ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Guben Quyu Jiedu prescription in treating nocturnal hypoxemia of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD） combined with Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome （ OSAHS ） （deficiency of lung， spleen and kidney with blood stasis and toxicity）. MethodsThe paper used a forward-looking， random double-blind， placebo-controlled design method to select 96 patients with COPD combined with OSAHS， and their traditional Chinese medicines （TCM） syndrome differentiation was deficiency of lung， spleen and kidney with blood stasis and toxicity. These patients were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group， with 48 cases in each group. Based on conventional Western medicine treatment， the observation group was treated with Guben Quyu Jiedu prescription and the control group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine placebo. Both courses of treatment were 90 days. Then the paper compared the changes in minimum pulse oxygen saturation （SpO₂） during the night， apnea index （AHI）， OSAHS efficacy evaluation， TCM syndrome efficacy evaluation， and TCM symptom score before and after treatment between the two groups. ResultsThere were 5 withdrawals in the observation group and 8 withdrawals in the control group， so 43 cases in the observation group and 40 cases in the control group completed the trial. Compared with the condition before treatment， the minimum SpO₂ during the night and AHI in the observation group were significantly improved at night （P<0.01） and were better than those in the control group （P<0.01）. OSAHS efficacy in the observation group was better than in the control group （χ²=7.085， P<0.05）. In terms of TCM syndrome efficacy， the total effective rate was 81.40% （35/43） in the observation group， significantly higher than that in the control group， which was 15.00% （6/40） （χ²=36.78， P<0.01）. The TCM symptom scores of the two groups were improved compared with the condition before treatment， and the effect of the two groups was similar in the four main symptoms of snoring， choking， lethargy， and cough. However， the observation group was better than the control group in 10 details such as dizziness， headache， chest tightness， chest pain， wheezing， dry mouth， and thirst （P<0.05）. ConclusionUsing Guben Quyu Jiedu prescription combined with conventional Western medicine can treat COPD combined with OSAHS hypoxemia at night （deficiency of lung， spleen and kidney with blood stasis and toxicity）. In this way， the minimum pulse oxygen saturation （SpO₂） of patients， the level of disease control， and the quality of life of patients can be improved， and the clinical symptoms can be relieved.

Sheep pox is widespread worldwide and is the most severe animal pox virus infection. This study aimed to identify the key microRNAs (miRNAs) differentially expressed in the exosomes of sheep poxvirus-infected cells and their target genes and related pathways and provide a theoretical basis for an in-depth understanding of the molecular mechanisms of sheep poxvirus-infected cells. In this study, the differentially expressed miRNAs were verified by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), and the target genes of miRNAs were predicted and analyzed by bioinformatics. The qPCR results showed that the expression trends of oar-miR-21, oar-miR-10b, oar-let-7f, oar-let-7b, and oar-miR-221 were consistent with the sequencing results. The Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes results showed that differentially expressed miRNAs were mainly involved in the immune system processes of the Arf6 downstream pathway. The target genes Reactome pathways were mainly enriched in the RAC1 GTPase cycle, CDC42 GTPase cycle, RHO GTPase cycle, RHOV GTPase cycle, and post-transcriptional silencing of small RNAs. The transcription factors SP4, NKX6-1, MEF2A, SP1, EGR1, and POU2F1 that may be connected to sheep pox virus (SPPV)-infected cells were discovered by transcription factor annotation screening. In conclusion, this study screened for differentially expressed miRNAs in SPPV-infected cells and performed a series of bioinformatic analyses of their target genes to provide a theoretical basis for the molecular mechanism of sheep pox virus infections of cells. The data can be used as basic information in future studies on the defense mechanisms against poxvirus infections.

Objective:To explore the short-term efficacy on 3D printing assisted reconstruction of traumatic digit joint defects using rib and costo-osteochondral autograft.Methods:From August 2022 to July 2023, 7 patients with open digit joint defects had undergone emergency primary debridement and fracture fixation in the Department of Orthopaedics, 988th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force of PLA. Patients with more phalangeal defects that could not be aligned were treated with antibiotic bone cement filling in the emergency surgery. In the second stage surgery, bone cement was removed and transfer of rib cartilage graft was performed to reconstruct the digit joint defect. According to a 1∶1 3D printed hand templates, rib cartilage grafts were crafted to the shape of digit joints, and then spliced together the digit joints and bone defects for fixation. Follow-up X-ray examinations were taken and assessment of the healing status of rib and fractures of phalangeal and metacarpophalangeal bones were carried out according to the Paley fracture healing score. At the outpatient follow-up, assessment of transferred joint movement and evaluation of upper limb function were conducted according to the Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain scores were evaluated from the affected digits and donor sites.Results:After reconstructive surgery, all 7 patients had primary healing of the wounds of hand. One patient had fat liquefaction at the donor site, and the rest had primary donor site healing. One patient received further surgery for extensor tendon repair after rib cartilage grafting due to the digital extensor tendon injury. All 7 patients were included in postoperative follow-up for 6-11 months, with an average of 9 months. All patients had excellent fracture healing according to the Paley fracture healing score. At the final follow-up, the extension and flexion of the digit joints were found at 40°-80° (average 56.2°) for proximal interphalangeal joints (4 patients), and 10° in extension and 85° in flexion for metacarpophalangeal joint (1 patient). The range of motion of the thumb interphalangeal joint (2 patients) was 20°-35° (average 27.5°). Hand function was assessed according to Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association and it was found that 3 patients were in excellent, 3 in good and 1 in fair.Conclusion:This study focused on the treatment of traumatic digit joint defects by transfer of individually crafted rib cartilages in reconstruction of the defected digit joint. It significantly improves the appearance and function of the defected digit joints, especially suitable for the irregular defects of phalangeal bones.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Pulsed electromagnetic field has a definite curative effect on fracture healing.It can be used in the treatment of osteomyelitis by antibacterial,bactericidal,anti-inflammatory and promoting bone healing,and can inhibit osteoporosis and its progress.In addition,the treatment of early osteoarthritis,femoral head necrosis and postoperative rehabilitation of late joint replacement through various ways can become a treatment for orthopedic diseases.However,the therapeutic mechanism of the pulsed electromagnetic field for a variety of orthopedic diseases is still unclear,and most of the research is still in the primary stage.In the future,it is still necessary to obtain more reliable evidence from high-quality research and clinical trials to provide a more perfect basis for the clinical treatment of orthopedic diseases.

