Tumor cells use glycolysis to provide material and energy under hypoxic conditions to meet the energy requirements for rapid growth and proliferation， namely the Warburg effect. Even under aerobic conditions， tumor cells mainly rely on glycolysis to provide energy. Therefore， glucose transporter protein 1（GLUT1）， which is involved in the process of glucose metabolism， plays an important role in tumorigenesis， development and drug resistance， and is considered to be one of the important targets in the treatment of malignant tumors. In recent years， research on tumor glucose metabolism has gradually become a hot spot. It has been shown that various factors are involved in the regulation of tumor energy metabolism， among which the role of GLUT1 is the most critical. In this paper， the authors reviewed the latest research progress of GLUT1-targeted traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） active ingredient nano-delivery system in tumor therapy， aiming to reveal the feasibility and effectiveness of this system in the delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs. The GLUT1-targeted TCM active ingredient nano-delivery system can overcome the bottleneck of the traditional targeting strategy as well as the high-permeability long retention（EPR） effect. In summary， the authors believe that the GLUT1-targeted TCM active ingredient nano-delivery system provides a new strategy for targeted treatment of tumors and has a broad application prospect in tumor prevention and treatment.

Objective To summarize the epidemiological and clinical features of infectious diseases of the central nervous system(CNS)by a single-center analysis.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 1247 cases of CNS infectious diseases diagnosed and treated in the First Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from 2001 to 2020.Results The data for this group of CNS infectious diseases by disease type in descending order of number of cases were viruses 743(59.6％),Mycobacterium tuberculosis 249(20.0％),other bacteria 150(12.0％),fungi 68(5.5％),parasites 18(1.4％),Treponema pallidum 18(1.4％)and rickettsia 1(0.1％).The number of cases increased by 177 cases(33.1％)in the latter 10 years compared to the previous 10 years(P<0.05).No significant difference in seasonal distribution pattern of data between disease types(P>0.05).Male to female ratio is 1.87︰1,mostly under 60 years of age.Viruses are more likely to infect students,most often at university/college level and above,farmers are overrepresented among bacteria and Mycobacterium tuberculosis,and more infections of Treponema pallidum in workers.CNS infectious diseases are characterized by fever,headache and signs of meningeal irritation,with the adductor nerve being the more commonly involved cranial nerve.Matagenomic next-generation sequencing improves clinical diagnostic capabilities.The median hospital days for CNS infectious diseases are 18.00(11.00,27.00)and median hospital costs are ￥29,500(￥16,000,￥59,200).The mortality rate from CNS infectious diseases is 1.6％.Conclusions The incidence of CNS infectious diseases is increasing last ten years,with complex clinical presentation,severe symptoms and poor prognosis.Early and accurate diagnosis and standardized clinical treatment can significantly reduce the morbidity and mortality rate and ease the burden of disease.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) combined with lower cervical fracture is often categorized into unstable fracture, with a high incidence of neurological injury and a high rate of disability and morbidity. As factors such as shoulder occlusion may affect the accuracy of X-ray imaging diagnosis, it is often easily misdiagnosed at the primary diagnosis. Non-operative treatment has complications such as bone nonunion and the possibility of secondary neurological damage, while the timing, access and choice of surgical treatment are still controversial. Currently, there are no clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture with or without dislocation. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedics Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts to formulate Clinical guidelines for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis combined with lower cervical fracture in adults ( version 2024) in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine, scientificity and practicality, in which 11 recommendations were put forward in terms of the diagnosis, imaging evaluation, typing and treatment, etc, to provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between preoperative serum bilirubin concentrations and postoperative delirium (POD) in the patients undergoing knee or hip replacement.Methods:Medical records from 413 patients undergoing knee or hip arthroplasty were selected from August 2020 to October 2023 at Qingdao Municipal Hospital using a nested case-control design based on the PNDABLE study cohort. The patients were divided into POD group ( n=77) and non-POD group ( n=336) according to whether POD occurred. Univariate analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors. Logistic regression was used to identify the risk factors for POD. The significance of mediation effect was tested. The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn to evaluate the accuracy of risk factors in predicting POD. Results:There were significant differences in age, education time, ratio of diabetes history, Memorial Delirium Assessment Scale score, total bilirubin concentration, direct bilirubin concentration, indirect bilirubin concentration, Aβ 42 concentration, p-tau concentration, t-tau concentration, Aβ 42/p-tau ratio and Aβ 42/t-tau ratio between POD group and non-POD group ( P<0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative serum total bilirubin, direct bilirubin and indirect bilirubin were risk factors for POD ( P<0.05). The results of mediation effects showed that the concentration of total tau protein in CSF partly mediated the relationship between high serum total bilirubin, direct bilirubin and indirect bilirubin concentrations and POD. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of total bilirubin, direct bilirubin and indirect bilirubin combined with CSF biomarker concentrations in predicting POD was 0.83 ( P<0.001). Conclusions:Preoperative elevated concentrations of total bilirubin, direct bilirubin and indirect bilirubin are risk factors for POD in the patients undergoing knee or hip replacement. CSF t-tau concentration has a partly mediating role in the association between serum total bilirubin, direct bilirubin and indirect bilirubin concentrations and the development of POD.

