OBJECTIVE: To explore the effectiveness of arthroscopic All-inside single needle vertical suture technique in treatment of complete radial tear of the meniscus. METHODS: Between January 2019 and January 2022, 18 patients (18 knees) with complete radial tear of the meniscus were treated by using arthroscopic All-inside single needle vertical suture technique. Among them, there were 12 males and 6 females with an average age of 37.1 years (range, 16-50 years). The causes of radial meniscus tears included the sports injuries in 11 cases, sprains/falls in 4 cases, and traffic accident injuries in 3 cases. The interval between injury and operation was 3-25 days (mean, 11.7 days). All patients had knee joint pain. Knee joint tenderness and McMurray sign were both positive. MRI showed the 15 cases of lateral meniscus tear and 3 cases of medial meniscus tear; 15 cases of anterior cruciate ligament injury, 1 case of posterior cruciate ligament injury, and 15 cases of tibial plateau bone contusion. Six patients underwent isolated meniscus repair and 12 patients with cruciate ligament rupture underwent meniscus repair and simultaneous cruciate ligament reconstruction. The operation time and incidence of postoperative complications were recorded. At last follow-up, the meniscus healing was evaluated according to Barrett's criteria and knee joint MRI, respectively. Lysholm score and International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score were used to evaluate the functional recovery of the knee joint. RESULTS: The operation time was 19-28 minutes (mean, 23.3 minutes) in 6 patients with isolated meniscus repair and 38-52 minutes (mean, 45.8 minutes) in 12 patients with meniscus repair and simultaneous cruciate ligament reconstruction. All incisions healed by first intention. After operation, 1 patient developed the deep vein thrombosis of lower limb, the other patients had no complication. All patients were followed up 12-18 months (mean, 15.2 months). At last follow-up, 16 cases of meniscus reached clinical healing according to Barrett's criteria, with a healing rate of 88.9%. MRI re-examination of the knee joint showed that 5 cases had complete healing of the meniscus, 11 cases had partial healing, and 2 cases did not heal. The total healing rate (complete healing and partial healing) was 88.9%. After operation, the Lysholm score and IKDC score of 18 patients increased compared to preoperative scores, and further improved with time. The differences between different time points were significant ( P<0.05). Six patients with isolated meniscus repair had the same changes in the above scores, and the differences between the different time points were significant ( P<0.05). CONCLUSION The arthroscopic All-inside single needle vertical suture technique can achieve good short-term effectiveness in the treatment of complete radial tears of the meniscus.

It serves as a key reference and guide for implementing standardized perioperative nursing care in FUE hair transplantation.

Objective To investigate the effect of miR-185-5p-mediated targeted negative regulation of transmembrane 9 superfamily member 1(TM9SF1)on proliferation,migration and autophagy in lung adenocarcinoma cells.Methods The expression of miR-185-5p in lung adenocarcinoma tissues was analyzed using dataset GSE51853 downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database.Potential target proteins of miR-185-5p were predicted using online databases(miRTargetLink,miRTarbase,and DIANA-microT-CD),and autophagy-related proteins were obtained from HADb.The intersected results from these four databases was identified,and survival curves of vascular endothelial growth factor A(VEGFA)and TM9SF1 within the overlapping candidates were analyzed using the StarBase database.TM9SF1 3'UTR wild-type(WT)or TM9SF1 3'UTR mutant(MUT)reporter plasmids were separately co-transfected with miR-185-5p control plasmid(CON)or miR-185-5p overexpression plasmid(over-miR-185-5p)into HEK-293T cells.A dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was employed to assess the binding interaction between miR-185-5p and TM9SF1 and quantify the subsequent luciferase activity.Western blotting was used to assess TM9SF1 protein expression levels in A549 cells transfected with over-miR-185-5p.A549 cells were divided into three groups:(1)CON+NC group,co-transfected with miR-185-5p control plasmid and TM9SF1 control plasmid;(2)over-miR-185-5p+NC group,co-transfected with over-miR-185-5p and TM9SF1 control plasmid;(3)over-miR-185-5p+over-TM9SF1 group,co-transfected with both miR-185-5p and TM9SF1 overexpression plasmids.EdU cell proliferation assay,wound healing assay,and Transwell migration assay were performed to validate the effects of miR-185-5p targeted binding to TM9SF1 on proliferation and migration capacities in lung adenocarcinoma.Changes in autophagic flux and mitochondrial membrane potential(MMP)of lung adenocarcinoma cells were detected using stubRFP-sensGFP-LC3 lentivirus and JC-1 assays,respectively.Results In the GSE51853 dataset,miR-185-5p expression level was significantly lower in lung adenocarcinoma tissues compared with normal lung tissues(P<0.01).qRT-PCR analysis revealed that miR-185-5p expression was downregulated in lung adenocarcinoma cell lines NCI-H1299 and A549 compared with normal lung epithelial cells BEAS-2B(P<0.01).Bioinformatics predictions using miRTargetLink,miRTarbase,DIANA-microT-CD,and HADb databases indicated that miR-185-5p could target and regulate the autophagy-related protein TM9SF1.Dual-luciferase reporter assays and Western blotting demonstrated that miR-185-5p directly bound to the 3'UTR region of TM9SF1 mRNA,and overexpression of miR-185-5p significantly reduced the expression of target protein TM9SF1(P<0.05).EdU cell proliferation,wound healing,and Transwell migration assays demonstrated that miR-185-5p overexpression inhibited proliferation and migration capacities of lung adenocarcinoma cells,whereas TM9SF1 overexpression could attenuate this inhibition effect(P<0.05).Results of stubRFP-sensGFP-LC3 for autophagic flux analysis demonstrated that overexpression of miR-185-5p enhanced autophagic flux in A549 cells,whereas co-overexpression of miR-185-5p and TM9SF1 suppressed autophagic flux.JC-1 assays showed a decreased MMP level in A549 cells after miR-185-5p overexpression,with higher MMP level observed when miR-185-5p and TM9SF1 were co-overexpressed.Conclusion miR-185-5p may suppress proliferation,migration,and autophagy capacities in lung adenocarcinoma cells by targeting TM9SF1 through negative regulation.

