Objective： To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Tonifying kidney and activating blood therapy for the treatment of diabetic mellitus erectile dysfunction. Methods： China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI), Wanfang Data, VIP, Chinese Biomedical Database(CBM), PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase and Web of Science were searched from inception until October 20th of 2024，for randomized controlled trials of Tonifying kidney and activating blood therapy for the treatment of diabetic erectile dysfunction. Literature screening, quality evaluation, and data extraction were carried out in accordance with relevant standards. The software of RevMan5.4 was used for the analysis of publication bias. And meta-analysis was conducted to assess the impact of this therapy on IIEF-5, total effective rate, adverse reactions. The evidence levels according to the analysis results were evaluated. Results: Totally 19 RCTs were included, involving 1 612 patients. The result of meta-analysis indicated that Tonifying kidney and activating blood therapy had advantages on the improvement of IIEF-5 scores (MD=3.59，95%CI［2.14，5.03］，P<0.01)，total effective rate (OR=4.30，95%CI［3.29，5.32］，P<0.000 01）. However, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions(OR=0.98，95%CI［0.48，2.01］，P=0.96) between the two groups. Conclusions： Tonifying kidney and activating blood therapy can improve the clinical efficacy and IIEF-5 score for the patients with diabetic erectile dysfunction. But considering the limited quantity of included studies, more high-quality studies still be needed to validate the therapeutic effect.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:This study comprehensively analyzed the genomic characterizations of human parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPIV3) strains circulating in six provinces and cities of China (Beijing, Henan, Jilin, Anhui, Gansu, and Shandong) during the period of 2019-2020. The aim was to elucidate the intricate genetic variations and molecular evolutionary trends within the HPIV3 genome.Methods:Based on genotypic differentiation, genetic divergence, and spatial and temporal distribution, 12 representative HPIV3 strains (including 7 of C3a subtype, 2 of C3b subtype and 3 of C3f subtype) were selected from the aforementioned provinces, and the complete genome sequence was successfully obtained by overlapping amplification of fragments using nested RT-PCR. Subsequently, a complete genome database of global representative HPIV3 strains was constructed and analyzed using bioinformatics tools.Results:The length of complete genome of the 12 HPIV3 strains in the present study varied between 15 227 bp and 15 370 bp, the G+ C content ranged from 35.1% to 35.3% and the nucleotide identity intermediated from 97.6% to 99.6%. Compared with the prototype strain (GenBank accession number: NC_001796.2), the nucleotide identity of 12 HPIV3 strains ranged from 94.2% to 94.5%. Analysis of the complete genome of HPIV3 available in China and globally showed that the genomic variation of HPIV3 was mainly shaped by substitution mutations, and no base deletions or gene recombination were observed.Only a six-base insertion (ATTAAA) was found in the F gene’s 3′UTR region of a representative strain originating from Jilin province (CHN/Jilin036/2019/C3b) in this study, and its potential pathogenic significance needs to be further investigated. Amino acid analysis of the encoded proteins revealed that the C3a lineage of HPIV3, widely prevalent both in China and worldwide, exhibits lineage-specific mutation sites in the N, P and L proteins. Furthermore, within the Chinese prevalent C3a strains, a distinctive mutation site (N216S) in L protein was also identified. Notably, specific variant sites have not been found in Chinese C3b and C3f branch strains. Based on the complete genome, the comprehensive evolutionary analysis showed that the time to the most recent common ancestor (tMRCA) of global HPIV3 strains was estimated to 1927 (95% HPD: 1901-1945), with an average molecular evolutionary rate of 5.29 × 10 -4 substitutions/site/year, while the average molecular evolutionary rate of HPIV3 strains in China is 5.24 × 10 -4 substitutions/site/year. In addition, each gene of HPIV3 was subjected to negative selection pressure, with the P, HN and F genes showing the most significant nucleotide variation and higher rates of molecular evolution than the other genes. Conclusions:This study reveals that the complete genome of HPIV3 strains circulating in six provinces and cities of China tend to evolve conservatively. Moreover, substitution emerge as the main driving force for molecular evolution of HPIV3.

