BACKGROUND:Flap transplantation technique is a commonly used surgical procedure for the treatment of severe tissue defects,but postoperative flap necrosis is easily triggered by ischemia-reperfusion injury.Therefore,it is still an important research topic to improve the survival rate of transplanted flaps. OBJECTIVE:To review the pathogenesis and latest treatment progress of flap ischemia-reperfusion injury. METHODS:CNKI,WanFang Database and PubMed database were searched for relevant literature published from 2014 to 2024.The search terms used were"flap,ischemia-reperfusion injury,inflammatory response,oxidative stress,Ca2+overload,apoptosis,mesenchymal stem cells,platelet-rich plasma,signaling pathways,shock wave,pretreatment"in Chinese and English.After elimination of irrelevant literature,poor quality and obsolete literature,77 documents were finally included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Flap ischemia/reperfusion injury may be related to pathological factors such as inflammatory response,oxidative stress response,Ca2+overload,and apoptosis,which can cause apoptosis of vascular endothelial cells,vascular damage and microcirculation disorders in the flap,and eventually lead to flap necrosis.Studies have found that mesenchymal stem cell transplantation,platelet-rich plasma,signaling pathway modulators,shock waves,and pretreatment can alleviate flap ischemia/reperfusion injuries from different aspects and to varying degrees,and reduce the necrosis rate and necrosis area of the grafted flap.Although there are many therapeutic methods for skin flap ischemia/reperfusion injury,a unified and effective therapeutic method has not yet been developed in the clinic,and the advantages and disadvantages of various therapeutic methods have not yet been compared.Most of the studies remain in the stage of animal experiments,rarely involving clinical observations.Therefore,a lot of research is required in the future to gradually move from animal experiments to the clinic in order to better serve the clinic.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective This study aimed to develop an automated method for syndrome element differenti-ation in Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM).Methods We first constructed and trained an Instruction-tuned Multi-Task TCM text embedding model(Instr-MT-TCM)using four distinct TCM task datasets,including domain knowledge,synonymous terminology,syndrome differentiation and treatment,and TCM case labels.Subsequently,five TCM diagnostics experts holding master's degrees or higher were organized to screen a real-world TCM case dataset and annotate symptoms and signs.The purpose was to evaluate the F1-score of the proposed method—the combination of Instr-MT-TCM and a Large Language Model(LLM)—by comparing its performance against the manual annotation result on the syndrome element differentiation task.Finally,to validate its feasibility in real-world clinical settings,the method was applied to 48 prostate cancer cases to calculate the syndrome element scores.Results The Instr-MT-TCM model showed rapid performance improvement in its early training phase,achieving a Recall@1(R@1)of 0.848.Experts curated a dataset of 1,793 real-world clinical cases,covering 34 common diseases and 66 syndrome patterns.In the syndrome element differentiation task,the collaborative framework of LLM and Instr-MT-TCM achieved a mean F1-score of 0.927,outperforming the 0.512 from manual annota-tion.The syndrome element analysis revealed that the predominant elements of disease nature were fire(heat)and yin deficiency,while the main elements of disease location were bladder and kidney.Conclusion This study proposes and validates a novel method for automated TCM syndrome element dif-ferentiation based on the synergy between LLM and our custom Instr-MT-TCM model.Achieving a high F1-score(0.927)on real-world data,the method demonstrates excellent accuracy and generalization ability.Its application in prostate cancer analysis highlights its significant clinical potential,offering effective technical support,and a new research direction for intelligent TCM syndrome element differentiation.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of pressing needle in preventing and reducing nausea and vomiting in patients after gynecological laparoscopic surgery.Methods A total of 199 patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery from May to Nov 2023 at Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University were randomly divided into research group(n=99)and control group(n=100).The observation group was given Tanzhong,zanzhu and Taichong pressing needles on the basis of the control group.The postoperative nausea and vomiting were observed in the two groups.Results There were significant differences in the incidence and duration of postoperative nausea,the incidence of postoperative vomiting between the two groups(P<0.05),but there was no significant difference in the duration of postoperative vomiting.The incidence of nausea and vomiting in the observation group was lower than that in the control group.Conclusion Pressing needle can effectively prevent the occurrence of nausea and vomiting after gynecological laparoscopic surgery,and reduce the degree of nausea and vomiting,and reduce the duration of nausea.