Objective To evaluate the correlation between soluble programmed cell death-ligand 1(PD-L1)and clinical features of patients with unstable angina pectoris(UAP),and analyze its correlation with prognosis.Methods A total of 171 UAP patients treated in our hospital from April 2021 to October 2023 were recruited retrospectively,and according to adverse cardiovascular events occurred or not within 6 months of follow-up,they were divided into good prognosis group(137 cases)and poor prognosis group(34 cases).Fasting venous blood sample of 4 ml was collect-ed to detect the levels of soluble PD-L1,LDL-C,HDL-C,hs-CRP,hs-cTnI,IL-6,IL-10 and TNF-α.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between soluble PD-L1 level and clinical features of the UAP patients,and logistic regression model was employed to evaluate the correlation between soluble PD-L1 and the occurrence of adverse cardiovascular events in the UAP patients.ROC curve analysis was applied to evaluate its performance in predicting the clini-cal prognosis,and its AUC value was calculated.Results The poor prognosis group had signifi-cantly lower LDL-C level and LVEF value,but higher levels of HDL-C,hs-CRP,hs-cTnI,IL-6,IL-10,TNF-α and soluble PD-L1 than the good prognosis group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Pearson cor-relation analysis showed that soluble PD-L1 level was positively correlated with hs-CRP level(r=0.502,P=0.000).Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the levels of hs-CRP,hs-cTnI and soluble PD-L1 were independent influencing factors for major cardiovascular adverse events in the UAP patients(OR=2.872,95％CI:1.069-7.717,P=0.036;OR=1.667,95％CI:1.022-2.717,P=0.040;OR=1.152,95％CI:1.023-1.297,P=0.019).ROC curve anal-ysis revealed that soluble PD-L1 had high predictive value for clinical prognosis of UAP patients,with an AUC value of 0.942,a sensitivity of 82.35％and a specificity of 94.16％.Conclusion The increased level of soluble PD-L1 increases the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events in UAP patients.Soluble PD-L1 can be used as a potential new biomarker to predict the clinical prognosis of patients.

Objective:To investigate and analyze basic status of radiotherapy units in Hebei Province in 2024.Methods:Led by the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University, the Radiation Oncology Branch of the Hebei Medical Association, and the Radiation Oncology Expert Committee of the Hebei Society of Clinical Oncology, a province-wide survey was conducted using structured questionnaires. The survey covered key aspects such as basic information of radiotherapy institutions, personnel allocation, equipment configuration, and implementation of radiotherapy techniques. Collected data were summarized and descriptively analyzed comparing with a 2013 survey of radiotherapy in Hebei Province.Results:All 158 radiotherapy institutions across Hebei Province participated in the survey. A total of 2273 radiotherapy professionals were reported, including 1317 radiation oncologists (57.94%), 332 medical physicists (14.61%), 71 radiotherapy engineers (3.12%), and 553 radiotherapy technologists (24.33%). The number of radiotherapy devices significantly increased from 121 in 2013 to 237 in 2024, including 68 domestic radiotherapy equipment. The current inventory includes 195 medical linear accelerators (2.61 units per million population), 2 cobalt-60 units, 27 afterloading machines, 9 tomotherapy (TOMO) systems, 3 CyberKnife units, and 1 proton therapy system. Three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy and stati intensity-modulated radiotherapy have been widely adopted across the province, while advanced techniques such as volumetric-modulated arc therapy, stereotactic body radiotherapy, and respiration-gated technology, and respiratory gating are gradually being implemented.Conclusions:In recent years, the configuration of radiotherapy personnel in Hebei Province has become more balanced, and the availability of precision radiotherapy equipment has significantly improved. There is a growing trend in the adoption of domestically manufactured radiotherapy equipment, marking substantial progress in the development of radiation oncology services in the region.

