BACKGROUND:Titanium elastic intramedullary nailing for the treatment of significantly displaced midshaft clavicle fractures has the characteristics of minimally invasive and elastic fixation.The displacement of the fracture is closely related to the later function.However,there are few studies on the three-dimensional displacement analysis of the fracture ends before surgery and after intramedullary fixation such as titanium elastic intramedullary nailing.OBJECTIVE:To explore the three-dimensional displacement of fracture ends after midshaft clavicle fracture and fixation with titanium elastic intramedullary nails,and to analyze the risk factors.METHODS:A total of 91 patients with midshaft clavicle fracture(fracture end shortening ≥15 mm)admitted to Wendeng Orthopedic Hospital of Shandong Province from April 2019 to April 2024 were selected,including 57 males and 34 females,aged(51.73±10.21)years old.All patients received closed reduction and internal fixation with titanium elastic intramedullary nail.CT scans of the affected clavicle were performed before and on the first day after surgery.The CT data were imported into Mimics software for modeling.The length of the clavicle,lateral displacement of the fracture end,and rotation of the distal end of the fracture along the X,Y,and Z axes were measured and recorded before and after surgery.Pearson correlation coefficient was used for correlation analysis of various parameters,and generalized linear regression was used to evaluate risk factors.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Preoperatively,the variable that increased the risk of lateral displacement was the number of comminuted bone fragments,the variable that increased the risk of shortening displacement was male patients,and the variable that increased the risk of Z-axis rotation was the left limb.Shortening displacement was significantly positively correlated with lateral displacement(r=0.715,P＜0.001);shortening displacement was significantly positively correlated with X-axis rotation displacement and Y-axis rotation displacement(r=0.265,P=0.028;r=0.303,P=0.011);lateral displacement was significantly positively correlated with Y-axis rotation and Z-axis rotation(r=0.258,P=0.032;r=0.250,P=0.038);X-axis rotation was significantly positively correlated with Y-axis rotation(r=0.382,P=0.001),and Z-axis rotation was significantly positively correlated with Y-axis rotation(r=0.280,P=0.020).(2)Postoperatively:The number of scapula fractures and comminuted bone fragments were variables that increased the risk of postoperative shortening and lateral displacement:Preoperative X-,Y-,and Z-axis rotation displacements were risk variables that increased postoperative X-,Y-,and Z-axis rotation displacements,respectively.Postoperative lateral displacement was significantly positively correlated with postoperative shortening and displacement(r=0.584,P=0.000),and postoperative lateral displacement was also significantly positively correlated with postoperative Y axis rotation and Z axis rotation(r=0.360,P=0.002;r=0.250,P=0.038).Postoperative Y axis rotation was significantly positively correlated with postoperative Z axis rotation(r=0.248,P=0.040).(3)The results showed that the three-dimensional displacement of the clavicle end before and after surgery was affected by many factors,especially the number of comminuted bone fragments,scapula fractures,gender,and original rotation displacement.At the same time,there were complex correlations between various displacements,especially the correlation between shortening displacement and lateral displacement was the strongest.

