BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that platelet-derived growth factor BB can stimulate the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells and accelerate the calcification process of osteoblast-like cells.However,its clinical application has problems such as short half-life and easy decomposition.Loading the growth factor onto a suitable biomaterial scaffold can enable its slow and continuous release and maintain an effective concentration,which has become a hot topic in current research.OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of chitosan/reduced graphene oxide scaffolds loaded with platelet-derived growth factor BB on the repair of alveolar bone defect in rats.METHODS:(1)Chitosan/reduced graphene oxide scaffolds(referred to as CS/rGO scaffolds)and chitosan/reduced graphene oxide scaffolds loaded with different mass concentrations(5,10,15,and 20 mg/L)of platelet-derived growth factor BB(referred to as CS/rGO/PDGF-BB-5,CS/rGO/PDGF-BB-10,CS/rGO/PDGF-BB-15,and CS/rGO/PDGF-BB-20 scaffolds)were prepared respectively.The five groups of scaffolds were co-cultured with rat periodontal ligament stem cells.The cell proliferation and migration were detected by CCK-8 assay and Transwell chamber assay,respectively,to screen the appropriate growth factor loading mass concentration for subsequent experiments.CS/rGO scaffolds(or extracts)and CS/rGO/PDGF-BB-15 scaffolds(or extracts)were co-cultured with rat periodontal ligament stem cells,and the osteogenic differentiation and angiogenic ability of the cells were detected.(2)The alveolar bone defect model was prepared in front of the bilateral maxillary first molars of 16 SD rats,and the rats were randomly divided into 4 intervention groups:the blank control group did not receive any intervention,the simple scaffold group was implanted with CS/rGO/PDGF-BB-15 scaffold,the control group was implanted with CS/rGO scaffold and rat periodontal ligament stem cell complex,and the experimental group was implanted with CS/rGO/PDGF-BB-15 scaffold and rat periodontal ligament stem cell complex,with 4 rats in each group.Twelve weeks after surgery,the bone repair of the alveolar bone defect was observed by Micro CT scanning and hematoxylin-eosin staining.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)CS/rGO/PDGF-BB-5,CS/rGO/PDGF-BB-10,CS/rGO/PDGF-BB-15,and CS/rGO/PDGF-BB-20 scaffolds could promote the proliferation and migration of rat periodontal ligament stem cells.Among them,the CS/rGO/PDGF-BB-15 scaffold had the most significant effect on promoting cell proliferation and migration,and this scaffold was used for subsequent experiments.Compared with the CS/rGO scaffold,the CS/rGO/PDGF-BB-15 scaffold could promote the osteogenic and angiogenic differentiation of rat periodontal ligament stem cells.(2)Micro CT scanning and hematoxylin-eosin staining results showed that the experimental group had the best alveolar bone defect repair effect,and a large amount of new bone tissue and blood vessel formation could be seen.(3)The chitosan/reduced graphene oxide scaffold loaded with platelet-derived growth factor BB can effectively promote the repair of rat alveolar bone defects by promoting the proliferation,migration,angiogenic and osteogenic differentiation of rat periodontal ligament stem cells.

