BACKGROUND:As a common disease in middle-aged and elderly,osteoarthritis is difficult to cure,and the pathogenesis is not clear.Long non-coding RNA participates in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis through many ways,such as regulating translation,promoting or inhibiting mRNA,and adsorbing miRNAs. OBJECTIVE:To review the types of common long non-coding RNA in osteoarthritis,and the influence of multiple long non-coding RNAs on the pathological factors related to osteoarthritis,to analyze the future application of long non-coding RNAs in osteoarthritis. METHODS:Literature retrieval was conducted in CNKI,WanFang Data,VIP database,PubMed,Web of Science and Sciencedirect databases,using the search terms of"osteoarthritis,degenerative joint disease,degenerative arthritis,OA,LncRNA,long non-coding RNA,long noncoding RNA,long intergenic non-coding RNA"in Chinese and English.All relevant literature published from 1976 and May 2024 was retrieved.After literature screening,induction,analysis and summary,93 articles were finally included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:This review collected 25 long non-coding RNAs that are well studied with osteoarthritis.Long non-coding RNAs,as a molecular sponge for miRNA,are competing endogenous RNAs to competitively adsorb miRNAs and then affect downstream targets.Long non-coding RNAs can regulate physiopathological processes such as chondrocyte apoptosis and proliferation,cartilage extracellular matrix degradation,and inflammatory responses.Long non-coding RNAs are expected to become a biomarker and potential therapeutic target for the clinical diagnosis and therapeutic prognosis of osteoarthritis,and it may become a new strategy for the clinical treatment of osteoarthritis in the future.

Objective:To investigate the effect of "four-staff co-management" follow-up mode on risk factor control and medium-term prognosis improvement in patients with coronary heart disease after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods:This was a intervention study. Patients with coronary heart disease who were admitted to the Xiamen Cardiovascular Hospital of Xiamen University from June 2021 to January 2022 and successfully discharged after PCI were included. According to the different types of follow-up after discharge, patients were divided into the traditional follow-up group and the "four-staff co-management" follow-up group. The "four-staff co-management" follow-up mode means that specialists, specialist managers in third-level A hospitals and general practitioners and health managers in basic hospitals were jointly responsible for post-discharge follow-up of PCI patients. Baseline clinical data were collected. The primary endpoints were the rate of compliance of coronary heart disease risk factor control at 12 months after surgery, the rate of secondary surgery, and the incidence of mid-term major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE). Unplanned secondary PCI included symptom-driven secondary PCI and asymptomatic secondary PCI. MACCE includes myocardial infarction, hospitalization for heart failure, stroke, major bleeding, all-cause death, and composite endpoints including these events.Results:A total of 2 181 patients were enrolled, including 1 097 patients in the traditional follow-up group and 1 084 patients in the "four-staff co-management" follow-up group. At baseline, there were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, discharge diagnosis, co-existing diseases, echocardiographic indexes, and coronary artery lesions between the two groups (all P>0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups in total PCI stent length, maximum internal diameter of stent, proportion of patients using drug balloon, proportion of patients with a planned second surgery during hospitalization, and discharge with drugs (all P>0.05). Twelve months after PCI, the reduction in HbA1c and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol was greater in the "four-staff co-management " follow-up group than that in the traditional follow-up group (all P<0.05), and the rate of reaching the standard for low-density lipoprotein cholesterol was higher than that in the traditional follow-up group ( P=0.001), but there was no statistical significance between the two groups for blood pressure and blood glucose (all P>0.05). During the follow-up period, the proportion of symptom-driven second operation patients was lower in the "four-staff co-management" follow-up group than that in the traditional follow-up group ( P<0.001), and there was no significant difference in the proportion of asymptomatic second operation patients between the two groups ( P=0.191). The proportion of hospitalized patients with heart failure in the "four-staff co-management" follow-up group was lower than that in the traditional follow-up group ( P=0.029), and there was no significant difference in the proportion of myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, cerebral hemorrhage, massive hemorrhage, death and complex endpoint events between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The "four-staff co-management" follow-up mode can effectively improve the control of risk factors and medium-term prognosis in patients with coronary heart disease after PCI.

