BACKGROUND:Currently, the treatment of proximal humeral fractures mainly contains joint preservation (conservative treatment, open reduction and internal fixation) and arthroplasty, but how to choose the treatment is stil controversial. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate and compare the clinical outcomes of joint preservation versus arthroplasty in the treatment of displaced 3-or 4-part humeral fractures in randomized control ed trials using meta-analysis. METHODS:Medline (January 1966 to December 2013), PubMed (January 1980 to December 2013), Embase (January 1990 to December 2013), Science (January 1990 to December 2013), Springer (January 1990 to December 2013), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (1994 to 2013), and Wanfang database (1982 to 2013) were searched for randomized control ed trials addressing joint preservation and arthroplasty for 3-or 4-part proximal humeral fractures. Articles meeting the inclusion criteria were included. The related data were extracted and loaded onto Comprehensive Meta-Analysis Software for meta-analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Seven articles with 320 patients (165 patients undergoing joint preservation and 155 patients receiving arthroplasty) were accepted in this mete-analysis and al of them were high-quality English researches by modified Jadad Scale. Meta-analysis results displayed that the random-effects mean Constant score across al types was 55.9 (95%CI:50.7-61.1;P<0.001). Constant score was higher in the joint preservation group than in the arthroplasty group (P<0.01). The study displayed significant heterogeneity (I2 0.001). In the meta-analysis, Constant scores were decreased with increasing rate of male to female and rate of tuberosity resorption. These results suggested that 3-or 4-part proximal humeral fractures demonstrate improved Constant scores when treated with joint-preserving options compared with arthroplasty. Moreover, age, fracture pattern, gender ratio and complication rate are significant predictors of the Constant score. Given the observed heterogeneity and variance in treatment techniques in the included studies, more randomized control ed trial studies are needed to definitively recommend joint-preserving techniques versus arthroplasty for treatment of 3-or 4-part proximal humeral fractures.=88%, Q statistic=107.6, Q=13;P<0.001).

OBJECTIVE:To study the influential factors related to efficacy of Peach kernel-Rheum palmatum couplet medi-cines in TCM formula,and to reveal the general regularity of compatibility environment,common ratio,processing variety and dosage forms of P. kernel-R. palmatum couplet medicines. METHODS:Using Chinese Medical Prescription Selected Dictionary ed-ited by Peng Huairen as data source,142 formulas of P. kernel-R. palmatum couplet medicines were collected. By establishing data-base,compatibility types of P. kernel-R. palmatum couplet medicines,as well as common ratio,processed prodact,dosage form were classified statistically. The influential factors related to efficacy of P. kernel-R. palmatum couplet medicines with different pro-portions were summarized. RESULTS:The efficacy of P. kernel-R. palmatum couplet medicines could be divided into 6 aspects and 11 roles,including activating blood circulation to dissipate blood stasis(activating blood to relieve pain,promoting blood circula-tion to eliminate disease,activating blood to promote menstruation,breaking stagnant and eliminating blood stasis),eliminating carbuncle and detoxicating(cleaning intestine and clearing away the pathogenic heat of lung,eliminating carbuncle and expelling pus,eliminating sore and detoxicating),expelling the pathogenic heat to loosen the bowels,warming yang for dispelling cold,forti-fying the spleen and nourishing the stomach,relaxing tendon and activating blood. The compatibility environment of P. kernel-R. pal-matum couplet medicines were mainly compatible with TCM for activating qi to eliminate stasis,activating blood to promote menstru-ation,breaking stagnant and eliminating blood stasis,expelling the pathogenic heat to expel stasis. The ratio of P. kernel to R. palma-tum ranged 1 : 8-4 : 1,and the ratio ranged 1 : 8-3 : 1 when performing the role of actirating blood circalation to dissipate blood stasis. Common processed products were crude P. kernel and prepared R. palmatum. Common dosage forms were mainly decoction,pill and powder. CONCLUSIONS:Compatibility environment,ratio,processing varieties,dosage forms influence the effects of P. kernel-R. palmatum couplet medicines,especially compatibility environment.

