Objective To investigate the efficacy of subcutaneous flap and/or pedicled penile skin flap combined with advancement flap coverage technique in the treatment of urethrocutaneous fistula(UCF)secondary to failed repair and to improve the success rate. Methods The clinical data of 36 UCF patients after urethral repair admitted to our hospital during Jan. 2020 and Jan. 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the location and surrounding condition of the fistula, the fistula was closed without tension, the subcutaneous flap and/or pedicled penile skin flap was combined with advancement flap coverage technique. The effects of the treatment were followed up. Successful repair was defined as unobstructed urination, no recurrence of fistula and no urethral stricture. Results The patients' age was(25.7±11.6)years, and the diameter of fistula was(8.1±2.2)mm. UCF occurred in 24 cases after hypospadias repair, and in 12 cases after the repair of other urethral injuries, including 2 cases of urethral compression injury after improper indwelling catheterization, 2 cases of urethral stone removal, 2 cases of urethral diverticulum repair, 2 cases of circumcision repair, 1 case of congenital anal atresia repair, and 3 cases of other urethral repair. The primary repair success rate was 83.3%(30/36). Among the 6 patients with unsuccessful primary repair, 3 were cured with a secondary repair, 1 was cured after wound dressing, and 2 were lost to follow-up. The primary repair success rates of penile shape, penile scrotal junction, and perineal urethral skin fistulas were 82.1%(23/28), 83.3%(5/6), and 100%(2/2), respectively. The primary repair success rates for fistulas with diameter ≤1.0 cm and>1.0 cm were 85.2%(23/27)and 77.8%(7/9), respectively; for single and two urethrocutaneous fistulas, the success rates were 84.8%(28/33)and 66.7%(2/3); for patients with 1 and ≥2 previous repair attempts, the success rates were 87.5%(14/16)and 80.0%(16/20). During the follow-up of(15.1±3.5)months, no recurrence of fistula occurred, and all patients experienced unobstructed urination with a maximum urinary flow rate of(19.5±4.2)mL/s. Conclusion The failure rate of UCF repair is still high. Based on the location of the fistulas and the condition of the surrounding tissue, the surgical success rate can be improved by utilizing subcutaneous flap and/or pedicled penile skin flap combined with advancement flap coverage technique. This approach allows for tension-free suturing and multi-layer closure of the fistula.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the current status of informatization tools applied to antimicrobial stewardship in county hospitals in China, and to provide a reference for promoting the informatization development of antimicrobial stewardship in county hospitals.METHODS From August to September 2025, an online questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 007 county hospitals across 31 provinces(autonomous regions, and municipalities) in China. The survey focused on the application of four types of informatization tools:the real-time monitoring system for antimicrobial use, the pre-prescription review system, the irrational use warning system, and the electronic prescription evaluation system(hereinafter referred to as the “monitoring system”“review system”“warning system”“evaluation system”,respectively). Correlation analysis and binary Logistic regression analysis were employed to explore the influencing factors.RESULTS Of the county hospitals, 80.83% were equipped with at least one type of informatization tool for antimicrobial stewardship, while 19.17% had no relevant tool. Only 18.87% of the hospitals were equipped with all four types of tools. The monitoring system exhibited the highest equipped rate (70.80%), whereas the warning system was equipped in only 33.96% of the hospitals. Four types of tools are evenly and adequately deployed in the eastern region, the central and western regions have far lower deployment rates of intervention tools including review system and warning system, accompanied by prominent intra-provincial gaps. The total number of the health technicians, hospital grade, and prescription review rate of outpatient antibacterial drug were significantly and positively correlated with the deployment rates of the four informatization tools ( P <0.05). The results of the Logistic regression model fitting indicated that the model of the review system was rated “excellent” [area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC)=0.81], and the model of the warning system was rated “further improvement” (AUC=0.67). The total number of health technicians was significantly positively correlated with the deployment rates of all four types of informatization tools (all P <0.05).CONCLUSIONS The informatization of antimicrobial stewardship in county hospitals in China remains in the initial stage of transitioning from “passive statistics” to “active prevention and control”, with challenges such as structural imbalance and regional disparities. In the future, differentiated support strategies should be implemented, the allocation of resources should be optimized, to enhance the level of refined antimicrobial stewardship.

