Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis(AIS)is a complex three-dimensional deformity involving coronal,sagittal,and axial planes,with a prevalence that should not be overlooked.With advancements in technology and in-depth research,an increasing number of hospitals and physicians are exploring standardized diagnostic and treatment approaches for AIS.Comprehensive and in-depth understanding is required for AIS,including its etiology,screening and diagnosis,classification,assessment and examination,treatment options,exploration of current focus,and evaluation of quality of life.Such understanding ensures that the diagnostic and treatment are scientific,standardized,and timely.Based on the principles of evidence-based medicine,a consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of AIS is reached after multiple discussions among spinal surgery experts,aiming to provide reference and guidance for clinical practice.

Objective To track and evaluate the implementation and application of the occupational health standard Radiation shielding requirements for radiotherapy room—Part 4: Radiotherapy room of ²⁵²Cf neutron afterloading (GBZ/T 201.4-2015) by radiation health technical service agencies, medical institutions, health supervision agencies, and radiotherapy facility design units, and to provide a scientific basis for the further revision and implementation of this standard. Methods Following the Guideline for health standards tracking evaluation (WS/T 536-2017) and the project implementation plan, relevant practitioners were randomly selected for a questionnaire survey. The survey primarily focused on their awareness, standard training, application, and revision suggestions of GBZ/T 201.4-2015. The results were summarized and analyzed. Results A total of 168 evaluation questionnaires were collected from relevant practitioners in 28 provinces. Only 31.6% of the respondents reported being “well familiar” or “ familiar” with the standard, 27.4% of the respondents believed that the standard was widely used, and 45.2% of the respondents believed that the standard could meet the needs of their work. Only 14.9% of the respondents had received relevant training on the standard, more than half of the respondents had not applied the standard within the past 10 years, and 45.2% of the respondents believed that the standard "needs to be revised". Conclusion Due to the small number of californium-252 neutron afterloading radiotherapy devices in operation on the market, the overall awareness of the standard is low, suggesting that relevant authorities need to strengthen training and publicity of the standard, and that certain sections of the standard need to be revised or merged.

Objective To investigate the role of Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4)in the regulation of homocys-teine(Hcy)-induced ferroptosis in macrophages.Methods Mouse macrophage cells RAW264.7 were cultured and divided into control group,Hcy intervention group(Hcy group),and Hcy plus ferroptosis inhibitor group(Hcy+Fer-1 group).After transfection with interference fragments,macrophages were treated with Hcy,and then divided into control group,Hcy intervention group(Hcy group),TLR4 interference negative control plus Hcy intervention group(si-NC+Hcy group),and TLR4 interference plus Hcy intervention group(si-TLR4+Hcy group).Macrophages were transfected with overexpression lentivirus and treated with Hcy,then were divided into control group,Hcy intervention group(Hcy group),a TLR4 overexpression negative control plus Hcy intervention group(OE-NC+Hcy group),and a TLR4 overexpression plus Hcy intervention group(OE-TLR4+Hcy group).After 48 hours of intervention,real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR and western blot were used to detect the expression levels of TLR4 in macrophages treated with Hcy;western blot was used to detect the expression levels of ferroptosis-related proteins ACSL4,GPX4,and FTH1 in macrophages,and ferrous ion assay kit to detect the concentration of Fe2+in macrophages;reactive oxygen species(ROS)assay kit and laser confocal microscopy were used to detect the content of intracellular reactive oxygen species.Results Compared with those in the control group,the expression level of the pro-ferroptosis protein ACSL4 was increased in the Hcy group(P<0.05),while the expression levels of anti-ferroptosis proteins GPX4 and FTH1 were decreased(P<0.05);the concentration of Fe2+was increased(P<0.05),and the content of ROS was increased.Meanwhile,the protein and mRNA expres-sion levels of TLR4 were both increased in the Hcy group(P<0.05).After macrophages were transfected with TLR4 interference fragments,compared with those in the si-NC+Hcy group,the expression levels of GPX4 and FTH1 were increased(P<0.05);the expression level of ACSL4 was decreased(P<0.05);the concentration of Fe2+was decreased(P<0.05),and the content of ROS was reduced in the si-TLR4+Hcy group.After macro-phages were transfected with TLR4 overexpression lentivirus,compared with those in the OE-NC+Hcy group,the expression levels of GPX4 and FTH1 were decreased(P<0.05),and the expression level of ACSL4 was increased(P<0.05)in the OE-TLR4+Hcy group.Conclusion Hcy induces the occurrence of ferroptosis in macrophages,and Toll-like receptor 4 has a positive feedback regulatory effect on ferroptosis in macrophages.

