Objective:To compare the clinical effect of femoral neck system (FNS) and cannulated compression screw internal fixation in the treatment of femoral neck fractures in young and middle-aged patients.Methods:The databases of CNKI, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, VIP, Chinese Medical Journal Full-text Database, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane Library were searched. The intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative fluoroscopy times, hospital stay, fracture healing time, Harris hip function score, partial weight-bearing time and complication rate were extracted to compare the clinical efficacy of the two surgical methods. Stata18.0 statistical software was used for meta-analysis.Results:A total of 699 patients from 11 studies were included in this study. Compared with cannulated compression screw internal fixation, the FNS had a shorter operation time [ WMD= -8.54, 95% CI(-14.87, -2.21), P=0.008], fewer intraoperative fluoroscopy times[ WMD= -8.29, 95% CI(-11.45, -5.12), P< 0.001], a shorter fracture healing time [ WMD=-1.59, 95% CI(-2.49, -0.68), P=0.001], a shorter partial weight-bearing time[ WMD=-3.45, 95% CI(-4.43, -2.46), P<0.001], a lower incidence of postoperative complications [ RR=0.41, 95% CI(0.22, 0.76), P= 0.004], and a lower incidence of postoperative nonunion [ RR=0.40, 95% CI(0.18, 0.88), P=0.022]. Meanwhile, the FNS group had more intraoperative blood loss [ WMD=9.53, 95% CI(2.70, 16.35), P=0.006] and a higher Harris hip function score at the last follow-up [ WMD=3.50, 95% CI(2.11, 4.89), P<0.001] than the cannulated compression screw internal fixation group. There were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay [ WMD=-0.48, 95% CI(-0.82, -0.13), P=0.092] or the incidence of femoral head necrosis [ RR=0.57, 95% CI(0.26, 1.24), P=0.159] between the two groups. Conclusion:Compared with cannulated compression screw internal fixation in the treatment of femoral neck fracture in young and middle-aged patients, FNS has more intraoperative blood loss, but it has more advantages in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative fluoroscopy times, postoperative fracture healing time, Harris hip function score, partial weight-bearing time, postoperative nonunion rate and postoperative complications rate.

ObjectiveTo determine the association between solid fuel exposure and cancer risk among middle-aged and elderly adults in China, to investigate the underlying biological pathways through selected serological markers, and to examine whether adequate physical activity can mitigate this risk by modulating these pathways. MethodsBased on baseline characteristics, health status indicators and hematological data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS, 2011‒2018), multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to assess the association between solid fuel use and cancer risk, with stratified analyses conducted by physical activity levels. In addition, mediation analyses were performed to evaluate the role of serological markers including hemoglobin concentration and hematocrit in the association between solid fuel use and cancer incidence. ResultsSolid fuel use was significantly associated with an increased cancer risk (OR=1.344, 95%CI: 1.113‒1.615). This association remained significant among individuals with low levels of physical activity ( OR=1.344, 95%CI: 1.067‒1.673 ), but not statistically significant among those with adequate physical activity. Hemoglobin concentration and hematocrit showed a negative mediating effect between solid fuel use and cancer incidence, and this effect was stronger among those with low levels of physical activity. ConclusionIndoor solid fuel use represents an important environmental risk factor for cancer incidence in China’s middle-aged and elderly population, while regular physical activity may reduce carcinogenic risk through modulation of inflammatory levels and hematological indicators such as hemoglobin and hematocrit. Public health strategies should integrate clean energy promotion with exercise interventions to mitigate the cancer burden associated with solid fuel pollution.

To characterize the genomes of different emm-type group A Streptococcus (GAS), their virulence genes and drug resistance profiles in Tianjin City from 2011 to 2024. After PCR, a total of 42 strains with different years and emm types were selected for whole genome sequencing and multi-locus sequence typing (MLST), and the core genomes were used to generate a phylogenetic tree, after which the virulence genes and resistance genes were identified and analyzed, followed by the drug susceptibility test. In this study, the GAS strains were dominated by emm1 (50.0%) and emm12 (40.4%), and the MLST phenotypes were categorized into six types: ST36 (40.4%), ST1274 (26.1%), ST28 (23.8%), ST921 (4.7%), ST46 (2.3%), and ST403 (2.3%). There was a high consistency between their emm-types and ST types. A total of 68 virulence genes were detected in the genomes of 42 GAS strains, involving functional genes encoding exotoxin, bacterial adhesion, extracellular enzymes, etc. The virulence genes they carried were significantly different between emm1-type and emm12-type strains, such as speA. At the same time, the carrying rates of some virulence genes in the same emm-type strains changed with time, such as hyl. The resistance genes were basically the same among different emm-type strains except for the vanSE gene detected in all emm12 strains. The results of drug sensitivity showed that the GAS strains isolated in Tianjin City from 2011 to 2024 were sensitive to penicillin, cefazolin, chloramphenicol, vancomycin, and levofloxacin, while the resistance rates to erythromycin, azithromycin, clarithromycin, and clindamycin ranged from 88.5% to 100.0%, and there was a certain degree of consistency between the resistance phenotypes and the detected resistance genes. Overall, the main emm types and evolutionary features of GAS in Tianjin City from 2011 to 2024 were consistent with the dominant types in China, and the carrying rate of virulence genes and drug resistance genes differed significantly among different emm-type strains, and there were continuous evolution and variation in the prevalence of virulence genes in GAS.

