Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is an emerging molecular imaging technique that combines high spatial resolution and the ability to acquire molecular information. This technology can directly obtain spatial distribution maps of metabolites, proteins, lipids and other molecules in tumor tissues, reveal the abnormal molecular changes during the occurrence and development of liver cancer, and make up for the deficiency of information at the molecular level in traditional imaging (such as CT, MRI). In liver cancer research, MSI has demonstrated unique advantages and application potential in early diagnosis and screening, precise classification, tumor heterogeneity analysis, and exploration of molecular mechanisms. The principle characteristics of MSI technology and its latest progress in the early diagnosis, classification and molecular mechanism research of liver cancer were reviewed, and the current challenges and future development directions were discussed, which aimed to provide a new perspective and theoretical basis for an in-depth understanding of the pathological mechanism of liver cancer and promoted its precise diagnosis and treatment.

BackgroundThe mental health issues of medical staff have received increasing attention. Previous studies have mainly focused on the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors, but there is a lack of sufficient understanding of the heterogeneity characteristics of the depression-anxiety symptoms network among medical staff. ObjectiveTo compare the differences in the depression-anxiety symptoms network between medical staff and community residents, so as to provide references for the promotion of the mental health of medical staff. MethodsFrom June 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024, a stratified random sampling method was used to recruit 1 959 medical staff from public hospitals and community health centers in 9 townships (industrial parks) of Dongguan City, Guangdong Province, as well as 2 412 community residents in this area, were selected as the research subjects. The general situation questionnaire, Patients' Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item (PHQ-9), and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 item (GAD-7) were used for investigation. The network visualization was conducted using the qgraph package of R 4.0.0. The centrality indicators of the network were calculated using the networktools package. The reliability of the network structure was evaluated using the bootnet package. The differences in the depression-anxiety symptoms network between medical staff and community residents were compared using the NetworkComparisionTest package. ResultsA total of 1 792 medical staff and 2 110 community residents completed the survey. The numbers of medical staff with mild, moderate and severe depressive symptoms were 381 (21.26%), 217 (12.11%) and 169 (9.43%), respectively, while the numbers of community residents were 322 (15.26%), 98 (4.64%) and 66 (3.13%), respectively. The numbers of medical staff with mild, moderate and severe anxiety symptoms were 411 (22.94%), 126 (7.03%) and 93 (5.19%), respectively, while the numbers of community residents were 320 (15.17%), 73 (3.46%) and 18 (0.85%), respectively. The comparison of the detection rates of depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms between the two groups showed statistically significant differences (χ2=152.012, 205.953, P<0.01). The network analysis results showed that the core symptom clusters of medical staff were "uncontrollable worry" "psychomotor retardation" "inability to relax", and "depression", while those of community residents were "uncontrollable worry" "inability to relax" "inferiority complex", and "depression". There was a statistically significant difference in the network structure between the two groups (M=0.275, P<0.05), and the overall connection strength of medical staff was lower than that of community residents (7.523 vs. 7.950, S=0.426, P<0.05). ConclusionThe detection rates of depression and anxiety symptoms among medical staff were higher than those among community residents. The depression-anxiety symptoms network of medical staff was more concentrated, and the core symptoms were more prominent.[Funded by Social Development and Technology Project of Dongguan City (number, 20221800902552)]

