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.

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.

Objective To explore the impact of polymorphisms in the solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 1B1(SLCO1B1)and apolipoprotein E(APOE)genes on statins selection and prognosis in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods This retrospective study enrolled 612 patients with coronary heart disease hospitalized in Tianjin Beichen Hospital from January 2021 to February 2023.Among them,411 patients who underwent PCI were assigned to PCI group,and 201 patients who did not undergo PCI were assigned to non-PCI group.According to treatment methods,PCI group was further divided into two subgroups:observation subgroup(n=305)and control subgroup(n=106).Non-PCI group was also divided into two subgroups:observation subgroup(n=147)and control subgroup(n=54).Patients in all observation subgroups underwent the detection of SLCO1B1 and APOE gene polymorphisms before medication,and an initial individualized treatment plan(including the selection of appropriate statins and dosages)was formulated based on the detection results.Patients in control subgroups were given statins at conventional dosages.Basic data before medication,post-medication lipid compliance rates[lipid intention-to-treat(ITT)compliance rate and lipid per-protocol analysis(PP)compliance rate],time to lipid compliance,liver function indicators before and after medication,and prognosis,as well as SLCO1B1 and APOE genotyping and allele frequency distribution were compared between observation subgroup and control subgroup.Conditional logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between different genotypes and prognostic susceptibility.Multifactor dimensionality reduction(MDR)was applied to analyze the interaction between SLCO1B1 genotype and APOE genotype.Results All genotypes of SLCO1B1 and APOE genes in observation subgroups conformed to the Hardy-Weinberg genetic equilibrium test(P>0.05).Compared with control subgroups,the observation subgroups had significantly higher lipid PP compliance rates after 6 and 12 months of treatment.After 3 months of treatment,the number of completed cases and compliant cases in observation subgroups was significantly higher,and the time to lipid compliance was significantly shorter than that in control subgroups(P<0.05).Compared with before treatment,there were no significant changes in alanine aminotransferase(ALT)and creatine kinase isoenzyme(CK-MB)levels in either observation subgroups or control subgroups(P>0.05);the levels of total cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)were significantly decreased(P<0.001),while high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)level was significantly increased(P<0.01).After 12 months of treatment,the aspartate aminotransferase(AST)level in observation subgroups was significantly lower than that before medication and also lower than that in the corresponding control subgroups(P<0.05).Within PCI group:there were 1 case and 5 cases of myocardial infarction,2 cases and 6 cases of target vessel revascularization,0 cases and 3 cases of stroke,0 cases and 7 cases of recurrent angina pectoris,1 case and 5 cases of readmission in observation subgroup and control subgroup,respectively.There were statistically significant differences between observation subgroup and control subgroup(P<0.05).Within non-PCI group:there were 0 cases and 3 cases of cardiogenic death,2 cases and 6 cases of myocardial infarction,2 cases and 5 cases of target vessel revascularization,0 cases and 4 cases of stroke,0 cases and 8 cases of recurrent angina pectoris,and 2 cases and 4 cases of readmission in observation subgroup and control subgroups,respectively,with statistically significant differences between the two subgroups(P<0.05).In the recessive model,SLCO1B1 and APOE genes were significantly correlated with prognosis in both PCI observation subgroup and non-PCI observation subgroup(P<0.05).MDR analysis of the interaction between SLCO1B1 genotype and APOE genotype in PCI observation subgroup and non-PCI observation subgroup showed that there was a significant interaction between the genotypes,which was closely related to prognosis(P<0.05).Conclusion Individualized statin treatment regimens based on the detection of SLCO1B1 and APOE gene polymorphisms can improve the lipid compliance rate,shorten the time to lipid compliance,and improve the prognosis of patients after PCI.

Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease has become a common chronic liver disease with changes in lifestyle and the increasing prevalence rate of overweight and obesity in adults and even children. The liver synthesizes bile acids via cholesterol metabolism, which are important signaling molecules that modulate and regulate host glucose, lipid metabolism, and immunity. Abnormal bile acid metabolism closely correlates with the occurrence and progression of metabolic-associated fatty liver disease. This article systematically organizes the research of bile acid metabolism in children and adults with metabolic-associated fatty liver disease from the perspective of analyzing bile acid profiles by mass spectrometry detection, and compares the characteristics of bile acid metabolic disorders across different age groups and different developmental stages of disease so as to provide a reference for subsequent research.
