BACKGROUND:The use of 3D-printed patient-specific instruments in opening wedge high tibial osteotomy has advantages such as shorter operative time,fewer fluoroscopic exposures,and higher correction accuracy.However,previous studies have reported issues such as significant damage to surrounding soft tissues and improper fixation of the plates. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical efficacy of using 3D-printed patient-specific instruments combined with customized locking plate in opening wedge high tibial osteotomy for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. METHODS:A total of 20 patients diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis were divided into the 3D group(n=10)and the conventional group(n=10)according to surgical methods.The 3D group underwent opening wedge high tibial osteotomy using 3D-printed patient-specific instruments combined with customized locking plate,while the conventional group underwent opening wedge high tibial osteotomy using conventional methods.The operative time,fluoroscopic exposures,incision length,pre-and postoperative hip-knee-ankle angle,medial proximal tibial angle,posterior tibial slope,the difference between the planned and actual correction angle,preoperative and 1,3,6 months postoperative knee range of motion and Lysholm score,and incidence of complications were analyzed and compared between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The operative time and fluoroscopic exposures were significantly shorter in the 3D group compared to the conventional group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.001).(2)Both groups showed a significant improvement in postoperative hip-knee-ankle angle and medial proximal tibial angle compared to preoperative values,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.001),while there was no significant change in posterior tibial slope.In the 3D group,the postoperative hip-knee-ankle angle,medial proximal tibial angle,and posterior tibial slope differed from their respective preoperative planned values by(-0.22±0.72)°,(-0.20±0.73)°,and(0.23±0.37)°,but the differences were not statistically significant.The difference between the planned and actual correction angle of 3D group was significantly smaller than that of conventional group(P<0.05).(3)Both groups showed a gradual increase in knee range of motion and Lysholm scores after surgery(P<0.001).Compared to the conventional group,the 3D group had superior knee range of motion at 1 and 3 months postoperatively,as well as a higher Lysholm score at 1 month postoperatively,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in Lysholm score at 3 months and knee range of motion and Lysholm score at 6 months between the two groups(P>0.05).(4)Complications occurred in neither groups.(5)The above results indicate that both 3D-printed patient-specific instruments combined with customized locking plate and conventional methods have good clinical efficacy.However,the former has a shorter operative time,fewer fluoroscopic exposures,and faster postoperative recovery of knee joint function.Additionally,3D-printed patient-specific instruments can achieve preoperative planning accurately.

ObjectiveTo explore the quantity-quality transfer process of medicinal materials, decoction pieces and standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha(Haliotis discus hannai) by analyzing the physical phase and compositional changes, so as to provide references for the effective control of its quality. MethodsA total of 20 batches of Haliotidis Concha(H. discus hannai) from different habitats were collected and prepared into corresponding calcined products and standard decoction, and the content of CaCO3 of the three samples were determined and the extract yield and transfer rate of CaCO3 were calculated. The changes in elemental composition and their relative contents were investigated by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry(XRF), X-ray diffraction(XRD) was used to study the changes in the phase compositions of the three samples and to establish their respective XRD specific chromatogram. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry(FTIR) was used to study the changes in the chemical composition and content changes of the three samples and to establish their respective FTIR specific chromatogram, while combining hierarchical cluster analysis(HCA), principal component analysis(PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA) to find the common and differential characteristics, in order to explore the quantity-quality transfer relationship in the preparation process of standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha(H. discus hannai). ResultsThe CaCO3 contents of the 20 batches of medicinal materials, decoction pieces and standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha(H. discus hannai) were 93.87%-98.95%, 96.02%-99.97% and 38.29%-51.96%, respectively, and the extract yield of standard decoction was 1.71%-2.37%, and the CaCO3 transfer rate of decoction pieces-standard decoction was 0.68%-1.27%. XRF results showed that the elemental species and their relative contents contained in Haliotidis Concha and its calcined products had a high degree of similarity, and although there was no obvious difference in the elemental species contained in decoction pieces and standard decoction, the difference in the relative contents was obvious, which was mainly reflected in the decrease of the relative content of element Ca and the increase of the relative content of element Na. XRD results showed that Haliotidis Concha mainly contained CaCO3 of aragonite and calcite, while calcined Haliotidis Concha only contained CaCO3 of calcite, and standard decoction mainly contained CaCO3 of calcite and Na2CO3 of natrite. FTIR results showed that there were internal vibrations of O-H, C-H, C=O, HCO3- and CO32- groups in Haliotidis Concha, while O-H, HCO3- and CO32- groups existed in the calcined products and standard decoction. ConclusionThe changes of Haliotidis Concha and calcined Haliotidis Concha are mainly the increase of CaCO3 content, the transformation of CaCO3 aragonite crystal form to calcite crystal form and the absence of organic components after calcination, and the changes of calcined products and standard decoction are mainly the decrease of CaCO3 content and the increase of Na2CO3 relative content. The method established in the study is applicable to the quality control of the shellfish medicines-decoction pieces- standard decoction, which provides a new idea for the study of quality control of dispensing granules of shellfish medicines.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the effect mechanism of electroacupuncture (EA) for ameliorating diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) based on the analysis of gut microbiota and metabolomics.
