Geraniin, a polyphenol derived from the fruit peel of Nephelium lappaceum L., has been shown to possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties in the cardiovascular system. The present study explored whether geraniin could protect against an isoproterenol (ISO)-induced cardiac hypertrophy model. Mice in the ISO group received an intraperitoneal injection of ISO (5 mg/kg) once daily for 9 days, and the administration group were injected with ISO after 5 days of treatment with geraniin or spironolactone. Potential therapeutic effects and related mechanisms analysed by anatomical coefficients, histopathology, blood biochemical indices, reverse transcription-PCR and immunoblotting. Geraniin decreased the cardiac pathologic remodeling and myocardial fibrosis induced by ISO, as evidenced by the modifications to anatomical coefficients, as well as the reduction in collagen I/III á1mRNA and protein expression and cross-sectional area in hypertrophic cardiac tissue. In addition, geraniin treatment reduced ISO-induced increase in the mRNA and protein expression levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α, whereas ISO-induced IL-10 showed the opposite behaviour in hypertrophic cardiac tissue.Further analysis showed that geraniin partially reversed the ISO-induced increase in malondialdehyde and nitric oxide, and the ISO-induced decrease in glutathione, superoxide dismutase and glutathione. Furthermore, it suppressed the ISO-induced cellular apoptosis of hypertrophic cardiac tissue, as evidenced by the decrease in Bcell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2)-associated X/caspase-3/caspase-9 expression, increase in Bcl-2 expression, and decrease in TdT-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling-positive cells.These findings suggest that geraniin can attenuate ISO-induced cardiac hypertrophy by inhibiting inflammation, oxidative stress and cellular apoptosis.

Objective To explore planning effect of AI-HIP assisted surgical planning system in primary unilateral total hip arthroplasty(THA)and its influence on clinical outcomes.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 36 patients who underwent their first unilateral THA from March 2022 to November 2022 and continuously used AI-HIP system(AI-HIP group),including 16 males and 20 females,aged from 43 to 81 years old with an average of(62.2±10.9)years old.According to the matching principle,36 patients who were planned by the traditional template method at the same period were selected as the control group,including 16 males and 20 females,aged from 40 to 80 years old with an average of(60.9±12.1)years old.The accuracy between two groups of prostheses were compared,as well as the combined eccentricity difference between preoperative planning and postoperative practice,lower limb length difference,osteotomy height from the upper edge of the lesser trochanter and top shoulder distance to evaluate planning effect.Harris score and visual analogue scale(VAS)were used to evaluate clinical efficacy.Results Both groups were followed up for 12 to 18 months with an average of(14.5±2.1)months.The complete accuracy and approximate accuracy of acetabular cup and femoral stalk prosthesis in AI-HIP group were 72.2％,100％,58.3％,88.9％,respectively,which were better than 44.4％,83.3％,33.3％,66.7％in control group(P＜0.05).There was no statistical significance in planning of femoral head prosthesis size(P＞0.05).The actual combined eccentricity difference and combined eccentricity difference(practical-planning)in Al-HIP group were 1.0(0.2,2.4)mm and 1.1(-2.1,3.2)mm,respectively;which were better than 3.0(1.4,4.9)mm and 3.5(-1.6,6.5)mm in control group(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference between two groups in actual osteotomy height of the upper margin of the lesser trochanter(P＞0.05).In AI-HIP group,the actual difference of lower extremity length after surgery,the difference of lower extremity length(practical-planning),osteotomy height from the upper margin of lesser trochanter(practical-planning),actual topshoulder distance after surgery,and topshoulder distance(practical-planning)were 1.5(0.2,2.8),1.1(-0.3,2.2),2.1(-2.3,4.1),(15.3±4.1),2.2(-4.8,0.3)mm,respectively;which were better than control group of 2.6(1.3,4.1),2.5(0.3,3.8),5.8(-2.4,7.7),(13.0±4.3),-5.7(-9.4,-2.2)mm(P＜0.05).At final follow-up,there were no significant differences in Harris scores of pain,function,deformity,total scores and VAS between two groups(P＞0.05).The range of motion score was 4.8±0.6 in AI-HIP group,which was higher than that in control group(4.4±0.8)(P＜0.05).Conclusion Compared with traditional template planning,AI-HIP assisted surgical planning system has good accuracy in predicting the prosthetic size of the acetabular cup and femoral stalk,restor-ing joint eccentricity,planning lower limb length,osteotomy height and top shoulder distance on the first unilateral THA,and the clinical follow-up effect is satisfactory.