BACKGROUND:Rheumatoid arthritis is influenced by complex genetic and environmental factors.Although observational studies have found some correlation between plasma proteins and rheumatoid arthritis,the susceptibility to confounding and reverse causation makes it difficult to clarify whether these proteins are pathogenic factors of rheumatoid arthritis.OBJECTIVE:To explore the potential of plasma proteins as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in rheumatoid arthritis through Mendelian randomization analysis of plasma proteins in the onset and progression of rheumatoid arthritis.METHODS:A large-scale two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis was conducted to comprehensively assess the causal relationships between 1 553 circulating proteins and rheumatoid arthritis based on the Decode database(developed by Decode Genetics in Iceland,which contains genomic data from the Icelandic population),the MR-Base platform(developed by a team of researchers at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom,specifically designed to provide genetic and phenotypic data for Mendelian randomization analyses),and the GWAS Catalog platform(developed by the European Institute of Bioinformatics,which provides data for genome wide association studies worldwide).The causal effects were estimated using the Wald ratio and inverse variance weighting methods,with Bonferroni correction applied to control for false positives caused by multiple testing.To ensure the robustness of the results,sensitivity analyses were performed to validate the positive causal relationship between circulating proteins and rheumatoid arthritis,and Bayesian colocalization and phenome scanning were used to exclude confounding effects and horizontal pleiotropy.Additionally,external validation was carried out using new plasma protein datasets to reduce the likelihood of false discoveries.Finally,small-molecule compounds associated with candidate proteins were identified using the Drug Signatures Database(DsigDB),and molecular docking was performed to predict the binding patterns and energies between proteins and compounds,identifying the most stable and likely binding molecules and mechanisms.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Sensitivity analyses,including Bayesian colocalization and phenome scanning,identified four plasma proteins with reliable causal relationships with rheumatoid arthritis:FCRL3,IL6R,ICOSLG,and TNFAIP3.Their genetic effects were estimated as follows:FCRL3[odds ratio(OR)=1.12,95％confidence interval(CI):1.07-1.17],IL6R(OR=0.94,95％CI:0.91-0.96),ICOSLG(OR=2.42,95％CI:1.67-3.52),and TNFAIP3(OR=2.19,95％CI:1.88-2.56).Furthermore,molecular docking analysis revealed that the small-molecule compound benzo[a]pyrene exhibited favorable binding with these candidate proteins,suggesting its potential as a therapeutic agent for rheumatoid arthritis.(2)This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the genetic causal relationships of FCRL3,IL6R,ICOSLG,and TNFAIP3 in rheumatoid arthritis.These proteins not only serve as potential molecular biomarkers for rheumatoid arthritis risk screening and disease prevention,but also offer key candidate targets for further understanding the pathogenic mechanisms of rheumatoid arthritis and developing targeted therapies.Although the study is based on European populations,its findings offer important insights for biomedical research in China.By incorporating Mendelian randomization methods to analyze genetic causality,future research on rheumatoid arthritis in the Chinese population could provide more accurate causal inferences,offering theoretical support for localized risk assessment and treatment strategies.

BACKGROUND:Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a secondary causative factor for osteoporosis.As highly heterogeneous innate immune cells,macrophages may be polarized in a hyperglycemic environment,which affects osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling.This may be a research target for improving bone quality in patients with type 2 diabetic osteoporosis.OBJECTIVE:To explore the role of modulating macrophage M1/M2 polarization to influence osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling in type 2 diabetic osteoporosis and to summarize the effects of commonly used anti-glucose and anti-osteoporosis drugs and bone biorepair materials on bone osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling by regulating macrophage M1/M2 polarization.METHODS:The keywords of"macrophage polarization,type 2 diabetes,osteoporosis,osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling"in Chinese and"macrophages,macrophage polarization,osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling"in English were used to search for relevant literature in CNKI and PubMed,respectively.Seventy-nine pieces of literature were screened and analyzed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Type 2 diabetes mellitus causes the body to be in a hyperglycemic environment and increases the secretion of inflammatory-related factors in the body,which promotes macrophage polarization towards M1 and decreases the number of M2 macrophages.(2)In type 2 diabetes,promoting M2 macrophage polarization is beneficial for osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling.(3)Some anti-glycemic drugs,active ingredients in traditional Chinese medicine and bone biorepair materials can improve type 2 diabetic osteoporosis by regulating macrophage M1/M2 polarization,reducing M1/M2 ratio,and promoting osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling.

OBJECTIVE:Most of the existing studies are based on traditional Meta-analysis to study the efficacy of single stimulation protocols such as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation on lower limb motor dysfunction in stroke patients,and it is not possible to clarify which stimulation protocol is the optimal choice.This study used network meta-analysis to systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy of different regimens of non-invasive brain stimulation in the treatment of lower limb motor dysfunction after stroke.METHODS:CNKI,WanFang,VIP,CBM,PubMed,Medline and Web of Science databases were searched to collect randomized controlled trials on different regimens of non-invasive brain stimulation for lower limb motor dysfunction after stroke from inception to October 1,2024.Data extraction was performed on the included studies.RevMan 5.4.1 software was used for traditional meta-analysis and the quality of the included studies was evaluated.Stata 17.0 software was used for network meta-analysis.RESULTS:(1)A total of 39 studies involving 2 920 patients were included,involving 6 treatment methods:conventional rehabilitation training,high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation,low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation,intermittent theta burst stimulation,continuous theta burst stimulation,and transcranial direct current stimulation.(2)The results of network meta-analysis showed that high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation,low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation,intermittent theta burst stimulation,and transcranial direct current stimulation were superior to conventional rehabilitation training in the Fugl-Meyer assessment for lower extremity motor function.(3)In terms of improving Berg balance scale score,high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation,low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation,and intermittent theta burst stimulation were significantly different from conventional rehabilitation training(P＜0.05),and there was a significant difference between high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and intermittent theta burst stimulation(P＜0.05).(4)In improving modified Barthel index and Barthel index,high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation,low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation,intermittent theta burst stimulation,and transcranial direct current stimulation were superior to conventional rehabilitation training.(5)Under the cumulative ranking chart,high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation showed the best efficacy in Fugl-Meyer assessment for lower extremity motor function,Berg balance scale score,modified Barthel index and Barthel index,followed by low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation.CONCLUSION:Both high-and low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation can improve the lower limb motor function and balance function of patients with stroke,and can improve the activities of daily living of patients to varying degrees.Moreover,the effect of high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation is better than that of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation.

