Objective To investigate the characteristics and correlation between peak oxygen uptake(VO?peak)and heart rate recov-ery(HRR)during cardiopulmonary exercise test(CPET)in patients with coronary borderline lesions.Methods From January,2022 to January,2024,183 patients with coronary borderline lesions in Beijing Bo'ai Hospital were divided into low cardiorespiratory fitness(LCF)group(n=61),moderate cardiorespiratory fitness(MCF)group(n=62)and high cardiorespiratory fitness(HCF)group(n=60)based on VO?peak.Their characteristics and CPET parameters including VO?peak,exercise-phase heart rate(HR1,HR2,HR3),and post-exercise heart rate recovery(HRR1,HRR2,HRR3)were analyzed.Results After adjusting for age and body mass index,analysis of covariance showed that the peak heart rate,HR1,HR2 and HR3 were the lowest in LCF group(F>5.388,P<0.01).Repeated-measures analysis of variance showed that the inter-and intra-group effects were significant in HRR(F>14.561,P<0.001).Partial correlation analy-sis showed that VO?peak positively correlated with HRR1(r=0.404,P<0.001),HRR2(r=0.379,P<0.001)and HRR3(r=0.425,P<0.001).Conclusion In patients with coronary artery borderline lesions,VO?peak demonstrated a significant inverse correlation with HRR,the lower the VO?peak,the more delays of HRR.

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.

Objective:To evaluate the effects and underlying mechanisms of metabolites derived from the kidney-reinforcing, blood circulation-activating, and collateral dredging decoction on the proliferation of multiple myeloma (MM) KM3 cells.Methods:MM KM3 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were treated with 3%, 6%, 9%, or 12% metabolites of kidney-reinforcing, blood circulation-activating, and collateral dredging decoction. Cell viability was assessed using the CCK-8 assay. Apoptosis and necrosis were evaluated using flow cytometry and TUNEL staining. Mitochondrial and cellular ultrastructural changes were examined using transmission electron microscopy. mRNA and protein expression levels of dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1), mitochondrial fission protein 1 (Fis1), mitochondrial fission factor (MFF), PTEN-induced kinase 1 (Pink1), and E3 ubiquitin ligase (Parkin) were determined through quantitative real-time PCR and western blotting. High-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) combined with network pharmacology, was utilized for reverse verification of the pharmacodynamic mechanisms and therapeutic targets underlying the anti-MM activity of this decoction.Results:The metabolites of the kidney-reinforcing, blood circulation-activating, and collateral dredging decoction inhibited KM3 cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner. Transmission electron microscopy revealed increased mitochondrial fission and autophagic structures, with effects intensifying at higher metabolite concentrations. mRNA and protein expression of Drp1, Fis1, MFF, Pink1, and Parkin were significantly upregulated in treatment groups compared to controls ( P<0.05), with the most pronounced effects observed in the 12% metabolite group ( P<0.01). HPLC-MS/MS identified 121 bioactive compounds in BHTF, which shared 474 overlapping targets with MM. Enrichment analysis suggested that BHTF exerts antitumor effects primarily through apigenin, palmatine, and other key components by modulating TNF, NF-κB, and mitophagy pathways. Conclusion:The kidney-reinforcing and blood circulation-activating and collateral dredging decoction suppresses the proliferation of MM KM3 cells, potentially through mechanisms involving the regulation of mitochondrial dynamics and induction of autophagy.

Objective To explore the significance of detecting serum semaphorin 4D(Sema4D),soluble growth-stimulation expression gene 2 protein(sST2),and Omentin-1 in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy(HCM)accompanied by atrial fibrillation(AF),and to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods A total of 90 patients with HCM and atrial fibrillation admitted to Tsinghua University Yuquan Hospital(Tsinghua University Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital)from January 2022 to December 2023 were selected as the HCM-AF group,and another 90 patients with sinus rhythm HCM in the same stage were selected as the sinus rhythm HCM group.The serum levels of Sema4D,sST2,Omentin-1 and cardiac function indicators[left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD)]were compared between the two groups.The correlation between serum Sema4D,sST2,Omentin-1 and cardiac function indicators,as well as the severity of atrial fibrillation in HCM was analyzed.The predictive value of three indicators for atrial fibrillation in HCM was analyzedand the predictive efficacy of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation(PRFA)for the recurrence of atrial fibrillation in HCM patients.Results The serum levels of Sema4D and sST2 in the HCM-AF group were higher than those in the sinus rhythm HCM group,while the levels of Omentin-1 and LVEF were lower than those in the sinus rhythm HCM group,with statistically significant differences(t=2.517～12.325,all P<0.05).The serum levels of Sema4D and sST2 in the persistent subgroup were higher than those in the paroxysmal subgroup,while the levels of Omentin-1 and LVEF were lower than those in the paroxysmal subgroup,the differences were statistically significant(t=2.635～15.931,all P<0.05).Spearman/Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum Sema4D and sST2 were negatively correlated with LVEF(r=-0.57,-0.609,all P<0.001),while Omentin-1 was positively correlated with LVEF(r=0.593,P<0.001).Serum Sema4D and sST2 were positively correlated with the severity of AF in HCM(r=0.625,0.631,all P<0.001),while Omentin-1 was negatively correlated with the severity of AF in HCM(r=-0.617,P<0.001).The serum levels of Sema4D and sST2 in the recurrence subgroup were higher than those in the non-recurrence subgroup,while the serum level of Omentin-1 was lower(t=12.805,7.049,13.345,all P<0.05).The receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curve results showed that the AUC(95%CI)of serum Sema4D,sST2 and Omentin-1 combined to predict atrial fibrillation in HCM was 0.916(0.865～0.952),higher than the individual predictions of the three(Z=3.621,3.657,0.318,all P<0.05).The AUC(95%CI)of serum Sema4D,sST2 and Omentin-1 combined to predict the recurrence of atrial fibrillation in patients with HCM after radiofrequency ablation was 0.931(0.857～0.973),higher than the individual predictions of the three(Z=4.115,3.657,3.853,all P<0.05).Conclusion The levels of serum Sema4D and sST2 in the serum of patients with HCM complicated with atrial fibrillation were elevated,while the level of Omentin-1 was drcreased.Detecting serum Sema4D,sST2 and Omentin-1 has high performance in predicting the occurrence of atrial fibrillation in patients with HCM and the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation therapy.
