Flap transplantation is a critical surgical strategy for the reconstruction of tissue defects caused by trauma, tumor resection, and congenital malformations, and its survival rate directly determines surgical efficacy and patient prognosis. Following transplantation, flaps inevitably undergo ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, during which oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, and metabolic disturbances are intricately intertwined, ultimately leading to cellular injury and tissue necrosis. Recent studies have demonstrated that multiple forms of programmed cell death—including apoptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, necroptosis, and PANoptosis—play central roles in flap I/R injury. The extensive crosstalk and molecular interactions among these pathways form a highly complex cell death network. Specifically, apoptosis is mediated by the imbalance of Bcl-2 family proteins and the activation of cysteine-dependent aspartate-specific protease (caspase) cascades; pyroptosis is driven by the NLRP3-caspase-1-GSDMD axis, resulting in membrane pore formation and the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines; ferroptosis is characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation and dysfunction of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4); necroptosis is triggered by the receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1)-RIPK3-MLKL signaling complex, leading to membrane rupture; and PANoptosis represents an integrated form of inflammatory cell death that coordinates multiple death pathways. Importantly, these forms of programmed cell death are not independent but are interconnected through extensive signaling crosstalk. Key regulatory molecules, including caspase-8, reactive oxygen species (ROS), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), collectively modulate the dynamic balance among these pathways. Therefore, the multidimensional interplay and spatiotemporal dynamics of programmed cell death constitute a fundamental pathological basis of flap I/R injury. This review systematically summarizes the latest advances in the mechanisms and interactions of various programmed cell death pathways in flap I/R injury, aiming to elucidate the underlying regulatory network. These insights may provide novel theoretical foundations for optimizing flap protection strategies, improving flap survival, and promoting tissue repair.

Objective To explore the efficacy of progressive exercise training based on the modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale (mMRC) grading in respiratory rehabilitation for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) at a primary healthcare setting. Methods A total of 106 patients with COPD admitted to Zhuanqiao Community Health Service Center in Shanghai from Aug.1, 2022 to Jul. 30, 2024 were selected as research subjects. They were randomly divided into a study group and a control group in a 1∶1 ratio, with 53 patients in each group. The control group received conventional treatment, while the study group received conventional treatment combined with progressive exercise training. After 4 weeks of continuous treatment, the changes in the 6-minute walk test (6MWT), COPD assessment test (CAT) score, mMRC grading, Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) grading and pulmonary function were compared between the two groups. Results Patients in both groups showed improvements in 6MWT distance, CAT score, mMRC grading, GOLD grading, and pulmonary function compared to baseline (P<0.05). Moreover, the study group had better improvements in 6MWT distance, CAT score, mMRC grading, GOLD grading, and pulmonary function than the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions Conventional treatment combined with progressive exercise training based on mMRC grading can enhance the effect of respiratory rehabilitation in patients with COPD, particularly in improving pulmonary function and exercise tolerance.

A 64-year-old male patient with hemophilia A was scheduled for the surgical removal of a pulmonary mass. Preoperative evaluation revealed that the coagulation factor Ⅷ (FⅧ) activity was 0.5%, with an F Ⅷ inhibitor level of 32 BU/ml; the R value could not be detected on the thromboelastogram. Thoracoscopic lobectomy was successfully completed. On the day of the operation and the first day after the operation, 6 mg of recombinant activated coagulation factor Ⅶ (rFⅦa) was intravenously administered every 6 h. On postoperative day 1, the patient’s blood pressure dropped and the HGB gradually declined from 102 g/L to 65 g/L. Chest X-ray revealed a large amount of pleural effusion on the left side, and urgent thoracoscopic thoracic exploration was performed. A total of 3200 mL fresh blood was cleared, and a thoracic drainage tube was placed. On postoperative day 2, the rFⅦa dose was increased to 6 mg, which was intravenously administered every 4 h, and concentrated red cells were intermittently infused to correct anemia. Four days later, due to the inability to obtain rFⅦa, PCC (50 IU/kg every 8 hours) was administered. Additionally, treatment with methylprednisolone (40 mg/d) and cyclophosphamide (200 mg, every 2 weeks) was initiated to remove FⅧ inhibitors. The thoracic drainage tube was removed on postoperative day 9, and the patient was successfully discharged 3 weeks later.

