ObjectiveTo construct an automatic measurement model for palmar tilt and radial inclination suitable for traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） clinical scenarios， and to validate its accuracy and efficiency in TCM manipulative reduction settings. MethodsData on anteroposterior （AP） and lateral X-rays of distal radius fractures were collected from patients admitted to 18 TCM/ integrated TCM and western medicine hospitals in Jiangsu province between September 1st， 2023， and September 1st， 2024， via the Jiangsu Diagnosis and Treatment Big Data Platform for TCM Dominant Diseases. A medical image segmentation framework based on multi-scale feature fusion and edge-awareness was employed， combined with anatomical knowledge specific to TCM orthopedics， to optimize the feature extraction strategy of an artificial intelligence （AI） model. This framework enabled automatic segmentation of fracture regions and measurement of distal radius palmar tilt and radial inclination. The accuracy of the AI model in measuring radial inclination and volar tilt was validated， and the measurement time and average time gain rate of the AI model were compared to those of manual measurement. ResultsA total of 15,444 AP and lateral X-ray images of distal radius fractures were collected， and were divided into a training set （11,144 images， 5066 AP and 6078 lateral）， a validation set （3700 images， 1840 AP and 1860 lateral）， and an independent test set （600 images， 300 AP and 300 lateral） after preprocessing. In the measurement of 300 AP X-rays in the independent test set for radial inclination， when the degree error between AI measurement and manual measurement was ＜3° and ＜5°， AI measurement accuracy was 83% and 93%， respectively. In 300 lateral X-rays in the test set for palmar tilt， when AI measurements had an error of ＜3° and ＜5° compared to manual measurements， corresponding accuracy rate was 78% and 90%， respectively. For 50 X-ray images， AI measurement time was （1.37±0.05） min for radial inclination while manual measurement time was （22.57±2.52） min （P＜0.001）； in terms of palmar tilt， the AI measurement time was （1.33±0.14） min， shorter than （23.70±2.80） min for manual measurement time （P＜0.001）. Average time gain rates for manual and AI measurements were 93.93% and 94.39% respectively. ConclusionAn automatic measurement model for palmar tilt and radial inclination in distal radius fractures has been established， enabling more accurate and efficient assessment as well as providing a tool to support the quantitative evaluation of the efficacy of TCM manipulative reduction and large-sample clinical research.

Objective To analyze the occurrence status of low blood pressure (BP) in patients with refractory heart failure (RHF) and its relationship with comorbidities. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 360 patients with RHF who were hospitalized in department of cardiology of Affiliated Nantong Hospital of Shanghai University from May 2021 to May 2025. These patients were divided into the RHF with BP group and the RHF group based on their blood pressure at admission. The general data and comorbidities were compared between both groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for coexisting BP. Results The heart rate (HR), N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), blood urea nitrogen, high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T, right atrial diameter, proportion of cardiac function grade IV, use rate of diuretics and prevalence rate of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in the RHF with BP group were higher while the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), albumin, left ventricular ejection fraction, use rate of lipid-lowering drugs and prevalence rate of coronary heart disease were lower compared to the RHF group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that increased HR (OR=1.685, 95%CI: 1.106-2.569), increased NT-proBNP (OR=1.772, 95%CI: 1.138-2.759), decreased HDL-C (OR=0.605, 95%CI: 0.400-0.917) and DCM (OR=1.956, 95%CI: 1.176-3.255) were independent risk factors affecting BP in RHF patients (P<0.05). Conclusion The incidence rate of low blood pressure in elderly RHF patients is about 19.17%. Increased heart rate, increased NT-proBNP, decreased HDL-C and dilated cardiomyopathy are closely linked to the occurrence of low blood pressure, and they can be used as clinically related factors to identify patients at high risk of low blood pressure.

