For middle-aged and elderly patients with conditions such as spinal fractures and degenerative spinal diseases, spinal internal fixation is a core surgical procedure for reconstructing spinal stability, heavily relying on the biomechanical stability provided by pedicle screw systems. Whereas, these patients are often complicated by osteoporosis that can significantly compromise the stability of the bone-pedicle screw interface, leading to a marked increase in pedicle screw loosening and surgical failure rates. The bone cement-augmented pedicle screw technique, which involves injecting bone cement into the vertebral body or screw trajectory to optimize the mechanical properties of the bone-pedicle screw composite, has been proven to significantly enhance fixation strength and effectively prevent screw-related failures, thereby reducing the incidence of internal fixation failure in high-risk populations undergoing spinal fusion. However, the widespread clinical application of this technique has faced challenges such as inaccurate clinical decision-making (indication and contraindication selection), non-standardized operative practices, and insufficient awareness of complication prevention, resulting in considerable variability in clinical outcomes and even severe complications. To address this, Prof. Luo Fei from First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University initiated the project and the Chinese Association Orthopaedic Surgeons organized relevant experts to develop the Evidence-based clinical practice guideline for bone cement-augmented pedicle screw technique ( version 2025), based on current evidence. The guidelines put forward 8 recommendations regarding the clinical value, scope of application, and operational standards of the technique, aiming to provide evidence-based medical support and technical standardization for clinical decision-making.

ObjectiveTo observe the analgesic efficacy and safety of Qihuang acupuncture theory combined with opioid analgesics in patients with moderate to severe cancer pain due to lung cancer. MethodsPatients with moderate to severe cancer pain from lung cancer were randomly divided into Qihuang acupuncture group and control group， with 33 cases in each group. The control group was treated with long-acting opioid analgesics at maintenance doses and supplementary analgesic medications as needed. In case of breakthrough pain， short-acting opioids were used for rescue. The Qihuang acupuncture group received Qihuang acupuncture treatment in addition to the treatment used in the control group， administered once every other day， with 3 sessions constituting one treatment course. The treatment duration for both groups was 5 days. The primary outcome was the change in pain intensity， measured using the numerical rating scale （NRS） before and after treatment， and the NRS change rate was calculated. Secondary endpoints included the daily NRS change rate， the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group （ECOG） Performance Status （PS） score， the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Core Questionnaire （EORTC QLQ-C30） score， and the 24-hour equivalent hydrocodone sustained-release tablet dose. Laboratory tests， including routine blood， urine， stool， liver function， and kidney function， were performed before and after treatment. Adverse events were recorded throughout the trial. ResultsAll patients completed the trial， and both groups showed a decrease in average NRS scores and PS scores after treatment， with the Qihuang acupuncture group showing lower average NRS scores and PS scores than the control group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. After treatment， the NRS change rate in the Qihuang acupuncture group was （0.42±0.17）， significantly higher than that in the control group （0.14±0.27， P＜0.01）. The daily NRS change rate during treatment was also higher in the Qihuang acupuncture group compared to the control group （P＜0.01）. The Qihuang acupuncture group showed an increase in overall health status and functional scores in the EORTC QLQ-C30， and a decrease in symptom scores for fatigue， nausea and vomiting， pain， dyspnea， insomnia， appetite loss， constipation， and financial difficulties. In contrast， overall health status and constipation scores in the control group increased， while scores of fatigue， nausea and vomiting， pain， and appetite loss decreased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. After treatment， the 24-hour equivalent hydrocodone sustained-release tablet dose did not show significant difference in the Qihuang acupuncture group （P＞0.05）， while the control group showed a significant increase in the 24-hour dose （P＜0.01）. No significant abnormalities were observed in laboratory tests before and after treatment in either group. During the study， the incidence of nausea and vomiting as well as constipation in the Qihuang acupuncture group was both 3.03% （1/33）， while the incidence in the control group was 27.27% （9/33） and 36.36% （12/33）， respectively， with the Qihuang acupuncture group showing significantly lower incidence （P＜0.01）. No serious adverse reactions were observed in either group. ConclusionQihuang acupuncture therapy combined with opioid analgesics is more effective than using opioids alone in relieving pain in patients with moderate to severe cancer pain due to lung cancer. It can improve the patients' physical condition and quality of life， reduce the dose of opioid analgesics， and has good safety.