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of robot-assisted balloon tibioplasty and traditional open reduction and internal fixation in the treatment of AO/OTA type 41B2 tibial plateau fracture.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 70 patients with AO/OTA type 41B2 tibial plateau fracture who were admitted to Wuhan Fourth Hospital from September 2019 to October 2022, including 35 males and 35 females, aged 24-62 years [(44.9±9.5)years]. Among them, 41 patients underwent traditional open reduction and internal fixation (open reduction group), while 29 patients underwent robot-assisted balloon tibioplasty (balloon group). The following parameters were compared between the two groups: incision length, operative blood loss, number of intraoperative fluoroscopies, operation duration, and length of hospital stay; Rasmussen radiological scores at 3 days, 3 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up and the fracture healing time; pain visual analogue scale (VAS) scores preoperatively, and at 2 days and 3 months postoperatively; knee joint range of motion at 5 days, 3 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up; Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee function scores at 3, 6 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up; incidence rate of complications at 15 days postoperatively.Results:All the patients were followed for 12-24 months [18(17, 20)months]. The incision length, operative blood loss and length of hospital stay in the balloon group were 1.6(1.5, 3.0)cm, 5.0(5.0, 5.0)ml and 11.0(9.0, 14.0)days, less than those in the open reduction group [12.0(11.0, 12.0)cm, 100.0(50.0, 120.0)ml and 15.0(13.0, 20.0)days] ( P<0.01). The number of intraoperative fluoroscopies and operation duration in the open reduction group were 9.0(7.0, 10.0)times and 75.0(60.0, 90.0)minutes, less than those in the balloon group [336.0(335.0, 340.0)times and [90.0(70.0, 105.0)minutes] ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the Rasmussen radiological scores between the two groups at 3 days, 3 months postoperatively, or at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). The fracture healing time in the balloon group was 3.0(3.0, 3.0)months, shorter than 3.0(3.0, 3.5)months in the open reduction group ( P<0.05). No significant differences were observed between the two groups in VAS scores before operation or at 3 months postoperatively ( P>0.05). However, the VAS score was 2.0(2.0, 3.0)points at 2 days postoperatively in the balloon group, lower than 5.0(5.0, 6.0)points in the open reduction group ( P<0.01). The knee joint range of motion at 5 days, 3 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up were 90.0(85.0, 90.0)°, 135.0(130.0, 135.0)° and 140.0(135.0, 140.0)° in the balloon group, better than 65.0(60.0, 70.0)°, 125.0(120.0, 130.0)°, 130.0(130.0, 140.0)° in the open reduction group ( P<0.01). Similarly, the HSS knee function scores at 3, 6 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up were 80.0(80.0, 81.0)points, 91.0(90.0, 92.0)points, and 95.0(93.0, 96.0)points in the balloon group, better than 71.0(70.0, 72.0)points, 83.0(81.0, 84.0)points, and 86.0(84.0, 88.0)points in the open reduction group ( P<0.01). The incidence rate of complications in the balloon group was 0, comparable to 12% (5/41) in the open reduction group ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with traditional open reduction and internal fixation surgery, robot-assisted balloon tibioplasty in the treatment of AO/OTA type 41B2 tibial plateau fracture significantly reduces surgical trauma, alleviates postoperative pain, promotes fracture healing, and accelerates functional recovery of the affected limbs.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical features of dystonia in patients with different types of atypical Parkinson syndrome (APS).Methods:A total of 104 patients with APS admitted in the Department of Neurology, Beijing Hospital from January 2015 to June 2023 were enrolled in the study, including 57 cases of multiple system atrophy (MSA), 38 cases of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and 9 cases of corticobasal degeneration (CBD). Among 104 cases there were 63 males (60.6%), the mean age of patients was (62.3±8.9) years (54 to 73 years). The sex, age at onset, disease duration, first symptom, clinical features of dystonia and other neurological signs, response to levodopa therapy, numbers of Hoehn & Yahr scale≥3 after 3 years of disease, and MRI findings were documented in patients with different type APS.Results:The overall frequency of dystonia in this series was 45.2%(47/104), and 33.3% (19/57) for MSA group, 50.0% (19/38) for PSP group, 9/9 for CBD group. The types of dystonia were anterocollis, retrocollis, blepharospasm, oromandibular, foot/limb dystonia, Pisa syndrome and myoclonus. In all 47 cases presenting dydtonia, dystonia was not the first complaint and it did not respond to levodopa therapy.Conclusion:In this series of atypical Parkinson syndrome, dystonia is a common feature of the disease, while it is not the first symptom at disease onset, and usually does not respond to levodopa therapy.

