Objective:
This study aims to evaluate the clinical benefits of the integrated optical and magnetic surgical navigation system in assisting transforaminal endoscopic lumbar discectomy (TELD) for the treatment of lumbar disc herniation (LDH).
Methods:
A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent TELD for LDH at Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University from November 2022 to December 2023. Patients treated with the integrated optical and magnetic surgical navigation system were defined as the navigation-guided TELD (Ng-TELD) group (30 cases), while those treated with the conventional x-ray fluoroscopy method were defined as the control group (31 cases). Record and compare baseline characteristics, surgical parameters, efficacy indicators, and adverse events between the 2 patient groups.
Results:
The average follow-up duration for the 61 patients was 11.8 months. Postoperatively, both groups exhibited significant relief from back and leg pain, which continued to improve over time. At the final follow-up, patients’ lumbar function and quality of life had significantly improved compared to preoperative levels (p < 0.05). The Ng-TELD group had significantly shorter total operation time (58.43 ± 12.37 minutes vs. 83.23 ± 25.90 minutes), catheter placement time (5.83 ± 1.09 minutes vs. 15.94 ± 3.00 minutes), decompression time (47.17 ± 11.98 minutes vs. 67.29 ± 24.23 minutes), and fewer intraoperative fluoroscopies (3.20 ± 1.45 vs. 16.58 ± 4.25) compared to the control group (p < 0.05). There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of efficacy evaluation indicators and hospital stay. At the final follow-up, the excellent and good rate of surgical outcomes assessed by the MacNab criteria was 98.4%, and the overall adverse event rate was 8.2%, with no statistically significant differences between the groups (p > 0.05).
Conclusion
This study demonstrates that the integrated optical and magnetic surgical navigation system can reduce the complexity of TELD, shorten operation time, and minimize radiation exposure for the surgeon, highlighting its promising clinical potential.

Aim To explore the effect and mechanism of the artesunate(ART)on hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The cell lines MHCC-97H and HCC-LM3 were used to be detected.MTT and clone formation were used to determine the cell proliferation;Wound healing was used to detect the cell migration;Transwell was used to test the cell invasion.Flow-cy-tometry was used to detect cell apoptosis and cell cy-cle.RNA-seq and qRT-PCR was used to detect the genes expression.Results The proliferation,migra-tion and invasion of treated cells were obviously inhibi-ted(P<0.01).Moreover,the apoptosis rate in-creased significantly,so did the proportion of G2/M cells.Transcriptomic analysis identified GADD45A as a potential target of ART through RNA-sequencing da-ta,and suggested that ART might induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest through regulating the expression of GADD45A.In addition,the results of mechanism studies and signaling analysis suggested that GADD45A had interaction with its upstream gene NACC1(nucle-us accumbens associated 1).Moreover,after ART treatment,the expressions of GADD45A and NACC1 were changed significantly.Conclusion ART may be a potential drug to resist HCC by affecting the expres-sion of GADD45A and its upstream gene NACC1,which provides a new drug,a new direction and a new method for the clinical treatment of HCC.

Objective To explore the safety and efficacy of radiofrequency catheter ablation(RCFA)in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation(AF)/atrial flutter(AFL)and heart failure(HF)with left ventricular ejection fraction≤35%.Methods This study is a retrospective study.Patients with persistent AF/AFL and HF with left ventricular ejection fraction≤ 35%admitted to Beijing Anzhen Hospital from January 2018 to March 2024 were enrolled.The perioperative characteristics and complications changes in echocardiographic parameters,and follow-up outcomes were analyzed.Results A total of 45 patients were enrolled with a mean age of(56±13)years and a mean LVEF of(28±4)%.The ablation strategy was circumferential pulmonary vein isolation and empirical linear ablation.The operation time and fluoroscopy time were 120(120,163)min and 5(4,10)min respectively.The patients mainly underwent linear ablation including circumferential pulmonary vein isolation(38,84.4%),cavotricuspid isthmus(37,82.2%),roofline(34,75.6%),mitral isthmus(34,75.6%).21(46.7%)patients underwent ehtanol infusion into the vein of Marshall.24(53.3%)patients underwent electrocardioversion.All patients restored sinus rhythm immediately after RFCA and had no perioperative complications.After a median follow-up of 22.9(7.8,31.0)months,2 patients died of cardiovascular disease,1 patient underwent heart transplantation,14(33.3%)patients were readmitted for cardiovascular disease,and 10 patients(23.8%)had recurrence of AF.The mean LVEF of the 28 patients who obtained LVEF at the last follow-up increased from(28±4)%to(51±14)%,and the average improvement of LVEF was(23±13)%(P<0.0001).15 of these patients had complete recovery of left ventricular systolic function(LVEF≥ 50%).Conclusions RFCA is safe and effective for patients with persistent AF/AFL and HF with LVEF ≤ 35%,and can improve patient's cardiac function and significantly increase LVEF.

AIM To prepare curcumin-loaded poly (D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) acid (PLGA) nanoparticles,and to investigate their effects on promoting wound healing.METHODS Phacoemulsification method was adopted in the preparation of PLGA nanoparticles.With lactic acid-glycolic acid ratio,surfactant type and concentration and PLGA consumption as influencing factors,encapsulation efficiency,drug loading,particle size and PDI as evaluation indices,the preparation process was optimized by single factor test.The morphology was observed under transmission electron microscopy,after which the in vitro drug release was determined by dialysis bag method,the optical properties were investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy,and the effects on promoting wound healing of mouse skin.RESULTS The optimal conditions were determined to be 50∶50 for lactic acid-glycolic acid ratio,60 mg for PLGA consumption,and 3% for surfactant (PVA) concentration.The obtained PLGA nanoparticles with spherical core-shell structure demonstrated the average particle size,PDI,Zeta potential and accumulative release rate within 168 h of (149.70±7.27) nm,0.28±0.04 and (-10.18±1.00) mV and (39.21±1.44)%,respectively,which displayed typical aggregation-induced emission property,excitation wavelength-dependent property and optical stability.Compared with the PBS group,PBS+illumination group,curcumin+illumination group and preparation group,the preparation+illumination group exhibited increased wound healing rate (P<0.05,P<0.01) and reduced wound epidermal thickness (P<0.05,P<0.01).CONCLUSION Curcumin-loaded PLGA nanoparticles show good optical properties,which can promote the wound healing of mouse skin when combined with photodynamic therapy.
