Nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF), predominantly affecting the elderly, can lead to intractable pain, vertebral collapse, progressive kyphotic deformity, and neurological impairment, significantly compromising patients′ quality of life. There exists considerable debate on diagnosis and management of OVF, encompassing key issues such as clinical diagnosis and staging criteria for nonunion, surgical indications and procedure selection, and postoperative rehabilitation planning. Currently, there lacks standardized clinical guideline and expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of OVF nonunion in China. To address this gap, Minimally Invasive Surgery Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Osteoporosis Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Prevention and Rehabilitation Committee for Osteoporosis of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery Branch of China Association for Geriatric Care jointly organized domestic experts in spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rehabilitation to formulate the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures ( version 2025), based on existing literature and clinical experience and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and practicality. The guideline provided 13 evidence-based recommendations encompassing diagnosis and treatment of OVF nonunion, aiming to standardize its clinical management.

BACKGROUND:In orthodontic treatment,full-mouth treatment is usually used to treat single-root severely twisted teeth,and single-tooth treatment is less common.OBJECTIVE:To design a personalized orthodontic device based on biomechanical principles to address the rotation of teeth 11,12,13,21,22,and 23,and evaluate the device's impact on tooth movement using three-dimensional finite element method.METHODS:Based on the biomechanical principle of tooth rotation and movement,a personalized orthodontic device was made by digital design combined with three-dimensional printing,so that the personalized orthodontic device and the tooth formed an anchorage system.The absolute anchorage of the micro-implant was used to precisely control the single-root twisted tooth in the three-dimensional direction.The CBCT data of the maxillary alveolar bone and tooth tissue of a female volunteer were collected.The three-dimensional finite element models of the twisted tooth-periodontal ligament-maxillary bone-personalized orthodontic device were established using Mimics,Geomagic Wrap,SolidWorks,3-matic Research 15.0,and Ansys Workbench software.The equivalent stress distribution characteristics of the personalized orthodontic device,the movement trend of the tooth,and the equivalent stress distribution characteristics of the periodontal ligament were calculated under a thrust of 60 g.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The maximum equivalent stress observed on the personalized orthodontic device was 47.71 MPa.(2)The initial tooth displacement under the device demonstrated a rotational trend.The peak equivalent stress in the periodontal ligament was concentrated at the neck,while lower stress was observed in the apex region.(3)The safety and feasibility of the personalized orthodontic device designed in this study for severely rotated single-rooted teeth were preliminarily verified through finite element analysis.

Diabetes is a common chronic non-infectious disease. Diabetic patients not only suffer from metabolic disorders, but are also prone to immune deficiencies and are at a higher risk of being infected with human papillomavirus (HPV). Many studies at home and abroad have shown that the HPV infection rate of patients with diabetes is higher than that of non-diabetic patients. Patients with diabetes can benefit from HPV vaccination, and the tolerance is good. HPV vaccination is recommended for diabetic patients. This article reviews the research on diabetes, HPV infection, and HPV vaccine, which will provide references for HPV vaccination in diabetic patients.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of comprehensive treatment for synchronous primary advanced gastric and esophageal cancer by propensity score matching(PSM).Methods A total of 2 551 patients with advanced gastric cancer admitted to Jiangsu Province Hospital of Chinese Medicine from January 2013 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.Among them,45 patients with synchronous primary esophageal cancer were distributed to the observation group,and 2 506 patients without esophageal cancer were distributed to the control group.Through the PSM method,the control group was matched with the observation group and the equilibrium samples of covariates between two groups were obtained.The overall survival(OS)between the two groups were compared.Results Both observation and control group contained 45 patients in this study.According to the treatment regimen,the patients in the observation group was divided into radical resection treatment subgroup(n=22)and chemoradiotherapy(CRT)subgroup(n=23).In the radical resection subgroup,4 patients underwent the simultaneous surgical resection of gastric and esophageal tumors through proximal gastrectomy with the Ivor Lewis operation.Eighteen patients underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)of their esophageal tumors and gastric cancer radical resection.Radical resection of gastric cancer combined with preoperative chemoradiotherapy of esophageal cancer was performed in the CRT subgroup.Survival analysis showed that OS in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group(P=0.042)and there was no significant difference in OS between the radical resection subgroup and the control group(P=0.799).The 1-,3-,and 5-year survival rates of the patients in the CRT subgroup were significantly lower than those of the control group(P=0.003).While the 1-,3-,and 5-year survival rates of the patients in the radical resection subgroup were not statistically significant,compared to those of the CRT subgroup(P=0.071).Conclusions Multidisciplinary and comprehensive treatment can significantly improve the prognosis of patients with synchronous primary advanced gastric and esophageal cancer.Radical resection of gastric cancer combined with ESD of esophageal cancer is an optional treatment for patients with gastric cancer complicated with early esophageal cancer.Radical resection of gastric cancer combined with CRT of esophageal cancer can improve the prognosis of patients with advanced gastric cancer complicated with unresectable esophageal cancer.

