ObjectiveTo compare the clinical efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） manipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation versus surgical treatment for type A distal radius fracture （DRF） and to explore the factors influencing the choice of treatment. MethodsA multi-center retrospective study was conducted， collecting data from 1237 type A DRF patients treated in 11 hospitals in Jiangsu province from September， 2023 to April， 2025. Among them， 851 patients in the TCM group received manipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation， and 386 patients in the surgical group underwent open reduction and internal fixation. Visual analog scale （VAS） scores for pain and radiographic indicators including palmar tilt， ulnar deviation， and radial height were compared before treatment， 5-7 days after treatment， and 4-6 weeks after treatment. The wrist joint function scores including Dienst and Gartland-Werley scores at 12 weeks after treatment were recorded. Subgroup analysis was conducted for the excellent rate of Dienst and Gartland-Werley scores， stratified by age （＜50， 50-59， 60-69， ≥70 years old） and AO subtypes （A1， A2， A3）. A multivariate logistic regression model was used to identify independent factors influencing treatment choice. ResultsOn 5-7 days after treatment， the surgical group had lower VAS scores than the TCM group， while 4-6 weeks after treatment， the TCM group showed lower VAS scores than the surgical group （P＜0.01）. In terms of radiographic indicators， except for the palmar tilt before treatment being higher in the surgical group than in the TCM group （P＜0.01）， there were no significant differences in palmar tilt， ulnar deviation， and radial height at other timepoints （P＞0.05）. Twelve weeks after treatment， the surgical group had a higher average Gartland-Werley score and the excellent rate than the TCM group （P＜0.01）. Subgroup analysis showed that in patients with A2 type DRF aged 50-59 and 60-69 years old， the excellent rates of Dienst and Gartland-Werley scores in the TCM group were higher than those in the surgical group （P＜0.05）. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age， palmar tilt， ulnar deviation， and the degree of swelling on the affected side were independent factors influencing the choice of treatment （P＜0.05）. ConclusionBoth TCM manipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation and surgical treatment for type A DRF can achieve good therapeutic effects. TCM manipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation has certain advantages in medium- and long-term pain relief， especially in elderly patients， where wrist joint function recovery is more stable. Age， palmar tilt， ulnar deviation， and swelling degree are the main factors influencing the treatment choice.

BACKGROUND:Traditional methods of urinary tract reconstruction are limited by donor scarcity,high complication rates,and suboptimal functional recovery.Tissue engineering strategies offer new directions in this field.Since the urinary tract is mainly composed of muscle tissue,the key is to find suitable seed cells and efficiently induce them to differentiate into smooth muscle cells.Comparative studies on the efficacy of different smooth muscle cell induction regimens are still lacking. OBJECTIVE:To isolate,culture,and identify human urine-derived stem cells,and to compare the effects of two different induction protocols. METHODS:Human urine-derived stem cells were isolated from urine samples of 11 healthy adult volunteers by multiple centrifugations.Surface markers were identified by flow cytometry.The multi-directional differentiation potential of human urine-derived stem cells was verified through osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation.Differentiation was induced by transforming growth factor-β1 or transforming growth factor-β1 combined with platelet derived growth factor for 14 days.Immunofluorescence staining and western blot assay were employed to compare the expression differences of smooth muscle-specific proteins(α-SMA and SM22). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Urine-derived stem cells were successfully isolated from the eight urine samples of healthy people.These cells exhibit a"rice grain"-like morphology and possess a robust proliferative capacity.(2)Urine-derived stem cells exhibited high expression of mesenchymal stem cell surface markers(CD73,CD90,and CD44)and extremely low expression of hematopoietic stem cell surface markers(CD34 and CD45).These cells did not express CD19,CD105,and HLA-DR.(3)After osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation,the formation of calcium nodules and lipid droplets was observed,with positive staining results from Alizarin Red S and Oil Red O staining.(4)After 14 days of smooth muscle induction culture,immunofluorescence staining revealed that the smooth muscle differentiation rate of urine-derived stem cells treated with a combination of transforming growth factor-β1 and platelet derived growth factor was significantly higher compared to those treated with transforming growth factor-β1 alone(P<0.005).(5)After 14 days of smooth muscle induction culture,western blot assay further demonstrated that the expression levels of α-SMA and SM22 in the transforming growth factor-β1/platelet derived growth factor group were significantly elevated compared to those in the transforming growth factor-β1 only group(P<0.005).These findings confirm that urine-derived stem cells can be non-invasively isolated using multiple rounds of centrifugation.Compared with transforming growth factor-β1 alone,the combination of transforming growth factor-β1 and platelet derived growth factor can improve the efficiency of inducing urine-derived stem cells to differentiate into smooth muscle cells.

