Cervical spinal cord injury without fracture-dislocation (CSCIWFD) is referred to as a special type of cervical spinal cord injury characterized by traumatic spinal cord dysfunction and no significant bony structural abnormalities on imagines. Duo to the high risk of missed diagnosis during the initial consultation, CSCIWFD may lead to progressive neurological deterioration or even complete paralysis, severely impacting patients′ prognosis. Currently, there are no established consensuses over the diagnosis and treatment of CSCIWFD, such as the lack of evidence-based standards for indications of non-surgical treatment and risk of secondary neurological injury, as well as debates over the optimal timing for surgical intervention and indications for different surgical approaches. To address these issues, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the relevant fields to formulate Diagnosis and treatment guideline for acute cervical spinal cord injury without fracture- dislocation in adults ( version 2025) . Based on evidence-based medicine and the principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability, the guidelines proposed 11 recommendations covering terminology, diagnosis, evaluation treatment, and rehabilitation, etc., aiming to standardize the management of CSCIWFD.

Vertebral refracture following percutaneous vertebral augmentation (PVA) is commonly seen in elderly patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures (OTLCF). It can lead to recurrent pain, loss of vertebral height, progression of kyphosis, and even neurological dysfunction, significantly impairing patients′ quality of life. Current diagnosis and treatment face multiple challenges, including high misdiagnosis rate, difficulty in choosing between surgical and non-surgical treatment options, lack of standardized surgical protocols, interference from intralesional bone cement during procedures, inadequate stability of internal fixation in osteoporotic bone, and suboptimal compliance of anti-osteoporotic therapy. Establishing a standardized diagnostic and therapeutic framework is urgently needed. To standardize the management process and improve outcomes for vertebral refractures after PVA in elderly OTLCF patients, Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the field to develop Guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of vertebral refracture after percutaneous vertebral augmentation in elderly patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025), based on current literature and clinical experience, and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability. A total of 11 recommendations were proposed, encompassing diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of vertebral refracture after PVA in elderly patients with OTLCF, aiming to provide a foundation for a standardized management.

Chlorobenzene contaminants (CBs) pose a threat to the eco-environment, and functional strains hold considerable potential for the remediation of CB-contaminated sites. To deeply explore the application potential of functional bacteria in the in-situ bioremediation of CBs, this study focused on the biodegradation characteristics and degradation kinetics of CB and 1, 2-dichlorobenzene (1, 2-DCB) in soil by the isolated strain Serratia marcescens TF-1. Additionally, an in-situ remediation trial was conducted with this strain at a chemical industrial site. Batch serum bottle experiments showed that the degradation rate of CB at the concentrations ranging from 20 to 200 mg/L by TF-1 was 0.22-0.66 mol/(g_cell·h), following the Haldane model, with the optimal concentration at 23.12 mg/L. The results from simulated soil degradation experiments indicated that the combined use of TF-1 and sodium succinate (SS) significantly enhanced the degradation of CBs, with the maximum degradation rate of CB reaching 0.104 d^-1 and a half-life of 6.66 d. For 1, 2-DCB, the maximum degradation rate constant was 0.068 7 d^-1, with a half-life of 10.087 d. The in-situ remediation results at the chemically contaminated site demonstrated that the introduction of bacterial inoculant and SS significantly improved the removal of CBs, achieving the removal rates of 84.2%-100% after 10 d. CB, 1, 4-dichlorobenzene (1, 4-DCB), and benzo[a]pyrene were completely removed. Microbial diversity analysis revealed that the in-situ remediation facilitated the colonization of TF-1 and the enrichment of indigenous nitrogen-fixing Azoarcus, which may have played a key role in the degradation process. This study provides a theoretical basis and practical experience for the in situ bioremediation of CBs-contaminated sites.

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) can lead to lower back pain and may be even accompanied by scoliosis, neurological dysfunction and other complications, which will affect the daily activities and life quality of patients. Vertebral augmentation is an effective treatment method for OVCF, but it cannot correct unbalance of bone metabolism or improve the osteoporotic status, causing complications like lower back pain, limited spinal activities and vertebral refracture. The post-operative systematic and standardized rehabilitation treatments can improve curative effect and therapeutic efficacy of anti-osteoporosis, reduce risk of vertebral refracture, increase patient compliance and improve quality of life. Since there still lack relevant clinical treatment guidelines for postoperative rehabilitation treatments following vertebral augmentation for OVCF, the current treatments are varied with uneven therapeutic effect. In order to standardize the postoperative rehabilitation treatment, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized relevant experts to refer to relevant literature and develop the "Guideline for postoperative rehabilitation treatment following vertebral augmentation for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (2022 version)" based on the clinical guidelines published by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) as well as on the principles of scientificity, practicality and advancement. The guideline provided evidence-based recommendations on 10 important issues related to postoperative rehabilitation treatments of OVCF.