BACKGROUND:Promoting skin wound healing is a huge challenge facing global public health.To promote faster and higher-quality wound healing,it is necessary to explore more advantageous dressings to address this problem.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the hemostatic properties of acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and its effect on skin wound healing.METHODS:(1)Acellular dermal matrix hydrogel was prepared,and the differences in microscopic morphology and main components between it and acellular dermal matrix were analyzed.(2)Acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel were used to cover the femoral artery puncture site of rats,and the bleeding quality and coagulation time were recorded.Acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel were mixed with rat anticoagulated blood,and the coagulation index within 30 minutes was detected.(3)A full-thickness skin defect model with a diameter of 12 mm was made on the back of 18 SD rats,and they were randomly divided into 3 groups,with 6 rats in each group:the model group used PBS to clean the wound,and the control group and the experimental group used chitosan hydrogel and acellular dermal matrix hydrogel to cover the wound,respectively.The hydrogel dressing was changed every day,and the treatment was continued for 14 days,and the wound healing was observed.On day 3 after modeling,immunofluorescence staining of inducible nitric oxide synthase(M1 macrophages)and CD206(M2 macrophages)was performed on the wound surface.On day 14 after modeling,hematoxylin-eosin staining,Masson staining,and CD31 immunohistochemical staining were performed on the wound surface.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the acellular dermal matrix hydrogel had a porous structure,and the Fourier transform infrared spectrum showed that it had the same main components as the acellular dermal matrix.(2)Both acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel had obvious hemostatic ability in vivo.In the in vitro coagulation experiments,the coagulation index of acellular dermal matrix hydrogel was significantly higher than that of chitosan hydrogel.(3)In the rat skin full-thickness defect model,both acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel could improve the wound healing rate.Hematoxylin-eosin and Masson staining results showed that acellular dermal matrix hydrogel could reduce the infiltration of inflammatory cells in the center of the wound.Both acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel could decrease scar width and increase collagen deposition rate.CD31 immunohistochemical staining results showed that both hydrogels could promote angiogenesis in the wound site.Immunofluorescence staining results showed that both hydrogels could reduce the proportion of M1 macrophages and increase the proportion of M2 macrophages,and the effect of acellular dermal matrix hydrogel was stronger than that of chitosan hydrogel.(4)The results show that the acellular dermal matrix hydrogel has good hemostatic properties and the ability to promote wound healing.

BACKGROUND:In vitro construction of tissue-engineered intestinal models plays an important role in intestinal regeneration and intestinal disease research.The interaction of intestinal nervous system and intestinal epithelial barrier to maintain body homeostasis is a hot topic in the bionic construction of tissue-engineered intestinal tract.OBJECTIVE:To construct a bionic model that can mimic the enteric nervous system in vivo.METHODS:Using fibroin protein with villus structure as scaffold,human induced neural stem cells solidified with collagen were added to intestinal epithelial cells(Caco-2 and HT29-MTX-E12)for 3-day culture to construct a co-culture system of intestinal epithelial cells and nerve cells(co-culture group).Human induced neural stem cells or intestinal epithelial cells cultured alone that were inoculated with fibroin scaffolds were set as controls.Cell morphology was observed by scanning electron microscopy and hematoxylin-eosin staining.Cell activity was detected by Live/Dead cell staining.Human induced neural stem cell differentiation was detected by β-microtubulin immunofluorescence staining.Intestinal epithelial histological properties and barrier function were detected by microvillin,sucrase-isomaltase,tight junction protein 1,E-calmodulin,and mucin-2 immunofluorescence staining.The function of mucus secretion from intestinal epithelial cells was detected by Alcian blue staining.Alkaline phosphatase staining was performed to detect differentiation of intestinal epithelial cells,at the same time,sucrase-isomaltase,tight junction protein 1,and alkaline phosphatase mRNAs were detected by RT-qRCR.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The neuralized intestinal mucosal co-culture model with villi structure was successfully constructed,and neural stem cells and intestinal epithelial cells on the fibroin scaffold showed good cellular activities.After neuralization,the activity of alkaline phosphatase and sucrase-isomaltase in intestinal epithelial cells was enhanced,while the expression level of tight junction protein 1 was up-regulated.To conclude,the neuralized bionic intestinal epithelial model is beneficial to the maturation of intestinal mucosal epithelial cells and the formation of barrier function.

