BACKGROUND:Early exercise treatment is the main prevention way for traumatic joint contracture and is also a research focus.Swimming may be a potential intervention for joint contracture due to the special physical properties of water. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of swimming on the development of joint contracture in a rat model and study its mechanisms. METHODS:Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a blank control group(n=8)and a joint contracture group(n=16).After the surgical operation of knee joint contracture rat models,the joint contracture group was randomly subdivided into a surgical control group(n=8)and a swimming treatment group(n=8).Swimming started in the swimming treatment group in the second week after surgery and lasted for a total of 5 weeks.At the 6th week after surgery,the body mass,knee joint range of motion,and quadriceps diameter were tested,and the diameter/body mass index was calculated.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was performed to detect the pathological changes in the knee joint capsule and quadriceps muscle,and Masson staining was used to observe fibrotic changes in the knee joint capsule.Furthermore,the protein expression of transforming growth factor β1 and type I collagen in the knee joint capsule was quantified by immunohistochemical assay and western blot was performed to detect the protein expression of MuRF1 in the quadriceps femoris. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the blank control group,the knee range of motion decreased in the surgical control and swimming treatment groups(P<0.01),and knee extension deficit and arthrogenic extension deficit were significantly increased(P<0.01),the diameter of the quadriceps muscle was decreased(P<0.01),the joint capsule showed significant fibrosis,the quadriceps muscle was atrophied,and the diameter/body mass index was decreased(P<0.01).Compared with the surgical control group,the swimming treatment group showed a significant increase in knee joint range of motion and quadriceps diameter(P<0.01),and significant improvement in joint capsule fibrosis and quadriceps atrophy.Compared with the blank control group,collagen fiber content and expression of transforming growth factor β1 and type I collagen were increased in the joint capsule of rats in both the surgical control group and the swimming treatment group(P<0.01).Compared with the surgical control group,collagen fiber content and expression of transforming growth factor β1 and type I collagen protein in the joint capsule were decreased in the swimming treatment group.Compared with the blank control group,the expression of MuRF1 protein in the quadriceps muscle of rats in the surgical control group and the swimming treatment group was increased(P<0.05).Compared with the surgical control group,the expression of MuRF1 protein in the quadriceps muscle of rats in the swimming treatment group was decreased(P<0.05).To conclude,early swimming intervention reduces transforming growth factor β1 and type I collagen expression in the joint capsule of traumatic joint contracture rats,decreases MuRF1 expression in the quadriceps muscle,and increases joint range of motion and quadriceps diameter,thereby inhibiting the development of joint contracture.

Hepatectomy has become the most important treatment method for hepatobiliary diseases.The perioperative management of hepatectomy is closely related to its safety and efficacy.Perioperative management includes systematic evaluation and management of the patient's condition before,during,and after surgery,and its principles and methods have developed rapidly in recent years.In 2017,the Group of Liver Surgery of Surgical Society of Chinese Medical Association released the"Expert Consensus on Perioperative Management of Hepatectomy".On this basis,the editorial committee has reviewed existing evidence-based medicine research evidence,combined with the latest clinical practice experience of numerous liver surgery centers at home and abroad,organized a multidisciplinary expert team in relevant fields in China for discussion,and revised to formulate the guideline.This guideline covers a systematic assessment,treatment principles,and methods for relevant conditions before,during,and after hepatectomy,and provides specific recommendations.The revision of the guidelines aims to promote the standardization and refinement of clinical practice in this field,improve the safety and clinical efficacy of liver resection,and provide guidance and reference for clinical professionals related to liver surgery.

Objective:To assess the efficacy and safety profile of antaitasvir phosphate combined with yiqibuvir in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) of various genotypes, without cirrhosis or with compensated cirrhosis.Methods:394 cases with CHC from 22 centers were collected from October 2021 to April 2023. They were randomly assigned to receive either the experimental drugs (antaitasvir phosphate 100 mg+yiqibuvir 600 mg) or placebo treatment in a 3∶1 ratio. The patients were administered drugs once a day for 12 consecutive weeks, and then followed up for 24 weeks after treatment cessation. All subjects were unblinded at the four-week follow-up following drug discontinuation, with the experimental drug group continuing to complete subsequent post-discontinuation follow-up. The placebo group was switched to receive the experimental drugs for a repeated 12-week treatment period and followed up for another 24 weeks after discontinuation of the drug (placebo delayed treatment phase).The sustained virologic response rate (SVR12) was observed for subjects in the double-blind phase and the placebo delayed-treatment phase at 12 weeks after treatment cessation.Virological resistance analysis was performed on subjects who failed treatment. The primary efficacy endpoint was SVR12. The number and percentage of subjects who achieved "HCV RNA

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To investigate factors influencing 18F-FDG PET/CT SUVmax,T/MB ratio and Ki-67 expression in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma(NHL),to analyze their correlations with lymphoma aggressiveness and their potential advantages in predicting therapeutic efficacy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted to investigate correlations between tumor SUVmax,T/MB ratio,and Ki-67 expression with NHL aggressiveness and clinical characteristics in 99 patients;whether SUVmax,T/MB ratio and Ki-67 served as independent prognostic factors influencing therapeutic efficacy was examined,and potential utility of ΔSUVmax and ΔT/MB as biomarkers for treatment response assessment were evaluated.Results:Aggressive NHL demonstrated significantly higher SUVmax,T/MB ratio and Ki-67 level compared to indolent NHL and aggressive/indolent NHL(P<0.05).A pretreatment SUVmax≥9.05,T/MB≥5.115 or Ki-67≥55%could predict clinical remission in NHL patients post-treatment,while post-treatment reductions of ΔSUVmax≥22.65%or ΔT/MB≥34.85%were associated with achieved clinical remission.Conclusion:SUVmax,T/MB ratio and Ki-67 are closely associated with aggressiveness of NHL,which can be predicted whether NHL will be relieved after treatment.ΔSUVmax and ΔT/MB can assess whether NHL has been relieved after treatment.
