OBJECTIVE: To review the research progress on the lower limb biomechanical characteristics of patients with discoid lateral meniscus (DLM) injury after surgery. METHODS: By searching relevant domestic and international research literature on DLM, the postoperative characteristics of knee joint movement biomechanics, tibiofemoral joint stress distribution, lower extremity force line, and patellofemoral joint changes in patients with DLM injury were summarized. RESULTS: Surgical treatment can lead to varying degrees of changes in the lower limb biomechanical characteristics of patients with DLM injury. Specifically, the kinematic biomechanics of the knee joint can significantly improve, but there are still problems such as extension deficits in the affected knee joint. The peak stress of the tibiofemoral joint decreases with the increase of the residual meniscus volume, and the degree of change is closely related to the residual meniscus volume. Preserving a larger volume of the meniscus, especially the anterior horn volume, helps to reduce stress concentration. The lower extremity force line will deviate outward after surgery, and the more meniscus is removed during surgery, the greater the change in the lower extremity force line after surgery. There are conditions such as cartilage degeneration, position and angle changes in the patellofemoral joint after surgery. CONCLUSION The changes in the lower limb biomechanical characteristics after DLM injury are closely related to the choice of surgical methods and rehabilitation programs. However, the mechanisms of biomechanical changes in multiple lower limb joints and individual differences still need to be further studied and clarified.

Trauma can disrupt the body′s internal environment, resulting in organ dysfunction. This may manifest as symptoms such as acute respiratory distress, liver and kidney dysfunction, circulatory disorders and neurological damage. Mitochondrial quality control (MQC), encompassing processes like autophagy, dynamic changes, and biogenesis, plays an essential role in maintaining mitochondrial function. Stress responses following trauma can cause mitochondrial dysfunction and MQC imbalance, thereby exacerbating organ injury. Correcting MQC imbalance can improve organ function. Current researches on MQC in post-traumatic organ dysfunction mainly focuses on imbalance in specific MQC mechanism, lacking a systemic understanding of its incidence and progression. To this end, the authors reviewed the progress in researches on the impact of MQC imbalance on post-traumatic organ dysfunction, aiming to provide insights for clinical treatment.

Objective:Through microscopic and ultrastructural observations,to explore the origin of the cartilage of the anteroposterior pseudocyst.Staging for the auricular pseudocyst according to the different pathological changes and exploring its clinical significance.Methods:48 cases(51 ears)of the auricular pseudocyst were collected as the observation objects(46 males, 2 females, 15-76 years old) and 45 patients(45 ears)chronic suppurative otitis media hospitalized patients who underwent tympanic membrane repair as a normal control group(43 males, 2 females, 12-74 years old).The outer wall of the cyst was surgically resected and the residual auricular cartilage was retained in the control group for HE staining or transmission electron microscopy specimens, and the specimens were observed and analyzed under light microscope and transmission electron microscopy.Results:According to the data of this study, auricular pseudocyst was relatively common in people aged 21-60 years. The disease course of 4 ears was ≤ 10 days,the course of 16 ears was > 10 days yet ≤ 30 days, the course of 20 ears was > 1 month but ≤ 2 months,the course of 6 ears was > 2 months yet ≤ 1 year, the course of 3 ears was > one year but ≤ two years,and the course of 2 ears was > 2 years. The observation of microstructure and ultrastructure of the different course of outer walls of the auricle pseudocyst was shown:due to various causes of cartilage fluid that separated perichondrium and cartilage tissue, when the perichondrium was stimulated, the bone progenitor cells from the quiescence phase came to the activities period. With the extension of the course, the periosteum was thickening gradually, cartilage the bone progenitor cells idifferentiated into chondroblasts, which idifferentiated into chondrocytes last, from native to mature, from thin to thick. It was stable a period of time when the cartilage mature. The outer wall of the cyst was new cartilage, which reflected additional growth. The nucleus of the chondrocytes evolved into nucleolysis, and necrosis, when the lesions was stimulated.The control group had a thin layer of cartilage and periosteum, containing a small amount of osteoprogenitor cells; the cartilage layer was thick, the cartilage cells were small near the periosteum, and the deep cartilage cells were large, all of which were mature chondrocytes.Conclusions:The outer cartilage of auricle pseudocyst is newborn cartilage. The pathological staging is divided into early stage(cartilage formation), middle stage(cartilage maturity) and late stage(cartilage necrosis).This stage can provide a reference for exploring the pathogenesis of pseudocysts of the auricle and formulating surgical treatment principles.

Objective To investigate the effect of knockdown PRTN3 on polarization phenotype and anti-tumor function of macrophages in breast cancer.Methods A mouse monocyte/macrophage cell line(RAW264.7)with knockdown of PRTN3 was constructed.The mRNA and protein levels of PRTN3 were detected by RT-qPCR and flow cytometry.Macrophages were co-cultured with tumor cells,and the polarization phenotypes of macrophages were detected by flow cytometry,and the mRNA levels of polarization and cytokines related genes were detected by RT-qPCR.The tumor phagocytosis and tumor killing ability of macrophages were determined by in vitro phagocytosis assay and tumor killing assay.The effect of macrophages with PRTN3 knockdown on tumor progression and metasta-sis was compared in an orthotopic transplantation model of mouse breast cancer.Results The mRNA and protein levels of PRTN3 in the RAW264.7 cell line with stable knockdown of PRTN3 were significantly decreased(P＜0.01).Knockdown of PRTN3 in RAW264.7 cells upregulated the expression of M1 phenotype-related genes(CD80,CD86,iNOS,IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α)(P＜0.05).After macrophages co-culture with tumor cells,macrophages with knockdown of PRTN3 upregulated the expression of M1 phenotype-related genes(CD80,CD86,iNOS,IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α)(P＜0.01).Knockdown of PRTN3 enhanced the phagocyto-sis(P＜0.05)and tumor killing ability(P＜0.05)of macrophages in vitro.Adoptive transfusion of PRTN3-knockdown macrophages into tumor-bearing mice inhibited the growth of in situ breast cancer and reduced lung metastasis(P＜0.05).Conclusions PRTN3 regulates phenotypic polarization of macrophages,and knockdown of PRTN3 enhances the anti-tumor function of macrophages.

Diabetic nephropathy(DN)ranks as a frequent and serious complication in diabetes mellitus,and it's a key factor in chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease(ESRD),greatly diminishing the life quality of patients.Presently,the conventional treatment approaches for DN mainly involve strict regulation of blood sugar and pressure,in conjunction with the application of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors.While these therapies can slow down the advancement of DN,they are ineffective in stopping its final development into ESRD.Lately,the involvement of the gut-kidney axis in the development and advancement of DN has attracted growing interest.Individuals suffering from DN show changes in the variety of gut microbiota,which are crucial in the development and management of DN due to metabolic interactions with the host.The goal of this analysis is to explore the fundamental processes of gut microbiota's role in DN and explore treatment approaches focusing on gut microbiota,aiming to offer new perspectives for the clinical handling of DN.
