Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Using chemoproteomic techniques, we first identified EIF2AK2, eEF1A1, PRDX3 and VPS4B as direct targets of berberine (BBR) for its synergistically anti-inflammatory effects. Of them, BBR has the strongest affinity with EIF2AK2 via two ionic bonds, and regulates several key inflammatory pathways through EIF2AK2, indicating the dominant role of EIF2AK2. Also, BBR could subtly inhibit the dimerization of EIF2AK2, rather than its enzyme activity, to selectively modulate its downstream pathways including JNK, NF-κB, AKT and NLRP3, with an advantage of good safety profile. In EIF2AK2 gene knockdown mice, the inhibitory IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18 and TNF-α secretion of BBR was obviously attenuated, confirming an EIF2AK2-dependent anti-inflammatory efficacy. The results highlight the BBR's network mechanism on anti-inflammatory effects in which EIF2AK2 is a key target, and inhibition of EIF2AK2 dimerization has a potential to be a therapeutic strategy against inflammation-related disorders.

Objective To investigate the long-term efficacy of pure transanal total mesorectal excision (PtaTME) for middle-low rectal cancer.Methods The retrospective descriptive study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 18 patients with middle-low rectal cancer who were admitted to the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from July 2014 to August 2016 were collected.There were 7 males and 11 females,aged (58±13) years,with a range from 40 to 84 years.The body mass index was (22±3) kg/m2.All the 18 patients underwent PtaTME.Observation indicators:(1) surgical and postoperative conditions;(2) postoperative pathological examination;(3) follow-up and survival.Follow-up using inpatient reexamination,outpatient examination,and telephone interview were performed to detect anastomotic complications,anal function,urinary retention,sexual dysfunction,survival and tumor recurrence and metastasis once every 3 months within postoperative 6 months,once every 6 months from 6 months to 3 years,and once a year after 3 years up to June 2019.The measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean±SD,and the measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range).Count data were expressed as percentages.Survival rates were calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method.Results (1) Surgical and postoperative conditions:18 patients successfully underwent PtaTME,without conversion to open surgery.The operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss,distance between anastomosis and anal verge,time to first flatus,time to urinary catheter removal,and duration of postoperative hospital stay were (202±68) minutes,50 mL (range,20-400 mL),(4.5± 2.0)cm,2 days (range,2-7 days),3 days (range,2-5 days),and 7 days (range,5-10 days) in the 18 patients,respectively.There was no perioperative complication.Among 18 patients,4 underwent preventive ileostomy.(2) Postoperative pathological examinations:the length of surgical specimens,the number of lymph node dissection,distance from tumor to the distal margin were (11.0±3.0)cm,12±6,and 1.0 cm (range,0.8-3.7 cm),respectively.The 18 patients had complete mesorectal membrane excision,with negative proximal margin,distal margin,and circumferential margin.Tumor pathological staging:there were 2 cases in Tis stage,4 in T1 stage,7 in T2 stage,and 5 in T3 stage;16 in N0 stage,1 in N1 stage,and 1 in N2 stage.Tumor histological classification:2 patients had carcinoma in situ,9 had moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma,and 7 had high-differentiated adenocarcinoma.(3) Follow-up and survival:18 patients were followed up for 34.0-59.0 months,with a median follow-up time of 57.5 months.During the follow-up,4 patients developed grade B anastomotic leakage and were cured after conservative treatment.One patient developed anastomotic recurrence at 2 years after surgery,and no recurrence was found after surgical resection of the recurrent lesion.Four patients with prophylactic ileostomy had the stoma closured,and the anus function was satisfactory after surgery.There was no urinary retention or sexual dysfunction in the 18 patients.Of the 18 patients,17 had tumor free survival after surgery.The 3-year disease-free survival rate was 94.4％,and the 3-year overall survival rate was 100.0％ in 18 patients.Conclusion PtaTME can achieve high quality of specimen,which is safe and feasible for the treatment of rectal cancer.

Objective To analyze the imaging findings and pathological basis of seminoma and improve the understanding and diagnostic accuracy.Methods The imaging findings of seminoma in 67 patients proved by histopathology were analyzed retrospectively.The tumor location,size,contour,periphery,density or signal and contrast enhancement patterns were evaluated,and these were compared with the pathological results.Results All of the 67 cases were male.46 cases were located in testicular,10 cases in the pelvic cavity,6 cases in the peritoneal and retroperitoneal,4 cases in the mediastinum,1 case in the brain.On non-enhanced CT,testicular lesions appeared to be nodular or lobular masses with clear margin.Some cases showed cystic-solid masses.And the solid component was located in the edge of the lesion,and the irregular necrosis areas of low density was located in the center.Fat and calcification component were not found in the mass.After contrast administration,the masses showed heterogeneous enhancement.The thickened and tortuous testicular arteries were seen in 11 cases in arterial phase,and thickened and twisted testicular veins were seen in 9 cases in the venous phase.The imaging findings of the mass at the other location were without features.Conclusion Testicular seminoma has significant characteristics,thickened testicular arteries and/or draining veins on enhanced CT can help the diagnosis.Imaging features of extragonadal primary seminoma are not characteristic.Combined with clinical history and signs,it is possible to improve the diagnostiic accuracy of seminoma.

[Objective]This study was conducted to examine the effects of dexmedetomidine on the proliferation and angiogenesis of MHCC97H and SMCC7721 human hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)cell lines cultured in hypoxia condition in vitro,and investigated the possible mechanism involved.[Methods]MHCC97H and SMCC7721 human HCC cell lines under hypoxia culture condition were treated with presence or absence of dexmedetomidine(100 μmol/L). Cell viability,colony formation,vasculogenic mimicry(VM) formation were assessed. The effects of dexmedetomidine on α-2A adrenergic receptor(α2A),hypoxia induced factor-1a(HIF-1a),and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)protein expression were evaluated with Western blot analysis.[Results]Cell proliferation assay and colony formation assay indicated that hypoxia obviously promoted the proliferation of MHCC 97H and SMCC7721 cells(CoCl2 group vs corresponding control group,the proliferation rate of MHCC97H and SMCC7721:Day 3,142.2%and 133.8%;Day 4,134.7%and 131.0%;Day 5,133.5%and 136.2%;all P<0.05),and VM formation assay suggested that hypoxia increased angiogenesis of MHCC97H and SMCC7721 cells. Whereas dexmedetomidine significantly inhibited the proliferation(Dex+CoCl2 group vs CoCl2 group,the proliferation rate of MHCC97H and SMCC7721:Day 3,55.7%vs 60.7%;Day 4,46.9%vs 58.1%;Day 5,46.4%vs 57.0%,all P<0.05)and angiogenesis of MHCC97H,SMCC7721 cells induced by hypoxia. Dexmedetomidine may exert these functions by activating α-2A adrenergic receptor,causing an decrease in HIF-1a and VEGF protein,while hypoxia activated HIF-1a and VEGF protein to promote the growth and angiogenesis of cells.[Conclusion]The findings provide evidence that hypoxia could promote the proliferation and angiogenesis of MHCC97H and SMCC7721 cells,while dexmedetomidine might inhibit these effects by down-regulating HIF-1a and VEGF protein expression through activatingα-2A adrenergic receptor.
