ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and radiographic outcomes of manipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation in the treatment of distal radius fractures. MethodsThe clinical data of 1051 patients with distal radius fractures were retrospectively collected from five hospitals included in the Jiangsu Diagnosis and Treatment Data Platform for Traditional Chinese Medicine（TCM） Dominant Diseases. Propensity score matching at a 1∶4 ratio was applied， resulting in 580 cases selected for final analysis， which comprised 448 patients in the TCM group（manipulative reduction plus small splint fixation） and 132 in the surgical treatment group（open reduction and internal fixation）. Each group was further stratified into type A， B， and C subgroups based on AO fracture classification. Radiographic indicators including palmar tilt， radial inclination， and radial height were compared between groups before treatment and 1 day， 1 week， and 4-6 weeks after treatment， and pain visual analog scale（VAS） scores before treatment and 1 week and 4-6 weeks after treatment were also compared. Wrist joint function was assessed 12 weeks after treatment， using the Dienst wrist function score and the Gartland and Werley（G-W） wrist function score. Additionally， the radiographic indicators at different timepoints and the 12-week wrist function levels were compared between groups across different fracture types. ResultsNo statistically significant difference was observed in radiographic indicators and VAS scores at all timepoints before and after treatment， as well as wrist joint function grades assessed by the Dienst score and the G-W score at 12 weeks after treatment （P＞0.05）. Compared to those before treatment， both groups showed increased palmar tilt， radial inclination， and radial height 1 week and 4-6 weeks after treatment， and decreased VAS scores （P＜0.05）. Compared to those 1 week after treatment， both groups showed a decrease in palmar tilt， an increase in radial inclination and radial height， and a reduction in VAS score 4-6 weeks after treatment（P＜0.05）. In type A and B subgroups， the surgical treatment group had a higher radial inclination than the TCM group 4-6 weeks after treatment， while in the type C subgroup， a higher radial height was shown in the surgical treatment group than in the TCM group 4-6 weeks after treatment（P＜0.05）. In type C subgroup， there was significant difference between groups in the wrist joint function by G-W scores 12 weeks after treatment（P＜0.05）. ConclusionManipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation can maintain fracture alignment and alleviate pain in treating distal radius fractures， which achieves therapeutic outcomes comparable to surgical treatment. It is particularly suitable for type A and B fractures and can be considered an effective treatment option for distal radius fractures.

ObjectiveTo construct an automatic measurement model for palmar tilt and radial inclination suitable for traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） clinical scenarios， and to validate its accuracy and efficiency in TCM manipulative reduction settings. MethodsData on anteroposterior （AP） and lateral X-rays of distal radius fractures were collected from patients admitted to 18 TCM/ integrated TCM and western medicine hospitals in Jiangsu province between September 1st， 2023， and September 1st， 2024， via the Jiangsu Diagnosis and Treatment Big Data Platform for TCM Dominant Diseases. A medical image segmentation framework based on multi-scale feature fusion and edge-awareness was employed， combined with anatomical knowledge specific to TCM orthopedics， to optimize the feature extraction strategy of an artificial intelligence （AI） model. This framework enabled automatic segmentation of fracture regions and measurement of distal radius palmar tilt and radial inclination. The accuracy of the AI model in measuring radial inclination and volar tilt was validated， and the measurement time and average time gain rate of the AI model were compared to those of manual measurement. ResultsA total of 15,444 AP and lateral X-ray images of distal radius fractures were collected， and were divided into a training set （11,144 images， 5066 AP and 6078 lateral）， a validation set （3700 images， 1840 AP and 1860 lateral）， and an independent test set （600 images， 300 AP and 300 lateral） after preprocessing. In the measurement of 300 AP X-rays in the independent test set for radial inclination， when the degree error between AI measurement and manual measurement was ＜3° and ＜5°， AI measurement accuracy was 83% and 93%， respectively. In 300 lateral X-rays in the test set for palmar tilt， when AI measurements had an error of ＜3° and ＜5° compared to manual measurements， corresponding accuracy rate was 78% and 90%， respectively. For 50 X-ray images， AI measurement time was （1.37±0.05） min for radial inclination while manual measurement time was （22.57±2.52） min （P＜0.001）； in terms of palmar tilt， the AI measurement time was （1.33±0.14） min， shorter than （23.70±2.80） min for manual measurement time （P＜0.001）. Average time gain rates for manual and AI measurements were 93.93% and 94.39% respectively. ConclusionAn automatic measurement model for palmar tilt and radial inclination in distal radius fractures has been established， enabling more accurate and efficient assessment as well as providing a tool to support the quantitative evaluation of the efficacy of TCM manipulative reduction and large-sample clinical research.

