Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

MethodsThe volatile components of the samples before and after processing were identified and relatively quantified by headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（HS-GC-MS）， and the volatile components were analyzed by principal component analysis（PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA）. According to the principle of variable importance in the projection（VIP） value>1.5， volatile differential components before and after processing were screened. And combined with intelligent sensory technologies such as colorimeter and electronic nose， the chroma and odor information of CRP before and after being stir-fried with Halloysitum Rubrum were identified. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between volatile differential components and chroma values. ResultsA total of 112 volatile components were identified from CRP and CRP stir-fried with Halloysitum Rubrum， of which 84 were from CRP and 97 were from CRP stir-fried with Halloysitum Rubrum. And 7 differential components were selected， including α-pinene， β-myrcene， linalool， sabinene， ocimene isomer mixture， A-ocimene， and δ-elemene. After being processed with Halloysitum Rubrum， the brightness value（L^*）， yellow-blue value（b^*） and total chromatic value（E^*_ab） of CRP were decreased（P<0.01）， and red-green value（a^*） was increased（P<0.01）， the response values of S4， S5， S10 and S13 sensors were significantly increased（P<0.05）， and the response values of S3 and S8 sensors were significantly decreased（P<0.05）. Correlation analysis showed that α-pinene and β-myrcene were negatively correlated with L^* and E^*_ab， but positively correlated with a^*. Sabinene was positively correlated with L^* and E^*_ab. Linalool was positively correlated with L^* and E^*_ab， and negatively correlated with a^*. The ocimene isomer mixture was positively correlated with the L^*. ConclusionAfter being processed with Halloysitum Rubrum， the appearance color， odor and volatile components of CRP change significantly， and α-pinene， β-myrcene， sabinene， linalool and A-ocimene are the characteristic volatile components before and after processing， which can provide references for the quality evaluation and clinical application of CRP and its processed products.

Objective To explore the predictive value of automated breast ultrasound(ABUS)features combined with Ki-67 in predicting pathological complete response(pCR)after neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC)in triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 127 female TNBC patients treated at Xijing Hospital,Air Force Medical University from March 2019 to December 2023.All patients underwent NAC and surgical treatment after ABUS examination.Based on postoperative pathological results,patients were divided into pCR group(n=60)and non-pathological complete response(npCR)group(n=67).Differences in various parameters before NAC were compared between the two groups.LASSO regression was used to identify independent factors influencing pCR after NAC in TNBC patients,and a predictive model was constructed using multivariate logistic regression.The prediction model was internally validated using the Bootstrap method(1000 resamples).The discriminative ability of the model was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,and the area under the curves(AUCs)of different prediction models were compared using De-long's test.The accuracy of the model was assessed using calibration curves,and the clinical benefit of the model was evaluated using clinical decision curve analysis(DCA).Results Significant differences were observed between two groups in terms of age,Ki-67,menopausal status,tumor type,posterior echo,coronal plane convergence sign,coronal plane skip sign,and coronal plane white wall sign before NAC(P<0.05).LASSO regression analysis showed that Ki-67,coronal plane convergence sign,and coronal plane white wall sign were independent influencing factors of pCR after NAC in TNBC patients(P<0.05).The AUC of the multivariate logistic regression model based on Ki-67 was 0.733(95%CI 0.646-0.819),the AUC of ABUS model was 0.777(95%CI 0.695-0.858),and the AUC of ABUS combined with Ki-67 model was 0.816(95%CI 0.741-0.890).De-long's test showed that the AUC of the combined model was higher than those of ABUS feature model and Ki-67 model,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the AUC between ABUS feature model and Ki-67 model(P=0.40).Hosmer-Lemeshow test indicated that the combined model had a good fit(P=0.304).Internal validation results showed that the combined model had a good stability with a consistency index(C-index)of 0.820(95%CI 0.726-0.879).The calibration curve demonstrated good consistency between the predicted and actual probabilities of the combined prediction model,and the DCA curve indicated that the model had favorable clinical benefit.Conclusion The combined ABUS feature and Ki-67 model can be used to predict the probability of pCR after NAC in TNBC patients,providing a reference for the formulation of clinical treatment plans in TNBC patients.

