Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the ratio of C-reactive protein(CRP)/preal-bumin(PAB)and severity of illness and onset in patients with primary knee osteoarthritis(KOA).Methods A total of 102 patients with primary KOA admitted to a hospital from October 2018 to October 2023 were selected as the study group,and 100 healthy people in a hospital during the same period were select-ed as the control group.According to the Kelgren-Lawrence(K-L)grading criteria,102 patients with primary KOA were divided into K-L grade Ⅰ group(n=21),K-L grade Ⅱ group(n=27),K-L grade Ⅲ group(n=34),and K-L grade Ⅳ group(n=20).The levels of CRP and PAB were measured by automatic biochemical analyzer,and the ratio of CRP/PAB was calculated.The predictive value of CRP,PAB and CRP/PAB ratio to the incidence of primary KOA was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve,and the influencing fac-tors of the incidence of primary KOA patients were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression.Results There were significant differences in CRP,PAB and CRP/PAB ratio among primary KOA patients with different K-L grades(P＜0.05).The total score of Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoar-thritis Index(WOMAC)for primary KOA patients from K-L group Ⅰ to K-L group Ⅳ were(40.91±5.18),(46.08±9.21),(51.24±7.46),(65.83±12.93)points,respectively.The difference was statistically signifi-cant(P＜0.05).In patients with primary KOA,CRP and CRP/PAB ratio were positively correlated with K-L grade and WOMAC total score,while PAB was negatively correlated with K-L grade and WOMAC total score(P＜0.05).CRP and CRP/PAB ratio in study group were higher than those in control group,and PAB level was lower than those in control group,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)and 95％CI of CRP and PAB levels were 0.781(0.736-0.831)and 0.853(0.781-0.876),respectively,and the AUC of CRP/PAB ratio was 0.937(0.892-0.987).Conclusion CRP and CRP/PAB ratio are highly expressed in patients with primary KOA,and PAB is low expressed in patients with pri-mary KOA,which is related to the severity of illness and onset in patients,and can be used as a potential marker to predict the severity of illness and onset in patients with primary KOA.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)has become the most important cause of chronic liver disease,and its pathogenic mechanism is very complex.microRNA(miRNA)are widely distributed non-cod-ing RNA.miRNA play an important regulatory role in the pathogenesis and progression of various chronic liv-er diseases,including NAFLD,and may even be used as diagnostic indicators or even therapeutic targets for liver diseases.As a non-invasive biological indicator,a large number of research data show that miRNA has important clinical value in the diagnosis and prognosis of NAFLD.This article provides a review of the re-search progress related to the pathogenic mechanism and clinical diagnostic value of miRNA in NAFLD.

OBJECTIVETo establish an accurate, fast and simple screening method for AZF microdeletions using capillary technology and use it for clinical testing.

METHODSFor each pair of primers, the 5' end of either forward or reverse primer was labeled with a FAM, JOE or TAMRA fluorescence dyes to establish multiplex quantitative fluorescence PCR systems for the establishment of a screening method of Y chromosome AZF microdeletions by capillary technology. The detection of Y chromosome AZF microdeletion was carried out on 725 cases of non-obstructive azoospermia, oligospermia or asthenospermia.

RESULTSA screening method for Y chromosome AZF microdeletions using capillary technology was established. Thirty eight cases of AZF microdeletions were found among 725 cases of non-obstructive azoospermia, oligospermia or asthenospermia, which gave a deletion rate of 5.24%. Y chromosomal microdeletions were found in 8.62% of the azoospermia group, 6.75% of the oligozoospermic group, and 2.23% of the asthenospermia group.

CONCLUSIONAn accurate, fast and simple screening method of Y chromosome AZF microdeletions by capillary technology has been established, which may have an important clinical value.

BACKGROUND:Posterior cervical open-door expansive laminoplasty is one of the simple and effective methods to treat cervical spinal diseases, has satisfactory results but low complications. However, the imbalance of sagittal plan, loss of lordosis or axial pain is often reported recently. OBJECTVE:To analyze the correlation between cervical sagittal alignment and clinical outcomes after laminoplasty. METHODS:Between January 2011 and June 2015, 122 cases of cervical spinal disease, who were treated with open-door expansive laminoplasty with mini-titanium plate, were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical outcomes were evaluated by Japanese Orthopaedic Association, Neck Disability Index and Visual Analogue Scale. Radiographic results were assessed by C2-7 Cobb angle, C2-7 sagittal vertical axis and C7 slope. The correlation between sagittal alignment and clinical outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Al patients were fol owed up for 7-32 months. (2) Japanese Orthopaedic Association, Neck Disability Index and Visual Analogue Scale scores were improved in the final fol ow-up (al P<0.001). No significant difference in upper limb Visual Analogue Scale scores was determined (P=0.142). In the final fol ow-up, C2-7 sagittal vertical axis increased (P=0.036), but neither the C2-7 Cobb angle nor the C7 slope significantly changed (P=0.092, P=0.184). (3) There were no correlations between sagittal alignment parameters (C2-7 Cobb angle, C2-7 sagittal vertical axis and C7 slope) and clinical outcomes (Japanese Orthopaedic Association, Neck Disability Index and Visual Analogue Scale) (al P>0.05). (4) These findings indicated that posterior cervical open-door expansive laminoplasty with mini-titanium plate can significantly improve the neurological function of patients. However, there is no correlation between cervical sagittal alignment and clinical outcomes.
