Sarcopenia is a clinical syndrome characterized by a decrease in skeletal muscle strength and quality， often accompanied by adverse outcomes such as falls， loss of function and weakness. The pathogenesis of sarcopenia is complex， and studies have shown that dysfunction due to impaired mitochondrial quality control is an important pathological factor in the occurrence and development. Traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） has been widely favoured for regulating mitochondrial homeostasis and preventing sarcopenia by virtue of its multi-target and multi-pathway advantages. They can play a role in the prevention and treatment of sarcopenia by regulating the mitochondrial quality control system to inhibit the occurrence of mitochondrial oxidative stress， regulate the balance of mitochondrial dynamics， inhibit mitochondrial autophagy， promote mitochondrial biosynthesis， resist the occurrence of mitochondrial apoptosis， and maintain the mitochondrial calcium and protein homeostasis. Based on this， the paper reviewed the relationship between mitochondrial quality control and sarcopenia， as well as the mechanism of TCM in intervening the mitochondrial quality control system to treat sarcopenia， in order to provide a new idea for the prevention and treatment of sarcopenia by TCM and to a theoretical basis for the clinical research on TCM intervention in sarcopenia.

【Objective】 To explore the factors influencing erectile dysfunction (ED) in male patients after renal transplantation, so as to provide basis for the prevention and treatment of this disease. 【Methods】 Kidney transplant recipients followed up in the Kidney Transplant Clinic of Xijing Hospital during Sep.1, 2022 and May 1, 2023 were selected as the study objects.Questionnaires were distributed, and the erectile function was measured with Sexual Health Inventory for Men (SHIM).Factors associated with ED were analyzed with multivariate logistic regression. 【Results】 A total of 300 questionnaires were distributed, and 276 valid ones were collected, including 182 cases (65.9%) suffering from ED of varying degrees.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age [(<30 years/>50 years, OR: 0.120, 95%CI: 0.033-0.405, P<0.001), (30-40 years/>50 years, OR: 0.223, 95%CI: 0.102-0.463, P<0.001), (>40-50 years/>50 years, OR: 0.320, 95%CI: 0.139-0.719, P<0.01)], level of International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) (OR: 1.95, 95%CI: 1.211-3.248, P<0.01), International Prostate Symptom Score-Quality of Life item (IPSS-QoL) (OR: 1.482, 95%CI: 1.201-1.854, P<0.01), and income [(≥10 000 Yuan/<3 000 Yuan, OR: 0.156, 95%CI: 0.053-0.429, P<0.001), (5 000-<10 000 Yuan/<3 000 Yuan, OR: 0.418, 95%CI: 0.199-0.864, P<0.05), (≥10 000 Yuan/3 000-<5 000 Yuan, OR: 0.205, 95%CI: 0.069-0.573, P<0.01)] were independent and significant factors of ED. 【Conclusion】 The prevalence of ED in renal transplantation recipients is high.Age, income, IPSS and IPSS-QoL are the influencing factors.ED after renal transplantation is not only determined by physical and functional factors, but also closely related to social and psychological factors.

Bone organoids can simulate the complex structure and function of the bone tissues, which makes them a frontier technology in organoid researches. Bone organoids show a tremendous potential of applications in bone disease modeling, bone injury repair, and medicine screening. Although advancements have been made so far in constructing bone organoids with functional structures like mineralization, bone marrow, trabecular bone, callus, woven bone, etc, the researches in this field are confronted with numerous challenges such as lack of standardized construction strategies and unified evaluation criteria, which limits their further promotion and application. To standardize researches in bone organoids, the Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatric Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, the Youth Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Association, the Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Surgeon Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and the Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine organized related experts to formulate Expert consensus on the construction, evaluation, and application of bone organoids ( version 2024) based on an evidence-based approach. A total of 17 recommendations were put forth, aiming to standardize researches and clinical applications of bone organoids and enhance their value in scientific research and clinical practice.

