Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a self-developed micro-normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) system (micro-perfusion device) for preserving isolated porcine limbs. Methods Five healthy Landrace pigs were selected, and their left and right forelimbs were randomly divided into the NMP group and static cold storage (SCS) group. The NMP group was perfused with the self-developed micro-perfusion device and polymerized hemoglobin perfusate for 32 hours at normothermia, while the SCS group was preserved at 4 ℃. Hemodynamic parameters such as perfusion pressure and flow were monitored. The pH value, partial pressure of oxygen (PO₂), lactic acid (Lac), creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the perfusate were measured. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to assess the muscle tissue structure, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling was employed to evaluate muscle cell apoptosis, and immunohistochemistry staining was applied to detect the expressions of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-6. A mixed-effects model was used to analyze the effects of time and treatment methods on tissue structure, cell apoptosis and inflammatory factors. Results The device could stably maintain a perfusion pressure of (69±15) mmHg and a flow rate of (117±42) mL/min. The pH value and electrolytes of the perfusate were generally stable, with PO₂ maintained at a high level. Lac was maintained at 5.38(3.81, 6.45) mmol/L, while CK and LDH increased over time. After 32 hours of perfusion in the NMP group, both the myocyte spacing and apoptosis rate were better than those in the SCS group. Mixed-effects model analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in the effects of NMP treatment and SCS treatment on myocyte spacing and apoptosis rate per unit time (both P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in TNF-α and IL-6 between the two groups, and mixed-effects model analysis showed no statistically significant differences in the effects of NMP treatment and SCS treatment on TNF-α and IL-6 per unit time (both P > 0.05). Conclusions The micro-perfusion device used in this study may achieve 32-hour normothermic preservation in a porcine limb amputation model, maintain basic metabolism and ionic homeostasis, reduce muscle structural damage and cell apoptosis without inducing additional inflammatory responses. This technology is expected to significantly extend the time window for replantation of amputated limbs in disaster rescue and long-distance transportation, providing an important technical basis for clinical translation and subsequent replantation research.

Employing bibliometric methods and adhering to principles of textual research， this study systematically investigated prescription source， formula name， composition evolution， dose evolution， origin， processing， ancient and modern applications of Xiaofengsan. Xiaofengsan， also known as Renshen Xiaofengsan and Chantui Xiaofengsan， was first recorded in the Taiping Huimin Hejijufang（hereafter referred to as Jufang） of the Southern Song dynasty. The formula composition included Schizonepetae Spica， Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma， Chuanxiong Rhizoma， Notoptery Rhizoma et Radix， Bombyx Batryticatus， Saposhnikoviae Radix， Poria， Cicadae Periostracum， Pogostemonis Herba， Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma， Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex and Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium， a total of 12 medicinal materials. In terms of the evolution of formula composition， formulas across dynasties largely aligned with those recorded in Jufang， with only minor variations in application. The results of the formula dosage research indicated that one dose of medication in Jufang corresponded to the following modern dosages：Schizonepetae Spica of 82.6 g， Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma of 82.6 g， Chuanxiong Rhizoma of 82.6 g， Notoptery Rhizoma et Radix of 82.6 g， Bombyx Batryticatus of 82.6 g， Saposhnikoviae Radix of 82.6 g， Poria of 82.6 g， Cicadae Periostracum of 82.6 g， Pogostemonis Herba of 82.6 g， Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma of 82.6 g， Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex of 20.65 g and Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium of 20.65 g， the origins of all the constituent drugs were consistent with the 2020 edition of Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China. The results of the investigation into the decoction method indicated that the aforementioned drugs should be finely ground into powder（pass through the No.5 sieve）， and 8.26 g was taken for each dose， which was taken with the clear liquid obtained by steeping tea leaves in boiling water for several minutes. This mixture was administered three times daily， 30 min after meals. The ancient functional indications of this formula mainly involved dispelling wind-heat， eliminating pathogenic factors and regulating the middle Jiao. It primarily treated all wind-heat syndromes manifesting as skin diseases， predominantly affecting the upper body， especially the head and face. The diseases involved in modern applications were mostly dermatological diseases， including urticaria， eczema， atopic dermatitis and others. In this paper， by combing the relevant ancient literature， the key information of Xiaofengsan was textual researched， in order to provide reference for the modern application and development of this formula.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of rezivertinib versus gefitinib as first-line treatment for epidermal growth factor receptor （EGFR） mutation-positive advanced non-small cell lung cancer （NSCLC） from the perspective of the Chinese healthcare system. METHODS A Markov model was constructed based on the REZOR trial data， with a cycle length of 3 weeks and a study duration of 5 years. Both costs and health outcomes were discounted at an annual rate of 5%. A cost-utility analysis was conducted using 3 times China’s 2024 per capita gross domestic product as the willingness-to-pay （WTP） threshold. The economic differences between the rezivertinib regimen versus the gefitinib regimen were evaluated using the incremental cost- effectiveness ratio （ICER） and incremental net monetary benefit （INMB）. Sensitivity and scenario analyses were performed to verify the robustness of the model. RESULTS Compared to the gefitinib regimen， the rezivertinib regimen saved 225 310.47 yuan and gained an additional 0.57 quality- adjusted life years （QALYs）， resulting in an ICER of －395 562.80 yuan/QALY， which was much lower than the WTP threshold of this study， indicating that rezivertinib had an absolute economic advantage. The INMB analysis （389 041.26 yuan） further validated this conclusion. One-way and probabilistic sensitivity analyses confirmed the robustness of the model. Scenario analysis， incorporating a 15% reduction in drug prices and adjustments to the utility values for progression free survival and progression disease， yielded consistent results with the base case analysis. CONCLUSIONS Compared to gefitinib， rezivertinib as a first-line treatment for EGFR mutation-positive advanced NSCLC has an absolute economic advantage.

