ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the public health governance capacity of 40 cities in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui Provinces, providing a scientific evaluation basis for building a "Healthy Yangtze River Delta". MethodsA comprehensive collection of policy documents, public information reports, and research literature related to public health governance capacity in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui Provinces was conducted, totaling 6 920 policy documents, 1 720 information reports, and 1 200 literature pieces. Based on the evaluation standards for an appropriate public health system established by the research team, the basic status of public health governance capacity was assessed to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the 40 cities. ResultsIn 2022, the public health governance capacity score for the 40 cities in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui Provinces was (562.5±38.0) points. In terms of specific areas, the emergency response field received the highest score of (791.4±49.7) points, while the chronic disease prevention and control field received the lowest score of (368.2±29.6) points. The Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Anhui region has largely achieved the strategic priority of health, gradually improved public health legal regulations, and established a basic organizational framework with a solid foundation for information and data infrastructure. However, challenges still need to be addressed, such as unstable government funding for public health, unclear departmental responsibilities, and barriers to information interoperability. ConclusionThe public health governance capacity of the 40 cities in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui Province has been at a moderate level, but disparities have still existed across regions and fields. In the future, while continuing to deepen existing advantages, it is essential to accurately identify the causes of problems, establish a long-term and stable investment mechanism, enhance information connectivity mechanisms, further clarify departmental responsibilities, and promote the achievement of the "Healthy Yangtze River Delta" goal.

BACKGROUND:For non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head,if the femoral head collapses,it will have a great impact on the normal life of the patients.Thus,it is necessary to use an appropriate way to evaluate the risk of femoral head collapse and then to take targeted measures to delay the process of femoral head collapse. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the natural course of early osteonecrosis of the femoral head(without collapse)under different locations of necrotic lesions. METHODS:121 patients(191 hips)with early non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head who were treated in the Outpatient Department of Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University from October 2016 to October 2017 were enrolled in this study.The clinical data of all patients were followed up for 5 years to observe the collapse of osteonecrosis of the femoral head and the risk coefficient of femoral head collapse among different JIC types.The collapse rate of osteonecrosis of the femoral head was calculated during the follow-up. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)A total of 191 hips were included in this study.The femoral head collapsed in 86 hips during follow-up,with a total collapse rate of 45.0%.Among the influencing factors,age,ARCO stage and JIC classification were the main influencing factors of femoral head collapse(P<0.05),but body mass index,sex,incidence side and pathogenic factors were not the main influencing factors(P>0.05).(2)Among 191 hips,in JIC classification,the total collapse rates of type A,type B,type C1 and type C2 were 11.1%(2/18),30.2%(16/53),52.4%(43/82),and 65.8%(25/38),respectively.There were significant differences in the total collapse rate of the femoral head among all types(P<0.05).The collapse risk results showed that the collapse risk of type B,type C1 and type C2 was 2.41,5.22 and 7.89 times higher than that of type A,respectively.(3)Both JIC classification and ARCO stage were correlated with femoral head collapse(P<0.01).There was no significant difference in the collapse rate of the femoral head among all JIC types in ARCO I stage hips(P>0.05).In the hips with ARCO II stage,the collapse rates of the femoral head of JIC types A,B,C1 and C2 were 1.2%,19.5%,50.0%and 29.3%,respectively,and there were significant differences in the collapse rates among different types(P<0.05).(4)During follow-up,the collapse rates of the femoral head in the first to fifth years were 29.3%,7.9%,4.7%,2.6%and 0.5%,respectively.(5)Results showed that for early non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head,the risk of collapse of osteonecrosis of the femoral head is high within one year,and the location of the focus of osteonecrosis affects the risk of collapse of the femoral head.The effect of the location of the focus on the prognosis of the disease should be considered in clinical treatment.

