Hip fracture in the elderly is characterized by high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality and has been recognized as a public health issue threatening their health. Surgery is the preferred choice for the treatment of elderly patients with hip fracture. However, lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) has an extremely high incidence rate during the perioperative period, and may significantly increase the risk of patients′ death once it progresses to pulmonary embolism. In response to this issue, the clinical guidelines and expert consensuses all emphasize active application of comprehensive preventive measures, including basic prevention, physical prevention, and pharmacological prevention. In this prevention system, basic prevention is the basis of physical and pharmacological prevention. However,there is a lack of unified and definite recommendations for basic preventive measures in clinical practice. To this end, the Orthopedic Nursing Professional Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association and Nursing Department of the Orthopedic Branch of the China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care organized relevant nursing experts to formulate Expert consensus on perioperative basic prevention for lower extremity deep venous thrombosis in elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2024) . A total of 10 recommendations were proposed, aiming to standardize the basic preventive measures for lower extremity DVT in elderly patients with hip fractures during the perioperative period and promote their subsequent rehabilitation.

Objective:To explore the application potential of 18F-Asp-Glu-val-Asp (DEVD)-Cys(StBu)-PPG(CBT)-AmBF 3 ( 18F-1; PPG: propargyl-glycine; CBT: 2-cyanobenzothiazole; AmBF 3: ammoniomethyl-trifluoroborate) PET imaging in early monitoring of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) radiotherapy response. Methods:Ten MDA-MB-231 tumor bearing nude mice models were constructed and divided into radiotherapy group ( n=5) and non-radiotherapy group ( n=5) by random sampling method. The radiotherapy group was treated with single irradiation at a dose of 8 Gy. 18F-1 microPET imaging was performed in the radiotherapy and non-radiotherapy groups, and the tumor uptake and muscle uptake in 2 groups at different time points (2.5, 7.5, 12.5, 17.5, 22.5, 27.5, 32.5, 37.5, 42.5, 47.5, 52.5, 57.5 min after injection) were analyzed. The specific uptake of the probe in apoptotic cells was verified by radioautography, HE staining and immunofluorescent staining. Repeated measures analysis of variance and one-way analysis of variance were used to analyze data. Results:18F-1 microPET imaging showed that there was significant difference between tumor uptake and muscle uptake in radiotherapy group ( F=20.27, P=0.011). The uptake of radiotherapy group was the highest at 7.5 min after injection ((4.64±0.35) percentage activity of injection dose per gram of tissue(%ID/g)). There was no significant difference between tumor uptake and muscle uptake in the non-radiotherapy group ( F=1.81, P=0.215). The tumor/muscle (T/M) ratio of radiotherapy group was higher than that of non-radiotherapy group ( F=31.95, P=0.005), with the highest at 47.5 min after injection (2.49±0.46). Radioautography showed that the tumor radioactivity in radiotherapy group was higher than that of muscle in radiotherapy group, and was also higher than tumor and muscle radioactivies in non-radiotherapy group ( F=116.79, P<0.001). HE staining and immunofluorescent staining verified that 18F-1 could specifically detect the activity of caspase-3 activated in tumor cells after radiotherapy. Conclusion:18F-1 can specifically recognize the activated caspase-3 after TNBC radiotherapy, and monitor radiotherapy response at the molecular level by apoptosis PET imaging.

The septate uterus is the most common structural uterine anomalies and it is associated with the poor reproductive outcome. It is believed to be the result of the failure in resorption of the tissue connecting the 2 paramesonephric ducts prior to the 20th embryonic week. The true prevalence of uterine septum is difficult to ascertain, as many uterine septal defects are asymptomatic. The septate uterus is usually diagnosed during an infertility evaluation and affects reproductive health by impairing fertility and increasing adverse pregnancy outcomes. The variations in uterine and cervical/vaginal anomalies collectively referred to as Müllerian anomalies. No consistent gold standard for the diagnosis of Müllerian anomalies exists. The preferred diagnostic method for Müllerian anomalies is two-dimensional ultrasound, other methods such as three-dimensional ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, hysterosalpingo contrast sonography, hysterosalpingography, hysteroscopy, and laparoscopy are also used to improve accuracy.

A new-type digital electric plum-blossom needle instrument of controllable and adjustable parameters was developed to achieve an automatic tapping instead of manual tapping technique and integrate the function of plum-blossom needle with that of micropulse electrical phase. The alternating current of periodic variation changes the direction of magnetic field around, induces the vibration of the cone head and tapping movement, outputs the micropulse current and acts on the affected area in treatment. The new-type digital electric plum-blossom needle instrument achieves the automatic tapping movement, precisely adjusts the stimulating strength and frequency according to diseases and integrates the tapping stimulation with pulse current to form circulation loop on the skin and intensify the therapeutic effects. This instrument is the big innovation of traditional plum-blossom needle. It is not only applicable for clinical treatment or family healthcare, but also for scientific research with the adoptable digital therapeutic parameters, which benefits the application and development of plum-blossom needle therapy.

