Objective To test the longitudinal mediating mechanism of kinesophobia between family functioning and exercise adherence in elderly patients with postoperative adjacent vertebral re-fracture after osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture(OVCF).Methods Convenience sampling method was used to admit to the Department of Orthopaedics of a tertiary hospital in Xuzhou City with adjacent vertebral re-fracture after OVCF were conveniently selected as the survey subjects,and longitudinal investigation was conducted using the APGAR,Functional Exercise Adherence Scale,and TSK Scale.Unconditional potential growth model,structural equation and Bootstrap method were used for statistical analysis.Results A total of 232 valid questionnaires were collected.Longitudinal mediation modeling revealed that the intercept of family functioning significantly negatively predicted the intercept of kinesophobia(β=-0.456,P＜0.001)and the slope of family functioning significantly negatively predicted the slope of kinesophobia(β=-0.962,P＜0.001).The intercept for kinesophobia significantly negatively predicted the intercept for exercise adherence(β=-0.623,P＜0.001)and significantly negatively predicted the slope for exercise adherence(β=-0.354,P=0.013).Conclusion The initial level and rate of development of kinesophobia play a fully longitudinal mediating role in the development of family functioning on exercise adherence.Medical professionals should assess and manage patients'family functioning and kinesophobia in a timely manner,and rationally utilize their interrelationships to improve the level of exercise adherence as much as possible.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between the hemodynamic pattern of non-culprit vessel stenosis and long-term vessel-oriented composite outcome(VOCO) in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).Methods:From January 2019 to December 2021, 233 consecutive patients with STEMI and non-culprit vessel stenosis were prospectively enrolled at Shanghai East Hospital. The median follow-up duration was 3.9 years. The 367 non-culprit vessels of the 233 patients were divided into the VOCO group (33 vessels, 9.0%) and the non-VOCO group (334 vessels, 91.0%). Parameters pertaining to the hemodynamic pattern of non-culprit vessel stenosis between the two groups were compared. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to assess the correlation between hemodynamic pattern and VOCO, and Cox multivariate regression and logistic multivariate regression analyses were applied to identify independent predictors of VOCO.Results:The 233 enrolled patients were aged (62.5±12.9) years, with 193 males (82.8%). In the VOCO group, the maximum quantitative flow ratio (QFR) decreased within 20 mm of the QFR-assessed segment, the difference in QFR across the entire vessel, the length of functionally significant vessel, and the maximum gradient of QFR decrease (dQFR/dsmax) were significantly greater than those in the non-VOCO group. ROC curve analysis showed that the optimal threshold for predicting VOCO using dQFR/dsmax was 0.009 6 (area under the curve: 0.691, 95% CI: 0.606-0.775, P<0.001). Multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that dQFR/dsmax was an independent predictor of VOCO ( HR=1.199, 95% CI: 1.070-1.343, P=0.002). When anatomical and functional stenosis severities were included in the model, a high pullback pressure gradient (PPG) index ( HR=1.572, 95% CI: 1.052-2.351, P=0.027) emerged as an independent predictor of VOCO. Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that a low PPG index( OR=2.851, 95% CI: 1.945-4.178, P<0.001) was an independent predictor of QFR≤0.80 without long-term VOCO. Conclusion:In patients with STEMI, localized hemodynamic patterns of coronary artery stenosis, characterized by high dQFR/dsmax and high PPG index, are associated with long-term VOCO.

