For middle-aged and elderly patients with conditions such as spinal fractures and degenerative spinal diseases, spinal internal fixation is a core surgical procedure for reconstructing spinal stability, heavily relying on the biomechanical stability provided by pedicle screw systems. Whereas, these patients are often complicated by osteoporosis that can significantly compromise the stability of the bone-pedicle screw interface, leading to a marked increase in pedicle screw loosening and surgical failure rates. The bone cement-augmented pedicle screw technique, which involves injecting bone cement into the vertebral body or screw trajectory to optimize the mechanical properties of the bone-pedicle screw composite, has been proven to significantly enhance fixation strength and effectively prevent screw-related failures, thereby reducing the incidence of internal fixation failure in high-risk populations undergoing spinal fusion. However, the widespread clinical application of this technique has faced challenges such as inaccurate clinical decision-making (indication and contraindication selection), non-standardized operative practices, and insufficient awareness of complication prevention, resulting in considerable variability in clinical outcomes and even severe complications. To address this, Prof. Luo Fei from First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University initiated the project and the Chinese Association Orthopaedic Surgeons organized relevant experts to develop the Evidence-based clinical practice guideline for bone cement-augmented pedicle screw technique ( version 2025), based on current evidence. The guidelines put forward 8 recommendations regarding the clinical value, scope of application, and operational standards of the technique, aiming to provide evidence-based medical support and technical standardization for clinical decision-making.

Objective To explore the effect of a multicomponent exercise and cognitive stimulation program in elderly patients with mental disorders and sarcopenia,so as to provide references for reducing the risk of falls,preventing and improving sarcopenia,and enhancing cognitive function in patients.Methods The multi-component exercise and cognitive stimulation program was formulated through literature review and expert meeting.In this quasi-experimental study,76 elderly patients with mental disorders and sarcopenia who were hospitalized in a tertiary mental health center in Shanghai from January 2023 to February 2024 were selected as research subjects.They were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group according to their hospitalization building number(38 cases in each group).The experimental group was treated with multicomponent exercise combined with cognitive stimulation program based on routine nursing,and the control group was treated with routine nursing.The risk of falls,skeletal muscle mass,muscle strength,physical function,cognitive function,and incidence of adverse events were compared between 2 groups after 12 weeks of intervention.Results A total of 75 patients with 37 in the control group and 38 in the experimental group completed the study.The TUG time,6M walking speed and the score of Short Physical Performance Bettery of the experimental group were all lower than those of the control group(P＜0.05),and the scores of skeletal muscle mass,muscle strength,calf circumference,physical function and cognitive function of the experimental group were all higher than those of the control group(P＜0.05).Neither group experienced any adverse events.Conclusion The application of this multicomponent exercise combined cognitive stimulation program developed for elderly patients with mental disorders and sarcopenia can effectively reduce the risk of falls,enhance the skeletal muscle mass and muscle strength and improve the cognitive function in elderly patients with mental disorders and sarcopenia.

Objective: To investigate of e-cigarette use among middle school students in Hainan Province, so as to provide insights into tobacco control among adolescents. Methods: Students were randomly sampled using a multistage stratified cluster random sampling method from three junior high schools, two high schools and one vocational high school in Hainan Province from July to October, 2021. Participants' basic features, use of e-cigarettes, e-cigarette advertising exposure were collected using the Questionnaire on Tobacco and Alcohol Prevalence among Chinese Adolescents in 2021 prepared by Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Following data weighting, students' use of e-cigarettes and exposure to e-cigarette advertisements were descriptively analyzed, and factors affecting current use of e-cigarettes were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 8 561 questionnaires were allocated, and 8 538 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 99.73%. The respondents included 4 470 boys (52.35%) and 4 068 girls (47.65%), and there 4 367 junior high school students (51.15%), 3 482 high school students (40.78%), and 689 vocational high school students (8.07%). The rate of e-cigarette use was 25.01% and the rate of current e-cigarette use was 4.68%. There were 2 728 respondents with exposure to e-cigarette advertising during the past 30 days, and the number of weighted individuals were 210 932 (32.60%). The route of e-cigarette advertising exposure mainly included point-of-sale (21.59%), stores (13.61%), and shopping websites (9.01%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified region (OR=0.610, 95%CI: 0.482-0.772), males (OR=1.332, 95%CI: 1.062-1.669), high school students (OR=0.376, 95%CI: 0.259-0.545), companion smoking (OR=6.645, 95%CI: 4.935-8.948) and advertising exposure (OR=3.229, 95%CI: 2.581-4.040) as factors affecting current use of e-cigarettes. Conclusions The use of e-cigarettes among middle school students is higher in Hainan Province than the national level, and exposure to e-cigarette advertisements may facilitate use of e-cigarettes. It is necessary to strengthen the supervision of e-cigarettes, strictly restrict e-cigarettes advertisements and promotions.

Enzyme-driven micro/nanomotors consuming in situ chemical fuels have attracted lots of attention for biomedical applications. However, motor systems composed by organism-derived organics that maximize the therapeutic efficacy of enzymatic products remain challenging. Herein, swimming proteomotors based on biocompatible urease and human serum albumin are constructed for enhanced antitumor therapy via active motion and ammonia amplification. By decomposing urea into carbon dioxide and ammonia, the designed proteomotors are endowed with self-propulsive capability, which leads to improved internalization and enhanced penetration in vitro. As a glutamine synthetase inhibitor, the loaded l-methionine sulfoximine further prevents the conversion of toxic ammonia into non-toxic glutamine in both tumor and stromal cells, resulting in local ammonia amplification. After intravesical instillation, the proteomotors achieve longer bladder retention and thus significantly inhibit the growth of orthotopic bladder tumor in vivo without adverse effects. We envision that the as-developed swimming proteomotors with amplification of the product toxicity may be a potential platform for active cancer treatment.

AIM: To observe the effects of single-dose of fentanyl on sedation and agitation during recovery after pediatric adenotonsillectomy day surgery during anesthesia induction. METHODS: A total of 157 children undergoing elective adenotonsillectomy, with ASA physical status I or II, aged 3-10 years were selected during January and March in 2022 in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University. The children were divided into two groups according to random number table method: remifentanil combined with fentanyl group (group RF, n = 78) and remifentanil group (group R, n = 79). Children in group RF received a single-dose injection of 1 μg/kg of fentanyl and 2.5 μg/kg of remifentanil during induction, children in group R received an equal volume of normal saline and 2.5 μg/kg of remifentanil injection. Children in both groups were intubated after propofol induction and anesthetized with combination of sevoflurane-remifentanil. The incidence and severity of emergence agitation (EA), Ramsay sedation score and FLACC pain score in post-anesthesia care unit (PACU), extubation time, recovery time, PACU stay time, discharge time were recorded. RESULTS: Compared with group R, the incidence of EA was significantly lower (38.0% vs. 18.0%, P = 0.005), the maximum PAED score during recovery was significantly lower (7.7 ±3.3 vs. 8.9 ± 3.4, P = 0.027), and the Ramsay sedation score was significantly higher at 15 min after admission of PACU (4.4 ± 1.1 vs. 3.8 ± 1.4, P = 0.01), as well as discharge of PACU (2.0 ± 0.3 vs. 1.8 ±0.4, P = 0.03) in RF group . There was no significant difference in extubation time, recovery time, PACU stay time, discharge time, pain score (discharge of PACU and 2 h after operation) between two groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: A single-dose injection of fentanyl (1 μg/kg) during anesthesia induction can increase the degree of sedation and reduce the incidence of EA in PACU after pediatric daytime adenotonsillectomy.