Investigating the influence of acupuncture on cellular signal transduction is an efficient pathway to reveal the action mechanism of acupuncture on spinal cord injury (SCI). In this study, the experiment research literature regarding acupuncture for SCI during past 10 years was reviewed and analyzed. As a result, it was found that acupuncture could regulate the expression of the first intercellular messenger as well as the second signal molecules including cyclic adenosine monophosphate, cyclic guanosine monophosphate, Ca2+, nitric oxide to intervene the apoptotic signaling pathway, Rho/Rock signaling pathway, Wnt signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway, Notch signaling pathway, etc., which could improve regeneration and repair of SCI. In conclusion, in future researches more attention should be paid to the cellular signal transduction networks and different effects among various acupoint combinations and acupuncture modalities on cellular signal transduction, which have an essential role for revelation of clinical application rules and optimization of clinical treatment protocol.

Objective:To determine the inhibitory effect of Rupixiao ( RPX) granule on mammary gland hyperplasia ( HMG) in rabbits and explore the possible mechanism to provide reference for clinical medication. Methods:Rabbit model of mammary hyperpla-sia was established by estradiol benzoate and progesterone. Xiaoyao pills and tamoxifen were used as the positive control, and the RPX granule group was respectively at low, medium and high dose (0. 525,1. 05,2. 1 g·kg-1). Each group was with intragastric adminis-tration for 30 days. The levels of E2 , PROG, FSH, LH and PRL in serum and the expression of VEGF in the homogenate tissue were determined by an Elisa method. The breast tissue of rabbits in each group was withdrawn to observe the structure changes after Hema-toxylin-eosin staining ( HE) . Results:Ovarian preservation-benzoic acid, estradiol combined with progesterone could be used to estab-lish mammary gland hyperplasia in rabbits. RPX granule could significantly decrease the serum levels of E2 and PRL (P<0. 01)and increase that of PROG (P<0. 01 or P<0. 001). The results of pathological section showed that the breast structure in RPX granule high dose group could be restored to the level of the blank control group, which showed its therapeutic effect on HMG was better than that of tamoxifen and Xiaoyao pills. The expression of VEGF in each treatment group significantly decreased compared with that in the model group by the Elisa reagent (P<0. 001). Conclusion:RPX granule has good efficacy in HMG rabbits. The inhibitory effects of RPX granule on HMG in rabbits maybe related to the inhibition of VEGF in rabbit breast tissues, and the inhibition of RPX granule was similar to that of tamoxifen and Xiaoyao pills.

Objective To observe the effect of electroacupuncture on Caspase-9, cytochrome C (Cyt-C) and apoptotic protease activating factor 1 (Apaf-1) protein in rats with neurogenic bladder after complete spinal cord injury. Methods A total of 60 female Sprague-Dawley rats were involved, in which 36 rats were randomly selected to establish the neurogenic bladder model with T10 spinal cord transected. 24 successful models selected were randomly divided into model group (n=12) and electroacupuncture group (n=12). The other 24 rats were also randomly divided into sham group (n=12) and blank group (n=12). The electroacupuncture group was electroacupunctured on Ciliao (BL32), Zhongji (RN3), Sanyinjiao (SP6) and Dazhui (GV14) for seven days. All of them were assessed with urodynamic test, TUNEL method was used to determine the apoptosis rate of the spinal cord, and Western blotting was used to detect the expression of Caspase-9, Cyt-C and Apaf-1 protein. Results Compared with the blank group and the sham group, the maximum bladder capacity and compliance decreased (P<0.01), the urinary bladder pressure and leakage point pressure increased (P<0.05); the apoptosis rate of the spinal cord increased (P<0.001); the expression of Caspase-9, Cyt-C and Apaf-1 protein increased (P<0.05) in the model group and the electroacupuncture group. Compared with the model group, the maximum bladder capacity and compliance increased (P<0.01), the urinary bladder pressure and leakage point pressure decreased (P<0.05); the apoptosis rate of the spinal cord decreased (P<0.05); the expression of Caspase-9, Cyt-C and Apaf-1 protein decreased (P<0.05) in the electroacupuncture group. Conclusion Electroacupuncture on Ciliao, Zhongji, Sanyinjiao and Dazhui could improve the bladder function after spinal cord injury in rats. The mechanisms may be related with the down-regulation of Caspase-9, Cyt-C and Apaf-1 protein to reduce apoptosis.
