Nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF), predominantly affecting the elderly, can lead to intractable pain, vertebral collapse, progressive kyphotic deformity, and neurological impairment, significantly compromising patients′ quality of life. There exists considerable debate on diagnosis and management of OVF, encompassing key issues such as clinical diagnosis and staging criteria for nonunion, surgical indications and procedure selection, and postoperative rehabilitation planning. Currently, there lacks standardized clinical guideline and expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of OVF nonunion in China. To address this gap, Minimally Invasive Surgery Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Osteoporosis Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Prevention and Rehabilitation Committee for Osteoporosis of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery Branch of China Association for Geriatric Care jointly organized domestic experts in spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rehabilitation to formulate the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures ( version 2025), based on existing literature and clinical experience and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and practicality. The guideline provided 13 evidence-based recommendations encompassing diagnosis and treatment of OVF nonunion, aiming to standardize its clinical management.

Prostate cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in men and posing a serious threat to men's health. Detection methods such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA), prostate biopsy, and magnetic resonance imaging are widely used for prostate cancer screening, but they have low specificity, high cost, and significant risks. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop highly specific, low-cost, easily obtained, stable, and reliable biomarkers, and use them as the basis to establish non-invasive screening and diagnostic methods for prostate cancer. This paper reviewed the recent advances in the use of prostate cancer biomarkers and combined detection methods for prostate cancer diagnosis and prognosis assessment and provides an in-depth analysis and comparison of different biomarkers and combined detection methods, as well as points out the directions and challenges for future research. The paper emphasizes the importance of developing efficient, cost-effective and easy-to-implement biomarkers to increase the early diagnosis rate of prostate cancer, improve patient prognosis, and reduce the waste of healthcare resources. This paper provides an important theoretical basis and technical guidance for early diagnosis, precise treatment and prognostic evaluation of prostate cancer, and has important reference value for promoting clinical research and practice of prostate cancer.

Objective:To explore the association between α5 subunit of gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor subtype 5(GABRA5) gene polymorphism and executive function in patients with major depressive disorder.Methods:From August 2018 to September 2020, one hundred and eighty depressed patients diagnosed by DSM-Ⅳ-TR criteria were included from Xuzhou Eastern Hospital, meanwhile 120 healthy controls with matching demographic characteristic were recruited.Gene polymorphisms were detected through the elbow vein blood of all subjects. The severity of the patients was assessed by 17 items Hamilton depression scale(HAMD-17). The executive function of subjects was tested by Wisconsin card sorting test (WCST) and event-related potential P300.The t test and χ2 test were used for statistic analysis by SPSS 17.0. Results:The cognitive function of depression patients with GABRA5 receptor gene carrying T allele was significantly lower than that of patients with C allele ( t=2.35-3.45, P<0.05). The cognitive dysfunction was associated with sleep and anxiety/somatization symptoms in depression patients ( r=-0.197-0.409, P<0.05). Anxiety/somatization symptoms in patients with depression partially mediated the association between GABRA5 receptor gene polymorphism and cognitive dysfunction(effect value=-0.611, 95% CI=-1.393--0.057). Conclusion:The GABRA5 receptor gene polymorphism is associated with cognitive dysfunction in patients with depression, and anxiety/somatization symptoms partially mediate the impairment of cognitive function caused by GABRA5 receptor gene polymorphism.

Objective:To explore the effect of group cognitive behavior therapy (GCBT) on anxiety, depression and quality of life in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in community.Methods:From August to November 2019, patients with moderate COPD in 18 communities in Xuzhou City were randomly divided into the intervention group ( n=240) and the control group ( n=223). The control group received routine management and the intervention group received group cognitive behavioral therapy intervention for 8 weeks on the basis of routine management.Before and after the intervention, FEV 1% predicted value and FEV 1/FVC were measured by pulmonary function tester.Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was used to evaluate the anxiety and depression of patients.St.George's respiratory questionnaire (SGRQ), COPD assessment test (CAT) and modified medical research council dyspnea (mMRC) were used to evaluate the quality of life of patients.SPSS 20.0 software was used for analysis.The χ 2 test, independent sample t-test, paired sample t-test were used for statistical analysis. Results:After 8 weeks of intervention, the anxiety and depression scores of the intervention group were lower than those of the control group (anxiety: (8.23±4.02) vs (10.71±3.60); depression: (7.87±3.73) vs (10.20±3.72)( t=6.415, 6.185, both P<0.01). After the intervention, there was no significant difference in FEV 1%((51.7±12.3)% vs (52.0±12.6)%) predicted value and FEV 1/FVC((57.3±10.8)% vs (56.9±10.7)%) between the two groups( t=-0.259, 0.400, both P>0.05). The scores of CAT, mMRC and SGRQ in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group((17.35±5.78) vs (20.90±8.00), (1.55±0.82) vs (2.30±1.21), (41.78±21.56) vs (57.08±24.46))( t=-5.061, -7.227, -6.580, all P<0.01). Conclusion:Group cognitive behavioral therapy can relieve the anxiety and depression and improve the quality of life of patients with COPD.

Objective: To compare effects of drug and psychotherapy in the treatment of depressive disorder. Methods: 63 depressive patients were randomly divided into two treatment groups: drug or psychotherapy. MMPI, SDSS and HAMD were used for assessing treatment effects on personality and social functions. Results: The effects of psychotherapy and drug were compatible for controlling symptoms of depression. Psychotherapy was superior to drug in preventing relapses, as well as improving cognitive and social functions. Conclusion: Psychotherapy should be applied to depressive patients. Dosage and duration of administering sedative antidepressants should be reduced in the treatment of depression.

Objective To investigate the value of obli que coronal MR images in visualization of the anterior cruciafe ligment(ACL).Methods Conventional axial,oblique sagittal and coronal MR images were performed in 30 normal knees.Then oblique coronal T 2-weighted i mages,which was parallel to ACL,based on oblique sagittal T 2 -weighted images ,were acquired.The visualization of ACL on oblique coronal,oblique sagital and coronal T 2-weighted images was analysed.Results The visualization of the whole ACL was 100%(30/30 ) on one image of the oblique coronal T 2-weighted images, 83.3%(25/30) on on e image of the oblique sagaital T 2-weighted image. On the coronal T 2-weighte d images,the ACL appeared as segmental bundle.The whole ACL could not be visua lized on one image of coronal T 2-weighted images.Conclusion The whole ACL can be showed on one image of ob lique coronal T 2-weighted image,which is helpful in evaluation of the injure o f ACL.