Objective To explore the gender differences and the influence of varus and valgus deformities on distal femur rotational alignment in patients with knee osteoarthritis so as to provide reference for the distal femur rotational osteotomy in total knee arthroplasty(TKA).Methods CT data of 125 knees with osteoarthritis suitable for TKA(including 56 males and 69 females;78 varus knees and 47 valgus knees)were collected and received three-dimensional imaging reconstruction with Mimics software.We measured the posterior condylar angle(PCA),the angle between the anteroposterior axis and the surgical epicondylar axis(ASA),and the angle between the anteroposterior axis and the posterior condylar axis(APA).We also compared gender differences and the influences of varus-valgus deformities on distal femur rotational alignments.Results The PCA and ASA values of distal femur rotational alignments were(3.5±1.1)° vs.(2.8±1.2)°(P=0.001)and(90.6±3.4)° vs.(91.9±3.5)°(P=0.028)for males and females,with statistically differences between the genders.There was no statistically difference in APA between males and females(P=0.482).The PCA values of distal femur rotational alignment in varus and valgus knees were(3.6±1.1)° and(2.9±1.2)°,with a statistically difference between the two groups(P=0.001).There were no statistically differences in ASA or APA between varus and valgus knees(P＞0.05).Conclusion Gender and varus-valgus deformities of knee joint affect the distal femur rotational alignment.Distal femur rotational osteotomy angle should be determined according to the patient's CT imaging before TKA to reduce the errors caused by individual differences and improve the accuracy of the distal femur rotational alignment during TKA.

Aim To explore the mechanism of Lycium barbarum glycopeptide(LbGP)improving aging in rat primary ovarian granulosa cells.Methods This study divided the cells into a normal group,a DOX group,and four different LbGP concentration treatment groups post-DOX intervention.Results Cell proliferation was assessed using CCK-8,EDU,and Ki67 assays,while aging markers and mitochondrial function-related fac-tors were detected using immunofluorescence and West-ern blotting.The results showed that,compared to the DOX group,LbGP treatment significantly increased cell viability(P＜0.05)and promoted proliferation(P＜0.05).Post LbGP treatment,the β-galactosidase-posi-tive area in cells was significantly reduced compared to the DOX group(P＜0.05).Immunofluorescence re-sults indicated that,compared to the DOX group,levels of p21 and γH2AX significantly decreased(P＜0.05),while pRB increased(P＜0.05)after LbGP treatment.Western blot results showed that,compared to the DOX group,the aging phenotype proteins p21 and p53 significantly decreased(P＜0.05),and pRB notably increased(P＜0.05)in the LbGP treatment group.The release of cytC into the cytoplasm and the activated caspase-9 significantly decreased(P＜0.05);levels of CAMKK2,pAMPK,and mitochondrial calcium homeostasis regulator MCU increased(P＜0.05);nuclear energy metabolism-related proteins SirT1,PGC1α/β and ATP5A1 significantly increased(P＜0.05);compared to the DOX group,ROS levels significantly decreased after LbGP treatment(P＜0.05).Conclusions The results suggest that LbGP can ameliorate DOX-induced aging in rat primary ovar-ian granulosa cells,potentially through the upregulation of the CAMKKβ/AMPK signaling pathway,thereby im-proving mitochondrial calcium homeostasis and increas-ing the expression levels of cell energy metabolism-re-lated regulatory proteins.This provides an experimen-tal basis for LbGP's potential role in supporting the im-provement of ovarian function.

Objective:To explore the prognostic factors of seroma after endoscopic thyroidectomy by breast ap-proach,and construct a nomogram to predict the possibility of cervical seroma.Methods:Data of patients undergoing endoscopic thyroid surgery in Dongguan Tungwah Hospital from January 2022 to May 2024 and Dongguan Songshan Lake Tungwah Hospital from May 2023 to August 2024 were retrospectively analyzed,and 1493 patients meeting the in-clusion criteria were selected.Among them,there were 1048 patients in Dongguan Tungwah Hospital as the training co-hort,1015 patients without seroma group and 33 patients with seroma group.There were 445 patients in Dongguan Songshan Lake Tungwah Hospital as the verification cohort,including 424 patients without seroma and 21 patients with seroma.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to obtain relevant independent prognostic factors,and R soft-ware established a nomogram model.Calibration curves,Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit,ROC curves were used to evaluate the calibrability of the nomogram model,and clinical utility was assessed by clinical decision curves.Results:Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that central lymph node dissection,diabetes,hyperthyroidism,and nod-ule size were independent prognostic factors related to seroma.Based on the prognostic factors,the nomogram of se-roma after ETBA was constructed.The calibration curves of the training and the verification group were in good agree-ment with the observed results,and the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test was good,with the training cohort P=0.244 and the verification cohort P=0.803.The ROC curve of the training cohort showed that the area under the curve was 0.810(95%CI:0.740～0.879),and the ROC curve of the verification cohort showed that the area under the curve was 0.815(95%CI:0.722～0.909).Conclusion:The nomogram model based on the relevant prognostic factors ob-tained by multivariate logistic regression analysis has a good prediction effect on the seroma after ETBA,and can provide reasonable and individualized treatment plan for patients.

A molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor for rapid detection of tenuazonic acid(TeA)was developed based on the Au-MoS2/MOF(Fe2+/Fe3+)high-efficiency catalytic cycle amplification strategy,using p-aminobenzoic acid(PABA)as the functional monomer,and TeA as the template molecule.The molecularly imprinted polymer(MIP)was prepared on the surface of Au-MoS2/MOF(Fe2+/Fe3+)modified electrode through electropolymerization.By introducing flower-like MoS2 nanoflakes(MoS2 NFs)as a co-catalyst into a mixed-valence structured Fe-MOF(Fe2+/Fe3+),the H2O2 electrochemical signal of the MIP/Au-MoS2/MOF(Fe2+/Fe3+)/GCE was significantly enhanced.Under optimal conditions,the sensor exhibited good selectivity and high sensitivity toward TeA.A linear relationship(R2=0.992)was observed between the electrochemical response and TeA concentration in the range of 0.001-10 μg/kg,with a detection limit of 0.3 ng/kg.The developed method was successfully applied to determination of TeA in fruit samples,with recoveries ranging from 90.8%to 110.8%,and relative standard deviations from 1.9%to 8.4%.

Objective To establish a chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method for detecting chlorfenapyr and its metabolite tralopyril in blood,and to investigate the toxicokinetics in rats.Methods Chlorfenapyr(8 mg/kg)was administered orally to rats,and blood samples were collected from rats'canthus vein at 5 min,15 min,30 min,1 h,3 h,6 h,12 h,24 h and 48 h after administration.The blood samples were extracted using 100 μL of 5%formic acid solution and 400 μL of acetonitrile.Chlorfena-pyr was qualitatively and quantitatively detected by triple quadrupole gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(GC-MS/MS)and tralopyril was detected by triple quadrupole liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS).The DAS 3.0 software was used to fit the toxicokinetic equa-tions and calculate the toxicokinetic parameters.Results Chlorfenapyr was detectable from 5 min to 24 h with a peak time of 1 h.Tralopyril was detectable from 15 min to 48 h with a peak time of 3 h.The toxicokinetic process of chlorfenapyr in rat blood conformed to a first-order absorption one-compartment open model,with the toxicokinetic equation described as C=e-0.265t-e-0.175t.Tralopyril con-formed to the first-order absorption three-compartment model,and the toxicokinetic equation was C=47 361.069e-2.209t-35 404.962e-1.486t+11 956.363e-0.512t.In the equations,C stands for the concentration of the target substance in the blood,e is the natural constant(≈2.718 28),and t stands for time.Conclu-sion This study optimized the detection method for chlorfenapyr and its metabolite tralopyril in blood.The toxicokinetic equations and parameters of chlorfenapyr and tralopyril can provide a reference for the estimation of oral intake time of chlorfenapyr.

Postoperative infection of internal fixation of closed fractures the lower limbs in adults represents a devastating complication, characterized by diagnostic challenges, prolonged treatment duration and high disability rates. Current management of these infections faces multiple challenges, such as difficulties in early accurate diagnosis, and various controversies about the treatment plan, leading to poor overall diagnosis and treatment results. To address these issues, based on evidence-based medicine and principles with emphasis on scientific rigor, clinical applicability and innovation, the Trauma Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Orthopedics Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Trauma Orthopedics and Polytrauma Group of the Resuscitation and Emergency Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association have collaboratively organized a panel of relevant experts to develop the Guideline for diagnosis and treatment of infection after internal fixation of closed lower limb fractures in adults ( version 2025). The guideline proposed 10 recommendations, aiming to provide a foundation for standardized diagnosis and treatment of postoperative infection in adults with closed lower limb fractures.

