Acute urinary retention(AUR)occurs frequently among astronauts on orbit.The current treatment is complex and easy to damage the urethra,which seriously affects the life and work of astronauts.In contrast,acupuncture,a traditional Chinese remedy,has shown promising results in managing urinary retention.However,the specific acupoints that could potentially prevent AUR remain uncertain due to the unique physiological conditions experienced by individuals in space compared to those on Earth.To address this gap,our research delved into the mechanisms of AUR and acupuncture within both traditional Chinese medicine and modern medical practices.We conducted a thorough literature review from Pubmed,Web of Science,CNKI,Wanfang database,VIP database and Chinese Medical Code database.A hierarchical evidence-scoring approach was utilized to analyze the included literatures,thus devised acupuncture protocols for the treatment of AUR.The outcomes of our study aim to establish a foundation for the application of acupuncture in managing AUR.

Objective:To construct the intracranial venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) models under plateau hypoxia by simulating plateau hypoxic condition, and further clarify the role of plateau hypoxa in CVST.Methods:Forty-eight 8-week-old male SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group, plateau sham-operated group, CVST group, and plateau CVST group ( n=12). CVST models in the CVST group and plateau CVST group were established by ferric chloride wet dressing, and rats in the plateau CVST group were kept in a low-pressure oxygen chamber for 2 d immediately after modeling to simulate plateau hypoxic condition at an altitude of 5,000 m (barometric pressure of 54.047 kPa, oxygen concentration of 10%-11%, and temperature of 18-23 °C). Only the bone flap and dura mater were separated in rats of the sham-operated group, without low-pressure oxygen condition or filter paper dressing. Only the bone flap and dura mater were separated in rats of the plateau sham-operated group, with plateau hypoxic condition at an altitude of 5,000 m for 2 d and without filter paper dressing. Intracranial venous sinus blood flow was detected by Doppler flowmetry before and 48 h after modeling. At 6, 24, and 48 h after modeling, 4 rats in each group were sacrificed; blood vessels at the thrombus of superior sagittal sinus (blood vessels at the superior sagittal sinus in the sham-operated group and plateau sham-operated group) were cut out and weighed; meanwhile, water contents of the brain tissues were calculated. HE staining was employed in the brain, heart, liver, lung, and kidney tissues and veins, and toluidine blue staining was peformed in the brain tissues only at 48 h after modeling. Results:(1) Doppler flowmetry indicated that intracranial venous sinus blood flow was normal in the 4 groups before modeling; intracranial venous sinus blood flow signals were normal in the sham-operated group and plateau sham-operated group and obviously weakened in the CVST group and plateau CVST group 48 h after modeling. (2) No thrombus was formed in the sham-operated group 48 h after modeling. At 6, 24 and 48 h after modeling, the thrombus in the CVST group ([15.44±1.90] mg, [12.63±1.26] mg, and [7.85±0.68] mg) and plateau CVST group ([20.38±1.67] mg, [24.93±2.37] mg, and [20.90±1.30] mg) weighted significantly heavier than those in the plateau sham-operated group ([2.55±0.38] mg, [2.19±0.30] mg, [1.75±0.31] mg), and that in the plateau CVST group weighted significantly heavier than that in the CVST group ( P<0.05); the thrombus weight in both plateau sham-operated group and CVST group decreased sequentially at 6, 24 and 48 h after modeling, with significant differences ( P<0.05); whereas, the thrombus weight in the plateau CVST group at 24 h after modeling increased compared with that at 6 h after modeling, and that at 48 h after modeling decreased compared with that at 24 h after modeling, with significant differences ( P<0.05). (3) At 6 h after modeling, the brain water contents in the sham-operated group, plateau sham-operated group, CVST group and plateau CVST group were (77.56±0.52)%, (77.57±0.92)%, (78.91±0.53)%, and (78.90±0.63)%, respectively, with statistical differences ( P<0.05); the CVST group and plateau CVST group had increased water content compared with the sham-operated group and plateau sham-operated group without significant differences ( P>0.05). At 24 and 48 h after modeling, the brain water content among the 4 groups was not statistically different ( P>0.05). (4) HE staining and toluidine blue staining indicated limited infarction, neuronal edema, and necrotic apoptosis in the brain tissues of plateau CVST group at 24 h after modeling. HE staining showed no obvious pathological changes in the myocardium, liver, lung, or kidney tissues in the 4 groups. Conclusion:CVST models can be successfully established by simulating plateau hypoxic condition through ferric chloride wet dressing and feeding in low-pressure oxygen chamber.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