BACKGROUND:Plate fixation is the mainstream method for the surgical treatment of distal femoral fractures.The intramedullary nailing has the advantages of minimally invasive,such as less soft tissue injury and bone blood supply destruction.At the same time,it is a central fixation and has better biomechanical effect.Therefore,retrograde intramedullary nailing has become another option for the internal fixation of distal femoral fractures.OBJECTIVE:The biomechanical characteristics of new retrograde intramedullary nail on lateral femur condyle,common femoral retrograde intramedullary nail,and lateral femur condyle anatomical locking plate for the treatment of A2-type distal femoral fractures were compared using finite element analysis,and the advantages of new retrograde intramedullary nail on lateral femur condyle was studied.METHODS:A new retrograde intramedullary nail on lateral femur condyle was designed,which was inserted into the bone cortex in front of the insertion point of the lateral collateral ligament of the lateral femoral condyle.A CT scan was performed on the lower limb bone of a male volunteer,and a three-dimensional model of the femur was established.The model was then segmented to create a three-dimensional model of a femoral distal A2-type fracture,The three-dimensional models of small(small group),standard type retrograde intramedullary nail on the lateral femoral condyle(standard group),common retrograde intramedullary needle(common group),and lateral femur condyle anatomical locking plate(plate group)were established respectively.The axial stresses of 600,1 800 N and the torsional load of 4 000,8 000 N·mm were applied to the models,and the displacement and stress of femur and the displacement,stress and shear force of internal fixators were observed in each group.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)When subjected to axial load of 600 and 1 800 N,the femoral peak displacement,the femoral peak stress,and the peak stress of interal fixation in the standard group were the lowest among the four groups.(2)When subjected to torsional load of 4 000 and 8 000 N·mm,the femoral peak displacement and peak displacement of the internal fixation in the standard group were the lowest among the four groups.(3)Compared with femoral lateral condylar locking plate and common retrograde intramedullary needle,the new retrograde intramedullary needle on lateral femur condyle has mechanical advantages of reducing stress concentration and decreasing the risk of internal fixation failure.

BACKGROUND:With changing lifestyles and aging,sagittal spinal imbalance has become a common orthopedic issue significantly affecting knee and pelvic function.Understanding the impact of sagittal spinal imbalance and its compensatory mechanisms is crucial for improving the clinical management of chronic pain.OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the alignment of the spine-pelvis-lower extremities using whole-body EOS imaging,analyze the correlation between spinal sagittal imbalance and knee joint parameters,and explore their compensatory mechanisms.METHODS:A total of 71 patients with chronic low back pain or patellofemoral pain who visited Department of Orthopedics,First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University between January 1,2021 and December 31,2023 were included.Radiographic measurements were performed using whole-body EOS to determine pelvic tilt,pelvic incidence,lumbar lordosis,sagittal vertical axis,global tilt,hip-knee-angle,knee flexion angle,lateral distal femoral angle,and medial proximal tibial angle.Patients were classified into normal group(pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis＜10°),compensated group(10°＜pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis＜20°),and decompensated group(pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis＞20°)based on the SRS-Schwab spinal deformity classification according to pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis difference.The differences in radiographic parameters among the groups were analyzed.The differences in American Knee Society Knee Score and Oswestry Disability Index scores were compared among each group.Patients were divided into chronic low back pain group and non-chronic low back pain group,patellofemoral pain group and non-patellofemoral pain group based on clinical symptoms,and the relationship between radiographic parameter differences and clinical symptoms was analyzed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)When pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis was less than 20°,lateral distal femoral angle and medial proximal tibial angle tended to stabilize.When pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis was greater than 20°,it showed a linear correlation with lateral distal femoral angle and medial proximal tibial angle,with lateral distal femoral angle increasing and medial proximal tibial angle decreasing with increasing pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis values.(2)Compared with the normal group,the compensated group had significantly increased pelvic tilt(P＜0.01),while knee joint parameters hip-knee-angle and knee flexion angle showed no significant differences;the decompensated group showed significant increases in pelvic tilt(P＜0.01),and decreases in hip-knee-angle,and knee flexion angle(P＜0.01).Compared with the compensated group,the decompensated group showed a significant decrease in hip-knee-angle(P＜0.05),but had no significant differences in pelvic tilt and knee flexion angle.(3)Compared with the non-patellofemoral pain group,patients with patellofemoral pain had significant decreases in spinal lumbar lordosis,lateral distal femoral angle,and medial proximal tibial angle(P＜0.05)and a significant increase in pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis(P＜0.05).(4)Patients with low back pain had significant differences in radiographic parameters compared with the non-chronic low back pain group(P＜0.05).(5)Compared with the normal group,both the compensated and decompensated groups showed a significant decrease in American Knee Society Knee Score scores and a significant increase in Oswestry Disability Index scores(P＜0.05).Compared with the compensated group,the decompensated group showed a significant decrease in American Knee Society Knee Score scores and a significant increase in Oswestry Disability Index scores(P＜0.05).(6)Pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis values increased with age and were higher in females compared with males.(7)This study systematically reveals the spine and lower limbs play an important role in disease progression and clinical symptoms.Associated symptoms low back pain and patellofemoral pain are related to the stability of the spine-pelvis-lower extremity alignment.Furthermore,spinal sagittal imbalance is more severe in elderly and female patients.

