OBJECTIVE To explore and establish a full-cycle management model for drug traceability codes that aligns with national policy requirements and the practical needs of healthcare institutions， thereby enhancing the refinement of drug management and the level of medication safety. METHODS A tripartite strategy integrating “hardware deployment， system transformation， and process re-engineering” was adopted. This involved the introduction of intelligent identification devices （personal digital assistant， high-definition industrial reader）， the modification of the hospital information system interface， and the re-engineering of workflows （drug warehousing， dispensing and distribution， drug withdrawal， uploading to the insurance platform） to achieve comprehensive， informatized collection and association of drug traceability codes throughout all stages. RESULTS A full-cycle management model for drug traceability codes was successfully established， realizing the goals of making drugs “traceable to their source， trackable in their distribution， and accountable in their responsibility”. The patient waiting time for medication dispensing before and after the implementation was [3.08（1.67，5.58）] min and [3.28（1.77，5.98）] min， respectively. Among them， the patient waiting time under the pre-preparation mode was [3.60（2.13，6.35）] min and [3.50（2.03，6.30）] min， respectively； the patient waiting time under the real-time mode was [2.05（0.83，4.03）] min and [2.78（1.18，5.38）] min， respectively； the number of dispensing errors was 3， 0， respectively； the staffing of relevant positions had not been increased. CONCLUSIONS The drug traceability code management model constructed from a full-cycle perspective effectively meets national policy requirements. It provides data support for refined hospital management and offers solid technical and procedural safeguards for ensuring patient medication safety and strengthening medical insurance fund supervision， demonstrating practical value.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of patients with postcraniotomy meningitis(PM)caused by Gram-negative bacteria(GNB),and to evaluate the related risk factors for mortal-ity.Methods A total of 202 PM patients in Beijing Tiantan Hospital,Capital Medical University from May 2019 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed,including 54 cases in the death group and 148 cases in the survival group.The distribution of microorganisms in the two groups was analyzed,and Cox proportional hazards regression model was established to evaluate the risk factors of death.Results Among the 202 pa-tients with PM caused by GNB,with a mortality rate of 26.7%,Klebsiella pneumoniae(24.8%),Acinetobact-er baumannii(21.8%)and Escherichia coli(8.4%)were the top three isolated pathogens.The proportions of GNB distribution in the survival group and the death group were similar,but the bacteria distribution in the death group was more concentrate.Cox proportional hazards regression model results showed that hyperten-sion(HR=2.384,95%CI 1.229-4.626,P=0.010)and admission to ICU(HR=3.695,95%CI 1.412-9.670,P=0.008)were independent risk factors for death in patients with PM caused by GNB.Conclusion The mortality of PM caused by GNB is high.Hypertension and admission to ICU are independent risk factors for death of patients,and attention should be paid to prevention and treatment in clinical practice.

[Purpose]To analyze the incidence and changing trends of elderly breast cancer(de-fined as diagnosis at age ≥ 60 years old)in China and globally from 1990 to 2021,and to predict its trends from 2022 to 2035.[Methods]Data on the number of new cases and crude incidence rate of elderly breast cancer in China and globally were extracted from the 2021 Global Burden of Disease Study(GBD)database.The age-standardized incidence rate(ASIR)was calculated by sex and age group.The Joinpoint regression model was used to calculate the annual percentage change(APC)and average annual percentage change(AAPC),to describe the incidence trend of elderly breast cancer from 1990 to 2021.The Bayesian age-period-cohort(BAPC)model was applied to predict the incidence of elderly breast cancer from 2022 to 2035.[Results]From 1990 to 2021,the number of new breast cancer cases among elderly individuals globally increased from 416 444 to 1 023 776,while in China,the number rose from 26 371 to 158 085.The ASIR increased from 89.04/105 to 94.73/105 globally and from 27.24/105 to 58.40/105 in China.By sex,the ASIR of el-derly females increased from 155.19/105 to 170.54/105 globally and from 49.13/105 to 106.00/105 in China;the ASIR of elderly males increased from 2.78/105 to 4.72/105 globally and from 1.69/105 to 6.81/105 in China.By age group,from 1990 to 2021,the incidence rates of breast cancer in elderly female and male both peaked in the age group of 85～89 years old globally.In China,the most significant increases in incidence rates were observed in the age group of 60～64 years old for elderly females and the age group of 70～74 years old for elderly males;these two age groups had the highest incidence rates in their respective sexes in 2021.Joinpoint analysis showed that the ASIR of elderly breast cancer in China presented a continuous upward trend from 1990 to 2021(AAPC=2.51％),with the fastest growth during 2016-2019(APC=5.14％).The global ASIR showed only a slight fluctuating upward trend(AAPC=0.20％),with significant increases only during 1990-1995 and 2003-2010.Predictions from the BAPC model indicated that by 2035,the global ASIR of elderly breast cancer would reach 107.84/105(192.26/105 for females and 6.02/105 for males),while the ASIR in China would reach 104.35/105(188.08/105 for females and 13.32/105 for males).