METHODS:
Thirty SPF-grade male SD rats were randomly divided into a normal group, a model group, and an EA group, with 10 rats in each one. Except in the normal group, the intraperitoneally injection with streptozotocin was used to induce diabetes mellitus model in the rest groups. In the EA group, acupuncture was delivered at bilateral "Zusanli" (ST36), "Sanyinjiao" (SP6), "Pishu" (BL20) and "Shenshu" (BL23), and electric stimulation was attached to "Zusanli" (ST36)-"Sanyinjiao" (SP6) and "Pishu" (BL20)-"Shenshu" (BL23), on the same side, with continuous wave and a frequency of 2 Hz, for 10 min in each intervention. The intervention measure of each group was delivered once every 2 days, 3 times a week, for 8 consecutive weeks. Body weight, random blood glucose (RBG), thermal withdrawal latency (TWL), and mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) before intervention, and in 4 and 8 weeks of intervention, separately, as well as sensory nerve conduction velocity (SCV) and motor nerve conduction velocity (MCV) of the sciatic nerve after intervention were measured. Metagenomic sequencing (MS) was used to analyze gut microbiota and screen for differential species. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was employed to detect the differential metabolites in plasma, and the metabolic pathway enrichment analysis was performed on the differential metabolites. Spearman correlation analysis was adopted to assess the relationship between gut microbiota and metabolomics.
RESULTS:
After 4 and 8 weeks of intervention, when compared with the model group, the EA group showed the increase in body weight, TWL, MWT (P<0.01), and the decrease in RBG (P<0.01). Compared with the normal group, SCV and MCV, as well as Chao1 index were dropped in the model group (P<0.01), and those were elevated in the EA group when compared with those in the model group (P<0.01). The dominant bacterial phyla of each group were Firmicutes (F) and Bacteroidota (B), the ratio of them (F/B) in the model group was lower than that of the normal group (P<0.05), and F/B in the EA group was higher when compared with that in the model group (P<0.05). In comparison with the normal group, the relative abundance increased in Prevotella, Segatella, Prevotella-hominis and Segatella-copri (P<0.05); and it decreased in Ligilactobacillus, Eubacterium, Pseudoflavonifractor, Ligilactobacillus-murinus (P<0.05) in the model group. Compared with the model group, the relevant abundance of the above mentioned gut bacteria was all ameliorated in the EA group (P<0.05, P<0.01). Among the three groups, 120 differential metabolites were identified and enriched in 28 key metabolic pathways, such as glycerophospholipid and linoleic acid, of which, glycerophospholipid was the most significantly affected pathway in EA intervention. Spearman correlation analysis showed that 6 phosphatidylcholine metabolites were significantly positively correlated with Pseudoflavonifractor and were negatively with Prevotella, Segatella, Prevotella-hominis, Segatella-copri; 5 phosphatidylethanolamine metabolites were significantly negatively correlated with Pseudoflavonifractor and positively correlated with Prevotella, Segatella, Prevotella-hominis, Segatella-copri.