Objective To gain insights into the biological characteristics of different populations of Culex tritaeniorhynchus within and around the Yellow Sea wetland from the perspective of the occurrence of resistance, we investigated the levels of resistance to deltamethrin and kdr gene mutation in the wetland and its peripheral areas. Methods Specimens were collected from Cx. tritaeniorhynchus populations at two monitoring sites in the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area, and also from two populations in Yancheng City and the Liuhe District of Nanjing, and the resistance of these mosquitoes to deltamethrin was determined using the CDC biotest bottle method. For each concentration of deltamethrin assessed, a random subset of exposed specimens was selected for amplification of the kdr gene fragment, followed by Sanger sequencing to identify and analyze resistance-associated mutations. Results The LC50 levels of deltamethrin among mosquitoes from the four populations in Luhe, Yancheng, the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and the Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area were 2.048 5, 7.798 2, 3.473 3, and 17.695 5 mg/mL, respectively, with corresponding concentrations of deltamethrin ranging from 0.005 to 5.000,0.050 to 50.000,0.050 to 25.000 and 0.050 to 50.000 mg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the ranges of the KT50 values were 11.76-107.43, 67.05-216.30,29.77-107.43 and 28.40-329.51 min; the 1-h knockdown rates were 34.58%-99.15%, 9.52%-43.80%, 55.09%-73.01%, and 10.09%-68.07%; and the 24-h mortality rates were 12.15%-67.52%,9.52%-79.56%,13.17%-82.21%, and 11.01%-78.99%, respectively. With respect to kdr gene mutation, we assayed a total of 63,70,59, and 57 mosquitoes for the four populations, for which we detected L1014F mutation frequencies of 14.29%, 35.00%, 20.34%, and 31.58%, respectively, with a majority of these mutations being heterozygous for resistance. In addition, five adult mosquitoes were identified has having synonymous mutations at site 1011[i. e. , AAT(asparagine)mutation to AAC(asparagine)]. Conclusions Our findings revealed the clear resistance of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus to deltamethrin in the Yancheng region of the Yellow Sea wetland, and the resistance phenotype and kdr frequency of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment were comparable to those of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment, thereby indicating that the resistance of different populations of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus was homogeneous under the pressure of different insecticide selection within and around the wetland. However, the underlying mechanisms need to be further studied.

ObjectiveTo analyze the composition of respiratory virus pathogen spectrum and epidemiological characteristics among adult influenza-like illness (ILI) cases in Putuo District of Shanghai from 2015 to 2024, to summarize the epidemic patterns of respiratory viruses across different time periods and populations, and to provide scientific evidence for the prevention and control of adult respiratory virus infections in Putuo District of Shanghai. MethodsSurveillance data of 2 273 adult ILI cases from sentinel hospitals under the comprehensive surveillance system for acute respiratory infections in Putuo District of Shanghai from 2015 to 2024 were retrospectively collected. Descriptive epidemiological methods were adopted to analyze the temporal and population distribution characteristics of respiratory viruses, including influenza virus (IFV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), adenovirus (ADV), and human metapneumovirus (HMPV). The mixed infection status among different age groups was compared, and the distribution of influenza virus subtypes was described. SPSS 22.0 and WPS Office software were used for statistical analyses. ResultsThe overall detection rate of respiratory viruses in 2 273 adult ILI cases was 43.51%. The detection rate in females (45.48%) was significantly higher than that in males (41.25%), with statistical significance (χ²=4.113, P=0.043). Individuals aged 60 years old and above had the highest detection rate (47.41%) (χ²=8.430, P=0.014). The detection rates in winter (50.41%) and summer (48.42%) were higher than those in other seasons (χ²=47.028, P<0.001). The overall viral detection rate decreased after 2020 (χ²=208.411, P<0.001). Detection rates of various viruses varied by year, with IFV and ADV showing high rates from 2015 to 2019 (all P<0.001), while human coronavirus (HCoV) and rhinovirus/enterovirus (HRV/EV) exhibited higher rates from 2020 to 2022 (all P<0.001). Co-infection with IFV and HCoV was the most common, followed by co-infection with IFV and ADV, together accounting for 50.00% of all mixed infections. During the surveillance period, the detection rate of IFV was significantly higher than that of other respiratory viruses. Influenza B/Victoria lineage predominated in 2021, followed by successive predominance of influenza A(H1N1), A(H3N2), and the co-circulation of the two subtypes from 2022 to 2023. Influenza A(H1N1) re-emerged as the predominant subtype in the first half of 2024. ConclusionFrom 2015 to 2024, respiratory virus infections in adults prevailed in winter and summer, and people aged 60 years old and above were the key high-risk population. The detection rates of respiratory viruses declined after 2020. IFV was the predominant pathogen detected, and different influenza virus subtypes circulated alternately each year.