Objective To apply PDCA(plan,do,check and action)cycle to optimize management and shorten the turnaround time(TAT)of five sex hormone tests for improving clinical efficiency and patient satisfaction.Methods A PDCA management team was established to retrospectively analyze the current status of sex hormone TAT in 2021.In 2022,PDCA tools were utilized,including fishbone diagrams for cause analysis,Pareto charts for root cause identification,formulation and implementation of corresponding im-provement measures and monitoring of TAT changes before and after PDCA.Results Through the corrective measures,such as staff personnel training,increasing testing equipment,optimization process and other improvement measures,the median TAT of sex hor-mone samples in 2022(post-PDCA improvement)was 54 minutes which was significantly lower than 61 minutes in 2021(pre-PDCA)(P＜0.05).Conclusion PDCA cycle management effectively shortened the TAT of sex hormone samples,enhanced clinical diagnostic efficiency and patient experience,improved doctor-patient relationships,while also elevated the quality management standards of labo-ratories.

Objective:To explore the relationship between the expressions of P21,P27 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)in glomerular mesangial tissue and poor renal prognosis in patients with immunoglobulin A(IgA)nephropathy.Methods:A total of 145 patients with IgA nephropathy treated in Xiaogan Central Hospital from April 2017 to August 2019 were selected as the research object.The expressions of P21,P27 and PCNA in glomerular mesangial tissue were detected by immunohistochemistry.All patients were followed up for 24 months,and the prognosis were counted.The expressions of P21,P27 and PCNA in glomerular mesangial tissue of patients with different prognosis were compared and the influencing factors of poor prognosis in patients with IgA nephropathy were analyzed by Logistic regression analysis.Results:The expression rates of P21,P27 and PCNA positive cells in glomerular mesangial tissue of patients with IgA nephropathy were(38.69±6.83)%,(55.94±8.08)%,(33.47±5.72)%,respectively.The incidence rete of poor prognosis in patients with IgA nephropathy was 17.24%,and the expression rates of P21 and PCNA positive cells in glomerular mesangial tissue of patients with poor prognosis were higher than those in good prognosis group(P<0.05),while the expression rate of P27 positive cells was lower than that in good prognosis group(P<0.05).Logistic multiple regression analysis showed that elevated diastolic blood pressure,increased 24 h proteinuria,mesangial cell proliferation,segmental glomerulosclerosis,renal tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis,crescentic body,increased expression rates of P21 and PCNA positive cells and decreased expression rate of P27 positive cells were all risk factors affecting the poor prognosis of patients with IgA nephropathy(P<0.05).Conclusion:There are positive expressions of P21,P27 and PCNA in glomerular mesangial tissue of IgA nephropathy.The expression rates of P21 and PCNA positive cells in glomerular mesangial tissue of of patients with poor prognosis of IgA nephropathy are higher than those with good prognosis,while the expression rate of P27 protein positive cells is lower than those with good prognosis,which are risk factors for poor prognosis of patients with IgA nephropathy.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of IA regimen which contains idarubicin (IDA) 8 mg/m², 10 mg/m² or 12 mg/m² as induction chemotherapy for adult patients with de-novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) . Methods: A total of 1 215 newly diagnosed adult AML patients, ranging from May 2011 to March 2015 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and other 36 clinical blood centers in China were enrolled in the multicenter, single-blind, non-randomized, clinical controlled study. To compare the response rate of complete remission (CR) , adverse events between different dose idarubicin combined with cytarabine (100 mg/m²) as induction chemotherapy in newly diagnosed patients of adult AML. Results: Of 1 207 evaluable AML patients were assigned to this analysis of CR rate. The CR rates of IDA 8 mg/m² group, IDA 10 mg/m² group and IDA 12 mg/m² group were 73.6% (215/292) , 84.1% (662/787) and 86.7% (111/128) , respectively (P<0.001) . After adjusted for age, blast ratio of bone marrow, FAB classification and risk stratification, the odds ratios (95% CI) of IDA 10 mg/m² group and IDA 12 mg/m² group were 0.49 (0.34-0.70) and 0.36 (0.18-0.71) , as compared with the IDA 8 mg/m² group (P<0.001, P=0.003) . In the intermediate and favorable groups, CR rates was 76.5% (163/213) , 86.9% (506/582) and 86.1% (68/79) in different doses of IDA (P=0.007) . Interestingly, IA regimen with IDA 10 mg/m² was the only beneficial factor affecting CR in this group after adjusted for age, blast ratio of bone marrow and FAB classification[OR=0.47 (95% CI 0.31-0.71) , P<0.001]. CR rates in adverse group was 50.0% (18/36) , 60.6% (43/71) and 81.8% (18/22) respectively (P=0.089) . However, the odds ratios (95% CI) of IDA 12 mg/m² when compared with the IDA 8 mg/m² was 0.22 (0.06-0.80) , after adjusted for age, blast ratio of bone marrow and FAB classification. The median time (days) of neutrophil count less than 0.5×10⁹/L in IDA 8 mg/m² group, IDA 10 mg/m² group and IDA 12 mg/m² group were 14 (11-18) , 15 (11-20) and 18 (14-22) , respectively (P=0.012) and of platelet count lower than 20×10⁹/L were 14 (7-17) , 15 (11-20) and 17 (15-21) , respectively (P=0.001) . The incidences of lung infection in the three groups were 9.8%, 13.5% and 25.2%, respectively (P<0.001) . Conclusions For young adult patients (aged 18-60 years) with AML in China, intensifying induction therapy with idarubicin 10 mg/m² is clinically superior to IDA 8 mg/m² and IDA 12 mg/m² in favorable intermediate AML subgroup. However, idarubicin 12 mg/m² is more suitable to adverse AML subgroup.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of Chinese medicine of Wusheng Tincture for external application in treating cancer pain, and to observe its effect on the quality of life ( QOL) of cancer patients. Methods Eighty-three cancer pain patients were randomized into treatment group (N=42) and control group (N=41). Except 5 cases dropping out for the itch of skin, a total of 78 cases finished the treatment, 40 in the treatment and 38 in the control group. The patients were given the corresponding medicine according to the classification of numerical rating scale ( NRS) scores. In the control group, the patients were treated following the three-step analgestic ladder issued by World Health Organization ( WHO). The treatment group was given external application of Wusheng Tincture on the painful regions based on the same three-step analgestie ladder treatment as that of the control group, the treatment course lasting 7 days. The rating scale NRS scores and QOL scores were observed for the assessment of therapeutic effect and QOL of the two groups. Results (1) On medication day 7, NRS scores in both groups were decreased as compared with those one day before treatment (P<0.01), but the differences between the two groups were insignificant (P>0.05) . (2) The total effective rate of the treatment group was 82.5%, and that of the control group was 68.4%, the difference being significant between the two groups ( P<0.05) . For mild-pain patients, the therapeutic effect of the treatment group was better than that of the control group (P<0.05) . However, the difference of the therapeutic effect for patients with moderate and severe pain was insignificant between the two groups ( P>0.05) . ( 3) On medication day 7, QOL scores were much lower in both groups than those one day before medication, the difference being significant ( P<0.01) . However, the difference of QOL scores between the two groups was insignificant after medication (P>0.05) . Conclusion External application of Wusheng Tincture may have certain therapeutic effect in treating patients with mild cancer pain, but fails in enhancing the effect for patients with moderate and severe pain, either in improving the QOL of cancer pain patients when used together with WHO three-step analgestic ladder.

To explore the current status of children receiving primary health services at a community health service center in Shenzhen so as to provide references for the formulation of children health care policies.According to the patient electronic data in 2011,the clinical profiles were analyzed for children aged under 7 years seeking the advice of general practitioners (GPs) at Niuhu Community Health Service Center.Children aged under 7 years accounted for 12.4％ of all subjects.The causes of seeing the GPs were as follows:acute upper respiratory.infection(58.2％),acute bronchitis(14.9％),gastroenteritis(5.6％),trauma(3.3％)and dermatitis(3.2％).And no difference existed in the workload between pediatrists and surgeons,internists or herbalists.The common and frequent community diseases may be diagnosed and managed at a community health service center.