Establishing a one-stop diagnosis and treatment mode centered on patients and linked by diseases is of great significance for optimizing the medical process and improving the medical experience. In March 2024, a tertiary hospital integrated pediatric outpatient and emergency resources, established a pediatric diagnosis and treatment island through reasonable department settings, strengthened talent team construction, optimized diagnosis and treatment processes, and established supporting guarantee mechanisms. It was officially put into use in June of the same year, providing one-stop diagnosis and treatment services for children and achieving the goal of " not leaving the island for minor illnesses and not leaving the hospital for major illnesses". Before the operation of island (January May 2024), the complaint rate and waiting time for pediatric outpatient and emergency department were 39 cases per 100 000 patients and 15 to 30 minutes, respectively; After operation (June August 2024), the complaint rate and waiting time decreased to 17 cases per 100 000 people and 10 to 20 minutes respectively; The average monthly comprehensive income of outpatient and emergency departments increased by 33%. The pediatric diagnosis and treatment island mode could assist in the sustainable high-quality development of pediatrics in hospital, and provide references for optimizing outpatient and emergency department management in other tertiary public hospitals. In the future, we should further enrich the service content of the island and strengthen information technology construction.

Objective To observe the effectiveness and safety of Viatorr stent applicated in TIPS for treating primary hepatic carcinoma(PHC)complicated with liver cirrhosis and upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage.Methods Date of 20 PHC patients complicated with liver cirrhosis and upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage who underwent TIPS using Viatorr stent were retrospectively analyzed.The technical success rate of TIPS,clinical success rate,complications,recurrence of upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage and the patency of stent shunt 1,3,6 and 12 months after TIPS were recorded.Results TIPS was successfully completed in all 20 cases,and the technical success rate was 100%.The portal venous pressure was(37.58±7.26)mmHg before TIPS and(18.35±6.47)mmHg after TIPS,and the difference was significant(P＜0.05).No active bleeding nor declined hemoglobin was found within 72 h after TIPS,and the clinical success rate was 100%(20/20).No severe complication such as intraperitoneal hemorrhage,hemorrhage caused by hepatic carcinoma rupture nor bile leakage occurred.During the follow-up period,hepatic encephalopathy occurred in 4 cases(4/20,20.00%)but alleviated after symptomatic treatments.Recurrence of upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage was noticed in 2 cases(2/20,10.00%),while 6 patients died(6/20,30.00%).One,3,6 and 12 months after TIPS,the patency of stent shunt was 100%(20/20),100%(20/20),100%(20/20)and 95.00%(19/20),respectively.Conclusion Viatorr stent applicated in TIPS was effective and safe for treating PHC complicated with liver cirrhosis and upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage.

The mammalian central nervous system (CNS) is considered an immune privileged system as it is separated from the periphery by the blood brain barrier (BBB). Yet, immune functions have been postulated to heavily influence the functional state of the CNS, especially after injury or during neurodegeneration. There is controversy regarding whether adaptive immune responses are beneficial or detrimental to CNS injury repair. In this study, we utilized immunocompromised SCID mice and subjected them to spinal cord injury (SCI). We analyzed motor function, electrophysiology, histochemistry, and performed unbiased RNA-sequencing. SCID mice displayed improved CNS functional recovery compared to WT mice after SCI. Weighted gene-coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) of spinal cord transcriptomes revealed that SCID mice had reduced expression of immune function-related genes and heightened expression of neural transmission-related genes after SCI, which was confirmed by immunohistochemical analysis and was consistent with better functional recovery. Transcriptomic analyses also indicated heightened expression of neurotransmission-related genes before injury in SCID mice, suggesting that a steady state of immune-deficiency potentially led to CNS hyper-connectivity. Consequently, SCID mice without injury demonstrated worse performance in Morris water maze test. Taken together, not only reduced inflammation after injury but also dampened steady-state immune function without injury heightened the neurotransmission program, resulting in better or worse behavioral outcomes respectively. This study revealed the intricate relationship between immune and nervous systems, raising the possibility for therapeutic manipulation of neural function via immune modulation.