Postoperative infection of internal fixation of closed fractures the lower limbs in adults represents a devastating complication, characterized by diagnostic challenges, prolonged treatment duration and high disability rates. Current management of these infections faces multiple challenges, such as difficulties in early accurate diagnosis, and various controversies about the treatment plan, leading to poor overall diagnosis and treatment results. To address these issues, based on evidence-based medicine and principles with emphasis on scientific rigor, clinical applicability and innovation, the Trauma Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Orthopedics Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Trauma Orthopedics and Polytrauma Group of the Resuscitation and Emergency Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association have collaboratively organized a panel of relevant experts to develop the Guideline for diagnosis and treatment of infection after internal fixation of closed lower limb fractures in adults ( version 2025). The guideline proposed 10 recommendations, aiming to provide a foundation for standardized diagnosis and treatment of postoperative infection in adults with closed lower limb fractures.

Objective To explore a better surgical approach for the surgical treatment of avulsion fractures of the posterior cruciate ligament of the tibial plateau.Methods From July 2014 to May 2024,A total of 29 cases of avulsion fractures at the insertion point of the posterior cruciate ligament of the tibial platform were admitted to our department.They were divided into two groups according to different surgical approaches.There were 16 cases in group A,which adopted the modified posterior approach,and 13 cases in group B,which adopted the conventional posterior approach.The therapeutic effects of the two groups of patients were evaluated by using the Lysholm knee score scale after surgery and the KOOS knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome scoring system.Results All patients were followed up for 12 to 14 months,with an average of(12.6±0.3)months.No serious adverse complications such as non-healing of the surgical site occurred in group A.In group B,there was 1 case of delayed wound healing and 8 cases of knee joint pain during movement.The Lysholm knee joint score and KOOS knee joint outcome score of patients in group A at 12 months after the operation were(88.65±9.23)points and(90.48±6.84)points respectively,and those in group B were(63.98±10.77)points and(69.37±9.01)points respectively.Both groups in group A were more satisfied than those in group B,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion For patients with avulsion fractures of the insertion point of the posterior cruciate ligament of the tibial platform,the modified minimally invasive penetrating muscle approach on the posterior side of the knee joint can reduce related complications such as excessive intraoperative bleeding,internal relaxation of the knee joint,and poor postoperative wound healing,enabling early functional exercise for patients and achieving a better prognosis.

Objective:To analyze the prenatal ultrasonographic features and prognosis of fetal perirenal urinoma.Methods:This retrospective study included eight fetuses with perirenal urinoma diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound in the Women and Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2017 to August 2023. Descriptive analysis was performed on their prenatal ultrasonographic features, intrauterine intervention measures, postnatal treatment, and prognosis.Results:Among the eight cases, the prenatal ultrasonographic diagnosis was consistent with the postnatal clinical diagnosis in seven cases, with one misdiagnosis (postnatally confirmed as giant renal cyst with multicystic dysplastic kidney). Prenatal ultrasonographic features of fetal perirenal urinoma included cystic mass adjacent to the renal capsule; obvious compression of the surrounding organs and the affected kidney; increased craniocaudal diameter of the affected kidney with thin parenchyma, increased echogenicity, indistinct corticomedullary differentiation, and pyeletasis; poorly visualized partial renal arteries; normal or mildly enlarged contralateral kidney; adequate bladder filling; normal amniotic fluid volume. Two cases underwent intrauterine cyst aspiration with subsequent cyst size reduction (slight re-enlargement during follow-up). Among the remaining six untreated cases, one case showed stable cyst size, while five cases exhibited initial significant cyst enlargement followed by stabilization or regression trend. All eight cases were born at full term (three delivered vaginally and five by cesarean section). The affected kidney was significantly atrophied within one week after birth by ultrasound observation. Impaired function of the affected kidney was shown in four patients by follow-up after discharge (including two cases of intrauterine treatment),one case abandoned treatment due to other illnesses, two cases were lost to follow-up after discharge.Conclusions:Prenatal ultrasound images of perirenal urinary cysts infetuses exhibit typical features. Intrauterine treatment can reduce the compression of large cysts and hydronephrosis on fetal organs, but there is no significant improvement in the recovery of renal function.

