BACKGROUND:The pelvis has abundant trabecular bone content,but the ability of conventional sacroiliac percutaneous fixation to control trabecular bone is limited,leading to fixation failure.Therefore,the development of devices that can more effectively control trabecular bone tension is of significant importance.OBJECTIVE:The mechanical properties of a novel sacroiliac tension screw were investigated using biomechanical testing and numerical modeling analysis,along with an assessment of the reliability of the pull-out force numerical model.METHODS:A mechanical model was established based on the working principle of the novel sacroiliac tension screw.Numerical methods were employed to analyze its pull-out performance,validated through mechanical testing with polyurethane material to assess the reliability of the pull-out force numerical model.Using pelvic specimens,the mechanical effectiveness of the novel sacroiliac tension screw in repairing sacroiliac joint injuries was analyzed under normal standing posture,along with an evaluation of the load stiffness of different pelvic models in the standing position.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The average error between the computed values of the numerical model and the measured values was 13.19％,indicating a certain level of validity for the numerical model.(2)The damage to the polyurethane material after the extraction of the screw was less pronounced in the novel screw group.(3)The average effective holding displacement for the novel screw was approximately(9.24±0.27)mm,significantly greater than the average displacement of(1.71±0.57)mm observed with the lag screws.However,the maximum resistance to pullout for the lag screws was significantly higher than that for the novel screws.(4)The novel screw effectively repaired sacroiliac joint injuries.(5)The stiffness after repair of sacroiliac joint injuries was equivalent when using a single novel screw compared to using two lag screws.(6)These results prove that the theoretical model for the maximum resistance to pullout of the screws established in this study has a certain level of validity and can guide the design of them with improved mechanical performance.The novel sacroiliac spiral blade screw can effectively hold trabecular bone and has practical clinical utility.

Objective To explore the characteristics and prognosis of follicular lymphoma(FL)with bulky disease under rituximab-based first-line treatment.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 525 FL patients diagnosed between September 2009 and September 2021 who received rituximab as a first-line treat-ment[342 patients received rituximab combined with chemotherapy(R-chemo),183 patients received rituximab plus lenalidomide(R2)].The clinicopathologic characteristics,gene mutations,and prognosis of bulky FL patients were analyzed.Results Compared to non-bulky FL patients,bulky FL patients had a significantly higher proportion of lymph node≥5 sites,≥2 extranodal involvement,bone marrow involvement,elevated LDH,and a higher proportion in the high-risk group of FLIPI1 and FLIPI2.Gene sequencing revealed a significantly higher mutation rate of ZNF608 in bulky FL patients compared to non-bulky FL patients.In patients receiving R-chemo as the first-line treatment,there was no significant difference in progression-free survival(PFS)and overall survival(OS)between bulky and non-bulky FL patients.However,in patients treated with R2,the PFS and OS of bulky FL patients was significantly shorter.Conclusions Bulky FL patients compared to non-bulky FL patients have a significantly higher proportion of high-risk baseline characteristics.For bulky FL at diagnosis,chemo-free regimens require further exploration on the basis of R2.

Objective To investigate the potential mechanism of action of polygonatum odoratum in treating Alzheimer's disease through the utilization of network pharmacology and molecular docking techniques.Methods The methods employed include target screening,Gene Ontology(GO)function and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)enrichment analysis,and molecular docking simulations to assess the binding interactions between the active compounds in polygonatum odoratum(POD)and the key target proteins associated with Alzheimer's disease.Subsequently,lipopolysaccharide(LPS)was used to induce an inflammatory cell model in BV2 microglial cells.After treating the cell model with POD extract for 24 hours,the cells were collected,and the expression of the target genes were detected by Real-time PCR.Results Eight active ingredients and 172 targets of POD were screened.The biological processes such as protein phosphorylation and signal transduction,protein binding and ATP binding were obtained by GO functional analysis.KEGG enrichment yielded PI3K/Akt,cAMP and other signaling pathways.The molecular docking result showed that the active ingredient of POD had well binding activity with epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR),proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Src(SRC),tumor necrosis factor(TNF),STAT3.Through Real-time PCR experiments,the gene expressions of inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS),prostaglandin G/H synthase 2(PTGS2),interleukin(IL)-6,and IL-1β in the LPS-induced inflammatory cell model were significantly upregulated.After treating the inflammatory model with POD extract for 24 hours,the expression of TNF-α was significantly reduced,the expression of STAT3 was upregulated,there were no significant changes in the expressions of SRC and EGFR.Conclusion Network pharmacology suggests polygonatum odoratum's potential anti-Alzheimer's effects may be mediated through its interaction with targets such as EGFR,TNF,SRC,and STAT3.The experimental results suggest that polygonatum odoratum exerts an anti-inflammatory effect by acting on TNF-α,which may further alleviate the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease.
