OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects and mechanisms of oliceridine fumarate （TRV130） in improving postoperative cognitive dysfunction （POCD） in elderly rats based on the Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）/nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB） pathway. METHODS Rats were randomly divided into the control group （normal saline）， the model group （normal saline）， the TRV130 group （2.8 mg/kg）， the TLR4/NF-κB pathway inhibitor （TAK-242） group （3 mg/kg）， the β -arrestin inhibitor （Barbadin） group （3 mg/kg）， and the traditional opioid drug （morphine） group （2.8 mg/kg）， with 15 rats in each group. Except for the control group， POCD models were established in all other groups. From the first day after surgery， drugs/normal saline were administered via caudal vein injection once daily for 3 consecutive days. After the last administration， the pathological damage of hippocampal tissue was observed； the cognitive function， serum inflammatory factor levels， hippocampal neurons apoptosis rate， and the expression of ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 （Iba-1）， glial fibrillary acidic protein （GFAP）， and TLR4/NF-κB pathway-related mRNA and protein in hippocampal tissue were detected. RESULTS In the model group， the neurons in the CA1 region of the hippocampus were disordered and sparse， with decreased number， pyknotic and fragmented nuclei accompanied by inflammatory cell infiltration. Compared with the control group， the escape latency， serum levels of tumor necrosis factor α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and IL-1β， hippocampal neurons apoptosis rate， average fluorescence intensities of Iba-1 and GFAP， mRNA expression levels of TLR4 and NF-κB p65， and their protein expression/phosphorylation levels in hippocampal tissue were significantly increased/elevated in the model group （ P ＜0.05）； the time spent in the target quadrant and the number of platform crossings were significantly shortened/decreased （ P ＜0.05）. Compared with the model group， the cognitive function， pathological， inflammatory， and apoptosis-related indicators were significantly improved in the TRV130 group， TAK-242 group， and Barbadin group （ P ＜0.05）； the mRNA expression levels of TLR4 and NF-κB p65 and their protein expression/phosphorylation levels were significantly decreased in the TRV130 group and TAK-242 group （ P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS TRV130 may improve POCD in elderly rats by inhibiting the TLR4/NF-κB pathway and alleviating postoperative central nervous system inflammatory responses.

Objective To investigate the gait characteristics of school-age children with generalised joint hypermobility(GJH).Methods The kinematic and kinetic data of lower extremity joints in 56 children with GJH and 56 healthy children were collected by 3D motion capture system and 3D force plates,and the differences between the two groups were compared and analyzed.Results Kinematics parameters:the mean ankle inversion angle(P=0.000),maximum hip adduction angle(P=0.002)and maximum foot clearance angle(P=0.004)in stance phase decreased in the GJH children group,while the mean foot progression angle(P=0.000),the maximum foot internal rotation angle(P=0.000)in stance phase,and the knee flexion angle(P=0.032)in the middle stance phase increased.Kinetics parameters:the maximum power of knee(P=0.005)and hip(P=0.000)joints and the maximum inversion moment of ankle joints(P=0.009)in stance phase decreased in GJH children group.Temporal and spatial parameters:the step length(P=0.001),walking velocity(P=0.000),and cadence(P=0.000)decreased in GJH children group,while the stance phase percentage(P=0.000),and step width(P=0.000)increased.Conclusions There is a decrease in walking efficiency and balance stability of children with GJH.The line alignment is abnormal in ankle joint.The knee function needs a long-term attention.