Objective:To investigate the iodine nutrition status of children and pregnant women in different water iodine areas of Shandong Province.Methods:From February to September 2023, Leling City (iodine deficient), Gaotang County (moderate iodine), and Liangshan County (high iodine) in different water iodine areas of Shandong Province were selected as survey sites. One village was selected from each county (city) in five directions: east, west, south, north, and center. Forty children aged 8 to 10 years (balanced in age, half male and half female) and 20 pregnant women were selected as survey subjects in each village. Random urine samples of children and pregnant women were collected to test for urinary iodine. Meanwhile, thyroid examinations were conducted on children to calculate the goiter rate.Results:A total of 600 urine samples of children were tested, with a median urinary iodine level of 246.0 μg/L. The median urinary iodine levels of children in iodine deficient, moderate iodine and high iodine areas were 219.6, 208.0 and 446.0 μg/L, respectively ( n = 200, 200, 200). The median urinary iodine level of children in high iodine area was significantly higher than that in iodine deficient and moderate iodine areas ( P < 0.05). A total of 600 children underwent thyroid examinations, with a goiter rate of 5.8% (35/600). The goiter rate of children in iodine deficient, moderate iodine, and high iodine areas were 4.0% (8/200), 1.0% (2/200), and 12.5% (25/200), respectively. The goiter rate of children in high iodine area was significantly higher than that in iodine deficient and moderate iodine areas ( P < 0.05). A total of 247 urine samples of pregnant women were tested, with a median urinary iodine level of 158.2 μg/L. The median urinary iodine levels of pregnant women in iodine deficient, moderate iodine, and high iodine areas were 75.3, 175.2 and 321.2 μg/L, respectively ( n = 98, 84, 65). The median urinary iodine level of pregnant women in high iodine area was significantly higher than that in iodine deficient and moderate iodine areas, and the median urinary iodine level of pregnant women in moderate iodine area was significantly higher than that in iodine deficient area ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:The urinary iodine levels of children and pregnant women and the goiter rate of children in high iodine area of Shandong Province are significantly increased, and water iodine may be a key factor affecting the iodine nutrition status of the population.

Aim To explore the mechanism of Lycium barbarum glycopeptide(LbGP)improving aging in rat primary ovarian granulosa cells.Methods This study divided the cells into a normal group,a DOX group,and four different LbGP concentration treatment groups post-DOX intervention.Results Cell proliferation was assessed using CCK-8,EDU,and Ki67 assays,while aging markers and mitochondrial function-related fac-tors were detected using immunofluorescence and West-ern blotting.The results showed that,compared to the DOX group,LbGP treatment significantly increased cell viability(P＜0.05)and promoted proliferation(P＜0.05).Post LbGP treatment,the β-galactosidase-posi-tive area in cells was significantly reduced compared to the DOX group(P＜0.05).Immunofluorescence re-sults indicated that,compared to the DOX group,levels of p21 and γH2AX significantly decreased(P＜0.05),while pRB increased(P＜0.05)after LbGP treatment.Western blot results showed that,compared to the DOX group,the aging phenotype proteins p21 and p53 significantly decreased(P＜0.05),and pRB notably increased(P＜0.05)in the LbGP treatment group.The release of cytC into the cytoplasm and the activated caspase-9 significantly decreased(P＜0.05);levels of CAMKK2,pAMPK,and mitochondrial calcium homeostasis regulator MCU increased(P＜0.05);nuclear energy metabolism-related proteins SirT1,PGC1α/β and ATP5A1 significantly increased(P＜0.05);compared to the DOX group,ROS levels significantly decreased after LbGP treatment(P＜0.05).Conclusions The results suggest that LbGP can ameliorate DOX-induced aging in rat primary ovar-ian granulosa cells,potentially through the upregulation of the CAMKKβ/AMPK signaling pathway,thereby im-proving mitochondrial calcium homeostasis and increas-ing the expression levels of cell energy metabolism-re-lated regulatory proteins.This provides an experimen-tal basis for LbGP's potential role in supporting the im-provement of ovarian function.
