Objective:To analyze the current status, hotspots, and trends of community integration (CI) at home and abroad, providing directions for subsequent research.Methods:The China National Knowledge Infrastructure and the Web of Science Core Collection data were used, and CiteSpace software was employed to analyze the publication, countries, disciplines, and keywords of CI.Results:A total of 932 Chinese and 2 319 English hits were included. The publication of CI had shown an increasing trend both domestically and internationally. Sociology and rehabilitation were the main disciplines in CI domestically and internationally, respectively. Domestically, CI research primarily focused on the community integration of migrant workers, floating populations, and accompanying family members. Internationally, the emphasis was on the integration of individuals with disabilities and other special groups. Future research directions in China were likely to focus on group work, the elderly, and relocated populations. Internationally, CI research would continue to concentrate on CI experiences and intervention methods for individuals with disabilities and special populations.Conclusion:CI is increasingly gaining attention both domestically and internationally. However, domestic research remains insufficient and needs to be expanded through more empirical studies in various vertical subfields. Future domestic scholars should continue to focus on CI of the elderly and engage in interdisciplinary research.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological features,differential diagnosis,and prognosis of breast carcinoma within fibroadenoma(FA).Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical and imaging data of 21 cases of FA-associated carcinoma.HE staining,immunohistochemistry using the EnVision method,and next-generation sequencing were employed to assess the clinicopathological characteristics and genetic alterations,with a review of the relevant literature.Results All patients were female,aged 21-67 years,with a median age of 48 years.Clinically,all lesions presented with well-circumscribed mass lesions.On imaging,12 cases demonstrated punctate or coarse calcifications,while 3 cases exhibited locally indistinct margins.Pathological examination revealed that the tumors had an average maximum diameter of 2.25 cm,with a gray-white nodular cut surface resembling FA.Microscopically,there was proliferation of either epithelial or spindle cells.The pathological diagnosis was FA-associat-ed in situ carcinoma in 16 cases(15 cases of low-grade ductal carcinoma in situ and 1 case of lobular carcinoma in si-tu),and invasive carcinoma in 5 cases(comprising 2 cases of invasive carcinoma-no special type,1 case of invasive lobular carcinoma,1 case of low-grade adenosquamous carcinoma and 1 case of fibromatosis-like metaplastic carcino-ma).In 18 cases,the carcinoma was confined within the FA,whereas in 3 cases the tumor locally extended beyond the FA,and 1 case exhibited ipsilateral axillary lymph node metastasis.Immunophenotypically,tumor cells in in situ carcinomas were negative for CK5/6,while the myoepithelial cells were p63-positive,and both estrogen receptor(ER)and progesterone receptor(PR)were diffusely and consistently positive.In invasive carcinoma,both ductal and lobular subtypes were ER and PR positive and HER2 negative.Conversely,in the low-grade adenosquamous carcinoma and fi-bromatosis-like metaplastic carcinoma,ER,PR,and HER2 were all negative,with p63 and CK5/6 positivity.Two ca-ses were negative for mismatch repair protein PMS2.Six cases had a family or personal history of malignant tumors;a-mong the 5 cases that underwent next-generation sequencing,2 cases harbored germline BRCA2 mutations,2 cases had germline PMS2 mutations,and 1 case exhibited no definitive genetic alteration.Conclusion Carcinoma arising within FA exhibits atypical clinical and imaging features.In patients with high-risk factors for breast cancer or family history of malignancy,or when calcifications are observed on imaging,prompt excision and biopsy are recommended.Recogniz-ing the abnormal morphology within FA and the use of immunohistochemistry are essential for accurate diagnosis,with careful differentiation from spindle cell metaplastic carcinoma and low-grade adenosquamous carcinoma.Overall,the prognosis is relatively favorable,and treatment should be tailored according to tumor type,molecular subtype,and stage.

BACKGROUND:Delayed healing and nonunion of fractures are common clinical issues.Clinical observations have shown that patients with limb fractures combined with traumatic brain injury experience significantly faster fracture healing compared with those without brain injury.The potential mechanisms behind this phenomenon have become a crucial focus of current research.Recent studies indicate that traumatic brain injury significantly accelerates callus formation and fracture healing processes by regulating cytokines,hormones,neural signals,and stem cell mechanisms.OBJECTIVE:To summarize the latest research progress in the mechanisms by which traumatic brain injury promotes callus formation and fracture healing,thereby providing a theoretical basis for clinical applications.METHODS:The first author conducted a search of CNKI,WanFang,VIP,PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,and Cochrane Library databases for literature published from January 2013 to October 2024,with some references traced back up to 20 years.The search terms used were"traumatic brain injury,callus,fracture healing,inflammatory response,cytokines,hormones,neuropeptides,genes,stem cells"in Chinese and English.A total of 83 articles meeting the inclusion criteria were ultimately selected.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The mechanism by which traumatic brain injury promotes callus formation and fracture healing is highly complex,involving multiple regulatory pathways such as cytokines,hormones,the nervous system,and stem cells.However,the precise mechanisms are still not fully understood and require further investigation.Current research suggests that traumatic brain injury accelerates bone callus formation and bone tissue regeneration by promoting the release of cytokines(e.g.,insulin-like growth factor-1)and hormones(e.g.,growth hormone and leptin),regulating the nervous system,and promoting stem cell proliferation and differentiation.Additionally,traumatic brain injury triggers a series of immune responses,including the release of inflammatory factors and activation of immune cells,which modulate fracture healing.These responses improve local blood flow,cell migration,and fibroblast activation,supporting various stages of bone healing.Stem cell activation induced by traumatic brain injury is also crucial,as activated stem cells differentiate into osteoblasts,chondrocytes,and adipocytes,facilitating bone tissue regeneration and repair.Therefore,traumatic brain injury-induced immune responses and stem cell activation work together to accelerate fracture healing,providing essential support for the process.These mechanisms significantly shorten the healing time and improve patient outcomes.In conclusion,traumatic brain injury promotes callus formation and fracture healing through multiple mechanisms,highlighting its importance in bone repair.Future research should focus on the signaling pathways and regulatory factors influenced by traumatic brain injury to further understand its mechanisms.These findings will provide a foundation for developing targeted therapies,stem cell treatments,and neural regulation therapies,with potential clinical value in shortening healing time,optimizing recovery protocols,and improving prognosis.Exploring traumatic brain injury-induced biological effects will open new avenues for fracture treatment.

