Objective To investigate the basic situation of nuclear medicine diagnostic and treatment institutions in Shanghai, understand the development level and distribution characteristics of nuclear medicine in Shanghai, and assess the current status of nuclear medicine development in Shanghai. Methods Using questionnaires, on-site verification, and retrieval of information system records, a survey was carried out on nuclear medicine department staff, equipment, and personal radiation exposure levels of workers in Shanghai. Results As of December 2023, there were 48 nuclear medicine diagnostic and treatment institutions in Shanghai, including 32 (66.7%) tertiary hospitals. Of these, 24 (50%) hospitals performed ¹³¹I therapy, and 9 (18.8%) hospitals conducted ¹³¹I treatment for thyroid cancer. There were 681 nuclear medicine radiation workers, with an average annual effective dose from external radiation of 0.54 mSv. There were 137 pieces of nuclear medicine equipment, including 56 SPECT/CT, 42 PET/CT, 8 PET/MRI, 25 thyroid function meters, and 6 cyclotrons. In 2023, the total radioactivity of radionuclides used in Shanghai was 1.2 × 10⁸ MBq, with 3.4 × 10⁷ MBq of ¹⁸F, 7.4 × 10⁷ MBq of ^99mTc, and 1.2 × 10⁷ MBq of ¹³¹I. The total annual number of nuclear medicine diagnostic and treatment procedures performed was 247 826 and the application frequency was 10.0 procedures per thousand population. Conclusion Clinical nuclear medicine in Shanghai has developed rapidly, achieving the Level I healthcare standard as defined in the UNSCEAR 2008 report. Enhancing occupational protection for radiation workers is a critical issue that requires particular attention in the next phase of development.

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.

Objective:To understand the radiation protecton awareness of clinical staff for patients, and to provide strategies and suggestions for promoting the justification of medical exposure.Methods:From June to September 2023, 1 430 physicians or technicians from 10 tertiary hospitals, 9 secondary hospitals and 8 primary hospitals in Shanghai were selected by multi-stage stratified random sampling method to conduct a questionnaire survey about radiation-related cognition through a combination of offline and online survey. The contents of the questionnaire included the characteristics of the respondents, the training of radiation protection, the self-awareness of patients on radiation protection, the actual cognition of the basic knowledge of ionizing radiation, the cognition of the dose caused by different types of the radiological examinations, and the ways to access knowledge of ionizing radiation. SPSS software was used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 1 229 valid questionnaires were received, of which 82.10% respondents belonged to the clinical department and 17.90% belonged to the radiology department. 58.37% of the respondents in clinical department have received radiation-related training, and 98.64% in radiology department have done so. The overall mastery of radiation protection-related knowledge in radiology department was better than in clinical department, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=39.58, P<0.05). Most of the respondents tended to underestimate the radiation dose to patients from CT scans, and the proportion of the respondents who underestimated the CT doses to different sites was all greater than 45%. Logistic regression analysis showed that the contributing factors affecting radiation protection cognition are a combination of technical titles, radiation protection training to a varing degree, the level of medical institutions and their majors (95% CI of the OR values did not include 1, χ2=5.66-28.26, P<0.05). Conclusions:Most clinical staff have realized the importance of controlling the radiation dose in radiological examinations, but there is less understanding of the dose magnitude caused by different radiological examinations. Education and training are the best way to improve the awareness of ionizing radiation. Radiation protection training should be integrated into general medical education or standardized training for physicians.

Objective To investigate the application of intra pelvic pressure(IPP)in ultramicro-channel percutaneous nephrolithotripsy.Methods From January 2022 to January 2023,60 patients with urinary calculi who needed Super mini-PCNL(SMP)in The First Hospital of Jiaxing selected as the study objects.According to random number method,the patients were divided into control group and experimental group,with 30 cases.Both groups were treated with ultra-micro channel percutaneous nephrolithotripsia,while the experimental group was monitored and regulated IPP in real time during the operation,and observed and compared clinical indicators,IPP,fever,urinary protein,renal function,hemoglobin(Hb)and adverse reactions between the two groups.Results Compared with the control group,the hospitalization time of experimental group was shortened and the stone clearance rate was increased(P<0.05).The IPP levels of experimental groups at 6min,12min,24min and 36min were lower than those of control group(P<0.05).The fever of experimental group was lower than that of control group at 2d,3d,4d and 5d after operation(P<0.05).The urinary protein level of experimental group was lower than that of control group at 1d,2d,3d and 4d after operation(P<0.05).Compared with control group,blood urea nitrogen(BUN)and serum creatinine(SCr)levels of experimental group were decreased,and Hb levels were increased(P<0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions in experimental group was lower than that in control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Monitoring and adjusting intrapelvic pressure during super-mini percutaneous nephrolithotomy is beneficial in reducing postoperative fever in patients with urolithiasis,reducing urinary protein expression and kidney function damage,and controlling the occurrence of adverse reactions.It is worth recommending.