BACKGROUND:Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is one of the refractory diseases in orthopedic diseases.The natural collapse course of osteonecrosis of the femoral head under different stages and types affects the progression and prognosis of the disease. OBJECTIVE:To explore the progression of natural collapse within 5 years in patients under the different classifications of China-Japan Friendship Hospital(CJFH)with stage Ⅱ osteonecrosis of the International Association for Research Circulation Osseous(ARCO),and to analyze the collapse rate and collapse risk of the femoral head under the different classifications of CJFH. METHODS:A retrospective study was performed to select patients diagnosed with ARCO Ⅱ stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head without collapse in the Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University from October 2016 to October 2017.According to whether it collapsed,the number of hips was divided into the collapse group(n=82)and the non-collapsed group(n=70).The collapse risk of patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head under different CJFH classifications,as well as the collapse time,number of collapses,and collapse rate within 5 years were counted,and then the Kaplan-Meier survival curve of the femoral head under different classification of CJFH was plotted. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)A total of 97 patients with 152 hips were enrolled,and 82 hips collapsed during the follow-up period,with a total collapse rate of 53.9%,of which the collapse rates of M type,C type,L1 type,L2 type,and L3 type were 0.0%,36.7%,51.4%,72.2%,and 77.8%,respectively,and the comparison between the groups was statistically significant(P<0.05).(2)In terms of collapse risk,the collapse risk of L1 type was 1.704 times that of C-type(P>0.05),while the collapse risks of L2 type and L3 type were 3.866 times and 6.423 times that of C type(P<0.05),respectively.(3)In terms of the Kaplan-Meier survival curve,the median survival time of the femoral head of ARCO Ⅱ stage patients was 3 years,with a 95%confidence interval of 2.885-3.471 years,and the survival rates of the femoral head at the first,third and fifth years were 65.1%(99/152),50.7%(77/152),and 46.1%(70/152),respectively.(4)These findings conclude that different CJFH classifications affect the collapse rate of ARCO Ⅱ stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head patients,among which L3 type patients have the highest collapse rate,followed by L2 type and L1 type patients;C type patients have a lower collapse rate,and M type patients do not collapse,which indicates that the preservation of the lateral column of the femoral head is of great significance for the natural collapse course of osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of reconstruction with the hallux tissue flap for the fingertip defects of thumb and fingers based on the concept and technique of full reconstruction.Methods:From September 2022 to February 2023, the patients with thumb and fingertip defects who were reconstructed using the concept and technology of full reconstruction in Xuzhou Renci Hospital were respective analysised. Based on the degree of defect in the nail bed, bone, and soft tissue of the hand, a hallux osteo-onychocutaneous flap or hallux nail flap was designed and harvested from the same side of the toe, and free transplantation was performed to reconstruct the damaged fingertip. The wounds in the donor site that could not be sutured primarily were treated with dressing change. The surgical complications, the appearance of the reconstructed finger and donor site, Semmes-Weinstein monofilament (SWM) examination, 2-point discrimination (2PD) measurement, and patient satisfaction were regularly recorded. According to the functional evaluation criteria for thumb and finger reconstruction issued by the Hand Surgery of the Chinese Medical Association, the function of the reconstructed fingers was evaluated as excellent (13-15 points), good (9-12 points), fair (5-8 points), and poor (≤4 points). The patients were investigated whether they were satisfied with the outcomes.Results:A total of 8 patients (9 fingers) including 5 males and 3 females were enrolled. The average age was 32.4 years (range, 22-46 years). There were 1 thumb, 2 index fingers, 5 middle fingers, and 1 ring finger. 7 cases (8 fingers) were repaired with the hallux osteo-onychocutaneous flap, and 1 case (1 finger) was repaired with the hallux nail flap. All the reconstructed fingers survived uneventfully, and the recipient site healed primarily, and the donor site healed after dressing change, without infection and other complications. All the 8 patients (9 fingers) were followed up for 3-7 months. The nail plate of the donor site naturally grew and recovered nearly normal. Depression formation was observed at part of the deck junction of the recipient site, and scars were left in the pulp and fibular side of the hallux. At the final follow-up, the reconstructed fingers recovered protective sensation and tactile sense, and the 2PD of the reconstructed fingers was 9 mm and 10 mm in two cases. The SWM score was 3.60-4.31, mean 3.96. The results were the monofilament specifications and indicating the protective sensation was diminished. Functional evaluation of reconstructed fingers: 9 fingers in 8 cases scored 13-14 points, all reaching an excellent level. All patients were satisfied with the surgical results.Conclusion:Based on the concept and technology of full reconstruction, the fingertip defects of the thumb and finger can recover close to normal with the hallux tissue flap in the short-term, while ensuring the overall shape and function of the hallux donor area, achieving a balance between the donor and recipient areas, and achieving satisfactory clinical results.