Femoral neck fracture (FNF) in the elderly patients is currently a major health challenge worldwide, with excessive consumption of medical resources, high incidence of complications as well as suboptimal outcome and prognosis. Hip joint arthroplasty (HJA) has been the mainstream treatment for FNF in the elderly, but the conventional surgical approaches and techniques are still confronted with a series of bottlenecks such as dislocation, limp and limb length discrepancy. In recent years, direct anterior approach (DAA) for HJA (DAA-HJA) has been a major new choice in the field of joint replacement, which achieves improved clinical effectiveness of HJA in the treatment of elderly FNF, due to the fact that DAA approach involves the neuromuscular interface and accords with the idea of soft tissue retention and enhanced recovery after surgery. However, there is still a lack of unified understanding of standard technique and procedure of DAA-HJA in the treatment of elderly FNF. Therefore, relevant experts from the Hip Joint Group of Chinese Orthopedics Association of Chinese Medical Association, Youth Arthrology Group of Orthopedic Committee of PLA, Orthopedic Committee of Chongqing Medical Association, Branch of Orthopedic Surgeons of Chongqing Medical Doctor Association and Sport Medicine Committee of Chongqing Medical Association were organized to formulate the " Chinese expert consensus on the technical standard of direct anterior hip arthroplasty for elderly femoral neck fracture ( version 2023)" based on evidence-based medicine. This consensus mainly proposed 13 recommendations covering indications, surgical plans, prosthesis selections, surgical techniques and processes, and postoperative management of DAA-HJA in elderly patients with FNF, aiming to promote standardized, systematic and patient-specific diagnosis and treatment to improve the functional prognosis of the patients.

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of salivary pepsin test (Peptest) in the diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).Methods:From April to October 2022, at the Department of Gastroenterology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, a total of 81 patients with typical reflux and (or) heartburn symptoms for more than 1 month, who were diagnosed with GERD and completed 24-hour esophageal pH impedance monitoring (24 h MII-pH) and high-resolution esophageal manometry were enrolled. Salivary samples were collected after lunch, at the onset of symptoms, and at random time point on the day of intubation, and all patients received standard dose of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) for 2 weeks. The 24 h MII-pH results were taken as the gold standard for diagnosing GERD. The optimal time point of Peptest and the diagnostic value of combination of Peptest and PPI test in GERD diagnosis were analyzed. The 24 h MII-pH negative patients were further divided into Peptest-positive group and Peptest-negative group. The heartbrun scores, gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire (GERD-Q), reflux characteristics, and esophageal motility between the 2 groups were compared and to investigate the differential diagnostic value of Peptest in 24 h MII-pH negative patients. Chi-square test and non-parametric test were used for statistical analysis.Results:The results of 24 h MII-pH indicated that 21 patients (25.9%, 21/81) were diagnosed GERD and 60 patients were negative for 24 h MII-pH. The onset of symptoms was the optimal time point for Peptest, with a sensitivity of 80.9%, a specificity of 50.0%, and an accuracy of 58.0%. The specificity and accuracy of Peptest at the onset of symptoms combined with PPI test in GERD diagnosis were higher than those of Peptest at the onset of symptoms alone (75.0% vs. 50.0%, 74.1% vs. 58.0%), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=8.00 and 4.65, P=0.005 and 0.031). Among 60 cases of 24 h MII-pH negative patients, 30 were positive for Peptest at the onset of symptoms and 30 were negative for Peptest at the onset of symptoms. The heartburn scores and GERD-Q scores of Peptest-positive group were both higher than those of Peptest-negative group (3.0 (2.0, 3.0) vs. 1.0 (0.0, 2.3), 12.0 (9.8, 13.0) vs. 9.0 (6.0, 11.0) ); the clearance time of acid reflux of Peptest-positive group was longer than that of Peptest-negative group (57.0 s (22.3 s, 88.0 s) vs. 18.3 s (9.6 s, 32.1 s) ); the lower esophageal sphincter resting pressure and integrated relaxation pressure were lower than those of Peptest-negative group (10.40 mmHg (5.75 mmHg, 18.95 mmHg) vs. 21.45 mmHg (10.65 mmHg, 31.70 mmHg), 3.90 mmHg (2.05 mmHg, 5.35 mmHg) vs. 4.90 mmHg (3.76 mmHg, 8.25 mmHg); 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa); the distal mean nocturnal baseline impedance, the distal contractile integral and esophagogastric junction contractile integral were all lower than those of Peptest-negative group ( 1 783 Ω (1 660 Ω, 2 157 Ω) vs. 2 300 Ω(1 805 Ω, 2 370 Ω), 1 416 mmHg·s·cm (919 mmHg·s·cm, 2 176 mmHg·s·cm) vs. 1 858 mmHg·s·cm (1 395 mmHg·s·cm, 2 880 mmHg·s·cm), 27.7 mmHg·cm (19.8 mmHg·cm, 39.5 mmHg·cm) vs. 52.6 mmHg·cm (27.7 mmHg·cm, 74.6 mmHg·cm) ), and the differences were statistically significant ( Z=-4.00, -3.53, -3.31, -2.34, -2.13, -2.75, -2.14 and -2.43; P<0.001, <0.001, =0.001, =0.019, =0.033, =0.006, =0.032 and =0.015). Conclusions:Peptest may be better at diagnosing GERD at the onset of symptoms compared to postprandial, random time points, and the accuracy of diagnosing GERD further improves when combined with PPI test. Peptest at the onset of symptoms may have differential diagnostic value for GERD patients in 24 h MII-pH negative patients.
