OBJECTIVE To analyze the specific risks and long-term toxicities of four BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors （TKIs）（imatinib， dasatinib， nilotinib， and bosutinib） in pediatric patients with hematological malignancies. METHODS Adverse drug event （ADE） reports submitted to the the United States FDA Adverse Event Reporting System （FAERS） from January 2012 to December 2024， with imatinib， dasatinib， nilotinib， and bosutinib as the primary suspect drugs， were collected. Data mining was performed using the reporting odds ratio method and proportional reporting ratio method. ADE terms were classified and summarized by system organ class （SOC） and preferred term （PT） according to the Medical Dictionary for Drug Regulatory Activities （MedDRA， version 26.0）. Meanwhile， the ADE reports were divided by age into the adult group （≥18 years） and the pediatric group （＜18 years） to compare the differences in ADE between the two groups. RESULTS A total of 1 512 pediatric ADE reports were included： 993 for imatinib， 391 for dasatinib， 112 for nilotinib， and 16 for bosutinib. Among the reported ADEs， the patients were mainly aged 12-＜18 years； the reports mainly originated from the United States， France， and Japan； and the primary indications were chronic myeloid leukemia and acute lymphoblastic leukemia. A total of 5 256 ADE signals were mined， among which 235 were positive signals， involving 1 103 PT across 27 SOC. The top five PT ranked by the number of positive signals were nausea， febrile neutropenia， abdominal pain， neutropenia， and anemia. The top two SOC were general disorders and administration site conditions， and gastrointestinal disorders. Compared with the adult group， the pediatric group had relatively higher proportions of events related to infections and infestations as well as blood and lymphatic system disorders. Pediatric long-term toxicity signals primarily included growth retardation， accompanied by signals related to endocrine system abnormalities and bone metabolism abnormalities. Specific signals included imatinib-associated septic shock， dasatinib-associated chylothorax， and nilotinib-associated electrocardiographic QT interval prolongation. CONCLUSIONS When pediatric patients use BCR-ABL1 TKIs， priority monitoring of infection risk and hematologic parameters is required， along with long-term follow-up of height， endocrine， and bone metabolism parameters. Targeted screening and management of drug-specific signals should be performed to ensure the long-term safety of pediatric medication.

By various spectroscopic techniques, such as 1D and 2D NMR, HR-ESI-MS, IR, UV, and CD, their structures were identified as atractylmacron A (1), 9β-hydroxyasterolide (2), atractylenolide H (3), atractylenolide J (4). Compound 1 possesses a rare 6/7 bicyclic skeleton.

Thoracolumbar spine fracture often leads to severe pain, functional impairments, and neurological deficits, for which open reduction and internal fixation can effectively restore the spinal structural stability. Open decompression and reduction with internal fixation can help relieve spinal cord compression and improve spinal function in cases of concomitant cord injury. Although spinal stability can be restored through surgery, patients often face chronic pain and functional impairments postoperatively. A postoperative rehabilitation program is critical in optimizing therapeutic outcomes, reducing complications, and minimizing the risk of secondary injuries. However, current rehabilitation methods, such as physical therapy, functional training, and pain management, are confronted with problems in clinical practice, including significant variation in efficacy, poor patient adherence, and prolonged rehabilitation period. There is an urgent need for a unified rehabilitation strategy to address these problems. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Physicians Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and the Spine Health Professional Committee of the Chinese Human Health Technology Promotion Association organized experts from relevant fields to formulate Evidence-based guidelines for rehabilitation treatment after internal fixation of thoracolumbar spine fracture in adults ( version 2025) by integrating evidences from clinical researches and advanced rehabilitation concepts at home and abroad. A total number of 14 recommendations concerning the rehabilitation treatment with multimodal analgesia, psychological intervention, deep vein thrombosis prevention, core muscle and extremity exercise, appropriate use of braces, early weight-bearing, device-aided rehabilitation exercise, neuroregulatory therapy, rehabilitation team were put forward, aiming to standardize the post-operative rehabilitation process following internal fixation, promote the functional recovery, and enhance patients′ quality of life.

Acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fracture (ASOTLF) can lead to chronic low back pain, kyphosis deformity, pulmonary dysfunction, loss of mobility, and even life-threatening complications. Vertebral augmentation is currently the mainstream treatment method for this condition. In 2019, the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma and the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association collaboratively led the development of Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation for acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures. Six years later, with advances in clinical diagnosis and treatment techniques as well as accumulating evidence in related fields, the 2019 guideline requires updating. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, the Spinal Health Professional Committee of China Human Health Science and Technology Promotion Association, and the Minimally Invasive Orthopedics Professional Committee of Shaanxi Medical Doctor Association have organized experts in the field to develop the Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation of acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025) , based on the latest evidence-based medical researches. This guideline incorporates 3 recommendations retained from the 2019 version with updated strength of evidence, along with 12 new recommendations. It provides recommendations from six aspects of diagnosis, pain management, treatment option selection, prevention of postoperative complications, anti-osteoporosis therapy, and postoperative rehabilitation, aiming to provide a reference for standard treatment of vertebral augmentation for ASOTLF in hospitals at all levels.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of lamb′s tripe extract and vitamin B 12 capsule (LTEVB 12C) on chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) at different locations (antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, corpus lesser curvature, and corpus greater curvature). Methods:From August 2011 to January 2013, 715 patients with CAG in a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial were enrolled from 16 tertiary first-class hospitals across the country, including the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University, Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University, the First Hospital of Jilin University, West China Hospital of Sichuan University, etc., there were 476 cases in the LTEVB 12C group and 239 cases in the placebo group. The patients of the LTEVB 12C group received LTEVB 12C, and the patients of placebo group received LTEVB 12C mimetic, all the medications were taken 3 capsules each time and 3 times a day after meals, and the treatment course of 2 groups were both 6 months. The efficacy evaluation criteria included the effective rate (a decrease of ≥1 in histopathological score compared with baseline after 6 months of treatment) and the reversal rate (a decrease of ≥ 2 in histopathological score compared with baseline after 6 months of treatment in the patients with moderate to severe CAG). The impact of lesion sites on the therapeutic effects of LTEVB 12C was analyzed by logistic regression analysis. The two-way unordered Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel chi-square test considering the center effect and Pearson chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:The effective rates of chronic inflammation at the antrum greater curvature and corpus greater curvature (23.3%, 110/473 vs. 13.0%, 31/239; 20.3%, 96/472 vs. 12.6%, 30/239), the effective rates of atrophy at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, corpus lesser curvature, and the corpus greater curvature (27.0%, 118/437 vs. 15.7%, 34/216; 29.2%, 126/432 vs. 18.5%, 38/205; 27.8%, 121/435 vs. 16.7%, 36/216; 32.5%, 127/391 vs. 19.8%, 37/187; 33.0%, 119/361 vs. 21.8%, 39/179), and the effective rates of intestinal metaplasia at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, and the corpus lesser curvature (45.0%, 112/249 vs. 29.8%, 31/104; 53.8%, 86/160 vs. 33.9%, 21/62; 45.8%, 103/225 vs. 24.0%, 25/104; 51.9%, 83/160 vs. 28.3%, 17/60) of the LTEVB 12C group were all higher than those of the placebo group, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=10.76, 6.39, 9.69, 7.91, 11.05, 9.62, 8.57, 5.20, 7.11, 12.45, and 6.73; all P<0.05). The reversal rates of chronic inflammation at the corpus lesser curvature and corpus greater curvature (5.2%, 12/231 vs. 0, 0/123; 4.7%, 8/170 vs. 0, 0/88), the reversal rates of atrophy at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, corpus lesser curvature, and the corpus greater curvature (6.8%, 22/323 vs. 1.3%, 2/151; 9.2%, 29/315 vs. 1.4%, 2/144; 14.2%, 38/267 vs. 2.5%, 3/121; 20.8%, 35/168 vs. 5.8%, 4/69), and the reversal rates of intestinal metaplasia at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, and the corpus lesser curvature (29.8%, 39/131 vs. 9.1%, 4/44; 41.0%, 32/78 vs. 12.5%, 3/24; 33.3%, 44/132 vs. 4.8%, 3/63; 50.0%, 37/74 vs. 8.7%, 2/23) of the LTEVB 12C group were all higher than those of the placebo group, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=6.58, 5.12, 5.60, 8.61, 11.43, 6.59, 7.30, 4.95, 15.92, 7.62; all P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the effective rates and reversal rates of active inflammation at different locations between the LTEVB 12C group and the placebo group (all P>0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis (taking the antrum lesser curvature as the reference) further confirmed that the reversal rates of chronic inflammation ( OR=0.22, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 0.07 to 0.67; OR=0.24, 95% CI: 0.07 to 0.80), atrophy ( OR=0.28, 95% CI: 0.16 to 0.49; OR=0.28, 95% CI: 0.16 to 0.49), and intestinal metaplasia ( OR=0.42, 95% CI: 0.24 to 0.77; OR=0.20, 95% CI: 0.08 to 0.52) at the corpus lesser curvature and corpus greater curvature were all higher than those at the antrum lesser curvature, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). There were no statistically siginificant differences in the reversal rates of the aforementioned pathological features between the antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, and the antrum lesser curvature (all P>0.05). Conclusion:LTEVB 12C can achieve good efficacy in the treatment of CAG, and the chronic inflammation, atrophy, and intestinal metaplasia at multiple locations are improved, especially at the corpus lesser curvature and the corpus greater curvature.

