SMYD5 is a ribosomal methyltransferase with SET and MYND structural domains, which is a member of the SMYD family and is expressed in a variety of tissues, including ovary and testis. This enzyme participates in biological processes such as gene expression regulation, cell development and differentiation, and maintenance of genomic stability through ribosomal protein methylation modification. In recent years, research on SMYD5 has increased in cancers including hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric adenocarcinoma, and lung cancer. Studies have revealed that SMYD5 exhibits high expression levels in various diseases including hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric adenocarcinoma, lung cancer, and inflammatory bowel disease, influencing the progression of these conditions. This review summarizes the role of SMYD5 in hepatocellular carcinoma, inflammatory bowel disease, and other biological functions, aiming to provide a reference for related disease research.

Pituitary adenoma is a common intracranial tumor, and endoscopic endonasal surgery has become one of its primary treatment modalities. Intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) technology can provide surgeons with real-time imaging during surgery, significantly enhancing surgical precision and safety. This case report retrospectively analyzes a case of recurrent pituitary adenoma treated at the Department of Neurosurgery, Huashan Hospital, Fudan University. During endoscopic endonasal surgery, the iMRI revealed residual tumor tissue located above the scar from previous surgery. With the aid of neuronavigation, the surgeon precisely identified and incised the proliferative fibrous tissue that had been misidentified as the diaphragma sellae, successfully removing the concealed tumor and achieving gross total resection. Postoperatively, the patient experienced marked improvement in visual acuity, preserved normal pituitary function, and had no cerebrospinal fluid leakage. Based on this case and relevant literature, this paper discusses the advantages of iMRI in endoscopic endonasal surgery and its potential to improve patient outcomes, aiming to provide reference and guidance for clinical practice.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective:To investigate the effect of quality improvement (QI) project on delayed cord clamping (DCC) implementation in very preterm infants.Methods:This study retrospectively collected the clinical data and assessed the QI indices of very preterm infants born in the Women and Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University and transferred to the Neonatology Department from January 2017 to January 2021. The indices for QI assessment included three types: (1) process indices: the implementation rate and timing of DCC; (2) outcome indices: hemoglobin level and hematocrit, etc; (3) balancing indices: the proportion of neonates requiring endotracheal intubation in the delivery room and chest compressions, Apgar score body temperature, and blood pH value on admission, etc. There were four phases for the implementation of QI, the pre-QI period (January to December of 2017), the QI period (January to December of 2018), the post-QI period (January to December of 2019), and the sustained-QI period (January 2020 to January 2021). The QI project was performed since August 2018. Control charts or statistical tests were used for statistical analysis.Results:(1) Process indices: After the implementation of the QI project, the practice of DCC increased from 0 to 82.2%, and the timing of umbilical cord clamping was from 0 s to a delay of 47.1 s. (2) Outcome indices: The levels of hemoglobin in the QI period, the post-QI period, and the sustained-QI period were significantly higher than those in the pre-QI period [(202.22±28.84), (210.10±33.52), (210.52±32.27) g/L vs. (187.94±35.29) g/L; F=8.61, P<0.001]. The hematocrit values in the post-QI period and the sustained-QI period were significantly higher than those in the pre-QI period [(58.99±8.71) %, (60.18±8.06)% vs. (55.41±9.17)%; χ2=5.13, P=0.002]. The other indices showed no statistical differences in different phases. (3) Balancing indices: The proportions of neonates receiving endotracheal intubation in the delivery room in the post-QI period and the sustained-QI period were significantly lower than those in the pre-QI period [16.0% (19/119), 13.2% (25/191) vs. 42.3% (30/71); χ2=29.08, P<0.001]. The body temperature on admission increased gradually through the four periods [pre-QI period: 35.3 ℃ (34.5-36.1 ℃); QI period: 36.0 ℃ (34.0-37.7 ℃); post-QI period: 36.0 ℃ (35.6-37.4 ℃); sustained-QI period: 37.0 ℃ (35.9-38.1 ℃); H=277.88, P<0.001]. The blood pH value on admission in the sustained-QI period [7.32 (6.85-7.50)] was significantly higher than those in the other three periods [7.26 (7.07-7.46), 7.26 (7.04-7.43), and 7.25 (6.91-7.49); H=34.46, P<0.001]. Conclusion:The interventions in this QI project significantly increase the practice of DCC and enable a longer DCC in very preterm infants.

