Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Objective Aimed at investigating the effect and molecular mechanism of artemisinin on hemo-dynamics and vascular remodeling in monocrotaline(MCT)-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension(PAH)rats.Methods 30 male SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups(n=10):control group,MCT-induced PAH group(MCT group,60 mg/kg)and artemisinin intervention group(50 mg/kg).At 28 days after modeling,the right ventricular systolic pressure(RVSP),mean pulmonary artery pressure(mPAP),heart rate and right ventricular hypertrophy index(RVHI)were measured to evaluate the development of PAH.HE staining and α-SMA immuno-histochemistry were used to observe the morphology and assess muscularization of pulmonary arterioles,and the percentage of medial wall thickness(WT%),the percentage of vascular wall area(WA%)and the proportion of muscular vessels were calculated to evaluate the degree of pulmonary vascular remodeling.The mRNA and protein levels of HIF-1α and LDHA were detected by real-time PCR and Western blot,respectively.Pyruvate and lactate concentration in lung tissue was measured using pyruvate and lactateassay kit.Results Compared with the control group,the RVSP,mPAP,heart rate and RVHI were significantly increased in MCT-induced PAH rats(all P<0.05).Histological analysis showed that the increasedmedial wall thickness of small pulmonary arteries and vascular muscularization were observed in MCT-treated rats compared with control rats.WT%,WA%and muscularization degrees of pulmonary arterioles were higher in MCT-treated rats than those in the control group(all P<0.05),suggesting successful construction of PAH model.Compared with the MCT group,the RVSP,mPAP,heart rate and RVHI decreased in the rats treated with artemisinin(all P<0.05),accompanied with lower WT%and WA%(P<0.05),and muscularization of pulmonary arterioles was improved(P<0.05).Further study showed the mRNA and protein levels ofHIF-1α and LDHA in lung tissue of MCT-induced PAH rats were higher than those in the control group,the content of lactate and pyruvate and the ratio of lactate to pyruvate were higher than that in the control group(all P<0.05).However,the mRNA and protein levels of HIF-1α and LDHA in lung tissue of rats treated with artemisinin were lower than those in the MCT group,the content of lactate and pyruvate and the ratio of lactate to pyruvate were lower than that in the MCT group(all P<0.05).Conclusion Artemisinin improves hemodynamic and pulmonary vascular remodeling in PAH rats through inhibiting HIF-1α/LDHA signaling pathway-mediated glycolysis.

Objective To investigate the value of multimodal model integrating digital mammography(MG)and MRI radiomics features for preoperative prediction of lymphovascular invasion(LVI)status in breast cancer.Methods The clinical and imaging data from 336 patients with pathologically confirmed invasive breast cancer were retrospectively analyzed and randomly divided into a training group(235 cases)and a test group(101 cases)according to the ratio of 7∶3.Feature dimensionality reduction was carried out by Pearson correlation analysis followed by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)regression.Radiomics models were constructed based on MG craniocaudal(CC),dynamic contrast enhancement(DCE),T2 WI,and integrated MRI sequences;a multimodal model was further developed by incorporating clinical high-risk factors.The predictive efficiency of each model was evaluated by plotting receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results The ROC curve analysis showed that the multimodal model performed the best predictive efficiency,with area under the curve(AUC)of 0.989 and 0.861,accuracy of 0.949 and 0.782,sensitivity of 0.923 and 0.828,and specificity of 0.962 and 0.764 in the training group and test group respectively.Conclusion The multimodal model,integrating MG and MRI radiomics features,show optimal performance and can be served as a preoperative prediction of LVI status in breast cancer.

