The spatio-temporal heterogeneity of breast cell subsets forms the fundamental biological basis for physiological development and pathological progression, including tumorigenesis; however, its complex regulatory mechanisms are not yet fully elucidated. With its high-resolution capabilities, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) technology offers a powerful tool for dissecting this cellular heterogeneity. This technology enables the construction of high-precision breast cell atlases, the accurate identification of distinct cell subsets, and the reconstruction of differentiation trajectories from stem/progenitor cells to functional epithelial cells. By resolving the transcriptional regulatory networks that govern cell fate determination, intercellular communication patterns, and dynamic microenvironmental interactions, scRNA-seq has unveiled the molecular foundations of breast development and provided new perspectives on the pathogenesis of related diseases such as breast cancer and macromastia. Furthermore, scRNA-seq demonstrates significant potential for discovering early molecular markers of disease, deciphering tumor heterogeneity, and elucidating mechanisms of therapeutic resistance. The continued application of scRNA-seq for dissecting breast cell heterogeneity, combined with its integration with multi-modal data such as spatial omics, promises to provide critical evidence and new insights for revealing the molecular mechanisms of breast development-related diseases and for formulating precision therapeutic strategies.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the risk factors of overall postoperative complications in elderly patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgeries. METHODS: This study was conducted among a total of 1388 elderly patients, who underwent elective gastrointestinal surgeries at 17 centers across China between April, 2020 and April, 2022. The primary outcome was the incidence of postoperative complications within 30 days, including procedure-related, neuropsychiatric, respiratory, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal complications as well as acute kidney injury. Baseline characteristics, preoperative psychological and functional status, intraoperative anesthesia and surgical factors, intraoperative medication, use of nerve block, and postoperative analgesia methods were compared between the patients experiencing one or more postoperative complications and those without complications. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify the independent risk factors for postoperative complications. The relationship between postoperative acute pain and each type of complication were explored. RESULTS: The incidence of overall postoperative complications was 50.8% (705/1388) in these patients. Multivariate analysis showed that age (OR: 1.026; 95% CI: 1.006-1.046), prognostic nutritional index (OR: 0.998; 95% CI: 0.997-1.000), preoperative EuroQol-5 dimensions score (OR: 0.094; 95% CI: 0.018-0.500), blood loss (OR: 1.002; 95% CI: 1.001-1.003), and acute postoperative pain (OR: 1.308; 95% CI: 1.033-1.657) were significantly associated with the occurrence of postoperative complications. Specifically, patients experiencing severe postoperative pain had a significantly higher incidence of neuropsychiatric (27.2% vs 19.8%), procedure-related (17.3% vs 10.2%), and cardiovascular complications (3.6% vs 1.7%). CONCLUSIONS An advanced age, a low preoperative nutritional index, a poor quality of life score, a greater volume of intraoperative blood loss, and acute postoperative pain are independent risk factors for postoperative complications in elderly patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgeries. There is a significant association between acute postoperative pain and multi-system complications.

Objective To investigate the application effect of the anterolateral thigh perforator flap(ALTPF)with end-to-side anastomosis of non-primary source vessels in repairing soft tissue defects in the hands and feet.Methods Ninety-six patients with soft tissue defects in the hands and feet of the Third People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from March 2021 to June 2023 were randomly divided into two groups using a random number table method,with 48 cases in each group.The control group was treated with a conventional subcutaneous artery perforator flap,while the observation group was treated with an end-to-side anastomosis of non-primary source vessels using an ALTF.The repair indicators of tissue defects,the recovery of sensory function,the recovery of hand and foot function,and the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups at 1 month and 3 months after surgery.Results The wound healing time in the observation group and the control group was(19.35±3.89)days and(23.72±4.76)days,respectively,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the preparation time,survival rate,and stage Ⅰ healing rate of the two groups of skin flaps(P＞0.05).At 1 month and 3 months after surgery,the proportions of patients with pain sensation in the observation group and control group were 70.83％and 50.00％,respectively,and 100.00％and 79.17％,respectively.The proportions of patients with cold and hot sensation were 66.67％and 45.83％,respectively,and 97.92％and 72.92％,respectively.The distance of two-point discrimination was(30.69±6.10)mum and(34.40±7.36)mm,respectively,and(15.23±3.72)mm and(22.36±5.28)mm,respectively,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the excellent and good rate of hand and foot function between the two groups 3 months after surgery(P＞0.05).The incidence of complications in the observation group was 4.17％,which was lower than that in the control group(22.91％),and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion ALTPF repair of soft tissue defects in the hands and feet with end-to-side anastomosis of non-primary source vessels can improve wound healing rates,improve sensory function,and reduce the incidence of complications.

