Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of O-arm navigation-assisted percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) versus C-arm-guided PVP in the treatment of postoperative recurrent vertebral fractures following Kümmell′s disease.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 48 patients with postoperative recurrent vertebral fractures following Kümmell′s disease who were admitted to Zhengzhou Orthopedic Hospital from January 2021 to September 2024, including 16 males and 32 females, aged 51-85 years [(69.8±6.6)years]. Among them, 21 patients had stage I Kümmell′s disease and 27 stage II. Fractured vertebrae involved T 8-T 10 in 4 patients, T 11-L 2 in 29, and L 3-L 5 in 15. Twenty-five patients underwent O-arm navigation-assisted PVP (O-arm-assisted group) and 23 underwent C-arm-guided PVP (C-arm-guided group). The two groups were compared in terms of the operative time, intraoperative blood loss, bone cement volume, and bone cement filling saturation rate in the injured vertebral body. The visual analogue scale (VAS) scores and Oswestry disability index (ODI) values were also compared before operation, at 1 day, 1 month, 6 months after operation, and at the last follow-up. The excellent-good rate based on the MacNab criteria at the last follow-up and incidence of postoperative complications were detected. Results:All the patients were followed up for 6-24 months [(13.3±3.5)months]. There were no significant differences in the operative time, operative blood loss or bone cement volume between the two groups ( P>0.05). The O-arm-assisted group demonstrated a bone cement filling saturation rate of 96% (24/25) in the fractured vertebrae, significantly higher than 65% (15/23) in the C-arm-guided group ( P<0.05). The VAS scores before operation, at 1 day, and 1 month after operation were (8.4±1.0)points, (1.9±0.7)points, and (1.8±0.6)points, respectively in the O-arm-assisted group, while they were (8.3±0.8)points, (2.0±0.6)points, and (1.9±0.5)points, respectively in the C-arm-guided group ( P>0.05). The ODI values before operation, at 1 day, and 1 month after operation were 76.6±8.2, 20.4±4.5, and 19.8±4.1, respectively in the O-arm-assisted group, and 74.9±9.1, 21.3±3.6, and 20.9±3.2, respectively in the O-arm-assisted group ( P>0.05). At 6 months after operation and at the last follow-up, the VAS scores were (1.4±0.5)points and (1.5±0.5)points in the O-arm-assisted group, with significant improvement compared to (1.8±0.4)points and (1.9±0.3)points in the C-arm-guided group ( P<0.01); the ODI values were 17.8±3.2 and 18.2±3.5 in the O-arm-assisted group, with significant improvement compared to 19.9±3.1 and 21.3±4.0 in the C-arm-guided group ( P<0.05). Both groups demonstrated significant improvements in VAS scores and ODI values at 1 day, 1 month, 6 months after operation, and at the last follow-up, compared to those preoperatively ( P<0.05), while no statistically significant differences were found in VAS scores or ODI values at any postoperative timepoints ( P>0.05). According to the MacNab criteria, the O-arm-assisted group had a 100% (25/25) excellent-good rate, compared to 74% (17/23) in the C-arm-guided group ( P<0.05). The complication rate was 4% (1/25) in the O-arm-assisted group, significantly lower than 35% (8/23) in the C-arm-guided group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:O-arm navigation-assisted PVP for postoperative recurrent vertebral fractures following Kümmell′s disease offers advantages in precise cement delivery with sufficient dispersion, enhanced pain relief, functional recovery, improved quality of life, and reduced complication rates when compared to C-arm navigation-assisted PVP.

[Objective] To perform genetic analysis on samples with weak agglutination and mixed agglutination of ABO blood group antigens in neonates, and to investigate the molecular biological characteristics of ABO subtypes in neonates. [Methods] Serological identification of ABO blood group was performed by tube method and microcolumn gel method. The ABO exons 2-7 were amplified by PCR, and the amplified products were sequenced by Sanger sequencing method to determine the genotype. [Results] Among the ABO blood group serological results of 14 neonates, 8 cases showed weakened A antigen, and 6 cases showed weakened B antigen. Seven samples were identified with ABO subtype alleles, with genotypes as A102/B101+c.538C>T, Aw26/B102, A205/O02, A205/B101(2 cases), Aw26/O02, B(A)06/O01, B101/O01(3 cases), A102/O01(2 cases), A102/B101 and B101/O02. Additionally, three other family members were also found to carry B(A)06 allele in a pedigree investigation. [Conclusion] For samples showing weakened antigens in ABO blood type identification of neonates, it is necessary to consider the possibility of ABO subtype in addition to age factors, and genetic testing can be used to prevent missed detection of ABO subtypes in neonates.

