Hypomyelinating leukodystrophies (HLDs) are a group of neurodegenerative diseases characterized by decreased myelination in the central nervous system, with diverse clinical manifestations like psychomotor retardation and dyskinesia.Some HLDs patients have epilepsy, microcephaly and other clinical manifestations.At present, there is no specific treatment of HLDs, and the prognosis is usually poor.At present, with the wide application of gene screening in clinical practice, many pathogenic genes related to HLDs have been found.It is particularly important to clarify the pathogenesis and clinical phenotypic changes of HLDs.

Objective As a signaling molecule,NO regulates key physiological processes and is closely related to periodontitis.To investigate the effect of flavonoid NO donor composite nanoparticles(G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS)on osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells(PDLSCs)by regulating macrophage polarization.Methods The novel NO donor drug G10 was loaded on hydroxyapatite/mesoporous silicanant particles(HAP/MSN),filled with zinc oxide(ZnO),and then coated with chitosan(COS)to prepare composite nanoparticles(G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS).The best concentration of G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS was screened to promote cell proliferation by CCK-8 cell experiment.After the mouse mononuclear macrophages were stimulated by lipopo-lysaccharide,the mice were divided into four groups:Control group,G10 group,HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS group and G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS group.Each group was cultured with fresh medium,5 μg/mL G10,5 μg/mL HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS and 5 μg/mL G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS for 72 h respectively.ELISA and RT-qPCR were used to detect the expression of cytokines(TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β,iNOS,IL-10)and mRNA expression in each group,and the phenotypic changes of M1/M2 were evaluated.The supernatant of each culture medium was used as conditioned medium to culture PDLSCs,and the osteogenic ability and cell miner-alization were evaluated by alkaline phosphatase activity test and alizarin red staining.Results CCK-8 experiment showed that G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS of 5 μg/mL could significantly promote the proliferation of PDLSCs.The results of ELISA showed that compared with Control group,the expression of M1 type marker IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α and iNOS in G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS group was significantly decreased(P＜0.000 1),while the expression of M2 type marker IL-10 was significantly increased(P＜0.000 1).The results of RT-qPCR were consistent with those of ELISA,which showed that the expression of M1-related genes in G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS group decreased significantly(P＜0.01).The results of alizarin red staining and alkaline phosphatase activity test showed that the number of mineralized nodules and alkaline phosphatase activity in G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS-CM group were significantly higher than those in other groups(P＜0.000 1).Conclusion Composite nanoparticles(G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS)can effectively inhibit the polarization of macrophages to M1 phenotype and promote it to M2 phenotypic polarization.The anti-inflammatory microenvironment regulated by G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS can en-hance the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs.

Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have revolutionized the treatment landscape for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). However, TKI resistance poses a significant challenge, leading to treatment failure and disease progression. Resistance mechanisms include both BCR::ABL1-dependent and BCR::ABL1-independent pathways. The mechanisms underlying BCR::ABL1 independence remain incompletely understood, with CML cells potentially activating alternative signaling pathways, including the AKT/mTOR and JAK2/STAT5 pathways, to compensate for the loss of BCR::ABL1 kinase activity. This study explored tumoral VISTA (encoded by VSIR) as a contributing factor to TKI resistance in CML patients and identified elevated tumoral VISTA levels as a marker of resistance and poor survival. Through in vitro and in vivo analyses, we demonstrated that VSIR knockdown and the application of NSC-622608, a novel VISTA inhibitor, significantly impeded CML cell proliferation and induced apoptosis by attenuating the AKT/ mTOR and JAK2/STAT5 pathways, which are crucial for CML cell survival independent of BCR::ABL1 kinase activity. Moreover, VSIR overexpression promoted TKI resistance in CML cells. Importantly, the synergistic effect of NSC-622608 with TKIs offers a potent therapeutic avenue against both imatinib-sensitive and imatinib-resistant CML cells, including those harboring the challenging T315I mutation. Our findings highlight the role of tumoral VISTA in mediating TKI resistance in CML, suggesting that inhibition of VISTA, particularly in combination with TKIs, is an innovative approach to enhancing treatment outcomes in CML patients, irrespective of BCR::ABL1 mutation status. This study not only identified a new pathway contributing to TKI resistance but also revealed the possibility of targeting tumoral VISTA as a means of overcoming this significant clinical challenge.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of lower limb neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) on mechanical ventilation patients in intensive care unit (ICU).Methods:Databases including the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, SinoMed, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang database were searched from inception to May 2021. Randomized controlled trails (RCT) about the influence of NMES of lower limbs in patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU were collected. Routine rehabilitation measures were implemented in the control group, while the combination of routine rehabilitation and NMES on the lower limbs was implemented in the observation group. The literature screening, data extracting, and bias risk assessment of included studies were conducted independently by two reviewers. RevMan 5.3 software was used to perform Meta-analysis. Funnel plot was used to test publication bias.Results:A total of 8 RCT were eventually enrolled. The literature quality evaluation results showed that 1 study was grade A and 7 studies were grade B, suggesting that the quality of the included literature was relatively high. The Meta-analysis results showed that NMES in the lower extremities could effectively shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation in ICU patients [standardized mean difference ( SMD) = -0.51, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was -0.72 to -0.31, P < 0.000 01], increase the maximum inspiratory pressure [MIP; mean difference ( MD) = 14.19, 95% CI was 9.30 to 19.09, P < 0.000 01], and improve the functional status of critically ill patients [functional status score for ICU (FSS-ICU); MD = 10.44, 95% CI was 3.12 to 17.77, P = 0.005] with statistically significances. However, there were no significant advantages in increasing the Medical Research Council (MRC) score ( MD = 2.13, 95% CI was -1.38 to 5.63, P = 0.23), reducing ICU mortality [relative risk ( RR) = 0.80, 95% CI was 0.51 to 1.24, P = 0.31], shortening length of ICU stay ( MD = -0.54, 95% CI was -3.67 to 2.59, P = 0.74), and the combined effect was not statistically significant. Funnel plot based on the duration of mechanical ventilation showed that the distribution of included articles was basically symmetrical, and no publication bias was detected. Conclusions:NMES of the lower limbs can not only shorten the ventilation duration effectively, but also improve the MIP and functional status of mechanically ventilated patients in ICU. However, it has no significant effect on the MRC score, ICU mortality and length of ICU stay of patients with mechanical ventilation. In the future, high-quality, large sample size and multi-center RCT are needed to verify the effects of NMES.