OBJECTIVE To synthesize a polymer PEI-ss-PEG2000-DSPE containing disulfide bond and to prepare as cationic micelle(P-ss-PD) based on branched polyethyleneimine(PEI). To investigate the ability of P-ss-PD micelle to reduce cytotoxicity and improve the transfection efficiency of antisense oligonucleotide(ASO) in human breast cancer cell lines, and to study the anti-tumor effect of P-ss-PD micelle in nude mice. METHODS PEI-ss-PEG2000-DSPE was synthesized by grafting PEG2000-DSPE onto branched PEI with disulfide bond as a connecting arm. P-ss-PD micelle was prepared by ethanol injection method and P-ss-PD/ASO nanocomplex was obtained by combining P-ss-PD micelle with ASO. The particle size and zeta potential of P-ss-PD/ASO nanocomplex at various mass ratios were determined by laser particle size analyzer. Agarose gel retardation assay was used to investigate the binding degree of P-ss-PD/ASO nanocomplex and determine the optimal mass ratio. At the same time, the reduction responsive ability of P-ss-PD micelle was investigated. The cytotoxicity of P-ss-PD micelle was detected by CCK8 kit. The transfection efficiency of P-ss-PD micelle was investigated by flow cytometry and high content cell imaging analysis system in MDA-MB-231 cells. The anti-tumor effect of P-ss-PD micelle was investigated by tumor-bearing nude mice models. RESULTS When the mass ratio was 300∶1, the particle size of P-ss-PD/ASO nanocomplex was the smallest and had a good stability. The average particle size was (58.90 ± 4.08)nm, the average zeta potential was (16.80 ± 1.23)mV, and the morphology was uniform spherical. P-ss-PD/ASO nanocomplex had the reduction responsive ability and could release ASO under highly reductive conditions.In vitro, compared with unmodified branched PEI, the cytotoxicity of P-ss-PD micelle was significantly reduced and the transfection efficiency was significantly increased.In vivo, the tumor growth inhibition rate of P-ss-PD/ASO nanocomplex in tumor-bearing nude mice was more than 50%. CONCLUSION The P-ss-PD micelle prepared in this study is a kind of low toxicity and high transfection efficiency non-viral vector, which has the characteristics of reduction responsive releasing, and shows a promising application in ASO drug delivery.

Objective:To investigate the molecular mechanism by which exosomes secreted from human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) regulate pancreatic cancer (PC) cells.Methods:The exosomes secreted by BMSCs were extracted and identified. Human PC cell lines (PANC-1 and AsPC-1) were then divided into 3 groups: simple cell group, exosome group and inhibitor group. For inhibitor group, PI3K/AKT Signaling Pathway inhibitor LY294002 was added, followed by exosomes. Subsequently, the protein expression of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) protein kinase B(AKT) and their phosphorylated types was detected by Western-blot, and the contents of PC cell markers B7-H4 and CA199 were detected by ELISA kit. The CCK-8 experiment was mainly conducted to detect the proliferation ability of cells, the flow cytometry to detect apoptosis, and the Transwell experiment to detect the migration and invasion ability of cells.Results:The exosomes secreted by BMSCs were extracted successfully. The expression of PC cell markers B7-H4 and CA199, the proliferation rate, and the invasion and migration ability of cancer cells were all decreased for both PANC-1 and AsPC-1, while the apoptosis rate increased, all of which had statistical significance ( P<0.001). There were no significant differences for the above parameter in inhibitor group compared with the simple cell group ( P>0.05). The p-PI3K and p-Akt of PANC-1 cells in simple cell group were (5.81±1.87), (5.30±1.21), while up-regulated to (12.74±3.28), (11.22±2.35) with statistically significant differences ( P<0.001) after exosomes were added. Meanwhile, the above 2 kinds of protein expression of AsPC-1 cells in simple cell group were (4.75±0.87), (4.15±1.32), while increased to (10.83±3.19), (9.28±2.33) in exosome group with statistically significant differences ( P<0.001). On the other hand, there was no significant differences for the protein expression of P-PI3K and P-AKT in inhibitor group ( P>0.05) compared with the simple cell group. Conclusion:Exosomes secreted by BMSCS can inhibit the proliferation of PC cells and its migration and invasion ability by activating PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, thus playing a role in antitumor effect.