Objective:To investigate the role of platelet-derived zyxin in promoting tumor migration by platelets.Methods:The gene expression profile of platelets was analyzed from cancer patients by using the GEO database.Isolated platelets from wild-type(WT)and Zyx-/-mice were co-cultured with B16F10 cells labeled with green fluorescence to investigate the influence of zyxin deficiency on tumor cell migration,invasion,and wound healing.Optical microscopy was employed to evaluate the impact of zyxin deficiency on epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)in B16F10 cells induced by platelets.Employing specific markers to label platelets,fluorescence confocal microscopy was utilized to investigate the impact of platelet-derived zyxin on the binding between tumor cells and platelets.And an aggregometer was employed to observe the influence of zyxin deficiency on tumor cell-induced platelet aggregation.Results:Compared to platelets from healthy volunteers,zyxin was upregulated in platelets from cancer patients.Zyx-/-mouse platelets exhibited a significant reduction in tumor cell invasion and migration,impaired wound healing,and delayed tumor cell EMT compared to WT mouse platelets.Additionally,zyxin deficiency attenuated the interaction between platelets and tumor cells,and diminished the capacity for tumor cell-induced platelet aggregation.Conclusion:Platelet-derived zyxin deficiency diminishes platelet-tumor cell interactions and weakens the ability of tumor cell-induced platelet aggregation,ultimately suppressing tumor cell migration.

Objective To explore the efficacy of arthroscopic reduction combined with percutaneous screw fixation in the treatment of Sanders types Ⅱ and Ⅲ calcaneal fractures.Methods Forty-eight patients with Sanders types Ⅱ and Ⅲcalcaneal fractures were divided into the arthroscopic reduction combined with percutaneous screw fixation(arthroscopy)group(n=23)and the tarsal sinus approach open reduction combined with screw internal fixation(tarsal sinus approach)group(n=25)according to different surgical methods and plans.The operative time,incision length,postoperative complications and secondary removal of internal fixation were compared between the two groups.Changes in B?hler's angle and Gissane's angle were evaluated and compared between the two groups at 3 months,6 months after operation and at the last follow-up.Additionally,the American Orthopaedic Foot&Ankle Society(AOFAS)ankle-hindfoot score and the visual analog scale(VAS)for pain were used to assess outcomes at the last follow-up.Results Compared with the tarsal sinus approach group,the incision length was reduced,the operation time was prolonged and the incidence of complications was decreased in the arthroscopic group(P＜0.05).At 3 months,6 months after the operation and the last follow-up,there were no significant differences in the B?hler Angle,Gissanes Angle,AOFAS and VAS scores between the arthroscopic group and the tarsal sinus approach group(P＞0.05).Conclusion Both groups of regimens can enable patients to achieve good postoperative therapeutic efficacy.However,under arthroscopic assistance,surgical incisions inherently possess minimally invasive advantages,while the incidence of postoperative complications is lower compared to the sinus tarsi approach.

Aim To analyze the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events(MACCE)in patients with different types of acute coronary syndrome(ACS)undergoing coronary artery rotational atherec-tomy(RA)within two years.Methods 268 patients with ACS who underwent RA in the Department of Cardiology,Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital,Affiliated Hospital of Medical School of Nanjing University,between November 2011 and December 2022 were retrospectively included.According to whether ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)occurred,they were divided into 25 cases in the ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)group and 243 cases in the non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome(NSTE-ACS)group.The NSTE-ACS group included unstable angina pectoris(UAP)and non-STEMI(NSTEMI).The basic information and intraoperative data related to percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in the two groups were collected,and the occurrence of MACCE(including car-diovascular death,non fatal myocardial infarction,worsening heart failure,ischemic stroke and target vessel revasculariza-tion)within two years after RA was followed up and analyzed.Results Compared with the NSTE-ACS group,the STEMI group had a higher incidence of MACCE and cardiovascular mortality during the two-year follow-up period(10.3％and 0.4％vs.28.0％and 8.0％;P＜0.05).There was no statistical difference between the incidence of target vessel revascularization,nonfatal infarction,ischemic stroke and worsening heart failure between the two groups(P＞0.05).According to subgroup analysis based on enrollment periods,the results showed that over time(2011-2017 compared to 2018-2022),the incidence of MACCE in all patients within two years after RA showed a decreasing trend(18.97％vs.6.58％).Combined with previous studies,gender,hypertension,diabetes,renal insufficiency,smoking and left ven-tricular ejection fraction(LVEF)were included in the Cox regression model.It was found that the use of intravascular ul-trasound(IVUS)was an independent factor to reduce the incidence of MACCE in ACS patients within two years after RA(HR=0.333,95％CI:0.153～0.723,P＜0.01).Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that among ACS patients undergoing RA,the cumulative incidence of MACCE events was higher in the STEMI group than that in the NSTE-ACS group(P＜0.05).Conclusion STEMI patients have a higher incidence of MACCE and cardiovascular mortality within two years after RA compared to NSTE-ACS patients,and the use of IVUS during RA surgery can reduce the incidence of MACCE in ACS patients after RA.

Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using the dilution method recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. Statistical analyses were conducted using WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software.Results:A total of 4 385 Gram-positive bacterial isolates were obtained from 60 participating center. The top five pathogens were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 544，35.2%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=1 441，32.9%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=574，13.1%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=385，8.8%），and α-hemolytic Streptococci（ n=187，4.3%）. The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）was 26.2%（405/1 544）and 69.8%（1 006/1 441），respectively. Notably，all Staphylococci remained susceptible to glycopeptide or daptomycin. Staphylococcus aureus demonstrated excellent susceptibility（>97.0%）to cephalobiol，rifampicin，trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline，tigecycline，and eravacycline. No Enterococcus exhibiting resistance to linezolid were detected. Glycopeptide resistance was uncommon but more frequent in Enterococcus faecium（resistance to vancomycin and teicoplanin：both 1.7%）compared to Enterococcus faecalis（both 0.3%）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS exhibited significant regional variations across the country（ χ2=17.674 and 148.650，respectively，both P<0.001）. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci were detected in central China. Institutional comparison demonstrated higher prevalence of MRSA（ χ2=14.111， P<0.001）and MRCNS（ χ2=4.828， P=0.028）in provincial hospitals than that in municipal hospitals. Socioeconomic analysis identified elevated detection rates of both MRSA（ χ2=18.986， P<0.001）and MRCNS（ χ2=4.477， P=0.034）in less developed regions（per capita GDP

WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，11 492 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 60 hospitals，of which 10 098（87.9%）were Enterobacterales and 1 394（12.1%）were non-fermentative bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（50.0%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（26.1%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（5.1%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（5.0%）and Enterobacter cloacae complex（4.1%）. The ESBL-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirablilis were 46.8%（2 685/5 741），18.3%（549/2 999）and 44.0%（77/175），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（76/5 741）and 15.0%（450/2 999）；32.9%（25/76）and 78.0%（351/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. 94.7%（72/76）and 90.2%（406/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to aztreonam/avibactam combination. Furthermore，57.9%（44/76）and 79.1%（356/450）were sensitive to imipenem/relebactam combination. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 64.6%（370/573），while more than 80.0% of CRAB complex was sensitive to tigecycline，eravacycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 17.0%（99/581）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of important Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions in China，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA and CRAB complex（ χ2=10.6，28.6，10.8 and 19.3， P<0.05）. The prevalence of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli， CREC，CRAB complex and CRKP were higher in provincial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=12.5，9.8，12.7 and 57.8，all P<0.01）. Conclusions:Gram-negative bacteria are the main pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of Klebsiella pneumoniae increases continuously with time. CRKP infection shows a slow upward trend，CREC infecton maintains a low prevalence level，and CRAB complex infection continues to exhibit a high prevalence rate. The composition and resistance patterns of pathogens causing bloodstream infections vary to some extent across different regions and levels of hospitals in China.