BACKGROUND:Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an important treatment for malignant hematological diseases,and delayed postoperative platelet implantation is a common complication that seriously affects the quality of patient survival;however,there are no standard protocols to improve platelet implantation rates and prevent platelet implantation delays. OBJECTIVE:To compare the safety and efficacy of oral Herombopag Olamine versus subcutaneous recombinant human thrombopoietin for promoting platelet implantation in patients with malignant hematological diseases undergoing haploid hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. METHODS:Clinical data of 163 patients with malignant hematological diseases who underwent haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from January 2016 to October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.A total of 72 patients who started to subcutaneously inject recombinant human thrombopoietin at+2 days were categorized into the recombinant human thrombopoietin group;a total of 27 patients who started to orally take Herombopag Olamine at+2 days were categorized into the Herombopag Olamine group;and 64 patients who did not apply Herombopag Olamine or recombinant human thrombopoietin were categorized into the blank control group.The implantation status,incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease of degree II-IV within 100 days,1-year survival rate,1-year recurrence rate,and safety were analyzed in the three groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The average follow-up time was 52(12-87)months.The implantation time of neutrophils in the blank control group,recombinant human thrombopoietin group,and Herombopag Olamine group was(12.95±3.88)days,(14.04±3.71)days,and(13.89±2.74)days,respectively,with no statistically significant difference(P=0.352);the implantation time of platelets was(15.16±6.27)days,(17.67±6.52)days,and(17.00±4.75)days,with no statistically significant difference(P=0.287).(2)The complete platelet implantation rate on day 60 was 64.06%,90.28%,and 92.59%,respectively,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.001).The subgroup analysis showed that the difference between the blank control group and the recombinant human thrombopoietin group was statistically significant(P<0.001),and the difference between the blank control group and the Herombopag Olamine group was statistically significant(P=0.004).The difference was not statistically significant between the recombinant human thrombopoietin group and Herombopag Olamine group(P=0.535).(3)100-day II-IV degree acute graft-versus-host disease incidence in the blank control group,recombinant human thrombopoietin group,and Herombopag Olamine group were 25.00%,30.56%,and 25.93%,respectively,and the difference was not statistically significant(P=0.752).(4)The incidence of cytomegalovirus anemia,cytomegalovirus pneumonia,and hepatic function injury had no statistical difference among the three groups(P>0.05).(5)During the follow-up period,there was no thrombotic event in any of the three groups of patients.(6)The results showed that recombinant human thrombopoietin and Herombopag Olamine could improve the platelet implantation rate of malignant hematological disease patients after haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation,with comparable efficacy and good safety.

BackgroundIn schizophrenia， a subset of patients may progress to treatment-resistant schizophrenia owing to inadequate response to standard antipsychotic therapies， resulting in profound impairments in cognitive and social functioning alongside a cumulative burden of adverse drug reactions during the prolonged treatment. Currently， evidence supporting the use of blonanserin for treatment-resistant schizophrenia remains limited. ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and safety of blonanserin in the treatment of treatment-resistant schizophrenia， so as to provide references for clinical management of this condition. MethodsA total of 43 inpatients fulfilling the International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10） diagnostic criteria for treatment-resistant schizophrenia were consecutively recruited from Taiyuan Psychiatric Hospital from September 2024 to January 2025. Subjects were assigned to either the study group （n=21） or the control group （n=22） using the random number table method. The study group received blonanserin at a daily dosage ranging from 8 to 24 mg， while the control group was administered amisulpride at a daily dosage from 400 to 1 200 mg. At baseline and at the end of the 4^th and 8^th week of treatment， the Positive and Negative Symptom Scale （PANSS） and the Personal and Social Performance scale （PSP） were used to access patients' psychotic symptoms and social functioning， respectively. Cognitive function was evaluated using the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test （HVLT）， the Stroop Color-Word Test （SCWT）， the Trail Making Test （TMT）， the Digit Span Test （DST）， and the Digit Symbol Substitution Test （DSST）. During the treatment process， treatment-related adverse reactions were recorded between two groups. ResultsSignificant time effects were found in PANSS total scores， as well as its positive symptom， negative symptom， and general psychopathological subscale scores （F=186.505， 149.318， 135.671， 416.744， P<0.01）. The group-by-time interaction effect was significant in PANSS total scores and general psychopathological subscale scores （F=3.483， 4.318， P<0.05）. At the end of the 8^th week， the study group exhibited lower general psychopathological subscale scores and the PANSS total scores compared to the control group， with statistically significant differences （t=-2.106， -2.429， P<0.05）. Significant group effects were detected in HVLT scores， Stroop word scores and Stroop color scores （F=6.720， 7.921， 11.383， P<0.05 or 0.01）. The group-by-time interaction effect for Stroop word scores， Stroop interference scores， TMT scores and DSST scores were statistically significant （F=3.571， 4.095， 3.463， 37.000， P<0.05 or 0.01）. At the end of the 8^th week， the DSST score of the study group was higher than that of the control group （t=2.074， P<0.05）. For PSP scores， significant time effect， group effect and group-by-time interaction effect were all observed （F=433.710， 4.463， 10.491， P<0.05 or 0.01）. At the end of the 8^th week， the study group reported higher PSP score compared to the control group， with a statistically significant difference （t=3.451， P<0.05）. No significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions was exhibited between the two groups （P>0.05）. ConclusionBlonanserin demonstrates efficacy comparable to amisulpride in ameliorating positive and negative symptoms in patients with treatment-resistant schizophrenia. Notably， blonanserin exhibits a superior efficacy to amisulpride in improving general psychopathological symptoms， cognitive and social functioning， while both agents show comparable safety profiles. （www.chictr.org.cn number： ChiCTR2400094222）

Objective:To evaluate the long-term effectiveness of lingual mucosal graft ureteroplasty (LMGU) for managing long-segment (≥5 cm) ureteral strictures in a multi-institutional cohort of patients.Methods:A multi-center retrospective case series study was conducted on clinical data from 42 patients undergoing LMGU for long-segment ureteral strictures (≥5 cm) across five institutions between February 2017 and June 2024. The cohort comprised 31 males and 11 females, with an age of (43.4±12.0) years (range: 15 to 64 years) and a body mass index of (24.6±2.6) kg/m2 (range: 16.0 to 30.0 kg/m2). Strictures involved the left ureter in 24 cases and right ureter in 18 cases, demonstrating a stricture length of (6.4±1.5) cm (range: 5.0 to 11.5 cm). Surgical interventions included either onlay ureteroplasty or augmented anastomotic ureteroplasty, selected according to intraoperative findings. Intraoperative parameters, postoperative complications, and follow-up outcomes were analyzed.Results:Laparoscopic surgery was performed in 22 cases and robot-assisted surgery in 20 cases. Among the 42 patients, 22 underwent onlay ureteroplasty while 20 received augmented anastomotic ureteroplasty. The graft length was (5.9±1.8) cm (range: 3.0 to 12.0 cm), operative time (191.5±55.6) minutes (range: 105.0 to 350.0 minutes), and intraoperative estimated blood loss (86.7±73.6) ml (range: 10.0 to 400.0 ml). All procedures were successfully completed without conversion to open surgery. The postoperative hospital stay was (7.6±2.0) days (range: 4.0 to 15.0 days), with double-J stent removal at 6 to 8 weeks postoperatively. During a follow-up of (49.1±25.0) months (range: 12.0 to 99.0 months), no stricture recurrence was observed in any patient.Conclusion:LMGU is a safe, feasible, and effective long-term technique for managing long-segment (≥5 cm) ureteral strictures.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and prognosis of malignant melanoma (MM) in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.Methods:We collected the clinical and follow-up data of 503 MM patients admitted to the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University between 2010 and 2022. The Kaplan-Meier method was employed for survival analysis, with Log rank test used for comparing the survival rates between groups. Cox regression analysis was conducted to identify the influencing factors of patient prognosis.Results:From 2010 to 2022, the number of MM patients admitted to the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University demonstrated an upward trend. Among the 503 MM patients, the primary tumor sites were located in the extremities in 264 cases, the skin in 155 cases, the mucosal in 49 cases, and the ocular uvea in 22 cases, and in 13 cases the primary lesion was unknown. The median follow-up duration was 44 months, with a median overall survival time of 44.0 months. The overall survival rates at 1, 3, and 5 years were 85.2%, 54.3%, and 42.1%, respectively. Univariate analysis revealed that age, Breslow thickness, Clark grading, presence of ulcers, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels, clinical stage at initial treatment, tumor recurrence, distant metastasis (lung, liver, bone, or brain), and postoperative adjuvant therapy were all associated with overall survival in MM patients (all P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that age ( HR=1.022, 95% CI: 1.013-1.032), LDH level ( HR=1.696, 95% CI: 1.223-2.353), clinical stage at initial treatment (TxN0M0 vs stage Ⅱ: HR=0.255, 95% CI: 0.096-0.679; TxN0M0 vs stage Ⅲ: HR=0.293, 95% CI: 0.190-0.452; TxN0M0 vs stage Ⅳ: HR=0.414, 95% CI: 0.284-0.603), bone metastasis ( HR=2.032, 95% CI: 1.252-3.298), and postoperative adjuvant therapy ( HR=0.551, 95% CI: 0.426-0.713) are independent factors influencing the overall survival of MM patients. Stratified analysis by different subtype indicated that age, clinical stage at initial treatment, gene mutations, and postoperative adjuvant therapy usage are independent factors affecting the overall survival of patients with limb MM, while age and clinical stage at initial treatment are independent factors influencing the overall survival of patients with skin and mucosal MM. Conclusions:The number of MM patients in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region may be on the rise. Age, LDH level, clinical stage at initial treatment, presence of bone metastasis, and postoperative adjuvant therapy are independent risk factors for the prognosis of MM patients. Among these, age and clinical stage at initial treatment are common independent risk factors that affect the prognosis of different subtypes of MM patients.

