The S100 protein family is a key component of damage-associated molecular patterns(DAMP), which play a vital role in regulating inflammation in the body's innate immune response. S100A8/S100A9 proteins play a wide range of antibacterial and anti-infective functions in many diseases, and promote the occurrence and development of the body's immune and inflammatory responses. In various retinal degenerative diseases, S100A8/S100A9 proteins are significantly upregulated at the transcription and translation stages, promoting the activation of inflammatory factors in ocular tissues, the activation and recruitment of immune cells such as macrophages and neutrophils, and the occurrence and development of ocular inflammation. This review aimsat explaining the biological functions of S100A8/S100A9 proteins and their roles and possible mechanisms in retinal degenerative diseases such as diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration and ischemic retinopathy.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of herba artemisiae scopariae extract on multidrug resistance protein 3(MDR3)gene mutation-induced neonatal parenteral nutrition-associated cholestasis(PNAC)and its possible mechanism.Methods ①Human primary hepatocytes were treated with cell culture in vitro,CRISPR/Cas9 lentivirus infection and MDR3 mutant gene lead-in.The levels of hepatic and biliary biochemical indexes[alanine transaminase(ALT),aspartate transaminase(AST),total bilirubin(TBil),direct bilirubin(DBil),indirect bilirubin(IBil),total bile acid(TBA)]in the supernatant of hepatocytes before and after 16,32,48 hours were compared to determine the time required for fatty acid induction of PNAC hepatocyte model with MDR3 gene mutation.② Human primary hepatocytes were divided into blank control group,MDR3 gene wild type group,MDR3 gene mutation group,and herba artemisiae scopariae extract intervention group according to random number table method.The blank control group was treated with culture medium only,the MDR3 gene wild type group was infected with lentivirus and mixed with wild type MDR3 gene and culture medium,the MDR3 gene mutation group was infected with lentivirus and cultured in culture medium with the mutant genes lead-in of LV-MDR3KI(c.485T>A,c.2793insA,c.1031G>A,c.3347G>A)mutation,while the MDR3 mutant gene was lead-in by lentivirus infection and cultured in culture medium,and then pretreated with 100 g/L herba artemisiae scopariae extract in the herba artemisiae scopariae extract intervention group,then the four groups of hepatocytes were induced with 1%fat emulsion,and the treatment time was the time needed to construct the PNAC hepatocytes model with MDR3 gene mutation.The levels of ALT,AST,TBil,DBil,IBil and TBA in the supernatant of hepatocytes were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The mRNA expression abundance of adenosine triphosphate binding cassette proteins(ABCB4,ABCB11,ABCC2,ABCC3,ABCC4)encoding MDR3,bile salt export pump(BSEP),multidrug resistance associated protein(MRP)2-4,and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)genes were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR).Results Compared to the blank control group and MDR3 gene wild type group,there was no significant difference in the levels of ALT,AST,TBil,DBil,IBil,TBA in the supernatant of MDR3 gene mutant group before and 16 hours after induction with 1%fat emulsion,however after treated with 1%fat emulsion for 32 hours and 48 hours,the levels of ALT,AST,TBil,DBil,IBil,TBA in the supernatant of MDR3 mutant hepatocytes were significantly increased(P<0.05),consequently the time required for fatty acid induction of PNAC hepatocyte model was 32 hours.At 32 hours after treatment with fat emulsion,the levels of ALT,AST,TBil,DBil,TBA in the supernatant of hepatocytes in the herba artemisiae scopariae extract intervention group were significantly decreased[ALT(ng/L):148.3±2.3 vs.164.9±7.0,AST(ng/L):2767.4±78.8 vs.3239.4±107.1,TBil(μmol/L):7.6±0.2 vs.13.6±0.3,DBil(μmol/L):1.8±0.1 vs.5.7±0.2,TBA(μmol/L):3.4±0.2 vs.6.7±0.1,all P<0.05].The ABCB4,ABCC2,ABCC3,ABCC4 mRNA expression of MDR3,MRP2,MRP3,MRP4 in the blank control group,MDR3 wild type group,MDR3 gene mutation group and the herba artemisiae scopariae extract intervention group had no significant difference.The expression of TNF gene mRNA was highly expressed in MDR3 gene mutation group(2-??Ct:1.258±0.200 vs.1.001±0.052),and was low expressed in the herba artemisiae scopariae extract intervention group(2-??Ct:0.387±0.247 vs.1.258±0.200),and there was a significant difference between the two groups(both P<0.05).Compared to the MDR3 gene mutation group,the ABCB11 gene encoding BSEP mRNA expression in the herba artemisiae scopariae extract intervention group was significantly increased(2-??Ct:2.955±0.479 vs.1.333±0.529,P<0.05).Conclusion The herba artemisiae scopariae extract has a protective effect on PNAC induced by MDR3 gene mutation,which may be related to antagonizing inflammatory reaction,decreasing the expression of TNF mRNA and improving the expression of ABCB11 gene encoding BSEP.