Objective To investigate the possible association between cross-domain associative memory(AM)impairment and hippocampal subfield volumes in patients with schizophrenia(SCZ).Methods We enrolled 28 SCZ patients from Shanghai Mental Health Center,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine,and 28 healthy controls(HCs)between 2019 and 2021.Based on an innovative AM paradigm and automated segmentation,3D-T1 weighted data of the objects were processed with PhiPipe and FreeSurfer.Differences in subfield volums between the two groups were analyzed using ANCOVA,while their relationship with AM scores was assessed using Pearson correlation.Results SCZ patients exhibited significantly poorer AM performance across three conditions compared with HCs.Marginally significant reductions were observed in the total volume of bilateral hippocampus,encompassing both the hippocampal head and body.Significant volume reductions were identified in the bilateral presubiculum and parasubiculum.The volumes of bilateral presubiculum head(r=0.273,P=0.042),parasubiculum(r=0.397,P=0.002),and CA1 head(r=0.382,P=0.004)exhibited positive correlations with cross-domain AM performance.Conclusion The bilateral presubiculum and parasubiculum,as hippocampal subregions significantly associated with cross-modal AM deficits in SCZ,may play a crucial role in the pathology of AM.

Objective The CRISPR/Cas9 system was utilized to generate an Apoe knockout mice model to support further investigations of the role of Apoe in lipid metabolism and atherosclerosis.Methods Two single guide RNAs designed for Apoe in C57BL/6J mice were co-injected with Cas9 mRNA into fertilized eggs,followed by transplantation into ICR recipient mice to obtain F0 generation mice.KO mice were identified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR)screening of tail DNA.Apoe mRNA expression in various tissues was assessed by quantitative real-time PCR and lipid indexes were measured in serum samples.Lipid accumulation in the inner lining of aortic vessels was detected by oil red O staining.Results PCR and sequencing confirmed the successful construction of Apoe KO mice(C57BL/6-Apoeem1/Nifdc).Apoe mRNA levels were significantly reduced in the liver,brain,spleen,kidney,and lung tissues of Apoe KO homozygous mice(Apoe-/-),as shown by reverse transcription quantitative real-time PCR.Serum total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were increased in Apoe-/-mice,and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were decreased in male Apoe-/-mice.Extensive lipid plaques were observed in the inner lining of the arteries in Apoe-/-mice compared with WT mice,under normal chow consumption conditions.Conclusions This study successfully established an Apoe KO mice model exhibiting a typical abnormal lipid metabolism phenotype with arterial lipid accumulation,even without a high-fat diet intervention.This work provides background data for the Apoe KO mice resource and a new model for the study of abnormal lipid metabolism.

Objective:To explore the outcomes and problems of the Beijing Nursing Association Emergency Specialist Nurse Training Course, so as to provide reference for improving the training of emergency specialist nurses.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 75 trainees from the 2023 Beijing Nursing Association Emergency Specialist Nurse Training Course as survey subjects. Beijing Nursing Association Emergency Specialist Nurse Training Scoring Criteria was used to score trainees from four aspects of theoretical knowledge, skill operation, case analysis, and review defense, and to summarize and analyze the existing problems.Results:A total of 75 questionnaires were distributed, and 75 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 100.0%. The theoretical knowledge score was (68.4±10.7), with a minimum of 38.0 and a maximum of 91.0, and the pass rate (number of passing trainees divided by the total number of trainees) was 81.3%. The score for the review defense was (78.8±5.7), with a minimum of 65.0 and a maximum of 94.0, and a pass rate of 100.0%. The skill operation score was (93.5±3.7), with a minimum of 85.0 and a maximum of 99.0, and a pass rate of 100.0%. The score for the case analysis was (90.2±5.6), with a minimum score of 80.0 and a maximum score of 100.0, and a pass rate of 100.0%. The main reasons for losing points in the theoretical knowledge were mechanical ventilation and cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The main reasons for losing points in the review defense were topic selection and paper writing. The main reasons for losing points in skill operation were preparation before operation and key points after operation. The main reasons for losing points in the case analysis were the consultation ideas and treatment measures.Conclusions:The trainees of the emergency specialist nurse training course currently have a relatively good overall professional practical skills, but there are significant differences in theoretical knowledge, weak scientific research capabilities, and room for improvement in triage decision-making. It is suggested to give full play to the advantages of teachers and set up a variety of Internet courses for trainees to learn on their own to meet the personalized needs of trainees and improve teaching homogeneity.