Abstract： Objective　To analyze the characteristics and corresponding drug resistance of pathogenic bacterial spectrum in eight major infection sites of hospitalized patients, and to provide epidemiological data for the rational selection of antibiotics in clinical practice. Methods　A total of 396 bacterial strains isolated from clinical specimens of hospitalized patients in member institutions of the Hainan Provincial Bacterial Resistance Monitoring Network from September 1, 2020, to September 30, 2022, were included in this study. Data were screened and filtered from the database of MH120 Microbial Identification and Drug Sensitivity Analysis System based on the technical scheme of the National Bacterial Drug Resistance Surveillance Network and Science and Technology Basic Resources Investigation Project research plan in 2020. The testing data were integrated, summarized, and analyzed using EXCEL and WHONET 5.6 software, and statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS 26.0 software. Results　Among of 396 strains of bacteria, 78 (19.7%) were isolated from respiratory tract specimens, 74 (18.7%) from urinary tract specimens, 72 (18.2%) from blood specimens, 54 (13.6%) from abdominal cavity specimens, 48 (12.1%) from skin and soft tissue specimens 48 strains (12.1%), 30 (7.6%) from reproductive tract specimens, 22 (5.6%) from central nervous system specimens, 18 (4.5%) from digestive tract specimens. Gram-negative bacteria accounted for 69.4% of the isolates, while gram-positive bacteria accounted for 30.6%. The top five gram-negative bacteria isolated were Klebsiella pneumoniae (14.9%), Escherichia coli (14.4%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (10.4%), Acinetobacter baumannii (5.3%), and Salmonella species (4.5%). The top five gram-positive bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus (11.1%), Streptococcus agalactis (7.8%), Enterococcus faecalis (3.0%), Enterococcus faecium (2.8%), and Streptococcus suis (1.8%). Respiratory failure and bloodstream infection were independent influencing factors of treatment response (P<0.01). The resistance rate of Escherichia coli to ampicillin was 81.4%, and the resistance rate of Staphylococcus aureus to gentamicin and levofloxacin were both below 7%. Conclusions　The pathogen spectra vary with different infection sites of patients, and rational selection of antibiotics based on drug susceptibility testing is crucial to shorten the treatment time of patients and avoid the unnecessary emergence of drug-resistant strains caused by drug abuse.

Objective To identify the interaction between nuclear localization signal-retinoic acid receptor α (NLS-RARα) and Ubiquilin 1(UBQLN1). Methods The recombination expression plasmids pGBKT7-NLS-RAR and pACT2-UBQLN1, which expressed bait-protein NLS-RARα and target protein UBQLN1 respectively, were cotransformated into yeast AH109. The interaction of the expression plasmids in the living cells was investigated by yeast two-hybrid assay. HA-tagged fusion protein (pCMV-HA-NLS-RARα) expression vector and Myc-tagged fusion protein (pCMV-Myc-JTV1) expression vector were constructed, identified, and cotransfected respectively into human embryo kidney 293 cells(HEK293). The interaction was detected by co-immunoprecipitation.Results Blue clones were found on yeast AH109 plate cotransformated with pGBKT7-NLS-RARα and pACT2-UBQLN1. Double restriction enzyme digestion showed that pCMV-HA-NLS-RARα and pCMV-Myc-JTV1 were successfully constructed. Then HA-NLS-RAR protein was immunoprecipitated by anti-HA polyclonal antibody and the expression of Myc-UBQLN1 was tested by Western blot with anti-Myc monoclonal antibody from immunoprecipitated complex. Conclusion The interaction between NLS-RARα and UBQLN1 can be verified by yeast two-hybrid assay and co-immunoprecipitation.

Objective To investigate the differences of 10-week running and badminton exercise on bone mineral density(BMD) and related biochemistry markers in female university student.Methods Sixty healthy female university students were randomly divided into running(R) group,badminton(B) group and control group.Apart from basic physical education class,the R and B group participated in running and badminton exercise respectively(30-40 min per time,3 times per week,10 weeks).Before and after test,the BMD of lumbar vertebra and femurs,the serum level of estradiol(E2) and testosterone(T),the serum level of alkaline phosphatase(ALP)and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase(TRACP) were all detected.Results After test,there were no significant difference on BMD in all parameters of the three groups(P>0.05).After test,the serum level of E2 and TRACP in R group were significant higher than those in control group(t=-3.351,t=-0.854,P<0.05),the serum level of Ca was significant lower than that in control group(t=-1.852,P<0.05).Comparison between before test and after test,the serum level of E2 and P increased significantly in R group(P<0.05),while the serum level of TRACP decreased significantly(P<0.05),the serum level of P and Ca increased in the three groups(P<0.05),while no differences were seen in the other parameters.Conclusion The effects of running exercise on serum level of E2 and TRACP were higher than badminton exercise.

Objective To investigate the cause of tumor cell migration by comparing the effect of substrate stiffness on hepatic and hepatoma carcinoma cell migration so as to understand the invasive characteristics of tumor cells. Methods Immunofluorescence staining, morphological analysis and transwell were employed to observe the morphological characteristics of HCCLM3 and L02 cells on different substrates and test their migration characteristics with the quantitative analysis. Results (1) The migration rate and net translocation of HCCLM3 and L02 cells on 4 kPa substrate was higher than those both on 0.5 kPa(most soft one) and on glass (the hardest one) substrates, and L02 cells also displayed higher migration efficiency than HCCLM3 cells on such substrates. (2) The mean squared displacement of HCCLM3 and L02 cells on different substrates showed consistent tendency, and the directional persistence of L02 cells on the softer substrate was significantly higher than that of HCCLM3 cells. (3) In 0.5 and 1 mg/mL three dimensional collagen environment, the number of invasive cells of HCCLM3 was remarkably more than that of L02 cells. After adding MMPs inhibitor GM6001 (40 μg/mL), the number of invasive cells was notably increased in HCCLM3 cells, but notably decreased in L02 cells. Conclusions (1) In two dimensional comparatively soft environment, L02 cells displayed an efficient migration due to its higher directional persistence. (2) In three-dimensional collagen environment, the invasion efficiency of HCCLM3 cells was significantly higher due to the various modes of migration adaptation to the microenvironment.