[Conclusion]From 1990 to 2021,the incidence of elderly breast cancer showed an upward trend both in China and globally,with a particularly pronounced increase in elderly male.The disease burden of elderly breast cancer in China is expected to continue increasing in the future,necessi-tating strengthened primary and secondary prevention measures,as well as optimized screening programs for the elderly population to reduce disease risks and improve prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of virtual simulation-guided unilateral locking plate combined with Jail screw technique for double column tibial plateau fractures involving the posterolateral plateau.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 32 patients with double column tibial plateau fractures involving the posterolateral plateau admitted to Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital Group Suqian Hospital from March 2018 to March 2022, including 20 males and 12 females, aged 37-69 years [(47.5±6.9)years]. According to AO/OTA classification, the fractures were classified as type 41B in 17 patients and type 41C in 15. According to the three-column classification, the fractures were classified as lateral column+posterior column in 17 patients and medial column+posterior column in 15. Virtual simulation technique was used to simulate surgical operation before surgery. After reduction, the patients′ tibial plateau mirror models of the healthy side were used to simulate the implantation of internal fixators on the affected side. The position data of the placed internal fixators were obtained to guide the personalized treatment with unilateral locking plate combined with Jail screw technique. The total number of Jail screws, average number of Jail screws, distribution and accuracy of screw placement, operative duration, intraoperative blood loss, and fracture healing status were recorded. The posterior tibial plateau angle (PTSA), proximal medial tibial angle (MPTA) and Rasmussen anatomical score were compared before operation, at 1, 3, 6, 12 months after operation and at the last follow-up. The Lysholm scores at 6, 12 months after operation and at the last follow-up were used to evaluate the knee function. At the last follow-up, the knee range of motion was measured. Postoperative complications were observed.Results:All the patients were followed up for 28-36 months [(30.7±2.3)months]. The total number of Jail screws inserted was 48, with an average of (1.5±0.5) screws. In the sagittal direction, 1-2 Jail screws were inserted in each patient, with an accuracy rate of 88% (42/48). The operative duration was 78-116 minutes [(98.7±10.5)minutes]. The intraoperative blood loss was 70-120 ml [(96.6±15.6)ml]. All the fractures had healing of stage I, with a healing time of 4-7 months [(5.4±0.9)months]. At 1, 3, 6, 12 months after operation and at last follow-up, the PTSA, MPTA, and Rasmussen anatomical scores were significantly improved when compared with those before operation ( P<0.05), while there was no statistically significant difference between those at various postoperative time points ( P>0.05). The Lysholm knee scores were (83.6±3.9)points, (88.5±3.6)points, and (93.7±2.6)points at 6, 12 months after operation, and at the last follow-up, respectively, which were gradually increased with the passage of the follow-up time ( P<0.05). The range of motion was (121.4±4.6)° in flexion and was 0.0(0.0, 3.0)° in extension at the last follow-up. Two patients had superficial wound infection and 1 had wound dehiscence after operation, which recovered with dressing change or debridement and suturing. No deep infection, vascular injury or nerve damage occurred. Conclusions:The virtual simulation-guided unilateral locking plate combined with Jail screw technique has the advantages of high accuracy of screw placement, shorter operative duration, less intraoperative blood loss, satisfactory fracture reduction, favorable recovery of knee function and range of motion, and fewer postoperative complications in the treatment of double column tibial plateau fractures involving the posterolateral plateau.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of posterior vertebral column resection (PVCR) combined with double row nanomimetic bone column implantation and internal fixation in the treatment of stage Ⅲ Kümmell's disease plus kyphosis.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of the 12 patients with stage Ⅲ Kümmell's disease plus kyphosis who had been admitted to Department of Spine Surgery, Zhengzhou Orthopedic Hospital from March 2017 to September 2023. There were 2 males and 10 females, with an age of (63.4±6.4) years and a disease duration of (8.6±5.1) months. The injured segment was T 11 in 1 patient, T 12 in 5 ones, and L 1 in 6 ones. The preoperative spinal nerve injury was graded according to American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA): grade D in 5 cases and grade E in 7 cases. All the patients were treated with PVCR combined with double row nanomimetic bone column implantation and internal fixation. