Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of robot-assisted coronary artery bypass grafting through a small incision in the left intercostal space in the treatment of multivessel coronary disease. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting through a small incision in the left intercostal space at Central China Fuwai Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 1, 2023 to October 15, 2024. Patients were divided into a robotic group and a minimally invasive group based on whether the surgery was assisted by the Da Vinci robot. Results A total of 81 patients were included, with 57 in the minimally invasive group, including 41 males and 16 females, with a median age of 65.0 (57.5, 69.5) years; and 24 in the robotic group, including 17 males and 7 females, with a median age of 61.0 (56.0, 69.0) years. There was no statistically significant difference in baseline data between the two groups (P>0.05). The robotic group had less intraoperative bleeding [300 (200, 438) mL vs. 500 (375, 600) mL, P=0.006], shorter postoperative mechanical ventilation time [15.0 (13.3, 23.5) h vs. 22.0 (15.5, 39.5) h, P=0.037], and lower incidence of postoperative pain [8 (33.3%) vs. 33 (57.9%), P=0.043]. The hospitalization cost in the robotic group was higher than that in the minimally invasive group [130491 (123298, 135691) yuan vs. 123892 (115543, 133449) yuan, P=0.023]. There was no statistical difference in postoperative laboratory indicators between the two groups (P>0.05). There was also no statistical difference in the duration of surgery, postoperative 24 h drainage volume, ICU stay time, postoperative hospital stay or incidences of perioperative compications including pleural effusion, transfusion, new-onset atrial fibrillation, acute kidney injury, non-union of incision, major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular adverse events, and reoperation between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Compared with the minimally invasive group, the robotic group shows satisfactory efficacy and can effectively reduce postoperative pain and intraoperative bleeding, and shorten postoperative mechanical ventilation time.

This study aims to understand the biological characteristics of Streptococcus dysgalacti-ae of yak origin.Bacterial isolation and identification,drug susceptibility test,virulence gene test and pathogenicity test were carried out on milk samples of yaks from Naqu City to evaluate the bi-ological characteristics of the isolated strains.Meanwhile,molecular biological information such as virulence factors and drug resistance genes were analyzed by whole genome sequencing,and viru-lence genes were verified by PCR.The results showed that a strain of Streptococcus dysgalactiae was isolated from the milk of yak,and its colony morphology was pinpoint size,smooth edge and milky white.This strain is sensitive to many antibiotics(penicillin G,cephalosporin,ciprofloxacin,tetracycline,erythromycin,etc.).Virulence gene test results showed that the strain carries six key virulence genes(cyl,eno,scpB,bca,bac and napr),which may be closely related to its pathoge-nicity.In the pathogenicity test,the mice were listless and less active after infection,but no death occurred during the observation period.The pathological changes of spleen,kidney,liver and lung tissue were found,suggesting that the strain had certain pathogenic potential but not high lethali-ty.Whole genome sequencing data showed that the gene length of this strain was 4 079 280 bp,the GC content was 39.41％,3 964 coding genes were predicted,604 of which were annotated as viru-lence factors,and another 28 gene mutations may enhance its pathogenic ability.Through annota-tion of CARD database,two Pat A resistance genes and two lmrp resistance genes were found,re-vealing their potential resistance mechanism.Through whole genome sequencing technology and bioinformatics analysis method,this study revealed the genomic characteristics,drug resistance and pathogenicity mechanism of Streptococcus dysgalactiae of yak origin.The findings provide impor-tant scientific evidence for further exploration of the pathogenicity,drug resistance mechanisms,and molecular evolution of yak-derived Streptococcus agalactiae.

Objective To explore the current situation,hot spots and trends of clinical research on the treatment of carotid atherosclerosis(CAS)with traditional Chinese medicine.Methods Search CNKI,Wanfang,VIP,Web of Science core collection database related literature,using Python 3.9.6 cleaning data,using CiteSpace and VOSviewer for visual analysis of authors,institutions,keywords,etc.Results 910 Chinese literatures and 5 English literatures were included.The most published authors were Wang Changyin and Yin Chunping,and the institution was Handan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine,Hebei Province.The cooperation between institutions was independent and regional.Research focus on:phlegm stasis interjunction,dyslipidemia,inflammatory factors,vascular endothelial function,nerve function defect,Banxia Baizhu Tianma decoction,coronary heart disease and so on;The treatment of CAS from"interjunction of phlegm and blood stasis"will continue to become a research hotspot in this field.Conclusion The clinical research of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of CAS should be closely combined with the observation of curative effect and the revelation of mechanism,and the law of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of CAS should be explored.In the future,the treatment of CAS should focus on the treatment of"phlegm and blood stasis",and the pathogenesis principle of"phlegm and blood stasis",the efficacy and mechanism of resolving phlegm and removing blood stasis in the treatment of CAS should be systematically and deeply explored.

