Nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF), predominantly affecting the elderly, can lead to intractable pain, vertebral collapse, progressive kyphotic deformity, and neurological impairment, significantly compromising patients′ quality of life. There exists considerable debate on diagnosis and management of OVF, encompassing key issues such as clinical diagnosis and staging criteria for nonunion, surgical indications and procedure selection, and postoperative rehabilitation planning. Currently, there lacks standardized clinical guideline and expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of OVF nonunion in China. To address this gap, Minimally Invasive Surgery Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Osteoporosis Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Prevention and Rehabilitation Committee for Osteoporosis of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery Branch of China Association for Geriatric Care jointly organized domestic experts in spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rehabilitation to formulate the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures ( version 2025), based on existing literature and clinical experience and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and practicality. The guideline provided 13 evidence-based recommendations encompassing diagnosis and treatment of OVF nonunion, aiming to standardize its clinical management.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.

Objective To explore potential predictive biomarkers for preeclampsia by analyzing the expression and characteristics of vascular-related inflammatory proteins in the serum of preeclamptic pregnant women.Methods A case-control study was conducted from Sep 2017 to Sep 2018 in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University.Preeclamptic pregnant women and normotensive pregnant controls during the same period were recruited.The concentration of 12 vascular inflammation-related proteins in the patients'serum was determined by multiplex flow cytometry.The vascular-related inflammatory molecules were subjected to differential analysis by non-parametric t-test to obtain preeclampsia-related vascular inflammatory proteins.Finally,high-risk preeclampsia pregnancy serum samples from the biobank were retrieved.Serum concentrations of preeclampsia-related vascular inflammatory proteins were determined,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was conducted for preliminary predictive assessment of preeclampsia.Results This study conducted a quantitative analysis of serum vascular inflammatory proteins in 39 cases of preeclampsia and 43 cases of control pregnant women,detecting 10 vascular inflammatory proteins expressed in maternal serum.Among these,myoglobin and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1(VCAM-1)exhibited significant elevation in the serum of preeclamptic pregnant women,while matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)showed a marked decrease.ROC curve analysis revealed that in 96 high-risk early pregnancy women,the area under the curve(AUC)for VCAM-1 reached 0.802,whereas myoglobin and MMP-9 did not significantly predict the occurrence of preeclampsia.Conclusion Preeclampsia patients exhibit abnormal expression of serum inflammatory proteins,among which VCAM-1 may be a potential biological marker for early pregnancy preeclampsia risk prediction.