Objective To analyze the effect of sodium cantharidinate and vitamin B6 injection(SCV)on four human hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)cell lines(SMMC-7721,Bel-7402,Huh7,and HepG2)and explore its mechanism.Methods Normal hepatic cell line L02 was treated with SCV at concentrations of 0 μmol/L(control),0.5,1,2,4,8,16,and 32 μmol/L,and the cytotoxicity of SCV on L02 cells was detected using CCK-8 assay.Human HCC cell lines(SMMC-7721,Bel-7402,Huh7,and HepG2)were cultured.SCV-untreated control group(0 μmol/L)and 2,4,and 8 μmol/L SCV-treated groups were set up.CCK-8 assay,plate cloning formation assay,Transwell assay,wound healing assay,and flow cytometry were used to detect the effects of SCV on the growth and proliferation capacity,colony formation ability,invasion and migration capabilities,cell cycle,and apoptosis of the four hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines,respectively.Western blotting was performed to detect the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins,including nuclear factor kappa-B subunit p65(p65),B-cell lymphoma 2(Bcl-2),and Caspase-3,and to preliminarily explore the underlying mechanism.Results The CCK-8 assay showed that SCV at 0.5,1,2,4,and 8 μmol/L had no significant cytotoxic effect on L02 cells compared with untreated control group,so 2,4,and 8 μmol/L SCV were selected for subsequent experiments.Compared with the untreated control group(0 μmol/L),SCV at different concentrations(2,4,and 8 μmol/L)significantly inhibited the proliferation of the four HCC cell lines(P<0.001).The plate cloning formation assay showed that SCV at different concentrations(2,4,and 8 μmol/L)significantly reduced the colony formation ability of the four HCC cell lines(P<0.05 or P<0.01 or P<0.001).In addition,Transwell and wound healing assays revealed that SCV at different concentrations(2,4,and 8 μmol/L)significantly inhibited the invasion and migration of HCC cells(P<0.05 or P<0.01 or P<0.001).In the above results,the inhibitory effect of SCV was concentration-dependent.Flow cytometry analysis indicated that SCV arrested cells in the G2/M phase(P<0.05 or P<0.01 or P<0.001)and significantly promoted cell apoptosis(P<0.05 or P<0.01 or P<0.001).Western blotting showed that SCV significantly down-regulated the expression of p65(P<0.05 or P<0.01)and Bcl-2(P<0.05),and up-regulated the expression of Caspase-3(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusions SCV can significantly inhibit the proliferation,colony formation,invasion,and migration of multiple human HCC cell lines and arrest the cell cycle.SCV may inhibit the expression of p65 and Bcl-2,thereby lifting their inhibitory effect on the apoptotic pathway and activating Caspase-3 to promote apoptosis.

Aim To investigate the role of tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase(TDO2)in cisplatin-acute kidney in-jury(Cis-AKI)and to explore the mechanism of TDO2 in relation to apoptosis in tubular epithelial cells(TECs)to investigate the mechanism of TDO2 associ-ated with apoptosis.Methods An AKI model was es-tablished by intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin(Cis).Colorimetric assay was used to detect CRE and BUN levels,and PAS staining was employed to observe renal injury in mice.Immunohistochemistry was used to detect TDO2 protein expression and distribution and macrophage(F4/80+)infiltration;immunofluores-cence was used to detect the co-localization of TDO2 with the tubular marker LTL;TUNEL staining was used to detect apoptosis in mouse kidney;flow cytome-try was used to detect overexpression of human renal cortical proximal tubular epithelial cells(HK2)and apoptosis after administration of the TDO2 inhibitor 680C91;Western blot was used to detect TDO2 and NF-κB pathway protein levels in HK2 cells after over-expression and inhibition of TDO2.Results In the o-verall animal experiments,Cis-AKI mice showed signif-icantly higher levels of CRE and BUN and obvious tu-bular damage compared with the control group;at the same time,the renal tissues of Cis-AKI mice showed increased expression of F4/80,and the proportion of apoptotic cells in kidney cells was increased.Immuno-histochemistry and immunofluorescence showed that the expression of TDO2 increased,mainly localized in TECs.In cellular experiments,HK2 cells overexpress-ing TDO2 increased the proportion of apoptosis,and the expression of TDO2,p-IKBα,and p-p65 proteins was elevated,and p-IKBα/IκBα and p-p65/p65 were ele-vated;furthermore,the proportion of apoptosis was re-duced by the administration of 680C91,and the expres-sion of p-IκBα,and p-p65 proteins decreased,and the expression of p-IKBα/IKBα,and p-p65/p65 de-creased.Conclusions Elevated TDO2 in TECs is in-volved in the pathological mechanism of Cis-AKI,which may be related to its induction of apoptosis in TECs and activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway and consequently renal injury.