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Qidan Tangshen Granules （芪丹糖肾颗粒， QTG） in the treatment of early diabetic kidney disease （DKD） with qi deficiency， blood stasis， and kidney deficiency syndrome， and to explore its mechanism. MethodsA double-blind， double-simulated method was used to enroll 200 patients with early DKD and qi deficiency， blood stasis， and kidney deficiency syndrome. Patients were randomly assigned in a 1∶1 ratio to the treatment group （100 cases） and the control group （100 cases）. The treatment group received QTG plus a valsartan capsule simulant， while the control group received valsartan capsules plus a QTG simulant， both for 12 weeks. The primary outcome was the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio （UACR）. Secondary outcomes included estimated glomerular filtration rate （eGFR）， fasting blood glucose （FBG）， 2-hour postprandial blood glucose （PBG）， glycated hemoglobin （HbA1c）， and traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome scores （including individual symptom scores for fatigue， dull complexion， soreness and weakness of the waist and knees， headache and chest pain， irritability， spontaneous sweating， thirst and polydipsia， polyphagia， polyuria， numbness of the limbs， and the total TCM syndrome score）. Oxidative stress markers including serum 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine （8-OHDG）， 3-nitrotyrosine （3-NT）， and superoxide dismutase （SOD） were also assessed. Clinical efficacy and TCM syndrome efficacy were evaluated after treatment， and routine blood tests， urinalysis， and liver function tests were conducted and adverse reaction during the tria was recorded to assess safety. ResultsA total of 191 patients completed the study （95 in the treatment group and 96 in the control group）. The treatment group showed significant reductions in UACR， FBG， PBG， and HbA1c levels after treatment （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. The single TCM symptom scores except for polyphagia and total TCM syndrome scores significantly decreased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared to the control group， the treatment group had signi-ficantly lower UACR， FBG， PBG levels， and total TCM syndrome scores， sinlge symptoms scores except for polyphagia and limb numbness （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Among 40 randomly selected patients （21 cases in the treatment group and 19 cases in the control group） for oxidative stress analysis， there were no significant differences in SOD， 3-NT， and 8-OHDG levels before and after treatment within or between groups （P＞0.05）. The overall effective rate in the treatment group was 64.2% （61/95） and 39.6% （38/96） in the control group， while the TCM syndrome efficacy rates were 80.0% （76/95） and 24.0% （23/96）， respectively， with the treatment group showing superior efficacy （P＜0.01）. No significant differences were observed in routine blood tests， urinalysis， or liver function indices before and after treatment in either group （P＞0.05）. The incidence of adverse reactions was 8.4% （8/95） in the treatment group and 9.4% （9/96） in the control group， with no statistically significant difference （P＞0.05）. ConclusionQTG can effectively reduce UACR and blood glucose levels， alleviate clinical symptoms， and improve clinical efficacy in patients with early DKD with qi deficiency， blood stasis， and kidney deficiency syndrome. The treatment is well-tolerated and safe， with no significant impact on oxidative stress markers.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of constructing a nomogram based on a combined model of clinical-pathological-imaging data for predicting postoperative recurrence/metastasis of breast cancer.Meth-ods:A retrospective study was conducted on 194 breast cancer patients who were admitted to the department of breast and thyroid surgery from June 2019 to June 2022.unvariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to screen independent predictors of postoperative recurrence/metastasis of breast cancer,and a model was con-structed based on the independent predictors.Another 83 breast cancer patients from July 2022 to February 2023 were taken as the validation set to verify the model with the ratio of 7∶3(training set∶validation set).Results:The postopera-tive recurrence/metastasis rate of breast cancer was 29.90％.Ki-67 expression level ≥20％,tumor location in the inner upper quadrant and outer upper quadrant,lesion size ≥20 mm,multiple lesions,and BI-RADS grade of 5 were indepen-dent risk factors for postoperative recurrence/metastasis of breast cancer(P＜0.05).PR positive expression was an inde-pendent protective factor for postoperative recurrence/metastasis of breast cancer(P＜0.05).The diagnostic performance of the combined clinical-pathological-imaging model(AUC:0.900)was superior to that of the clinical-pathological pa-rameters(AUC:0.655)and the MRI parameter model(AUC:0.857).In its nomogram model constructed based on a com-bined clinical-pathological-imaging model to predict breast cancer recurrence/metastasis after surgery,the AUC in the training set was 0.900(95％CI:0.859～0.942)with good discrimination,the maximum Yoden value was 0.710,the sensi-tivity was 0.931,and the specificity was 0.779,and the AUC in the validation set was 0.820(95％C/:0.712～0.928),well differentiated,with a maximum Yoden value of 0.554,a sensitivity of 0.630,and a specificity of 0.914.The theoretical and actual values of the calibration curves of the two sets were in good agreement,and the decision curve indicated the net benefit of the breast cancer recurrence-metastasis prediction model after surgery,which showed good predictive ability.Conclusion:The nomogram constructed based on the combined model of clinical-pathological-imaging data has good predictive ability,accuracy,and clinical applicability,which is helpful for clinicians to evaluate the risk of postoperative re-currence/metastasis of breast cancer.