Objective:Exploring the association between Life's Crucial 9 (LC9) and the risk of thyroid dysfunction (TD), as well as its potential predictive capacity.Methods:A total of 247 600 TD-free participants from the UK Biobank were enrolled in the study. The LC9 score was divided into three CVH groups: low (0-), medium (50-), and high (80-100). Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to calculate the HRs and 95% CIs of the risk of TD with LC9 CVH status. Calculate Harrell's concordance index ( C-index), net reclassification improvement (NRI), and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) to evaluate the predictive ability of the LC9 score and Life's Essential 8 (LE8) score. Results:During a median follow-up of 12.3 years, 5 515, 911, and 4 869 new cases of TD, hyperthyroidism, and hypothyroidism were documented, respectively. Participants with a high LE8 CVH group had 57.00% ( HR=0.43, 95% CI: 0.38-0.49), 55.00% ( HR=0.45, 95% CI: 0.34-0.60), and 58.00% ( HR=0.42, 95% CI: 0.37-0.47) lower risk of TD, hyperthyroidism, and hypothyroidism, respectively, than those with low CVH group. Compared with the LE8 score, the improvement in C-index for the LC9 score predicted TD risk was 0.004 (95% CI: 0.001-0.007), the NRI was 0.101 (95% CI: 0.021-0.103), and the IDI was 0.001 (95% CI: 0.000-0.001). Conclusions:The better CVH status, defined by LC9, was associated with a lower risk of TD. Compared to the LE8 score, the LC9 score demonstrated a significant enhancement in both risk discrimination and reclassification capability for TD risk.

Objective:To evaluate the accuracy and safety profile of a novel cuboid orientation-guided frontal horn ventriculostomy technique in patients with large hemispheric infarction (LHI).Methods:It was conducted a retrospective cohort study of 48 consecutive LHI patients who underwent the innovative ventriculostomy procedure between time period. Primary outcomes included procedural accuracy (success rates, catheter positioning) and safety indicators (complication rates).Results:All the punctured ventricles were small or of normal size. The success rate of puncture was 100%, the success rate of one-time puncture was 87% (42/48), and the average number of puncture was 1.13 times per case. The ratio of well-positioned tube heads was 87.5% (42/48). The actual angle of the inward deviation of the puncture ranged from -2o to 5o, with an average of 0o±0.3o. The depth of puncture was 7.0-8.0 cm ( 7.3±0.3) cm. The incidence of bleeding around the puncture path was 1.3% (2/48 ) and no massive bleeding occurred. At the 6-month follow-up, one case (2.94%) among the 34 survivors had epilepsy.Conclusions:The cuboid orientation-guided frontal horn ventriculostomy technique demonstrates exceptional procedural accuracy and an excellent safety profile in LHI patients, with high first-pass success rates (87.5%) and minimal complications (4.2% minor hemorrhage). These findings support its clinical adoption for this patient population.

Objective:To investigate the clinical application value of a novel filter's retraction hook capture technique of pull-assisted method for the endovascular retrieval of conical inferior vena cava (IVC) filters whose hook attached to the wall.Methods:From January 2020 to December 2024, patients with conical filters whose hook attached to the wall admitted at Beijing Jishuitan Hospital were enrolled consecutively.Results:A total of 46 patients underwent filter retrieval using filter's retraction hook capture technique of pull-assisted method. Among these patients, 39 cases (84.8%) were successful in filter retrieval, with the penetration distance of cranial anchor vertex of 3.3(2.5, 4.4) mm, and 13 (33.3%) filters were deformed. The other 7 cases were unsuccessful, with a penetration distance of cranial anchor vertex of 5.0 (4.3, 5.0) mm, and 6 (85.7%) filters were deformed. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups ( P<0.05). One case (2.2%) had IVC injury, one case (2.2%) experienced filter fracture, and no symptomatic pulmonary embolism occurred. Logistic regression analysis showed that filter deformation was an independent dangerous factor for filter's retraction. Conclusions:Filter's retraction hook capture technique of pull-assisted method is effective in removing conical filters whose hook attached to the wall, with no symptomatic PE occurring. This method can be considered as a new adjuvant technique for filter retrieval.