With the widespread adoption of low-dose CT screening and the extensive application of high-resolution CT, the detection rate of sub-centimeter lung nodules has significantly increased. How to scientifically manage these nodules while avoiding overtreatment and diagnostic delays has become an important clinical issue. Among them, lung nodules with a consolidation tumor ratio less than 0.25, dominated by ground-glass shadows, are particularly worthy of attention. The therapeutic challenge for this group is how to achieve precise and complete resection of nodules during surgery while maximizing the preservation of the patient's lung function. The "watershed topography map" is a new technology based on big data and artificial intelligence algorithms. This method uses Dicom data from conventional dose CT scans, combined with microscopic (22-24 levels) capillary network anatomical watershed features, to generate high-precision simulated natural segmentation planes of lung sub-segments through specific textures and forms. This technology forms fluorescent watershed boundaries on the lung surface, which highly fit the actual lung anatomical structure. By analyzing the adjacent relationship between the nodule and the watershed boundary, real-time, visually accurate positioning of the nodule can be achieved. This innovative technology provides a new solution for the intraoperative positioning and resection of lung nodules. This consensus was led by four major domestic societies, jointly with expert teams in related fields, oriented to clinical practical needs, referring to domestic and foreign guidelines and consensus, and finally formed after multiple rounds of consultation, discussion, and voting. The main content covers the theoretical basis of the "watershed topography map" technology, indications, operation procedures, surgical planning details, and postoperative evaluation standards, aiming to provide scientific guidance and exploration directions for clinical peers who are currently or plan to carry out lung nodule resection using the fluorescent microscope watershed analysis method.

BACKGROUND: Treatment with chimeric antigen receptor-T (CAR-T) cells has shown promising effectiveness in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R B-ALL), although the process of preparing for this therapy usually takes a long time. We have recently created CD19 Fast-CAR-T (F-CAR-T) cells, which can be produced within a single day. The objective of this study was to evaluate and contrast the effectiveness and safety of CD19 F-CAR-T cells with those of CD19 conventional CAR-T cells in the management of R/R B-ALL. METHODS: A multicenter, retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 44 patients with R/R B-ALL was conducted. Overall, 23 patients were administered with innovative CD19 F-CAR-T cells (F-CAR-T group), whereas 21 patients were given CD19 conventional CAR-T cells (C-CAR-T group). We compared the rates of complete remission (CR), minimal residual disease (MRD)-negative CR, leukemia-free survival (LFS), overall survival (OS), and the incidence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) between the two groups. RESULTS: Compared with the C-CAR-T group, the F-CAR-T group had significantly higher CR and MRD-negative rates (95.7% and 91.3%, respectively; 71.4% and 66.7%, respectively; P = 0.036 and P = 0.044). No significant differences were observed in the 1-year or 2-year LFS or OS rates between the two groups: the 1-year and 2-year LFS for the F-CAR-T group vs.C-CAR-T group were 47.8% and 43.5% vs. 38.1% and 23.8% (P = 0.384 and P = 0.216), while the 1-year and 2-year OS rates were 65.2% and 56.5% vs. 52.4% and 47.6% (P = 0.395 and P = 0.540). Additionally, among CR patients who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) following CAR-T-cell therapy, there were no significant differences in the 1-year or 2-year LFS or OS rates: 57.1% and 50.0% vs. 47.8% and 34.8% (P = 0.506 and P = 0.356), 64.3% and 57.1% vs. 65.2% and 56.5% (P = 0.985 and P = 0.883), respectively. The incidence of CRS was greater in the F-CAR-T group (91.3%) than in the C-CAR-T group (66.7%) (P = 0.044). The incidence of ICANS was also greater in the F-CAR-T group (30.4%) than in the C-CAR-T group (9.5%) (P = 0.085), but no treatment-related deaths occurred in the two groups. CONCLUSION Compared with C-CAR-T-cell therapy, F-CAR-T-cell therapy has a superior remission rate but also leads to a tolerably increased incidence of CRS/ICANS. Further research is needed to explore the function of allo-HSCT as an intermediary therapy after CAR-T-cell therapy.

