【Objective】 To summarize the clinicopathological features and prognosis of young patients (18-40 years old) with non-clear cell renal cell carcinoma (nccRCC) treated in a single center to provide reference for the diagnosis and treatment of similar patients. 【Methods】 Clinical data of 113 nccRCC patients treated during Jan. 2012 and Aug. 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 57 males (50.4%) and 56 females (49.6%). The average age of onset was (31.6±5.8) years. Among all patients, 57 had lesions (50.4%) on the left side, and 56 (49.6%) on the right side. Young patients undergoing renal cancer surgery accounted for approximately 12.4% of the total number of renal cancer patients undergoing surgery, and nccRCC accounted for 34.8% of the total number of cases. 【Results】 Minimally invasive surgery (laparoscopic or robot-assisted) was performed in 102 cases (90.3%), and open surgery in 11 cases (9.7%). Fifty-five cases (48.7%) underwent partial nephrectomy and 58 (51.3%) radical nephrectomy. Among them, 11 patients (9.7%) developed tumor thrombi. All surgeries were successful with no serious complications. The pathological types included 32 cases (28.3%) of chromophobe renal cell carcinoma, 25 cases (22.1%) of MiT family translocation renal cell carcinoma, and 20 cases (17.7%) of papillary renal cell carcinoma. The total proportion of the three pathological subtypes reached 68.1%. After 46 (2-115) months of follow-up, 8 cases (7.8%, 8/102) developed tumor metastasis and 2 died. 【Conclusion】 The nccRCC is rare in young patients. The major pathological type is chromophobe, and the major treatment method is minimally invasive surgery. Most pathological types have good long-term prognosis, while patients with tumor thrombi have a high risk of metastasis and poor prognosis.

BACKGROUND:Internal tension-reduction technique is to reconstruct the anterior cruciate ligament through high-strength suture system combined with tendon.It can effectively reduce graft relaxation and frets by sharing the internal load of the knee joint,and has achieved good biomechanical results and clinical efficacy.However,whether it can reduce cartilage degeneration after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction through stress sharing reduction has not been studied. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of internal tension-reduction technique on articular cartilage degeneration in southern Yunnan small-ear pigs undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. METHODS:Ten adult female Yunnan small-ear pigs were selected,and the ipsilateral knee Achilles tendon was taken from the left knee joint for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction(normal group,n=10),and the ipsilateral knee Achilles tendon from the right knee joint combined with internal tension-reduction and augmentation system for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction(tension-reduction group,n=10).One year after surgery,the experimental pigs were sacrificed,and the left and right knee cartilage was taken for hematoxylin-eosin staining,Safranin O-fast green staining,Osteoarthritis Research Society International scoring,and immunohistochemistry staining of type Ⅱ collagen,interleukin-1β,and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in the cartilage. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that in the tension-reduction group,there were mild pathologic changes of osteoarthritis,with a low number of empty bone lacunae and no obvious pathological changes such as fibrosis or cell layer breakage;in the normal group,more severe cartilage damage,with an increased number of empty bone lacunae,loss of chondrocytes near the bone and even the formation of fissures.Safranin O-fast green staining indicated that the tension-reduction group had normal cartilage tissue thickness,flat cartilage surface,a neat cell arrangement in a polar pattern,and no swelling or apoptosis,while in the normal group,the thickness of cartilage tissue was obviously thinner,the cell arrangement was disordered with no polarity,the number of cells was reduced,obvious cartilage fractures and cartilage vacuoles formed,and the absence of cells near the central bone was obvious.The Osteoarthritis Research Society International score was significantly lower in the tension-reduction group than in the normal group(P<0.05).Immunohistochemical findings showed that the protein expression of type Ⅱ collagen in cartilage tissue of the tension-reducing group was higher than that of the normal group(P<0.05),and the protein expression of interleukin 1β and tumor necrosis factor ɑ in cartilage tissue was lower than that of normal group(P<0.05).To conclude,internal tension-reduction technique can delay the degeneration of articular cartilage in Yunnan small-eared pigs following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

