Objective To explore the factors leading to early admission for delivery among low-risk and full-term primiparas from both the perspectives of pregnant women and healthcare professionals,and to formulate targeted interventions for reference in ameliorating early admission trend among these primiparas.Methods Using purposeful sampling,we enrolled 11 medical staff members and 13 pregnant women from the Department of Obstetrics,Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University for semi-structured in-depth interviews.Content analysis was utilized to organize and analyze the collected data.Results From the perspective of pregnant women,the reasons were categorized into personal and environmental factors.Personal factors included cognition related to delivery and variability in the perception of labor contraction pain.Environmental factors included the difficulty in verifying the authenticity of labor-related information on the internet,the transmission of anxiety among family members,the convenience of obtaining medical resources,the lack of clear medical advice,and limited access to auxiliary equipment resources.From the perspective of healthcare professionals,the reasons were categorized into three aspects:factors related to pregnant women,i.e.,anxiety about delivery and fear of unknown pain during delivery;factors related to medical staff,i.e.,differences in medical practice and the provision of excessive information with insufficient pertinence in education;and objective factors,i.e.,primiparas were incapable of utilizing objective criteria to discern the start of delivery,and the convenience of accessing medical resources.Conclusion Factors leading to early admission for delivery among low-risk and full-term primiparas are personal factors,environmental factors,factors related to medical staff,and objective factors.To standardize the delivery admission timing,enhance prenatal health education,and develop outpatient support system will help assisting pregnant women in choosing an appropriate time for hospital admission.

Lung cancer poses a serious threat to global public health security.Chemotherapy,as the main strategy for cancer treatment,faces challenges such as high toxicity and drug resistance.Anticancer peptides have the potential of being developed into new anticancer drugs due to their advantages of broad-spectrum anticancer activity,rapid action,and difficulty in generating drug resistance,but they also face shortcomings such as weak activity and strong toxic side effects.The weakly acidic microenvironment of tumors(pH 6.5-6.8)provides a good idea for the design of anticancer peptides of high-efficiency and low-toxicity.Previously,we designed the acid-sensitive antibacterial peptide pHly-1 using the wolf spider(Lycosa singoriensis)toxin Lycosin-Ⅰ as a template.In this study,we found that pHly-1 also had acid-sensitive anticancer activity.Further alanine scanning analysis of pHly-1 was carried out,and we ob-tained a mutant pHTP-2 with better acid sensitivity,whose IC50(half maximal inhibitory concentration)against A549 cells was 15.68 μmol/L at pH 6.6 and was greater than 100 μmol/L at pH 7.4.At pH 6.6,pHTP-2 could act on various lung cancer cell lines and induce the death of A549 cells by rapid ly-sis;at pH 7.4,500 μmol/L pHTP-2 had weak toxicity to red blood cells(the hemolysis rate was ap-proximately 38％)and primary myocardial cells(the inhibition rate was 49.7％,with P＜0.05).Analy-sis of its charge,particle size,morphology,and secondary structure showed that at pH 6.6,the histidine in the sequence of pHTP-2 was protonated,increasing the positive charge(P＜0.01),decreasing the hy-drated particle size(P＜0.05)and forming an α-helical structure to induce membrane lysis of A549 cells.At pH 7.4,it was deprotonated,the positive charge decreases,a β-sheet structure was formed and self-aggregation occurred,limiting its effect on the A549 cell membrane and showing weak activity.In summary,pHTP-2 could respond to the weakly acidic microenvironment of tumors to exert selective cyto-toxic activity,effectively overcoming the shortcomings of anticancer peptides such as low efficiency and high toxicity.Our findings suggest that it is a high-quality lead molecule for anticancer drugs.