OBJECTIVE:
To systematically search and integrate the best evidence for early rehabilitation of ICU-acquired swallowing dysfunction (ICU-ASD) using evidence-based medicine methods, providing high-quality evidence-based support for intensive care unit (ICU) healthcare professionals in implementing early rehabilitation assessment and intervention strategies for ICU-ASD.
METHODS:
The systematic search was conducted according to the "6S" pyramid evidence model. Multiple authoritative databases and resources were comprehensively searched, including: National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC), National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), Canadian Medical Association Clinical Practice Guidelines Library (CMACPGL), New Zealand Guidelines Group (NZGG), Guidelines International Network (GIN), Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario (RNAO), Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN), PubMed/Medline, Cochrane Library, Embase, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Web of Science, JBI Evidence-Based Health Care Database, Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro), Chinese Medical Pulse Guidelines Website, SinoMed, CNKI, Wanfang Data, UpToDate, BMJ Best Practice, and professional association websites. The search encompassed guidelines, expert consensus statements, original studies [including cohort studies, quasi-experimental studies, and randomized controlled trials (RCT)], systematic reviews, and evidence summaries related to the prevention and management of ICU-ASD. The search period was limited from the inception of each database to November 30, 2024. The best evidence for early rehabilitation of ICU-ASD was summarized. The quality assessment of the literature and the extraction and synthesis of evidence were independently performed by two researchers with expertise in evidence-based medicine methodology.
RESULTS:
A total of 16 articles were included, consisting of 1 clinical decision-making study, 1 cohort study, 2 guidelines, 2 RCTs, 6 systematic reviews, 1 evidence summary, 2 expert consensuses, and 1 expert opinion. Following quality assessment, all 16 articles were incorporated into the analysis. For the early rehabilitation of ICU-ASD, five major themes were ultimately identified and 25 best evidence items were summarized, focusing on: multidisciplinary collaboration, swallowing screening and assessment, rehabilitation interventions, dietary and nutritional management, and oral hygiene.
CONCLUSIONS
The evidence summary provides individualized rehabilitation strategies for ICU-ASD patients, but their implementation still needs to be adapted to China's clinical practice context and patient preferences.

Objective: To explore the positive rate and distribution characteristics of unexpected antibodies in hospitalized children. Methods: A total of 22 336 hospitalized pediatric patients admitted to Henan Children's Hospital from August 2018 to September 2022 were selected as the research subjects, and their relevant clinical data were collected. Blood samples of the patients were subjected to blood type identification and unexpected antibody screening. For samples with positive screening results, further antibody specificity identification was conducted using panel cells. The distribution patterns of unexpected antibodies across different genders, age groups, blood types, and disease categories were analyzed, and inter-group differences were compared. Results: Of the 22 336 patients, 286 (1.3%) tested positive for unexpected antibodies. The most frequently identified specificities belonged to the MNS blood group system (45.1%, 129/286), followed by the Rh system (24.5%, 70/286) and antibodies of undetermined specificity (24.5%, 70/286). Less common specificities included those from the P blood group system (2.4%, 7/286), Lewis blood group system (1.4%, 4/286), mixed antibodies from multiple systems (0.9%, 3/286), drug-induced antibodies (0.7%, 2/286), and LW blood group system (0.3%, 1/286). Within the MNS blood group system, anti-M was the most prevalent (129 cases). In the Rh blood group system, anti-E (30 cases, 10.5%) and anti-D (28 cases, 9.8%) were the main antibodies detected; other antibodies included anti-DE (4 cases, 1.4%), anti-DC (3 cases, 1.0%), anti-Ec (3 cases, 1.0%), and anti-c (2 cases, 0.7%). Only anti-P
was identified in the P blood group system (7 cases), while anti-Lea was found in the Lewis blood group system (4 cases) and anti-LW in the LW blood group system (1 case). Mixed antibodies from multiple systems consisted of anti-D+Fy
, anti-e+Fy
, and anti-Le
+P
, with 1 case (0.3%) each. Among the antibodies with undefined specificity, 26 cases were autoantibodies. All drug-induced antibodies were anti-CD38 (2 cases). The distribution of unexpected antibodies showed statistically significant differences among different genders, ages, and ABO blood types (P<0.05). Regarding age distribution, Rh blood group antibodies associated with hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) were predominant in the 0-1 month group, which differed significantly from all other age groups (P<0.001). In contrast, anti-M was predominant in children over 1 year of age (89.0%), while anti-E was detected in only 3 cases (10.0%) in children over 3 years old. After Bonferroni correction (α' = 0.003 3), a statistically significant difference was observed only between the 6-17 year group and the 1-3 year group (P=0.003). Among ABO blood types, type B had the highest antibody detection rate. Following Bonferroni correction (α' ≈ 0.008 3), a significant difference in detection rates was found solely between type B and type O blood (P=0.005), with no statistically significant differences among other blood types (P>0.008 3). Conclusion: In hospitalized pediatric patients, unexpected antibodies were mainly distributed in the MNS and Rh blood group systems, with anti-M being the most commonly detected specificity and anti-E the most prevalent within the Rh system.. Sex, age and blood type significantly influence the development of unexpected antibodies. Clinically, it is necessary to pay attention to the prenatal monitoring of unexpected antibodies in pregnant women, so as to achieve homotypic transfusion of other Rh antigens as early as possible.

Background::Colorectal cancer (CRC) still ranks the top in morbidity and mortality of cancers worldwide, posing a huge threat and burden to the society. We aimed to determine the age-standardized incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of CRC and explore potential changes in the temporal trends of the CRC burden in Shanghai during 2002 to 2016.Methods::The cancer statistics and demographics were obtained from the Cancer Registry and the Statistics Bureau of Pudong New Area, respectively. Data from 2002 to 2016 were included and analyzed retrospectively. DALYs were calculated using DisMod and the age-standardized rates (ASRs) were obtained according to Segi world standard population. Joinpoint regression was used to measure the trends in CRC incidence and to estimate the annual percent change.Results::The increasing trend of CRC ASR incidence halted after 2014, coinciding with the introduction of the Shanghai CRC screening program. The ASRs of mortality and DALYs increased, at 0.42% ( P < 0.05) and 4.07% ( P < 0.001) per year, respectively, which were mainly driven by men and individuals aged above the CRC screening program target. Conclusions::The disease burden of CRC in Shanghai remains serious, especially among men, and individuals aged >74 years. The benefits of the screening program have been partially proven by the ASRs of CRC incidence, providing important insights into better and wider application of screening programs.