This case report describes the diagnostic and therapeutic management of a 67-year-old fe-male with a 40-year history of Sj?gren disease(SjD)who was hospitalized for evaluation of recurrent fever lasting over one month.The patient's initial diagnosis of SjD was established four decades earlier based on clinical manifestations,serological findings,and evidence of glandular damage.Her clinical presenta-tion included recurrent parotid gland enlargement accompanied by sicca symptoms,notably persistent xerostomia and xerophthalmia,followed by progressive dental caries.Serological studies demonstrated positivity for antinuclear antibodies,anti-SSA/Ro,and anti-α-fodrin antibodies.Objective assessments confirmed significant ocular involvement(Schirmer's test≤5 mm/5 min)and pulmonary interstitial changes on chest CT,consistent with the 2016 American College of Rheumatology and European League Against Rheumatism(ACR/EULAR)classification criteria for SjD.The patient's condition remained sta-ble under low-dose corticosteroids and disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs(DMARDs)until the re-cent onset of prolonged fever,necessitating evaluation for fever of unknown origin.Differential diagnoses considered disease flare,infection,and malignancy.The European Sj?gren's Syndrome Disease Activity Index(ESSDAI)score was 5 points,indicating moderate systemic disease activity.Initial laboratory in-vestigations revealed no evidence of infection,and empirical anti-infective therapy proved ineffective.No-tably,despite the absence of lymphadenopathy,laboratory findings including borderline positive IgM λ M-protein,elevated lactate dehydrogenase,hyperferritinemia,and increased β2-microglobulin levels raised suspicion for lymphoproliferative disorders,given the established association between SjD and lymphoma.Bone marrow aspiration showed no significant abnormalities,but PET/CT imaging detected hypermetabolic lesions in the left breast and right distal femur,suggesting potential malignancy.Subse-quent histopathological examination of the breast lesion confirmed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma(NHL),specifically diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL)of the germinal center B-cell(GCB)subtype.Treatment with R-CHOP chemotherapy(rituximab,cyclophosphamide,doxorubicin,vincristine,and prednisone)induced complete metabolic remission after three cycles.However,she subsequently developed treatment-related complications,including myelosuppression and pulmonary infection.This case underscores the importance of maintaining a high index of suspicion for atypical site involvement in SjD patients,particularly when lymphoma risk factors are present.Comprehensive differential diagnosis should include lymphoma and other malignancies,and the diagnostic value of PET/CT and histopatholog-ical examination in disease evaluation is emphasized.SjD complicated by breast lymphoma is exceptional-ly rare,and its pathogenesis may involve lymphocytic infiltration,abnormal activation of lymphocytes,formation of ectopic germinal centers in the breast,and eventual malignant transformation.These mecha-nisms require further investigation through clinical and basic research studies.

Objective:To establish a qualitative analysis of Rhodiola crenulata for determing six components inclu-ding gallic acid,salidroside,tyrosol,1,2,3,4,6-O-gallic glucose,rhodiosin,oxorlin-7-O-rhamnoside by HPLC,and to find out the feasibility of the method of linear calibration using two reference substances in qualitative analysis of chromatographic peaks.Methods:The real retention time of 6 components in Rhodiola crenulata on 19 chromatographic columns were determined.Gallic acid and rhodiosin were selected as the reference substances,and the method of linear calibration using these 2 substances was used to predict the retention time.Tyrosol was also chosen as the reference to predict the retention time with the relative retention time method(RRT method).Comparing the accuracy of these two methods.Results:Compared to the RRT method,the method of linear calibration with two reference substances was more accurate for predicting the retention time and more adapatable for many kinds of chromatographic columns.Conclusion:As a new alternative reference substance method,the method of linear calibration using two reference substances can assist chromatographic peak determination better and has broad application prospects.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of wearing defocus incorporated multiple segments (DIMS) spectacle lenses on binocular visual function and visual quality in myopic children.Methods:A randomized double-blind controlled study was conducted.A total of 176 children (352 eyes) with myopia aged 6 to 15 years were enrolled in the West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2021 to March 2022.They were randomly divided into DIMS group of 85 cases (170 eyes) and single-vision group of 91 cases (182 eyes) wearing DIMS and single-vision lenses, respectively, using the random number table method.A total of 151 cases (302 eyes) who completed follow-up visits were included in the analysis, including 72 cases (144 eyes) in the DIMS group and 79 cases (158 eyes) in the single-vision group.Before and after 6 and 12 months of lens wear, accommodation amplitude, binocular accommodative sensitivity, distance/near horizontal eye position, and accommodative convergence/accommodation (AC/A) of subjects were measured.Changes in visual function over the year were compared between the two groups.In addition, subjective contrast sensitivity (CS) was assessed at each follow-up visit to evaluate the effect of the lenses on visual quality.The study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of West China Hospital of Sichuan University (No.2020-06).Parents or legal guardians signed written informed consent before the child's participation.Results:There were significant differences in monocular accommodation amplitude and binocular accommodation sensitivity at different time points between before and after lens wear in both groups (Wald χ2time=84.435, 48.201; both P<0.001).In both groups, monocular accommodation amplitude was decreased and the biocular accommodation sensitivity was increased at 6 and 