Objective To explore the acceptability of routine biochemical test results for serum samples with varying degrees of chylous high triglyceride(TG).Methods Blood samples of 69 patients with different degrees of lipids were collected,including 33 patients with mild to moderate lipids(1.7 mmol/L≤TG<5.6 mmol/L)and 36 patients with severe lipids(TG≥5.6 mmol/L).Twenty-nine biochemical tests were detected before and after high-speed centrifugation.The result acceptability before high speed centrifugation of serum was compared with the results after high speed centrifugation as the gold standard[TG and total cholesterol(TC)before centrifugation].The acceptable criteria were subject to the following three conditions at the same time.Firstly,correlation coefficient(R2)was greater than or equal to 0.95.Secondly,the slope of linear re-gression equation was 1.00±0.05.Thirdly,for the same index,the number of samples whose result bias be-fore and after centrifugation was less than 1/2 total allowable error(TEa)in more than 90%of the total sam-ple numbers.Results Firstly,in the mild to moderate lipemia group,22 tests met the criteria,7 tests did not,including total protein(TP),albumin(ALB),TG,aspartate aminotransferase(AST),carbon dioxide(CO2),α-L-fucosidase(AFU),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)(bias<10%),and the coincidence rate was 75.9%.In the severe lipemia group,12 tests met the criteria,17 tests did not,including pre-albumin(PA),AFU,γ-glu-tamyltransferase(γ-GT),LDH,AST,TC,direct bilirubin(DBIL),CO2,5'-nucleotidase(5'-NT),small and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(sd-LDL-C),high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),adenosine deaminase(ADA),cystatin C(CysC),glycosylated albumin(GA),total bilirubin(TBIL)(bias>10%),the coincidence rate was 41.4%,and there was a statistically sig-nificant difference in the coincidence rate between the two groups(P<0.05).Secondly,there was no statisti-cally significant difference in the acceptability of results between continuous monitoring method and endpoint method detection methods(P>0.05).Conclusion Most test results of direct determination with mild or moderate lipemia samples are acceptable,and the bias of unacceptable tests is small(<10%),so it is recom-mended to issue a test report without further sample treatment.However,due to the large number of unacceptable tests and larger bias(>10%),severe lipemia samples should be determined after high-speed centrifugation.