AIM:To investigate the effects of ginkgetin on neurological deficit and angiogenesis induced by cerebral ischemia/reperfusion(I/R)and its underlying mechanism.METHODS:Sixty SD rats were randomly allocated into three groups:sham group,I/R model group,and ginkgetin(40 mg/kg)treatment(I/R+ginkgetin)group,with twenty rats in each group.The middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion(MCAO/R)rat model was employed to simulate cere-bral I/R,and ginkgetin was administered continuously for 7 days following reperfusion.The cerebral infarction volume was quantified using TTC staining.Neuronal density in the ischemic penumbra was assessed through Nissl staining and immu-nohistochemistry for neuron-specific nuclear protein(NeuN).Microvessel density and angiogenesis in the ischemic pen-umbra of each group were analyzed using CD31 labeling and BrdU/von willebrand factor(vWF)double labeling immuno-fluorescence staining.Western blot analysis was performed to determine the levels of heat shock protein 70(HSP70),vas-cular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),and hypoxia inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α)in the ischemic penumbra.RE-SULTS:Compared with the I/R model group,the cerebral infarction volume was significantly reduced in ginkgetin treat-ment group(P<0.01),the number of neurons,the microvessel density,angiogenesis and the expression levels of HIF-1α,VEGF,and HSP70 in the ischemic penumbra were significantly increased(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:Ginkgetin exhibits the potential to augment angiogenesis and facilitate neurological function recovery in MCAO rats,while concur-rently upregulating the expression of HSP70,VEGF,and HIF-1α within the ischemic penumbra.

Objective:To compare the long-term clinical efficacy of simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation (SPK) in the treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) , and to explore whether T2DM with ESRD can be an indication for SPK.Methods:A total of 62 cases of SPK performed in our center were retrospectively analyzed. Based on the same baseline principle, the patients were divided into T1DM group (30 cases) and T2DM (32 cases) according to the primary disease of diabetes.Results:There was no significant difference in male gender, preoperative hemoglobin or HbA1c between the two groups. Compared with T2DM group, both of the age at surgery [ (31.8±5.2) years vs (49.5±5.7) years, P<0.001] and body mass index [ (21.8±1.3) kg/m 2 vs (25.0±3.8) kg/m 2, P<0.001] were lower in T1DM group. Compared with T2DM, the insulin dosage in the T1DM was higher, and there was no C-peptide release, and the difference was statistically significant. The patients were followed up for 5 years. There were no significant differences in fasting blood glucose, HbA1c, C-peptide, serum creatinine or eGFR between the two groups at 1, 3 and 5 years after surgery. The incidence of pulmonary infection, BK virus infection and acute rejection of transplanted kidney in T1DM group was lower than that in T2DM group, but the difference was not statistically significant. At 1 and 3 years after transplantation, the survival rates of recipients, transplanted pancreas and kidneys were 100% in both groups. In the 5th year, one patient in T2DM group died of acute myocardial infarction at 48 months after surgery, but the renal and pancreatic grafts functioned well. The survival rate of recipients in T1DM group (100%) was higher than that in T2DM group (96.9%) on 5 years after surgery ( P=0.333) , but the difference was not statistically significant. After excluding the deceased recipients, the transplanted pancreas and kidneys in both groups survived. Conclusions:There is no significant difference in the short and long-term clinical outcomes between patients with T2DM and ESRD who received SPK and those with T1DM and ESRD. T2DM with ESRD can be an indication for SPK, but a large sample size study is still needed to further improve the selection criteria.

