As a key treatment method for end-stage liver diseases, long-term efficacy of liver transplantation is limited by rejection and serious complications such as liver and kidney toxicity, infection risks and tumor recurrence caused by immunosuppressive drugs. In recent years, nanotechnology, with its targeted delivery capabilities and spatio-temporal controlled release characteristics, has demonstrated great potential in precisely regulating immune responses. This article systematically reviews the multi-level application strategies and mechanisms of nanomedicine in the immunoreprogramming of liver transplantation, covering innate immunoreprogramming (phenotypic transformation of Kupffer cells or macrophages, inhibition of inflammasomes and mitochondrial repair), adaptive immune remodeling (targeted regulation of dendritic cells, gene silencing vectors and reprogramming of T cell functions), and elaborates on the strategies for coordinated regulation of the microenvironment. The article also focuses on the targeted application of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells. In response to clinical translation bottlenecks, innovative solutions such as the design of degradable polymer carriers, the construction of intelligent response systems and the optimization of large-scale production pathways are proposed, providing theoretical support and practical directions for achieving the paradigm shift from "global immunosuppression" to "precise immune tolerance".

Objective:To find out about the sentiment about the current physical training among Air Force pilots (cadets), propose methods for optimizing their programs of physical training, and to enhance the effectiveness of training in order to improve flight adaptability.Methods:A total of 1 135 pilots (cadets) were randomly selected as the subjects and divided into 3 groups according to types of aircraft and types of personnel: group A (pilots of fighters, bombers and advanced trainers), group B (pilots of fighter bombers, transporters, helicopters, special aircraft and junior trainers), and group C (flying cadets). A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect data on current physical training among pilots and flying cadets.Results:A total of 1 135 questionnaires were distributed, with 1 086 valid responses collected, yielding an effective response rate of 95.68%. Of the 1 086 participating pilots (cadets), 209 were in Group A, 499 in Group B, and 378 in Group C.There was statistically significant difference in the frequency and duration of weekly physical training between the 3 groups ( χ2=82.23, 61.56, both P<0.001). The proportion of participants engaging in >3 h weekly physical training sessions was significantly higher in group C (71.7%) than in group A (38.8%) and group B (44.9%). Significant differences were observed in weekly training durations between group C and group A (all P<0.05), as well as between group C and group B in the training durations of <3 h and 5-7 h (all P<0.05). The percentage of subjects who trained for 5-7 h per week was the highest in group C (41.5%). In groups A and B, pilots mostly trained for 3-<5 h per week (51.7% and 39.9%, respectively). The survey on the willingness to adjust training programs revealed statistically significant differences between the 3 groups in their willingness to engage in muscle strength training, coordination training, specific ability training, and adjustment of intensities of core training ( H=46.23, 16.12, 22.03, 60.68, all P<0.001). No significant difference was observed in their willingness to have aerobic training programs adjusted ( P>0.05). Group C was significantly different from groups A and B in their preference for adjustment in training programs related to muscle strength, coordination, specific abilities, and in core training programs (all P<0.01). Group C was mostly in favor of "increasing" muscle strength, coordination, and core training while opting for "no change" in aerobic training and specific ability training. Groups A and B preferred "no change". Regarding their willingness to have training intensities revised, statistically significant differences were observed between the 3 groups ( H=15.58, 19.08, 8.17, 58.01, P<0.001, <0.001, =0.017, <0.001), but no significant difference was found in their preference for adjustment of aerobic training intensities ( P>0.05). Group C showed much more preference for intensity adjustment related to muscle strength, coordination, specific abilities, and core training programs than groups A and B (all P<0.05 or 0.01). All the 3 groups predominantly favored "no change" in training intensities. Conclusions:Pilots of different aircraft types generally meet the requirements of the current physical training programs. However, the frequency of physical training for pilots (cadets) requires more rigorous supervision. Flying cadets can adaptively engage in targeted training programs. Pilots of fighters, fighter bombers and advanced trainers should care about the intensity of aerobic training while giving more weight to load resistance physical training. Pilots of other types of aircraft should devote more effort to core training programs.
4.Analysis of the nutritional status and influencing factors of Tibetan and Mongolian children and adolescents in Golmud City, Qinghai Province in 2022
Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(5):651-656
Objective:
To investigate the nutritional status and influencing factors among Tibetan and Mongolian children and adolescents aged 7-18 years in high-altitude regions, so as to provide evidence for early prevention and control of malnutrition in this population.
Methods:
From May to June 2022, a cluster sampling method was employed to recruit 1 019 Tibetan and Mongolian children and adolescents aged 7-18 years from two primary and secondary schools in Golmud City. Physical examinations, dietary frequency questionnaires, and physical activity assessments were conducted. Nutritional status was classified as obesity, combined overweight/obesity, underweight, or central obesity according to national standards including Screening for Overweight and Obesity among School-age Children and Adolescents, Screening Standard for Malnutrition of School-age Children and Adolescents, Blue Book on Obesity Prevention and Control in China. Chi-square tests, t-test and Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors associated with different nutritional statuses.
Results:
The detection rates of obesity, combined overweight/obesity, underweight, and central obesity were 8.0%, 18.1%, 5.2%, and 19.7%, respectively. The height of children and adolescents across all age groups was generally lower than the national standard values. Tibetan participants exhibited significantly lower height-for-age Z-scores (HAZ)(9-10, 13-17 years, Z =2.01, 2.78, 4.16, 3.38, 4.12, 3.63, 3.00) and BMI-for-age Z-scores (BAZ) compared to Mongolian participants ( Z =-2.95, -2.47, -2.31, -2.89, -2.14, -2.17)( P < 0.05 ). Multivariate Logistic regression revealed that Mongolian children and adolescents had higher risks of obesity ( OR =2.20) and combined overweight/obesity ( OR = 2.18 ) ( P <0.05). Additionally, insufficient moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) was associated with an increased risk of central obesity ( OR =1.48, P <0.05), compared with children and adolescents who meet the standard of MVPA.
Conclusions
The rates of overweight and obesity among Tibetan and Mongolian children and adolescents in Golmud City are higher, influenced by multiple factors. Nutrition interventions and physical activity strategies tailored to ethnic characteristics should be implemented, with emphasis on promoting MVPA to improve nutritional outcomes in this population.

Nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF), predominantly affecting the elderly, can lead to intractable pain, vertebral collapse, progressive kyphotic deformity, and neurological impairment, significantly compromising patients′ quality of life. There exists considerable debate on diagnosis and management of OVF, encompassing key issues such as clinical diagnosis and staging criteria for nonunion, surgical indications and procedure selection, and postoperative rehabilitation planning. Currently, there lacks standardized clinical guideline and expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of OVF nonunion in China. To address this gap, Minimally Invasive Surgery Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Osteoporosis Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Prevention and Rehabilitation Committee for Osteoporosis of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery Branch of China Association for Geriatric Care jointly organized domestic experts in spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rehabilitation to formulate the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures ( version 2025), based on existing literature and clinical experience and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and practicality. The guideline provided 13 evidence-based recommendations encompassing diagnosis and treatment of OVF nonunion, aiming to standardize its clinical management.

Objective:To evaluate the outcomes of stroke treatment in neurology and rehabilitation departments using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health′s Rehabilitation Set (ICF-RS).Method:The functional status of stroke survivors before and after treatment in the neurology and rehabilitation departments was evaluated using the ICF-RS (30 items). Each patient′s functioning was graded (normal, mild, moderate or severe dysfunction) by an experienced clinical evaluator and also by the intelligent evaluation model in the ICF-RS app. Medical expenditure data during hospitalization were extracted from the hospital′s case records. Rank sum tests compared the functional changes in a patient before and after their rehabilitation. Kappa coefficients were computed to evaluate the consistency of the functional grades assigned by the evaluators and the app.Results:Before the rehabilitation treatment, all 30 items of the ICF-RS were abnormal for all of the patients from the neurology and rehabilitation departments. After their rehabilitation treatment, 25 items had improved significantly for the neurology patients and 8 had improved significantly for those from the rehabilitation department. After their rehabilitation treatment, the average functional improvement among the neurology patients was 25%. For the rehabilitation patients it was 13%. The total expenditure for every 1% improvement in function was Y977 for the neurology patients (including Y143 for rehabilitation) and Y1, 481 for the rehabilitation patients (including Y862 of actual rehabilitation). The proportions of rehabilitation expenditure were thus 14% and 58% respectively. The kappa coefficients quantifying overall consistency were both greater than 0.8.Conclusion:The national standard ICF-RS can be used to evaluate functional changes, rehabilitation efficacy and the composition of stroke patients′ medical expenditures in the early stage of neurology and the recovery period in the rehabilitation department. The consistency of the functional level evaluations between the app and human evaluators is good.