Porcine arthritis,one of the common chronic diseases in large-scale pig farms,can signifi-cantly reduce the production performance of meat pigs.In this study,a strain of Haemophilus pa-rasuis(HPS)was isolated from the joint fluid of a lame pig.The HPS was analyzed in terms of se-rotypes,virulence genes,and resistance genes.Additionally,it was treated with sensitive antibiotics to provide a theoretical basis for the comprehensive prevention and treatment of arthritis in meat pigs in future production settings.A strain of HPS type 14 was isolated from the joint fluid of dis-eased pigs.The HPS isolate demonstrated sensitivity to β-lactams and tetracyclines,while florfeni-col and polymyxin effectively inhibited its growth at low concentrations.However,the bacteria ex-hibited resistance to sulfonamides and ciprofloxacin.The treatment of affected pigs with clinical ar-thritis using doxycycline and enrofloxacin injections proved effective.Compared to the infected group,in which the sick pigs experienced difficulty flexing their carpal and tarsal joints and exhibi-ted significant lameness,the pigs in the treatment group showed marked improvement.Their joints were only slightly swollen,and the clinical symptoms of arthropathy were alleviated.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and analyze the causes of complications of allogeneic decellularized dermal matrix grafts in the treatment of gingival recession using tunneling technology.Methods:Sixty patients with single or multiple gingival re-cession were randomly divided into an allogeneic decellularized matrix(ADM)group and a connective tissue(SCTG)group.Tunne-ling technique(TUN)were used in both groups to cover the root surface,and the gingival margin position,gingival margin morpholo-gy,and mucogingival junction position of the affected teeth at 1 week,3 weeks,3 months,and 6 months after surgery were observed.Check and record the gingival recession depth(RD)and mean root coverage(MRC)at the implant site before and 6 months after surgery.Record patient satisfaction at 3 weeks and 6 months after surgery.Results:Compared with the traditional SCTG group,the MRC of the ADM group was significantly lower before surgery and 6 months after surgery(P＜0.05).The satisfaction level of the ADM group was higher 3 weeks after surgery,with a significant difference compared to the SCTG group(P＜0.05).But 6 months after surgery,the satisfaction levels of the two groups tended to be consistent,with no significant difference.After TUN+ADM surgery,there was 1 case of abscess infection lesion,and another 3 cases showed local tissue necrosis at the gingival margin one week after surgery.After 3 months of treatment,the gingival color of these 4 patients was pink and tough texture,without swelling and bleeding.Conclusion:Although ADM is slightly inferior to SCTG in the treatment of gingival recession,it may be related to poor postoperative tissue healing complications.However,as long as it is handled properly,long-term follow-up observations have shown that gingival tissue can still achieve complete healing.TUN+ADM is a highly effective treatment for gingival recession and is suitable for further clinical application.

OBJECTIVE:External fixators and plate internal fixation are commonly used treatments for comminuted distal radius fractures,each with its own advantages and disadvantages in clinical practice. To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of external fixator and plate internal fixation in the treatment of comminuted distal radius fractures,and to provide a basis for the development of guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of distal radius fractures with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine. METHODS:PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,Cochrane Library,China National Knowledge Infrastructure,China Biomedical Literature Database,VIP,andWanFang databases were systematically searched to include randomized controlled trials on external fixators and internal plate fixation for the treatment of comminuted distal radial fractures published from October 2013 to October 2023. The literature was screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Review Manager was used for literature quality evaluation and meta-analysis.RESULTS:(1) Eight articles were included,including 4 in Chinese and 4 in English,with a total sample size of 648 cases,including 328 cases in the external fixation stent group and 320 cases in the internal fixation plate group. (2) At 3 months after operation,the internal fixation plate group was superior to the external fixation stent group in the range of dorsal extension,palmar flexion and supination. At 12 months after operation,the grip strength,palmar inclination,palmar flexion,pronation and supination in the internal fixation plate group were better than those in the external fixation stent group. The postoperative infection in the internal fixation plate group was better than that in the external fixation stent group,and there was no statistical difference in other outcome indicators.CONCLUSION:Eight evidences showed that in the choice of treatment for comminuted distal radius fracture,both external fixation stent and incision plate internal fixation had good therapeutic effect,and plate internal fixation was better than other factors. However,for some special patients with highly severe comminuted distal radius fractures,poor bone quality,severely contaminated open fractures,and soft tissue swelling that did not allow incision surgery,external fixation was the first choice. The results of this study have limitations,and more high-quality,large-sample,multi-center randomized controlled trials are needed in the future,emphasizing the observation of long-term efficacy and other secondary indicators,and supplementing and optimizing the current research results.
