Immobilized enzyme-based enzyme electrode biosensors, characterized by high sensitivity and efficiency, strong specificity, and compact size, demonstrate broad application prospects in life science research, disease diagnosis and monitoring, etc. Immobilization of enzyme is a critical step in determining the performance (stability, sensitivity, and reproducibility) of the biosensors. Random immobilization (physical adsorption, covalent cross-linking, etc.) can easily bring about problems, such as decreased enzyme activity and relatively unstable immobilization. Whereas, directional immobilization utilizing amino acid residue mutation, affinity peptide fusion, or nucleotide-specific binding to restrict the orientation of the enzymes provides new possibilities to solve the problems caused by random immobilization. In this paper, the principles, advantages and disadvantages and the application progress of enzyme electrode biosensors of different directional immobilization strategies for enzyme molecular sensing elements by specific amino acids (lysine, histidine, cysteine, unnatural amino acid) with functional groups introduced based on site-specific mutation, affinity peptides (gold binding peptides, carbon binding peptides, carbohydrate binding domains) fused through genetic engineering, and specific binding between nucleotides and target enzymes (proteins) were reviewed, and the application fields, advantages and limitations of various immobilized enzyme interface characterization techniques were discussed, hoping to provide theoretical and technical guidance for the creation of high-performance enzyme sensing elements and the manufacture of enzyme electrode sensors.

Lymph node metastasis (LNM) is a crucial risk factor influencing an unfavorable prognosis in specific cancers. Fundamental research illuminates our understanding of tumor behavior and identifies valuable therapeutic targets. Nevertheless, the exploration of fundamental theories and the validation of clinical therapies hinge on preclinical experiments. Preclinical models, in this context, serve as the conduit connecting fundamental theories to clinical outcomes. In vivo models established in animals offer a valuable platform for comprehensively observing interactions between tumor cells and organisms. Using various experimental animals, including mice, diverse methods, such as carcinogen-induced tumorigenesis, tumor cell line or human tumor transplantation, genetic engineering, and humanization, have been used effectively to construct numerous models for tumor LNM. Carcinogen-induced models simulate the entire process of tumorigenesis and metastasis. Transplantation models, using human tumor cell lines or patient-derived tumors, offer a research platform closely mirroring the histology and clinical behavior of human tumors. Genetically engineered models have been used to delve into the mechanisms of primary tumorigenesis within an intact microenvironment. Humanized models are used to overcome barriers between human and murine immune systems. Beyond mouse models, various other animal models have unique advantages and limitations, all contributing to exploring LNM. This review summarizes existing in vitro and animal preclinical models, identifies current bottlenecks in preclinical research, and offers an outlook on forthcoming preclinical models.

Objective:To compare the consistency of lymphoma multigene detection panels based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) with FISH detection of B-cell lymphoma gene rearrangement.Methods:From January 2019 to May 2023, fusion genes detected by lymphoma-related 413 genes that targeted capture sequencing of 489 B-cell lymphoma tissues embedded in paraffin were collected from Henan Cancer Hospital, and the results were compared with simultaneous FISH detection of four break/fusion genes: BCL2, BCL6, MYC, and CCND1. Consistency was defined as both methods yielding positive or negative results for the same sample. The relationship between fusion mutation abundance in NGS and the positivity rate of cells in FISH was also analyzed.Results:Kappa consistency analysis revealed high consistency between NGS and FISH in detecting the four B-cell lymphoma-related gene rearrangement ( P<0.001 for all) ; however, the detection rates of positive individuals differed for the four genes. Compared with FISH, NGS demonstrated a higher detection rate for BCL2 rearrangement, a lower detection rate for BCL6 and MYC rearrangement, and a similar detection rate for CCND1 rearrangement. No correlation was found between fusion mutation abundance in NGS and the positivity rate of cells in FISH. Conclusions:NGS and FISH detection of B-cell lymphoma gene rearrangement demonstrate overall good consistency. NGS is superior to FISH in detecting BCL2 rearrangement, inferior in detecting MYC rearrangement, and comparable in detecting CCND1 rearrangement.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of arthroscopy combined with cubital tunnel expansion and plasty in the treatment of patients with elbow osteoarthritis and cubital tunnel syndrome.Methods A total of 101 patients with elbow osteoarthritis and cubital tunnel syndrome who were admitted to the Department of Orthopedics,Cangzhou Hospital of Integrated TCM-WM Hebei from September 2020 to August 2023 were selected as the research subjects.According to different surgical methods,the patients were divided into an observation group(n=51)and a control group(n=50).The surgical method in the observation group was arthroscopy combined with cubital tunnel expansion and plasty,and the surgical method in the control group was conventional cubital tunnel expansion and plasty.The operation time,intraoperative blood loss,length of hospital stay,and complications were observed and recorded for both groups.The mayo elbow performance score(MEPS)was used to assess elbow function,the activities of daily living(ADL)scale was used to evaluate daily living ability,and the visual analogue scale(VAS)was used to assess pain levels preoperatively and at 6 months postoperatively.Elbow range of motion,including pronation,supination,and flexion-extension,was measured using a goniometer.Nerve recovery was evaluated by measuring compound muscle action potential(CMAP)of the abductor digiti minimi,ulnar nerve conduction velocity(NCV),and motor evoked potential latency(MEPLP)using a Keypoint electromyography device.Results The operation time and length of hospital stay in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group,and the intraoperative blood loss and complications were significantly less than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Before operation,there were no statistically significant differences in MEPS scores,ADL scores and VAS scores between the observation group and the control group(P＞0.05);6 months after operation,the MEPS scores and ADL scores of patients in the observation group were signifi-cantly higher than those in the control group,and the VAS scores were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Before operation,there were no statistically significant differences in pronation,supination and flexion-extension between the observation group and the control group(P＞0.05);6 months after operation,the pronation,supination and flexion-extension of patients in the two groups were significantly higher than those before operation(P＜0.05),but there were no statistically significant differences in pronation,supination and flexion-extension between the observation group and the control group(P＞0.05).Before operation,there were no statistically significant differences in CMAP,NCV and MEPLP between the observation group and the control group(P＞0.05);6 months after operation,the CMAP and NCV of patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group,and the MEPLP ratio was significantly lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Conventional cubital tunnel expansion and plasty and arthroscopy combined with cubital tunnel expansion and plasty can improve the range of motion of the elbow in patients with elbow osteoar-thritis and cubital tunnel syndrome,but the latter features less damage and faster recovery,is better in improving elbow function and daily living ability,reducing pain,and adjusting electromyographic examination indicators,and has fewer complications.