The compilation explanation for the Expert Consensus on Clinical Application of Ruyi Zhenbao pills systematically expounds the formulation methods and evidence-based basis of this consensus. In response to the weak clinical application evidence and ambiguous indications of Ruyi Zhenbao pills, the Institute of Basic Research in Clinical Medicine of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Wangjing Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, and Dongzhimen Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine invited 39 experts from 31 medical institutions across China to complete the compilation through multi-disciplinary collaboration. The compilation strictly adheres to the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines for guideline development and the GRADE evidence grading system. The work process covered the construction of clinical questions (a total of 30 clinical questions were determined based on expert voting results), evidence retrieval (covering Chinese and English databases and gray literature), safety assessment (integrating drug monitoring data and clinical research), and the formation of recommendation opinions and consensus suggestions (18 recommendation opinions were reached through the GRADE grid method, and 22 consensus suggestions were reached through majority voting rules). The results show that the consensus clearly states that this medicine is suitable for knee osteoarthritis, gouty arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, neuropathic pain, and sequelae of stroke. In terms of safety, the adverse reactions are mainly gastrointestinal reactions such as nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Pregnant women and those allergic to the ingredients of this medicine are contraindicated. The compilation process underwent three rounds of expert reviews and adopted methods such as nominal group technique and Delphi method to ensure the rigor of the consensus compilation process. It provides a paradigm for the formulation of expert consensus on clinical application of Tibetan medicine through the academic promotion and dynamic revision.

Objective To understand the distribution, species composition, seasonal fluctuations, and presence of Dabie bandavirus in ticks in Tai'an City, providing a basis for assessing tick-borne disease risks and formulating prevention strategies. Methods Free-living ticks were monitored using the flagging method, whereas parasitic ticks were monitored through host surface examination. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the presence of Bandavirus dabieense in tick specimens. Results The density of free-living ticks in Tai'an City showed a continuous decreasing trend over the 3 years from 2021 to 2023, with an average tick density of 0.43 ticks/(flag·100 m). The dominant habitats were scenic areas and forests, and the seasonal fluctuations exhibited a bimodal pattern, peaking in March and August. The only free-living tick species captured was Haemaphysalis longicornis. Over the 3 years, the average tick index for parasitic ticks was 1.85, with sheep as the primary host. Seasonal fluctuations also followed a bimodal pattern, peaking in March and August. The primary parasitic tick species captured were H. longicornis and Rhipicephalus sanguineus. No Dabie bandavirus was detected in the tick specimens. Conclusions Tick density in Tai'an City remains relatively high, necessitating continued efforts to enhance tick surveillance and implement targeted prevention measures in rural environments to further reduce the health risks posed by tick-borne diseases.

BACKGROUND:Spinal canal decompression using uniportal endoscopic surgery is a new minimally invasive surgery in the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis.However,this technique needs a steep learning curve and high requirements for surgical equipment and instruments,which limits its clinical application.We previously use the spinal endoscopy as a monitoring endoscopy and combined with unilateral biportal endoscopy to propose a hybrid technique of spinal endoscopy to achieve coaxial endoscopic operation and hands-separate operation. OBJECTIVE:To compare the clinical outcome of hybrid technique and uniportal endoscopic surgery in treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis with bilateral lower limb pain symptoms. METHODS:Ninety patients diagnosed of lumbar spinal stenosis with bilateral symptoms were included and retrospectively analyzed at First People's Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University from August 2020 to August 2022.44 cases were included in group A(hybrid technique group),while 46 cases were included in group B(uniportal endoscopic surgery).The nerve decompression was observed during the surgery.Operation time,hospital stay time,and expenses were recorded in both groups.The visual analog scale scores of lower back pain and both lower extremities pain,Oswestry disability index scores of quality of life and excellent and good rate of modified Macnab criteria were recorded and compared at preoperative,postoperative 3 days,and postoperative 3 and 6 months. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The operation time of group A was significantly shorter than that of group B(P<0.05).(2)The lower back pain and lower extremity pain of the severe side at postoperative 3 days,and 3 and 6 months were significantly relieved in both groups(P<0.05).The visual analog scale score of lower extremity pain on the mild side was significantly decreased at postoperative 3 days,3 and 6 months than preoperative score in the group A(P<0.05).The visual analog scale score of lower extremity pain on the mild side was significantly decreased at postoperative 3 days than preoperative score in the group B(P<0.05).The visual analog scale scores of lower extremity pain on the mild side at postoperative 3 and 6 months did not show significant difference than preoperative score in the group B.The comparison between the two groups showed that there was no significant difference in the visual analog scale scores of postoperative lower back pain and lower extremity pain of the severe side(P>0.05).The visual analog scale scores of lower extremity pain on the mild side in the group A were significantly lower than those of group B at postoperative 3 and 6 months(P<0.05).(3)The Oswestry disability index scores of both groups at postoperative 3 day were significantly lower than preoperative score(P<0.05),and there was no significant difference between the two groups 3 days after operation.Oswestry disability index scores of group A at postoperative 3 and 6 months were significantly decreased than preoperative score(P<0.05).The Oswestry disability index scores of group B at postoperative 3 and 6 months did not show significant differences than preoperative score(P>0.05).The comparison between the two groups showed the Oswestry disability index scores of group A were significantly lower than group B at postoperative 3 and 6 months(P<0.05).(4)The results of modified Macnab showed that the excellent and good rate of group A was significantly higher than that of group B(95%,78%,P<0.05).(5)It is indicated that the hybrid technique is a new spinal endoscopy technique,which has the advantages of less trauma and faster recovery as a minimally invasive surgery.The clinical outcome of hybrid technique is superior to that of uniportal endoscopic surgery in the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis with bilateral symptoms.Additionally,it also has the advantages of good operational flexibility and high decompression efficiency as an open surgery.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) offers a rich theoretical foundation and clinical experience for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome(CKM), demonstrating unique advantage. Building on previous work in managing diabetes, its complications, and chronic kidney disease, our team has proposed a five-phase evolution theory of "constraint, heat, deficiency, stasis, and toxin" as the core pathogenesis. These phases correspond to the pathological progression of constraint of phlegm-dampness, constraint transforming into heat, heat damaging qi and yin, stasis accumulated in the collateral vessels, and toxin induced by deficiency and stasis. In the prevention and treatment of CKM by TCM, it is emphasized to integrate the concept of "treating disease before it arises" with constitution theory, and incorporate the "2-5-8" prevention and treatment strategy, which combines prevention with treatment, tailors interventions to different phases, and employs comprehensive treatment modalities. Our goal is to leverage TCM's holistic advantages in preventing and treating CKM.

