[Objective] To explore the clinical features of IgG4-related urinary diseases so as to provide reference for the diagnosis and treatment of such diseases. [Methods] The clinical data of 4 cases of IgG4-related urinary system diseases diagnosed and treated in Xijing Hospital of Air Force Medical University during Aug.2019 and Dec.2023 were retrospectively collected.Here, we report on the diagnosis and treatment of these patients, analysing their symptoms, serology, imaging and pathology as well as their treatment and outcomes. [Results] The patients included 2 male and 2 female.The lesions were involved with the retroperitoneum and urinary system.Three patients had symptoms of lumbar pain.The imaging manifestations were complex, including retroperitoneal mass involving urinary system organs in 2 cases, tabdense shadow of the right kidney in 1 case, and simple cystic mass of kidney in 1 case.Serum IgG4 value was not detected before surgery.All patients underwent radical surgical treatment.Postoperative pathology showed fibrous tissue hyperplasia with a large number of plasma cells, lymphocytes, a few neutrophil infiltrates, and lymphoid follicles and obliterated vasculitis in some specimens.The number of IgG4⁺ plasma cells was more than 10 in all tissues under high power microscope.After surgery, 3 patients had symptoms improved, and serum IgG4 value was within the normal range; 1 patient (patem 3) had elevated IgG4 value during follow-up, received subsequent hormone therapy, and the serum IgG 4 level remained stable. [Conclusion] The symptoms of IgG4-related diseases involving the urinary system are non-specific, and the imaging findings are various, easily confused with other diseases.Early detection of serum IgG4 and biopsy pathology can help clinicians make correct diagnosis in the early stage.

Objective:To explore the characteristics of attention bias and the role of embodied emotion prim-ing in college students with different traits of anxiety.Methods:From 2 310 college students,28 from low trait anxi-ety group and 30 from high trait anxiety group were selected based on the scores of the Trait Anxiety Scale.The at-tention bias index,attention orientation index and attention detachment difficulty index were calculated by point de-tection experiment.By asking two groups of subjects to change their body posture to induce embodied emotion,and then responding to the location of the detection point,the effects of embodied emotion priming on the attention bias of college students with different traits of anxiety were investigated.Results:The point detection experiment found that the attention detachment difficulty index of negative emotional faces in the high trait anxiety group was signifi-cantly greater than 0,and the attention orientation index of positive emotional faces in the low trait anxiety group was significantly greater than 0(Ps＜0.05).The attention bias index for positive emotional faces in low trait anxie-ty group was significantly higher than that in high trait anxiety group(P＜0.05).Under embodied negative prim-ing,the attention bias index of negative emotional faces in low trait anxiety group was significantly greater than 0(P＜0.05).The attention orientation indices of negative emotional faces were significantly higher than that of posi-tive emotional faces in both groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion:College students with high trait anxiety have difficulty in escaping attention to negative faces,while those with low trait anxiety have accelerated attention orientation to positive emotional faces.Embodied negative priming may have a greater impact onattention bias of towards negative emotional faces in students with low trait anxiety.

Objective To analyze the relationship between type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and cognitive disorder in middle-aged and elderly patients with Parkinson's disease(PD),and to identify risk factors for cognitive disorder in PD patients.Methods The clinical data of patients aged≥50 years and hospitalized for PD in Xijing Hospital of Air Force Medical University from Jan.2010 to Dec.2021 were collected,including demographic characteristics,general clinical features,laboratory indicators,etc.The cognitive status was evaluated by mini-mental state examination(MMSE).A total of 281 PD patients were assigned to T2DM group or non-T2DM group,and MMSE original score,standardized score,and cognitive status were compared between the 2 groups.The 281 patients were reassigned to normal cognition group or abnormal cognition group,then multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of cognitive disorder in middle-aged and elderly patients with PD.Results The MMSE original score and standardized score in the T2DM group were significantly lower than those in the non-T2DM group(23[18,25]vs 24[21,27],P=0.011;-1[-3,2]vs 1[-1,3],P=0.004),and the detection rate of cognitive disorder was significantly higher than that of the non-T2DM group(53.57%[45/84]vs 33.50%[66/197],P=0.002).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that T2DM(odds ratio[OR]=2.452,95%confidence interval[95%CI]1.397-4.306,P=0.002),place of residence(OR=2.208,95%CI 1.261-3.868,P=0.006),and age(OR=1.054,95%CI 1.006-1.104,P=0.028)were risk factors for cognitive disorder in middle-aged and elderly patients with PD,while serum uric acid(OR=0.274,95%CI 0.098-0.768,P=0.014)was protective factor for cognitive disorder in middle-aged and elderly patients with PD.Conclusion T2DM,rural area,advanced age,and hypouricemia are independent risk factors for cognitive disorder in middle-aged and elderly patients with PD.For middle-aged and elderly PD patients with T2DM,screening for cognitive disorder should be strengthened for early prevention and intervention.