Objective To explore the surgical treatment experience of primary giant gastrointestinal stromal tumors(GIST)(with isolated lesions with a maximum diameter＞10 cm).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical and pathological data of 67 patients with primary giant GIST admitted from January 2018 to December 2024.Among them,35 cases underwent surgical operations after preoperative neoadjuvant therapy(25 effective cases and 10 ineffective cases)(neoadjuvant therapy group).Due to the initial diagnosis assessment expecting radical(R0)resection(13 cases),or preoperative complications(12 cases),or difficulty in obtaining a pathological diagnosis through puncture biopsy(7 cases),32 cases underwent direct surgery without neoadjuvant therapy(direct surgery group).Compare the general information,tumor condition,surgical condition,postoperative recovery,postoperative pathology,postoperative adjuvant therapy,and recurrence between two groups.Results Comparative analysis revealed that there was no statistically significant difference(P＞0.05)between the neoadjuvant therapy group and the direct surgery group in terms of gender,age,primary tumor location,initial maximum diameter,growth type,localized or locally advanced stage,and postoperative follow-up time.The maximum diameters of the tumors before surgery in the neoadjuvant therapy group and the direct surgery group were(12.4±7.1)cm and(18.2±5.0)cm respectively,and the operation times were(125.4±30.6)minutes and(153.0±31.7)minutes respectively.The intraoperative blood loss was(228.3±76.4)ml and(300.3±67.2)ml,respectively.The postoperative hospital stay was(9.1±2.6)days and(11.1±3.2)days,respectively.There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＜0.05).The proportion of laparoscopic surgery in the neoadjuvant therapy group was 17.1％,which was higher than that in the direct surgery group(0),and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of the proportion of tumor rupture,combined organ resection,postoperative complications and postoperative recurrence(P＞0.05).Conclusion Primary giant gastrointestinal stromal tumors can mostly be reduced in size and progression through neoadjuvant therapy,improving the chances of minimally invasive surgery.However,there is also a risk of tumor progression during neoadjuvant therapy leading to increased surgical difficulty or even loss of curative surgical opportunities.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of anterior versus posterior surgical approaches in the treatment of thoracic spinal tuberculous kyphosis.Methods From January 2018 to January 2023,a total of 67 patients with thoracic spinal tuberculous kyphosis were treated.According to the surgical approach,patients were divided into an anterior group(30 cases)and a posterior group(37 cases).The operation time,blood loss,Cobb Angle before the operation,6 months after the operation,and at the last follow-up(12 months after the operation),visual analog scale(VAS)score,and oswestry disability index(ODI)were compared between the two groups.Results The anterior group had significantly longer operative time and greater intraoperative blood loss compared to the posterior group(P＜0.05).At 6 months post operatively,the Cobb angle in the anterior group was significantly lower than that in the posterior group(P＜0.05).Subgroup analysis showed no significant differences between the anterior and posterior groups in preoperative,6 months,and 12 months Cobb angles,correction degree,correction loss for single-segment cases(P＞0.05).However,in multi-segment cases,the anterior group had significantly higher Cobb angles at both preoperative and 6-month postoperative time points compared to the posterior group(P＜0.05),while no significant differences were observed at 12 months,including in correction degree and loss(P＞0.05).The VAS score and ODI of the anterior approach group and the posterior approach group at 6 months after surgery were lower than those before surgery,and the VAS score and ODI at 12 months after surgery were lower than those at 6 months after surgery.The differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).During the follow-up period,no recurrence of tuberculosis,failure of internal fixation or significant loss of correction was observed.Conclusion Both anterior and posterior surgical approaches can effectively treat single-segment tuberculous thoracic kyphosis,with comparable efficacy.The anterior approach is more suitable for patients with localized lesions requiring anterior decompression,whereas the posterior approach offers advantages in deformity correction and spinal stability reconstruction,especially in cases involving multi-segmental lesions.