Objective:To observe the feelings of listening to music and the importance of music in the daily life of post-lingual deaf adults with cochlear implants, and to explore the relevant influencing factors.Methods:This was a cross-sectional survey study. From January 2021 to August 2021,the Music-Related Quality of Life Scale was used to evaluate the music needs and music experiences of 63 post-lingual deaf adults who met the inclusion criteria, including 27 males and 36 females, aged (40.7±12.3) years, at the time of surgery (36.8±13.1) years, and with a preoperative hearing aid ineffective time of (3.9±5.8) years. Indicators analyzed included age, duration of ineffective preoperative hearing aid wear, preoperative music preference, duration of postoperative cochlear implant use, current hearing aid modality, and auditory rehabilitation outcomes. Whether the six factors mentioned above constituted an influence on the subjects′ music listening was investigated using SPSS 25.0 statistical software.Results:All of the observations in the scale were correlated with a single factor. The two sub-dimensions of music experience section were related to the effect of auditory rehabilitation. In the importance section, the effect of auditory rehabilitation was the influential factor of the dimension of "participation importance", and the preoperative enjoyment of music was the relevant influential factor of the dimension of "perceived importance". There was a significant difference between the groups when they were grouped by the above factors ( P value<0.05), while there was no statistically significance between the groups when they were grouped by other factors ( P value>0.05). Conclusions:Post-lingual deaf adults show the need and attempt to listen to music after cochlear implantation. The effectiveness of auditory rehabilitation and the degree of music preference preoperatively are two important factors that influence music listening in implant recipients. Once the level of auditory communication has been restored to a certain degree, it is important to pay more attention to the needs of music for implant recipients and train them in time, especially for those with music preferences preoperatively.

To enhance patients′ medical experience, a major Grade-A tertiary hospital has chosen its cardio-cerebrovascular disease branch with excellent specialty and prominent aging problems for innovative outpatient service systems. It created a comprehensive outpatient nursing post that integrated multiple departments of outpatient services, providing outpatient nursing services and related medical services such as outpatient office, medical insurance, and finance. By breaking the limitations of professional services, adjusting the outpatient service space, establishing standardized personnel training, assessment, and incentive mechanisms, and establishing an effective quality management system, the patients could complete all medical services without leaving the consultation area. The processing time for comprehensive patient services has been shortened from around 10 min to 1~5 min. In 2023, the complaint rate of the outpatients in the cardio-cerebrovascular disease branch was 0.89 times per 10 000 people, lower than the average of 1.37 times per 10 000 people in the entire hospital. The average satisfaction score of the outpatients from the branch was 93.9 points, higher than the 89.6 points of the entire hospital, achieving satisfactory results.

This paper summarized Professor ZHOU Zhongying's experience in differentiating and treating hepatitis and liver cirrhosis from deficiency and excess. It is considered that the pathogenesis of hepatitis and liver cirrhosis belongs to deficiency in root and excess in branch, with depletion of liver, spleen and kidney as the root, and constraint and bind of damp-heat and stasis toxin as the branch. Moreover, mutual cause and promotion between deficiency and excess leads to the disease. For general principle of treatment, it is recommended to clear and transform pathogenic excess, supplement deficiency and rectify the healthy qi. In the early stage of hepatitis and cirrhosis, excess pathogen hyperactivity is the main manifestation, which can be treated by clearing and transforming damp-heat and stasis toxin, supplemented by regulating spleen and stomach, with modified Yinchenhao Decoction (茵陈蒿汤) and Biejiajian Pill (鳖甲煎丸). In the middle and late stages, cases with deficiency-excess complex were more common, which should be treated by clearing damp-heat and stasis toxin, regulating and supplementing liver-spleen-kidney, using medicinals with the function of clearing heat and dispelling damp, dissolving stasis and resolving toxins to treat the branch. Moreover, Liujunzi Decoction (六君子汤), Yiguan Decoction (一贯煎)plus Erzhi Pill (二至丸) and Buzhong Yiqi Decoction (补中益气汤) modifications are suggested respectively in correspondence to the different kinds of root deficiency including irregular liver and spleen, liver and kidney yin deficiency, and liver-spleen-kidney deficiency.