12 months after wearing glasses compared with baseline (all P<0.001).After 12 months of lens wear, the monocular accommodation amplitude decreased by 2.68 D (95% CI: 1.60-3.75 D) in DIMS group and 2.82 D (95% CI: 1.81-3.84 D) in single-vision group.There were statistically significant differences in distance and near horizontal eye position between the two groups at different time points before and after wearing glasses (Wald χtime2=10.398, 23.947; both P<0.01).In the DIMS group, after 12 months of wearing lenses, the distance horizontal eye position drifted outward by 0.68 △(95% CI: 0.06-1.25 △) compared to baseline, with a significant difference ( P<0.05).There was 1.67 △ (95% CI: 0.15-3.20 △) outward drift at near horizontal eye position in the DIMS group and 1.73 △ (95% CI: 0.49-2.96 △) outward drift in the single-vision group compared with baseline, with significant differences (both P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in gradient AC/A values and calculated AC/A values between the two groups at different time points before and after wearing glasses (Wald χtime2=22.001, 13.411; both P<0.01).After 12 months of wearing glasses, the gradient AC/A values significantly decreased in both groups compared to respective baseline, and the calculated AC/A values in the single-vision group showed a significant decrease compared to baseline (all P<0.05).There were no significant difference in the monocular accommodation amplitude, binocular accommodation sensitivity, distance and near horizontal eye position, gradient AC/A values and calculated AC/A values between the two groups (Wald χgroup2=2.385, 2.266, 2.070, 0.571, 0.578, 0.053; all P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the CS at 3, 6, 12, and 18 cpd spatial frequencies between the two groups at different time points before and after wearing lenses (Wald χ2group=1.104, 2.263, 1.861, 3.671; all P>0.05.Wald χ2time=2.260, 5.382, 2.573, 1.637; all P>0.05). Conclusions:Visual function performance after wearing DIMS lenses is consistent with that after wearing single-vision lenses.Wearing DIMS lenses has no obvious negative effect on the long-term visual quality in children.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of hip-knee-ankle active and passive exercise therapy in patients with early-to mid-stage knee osteoarthritis(KOA).Methods A total of 180 patients with early to mid-stage knee osteoarthritis(KOA)were recruited from the First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University of Tradi-tional Chinese Medicine between March 2023 and March 2024.Patients were randomly assigned to one of four groups:active movement group,passive movement group,combined movement group,and control group,with 45 patients in each group.The active movement group received hip-knee-ankle active movement therapy daily until the end of follow-up.The passive movement group underwent hip-knee-ankle passive movement therapy three times per week for two weeks.The combined movement group received both active and passive therapies.The control group was administered oral celecoxib capsules(200 mg once daily for two weeks).Joint function was assessed in all four groups before treatment,at two weeks post-treatment,and at 14 weeks post-treatment.The primary outcome measure was the WOMAC joint function score,while secondary outcomes included the WOMAC pain score,stiffness score,and quality of life score(SF-12).Results A total of 160 patients completed the trial,with 39 in the active group,42 in the passive group,40 in the combined group,and 39 in the control group.There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics among the groups(P>0.05).Compared to baseline,the WOMAC scores for function,pain,and stiffness in the passive,combined,and control groups decreased significantly at both 2 and 14 weeks post-treatment(P<0.05),while the SF-12 scores increased significantly(P<0.05).Between 2 and 14 weeks post-treat-ment,the active and combined groups showed further significant decreases in WOMAC function,pain,and stiffness scores(P<0.05)and increases in SF-12 scores(P<0.05).At 2 weeks post-treatment,compared to the control group,the passive and combined groups exhibited significantly lower WOMAC function scores(P<0.05),with no significant difference between the passive and combined groups(P>0.05).By 14 weeks post-treatment,the active and combined groups demonstrated significantly lower WOMAC function scores(P<0.05),with the combined group showing a significantly lower score than the active group(P<0.05).Conclusion The four therapeutic approaches demonstrate a certain degree of efficacy in improving joint function for patients with early and mid-stage KOA.The passive therapy group exhibits superior short-term outcomes,while the active therapy group shows better long-term benefits.The combined therapy group presents notable advantages in both short-term and long-term effi-cacy,although its short-term effectiveness does not surpass that of the passive therapy group.It is recommended for patients with early and mid-stage KOA who have underlying gastrointestinal and cardiovascular conditions.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC)is a malignant lesion originating from the oral mucosal squamous epithelium,account-ing for over 80％of oral and maxillofacial malignancies.Key etiological factors include tobacco,alcohol abuse,and betel quid chewing.In China,its incidence has shown an overall upward trend,posing a significant threat to public health.OSCC exhibits high local invasive-ness,making early diagnosis critical for improving prognosis.Its clinical management requires close multidisciplinary collaboration among oral and maxillofacial surgery,head and neck surgery,radiation oncology,medical oncology,reconstructive surgery,radiology,patholo-gy,and nutritional support teams.Given the increasing disease burden of OSCC and rapid development of multidisciplinary collaborative models,an expert panel has formulated this integrated management consensus based on evidence-based medicine and extensive deliber-ation.Centered on the'Prevention-Screening-Diagnosis-Treatment-Rehabilitation'framework,the consensus provides comprehensive guidance for the entire disease course of OSCC patients,aiming to standardize clinical practice.

