ObjectiveTo establish a mouse model of rheumatoid arthritis with interstitial lung disease （RA-ILD） in DBA/1 mice using Porphyromonas gingivalis （Pg） infection combined with collagen-induced arthritis （CIA）， and to comprehensively evaluate pathological characteristics in joints， lungs， and serum. MethodsForty DBA/1 mice were randomly divided into four groups， i.e.， Control， Pg infection （Pg）， CIA， and Pg infection combined with CIA （Pg+CIA）， with 10 mice in each group. Arthritis clinical symptoms were evaluated by recording arthritis incidence and clinical scores. Micro-CT scanning was used to assess knee joint pathology. Histopathological changes and collagen deposition in knee joints and lung tissues were analyzed using hematoxylin-eosin （HE） and Masson staining. Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect protein expression of α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA）， typeⅠ collagen （ColⅠ）， and fibronectin （FN） in lung tissues. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction（Real-time PCR）was used to measure mRNA expression levels of α-SMA， ColⅠ， FN， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and IL-1β in lung tissues. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect serum levels of Pg， cyclic citrullinated peptide （CCP）， and immunoglobulin G （IgG）. ResultsJoint lesions： The CIA and Pg+CIA groups showed 100% arthritis incidence， with evident joint redness， swelling， and deformity. The number of affected limbs was 27 and 28， and clinical scores were 68 and 70， respectively. No obvious clinical symptoms were observed in the Pg group. Histopathological and imaging analyses showed severe joint lesions in the CIA and Pg+CIA groups， with significantly increased histopathological scores， bone mineral density， bone volume fraction， trabecular thickness， and trabecular number compared to the Control group （P<0.01）. No obvious joint pathology was observed in the Pg group. Lung lesions： The Pg+CIA group exhibited marked alveolar inflammation， interstitial inflammatory cell infiltration， and alveolar wall thickening， with pronounced blue staining of collagen fibers. Histopathological scores and collagen area ratios were significantly higher than those of the Control， Pg， and CIA groups （P<0.05）. Lung protein and mRNA expression levels of α-SMA， ColⅠ， and FN were markedly increased， and mRNA levels of IL-6， TNF-α， and IL-1β were significantly elevated compared to the Control group （P<0.05）. Serology： The Pg+CIA group showed significantly higher levels of CCP， Pg， and IgG compared with the Control， Pg， and CIA groups （P<0.05）. ConclusionDBA/1 mice subjected to Pg infection combined with CIA exhibited pronounced symptoms and pathological features of RA-ILD， along with elevated serum anti-CCP antibody levels. This model represents a novel RA-ILD mouse model， providing a valuable experimental tool for investigating RA-ILD pathogenesis and developing new therapeutics， and serves as a basis for establishing anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody （ACPA）-positive RA-ILD animal models.

ObjectiveTo explore effect of the ankle soft robotic exosuits (ASRE) on gait function in stroke patients. MethodsDatabases including PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP were searched for researches evaluating the impact of ASRE on gait function in stroke patients with hemiplegia, covering the period from January 1st, 2020 to May 1st, 2025. The PEDro scale and the Risk of Bias in Non-randomized Studies of Interventions tool were used to assess the quality of the included researches, and data were extracted for a scoping review. ResultsA total of twelve researches were finally included, consisting of three randomized controlled trials (RCT), three cross-over controlled trials and six pre-post controlled trials, which came from three countries of China, the United States and South Korea, involving 256 patients. The three RCT were rated as high-quality, while the remaining researches were presented moderate to serious risk of bias. Five researches employed a single-session intervention; and seven used multiple-session intervention, with 30 to 60 minutes a session, two to five sessions a week, for five to 20 sessions. ASRE was effective on walking speed, walking distance, propulsive force of the hemiplegic side, gait parameters and spatiotemporal symmetry, joint range of motion, as well as the scores of scales related to lower limb motor function, balance and gait, with favorable safety and reliability. ConclusionASRE may improve the gait function in stroke patients.