Objective:To investigate the effect of COX6C on the proliferation of multiple myeloma(MM)cells and its mechanism of action.Methods:The expression of COX6C in MM cell lines were detected by RT-PCR.siRNA technology was used to knockdown COX6C expression in OPM2 cells.MTT assay and flow cytometry were employed to assess the effect of COX6C knockdown by siRNA on cell proliferation,mitochondrial membrane potential(Δ Ψm),and intracellular adenosine triphosphate(ATP)levels.The mitochondrial morphological changes in OPM2 cells pre-and post-siRNA-mediated COX6C knockdown were observed by transmission electron microscopy(TEM).Results:The relative expression level of COX6C was significantly increased in MM cell lines(P＜0.01).Following siRNA-mediated COX6C knockdown,OPM2 cell proliferation was inhibited,with viable cells accounting for 62.32％±3.43％and 47.01％±5.12％after 48 and 72 hours of culture,respectively.siRNA-mediated COX6C knockdown also caused significant reductions in mitochondrial membrane potential and intracellular ATP levels(P＜0.05),accompanied by mitochondrial shortening,swelling,and incomplete cristae structures.Conclusion:COX6C may promote the proliferation of MM cells by altering the mitochondrial structure and elevating intracellular ATP levels.

We report a family with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1(MEN1), in which the proband presented with primary amenorrhea and was diagnosed with both a pituitary prolactinoma and an ACTH-secreting adenoma. Genetic testing identified a heterozygous MEN1 gene c. 1449_1476del mutation in the proband, as well as in six additional family members, who exhibited variable clinical phenotypes. Following initial transsphenoidal pituitary surgery, the proband's symptoms and biochemical abnormalities persisted, with elevated ACTH and cortisol levels. Functional imaging using [ 68Ga]-DOTA-TATE PET/CT confirmed residual pituitary tumor tissue, and a second surgery resulted in biochemical remission.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of free anterolateral thigh perforator flap (ALTPF) for reconstruction of soft tissue defects in lower extremity in elderly patient.Methods:From February 2018 to August 2024, 24 elderly patients (14 males, 10 females. Age range: 70-89 years, mean age: 73.47 years) with soft tissue defects in lower extremity were treated with free ALTPFs in the Department of Hand Microsurgery, Sichuan Modern Hospital. All patients had comorbidities including chronic pulmonary diseases (10 cases), anaemia in various severity (15 cases), atherosclerosis (9 cases), diabetes mellitus (6 cases), hypertension (5 cases) and great saphenous varicose veins (4 cases). Fourteen patients were admitted to hospital though emergency department due to trauma. Of these patients, 2 underwent emergency flap transfer surgery, 12 had temporary wound coverage with negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) or bone cement, followed by flap surgery at 3-7 days later. Ten patients with chronic wounds were admitted through outpatient clinic and underwent flap surgery at approximately 7 days after multidisciplinary team consultation and completion of preoperative preparation. A total of 15 patients received blood transfusion: 3 before the surgery, 10 in the surgery and 2 after the surgery. Defect locations were: right calf and ankle (6 cases), right foot (5 cases), left calf and ankle (10 cases) and left foot (3 cases). Defect sizes ranged from 5.0 cm×7.0 cm to 9.0 cm×30.0 cm, with exposure of tendon, bone or internal fixation. The size of ALTPFs ranged from 6.0 cm×8.0 cm to 10.0 cm×40.0 cm. All artery of flaps was end-to-end anastomosed with the recipient artery, and the vein of flaps was anastomosed with the accompanying vein by recipient artery. Donor sites were either closed directly or reconstructed with skin grafts. All patients were included in postoperative follow-up via visit of outpatient clinic or WeChat for evaluation of flap and donor sites.Results:All 24 flaps survived. Two cases presented with venous occlusion after surgery and surgical exploration discovered: 1 patient had a long-segment venous thrombosis in the recipient vein and was treated with great saphenous vein transposition for re-anastomosis; the other had a deep haematoma compressing of the flap, which was removed surgically with haemostasis. Follow-up lasted for 3 to 24 months. All donor sites healed well without local tenderness, leaving only linear or skin graft scars. The flap survived well, without infection, ulceration or necrosis. All ankle function was preserved.Conclusion:Transfer of free ALTPF is a valuable technique for treatment of soft tissue defects in lower extremity in elderly patients. Despite higher risks, satisfactory outcome can be achieved with thorough preoperative evaluation and surgical intervention, especially when the condition of a patient is stable, an early ambulation for functional recovery should be started.