Digital technologies have become an integral part of complete denture restoration. With advancement in computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM), tools such as intraoral scanning, facial scanning, 3D printing, and numerical control machining are reshaping the workflow of complete denture restoration. Unlike conventional methods that rely heavily on clinical experience and manual techniques, digital technologies offer greater precision, predictability, and efficacy. They also streamline the process by reducing the number of patient visits and improving overall comfort. Despite these improvements, the clinical application of digital complete denture restoration still faces challenges that require further standardization. The major issues include appropriate case selection, establishing consistent digital workflows, and evaluating long-term outcomes. To address these challenges and provide clinical guidance for practitioners, this expert consensus outlines the principles, advantages, and limitations of digital complete denture technology. The aim of this review was to offer practical recommendations on indications, clinical procedures and precautions, evaluation metrics, and outcome assessment to support digital restoration of complete denture in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic efficacy of targeted biopsy(TB)combined with ipsilateral hemiglandular systematic biopsy(SB)of the dominant lesion,so as to explore a novel reduced-core biopsy strategy.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 299 patients treated in our hospital during Sep.1,2022,and Feb.28,2023,who had a Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System(PI-RADS)score ≥3 and underwent combined TB and SB.The dominant lesion was defined as the lesion with the highest PI-RADS score on multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging(mpMRI);in cases of identical scores,the largest was designated as the dominant.SB was categorized as ipsilateral(ipsi-SB)or contralateral(contra-SB)to the dominant lesion.The consistency in detecting clinically significant prostate cancer(csPCa)was compared between TB with ipsi-SB(TB+ipsi-SB),TB with contra-SB(TB+contra-SB),and TB with SB(TB+SB).Subgroup analyses were performed based on PI-RADS score,prostate-specific antigen(PSA)level,prostate volume(PV),and mpMRI lesion distribution to evaluate csPCa detection rates across different variables.Results TB+ipsi-SB demonstrated comparable detection rate to TB+SB(46.2%vs.46.8%).The K values for TB+ipsi-SB and TB+contra-SB relative to TB+SB were 0.987(95%CI:0.969-1.000,P<0.01)and 0.933(95%CI:0.892-0.974,P<0.01),respectively.Across all subgroups,TB+ipsi-SB showed the highest agreement with TB+SB.Notably,in subgroups with PI-RADS 3 and 5,PSA>0-20 ng/mL,PV<25 mL,bilateral or multiple mpMRI lesions,TB+ipsi-SB achieved complete concordance with TB+SB in csPCa detection[K=1.000(95%CI:1.000-1.000),P<0.01].Conclusion For patients with PI-RADS score ≥3,TB+ipsi-SB exhibits near-perfect consistency with TB+SB in csPCa detection while requiring fewer biopsy cores.TB+ipsi-SB represents a promising refinement of the TB+SB approach.

Depressive disorder is a common psychiatric condition clinically characterized by impaired cognitive function, which profoundly affects patients' daily living and social functioning. Despite extensive research on the mechanism underlying the interaction between ghrelin and depressive disorder, comprehensive reviews, summary, and systematic organization of these findings remain lacking. To address this gap, this study aims to conduct a systematic evaluation of the effects and mechanisms of ghrelin on cognitive function in patients with depressive disorder, thereby providing references for targeted clinical interventions. On October 20, 2024, literature exploring the role and mechanisms of ghrelin in improving cognitive function in depressive disorder was sourced from the CNKI, PubMed and Web of Science databases, covering the period from the inception of the database till October 20, 2024. Two researchers independently conducted literature screening and data extraction. Ultimately, 9 articles were included in this review. The findings suggest that ghrelin improves cognitive function in patients with depressive disorder through multiple mechanisms, including mitigating inflammatory responses, modulating oxidative stress, and activating the cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element binding protein-brain-derived neurotrophic factor (CREB-BDNF) signaling pathway.

BACKGROUND:
Delayed platelet engraftment is a common complication after umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT), and there is no standard therapy. Avatrombopag (AVA) is a second-generation thrombopoietin (TPO) receptor agonist (TPO-RA) that has shown efficacy in immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). However, few reports have focused on its efficacy in patients diagnosed with thrombocytopenia after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).
METHODS:
We conducted a retrospective study at the First Affiliated Hospital of the University of Science and Technology of China to evaluate the efficacy of AVA as a first-line TPO-RA in 65 patients after UCBT; these patients were compared with 118 historical controls. Response rates, platelet counts, megakaryocyte counts in bone marrow, bleeding events, adverse events and survival rates were evaluated in this study. Platelet reconstitution differences were compared between different medication groups. Multivariable analysis was used to explore the independent beneficial factors for platelet implantation.
RESULTS:
Fifty-two patients were given AVA within 30 days post-UCBT, and the treatment was continued for more than 7 days to promote platelet engraftment (AVA group); the other 13 patients were given AVA for secondary failure of platelet recovery (SFPR group). The median time to platelet engraftment was shorter in the AVA group than in the historical control group (32.5 days vs . 38.0 days, Z = 2.095, P = 0.036). Among the 52 patients in the AVA group, 46 achieved an overall response (OR) (88.5%), and the cumulative incidence of OR was 91.9%. Patients treated with AVA only had a greater 60-day cumulative incidence of platelet engraftment than patients treated with recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) only or rhTPO combined with AVA (95.2% vs . 84.5% vs . 80.6%, P <0.001). Patients suffering from SFPR had a slightly better cumulative incidence of OR (100%, P = 0.104). Patients who initiated AVA treatment within 14 days post-UCBT had a better 60-day cumulative incidence of platelet engraftment than did those who received AVA after 14 days post-UCBT (96.6% vs . 73.9%, P = 0.003).
CONCLUSION
Compared with those in the historical control group, our results indicate that AVA could effectively promote platelet engraftment and recovery after UCBT, especially when used in the early period (≤14 days post-UCBT).

