Objective:To investigate the impacts of the radiosensitivity of cell lines on a microdosimetric kinetic model (MKM) used in carbon-ion radiotherapy.Methods:The saturation-corrected specific energy ( ) of monoenergetic carbon ions was calculated using the Kiefer-Chatterjee (K-C) track structure model. Correction curve f(LET) was derived from experimental data on relative biological effectiveness (RBE) (RBE DSB-LET) defined based on the double-strand DNA break of the Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) and Fibroblast cell lines irradiated using carbon ions with varying linear energy transfer (LET) values. Then, based on the MKM, the D10-LET curves, as well as α and β databases, of the CHO and Fibroblast cell lines with varying radiosensitivity were determined. Results:Compared to the clinically applied MKM, the predicted D10 after correction while accounting for cell line radiosensitivity agreed better with experimental D10 values of the CHO and Fibroblast cell lines. Specifically, compared to experimental values in the literature, the D10 values calculated in the study and determined using the MKM showed mean squared errors (MSEs) of 0.04 and 0.71, for the CHO cell line and 0.35 and 0.55, respectively, for the Fibroblast cell line. For monoenergetic carbon ions with varying LET values, the calculated α and β values generally increased with cellular radiosensitivity. Conclusions:Incorporating cellular radiosensitivity into the MKM framework serves as a more specific method for RBE assessment while also providing a reference for advancing MKM applications and achieving the fine-scale calculations of RBE in carbon-ion radiotherapy.

Objective:To discuss the effect of concentrated growth factor(CGF)on the performance of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)sheets,and to clarify the role of CGF-containing composite cell sheets(CS)in the bone defect repairment.Methods:In in vitro experiments,the BMSCs were isolated and cultured from two 3-week-old SD rats;Alizarin Red S and Oil Red O staining were used to identify the osteogenic and adipogenic capabilities of BMSCs;CGF liquid extracts(CGFe)was prepared from three 3-week-old SD rats.The cells were divided into control group,traditional CS(BMSC-CS)group,and CGF-containing composite CS(CGF/BMSC-CS)group.The morphology of the CS in two groups was observed by HE staining.Alizarin Red and alkaline phosphatase(ALP)staining were used to detect the osteogenic differentiation of the CS in various groups;cell scratch assay was used to detect the migration abilities of the cells in various groups;real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of ALP,collagen are type 1(COL-1),Runt-related transcription factor 2(RUNX2),and osteocalcin(OCN)in the cells in various groups.In in vivo experiments,15 SD rats were randomly divided into control group,BMSC-CS group,and CGF/BMSC-CS group;micro computed tomography(Micro-CT)was used to detect the bone formation parameters in skull defects of the rats in various groups;HE staining and Masson staining were used to observe the morphology of skull defect tissue of the rats in various groups.Results:The third-generation BMSCs were spindle-shaped,closely arranged,and grew in a vortex cluster.The Alizarin red staining results showed obvious calcium nodules,and the Oil red O staining showed red lipid droplets,confirming the cells'ability to undergo osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation.The CS were white and semi-transparent,with slightly curled edges.The peeled CS were irregularly curled and wrinkled.Compared with BMSC-CS group,the CS in CGF/BMSC-CS group were whiter,less transparent,significantly increased in thickness and extensibility,less prone to breakage,and had a certain degree of stickiness and plasticity.The HE staining results showed that compared with BMSC-CS group,the number of the cells of CS in CGF/BMSC-CS group was increased,with denser arrangement and more abundant extracellular matrix(ECM),which wrapped and connected the cells to form an integral sheet-like structure.The Alizarin red and ALP staining results showed that compared with control group,the ALP activity and mineralization uplift value of CS in BMSC-CS group were significantly increased(P<0.05);compared with control group and BMSC-CS group,the number of osteoblasts and red mineralized nodules in the CS in CGF/BMSC-CS group was significantly increased,with obvious deepening of the staining,increased positive area,and the ALP activity and mineralization uplift value were significantly increased(P<0.05).Compared with BMSC-CS group,the ALP activity and mineralization uplif value of the CS in CGF/DMSC-CS group were increased(P<0.05).The cell scratch assay results showed that after 24 of culture,compared with control group,the migration rates of the cells in BMSC-CS group and CGF/BMSC-CS group were significantly increased(P<0.05).Compared with BMSC-CS group,the migration rate of the cells in CGF/BMSC-CS group was significantly increased(P<0.01).After 48 h of culture,compared with control group,the migration rate of the cells in CGF/BMSC-CS group was significantly increased(P<0.05).The RT-qPCR results showed that compared with control group,the expression levels of COL-1 and OCN mRNA in the cells in BMSC-CS group were significantly increased(P<0.01),and the expression levels of ALP,COL-1,OCN,and RUNX2 mRNA in the cells in CGF/BMSC-CS group were significantly increased(P<0.01).Compared with BMSC-CS group,the expression levels of ALP,COL-1,and OCN mRNA in the cells in CGF/BMSC-CS group were significantly increased(P<0.01).The Micro-CT detection results showed that in control group,the boundary of the rat skull defect area was clear,with almost no new bone formation.In BMSC-CS group,a small amount of new bone formed only at the edge of the bone defect in skull of the rats,with a significant gap in the central area of the defect.In CGF/BMSC-CS group,new bone formed along the edge of the bone defect towards the central area in skull of the rats,repairing most of the bone defect.Compared with control group,the bone volume(BV)and trabecular number(Tb.N)of the rats in BMSC-CS group were significantly increased(P<0.05);the bone volume(BV),bone volume fraction[BV/tissue volume(TV)],trabecular thickness(Tb.Th),and trabecular number(Tb.N)in skull of the rats in CGF/BMSC-CS group,were significantly increased(P<0.05).Compared with BMSC-CS group,the BV,BV/TV,Tb.Th,and Tb.N in skull of the rats in CGF/BMSC-CS group were significantly increased(P<0.01).The HE and Masson staining observation showed that in control group,almost no new bone formed in the skull defect tissue of the rats,with only a large amount of collagen fibers connecting the two sides of the bone ends.In BMSC-CS group,a small amount of new bone formed only at the edge of the bone defect in skull tissue of the rats,with the central area of the defect containing dense collagen fibers connected to the newly formed bone at the defect edge.In CGF/BMSC-CS group,new bone tissue could be seen at the edge of the bone defect,and bone islands formed in the central area of the defect,surrounded by osteocytes and a large amount of collagen fibers.The Masson staining observation results showed that the cytoplasm and osteoid were red,and the collagen was blue.In CGF/BMSC-CS group,newly formed osteoid was observed in skull defect tissue of the rats,with the highest amount of new bone formation.Conclusion:CGF can promote the osteogenic differentiation and increase the richness of ECM in BMSCs sheets.CGF-containing composite CS can efficiently repair skull defects of the rats and serve as an ideal and safe material for promoting the bone regeneration.

