OBJECTIVE To systematically review medication-related risk factors for falls in older adults， to provide references for ensuring medication safety among older adults. METHODS A systematic search was conducted in PubMed， Embase， Web of Science， and CNKI for relevant literature published from database inception to November 1， 2025. Relevant studies on medication-related falls in older adults， both domestic and international， were included. Drug factors influencing falls in older adults were summarized and analyzed. RESULTS A total of 22 studies were included. Four major classes of fall-risk-increasing drugs were identified： psychotropic medications [12 studies， odds ratio （OR） range 1.500-5.790]， cardiovascular system drugs （5 studies， OR range 1.236-4.784）， analgesics （3 studies， OR range 1.500-4.490）， and hypoglycemic agents （3 studies， OR range 2.070-2.751）. Additionally， anticholinergic burden （1 study， OR was 2.610） and polypharmacy （7 studies， OR range 2.902-25.897 for the use of ≥4 medications） were identified as significant risk factors for falls. CONCLUSIONS Falls in older adults are significantly associated with psychotropic medications， cardiovascular system drugs， analgesics， and hypoglycemic agents， among which psychotropic medications pose the highest risk. Anticholinergic burden and polypharmacy are also important risk factors. In clinical practice， interventions should be implemented through deprescribing and risk monitoring to effectively reduce the risk of falls in older adults.

Objective:To analyze the incidence and epidemiological characteristics of traumatic spinal cord injury in China in 2018.Methods:Multi-stage stratified cluster sampling was used to randomly select hospitals capable of treating patients with spinal cord injury from 3 regions，9 provinces and 27 cities in China to retrospectively investigate eligible patients with traumatic spinal cord injury admitted in 2018. National and regional incidence rates were calculated. The data of cause of injury，injury level，severity of injury，segment and type of fracture，complications，death and other data were collected by medical record questionnaire，and analyzed according to geographical region，age and gender.Results:Medical records of 4，134 patients were included in this study，with a male-to-female ratio of 2.99∶1. The incidence of traumatic spinal cord injury in China in 2018 was 50.484 / 1 million （95% CI 50.122-50.846）. The highest incidence in the Eastern region was 53.791 / 1 million （95% CI 53.217-54.365）. In the whole country，the main causes of injury were high falls （29.58%），as well as in the Western region （40.68%），while the main causes of injury in the Eastern and Central regions were traffic injuries （31.22%，30.10%）. The main injury level was cervical spinal cord in the whole country （64.49%），and the proportion of cervical spinal cord injury in the Central region was the highest （74.68%），and the proportion of lumbosacral spinal cord injury in the Western region was the highest （32.30%）. The highest proportion of degree of injury was incomplete quadriplegia （55.20%），and the distribution pattern was the same in each region. A total of 65.87% of the patients were complicated with fracture or dislocation，77.95% in the Western region and only 54.77% in the Central region. In the whole country，the head was the main combined injury （37.87%），as well as in the Eastern and Central regions，while the proportion of chest combined injury in the Western region was the highest （38.57%）. A total of 32.90% of the patients were complicated with respiratory complications. There were 23 patients （0.56%） died in hospital，of which 17（73.91%） died of respiratory dysfunction. Conclusions:The Eastern region of China has a high incidence of traumatic spinal cord injury. Other epidemiological features include high fall as the main cause of injury cervical spinal cord injury as the main injury level，incomplete quadriplegia as the main degree of injury，head as the main combined injury，and respiratory complications as the main complication.

Objective To investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of proanthocyanidins and its mechanisms.Methods Inflammation models such as dimethylbenzene-indueed ear swelling and carrageenan-induced hind paw edema in mice and rats were prepared.The contents of PGE2 in exudate from edema paws of rats were measured by ultraviolet spectrophotography and the protein expression of COX-2 in edema paws of rats by Western-blot and immunohistoehemistry(IHC)assay.Results Pro-anthocyanidins remarkably inhibited the ear edema induced by dimethylbenzene in mice at the dose of10 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg;paw edema of rats induced with carrageenan was significantly inhibited byproanthocyanidins 5,20 mg/kg ip from 2 to 5 h;proanthoeyanidins 5,20 mg/kg ip reduced the contents of PGE2 in exudate from edema paws of rats induced by carrageenan;proanthocyanidins 5,20 mg/kg ip inhibited the protein expression of COX-2.Conclusion Proanthocyanidins has an anti-inflammatory effect in vivo which may be related to inhibition of protein expression of COX-2 and downregutation of PGE2 biosynthesis.

Objective: In order to detect the effect of bcl-xs on camptothecin-induced apoptosis in human nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE-2Z cells in vitro.Methods:bcl-xs gene-bearing mammalian expression vector(pcDNA3xs)was transfected into CNE-2Z cells using LipofectAmine.The expression of bcl-xs was determined with western blot.Cells which were transfected with native pcDNA3 vector were used as control.Apoptotic cells were detected with flow cytometry after exposure to camptothecin for 24h.Results:Cell clone(CNE-2Zxs)with stable expression of bcl-xs was obtained as confirmed with western blot.Results from flow cytometry analysis showed a significant increase of apoptotic cells in CNE-2Zxs as compared with CNE-2Zneo after treatment with the same dose of camptothecin.Conclusion:Exogenous bcl-xs expression sensitized nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE-2Z cells to camptothecin-induced apoptosis.

Objective To quantify the mRNA of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) in the rat peritoneal macrophages cultured in vitro by capillary electrophoresis (CE). Methods The rat peritoneal macrophages were isolated and cultured for indicated time. The mRNA of 5-LO was detected by RT-PCR, and the products of RT-PCR were quantified by CE. Results The DNA fragments in the 100 bp DNA marker and the products of the RT-PCR were separated successfully by CE with the sieving buffer containing 1.8% hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC). It proved that there were no significant changes on the expressions of 5-LO mRNA when the cells were cultured for 72 h quantified by CE. The mRNA of 5-LO significantly decreased by almost 80% by CE with the cells cultured for 120 h in vitro.Conclusions The products of RT-PCR could be separated and quantified by CE directly.The 5-LO mRNA could express normally in the rat peritoneal macrophages for 72 h in vitro.
