BACKGROUND:Arthroscopic anchor repair has become the main treatment method for rotator cuff tears at present.Among them,the insertion status of the anchor is a key factor in the success or failure of the operation.However,currently,the impact of the insertion depth of the anchor on the stress of the bone tunnel and the anchor under different bone density conditions remains unclear.OBJECTIVE:To explore the stress distribution of the bone tunnel and the anchor when the insertion depth of the anchor varies under different bone density conditions by using three-dimensional finite element analysis technology.METHODS:The CT image data of the humerus of volunteers were collected,and the models of the humerus and the anchor were constructed by using Mimics,3-Matic,and Solidworks software.In 3-Matic,holes with distances of 0,2,4,6,and 8 mm from the surface of the humerus were respectively created at the same position of the humerus and assembled with the anchor.In Mimics,values were assigned based on the CT gray value to obtain a model with normal bone mass(T value ≥-1.0).The parameters were changed to construct models with reduced bone mass(-2.5＜T value＜-1.0)and osteoporosis(T value＜-2.5).In each model,a 70 N pulling force was applied to the anchor along the direction tangent to the inner edge of the bone tunnel.The stress distribution and magnitude of the bone tunnel and the anchor when inserted at different depths under different bone density conditions were observed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)When the insertion depth was the same,as the bone density decreased,the maximum equivalent stress of the anchor increased,while the maximum equivalent stress of the bone tunnel decreased.(2)When the bone density was the same,as the insertion depth of the anchor increased,the maximum equivalent stress of the anchor decreased.When the insertion depth was 4 mm,the stress of the bone tunnel was the smallest and the distribution was relatively uniform.The stress of the anchor was mainly distributed around the lower anchor hole and the proximal thread,and the stress of the bone tunnel was mainly at the part in contact with the proximal thread.The increase in the insertion depth would change the uniformity and pattern of the stress distribution,while the bone density had a relatively small impact on the stress distribution pattern.(3)It is concluded that the bone density of the humerus is crucial for the anchor repair of rotator cuff tears.It is recommended that clinicians measure the bone density of the greater tuberosity of the humerus before the operation.Excessive insertion depth of the anchor does not significantly increase its stability.Clinicians can conduct personalized preoperative assessments by using the finite element analysis method in combination with the actual situation of patients to achieve the best surgical results.

The oocyte， as the origin of life， provides half the chromosomes to the embryo and supplies the proteins， substrates， energy， and other support necessary for embryonic development. It is the decisive factor determining the embryo's developmental potential. Infertility caused by reproductive endocrine diseases targets the oocyte as the final target cell. Improving oocyte quality represents a key and difficult point in the field of modern reproductive medicine. The decline of oocyte quality is related to meiosis abnormalities， DNA damage， mitochondrial dysfunction， oxidative stress， and other mechanisms. For oocyte quality problems， there is no unified international guideline to recommend drugs. Because the drug intervention research on oocytes involves strict clinical ethical restrictions， the current relevant research only stays in the animal and in vitro experimental stage and has not yet been applied to the clinic. Traditional Chinese medicine compound formula has a multi-target and multi-pathway regulation mechanism and is widely used in clinics. More and more research began to pay attention to the potential mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine compound formulas in improving oocyte quality. Traditional Chinese medicine compound formula has the advantages of multi-target and multi-channel synergy as well as better safety， individualization， and conformity to clinical ethics in improving oocyte quality. This article systematically reviewed the research progress on traditional Chinese medicine compound formula interventions for oocyte quality， aiming to summarize existing findings and provide recommendations to improve oocyte quality and optimize the clinical diagnosis and treatment of female infertility within traditional Chinese medicine.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Sanet Vision Integrator (SVI)-based visuomotor integration training on the severity of neglect symptoms, upper limb motor function and activities of daily living (ADL) in patients with post-stroke unilateral spatial neglect (USN). MethodsFrom July, 2023 to September, 2025, 41 patients with post-stroke USN in Beijing Bo'ai Hospital were enrolled and randomly assigned to control group (n = 20) and experimental group (n = 21). Both groups received conventional rehabilitation and visual scanning training, while the experimental group received supplementary SVI-based visuomotor integration training, including saccadic, rotation and hand-eye coordination training, for eight weeks. They were assessed with Chinese Behavioral Inattention Test-Hong Kong version (CBIT-HK), Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremities (FMA-UE) and modified Barthel Index (MBI) before and after treatment. ResultsAfter treatment, all the scores significantly improved in both groups (|t| > 4.004, P < 0.001), and the total scores of CBIT-HK and the core visual search sub-items (star cancellation, line crossing and letter cancellation), FMA-UE and MBI were better in the experimental group than in the control group (t > 2.096, P < 0.05). ConclusionSVI-based visuomotor training can effectively alleviate the USN symptoms, broaden the span of visual attention, facilitate the functional recovery of the affected upper extremity, and improve ADL in patients after stroke.