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.

Background:To compare the efficacy and safety of monthly administrations of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists LY01005 and Zoladex ? in Chinese patients with premenopausal breast cancer. Methods:From October 2020 to November 2021, 188 premenopausal breast cancer patients were enrolled in 34 hospitals and randomized 1:1 to receive either LY01005 or Zoladex ? every 28 days for a total of three injections. All patients concomitantly received oral tamoxifen (TAM). The primary efficacy endpoint was cumulative probability of maintaining menopausal level [oestradiol (E2) ≤30 pg/ml] from day 29 to day 85. The second efficacy endpoint included changes in E2, luteinizing hormone (LH), and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) compared with the baseline. Pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and safety were analyzed. The study also evaluated the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics of LY01005. Results:A total of 188 patients were randomised and 187 patients received either LY01005 or Zoladex ?. Cumulative probabilities of maintaining menopausal level (E2≤30 pg/ml) from day 29 to day 85 were 93.1% for LY01005 and 86.3% for Zoladex ?. The between-group difference was 6.8% (95% CI: -2.3%, 15.9%) and primary efficacy in the LY01005 group was not inferior to that in the Zoladex ? group. Changes in E2, LH, and FSH levels compared with the baseline were equivalent between the two groups (E2: 89.34% to 90.23% vs. 82.11% to 85.02%; LH: 88.89% to 95.52% vs. 89.70% to 97.02%; FSH: 75.36% to 80.85% vs.73.07% to 80.24%, respectively). After three consecutive doses of LY01005, the LH and FSH levels of the subjects showed a transient increase after the first dose, reached a peak on the second day and then started to decrease. The LH and FSH reached a lower level and remained at or below that level until the 85th day. Both treatments were well-tolerated. Conclusion:LY01005 is as effective as Zoladex ? in suppressing E2 to menopausal levels in Chinese patients with premenopausal breast cancer, with a similar safety profile.

Raynaud syndrome is a clinical syndrome characterized by paroxysmal vasospasms of the acral small arteries,and its pathogenesis is closely associated with the dynamic imbalance of yin and yang as elucidated by the theory of"yang transforming qi and yin shaping up body."The theory of"yang transforming qi and yin shaping up body"originated in Huangdi Neijing,which is aimed at that yang can be tangible essence,blood,fluid,and other substances belonging to the yin into an invisible qi,promote the internal and external zang-fu organs and qi of the body's operation;yin qi is transformed into tangible substances under the gasification effect of yang qi to nourish the organism,to consolidate the essence of internal zang-fu organs,and to maintain the balance of yin and yang in the body.This study innovatively employs this theory to systematically elucidate the dynamic pathomechanism evolution of Raynaud syndrome:at the beginning of the disease,the ischemic stage is dominated by the deficiency of yang qi and the inability of qi to transform yin;then the disease enters into the hypoxic stage and the dilatation stage,which are mostly caused by the lack of yang depression,the blockage of qi,and the over-excessive formation of yin;and finally,the yang transforms qi too much and yin is damaged and weak,and then reaches the stage of complication.In Raynaud syndrome,the key mechanism and pathology of"yang transforming qi"and"yin shaping up body"as well as the stage of the disease should be clarified,so that yang qi can be used as the basis to make up for yang deficiency,yang depression can be stretched out,yin evils such as cold condensation,blood stasis and water dampness can be transformed,heat and toxin can be eliminated,yin fluids can be restored,and the extremities can be warmed up.The disease will be convalesced gradually.