The recombinant human thyroid-stimulating hormone (rhTSH) can be used for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) preparation before ¹³¹I therapy, and follow-up. Since its approval by the American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1998, rhTSH has been clinically used in European countries, the United States, and other countries for nearly 30 years. In April 2024, China’s first independently developed rhTSH agent was approved. Based on clinical experience and evidence from domestic and international studies, an expert consensus on the application of rhTSH has been developed following thorough consultations among experts. The consensus offers evidence-based recommendations to guide the appropriate use of rhTSH in clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the use of common disposable and reusable supplies for prevention and con-trol of infections in Shanghai.METHODS A survey was conducted for the use and reuse of disposable high-value consumables,disposable bronchoscopes and environmental cleaning and disinfection tools in Shanghai by using structured questionnaire.RESULTS Totally 81 medical institutions were involved in the survey,44(54.32％)of which were tertiary hospitals,and the median number of beds was 500.The orthopedic implants(70.37％),ul-trasound knife(69.14％)and endoscopic puncture instrument(66.67％)were the high-value consumables rank-ing the top 3 utilization rates.There was reuse of 18 types of high-value consumables in total among the 12 medi-cal institutions.The major causes of reuse of high-value consumables included fee less tan cost of consumables(58.33％)or being unable to included in charge items(33.33％).27.78％of the recycle high-value consumables were not treated with a dedicated disinfection and sterilization system and procedures for the disposable high-value consumables,and 33.33％did not have the report systems for related adverse reactions.49.09％of the medi-cal institutions reported to use the disposable bronchoscopes,4 of which reused them.The majority of the medi-cal institutions could carry out centralized cleaning and disinfection for the recycled floor cloths(60.81％)and cloth towels(56.76％),and 32.43％of the medical institutions reused the cloth towels by manual cleaning.The utilization rate of antiseptic wipes was 75.41％in adult intensive care unit,62.50％in neonatal intensive care unit.CONCLUSION The study reveals that there are some problems in the use of disposal and reusable supplies for prevention and control of infections,which may provide baseline data for management of the related supplies and the surveillance of disinfection of the recycled supplies so as to enhance the quality of management of hospital-asso-ciated infections.

Objective This study aims to explore the application value of spectral CT and perfusion CT parameters in the pathological classification and prognostic assessment of lung cancer.Methods A total of 94 lung cancer patients confirmed by pathology at Shanghai Chest Hospital from January 2023 to November 2024 were included in the study,including 49 cases of lung adenocarcinoma(LUAD),30 cases of lung squamous cell carci-noma(LUSC),and 15 cases of small cell lung cancer(SCLC).All patients underwent spectral CT combined with perfusion scanning using a 256-slice Revolution Apex from GE.Two radiologists independently measured the spectral and perfusion parameters of the three groups of images,including spectral curve slope(K),iodine concentration in the lesion area(ICL),effective atomic number(Zeff),surface permeability(PS),and perfusion index(PI),and established a lung cancer pathological subtype discrimination prediction model based on spectral CT radiomics features.All subjects were randomly divided into a training group and a validation group at a ratio of 3∶1.The discrimination efficacy of the spectral discrimination model between different pathological subtypes and the discrimination efficacy of arterial and venous phase images were compared in multiple dimensions.The performance of the model was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results Statistical analysis showed that the spectral curve slope,ICL,NIC,and Zeff of LUAD patients were significantly higher than those of LUSC and SCLC patients(P<0.05),while there were no significant differences in these parameters between LUSC and SCLC patients(P>0.05).Among the perfusion CT parameters,surface permeability(PS)showed significant differences among the three groups(P<0.05),while blood volume(BV),blood flow(BF),perfusion index(PI),time to peak(TTP),and mean transit time(MTT)did not show statistical differences.The multi-factor logistic regression model based on spectral parameters showed strong discriminatory performance:the area under the curve(AUC)of the LUAD and LUSC discrimination model was 0.806/0.77(training group/test group)in the arterial phase and 0.867/0.9(training group/test group)in the venous phase;the AUC of the LUAD and SCLC discrimination model was 0.885/0.883(training group/test group)in the arterial phase and 0.851/0.776(training group/test group)in the venous phase.Conclusion This study indicates that the multi-dimensional functional metabolic analysis indicators of spectral and perfusion CT imaging have significant value in the differential diagnosis of lung cancer pathological subtypes.The diagnostic model constructed by combining multiple spectral parameters can significantly improve the discrimination efficacy of lung adenocarcinoma,squamous cell carcinoma,and small cell lung cancer,providing precise imaging evidence for the formulation of individualized treatment plans.

