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction. The CKD AS rat model was established by 5/6 nephrectomy combined with high-fat feeding for 10 weeks. The low, medium, and high dose groups (6.0, 12.0, 24.0 g·kg-1·d-1) of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction and the losartan group (20 mg·kg-1·d-1) were gavaged, and the corresponding intervention was carried out for eight weeks. Then, the rats were killed, and samples were collected for corresponding detection. Fully automated biochemical analyzers were used to detect kidney function and blood lipids in rats: blood creatinine (SCr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and Masson staining of aortic tissue and pathological observation under a light microscope were carried out, and autophagosomes and autophagy lysosomes were observed by transmission electron microscopy. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was used to determine the mRNA levels of miRNA126, PI3K, Akt, and mTOR in rats, and Western blot was used to determine the protein expression levels of phosphorylated (p)-PI3K, PI3K, p-Akt, Akt, p -mTOR, mTOR, benzyl chloride 1 (Beclin-1), and microtubule-associated protein light chain 3Ⅱ/Ⅰ (LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ). ResultCompared with the sham operation group, the serum SCr, BUN, TC, TG, and LDL-C in the model group were significantly increased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the SCr, BUN, TC, TG, and LDL-C were decreased in the losartan group and low, medium, and high dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction (P<0.05). Compared with the sham operation group, thickening plaques, infiltration of mononuclear macrophages, a small number of foam cells, disordered arrangement of smooth muscle fibers in the tunica media, and increased collagen fibers were observed in the model group, and the lesions in the losartan group and Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction groups were alleviated compared with those in the model group. Compared with the model group, the number of autophagosomes and autophagy lysosomes increased in the medium and high dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction. Compared with the sham operation group, the expression of miRNA126 in the aortic tissue of the model group was significantly decreased (P<0.01), and the mRNA expressions of PI3K, Akt, and mTOR were significantly increased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the expression of miRNA126 in the aortic tissue of rats in high, medium, and low dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction and losartan group was significantly increased (P<0.01), while the mRNA expressions of PI3K, Akt, and mTOR were significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the sham operation group, the protein expressions of p-PI3K, PI3K, p-Akt, Akt, p-mTOR, and mTOR in the model group were significantly increased (P<0.01), while the protein levels of Beclin-1, LC3Ⅰ, and LC3Ⅱ were significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the protein expressions of p-PI3K, PI3K, p-Akt, Akt, p-mTOR, and mTOR in the losartan group and low, medium, and high dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction were decreased (P<0.05), while the protein levels of Beclin-1 and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ were increased (P<0.05). ConclusionThe expression of miRNA126 is decreased in the aortic tissue of CKD AS rats, and the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway is activated to inhibit autophagy flux. Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction regulates the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway through miRNA126, restores the autophagy of aortic endothelial cells, protects the damage of CKD vessels, reduces the formation of As plaques, and slows the development of cardiovascular complications.