Astronauts are affected by the space environment,and there are health problems in many systems of the body,which seriously affect the on-orbit work efficiency and the health recovery after landing.Although measures have been taken,there are still deficiencies.Acupuncture can regulate the body in a multi-target,multi-level and multi-system way to protect the health of astronauts,which is an effective measure to protect the health problems of astronauts.But there is no acupoint group database for aerospace medical problems,which limits the application of acupuncture in space.The aim of this paper is to solve the possible aerospace medical problems of astronauts by acupuncture.Firstly,the acupuncture indications in aerospace medicine are determined through literature research,expert consultation and expert consensus,and then the evidence collection,evidence evaluation and evidence aggregation are carried out through the"stratified evidence evaluation method"for ancient literature,modern literature and expert experience.Finally,acupoint prescriptions were recommended based on the comprehensive score of acupoints,and acupuncture prescriptions for all acupuncture indications in aerospace medicine were integrated to form an acupoint group database,so as to contribute more Chinese wisdom and solutions to solve aerospace medicine problems.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between body composition and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).Methods:CKD patients who were hospitalized in the Department of Nephrology of Chongqing General Hospital from January 2017 to December 2019 and had complete clinical biochemical data were divided into CKD patients with CVD and CKD patients without CVD according to their medical history and corresponding auxiliary examinations. Clinical data were collected and anthropometric measurements were conducted. Skeletal muscle index (SMI), appendage lean mass/height 2, total body fat (TBF), visceral adipose tissue (VAT), bone mineral capacity, bone mineral density and et al, were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. T test, U test and Chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between body composition and CVD. Results:A total of 604 CKD patients were included in this study, including 560 patients (92.7%) with CKD stage 3, 44 patients (7.3%) with CKD stage 4, and 180 CKD patients with CVD (29.8%), 424 CKD patients without CVD (70.2%). Compared with CKD patients without CVD, the proportion of men, the proportion of hypertension, the proportion of diabetes, age, duration of CKD, systolic blood pressure, blood uric acid, waist to hip ratio and waist circumference were higher (all P<0.05), while low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were lower in CKD patients with CVD (all P<0.05). In terms of body composition, SMI ( t=-11.964, P<0.001) and body mass index ( t=-4.462, P<0.001) in CKD patients with CVD were significantly lower than those in CKD patients without CVD, but VAT ( t=3.089, P=0.002) and TBF ( t=5.177, P<0.001) in CKD patients with CVD were significantly higher. After adjusting for confounders such as age, CKD duration, hypertension history, diabetes history, LDL-C, body mass index, eGFR, TBF, etc. by multivariate logistic regression analysis, the risk of CKD patients suffering from CVD increased significantly with the decrease of SMI [with SMI high tertile (36.37%-50.80%) as reference, SMI middle tertile (28.23%-36.31%): OR=1.49, 95% CI 1.24-1.71, P=0.003; SMI low tertile (15.28%-28.19%): OR=2.17, 95% CI 1.79-2.62, P<0.001], and VAT was not found to be associated with the risk of CVD in CKD patients ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Reduction of SMI is independently associated with CVD in CKD patients.

Lung transplantation is the only effective treatment of end-stage lung diseases. Nevertheless, shortage of donor lungs has become increasingly prominent worldwide. A large quantity of patients died while waiting for lung transplantation. Urgent lung transplantation is a prioritized allocation strategy for donor lung transplantation according to the urgency of diseases, aiming to shorten the waiting time for donor lungs and reduce the fatality of patients on the waiting list for lung transplantation. However, no consensus has been reached worldwide on the definition, criteria and application of the terminology of urgent lung transplantation. In addition, the survival and net benefits of lung transplant recipients based on this allocation system are still controversial. On the basis of previous clinical research on urgent lung transplantation, the definition criteria, risk factors, survival outcomes, limitations and optimization measures were explicitly elucidated in this article, aiming to provide theoretical reference for comprehensive evaluation of the feasibility of urgent lung transplantation and further optimizing the allocation system of donor lungs.