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, shortening rate of the osteotomy area, complications during follow-up, and spinal nerve recovery at the last follow-up were recorded. The visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores, Oswestry Disability Indexes (ODIs), and local kyphosis Cobb angles were compared between pre-surgery, 2 weeks after surgery, and the last follow-up. Results:Incisions in all the 12 patients healed at the primary stage. Their operation duration was (268.4±26.5) min, intraoperative blood loss (994.9±180.4) mL, shortening rate of the osteotomy area 3.94%±7.58%, and follow-up duration (24.1±13.5) months. At 2 weeks after surgery and the last follow-up, the VAS pain scores [(3.08±0.79) points and (1.17±0.58) points] and ODIs (27.59%±6.10% and 16.67%±2.22%) were significantly lower than those before surgery [(8.08±0.79) points and 73.14%±5.64%], and the values at the last follow-up were further significantly lower than those at 2 weeks after surgery (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the Cobb angle at the last follow-up (5.29°±1.30°) compared with 2 weeks after surgery (4.74°±1.31°) ( P>0.05), but there was a statistically significant difference compared with the preoperative value (49.41°±4.40°) ( P<0.05). At the last follow-up, the ASIA grading in all the 12 patients recovered to grade E, with good bone healing at the fixation segment. No screw loosening or fracture was found. Two patients had a biomimetic bone column sinking of 3.5 and 4.0 mm, respectively, but their Marchi's grading was still 0. During the follow-up period, one patient developed proximal junctional kyphosis, and one patient developed an osteoporotic fracture of the proximal vertebral body at the fixed level. Conclusions:In the treatment of stage Ⅲ Kümmell's disease plus kyphosis, PVCR combined with double row nanomimetic bone column implantation and internal fixation can significantly correct the kyphosis and improve clinical symptoms, leading to good clinical efficacy.

Objective Neuromuscular electrical stimulation(NMES)-evoked kinesthetic information in muscle spindle can be purely extracted from the mixed motor and sensory afferents using Ischemic nerve block(INB).This study aims to investigate the somatosensory cortical response evoked by NMES activating muscle spindle afferents in forearm.Methods All subjects performed four experimental tasks designed according to a 2×2 factors,including one factor of the INB state(without INB and within INB)and the other of the stimulation intensity(above and below motor threshold).During the experiment,we recorded EEG data with 64 channels and then beta event-related desynchronization(Beta ERD)were utilized quantize somatosensory cortical excitability evoked by the tasks.The subjective perception about the sensation and movement of the right hand were evaluated by a psychophysical test after the right wrist was performed by INB.Results INB significantly reduced beta ERD on the contralateral somatosensory cortex evoked by NMES above the motor threshold,and there was significant difference of NMES-evoked beta ERD values on the contralateral somatosensory cortex between above and below motor threshold.Meanwhile,contralateral dominance of NMES-evoked beta ERD on the somatosensory cortex was transferred to ipsilateral hemisphere under INB.Conclusion INB can significantly reduce NMES-evoked somatosensory cortical response above motor threshold and decrease cortical perception on the stimulus intensity,which may be due to INB resulting in rapid functional reorganization of somatosensory cortex.

As an important concept in Chinese medicine theory， "qi sinking" is the inheritance and extension of the thought core of sinking of qi in whole body. This article explored the concept of sinking of pectoral qi， center qi， and kidney qi in the theory of qi sinking， and believed that sinking of pectoral qi， stagnation and sinking of center qi， deficiency and sinking of kidney qi were the core pathogenesis of postoperative injury in malignant tumours. Anchored to the method of reinforcing healthy qi and lifting the sunken， this article recommended to identify pattern and treat by guiding supplement and lifting the sunken. For lung gold impairment， heart yang depletion， and pectoral qi sinking， the treatment is to warm and supplement heart and lung， lift pectoral qi， and restore the respiratory function by modified Shengxian Decoction （升陷汤） plus Guizhi Decoction （桂枝汤）； for spleen depletion and pathways blockage， liver failing to act freely， and center qi stagnation and sinking， the treatment is to warm and supplement center qi， raise yang and lift the sunken， and restore the digestive function by modified Buzhong Yiqi Decoction （补中益气汤）； for source exhausted and essence deficiency， liver qi hiding， and kidney qi deficiency to inward invasion， the treatment is to nourish the kidney and astringe the liver， consolidate the original qi and lift qi， improve the pelvic floor dysfunction， and protect the kidney function by modified Liuwei Dihuang Pill （六味地黄丸） plus Shengma Chaihu Decoction （升麻柴胡汤）. Modification need base on different disease patterns and stages， and new ideas for postoperative traditional Chinese medicine treatment and rehabilitation of malignant tumours were provided.