OBJECTIVE: To provide a comprehensive summary of the technological evolution, clinical protocols, mechanisms of action, and current research progress of tibial transverse transport (TTT), with the goal of facilitating its standardized application in clinical practice. METHODS: A systematic review of both domestic and international literature on TTT for the treatment of diabetic foot was conducted. The analysis encompassed technical developments, surgical protocols, combination therapies, regenerative mechanisms, and clinical outcomes. RESULTS: Diabetic foot is one of the most severe complications of diabetes mellitus. Conventional treatments show limited efficacy in patients with advanced stages, such as Wagner grade 3/4 or Texas grade C and above. TTT, an evolution of the Ilizarov technique, promotes tissue regeneration through the "tension-stress principle". The procedure for the treatment of diabetic foot has evolved from an open large cortical window (120 mm×20 mm) to a minimally invasive small window (50 mm×15 mm), with incision length reduced to 10 mm and simplified external fixators. A dual-incision technique (10 mm apart) is now applied at 5 cm distal to the tibial tuberosity. Bone transport typically begins 3-5 days postoperatively at a rate of 1 mm/day, incorporating the "accordion technique" (2 weeks distraction+3 days stabilization+reverse transport). Multicenter studies report a limb salvage rate of 96.1%, wound healing rate of 96.3%, and amputation rate of less than 5%. Combining TTT with vascular reconstruction and antibiotic-loaded bone cement further enhances outcomes. There are also a series of studies on the mechanism of TTT in treating diabetic foot. TTT has been shown to activate the hypoxia-inducible factor 1α-vascular endothelial growth factor/stromal cell-derived factor 1 (HIF-1α-VEGF/SDF-1) signaling pathway to facilitate microcirculatory reconstruction; mobilize immune cells and rebalance macrophage polarization, thereby improving the inflammatory microenvironment; recruit stem cells via chemotaxis to accelerate re-epithelialization; and promote the release of regenerative small extracellular vesicles. CONCLUSION TTT demonstrates promising clinical potential in the treatment of diabetic foot, particularly in improving limb perfusion and promoting tissue repair. However, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Further in-depth investigations are required. In addition, the current lack of high-quality randomized controlled trials highlights the urgent need for rigorously designed randomized controlled trial to validate the efficacy and safety of this technique.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective:To improve the understanding of the clinical manifestation of immunoglobulin G 4-related disease (IgG 4-RD) with neurological involvement. Methods:Patients presenting with neurological symptoms and biopsy-confirmed IgG 4-RD were enrolled between March 2014 and March 2024 from the Department of Neurology of Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University. Medical record data of all patients were retrospectively reviewed, including clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, radiological results, pathology, treatments, and outcomes. RD were enrolled between March Results:Nine patients (five males, four females; median age at onset: 63 years) were included in the study. Neurological manifestations consisted of pachymeningitis in six cases, peripheral nerve involvement in two, and brain parenchyma involvement in one. Four patients displayed isolated neurologic symptoms. The most common clinical manifestations were headache and cranial nerve palsy, each involving five cases. Magnetic resonance imaging showed thickening and enhancement of the dura mater in the six patients with pachymeningitis. Four of these cases involved the posterior cranial fossa, 3 presented with an inflammatory pseudotumor, and 2 involved the spinal cord. Four patients with pachymeningitis had normal serum IgG 4 concentrations. Eight patients exhibited elevated serum C-reactive protein or erythrocyte sedimentation rates, with some also showing decreased complement C3 and C4 levels. Cerebrospinal fluid immunoglobulin was elevated in all nine cases. In all cases, histopathologic biopsy results showed extensive infiltration of lymphocytes and plasma cells, with the latter displaying IgG 4+abnormalities. All patients received glucocorticoid therapy, with six also receiving immunosuppressants. All patients were followed up for a median of 30 months, with outcomes including two complete remissions, five partial remissions, one unchanged condition, and one death. Six patients experienced a relapse. Conclusions:Isolated hypertrophic pachymeningitis is the most common manifestation of IgG 4-RD, often occurring in the absence of elevated serum IgG 4 levels. Peripheral nerve and brain parenchyma involvement can also be seen. Clinical manifestations are non-specific, and histopathologic biopsy is frequently required for diagnosis. Although the disease responds well to hormone treatment, recurrence is common. Early combined immunosuppressive therapy can improve prognosis.
