Objective To investigate the drug resistance phenotype/genotype and virulence gene carrying status, serotype, and sequence typing (ST) of Campylobacter jejuni in Fengtai District in 2024. Methods The drug resistance phenotype was detected by agar dilution method, and serotyping was performed by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The whole genome sequencing was used to analyze drug resistance genes, virulence genes, and other characteristics. Results Among the 35 Campylobacter jejuni strains analyzed, the antibiotics with the highest resistance rates were nalidixic acid and ciprofloxacin (both 82.86%), followed by tetracycline (74.89%). All strains exhibited a 100.00% sensitivity rate to erythromycin. The multiple drug resistance rate was 77.14%. The predominant drug resistance genes were gyrA-T86I (94.29%) and tetO (74.29%). The most common serotype was HS:2, accounting for 25 strains. A total of 132 virulence genes were detected. There were 12 clonal complexes (CC) and 24 ST types. Conclusion The drug resistance situation of Campylobacter jejuni in Fengtai District is relatively severe, and the drug resistance phenotype is related to specific genetic mutations to some extent. The serotypes are diverse, the virulence genes are complex, and the pathogenic potential is significant, posing a notable risk for inducing Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). The high number of ST types indicates substantial genetic diversity.

Good endometrial receptivity is an essential factor for embryo implantation,and gene expression in endometrial tissue during the window of implantation(WOI)is closely related to receptivity.Transcriptome sequencing technology enables the identification of gene expression profiles of endometrium during different menstrual phases,as well as microRNAs and long-chain non-coding RNA sequences involved in regulating gene expression.Combining this technology with bioinformatics analysis provides a better understanding of specific gene expression during the receptive period and offers technical support for studying its regulatory mechanism.Moreover,gene expression profiles of the endometrium during different menstrual phases hold significant clinical application value for accurately assessing endometrium receptivity in infertility patients and those with repeated implantation failure,thereby guiding individualized embryo transfer strategies.This review summarizes the progress of transcriptome sequencing in evaluating human endometrial receptivity and discusses future research directions.This review aims to understand the complex molecular mechanisms of endometrial receptivity formation and regulation from the transcriptional level,in order to improve the implantation rate of embryos in assisted reproductive technology and reduce the abortion rate.

Introducing fingerprint level 3 features(especially sweat pores)in fingerprint recognition can significantly improve the value of fingerprints.However,conventional fingerprint visualization methods suffer from issues such as poor stability and reproducibility,insufficient resolution,and feature masking in detecting level 3 features.Electrospun membrane has unique advantages in latent fingerprint(LFP)detection due to its excellent adsorption performance and high specific surface area,and thus its application potential in LFP visualization urgently need to be explored.A novel pore visualization method based on core-shell structured PAN-Flu/PVP composite nanofibrous membrane was proposed in this work.Specifically,the PAN-Flu/PVP composite nanofibrous membrane was prepared via coaxial electrospinning technology,with polyacrylonitrile(PAN)loaded with fluorescein(Flu)as the core and polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP)as the shell.The experimental results showed that the prepared PAN Flu/PVP composite nanofibrous membrane had a porous structure and excellent adsorption performance.Based on the water solubility of the outer shell PVP and the water induced fluorescence enhancement effect of the core Flu,high-resolution visualization of sweat pores could be achieved within 2 s.The optimization experiment showed that the best quality of sweat latent fingerprints was obtained when the Flu content was 4 mg/mL,the spinning time was 1 h,and the sweating time was 2 min.Through repeated fingerprinting and live fingerprint comparison experiment,the strong stability and high reproducibility of the as-produced membrane in displaying fingerprint sweat pores were finally verified.In summary,the development method could quickly,stably and accurately extract the spatial distribution and activity level of fingerprint sweat pores,which was of great significance for improving the utilization and value of fingerprints.

Cervical spinal cord injury without fracture-dislocation (CSCIWFD) is referred to as a special type of cervical spinal cord injury characterized by traumatic spinal cord dysfunction and no significant bony structural abnormalities on imagines. Duo to the high risk of missed diagnosis during the initial consultation, CSCIWFD may lead to progressive neurological deterioration or even complete paralysis, severely impacting patients′ prognosis. Currently, there are no established consensuses over the diagnosis and treatment of CSCIWFD, such as the lack of evidence-based standards for indications of non-surgical treatment and risk of secondary neurological injury, as well as debates over the optimal timing for surgical intervention and indications for different surgical approaches. To address these issues, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the relevant fields to formulate Diagnosis and treatment guideline for acute cervical spinal cord injury without fracture- dislocation in adults ( version 2025) . Based on evidence-based medicine and the principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability, the guidelines proposed 11 recommendations covering terminology, diagnosis, evaluation treatment, and rehabilitation, etc., aiming to standardize the management of CSCIWFD.