Objective:To investigate immunotherapy effects and mechanism of BCG and recombinant BCG(rBCG)with c-di-AMP as adjuvant on melanoma in mice model.Methods:Melanoma mice model was established by B16F10 cell subcutaneous injec-tion in groin,and treated with 1×106 CFU of BCG and rBCG by adjacent injection of subcutaneous tumor for 3 times,respectively.Survival of melanotic mice,tumor growth and metastasis were observed.Tumor tissues of mice were isolated to prepare cell suspen-sion,and proportion of immune cells were detected by flow cytometry.Transcriptional levels of immune-related genes in tumor tissues were detected by qRT-PCR.Results:Both BCG and rBCG immunotherapy could significantly inhibit growth in melanoma mice and prolong survival time of mice.rBCG showed better inhibition on metastasis than BCG.Both strains significantly reduced proportion of M2-type macrophages and myeloid-derived suppressor cell associated with tumor growth and metastasis.Both two strains promoted infiltration of lymphocytes in tumor tissues,and rBCG significantly increased proportion of B cells in tumor.BCG immunotherapy upregulated transcription levels of metastasis-related cytokines,while rBCG therapy had no effects on transcriptions of these genes.Conclusion:Both BCG and rBCG have immunotherapeutic effects on melanotic mice,and rBCG with c-di-AMP as adjuvant shows better inhibition on tumor metastasis than BCG,which mechanism was related to regulation of immune response in tumor tissues.

Objective To investigate the role and mechanism of AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK)in regulating mitochondrial function and cardiomyocyte injury in sepsis.Methods Forty Balb/c mice were randomly divided into four groups:Sham group(n=10),Sham+5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide(AICAR)group(n=10),CLP group(n=10),and CLP+AICAR group(n=10).A sepsis mouse model was established through cecal ligation and puncture(CLP).Echocardiography and histological analysis were used to assess sepsis-induced cardiac injury.Neonatal rat cardiomyocytes(NRCMs)were incubated with lipopolysaccharide(LPS)(10 μg/mL)for 24 h to induce an in vitro sepsis model,and treated with AICAR.Mitochondrial function and dynamics were assessed by using Western blotting,enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),and immunofluorescence assays.Results Compared with the Sham group,AMPK expression in the myocardial tissue of CLP mice was significantly reduced(P<0.05).Compared with the CLP group,AMPK expression in the CLP+AICAR group was significantly increased(P<0.05).Survival analysis showed that CLP led to a high mortality rate(～60％ ),while AICAR treatment significantly improved the survival rate of CLP mice(P<0.05).Compared with the Sham group,cardiac output(CO),stroke volume(SV),and left ventricular end-diastolic volume(LVEDV)were significantly decreased in the CLP group(P<0.05),while left ventricular posterior wall systolic(LVPWs)and left ventricular posterior wall thickness(LVPWd)were significantly increased(P<0.05).AICAR treatment alleviated the cardiac dysfunction induced by CLP.Compared with the CLP group,mitochondrial size and the number of mitochondrial cristae in the myocardial tissue of CLP+AICAR group mice were significantly increased(P<0.05),while DHE fluorescence intensity and the number of TUNEL-positive cells were significantly reduced(P<0.05).Compared with the LPS group,ATP production,mitochondrial respiration rate,and complex Ⅰ,Ⅱ,and Ⅲ activities in NRCMs of the LPS+AICAR group were significantly increased(P<0.05),while mitochondrial and cytoplasmic ROS levels were significantly reduced(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,mitochondrial size in NRCMs of the LPS group was significantly reduced(P<0.05),while Bax and Caspase-3 expression,as well as mitochondrial fission index,were significantly increased(P<0.05),and these changes were mitigated by AICAR(P<0.05).Conclusion AMPK plays a crucial role in maintaining cardiac function and mitigating septic myocardial injury by regulating mitochondrial structure and function,energy metabolism,oxidative stress,and apoptosis.