Objective To understand the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of bacterial strains isolated from blood cultures at Yunyang County People's Hospital from 2019 to 2023.Methods The data of bacterial isolates from blood samples and the results of antimicrobial susceptibility testing were analyzed retrospectively from 2019 to 2023 at Yunyang County People's Hospital.Results A total of 3 789 bacterial strains were isolated from blood culture,including 1 931(51.0％)strains of Gram negative bacteria and 1 858(49.0％)strains of Gram positive bacteria.Coagulase negative Staphylococcus(33.3％),Escherichia coli(25.4％),Klebsiella pneumoniae(13.7％),Staphylococcus aureus(9.9％),and Enterobacter cloacae(1.8％)were the top five bacterial pathogens.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing showed that the prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains was 27.1％in S.aureus,34.5％in S.epidermidis,and 49.9％in other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus.Methicillin resistant strains(MRSA,MRSE,and other MRCNS)showed significantly higher resistance rates to most antibiotics than corresponding methicillin-susceptible strains(MSSA,MSSE,and other MSCNS).No staphylococcal isolates were resistant to vancomycin,teicoplanin,linezolid,or tigecycline.Enterococcus faecium showed significantly higher resistance rate to antibiotics than Enterococcus faecalis.No enterococcal strains were resistant to vancomycin,teicoplanin,linezolid,or tigecycline.No streptococcal isolates were found resistant to vancomycin or linezolid.Serratia marcescens strains had a resistance rate of 25.0％to carbapenems.All other Enterobacterales species showed a resistance rate of less than 10.0％to carbapenems.No Enterobacterales isolates were found resistant to tigecycline.The resistance rates of P.aeruginosa to imipenem and meropenem were 5.7％and 3.8％,respectively.No P.aeruginosa isolates were found resistant to colistin.The resistance rates of Acinetobacter baumannii to imipenem and meropenem were 41.4％and 38.0％,respectively.Conclusions The proportion of Gram negative bacteria is slightly higher than that of Gram positive bacteria in the bacterial isolates from blood samples at Yunyang County People's Hospital.The prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS is relatively high,while A.baumannii and S.marcescens showed high resistance rates to carbapenems.Antimicrobial resistance surveillance should be strengthened for the bacterial isolates from blood samples in order to learn the changing resistance profiles,use antibiotics reasonably,and prevent the spread of drug-resistant bacteria.

This study was aimed at identifying the pathogenic bacteria responsible for the death of a young tiger at the Fujian Meihua Mountain South China Tiger Breeding Research Institute.Tissue samples from the lungs,liver,and intestines of the deceased tiger were collected,and the bacteria were cultured inasterile environment.The bacterial strains were characterized according to their morphological and molecular biological properties,including assessment of virulence genes and antibiotic resistance genes,mouse lethality tests,and antibiotic susceptibility evaluations.A predominant bacterial strain isolated from the liver of the deceased tiger was identified as enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli(ETEC)strain Tiger22513F.Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene revealed that the Tiger22513F strain exhibited close genetic similarity to the reference strain ETEC(MF919609.1),with 99.9%nucleotide similarity,and resided on the same evolutionary branch.The Tiger22513F strain contained 11 antibiotic resistance genes(tetA,sul1,sul3,cmlA,floR,blaTEM,blaSHV,blaCMY-2,qnrA,qnrS,and qnrD)along with five virulence genes(VT1,fyuA,tsh,iucD,and ST).Mouse lethality tests indicated significant pathogenicity toward mice,affecting primarily the lungs,liver,and intestines.Antibiotic susceptibility testing demonstrated that this strain exhibited resistance to various classes of beta-lactam antibiotics,as well as quinolones and aminoglycosides.This investigation successfully isolated a multi-drug resistant enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli strain with pronounced pathogenicity from the liver of a deceased tiger;thus providing valuable scientific insights for clinical diagnosis,as well as prevention and control measures,against ETEC infections in South China tigers.

