Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of brexpiprazole in treating acute schizophrenia.Methods Patients with schizophrenia were randomly divided into treatment group and control group.The treatment group was given brexpiprozole 2-4 mg·d-1 orally and the control group was given aripiprazole 10-20 mg·d-1orally,both were treated for 6 weeks.Clinical efficacy of the two groups,the response rate at endpoint,the changes from baseline to endpoint of Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale(PANSS),Clinical Global Impression-Improvement(CGI-S),Personal and Social Performance scale(PSP),PANSS Positive syndrome subscale,PANSS negative syndrome subscale were compared.The incidence of treatment-related adverse events in two groups were compared.Results There were 184 patients in treatment group and 186 patients in control group.After treatment,the response rates of treatment group and control group were 79.50％(140 cases/184 cases)and 82.40％(150 cases/186 cases),the scores of CGI-I of treatment group and control group were(2.00±1.20)and(1.90±1.01),with no significant difference(all P＞0.05).From baseline to Week 6,the mean change of PANSS total score wese(-30.70±16.96)points in treatment group and(-32.20±17.00)points in control group,with no significant difference(P＞0.05).The changes of CGI-S scores in treatment group and control group were(-2.00±1.27)and(-1.90±1.22)points,PSP scores were(18.80±14.77)and(19.20±14.55)points,PANSS positive syndrome scores were(-10.30±5.93)and(-10.80±5.81)points,PANSS negative syndrome scores were(-6.80±5.98)and(-7.30±5.15)points,with no significant difference(P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of treatment-related adverse events between the two group(69.00％vs.64.50％,P＞0.05).Conclusion The non-inferiority of Brexpiprazole to aripiprazole was established,with comparable efficacy and acceptability.

Objective To analyze the magnetic resonance images (MRI) of patients with spinal epidural lipomatosis (SEL) in high-altitude areas and to determine the optimal cut-off value for diagnosis with epidural fat thickness. Methods This retrospective study included patients who underwent lumbosacral MRI examination for lumbosacral pain in Ping’an District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Haidong City, China from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2022. The epidural fat thickness in vertebral segments T12/L1 to L5/S1 was compared between the SEL group and the non-SEL group. The diagnostic efficacy with different cut-off values at each vertebral segment was evaluated. Between-group comparisons were performed using the t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, chi-square test, or modified chi-square test. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUC) was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency. The DeLong test was used to compare AUC between the two groups. Results A total of 370 patients were included (60 in the SEL group and 310 in the non-SEL group). There were no significant differences in age, sex, height, body weight, and body mass index between the two groups (all P > 0.05). At different vertebral segments, the epidural fat thickness was significantly higher in the SEL group than in the non-SEL group (all P < 0.05). The cut-off values for SEL diagnosis with epidural fat thickness in segments T12/L1 to L5/S1 were 2.23, 4.25, 4.85, 5.57, 7.21, and 8 mm, respectively. The AUC of MRI SEL diagnosis with epidural fat thickness in segment L5/S1 was the highest (0.945, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.916-0.966, P < 0.001). SEL diagnosis with epidural fat thickness > 8 mm in segment L5/S1 was the most accurate, with an AUC of 0.931 (95% CI: 0.901-0.955, P < 0.001), a sensitivity of 95.0%, and a specificity of 91.3%; this AUC was significantly higher than those of diagnosis with other cut-off values (all P < 0.05). Conclusion SEL patients have significantly increased epidural fat in the spinal canal. Epidural fat thickness > 8 mm in segment L5/S1 can be used for diagnosis of SEL with improved efficiency and accuracy.

