Good endometrial receptivity is an essential factor for embryo implantation,and gene expression in endometrial tissue during the window of implantation(WOI)is closely related to receptivity.Transcriptome sequencing technology enables the identification of gene expression profiles of endometrium during different menstrual phases,as well as microRNAs and long-chain non-coding RNA sequences involved in regulating gene expression.Combining this technology with bioinformatics analysis provides a better understanding of specific gene expression during the receptive period and offers technical support for studying its regulatory mechanism.Moreover,gene expression profiles of the endometrium during different menstrual phases hold significant clinical application value for accurately assessing endometrium receptivity in infertility patients and those with repeated implantation failure,thereby guiding individualized embryo transfer strategies.This review summarizes the progress of transcriptome sequencing in evaluating human endometrial receptivity and discusses future research directions.This review aims to understand the complex molecular mechanisms of endometrial receptivity formation and regulation from the transcriptional level,in order to improve the implantation rate of embryos in assisted reproductive technology and reduce the abortion rate.

Objective To analyze the relationship between obesity indicators,muscle mass indices and hypertension in Dongxiang adults,and establish and evaluate a Nomogram model based on these indicators used to predict the risk of hypertension in this population.Methods A total of 1209 Dongxiang adults from Linxia Prefecture,Gansu Province were selected,11 obesity indicators and 5 muscle mass indicators,including neck circumference(NC),waist-to-hip ratio(WHR),BMI,ponderal index(PI),conicity index(CI),a body shape index(ABSI),body roundness index(BRI),abdominal volume index(AVI),hip index(HI),body adiposity index(BAI),and the ratio of limb fat mass to body weight(LFWR),appendicular skeletal muscle mass(ASM),appendicular skeletal muscle mass index(ASMI),appendicular skeletal muscle mass to BMI ratio(ASMBMI),skeletal muscle index(SMI),and trunk muscle mass to body weight ratio(TMWR)were measured.Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the relationship between each indicator and hypertension.Nomogram prediction model was constructed and validated by using R language.Results Among Dongxiang males,the NC,BMI,PI,WHR,CI,AVI,BRI,BAI,ASM,ASMI,and LFWR were lower in the normal and high-normal blood pressure groups compared to the hypertensive group,while SMI,ASMBMI,and TMWR were higher.Among females,similar trends were observed,with lower NC,BMI,PI,WHR,CI,AVI,BRI,BAI,and LFWR in the normal blood pressure and high-normal blood pressure groups compared to the hypertensive group,but SMI,ASMBMI,and TMWR higher than the hypertensive group(P＜0.05).Results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that age,NC,and WHR were risk factors for hypertension in Dongxiang adults,while was protective factor(P＜0.05).The area under curve(AUC)of the Nomogram model constructed based on these factors was 0.796,and the Bootstrap internal validation C-index was 0.7957,indicating good calibration of the model.Conclusion The Nomogram model constructed based on obesity and muscle mass indicators has good predictive efficiency for predicting the risk of hypertension in Dongxiang adults.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of drawing-based method in medical courses and their impact on students' learning habits,academic performance,and comprehensive competencies,in order to meet the demand for high-quality,interdisciplinary,and innovative talent,and provide theoretical support for integrating aesthetic education into medical training.Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted among medical students(n=310)at Dalian Medical University,covering the frequency of using drawing method and their effects on learning outcomes,innovation ability,and humanistic qualities.Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test(P＜0.05).Results Totally 93.6％of students approved of using drawing method for learning medical courses,with 70.8％having developed a habit of drawing-based learning.Students with stronger drawing skills were more inclined to use drawing method and supported their application in teaching.The frequency of drawing-based learning was positively correlated with anatomy scores(P＜0.05).Students generally agreed that drawing method enhanced knowledge comprehension,learning interest,long-term memory,innovation ability,critical thinking,and humanistic qualities.However,students with weaker drawing skills perceived drawing method as potentially increasing learning burdens and being less efficient,but this perception significantly decreased with increased drawing frequency(P＜0.05).Conclusion Drawing methods are widely used in medical courses and effectively improve learning outcomes and comprehensive competencies.Drawing proficiency and frequency are key factors influencing students' acceptance and learning effectiveness.Future efforts should focus on promoting drawing method,strengthening students' drawing skills,and optimizing learning processes to deepen the integration of aesthetic education in medical training.

