BACKGROUND:In recent years,artificial intelligence has gradually emerged and has been applied in various fields such as spinal cord nerve injury and repair,which has a positive impact on clinical treatment. OBJECTIVE:To study the application progress of artificial intelligence in the diagnosis,treatment,and rehabilitation of spinal cord nerve injury and repair,clarify the research hotspots and shortcomings in this field,and provide suggestions for future research work. METHODS:Relevant literature on artificial intelligence in the field of spinal cord nerve injury and repair was retrieved on the Web of Science core collection database until 2023.CiteSpace 6.1.R6 and VOSviewer 1.6.19 software was used to perform general literature analysis,co-citation of literature,co-citation of journals,double image overlay of journals,keyword clustering,and other visual analysis on the literature data. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)A total of 1 713 articles were selected,and the annual publication volume in this field showed a fluctuating upward trend,with the United States taking the lead,and Kadone and Hideki being the authors with the highest publication volume.ARCH PHYS MED REHAB was the journal with the highest number of citations.(2)Keyword co-occurrence and cluster analysis showed that after removing keywords similar to the search terms,the main keywords were divided into three main clusters:Exoskeleton and exercise rehabilitation(the largest core hotspot);machine learning and neural plasticity;robotics and rehabilitation training.(3)Keyword burst analysis showed that deep learning and artificial intelligence had become burst terms in the past five years.(4)The results of in-depth analysis of co cited and highly cited literature showed that the hotspots of artificial intelligence in the field of spinal cord nerve injury and repair were mainly focused on powered exoskeletons,gaits,electrical nerve stimulation,intracortical brain-computer interface(IBCI),robots,and polymer biomaterials,and neural stem cell.(5)The research on artificial intelligence in the field of spinal cord nerve injury and repair has shown an upward trend in recent years.The focus of this field had gradually shifted from single treatment methods such as exoskeletons and electrical stimulation to intelligent,precise,and personalized directions.(6)There were some limitations in this field,such as the consequences of missing or imbalanced data,low data accuracy and reproducibility,and ethical issues(such as privacy,research transparency,and clinical reliability).Future research should address the issue of data collection,requiring large sample,high-quality clinical datasets to establish effective artificial intelligence models.At the same time,the research on genomics and other mechanisms in this field is very weak.In the future,various machine learning technologies such as brain chips can be used,and gene editing therapy,single-cell spatial transcriptome and other methods can be used to study the basic mechanisms of regeneration-related gene upregulation and axon growth structural protein production.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the effects of C3435T polymorphism in ABCB1 gene on lipid-lowering efficacy of statins. METHODS Retrieved from PubMed， Web of Science， the Cochrane Library， CNKI and VIP， the cohort studies on the use of statins were collected from the inception to November 1， 2023. After literature screening， data extraction and quality evaluation， meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 11 literature involving 1 575 patients were included. The results showed that under the dominant genetic model， the reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C） [MD＝－1.87， 95%CI （－3.62， －0.13）， P＝0.04]， total cholesterol （TC） [MD＝－1.42， 95%CI （－2.80， －0.04）， P＝0.04] in patients with CT+TT genotype was significantly higher than CC genotype. There was no significant difference in the increase of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C） [MD＝－0.65， 95%CI （－2.48， 1.18）， P＝0.49] or the decrease of triglyceride （TG） [MD＝－0.05， 95%CI （－2.94， 2.84）， P＝0.97] between patients with CT+TT genotype and CC genotype. Under the recessive genetic model， the reduction of TC [MD＝2.26， 95%CI （0.97， 3.56）， P＝0.000 6] and the increase of HDL-C [MD＝2.38， 95%CI （0.42， 4.35）， P＝0.02] in patients with TT genotype were significantly higher than CC+ CT genotype. There was no significant difference in the reduction of LDL-C [MD＝1.53， 95%CI （－0.10， 3.15）， P＝0.07] or TG [MD＝0.06， 95%CI （－2.98， 3.10）， P＝0.97] between CC+CT genotype and TT genotype. Under the additive genetic model， the reduction of TC [MD＝2.98， 95%CI （1.27， 4.69）， P＝0.000 6] and LDL-C [MD＝2.84， 95%CI （0.67， 5.01）， P＝0.01] in patients with TT genotype were significantly higher than CC genotype. There was no significant difference in the increase of HDL-C [MD＝2.40， 95%CI （－0.17， 4.97）， P＝0.07] or the decrease of TG [MD＝0.97， 95%CI 　　 （－2.93， 4.87）， P＝0.63] between patients with TT genotype and CC genotype. CONCLUSIONS The reduction of LDL-C and TC in patients with dyslipidemia treated with statins may be related to the heterozygous and homozygous mutation of C3435T in ABCB1 gene， and the reduction of LDL-C and TC in patients with CT or TT genotype is more obvious， compared with patients with CC genotype. The elevation of HDL-C may be related to homozygous mutation， and the effect of HDL-C elevation may be more obvious in patients with TT genotype， compared with CC+CT genotype. However， the change of TG may not be related to the C3435T polymorphism in ABCB1 gene.

Treponema pallidum(Tp),a common sexually transmitted pathogen,can infect the fetus via pla-cental vertical transmission,leading to congenital syphilis(CS).This infection results in adverse pregnancy outcomes,such as stillbirth,miscarriage,preterm birth,and fetal growth restriction.However,the exact pathogenesis remains un-clear.Studies indicate that patients with early syphilis primarily exhibit pro-inflammatory immune responses.The Tp has been proven to induce dysfunction in various immune cells and abnormal expression of cytokines,potentially disrupting im-mune tolerance homeostasis and leading to adverse pregnancy outcomes.Grounded in the current understanding of CS and maternal-fetal immunology by scholars both domestically and internationally,this paper provides a comprehensive review of the potential mechanisms of Tp interacting with the cells of the maternal-fetal interface,ultimately leading to adverse pregnancy outcomes.It summarizes the pathogenesis characteristics,clinical manifestations,and maternal-fetal immune responses of CS.