Sacroiliac complex injuries are commonly seen in high-energy pelvic fractures. The injuries make a big difference in treatment patterns due to the diverse injury types, posing considerable challenges in formulating optimal treatment strategies, and hence are persistent clinical difficulties in orthopedic trauma. The clinical management of sacroiliac complex injuries presents several key challenges such as a non-negligible rate of missed diagnoses in associated vascular and visceral injuries, absence of standardized protocols for surgical approaches and reduction-fixation strategies across different injury patterns, and ongoing controversies regarding surgical indications and optimal timing for patients combined with concomitant lumbosacral plexus injuries. Currently, no systematic clinical guidelines are available for the diagnosis and treatment of sacroiliac complex injuries both domestically and internationally. To this end, the Pelvic and Acetabular Surgery Group, Orthopedic Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care and Orthopedic Physician Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized a panel of domestic experts in the field to develop the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of sacroiliac complex injuries ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medicine and adhering to the principles of scientific rigor, clinical applicability, and innovation. These guidelines provided 11 recommendations covering diagnosis, therapeutic principles and techniques, management protocols for lumbosacral plexus injuries, outcome evaluation, and postoperative rehabilitation pathways, etc., aiming to standardize the clinical management of sacroiliac complex injuries.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical outcomesof primary reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) and revision procedure with RTSA after treatment failure of complex proximal humeral fractures in the elderly.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conductedon 24 elderly patients with Neer three- or four-part proximal humeral fractures who underwent RTSA revision after treatment failure (RTSA revision group) from January 2017 to June 2022. There were 7 males and 17 females included, with a mean age of 78.23±5.78 years (range, 67-86 years). Forty-eight patients who underwent primary RTSA (primary RTSA group) during the same time period were selected by propensity score matchingin a 1∶2 ratio as controls, based on age, dominanthand, etiology, Neer typing, glenohumeral joint dislocation, rotator cuff integrity, and osteoporosis T-score. The primary RTSA group included 12 males and 36 females, with a mean age of 76.38±6.15 years (range, 65-87 years). Clinical indicators including demographic characteristics, healing rate of the greater tuberosity, visual analogue score (VAS), Constant-Murley score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), shoulder range of motion (ROM), patient satisfaction, and complication rate were collected and analyzed.Results:The mean follow-up duration was 40(32, 60) months (range, 25-72 months) in the primary RTSA group and 38(30, 61) months (range, 24-68 months) in RTSA revision group. There was no significant difference (χ 2=5.058, P=0.168) in the healing rate of the greater tuberosity between the primary RTSA group (41/48, 85.4%) and the RTSA revision group (15/24, 62.5%). Compared with preoperative status, the ROM of anterior elevation, abduction supination, external rotation, VAS score, Constant-Murley score, and ASES score were significantly improved at the last follow-up (all P<0.05) in the RTSA revision group. The anterior elevation (123.74°± 16.57°), abduction supination (113.73°±16.42°), and external rotation (36.45°±10.36°) in the primary RTSA group were superior to those in the RTSA revision group (109.43°±18.75°, 98.64°±15.47°, 30.47°±10.64°, respectively), the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). No statistical difference of ROM of internal rotation between the two groups was found (χ 2=4.034, P=0.133). At the last follow-up, the Constant-Murley scores (75.47±11.66) and ASES scores (73.58±15.72) of the primary RTSA group were higher than those in the RTSA revision group (60.43±10.24 and 63.28±18.77, respectively), and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). In terms of VAS (1.66±0.93 vs. 2.02±1.15) and patient satisfaction [83%(40/48) vs. 88%(21/24)], no statistical difference was identified ( P>0.05). The complication rate were 10.4% (5/48) in the primary RTSA group and 20.8% (5/24) in the RTSA revision group (χ 2=1.452, P=0.285), with no serious complications requiring revision surgery in either group. Conclusions:For elderly patients with proximal humeral fractures after failed operation, RTSA revision might effectively improve the limb function and alleviatepain. However, compared with RTSA revision, primary RTSA demonstrated superiorearly clinical outcomes in shoulder ROM and functional recovery.
