Objective Jejunal interposition is an important option for restoring gastrointestinal continuity in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable for reconstruction due to previous gastrectomy, tumor involvement, failed gastric conduit, or other constraints. Although the jejunum offers a caliber similar to the esophagus, a rich blood supply, and preserved peristaltic function, anatomical variations in mesenteric length and vascular arcades render long-segment and high-level reconstruction susceptible to excessive tension, mesenteric torsion, venous congestion, and inadequate distal perfusion. This consensus aims to provide standardized recommendations for the application of jejunal interposition in this specific patient population. Methods This consensus was developed in accordance with the WHO Handbook for Guideline Development and Chinese national guideline development standards, with reference to the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ(AGREE Ⅱ), Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT), and Scientific, Transparent and Applicable Rankings (STAR) checklists. The project was registered on the international practice guidelines registry platform (PREPARE-2026CN1384). The working group systematically searched Chinese and English evidence addressing 12 clinical questions. Evidence was graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) 2009 system, with structured appraisal of risk of bias, inconsistency, indirectness, and imprecision. Recommendations were formulated through two rounds of Delphi surveys and a face-to-face consensus meeting, with an agreement threshold of ≥75%. Results The consensus generated 12 recommendations covering indications, selection between jejunum and colon, preoperative assessment, surgical approach and reconstruction route, pedicled jejunal interposition (PJI), supercharged pedicled jejunal interposition (SPJ), indocyanine green (ICG) perfusion assessment, perioperative nutrition, management of anastomotic leakage, long-term follow-up, and special treatment scenarios. Given that the available direct evidence is predominantly derived from single-center retrospective cohorts and case series, recommendations extrapolated from general esophagectomy or other gastrointestinal surgical evidence are deliberately phrased with caution. Conclusion Jejunal interposition is a safe and effective approach for digestive tract reconstruction in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable. This consensus emphasizes that clinical decision-making should be individualized based on the patient's prior treatment history, reconstruction height, vascular anatomy, technical availability, and institutional experience in the Chinese context.

Objective To compare the oncologic safety, surgical efficacy, and aesthetic outcomes between conventional breast-conserving surgery and axillary single-port incision insufflation endoscopic breast-conserving surgery with mini-latissimus dorsi surgery in early breast cancer patients. Methods A retrospective analysis of clinical data from 62 female patients with early breast cancer was performed. Patients were divided into two groups on the basis of surgical method: the conventional group (37 cases) and the endoscopic group (25 cases).The clinical baseline data, surgical results, and postoperative effects of the two groups were compared. Results According to the clinical baseline data, the endoscopic group had a greater maximum tumor diameter and a greater tumor-to-breast volume ratio due to expanded indications for breast-conserving surgery (P<0.001), whereas the other data revealed no statistically significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Compared with those in the conventional group, the total incision length in the endoscopic group was shorter [3.40(3.15, 3.60) cm vs. 7.30 (6.50, 7.60) cm, P<0.001], the postoperative drainage volume was lower (206.20±35.11 ml vs. 223.95±26.17 ml, P=0.026), but the operative time was longer (254.92±22.67 min vs. 146.78±13.01 min, P<0.001). The incision margin positive rate was 0% (0/25) in the endoscopic group, which was significantly lower than the 10.8% (4/37) in the conventional group (P=0.141). The endoscopic group had a lower incidence of complications (4% vs. 27%, P=0.047) and superior JBCS aesthetic scores at the 6-month follow-up (76% vs. 43.2%, P=0.006). Conclusion Axillary single-port incision insufflation endoscopic breast-conserving surgery with mini-latissimus dorsi surgery is not inferior to conventional procedures in terms of oncologic safety (margin-negative rate) and offers advantages in terms of scar concealment, fewer complications, and better aesthetic outcomes, especially suitable for early breast cancer patients with small-to-medium breast volumes, tumors located in the outer quadrants and mastectomy ratios of >20%.

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.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To investigate the current status of clinical nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding geriatric frailty syndrome in a general hospital and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods:Using convenience sampling, 319 clinical nurses from the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, were recruited between May and September 2024. A KAP questionnaire on geriatric frailty syndrome was developed through literature review and the Delphi method. Data were collected with a demographic questionnaire and the KAP questionnaire. Multiple linear regression was performed to identify factors influencing KAP levels.Results:The finalized KAP questionnaire consisted of three dimensions and 27 items. Cronbach's α coefficients for the total scale and the knowledge, attitudes, and practices subscales were 0.974, 0.981, 0.974, and 0.967, respectively. The overall KAP score among 319 nurses was (96.65±20.83). The average scores for each dimension were (4.08±0.82) for attitudes, (3.84±0.84) for practices, and (3.12±1.00) for knowledge. Multiple linear regression indicated that age and positions were respective significantly influenced the total KAP score and attitudes score ( P<0.05) ; frailty-related training was also a significant factor for KAP score and dimension scores ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Clinical nurses demonstrated a moderate overall KAP level regarding geriatric frailty syndrome, with relatively high attitudes but insufficient professional knowledge. Hospital managers should provide effective education and training for frontline nurses to improve KAP levels and to promote early identification, assessment, and intervention of geriatric frailty.