The aim of this study is to identify the cause of death of a South China tiger cub at the Meihuashan breeding institute of Fujian Province.Pathogenic bacteria were isolated and cultured from liver,spleen,lung and other tissue samples of the dead South China tiger aseptically.The iso-lated bacteria were identified through morphological observation,biochemical characterization,sequence analysis of housekeeping gene gyrB,virulence gene detection,animal pathogenicity test and drug sensitivity test.A pathogenic Aeromonas hydrophila strain,designated FJ/Tiger-201809 was successfully isolated from the trachea of dead South China tiger.The nucleotide sequence ho-mology between the isolate and 11 strains of Aeromonas gyrB ranged from 91.2％to 99.1％,with the highest homology of 99.1％observed with Aeromonas hydrophila(AF208251.1).Genetic evo-lution analysis showed that the isolated strain FJ/Tiger-201809 was in the same evolutionary branch as other reference strains of Aeromonas hydrophila and was closely related.The pathoge-nicity test in mice showed artificial infection of mice with the strain resulted in varying degrees of lesions in several organs of the mice,and the median lethal dose(LD50)was 1 × 107.8 CFU/mL.Virulence gene test results showed that the isolate FJ/Tiger-201809 carried two virulence genes,aer and act.The results of drug sensitivity test showed that FJ/Tiger-201809 was highly sensitive to enrofloxacin and ampicillin among 18 commonly used antibiotics,relatively sensitive to penicil-lin G and doxycycline,and resistant to the other 14 antibiotics.In conclusion,this study isolated and identified a strain of Aeromonas hydrophila from a dead South China tiger with multiple drug resistance and strong pathogenicity,which provided an important reference for the prevention and control of bacterial diseases in South China tiger.

Background and purpose:There are few studies on the quality of life after transanal total mesorectal excision(TaTME)for rectal cancer,and there is a lack of evidence-based research.This study aimed to evaluate the impact of TaTME in comparison to laparoscopic total mesorectal excision(LaTME)on postoperative quality of life in patients.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical and pathological data from rectal cancer patients who underwent LaTME and TaTME between September 2019 and September 2022 at Renhe Hospital,Baoshan District,Shanghai,and Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center.All the patients completed a set of validated questionnaires one year postoperatively,including the EORCT QLQ-C30,Low Anterior Resection Syndrome(LARS)score,International Prostate Symptom Score(IPSS),Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7(GAD-7),and Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9).Comparative analysis of these survey results was performed.The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Renhe Hospital,Baoshan District,Shanghai.The Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology(STROBE)checklist was followed for this study.Results:A total of 39 patients in the TaTME group and 38 patients in the LaTME group were included.There were no statistically significant differences between two groups regarding demographic variables such as gender and age,as well as clinical factors including tumor distance from the anal verge,tumor stage,and preoperative neoadjuvant treatment protocols.Analysis of EORCT QLQ-C30 results indicated equivalent overall quality of life between the two groups;however,the TaTME group reported significantly more severe insomnia(P=0.020).No significant differences were observed in LARS severity or total scores between the groups,though the TaTME group demonstrated superior functional outcomes in terms of incontinence for liquid stools and clustering of stools(P=0.007,P=0.004).Additionally,both groups exhibited comparable results in IPSS,and levels of depression and anxiety.Conclusion:The findings suggest that TaTME and LaTME yield similar outcomes in terms of anal and urinary function,overall quality of life,and psychological health,indicating that it is a viable and safe alternative to LaTME in terms of postoperative quality of life.

Purpose: Biomarkers predicting clinically significant prostate cancer (sPC) before biopsy are currently lacking. This study aimed to develop a non-invasive urine test to predict sPC in at-risk men using urinary metabolomic profiles. Materials and Methods: Urine samples from 934 at-risk subjects and 268 treatment-naïve PC patients were subjected to liquid chromatography/mass spectrophotometry (LC-MS)-based metabolomics profiling using both C18 and hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) column analyses. Four models were constructed (training cohort [n=647]) and validated (validation cohort [n=344]) for different purposes. Model I differentiates PC from benign cases. Models II, III, and a Gleason score model (model GS) predict sPC that is defined as National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN)-categorized favorable-intermediate risk group or higher (Model II), unfavorable-intermediate risk group or higher (Model III), and GS ≥7 PC (model GS), respectively. The metabolomic panels and predicting models were constructed using logistic regression and Akaike information criterion. Results: The best metabolomic panels from the HILIC column include 25, 27, 28 and 26 metabolites in Models I, II, III, and GS, respectively, with area under the curve (AUC) values ranging between 0.82 and 0.91 in the training cohort and between 0.77 and 0.86 in the validation cohort. The combination of the metabolomic panels and five baseline clinical factors that include serum prostate-specific antigen, age, family history of PC, previously negative biopsy, and abnormal digital rectal examination results significantly increased AUCs (range 0.88–0.91). At 90% sensitivity (validation cohort), 33%, 34%, 41%, and 36% of unnecessary biopsies were avoided in Models I, II, III, and GS, respectively. The above results were successfully validated using LC-MS with the C18 column. Conclusions Urinary metabolomic profiles with baseline clinical factors may accurately predict sPC in men with elevated risk before biopsy.