Objective:To explore the relationship and underlying mechanisms between servant leadership and satisfaction of medical staff in tertiary hospitals, and to provide references for improving satisfaction of medical personnel.Methods:From January to June 2023, a questionnaire survey was conducted among on-duty medical staff at a tertiary hospital in Guangzhou using a simple random sampling method. Data corresponding to four key variables: servant leadership, hospital management level, affective commitment, and satisfaction of medical staff were collected. SPSS 25.0 software was used to perform independent samples t-tests and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) to examine group differences, and Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to explore the relationships among multiple variables. Amos 24.0 software was employed to construct a structural equation model to conduct confirmatory factor analysis of the four key variables, analyze potential mediating effects, and use multi-group analysis to examine differences in path parameters and structure among groups. Results:A total of 632 valid questionnaires were obtained. The satisfaction score of medical staff was (4.50±0.66)(maximum score was 5 points). Age, years of work experience, and job category had statistically significant effects on satisfaction of medical staff ( F = 5.799, 6.483, 7.671; P = 0.001). All four key variables were significantly positively correlated ( P<0.001). Servant leadership, hospital management level, and affective commitment all had direct positive effects on satisfaction of medical staff, with path coefficients of 0.207, 0.386, and 0.345, respectively ( P <0.05, critical ratio>1.96). Hospital management level and affective commitment each had independent partial mediating effects between servant leadership and satisfaction of medical staff (path coefficients of 0.353 and 0.067, respectively; P = 0.007, 0.018). They also jointly exerted a chain mediating effect (path coefficient of 0.243, P = 0.013). Differences in path effects among different job categories (clinical doctors, nurses, and administrative support staff) were statistically significant ( χ2 = 43.344, df = 24, P = 0.009). Conclusions:The servant leadership in tertiary hospitals can directly influence the satisfaction of medical staff, as well as indirectly influence it through emotional commitment and hospital management level. Moreover, the mechanisms of influence vary among medical staff of different professional categories. Tertiary hospitals should introduce and promote servant leadership styles, enhance the servant leadership behaviors of management personnel, and strengthen the synergistic effects of servant leadership, hospital management level, and affective commitment. Differential adjustment mechanisms should be implemented for different job categories.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of Fuzheng Yangxin Prescription in improving cardiac function in rats with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction(HFrEF)through regulation of AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway.Methods An HFrEF rat model was established via left anterior descending coronary artery ligation.Rats were randomized divided into sham-operation group,model group,Fuzheng Yangxin Prescription group and Entresto group,followed by 28 days of intervention.Echocardiography was used to measure left ventricular internal dimension at end-systole(LVIDs),left ventricular internal dimension at end-diastole(LVIDd),left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),left ventricular fractional shortening(LVFS),HE staining and Masson staining were used to observe myocardial morphology and fibrosis,serum contents of NT-proBNP and inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6)were detected by ELISA,Western blot was performed to analyze p-AMPK,p-mTOR and protein expressions of autophagy markers(Beclin1,LC3,p62).Results Compared with sham-operation group,the LVIDs and LVIDd in model group significantly increased(P<0.05),while LVEF and LVFS significantly decreased(P<0.05),the structure of myocardial cells was disordered and arranged loosely,the deposition of collagen fibers in the infarct area was increased,and the contents of NT-proBNP,TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 in serum significantly increased(P<0.05),the protein expressions of p-AMPK,Beclin1 and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ in myocardial tissue significantly decreased(P<0.05),while the protein expressions of p-mTOR and p62 significantly increased(P<0.05);compared with the model group,the LVIDs and LVIDd of rats in Fuzheng Yangxin Prescription group significantly decreased(P<0.05),the LVEF and LVFS were significantly increased(P<0.05),the disorder of myocardial cell arrangement and fibrosis were alleviated,the contents of NT-proBNP,TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 in serum significantly decreased(P<0.05),the protein expressions of p-AMPK,Beclin1 and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ in myocardial tissue significantly increased(P<0.05),while the protein expressions of p-mTOR and p62 significantly decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion Fuzheng Yangxin Prescription may regulate autophagy by activating AMPK/mTOR pathway and improve cardiac function in HFrEF rats.