Objective To develop a two-dimensional liquid chromatographic method for rifapentine blood concentration determination.Methods The blood concentration of rifapentine was determined by a novel two-dimensional liquid chromatography(2D-LC)with a one-dimensional column:Aston SC2T(3.5 mm ×50.0 mm,5 μm);a two-dimensional column:Aston SCB(4.6 mm ×250.0 mm,5 μm);the temperature of the column was 40 ℃;the flow rate was 1.0 mL·min-1;the detection wavelength was 335 nm;the injection volume was 300 μL.The specificity,standard curve and lower limit of quantification,precision and recovery,and stability of the method were investigated.The method was used to determine the blood concentration of rifapentine in tuberculosis patients.Results Rifapentine showed good linearity within 0.33-18.62 μg·mL-1 with the standard curve equation of y=2.68 x 105x-5 850.36(r=0.997),the recoveries were 99.81％-105.08％,and the intra-and inter-day precision were ≤4.84％.The results of rifapentine blood concentration measurements in tuberculosis patients were in the range of 0.10-54.70μg·mL-1,and 64.74％were within the therapeutic window concentration range(8-30 μg·mL-1).Conclusion The method is easy to operate,has high sensitivity,low detection limit and high specificity,and is suitable for clinical blood concentration determination.Individual differences in the administration of rifapentine in tuberculosis patients are large,and blood concentration monitoring is required for individualized treatment.

Objective To improve the efficiency of hospital antimicrobial management and ensure rational clinical use of antimicrobial agents with the aid of antimicrobial stewardship(AMS)empowered by digital intelligence tech-nology in hospital.Methods Information systems such as early warning of antimicrobial indexes,closed-loop ma-nagement of microbial detection information,and decision-making system of antimicrobial resistance monitoring data were applied to the traditional AMS system.Through hospital information systems(HIS)to collect data about thera-peutic antimicrobial use and healthcare-associated infection(HAI)quality control indexes of hospitalized patients in a tertiary first-class public hospital in Shenzhen City before and after digital technology improvement,indexes of 2021 and 2022 were as control group(before improvement)and observation group(after improvement)respective-ly,improvement trend of antimicrobial management was compared.Results After upgrading and renovating the hospital information system,hospital antimicrobial management indexes improved significantly compared to before the renovation.The use rate of antimicrobial agents and the preventive use rate of antimicrobial agents in class Ⅰincision surgery in patients in the observation group were both lower than those in the control group(27.0％vs 38.8％,20.9％vs 23.8％,respectively,both P＜0.05).Antimicrobial use density in hospitalized patients in the observa-tion group was lower than that in the control group([33.27±3.03]DDDs vs[42.06±4.42]DDDs),difference was statistically significant(t=13.11,P＜0.001).The observation group had a higher qualified rate for evaluating antimicrobial medical orders compared to the control group(98.5％vs 96.8％).The pathogenic detection rate of hospitalized patients before therapeutic antimicrobial use and pathogen detection rate related to HAI diagnosis were both higher than those in the control group(87.1％vs 84.5％,99.0％vs 95.4％,respectively),differences were both statistically significant(both P＜0.05).Conclusion Empowering the hospital's AMS system with digital technology can promote more scientific,standardized,efficient,and rational antimicrobial management in hospitals.