Objective To investigate the perioperative use of antimicrobial agents in class Ⅰ incisional ophthalmic surgeries in secondary first-class and above medical institutions in Shanghai City,and provide a basis for the rational use of antimicrobial agents in such surgeries.Methods Perioperative antimicrobial prophylaxis(PAP)in patients undergoing class Ⅰ incisional ophthalmic surgery reported by secondary first-class and above hospitals in Shanghai City from 2017 to 2022 was collected retrospectively.The prophylactic use rate,types,rationality of selection,and timing of use of antimicrobial agents were analyzed comprehensively.Results From 2017 to 2022,a total of 54 868 cases of class Ⅰ incisional ophthalmic surgeries were reported from secondary first-class and above hospitals in Shanghai City.The PAP rates in tertiary comprehensive hospitals,tertiary specialty hospitals,tertiary traditional Chinese medicine hospitals,and secondary comprehensive hospitals were 4.72％,1.79％,3.22％,and 6.63％,re-spectively.The overall PAP rate showed a yearly decreasing trend,from 6.39％in 2017 to 2.31％in 2021.Among different types of hospitals,the PAP rate in secondary comprehensive hospitals decreased most significantly,from 12.72％in 2017 to 0.53％in 2022.The main types of prophylactic antimicrobial use were first-,second-and third-generation cephalosporins,and quinolones.The rational selection rates of antimicrobial agents were highest in ter-tiary comprehensive hospitals(17.13％)and lowest in tertiary specialty hospitals(1.08％).The PAP rates in sys-temic veins 0.5-1 hour before surgery were highest in tertiary specialty hospitals(88.17％)and lowest in tertiary comprehensive hospitals(71.53％).The withdrawal rates of antimicrobial agents within 24 hours after surgery were highest in tertiary traditional Chinese medicine hospitals(80.87％)and lowest in tertiary specialty hospitals(13.26％).Conclusion The PAP for class Ⅰ incisional ophthalmic surgeries in secondary first-class and above medical institutions in Shanghai City still presents certain irrational phenomena in terms of antimicrobial types and administration routes.The administration rate 0.5-1 hour before surgery and withdrawal rate of antimicrobial agents within 24 hours after surgery need to be further improved.Enhanced management is necessary to promote more rational use of antimicrobial agents.

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.

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:This study aims to investigate the impact of socioeconomic status on cognitive function in older adults, while analyzing the mediating role of health-related social determinants.The findings will provide a foundation for the implementation of an active aging strategy.Methods:Utilizing data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study(CHARLS)2020, this study employed multiple linear regression analysis to investigate the relationship between socioeconomic status and cognitive function among older adults.A multiple mediation model was applied to evaluate the mediating effects of health-related social determinants on the association between socioeconomic status and cognitive function, with these mediation effects assessed using the Bootstrap method.Results:The results of the multiple linear regression analysis indicated that socioeconomic status significantly positively influences cognitive function in older adults.Factors such as younger age, male gender, Han ethnicity, and urban residence were associated with higher cognitive scores.The mediation analysis demonstrated that, of the total effect of socioeconomic status on cognitive function, health status accounted for 1.564%, individual lifestyle for 14.820%, social support networks for 2.719%, living conditions for 1.632%, and other social structural factors for 1.496%.In the multiple mediation model, a total of 17.945% of the effect of socioeconomic status on cognitive function in older adults was jointly mediated by health-related social determinants.Conclusions:Socioeconomic status is a critical determinant of cognitive impairment among older adults in China.To address this issue, comprehensive interventions should be implemented to promote the equitable distribution of economic and social resources, reduce socioeconomic disparities, and mitigate health inequalities, thereby enhancing the overall cognitive function of disadvantaged groups.Preventive measures and strategies aimed at improving health status, encouraging healthy lifestyle choices, strengthening social support networks, enhancing living conditions, and optimizing social structural factors could serve as essential intervention points to improve the cognitive function of older adults with lower socioeconomic status.