Objective:To investigate the influence and mechanism of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) overexpressing growth arrest specific 6, i.e. GAS6/BMSCs on full-thickness skin defect wounds in diabetic mice.Methods:This study was an experimental study. Twelve 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were divided into a control wound group with only full-thickness skin defects and a diabetic wound group with diabetic full-thickness skin defects according to the random number table method, with 6 mice in each group. The wound healing rates were calculated at 3, 7, 14, and 21 days after injury. At 21 days after injury, wound tissue specimens were collected for hematoxylin-eosin staining to observe the histopathological conditions; Masson staining was performed to detect collagen deposition; immunohistochemical staining was performed to detect the number of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)-positive cells and CD31-positive cells, representing cell proliferation and capillary density, respectively; immunofluorescence staining was performed to detect the number of F4/80 and myeloperoxidase (MPO) double-positive cells, indicating efferocytosis. Two 4-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were used to extract BMSCs, and GAS6/BMSCs were constructed through adenovirus transfection and successfully identified. Eighteen 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were used to create diabetic full-thickness skin defect wound models and divided into phosphate buffered solution (PBS) group, BMSC group, and GAS6/BMSC group (with 6 mice in each group) according to the random number table method. Immediately after injury, PBS, BMSC single-cell suspension, and GAS6/BMSC single-cell suspension were injected locally into the wounds of the three groups of mice, respectively. The wound healing rates were calculated, and the cell proliferation, capillary density, and efferocytosis were detected at the same time points as the previous experiments.Results:At 3, 7, 14, and 21 days after injury, the wound healing rates of mice in diabetic wound group were significantly lower than those in control wound group (with t values of 7.99, 8.62, 9.80, and 5.85, respectively, P<0.05). Compared with those in control wound group, the wound tissue of mice in diabetic wound group showed the infiltration of a large number of inflammatory cells and reduced collagen deposition at 21 days after injury. At 21 days after injury, the number of PCNA-positive cells and CD31-positive cells in the wound tissue of mice in diabetic wound group were significantly less than that in control wound group (with t values of 6.61 and 5.38, respectively, P<0.05). At 21 days after injury, the number of F4/80 and MPO double-positive cells in the wound tissue of mice in diabetic wound group was 3.3±0.8, which was significantly less than 12.7±1.8 in control wound group ( t=11.00, P<0.05). At 14 and 21 days after injury, the wound healing rates of mice in BMSC group were significantly higher than those in PBS group ( P<0.05); at 3, 7, 14, and 21 days after injury, the wound healing rates of mice in GAS6/BMSC group were significantly higher than those in BMSC group ( P<0.05). At 21 days after injury, the number of PCNA-positive cells in the wound tissue of mice in BMSC group was significantly higher than that in PBS group ( P<0.05), and the number of PCNA-positive cells and CD31-positive cells in the wound tissue of mice in GAS6/BMSC group were significantly higher than that in BMSC group ( P<0.05). At 21 days after injury, the number of F4/80 and MPO double-positive cells in the wound tissue of mice in BMSC group was 4.2±1.2, which was similar to 3.5±1.1 in PBS group ( P>0.05); the number of F4/80 and MPO double-positive cells in the wound tissue of mice in GAS6/BMSC group was 8.2±1.2, which was significantly more than that in BMSC group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Dysfunctional efferocytosis of macrophage exists in the full-thickness skin defect wounds of diabetic mice, while GAS6/BMSC can promote wound healing by restoring the efferocytosis of macrophages.

Thoracolumbar spine fracture often leads to severe pain, functional impairments, and neurological deficits, for which open reduction and internal fixation can effectively restore the spinal structural stability. Open decompression and reduction with internal fixation can help relieve spinal cord compression and improve spinal function in cases of concomitant cord injury. Although spinal stability can be restored through surgery, patients often face chronic pain and functional impairments postoperatively. A postoperative rehabilitation program is critical in optimizing therapeutic outcomes, reducing complications, and minimizing the risk of secondary injuries. However, current rehabilitation methods, such as physical therapy, functional training, and pain management, are confronted with problems in clinical practice, including significant variation in efficacy, poor patient adherence, and prolonged rehabilitation period. There is an urgent need for a unified rehabilitation strategy to address these problems. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Physicians Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and the Spine Health Professional Committee of the Chinese Human Health Technology Promotion Association organized experts from relevant fields to formulate Evidence-based guidelines for rehabilitation treatment after internal fixation of thoracolumbar spine fracture in adults ( version 2025) by integrating evidences from clinical researches and advanced rehabilitation concepts at home and abroad. A total number of 14 recommendations concerning the rehabilitation treatment with multimodal analgesia, psychological intervention, deep vein thrombosis prevention, core muscle and extremity exercise, appropriate use of braces, early weight-bearing, device-aided rehabilitation exercise, neuroregulatory therapy, rehabilitation team were put forward, aiming to standardize the post-operative rehabilitation process following internal fixation, promote the functional recovery, and enhance patients′ quality of life.
