Postoperative infection of internal fixation of closed fractures the lower limbs in adults represents a devastating complication, characterized by diagnostic challenges, prolonged treatment duration and high disability rates. Current management of these infections faces multiple challenges, such as difficulties in early accurate diagnosis, and various controversies about the treatment plan, leading to poor overall diagnosis and treatment results. To address these issues, based on evidence-based medicine and principles with emphasis on scientific rigor, clinical applicability and innovation, the Trauma Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Orthopedics Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Trauma Orthopedics and Polytrauma Group of the Resuscitation and Emergency Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association have collaboratively organized a panel of relevant experts to develop the Guideline for diagnosis and treatment of infection after internal fixation of closed lower limb fractures in adults ( version 2025). The guideline proposed 10 recommendations, aiming to provide a foundation for standardized diagnosis and treatment of postoperative infection in adults with closed lower limb fractures.

Sacroiliac complex injuries are commonly seen in high-energy pelvic fractures. The injuries make a big difference in treatment patterns due to the diverse injury types, posing considerable challenges in formulating optimal treatment strategies, and hence are persistent clinical difficulties in orthopedic trauma. The clinical management of sacroiliac complex injuries presents several key challenges such as a non-negligible rate of missed diagnoses in associated vascular and visceral injuries, absence of standardized protocols for surgical approaches and reduction-fixation strategies across different injury patterns, and ongoing controversies regarding surgical indications and optimal timing for patients combined with concomitant lumbosacral plexus injuries. Currently, no systematic clinical guidelines are available for the diagnosis and treatment of sacroiliac complex injuries both domestically and internationally. To this end, the Pelvic and Acetabular Surgery Group, Orthopedic Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care and Orthopedic Physician Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized a panel of domestic experts in the field to develop the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of sacroiliac complex injuries ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medicine and adhering to the principles of scientific rigor, clinical applicability, and innovation. These guidelines provided 11 recommendations covering diagnosis, therapeutic principles and techniques, management protocols for lumbosacral plexus injuries, outcome evaluation, and postoperative rehabilitation pathways, etc., aiming to standardize the clinical management of sacroiliac complex injuries.

Objective The aim of this study was to analyze the value of quantitative parameters of dynamic contrast en-hanced magnetic resonance imaging(DCE-MRI)combined with the detection of non-SMC condensing Ⅰ complex subunit H(NCAPH)in the diagnosis of early breast cancer.Methods Ninety-six patients with breast nodules who were treated in the depart-ment of Breast Surgery at Longgang District Maternity&Child Healthcare Hospital in Shenzhen from March 2020 to March 2022 were selected as the study objects.DCE-MRI examination was performed on all patients,and transport constant(Ktrans)and rate constant(Kep)were recorded.Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the expression of serum NCAPH mRNA.Based on the results of pathological examination as the gold standard,the patients with breast nodules diag-nosed pathologically as the benign group and the patients with breast cancer as the breast cancer group,the differences of DCE-MRI quantitative parameters Ktrans,Kep and serum NCAPH mRNA between the benign group and the breast cancer group were compared.The accuracy,sensitivity and specificity of serum NCAPH mRNA and their combination in the diagnosis of early breast cancer were different.Kappa test was used to compare the consistency with the pathological results.Results The results of pathological examina-tion confirmed that there were 31 benign nodules and 65 breast cancer in 96 patients with breast nodules.Ktrans,Kep and NCAPH mRNA in the breast cancer group were significantly higher than those in the benign group(P<0.05);The AUC of Ktrans,Kep and NCAPH in the diagnosis of early breast cancer was 0.944,which was significantly higher than that of Ktrans and Kep alone,with the sensitivity and specificity of 96.92% and 77.42% ,respectively;Ktrans and Kep combined with NCAPH detected 7 false positives and 2 false negatives,with a Kappa value of 0.776(P<0.05),which was consistent with the pathological results;The sensitivity of DCE-MRI quantitative parameters combined with NCAPH in the diagnosis of early breast cancer was significantly higher than that of DCE-MRI quantitative parameters and serum NCAPH alone(P<0.05).Conclusion The expression of Ktrans,Kep and serum NCAPH mRNA in breast cancer patients with DCE-MRI quantitative parameters is high.Ktrans,Kep combined with serum NCAPH detection has certain clinical values in the diagnosis of early breast cancer.

BACKGROUND:With the continuous advancement of medical technology,the combination of oblique lumbar interbody fusion and percutaneous pedicle screw fixation has become a common method for treating lumbar degenerative diseases;however,there is still a lack of in-depth research on the relationship between changes in anterior convexity angles at different postoperative segments and fusion device settlement.OBJECTIVE:To explore the relationship between changes in anterior convexity angle of different segments and Cage subsidence after oblique lumbar interbody fusion combined with percutaneous pedicle screw fixation surgery.METHODS:Patients(93 cases)with lumbar degenerative diseases who underwent oblique lumbar interbody fusion combined with percutaneous pedicle screw fixation surgery in Weifang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from February 2019 to April 2023 were selected as the research subjects.According to the postoperative disc height loss value,they were divided into Cage subsidence group(25 cases,＞2 mm)and non-Cage subsidence group(68 cases,＜2 mm).Multiple Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for cage subsidence.Stepwise regression was utilized to evaluate the relationship of each risk factor and Cage subsidence.Risk prediction model was built and evaluated.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)After adjusting for confounding factors,there was still independent correlation between lumbar lordosis loss value and segmental lordosis improvement value and Cage subsidence risk(P＜0.05).(2)Age,oswestry disability index,disc height improvement value,segmental lordosis improvement value,and lumbar lordosis loss value were all independent influencing factors for the occurrence of Cage subsidence(P＜0.05).Among them,age,lumbar lordosis loss value,disc height improvement value,and segmental lordosis improvement value were most closely related to Cage subsidence.(3)The results of multivariate Logistic regression model analysis showed that when P=0.80,the Jordan index was the highest and the prediction effect was the best,with accuracy of 89.27％,sensitivity of 86.67％,and specificity of 89.89％.The model evaluation results showed that it had good discrimination and high accuracy.(4)As the lumbar lordosis loss value and segmental lordosis improvement value increase,the risk of Cage subsidence increases,which affects clinical efficacy.(5)It is indicated that age,lumbar lordosis loss value,disc height improvement value,and segmental lordosis improvement value are most closely related to Cage subsidence,and clinical doctors should pay more attention.

