ObjectiveTo investigate the present situation of input, output, outcome and impact of all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia in China, and analyze how the input predict the output, outcome and impact. MethodsFrom March 1st to April 30th, 2025, a questionnaire survey was conducted on all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia, covering four dimensions: input, output, outcome and impact. A total of 1 365 questionnaires were distributed. The input included four items: laws and policies, human resources, equipment and facilities, and rehabilitation information management. The output included two items: technical paths and benefits/effectiveness. The outcome included three items: coverage rates, rehabilitation interventions and functional results. The impact included two items: health and sustainability. Each item contained several questions, all of which were described in a positive way. Each question was scored from one to five. A lower score indicated that the situation of the community-based rehabilitation station was more in line with the content described in the question. Regression analysis was performed using the total score of each item of input dimension as independent variables, and the total scores of the output, outcome and impact dimensions as dependent variables. ResultsA total of 1 262 valid questionnaires were collected. The mean values of input, output, outcome and impact of community-based rehabilitation stations were 1.827 to 1.904, with coefficient of variation of 45.892% to 49.239%. The regression analysis showed that, rehabilitation information management, human resources, and laws and policies significantly predicted the output dimension (R² = 0.910, P < 0.001). Meanwhile, all four items in the input dimension predicted both the outcome (R² = 0.850, P < 0.001) and impact dimensions (R² = 0.833, P < 0.001). ConclusionInput, output, outcome and impact of the community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia were generally in line with the content of the questions, although some imbalances were observed. Additionally, the input of community-based rehabilitation stations could significantly predict their output, outcome and impact.

Based on copper death, this study investigates the effect and mechanism of Shenmai Injection on isoproterenol(ISO)-induced myocardial fibrosis(MF) in rats. SPF-grade male SD rats were randomly divided into a normal group, model group, captopril(5 mg·kg~(-1)) positive control group, and Shenmai Injection low(6 mL·kg~(-1)), medium(9 mL·kg~(-1)), and high(12 mL·kg~(-1)) dose groups. Except for the normal group, the rats in the other groups were subcutaneously injected with ISO(5 mg·kg~(-1)) once a day for 10 consecutive days to establish an MF model. Starting from the second day after successful modeling, intraperitoneal injections of the respective treatments were administered for 28 consecutive days. Hematoxylin-eosin(HE) and Masson staining were used to observe pathological changes and fibrosis levels in the myocardial tissue. Colorimetry was employed to detect serum Cu~(2+) concentration in rats. The levels of inflammatory cytokines interleukin-6(IL-6), interleukin-1β(IL-1β), interleukin-18(IL-18), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), as well as mitochondrial energy metabolites adenosine triphosphate(ATP), adenosine diphosphate(ADP), and adenosine monophosphate(AMP) in serum were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Western blot was performed to detect the expression of collagen Ⅰ(Col-Ⅰ), collagen Ⅲ(Col-Ⅲ), and copper death-related proteins dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase(DLAT), ferredoxin 1(FDX1), lipoic acid synthetase(LIAS), and heat shock protein 70(HSP70) in myocardial tissue. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression of DLAT, FDX1, and HSP70, while immunohistochemistry was conducted to examine the expressions of DLAT, FDX1, LIAS, and HSP70. The results showed that, compared to the model group, the myocardial structure disorder and collagen fiber deposition in the drug treatment groups were significantly improved, the cardiac index level was reduced, serum Cu~(2+), IL-6, IL-1β, IL-18, TNF-α, ADP, and AMP levels were significantly decreased, ATP levels were significantly increased, and the expressions of Col-Ⅰ, Col-Ⅲ, and HSP70 proteins in myocardial tissue were significantly reduced, while the expressions of DLAT, FDX1, and LIAS proteins were significantly elevated. In conclusion, Shenmai Injection effectively alleviates myocardial structure disorder and interstitial collagen fiber deposition in ISO-induced MF rats, promotes copper excretion, and reduces copper death in the ISO-induced rat MF model.

Radiochemotherapy-induced oral mucositis (OM) is a common oral complication in patients with tumors following head and neck radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Erosion and ulcers are the main features of OM that seriously affect the quality of life of patients and even the progress of tumor treatment. To date, differences in clinical prevention and treatment plans for OM have been noted among doctors of various specialties, which has increased the uncertainty of treatment effects. On the basis of current research evidence, this expert consensus outlines risk factors, clinical manifestations, clinical grading, ancillary examinations, diagnostic basis, prevention and treatment strategies and efficacy indicators for OM. In addition to strategies such as basic oral care, anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents, anti-infective agents, pro-healing agents, and photobiotherapy recommended in previous guidelines, we also emphasize the role of traditional Chinese medicine in OM prevention and treatment. This expert consensus aims to provide references and guidance for dental physicians and oncologists in formulating strategies for OM prevention, diagnosis, and treatment, standardizing clinical practice, reducing OM occurrence, promoting healing, and improving the quality of life of patients.