Acute lateral ankle sprain (ALAS) is one of the most common sport injuries, with high incidence, recurrence and disability rates. Currently, exercise rehabilitation-based non-surgical treatment is the primary management approach for ALAS. However, there remain improper practices such as excessive immobilization or uncontrolled activity, which contribute to recurrent sprains and chronic ankle instability, significantly impairing patients′ athletic function and quality of life. To standardize the non-surgical management of ALAS, improve the cure rates, and reduce the recurrence and disability rates, Chinese Sports Rehabilitation Medicine Training Project of Chinese Medical Association, Foot and Ankle Basics and Orthopedics Group, Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Sports Medicine Branch of Jiangsu Medical Association organized relevant experts to formulate Expert consensus on non-surgical treatment for acute lateral ankle sprain ( version 2025), following the principles of scientific vigor, practicality, and innovation. Thirteen recommendations were proposed for standardized treatment protocols across different healing phases, aiming to provide references for standard management of ALAS and improve the therapeutic outcomes.

For middle-aged and elderly patients with conditions such as spinal fractures and degenerative spinal diseases, spinal internal fixation is a core surgical procedure for reconstructing spinal stability, heavily relying on the biomechanical stability provided by pedicle screw systems. Whereas, these patients are often complicated by osteoporosis that can significantly compromise the stability of the bone-pedicle screw interface, leading to a marked increase in pedicle screw loosening and surgical failure rates. The bone cement-augmented pedicle screw technique, which involves injecting bone cement into the vertebral body or screw trajectory to optimize the mechanical properties of the bone-pedicle screw composite, has been proven to significantly enhance fixation strength and effectively prevent screw-related failures, thereby reducing the incidence of internal fixation failure in high-risk populations undergoing spinal fusion. However, the widespread clinical application of this technique has faced challenges such as inaccurate clinical decision-making (indication and contraindication selection), non-standardized operative practices, and insufficient awareness of complication prevention, resulting in considerable variability in clinical outcomes and even severe complications. To address this, Prof. Luo Fei from First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University initiated the project and the Chinese Association Orthopaedic Surgeons organized relevant experts to develop the Evidence-based clinical practice guideline for bone cement-augmented pedicle screw technique ( version 2025), based on current evidence. The guidelines put forward 8 recommendations regarding the clinical value, scope of application, and operational standards of the technique, aiming to provide evidence-based medical support and technical standardization for clinical decision-making.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Yangrong Changchun Ointment on serum estradiol (E 2), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), and on the Kiss peptin/protein one anti-G protein-coupled receptor 54 (GPR54) signaling pathway in rats with menopause syndrome (MPS). Methods:Totally 48 SD female rats were randomly divided into a sham-operation group ( n=8) and a modeling group ( n=40), and the rat model of menopausal syndrome was established by ovariectomy. After successful modeling, the rats were divided into the model group, Kunbao Pills group group, Yangrong Changchun Ointment high-, medium-, low-dosage groups according to random number table method, with eight rats in each group. Yangrong Changchun Ointment high-, medium-, low-dosage groups were orally administered with Yangrong Changchun Ointment suspension at doses of 10.0, 5.0, and 2.5 g/kg, while the Kunbao Pills group was orally administered with Kunbao Pills suspension at a dosage of 1 g/kg. The sham-operation group and model group were orally administered with distilled water of equal volume at a dosage of 1 ml/100 g body weight, once a day, for 28 consecutive days. The organ index of rats was calculated; the behavior of rats was determined by open filed test; HE staining was used to observe the histopathology of the uterus; ELISA was used to detect the levels of E 2, FSH, and AMH in the serum of rats; and qRT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expressions of GPR54, Kiss-1, Phospholipase C (PLC), gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), and protein kinase C (PKC) in the hypothalamus. Results:Compared with the model group, the uterus, adrenal gland, spleen and thymus indices increased in the Yangrong Changchun Ointment high-dosage group ( P<0.05); serum levels of E 2 and AMH increased ( P<0.05), and the serum level of FSH decreased ( P<0.05); the mRNA and protein expressions of GPR54, Kiss-1, PLC, GnRH and PKC in the hypothalamus decreased ( P<0.05), and the uterine histopathological damage was improved. Conclusion:Yangrong Changchun Ointment can improve the pathological injury and estrogen level disorder in rats with MPS, and its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the activation of kisspeptin/GPR54 pathway.