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.

Sinomenine hydrochloride is an alkaloid preparation commonly used in clinical practice in traditional Chinese medicine, and allergic reactions induced by occupational exposure to it are relatively rare in clinical settings. This article analyzes a case of allergic contact dermatitis in a medical worker after occupational exposure to sinomenine hydrochloride. The patient developed generalized skin rashes with the fingertips as the initial site three months after exposure to sinomenine hydrochloride. The treatment effect was poor without cessation of exposure, while symptoms significantly improved after cessation. The condition persisted, exhibiting a contact-reaction pattern of recurrence upon re-exposure. The serum total IgE level met the criteria for extremely severe allergy. No similar symptoms were observed among colleagues in the same position. After differential diagnosis, the possibility of dermatomyositis was ruled out, and the patient was diagnosed with occupational allergic contact dermatitis.

Objective To investigate the relationships of serum microRNA-9-3p(miR-9-3p),microRNA-27b-3p(miR-27b-3p),with brain glioma(BG)grading and their impacts on prognosis.Methods A total of 172 BG patients admitted in Suqian Hospital of Jiangsu Provincial People's Hos-pital from May 2020 to May 2023 were enrolled and divided into high-grade group(grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ,n=101)and low-grade group(grade Ⅰ to Ⅱ,n=71)according to the World Health Organization(WHO)classification of central nervous system tumors.Additionally,85 healthy individuals of the same age range during the same period were selected as control group.General information,serum levels of miR-9-3p,and miR-27b-3p were compared among the three groups.The correlations of pre-treatment serum levels of miR-9-3p and miR-27b-3p with BG grading were analyzed.The prognosis of BG patients one year after treatment was recorded,and clinical data were compared between the poor prognosis group and the good prognosis group.Factors influencing poor prognosis in BG patients as well as the value of pretreatment serum miR-9-3p and miR-27b-3p in predicting poor prognosis were analyzed.Conventional factors influencing poor prognosis were used to establish a conventional prediction mod-el,and model combined with pretreatment serum miR-9-3p and miR-27b-3p levels was used as a new prediction model.The value of these two models in predicting poor prognosis in BG patients was compared.Results Before treatment,serum levels of miR-9-3p and miR-27b-3p were lower in the high-grade group than those in the low-grade and control groups,and lower in the low-grade group than those in the control group(P<0.05).Correlation analysis showed that pretreatment serum levels of miR-9-3p and miR-27b-3p were negatively correlated with BG grading(r=-0.573,P<0.001;r=-0.498,P<0.001),and serum miR-9-3p level was positively correlated with miR-27b-3p level in BG patients(r=0.509,P<0.05).Before treatment,the poor prognosis group had a higher proportion of patients with WHO grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ,low differentiation,Karnofsky Performance Scale(KPS)<70,and higher serum interleukin-17(IL-17)levels compared to the good prognosis group,while serum levels of miR-9-3p and miR-27b-3p were lower(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that pretreatment WHO grading,differentiation,KPS,serum IL-17,miR-9-3p,and miR-27b-3p levels were all influencing factors of poor prognosis in BG patients(P<0.05).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves showed that the areas under the curve(AUCs)for pretreatment serum miR-9-3p and miR-27b-3p alone in predicting poor prognosis in BG patients were 0.714 and 0.720,respectively,with no statistically significant difference(Z=0.086,P=0.413).The AUC of the conventional prediction model for predicting poor prognosis in BG patients was 0.829,and the AUC of the new prediction model was 0.926(P<0.05).Conclusion Serum levels of miR-9-3p and miR-27b-3p are negatively correlated with BG grading and are factors influ-encing poor prognosis,demonstrating certain value in predicting poor prognosis.
