ObjectivePost-ischemic acute inflammation and the subsequent persistent dysregulation of the immune microenvironment represent major pathological drivers that aggravate neuronal injury and severely restrict functional recovery following ischemic stroke. Although current reperfusion therapies partially restore blood flow, they fail to effectively modulate the secondary inflammatory cascade and oxidative stress, which remain critical barriers to neurological restoration. To address this challenge, this study aimed to engineer and systematically evaluate a biomimetic nanosystem composed of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)-loaded platelet membrane-camouflaged lipid nanoparticles (PLP). This nanosystem was designed to achieve dual lesion-targeted delivery and immune microenvironment remodeling. By verifying its spatiotemporal accumulation, anti-inflammatory activity, and neuroprotective efficacy, we sought to establish an integrated therapeutic strategy that simultaneously enables lesion targeting, immune regulation, and functional recovery after ischemic injury. MethodsThe physicochemical properties of PLP, including hydrodynamic particle size, zeta potential, structural stability, and morphology, were characterized using dynamic light scattering, zeta potential analysis, and transmission electron microscopy. The preservation of platelet membrane-derived adhesion and immunoregulatory proteins was confirmed by SDS-PAGE through comparative analysis of protein band profiles between PLP and native platelet membranes. The in vitro biological activities of PLP were evaluated using two complementary cellular models. LPS-induced M1-polarized RAW264.7 macrophages were employed to assess inflammatory modulation, while oxygen glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R)-induced BV2 microglial cells and SH-SY5Y neuronal cells were utilized to investigate neuroinflammatory regulation and neuronal protection. For in vivo validation, a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) mouse model was established to mimic ischemia-reperfusion injury. The spatiotemporal biodistribution and lesion-targeting capability of the PLP were monitored through live fluorescence imaging. Therapeutic efficacy was comprehensively evaluated by triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) immunofluorescence analysis, body weight monitoring, and neurological severity score (NSS) assessment. ResultsPLP nanoparticles displayed a uniform spherical morphology, nanoscale particle size distribution, and stable negative surface charge, indicating favorable colloidal stability and circulation potential. SDS-PAGE results confirmed the effective retention of key platelet membrane proteins associated with endothelial adhesion, immune evasion, and inflammatory regulation, demonstrating the successful biomimetic construction. Optimal therapeutic concentrations were determined in OGD/R-induced BV2 cells, where PLP exhibited excellent cytocompatibility and anti-inflammatory activity.In vitro experiments demonstrated that PLP significantly inhibited the polarization of RAW264.7 macrophages toward the pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype and markedly reduced neuronal apoptosis under ischemia-reperfusion conditions. In vivo fluorescence imaging revealed that PLP rapidly accumulated in the ischemic brain hemisphere and maintained prolonged retention for up to 7 d, suggesting enhanced lesion-specific targeting and sustained drug release. Compared with control group, PLP treatment significantly reduced cerebral infarct volume, attenuated reactive astrogliosis, improved weight recovery, and accelerated neurological functional restoration, as reflected by significantly improved NSS scores. ConclusionThis study establishes a multifunctional biomimetic nanoplatform that integrates platelet membrane-mediated active targeting with the anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, and neuroprotective properties of TGF-β1. The PLP system enables rapid lesion homing and long-term retention while synergistically regulating the post-stroke inflammatory microenvironment by suppressing pro-inflammatory immune activation, reducing neuronal apoptosis, and limiting excessive astrocyte reactivity. Importantly, this study proposes a conceptually therapeutic paradigm that combines targeted delivery with immune microenvironment remodeling to achieve comprehensive neurovascular protection. These findings provide strong experimental evidence supporting the translational potential of biomimetic nanotherapeutics as next-generation precision interventions for ischemic stroke.

Objective To assess the efficacy and the survival rate of the hip joint following the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head(ONFH)with ultrasound-guided percutaneous intra-articular platelet-rich plasma(PRP)injection in combination with percutaneous silver needle thermalolysis.Methods Fifty-six patients diag-nosed with ARCO(Association Research Circulation Osseous)stage Ⅱ ONFH were randomly allocated into two groups.The first group,designated as the PRP injection combined with silver needle thermalolysis group(Group R,n=28),and the second group,the steroid injection combined with silver needle thermalolysis group(Group S,n=28).Both groups underwent three injections(administered at 4-week intervals)and one session of silver needle thermalolysis.Outcome measures,including the Numerical Rating Scale(NRS)for pain assessment,Harris Hip Score(HHS),daily consumption of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs(etoricoxib)and tramadol,progression to ARCO stage Ⅲ,and the rates of surgical intervention,were recorded at baseline,3 days,and 1,3,6,and 12 months after the treatment.Results When compared to the baseline,both groups manifested significant decreases in NRS scores and enhancements in HHS at all follow-up time points(P<0.05).Specifically,Group R demonstrated more favorable outcomes compared to Group S.At 3,6,and 12 months,Group R had lower NRS scores(P<0.01)and more notable improvements in HHS(P<0.01).Additionally,the daily analgesic consumption(etoricoxib and tramadol)in Group R was significantly lower than that in Group S at 3,6,and 12 months(P<0.01).Moreover,Group R exhibited a significantly lower progression rate to ARCO stage III and a lower hip replacement surgery rate(P<0.05).Conclusions Ultrasound-guided intra-articular PRP injection in combination with silver needle therma-lolysis expedites pain alleviation,enhances hip function,reduces analgesic dependence,and retards the progression of ONFH.This approach thus represents a clinically viable option for early-stage intervention.