BACKGROUND:Osteoblasts are the main cell types responsible for bone formation and remodeling,and the normal performance of their function is precisely regulated by various signaling pathways.Among them,the bone morphogenetic protein and Wnt signaling pathways play a key role in osteogenesis. OBJECTIVE:To review the role of bone morphogenetic protein/Wnt signaling pathway in the regulation of osteoblast function and analyze its changes in different physiological and pathological conditions in order to further reveal the molecular mechanism of bone formation and remodeling. METHODS:The Chinese and English search terms"BMP signaling pathway,Wnt signaling pathway,and osteogenesis"were searched in CNKI,Wanfang,and PubMed databases for original researches published from the inception to June 2023.Totally 61 articles were finally selected for analysis and summary.Using the method of the literature review,the studies of the bone morphogenetic protein/Wnt signaling pathway in regulating osteogenesis were sorted out and analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Bone morphogenetic protein and Wnt signaling pathways play important roles in the differentiation,proliferation,and maturation of osteoblasts.Bone morphogenetic protein signaling pathway mainly regulates the expression of osteogenesis-related genes through the activation of Smad protein.Smad protein enters the nucleus and regulates the expression of genes related to osteogenesis.Different Wnt signaling pathway from bone morphogenetic protein mainly depends on the activation of β-catenin to exert its biological effects.(2)The regulatory effect of bone morphogenetic protein/Wnt signaling pathway will be affected by many factors in different physiological and pathological states.Growth factors,hormones,and mechanical stress can affect the activity of bone morphogenetic protein/Wnt signaling pathway to some extent.(3)Bone morphogenetic protein/Wnt signaling pathway interacts with other signaling pathways in the regulation of osteogenesis,and they together constitute a complex regulatory network.(4)Chinese medicine and natural compounds can promote bone health by regulating signaling pathways,providing new possibilities for treating bone diseases.(5)Future studies can further explore the interaction of bone morphogenetic protein/Wnt signaling pathway and other signaling pathways and its changes in different physiological and pathological conditions,resolve the key nodes and regulation mechanism in the complex network,to provide more precise targets for the treatment of bone-related diseases,and also provide new ideas to reveal the molecular mechanism of bone formation and remodeling.

ObjectiveTo understand the status of parasitic infection in the food sold on market in Qingpu District of Shanghai, and to provide an evidence for the development of prevention and control strategies for parasitic infection applicable to Qingpu District. MethodsAquatic products, meat products and other foodstuffs sold on online shops, at farm product markets, supermarkets/foodstores and restaurants were sampled in Qingpu District, Shanghai, during 2015‒2023, based on the administrative division of Qingpu District. The parasitic infection in the food samples were examined using pressing method and digestion for detecting metacercariae in freshwater products and pickled products, using dissection microscopy for Anisakis larvae in seawater products, Taenia cysticercus and Trichinella encysted larvae in meat products. ResultsA total of 1 079 samples of food products were examined during 2015‒2023, with a total parasite infection rate of 13.44%. The total parasite infection rate of freshwater fish products was 3.40% (16/471), and the difference of parasite infection rates between different freshwater fish species was statistically significant (χ²=229.609, P=0.001). The total infection rate of Clonorchis sinensis was 3.18% (15/471), which had been detected in Pseudorasbora parva, Cyprinidae rhodeus, and Carassius auratus, with a positive rate of 77.78% (7/9), 50.00% (5/10) and 3.90% (3/77), respectively. Metorchis orientalis was detected in in Pseudorasbora parva, with a positive rate of 33.33% (3/9). The positive rate of Gnathostoma spinigerum (third-stage larvae) was 0.81%. Paragonimus metacercariae were not detected in the freshwater shrimps and crabs. The infection rate of seawater fish products was 26.46%. The difference of parasite infection rate in seawater fishes was statistically significant (χ²=109.181, P=0.001). A total of 53 pork and beef samples were tested, none was detected with Trichinella larva cysts, Taenia solium metacercariae, and Taenia saginata metacercariae. The total infection rate of pickled yellow mud snail products was 58.11% (43/74). Paragonimus metacercariae was not detected in any of the pickled aquatic product samples. ConclusionThere are different degrees of parasitic infection in freshwater products, seawater products and pickled aquatic products in Qingpu District of Shanghai. The risk of parasite infection from raw or undercooked foods is high. Health education on healthy dietary practices such as throughly cooked food should be strengthened for local residents.

