Objective To establish a method for simultaneous determination of four high-molecular-weight thiol derivatives (TDs) in workplace air by gas chromatography. Methods The four kinds of vapor-phase macromolecular TDs (1-pentanethiol, 1-hexanethiol, 1-benzyl mercaptan, and n-octanethiol) in the workplace air were collected using the GDH-1 air sampling tubes, desorbed with anhydrous ethanol, separated on a DB-FFAP capillary column, and determined by flame ionization detector. Results The quantitation range of the four TDs was 0.30-207.37 mg/L, with the correlation coefficients greater than 0.999 00. The minimum detection mass concentrations and minimum quantitation mass concentrations were 0.18-0.32 and 0.60-1.05 mg/m³, respectively (both calculated based on the 1.5 L sample and 3.0 mL desorption solvent). The mean desorption efficiencies ranged from 87.07% to 103.59%. The within-run and between-run relative standard deviations were 1.92%-8.22% and 1.89%-8.45%, respectively. The samples can be stored at room temperature or 4 ℃ for three days and up to 7 days at -18 ℃. Conclusion This method is suitable for the simultaneous determination of four vapor-phase TDs in workplace air.

INTRODUCTION: Lecanemab has shown promise in treating early Alzheimer's disease (AD), but its safety and efficacy in Chinese populations remain unexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and 6-month clinical outcomes of lecanemab in Chinese patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild AD. METHODS: In this single-arm, real-world study, participants with MCI due to AD or mild AD received biweekly intravenous lecanemab (10 mg/kg). The study was conducted at Hainan Branch, Ruijin Hospital Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. Patient enrollment and baseline assessments commenced in November 2023. Safety assessments included monitoring for amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) and other adverse events. Clinical and biomarker changes from baseline to 6 months were evaluated using cognitive scales (mini-mental state examination [MMSE], montreal cognitive assessment [MoCA], clinical dementia rating-sum of boxes [CDR-SB]), plasma biomarker analysis, and advanced neuroimaging. RESULTS: A total of 64 patients were enrolled in this ongoing real-world study. Safety analysis revealed predominantly mild adverse events, with infusion-related reactions (20.3%, 13/64) being the most common. Of these, 69.2% (9/13) occurred during the initial infusion and 84.6% (11/13) did not recur. ARIA-H (microhemorrhages/superficial siderosis) and ARIA-E (edema/effusion) were observed in 9.4% (6/64) and 3.1% (2/64) of participants, respectively, with only two symptomatic cases (one ARIA-E presenting with headache and one ARIA-H with visual disturbances). After 6 months of treatment, cognitive scores remained stable compared to baseline (MMSE: 22.33 ± 5.58 vs . 21.27 ± 4.30, P = 0.733; MoCA: 16.38 ± 6.67 vs . 15.90 ± 4.78, P = 0.785; CDR-SB: 2.30 ± 1.65 vs . 3.16 ± 1.72, P = 0.357), while significantly increasing plasma amyloid-β 42 (Aβ42) (+21.42%) and Aβ40 (+23.53%) levels compared to baseline. CONCLUSIONS: Lecanemab demonstrated a favorable safety profile in Chinese patients with early AD. Cognitive stability and biomarker changes over 6 months suggest potential efficacy, though high dropout rates and absence of a control group warrant cautious interpretation. These findings provide preliminary real-world evidence for lecanemab's use in China, supporting further investigation in larger controlled studies. REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov , NCT07034222.

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.

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.

Acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fracture (ASOTLF) can lead to chronic low back pain, kyphosis deformity, pulmonary dysfunction, loss of mobility, and even life-threatening complications. Vertebral augmentation is currently the mainstream treatment method for this condition. In 2019, the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma and the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association collaboratively led the development of Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation for acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures. Six years later, with advances in clinical diagnosis and treatment techniques as well as accumulating evidence in related fields, the 2019 guideline requires updating. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, the Spinal Health Professional Committee of China Human Health Science and Technology Promotion Association, and the Minimally Invasive Orthopedics Professional Committee of Shaanxi Medical Doctor Association have organized experts in the field to develop the Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation of acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025) , based on the latest evidence-based medical researches. This guideline incorporates 3 recommendations retained from the 2019 version with updated strength of evidence, along with 12 new recommendations. It provides recommendations from six aspects of diagnosis, pain management, treatment option selection, prevention of postoperative complications, anti-osteoporosis therapy, and postoperative rehabilitation, aiming to provide a reference for standard treatment of vertebral augmentation for ASOTLF in hospitals at all levels.

With the establishment of bio-psycho-social medical model,both social and psychological factors play an important role in the occurrence,development and treatment of diseases.Hypertension is a common chronic multiple disease in China,and patients are often complicated with depression and other e-motional disorders.The interaction between hypertension and depression significantly increases the risk of poor prognosis.Current studies have shown a bidirectional promoting relationship between hypertension and depression,and they have some com-mon pathogenesis.However,the specific mechanism of their co-morbidity has not been fully elucidated.Renin-angiotensin sys-tem(RAS)plays an important role in the regulation of hyperten-sion and depression and other emotions.It is composed of two antagonistic pathways.The balance is maintained by angioten-sin-converting enzyme 2(ACE2).Therefore,this article reviews the relationship and mechanism of RAS in hypertension,depres-sion and comorbid states,in order to provide new treatment ide-as for hypertension and depression.

Objective:To investigate the effect of Knowledge-Attitude-Practice and Health Belief Model(KAP-HBM)combined with evidence-based intervention mode on cardiopulmonary function,coagulation function,quali-ty of life and adverse events in patients with acute heart failure(AHF)during rehabilitation.Methods:This ran-domized controlled study enrolled 110 AHF patients admitted in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Chinese PLA Air Force Military Medical University between February 2020 and March 2023.They were divided into control group(n=55,single evidence-based intervention)and intervention group(n=55,additional KAP-HBM intervention).After 1-month intervention,cardiopulmonary function,coagulation function,quality of life and incidence of ad-verse events were compared between two groups.Results:After 1-month intervention,compared with patients in control group,those in intervention group had significant lower interventricular septal thickness(IVST)[(9.34±0.14)mm vs.(10.28±0.28)mm],left ventricular end-systolic volume index(LVESVI)[(35.47±1.16)ml/m2 vs.(39.81±1.87)ml/m2],left ventricular end-diastolic volume index(LVED VI)[(45.30±1.29)ml/m2 vs.(56.69±2.25)ml/m2],D dimer(D-D)[(365.56±25.38)g/L vs.(491.16±25.86)g/L],fibrinogen(Fg)[(2.79±0.37)mg/dl vs.(3.85±0.51)mg/dl]and score of Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire(MLHFQ)[(34.32±2.59)points vs.(39.64±3.18)points],and significant higher forced vital capacity(FVC)[(2.55±0.14)L vs.(2.18±0.22)L],forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV1)[(3.38±0.14)L vs.(2.63±0.14)L],FEV1/FVC[(1.49±0.07)vs.(1.22±0.09)]and prothrombin time(PT)[(16.90±2.96)s vs.(14.10±3.37)s](P＜0.001 all).Intervention group had significant lower incidence of adverse events com-paring to control group(3.64％vs.18.18％,P=0.014).Conclusion:KAP-HBM combined evidence-based intervention mode could significantly improve the cardiopulmonary function,coagulation function and quality of life in AHF patients with high safety.