CONCLUSION
EA may regulate metabolic pathways such as glycerophospholipid, modulate specific gut microbiota such as Pseudoflavonifractor, Prevotella, and Segatella, and the co-expressed differential metabolites like phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine, thereby reducing blood glucose and protecting nerve function, so as to relieve the symptoms of DPN of rats.

OBJECTIVES:
To explore the molecular mechanism by which lncRNA SNHG15 regulates proliferation, invasion and migration of lung adenocarcinoma cells.
METHODS:
The lncRNA microarray chip dataset GSE196584 and LncBase were used to predict the lncRNAs that interact with miR-30b-3p, and their association with patient prognosis were investigated using online databases, after which lncRNA nucleolar RNA host gene 15 (SNHG15) was selected for further analysis. The subcellular localization of lncRNA SNHG15 and its expression levels in normal human lung epithelial cells and lung adenocarcinoma cell lines were detected using fluorescence in situ hybridization and qRT-PCR. In cultured A549 cells, the changes in cell proliferation, migration, and invasion following transfection with a SNHG15 knockdown plasmid (sh-SNHG15), a miR-30b-3p inhibitor, or their co-transfection were assessed with EdU, wound healing, and Transwell assays. Bioinformatics analyses were used to predict the regulatory relationship between lncRNA SNHG15 and COX6B1, and the results were verified using Western blotting and rescue experiments in A549 cells transfected with sh-SNHG15, a COX6B1-overexpressing plasmid, or both.
RESULTS:
LncRNA SNHG15 was shown to target miR-30b-3p, and the former was highly expressed in lung adenocarcinoma, and associated with a poor patient prognosis. LncRNA SNHG15 was localized in the cytoplasm and expressed at higher levels in A549 and NCI-H1299 cells than in BEAS-2B cells. In A549 cells, lncRNA SNHG15 knockdown significantly inhibited cell migration, invasion and proliferation, and these changes were reversed by miR-30b-3p inhibitor. A regulatory relationship was found between lncRNA SNHG15 and COX6B1, and their expression levels were positively correlated (r=0.128, P=0.003). MiR-30b-3p knockdown obviously decreased COX6B1 expression in A549 cells, and COX6B1 overexpression rescued the cells from the inhibitory effects of lncRNA-SNHG15 knockdown.
CONCLUSIONS
LncRNA SNHG15 may compete with COX6B1 to bind miR-30b-3p through a ceRNA mechanism to affect proliferation, migration, and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells.

OBJECTIVES:
To elucidate the anti-aging effect of β-sitosterol (BS), an important component in the fruits of Alpinia oxyphylla Miq., in C. elegans and its regulatory effect on ETS-5 gene to modulate ferroptosis.
METHODS:
C. elegans treated with 10 µg/mL BS were monitored for survival time and changes in body length, motility, and reproductive function. The effect of ETS-5 gene knockdown on survival time of C. elegans was observed, and the changes in fat accumulation and lipid redox homeostasis in the transfected C. elegans were assessed using Oil Red O staining and by detecting MDA levels and the GSH/GSSG ratio. The mRNA expression levels of ferroptosis-related genes (FTN-1, GPX-1 and AAT-9) were detected using qPCR. The effects of BS treatment and ETS-5 knockdown on AAT-9 enzyme activity in C. elegans were examined. The effect of BS on nuclear localization of FEV (the human homolog of ETS-5) was validated in cultured human umbilical venous endothelial cells (HUVECs).
RESULTS:
Both BS treatment and ETS-5 knockdown significantly prolonged the lifespan, promoted lipid accumulation and reduced lipid peroxidation in C. elegans. ETS-5 knockdown resulted in upregulated expressions of the ferroptosis repressors GPX-1, AAT-9 and FTN-1 and increased the GSH/GSSG ratio in C. elegans.
CONCLUSIONS
BS inhibits ferroptosis in C. elegans by suppressing the expression of ETS-5 transcription factor and hence the activity of AAT-9 enzyme, a key gene for ferroptosis, which in turn prolongs the lifespan of C. elegans.