Objective:To analyze the distribution and epidemiological characteristics of common non-bacterial pathogens in hospitalized children with acute respiratory tract infections(ARTI)from a multi-center study covering 4 regions in Fujian Province in 2023.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted using medical record analysis.A total of 22 769 hospitalized children with ARTI were enrolled from January to December 2023 across seven regional pediatric medical centers in Fujian Province (covering four major geographical divisions of Fuzhou, Nanping, Sanming and Longyan; all selected hospitals were regional children′s medical centers).Using single-tube multiplex PCR with fragment analysis on a Sanger sequencing platform, the nucleic acids of 11 common non-bacterial respiratory pathogens were tested in nasopharyngeal swabs collected from 22 769 children. These pathogens included influenza A virus(FluA), influenza B virus(FluB), parainfluenza virus(PIV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), adenovirus (ADV), human rhinovirus (HRV), human bocavirus (HBoV), human coronavirus (HCoV), human metapneumovirus(HMPV), Mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP), and Chlamydia (Ch).

Epidemiological features, including positive detection rates, pathogen profiles, and correlations with region, sex, age and month, were analyzed. Results:Among 22 769 children with ARTI, pathogens were detected in 16 213 cases (71.21%), including 13 340 single infections (58.59%).The detection rates of single pathogens in descending order were human rhinovirus (HRV, 12.95%), Mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP, 12.27%), respiratory syncytial virus(RSV, 11.12%), influenza A virus (Flu-A, 7.98%), parainfluenza virus(PIV, 4.66%), human metapneumovirus(HMPV, 4.60%), adenovirus(ADV, 2.70%), human bocavirus(HBoV, 0.84%), human coronavirus(HCoV, 0.82%), influenza B virus(Flu-B, 0.47%) and Chlamydia(Ch, 0.18%).Mixed infections occurred in 2 873 cases(12.62%), primarily dual infections(2 679 cases).Regional analysis revealed significant disparities:Luoyuan County Hospital (Fuzhou) exhibited the highest total detection rate(86.59%, 1 414/1 633)and mixed infection rate(23.27%, 380/1 633)(both P<0.001), with notably elevated MP (26.39%, 431/1 633);Jian′ou City Hospital(Nanping) ranked second for Flu-A(14.21%, 409/2 879), RSV(13.20%, 380/2 879) and mixed infections(17.12%, 493/2 879);Lianjiang County Hospital(Fuzhou) showed distinct prevalence of Flu-A(10.68%, 130/1 217), PIV(6.00%, 73/1 217), and HBoV(1.73%, 21/1 217); Yong′an City Hospital (Sanming) reported high MP (26.07%, 238/913) and RSV(12.38%, 113/913);Shaowu City Hospital(Nanping) was dominated by MP (18.60%, 407/2 188) and HRV(13.39%, 293/2 188); Tingzhou Hospital(Longyan) had the highest HRV (17.88%, 407/2 276) and Flu-B (0.75%, 17/2 276); and Fuzhou Children′s Hospital showed elevated ADV(3.38%, 394/11 663) and HCoV(1.08%, 126/11 663). Except for Flu-B(0.47%, 108/22 769; P=0.054) and Ch(0.18%, 40/22769; P=0.900), all pathogens and mixed infections exhibited significant regional variations ( P<0.05).Gender analysis indicated higher detection rates of HRV, RSV, Flu-A, ADV, PIV, HBoV and mixed infections in males, while MP, HMPV, Flu-B, HCoV, and Ch were more prevalent in females, with statistically significant differences for HRV and MP (both P<0.001). Age stratification showed the highest overall detection rate in the 3-<6 years group (75.48%; P<0.001): RSV and Ch peaked in infants (<1 year), HRV, PIV, ADV and HBoV in toddlers (1-<3 years), HMPV, HCoV, and mixed infections in preschool children (3-<6 years), and MP, Flu-A and Flu-B in older children (6-<18 years).Analyzing the prevalent months, the monthly prevalence trends of pathogens in various regions are similar.Seasonal trends demonstrated year-round HRV activity (peaking in spring/autumn), MP prevalence in autumn/winter, RSV surges in spring-summer (April-June) and late summer-autumn (August-October), and Flu-A predominanced in winter-spring. Conclusion:Multiplex PCR with fragment analysis demonstrated high diagnostic efficacy. The top 4 non-bacterial pathogens in Fujian Province′s ARTI-hospitalized children in 2023 were HRV, MP, RSV and Flu-A. Pathogen distribution exhibited significant regional, age and seasonal variations, emphasizing the need for targeted prevention strategies.