Objective:To investigate the effect of acupoint stimulation assisted anesthesia on the agitation during recovery and the levels of serum opioids (Opiorphin) and amyloid A (SAA) in elderly patients after hip fracture surgery.Methods:Eighty-six older patients who underwent hip fracture surgery in Shaoxing Second Hospital from February 2020 to September 2021 were randomly divided into the routine group and the research group, each with 43 patients. They were given acupoint sham stimulation and acupoint stimulation respectively, and the general indexes of the two groups, recovery quality, cognitive function and changes in serum Opiorphin and SAA levels were compared.Results:There were no differences in operation time, anesthesia time, recovery time and intraoperative blood transfusion between the two groups ( P>0.05). The dosage of remifentanil in the research group was significantly lower than that in the routine group: (270.64 ± 17.62) μg vs. (291.82 ± 23.34) μg, P<0.05. The incidence of agitation during the recovery period in the research group was significantly lower than that in the routine group: 13.95% (6/43) vs. 48.84% (21/43), P<0.05. The mini-mental state examination (MMSE) scores in the research group at 12, 24 and 48 h after operation were significantly higher than those in the routine group: (22.80 ± 2.04) scores vs. (19.31 ± 3.61) scores, (24.92 ± 2.44) scores vs. (21.49 ± 3.58) scores, (26.73 ± 2.57) scores vs. (24.23 ± 3.95) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The serum Opiorphin level at 24 h after operation in the research group was higher than that in the routine group: (32.74 ± 8.57) mg/L vs. (25.40 ± 6.36) mg/L; and the SAA level was lower than that in the routine group: (157.36 ± 10.24) mg/L vs. (204.37 ± 15.56) mg/L, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Acupoint stimulation adjuvant anesthesia can reduce the occurrence of agitation during the recovery period of elderly patients with hip fracture, reduce the dosage of anesthetics, reduce postoperative cognitive impairment, regulate serum Opiorphin and SAA levels, and help early postoperative recovery.

This paper discusses the application of MRN combined with 3D printing in SNM in neurogenic bladder patients with special comorbidities. In this study, 21 cases of neurogenic bladder patients with special comorbidities involved, including 14 cases into the control group and 7 cases in the experimental group. Traditional X-ray guidance was used in the control group, while the MRN combined with 3D printing navigation template positioning was used in the experimental group. Compared with those in the control group, the X-ray fluoroscopy, number of punctures, puncture time, intraoperative adjustment and testing time were significantly decreased in the experimental group. The difference of implantable pulse generator implantation rates between the two groups was statistically significant.

Pancreas transplantation and pancreas-kidney transplantation are the optimal treatment for renal failure caused by type 1 diabetes mellitus, partial type 2 diabetes mellitus and their complications. Pancreas transplantation mainly includes simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation (SPK), pancreas transplantation after kidney transplantation (PAK) and pancreas transplantation alone (PTA). Among all types of pancreas transplantation, biopsy of pancreas allograft remains the best method for definitively diagnosing rejection and differentiate it from other complications. In this article, biopsy methods of pancreas allograft and related research progress, diagnostic criteria and research progress on rejection of pancreas allograft biopsy, and main complications and pathological manifestations of pancreas allograft were illustrated, aiming to provide reference for guiding the clinical diagnosis of the above mentioned complications and ensuring the long-term survival of pancreas allografts and recipients.

