Future research should focus on exploring its intervention mechanisms, personalized schemes and the breadth of cross-departmental applications.

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.

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.

Objective:To explore the categories and influencing factors of depression in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) patients, so as to provide a reference for formulating precise interventions for depression in MCI patients.Methods:A cross-sectional investigation was conducted. Patients with MCI admitted to the Department of Neurology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from December 2022 to December 2023 were selected as the investigation objects by convenience sampling method. The general data questionnaire, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale-17, Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale and Lubben Social Network Scale-6 were used to conduct a survey. Latent profile analysis and multiple Logistic regression analysis were used to explore the categories and influencing factors of depression.Results:A total of 537 patients with MCI were included, including 335 females and 202 males, aged (65.72 ± 9.53) years old. MCI patients scored (22.67 ± 4.68) points on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale, (13.27 ± 5.73) points on the Lubben Social Network Scale-6, and 9.00 (5.00, 13.00) points on the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale-17. The depression in MCI patients could be divided into three categories: low risk depression (67.8%, 364/537), low depression-sleep disorder (20.1%, 108/537), and high depression-anxiety (12.1%, 65/537). The multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that gender, education, living style, social isolation and cognitive function were the influencing factors for different categories of depression ( OR values were 0.443-2.921, all P<0.05). Conclusions:There are individual differences in depression in patients with MCI, and precise intervention should be implemented according to the characteristics of different categories of depression.

Objective:To investigate differentially expressed lipid molecules and their associated metabolic pathways in lung tissue using lipidomic analysis in a rat model of acute lung injury (ALI).Methods:An ALI rat model was established via intratracheal instillation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Twenty rats were randomly allocated into an ALI group and a control group ( n = 10 per group). The left lung was subjected to histopathological evaluation, while the right lung underwent untargeted lipidomics analysis. Ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was employed for lipid profiling. Principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were performed to assess intergroup differences and determine variable importance in projection (VIP) scores. Differential lipids were screened based on VIP and fold change.Lipid identification and metabolic pathway analysis were conducted using MetaboAnalyst 5.0 and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) database. Results:Among 1 022 detected lipid molecules, 47 were differentially expressed (VIP > 1, FC > 2.0 or < 0.5, P< 0.05). Subsequent analysis identified 12 structurally annotated lipids ( P < 0.05), predominantly enriched in glycerophospholipid metabolism, linoleic acid metabolism, and α-linolenic acid metabolism pathways. Notably, phosphatidylcholines (PCs) and lysophosphatidylcholines (LPCs) exhibited significant alterations in the ALI group. Conclusions:The ALI model demonstrated substantial dysregulation of lipid metabolism, particularly involving PCs and LPCs, with prominent perturbations in glycerophospholipid metabolism. This provides a scienctific basis for indepth research on the pathogenesis mechanism of ALI/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) .

Objective To investigate effects of Cordyceps sinensis(CS)on high glucose(HG)induced podocyte injury by regulating the adenylate activated protein kinase(AMPK)/mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR)signaling pathway.Methods Mouse podocytes were cultured in vitro and divided into the normal glucose(NG)group,the HG group,the HG+CS group,the HG+CS+autophagy inhibitor(HG+CS+3MA)group and the HG+CS+AMPK inhibitor(HG+CS+Compound C)group.Podocyte viability was detected by CCK-8 method.Western blot assay was used to detect the expression levels of podocyte marker proteins podocin and nephrin,autophagy-related proteins Beclin-1 and P62,and pathway related proteins p-AMPK and p-mTOR.Results Compared with the NG group,the cell viability of podocytes decreased,the expression levels of podocin,nephrin,Beclin-1 and p-AMPK protein were decreased,and the expression levels of P62 and p-mTOR protein were increased in the HG group(P＜0.05).Compared with the HG group,the cell viability of podocytes was increased,the expression levels of podocin,nephrin,Beclin-1 and p-AMPK protein were significantly increased(P＜0.05),and the expression levels of P62 and p-mTOR protein were decreased in the HG+CS group(P＜0.05).Compared with the HG+CS group,the cell viability decreased in the HG+CS+3MA group and the HG+CS+Compound C group(P＜0.05).Compared with the HG+CS group,the HG+CS+3MA group and the HG+CS+Compound C group showed decreased expression levels of podocin,nephrin and Beclin-1 protein,and increased expression of P62 protein(P＜0.05).Compared with the HG+CS group,the expression of p-AMPK protein decreased and the expression of p-mTOR protein increased in the HG+CS+Compound C group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Cordyceps sinensis may play a protective role in diabetic nephropathy by up-regulating AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway to induce podocyte autophagy,alleviate high glucose induced podocyte injury and apoptosis.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome(PRRS),an infectious disease,poses a significant threat to the swine industry.The causative agent of the disease is porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus(PRRSV),which primarily infects porcine alveolar macrophages and destroys the immune system.In the absence of specific antiviral drugs targeting PRRSV,vacci-nation is of paramount importance for the prevention and control of this disease.Currently,there are numerous types of PRRS vaccines,such as attenuated live vaccines,inactivated vaccines,sub-unit vaccines,DNA vaccines,vector vaccines,and so forth.However,only attenuated live virus and inactivated virus vaccines are widely employed for the prevention and control of PRRS.Live vac-cines offer relatively better protection effects,but they have weak cross-protection and pose safety concerns.Inactivated vaccines are safe but have poor immunogenicity.This article conducts a com-prehensive review of the advantages,disadvantages,and applicability of PRRS vaccines,including attenuated live vaccines,inactivated vaccines,subunit vaccines,vector vaccines,DNA vaccines,mR-NA vaccines,virus-like particle vaccines,etc.,aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the research and development of the next generation of PRRS vaccines.