Objective To investigate the toxicokinetic differences of 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine(MDMA)and its metabolite 4,5-methylene dioxy amphetamine(MDA)in rats af-ter single and continuous administration of MDMA,providing reference data for the forensic identifica-tion of MDMA.Methods A total of 24 rats in the single administration group were randomly divided into 5,10 and 20 mg/kg experimental groups and the control group,with 6 rats in each group.The ex-perimental group was given intraperitoneal injection of MDMA,and the control group was given intraperi-toneal injection of the same volume of normal saline as the experimental group.The amount of 0.5 mL blood was collected from the medial canthus 5 min,30 min,1 h,1.5 h,2 h,4 h,6 h,8 h,10 h,12 h after administration.In the continuous administration group,24 rats were randomly divided into the experi-mental group(18 rats)and the control group(6 rats).The experimental group was given MDMA 7 d by continuous intraperitoneal injection in increments of 5,7,9,11,13,15,17 mg/kg per day,respectively,while the control group was given the same volume of normal saline as the experimental group by in-traperitoneal injection.On the eighth day,the experimental rats were randomly divided into 5,10 and 20 mg/kg dose groups,with 6 rats in each group.MDMA was injected intraperitoneally,and the con-trol group was injected intraperitoneally with the same volume of normal saline as the experimental group.On the eighth day,0.5 mL of blood was taken from the medial canthus 5 min,30 min,1 h,1.5 h,2 h,4 h,6 h,8 h,10 h,12 h after administration.Liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry was used to detect MDMA and MDA levels,and statistical software was employed for data analysis.Results In the single-administration group,peak concentrations of MDMA and MDA were reached at 5 min and 1 h after administration,respectively,with the largest detection time limit of 12 h.In the continuous administration group,peak concentrations were reached at 30 min and 1.5 h af-ter administration,respectively,with the largest detection time limit of 10 h.Nonlinear fitting equations for the concentration ratio of MDMA and MDA in plasma and administration time in the single-administration group and continuous administration group were as follows:T=10.362C-1.183,R2=0.974 6;T=7.397 3C-0.694,R2=0.961 5(T:injection time;C:concentration ratio of MDMA to MDA in plasma).Conclusions The toxicokinetic data of MDMA and its metabolite MDA in rats,obtained through single and continuous administration,including peak concentration,peak time,detection time limit,and the relationship between concentration ratio and administration time,provide a theoretical and data foundation for relevant forensic identification.

italic>Lamiophlomis rotata is an important medicinal plant species endemic to the Tibetan Plateau, which is prone to strong climate change impacts on its habitable range due to the high sensitivity of the Tibetan Plateau to climate change. Accurate quantification of species vulnerability to climate change is essential for assessing species extinction risk and developing effective conservation strategies. Therefore, we carried out the α-shape analysis to determine the habitat of L. rotata. We then carried out the climate-niche factor analysis (CNFA) to assess the vulnerability of L. rotata to climate change based on five climate variables (i.e., mean diurnal range, temperature seasonality, mean temperature of warmest quarter, precipitation of driest month and precipitation of warmest quarter) in the context of two shared socioeconomic pathways (i.e., SSP126 and SSP585) and three global climate models (CMCC-ESM2: Centro Euro-Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici-Earth System Model version 2; HadGEM3-GC31-LL: Hadley Global Environment Model version 3-Global Coupled configuration 3.1; IPSL-CM6A-LR: Institut Pierre Simon Laplace-Climate Model version 6) during two different periods (2041-2060 and 2081-2100). The vulnerability of L. rotata to climate change was calculated by integrating the sensitivity and exposure indices of L. rotata to five climate variables. The results showed that L. rotata had the highest vulnerability to the precipitation of warmest quarter. Its vulnerability within its habitat range generally showed a spatial pattern of high value in the southern region and low in the northern region, high in the western region and low in the eastern region. In general, the vulnerability of L. rotata under the SSP585 scenario was higher than that under the SSP126 scenario. The climate data of different global climate models have some influence on the results, while the resulted uncertainty can be reduced by data integration methods. As a result of climate change, the pressure on the survival of L. rotata in the future will be intensified in the low-altitude areas such as the Yarlung Zangbo River, Yigongzangbu River, Zayu River, and Jiaomuzu River, etc., while the highly weathered scree flats or stony alpine meadows in the high-altitude zones, such as the eastern Tanggula Mountain Range, the northern part of Hengduan Mountain Range, and the western part of the Qinling Mountains, may become its refuge. It is necessary to focus on and strengthen the protection and management of L. rotata resources in these vulnerble and critical areas.