Hip fractures are among the most common fractures in the elderly, presenting to be a leading cause of disability and mortality. Surgical treatment is currently the main treatment method for hip fractures. The incidence of perioperative malnutrition is increased after hip fractures in the elderly due to the comorbidities, decreased basal metabolic rate, accelerated protein breakdown, weakened anabolism and surgical stress. However, malnutrition not only increases the incidence of postoperative complications, but also leads to increased mortality, indicating an important role of perioperative nursing management of nutrition for the elderly patients with hip fractures. At present, there still lacks scientific guidance and application standards on perioperative nursing management of nutrition for the elderly patients with hip fractures. Therefore, the Orthopedic Nursing Committee of Chinese Nursing Association and the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate the Expert consensus on perioperative nursing management of nutrition for elderly patients with hip fractures ( version 2023) according to evidence-based medical evidences and their clinical experiences. Fourteen recommendations were made from aspects of nutrition screening, nutrition assessment, nutrition diagnosis, nutrition intervention and nutrition monitoring to provide guidance for perioperative nursing management of nutrition in elderly patients with hip fractures.

To explore the correlation between the changes of the intestinal flora of newly treated pulmonary tuberculosis patients and the immune indicators of the body, and to provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis. A single-center and case-control study was adopted. From October 2020 to April 2021, 43 patients with newly diagnosed tuberculosis in the Department of Tuberculosis, Affiliated Changsha Central Hospital,University of South China were selected as the control group. 43 cases of newly treated pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB), 43 healthy control (HC) during the same period, collected fresh feces and whole blood of subjects, and used Illumina Hiseq high-throughput sequencing technology to analyze 16S of all microorganisms in feces The V4 region of rRNA was amplified and sequenced, and the structure of the intestinal flora was analyzed by QIIME software. Use flow cytometry to determine the subject′s immune indicators (CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 +, CD4 +CD25 +CD127 -Treg, CD14 +CD16 +, CD14 +CD16 -), and analyze the changes in intestinal flora and immune function in newly treated pulmonary tuberculosis patients Inherent connection. The χ2 test, t test, and Wilcox rank sum test were used to analyze the differences in age, gender, α diversity, and relative abundance of the two groups of people. Compared with the HC group, the alpha diversity of the intestinal flora in the PTB group decreased (shannon index: t=3.906, P=0.000 2; simpson index: Z=553, P=0.004 7; chao1 index: t=5.395, P=0.000 0). β diversity analysis showed that there were significant differences in the structure of the intestinal flora between the two groups ( P=0.000). Species difference analysis showed that at the phylum level, the relative abundance of Firmicutes in the PTB group was significantly lower than that in the HC group ( Z=486.0, P=0.000 5). At the genus level, there are 15 different bacterial genera between the two groups. In the PTB group, bifidobacterium, enterococcus, lactobacillus, anaerostipes, the relative abundance of the above 5 genera of veillonella is higher than that of the HC group ( P<0.05); Butyricimonas, clostridium, and broutella (blautia), coprococcus, dorea, lachnospira, roseburia, faecalibacterium, ruminococcus, the relative abundance of 10 bacterial genera including dialister was lower than that of the HC group ( P<0.05). Comparison of immune indexes between groups showed that CD14 +CD16 +monocytes (%) in the PTB group were higher than those in the HC group ( t=2.456, P=0.001 6<0.05), while CD14 +CD16 -monocytes (%) were lower than HC ( t=-4.368, P=0.000<0.05), while the differences in CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 +, CD4 +/CD8 +and Treg (CD4 +CD25 +CD127 -) were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that Firmicutes in the PTB group was negatively correlated with CD4 +/CD8 +, CD14 +CD16 +( r=-0.218, P=0.048; r=-0.245, P=0.025), and positively correlated with CD14 +CD16 -Correlation ( r=0.250, P=0.022); At the genus level, Faecalis is positively correlated with CD4 +/CD8 +and CD4 +( r=0.250, P=0.023; r=0.258, P=0.019); Rosella and CD3 +, CD8 +and CD14 +CD16 -are positively correlated ( r=0.27, P=0.024; r=0.219, P=0.046; r=0.027, P=0.039), and negatively correlated with CD14 +CD16 +( r=-0.280, P= 0.01). Changes in the structure of the intestinal flora of newly treated pulmonary tuberculosis patients may be one of the influencing factors of the immune function of the body. Targeted optimization of the structure of the intestinal flora and improvement of the body′s immunity may be used as an effective auxiliary treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis.