Objective To explore the safety and feasibility of 5G remote robot-assisted thoracoscopic anatomic lobectomy and segmentectomy. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent 5G remote robot-assisted thoracoscopic anatomic lobectomy or segmentectomy between July and September 2024. The surgeries were performed collaboratively by Shanghai Chest Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University, and The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University. Perioperative outcomes were recorded and analyzed. Results Ten patients were included, comprising 4 anatomic lobectomies and 6 segmentectomies. The median age was 61.0 (56.0, 72.0) years. The median intraoperative bi-directional network latency was 52.5 (39.0, 54.0) ms. There were no instances of network interruption, robot-related adverse events, or conversions to open thoracotomy. The median postoperative chest tube drainage volume was 500.0 (375.0, 600.0) mL, and the median hospital stay was 5.5 (4.0, 6.0) days. No complications of Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅱor higher occurred. All patients were recurrence-free and alive during the 6-month postoperative follow-up period. Conclusion 5G remote robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery demonstrates high safety and operational stability. This technology shows promising potential for clinical application and is worthy of further development and utilization.

Objective The alkaloids contained in the Chinese herb Sophora flavescens have good anti-inflammatory activity. To investigate the structure-activity relationship between the novel matrine and the anti-inflammatory activity by modifying the structure of matrine. Methods Fourteen novel matrine derivatives were obtained by chemical modification using matrine as the lead compound with matrine and M19 as positive controls. The cytotoxicity of matrine derivatives against RAW264.7 cells was detected by the cell counting kit 8 （CCK8） assay, and the relative amount of NO produced by matrine derivatives against lipopolysaccharide （LPS）-induced inflammation model of RAW264.7 cells was detected using an NO assay kit. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （Elisa） was used to detect the secretion of interleukin-6 （IL-6） and tumor necrosis factor alpha （TNF-α） by matrine derivatives in LPS-induced inflammation model of RAW264.7 cells. Results The novel matrine derivatives all exhibited lower cytotoxicity compared with M19. The NO inhibition rates of the novel matrine derivatives were all higher than that of matrine, and some were higher than that of M19, with compound A12 having the highest NO inhibition rate. Compounds A11 and A12 showed higher IL-6 inhibition than the control M19. Additionally, compound A12 had higher TNF-α inhibition than M19. Conclusion Compound A12 inhibited the strongest inhibition of NO, IL-6 and TNF-α release and had the best anti-inflammatory activity, which provided an important lead compound for this subsequent in-depth study.