Objective To investigate the effects of electrochemically dealloying of Ti6Al4V abutments on human gingival fibroblasts(HGFs)and to provide experimental evidence for surface modification of implant abutments.Methods The samples were divided into an NC group(negative control,no other treatment on a smooth surface),an NM-1 group(nanomesh-1,electrochemical dealloying treatment in 1 mol/L NaOH 1 h on 2 V voltage),and an NM-2 group(nanomesh-2,electrochemical dealloying treatment in 5 mol/L NaOH 1 h on 2 V voltage).The surface morpholo-gies of the samples and the adhesion of HGFs on the sample surfaces were observed with scanning electron microscopy(SEM).The surface hydrophilicities of the samples were measured with a contact angle measuring instrument.The prolif-eration of HGFs on the different samples were evaluated with CCK-8,and the expression of adhesion-related genes,in-cluding collagen Ⅰ(COL1A1),collagen Ⅲ(COL3A1),fibronectin 1(FN1),focal adhesion kinase(FAK),vinculin(VCL),integrin α2(ITGA2),and integrin β1(ITGB1),on the different samples was measured with qRT-PCR.The ex-pression of vinculin on the surfaces of HGFs was observed via confocal laser scanning microscopy(CLSM)after immuno-fluorescent staining.Collagen fiber secretion and syntheses of HGFs from different samples were evaluated via Sirius red staining.Results SEM revealed the formation of ordered and uniform three-dimensional mesh structures on the surfaces of the NM-1 and NM-2 groups,with grid diameters of approximately 30 nm for the NM-1 group and approxi-mately 150 nm for the NM-2 group.Compared with that of the NC group,the water contact angles of the NM-1 group and NM-2 groups were significantly lower(P<0.000 1).Cell proliferation in the NM-1 group was significantly greater than that in the NC group(P<0.01).Moreover,there was no significant difference in the water contact angles or cell prolifer-ation between the NM-1 group and the NM-2 group.SEM revealed that HGFs were adhered well to the surfaces of all samples,while the HGFs in the NM-1 and NM-2 groups showed more extended areas,longer morphologies,and more de-veloped pseudopodia than did those in the NC group after 24 h.qRT-PCR revealed that the expression levels of the ad-hesion-related genes COL1A1,COL3A1,FN1,FAK and VCL in the NM-1 group were significantly greater than those in the NC and NM-2 groups(P<0.01).The expression of vinculin protein in the NM-1 group was the highest,and the num-ber of focal adhesions was greatest in the NM-1 group(P<0.01).The results of Sirius red staining showed that the NM-1 group had the highest secretion and syntheses of collagen fibers(P<0.000 1).Conclusion The three-dimensional nanomechanical structure of Ti6Al4V modified by electrochemical dealloying promoted the adhesion,proliferation,colla-gen fiber secretion and syntheses of HGFs,and electrochemical dealloying of Ti6Al4V with a grid diameter of approxi-mately 30 nm obviously promoted HGF formation.

Objective :
To investigate the effect of miR-141-3p on LPS induced A549 cell injury by targeting high mobility group protein 1 (HMGB1) .
Methods :
A549 cells derived from type Ⅱ alveolar epithelial cells were taken as the study object,miR-141-3p mimics,mimics NC,HMGB1 gene overexpression plasmid (pcDNA3. 1-HMGB1) and empty Vector were transfected into A549 cells respectively or co-transfected,then 10 μg / ml LPS was used for 24 h.Cell proliferation activity was detected by cell counting kit-8 ( CCK-8) .The activity of lactate dehydrogenase ( LDH) in the supernatant of cell culture was detected by colorimetry.The apoptosis level of each group was detec- ted by flow cytometry.The levels of interleukin (IL) -1 β , IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Elisa) .Dual luciferase reporter gene assay verified the targeted regulatory relationship between miR-141-3p and HMGB1 .
Results :
After treatment with LPS ,the proliferative activity of A549 cells and the expression level of miR-141-3p decreased ( P <0. 05 ) ,the apoptosis rate increased ( P < 0. 05) ,the levels of IL-1 β , IL-6,TNF-α and the activity of LDH in supernatant increased (P<0. 05) .Overex- pression of miR-141-3p increased the proliferation activity of A549 cells treated with LPS (P <0. 05 ) ,and de- creased the apoptosis rate and the levels of IL-1 β , IL-6,TNF-α in cells and LDH activity in supernatant (P < 0. 05) .However,overexpression of HMGB1 gene could reverse the ameliorative effect of miR-141-3p on LPS-in- duced A549 cell injury.Dual luciferase reporter gene experiment confirmed that HMGB1 was the downstream target gene of miR-141-3p.
Conclusion
miR-141-3p can inhibit LPS-induced apoptosis,reduce the expression level of inflammatory factors,and improve the damage of A549 cells,which may be related to the targeted regulation of HMGB1 expression.