Objective To analyze the effects of different anastomotic methods on flap survival rate and wound healing factors of patients with transplantation of superficial branch perforator flap of superficial circumflex iliac artery(SCIA).Methods A total of 100 patients with skin defects of limbs admitted to our hospital from January 2019 to August 2022 were selected and divided into end-to-end anastomosis group(56 cases)and end-to-side anastomosis group(44 cases)according to different anastomosis methods.In the end-to-end anastomosis group,the end of the flap artery was anastomosed with the end of the aortic branch in the affected area.In the end-to-side anastomosis group,the end of recipient flap artery was anastomosed with the side of aorta.Patients in both groups were followed up for 6 to 12 months,the arterial caliber,lateral caliber and anastomosis time were compared between the two groups.The survival of the flap,the occurrence of venous crisis,the shape and function of the flap and donor area were observed.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the arterial caliber or lateral caliber of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).The anastomosis time of patients in the end-to-end anastomosis group was significantly shorter than that in the end-to-side anastomosis group(P<0.05).All 56 cases in the end-to-end anastomosis group survived.In the end-to-side anastomosis group,venous crisis occurred in 4 cases,with venous thrombosis,2 cases survived after re-anastomosis,2 cases were changed to abdominal pedicled flap when venous crisis occurred again,the appearance and function of the flap and donor area were satisfactory 6 months to 1 year after surgery(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in color,thickness,vascular distribution or flexibility of donor area of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in pain,appearance,vitality and recreation of recipient area of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The application of different arterial anastomosis methods in the transplantation of superficial branch perforator flap of SCIA for the treatment of skin and soft tissue defects of limbs is safe and reliable,the postoperative survival of the flap is good,the healing is not affected by the anastomosis method,and the appearance of the affected area is satisfactory,which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Hip fracture in the elderly is characterized by high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality and has been recognized as a public health issue threatening their health. Surgery is the preferred choice for the treatment of elderly patients with hip fracture. However, lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) has an extremely high incidence rate during the perioperative period, and may significantly increase the risk of patients′ death once it progresses to pulmonary embolism. In response to this issue, the clinical guidelines and expert consensuses all emphasize active application of comprehensive preventive measures, including basic prevention, physical prevention, and pharmacological prevention. In this prevention system, basic prevention is the basis of physical and pharmacological prevention. However,there is a lack of unified and definite recommendations for basic preventive measures in clinical practice. To this end, the Orthopedic Nursing Professional Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association and Nursing Department of the Orthopedic Branch of the China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care organized relevant nursing experts to formulate Expert consensus on perioperative basic prevention for lower extremity deep venous thrombosis in elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2024) . A total of 10 recommendations were proposed, aiming to standardize the basic preventive measures for lower extremity DVT in elderly patients with hip fractures during the perioperative period and promote their subsequent rehabilitation.

Purpose::Internal iliac artery ligation (IIAL) has been used as a damage control procedure to treat hemodynamically unstable pelvic fracture for many years. However, there is ongoing debate regarding the effectiveness and safety of this hemostatic method. Therefore, we performed a systematic literature review to assess the efficacy and safety of IIAL for pelvic fracture hemostasis.Methods::Three major databases, PubMed, Embase, and Google Scholar, were searched to screen eligible original studies published in English journals. Two reviewers independently read the titles, abstracts, and full texts of all literature. Articles were included if they reported the use and effects of IIAL.Results::A total of 171 articles were initially identified, with 22 fully meeting the inclusion criteria. Among the analyzed cases, up to 66.7% of patients had associated abdominal and pelvic organ injuries, with the urethra being the most frequently injured organ, followed by the bowel. The outcomes of IIAL for achieving hemostasis in pelvic fractures were found to be satisfactory, with an effective rate of 80%. Hemorrhagic shock was the leading cause of death, followed by craniocerebral injury. Notably, no reports of ischemic complications involving the pelvic organs due to IIAL were found.Conclusion::IIAL has a good effect in treating hemodynamically unstable pelvic fracture without the risk of pelvic organ ischemia. This procedure should be considered a priority for hemodynamically unstable pelvic fracture patients with abdominal organ injuries.
