Objective To test the longitudinal mediating mechanism of kinesophobia between family functioning and exercise adherence in elderly patients with postoperative adjacent vertebral re-fracture after osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture(OVCF).Methods Convenience sampling method was used to admit to the Department of Orthopaedics of a tertiary hospital in Xuzhou City with adjacent vertebral re-fracture after OVCF were conveniently selected as the survey subjects,and longitudinal investigation was conducted using the APGAR,Functional Exercise Adherence Scale,and TSK Scale.Unconditional potential growth model,structural equation and Bootstrap method were used for statistical analysis.Results A total of 232 valid questionnaires were collected.Longitudinal mediation modeling revealed that the intercept of family functioning significantly negatively predicted the intercept of kinesophobia(β=-0.456,P＜0.001)and the slope of family functioning significantly negatively predicted the slope of kinesophobia(β=-0.962,P＜0.001).The intercept for kinesophobia significantly negatively predicted the intercept for exercise adherence(β=-0.623,P＜0.001)and significantly negatively predicted the slope for exercise adherence(β=-0.354,P=0.013).Conclusion The initial level and rate of development of kinesophobia play a fully longitudinal mediating role in the development of family functioning on exercise adherence.Medical professionals should assess and manage patients'family functioning and kinesophobia in a timely manner,and rationally utilize their interrelationships to improve the level of exercise adherence as much as possible.

Objective:This study sought to examine the clinicopathological features of monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma (MEITL) and to discuss its differential diagnosis.Methods:A total of 36 MEITL cases, collected between June 2015 and January 2024 from the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and the First Affiliated Hospital, College of Medicine, Zhejiang University, were analyzed. Patients underwent immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization for Epstein-Barr virus-encoded small RNA (EBER), and T-cell receptor (TCR) gene rearrangement testing. Clinical data, laboratory results, and follow-up information were collected for correlation analysis.Results:The cohort included 36 patients (20 males and 16 females) aged 17-76 years (median: 57 years). Tumors outside the intestine were observed in 22 cases (61%). A total of 32 patients (89%) underwent surgical intervention and/or chemotherapy, and one patient received auto-HSCT. The median follow-up duration was 11.5 months (range: 8-73 months), with a median overall survival of 6 months (range: 1-67 months) ; 34 patients died during the follow-up period. Morphologically, nine cases (25%) exhibited significant pleomorphism. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that high expression levels of both P53 and c-Myc were correlated with atypical morphology ( P=0.003 and P=0.016, respectively). Notably, patients with high P53 expression had significantly shorter survival times than those with low P53 expression ( χ2=4.922, P=0.027), whereas survival did not differ significantly based on c-Myc expression levels ( χ2=0.034, P=0.854). Furthermore, a PD-L1 CPS score ≥10 was observed in 22 cases (68.8%). Scattered EBER positivity in background cells was identified in four cases. All tested cases (17/17, 100.0%) showed clonal TCR gene rearrangements. Conclusions:MEITL is a rare but highly aggressive lymphoma with distinct clinical and pathological features. A subset of cases may exhibit atypical morphological patterns, complicating the diagnostic process. Improving awareness of this neoplasm is helpful for early and precise diagnosis as well as the estabolishment of novel therapy regimen.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of robot-assisted surgery in children with cholangiectasis under 3 months of age.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. The clinical data of 53 children with cholangiectasis under 3 months admitted to Department of General Surgery of Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine from April 2019 to December 2024 were included retrospectively. According to the surgical method, the patients were divided into robot-assisted surgery(RAS) group(5 males, 24 females, age ( M(IQR)) 49.0(36.0)days (range: 19.0 to 90.0 days), weight 5.00(1.65)kg (range: 3.40 to 7.50 kg)) and laparoscopic-assisted surgery(LAS) group (5 males, 19 females, age 55.5(27.3)days (range: 18.0 to 87.0 days), weight 4.90 (1.62)kg (range: 3.50 to 6.20 kg)). Nineteen cases in each group were prenatally diagnosed. Data were statistically analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test and the Pearson χ 2 test, respectively. Results:No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in age, sex, weight, or preoperative biochemical indices(all P>0.05). All procedures were successfully completed without conversion to open surgery. Postoperative biochemical indices, fasting duration, cyst diameter, operative time, drainage tube retention time, and follow-up duration showed no significant differences between the groups(all P>0.05). Compared to the LAS group, the RAS group demonstrated significantly shorter postoperative hospital stays (9.0(5.0)days (range:7.0 to 18.0 days) vs. 11.5(5.5)days (range:7.0 to 38.0 days), U=236.5, P=0.044) and hepaticojejunostomy time (15.0(3.5)minutes (range:11.0 to 22.0 minutes) vs. 18.0(3.0)minutes (range:13.0 to 25.0 minutes), U=144.5, P=0.001). However, the RAS group incurred higher surgical costs (78 099.9(10 100.1)yuan (range: 72 148.7 to 112 898.6 yuan) vs. 30 158.6(15 283.1)yuan (range: 25 041.7 to 107 673.1 yuan), U=41.0, P<0.01). In the LAS group, 3 patients developed anastomotic leakage requiring reoperation, while the RAS group had 1 case of anastomotic stenosis 2 years postoperatively (received second hepaticojejunostomy) and 1 case of incision infection(received incision debridement and dressing of the abscess). Conclusion:Robot-assisted surgery can be used to treat children with cholangiectasis under 3 months of age and may achieve good results.