ObjectiveTo elucidate the underlying mechanism of the efficacy of Levo-tetrahydropalmatine （l-THP） in alleviating chronic pain and identify the key metabolites and metabolic pathways for l-THP regulation. MethodA classical chronic constrictive injury （CCI） model was built in rats’ bodies， and the pain intensity was evaluated by detecting the mechanical withdrawal threshold. On the sixth day after surgery， oral administration of l-THP （64 mg·kg^-1） and positive control drug pregabalin （Pre， 30 mg·kg^-1） was performed on rats. After the last administration following consecutive five times of administration， ipsilateral spinal cord tissues were collected for widely-targeted metabonomics， with eight rats in each group. Differential metabolites （DEMs） were identified according to the standard of VIP>1.0 and P<0.05， and functional enrichment and interaction analyses of the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） were performed to obtain the key metabolites and metabolic pathways associated with the analgesic effects of l-THP. ResultIn behavioral science， administration of both l-THP and Pre significantly improved mechanical hyperalgesia in CCI rats （P<0.01）， thus mitigating pain. Metabonomic analysis results revealed that l-THP administration corrected the aberrant metabolic profile in the spinal cord of CCI rats. Meanwhile， 53 DEMs were called back， including several classical pain biomarkers such as sphingosine-1-phosphate （S1P）， cyclic adenosine monophosphate （cAMP）， acetylcholine， and glutamate. Functional enrichment analysis of the DEMs indicated the involvement of metabolic pathways such as ferroptosis， autophagy， neuroactive ligand-receptor interactions， phospholipase D and cAMP-related signaling pathways， glutathione metabolism， and cofactor biosynthesis in mediating the effects of l-THP on the metabolic profile of the spinal cord. Further analyses on the relative metabolite abundance and metabolic pathways indicated that by significantly decreasing the relative levels of glutamate （P<0.01） and glycine （P<0.01） in the spinal cord， l-THP can promote the synthesis of reduced glutathione （GSH） and increase the ratio of reduced/oxidized GSH （P<0.05）. Additionally， it can relieve oxidative stress in the spinal cord of CCI rats and significantly reduce the acetyl-CoA level （P<0.01） to finally inhibit ferroptosis occurrence. Conclusionl-THP may exert analgesic effects by regulating multiple metabolic pathways including GSH metabolism， ferroptosis， cofactor biosynthesis， and amino acid synthesis to correct the aberrant metabolic profile in the spinal cord of CCI rats. Ferroptosis and GSH metabolism may be the key pathways for l-THP regulation， with glutamate， glycine， glutathione， and acetyl-CoA as the key metabolites.

This experiment aims to study the taste-masking effects of different kinds of corrigent used individually and in combination on ibuprofen oral solution, in order to optimize the taste-masking formulation. Firstly, a wide range of corrigent and the mass fractions were extensively screened using electronic tongue technology. Subsequently, a combination of sensory evaluation, analytic hierarchy process (AHP)-fuzzy mathematics evaluation, and Box-Behnken experimental design were employed to comprehensively assess the taste-masking effects of different combinations of corrigent on ibuprofen oral solution, optimize the taste-masking formulation, and validate the results. The study received ethical approval from the Review Committee of the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine (ethical code: 2024BZYLL0102). The results showed that corrigent fractions and types were screened separately through single-factor experiments. Subsequently, a Box-Behnken response surface design combined with AHP and fuzzy mathematics evaluation was used to fit a functional model: Z = 688.310 11 - 3 023.722 22X₁ - 11.477 00X₂ + 62.721 67X₃ + 14.600 00X₁X₂ - 179.666 67X₁X₃ - 3.152 00X₂X₃ + 4 031.111 11X₁² + 0.525 28X₂² + 9.772 00X₃². This model is stable and reliable, determining the optimal taste-masking formulation to be 3.9 g·L^-1 of stevioside, 100 g L^-1 of xylitol, and 30 g L^-1 of methyl-β-cyclodextrin. The comprehensive score of the verification test is 88.14, with a relative RSD of 0.39%, indicating the feasibility of this model. This study achieved the improvement of the taste of ibuprofen oral solution through a combination of objective and subjective methods. Three types of corrigent were identified for enhancing drug taste, leading to the selection of the optimal taste-masking formulation for ibuprofen oral solution. This significantly enhanced the taste of the original formulation, improved patient compliance, and offered a new approach to mitigating the undesirable taste of formulations.

Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) have been widely used in regenerative medicine, but there is limited research on the stability of UC-MSCs formulation during production. This study aims to assess the stability of the cell stock solution and intermediate product throughout the production process, as well as the final product following reconstitution, in order to offer guidance for the manufacturing process and serve as a reference for formulation reconstitution methods. Three batches of cell formulation were produced and stored under low temperature (2-8 ℃) and room temperature (20-26 ℃) during cell stock solution and intermediate product stages. The storage time intervals for cell stock solution were 0, 2, 4, and 6 h, while for intermediate products, the intervals were 0, 1, 2, and 3 h. The evaluation items included visual inspection, viable cell concentration, cell viability, cell surface markers, lymphocyte proliferation inhibition rate, and sterility. Additionally, dilution and culture stability studies were performed after reconstitution of the cell product. The reconstitution diluents included 0.9% sodium chloride injection, 0.9% sodium chloride injection + 1% human serum albumin, and 0.9% sodium chloride injection + 2% human serum albumin, with dilution ratios of 10-fold and 40-fold. The storage time intervals after dilution were 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 h. The reconstitution culture media included DMEM medium, DMEM + 2% platelet lysate, 0.9% sodium chloride injection, and 0.9% sodium chloride injection + 1% human serum albumin, and the culture duration was 24 h. The evaluation items were viable cell concentration and cell viability. The results showed that the cell stock solution remained stable for up to 6 h under both low temperature (2-8 ℃) and room temperature (20-26 ℃) conditions, while the intermediate product remained stable for up to 3 h under the same conditions. After formulation reconstitution, using sodium chloride injection diluted with 1% or 2% human serum albumin maintained a viability of over 80% within 4 h. It was observed that different dilution factors had an impact on cell viability. After formulation reconstitution, cultivation in medium with 2% platelet lysate resulted in a cell viability of over 80% after 24 h. In conclusion, the stability of cell stock solution within 6 h and intermediate product within 3 h meets the requirements. The addition of 1% or 2% human serum albumin in the reconstitution diluent can better protect the post-reconstitution cell viability.

Objective To retrospectively investigate the efficacy of pelvic floor muscle training(PFMT)using APP-based home device in the real-world scenario.Methods A retrospective survey was conducted among 171 000 Chinese female users over 18 years old who freely registered APP and performed PFMT using a domestic manufactured home device from Oct 1,2019 to Mar 31,2021.The Patient Global Impression of Improvement(PGI-I)questionnaires concerning pelvic floor general condition,sexual satisfaction and other three major symptoms related to pelvic floor muscle laxity such as stress urinary incontinence(SUI),pelvic organ prolapse(POP),and vaginal laxity(VL)were broadcast public online for users to self-assess the improvement.The vaginal muscle strength values prior and post training recorded by APP were also reported.All data were collected anonymously for further stratified analysis.Results A total of 984 valid questionnaires were collected by systematic sampling.The PGI-I scores of pelvic floor general condition(P=0.000 1),sexual satisfaction(P=0.009),SUI(P=0.000 1),POP(P=0.044)and VL(P=0.034)were statistically significant in users who reported to use the device for 3 months or more compared with those less than 3 months.In addition,the increase of vaginal muscle strength was related to the improvement of PGI-I scores in SUI and POP with statistical significance.There were no significant difference in subgroups such as age,education,parity,and delivery mode.Conclusion The subjective benefit of pelvic floor function-related symptoms and the improvement of vaginal muscle strength could be observed after PFMT for three months or more using APP-based home device in Chinese women in the real-world scenario.

BACKGROUND:Although the clinical application of Masquelet technology has achieved extensive success,the research on optimizing all aspects of Masquelet technology is still being carried out.The focus of doctors is to speed up bone healing and shorten bone healing time after bone grafting. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of calcium phosphate combined with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 in repairing tibial infectious bone defects. METHODS:Thirty-one patients with tibial infectious bone defects were selected from The People's Hospital of Jianyang City from June 2017 to June 2022.They were treated with the Masquelet membrane induction technique.During the second stage of operation,they were divided into a control group(n=15)and a study group(n=16)according to different bone graft materials.Patients in the control group were implanted with autologous bone/allogeneic bone particles,and those in the study group were implanted with calcium phosphate combined with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2/autologous bone particles.Six months after the second stage operation,peripheral blood inflammatory indexes such as white blood cell count,C-reactive protein,and erythrocyte sedimentation rate were detected.Imaging bone healing time,bone healing X-ray score,bone defect healing classification,and adjacent joint function were recorded.The presence of nail track infection,implant absorption,pain,and infection in the bone extraction area were observed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)White blood cell count,erythrocyte sedimentation rate,and C-reactive protein levels of the two groups 6 months after the second stage operation were significantly lower than those before the first stage operation(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in each index between the two groups(P>0.05).(2)Bone healing time in the study group was shorter than that in the control group(P<0.05).(3)The Samantha X-ray score of the study group 6 months after the second stage operation was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).The excellent and good rate of bone defect healing and adjacent joint function of the study group was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the recurrence rate and complication rate between the two groups(P>0.05).(4)These findings indicate that the effect of calcium phosphate combined with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 during the second stage operation of the Masquelet membrane induction technique in the treatment of tibial infectious bone defect is good and safe.