Objective:To compare the difference between breast bracket combined with polyurethane foam and single polyurethane foam in the accuracy of immobilization, providing a better immobilization for breast cancer radiotherapy.Methods:Fifty breast cancer patients who received radiotherapy in Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from March 2021 to July 2021 were selected. Among them, 25 patients were immobilized with polyurethane foam (foam group), and the other 25 patients were immobilized with polyurethane foam combined with breast bracket (combination group). All patients were scanned by CBCT once a week to obtain setup errors in the SI, LR and AP directions for t-test. The formula M PTV=2.5 Σ+0.7 σ was used to calculate the margin of the planning target volume(M PTV). Results:The setup errors in the foam group were SI (2.0±3.26) mm, LR (0.88±2.76) mm, AP (1.22±3.55) mm, Rtn -0.24°±0.85°, Pitch 0.16°±1.11°, Roll -0.32°±1.05°, and the M PTV were 6.75 mm, 8.46 mm and 8.73 mm, respectively. The setup errors in the combination group were SI (1.0±3.01) mm, LR (0.62±2.74) mm, AP (1.82±3.21) mm, Rtn 0.64°±0.59°, Pitch 0.71°±1.22°, Roll 0.29°±0.73°, and the M PTV were 6.35 mm, 7.47 mm, and 7.61 mm, respectively. After comparing the setup errors in the three-dimensional directions between two groups, the t value of LR, SI, AP and Rtn, Pitch, Roll was -4.304, -2.681, 1.384, and -9.457, -3.683, -5.323, respectively. And the differences in the LR, SI, Rtn, Pitch and Roll directions were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The immobilization effect of polyurethane foam combined with breast bracket is better and the M PTV is also smaller than those of polyurethane foam alone. Therefore, it is recommended to use polyurethane foam combined with breast bracket for immobilization in breast cancer radiotherapy.

Objective:To explore the clinical significance of multi-sample next-generation sequencing (NGS) in detecting gene mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), so as to provide a basis for individualized targeted treatment.Methods:The data of 51 patients with NSCLC in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University Medical College from June 2016 to February 2019 was retrospectively analyzed. The patients' age, gender, smoking status, pathological type, tumor staging, pleural invasion status and meningeal invasion status were collected, and the tissues, cerebrospinal fluid, pleural effusion and plasma samples were detected by NGS. The correlations between the driver gene mutations [epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), and ROS proto-oncogene 1, receptor tyrosine kinase (ROS1)] and the clinicopathological features of patients were analyzed by χ 2 test or Fisher exact probability method. Cohen Kappa coefficient analysis was used to compare the consistency of NGS detection results in different samples. Results:Among the 51 patients, 3 different types of specimens were examined in 7 patients. Of which, the driver gene mutations were all positive in 3 cerebrospinal fluid samples and double gene mutations were found in 2 hydrothorax samples. Driver gene mutations were more common in female [90.48% (19/21) vs. 50.00% (15/30), χ 2 = 9.107, P = 0.003], non-smokers [80.00% (24/30) vs. 47.62 (10/21), χ 2 = 5.829, P = 0.016], adenocarcinoma patients [72.34% (34/47) vs. 0, P = 0.017] and patients with malignant pleural effusion [92.86% (13/14) vs. 56.76% (21/37), χ 2 = 4.443, P = 0.035], and the differences were statistically significant. However, there was no statistically significant difference in mutations of driver gene among patients with different age or tumor stages (both P > 0.05). The consistency rate of genetic test results of the driver gene mutations in 37 plasma samples and matched tissue samples was 70.27% (26/37), κ value was 0.430, which suggested a good consistency between them. Conclusions:In patients with advanced NSCLC, gene detection of cerebrospinal fluid is of high application value for patients with meningeal metastasis; for patients with pleural invasion, gene detection of pleural effusion is an effective means to screen targeted therapy drugs. NGS detection of multiple specimens can better reflect the status of gene mutations and guide the individualized targeted therapy of lung cancer patients.