Objective:To explore the clinical and electrophysiological characteristics of peripheral neuropathy in prediabetic patients.Methods:Subjects aged 20-65 years with high-risk factors of impaired glycemia enrolled in Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University from 2019 to 2022 were recruited to conduct oral glucose tolerance test, after excluding other causes of neuropathy or radiculopathy. Patients with impaired fasting glucose or impaired glucose tolerance were defined by American Diabetes Association criteria. These patients were divided into clinical polyneuropathy (PN) and clinical non-PN groups, according to the 2010 Toronto consensus criteria and the presence of PN symptoms and signs or not. Nerve conduction studies (NCS), F wave, sympathetic skin response (SSR), R-R interval variation (RRIV) and current perception thresholds (CPT) were performed and the abnormal rate was compared between different electrodiagnostic methods and between clinical subgroups.Results:Among the 73 prediabetic patients ultimately enrolled, only 20 (27.4%) can be diagnosed as clinical PN according to the Toronto consensus criteria. The abnormal rate of CPT (68.5%, 50/73) was significantly higher than those of F wave (2.7%, 2/73), lower limb NCS (0, 0/73), upper limb NCS changes of carpal tunnel syndrome (26.0%, 19/73), SSR (6.8%, 5/73) and RRIV (5.5%, 4/73; McNemar test, all P<0.001). With sinusoid-waveform current stimuli at frequencies of 2 000 Hz, 250 Hz and 5 Hz, the CPT device was used to measure cutaneous sensory thresholds of large myelinated, small myelinated and small unmyelinated sensory fibers respectively. CPT revealed a 21.9% (16/73) abnormal rate of unmyelinated C fiber in the hands of prediabetic patients, significantly higher than that of large myelinated Aβ fibers [8.2% (6/73), χ2=5.352, P=0.021]. Both abnormal rates of small myelinated Aδ [42.5% (31/73)] and unmyelinated C fibers [39.7% (29/73)] in the feet of prediabetic patients were significantly higher than that of large myelinated Aβ fibers [11.0% (8/73), χ2=18.508, 15.965, both P<0.001]. Compared with the clinical non-PN group, the abnormal rates of CPT [90.0% (18/20) vs 60.4% (32/53), χ2=5.904, P=0.015] and SSR [20.0% (4/20) vs 1.9% (1/53), P=0.016) were significantly higher in the clinical PN group. Conclusions:Peripheral neuropathies in prediabetic patients are usually asymptomatic or subclinical, and predispose to affect unmyelinated and small myelinated sensory fibers. Selective electrodiagnostic measurements of small fibers help to detect prediabetic neuropathies in the earliest stages of the disease.

Objective:To analyze the relationship between inflammatory burden index (IBI) and the diagnosis and prognosis of gastric cancer.Methods:A total of 180 patients with gastric cancer admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Medical University from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2021 were selected as the gastric cancer group, 180 cases of gastric precancerous diseases treated in this hospital during the same period were selected as the precancerous disease group, 180 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations in this hospital during the same period were selected as the control group. The value of IBI in the diagnosis of gastric cancer was analyzed. The IBI values of the three groups were compared by one-way analysis of variance, and the optimal cut-off values of different indicators were determined by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve to further evaluate the diagnostic value of IBI for gastric cancer. LASSO regression analysis was performed using the R software package glmnet to screen variables. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis were performed on the screened variables to further determine the independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer.Results:The levels of IBI in gastric cancer, precancerous disease, and control group were 46.69±8.38, 35.53±6.11, and 21.47±4.36, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( F=681.45, P<0.001). Further pairwise comparisons showed that the gastric cancer group was higher than the precancerous disease group and the control group, and the precancerous disease group was higher than the control group, with statistically significant differences ( t=14.43, P<0.001; t=34.15, P<0.001; t=25.13, P<0.001). ROC curve analysis showed that the optimal cut-off value for the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) was 3.15 (AUC=0.65, 95% CI: 0.54-0.73), with a specificity of 92.31% and a sensitivity of 43.97%. The optimal cut-off value for the platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) was 137.36 (AUC=0.59, 95% CI: 0.51-0.68), with a specificity of 93.66% and a sensitivity of 34.98%. The optimal cut-off