As the comprehensive reform of public hospitals enters a more challenging phase,the conventional extensive operation management no longer fulfills the requirements of high-quality development.This article investigates the current challen-ges in hospital operation management under the DIP payment system,proposes an optimized pathway as well as an outline for practical implementation.The proposed pathway suggests implementing a closed-loop resource allocation strategy integrating budg-et and performance based on disease groups and scores,establishing a cost management mechanism for enhancing resource effi-ciency,and development of a performance distribution system for stimulating self-management motivation among personnel.Addi-tionally,the article suggests the establishment of a Management Information System,aiming to provide practical references for en-hancing operational management capabilities in public hospitals under the DIP payment mode.

Objective To observe the cage subsidence after oblique lateral interbody fusion(OLIF)for lumbar spondylo-sis,summarize the characteristics of the cage subsidence,analyze causes,and propose preventive measures.Methods The data of 144 patients of lumbar spine lesions admitted to our hospital from October 2015 to December 2018 were retrospectively ana-lyzed.There were 43 males and 101 females,and the age ranged from 20 to 81 years old,with an average of(60.90±10.06)years old.Disease types:17 patients of lumbar intervertebral disc degenerative disease,12 patients of giant lumbar disc hernia-tion,5 patients of discogenic low back pain,33 patients of lumbar spinal stenosis,26 patients of lumbar degenerative spondy-lolisthesis,28 patients of lumbar spondylolisthesis with spondylolisthesis,11 patients of adjacent vertebral disease after lumbar internal fixation,7 patients of primary spondylitis in the inflammatory outcome stage,and 5 patients of lumbar degenerative scoliosis.Preoperative dual-energy X-ray bone mineral density examination showed 57 patients of osteopenia or osteoporosis,and 87 patients of normal bone density.The number of fusion segments:124 patients of single-segment,11 patients of two-seg-ment,8 patients of three-segment,four-segment 1 patient.There were 40 patients treated by stand-alone OLIF,and 104 patients by OLIF combined with posterior pedicle screw.Observed the occurrence of fusion cage settlement after operation,conducted monofactor analysis on possible risk factors,and observed the influence of fusion cage settlement on clinical results.Results All operations were successfully completed,the median operation time was 99 min,and the median intraoperative blood loss was 106 ml.Intraoperative endplate injury occurred in 30 patients and vertebral fracture occurred in 5 patients.The mean follow-up was(14.57±7.14)months from 6 to 30 months.During the follow-up,except for the patients of primary lumbar interstitial in-flammation and some patients of lumbar spondylolisthesis with spondylolisthesis,the others all had different degrees of cage subsidence.Cage subsidence classification:119 patients were normal subsidence,and 25 patients were abnormal subsidence(23 patients were grade Ⅰ,and 2 patients were grade Ⅱ).There was no loosening or rupture of the pedicle screw system.The height of the intervertebral space recovered from the preoperative average(9.48±1.84)mm to the postoperative average(12.65±2.03)mm,and the average(10.51±1.81)mm at the last follow-up.There were statistical differences between postop-erative and preoperative,and between the last follow-up and postoperative.The interbody fusion rate was 94.4％.The low back pain VAS decreased from the preoperative average(6.55±2.2 9)to the last follow-up(1.40±0.82),and there was statistically significant different.The leg pain VAS decreased from the preoperative average(4.72±1.49)to the final follow-up(0.60± 0.03),and the difference was statistically significant(t=9.13,P＜0.000 1).The ODI index recovered from the preoperative av-erage(38.50±6.98)％to the latest follow-up(11.30±3.27)％,and there was statistically significant different.The complication rate was 31.3％(45/144),and the reoperation rate was 9.72％(14/144).Among them,8 patients were reoperated due to fusion cage subsidence or displacement,accounting for 57.14％(8/14)of reoperation.The fusion cage subsidence in this group had obvious characteristics.The monofactor analysis showed that the number of abnormal subsidence patients in the osteopenia or osteoporosis group,Stand-alone OLIF group,2 or more segments fusion group,and endplate injury group was higher than that in the normal bone mass group,OLIF combined with pedicle screw fixation group,single segment fusion group,and no endplate injury group,and the comparison had statistical differences.Conclusion Cage subsidence is a common phenomenon after 0-LIF surgery.Preoperative osteopenia or osteoporosis,Stand-alone OLIF,2 or more segments of fusion and intraoperative end-plate injury may be important factors for postoperative fusion cage subsidence.Although there is no significant correlation be-tween the degree of cage subsidence and clinical symptoms,there is a risk of cage migration,and prevention needs to be strengthened to reduce serious complications caused by fusion of cage subsidence,including reoperation.
