Objective To explore the non-invasive diagnostic criteria of magnetocardiography (MCG) for coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMVD), and its value in dynamically assessing drug treatment for CMVD. Methods Patients who presented with chest tightness or chest pain at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from September 2024 to March 2025 were consecutively enrolled, and all of whom had non-obstructive coronary arteries on angiography. Using the coronary angiography-derived index of microcirculatory resistance (caIMR) as the gold standard, patients were divided into a normal microcirculation group (caIMR≤40 U) and a CMVD group (caIMR＞40 U). MCG testing was performed using a domestic device (MD-U041001, Mind Medical). Patients in the CMVD group received adenosine treatment and underwent repeat MCG after medication. Differences in MCG parameters between the two groups were analyzed, and a diagnostic model was established. The value of the diagnostic model was analyzed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results A total of 311 patients were included, with 135 in the normal microcirculation group and 176 in the CMVD group. The CMVD group had a significantly higher proportion of males (61.9% vs 47.4%, P＝0.012), and lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels ([1.16±0.31] mmol/L vs [1.24±0.29] mmol/L, P＝0.029) than the normal group. Eleven MCG parameters showed significant differences between the two groups (P＜0.05), among which increased values of mfm_QR_epav, mfm_RS_epmse, space_zeroRTrot, as well as decreased value of mfm_QR_v1 were independent predictors of CMVD. The diagnostic model based on these 11 MCG parameters yielded an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.688 (95%CI 0.629-0.747). The integrated diagnostic model combining clinical risk factors (male, smoking history, HDL-C) with MCG parameters had an AUC of 0.701 (95%CI 0.643-0.759). After adenosine treatment, patients in the CMVD group showed significant decreases in mfm_QR_epav (P＝0.010), mfm_RS_sad (P＝0.013), and mfm_RS_epmse (P＝0.046). Conclusions The model based on MCG parameters demonstrates good diagnostic ability for CMVD; dynamic changes in MCG parameters following adenosine intervention may serve as potential objective indicators for evaluating microcirculatory treatment efficacy.

Lung transplantation is a definitive treatment for end-stage lung disease and can significantly improve patient prognosis. However, postoperative complications such as infection, rejection, ischemia-reperfusion injury and chronic lung allograft dysfunction intertwine to form a complex pathological network, posing persistent challenges to long-term patient survival. In 2025, research teams worldwide have made systematic progress in the field of basic lung transplantation research. By integrating cutting-edge technologies including single-cell multi-omics, spatial transcriptomics and novel animal models, significant breakthroughs have been achieved in the evolutionary dynamics of drug-resistant infections, molecular mechanisms of immune regulation, programmed cell death, optimization of donor lung protection strategies and early warning of chronic lung allograft dysfunction. This article systematically reviews the representative advances in basic lung transplantation research worldwide in 2025, and deeply analyzes the implications of mechanistic breakthroughs for optimizing diagnosis and treatment strategies, aiming to anchor the direction for innovative breakthroughs and clinical translation in basic lung transplantation research.

Objective To investigate the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation(tDCS)combined with resistance training on the performance of college students completing pull-ups,and explore the potential mechanisms underlying the effects of training intervention from the perspective of neuromuscular activity control.Methods A total of 25 male college student volunteers were randomly divided into the tDCS combined with resistance training group(experiment group)and resistance training group(control group).Twelve subjects in the control group received a lat pull-down strength training intervention lasting for 8 weeks,with 4 sets of 12 movement repetitions each,3 times per week.Thirteen subjects in the experimental group received a 20-minute tDCS before the lat pull-up resistance training intervention.Lat pull-down isometric maximal voluntary contraction(MVC)force,lat pull-down maximal repetitions under 80％one-repetition maximum(1RM)loading,and conventional pull-up exercise were tested before and after the training intervention.Surface electromyography(sEMG)signals of the main exertion muscles of the upper limb were recorded during the pull-up exercise test.Results After the training intervention,the number of pull-ups completed by the experimental group and control group increased by 1.74 times and 1.42 times,respectively.Subjects in both groups showed significant improvements in their MVC and lat pull-down maximal repetitions under 80％1RM loading.However,there were no statistical differences in these indicators between groups.Activation levels of the agonist muscles brachioradialis,posterior deltoid,and pectoralis major were significantly decreased after the training compared to those before training for both groups.In addition,the coactivation level of the antagonist triceps brachii muscle in the experimental group significantly decreased from 0.50±0.22 to 0.37±0.09 after the training,while there was no significant change in the control group before and after the intervention.Conclusions Eight-week tDCS combined with resistance training and resistance training alone can significantly improve the pull-up performance of college students,which may be related to the fact that both types of training can significantly improve the active muscle contraction capacity.Combined with resistance training,tDCS is more effective in decreasing the coactivation level of triceps brachii during pull-ups and increasing the contraction efficiency of elbow joint muscles.

