Poor water solubility is the primary obstacle preventing the development of many pharmacologically active compounds into oral preparations. Self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems(SNEDDS) have become a widely used strategy to enhance the oral bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs by inducing a supersaturated state, thereby improving their apparent solubility and dissolution rate. However, the supersaturated solutions formed in SNEDDS are thermodynamically unstable systems with solubility levels exceeding the crystalline equilibrium solubility, making them prone to drug precipitation in the gastrointestinal tract and ultimately hindering drug absorption. Therefore, maintaining a stable supersaturated state is crucial for the effective delivery of poorly soluble drugs. Incorporating polymers as precipitation inhibitors(PPIs) into the formulation of supersaturated self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems(S-SNEDDS) can inhibit drug aggregation and crystallization, thus maintaining a stable supersaturated state. This has emerged as a novel preparation strategy and a key focus in SNEDDS research. This review explores the preparation design of SNEDDS and the technical challenges involved, with a particular focus on polymer-based S-SNEDDS for enhancing the solubility and oral bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs. It further elucidates the mechanisms by which polymers participate in transmembrane transport, summarizes the principles by which polymers sustain a supersaturated state, and discusses strategies for enhancing drug absorption. Altogether, this review provides a structured framework for the development of S-SNEDDS preparations with stable quality and reduced development risk, and offers a theoretical reference for the application of S-SNEDDS technology in improving the oral bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs.

Objective To investigate the differences in personality traits between the patients with anx-ious depression(AND)and non-anxious depression(NAD)in order to provide the possible basis for early find of the patients with AND.Methods A total of 572 adult patients with depression visiting in the psychiatric outpatient department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2022 to December 2022 were selected to conduct the questionnaire survey.General demographic questionnaire,Self-rating Depression Scale(SDS),Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale(GAD-7)and Minnesota Multiphasic Per-sonality Inventory(MMPI)were collected and analyzed.The patients with GAD-7 total score ≥5 points served as the AND group(n=499)and those with GAD total score＜5 points served as the NAD group(n=73).The correlation between the general demographic questionnaire,SDS and GAD-7 with MMPI was ana-lyzed.Results There were statistically significant differences in the place of residence,number of children in a family,education years,MMPI total score and high score proportions of psychopathy,athopia,hysteria,depres-sion,hypochondriasis,paranoea,schizophrenia,social introversion and hypomania dimensions between the two groups(P＜0.05).The SDS and GAD-7 scores in the AND group were higher than those in the NAD group(P＜0.05).The MMPI total score,athopia,hysteria,depression,hypochondriasis,paranoea,schizophrenia,so-cial introversion and hypomania were positively correlated with SDS and GAD-7(P＜0.05).Conclusion The patients with depression accompanied by anxiety symptom could be early identified by the MMPI testing results.

Objective : To explore the molecular mechanism of long non-coding RNA metastasis associated lung ad- enocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) / microRNA-15b-5p (miR-15b-5p) regulating the Wnt / β-catenin pathway in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) -induced chondrocyte injury in osteoarthritis． Methods : TDC5 cells were treated with 5 mg / L LPS to establish the osteoarthritis cell injury model，and the expression levels of MALAT1 and miR-15b-5p in the cells were detected by RT-qPCR. The MTT，flow cytometry，Alizarin red staining，and ELISA were used to as- sess the effects of MALAT1 and miR-15b-5p on LPS-induced chondrocyte injury．The dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was used to examine the regulatory relationship between MALAT1 and miR-15b-5p．Western blot assay was used to evaluate the expression of relevant proteins． Results : In LPS-induced ATDC5 cells，MALAT1 expression decreased (P＜0. 05) ．Compared to the control group，the LPS group exhibited reduced cell activity，an increased apoptosis rate，elevated levels of tumor necrosis factor-α , interleukin-6，and interleukin-1 β , a higher number of calcified nodules，increased expression levels of extracellular matrix degradation-related proteins MMP13 and AD- AMTS5，decreased expression levels of Collagen Ⅱ and Aggrecan，and increased protein expression levels of Wnt1 and β-catenin (P＜0. 05) ．Overexpression of MALAT1 could mitigate the effects of LPS on chondrocyte activity， apoptosis，inflammatory response，osteogenic differentiation，extracellular matrix degradation，and the Wnt / β-cate- nin pathway (P＜0. 05) ．Additionally，the overexpression of miR-15b-5p enhanced the impact of LPS on chondro- cytes (P＜0. 05) ． Conclusion MALAT1 is lowly expressed in LPS-induced chondrocytes，and it alleviates LPS- induced chondrocyte injury by targeting miR-15b-5p to inhibit the Wnt / β-catenin pathway．

