Cervical spinal cord injury without fracture-dislocation (CSCIWFD) is referred to as a special type of cervical spinal cord injury characterized by traumatic spinal cord dysfunction and no significant bony structural abnormalities on imagines. Duo to the high risk of missed diagnosis during the initial consultation, CSCIWFD may lead to progressive neurological deterioration or even complete paralysis, severely impacting patients′ prognosis. Currently, there are no established consensuses over the diagnosis and treatment of CSCIWFD, such as the lack of evidence-based standards for indications of non-surgical treatment and risk of secondary neurological injury, as well as debates over the optimal timing for surgical intervention and indications for different surgical approaches. To address these issues, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the relevant fields to formulate Diagnosis and treatment guideline for acute cervical spinal cord injury without fracture- dislocation in adults ( version 2025) . Based on evidence-based medicine and the principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability, the guidelines proposed 11 recommendations covering terminology, diagnosis, evaluation treatment, and rehabilitation, etc., aiming to standardize the management of CSCIWFD.

Objective:To characterize the vaginal flora of pregnant women during the second trimester using full-length 16S rRNA sequencing.Methods:A total of 142 pregnant women were systematically sampled from a pregnancy cohort. Vaginal swabs were collected for full-length 16S rRNA gene sequencing，and bioinformatics analysis was performed to characterize the vaginal microbiota and identify associated influencing factors.Results:Among the 142 pregnant women，the most frequently detected species were Lactobacillus iners（83.10%，118/142）and Lactobacillus crispatus（49.30%，70/142）. The majority of samples（90.85%，129/142）were classified as Lactobacillus-dominant vagitypes，with the Lactobacillus iners vagitype accounting for 48.59%（69/142）and the Lactobacillus crispatus vagitype accounting for 38.73%（55/142）. The vaginal microbiota was clustered into five community state types（CSTs）：Ⅰa，Ⅰb，Ⅲa，Ⅲb，and Ⅳ. The most prevalent CSTs were Lactobacillus iners-dominated CST-Ⅲ（51.41%，73/142）and Lactobacillus crispatus-dominated CST-Ⅰ（24.65%，35/142）. No samples were classified as CST-Ⅱ or CST-Ⅴ. A significant negative correlation was observed between Lactobacill and vaginosis-associated bacteria. Age，alcohol consumption，smoking，and vaginal treatments showed significant associations or trends toward significance with various Alpha diversity indices. Vaginal douching was associated with CST clustering，while obstetric history（primiparity，previous miscarriage history）was associated with vagitype classification. However，no significant associations were identified between maternal baseline characteristics and Beta diversity indices. Conclusions:Full-length 16S rRNA gene sequencing reveals that the vaginal microbiota of pregnant women is dominated by Lactobacillus iners and Lactobacillus crispatus. Maternal age，lifestyle factors such as smoking and alcohol consumption，and obstetric history are significantly associated with variations in vaginal microbiota composition.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of exogenous short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) preconditioning on the expression of zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) in lung tissues of rats undergoing extracorporeal circulation (ECC).Methods:Thirty-six clean-grade healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 320-420 g, were divided into sham operation group (S group), ECC group (E group) and SCFAs group, with 12 rats in each group. Seven days before the ECC, short-chain fatty acids dissolved in 2 ml of normal saline was given by gavage daily in SCFAs group, while the equal volume of normal saline was given by gavage in S group and E group. On the 8th day, E group and SCFAs group underwent arteriovenous catheterization and ECC for 1 h, while S group only underwent catheterization without ECC. Lung tissues were collected to observe the pathological results and detect the expression of ZO-1 (by Western blot), and the wet/dry lung weight ratio was calculated.Results:Compared with S group, the wet/dry lung weight ratio was significantly increased ( P<0.05), the expression of ZO-1 protein in lung tissue was down-regulated ( P<0.05), and the pathological damage of lung tissues was aggravated in E group and SCFAs group. Compared with E group, the wet/dry lung weight ratio was significantly decreased, the expression of ZO-1 protein in lung tissues was up-regulated ( P<0.05), and the pathological damage of lung tissues was significantly alleviated in SCFAs group. Conclusions:The mechanism by which SCFAs preconditioning attenuates lung injury may be related to up-regulation of ZO-1 expression in lung tissues of rats undergoing ECC.

Low-altitude unmanned technology represented by unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has shown broad application prospects in the medical field. Since June 2023, Affiliated Hospital of Jiaxing University The First Hospital of Jiaxing, focusing on the demand for medical supplies transport among hospitals, has led the construction and operation practice of a low-altitude transfer system for medical supplies featuring UAV. By establishing a management organizational structure, building a low-altitude digital intelligence platform, constructing UAV take-off and landing platforms, formulating and approving flight routes, and improving the medical supply distribution process, it successfully achieved the transportation of medical blood and biological specimens between Jiaxing Central Blood Station and relevant medical institutions, as well as among different campus and medical alliance units of Affiliated Hospital of Jiaxing University The First Hospital of Jiaxing. As of June 2024, a total of 6 routes have been opened within the Jiaxing municipal area, with a cumulative flight distance exceeding 5 000 km. A total of 64 flights for medical blood, 720 flights for blood specimens, and 5 flights for pathological specimens have been transported. Compared with land transportation methods, UAV transportation effectively shortened transportation time, enhanced the service capabilities and diagnosis and treatment quality of grassroots medical institutions, and also saved costs. It can provide a reference for other medical institutions to carry out low-altitude medical supplies distribution.

Obesity is a significant risk factor for cancer and is associated with breast cancer metastasis. Nevertheless, the mechanism by which alterations in systemic metabolism affect tumor microenvironment (TME) and consequently influence tumor metastasis remains inadequately understood. Herein, we found that perturbations in circulating metabolites induced by obesity promote metastasis-like phenotypes in breast cancer. Oleoylcarnitine (OLCarn) concentrations were elevated in the serum of obese mice and humans. Administration of exogenous OLCarn induces metastasis-like characteristics in breast cancer cells. Mechanistically, OLCarn directly interacts with the Arg176 site of adenylate cyclase 10 (ADCY10), leading to the activation of ADCY10 and enhancement of cAMP production. Mutations at Arg176 prevent OLCarn from binding to ADCY10, disrupting the ADCY10-mediated activation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling pathway. This activation promotes transcription factor 4 (TCF4)-dependent kinesin family member C1 (KIFC1) transcription, thereby driving breast cancer metastasis. Conversely, the neutralization of both ADCY10 and KIFC1 through knockdown or pharmacological inhibition abrogates the oncogenic effects mediated by OLCarn. Hence, obesity-induced systemic environmental changes lead to the aberrant accumulation of OLCarn within the TME, making it a potential therapeutic target and biomarker for breast cancer.

Myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury(MIRI)has become one of the most serious complications affecting the clinical outcome of patients with cardiovascular diseases.The immune inflammatory response of macrophages is closely related to the occurrence and development of MIRI.Many studies have shown that the NF-κB signaling pathway can participate in MIRI regulation by influencing the polarization and inflammatory state of macrophages,pyrodeath,infiltration and other functions,and is a potential target for MIRI therapy.Therefore,this article will review the research progress of NF-κB signaling pathway between macrophage function and MIRI regulation.
