The number of patients with reduced blood volume due to haemorrhage, fractures, severe infections, extensive burns and tumours is increasing, and traditional blood products are no longer able to meet the increasing clinical demand. Therefore, plasma substitutes have become particularly important in fluid resuscitation, especially artificial colloidal solutions, which have a sustained volume expansion time and a good volume expansion effect, and can significantly improve the circulatory status of patients. This article aims to review the classification of artificial colloidal plasma substitutes and their research progress in clinical practice, in order provide a more rigorous, professional and standardized reference for medicine.

Objective To explore the potential cuproptosis-related genes(CRGs)in patients with multiple myeloma(MM)and develop a prognostic model for improving prognosis and revealing features of the MM immune microenvironment.Methods ① Transcriptome sequencing data and clinical information were retrieved from the GSE4581 dataset in the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database and the Cancer Genome Atlas-Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation(TCGA-MMRF)database.The 859 patients from the TCGA-MMRF database were assigned into a training set,and the other 414 ones from the GSE4581 dataset into a validation set.LASSO-Cox and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to construct prognostic models and calculate risk scores.Based on the median risk score,they were categorized into high-and low-risk cohorts.Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic(ROC)and calibration curves were plotted to assess the predictive performance and accuracy of the model.The differences between the high-and low-risk cohorts were explored using Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis and immune microenvironment correlation analysis.② RT-qPCR and Western blotting were used to verify the expression of prognostic model genes in MM cell lines and normal bone marrow single-nucleated cells,and CCK-8 assay,flow cytometry,and Western blotting were applied to verify the biological function of UBE2D1 in MM cells.Results ① LASSO-Cox and multivariate Cox regression analyses revealed that the model consisted of 4 genes,CDKN2A[HR=1.60(95%CI:1.24～2.05),P=2.5e-4],PDE3B[HR=1.33(95%CI:1.09～1.62),P=4.2e-3],UBE2D1[HR=1.65(95%CI:1.20～2.26),P=2.1e-3]and COA6[HR=1.35(95%CI:1.07～1.71),P=0.01].In the training set,the time-dependent ROC curves predicted that the area under curve(AUC)value of 1-,3-,and 5-year survival rate was 0.63,0.71,and 0.78,respectively,and in the validation set,the AUC value was 0.656,0.657,and 0.797,respectively.Calibration curve analysis showed excellent agreement in predicting 1-,3-,and 5-year prognosis.In the training set,Kaplan-Meier curves showed that patients in the high-risk cohort had a significantly shorter overall survival(OS)than the low-risk cohort[HR=2.18(95%CI:1.58～3.02),P<0.001],and in the validation set,the high-risk cohort still had a shorter OS than the low-risk cohort[HR=2.45(95%CI:1.49～4.05),P<0.001].Immune correlation analysis revealed that the ratios of immune cells,such as plasma cells and CD4+T cells were significantly lower in the high-risk cohort(P<0.05),and the risk scores were positively correlated with the expression of immune checkpoint CTLA-4,tumor-targeted therapeutic sites TNFSF4 and ENTPD1,and microenvironmental chemokines CXCL16,CCL8,and CCL16(P<0.05).② Remarkable differences were observed in the expression of all 4 prognostic model genes between the MM cell lines and normal bone marrow single-nucleated cells(P<0.05),and knockdown of UBE2D1 notably inhibited the proliferation of MM cells(P<0.05).Conclusion Our prognostic models based on CDKN2A,PDE3B,UBE2D1,and COA6 genes can predict the prognosis of MM patients.The risk scores of the genes are significantly correlated with immune infiltration in the tumor microenvironment,which providing new molecular markers for individualized therapy.

Poly amino acids are a class of polymers composed of α-amino acids as structural units linked by peptide bonds, exhibiting structural similarity to natural proteins. This class can be degraded into polypeptides, amino acids, and small molecules, demonstrating unique advantages in the field of bone repair. Various functionalized amino acid monomers and their polymerization methods have been developed, primarily including ring-opening polymerization, polycondensation, enzymatic catalysis, and solid-phase synthesis. These methods enable the polymerization of poly glutamic acid, poly lysine, poly aspartic acid, and others into polypeptides to meet the requirements for bone injury repair. However, as the number of amino acids increases and the polypeptide chains extend, molecular chains can form secondary structures such as α-helices and β-sheets through non-covalent interactions like hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. These structures play a decisive role in the bioactivity and functionality of poly(amino acid). Therefore, the function of poly(amino acid) is highly dependent on its monomer composition, sequence, secondary structure, and charge characteristics, allowing precise design to effectively regulate biological effects. Nevertheless, the major challenges in applying poly (amino acid) to bone defect repair remain unresolved, namely scalable production and long-term safety and efficacy. It is believed that, with interdisciplinary integration, a new generation of poly(amino acid) materials, combining excellent properties, bioactivity, and smart-responsive traits, is expected to advance bone repair strategies toward precision, personalization, and efficiency.

