ObjectiveTo establish three standardized rehabilitation unit models covering acute, critical and comprehensive recovery stages for traumatic brain injury (TBI) that fit the whole-course characteristics, clarify their multidisciplinary collaborative framework, standardized procedures, and information management system, and verify the clinical effectiveness of this staged rehabilitation unit on long-term functional prognosis and in-hospital complications of TBI patients. MethodsThis study was conducted at two stages: model construction and efficacy verification. At the first stage, TBI rehabilitation units for acute, critical and recovery stages were established in the Department of Neurosurgery, Intensive Care Unit and Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, respectively, with unified multidisciplinary team configuration, standardized assessment and treatment protocols, collaborative workflows, and a dedicated information management system. At the second stage, 324 TBI patients admitted to the newly built rehabilitation units from July, 2023 to July, 2025 were enrolled as the observation group, and 167 TBI patients receiving traditional management from January, 2018 to December, 2022 were retrospectively selected as the control group. The primary outcomes were 1-year post-injury Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) and Disability Rating Scale (DRS) scores. Secondary outcomes included the incidence of in-hospital complications and the mean indwelling time of tracheal intubation, gastric tube and urinary catheter. ResultsThe 1-year GOS score was significantly higher (t = -7.836, P < 0.001), and the DRS score was significantly lower (t = -6.742, P < 0.001) in the observation group than in the control group. The overall incidence of complications was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group (χ² = 18.762, P < 0.001). The incidences of pulmonary infection, urinary tract infection, pressure ulcer, lower extremity venous thrombosis and joint contracture deformity were all significantly reduced (χ² > 4.328, P < 0.05). The indwelling time of tracheal intubation, gastric tube and urinary catheter was significantly shorter in the observation group than in the control group (t > 10.276, P < 0.001). ConclusionThe acute-critical-comprehensive three-stage standardized TBI rehabilitation unit could significantly improve the long-term functional outcomes of TBI patients, reduce the incidence of complications, and shorten the indwelling time of invasive tubes through multidisciplinary collaboration, whole-course standardized management and information-based quality control. This model conforms to the pathological and functional laws of TBI, realizes seamless whole-course connection from acute treatment to recovery rehabilitation, and has good clinical feasibility and promotion value. It can provide evidence-based evidence and practical reference for the homogenized and standardized development of TBI rehabilitation in China.

Objective To explore the imaging manifestations of Rosai-Dorfman disease(RDD)in children.Methods A total of 12 children with RDD confirmed by pathology were retrospectively enrolled,including 8 cases underwent non-contrast CT(NCCT)+contrast enhanced CT(CECT),2 cases underwent NCCT+CECT+non-contrast MR(NCMR)+contrast enhanced MR(CEMR),1 case underwent NCCT+NCMR and CEMR,while 1 case underwent NCCT and X-ray examinations.Imaging manifestations of RDD in children were observed.Results Among 12 cases,intranodal type RDD was found in 7 case,extranodal type RDD in 3 cases,and mixed type(with both lymph nodes and extranodal sites affected)RDD were noticed in 2 cases.In 7 cases of intranodal type RDD,NCCT and CECT showed multiple lymph node enlargements in both sides of the neck,with uniform isodensity on NCCT and mild-moderate progressive enhancement in 5 cases,while with low-density necrotic area and ring-shaped enhancement in 2 cases.Among 3 cases of extranodal RDD,the lesion in 1 case involved nasal cavity and posterior group of ethmoid sinuses on CT and MRI,which developed circular soft tissue mass centered on nasal septum with moderate heterogeneous enhancement,also compressed the adjacent bone with destruction.In another case of extranodal RDD,CT showed that the lesion involved left ilium and bilateral parietal bones,with bone destruction accompanied by obvious periosteal reaction and soft tissue mass,which was mildly enhanced.In the rest 1 case of extranodal RDD,CT and X-ray film showed that the lesion involved the upper segment of right femur and left parietal bone,with osteolytic destruction accompanied by layered periosteal reaction.The lesions in both 2 cases of mixed type RDD involved brain(1 case involved left parieto-occipital lobe,1 case involved bilateral temporal lobes,left frontal lobe and bilateral occipital lobes),presented as isodensity on CT and equal or slightly low signal intensity on T 1WI,equal-high mixed signal intensity on T2WI,some shaped like brain gyral with mild edema of surrounding tissue,and nodular or mass-like significant enhancement.RDD involvements of bilateral lung,mediastinum and hilar lymph nodes were also observed in the above 2 cases,chest CT showed multiple nodular or small patchy uniform high-density shadows in bilateral lungs,as well as enlarged mediastinum and hilar lymph nodes.Conclusion Imaging manifestations of pediatric RDD had certain specificity,being helpful to diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the geographical distribution patterns and influencing factors of suitable habitats for the desert medicinal plant Cynomorium songaricum Rupr under current climatic conditions;To provide a basis for its resource conservation and sustainable utilization.Methods The MaxEnt