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:To summarize and evaluate the target and dose design of 125I seed brachytherapy treatment plan of pediatric borderline tumor in head neck region. Methods:Eleven patients underwent definitive 125I brachytherapy or combined with surgery in Peking University Hospital of Stomatology from January 2010 to December 2018 were retrospective analyzed. The target region was set by extending the tumor gross region by 0.5 to 1.0 cm. The prescription dose and activity ranged from 80 to 120 Gy and 18.5 MBq, respectively. The treatments were performed according to the plan under general anesthesia. Response and toxic reaction were recorded during follow-up. The preoperative and postoperative dosimetric results were compared; and the local control rate, objective response rate, complete response rate and acute toxic reaction rate were calculated. Results:There was no statistically significant difference between preoperative and postoperative dosimetric results ( P>0.05). The follow-up time ranged from 33 to 131 months, with a median of 48 months. The local control rate, objective response rate, complete response rate and acute toxic reaction rate were 100%, 100%, 71.4% and 81.8%, respectively. Conclusions:Under well-designed target and dose, 125I brachytherapy for treatment of pediatric borderline tumor in head neck region would bring ideal therapeutic and toxic outcomes, and could be regarded as a feasible therapy.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of 125I interstitial brachytherapy in the treatment of local advanced parotid adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC), and to analyze prognostic factors affecting treatment outcome, in order to provide references for the treatment of local advanced parotid adenoid cystic carcinoma. Methods:Patients with histology-confirmed ACC of the parotid who received 125I interstitial brachytherapy in Peking University Hospital of Stomatology between Aug 2007 and Jan 2018 were included.Prognostic factors affecting overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and local control rate (LCR) were analyzed.Meanwhile, distant metastases as well as acute and long-term radiological toxicities were described. Results:A total of 16 patients (11 females, mean age 55.4 years) of stage cT 4bN 0M 0 who received definitive 125I interstitial brachytherapy were included.The median follow-up period was 41.5 months (8-104 months), and the 1-, 3- and 5-year OS were 86.7%, 72% and 54%, respectively.Five patients suffered from local recurrence, the 1-, 3- and 5-year LCR were 93.7%, 80% and 68.7%, respectively, and the 1-, 3- and 5-year PFS were 74%, 53%, and 18.9%, respectively.Nine cases developed distant metastases.Among them, intracranial and pulmonary metastases took place the most frequently and six patients who had skull base invasion developed multi-organ metastases.An encased carotid artery was an independent prognostic factor for distant metastases (HR=12, P=0.045). Severe radiological toxicities were observed in eight patients (8/16, 50%), including radio-dermatitis, hearing loss, progressive trismus, and eye toxicities. Conclusions:The 5-year LCR in patients treated with definitive 125I interstitial brachytherapy for local advanced ACC of the parotid was 68.7%, and skull base invasion and an encased carotid artery were independent adverse prognostic factors of bad prognosis and multi-organ metastases.