Objective To compare the hemodynamic effects of anesthesia induction with remimazolam tosylate and etomidate in elderly frail patients.Methods This study was a single-center,prospective,randomized,single-blind trial.From January to April 2024,96 elderly frail patients undergoing elective surgery in Fuyang People's Hospital were recruited.After excluding 6 cases(3 refused to participate,1 had tracheal intubation time＞30 s,and 2 had missing data),90 patients were finally included.They were randomly divided into remimazolam tosylate group(intravenous injection of 0.2 mg/kg remimazolam tosylate for anesthesia induction,n=45)and etomidate group(intravenous injection of 0.3 mg/kg etomidate for anesthesia induction,n=45)by the random number table method.The area under the curve for mean arterial pressure(MAP)below or above baseline values(AUCMAP-and AUCMAP+),the heart rate(HR)below or above baseline values by 10％(AUCHR-and AUCHR+)within 10 minutes of anesthesia induction,the time to loss of consciousness,the time from the start of anesthesia induction to a bispectral index(BIS)＜60,the incidence of drug-related adverse reactions,the incidence of cardiovascular adverse events,and the usage of vasoactive drug administrations were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the etomidate group,the AUCMAP-(145.10±35.75 vs.178.52±39.78)and AUCHR-[43.20(26.58,56.35)vs.54.99(43.01,65.85)]in remimazolam tosylate group were significantly reduced(P＜0.001,P=0.001).The time to loss of consciousness and the time from the start of anesthesia induction to BIS＜60 were prolonged(P＜0.001).The incidence of drug-related adverse reactions was significantly decreased(P＜0.05),and the number of norepinephrine administrations was significantly reduced(P＜0.05)in remimazolam tosylate group.However,there were no statistically significant differences in AUCMAP+,AUCHR+,the incidence of cardiovascular adverse events,and the usages of atropine,urapidil,and esmolol between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion The use of remimazolam tosylate during anesthesia induction in elderly frail patients can provide more stable hemodynamic parameters and results in fewer adverse reactions than etomidate.

Objective To explore the relationship between community health follow-up management and the mental health of the long-term care insurance residents,and to provide a basis for the construction of an integrated community home care service mode for disabled elders.Methods The residents were selected through cluster sampling who participated in LTCI home care from Jan 1 to Dec 31,2021.After a year of participation,the subjects'mental health was assessed face-to-face by trained community doctors using the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale and the Self-Rating Depression Scale.By referring to residents'electronic health records combined with on-site questionnaire survey,community doctors collected the demographic information and health follow-up management provided by primary medical and health institutions.The multivariate logistic regression were conducted to evaluate the association between follow-up care and mental health outcomes.Results The study consisted of 399 LTCI-enrolled individuals,57.64%(n=230)received follow-up care by family physicians.The prevalence of anxiety and depression among participants was 19.80%(n=79)and 67.67%(n=270),respectively.Univariate analysis found that community health follow-up management could underscore the potential impact of follow-up care in mitigating anxiety(χ2=38.926,P<0.001)and depression(χ2=14.598,P<0.001)among LTCI enrollees.Multivariate analysis revealed that follow-up care was an independent protective factor against anxiety(adjusted OR=0.351,95%CI:0.176-0.701,P=0.003).However,follow-up care did not significantly impact depression prevalence.Additionally,LTCI grade and education level were also identified factors influencing the mental health of participants(P<0.05).Conclusion Community health service centers provide health follow-up management that plays a positive role in alleviating the anxiety symptoms of disabled residents under long-term care insurance home care.It is an effective way to improve the quality of LTCI home care services.