Objective:To explore the protocol for handgrip exercise stress echocardiography by comparing different maximal voluntary contraction（MVC）handgrip groups with bicycle exercise stress.Methods:Forty-one healthy volunteers were enrolled prospectively from June to October 2024 in Tangdu Hospital and utilized a color Doppler echocardiography system，supine cycle ergometer，and handgrip dynamometer to collect echocardiographic data at baseline，during handgrip exercises at 20%（3 min），30%（3 min），and 40%（2 min）of MVC，and spine bicycle exercise stress at peak. Parameters measured included left ventricular ejection fraction（EF），stroke volume（SV），cardiac output（CO），mitral inflow E-wave and A-wave velocities，lateral and septal mitral annular e' velocities，E/A and E/e' ratios，global longitudinal strain（GLS），left atrial reservoir strain（LAS R），conduit strain（LAS CD），and contractile strain（LAS CT）. The non-invasive myocardial work indices were also assessed，including global work index（GWI），global constructive work（GCW），global wasted work（GWW），and global work efficiency（GWE）. Statistical analyses were performed using repeated measures analysis of variance，with corrected paired t-test for comparisons between two exercise stress states. Results:Compared with the baseline state，heart rate，blood pressure，CO、GWI、GCW、GWW and LAS CT gradually increased，while EF、E/A、GLS、GWE、LAS R and LAS CD gradually decreased under 20%，30% and 40% of MVC states. The changes were most obvious at 40% of MVC state，which was selected for the handgrip exercise stress echocardiography protocol.Compared with the peak of bicycle exercise，at 40% of MVC，heart rate was significantly lower［（81.2 ± 9.7）bpm vs.（164.6 ± 11.3）bpm， P<0.05）］，systolic blood pressure was slightly lower［（152.9 ± 13.2）mmHg vs.（165.1 ± 20.4）mmHg， P<0.05］，diastolic blood pressure was higher［（96.0 ± 9.5）mmHg vs.（89.5 ± 10.9）mmHg， P<0.05］，GLS was lower［（19.1 ± 1.5）% vs.（23.5 ± 1.7）%， P<0.05］，GWI was similar［（2 254.2 ± 417.3）mmHg% vs.（2 227.5 ± 389.0）mmHg%， P>0.05］，but GWE was higher［（95.3 ± 2.0）% vs.（93.7 ± 2.0）%， P<0.05］，and LAS R was lower［（39.4 ± 4.2）% vs.（43.9 ± 4.1）%， P<0.05］. Conclusions:The 40% of MVC lasting 2 min can cause the most significant handgrip-related changes in cardiac function and can be used as the standard protocol for handgrip exercise stress echocardiography. Handgrip stress exercise can cause significant changes in cardiac systole，diastole，and work performance，showing different characteristics compared with bicycle exercise stress.

Background and purpose:Malnutrition and deterioration of nutritional status are common in patients after surgery for gastric cancer,especially in the elderly,and severely affect patient prognosis.Studies have shown that oral nutritional supplements(ONS)can improve the nutritional status and clinical outcomes of patients after surgery for gastric cancer with nutritional risk.This study analyzed elderly patients who underwent radical surgery for gastric cancer in a previous randomized controlled trial to explore the impact of ONS on elderly patients after surgery for gastric cancer with nutritional risk.Methods:Patients discharged after gastric cancer radical surgery with nutritional risk who received treatment at Zhongshan Hospital affiliated with Fudan University from January 2017 to December 2018 were selected.The control group received dietary advice three months after discharge,while the ONS group received dietary advice combined with ONS three months after discharge.The weight,body mass index(BMI),hemoglobin,plasma albumin,and chemotherapy tolerance of the two groups were compared three months after discharge.The data for this study was based on a previous randomized controlled trial(ChiCTR2000029708)which had received ethical approval.This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University(B2019-257R2).Results:A total of 125 patients who met the inclusion criteria were finally selected,including 69 in the ONS group and 56 in the control group.After 3 months of intervention,there were no significant differences in weight,BMI,hemoglobin,and plasma albumin levels between the two groups.However,the ONS group showed a significantly smaller decrease in weight change during the intervention period compared to the control group[(2.50±1.60)kg vs(4.24±1.80)kg,P＜0.05].The chemotherapy tolerance of the ONS group was significantly improved compared to the control group,with a decrease in the overall chemotherapy change rate(15.9%vs 41.1%,P=0.002),and fewer patients in the ONS group experienced chemotherapy delays,reduced drug dosages,and discontinuation of chemotherapy than those in the control group.Multivariate analysis showed that body weight,plasma albumin,hemoglobin,NRS2002,and BMI had no significant effect on the normal course of chemotherapy(P＞0.05);only ONS was a significant protective factor,significantly reducing the risk of chemotherapy modification(OR=0.227,P=0.001).Conclusion:ONS helps improve the chemotherapy tolerance of elderly postoperative gastric cancer patients and to some extent enhances their nutritional outcomes.For elderly postoperative gastric cancer patients with nutritional risk,nutritional intervention after discharge has a positive impact on improving clinical outcomes.

