SMYD5 is a ribosomal methyltransferase with SET and MYND structural domains, which is a member of the SMYD family and is expressed in a variety of tissues, including ovary and testis. This enzyme participates in biological processes such as gene expression regulation, cell development and differentiation, and maintenance of genomic stability through ribosomal protein methylation modification. In recent years, research on SMYD5 has increased in cancers including hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric adenocarcinoma, and lung cancer. Studies have revealed that SMYD5 exhibits high expression levels in various diseases including hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric adenocarcinoma, lung cancer, and inflammatory bowel disease, influencing the progression of these conditions. This review summarizes the role of SMYD5 in hepatocellular carcinoma, inflammatory bowel disease, and other biological functions, aiming to provide a reference for related disease research.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Pituitary adenoma is a common intracranial tumor, and endoscopic endonasal surgery has become one of its primary treatment modalities. Intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) technology can provide surgeons with real-time imaging during surgery, significantly enhancing surgical precision and safety. This case report retrospectively analyzes a case of recurrent pituitary adenoma treated at the Department of Neurosurgery, Huashan Hospital, Fudan University. During endoscopic endonasal surgery, the iMRI revealed residual tumor tissue located above the scar from previous surgery. With the aid of neuronavigation, the surgeon precisely identified and incised the proliferative fibrous tissue that had been misidentified as the diaphragma sellae, successfully removing the concealed tumor and achieving gross total resection. Postoperatively, the patient experienced marked improvement in visual acuity, preserved normal pituitary function, and had no cerebrospinal fluid leakage. Based on this case and relevant literature, this paper discusses the advantages of iMRI in endoscopic endonasal surgery and its potential to improve patient outcomes, aiming to provide reference and guidance for clinical practice.

To enhance patients′ medical experience, a major Grade-A tertiary hospital has chosen its cardio-cerebrovascular disease branch with excellent specialty and prominent aging problems for innovative outpatient service systems. It created a comprehensive outpatient nursing post that integrated multiple departments of outpatient services, providing outpatient nursing services and related medical services such as outpatient office, medical insurance, and finance. By breaking the limitations of professional services, adjusting the outpatient service space, establishing standardized personnel training, assessment, and incentive mechanisms, and establishing an effective quality management system, the patients could complete all medical services without leaving the consultation area. The processing time for comprehensive patient services has been shortened from around 10 min to 1~5 min. In 2023, the complaint rate of the outpatients in the cardio-cerebrovascular disease branch was 0.89 times per 10 000 people, lower than the average of 1.37 times per 10 000 people in the entire hospital. The average satisfaction score of the outpatients from the branch was 93.9 points, higher than the 89.6 points of the entire hospital, achieving satisfactory results.

Objective:To investigate the association between programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and its ligand PD-L1 and cytokines in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).Methods:Using the GSE54248 dataset from the GEO database, differentially expressed PD1/PD-L1 pathway-related genes in PCOS were identified and subjected to GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis. In this case-control study, totally 105 patients with PCOS (named PCOS group) and 109 non-PCOS patients (named control group) who were treated at the Reproductive Assisted Reproduction Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2022 to June 2023 were recruited. The QBPlex flow cytometry high-throughput multiplex assay was utilized to assess the peripheral blood levels of PD-L1, PD-L2, PD-1, and cytokines in PCOS group and control group. Pearson's method was used for correlation analysis.Results:In PCOS group, the PD-1 level in peripheral blood [2.890 (0.020, 4.540) ng/L] was significantly lower than that of control group [3.370 (2.460, 4.360) ng/L, P=0.008], the PD-L1 level [9.820 (8.860, 10.880) ng/L] was lower than that in control group [10.410 (9.700, 11.160) ng/L, P=0.001]. There was no significant difference in the expression level of PD-L2 between the two groups ( P>0.05). From the GSE54248 dataset, 26 differentially expressed genes were identified, primarily enriched in the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway, Th1 and Th2 cell differentiation, and pathways associated with the production of cytokines involved in inflammatory responses. Compared with control group, PCOS group exhibited a significant decrease in the peripheral blood concentrations of interleukin (IL)-5, IL-9, IL-25, IL-10, growth stimulation expressed gene 2 (ST-2), and Granzyme B, and a significant increase in IL-8, IL-1RA, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels, with all differences being statistically significant (all P<0.05). PD-1 exhibited positive correlations with the levels of IL-1RA, ST-2, and TNF-α ( r=0.270, P=0.005; r=0.213, P=0.029; r=0.291, P=0.003), while it exhibited negative correlations with the levels of IL-9, IL-25, and Granzyme B ( r=-0.322, P<0.001; r=-0.211, P=0.031; r=-0.369, P<0.001). PD-L1 demonstrated positive correlations with the levels of IL-9, IL-25, and Granzyme B ( r=0.254, P=0.009; r=0.330, P<0.001; r=0.340, P<0.001), and a negative correlation with IL-10 level ( r=-0.373, P=0.009). Conclusion:The expression of PD-1 and PD-L1 in the peripheral blood of PCOS patients is down-regulated, which may be associated with an imbalance in Th1/Th2 cytokines and serve as potential molecular biomarkers for the treatment of PCOS.