Objective To construct a high-precision statistical shape model of the humerus and systematically describe its anatomical variation patterns.Methods In this study,a statistical shape model of the humerus was constructed using the three-dimensional model data of 60 collected humerus cases.The principal component analysis method was adopted to reveal the main patterns of humerus anatomical variations and their contribution rates.Results The results showed that the first five principal components(PC01-PC05)collectively explained 96.6%of the total anatomical variations.Among them,PC01 and PC02 were the main components,contributing 66.6%and 23.5%of the variations respectively.PC01 mainly reflects the scaling effect of the overall size(length/width)of the humerus,while PC02 reveals the length variation characteristics independent of the overall scaling,which may reflect individualized differences.The subsequent principal components(PC03-PC05)depicted the local morphological characteristics and fine changes of the proximal and distal humerus.Conclusion The statistical shape model constructed in this study provides a reliable digital basis for personalized prosthesis design,surgical planning and biomechanical simulation.

Purpose To explore the clinical and pathological features,differential diagnosis,treatment methods and prognosis of urachal adenocarcinoma.Methods Nineteen cases of urachal adenocarcinoma were collected and an-alyzed by combining clinical symptoms,auxiliary examinations,histology,immunohistochemical,and genetic testing and 11 cases of bladder adenocarcinomas.Results Among the 19 patients(15 males,4 females;age range:33-75 years,mean:55 years),tumors were located at the dome or anterior wall of the bladder.Histological subtypes includ-ed mucinous adenocarcinoma(6 cases),adenocarcinoma not otherwise specified(4 cases),enteric-type adenocarci-noma(6 cases),adenocarcinoma with focal mucinous differentiation(1 case),adenocarcinoma with signet-ring cell carcinoma(1 case),and metastatic urachal adenocarcinoma(1 case).Immunophenotypic analysis revealed membra-nous positivity for β-catenin,diffuse positivity for CK34βE 12,MUC-2,and CK20,focal CK7 positivity in some cases,and rare GATA-3 positivity.Mutations in p53 were observed,while KRAS,NRAS,BRAF,and PIK3CA mutations were absent.In colorectal adenocarcinomas,CK34βE12 positivity was 40％,nuclear β-catenin positivity was 48％,and MUC-2 expression was approximately 50％.In bladder adenocarcinomas,GATA-3 and MUC-2 positivity rates were 45％and 63.6％,respectively.Conclusion Distinguishing urachal adenocarcinoma from colorectal and primary bladder adenocarcinomas remains challenging.Urachal adenocarcinoma should be suspected in patients with anterior bladder wall or dome lesions,gross hematuria,or mucinuria.No definitive diagnostic markers currently exist for ura-chal adenocarcinoma.Immunophenotypic features such as membranous β-catenin,MUC-2,and CK7 positivity may fa-vor urachal adenocarcinoma over colorectal adenocarcinoma.Additional markers(e.g.,GATA-3,CK20,CK34βE12)aid in differential diagnosis,though individual markers lack specificity.Comprehensive evaluation integrating clinical presentation,imaging,and clinicopathological features is essential for accurate diagnosis.

Acupuncture and moxibustion have their unique advantages in treating tumors,but the theoretical framework of acupuncture and moxibustion intervention in tumors needs to be improved,and the academic system still needs to be sorted out.In this paper,we try to describe the commonalities between Chinese medical theories and modern medical technologies in order to consolidate the theoretical foundation of acupuncture intervention in tumor.Specifically:① Acupuncture regulates immune function and energy metabolism,which is a specific form of tonifying the spleen and stomach to support positive qi.② Tumors belong to the broad definition of"sores and ulcers"in traditional Chinese medicine,which is a special kind of chronic inflammation,and acupuncture intervenes in tumors by intervening in inflammatory reactions from ulcers.③ Tumor is a"dynamic pseudo-organ"with yin and yang attributes and"life attributes".Acupuncture and moxibustion can regulate various cells and factors in the tumor environment in a multi-targeted way,so as to make it tend to the state of yin and yang equilibrium.④ Acupuncture and moxibustion have unique advantages in the reduction of toxicity,enhancement of efficacy,tonicity,rejuvenation,treatment of complications,etc.,which complement the allopathic therapies of modern medicine,and can help to realize survival with tumors.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.