Objective:To investigate the long-term prognosis and failure mode of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who achieved clinical complete remission (cCR) after receiving radical radio (chemo) therapy.Methods:Clinical data of 183 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma eligible for inclusion criteria who received treatment in our hospital from January 2009 to December 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. The factors that affected the long-term prognosis of patients were identified, and the failure mode of cCR patients and the prognosis after failure were analyzed. SPSS 19.0 statistical software was used for data analysis.Results:As of the follow-up date, the 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year overall survival (OS) rates and disease-free survival (DFS) rates of the entire group were 83.1%, 53.4%, 36.2%, 12.8% and 68.9%, 45.9%, 30.5%, 12.0%, respectively. The median OS and DFS were 41.3 months and 33.4 months. The results of multivariate analysis showed that cT staging, cN staging and prescribed dose were the independent factors affecting the OS ( P=0.001, <0.001, 0.003); hoarseness, lesion length, cT staging, cN staging and prescribed dose were the independent factors that affected the DFS ( P=0.002, 0.033, 0.009, <0.001, 0.003). In the whole group, 72 cases (39.3%) had local regional recurrence, 58 cases (31.7%) had distant metastasis, and 26 cases (14.2%) had local regional recurrence with distant metastasis. Among 104 patients after treatment failure, the prognosis of patients receiving salvage treatment was significantly better than that of their counterparts receiving maintenance treatment ( χ2=39.153, P<0.001). Conclusions:The long-term prognosis of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who achieved cCR after receiving radical radio (chemo) therapy is still unsatisfactory. Clinically, it is necessary to strengthen the clinical observation and follow-up of these patients. The main treatment failure mode of cCR patients is local regional recurrence. Active salvage treatment can significantly improve clinical prognosis of these patients.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effects of transperitoneal and retroperitoneal laparoscopic decortication in the treatment of simple renal cysts.Methods:PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP and WanFang databases were searched, All studies about comparing transperitoneal and retroperitoneal laparoscopic decortication for simple renal cysts were included. The evaluation indicators included operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage time, postoperative hospital stay, and complication rate. Statistical analysis of the data using RevMan 5.3 software.Results:A total of 14 control studies were included, 409 cases in the transperitoneal group and 452 cases in the retroperitoneal group. Meta-analysis demonstrated that compared with the transperitoneal group, the retroperitoneal group had shorter operation time ( MD=8.81, 95% CI: 3.79-13.82, P<0.01), less intraoperative blood loss ( MD=4.89, 95% CI: 1.40-8.38, P<0.01), and shorter postoperative hospital stay ( MD=0.60, 95% CI: 0.24-0.96, P<0.01). However, there were not significant differences between the two approaches in postoperative drainage time ( MD=-0.12, 95% CI: -0.26-0.03, P=0.13) and complication rate ( OR=1.47, 95% CI: 0.48-4.47, P=0.05). Conclusions:Compared with the transperitoneal, the retroperitoneal laparoscopic decortication has the advantages of short operation time, less intraoperative blood loss and short postoperative hospital stay. Therefore, retroperitoneal laparoscopic decortication is expected to be the first choice for the treatment of simple renal cysts.

Objective To determine the spectrum of conjunctival flora and the antibiotic susceptibility profiles of patients scheduled for penetrating intraocular surgeries.Methods A prospective case control study was performed.A total of 192 patients (192 eyes) scheduled for penetrating intraocular surgeries at the Fourth People's Hospital of Shenyang from February to August 2015 were enrolled.Samples from the conjunctival sac were collected before instillation of any ophthalmic solutions for both aerobic and anaerobic culture.The positive rate and bacterial spectrum were observed.Bacterial isolates were tested for antibiotic susceptibility to 7 commonly used ophthalmic antibiotics using automated drug resistance analyzing system.The research was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Fourth People's Hospital of Shenyang.Results Totally 91 strains were collected from 81 conjunctival samples during aerobic culture,the positive rate was 42.19％.Staphylococcus epidermidis was the most common microorganism (64.84％),followed by Staphylococcus lentus (7.69％) and Staphylococcus aureus (3.30％).Coagulatase negtive Staphylococcus (CNS) accounted for 80.22％ of the positively cultured aerobes.For anaerobic culture,a total of 28 strains were isolated from 28 conjunctival samples,the positive rate was 14.58％ Propionibacterium acnes was the predominant species (71.43％),followed by Finegoldia magna (10.71％).Majority of the CNS were sensitive to gentamycin and vancomycin,with resistance rates lower than 10％,but their resistance rate to erythromycin and ceftazidime was 87.67％ and 63.01％,respectively.Resistance rate of these CNS to levofloxacin,ciprofloxacin,and moxifloxacin was 42.47％,39.73％ and 17.81％,respectively.Multidrug resistance to at least 3 antibiotic classes was present in 38.36％ of the CNS.Conclusions Bacteria in the conjunctiva sac of preoperative patients are resistant to various ophthalmic antibiotics.To follow-up the bacterial distribution and antibiotic resistance is great meaningful in the prophylactic and treatment in ocular surgery-related infections.