Objective:To investigate the vaccination rate of 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV23), identify determinants of vaccination willingness, and analyze barriers to vaccination among community-dwelling elderly in Xinzhuang Town of Shanghai Minhang District.Methods:This cross-sectional study was conducted in Xinzhuang Town of Shanghai Minhang District from November to December 2024. An online questionnaire was distributed via WeChat groups of neighborhood committees to community-dwelling elderly (aged≥60 years) using a convenience sampling method. The questionnaire covered basic demographic information, health status, knowledge and awareness about pneumonia and PPV23, attitudes toward PPV23 vaccination, and vaccination behavior. The χ2 test and multivariate logistic regression analysis were employed to identify factors influencing the PPV23 vaccination rate and willingness to vaccination among the elderly. Results:A total of 667 questionnaires were collected and 612 were valid (91.8%). Among 612 responders there were 223 males (36.44%) and 389 females (63.56%), and 304 (49.67%) aged 70-79 years. In all respondents, 185 (30.23%) had previously received PPV23, while 427 (69.77%) had not. Reasons for non-vaccination included unawareness of vaccine necessity (31.85%, 136/427), self-perceived good health (31.15%, 133/427), concerns about adverse reactions (21.08%, 90/427), and lack of physician recommendation (14.52%, 62/427). In all participants, 65.85%(403/612)expressed willingness for vaccination and 34.15%(209/612) did not have willingness. Factors significantly influencing vaccination willingness included negative perception of vaccine efficacy ( OR=2.750, 95% CI:1.077-7.023), concerns about adverse reactions ( OR=2.568, 95% CI:1.258-5.242), low awareness of pneumonia and PPV23 vaccine ( OR=11.608, 95% CI:4.177-32.258), perceived vaccination inconvenience ( OR=0.457, 95% CI:0.248-0.844), and belief in good health negating need ( OR=2.658, 95% CI:1.361-5.190) (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Suboptimal PPV23 vaccination rates and low willingness among community-dwelling elderly in Shanghai Xinzhuang Town are driven by knowledge gaps and perceptual barriers. Targeted interventions should prioritize physician engagement, accessible vaccination services, and public education addressing safety and efficacy concerns.

This consensus was developed by the Orthodontic Society of the Chinese Stomatological Association to provide a systematic, scientific, and practical guideline for informed consent in orthodontic care. Orthodontic treatment is typically lengthy, highly individualized, and involves multiple factors such as growth and development, occlusal function, and facial esthetics. Rapid technological advances and diverse risk profiles make the traditional reliance on orthodontist experience or institutional templates insufficient to ensure patients′ full understanding and autonomous decision-making. To address this, the expert panel conducted extensive reviews of domestic and international guidelines, analyzed representative dispute cases, and performed multicenter patient-clinician surveys. Using a multi-round Delphi method, the group established a standardized informed consent framework covering the initial consultation, treatment, and retention phases. The consensus emphasizes that informed consent is not only a fundamental legal and ethical requirement but also a key step in building trust, improving patient compliance, and enhancing treatment satisfaction. Orthodontists should clearly and comprehensively explain treatment plans, potential risks, uncertainties, and associated costs, while respecting the autonomy of patients or guardians, and maintain continuous communication and dynamic evaluation throughout the treatment process. The release of this consensus provides unified and authoritative guidance for clinical orthodontics, helping to standardize informed consent, enhance its transparency, safeguard patient rights, reduce medical risks, and promote high-quality, sustainable development of orthodontic practice.

The advancement of surgical techniques enables effective treatment for many patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors.How-ever,post-surgery problems such as chewing,swallowing and speech difficulty may arise due to the defects in speech organs and inade-quate compensatory function of tissue flap repair.Speech disorders,in particular,isolate patients by making it difficult for them to com-municate with others,not only impact their quality of life but also potentially lead to psychological problems and social interaction disor-ders.Although the decline in life quality and other related issues caused by speech dysfunction due to surgery and radiotherapy or chemo-therapy have been widely recognized,there is currently no standardized and universally applicable assessment method and standardized re-habilitation treatment management guideline or consensus for speech disorders following oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery at home and abroad.Based on previous clinical practice,combined with the characteristics of speech disorders in patients after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery,the clinical experience of the experts in maxillofacial tumor surgery and rehabilitation and the relevant domestic and foreign literature,relevant experts organized discussions and modifications,reach a consensus on core content such as the assessment of speech disorders and the implementation plan for early rehabilitation treatment management,providing a reference for clinical practice,in order to improve patients'speech-related life quality and enhance the assessment and rehabilitation treatment techniques for speech disorders after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery.

Magnetic stimulation has made significant strides in the treatment of psychiatric disorders. Nonetheless, current magnetic stimulation techniques lack the precision to accurately modulate specific nuclei and cannot realize deep brain magnetic stimulation. To address this, we utilized superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles as mediators to achieve precise targeting and penetration. We investigated the effects of magnetic fields with varying frequencies on neuronal activity and compared the activation effects on neurons using a 10-Hz precise magneto-stimulation system (pMSS) with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in mice. Oxytocin levels, dendritic morphology and density, and mouse behavior were measured before and after pMSS intervention. Our findings suggest that pMSS can activate oxytocinergic neurons, leading to upregulation of oxytocin secretion and neurite outgrowth. As a result, sociability was rapidly improved after a one-week pMSS treatment regimen. These results demonstrate a promising magneto-stimulation method for regulating neuronal activity in deep brain nuclei and provide a promising therapeutic approach for autism spectrum disorder.