In this study,we aim to evaluate the immunogenicity of the whole-cell proteins isolated from Mycobacterium marinum(MM).The findings of this research may provide scientific basis for the development of new candidate tuberculosis vaccines.Both MM 95014 and Mycobacteriumtuberculosis(MTB)H37Rv cells were routinely cultured and collected.After inactivation,whole-cell proteins were extracted by low-temperature ultrasonic fragmentation and mixed with DDA/Poly:IC adjuvant.The mixture was administered to BALB/c mice subcutaneously with 50 mg/mouse twice with an interval of 10 days.Blood sample was collected before each immunization,as well as 10 days after the last immunization.Blood samples and spleen tissue extracts were measured for serum antibody potency and cytokine levels by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.An in vitro growth inhibition assay(MGIA)was used to assess the ability of mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages,collected after immunization with MM whole-cell proteins,to inhibit MTB growth.A MTB whole mycobacterium proteome microarray was applied to analyze the interaction between the serum in MM immunization group and MTB proteins.Our results indicated that,compared with the adjuvant group,MM whole-cell proteins induced higher levels of Th1 cytokines(IL-2,IFN-γ,IL-12,TNF-α)in the mice.The IgG and IgM antibody titers induced by MM immunization group reached 1∶608 874 and 1∶304 437,respectively.The MGIA results showed that the MM immunization group was able to significantly inhibit MTB growth in vitro.The MTB proteome microarray results indicated that there were 226 and 324 cross-proteins with IgG and IgM antibodies,respectively.This study suggested that MM whole-cell proteins can induce high levels of cellular and humoral immune responses in mice and exhibit strong inhibition of MTB growth in vitro.The results may suggest potential application value of MM whole-cell proteins as a novel candidate vaccine for tuberculosis.

Objective To investigate the influence of different disinfectants on the ultrasound-guided internal jugular vein puncture and adhesive application.Methods A total of 102 emergency patients with traumatic hemorrhage who underwent ultrasound-guided internal jugular vein puncture and catheterization were selected as the study subjects and randomly divided into the iodine group(51 cases)and the chlorhexidine-alcohol group(51 cases).Iodophor(0.5%effective iodine)and 2.0%chlorhexidine gluconate+70.0%ethanol were used for disinfection before puncture,respectively.The disinfection effect of the puncture site,puncture condition,ultrasound imaging,and adhesive force of the application of patients were statistically compared between the two groups.Results There was no significant difference in the bacterial count before disinfection,the bacterial count after disinfection or the qualified rate of disinfection at the puncture site of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).There were significant differences in the success rate of one-time puncture,the number of puncture and the time of puncture and catheterization between the two groups(P<0.05).There were significant differences in the rate of clear ultrasound images,adhesive force and rate of warping or shedding of the application between the two groups(P<0.05).Conclusion For emergency patients with traumatic hemorrhage,using iodophor(0.5%effective iodine)and 2.0%chlorhexidine gluconate+70.0%ethanol disinfection before ultrasound-guided internal jugular vein puncture can achieve good disinfection effects.Iodine disinfection can obtain clearer ultrasound images and a higher success rate of one-time puncture,but the adhesive force of the application is poor,making it prone to warping or shedding.

Cervical spinal cord injury without fracture-dislocation (CSCIWFD) is referred to as a special type of cervical spinal cord injury characterized by traumatic spinal cord dysfunction and no significant bony structural abnormalities on imagines. Duo to the high risk of missed diagnosis during the initial consultation, CSCIWFD may lead to progressive neurological deterioration or even complete paralysis, severely impacting patients′ prognosis. Currently, there are no established consensuses over the diagnosis and treatment of CSCIWFD, such as the lack of evidence-based standards for indications of non-surgical treatment and risk of secondary neurological injury, as well as debates over the optimal timing for surgical intervention and indications for different surgical approaches. To address these issues, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the relevant fields to formulate Diagnosis and treatment guideline for acute cervical spinal cord injury without fracture- dislocation in adults ( version 2025) . Based on evidence-based medicine and the principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability, the guidelines proposed 11 recommendations covering terminology, diagnosis, evaluation treatment, and rehabilitation, etc., aiming to standardize the management of CSCIWFD.

Vertebral refracture following percutaneous vertebral augmentation (PVA) is commonly seen in elderly patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures (OTLCF). It can lead to recurrent pain, loss of vertebral height, progression of kyphosis, and even neurological dysfunction, significantly impairing patients′ quality of life. Current diagnosis and treatment face multiple challenges, including high misdiagnosis rate, difficulty in choosing between surgical and non-surgical treatment options, lack of standardized surgical protocols, interference from intralesional bone cement during procedures, inadequate stability of internal fixation in osteoporotic bone, and suboptimal compliance of anti-osteoporotic therapy. Establishing a standardized diagnostic and therapeutic framework is urgently needed. To standardize the management process and improve outcomes for vertebral refractures after PVA in elderly OTLCF patients, Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the field to develop Guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of vertebral refracture after percutaneous vertebral augmentation in elderly patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025), based on current literature and clinical experience, and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability. A total of 11 recommendations were proposed, encompassing diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of vertebral refracture after PVA in elderly patients with OTLCF, aiming to provide a foundation for a standardized management.

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.

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.