Objective To observe the influence of different acceleration factors(AF)on compressed sensing susceptibility weighted imaging(CS-SWI)for cerebral medullary veins of healthy people,and to screen the best AF.Methods Forty healthy volunteers were prospectively enrolled.Axial brain SWI images were obtained with CS technique under different AF(AF0,CS2,CS4,CS6,CS8 and CS10),and the phase value(PV)and standard deviation(SD)of bilateral septal vein(SV),internal cerebral vein(ICV),thalamus vein(TV),basal vein(BV)and dentate nucleus vein(DNV)were measured.Taken PV and SD of parietal white matter as controls,the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)of venous images were calculated.Then the original images were reconstructed with minimum intensity projection,and the subjective quality scoring of reconstructed images were performed using a 5-point scale.SNR,CNR,PV and quality score were compared among images under different AF,and the best AF,i.e.with the best performances for displaying and quantitatively analyzing cerebral medullary veins in healthy people was obtained.Results Compared with those acquired with AF0,SNR and CNR of all cerebral medullary veins acquired with CS6,CS8 and CS10 were significantly different(all adjusted P＜0.05).Meanwhile,significant differences of PV in bilateral SV and right TV were found among CS6,CS8 and CS10,also in bilateral ICV,left TV and bilateral BV between CS8 and CS10(all adjusted P＜0.05).Conclusion Excessive AF might decrease image quality of CS-SWI for cerebral medullary veins.CS4 was the best AF for displaying and quantitatively analyzing cerebral medullary veins in healthy people.

Coronary atherosclerotic heart disease(CHD)is an ischemic cardiovascular condition caused by the narrowing or blockage of the vascular lumen due to coronary atherosclerosis.Clinically,it presents as angina pectoris,heart failure,or sud-den cardiac death,and stands as one of the primary causes of mortality among both urban and rural populations in China.Cir-cRNA,classified as non-coding RNAs,can function as upstream regulatory molecules for miRNA or RNA-binding proteins.They actively participate in various pathological processes associated with CHD,including endothelial cell dysfunction,smooth mus-cle cell migration,macrophage-derived foam cell formation,an-giogenesis,myocardial injury,and repair,as well as post-in-farction heart failure.The expression pattern of these molecules is highly specific to the illness and tissue,indicating their poten-tial as therapeutic targets for disease management and as biomar-kers.Furthermore,they also open up new avenues for drug tar-get development in the field of traditional Chinese medicine.This article aims to provide an overview of the recent research progress on circRNA in the regulation of coronary heart disease,as well as the mechanisms involved in traditional Chinese medi-cine.It serves as a valuable reference for future research on cor-onary heart disease.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and mechanism of Nongsuo Dangguiwan in improving ovarian oxidative stress in rats with ovarian dysfunction. MethodThirty-six adult female SD rats were randomly divided into normal group， model group， positive drug group （Femoston， 0.3 mg·kg^-1）， and high-， medium-， and low-dose groups of concentrated Nongsuo Dangguiwan （2.08， 4.16， 8.32 g·kg^-1）， with six rats in each group. Rats， except for those in the normal group， were injected with 80 mg·kg^-1 vinyl cyclohexene dioxide （VCD） per day for 14 consecutive days to induce ovarian dysfunction. From the 15th day， rats were treated with corresponding drugs by gavage， while those in the model group received 2 mL·kg^-1 saline， once daily for 28 consecutive days. The ovarian index， levels of related hormones including estradiol （E₂）， follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）， luteinizing hormone （LH）， and anti-mullerian hormone （AMH） in serum， as well as superoxide dismutase （SOD） activity and glutathione （GSH） content in serum were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The malondialdehyde （MDA） content in serum was detected by the thiobarbituric acid （TAB） method. Ovarian morphology was observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. The expression of nuclear factor E₂-related factor 2 （Nrf2）， heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1）， SOD2， and SOD1 in ovarian tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry （IHC） and Western blot. ResultCompared with the normal group， the model group showed a significant reduction in growing follicles in the ovary， loose arrangement of granulosa cells in the follicle， decreased body weight， ovarian index， and serum AMH and E₂ levels， increased LH and FSH levels （P<0.01）， reduced levels of SOD and GSH in serum （P<0.01）， and increased MDA level （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the groups with drug intervention showed increased ovarian index （P<0.05， P<0.01）， increased serum E₂ level （P<0.05， P<0.01）， decreased FSH， AMH， and LH levels （P<0.05， P<0.01）， increased number of growing follicles in the ovary， potentiated SOD activity in serum， increased GSH content， decreased MDA content （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and up-regulated expression levels of Nrf2， HO-1， SOD2， and SOD1 proteins in ovarian tissues （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionNongsuo Dangguiwan can regulate serum hormone levels， increase the expression of Nrf2， HO-1， SOD2， and SOD1 in ovarian tissues， and improve ovarian antioxidant capacity to resist oxidative stress injury， thereby improving ovarian reserve function.