Objective:To examine the associations of pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI), gestational weight gain, and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) with early childhood BMI trajectories.Methods:A total of 1 227 mother-child pairs from the Peking University Birth Cohort in Tongzhou were included in this study. In the cohort, maternal pre-pregnancy weight, height, gestational weight gain, and GDM diagnosis were collected. The children were followed up at birth and at 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36 months of age to obtain height/length and weight data. The longitudinal data-based k-means clustering algorithm was used to identify early childhood BMI trajectory groups. The associations of maternal pre-pregnancy BMI, gestational weight gain, and GDM with early childhood BMI trajectories were analyzed using the logistic regression model. We further explored whether there is an interaction effect between pre-pregnancy overweight/obesity and excessive gestational weight gain on the risk of the high BMI trajectory in early childhood through multiplicative and additive interaction analyses. Results:The prevalence rates of overweight and obesity before pregnancy were 21.2% (260 cases) and 6.6% (81 cases) respectively. The prevalence of excessive gestational weight gain and GDM was 57.7% (708 cases) and 30.9% (379 cases). The early childhood BMI trajectories were named low, medium, and high trajectories, accounting for 30.5%, 45.4% and 24.1%, respectively. After controlling potential confounding factors, it was found that pre-pregnancy overweight ( OR=1.54, 95% CI: 1.12-2.12), obesity ( OR=2.33, 95% CI: 1.41-3.85), and excessive gestational weight gain ( OR=1.47, 95% CI: 1.10-1.97) were risk factors for being in the high BMI trajectory in early childhood. GDM was not significantly associated with early childhood BMI trajectories ( P>0.05). Compared with the independent effects of pre-pregnancy overweight/obesity ( OR=1.90, 95% CI: 1.17-3.09) and excessive gestational weight gain ( OR=1.45, 95% CI: 1.03-2.04), the risk of being in the high BMI trajectory in early childhood was greater when the two factors coexisted ( OR=2.38, 95% CI: 1.60-3.54). However, both the multiplicative and additive models showed no interaction effect between pre-pregnancy overweight/obesity and excessive gestational weight gain. Conclusions:Maternal pre-pregnancy overweight/obesity and excessive gestational weight gain are independent risk factors for children being in the high BMI trajectory in early childhood, providing scientific evidence for obesity prevention.

Background Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder(OCD)are common psychological disorders with similar clinical symptoms,but the differences between the two need further clarification.Objective To explore the clinical features of and influencing factors of obsessive-compulsive personality disorder in patients with OCD,so as to provide references for further relevant clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods A total of 195 patients with OCD were selected as the research subjects,who received treatment at the outpatient and inpatient departments of the Affiliated Brain Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from July 2022 to December 2023 and met the diagnostic criteria for OCD in the International Classification of Diseases,tenth edition(ICD-10).Evaluation was conducted by using the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale(Y-BOCS),Personality Diagnostic Questionnaire-4+(PDQ-4+),Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory-Revised(OCI-R),Beck Depression Inventory(BDI),Beck Anxiety Inventory(BAI)and Sheehan Disability Scale(SDS).In accordance with the score of Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder Scale in PDQ-4+,patients were divided into the OCD group with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder(n=58)and the OCD group without obsessive-compulsive personality disorder(n=137).Pearson correlation analysis and Spearman correlation analysis were adopted to examine the correlation between clinical features and the score of the Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder Scale.Multiple linear regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of OCD patients with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder.Results Statistically significant differences were observed between OCD patients with and without obsessive-compulsive personality disorder in the age,family history of mental illness,time without treatment,hoarding and ranking dimension scores in OCI-R,OCI-R total score,score of Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder Scale in PDQ-4,and BDI score(P≤0.05).OCD patients with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder in the time without treatment,OCI-R total score,hoarding and ranking dimension scores in OCI-R and BDI score are all positively correlated with the score of the Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder Scale(r=0.120,0.526,0.364,0.492,0.414,P<0.05).The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that time without treatment(β=0.132,P<0.05),hoarding dimension score(β=0.283,P<0.05)and ranking dimension score in OCI-R(β=0.418,P<0.05)were the influencing factors of OCD patients with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder.Conclusion OCD patients with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder may have longer untreated periods,more pronounced functional impairments in hoarding and sorting and more severe depressive symptoms.Untreated time,hoarding symptoms and sorting symptoms may be influencing factors for OCD patients with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder.