Objective:To analyze the target design and dosimetric parameters of patients with recurrent adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) in the parotid gland who were treated with 125I interstitial brachytherapy alone. Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted for 25 patients with recurrent adenoid cystic carcinoma in parotid gland who were histopathologically diagnosed between January 2015 and October 2019. These patients were treated with 125I interstitial brachytherapy alone, with prescribed doses of 100-120 Gy. The target volume was designed according to the pathological characteristics of ACC and recurrence sites. The pre- and post-operation dosimetric parameters (i.e., local control rates) were calculated using the treatment planning system. Results:In this study, the local recurrence sites included the superficial lobe (10/25) and deep lobe (7/25) of the parotid gland primarily and the skull base region (four patients) and mastoid posterior region (four patients) secondarily. The number of 125I seeds ranged from 16 to 111, with a median number of 59. The activity of radioactive particles was 18.5-25.9 MBq. The 3- and 5-year local control rates were 81.5% and 61.5%, respectively. No significant differences were found between pre- and post-operative dosimetric parameters such as D90, V100, and V150. There was no significant difference in local control rates among the four different recurrence sites. Conclusions:125I interstitial brachytherapy is proven to be an effective approach in the treatment of recurrent adenoid cystic carcinoma in the parotid gland. Satisfying local control rates can be achieved through target delineation performed according to recurrence sites and perineural invasion characteristics of ACC.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and accuracy of hammering reverse guide wire technique for safe placement of anterior column retrograde intramedullary screw in pelvic and acetabular surgery.Methods From September 2015 to March 2018,46 patients with pelvic or/and acetabular fracture involving the anterior column were treated with hammering reverse guide wire technique for safe placement of anterior column retrograde intramedullary screw at Department of Orthopaedics,Lishui Municipal Central Hospital.They were 28 men and 18 women,aged from 21 to 85 years (mean,55.6 years).There were 34 pelvic ring fractures,9 acetabular fractures and 3 combined pelvic ring and acetabular fractures.After the anterior lateral spine of pubic tuberosity was drilled by a guide pin and drill bit as the entry point,a reverse guide wire was knocked into the bone lightly by a hammer.For each retrograde intramedullary screwing into the acetabular anterior column,we recorded operation time,fluoroscopic frequency,and attempts to establish an acceptable screw pathway by the guide pin.The accuracy of screwing and the quality of fracture reduction were evaluated by imaging examination.For each patient,we recorded fracture union time and complications.Functional recovery of the pelvis and acetabulum was assessed by postoperative physical examination at the last follow-ups.Results The operation time of retrograde intramedullary screwing for the 46 patients averaged 28.9 minutes (from 16 to 55 minutes);the fluoroscopy frequency averaged 16.3 times (from 9 to 35 times);an acceptable screw pathway was established by the first attempt in 43 of the 46 patients (93.5％) and re-established after adjustment of the guide pin in the other 3.Forty patients were followed up for an average of 15.2 months(from 6 to 36 months).Postoperative CT scan and three-dimensional reconstruction showed that all the screws had been placed safely and accurately in the acetabular anterior column.Implant loosening and fracture displacement occurred in one case and lower limb thrombosis in another.No nail breakage,fracture nonunion,incision necrosis or infection,neurovascular injury or femoral head necrosis was observed.All fractures united after an average of 14.7 weeks (from 12 to 18 weeks).According to the Majeed scoring at the last follow-ups,the pelvic and acetabular function was evaluated as excellent in 29 cases,as good in 9,and as fair in 2,giving an excellent and good rate of 95.0％.Conclusion Hammering reverse guide wire technique is an effective method for safe placement of anterior column retrograde intramedullary screw in pelvic and acetabular surgery,because it can increase accuracy of screwing and reduce intraoperative radiation,operation time and incidence of complications though it is simple.

Objective: To investigate the primary clinical efficacy of Collinear clamp assisted reduction and proximal femoral nail antirotation(PFNA) in the treatment of medial-lateral irreducible intertrochanteric fractures. Methods: From January 2012 to December 2016, a total of 21 cases of medial-lateral irreducible intertrochanteric fractures of femur who were treated with Collinear clamp assisted reduction and PFNA in Lishui Hospital of Zhejiang University were selected.There were 12 males and 9 females, with a mean age of 76.7 years(ranged 51 to 91). According to Arbeitsge-meinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen/The Association for the Study of Internal Fixation(AO/ASIF) classification, there were 6 cases of type 31-A1 fractures, 11 cases of type 31-A2 fractures, 4 cases of type 31-A3 fractures.All patients were followed and the clinical results and functional rehabilitation were evaluated during perioperative period and after short term followed-up. Results: The mean operation time was 61.7min(ranged 40-110min). The mean intraoperative blood loss was 131.7mL(ranged 45-450mL). The average hospitalization days was 13.6d(ranged 7-29d). There were no severe complications and exacerbation of coexisting medical disease.All patients were followed up for 10 to 18 months (average 13.3 months) after treatment.The fracture union was obtained in all patients at the final follow-up.No poor healing, failure of internal fixation, cut-out of proximal screws, varus deformity, re-fractures occurred after operation.The clinical results were evaluated according to Harris hip score, 6 cases achieved excellent results, 13 cases were good, 2 cases were fair at last follow-up.The excellent and good rate of the hip joint function was 90.5%. Conclusion Surgical treatment of medial-lateral irreducible intertrochanteric fractures with Collinear clamp assisted reduction and PFNA can result in excellent reduction and function.This technique has less injury and faster recovery.However, the long-term effect needs to evaluate by follow-up.