model was used to analyze potential suitable habitats for Cynomorium songaricum Rupr.Geographical Detector model was used to identify key environmental factors affecting habitat suitability.Surface cover data were overlaid to assess the distribution of sandy and Gobi regions within suitable habitats,enabling a quantitative evaluation of actual potential suitable areas.Results Model predictions indicated a total suitable habitat area of approximately 2.98×106 km2,representing 30.99%of China's mainland area.Highly suitable habitats are concentrated in desert and Gobi regions of Gansu,Xinjiang,Inner Mongolia,Qinghai and Ningxia.Among climatic factors,precipitation of the coldest quarter(bio19),solar radiation in August(srad8),and mean temperature of the coldest quarter(bio11)significantly influence Cynomorium songaricum Rupr distribution.The interaction between temperature and solar radiation intensity exhibited the highest explanatory power for habitat distribution patterns(q=0.82).Overlay analysis with surface cover data estimated the actual potential suitable area at approximately 9.70×105 km2,with sandy regions comprising 5.73×105 km2 and Gobi regions 3.98×105 km2.Conclusion By integrating multi-source data and modeling approaches,this study delineates the potential suitable habitats for Cynomorium songaricum Rupr across China and evaluates the spatial distribution characteristics and influencing factors of suitable habitats in Cynomorium songaricum Rupr.These findings offer a foundation for conserving wild Cynomorium songaricum Rupr resources,optimizing ecological planting regions,and promoting sustainable industry development.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore the association between body mass index (BMI) and mortality based on the 10-year population-based multicenter prospective study. METHODS: A general population-based multicenter prospective study was conducted at four sites in rural China between 2013 and 2023. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic spline analyses were used to assess the association between BMI and mortality. Stratified analyses were performed based on the individual characteristics of the participants. RESULTS: Overall, 19,107 participants with a sum of 163,095 person-years were included and 1,910 participants died. The underweight (< 18.5 kg/m ²) presented an increase in all-cause mortality (adjusted hazards ratio [ aHR] = 2.00, 95% confidence interval [ CI]: 1.66-2.41), while overweight (≥ 24.0 to < 28.0 kg/m ²) and obesity (≥ 28.0 kg/m ²) presented a decrease with an aHR of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.52-0.73) and 0.51 (95% CI: 0.37-0.70), respectively. Overweight ( aHR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.67-0.86) and mild obesity ( aHR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.59-0.87) had a positive impact on mortality in people older than 60 years. All-cause mortality decreased rapidly until reaching a BMI of 25.7 kg/m ² ( aHR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.92-0.98) and increased slightly above that value, indicating a U-shaped association. The beneficial impact of being overweight on mortality was robust in most subgroups and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION This study provides additional evidence that overweight and mild obesity may be inversely related to the risk of death in individuals older than 60 years. Therefore, it is essential to consider age differences when formulating health and weight management strategies.

Objective:To investigate the synergistic effect and its mechanism of ginsenoside-Rg5 in combination with imatinib in inhibiting proliferation of chronic myeloid leukemia K562 cells.Methods:K562 cells were treated with ginsenoside-Rg5 and imatinib.Cell survival was detected by CCK-8 assay,and IC50 were calculated separately for each drug.Based on the value of IC50 of ginsenoside-Rg5 and imatinib,an appropriate concentration gradient was selected for the combination.The synergistic effect of the two drug was analyzed using the online software synergy finder.The effects of single or combination therapy on apoptosis rate and the cell cycle distribution of K562 cells were analyzed by flow cytometry.Western blot was used to detect the expression of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway related proteins and apoptosis related proteins in K562 cells after single or combination therapy.Results:Ginsenoside-Rg5 and imatinib were able to inhibit the proliferative activity of K562 cells in a dose-dependent manner(r=-0.991,r=-0.942).The synergy score ZIP＞10 was measured by Synergy Finder online software,indicating that ginsenoside-Rg5 and imatinib act synergistically on K562 cells.The apoptotic rates of K562 cells after single treatments with ginsenoside-Rg5 and imatinib were 11.96％and 8.13％,respectively,while the rate increased to 21.35％with the combination of two drugs,the apoptosis rate in the combination group was higher than that in the single-drug group(P＜0.05).The proportion of K562 cells in the G0/G1 phase was significantly increased with the combined treatment of two drugs(P＜0.05).The protein expression levels of p-PI3K,p-AKT,p-mTOR in K562 cells treated with the combination were significantly decreased,with noticeable downregulation of BCL-2 and upregulation of BAX,leading to a decreased Bcl-2/BAX ratio,while no significant changes were observed in the non-phosphorylated forms of PI3K,AKT,and mTOR proteins.Conclusion:The combination of ginsenoside-Rg5 and imatinib can inhibit the proliferation of CML cells and induce apoptosis,and the mechanism may act through PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathways.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.