Objective:To explore the safety and feasibility of optimized pathological evaluation system of donor's kidney and modified surgery during adult dual kidney transplantation(DKT)and evaluate its effectiveness to provide more alternative protocols for kidney transplantation from extended criteria donors.Methods:DKT was performed in 10 recipients using the same protocol from June 2019 to May 2021.And retrospective reviewing was performed for clinical data, including characteristics of donors and recipients, optimized pathological evaluation system, modified surgery, treatment regimens, complications and follow-ups.Results:There were 8 male and 2 female donors with an age of(57.9±12.8)years and BMI(24.1±4.1)kg/m 2.The percentage of DCD was 70% and DBD 30%.The serum creatinine before procurement was 107.6(93.3-163.5)μmol/l.Zero-point puncture biopsy was performed for both kidneys and optimized pathological evaluation system was implemented(Banff criteria & Remuzzi score). The pathological results indicated that glomerular sclerosis for left and right kidneys were 2.0(1.5-2.0)and 1.5(1.0-2.0). And Remuzzi score for left and right kidneys were(4.4±1.2)and(3.6±1.5)points respectively.All recipients were male with an age of(43.1±9.0)years and BMI(22.2±1.9)kg/m 2.All PRAs were negative pre-operation.Modified surgery was performed in all recipients(two kidneys were implanted outside iliac vessels without patch and artery of superior kidney was anastomosed to internal iliac artery). Operative duration was(195±54.3)min and serum creatinine before discharge 125.0(102.0-199.0)μmol/L.Renal dynamic scintigraphy indicated that glomerular filtration rate was(30.0±8.2)ml/min for left kidney and(29.2±13.9)ml/min for right kidney.MRA results indicated that morphologies of renal arteries and veins were regular.The time between operation and discharge was(22.4±4.7)days.Compared with SKT, serum creatinine before discharge of DKT was lower and DGF incidence of DKT was higher without statistical significance.The time between operation and discharge was longer for DKT than that for SKT( P<0.05). The complications consisted of 20% donor derived infection(DDI)and 50% DGF.And there was no surgical complication associated with vessels and ureter.Renal function remained stable during 6-month follow-ups. Conclusions:Optimized pathological evaluation system of donor's kidney and modified surgery during adult dual kidney transplantation are both safe and feasible.The postoperative function of transplanted dual kidney is successfully restored.However, long-term follow-ups are required for evaluating its effectiveness.

【Objective】 To study the yielding rate and distribution of unexpected antibodies in blood transfusion children with thalassemia in Yunnan province, and to explore the blood transfusion strategies. 【Methods】 From January 2016 to December 2021, 298 children with thalassemia, who received blood transfusion treatment in Kunming, Xishuangbanna, Wenshan, Dehong, Yuxi and Baoshan hospitals across Yunnan Province, were selected. The unexpected antibodies of blood plasma were screened by microcolumn gel card. The samples with positive antibodies were identified for alloantibody specificity. 【Results】 Unexpected antibodies were yielded in 67 out of 298(22.48%) transfused children with thalassemia. The positive rates of unexpected antibodies in boys and girls were 16.55%(24/145) and 28.10%(43/153), respectively. The positive rates of unexpected antibodies in Han, Dai, Zhuang, Yi, Bulang, Jinuo and Miao people were 14.06%(18/128), 30.80%(32/104), 35.71%(10/28), 36.36%(8/22), 50.00%(4/8), 60.00%(3/5)and 66.67%(2/3), respectively, with statistically significant differences between each other. The positive rate of unexpected antibodies in ethnic minorities was higher than that in Han. The positive rates of unexpected antibodies in children who received the first transfusion at birth-one year old, 1~3 years old, 3~6 years old and above 6 years old were 12.50%(3/24), 10.14%(7/69), 24.54%(40/163)and 40.48%(17/42), respectively. The positive rates of unexpected antibodies in children with first transfusion after 3 years old were significantly higher than those before 3 years old. The positive rates of unexpected antibodies in children with one transfusion, 1~3, 3~10, 10~20 and more than 20 transfusions were 4.76%(1/21), 12.07%(7/58), 23.71%(23/97), 28.16%(29/103)and 36.84%(7/19), respectively, with statistically significant differences between each other. The number of blood transfusions was positively correlated with the unexpected antibody yielding. The yielding rate of unexpected antibodies in children with α thalassemia, βthalassemia, δ+ βthalassemia and untyped thalassemia was 7.50%(3/40), 17.62%(34/193), 53.70%(29/54)and 9.09%(1/11), respectively(P<0.05). The yielding rate of unexpected antibodies in transfused children with δ+ βthalassemia was the highest. And 57 unexpected antibodies of Rh blood group system were yielded, 6 anti-M antibodies, 2 anti-N antibodies and 2 undetermined. 【Conclusion】 The positive rate of unexpected antibodies in transfused children with thalassemia in Yunnan province is high. Routine antibody screening should be carried out for transfusion children with thalassemia, and blood units, compatible with ABO, Rh and MNS typing results, should be selected to ensure the safety and effectiveness of clinical blood use.