The management model “primary care in community,team service,first contact physician responsibility and two-way referral” was implemented for migrant workers with hypertension in the community.The hypertensive patients under the management for over six months were assigned as management group; the patients who were registered but not under management for over six months served as the control group.The number of new cases detected in hypertension screening increased from 32 in 2008 to 701cases in 2010; and number of hypertensive patients under management increased from 7 cases to 348 accordingly.A questionnaire survey was conducted in 464 hypertensive patients,including 196 cases in management group and 268 cases in control group with a response rate of 94.9％ (186/196) and 92.5％ (248/268) respectively.The results showed that drug compliance rate in management group (168/186,90.3％ ) was significantly higher than that in the control group ( 26.6％,66/248,P =0.00 ).The rate of blood pressure control in management group (87.1％,162/186 ) was significantly higher than that in the control group (25.8％,64/248,P =0.00).The overall satisfaction (98.9％) in management group was significantly higher than that in the control group (88.7％,P =0.00 ).The results indicate that implementation of the hypertension management in migrant workers improves the health seeking behavior and blood pressure control of patients.

Objective To investigate antimicrobial resistance among gram-negative bacilli in China in 2010.Methods A total of 1 259 consecutive and non-repetitive gram-negative bacilli were isolated from 13 teaching hospitals from September to December in 2010 in China.All of these isolates were sent to the central laboratory for re-identification and susceptibility testing.The MIC of meropenem and other antibacterial agents were determined by agar dilution method.Interpretive results was determined by CLSI M100-S21.Results The activity of 14 antibacterial agents against 845 Enterobacteriaceae isolates was as follows in order:meropenem ( 98.1％,829 ),amikacin ( 94.0％,794 ),imipeuem ( 90.0％,761 ),piperacillin/tazobactam ( 87.5％,739 ),cefepime ( 83.0％,701 ),ertapenem ( 82.4％,696 ),cefoperazone/sulbactam ( 80.3％,678 ),colistin (75.4％,637),ceftazidime (70.0％,591 ),ciprofloxacin (59.1％,499 ),cefoxitin ( 54.8％,463 ),ceftriaxone ( 53.5％,452 ),cefotaxime ( 52.3％,442 ) and minocycline(51.5％,435).The prevalence of ESBL was 61.3％ (106/173) in Escherichia coli,which was much higher than 41.2％ (70/170) in Klebsiella pneumoniae.The susceptibility rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae against meropenem,imipenem,amikacin and colistin were more than 90％,but were highly resistant to ceftriaxone and cefotaxime.Over 80％ of Enterobacter cloacae,Enterobacter aerogenes,Citrobacter freundii,were susceptible to meropenem,amikacin,cefepine,cefoperazone/sulbactam,imipenem,piperacillin/ tazobactam,and ertapenem.The most active antibiotics against Pseudomonas aeruginosa were Colistin (98.4％,182),Amikacin ( 85.9％,159 ),Piperacillin/Tazobactam ( 80％,148 ),Ceftazidime ( 79.5％,147),Meropenem (74.1％,137),Ciprofloxacin (74.1％,137),Cefepime (73.5％,136),Imipenem (71.9％,132) and Cefoperazone/Sulbactam (70.8％,131 ).Less than 37％ of Acinetobacter baumannii isolates were resistant to carbapenems.The susceptible rate to Minocycline was 47.8％.Colistin kept good activity against Acinetobacter baumannii (susceptible rate,97.8％,n =176),The prevalence of Pan-drug resistant P.aeruginosa and A.baumannii was 18.9％ (n =35),and 61.8％ (n =108),respectively.Conclusions Carbapenems remained very high activity against Enterobacteriaceae.Increasing resistance to the antimicrobials agents test among A.baumanni and P.aeruginosa,especially carbapenems among A.baumanni brought great concern.