Anti-tumor drug research and development in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is rapidly developing, and the clinical application of high-throughput sequencing technology is also becoming widespread. Accordingly, researchers are focusing on human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) gene as a rare target of NSCLC, and a series of exploratory studies has been performed. Traditional chemotherapy and immunotherapy are unsatisfactory in the HER-2 mutant population, whereas the survival improvement of anti-HER-2 monoclonal antibodies and pan-HER inhibitors is limited. The development of antibody drug conjugate (ADC) ushers in a turning point for HER-2-mutated NSCLC, and new ADC drugs represented by trastuzumab deruxtecan are making a breakthrough. It opens up a new era of precision therapy for advanced HER-2-mutated NSCLC. Additionally, novel HER-2 inhibitors show very encouraging initial efficacy and safety, and clinical trials are ongoing. This review focuses on the latest progress of research on HER-2-mutated NSCLC.

This study investigated the functions and regulatory mechanism of Portulacae Herba and its chemical components on the Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4)/myeloid differentiation primary response 88(MyD88)/nuclear factor kappa B(NF-κB) inflammatory signaling pathway in the colon tissue of mice with dextran sodium sulfate(DSS)-induced ulcerative colitis(UC). A total of 35 mice were randomly divided into groups, including a blank group, a model group, a mesalazine group(0. 5 g·kg~(-1)), and low, medium,and high dose alkaloids from Portulacae Herba groups(9, 18, 36 mg·kg~(-1)), and a combination treatment group, with 5 mice in each group. The blank group was given purified water, while the other groups were continuously given a 3% DSS solution for 7 days to induce the UC model. From day 8 onwards, the treatment group received oral gavage according to the prescribed doses for 14 days. The overall condition, body weight, stool characteristics, and presence of blood in the stool were recorded daily. After the experiment, the disease activity index(DAI) was assessed for each group, and colon length was measured. Histopathological changes in colon tissue were examined using hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining. The levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),and interleukin-1β( IL-1β) in serum were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay( ELISA). The protein and m RNA expression of TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB in colon tissue were measured using Western blot and quantitative real-time PCR(qPCR).Compared to the blank group, the model group showed a significant decrease in body weight, a notable increase in DAI scores, a significant shortening of colon length, and evident histopathological damage. The levels of inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β in the serum were significantly elevated, and the protein and m RNA expression of TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB in colon tissue were significantly up-regulated. In contrast, the alkaloids from Portulacae Herba treatment groups significantly improved symptoms and reduced body weight loss in mice, decreased DAI scores, alleviated colon shortening, lowered serum levels of TNF-α and IL-1β,significantly down-regulated the expression levels of TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB proteins and genes in colon tissue, as well as reduced histopathological damage. Therefore, the study suggests that alkaloids from Portulacae Herba can alleviate intestinal inflammation damage in DSS-induced UC mice, with its mechanism involving the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the correlation of monocyte count(MONO)to high density lipopro-tein-cholesterol(HDL-C)ratio(MHR)and systemic immune-inflammation index(SII)with diabetic retinop-athy(DR).Methods Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)admitted to the hospital from June 2020 to May 2023 were selected as the research objects.According to the presence or absence of DR,the patients were divided into non-retinopathy group(NDR group)and DR Group.The differences in basic information,blood routine,and biochemical indexes between the two groups were analyzed,and the MHR and SII were cal-culated.Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for DR.Spearman correlation a-nalysis was used to analyze the correlation between risk factors and DR.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the value of MHR and SII in predicting DR in T2DM patients.Results A total of 291 T2DM patients were enrolled,including 135 patients in the NDR group and 156 patients in the DR group.Compared with the NDR group,duration of diabetes was significantly prolonged(P<0.05),glycosy-lated hemoglobin(HbA1c),creatinine,fasting plasma glucose(FPG),total cholesterol(TC),platelet count(PLT),MHR and SII were increased(P<0.05),and high density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C)was de-creased(P<0.05)in the DR Group.Spearman correlation analysis showed that DR was positively correlated with duration of diabetes,FPG,HbA1c,PLT,MHR and SII(P<0.05),and negatively correlated with HDL-C(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that gender(OR=0.151,95%CI 0.052-0.432,P<0.001),history of heavy drinking(OR=7.199,95%CI 2.845-18.216,P<0.001),duration of di-abetes(OR=1.570,95%CI 1.354-1.821,P<0.001),HbA1c(OR=1.218,95%CI 1.013-1.464,P=0.036),MHR(OR=1.054,95%CI 1.028-1.080,P<0.001)and SII(OR=1.002,95%CI 1.001-1.003,P=0.002)were independent influencing factors for DR patients.ROC curve analysis showed that the area un-der the curve(AUC)of MHR and SII in predicting the development of T2DM to DR was 0.696 and 0.567,re-spectively.The AUC of MHR and SII combined in predicting DR was 0.702.Conclusion MHR and SII are closely related to the incidence of DR,and both have certain predictive value for DR,and the predictive value of the combined of MHR and SII is higher.