A case of secondary pulmonary infection in a patient with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was admitted.The patient was initially giren piperacillin-tazobactam combined with levofloxacin for anti-infective treatment before the pathogen was identified.lafer,the HRZE anti-tuberculosis regimen was added,but the patient continued to experience high fever,yellow purulent sputum,and dyspnea.Subsequent,bronchoalveolar lavage fluid pathogen metagenomic sequencing revealed Nocardia terpenica.Clinical pharmacists,based on the patient's condition changes and in accordance with relevant guidelines and literature,suggested using various antimicrobial agents,including compound sulfamethoxazole tablets,linezolid glucose injection,amikacin injection combined with imipenem-cilastatin,to manage the patient's intolerance to sulfonamides and the bone marrow suppression induced by linezolid and to provide medication suggestions.The clinician adopted all the suggestions.Through the collaborative efforts of physicians and clinical pharmacists,the patient's condition improved,allowing for discharge with medication.Post-discharge,medication education and follow-up were conducted,leading to successful recovery.In this case,the clinical pharmacist reviewed domestic and international literature on Nocardia terpenica and the characteristics of antimicrobial drugs,and utilized their expertise to assist clinicians in treating rare infection cases,realizing their professional value.

Ursodeoxycholic acid(UDCA)is a naturally occurring,low-toxicity,and hydrophilic bile acid(BA)in the human body that is converted by intestinal flora using primary BA.Solute carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11)functions to uptake extracellular cystine in exchange for glutamate,and is highly expressed in a variety of human cancers.Retroperitoneal liposarcoma(RLPS)refers to liposarcoma originating from the retroperitoneal area.Lipidomics analysis revealed that UDCA was one of the most significantly down-regulated metabolites in sera of RIPS patients compared with healthy subjects.The augmentation of UDCA concentration(≥25 μg/mL)demonstrated a suppressive effect on the proliferation of liposarcoma cells.[15N2]-cystine and[13Cs]-glutamine isotope tracing revealed that UDCA impairs cystine uptake and glutathione(GSH)synthesis.Mechanistically,UDCA binds to the cystine transporter SLC7A11 to inhibit cystine uptake and impair GSH de novo synthesis,leading to reactive oxygen species(ROS)accumulation and mitochondrial oxidative damage.Furthermore,UDCA can promote the anti-cancer effects of ferroptosis inducers(Erastin,RSL3),the murine double minute 2(MDM2)inhibitors(Nutlin 3a,RG7112),cyclin dependent kinase 4(CDK4)inhibitor(Abemaciclib),and glutaminase inhibitor(CB839).Together,UDCA functions as a cystine exchange factor that binds to SLC7A11 for antitumor activity,and SLC7A11 is not only a new transporter for BA but also a clinically applicable target for UDCA.More importantly,in combination with other antitumor chemotherapy or physiotherapy treatments,UDCA may provide effective and promising treatment strategies for RLPS or other types of tumors in a ROS-dependent manner.
