Objective To explore the functional impact of A-to-I editing in the seed region of miR-411 during post-myocardial infarction (MI) fibrosis and elucidate its therapeutic potential. Methods Integrating GEO database with myocardial RNA-seq data from MI mouse models, we identified dynamic A-to-I RNA editing in small noncoding RNAs across MI progression (1 day to 8 weeks post-MI). Four miRNAs exhibited differential editing rates between MI and controls, with miR-411 showing progressive editing enhancement at seed region position 4 (P<0.01). This editing event was validated in both murine MI models and human heart failure specimens. Results The A-to-I editing ratio change of the 4th nucleotide in the seed region of miR-411 mainly occurs in cardiac fibroblasts rather than cardiomyocytes, and the editing at this site depends on ADAR2 rather than ADAR1. Edited miR-411 (ED-miR-411) diverged from wild-type miR-411 (WT-miR-411) in suppressing collagen-related pathways (extracellular matrix [ECM]-receptor interaction, collagen-containing ECM, ECM organization; P<0.01) in cardiac fibroblasts. Mechanistically, dual-luciferase assays confirmed ED-miR-411 directly targeted the 3′UTR and suppressed expression of type Ⅱ transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta receptor (TGFBR2) and CD44, which were key drivers of TGF-β-mediated fibroblast activation. ED-miR-411 overexpression blunted TGF-β-induced collagen synthesis and myofibroblast proliferation (P<0.05). In vivo, intramyocardial delivery of ED-miR-411 mimics at 1 week post-MI reduced fibrosis by 40% and improved ejection fraction by 15% (P<0.01 vs controls), whereas WT-miR-411 showed no therapeutic effect. Conclusions A-to-I editing of miR-411 emerges as an endogenous anti-fibrotic mechanism by repressing TGFBR2 and CD44, thereby disrupting TGF-β signaling and ECM dysregulation. Our findings highlight ED-miR-411 as a novel RNA-based therapeutic candidate to mitigate post-infarction cardiac remodeling.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of maximum tumor diameter and the peripheral blood neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) before radiotherapy for the occurrence of esophageal fistula after radiotherapy in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) .Methods:A total of 98 patients with ESCC who underwent radiotherapy in Hefei Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Sciences from February 2017 to February 2021 were selected, and the patients were divided into esophageal fistula group (13 cases) and no esophageal fistula group (85 cases) according to whether esophageal fistula occurred during the follow-up process. The prognostic nutritional index (PNI) , NLR, and systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) were calculated. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of esophageal fistula, and the predictive value of each indicator was evaluated by using the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:There were no statistically significant differences in age, smoking history, diabetes mellitus history, gender, concurrent chemotherapy and alcohol history between the esophageal fistula group and the no esophageal fistula group (all P>0.05) , while there were statistically significant differences in PNI ( t=2.24, P=0.041) , NLR ( t=3.75, P=0.001) , SIRI ( t=2.68, P=0.015) . Univariate analysis showed that tumor length ( OR=1.16, 95% CI: 1.01-1.35, P=0.043) , maximum tumor diameter ( OR=1.63, 95% CI: 1.11-2.39, P=0.012) , PNI ( OR=0.83, 95% CI: 0.71-0.98, P=0.023) , NLR ( OR=1.94, 95% CI: 1.20-3.12, P=0.007) and SIRI ( OR=1.82, 95% CI: 1.03-3.24, P=0.041) were related to esophageal fistula. Multivariate analysis showed that maximum tumor diameter ( OR=2.17, 95% CI: 1.02-4.94, P=0.033) and NLR ( OR=2.40, 95% CI: 1.89-6.59, P=0.018) were independent influencing factors for the development of esophageal fistula in patients with ESCC after radiotherapy. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of maximum tumor diameter before radiotherapy combined with NLR for predicting esophageal fistula in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after radiotherapy was 0.83 (95% CI: 0.74-0.90) , which was greater than that of maximum tumor diameter before radiotherapy (0.71, 95% CI: 0.63-0.81, Z=1.80, P=0.039) and NLR (0.74, 95% CI: 0.67-0.85, Z=1.64, P=0.046) alone. Conclusions:The maximum tumor diameter before radiotherapy and NLR are closely related to the occurrence of esophageal fistula in ESCC after radiotherapy, and these factors are expected to serve as key predictors of the occurrence of esophageal fistula.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of TINAVI orthopaedic robot-assisted pedicle screw placement and free-hand pedicle screw placement in the treatment of lumbar spondylolysis in adolescents.Methods:The clinical data of 65 adolescents with lumbar spondylolysis who underwent surgery in Honghui Hospital, Xi′an Jiaotong University from January 2021 to December 2022 were analyzed retrospectively, including 20 males and 45 females with an age of (21.5 ± 4.3) years. The distribution of spondylolysis included 2 cases of L 3, 13 cases of L 4, 50 cases of L 5. According to the Meyerding classification of spondylolisthesis degree, there were 52 cases of grade Ⅰ, 5 cases of grade Ⅱ and 8 cases without spondylolisthesis, all of which were complicated with intractable back pain. All patients were treated with double segmental pedicle screw reduction and autogenous iliac bone graft. According to different screw placement methods, they were divided into TINAVI orthopedic robot-assisted screw placement group (robot group, 32 cases) and free-hand screw placement group (free-hand group, 33 cases). CT was re-examined after operation. The satisfactory rate of pedicle screw placement and cortical penetration rate were calculated according to Neo standard, and the superior articular process invasion rate of screw was calculated by Babu standard. The operation time, intra-operative blood loss, post-operative drainage, hospital stay, satisfactory rate of screw placement, cortical puncture rate and superior articular process invasion rate were compared between the two groups, and the operative complications and bony fusion time of isthmus were recorded. The visual analogue score (VAS) of lumbar pain, the score of Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) and the score of Oswestry dysfunction (ODI) were compared between the two groups before operation, 1 month after operation and 1 year after operation. Results:There was no significant difference in preoperative general data between the two groups ( P>0.05). All patients completed the operation successfully, anatomical reduction was achieved in patients with spondylolisthesis. No serious operative complications such as nerve and vascular injury occurred during surgery. The operation time in the robot group was longer than that in the free-hand group: (82.6 ± 6.8) min vs. (60.5 ± 7.1) min. There was no significant difference in intra-operative blood loss, post-operative drainage and hospital stay between the two groups ( P>0.05). A total of 128 screws were placed in the robot group, and 132 screws were placed in the freehand group. There were significant differences in the satisfaction rate of screw insertion, cortical penetration rate and articular process invasion rate between the two groups: 96.9%(124/128) vs. 90.9%(120/132), 3.1%(4/128) vs. 9.1%(12/132), 2.3%(3/128) vs. 7.6%(10/132) ( P<0.05). One year after surgery, the isthmus of all patients fused well, the reduction was not lost, the intervertebral disc had no degeneration, and the instrumentation was removed. The VAS, JOA score and ODI score of the two groups at 1 month and 1 year after operation were significantly better than those before operation ( P<0.05). The VAS of the robot group was lower than that of the free-hand group at 1 month and 1 year after operation: (1.6 ± 0.8) points vs. (2.7 ± 0.9) points, (0.3 ± 0.1) points vs. (1.5 ± 0.2) points, the difference is statistically significant ( P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in JOA score and ODI score between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:TINAVI orthopaedic robot assisted screw placement and free-hand screw placement can both effectively treat lumbar spondylolysis in adolescents. Compared with free-hand screw placement, TINAVI orthopedic robot assisted screw placement can further improve the accuracy and improve patients′ lumbodorsal pain.