Abstract In recent years, the prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents has risen rapidly, posing a serious threat to their physical and mental health. To provide scientific, systematic, and standardized weight management guidance for overweight and obese children and adolescents, the study focuses on the core concept of healthy lifestyle intervention, integrates multidisciplinary expert opinions and research findings,and proposes a comprehensive multidisciplinary intervention framework covering scientific exercise intervention, precise nutrition and diet, optimized sleep management, and standardized psychological support. It calls for the establishment of a multi agent collaborative management mechanism led by the government, implemented by families, fostered by schools, initiated by individuals, optimized by communities, reinforced by healthcare, and coordinated by multiple stakeholders. Emphasizing a child and adolescent centered approach, the consensus advocates for comprehensive, multi level, and personalized guidance strategies to promote the internalization and maintenance of a healthy lifestyle. It serves as a reference and provides recommendations for the effective prevention and control of overweight and obesity, and enhancing the health level of children and adolescents.

Objective To investigate the effect of asperuloside(ASP)on the malignant progression and chemotherapy resistance of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)cells by regulating the supersonic hedgehog(SHH)/glioma-associated oncogene homolog 1(GLI1)signaling pathway.Methods The expression of SHH and GLI1 protein in human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line(SMMC-7721)/adriamycin(ADM)and SMMC-7721 cell line were detected by Western blot(WB).The HCC drug-resistant cell line SMMC-7721/ADM were divided into Control group,ADM group,L-ASP group(1 mmol/L ASP),M-ASP group(2 mmol/L ASP),H-ASP group(3 mmol/L ASP),ASP+PM group(1 μmol/L SHH/GLI1 signaling pathway activator PM).Ex-cept for Control group,5 μg/mL ADM was added to each group.The effect of ASP on the proliferation of SMMC-7721/ADM cells was detected by cell counting kit-8(CCK8)assay and plate cloning assay.The effect of ASP on the invasion and migration of SMMC-7721/ADM cells were detected by Transwell assay.The effect of ASP on the apoptosis of SMMC-7721/ADM cells was detected by flow cytometry.The expression of SHH,GLI1,proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA),matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)and B cell lymphoma-2 associated X protein(Bax)in SMMC-7721/ADM cells were detected by WB.Animal experiments verified the effect of ASP on the growth of HCC xenografts and the expression of SHH/GLI1 signaling pathway proteins.Results The expression of SHH and GLI1 in SMMC-7721/ADM cells were higher than those in SMMC-7721 cells(P＜0.05).L-ASP group,M-ASP group and H-ASP group decreased the proliferation,migration and in-vasion of SMMC-7721/ADM cells in a dose-dependent manner,decreased the expression of SHH,GLI1,PCNA and MMP-9,and promoted cell apoptosis and Bax expression(P＜0.05).SHH/GLI1 signaling pathway acti-vator PM could reverse the inhibitory effect of H-ASP treatment on malignant progression and chemotherapy resistance of SMMC-7721/ADM cells(P＜0.05).ASP could inhibit the growth of HCC transplanted tumor and the expression of SHH and GLI1(P＜0.05).Conclusion ASP can inhibit the malignant progression of HCC cells and enhance the sensitivity of chemotherapy,which may be achieved by inhibiting the SHH/GLI1 signaling pathway.
