Objective To evaluate the medium and long term safety and efficacy of sacrospinous ligament fixation (SSLF) performed with conventional instruments in treating stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ pelvic organ prolapse (POP).Methods A prospective cohort analysis was conducted in the Peking Union Medical College Hospital,between May 2007 and June 2015,enrolling 55 women with stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ POP who intended to receive SSLF.Primary end points were objective success rates using pelvic organ prolapse quantitation system (POP-Q) and subjective satisfaction rates with questionnaires after surgery according to vaginal examination and related questionnaires for all patients who received SSLF eventually.Exploratory outcomes included perioperative parameters and complications.Results Of these 55 POP patients enrolled,52 (95％,52/55) received SSLF using conventional surgical instruments,the other 3 cases converted to ischial spinous fascia fixation due to difficulty exposing.Medium blood loss during operation was 100 ml (20-300 ml) and operative time 60 minutes (20-165 minutes).Pelvic hematoma with diameters of 5 cm and 7 cm were observed in two patients,both recovered fully with conservative methods.All patients were able to micturate spontaneously after catheter withdrawal.One patient reported right thigh pain after operation which remained till 3-month follow-up and relieved after physiotherapy.The objective success rate was 100％ (52/52) at 3 months.With a medium follow-up time of 23.7 months,the objective success rate was 98％ (51/52),the recurrence rate was 2％ (1/52) and the satisfactory rate was 94％ (49/52).De novo urinary incontinence occurred in 6％ (3/52) of patients.Conclusion Most POP could be corrected with SSLF using conventional instruments which is a feasible,economic and effective procedure for Asian patients with medium compartment prolapse.

The CBD gene from Trichoderma reesei was cloned into the Corynebacterium glutamicum secretion expression vector pXMJ19-sp, in which green fluorescent protein was inserted to obtain pXMJ19-sp-GFP-CBD. After induced by 0.5 mmol/L IPTG, GFP-CBD was expressed in Corynebacterium glutamicum at high level of 200 mg/L. The GFP-CBD could be purified to high purity with cellulose column. The results indicated CBD can be successfully used in Corynebacterium glutamicum expression system and thus offer an extremely simple, effective and scalable way for production of recombinant proteins.

Ferroptosis is a novel type of cell death, characterized by iron overload and lipid metabolism disorders, and is closely related to the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, tumors, and acute injuries. When tissues and organs of the body are in a state of ischemia and hypoxia, iron ions initiate lipid peroxidation and produce a large number of oxygen free radicals. A series of oxidative stress reactions are more likely to trigger ferroptosis. In the process of cervical spondylosis of vertebral artery type, insufficient blood supply to the vertebral artery caused by degenerative changes of the cervical spine leads to imbalance of iron homeostasis and abnormal amino acid metabolism. Then ferroptosis is induced and plays an important role in the development of cervical spondylosis of vertebral artery type. This paper reviewed the mechanism of ferroptosis in the occurrence of cervical spondylosis of vertebral artery type, in order to provide new ideas and perspectives for the study of related problems of the disease.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ozone injection therapy for lumbar disc hemiation(LDH).Methods A computerized retrieval of academic papers concerning the randomized controlled trial(RCT)on ozone injection therapy for LDH from the databases of Embase,PubMed,Cochrane library and Web of science was conducted.The retrieval time period was from the establishment of the database to February 2023.The literature retrieval,screening,and data extraction were independently performed by two researchers.Cochrane bias risk assessment tool was used to assess the quality of the included literature.Stata 17.0 software was used to make meta-analysis.Results A total of 9 RCTs including 702 patients were finally included in this study.The results of meta-analysis showed that compared with radiofrequency thermocoagulation,percutaneous rotation and other treatments for LDH,the combination use of ozone injection could signifiicantly improve the effective rate based on Macnab efficacy evaluation criteria(RR=1.097,95％CI:1.038～1.159,P=0.001)and the excellent rate(RR=1.185～95％CI:1.074～1.309,P=0.001),and decrease the visual analog scale(VAS)pain score(WMD=-0.810～95％CI:-1.205～-0.414,P=0.000),and the differences in the above indexes were statistically significant.Conclusion Compared with the simple use of radiofrequency thermocoagulation,percutaneous rotation,and other treatment for LDH,the combination use of ozone injection therapy can significantly improve the effective rate and excellent rate based on Macnab efficacy evaluation criteria,decrease VAS score,with a high clinical safety.Limited by the quantity and quality of the original studies included in this study,the above conclusions need to be further verified by multi-center,large-sample and high-quality studies.