Vertebral refracture following percutaneous vertebral augmentation (PVA) is commonly seen in elderly patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures (OTLCF). It can lead to recurrent pain, loss of vertebral height, progression of kyphosis, and even neurological dysfunction, significantly impairing patients′ quality of life. Current diagnosis and treatment face multiple challenges, including high misdiagnosis rate, difficulty in choosing between surgical and non-surgical treatment options, lack of standardized surgical protocols, interference from intralesional bone cement during procedures, inadequate stability of internal fixation in osteoporotic bone, and suboptimal compliance of anti-osteoporotic therapy. Establishing a standardized diagnostic and therapeutic framework is urgently needed. To standardize the management process and improve outcomes for vertebral refractures after PVA in elderly OTLCF patients, Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the field to develop Guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of vertebral refracture after percutaneous vertebral augmentation in elderly patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025), based on current literature and clinical experience, and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability. A total of 11 recommendations were proposed, encompassing diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of vertebral refracture after PVA in elderly patients with OTLCF, aiming to provide a foundation for a standardized management.

Thoracolumbar spine fracture often leads to severe pain, functional impairments, and neurological deficits, for which open reduction and internal fixation can effectively restore the spinal structural stability. Open decompression and reduction with internal fixation can help relieve spinal cord compression and improve spinal function in cases of concomitant cord injury. Although spinal stability can be restored through surgery, patients often face chronic pain and functional impairments postoperatively. A postoperative rehabilitation program is critical in optimizing therapeutic outcomes, reducing complications, and minimizing the risk of secondary injuries. However, current rehabilitation methods, such as physical therapy, functional training, and pain management, are confronted with problems in clinical practice, including significant variation in efficacy, poor patient adherence, and prolonged rehabilitation period. There is an urgent need for a unified rehabilitation strategy to address these problems. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Physicians Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and the Spine Health Professional Committee of the Chinese Human Health Technology Promotion Association organized experts from relevant fields to formulate Evidence-based guidelines for rehabilitation treatment after internal fixation of thoracolumbar spine fracture in adults ( version 2025) by integrating evidences from clinical researches and advanced rehabilitation concepts at home and abroad. A total number of 14 recommendations concerning the rehabilitation treatment with multimodal analgesia, psychological intervention, deep vein thrombosis prevention, core muscle and extremity exercise, appropriate use of braces, early weight-bearing, device-aided rehabilitation exercise, neuroregulatory therapy, rehabilitation team were put forward, aiming to standardize the post-operative rehabilitation process following internal fixation, promote the functional recovery, and enhance patients′ quality of life.

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.

Acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fracture (ASOTLF) can lead to chronic low back pain, kyphosis deformity, pulmonary dysfunction, loss of mobility, and even life-threatening complications. Vertebral augmentation is currently the mainstream treatment method for this condition. In 2019, the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma and the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association collaboratively led the development of Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation for acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures. Six years later, with advances in clinical diagnosis and treatment techniques as well as accumulating evidence in related fields, the 2019 guideline requires updating. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, the Spinal Health Professional Committee of China Human Health Science and Technology Promotion Association, and the Minimally Invasive Orthopedics Professional Committee of Shaanxi Medical Doctor Association have organized experts in the field to develop the Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation of acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025) , based on the latest evidence-based medical researches. This guideline incorporates 3 recommendations retained from the 2019 version with updated strength of evidence, along with 12 new recommendations. It provides recommendations from six aspects of diagnosis, pain management, treatment option selection, prevention of postoperative complications, anti-osteoporosis therapy, and postoperative rehabilitation, aiming to provide a reference for standard treatment of vertebral augmentation for ASOTLF in hospitals at all levels.