Objective:To evaluate the guiding value of ultrasound-guided selective nerve root block in the surgical treatment of multilevel lumbar degeneration.Methods:Retrospective case-control study was used. Clinical data of 47 patients with multi-level lumbar degeneration who underwent decompression surgery in Honghui Hospital, Xi′an Jiaotong University from January 2019 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into nerve root block group ( n=22)and non-nerve root block group( n=25) according to whether ultrasound-guided selective nerve root block was performed before decompression surgery. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, number of decompression laminae, postoperative drainage volume and length of stay of the two groups were recorded and compared. The visual analogue scale of low back pain, the visual analogue scale (VAS) of leg pain, the Japanese orthopaedic association (JOA) score and Oswestry disability index (ODI) score were all compared before surgery and during follow-up between the two groups. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as mean±standard deviation( ± s), and the comparison between groups was conducted using the paired t-test. Chi-square test was used for counting data. Results:All 47 patients successfully completed the operation without any serious complications such as neurovascular injury. All patients were followed up for (27.6±7.5)months. In the nerve root block group, the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, number of decompression laminae, postoperative drainage volume and hospital stay were (90.5±12.6) min, (110.5±15.8) mL, 1.2±0.8, (85.6±15.8) mL, (6.2±2.8) d, respectively. In the non-root block group, they were (190.6±25.5) min, (450.5±24.8) mL, 3.8±1.6, (210.5±16.8) mL, (9.5±2.2) d, respectively. The above indexes in the nerve root closure group were less than those in the non-root closure group, and the difference was significant between the two groups ( P< 0.05). The scores of VAS of low back pain and leg pain, JOA and ODI in both groups were significantly improved after surgery and during the follow-up period when compared with those of pre-operation ( P< 0.05). The VAS scores of low back pain on the 3rd day, 6 months after operation and at the last follow-up in the nerve block group were 3.2±1.4, 1.4±0.8, 0.5±0.2, the JOA scores were 15.8±4.3, 21.3±5.6, 25.6±1.4, and the ODI scores were 50.6±10.3, 22.8±7.8, 16.8±4.2, respectively. The VAS scores of low back pain on the 3rd day, 6 months after operation and at the last follow-up in the non-nerve block group were 5.1±1.8, 3.4±1.2, 1.8±0.5, the JOA scores were 14.1±4.8, 20.5±3.2, 24.2±1.8, and the ODI scores were 60.5±9.8, 31.6±8.2 and 21.3±5.5, respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05). However, there was no statistical difference in the VAS scores of leg pain between the two groups after surgery and during follow-up ( P>0.05). At the last follow-up, the internal fixation position of the two groups was good, no loosening and displacement, and bone graft fusion was good. Conclusion:For patients with multi-level lumbar degeneration, ultrasound-guided selective nerve root block before surgery can identify the responsible segment, and selective decompression and fusion based on this can effectively reduce surgical trauma, while improving patients′ back and leg pain and physical function, which has important surgical guidance value.