Objective:To systematically evaluate predictive models for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in pregnant and postpartum women, providing a reference for model development, application, and promotion.Methods:A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, and China Biology Medicine disc for studies on SUI predictive models in pregnant and postpartum women. The search period was from database inception to September 30, 2024. Two researchers independently screened the literature and extracted data according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The risk of bias in the predictive models was assessed using the prediction model risk of bias assessment tool.Results:A total of 23 studies were included, covering 31 predictive models for SUI, with a combined sample size of 14 473 women. Among them, six models focused on predicting SUI in pregnant women, while 25 models were developed for postpartum SUI. The predictive factors identified in these models were categorized into nine groups, including: general information for pregnant and postpartum women, delivery data, neonatal data, past history, abortion history, lifestyle data, pelvic floor muscle screening results, 2D and 3D ultrasound data, and serological indicators. Among these, age, mode of delivery, parity, body mass index, history of SUI, and neonatal weight were widely recognized as key predictive factors. External validation was performed in five studies. Five studies showed good applicability and low bias risk, except for one study that had limitations in both bias risk and applicability, and the remaining studies exhibited a high risk of bias but demonstrated good applicability.Conclusions:The methodological quality of SUI predictive models for pregnant and postpartum women needs further improvement. External validation remains insufficient. Future model development should be based on large-sample, prospective studies, incorporating appropriate predictive factors and stratifying SUI risk in different populations to enhance clinical applicability.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of prenatal screening and genetic analysis in the diagnosis of fetal aberrant right subclavian artery(ARSA).Methods:The ultrasonographic features of ARSA fetu-ses detected by prenatal ultrasound at the University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital from October 2017 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The fetuses were divided into isolated ARSA group and complicated ARSA group.Their genetic analysis results and pregnancy outcome were analyzed.Results:Among 30,260 preg-nant women,185 fetuses were diagnosed with ARSA by prenatal ultrasound screening,with an incidence of 0.6％;5 fetuses(2.6％)were diagnosed by ultrasound in the first trimester,and the remaining were diagnosed by fetal grade Ⅲ structural ultrasound examination at 20～24 weeks' gestation.Among them,158 fetuses(85.4％)had isolated ARSA,and 27(14.6％)had complicated ARSA.Among fetuses with ARSA and other structural abnormal-ities,cardiovascular system accounted for the highest proportion(44.4％),followed by nervous system(22.2％)and urinary system(22.2％).Through genetic analysis,8.3％(4/48)fetuses with isolated ARSA and 40.0％(4/10)fetuses with complicated ARSA were found to have chromosomal numerical or structural abnormalities,with statis-tically significant difference between the two groups(P=0.024).Genetic analysis was completed in 48 isolated ARSA,and the positive rate of pathogenic copy number variants(CNV)was 4.2％(2/48),which was not signifi-cantly different from the pathogenic CNV incidence rate of 0.4％(1/239)in elderly pregnant cases during the same period(P=0.074).The Down syndrome positive likelihood ratio(LR+)for isolated ARSA was 2.5 and the Down syndrome LR+for complicated ARSA was 49.6.Conclusions:Complicated ARSA is often associated with cardiovascular abnormalities and is more likely to develop Down syndrome than isolated ARSA.Although the inci-dence of pCNV in isolated ARSA is slightly higher than the natural incidence,the correlation between pCNV and i-solated ARSA has not been clearly determined by the current sample size.

Tuberculosis is a zoonotic disease posing a substantial public health threat.Immunological diagnosis and vaccine im-munization are both necessary to control tuberculosis prevalence.However,the identical antigenic components in diagnostic reagents and vaccines hinder the use of animal vaccines and limit the specificity of clinical diagnosis in humans.Differentiating infected from vaccinated animals can overcome these problems.This article reviews the progress in differential diagnosis research from three as-pects:the diagnostic effects of antigens,methods for discovering new antigens,and screening of new host immune markers,to provide a theoretical basis for future research.