Aim To investigate the effect of oroxylin A(OA)on apoptosis in Ishikawa cell line of endometrial cancer and the underlying mechanism through the phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase/protein kinase B(PI3K/AKT)signaling pathway.Methods Ishikawa cells were treated with different concentrations of OA(0,4,8,10,12,and 20 μmol·L-1)for 24 h-72 h,the cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay,apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry,and the protein ex-pression levels of B-cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2),Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax),PI3K/AKT,recombinant cytochrome P450 1B1(CYP1B1),and catechol-O-methyltransferase(COMT)were detected by Western blot technique.Results OA inhibited the prolifera-tion of Ishikawa cells in a concentration-and time-de-pendent manner.Compared with the blank control group,the expression of Bax protein increased signifi-cantly,while the expression of Bcl-2 protein decreased significantly with the increase of OA concentration.The expression of COMT protein increased significant-ly,while the expression of CYP1B1 protein decreased significantly.PI3K/AKT:IGF-1(PI3 K agonist)sup-plementation reversed the effect,the expression of COMT protein significantly decreased,and the expres-sion of CYP1B1 protein significantly increased.Con-clusions OA exerts anti-tumor effects in Ishikawa cells of endometrial cancer,which may be related to cell apoptosis mediated by the inhibition of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

To investigate the phenotype and genomic characterization of a mucoid-type Salmonella Saintpaul ST50 isolate from a urinary tract infection patient,promoting clinical diagnosis and treatment for urinary tract infections caused by Salmo-nella spp.Culture-based quantitative counts of midstream urine sample from the patient were conducted,and further biochemi-cal identification,mass spectrometry detection,serum agglutination test and antimicrobial susceptibility test(AST)were con-ducted on Salmonella isolate(2024JD5).Whole-genome sequencing(WGS)was performed on isolate 2024JD5 to predict sero-type,multilocus sequence type(MLST),resistance genes,and virulence genes.Two smooth-type of Salmonella Saintpaul ST50 were selected as comparative genomic reference strains from the Chinese local Salmonella genome database.The literature reviews of global Salmonella serotype of urinary tract infection were summarized.Specific serum agglutination confir-mation of isolate 2024JD5 failed due to characterization of the mucus type.The strain 2024JD5 was predicted as Salmonella Saintpaul(4,5,12:e,h:1,2)ST50 using WGS,and was resistant to ciprofloxacin,nalidixic acid,chloramphenicol and tetracy-cline with carrying aminoglycoside resistance genes aac(6')-Ⅰaa and aph(3)-Ⅱa,chloramphenicol resistance gene floR,tetra-cycline resistance gene tet,quinolone resistance gene qnrS1,and S83Y substitution in the gyrA gene was found in the quinolo-ne resistance determination region(QRDR).In addition,the strain 2024JD4 carried six types of non-plasmid-based mobile ge-netic elements and 144 virulence genes,including 71 secretion transporter genes and 58 fimbriae adhesion genes,respectively.Four types of fimbriae regulatory genes(csgB,csgC,fimW,fimY)were absent in comparison with smooth-type Salmonella Saintpaul.The literature reviews showed Salmonella Saintpaul was currently a rare Salmonella serotype in cases of urinary tract infections worldwide.Salmonella Saintpaul ST50 with mucoid-type is the pathogen of urinary tract infection with multi-drug resistant phenotypic and genotypic characteristics,and the high mucoid expression may be related to the compensatory mechanism of fimbriae regulatory genes absence in urinary tract colonization and adaptation.WGS combined with the Chinese local Salmonella genome database can effectively solve the diagnosis and biosafety assessments of rare Salmonella phenotypes.