Manganese superoxide dismutase catalyzes the dismutation of two molecules of superoxide radicals to one molecule of oxygen and one molecule of hydrogen peroxide. The oxidation of superoxide anion to oxygen by Mn³⁺SOD proceeds at a rate close to diffusion. The reduction of superoxide anion to hydrogen peroxide by Mn²⁺SOD can be progressed parallelly in either a fast or a slow cycle pathway. In the slow cycle pathway, Mn²⁺SOD forms a product inhibitory complex with superoxide anion, which is protonated and then slowly releases hydrogen peroxide out. In the fast cycle pathway, superoxide anion is directly converted into product hydrogen peroxide by Mn²⁺SOD, which facilitates the revival and turnover of the enzyme. We proposed for the first time that temperature is a key factor that regulates MnSOD into the slow- or fast-cycle catalytic pathway. Normally, the Mn²⁺ rest in the pent-coordinated state with four amino acid residues (His26, His74, His163 and Asp159) and one water (WAT1) in the active center of MnSOD. The sixth coordinate position on Mn (orange arrow) is open for water (WAT2, green) or O₂^• to coordinate. With the cold contraction in the active site as temperature decreases, WAT2 is closer to Mn, which may spatially interfere with the entrance of O₂^• into the inner sphere, and avoid O₂^•/Mn²⁺ coordination to reduce product inhibition. Low temperature compels the reaction into the faster outer sphere pathway, resulting in a higher gating ratio for the fast-cycle pathway. As the temperature increases in the physiological temperature range, the slow cycle becomes the mainstream of the whole catalytic reaction, so the increasing temperature in the physiological range inhibits the activity of the enzyme. The biphasic enzymatic kinetic properties of manganese superoxide dismutase can be rationalized by a temperature-dependent coordination model of the conserved active center of the enzyme. When the temperature decreases, a water molecule (or OH^-) is close to or even coordinates Mn, which can interfere with the formation of product inhibition. So, the enzymatic reaction occurs mainly in the fast cycle pathway at a lower temperature. Finally, we describe the several chemical modifications of the enzyme, indicating that manganese superoxide dismutase can be rapidly regulated in many patterns (allosteric regulation and chemical modification). These regulatory modulations can rapidly and directly change the activation of the enzyme, and then regulate the balance and fluxes of superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide in cells. We try to provide a new theory to reveal the physiological role of manganese superoxide dismutase and reactive oxygen species.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.

Objective:To evaluate trauma repair and reconstruction surgery mediated by near-infrared-Ⅱ (NIR-Ⅱ) imaging in practice of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) principles.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the data of 38 patients who had undergone trauma repair and reconstruction surgery mediated by near-infrared-Ⅱ (NIR-Ⅱ) imaging in practice of ERAS principles at Department of Orthopedic Trauma and Microsurgery, Zhongnan Hospital from May 2021 to December 2021. There were 22 males and 16 females with an age of (50.3±2.7) years. To implement ERAS, NIR-Ⅱ imaging was used for patency evaluation after vascular anastomosis in 14 cases, for skin flap harvesting and perfusion monitoring in 13 cases, and for evaluation of arterial/venous blood supply after finger replantation in 11 cases. Visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores at 2, 7 and 14 days after surgery, length of hospital stay, patient satisfaction [by Chinese Hospital Patient Experience and Satisfaction Monitor (CHPESM)], limb function recovery (by Likert scale) and postoperative complications were recorded.Results:All patients were followed up for more than 14 days. All surgeries succeeded. The reconstructed limbs or flaps survived to recover basically normal shape and function. The VAS scores for all patients were (2.1±0.6) points, (1.6±0.6) points and (0.8±0.4) points on postoperative 2, 7 and 14 days, respectively. The length of hospital stay was (9.8±3.4) days, and the patient satisfaction was >95% at discharge. As for the recovery of limb function at the last follow-up evaluated by the Likert 5-point scale, 12 cases experienced no stiffness, 8 ones mild stiffness, 11 ones slightly severe stiffness, 3 ones moderate to severe stiffness, 2 ones severe stiffness, and 2 ones complete stiffness. Complications related to the surgery occurred in none of the patients.Conclusion:In practice of ERAS principles, application of NIR-Ⅱ imaging in trauma repair and reconstruction surgery can effectively alleviate pain, improve satisfaction, reduce hospital stay, and accelerate functional recovery for the patients.