BACKGROUND:In recent years,some scholars in the field of tendon bone injury have attached stromal cell-derived factor 1 to tissue engineering scaffolds to promote tendon bone healing,and achieved good results.However,whether stromal cell-derived factor 1 promotes tendon bone healing mechanisms and participates in the repair of natural healing has not yet been defined. OBJECTIVE:To study the expression of stroma-cell derived factor 1 during tendon bone healing after rupture of the whole supraspinatus muscle of the rabbit rotator cuff and its migration effect and optimal in vitro migration promoting concentration on stem cells during tendon bone injury. METHODS:Totally 18 adult New Zealand rabbits were randomly selected to establish rotator cuff injury models,and an additional 3 rabbits were selected as blank controls.At 3,5,7,14,21,and 28 days after modeling,three rabbits were executed separately and the rabbits in the blank group were sacrificed.The tissues of tendon bone junction were taken and stored in a-80℃refrigerator.The expression of stromal cell-derived factor 1 was detected by ELISA at each time point after injury.Mesenchymal stem cells were isolated from the bone marrow of young rabbit femur,cultured,and identified.Transwell assay was performed to verify the migration-promoting effect of stromal cell-derived factor 1 on stem cells and the optimal migration-promoting concentration in vitro.The stem cells cultured to P3 were co-cultured with BrdU and injected into the rabbit ear marginal vein,and immunohistochemical staining was used to verify whether the stem cells migrated to the injury site. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Stromal cell-derived factor 1 gene expression was bimodal during rotator cuff tendon bone healing.Stromal cell-derived factor 1 gene expression increased significantly at 3 days post-injury(P<0.01)and then decreased,reaching a minimum at 5 days post-injury.It increased again and reached a peak 14 days after injury(P<0.01)and then decreased.(2)Cell immunohistochemical staining displayed that stem cells labeled with BrdU did migrate to the injury site.(3)The results of the transwell experiment exhibited that 60-80 ng/mL stromal cell-derived factor 1 had the best effect on promoting migration of stem cells,while a concentration of 200 ng/mL inhibited migration.(4)Stromal cell-derived factor 1 is involved in the healing of rotator cuff tendon bone during the inflammatory response phase and the proliferation phase.The mechanism of action may be to promote the migration of stem cells to the injury and their differentiation into various types of cells to promote repair.In addition,the pro-migration effect of stromal cell-derived factor 1 exists at a range of concentrations,beyond which it may act as an inhibitor.

BACKGROUND:As a dominant breed pig in southwest China,the southern Yunnan small-ear pig has been widely used as an experimental animal in the basic research of other disciplines,but there are still no reports on its application in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. OBJECTIVE:To establish a large animal model of the southern Yunnan small-ear pig with anterior cruciate ligament with autologous Achilles tendon was established. METHODS:Twenty adult female Yunnan small-ear pigs were equally randomized into two groups.In the autologous Achilles tendon group,the right knee anterior cruciate ligament was reconstructed with autologous Achilles tendon as a graft,while in the sham-operated group,a similar operation was performed on the right knee without any treatment of the anterior cruciate ligament.General conditions of each pig were observed and recorded before and 12 months after surgery.Ligaments and grafts were taken for gross observation and MAS scoring.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was performed to observe morphological characteristics of ligaments.The staining and arrangement of type I and type Ⅲ collagen were evaluated by immunohistochemistry.Transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the type,size,diameter,ratio,and distribution of collagen fibers in ligaments. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:All animals had normal diet and activity,good wound healing,no obvious inflammatory reaction,no local purulent infection,and no significant changes in mental and urinary conditions compared with those before surgery.The reconstructed cruciate ligament of the knee was intact,with no stiffness and normal range of motion.Both the anterior drawer and Lachman tests were negative.Gross observation of the graft:12 months after surgery,the grafts was in good position,with good integrity,obvious tension,ligament color close to the original anterior cruciate ligament,and complete surface synovial coverage.Most of the intraarticular ligaments in the autologous Achilles tendon group were defined as MAS I type and a few were defined as MAS Ⅱ type.In the sham-operated group,the intraarticular ligament was defined as MAS I type.Hematoxylin-eosin staining indicated that,12 months after surgery,collagen fibers in the autologous Achilles tendon group began to appear bundled,isotropic,and uniformly arranged,with more obvious isotropic corrugations,and the nuclei were mainly linear or spindle-shaped,which were similar to those in normal anterior cruciate ligament tissue of the sham-operated group.Immunohistochemistry results indicated that,12 months after surgery,there was a higher expression of type I collagen and significantly less expression of type Ⅲ collagen in the reconstructed anterior cruciate ligament in the autologous Achilles tendon group.The degree of type I and type Ⅲ staining was similar in the