Objective:To understand the development status of maternal and child health care institutions in China from 2012 to 2022, identify the challenges they face, and provide references for further promoting the high-quality development of these institutions.Methods:Data from the China Health Statistics Yearbook (2013—2015), China Health and Family Planning Statistics Yearbook (2016—2017), and China Health and Wellness Statistics Yearbook (2018—2023) were used. Descriptive analysis was conducted on the data related to resource allocation and utilization efficiency, service provision, income and expenditure structure, and operational status of maternal and child health care institutions in China from 2012 to 2022, using methods such as fixed-base growth rate, year-on-year growth rate, and average annual growth rate. Results:From 2012 to 2022, the number of maternal and child health care institutions in China decreased from 3 044 to 3 031. In terms of resource allocation, the average annual growth rates of bed numbers and business-use floor area were 5.404% and 10.923%, respectively, while the average annual growth rate of health professionals was 7.183%. Regarding service provision, the average annual growth rates of outpatient visits and inpatient admissions were 3.954% and 1.572%, respectively. In terms of service efficiency, the bed occupancy rate decreased from 76.9% to 53.9%, and the average number of patients seen per physician per day decreased from 8.85 to 7.30. In terms of income and expenditure and operations, the income-expenditure surplus rate decreased from 9.16% to 5.41%, and the debt-to-asset ratio increased from 27.88% to 33.60%. During the same period, the average annual growth rates of bed numbers and business-use floor area in grassroots maternal and child health care institutions were 4.545% and 10.091%, respectively, lower than the national average. The number of outpatient visits increased from 89.03 million to 126.93 million, with an average annual growth rate of 3.610%, while the number of inpatient admissions decreased from 4.19 million to 3.91 million, with an average annual decline of 0.689%. The income-expenditure surplus rate of grassroots institutions decreased from 7.76% to 4.05%, 1.36 percentage points lower than the national level, and the debt-to-asset ratio increased from 27.53% to 36.37%, higher than the overall level.Conclusions:From 2012 to 2022, maternal and child health care institutions in China achieved certain developments in resource allocation and service scale. However, several challenges remain, including unbalanced resource allocation, decreased utilization efficiency, slowed growth in medical service volume, imbalanced income and expenditure structure, increased asset operation risks, and restricted development of grassroots institutions. It is recommended that relevant management departments and maternal and child health care institutions optimize resource allocation, plan for service transformation and upgrading, expand income sources, strengthen internal financial control, and reinforce the construction of high-quality and efficient maternal and child health care systems to promote the high-quality development of maternal and child health care institutions in China.

The theory of "holism of five organs" highly encapsulates the understanding of TCM on the integrity, connectivity, and unity of the internal life functions and morphological structures of the human body. Functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) frequently overlap, and TCM has significant advantages in their prevention and treatment based on the theory of the holistic view and syndrome differentiation and treatment. Exosomes are extracellular vesicles whose secretory form and biological functions fully reflect the "holism of five organs", and they are of great value in the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of overlap of symptoms of FGIDs. This article interpreted the relationship between exosomes and overlap of symptoms of FGIDs with the "holism of five organs", aiming to provide new ideas and methods for the prevention and treatment of overlap of symptoms of FGIDs, as well as partly explain the scientific connotation of the theory of "holism of five organs".

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the clinical significance of trisomy 7 signaled by non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT).
METHODS:
Pregnant women with high risk for trisomy 7 by NIPT from January 2017 to December 2023 were selected as the study subjects, and the results of prenatal diagnosis and follow-up were analyzed. Literature related to pregnant women with a high risk for trisomy 7 by NIPT from January 2016 to July 2024 was retrieved from China Biomedical Literature Database, Wanfang Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and PubMed database. Relevant information such as the incidence of trisomy 7 by NIPT, positive predictive value (PPV), and pregnancy outcomes were collected. This study has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Lianyungang Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital (Ethics No. JS2022010).
RESULTS:
A total of 51 women with a high risk for trisomy 7 by NIPT were identified. Thirty-two of them had chosen chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) of amniotic fluid cells, and 1 case of mosaic trisomy 7 was detected, which had yielded a PPV of 3.13%. Four women had opted termination of pregnancy, 1 had miscarriage, 4 had pre-term and/or low weight birth, whilst the remaining 42 (82.4%) had full-term delivery. In total 19 literature were retrieved, which had involved 278 cases of trisomy 7 signaled by NIPT, among which 5 fetuses with mosaic trisomy 7 (3.14%) were confirmed. Among the 211 women with follow-up outcomes, 2 (0.95%) had intrauterine growth restriction, 3 (1.42%) had abnormal fetal structure detected by ultrasound, 2 (0.95%) had miscarriage, 9 (4.27%) underwent pregnancy termination, 28 (13.27%) had preterm and/or low weight birth, whilst 167 (79.14%) had normal delivery. In 18 cases, chromosomal analysis of placental tissue was carried out, and 17 were confirmed to have mosaicism trisomy 7.
CONCLUSION
The PPV for trisomy 7 signaled by NIPT is extremely low. Although most of such women had a full term delivery, adverse pregnancy outcomes may still occur in a minority of cases. Clinicians should provide adequate genetic counseling for such women and recommend appropriate prenatal diagnosis strategies and optimal perinatal management plans.