Objective To explore the effects and therapeutic mechanism of electroacupuncture on the levels of polarization markers and inflammatory factors interleukin(IL)-6,IL-4,tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α),and IL-10 in rats with para-chlorophenylalanine-induced insomnia(PCPA).Methods Fifty healthy specific-pathogen free grade Sprague-Dawley rats,half male and half female,were randomly divided into a blank group(n=10)and a model reserve group(n=40),in which insomnia was induced by intraperitoneal injection of a 500 mg/kg PCPA suspension.Using the random number table method,the 30 successfully modeled rats were divided into three treatment groups of 10 rats/group:model,electroacupuncture,and estazolam.The estazolam group was given estazolam 0.2 mg/(kg·d)by gavage;the electroacupuncture group was given once-daily electroacupuncture at the"Shenmen"and"Sanyinjiao"acupoints,and stimulation at the"Baihui"and"Benshen"acupoints,20 minutes each time,for 7 consecutive days.Following treatment,serum and hypothalamic levels of TNF-α,IL-6,IL-4,and IL-10 were detected using ELISA and Western blot,while immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the presence of Iba-1 in hypothalamic microglia and the co-expression of CD86 and CD163,which are markers for the M1 and M2 subtypes of microglial cells,respectively.Results Compared with the blank group,the model group exhibited prolonged sleep latency(SL)(P＜0.01),shortened sleep duration(ST)(P＜0.05),significantly higher serum and hypothalamic protein levels of IL-6 and TNF-α(P＜0.01),and significantly lower levels of IL-4 and IL-10(P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,the electroacupuncture and estazolam groups exhibited significantly shorter SL(P＜0.01),prolonged ST(P＜0.01),significantly lower serum and hypothalamic protein levels of IL-6 and TNF-α(P＜0.01),and significantly higher IL-4 and IL-10 levels(P＜0.01).IL-6 content was lower in the electroacupuncture group than in the estazolam group(P＜0.05).Compared with the blank group,the model group exhibited significantly enhanced Iba-1/CD86(M1 type)co-expression(P＜0.01)alongside significantly weakened Iba-1/CD163(M2 type)co-expression(P＜0.01).Under electroacupuncture or estazolam intervention,Iba-1/CD86 co-expression was significantly weakened(P＜0.01),and Iba-1/CD163 co-expression was significantly enhanced in the model group(P＜0.05).Conclusions Electroacupuncture effectively improved sleep disturbances in rats,with an underlying mechanism that may involve regulation of microglial polarization,downregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokine levels,upregulation of anti-inflammatory cytokine levels,and alleviation of neuroinflammation,thereby ameliorating sleep.

Objective To explore a better surgical approach for the surgical treatment of avulsion fractures of the posterior cruciate ligament of the tibial plateau.Methods From July 2014 to May 2024,A total of 29 cases of avulsion fractures at the insertion point of the posterior cruciate ligament of the tibial platform were admitted to our department.They were divided into two groups according to different surgical approaches.There were 16 cases in group A,which adopted the modified posterior approach,and 13 cases in group B,which adopted the conventional posterior approach.The therapeutic effects of the two groups of patients were evaluated by using the Lysholm knee score scale after surgery and the KOOS knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome scoring system.Results All patients were followed up for 12 to 14 months,with an average of(12.6±0.3)months.No serious adverse complications such as non-healing of the surgical site occurred in group A.In group B,there was 1 case of delayed wound healing and 8 cases of knee joint pain during movement.The Lysholm knee joint score and KOOS knee joint outcome score of patients in group A at 12 months after the operation were(88.65±9.23)points and(90.48±6.84)points respectively,and those in group B were(63.98±10.77)points and(69.37±9.01)points respectively.Both groups in group A were more satisfied than those in group B,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion For patients with avulsion fractures of the insertion point of the posterior cruciate ligament of the tibial platform,the modified minimally invasive penetrating muscle approach on the posterior side of the knee joint can reduce related complications such as excessive intraoperative bleeding,internal relaxation of the knee joint,and poor postoperative wound healing,enabling early functional exercise for patients and achieving a better prognosis.