ObjectiveTo observe clinical effectiveness and safety of lumbar oscillatory manipulation in the treatment of patients with lumbar disc herniation. MethodsThis study recruited 90 lumbar disc herniation patients who were randomly divided into 45 cases each in the treatment group and the control group. The treatment group was given lumbar oscillatory manipulation， while the control group was given traditional lumbar obliquely pulling manipulation， and both groups were treated twice a week for 4 weeks. The Oswestry dysfunction index （ODI） score， lumbar spine mobility， and the absolute values of difference in hardness between the left and right sides of the lumbar erector spinae muscle were compared between groups of patients before treatment and after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment； the shear wave elastic modulus of multifidus muscle and abdominal muscle thickness were compared between groups before treatment and after 4 weeks of treatment； the clinical effectiveness of the treatment was compared， and the safety evaluation was carried out. ResultsCompared with the group before treatment， the ODI scores and the the absolute values of difference in hardness between the left and right sides of the lumbar erector spinae muscle decreased after 2 and 4 weeks treatment in both groups， and the mobility of the lumbar vertebrae in all directions of anterior flexion， posterior extension， left lateral flexion， and right lateral flexion increased； the shear wave elastic modulus of bilateral multifidus muscles of the fourth lumbar vertebral segments decreased， and the thickness of abdominal muscle increased after 4 weeks of treatment in both groups （P＜0.05）. Compared with the control group， the ODI score of the treatment group decreased after 2 weeks of treatment， and the shear wave elastic modulus value of bilateral multifidus muscle of the fourth lumbar vertebral segment decreased and the thickness of abdominal muscle increased after 4 weeks of treatment （P＜0.05）. The total effective rate was 90.48% （38/42） in the treatment group and 71.43% （30/42） in the control group， and the clinical effectiveness of the treatment group was better than that of the control group （P＜0.05）. No adverse events occurred in both groups during the study. ConclusionLumbar oscillatory manipulation is superior to traditional lumbar obliquely pulling manipulation in relieving symptoms of lumbar disc herniation and improving lumbar spine function， which may be related to its improvement in the elasticity of the multifidus muscle.

Multi-family therapy (MFT), as an extension of traditional family therapy, refers to a treatment method in which family members from multiple families participate at the same time. Although its application in severe mental disorders such as schizophrenia is mature, its potential in a wider field and its localization pathway need to be systematically discussed. This paper aims to summarize the development, treatment settings and requirements of the early classic model of MFT, analyze its core mechanism, focus on summarizing the emerging application model variants and effectiveness of MFT in medical care (schizophrenia, eating disorders), school education (refusing to intervene in school) and social work (treating ADHD children, traumatized families, etc.), and comprehensively explore the research methods of effect evaluation.However, there are still some limitations in the current researches, such as lax evaluation, unclear specific action pathway, family vulnerability and lack of cross-cultural adaptability research. Finally, the future development direction is prospected to provide reference for promoting the application practice of MFT.

ObjectiveTo investigate the association between estimated glucose disposal rate （eGDR） and the severity of coronary heart disease. MethodsWe conducted a hospital-based cross-sectional study that included 1258 patients （mean age： 62（53-68） years） who underwent coronary angiography for suspected coronary artery disease （53.9% were male）. Insulin resistance level （IR） was calculated according to eGDR formula： eGDR = 21.158 - （0.09 × WC） - （3.407 × hypertension） - （0.551 × HbA1c） ［hypertension （yes = 1 / no = 0）， HbA1c = HbA1c （%）］. Subjects were grouped according to the eGDR quantile. CAD severity was determined by the number of narrowed vessels： no-obstructive CAD group （all coronary stenosis were<50%， n=704）， Single-vessel CAD group （only one involved major coronary artery stenosis≥50%， n=205）， Multi-vessel CAD group （two or more involved major coronary arteries stenosis≥50%， n=349）； Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between eGDR and CAD severity. The linear relationship between eGDR and CAD in the whole range of eGDR was analyzed using restricted cubic spline. Subgroup analyses were used to assess the association between eGDR and CAD severity in different diabetic states. Receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve analysis were used to evaluate the value of eGDR in improving CAD recognition. ResultsA decrease in the eGDR index was significantly associated with an increased risk of CAD severity （OR： 2.79； 95%CI： 1.72~4.55； P<0.001）. In multivariate logistic regression models， individuals with the lowest quantile of eGDR （T1） were 2.79 times more likely to develop multi-vessel CAD than those with the highest quantile of eGDR （T3） （OR： 2.79； 95%CI： 1.72~4.55； P<0.001）. Multivariate restricted cubic spline analysis showed that eGDR was negatively associated with CAD and multi-vessel CAD （P-nonlinear>0.05）. In non-diabetic patients， compared with the reference group （T3）， the T1 group had a significantly increased risk of CAD （OR： 1.42； 95% CI： 1.00~2.01； P<0.05） and multi-vessel CAD （OR： 1.86； 95%CI： 1.21~2.86； P<0.05）. No statistical association was found between eGDR and CAD in diabetic patients. In ROC curve analysis， when eGDR was added to traditional model for CAD， significant improvements were observed in the model's recognition of CAD and multi-vessel CAD. ConclusionOur study shows eGDR levels are inversely associated with CAD and CAD severity. eGDR， as a non-insulin measure to assess IR， could be a valuable indicator of CAD severity for population.
