OBJECTIVE:With the popularity of simulated barefoot running,minimalist shoes have become a new way of foot exercise.As an important muscle group of the foot,the maintenance of foot muscle morphology is important for the execution of foot functions.In this paper,by combing the literature about the effect of minimalist shoes on foot muscle morphology in recent years,we systematically evaluate the effect of minimalist shoes on foot muscle morphology compared with traditional running shoes. METHODS:The relevant articles published from 2012 to 2022 were searched in Chinese and English databases(PubMed,Web of Science,ProQuest,CNKI and WanFang databases)with"minimal shoes,minimal footwear,minimalist shoes,minimalist footwear,foot muscle,feet muscle"as Chinese and English keywords,respectively.Meta-analysis,sensitivity tests were performed on the included literature using Review Manager 5.4.1 and Stata 14 software,the Egger method was used to test for publication bias in the literature,and Meta-regression was used to identify the subgroups with heterogeneity. RESULTS:Compared with traditional running shoes,minimalist shoes increased muscle circumference of the abductor hallucis[standardized mean difference=2.034,95%confidence interval(1.192,2.877),Z=4.73,P＜0.001].And the results were not reversed after clipping and patching,with a more robust combined effect size(P＜0.05).For the toe short flexors,the total combined effect size did not show a difference between traditional running shoes and minimalist shoes[standardized mean difference=0.470,95%confidence interval(-0.45,1.39),Z=1.00,P=0.318]. CONCLUSION:Compared with traditional running shoes,minimalist shoes intervention can effectively improve muscle circumference of the abductor hallucis,but the promoting effect on the flexor digitorum brevis muscle is not obvious.Running in minimalist shoes has positive implications for the maintenance of the medial longitudinal arch,but it is necessary to enrich the research content of minimalist shoes on different foot muscles and different populations in order to further explore the mechanisms by which minimalist shoe interventions promote foot function.

Objective To evaluate the difference of foot-ankle function for subjects with different foot types from both dynamic and static aspects by means of sports biomechanics, so as to provide theoretical support and references for the study of foot-ankle movement. Methods According to the arch index, 65 subjects were divided into three groups: flat foot, low arch foot and normal foot. One-way ANOVA was used to analyze the difference of static and dynamic foot-ankle function indexes among the three groups. Results In terms of static foot-ankle function, the malleolar valgus flexibility (MVF) of normal foot and ankle was significantly higher than that of low arch foot and flat foot (P<0.05), while in terms of arch height flexibility (AHF), the effect of weight bearing on normal foot was smaller than that of flat foot (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in transverse arch flexibility (TAF) among the three groups. In terms of dynamic foot-ankle function, the force offset amplitude and time of normal foot at buffer stage were higher than those of the other two groups (P<0.05), and at transition stage, the transition time of normal foot was significantly lower than that of low arch foot and flat foot (P<0.05). At pedal-extension stage, the pedal-extension time and speed of normal foot were significantly higher than those of flat foot (P<0.05). Conclusions The posture maintenance ability and longitudinal arch shape maintenance ability of low arch foot and flat foot are worse than those of normal foot with the load increasing, and the arch rigidity and plantar elasticity of low arch foot and flat foot are worse than those of normal foot, and normal foot shows better load-bearing cushioning ability, elastic-to-rigid transition ability and pedal extension efficiency during walking. A systematic and comprehensive evaluation system is of great significance to the prediction of foot-ankle injury risk and the evaluation of sports ability.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of perforator flap eyelid reconstruction surgery for eyelid repair and reconstruction in patients with eyelid tumors after surgery.Methods Totally 80 patients(80 eyes)who re-ceived eyelid tumor surgery and planned to undergo the perforator flap eyelid reconstruction surgery in our hospital from January 2012 to December 2022 were included.All of them have early-stage and mid-stage eyelid tumors with no orbital or systemic metastasis.A perforator flap eyelid reconstruction surgery was conducted to treat the eyelid defects.The differ-ence in height and length of the palpebral fissure,aesthetic function scores and levels of depression and anxiety of patients before and after repair were compared;the clinical efficacy,adverse reactions and prognosis of patients were evaluated.Results Among the 80 eyes,there were 35 eyes with significant effect,35 eyes with effective impact,and 10 eyes with no effect,with a total effective rate of 87.5％.The height and length of palpebral fissure of patients after repair were(1.49±0.47)mm and(1.43±0.55)mm,respectively,which were significantly lower than those before repair[(2.55± 0.35)mm and(2.38±0.49)mm](both P＜0.01).The aesthetic function score before repair was 0.91±0.23,and that after repair was 1.87±0.19,with a significant difference(P＜0.01).The scores of the Self-rating Anxiety Scale and Self-rating Depression Scale after repair were 40.14±6.54 and 39.45±7.65,respectively,which were significantly lower than those before repair(59.56±8.23 and 57.93±8.19)(both P＜0.01).Among the 80 patients,the total incidence of compli-cations was 27.5％(22/80).All patients were followed up for 6-36 months,with an average follow-up time of(12.39± 6.17)months.No tumor recurrence was found during the follow-up.All composite flaps survived without infection,necro-sis or displacement.Conclusion The perforator flap eyelid reconstruction surgery has a good and safe therapeutic effect on repairing full-layer eyelid defects in patients who underwent eyelid tumor surgery.

Purpose: The human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is an established therapeutic target for various kinds of solid tumors. HER2 amplification occurs in approximately 1% to 6% of colorectal cancer. In this study, we aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab in combination with chemotherapy in HER2-positive metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Materials and Methods: An open-label, phase II trial (Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT03185988) was designed to evaluate the antitumor activity of trastuzumab and chemotherapy in HER2-positive digestive cancers excluding gastric cancer in 2017. Patients from this trial with HER2-positive, KRAS/BRAF wild-type, unresectable mCRC were analyzed in this manuscript. Eligible patients were treated with trastuzumab (8 mg/kg loading dose and then 6 mg/kg every 3 weeks) and irinotecan (120 mg/m2 days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks). The primary endpoint was the objective response rate. Results: Twenty-one HER2-positive mCRC patients were enrolled in this study. Seven patients (33.3%) achieved an objective res-ponse, and 11 patients (52.4%) had stable disease as their best response. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 4.3 months (95% confidence interval, 2.7 to 5.9). Four of the 21 patients (19.0%) had grade 3 adverse events, including leukopenia, neutropenia, urinary tract infection, and diarrhea. No treatment-related death was reported. Exploratory analyses revealed that high tumor tissue HER2 copy number was associated with better therapeutic response and PFS. Alterations in the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway, HER2 gene, phosphoinositide 3-kinase/AKT pathway, and cell cycle control genes were potential drivers of trastuzumab resistance in mCRC. Conclusion Trastuzumab combined with chemotherapy is a potentially effective and well-tolerated therapeutic regimen in mCRC with a high HER2 copy number.

Ossifying fibroma (OF) and fibrous dysplasia (FD) are two fibro-osseous lesions with overlapping clinicopathological features, making diagnosis challenging. In this study, we applied a whole-genome shallow sequencing approach to facilitate differential diagnosis via precise profiling of copy number alterations (CNAs) using minute amounts of DNA extracted from morphologically correlated microdissected tissue samples. Freshly frozen tissue specimens from OF (n = 29) and FD (n = 28) patients were obtained for analysis. Lesion fibrous tissues and surrounding normal tissues were obtained by laser capture microdissection (LCM), with ~30-50 cells (5 000-10 000 µm