Schizophrenia is a chronic and debilitating mental disorder.Around 20%to 40%of patients do not respond well to normal antipsychotic medication,and are ultimately diagnosed with treatment-resistant schizophrenia(TRS),representing the most severe and challenging form of schizophrenia.Currently,clozapine is the standard treatment for TRS.Early identification and standardized treatment can be beneficial to patients with TRS by controlling acute-phase symptoms as soon as possible,reducing suicidal rate and improving their quality of life.Under the guidance of the Steering Committee,this consensus was formed after multiple discussions by 30 psychiatric experts and anonymous Delphi surveys including 17 consensus opinions on treatment-resistant schizophrenia,which cover risk factors and prevention,diagnosis and evaluation,standardized clozapine treatment and management of adverse reactions,treatment regimens for clozapine resistance and intolerance,and psychosocial intervention,etc.The consensus-making process also incorporated evidence-based medicine to help standardize and guide diagnosis and treatment for adults with TRS in China.

Objective To evaluate the safety and therapeutic efficacy of three-dimensional(3D)-printed personalized cervical correction pillows for treating cervical spondylotic radiculopathy.Methods A finite element model was established to simulate and analyze the biomechanical changes in cervical spine before and after using the pillow.Additionally,20 patients with chronic neck pain were included to analyze changes in visual analogue scale(VAS)scores,neck disability index(NDI),pressure pain threshold(PPT),Borden value,cervical lordosis,T1 slope,cervical slope,and thoracic inlet angle before and after using the pillow.Results Finite element analysis indicated that the maximum stress on vertebral bodies increased by 64.35％and the maximum stress on cartilage tissues by 5.09％after using the pillow.The Borden value improved by 45.75％.Clinical studies showed a significant reduction in VAS scores,NDI,and PPT after treatment(P＜0.05),while PPT,Borden value,cervical lordosis,T1 slope,and thoracic inlet angle significantly increased(P＜0.05).Conclusions The 3D-printed personalized cervical correction pillow is safe and effective in alleviating neck pain and improving cervical curvature,and it provides a new and effective non-surgical treatment option for cervical spondylotic radiculopathy,with significant clinical implications.

[Objective]To investigate the potential value of thyroid hormones in cerebrospinal fluid in predicting autism-like behaviors induced by hypothyroidism in pregnant rats.[Methods]Twelve pregnant Wistar rats were randomly divided into a control group and a hypothyroidism group(hypothyroidism model group).Offspring from both groups had serum and cerebrospinal fluid levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH),total triiodothyronine(TT3),total thyroxine(TT4),free triiodothyronine(FT3),and free thyroxine(FT4)levels in serum and cerebrospinal fluid.Ultrasonic vocalization tests were conducted on postnatal day 2(P2),day 7(P7),and day 14(P14),while behavioral tests using the three-box social interaction test were performed on day 21(P21).[Results]Compared with the control group,free T4(FT4)levels in the cerebrospinal fluid of the hypothyroidism group were significantly reduced during the developmental period(P0-P21;P2:P<0.05;P7:P<0.05;P14:P<0.01;P21:P<0.01),with no statistical difference between the two groups only at P0(P>0.05).In the ultrasonic vocalization(USV)tests,the number and duration of USVs in offsprings from the hypothyroidism group were significantly reduced compared with those of the control group on P2,P7 and P14:for USV counts(P2:P<0.05;P7:P<0.001;P14:P<0.01);for USV duration(P2:P<0.05;P7:P<0.001;P14:P<0.001).In the three-box social tests,offsprings of the hypothyroidism group showed significantly reduced sniffing time with unfamiliar rats at P21 compared to the control group(all P<0.001).The FT4 levels in cerebrospinal fluid had a significantly positive correlation with USV counts(P7:r=0.883,P<0.05;P14:r=0.902,P<0.05)and sniffing time with unfamiliar rats(r=0.814,P<0.01).[Conclusion]Measuring free T4 in cerebrospinal fluid can predict autism-like behaviors in offsprings of rats induced by hypothyroidism during pregnancy.