Curcumin (Cur), a natural polyphenolic compound extracted from the rhizomes of plants belonging to the Zingiberaceae and Araceae families, has attracted considerable interest for its remarkable antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and anticancer activities. Extensive studies have focused on its potential in treating various diseases, including cancers, neurodegenerative diseases, inflammation, and autoimmune disorders. However, its clinical application has been hampered by inherent physicochemical challenges, such as poor aqueous solubility, short half-life, and low bioavailability. To address these challenges, nanodrug delivery systems have been developed to improve the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of curcumin, thereby enhancing its therapeutic efficacy. This review summarizes the pharmacological activities and underlying mechanisms of curcumin, encompassing its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antiviral, and antibacterial effects. Furthermore, it highlights the significant advancements achieved through the development of curcumin-based nanomedicines. By synthesizing current findings, this review aims to provide insights that may inspire innovative strategies for the future design and broader applications of curcumin nanomedicines.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of daratumumab in treating patients with monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition disease (MIDD) with renal injury.Methods:A case-series analysis study was conducted in MIDD patients with renal injury who received daratumumab treatment at the Department of Nephrology, Ruijin Hospital, affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, from December 2021 to October 2023. The clinical data of patients at the time of diagnosis and during the follow-up period were collected. Hematological and renal responses were assessed and adverse reaction events were recorded.Results:Seven patients diagnosed with MIDD were included in this study, with a male-to-female ratio of 5∶2 and age of 46 (43, 52) years. One patient was light-heavy chain deposition disease, and the remaining 6 patients were light chain deposition disease. Among them, 5 patients had received prior treatment (1-2 lines of treatment with the regimen of cyclophosphamide, bortezomib and dexamethasone), while 2 patients were newly treated, one of whom had already started hemodialysis at diagnosis. Prior to receiving monoclonal antibody treatment, difference of serum free light chain (dFLC) among the 7 patients was 52 (7, 295) mg/L. Excluding 1 patient on dialysis, the remaining 6 patients had 24-hour urinary protein of 1.1 (0.2, 4.7) g, serum creatinine of 178.5 (157.8, 279.8) μmol/L and estimated glomerular filtration rate of 33.9 (24.2, 41.1) ml·min -1·（1.73 m 2） -1. The daratumumab treatment was 17 (10, 20) infusions, with treatment duration of 17 (9, 23) months and follow-up time of 24 (13, 32) months. After treatment, among 5 previously treated patients, hematological response evaluation showed that 1 patient with baseline dFLC <20 mg/L and minimal residual disease negativity upon re-examination, while the remaining 4 patients achieved hematological responses of complete response or better. Renal response evaluation revealed that, except for 1 patient with partial response, the other 4 patients achieved very good partial response (VGPR) or better. Among 2 newly diagnosed patients, both achieved hematological efficacy at least VGPR, with one achieving renal complete response, while the other one remaining dialysis- dependent. Overall, dFLC of 7 patients was 4.9 (2.1, 11.5) mg/L. Among 6 non-dialysis patients, 24-hour urinary protein was 0.19 (0.06, 0.42) g, serum creatinine was 153.0 (120.8, 188.0) μmol/L and estimated glomerular filtration rate was 40.4 (35.2, 57.3) ml·min -1·(1.73 m 2) -1. No severe adverse reactions were observed during daratumumab treatment. Conclusion:The application of daratumumab in the treatment of MIDD with renal injury is effective and well tolerated, achieving high-quality hematological responses, with high renal responses reaching or exceeding VGPR and improvement of renal function.

Objective:To analyze the multimorbidity trends and influencing factors of internet addiction and depressive symptoms among middle school students in Zhejiang Province.Methods:From 2018 to 2023, a multistage stratified random cluster sampling method was used to select middle school students aged 12 to 18 in Zhejiang Province. Internet addiction and depression status were measured by the Internet Addiction Scale and the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale. When both symptoms were present, it was defined as multimorbidity.The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of multimorbidity among middle school students, and a trend Chi-square test was used to analyze the changing trends of internet addiction, depression and multimorbidity prevalence. Results:A total of 193 505 students were included in the study. From 2018 to 2023, the prevalence of multimorbidity of internet addiction and depressive symptoms among middle school students ranged from 2.7% to 3.5%. The prevalence of internet addiction ranged from 4.7% to 6.0%, while the prevalence of depressive symptoms ranged from 18.7% to 25.1%. Multivariate logistic regression showed that boarding students ( OR=1.34 , 95% CI: 1.26-1.42), low-frequency ( OR=1.59, 95% CI: 1.46-1.73), and high-frequency sugary drink consumption ( OR=3.91, 95% CI: 3.55-4.31) increased the risk of multimorbidity among middle school students. In contrast, higher frequencies of moderate-to-high-intensity exercise (medium: OR=0.54, 95% CI: 0.50-0.58; high: OR=0.49, 95% CI: 0.44-0.55) and sufficient sleep ( OR=0.52, 95% CI: 0.49-0.56) were protective factors. From 2018 to 2023, there was no significant change in the trend of multimorbidity prevalence among middle school students ( χ2trend=3.82, P=0.051). The prevalence of internet addiction showed an upward trend ( χ2trend=20.54, P<0.001), while depressive symptoms showed a downward trend ( χ2trend=181.41, P<0.001). Conclusion:The prevalence of internet addiction and depression symptoms among middle school students in Zhejiang Province remains stable from 2018 to 2023. The prevalence of internet addiction shows an upward trend, while the prevalence of depression symptoms shows a downward trend. The risk of multimorbidity is related to students′ boarding, consumption of sugary drinks, lack of exercise, and insufficient sleep.