Objective:To analyze and predict the future trend of the premature mortality of major chronic and non-communicable diseases in Anhui Province, evaluate the implementation of the "Healthy China 2030" Plan, and explore its influencing factors.Methods:Using data from death-cause surveillance and statistical yearbooks in Anhui, the trend prediction and analysis on influencing factors were conducted by using methods such as time series accumulation and logarithmic linear Joinpoint regression, principal component regression.Results:In Anhui, 28.10% of the deaths were premature ones, of which 84.40% were attributed to chronic and non-communicable diseases. In premature deaths attributed to chronic and non-communicable diseases, the deaths caused by malignant tumor and cardiovascular disease accounted for 45.88% and 41.65% respectively. The prediction results showed that the premature mortality of major chronic and non-communicable diseases would decrease in Anhui in the future, and by 2030, the goal in the "Healthy China 2030" Plan would be reached only in rural area. To reduce premature death, it is necessary to pay attention to the prevention and control of malignant tumor and cardiovascular disease. Men in urban area are the key population. Factors that reflect urban infrastructure had a significant impact on premature mortality of major chronic non-communicable diseases, such as garden and green space area per capita. Factors such as concentration of PM 2.5 had a negative impact on premature mortality of chronic non-communicable diseases, while factors such as garden and green space area per capita had a positive impact. Conclusions:Disease burden caused by chronic and non-communicable diseases, such as malignant tumor, exits in Anhui. Men in urban area are key population in the prevention and control of chronic and non-communicable diseases in the future.

Factors affecting male fertility include lifestyle,psychology,environment.and so on.Pathogenic microorganisms in the genitourinary system can also lead to decline of male fertility.However,doctors tend to ignore the effects of immune responses and oxidative stress caused by pathogenic microorganisms on fertility,thus delaying the optimal time of treatment.This paper reviews the relationship between bacteria(such as Escherichia coli,Helicobacter pylori),viruses((severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2,human papilloma virus),and other pathogenic microorganisms(mycoplasma and chlamydia)and male infertility,and summarizes the latest research progress,aiming to provide guidance for the multidimensional treatment and to provide new ideas for the prevention of male infertility.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Chronic refractory wound (CRW) is one of the most challengeable issues in clinic due to complex pathogenesis, long course of disease and poor prognosis. Experts need to conduct systematic summary for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW due to complex pathogenesis and poor prognosis, and standard guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW should be created. The Guideline forthe diagnosis and treatment of chronic refractory wounds in orthopedic trauma patients ( version 2023) was created by the expert group organized by the Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Chinese Orthopedic Association, Chinese Society of Traumatology, and Trauma Orthopedics and Multiple Traumatology Group of Emergency Resuscitation Committee of Chinese Medical Doctor Association after the clinical problems were chosen based on demand-driven principles and principles of evidence-based medicine. The guideline systematically elaborated CRW from aspects of the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, postoperative management, complication prevention and comorbidity management, and rehabilitation and health education, and 9 recommendations were finally proposed to provide a reliable clinical reference for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW.

Objective:To investigate the difference in the efficacy of extended trochanteric osteotomy (ETO) and subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy (SSO) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) for Crowe type IV developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).Methods:Forty patients (51 hips) who underwent primary THA for Crowe type IV DDH from April 2012 to August 2020 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were classified into ETO (extended greater trochanteric osteotomy) group and SSO(subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy) group. There were 12 patients (14 hips) in the ETO group, with 3 males and 9 females, aged 49.9±16.7 years old (range, 22-75 years old) and 28 patients (37 hips) in the SSO group, with 7 males and 21 females, aged 50.3±14.0 years (range, 22-76 years). In both groups, Harris hip score (HHS), leg length discrepancy, limp, Trendelenburg sign were used to evaluate the functional results and anteroposterior radiographs of the pelvis were taken at each follow-up to assess bone healing at the osteotomy site, periprosthetic osteolysis, bone ingrowth and periprosthetic loosening. Complications were recorded and analyzed.Results:All 51 hips were followed up for at least 24 months. The operative time and total blood loss was 116.8±14.2 vs. 128.3±19.2 min and 650.8±191.4 vs. 808.3±151.3 ml in the ETO group and the SSO group with significant difference ( t=2.04, P=0.047; t=3.08, P=0.003) respectively. At the follow-up of 24 months the HHS of ETO and SSO groups were 94.8±6.3 vs. 93.9±4.9 points and the leg length discrepancy was 4.6±2.2 vs. 5.2±3.0 mm. The positive rate of Trendelenburg's sign was 7% vs. 16% and the incidence of limp was 17% vs. 29% in the ETO group and the SSO group with no significant difference ( t=0.54, P=0.591; t=0.68, P=0.499; P=0.657; P=0.693). The length of femoral shortening in the ETO group and SSO group was 30.8±4.1 vs 35.3±7.9 mm with significant difference ( t=2.02, P=0.049). Time for bone healing at the osteotomy site was 5.8±1.5 vs. 6.0±1.4 months and the incidence of intraoperative femoral fractures was 36% and vs. 65% with no significant difference ( t=0.45, P=0.657; χ 2=3.52, P=0.061). Bone in-growth (or bone on-growth) fixation was obtained for all acetabular and femoral prostheses, with no hips of prosthesis displacement, periprosthetic osteolysis, or dislocation. Conclusion:Total hip arthroplasty for Crowe type IV DDH can achieve satisfactory clinical efficacy with similar functional recovery and rate of complication in extended trochanteric osteotomy and subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy. However, the extended greater trochanter osteotomy can reduce the operation time, blood loss and length of femoral shortening.