Objective:To analyze the clinical value of delayed solidification of cement at freezing point combined with establishment of cement channels in the treatment of further leakage of cement in percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed for the medical records of 261 patients with osteoporotic vertebral fracture in the thoracolumbar segment who underwent PKP treatment in Beijing Puren Hospital from April 2019 to April 2023. According to the method of dealing with PKP cement leakage, it was divided into freezing point group (using bone cement combined with cement channel reconstruction treatment at freezing point temperature) and temperature gradient group (using temperature gradient method). There were 128 cases in the freezing point group, including 37 males and 91 females, aged 75.57±4.60 years (range, 65-85 years), and fracture locations were 18 cases in T 10, 30 cases in T 11, 44 cases in T 12, 23 cases in L 1 and 13 cases in L 2. There were 133 cases in the temperature gradient group, including 36 males and 97 females, aged 75.66±4.51 years (range, 65-85 years), and fracture locations were 17 cases in T 10, 32 cases in T 11, 51 cases in T 12, 22 cases in L 1, and 11 cases in L 2. The intraoperative blood loss, operation time, intravertebral cement area, cement leakage area, cement leakage area increase, cement bolus time and incidence of injection difficulty, as well as the pain visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI), kyphosis angle, the height of the anterior edge of the injured vertebral body and the difference between it before and after surgery were compared. Results:All patients were followed up for 3 consecutive months. The intraoperative blood loss and initial cement leakage area were 9.48±2.64 ml and 32.56±7.05 mm 2 in the freezing point group and 9.04±2.25 ml and 32.86±7.00 mm 2 in the temperature gradient group, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05) ; The operation time, the area of bone cement in the vertebral body, the final leakage area of bone cement, and the increase of bone cement leakage in the freezing point group were 55.08±4.13 min, 1 175.45±117.11 mm 2, 35.84±8.67 mm 2, and 0.00(0.00, 13.32) mm 2, respectively, and the temperature gradient group were 53.02±3.96 min, 823.70±144.79 mm 2, and 73.38±29.16 mm 2 and 44.39(20.13, 56.61) mm 2, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The height of the anterior edge of the vertebral body was 21.54±2.06 mm and 21.24±2.33 mm immediately after surgery and 3 months after surgery in the freezing point group, which were higher than those in the temperature gradient group 21.10±1.60 mm and 18.92±1.51 mm, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The VAS scores of the freezing point group were 2.29±0.62 and 1.03±0.66 points, ODI were 23.20%±3.97%, 10.43%±4.33%, and the kyphosis angles were 9.09°±2.80° and 9.44°±2.93°, respectively, which were lower than those of the temperature gradient group (4.11±0.79 and 2.79±0.65 points), ODI (35.97%±6.42%, and 23.73%±5.72%), and the kyphosis angles (10.24°±2.33° and 13.22°±2.56°), the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The operating time of bone cement in the freezing point group was 10.89±2.35 min, which was longer than that in the temperature gradient group 5.77±0.52 min, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=24.021, P<0.001). The incidence of cement injection difficulty was 0 in the freezing point group and 27.1% (36/133) in the temperature gradient group. Conclusion:The establishment of bone cement combined with bone cement channel at freezing point temperature can effectively prolong the bolus time of bone cement and reduce the re-leakage of bone cement, which is conducive to increasing the injection volume and distribution area of bone cement in the vertebral body, effectively reducing the amount of bone cement leakage and obtaining better clinical efficacy.