To investigate the in vitro inhibitory mechanism of Nymphaea candida total flavonoids(NCTF)against Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus)and its safety in mice,this study first deter-mined the antibacterial effect of NCTF on the clinically isolated strain S.aureus-C1.Subsequently,the inhibitory mechanism of NCTF on S.aureus-C1 was explored by measuring its effects on bac-terial growth curves,microstructure,intracellular AKP and LDH levels,and biofilm formation.Safety evaluation included determination of LD50 and MDT in mice,as well as analysis of serum biochemical parameters,organ indices,and histopathological observations.Results showed that NCTF effectively inhibited S.aureus-C1 proliferation,with an inhibition zone diameter of(18.98±0.67)mm and a MIC of 6.25 g/L.A concentration of 2×MIC nearly completely suppressed bacte-rial growth.Scanning electron microscopy revealed structural damage to bacterial cells,including collapse and shrinkage.AKP and LDH assays indicated significantly increased AKP activity(P＜0.05)and decreased intracellular LDH activity(P＜0.05)in the supernatant of drug-treated groups,demonstrating NCTF-induced disruption of cell walls and membranes leading to leakage of AKP and LDH.Crystal violet staining of biofilms showed significant inhibition rates of(43.77±9.16)％and(61.71±9.82)％at 2 × MIC and 4 × MIC concentrations,respectively(P＜0.05).Safe-ty assessments indicated low toxicity of NCTF in mice,with transient effects that returned to nor-mal levels within a short period.These findings demonstrate that NCTF exhibits potent antibacte-rial activity against S.aureus-C1 by damaging bacterial cell structures,increasing cell wall/mem-brane permeability,reducing biofilm formation,and displaying low toxicity.This study provides scientific evidence for clinical drug screening against bovine mastitis and the development of Nym-phaea candida resources.

Objective:To evaluate the role of peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4)-mediated development of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in lung ischemia-reperfusion injury (LIRI) in mice.Methods:Ninety-six clean-grade healthy male C57BL/6 mice, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=24 each) using a table of random numbers: sham operation group (group S), sham operation + PAD4 specific inhibitor GSK484 group (group S+ G), lung ischemia-reperfusion group (group L), and lung ischemia-reperfusion + GSK484 group (group L+ G). After anesthesia and mechanical ventilation, mice were subjected to left hilum occlusion for 1 h followed by 2 h of reperfusion to establish the LIRI model in L and L+ G groups. Mice underwent thoracotomy for 3 h without left hilum occlusion in S and S+ G groups. In S+ G and L+ G groups, GSK484 4 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected once a day for 3 days before developing the model. At the end of reperfusion, blood samples were collected from the abdominal aorta for blood gas analysis to record arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO 2). Mice were then sacrificed to collect bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and to obtain lung tissues. The concentrations of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) in BALF were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The wet/dry lung weight (W/D) ratio was calculated. The lung tissues were obtained for microscopic examination of pathological changes (with a light microscope) which were scored after hematoxylin-eosin staining and for determination of the contents of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) (by colorimetric assay) and expression of PAD4, neutrophil elastase (NE), high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), and citrullinated histone 3 (Cit-H3) (by Western blot). Results:Compared with group S, lung injury scores and W/D ratios were significantly increased, PaO 2 was decreased, the concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and MPO in BALF were increased, the content of SOD was decreased, the content of MDA was increased, and the expression of PAD4, NE, HMGB1 and Cit-H3 was up-regulated in L and L+ G groups ( P<0.05), and no significant changes were observed in the aforementioned parameters in group S+ G ( P>0.05). Compared with group L, lung injury scores and W/D ratios were significantly decreased, PaO 2 was increased, concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and MPO in BALF were decreased, the content of SOD was increased, the content of MDA was decreased, and the expression of PAD4, NE, HMGB1 and Cit-H3 was down-regulated in group L+ G ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Up-regulated PAD4 expression can promote the development of NETs and aggravate oxidative stress and inflammatory responses in lung tissues, thereby participating in LIRI in mice.