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and safety of new nano material occluder of single rivet type (left-disk with no-hub) in treating ventricular septal defect (VSD) in order to provide experimental basis for clinical application. Methods A total of 26 healthy adult dogs were selected for this study . Under thoracotomy , VSD model was established through fluoroscopically-guided percutaneous puncturing of the right ventricular free wall. The models were randomly and equally divided into the study group(n=13, using nano material VSD occluder) and the control group(n=13, using double-hub nitinol occluder). Every two dogs from each group were sacrificed each time at one, 2, and 3 months after percutaneous closure of VSD with corresponding occluder, the tissue samples were collected and sent for gross examination as well as for the optical and electronic microscopy study;the blood concentration of nickel ion was also determined. The state of endothelialization after implantation of the new type occluder was evaluated, and the complications such as residual shunt and superficial thrombus formation were recorded. The results were analyzed. Results By open chest operation with small incision and percutaneous puncturing of the right ventricular free wall, VSD model was successfully established in all 26 dogs. The success rate of the implantation of the VSD occluder in the study group was 100%, while it was 91.7% in the control group. One, 2, 3 and 6 months after the implantation, the heart specimens of 25 dogs were removed and gross examination showed that neither occluder displacement nor alloy wire fracture occurred in both groups. No thrombus formation or vegetation attached on the disk surface was observed. One month after the procedure , in the study group the bilateral disk surfaces of the occluder were covered with thin layer transparent tissue , which were proved to be composed of the fibrous tissue and endothelial cells through pathologic and electronic microscopy study. Six months after implantation, the superficial tissue of the occluder became further thickened and the occluder edge became fused with the surrounding heart tissue. Conclusion The design of the new VSD nano materials occluder, which has a left-disk with no hub, is very scientific. Compared with double-hub nitinol occluder, the new device can shorten the time of complete endothelialization and effectively occlude the VSD. Therefore, this new nano material occluder has promising prospect in clinical application.

Objective To assess the therapeutic effects of flupentixol and melitracen tablets combined with Saccharomyces boulardii on patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) accompanied with anxiety and depression.Methods This multi-center,randomized,prospective study enrolled 84 patients with diarrhea-predominant IBS who were divided into combined treatment group (42 patients) and control group (42 patients).Saccharomyces boulardii was administrated in both of the groups,and flupentixol and melitracen was added in combined treatment group.The treatment course was four weeks.The gastrointestinal symptoms and mood disorders were evaluated before treatment,one week and four weeks after treatment.Adverse reactions were also observed.Chi-square test was performed for statistical analysis.Results At the end of one week after treatment,the efficacy rates of gastrointestinal symptoms improvement of combined treatment group and control group were 31.0％ (13/42) and 23.8％ (10/42),and there was no statistically significant difference (P＞0.05).At the end of four weeks after treatment,the efficacy rate of gastrointestinal symptoms improvement of combined treatment group was 92.5％ (37/40),which was higher than that of control group (73.2％,30/41),and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =5.291,P =0.037).At the end of one week after treatment,the efficacy rates of Hamilton Depression Scale score improvement of combined treatment group and control group were 31.6％ (12/38) and 12.1％ (4/33),and there was no statistically significant difference (P＞0.05).At the end of four weeks after treatment,the efficacy rates of Hamilton Depression Scale score improvement of combined treatment group was 63.9％ (23/36),which was higher than that of control group (34.4％,11/42),and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =6.433,P=0.043).At the end of one week and four weeks after treatment,the efficacy rates of Hamilton Depression Scale score improvement of combined treatment group were 35.7％ (15/42) and 80.0％ (32/40),which were higher than those of control group (15.4％,6/39 and 34.2％,13/38),and the differences were statistically significant (x2 =9.759,P=0.007; x2 =17.105,P＜0.01).One week after treatment,the adverse events rates of combined treatment group and control group were 4.8％ (2/42) and 4.8％ (2/42) ; four weeks after treatment,the adverse events rates of combined treatment group and control group were 2.5％ (1/40) and 2.4％ (1/41).There was no statistically significant difference in adverse events rates between two groups (both P＞0.05).Conclusions Flupentixol and melitracen combined with Saccharomyces boulardii treatment could not only improve the anxiety and depression symptoms of patients with diarrhea-predominant IBS,but also effectively improve gastrointestinal symptoms.The efficacy of combined treatment is better than monotherapy Saccharomyces boulardii alone treatment.