Objective:To explore the efficacy of secondary targeted percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) for the treatment of refracture of injured vertebrae after vertebral augmentation for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF).Methods:A retrospective case series study was performed on the clinical data of 25 patients with refracture of injured vertebrae after vertebral augmentation for OVCF admitted to Honghui Hospital, Xi′an Jiaotong University from January 2019 to January 2022, including 10 males and 15 females, aged 62-86 years [(73.8±5.2)years]. The fractured segments involved T 10 in 1 patient, T 11 in 2, T 12 in 10, L 1 in 10 and L 2 in 2. All the patients were treated with secondary targeted PVP. The operation time and the amount of bone cement injected were recorded. The visual analogue scale (VAS) of lower back, Oswestry disability index (ODI), vertebral body index (VBI) and kyphotic angle (KA) were compared before surgery, at 1 day, 6 months after surgery and at the last follow-up. Odom criteria were used to evaluate the efficacy of the surgical procedure at the last follow-up. The intraoperative bone cement leakage and new vertebrae fracture during follow-up were observed. Results:All the patients were followed up for 23-59 months [(36.8±7.6)months]. The operation time was 35-60 minutes [(42.6±5.2)minutes], with the amount of bone cement injected for 3-5 ml [(3.6±0.8)ml]. The VAS scores of lower back at 1 day, 6 months after surgery and at the last follow-up were 3.1(2.0, 4.0)points, 1.7(1.0, 2.0)points and 0.6(0.0, 1.0)points respectively, significantly lower than 7.6(7.0, 9.0)points before surgery ( P<0.01), and a statistically singnificant decrease was found over follow-up time ( P<0.01). The ODI values at 1 day, 6 months after surgery and at the last follow-up were (49.5±5.9)%, (28.5±4.6)% and (19.2±4.8)% respectively, significantly lower than (78.8±6.8)% before surgery ( P<0.01), and a statistically singnificant decrease was found over follow-up time ( P<0.01). The VBI values at 1 day, 6 months after surgery and at the last follow-up were (76.6±4.5)%, (76.3±4.0)% and (76.1±3.8)% respectively, significantly higher than (58.9±5.8)% before surgery ( P<0.01), while there were no significant differences among those at 1 day, 6 months after surgery and at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). The KA values at 1 day, 6 months after surgery and at the last follow-up were (12.4±2.7)°, (12.6±2.5)° and (12.8±2.9)° respectively, significantly lower than (20.8±3.6)° before surgery ( P<0.01), while there were no significant differences among those at 1 day, 6 months after surgery and at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). According to the Odom criteria, 20 patients were rated excellent and 5 good at the last follow-up, with an excellent and good rate of 100%. Intraoperative asymptomatic bone cement leakage occurred in 3 patients (12%), including 2 with intervertebral leakage and 1 with lateral vertebral leakage. No adjacent vertebral body or other vertebral fracture was observed during the follow-up. Conclusions:For patients with refracture of injured vertebrae after vertebral augmentation for OVCF, the secondary targeted PVP has advantages of attenuation of the lower back pain, improvement of the quality of life, restoration of the height of refractured vertebrae, correction of the local kyphosis, and a low incidence of complications.

Objective:To explore the efficacy of consolidation chemotherapy after radical radiotherapy and chemotherapy in stage Ⅲ-ⅣA esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients in the real world.Methods:The clinical data of 139 patients with stage Ⅲ-ⅣA ESCC who underwent radical radiotherapy and chemotherapy from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2022 in Hefei Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Sciences were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into a control group ( n=85) and a consolidation chemotherapy group ( n=54) based on whether they underwent consolidation chemotherapy after radical radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) between the two groups were compared. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curves and log-rank tests were conducted. The Cox proportional risk model was used for univariate and multivariate analysis. Results:The ORR of the control group and the consolidation chemotherapy group were 44.71% (38/85) and 66.67% (36/54), respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=5.54, P=0.018) ; the DCR were 70.59% (60/85) and 87.04% (47/54), respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=5.04, P=0.025). The median PFS of the two groups of patients were 9.0 and 13.1 months, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=12.74, P<0.001) ; the median OS were 15.0 and 20.6 months, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=24.75, P<0.001). The median OS of ESCC patients in two subgroups of cT 3-4N 1-3M 0 were 16.0 and 30.8 months, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=23.49, P<0.001). Univariate analysis showed that tumor length ( HR=1.57, 95% CI: 1.04-2.36, P=0.032), objective response ( HR=0.08, 95% CI: 0.04-0.17, P<0.001), and consolidation chemotherapy ( HR=0.32, 95% CI: 0.20-0.51, P<0.001) were all influencing factors for OS in ESCC patients undergoing radical radiotherapy and chemotherapy in stages Ⅲ-ⅣA. Multivariate analysis showed that tumor length ( HR=1.59, 95% CI: 1.05-2.43, P=0.030), objective response ( HR=0.05, 95% CI: 0.02-0.10, P<0.001), and consolidation chemotherapy ( HR=0.22, 95% CI: 0.13-0.36, P<0.001) were all independent influencing factors for OS in stage Ⅲ-ⅣA ESCC patients undergoing radiotherapy and chemotherapy. In terms of safety, the consolidation chemotherapy group experienced 7 adverse reactions mainly gastrointestinal reaction and leukopenia, including 5 cases of grade 1-2 and 2 cases of grade 3-4; 22 cases of adverse reactions occurred in the control group including 16 cases of grade 1-2 and 6 cases of grade 3-4 mainly including neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia and digestive tract reaction. The incidence rates of adverse reactions in the two groups were 12.96% (7/54) and 25.88% (22/85), respectively, with no statistically significant difference ( χ2=3.34, P=0.068) . Conclusion:After radical radiotherapy and chemotherapy, consolidation chemotherapy can significantly improve the prognosis of stage Ⅲ-ⅣA ESCC patients, and the overall adverse reactions are controllable.