Objective To investigate the effect of circRNA-homeodomain-interacting protein kinase 2(circHIPK2)on angiotensinⅡ(AngⅡ)-induced apoptosis of vascular endothelial cells through the regulation of the miR-7-5p/transcription factor 4(TCF4)axis.Methods Human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs)were randomly divided into the control,model,negative control cotrans-fection,circHIPK2 knockdown,miR-7-5p overexpression,and circHIPK2 knockdown+miR-7-5p knockdown groups.Except for the control group,all other groups were administered 10 nmol/L Ang Ⅱ to establish a hypertensive injury model.The circHIPK2,miR-7-5p,and TCF4 mRNA expression levels were detected after transfection.Apoptosis,proliferation,mitochondrial membrane potential,reactive oxygen species(ROS),antioxidant enzymes,pro-inflammatory factors,and TCF4 protein expression were assessed.Results Compared with the control group,the expressions of circHIPK2 and TCF4 mRNA,cell apoptosis rate,relative expression of ROS,levels of IL-6,IL-1β,and IL-18,and expressions of Bax and TCF4 protein increased,and cell viability,miR-7-5p mRNA expression,mitochondrial mem-brane potential,activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and catalase(CAT),and Bcl-2 protein expression decreased in the model group(P＜0.05).Both circHIPK2 knockdown and miR-7-5p overexpression reversed Ang Ⅱ-induced pathological changes in vascular endothelial cells.miR-7-5p knockdown reduced the effect of circHIPK2 knockdown on pathological cellular changes in the model group.Conclusion circHIPK2 knockdown can weaken TCF4 expression by upregulating miR-7-5p,thereby reducing Ang Ⅱ-induced inflam-mation and oxidative stress in vascular endothelial cells and ultimately inhibiting cell apoptosis.

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease(CJD)is a rapidly progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by prions,with certain infectivity and iatrogenic transmission risks.With the rapid progress and application of new dia-gnostic biomarkers and detection methods,as well as the construction and improvement of surveillance and reporting systems,the detection of CJD in patients domestically and internationally has shown an increasing trend year by year.Due to its long incubation period and heterogeneity of early symptoms,early identification and diagnosis of the disease is difficult,increasing the risk of transmission within medical institutions.Currently,there is a lack of con-sensus on the infection prevention and control of CJD.In order to timely identify and diagnose CJD as well as effec-tively block its transmission in medical institutions,this consensus summarizes 15 clinical concerns and formulates 24 specific recommendations based on the latest domestic and international research findings and clinical evidence,as well as combines with clinical practice,aiming to standardize healthcare-associated infection prevention and control measures for CJD and reduce its transmission risk in medical institutions.