Proteus mirabilis is a significant foodborne pathogen that frequently causes diseases in humans and animals.Understanding the cytokine profile alterations following gastrointestinal in-fection with P.mirabilis is crucial for developing effective treatment strategies.This study em-ployed an intragastric infection model in mice to observe clinical symptoms and pathological chan-ges.Blood samples were collected at various time points post-infection,and the concentrations of 21 cytokines in the serum of both infected and control mice were quantitatively analyzed using the Bio-Plex suspension array system.The results of the infection experiment indicated that gastroin-testinal infection with P.mirabilis in mice led to splenic hemorrhage and significant splenomegaly.A notable difference in spleen index between the infected and control groups was observed at 24 hours post-infection(P=0.001 688),with the greatest difference occurring at 96 hours post-infec-tion(P=0.000 074).Cytokine analysis revealed significant elevations in IL-2,IL-17A,KC,Eotax-in,MCP-1,RANTES,MIP-1α,MIP-1β,IFN-γ,G-CSF,and IL-10 levels in the infected group.A-mong these,the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-17A and G-CSF exhibited the most substantial changes,positively correlating with the splenomegaly,and peaking at 96 hours post-infection,with concentrations of(104.74±3.91)and(5 184.08±280.22)ng/L,respectively,which were 26.79 and 36.25 times higher than those in the control group.These findings indicate that IL-17A and G-CSF play significant roles in the pro-inflammatory response following gastrointestinal infection with P.mirabilis.

Objective:To investigate the expression of KCTD8 gene in breast ductal carcinoma and its correlation with clinical factors and prognosis.Methods:Immunohistochemistry technology(IHC)were employed to detect protein expression levels of KCTD8 in 27 pairs of breast ductal carci-noma and its paired adjacent tissues.Analyzing the correlation between changes in KCTD8 expres-sion of protein and clinical factors using statistical techniques.RNA expression and methylation data of breast cancer(including intraductal cancer)were analysed from TCGA database.Result:The pro-tein expression of KCTD8 gene in 27 pairs of breast ductal carcinoma tissues showed a decreasing trend compared to adjacent tissues(P＜0.05),and the decreased expression level of protein was cor-related with the tumor size of patients(P＜0.05).The analysis results of the TCGA database indicate that the expression and hypemethylation of KCTD 8 gene in breast cancer(including intraductal can-cer)tissues affected the prognosis of patients.Conclusion:The reduced protein expression level of KCTD8 gene in breast ductal carcinoma may be involved in the development and affect the prog-nosis of patients.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of brexpiprazole in treating acute schizophrenia.Methods Patients with schizophrenia were randomly divided into treatment group and control group.The treatment group was given brexpiprozole 2-4 mg·d-1 orally and the control group was given aripiprazole 10-20 mg·d-1orally,both were treated for 6 weeks.Clinical efficacy of the two groups,the response rate at endpoint,the changes from baseline to endpoint of Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale(PANSS),Clinical Global Impression-Improvement(CGI-S),Personal and Social Performance scale(PSP),PANSS Positive syndrome subscale,PANSS negative syndrome subscale were compared.The incidence of treatment-related adverse events in two groups were compared.Results There were 184 patients in treatment group and 186 patients in control group.After treatment,the response rates of treatment group and control group were 79.50％(140 cases/184 cases)and 82.40％(150 cases/186 cases),the scores of CGI-I of treatment group and control group were(2.00±1.20)and(1.90±1.01),with no significant difference(all P＞0.05).From baseline to Week 6,the mean change of PANSS total score wese(-30.70±16.96)points in treatment group and(-32.20±17.00)points in control group,with no significant difference(P＞0.05).The changes of CGI-S scores in treatment group and control group were(-2.00±1.27)and(-1.90±1.22)points,PSP scores were(18.80±14.77)and(19.20±14.55)points,PANSS positive syndrome scores were(-10.30±5.93)and(-10.80±5.81)points,PANSS negative syndrome scores were(-6.80±5.98)and(-7.30±5.15)points,with no significant difference(P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of treatment-related adverse events between the two group(69.00％vs.64.50％,P＞0.05).Conclusion The non-inferiority of Brexpiprazole to aripiprazole was established,with comparable efficacy and acceptability.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of serum levels of C-C motif chemokine ligand 21 (CCL21) and C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 3 (CXCR3) for stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Methods:Patients with AIS admitted to No.215 Hospital of Shaanxi Nuclear Industry from July 2020 to December 2023 were prospectively included. Serum CCL21 and CXCR3 test results and general clinical data at admission were collected using the hospital electronic medical record system. The independent influencing factors of SAP were identified through multivariate logistic regression analysis, and the predictive value of serum CCL21 and CXCR3 levels for SAP were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results:A total of 150 patients with AIS were enrolled, including 91 males (60.67%), aged 61.48±7.92 years. Among them, 41 patients (27.33%) developed SAP during hospitalization. There were significant differences in serum CCL21 and CXCR3 levels, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score, Glasgow Coma Scale score, invasive mechanical ventilation, length of hospital stay, and the proportion of patients with hypertension and diabetes between the SAP group and the non-SAP group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum CCL21 (odds ratio [ OR] 1.022, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.006-1.039; P=0.006) and CXCR3 ( OR 1.036, 95% CI 1.018-1.054; P<0.001) levels were the independent risk factors for SAP. ROC curve analysis showed that serum CCL21 and CXCR3 levels had good predictive power separately for SAP. The areas under the curve was 0.730 (95% CI 0.634-0.825) and 0.807 (95% CI 0.721-0.892), respectively. The combined prediction of the two showed an area under the curve of 0.881 (95% CI 0.819-0.943). Conclusion:The patients with AIS generally have higher levels of serum CCL21 and CXCR3. The levels of serum CCL21 and CXCR3 are closely associated with SAP, and both of them have a good predictive effect on SAP alone or in combination.