Objective:To analyze the clinical effects of the pre-expanded internal mammary artery perforator flap in large chest keloids surgical treatment.Methods:Patients with large chest keloid were treated with the pre-expanded internal mammary artery perforator flap between January 2017 and September 2021. The surgical treatment was divided into two different phases. In the first phase, a tissue expander was implanted beneath the skin within the angiosome of the internal mammary artery perforator. The expander was injected with normal saline once a week. In the second phase, the expander and the keloid tissue were removed, and a pre-expanded internal mammary artery perforator flap was designed to cover the wound. Radiotherapy and hyperbaric oxygen therapy were performed in the postoperative period. The treatment effect was followed up. The postoperative complications were analyzed, and the recurrence and patient satisfaction rates were recorded.Results:A total of 41 patients were enrolled, including 20 male and 21 female patients. The patients’ age ranged from 24 to 64, with a mean disease history of 11.9 years. The mean size of the keloid was 9 cm × 8 cm. Some patients were treated with one expander, but four expanders were needed in some extensive cases. The volume of the expander ranged from 80 to 600 ml. The mean volume was 300 ml, with a mean expansion time of 3 months. The mean flap size was 9 cm × 8 cm. Two cases with distal necrosis were observed. Five cases suffered from partial incision scar hyperplasia. No recurrence occurred during the followed-up period. Thirty-six patients (87.8%) were satisfied with the operation effect, and five (12.2%) thought the effect was acceptable.Conclusions:The pre-expanded internal mammary artery perforator flap is an effective treatment for the large chest keloid. It can provide sufficient skin tissue for wound repair, with a stable blood supply and an excellent curative effect.

Objectives:To compare the biomechanical effects on the cervical spine between the insertion of a cervical interfacet self-locking cage(CILC)for anterior cervical interbody fusion and the insertion of a Zero-profile anterior cervical interbody fusion device(Zero-P)through the finite element method.Methods:Extracting the thin-layer cervical CT scan data of a 24-year-old male volunteer,and excluding any history of cervical spine trauma,surgery,cervical spondylosis,and imaging-diagnosed cervical spine deformities.Establishing a three-dimensional finite element model(blank model)of the normal lower cervical spine.The validity of the model was verified by comparing the range of motion(ROM)with those reported in previous studies.Based on this model,finite element models were constructed for single-segment posterior CILC insertion and fusion and Zero-P insertion and fusion.The surgical segment was set as the C4/5 segment,and CILC and Zero-P were implanted respectively to fuse and construct model.The lower endplate of the C7 vertebral body was fixed,and an axial load of 73.6N was applied to simulate the head's weight.A 1.0N·m torque was applied to the upper surface of the C2 vertebral body to simulate the overall movement of the C2-C7 finite element models,including flexion,extension,lateral bending,and axial rotation.The ROM of the segment and the stress changes in the adjacent segment intervertebral discs and facet joints were analyzed in all four motion directions for the blank model,CILC model,and Zero-P model.Results:The ROMs of the established three-dimensional finite element model of the lower cervical spine in all motion directions were consistent with previously published studies,therefore its validity was verified.Compared with the blank mod-el,the ROMs in all directions of the fusion segment was significantly reduced in both the CILC and Zero-P models.The ROM of the adjacent segments and the peak stress in the intervertebral discs and facet joints of the adjacent segments were higher in all motion directions compared with the blank model,with no significant difference in the degree of ROM increase between the CILC and Zero-P models.The peak stress increase in the intervertebral discs of adjacent segments in the CILC model was smaller than that in the Zero-P model.In the CILC model,the peak stress values of the C3/4 segment during flexion,extension,lateral bending,and rotation increased from pre-fixation values of 2.181,3.358,3.636,and 3.950MPa to post-fixation values of 2.532,3.881,4.463,and 4.917MPa,respectively.The peak stress values of the C5/6 segment during flexion,extension,lateral bending,and rotation increased from pre-fixation values of 1.558,3.996,3.778,and 3.660 MPa to post-fixation values of 1.864,4.131,4.183,and 4.266MPa,respectively.In the Zero-P model,the peak stress values of the C3/4 segment during flexion,extension,lateral bending,and rotation increased from preoperative values of 2.181,3.358,3.636,and 3.950MPa to 2.977,4.241,4.654,and 5.509MPa,respectively.The peak stress values of the C5/6 segment during flexion,extension,lateral bending,and rotation increased from pre-fixation values of 1.558,3.996,3.778,and 3.660MPa to post-fixation values of 2.314,5.214,4.469,and 4.739MPa,respectively.The peak stress increase in the adjacent facet joints in all motion directions was greater in the CILC model than in the Zero-P model.Conclusions:CILC insertion results in less impact on adjacent segment disc stress compared to Zero-P and provides reliable fixation,making it a suitable option for treating adjacent segment disease after cervical surgery.