two groups.Under the transmission electron microscope,the diameter,arrangement and density of collagen fibers in the reconstructed anterior cruciate ligament of the autologous Achilles tendon group were similar to those of the original anterior cruciate ligament at 12 months after surgery,indicating that the ligament remodeling process had been basically completed in the autologous Achilles tendon group at 12 months after surgery.Through a comprehensive evaluation of animal general conditions,ligament general view,MAS score,hematoxylin-eosin staining,immunohistochemistry,and transmission electron microscopy observation,we successfully established a large animal model of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using autogenous Achilles tendon in southern Yunnan small-ear pigs,with good morphological,histological and ultrastructural results.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effectiveness of Piezocision combined with a microporous technique in accelerating periodontal tissue reconstruction during the anterior migration of mandibular molars in adults.Methods:A prospective, randomized, controlled study was conducted on 30 adult orthodontic patients recruited from Shaoxing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between January 2020 and September 2022. The inclusion criteria were patients who were unable to retain their first molars due to severe caries or long-term absence and were not suitable for implantation. Using the random number table method, the patients were randomly assigned to two groups: a simple orthodontic control group (Group A, n = 15) and a group that received Piezocision combined with a microporous technique (Group B, n = 15). After treatment, a comparison was made between the two groups in terms of mesial movement distance of the mandibular second molar, plaque index, gingival index, periodontal pocket depth, width of keratinized gingiva, gingival recession, clinical attachment loss, mesial root resorption of the mandibular second molar, alveolar bone height (measured as the distance from the center of the lower incisor to the anterior margin of the chin, referred to as the LM-AC distance), mandibular bone height (measured by the distance from the distal or mesial surface of the root to the alveolar bone margin, denoted as the CEJ-AC distance), and orthodontic satisfaction. Results:The mesial movement distances of the mandibular second molar in Group A patients were (0.86 ± 0.13) mm, (2.75 ± 0.24) mm, (3.54 ± 0.24) mm, and (4.67 ± 0.13) mm at 4, 6, 8, and 12 weeks, respectively. These values were significantly greater than those observed in Group B, which were (0.43 ± 0.06) mm, (1.27 ± 0.14) mm, (1.85 ± 0.53) mm, and (2.65 ± 0.06) mm ( t = 6.83, 14.13, 18.24, 23.78, all P < 0.001). Prior to treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in plaque index, gingival index, periodontal pocket depth, width of keratinized gingiva, gingival recession, or clinical attachment loss between the two groups (all P > 0.05). After treatment, Group A did not exhibit statistically significant differences in plaque index, gingival index, width of keratinized gingiva, and gingival recession compared with baseline values (all P > 0.05). However, in Group A, periodontal pocket depth and clinical attachment loss significantly increased compared with pretreatment levels ( t = -2.57, -7.50, both P < 0.05). After treatment, Group B exhibited significantly increased values for periodontal pocket depth, width of keratinized gingiva, gingival recession, and clinical attachment loss compared with baseline levels ( t = -8.66, -5.57, -45.33, -9.72, all P < 0.001). Furthermore, these values were significantly higher in Group B compared with those in Group A ( t = -4.28, -3.18, 10.00, 10.69, all P < 0.001). A statistically significant difference was also observed between the two groups in terms of mesial root resorption of the mandibular second molar ( t = 4.14, P < 0.001). However, there was no statistically significant difference in LM-AC distance between the two groups after treatment ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:The combination of Piezocision and a microporous technique can effectively accelerate the anterior migration of mandibular molars in adults while maintaining the health of periodontal tissues. This approach holds great potential for clinical promotion.

In recent years, clinicians have paid more attention to the biological and esthetic effects of the 2 mm keratinized mucosa width (KMW) around dental implant. How to increase the keratinized mucosa is the focus of clinicians. While the free gingival graft (FGG) is still the gold standard of keratinized mucosa augmentation, alveolar ridge preservation (ARP), connective tissue graft (CTG) and apically positioned flap (APF) can also be used to obtain more than 2 mm keratinized mucosa width when they are used before implantation, with implantation, within the implant-healing phase, with second stage of implantation or after rehabilitation according to different indications. This article comprehensively summarizes the influencing factors of timing and surgical procedures for keratinized mucosa augmentation, providing guidance for clinicians to treat peri-implant keratinized mucosa deficiencies.