Objective:To explore the differences in clinical efficacy between Co-Cr-Mo guided multidirectional sliding growing rod technology (CMSG) and traditional growing rod in the treatment of neurofibromatosis type 1 dysplastic early-onset scoliosis.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 20 patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 dysplastic early-onset scoliosis who underwent surgical treatment in the Scoliosis Department of Zhengzhou Orthopaedic Hospital Affiliated to Henan University from January 2010 to July 2022. There were 10 patients in the traditional rod group (treated with traditional growing rod surgery) and 10 patients in the CMSG group (treated with CMSG technology). All patients were ≤10 years old and had a Cobb angle ≥45°. The number of surgeries and the occurrence of complications were recorded. The Cobb angle of the main scoliotic curve, the Cobb angle of kyphosis from T 5 to T 12, and the height from T 1 to S 1 were measured from the imaging data to evaluate the correction of deformity and spinal growth. Results:There were no significant differences in age, gender, follow - up time, preoperative Cobb angle, and preoperative Cobb angle of kyphosis from T 5-T 12 between the CMSG group and the TGR group ( P>0.05). The number of surgeries 1.3±0.67 and the total medical cost 91, 100±34, 700 yuan in the CMSG group were lower than those in the TGR group (5.3±1.77 times and 155, 800±45, 900 yuan], and the differences were statistically significant ( t=6.687, P<0.001; t=3.558, P=0.002). The Cobb angles of the main curve before surgery, after the first surgery, and at the last follow - up in the CMSG group were 69.7°±17.8°, 19.8°±9.7°, and 24.4°±9.0° respectively, while those in the TGR group were 62.0°±11.1°, 32.1°±11.4°, and 33.3°±11.6° respectively. The differences in Cobb angles after the first surgery and at the last follow-up between the two groups were statistically significant ( t=2.633, P=0.017; t=2.313, P=0.033). The Cobb angles of kyphosis from T 5 to T 12 before surgery, after the first surgery, and at the last follow - up in the CMSG group were 40.0°±24.2°, 21.0°±6.0°, and 33.6°±9.3° respectively, while those in the TGR group were 31.3°±14.5°, 26.3°±10.5°, and 32.3°±17.2° respectively. There were no significant differences in the Cobb angles of kyphosis from T 5 to T 12 after the first surgery and at the last follow-up between the two groups ( t=1.383, P=0.184; t=0.243, P=0.811). The heights from T 1 to S 1 before surgery, after the first surgery, and at the last follow-up in the CMSG group were 30.5±3.4 cm, 33.7±3.3 cm, and 37.9±4.8 cm respectively, with an annual increase of 1.18±0.39 cm. The heights from T 1 to S 1 in the TGR group were 29.1±3.0 cm, 31.4±2.9 cm, and 36.3±3.5 cm respectively, with an annual increase of 1.25±0.23 cm. There was no significant difference in the annual growth height of T 1-S 1 between the two groups ( t=1.367, P=0.189). During the follow-up period, 3 patients in the CMSG group had 3 complications: 1 case of coronal plane trunk decompensation, 1 case of rod fracture, and 1 case of distal junctional kyphosis. In the TGR group, 7 patients had 8 complications: 2 cases of wound rupture, 3 cases of screw loosening, 1 case of distal addition phenomenon, 1 case of proximal addition phenomenon, and 1 case of rod fracture. Conclusion:The Co-Cr-Mo guided multidirectional sliding growing rod technique is safe and effective in treating type 1 neurofibromatosis with malnutrition type early-onset scoliosis. It can effectively control the progression of spinal deformities,preserve the growth ability of the spine, and have a low overall incidence of complications.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and genetic etiology of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) with myogenic tumors.Methods:The clinical data of 2 children with DMD combined with myogenic tumors diagnosed in Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University in July 2021 and February 2022 were collected. The relevant literature was reviewed to summarize the clinical characteristics and explore the mechanism of the dystrophin ( DMD) gene in myogenic tumors. Results:A 6-year and 10-month-old boy with DMD (deletion of exon 45) and a 12-year-old boy with DMD (deletion of exon 51) were diagnosed with tumors. They were diagnosed with DMD for delayed motor development in the Department of Neurology of Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University. They presented with painless masses in the waist. Postoperative pathological diagnosis: the pathology and immunohistochemistry of case 1 showed an alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) and both myogenin and myogenic differentiation 1 positive; the pathology and immunohistochemistry of case 2 showed an alveolar soft part sarcoma(ASPS) and transcription factor enhancer 3 positive; both cases were myogenic tumors. Literature review (including this paper) showed that there were in total 14 cases with DMD combined with myogenic tumors including 13 cases of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) and 1 case of ASPS. All of them are male, and the age of onset of the tumors was 4-17 years. Pathological subtypes were described in 6 cases of ARMS and 5 cases of embryonal RMS, and were not described in 2 cases. The 9 cases described all had large deletions in the DMD gene which can change the reading frame of the DMD gene, and all gene mutations did not exceed exon 62. Conclusions:DMD gene with deletion may increase the risk of having myogenic tumors, and RMS is more common, which is manifested as painless mass in early stage. All DMD gene deletions do not exceed exon 62 and lead to change of the gene reading frame with severe clinical phenotype and degenerative changes in muscle function.