Objective To analyze the setup errors during proton and heavy ion therapy for head and head neck tumor patients fixed by thermoplastic film combined with styrofoam.Methods Totally 20 patients undergoing proton and heavy ion therapy at some hospital from January to December 2018 were selected retrospectively,of whom 10 ones had head tumors with clinical targets located in the head and the other 10 cases had head and neck tumors with clinical targets distributed in the head and neck.All the 20 patients were fixed with thermoplastic film combined with styrofoam.The head and neck images of the patients acquired after image guidance were aligned with the CT localization-based digitally reconstructed radiograph images,and the setup errors at six-dimensional directions(left-right translation,head-foot translation,forward-backward translation,isocentric rotation,pitch rotation and transverse-roll rotation)were recorded in the first five and the last five times of radiotherapy treatment.The data were processed by using the SPSS 23.0 statistical software and EXCEL.Results There were no significant differences between the head tumor patients in the setup errors at the six directions during the first and last five times of radiotherapy(P＞0.05).The head and neck tumor patients did not have obvious differences in the setup errors at the the directions of left-right translation,forward-backward translation,isocentric rotation and transverse-roll rotation(P＞0.05),while did at the directions of head-foot translation and pitch rotation(P＜0.05).The head and head neck tumor patients with the fixation by thermoplastic film combined with styrofoam had their setup errors at the six directions meet clinical requirements after calibration by the six-dimensional treatment table.Conclusion The fixation mode by thermoplastic film and styrofoam behaves well to enhance the setup repeatability for head tumor patients at the six-dimensional directions,while not so well for head neck tumor patients at the directions of head-foot translation and pitch rotation.Proper measures have to be taken to decrease the setup errors during proton and heavy ion therapy for head and head neck tumor patients.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(7):56-61]

Objective To investigate the risk factors of hip instability in elderly patients with femoral neck fracture after hemiarthroplasty(HA).Methods The medical records of 133 patients with femoral neck fracture who received HA treatment in the Department of Orthopedics of our hospital from January 2015 to October 2022 were retrospectively collected.According to whether the patients suffered hip dislocation after surgery,the patients were divided into dislocation group(n=35)and non-dislocation group(n=98).Demographic variables such as age,sex and body mass index(BMI)were recorded in the two groups.Complications such as diabetes,hypertension,heart disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)were recorded.Prosthetic type,surgical approach,soft tissue repair type,blood loss and other surgical phase variables were recorded.Central marginal Angle(CEA),extraneous Angle(ABA),eccentricity,lower limb length difference(LLD),acetabular width,acetabular depth,and femoral head coverage(FCR)were measured on radiographs.Wald method was used to establish Logistic regression model to elucidate the risk factors of dislocation after HA.Results The proportion of COPD in the dislocation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05),and there was no significant difference in baseline characteristics between the two groups(P＞0.05).There was no significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).There were no significant differences in CEA,ABA,LLD,acetabular width,eccentricity and FCR between 2 groups(P＞0.05),but the acetabular depth and depto-width ratio in luxation group were significantly lower than those in control group(P＜0.05).Gender,COPD,CEA,acetabular width-to-depth ratio and LLD were independent risk factors for hip instability after HA(P＜0.05).Conclusion In this study,COPD,male,LLD,and small CEA and acetabular broad-to-depth ratio are independent risk factors for hip instability after HA,and therefore HA is not recommended for the treatment of femoral neck fractures in elderly patients with these conditions.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.