Objective:To investigate affinity of monoclonal antibody(MAb)of different cardiac troponinⅠ(cTnⅠ)epi-topes to cTnⅠ-troponin C(cTnⅠ-TnC)antigen,and to screen novel cTnⅠ-specific antibodies for clinical detection kit development.Methods:Based on technology platform of microarray chemiluminescence immunoassay,cTnⅠ-TnC antigen spot sample hard matrix chip was used,mouse derived cTnⅠ MAb was used as antibody to be detected,HRP-sheep-anti-mouse-IgG was used as antibody to detect,and experimental conditions were optimized for anti-origin solution,antigen spot sample concentration and antibody to be detected concentration.Affinity of cTnⅠ MAb with different antigenic epitopes to cTnⅠ-TnC was detected by competition method.Graded concentrations of cTnⅠ-TnC were added to experimental group,and diluents of equal volume were added to control group.Reaction signals of different cTnⅠ MAb were detected and affinity constants were calculated.Results:Antigen spot sample liquid was P105,antigen spot sample concentration was 0.1 mg/ml,and antibody concentration to be detected was 80 ng/ml were optimal experi-mental conditions.20c6cc and 7B9cc MAb containing TnC antibodies had the best affinity,and 20c6cc MAb reached 3.18×106 L/mol.cTnⅠ MAb located at C-end of peptide chain in a.a.r 130～145,169～178 and 190～196 regions showed good affinity,among which MAb 625(a.a.r 169～178)was 6.37×105 L/mol,showing the strongest affinity among cTnⅠ MAb.Conclusion:MAb has good affinity with cTnⅠ-TnC antigen at C-end of cTnⅠ peptide chain a.a.r 130～145,169～178,190～196 and TnC region.Designing a new type of cTnⅠ complement antibody targeting this region can be a new way to solve negative interference of autoantibody and peptide proteolysis.

Objective:To investigate the effects of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) on myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) in elderly patients with hip fracture.Methods:A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted on 78 elderly patients with hip fracture admitted to the Seventh Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital between October 2023 and September 2024. The patients were divided into RIPC group and non-RIPC group using a random number table. They were treated with closed reduction internal fixation, open reduction internal fixation, or hip arthroplasty for hip fracture under regional anesthesia. The RIPC group received RIPC intervention on the day before surgery and after entering the operating room on the day of surgery (3 cycles of 5-minute upper limb exsanguination followed by 5-minute reperfusion using an inflatable tourniquet cuff). The non-RIPC group received the same perioperative management as the RIPC group except RIPC. Plasma high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) concentrations were measured at admission, immediately after surgery, on the morning of the first postoperative day, and on the morning of the third postoperative day and MINS incidence was calculated based on the hs-cTnI concentrations. The incidence of MINS within 3 days postoperatively and the intraoperative complications were compared in the overall cohort and in age-stratified groups (<80 years, ≥80 years). The local adverse reactions at the RIPC application sites were observed within 3 days after surgery.Results:Among the 78 elderly patients with hip fracture, including 21 males and 57 females, aged 60-99 years [79.5(70.0, 87.0)years], 40 were assigned to the RIPC group and 38 to the non-RIPC group. No significant difference was found in the general data of the two groups. There was no significant difference in the overall MINS incidence between the two groups ( P>0.05). In the patients aged <80 years, no MINS incidence was found (0/21) in the RIPC group, compared with 22% (4/18) in the non-RIPC group ( P<0.05), while in the patients aged ≥80 years, no significant difference in MINS incidence was observed between the two groups ( P>0.05). There were no significant differences in intraoperative complication rates in the overall cohort, patients aged <80 years, or patients aged ≥80 years ( P>0.05). None of the patients had local adverse reactions at the RIPC application sites. Conclusion:For elderly patients with hip fracture who received regional anesthesia, RIPC can significantly reduce the incidence of MINS in patients aged <80 years, but exerts no significant effect on MINS incidence in the overall cohort or in patients aged ≥80 years.