Lung transplantation has become the most effective treatment of end-stage lung diseases. Along with persistent optimization of lung transplantation technique and perioperative management, the short-term clinical efficacy after lung transplantation has been significantly improved, whereas the long-term clinical prognosis remains unoptimistic. Besides chronic lung allograft dysfunction, postoperative malignant tumors also threaten the long-term survival of the recipients. Common malignant tumors following lung transplantation include nonmelanoma skin cancer, posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease and lung cancer. After solid organ transplantation, a large majority of the recipients require lifelong immunosuppressive therapy. The intensity of immunosuppressive therapy for the lung transplant recipients is generally higher than other organ transplant recipients. Immunosuppression is the main factor which leads to the impairment of anti-tumor immune monitoring function and promotes the incidence and development of malignant tumors. In this article, the risk factors, prevention and treatment of the most common malignant tumors after lung transplantation were reviewed, aiming to provide reference for comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of malignant tumors following lung transplantation.

Objective:To explore the application effect of flipped classroom teaching method in musculoskeletal ultrasound teaching for standardized residency training of ultrasound department.Methods:In the study, 30 residents in ultrasound department of The Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were collected and divided into control group ( n=15) and experimental group ( n=15). The control group was taught by traditional teaching method and the flipped teaching method was adopted in the experimental group. All residents were trained for 3 months.

The satisfaction degree of teaching methods in the experiment group was higher than that in the control group, with significant differences ( P<0.001). Conclusion:Flipped classroom teaching method can improve the teaching outcomes and quality to ensure smooth completion of the teaching objectives.

Objective:To study the early effect of arthroscopy in the treatment of obsolete traumatic subscapularis tears.Methods:A retrospective case series study was used to analyze the clinical data of 28 patients with obsolete traumatic subscapularis tears admitted to Second People 's Hospital of Changzhou City from July 2017 to July 2020，including 16 males and 12 females，aged 47-72 years［（60.5±6.3）years］. According to Lafosse classification，the injury size was upper one third tear in 9 patients，upper half tear in 18 and complete tear in 1. According to Patte classification of the degree of retraction，4 patients were with no retraction，7 with retraction to the level of the lesser tuberosity，14 with retraction to the level of the humeral head，and 3 with retraction to the level of the glenoid. According to Goutallier classification，the level of fatty infiltration was at grade 0-1 in 17 patients，at grade 2 in 10 and at grade 3-4 in 1. All patients were repaired by arthroscopic surgery. The wound healing was observed at 2 weeks postoperatively. The visual analogue score（VAS），University of California at Los Angeles（UCLA）shoulder rating score，shoulder active forward elevation（AFE），active external rotation（AER），active internal rotation（AIR）were assessed before operation and at 3 months and 6 months postoperatively. Six months after operation，reexamination of the front and side view of the shoulder and MRI of the shoulder were performed to assess the recovery of the subscapular tendon. Results:All patients were followed up for 6-12 months［（8.7±1.3）months］. All wounds healed 2 weeks after operation，with no infection occurred. The VAS was（3.5±0.7）points and（2.6±0.5）points at 3 months and 6 months postoperatively，lower than（6.3±1.2）points before operation（ P<0.01）. The UCLA score was（20.4±2.5）points and（25.6±6.2）points at 3 months and 6 months postoperatively，higher than（9.5±1.7）points before operation（ P<0.01）. The preoperative range of motion of the affected shoulder in AFE，AER and AIR was（80.2±12.6）°，（52.5±7.6）°，（3.7±1.2）°，respectively. Three months after operation，the range of motion was（113.2±7.5）°，（60.1±6.3）°，（6.8±1.6）°，respectively. Six months after operation，the range of motion was（122.3±15.2）°，（65.6±10.5）°，（7.8±2.3）°，respectively. The range of motion of the affected shoulder at 3 months and 6 months postoperativley was better than that before operation（ P<0.01）. Six months after operation，MRI showed good recovery in 27 patients，while a small re-tear in 1 patient（Goutallier classification grade 3）. Conclusion:For patients with obsolete traumatic subscapularis tears，arthroscopic repair can significantly relieve the pain，and recover range of motion and function of the joint.