Objective:To explore the activation pathway of CD4+CD28-T cells and their specific role in rheumatoid arthritis(RA).Methods:Peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs)were isolated from RA patients and healthy individuals.Flow cytome-try was used to detect the proportion and activation level of CD4+CD28-T cells,as well as the expressions of perforin and TNF-α,and to analyze the correlation between the proportion of CD4+CD28-T cells and age,C-reactive protein,anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide(CCP)antibodies,rheumatoid factors(RF)and erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR).The expression of Toll-like receptor(TLR)2 on CD4+CD28-T cells was detected by flow cytometry.Purified RA CD4+T cells were stimulated with anti-CD3 antibody and TLR2 agonist alone or in combination,and the activation level and cytokine secretion of CD4+CD28-T cells were detected by flow cytometry.Results:The proportion of CD4+CD28-T cells in RA patients was higher than that in healthy individuals(P<0.05),and was positively correlated with rheumatoid factors and erythrocyte sedimentation rate(r=0.554 1,P<0.01;r=0.363 4,P<0.01).Compared with CD4+CD28+T cells,CD25 expression was downregulate(P<0.01),but CD40L and TLR2 expressions were upregulated(P<0.01;P<0.000 1)in CD4+CD28-T cells from RA patients,and they secreted more perforin and TNF-α(P<0.001;P<0.001).After TLR2 ago-nist stimulation,there was no significant change in CD40L and CD25 expression,as well as perforin and TNF-α secretion in CD4+CD28-T cells from RA patients.Conclusion:The proportion of CD4+CD28-T cells is increased in RA patients,and they secrete a large amount of perforin and TNF-α,which may be involved in the inflammatory state and joint damage of RA,but TLR2 cannot re-place CD28 in activating CD4+CD28-T cells.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the application effect of self-developed anatomical main nail insertion guide in proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) internal fixation for the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures (IFF) in elderly patients. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed on 62 patients with AO31-A2 intertrochanteric fractures who underwent PFNA surgery and met the inclusion criteria from January 2022 to December 2024. They were divided into the conventional PFNA insertion group (conventional operation group) and the anatomical main nail insertion guide-assisted PFNA insertion group(guide group). The conventional operation group (PFNA) included 31 patients, 14 males and 17 females, the age ranged from 64 to 90 with an average of (75.2±11.6) years old;the guide group (PFNA) included 31 patients, 10 males and 21 females, the age ranged fron 67 to 97 with an average of (78.6±13.4) years old. The incision length of the main nail entry, the number of fluoroscopies from satisfactory reduction to before main nail insertion, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, 3-day postoperative VAS score, postoperative hip function Harris score, complications, etc. were observed and compared between the two groups. RESULTS: All patients were followed up for a period ranging from 4 to 12 months, with an average follow-up duration of (6.8±1.6) months. Compared with the guide group, the conventional operation group showed significant differences in the following parameters:the entrance length of the main screw was (6.74±3.77) cm vs. (5.13±1.31) cm, the number of fluoroscopies before the insertion of the main screw was (10.32±3.08) times vs. (7.71±2.41) times, the operation time was (150.45±53.47) minutes vs. (127.48±30.37) minutes, and the intraoperative blood loss was (196.77±121.06) ml vs. (140.97±86.00) ml, with P<0.05 indicating statistical significance.There was no statistically significant difference in 3-day postoperative VAS between the two groups (P>0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in the Harris scores between the conventional operation group and the guided operation group one month post-surgery (60.61±6.60) vs. (65.48±5.19) points (P<0.05). and there was no statistically significant difference in hip Harris scores between the two groups at 3 months after operation (P>0.05). During the 3-month follow-up after operation, neither group had incision infection, screw loosening, cutting, pressure sores, deep vein thrombosis, etc., and there was no statistically significant difference in the complication rate between the two groups. CONCLUSION It is quickly and accurately to implant PFNA assisted by the anatomical major nail implant guide in treatment of osteoporotic intertrochanteric fracture in the elderly.Compared with the traditional operation, it can shorten the operation time and reduce the surgical and X-ray trauma, and beneficial to the rapid rehabilitation of patients.