With the rapid development of the Internet,the problem of internet gaming disorder(IGD)among adolescents has gradually become prominent.IGD has caused serious harm to their physical and mental health,and it is difficult to withdraw and treat.In 2019,the World Health Organization(WHO)officially listed Gaming Disorder(GD)in the diagnostic category and included it in the 11th edition of the International Classification of Diseases.In China,the number of adolescent internet users has approached 200 million,and the number of IGD patients is relatively large.It is urgent to make breakthroughs in the cognition and treatment of IGD.Domestic and foreign studies have shown that IGD's physical and psychological harm to adolescents is related to the abnormal activation and functional connection damage of structures such as the prefrontal lobe,limbic system,and striatum,which in turn causes neurocognitive disorders,executive dysfunction,difficulty in emotional regulation,abnormal reward and punishment feedback,behavioral abnormalities and other functional disorders;therefore,this article aims to systematically review the research literature on IGD in recent years,and use neurophysiological imaging research method to sort out the changes in the brain structure and function of adolescents with IGD,in order to improve the understanding of the pathophysiology of the disease,and assist in further clinical diagnosis,treatment,application and research design.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the anterior ethmoidal artery(AEA)and anatomical variations of the anterior cranial base,and to analyze the predictive factors for AEA suspension.Methods Sinus CT imaging data of 159 patients undergoing endoscopic sinus sur-gery(ESS)were retrospectively analyzed.Mimics 21.0 software was utilized for three-dimensional reconstruction,measuring parameters of AEA and anterior cranial base anatomy and performing classi-fication.Pearson and Spearman correlation analyses were used to evaluate the correlations among vari-ous anatomical parameters and their classifications.Multivariate binary logistic regression analysis was performed to screen for independentpredictive factors of AEA suspension.Results The rates of AEA suspension differed significantly across different Keros classifications(P＜0.001),with an increase rate as the Keros classification level increased(P＜0.001).The transverse diameter,height and vol-ume of supraorbital ethmoid cells(SOEC),olfactory fossa depth,lateral lamella of the cribriform plate(LLCP)length and frontal sinus pneumatization classification grade were positively correlated with the distance from AEA to the cranial base(P＜0.05).Multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis showed that the presence of SOEC(OR=4.178,95％CI,2.517 to 6.935,P＜0.001),in-creased olfactory fossa depth(OR=1.433,95％CI,1.197 to 1.715,P＜0.001),and higher frontal sinus pneumatization classification grade(OR=1.621,95％CI,1.121 to 2.345,P=0.01)were independent predictive factors for AEA suspension.Conclusion Detailed preoperative CT imaging assessment,especially the analysis of SOEC,olfactory fossa depth and frontal sinus pneumatization classification,aids in accurately assessing the anatomical position of AEA,thereby effectively reduc-ing the risk of AEA injury,and improving the safety and success rate of surgery.

Objective To assess the prevalence and clinical features of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)and its risk factors in patients with CHF,so as to provide the reference for early identification of NAFLD.Methods The data from 1120 CHF patients aged 14～89 was collected,including the general demographic information(age,gender,smoking status,height,weight,BMI,etc.),clinical diagnosis and treatment data(blood pressure,NYHA heart function classification,blood biochemical indicators,etc.),and medication use status.SPSS 27.0 was applied to analyze the clinical characteristics of CHF combined with NAFLD,and binary multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors of CHF combined with NAFLD.Results Among the 1120 patients,634(56.6%)were male and 486(43.4%)were female.The prevalence of CHF patients with NAFLD was 25.0%.The results of univariate analysis showed that the weight of NAFLD patients BMI,systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,FPG,UA,left room expansion ratio,ALT,CHO,TG,obesity rate,hyperuricemia rate and β-blocker usage rate were all higher than those of non NAFLD patients.The age,BNP,HDL and ACEI/ARB/ARNI usage rate of NAFLD patients were lower than those of non NAFLD patients(all P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that age(OR=0.988),FPG(OR=1.099),overweight(OR=3.497)and obesity(OR=9.193)were independent risk factors for CHF patients with NAFLD.Conclusion NAFLD may be a common complication in CHF patients,especially those who are young,have high FPG,overweight and obese.In the clinical practice,NAFLD screening,evaluation and management should be focused on CHF patients who are young,have high fasting blood sugar,overweight,and obese.