Phlegm and dampness are endogenous,rise and fall with Qi,reach the limbs,diffuse the whole body,and form obesity.Regulating phlegm dampness with traditional Chinese medicine can realize the early prevention and treatment of obesity.Intestinal microbiota participates in a variety of human metabolic processes.Regulating intestinal microbiota is a new way to prevent and treat obesity.Taking the close relationship between intestinal flora and its metabolites,obesity and phlegm dampness theory as the breakthrough point,and based on the existing research results,this paper discusses the possible role of intestinal microbiota and its metabolites in the formation of phlegm dampness and the prevention and treatment of obesity,It is considered that the common intestinal microbiota and its metabolites of different individuals with obesity caused by phlegm dampness may be used as specific indicators to become the new micro identification basis of obesity phlegm dampness theory.It is proposed that intestinal microbiota and its metabolites will become the key point of obesity phlegm dampness theory research,which will provide a new explanation for obesity prevention and control research,and expand new research fields for the connotation of TCM phlegm dampness theory.

ObjectiveTo analyze the individual monitoring results of the radiation workers in Shanghai’s Jing’an District from 2017 to 2023, to assess the occupational protection status as well as to offer scientific references for enhancing occupational health and radiation safety, and to provide support for health education initiatives targeting radiation workers. MethodsRadiation workers from several medical institutions in Jing’an District from 2017 to 2023 were selected as the subjects for this study. The individual dose of occupational external radiation exposure was monitored by using thermoluminescence dosimeters. Continuous data of seven years were statistically analyzed using SPSS 20.0. ResultsFrom 2017 to 2023, the annual collective effective dose for radiation workers in Jing’an District was 329.53 person·mSv, with an average individual annual effective dose of 0.17 mSv, and the median individual annual effective dose was 0.12 mSv. There were statistically significant differences in the individual annual effective doses across different years (H=277.131, P<0.05). The individual doses varied significantly among different levels of medical institutions (H=46.097, P<0.05), with tertiary institutions having the lowest median individual dose of 0.09 mSv, which was significantly lower than those at primary, secondary, and ungraded institutions (P<0.05). The median annual effective dose in males was lower than that in females, showing a statistically significant difference (Z=-3.438, P<0.05). There were significant differences in the individual annual effective doses among different occupational categories (H=150.727, P<0.05), with nuclear medicine workers experiencing the highest median annual dose of 0.56 mSv. ConclusionFrom 2017 to 2023, the individual dose of radiation workers in medical institutions in Jing’an District of Shanghai remained at a low level, reflecting the effective measures of radiation protection facilities in workplaces in Jing’an District, but particular attention should be given to radiological workers in nuclear medicine and workers in primary medical institutions.

Background::Atopic dermatitis (AD) affects approximately 10% of adults worldwide. CM310 is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting interleukin-4 receptor alpha that blocks interleukin-4 and interleukin-13 signaling. This trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CM310 in Chinese adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Methods::This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2b trial was conducted in 21 medical institutions in China from February to November 2021. Totally 120 eligible patients were enrolled and randomized (1:1:1) to receive subcutaneous injections of 300 mg CM310, 150 mg CM310, or placebo every 2 weeks for 16 weeks, followed by an 8-week follow-up period. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving ≥75% improvement in the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI-75) score from baseline at week 16. Safety and pharmacodynamics were also studied.Results::At week 16, the proportion of EASI-75 responders from baseline was significantly higher in the CM310 groups (70% [28/40] for high-dose and 65% [26/40] for low-dose) than that in the placebo group (20%[8/40]). The differences in EASI-75 response rate were 50% (high vs. placebo, 95% CI 31%–69%) and 45% (low vs. placebo, 95% CI 26%–64%), with both P values <0.0001. CM310 at both doses also significantly improved the EASI score, Investigator’s Global Assessment score, daily peak pruritus Numerical Rating Scale, AD-affected body surface area, and Dermatology Life Quality Index compared with placebo. CM310 treatment reduced levels of thymus and activation-regulated chemokine, total immunoglobulin E, lactate dehydrogenase, and blood eosinophils. The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) was similar among all three groups, with the most common TEAEs reported being upper respiratory tract infection, atopic dermatitis, hyperlipidemia, and hyperuricemia. No severe adverse events were deemed to be attributed to CM310. Conclusion::CM310 at 150 mg and 300 mg every 2 weeks demonstrated significant efficacy and was well-tolerated in adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Trial Registration::ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04805411.