PURPOSE: To investigate the protective effect of sub-hypothermic mechanical perfusion combined with membrane lung oxygenation on ischemic hypoxic injury of yorkshire brain tissue caused by traumatic blood loss. METHODS: This article performed a random controlled trial. Brain tissue of 7 yorkshire was selected and divided into the sub-low temperature anterograde machine perfusion group (n = 4) and the blank control group (n = 3) using the random number table method. A yorkshire model of brain tissue injury induced by traumatic blood loss was established. Firstly, the perfusion temperature and blood oxygen saturation were monitored in real-time during the perfusion process. The number of red blood cells, hemoglobin content, NA⁺, K⁺, and Ca²⁺ ions concentrations and pH of the perfusate were detected. Following perfusion, we specifically examined the parietal lobe to assess its water content. The prefrontal cortex and hippocampus were then dissected for histological evaluation, allowing us to investigate potential regional differences in tissue injury. The blank control group was sampled directly before perfusion. All statistical analyses and graphs were performed using GraphPad Prism 8.0 Student t-test. All tests were two-sided, and p value of less than 0.05 was considered to indicate statistical significance. RESULTS: The contents of red blood cells and hemoglobin during perfusion were maintained at normal levels but more red blood cells were destroyed 3 h after the perfusion. The blood oxygen saturation of the perfusion group was maintained at 95% - 98%. NA⁺ and K⁺ concentrations were normal most of the time during perfusion but increased significantly at about 4 h. The Ca²⁺ concentration remained within the normal range at each period. Glucose levels were slightly higher than the baseline level. The pH of the perfusion solution was slightly lower at the beginning of perfusion, and then gradually increased to the normal level. The water content of brain tissue in the sub-low and docile perfusion group was 78.95% ± 0.39%, which was significantly higher than that in the control group (75.27% ± 0.55%, t = 10.49, p < 0.001), and the difference was statistically significant. Compared with the blank control group, the structure and morphology of pyramidal neurons in the prefrontal cortex and CA1 region of the hippocampal gyrus were similar, and their integrity was better. The structural integrity of granulosa neurons was destroyed and cell edema increased in the perfusion group compared with the blank control group. Immunofluorescence staining for glail fibrillary acidic protein and Iba1, markers of glial cells, revealed well-preserved cell structures in the perfusion group. While there were indications of abnormal cellular activity, the analysis showed no significant difference in axon thickness or integrity compared to the 1-h blank control group. CONCLUSIONS Mild hypothermic machine perfusion can improve ischemia and hypoxia injury of yorkshire brain tissue caused by traumatic blood loss and delay the necrosis and apoptosis of yorkshire brain tissue by continuous oxygen supply, maintaining ion homeostasis and reducing tissue metabolism level.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical features, treatment and prognosis of extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKTL) with skin lesions as initial symptom. METHODS: The clinical data of 11 ENKTL patients with skin lesions as initial symptom were retrospectively analyzed from August 2016 to January 2023 in Wuhan First Hospital and Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. RESULTS: Among the 11 patients, there were 6 males and 5 females, with a median age of 50(32-80) years. All patients had different forms of skin lesions as initial clinical symptom, including rash, ulcerative mass, painful skin nodules, infiltrating macula, etc. Most of the skin lesions were involved in the limbs and trunk but also appeared in the lower limbs alone. Five patients had hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) at initial diagnosis, and 8 patients had B symptoms. All patients were diagnosed with advanced clinical staging (Lugano staging IV), and classified as high risk (PINK-E score ≥3). Immunohistochemical examination revealed that the positive rates of CD56 and EBER were both 100%, and the median Ki-67 index was 75%(50%-80%). Plasma EBV-DNA tests were all positive (≥5×10² copies/ml). Most of the induction chemotherapy regimens were combination chemotherapy (MESA, p-Gemox, SMILE) containing pegaspargase or L-asparaginase, or combined with PD-1 monoclonal immunotherapy, or HLH regimens (HLH-04 regimen, L-DEP). The median follow-up time and overall survival (OS) time were both 4.5(0.5-27) months. During the follow-up period, all 8 patients who did not receive autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) died, most of whom died of rapid disease progression. Three patients received ASCT, one died of central nervous system recurrence after transplantation, and two survived. The OS of three patients who underwent ASCT was 21, 27, and 19 months, and PFS was 11, 20, and 13 months, respectively. The plasma EBV-DNA copy number was monitored irregularly after transplantation, and the load of EBV was consistent with the changes of the disease. CONCLUSIONS Early clinical symptoms of ENKTL patients with skin lesions as initial symptom are more atypical, and early diagnosis is particularly difficult. The disease progresses rapidly and the prognosis is poor. There is still no uniform standard for the best treatment strategy. The survival of patients can be significantly prolonged by applying ASCT as soon as possible after complete remission obtained by high-dose induction chemotherapy.