Objective:To investigate the perioperative impact of closure of mesenteric fissure in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy.Methods:The prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. The clinical data of 320 patients who underwent laparoscopic right hemicolectomy in 11 medical centers, including The First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University et al, from November 2022 to August 2023 were selected. Based on block randomization, patients were alloca-ted into the mesenteric fissure non-closure group and the mesenteric fissure closure group. Observa-tion indicators: (1) grouping of the enrolled patients; (2) intraoperative conditions; (3) postopera-tive conditions. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3) and com-parison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were represen-ted as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher's exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the rank sum test. Comparison of visual analog scores was analyzed using generalized estimating equations. Results:(1) Grouping of the enrolled patients. A total of 320 patients with colon cancer were screened for eligibility, including 156 males and 164 females, aged 68(59,73)years. All the 320 patients were allocated into the mesenteric fissure non-closure group with 164 cases and the mesenteric fissure closure group with 156 cases. There was no significant difference in the age, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologist score, maximum tumor diameter, anastomosis location, anastomosis method, surgical approach, range of lymph node dissection, tumor staging between the two groups ( P>0.05) and there was a significant difference in the sex between them ( P<0.05). (2) Intraoperative conditions. There was no significant difference between the mesenteric fissure closure group and the mesenteric fissure non-closure group in the volume of intraoperative blood loss, operation time, conversion to laparotomy, intraoperative complication ( P>0.05). Three patients in the mesenteric fissure non-closure group were converted to laparotomy. One patient in the mesenteric fissure closure group was converted to laparotomy, and 2 cases with intraoperative complication were mesenteric hematoma. (3) Postoperative conditions. There was no significant difference between the mesenteric fissure non-closure group and the mesenteric fissure closure group in the overall postoperative complications ( χ2=0.28, P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the occurrence of postoperative intestinal obstruction, abdominal distension, ascites, pleural effusion, gastric paralysis, anastomotic bleeding, anastomotic leakage, or surgical wound infection between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the reoperation, postoperative gastric tube replacement. There was no significant differ-ence in time to postoperative first flatus, time to postoperative initial liquid food intake, time to post-operative resumption of bowel movements, duration of postoperative hospital stay, total hospital expenses between the two groups ( Z=-0.01, 0.43, 1.04, -0.54, -0.36, P>0.05). One patient in the mesenteric fissure non-closure group received reoperation. No perioperative internal hernia or death occurred in either group. The visual analog score decreased with time in both groups. There was no significant difference in the visual analog score between the mesenteric fissure closure group and the mesenteric fissure non-closure group [ β=-0.20(-0.53,0.13), P>0.05]. Conclusion:Compared with closure of mesenteric fissure, non-closure of mesenteric fissure during laparoscopic right hemi-colectomy dose not increase perioperative complications or postoperative management risk.