value for lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) was 5.18 (AUC=0.69, 95% CI: 0.58-0.76), with a specificity of 61.29% and a sensitivity of 73.33%. The optimal cut-off value for panimmune inflammation value (PIV) was 276.57 (AUC=0.73, 95% CI: 0.65-0.78), with a specificity of 78.41% and a sensitivity of 59.77%. The optimal cut-off value for the systemic immune inflammatory index (SII) was 654.37 (AUC=0.73, 95% CI: 0.66-0.78), with a specificity of 86.32% and a sensitivity of 62.11%. The optimal cut-off value for the IBI was 49.12 (AUC=0.82, 95% CI: 0.79-0.92), with a specificity of 85.36% and a sensitivity of 65.82%. LASSO regression analysis showed that there were 8 prognostic variables related to survival, including IBI, T stage, N stage, age, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), SII, PIV, and tumor grade. The results of univariate analysis showed that IBI ( HR=4.57, 95% CI: 3.82-5.32, P<0.001), T stage ( HR=2.54, 95% CI: 1.75-3.31, P<0.001), N stage ( HR=1.69, 95% CI: 1.15-2.21, P=0.032), CEA ( HR=1.38, 95% CI: 1.06-1.75, P=0.032), and tumor grade ( HR=1.87, 95% CI: 1.34-2.59, P=0.026) were prognostic factors for gastric cancer patients. The results of multivariate analysis showed that IBI ( HR=3.96, 95% CI: 3.51-4.48, P<0.001), T stage ( HR=2.31, 95% CI: 1.63-3.02, P=0.023), tumor grade ( HR=1.49, 95% CI: 1.12-1.83, P=0.042) were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of gastric cancer patients. Compared with low-level IBI gastric cancer patients, the risk of death in high-level IBI patients was up to 3.96 times. Conclusion:IBI may be an important marker for diagnosis and prognosis prediction of gastric cancer, which has certain scientific and clinical value in the diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the changes of gut microbiota in excessive daytime sleepiness(EDS).Methods Two-sample Mendelian randomization(MR)analysis was performed using genome-wide association study(GWAS)data,with gut microbiota as an exposure factor,EDS as an outcome factor,and single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)as an instrumental variable,and a variety of methods were used to screen potential pathogenic gut microbes for EDS.The robustness of the results of MR analysis was ensured by using different sensitivity analyses.Results Based on the results of the multiple analyses,abundances of Butyricimonas,Peptococcus,Bilophila,Anaerofilum,Ruminococcus gnavus and Coprococcus were higher in EDS population,while abundances of Oscillospira and Desulfovibrio were relatively lower.Conclusion There was an imbalance of gut microbiota in EDS people,and whether adjusting gut microbiota structure by changing diet structure and using probiotics can improve EDS remains to be confirmed by further studies in the future.

Objective To explore the effect of Kümmell's disease with kyphosis on the sagittal morphology of the spine-pelvis.Methods A retrospective analysis of 34 patients of Kümmell's disease with kyphosis(Kümmell group)admitted from August 2015 to September 2022,including 10 males and 24 females with an average age of(71.1±8.5)years old.A control group of 37 asymptomatic population aged(69.3±6.7)years old was matched.Spinal-pelvic sagittal parameters were measured on the anterior-posterior and lateral X-rays of the whole spine in the standing position,including segmental kyphosis(SK)or thoracolumbar kyphosis(TLK),thoracic kyphosis(TK),lumbar lordosis(LL),pelvic incidence(PI),pelvic tilt(PT),sacral slope(SS),sagittal vertical axis(SVA),T1 pelvic angle(TPA)and PI-LL.Vertebral wedge angle(WA)in Kümmell was mea-sured and differences in parameters among groups were analyzed and the relationship between spino-pelvic parameters and WA,SK were also investigated.Results TK,SK,PT,SVA,TPA and PI-LL in Kümmell group were significantly larger than those in control group(P＜0.05),LL and SS in Kümmell group were significantly decreased than those in control group(P＜0.05),and there was no significant difference in PI between two groups(P＞0.05).In Kümmell group,WA(30.8±5.9)° showed a positive correlation with SK and TK(r=0.366,0.597,P＜0.05),and SK was significantly correlated with LL and SS(r=0.539,-0.591,P＜0.05).Strong positive correlation between LL and PI,SS,SVA,TPA,PI-LL were also confirmed in patients with Kümmell with kyphosis(r=0.559,0.741,-0.273,-0.356,-0.882,P＜0.05).Conclusion Patients with Kümmell with kyphosis not only have segmental kyphosis,but also changes the overall spinal-pelvic sagittal parameters,including loss of lumbar lordosis,pelvic retrorotation,trunk forward tilt.The surgical treatment of Kümmell disease should not only pay attention to the recovery of the height of the collapsed vertebra,but also focus on the overall balance of the spine-pelvic sagittal plane for patients with kyphosis.