Objective:To investigate the short-term efficacy of transverse osteotomy of the first metatarsal and fixation with Kirschner wires for mild to moderate hallux valgus (HV).Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. A total of 44 patients (55 feet) with HV who underwent surgical treatment in the Foot and Ankle Ward Two, Tianjin Hospital, Tianjin University from March 2022 to June 2023 were enrolled, including 41 females and 3 males. Based on the different surgical methods, they were divided into a transverse osteotomy group and Scarf group. The transverse osteotomy group was treated with transverse osteotomy of the first metatarsal and fixation with two Kirschner wires, and the Scarf group was treated with "Z" osteotomy and screw fixation. The transverse osteotomy group consisted of 20 patients (25 feet), all female, with an average age of 54.56±3.13 years (range, 50-62 years), including 12 left feet and 13 right feet. Among them, 7 feet had mild HV, and 18 feet had moderate HV. The Scarf osteotomy group included 24 patients (30 feet), 3 males and 21 females, with an average age of 52.43±5.46 years (range, 39-60 years), including 15 left feet and 15 right feet. Among them, 3 feet had mild HV and 27 feet had moderate HV. Observation indicators: (1) The imaging indicators of the two groups were compared before operation and at the last follow-up. These indicators included hallux valgus angle (HVA), intermetatarsal angle (IMA). (2) The clinical efficacy of the two groups was compared, including American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) forefoot score and visual analogue scale (VAS), as well as postoperative complications. (3) The operation time of the two groups was recorded respectively.Results:Both groups were followed up for an average duration of 6-18 months (13.28±4.42 months). There were no significant differences in preoperative baseline characteristics between the transverse osteotomy group and the Scarf group ( P>0.05). The mean operation time was 28.96±4.10 min for the transverse osteotomy group and 45.37±4.72 min for the Scarf group, with a statistically significant difference ( t=13.612, P<0.001). In the transverse osteotomy, the preoperative HVA was 32.48°±3.9°and decreased to 8.59°±3.06° at the last follow-up, while IMA reduced from 14.53°±1.89° before surgery to 5.07°±1.74° at the last follow-up with statistical significance ( P<0.05). Similarly, in the Scarf group, preoperative HVA was 32.83°±2.33° and decreased to 9.87°±2.66° at the last follow-up, whereas IMA decreased from 13.7°±2.03° before surgery to 5.73°±1.74° at the last follow-up with statistical significance ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in HVA and IMA between the two groups before surgery and the last follow-up ( P>0.05). In the transverse osteotomy, the preoperative VAS score was 6.0(5.5, 7.0), and at the last follow-up, it improved to 2.0(1.0, 2.0). The preoperative AOFAS score was 48.40±6.04 and increased significantly to 87.36±5.02 at the last follow-up ( P<0.05). In the Scarf group, the preoperative VAS score was 6.0(5.0, 6.0), which decreased to 2.0(2.0, 2.0) at the last follow-up assessment. The preoperative AOFAS score was 50.70±7.31 and showed a significant improvement with a mean of 84.43±3.45 at the final evaluation ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in preoperative VAS scores between the two groups; however, at the last follow-up assessment, patients in the transverse osteotomy group had higher scores compared to those in the Scarf group, indicating better outcomes ( t=2.610, P=0.012). Postoperatively, only 1 foot in the transverse osteotomy group developed metastatic metatarsal pain, with a complication rate of 4% (1/25). In the Scarf osteotomy group, 1 foot developed superficial wound infection, 1 foot developed metastatic metatarsal pain, and 6 feet experienced joint stiffness, with a complication rate of 27%(8/30). Conclusions:Transverse osteotomy of the first metatarsal and fixation with Kirschner wires is simple, effective, and fast. It can effectively relieve pain, quickly restore function, shorten operation time, reduce soft tissue trauma, and minimize complications, demonstrating good clinical efficacy in the short term.

Objective:To investigate the effect of triglyceride-glucose(TyG) index and alkaline phosphatase(ALP) on brachial-ankle pulse wave conduction velocity(baPWV) in postmenopausal women.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted, enrolling 3 483 postmenopausal women who underwent health checkup at Taihu Sanatorium in Jiangsu Province from March 2020 to June 2021. The physical activity, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C), ALP, and baPWV were collected.Results:Age, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, and LDL-C levels were significantly lower in the normal baPWV group( n=1 971) than those in the elevated baPWV group( n=1 512; P<0.001). Logistic regression identified the TyG index( OR=1.75) and ALP level( OR=1.20) as independent risk factors for elevated baPWV( P<0.001), besides with age, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and regular exercise. Individuals with both high TyG index and elevated ALP had a 2.51-fold higher risk of elevated baPWV(95% CI 2.01-3.14). Adjusted interaction measures(including age, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and regular exercise) showed RERI=2.825(95% CI 1.255-3.905), AP=0.348(95% CI 0.180-0.875), and SI=1.657(95% CI 0.628-3.374). Conclusions:The TyG index and ALP levels are independent risk factors for elevated baPWV in postmenopausal women and exhibit an additive interaction effect on arterial stiffness in this population.