BACKGROUND:Our previous studies found that decreased expression of connexin 43 and its Ser368 phosphorylation after myocardial hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion was closely associated with decreased cardiac conduction velocity and reperfusion arrhythmia.OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of changes in membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase 2,matrix metalloproteinase 2 and collagen type Ⅳ on the expression of connexin 43 and its Ser368 phosphorylation and electrical conduction in the myocardial extracellular matrix after hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion.METHODS:Sixteen Langendorff extracorporeal cardiac perfusion models were successfully established from SD rats and randomly divided into a control group(n=8)and a hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group(n=8).The control group was balanced perfused with 37 ℃ Krebs-Henseleit solution for 15 minutes and then continued to be perfused with 37 ℃ Krebs-Henseleit solution for 90 minutes.The hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group was balanced perfused with 37 ℃ Krebs-Henseleit solution for 15 minutes,and then the heart was arrested for 60 minutes by injection of 4 ℃ Thomas solution.During the cardiac arrest,the periphery was protected by 4 ℃ Krebs-Henseleit solution.Half-volume 4 ℃ Thomas solution was reperfused 30 minutes after the arrest.After stopping the arrest,the heart was reperfused with 37 ℃ Krebs-Henseleit solution for 30 minutes.The occurrence of arrhythmias,rebeating time,and the duration of arrhythmias were recorded from the immediate time point to the end of the reperfusion period.Conduction velocity,absolute inhomogeneity,and inhomogeneity index were measured using the Mapping Lab multi-channel electrophysiological mapping system at the time of balanced perfusion for 15 minutes(T1),reperfusion for 15 minutes/continuous perfusion for 90 minutes(T2),and reperfusion for 30 minutes/continuous perfusion for 105 minutes(T3).The relative expression levels of membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase 2,matrix metalloproteinase 2,collagen type Ⅳ,connexin 43,and its Ser368 phosphorylation in ventricular tissue were detected by western blot assay.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)No arrhythmia occurred in the control group.There were six cases of arrhythmia in the hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group during reperfusion.Rebeating time and duration of arrhythmias were(25.38+12.02)and(158.67±67.68)seconds,respectively.(2)The conduction sochronal diagrams at T1,T2,and T3 in the control group were uniform and regular in direction,and the conduction velocity at T2 and T3 was not different from that at T1(P＞0.05).The conduction isochronal diagrams at T2 and T3 in the hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group were uneven and irregular in direction,and the conduction velocity was slower than that at T1(P＜0.01).The conduction velocity at T2 and T3 in the hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group was slower than that in the control group(P＜0.01).Conduction dispersion was greater in the hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group than that in the control group at T2 and T3(P＜0.05).(3)Compared with the control group,the protein expressions of membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase 2 and matrix metalloproteinase 2 in the hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group were increased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),and the protein expression levels of type Ⅳ collagen,connexin 43 and its Ser368 phosphorylation were decreased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(4)The results indicate that after hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion,myocardial extracellular matrix remodeling may mediate the downregulation of myocardial connexin 43 and its Ser368 phosphorylation,slowed conduction velocity and increased conduction dispersion,thereby increasing the risk of arrhythmia.

Objective To summarize the changing prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Enterobacterales based on the data of CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program from 2015 to 2021 for improving antimicrobial treatment in clinical practice.Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using a commercial automated susceptibility testing system according to the unified CHINET protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints of the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)M100 31st ed in 2021.Results Over the seven-year period(2015-2021),the overall prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE)was 9.43％(62 342/661 235).The prevalence of CRE strains in Klebsiella pneumoniae,Citrobacter freundii,and Enterobacter cloacae was 22.38％,9.73％,and 8.47％,respectively.The prevalence of CRE strains in Escherichia coli was 1.99％.A few CRE strains were also identified in Salmonella and Shigella.The CRE strains were mainly isolated from respiratory specimens(44.23±2.80)％,followed by blood(20.88±3.40)％and urine(18.40±3.45)％.Intensive care units(ICUs)were the major source of the CRE strains(27.43±5.20)％.CRE strains were resistant to all the β-lactam antibiotics tested and most non-β-lactam antimicrobial agents.The CRE strains were relatively susceptible to tigecycline and polymyxins with low resistance rates.Conclusions The prevalence of CRE strains was increasing from 2015 to 2021.CRE strains were highly resistant to most of the antibacterial drugs used in clinical practice.Clinicians should prescribe antimicrobial agents rationally.Hospitals should strengthen antibiotic stewardship in key clinical settings such as ICUs,and take effective infection control measures to curb CRE outbreak and epidemic in hospitals.