BACKGROUND:Pediatric flexible flatfoot is a common foot deformity that often leads to foot pain and reduced quality of life.OBJECTIVE:To explore the relationship between radiographic parameters and clinical efficacy of subtalar arthroereisis in the treatment of pediatric flexible flatfoot.METHODS:A retrospective study was conducted on 56 pediatric patients(mean age of 11.8 years)who underwent subtalar arthroereisis at Guangzhou Orthopedic Hospital between January 2022 and May 2023.All patients underwent detailed radiographic examinations and clinical evaluations before and after surgery,including the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot score and Visual Analog Scale score.Paired t-tests and independent t-tests were used to compare changes in radiographic parameters and clinical scores before and after surgery.Correlation analyses were conducted to evaluate the relationship between radiographic parameters and clinical outcomes.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)All radiographic parameters significantly improved during the 8 to 12-month follow-up after surgery(P＜0.001).(2)Clinical evaluation results indicated that the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot score significantly improved from 66.2±6.0 preoperatively to 91.3±5.8 postoperatively,and the Visual Analog Scale score significantly decreased from 3.1±0.8 preoperatively to 1.3±0.8 postoperatively(P＜0.001).(3)Independent t-tests showed a significant difference in postoperative the first metatarsal angle and Visual Analog Scale score grades(P=0.043),with a smaller the first metatarsal angle associated with less postoperative pain;preoperative lateral arch angle showed a significant difference between the"excellent"and"good"groups in postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot scores(P=0.033),suggesting that a smaller preoperative posterior arch angle might predict better postoperative foot function recovery.(4)Correlation analysis showed that preoperative posterior arch angle(r=-0.486,P＜0.01)and heel pitch angle(r=-0.344,P＜0.01)were significantly negatively correlated with postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot,while preoperative medial longitudinal arch angle(r=0.293,P＜0.05)was significantly positively correlated with postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot.Postoperative medial longitudinal arch angle(r=0.331,P＜0.05)and lateral arch angle(r=0.387,P＜0.01)were significantly positively correlated with postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot,whereas postoperative Bohler's angle(r=-0.272,P＜0.05),posterior arch angle(r=-0.461,P＜0.01),and heel pitch angle(r=-0.318,P＜0.01)were significantly negatively correlated with postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot.(5)It is concluded that subtalar arthroereisis is significantly effective in correcting pediatric flexible flatfoot,and improvements in radiographic parameters are closely related to clinical efficacy.Preoperative and postoperative radiographic evaluations can serve as important reference indicators for predicting postoperative clinical outcomes,guiding clinicians to optimize treatment plansand rehabilitation programs.

BACKGROUND:Exercise is an effective way to improve microvascular function in patients with type 2 diabetes.In recent years,exercise has been used as an intervention therapy for microvascular dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes.However,few studies have systematically explored the influence of factors,such as"exercise type,exercise intensity and amount of exercise,"on microvascular function in patients.To some extent,this limits the formulation of precise exercise prescriptions to improve microvascular dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes and the comparison of study results.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of exercise type,intensity,frequency and amount of exercise on microvascular function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus,and to make suggestions on exercise prescription.METHODS:The first author used computer to search the studies on the improvement of microvascular function in type 2 diabetes patients involving exercise in CNKI,WanFang,PubMed and other databases.The search terms were"diabetes mellitus,type 2 diabetes mellitus,microcirculation,microvascular reactivity,microvessels,capillaries,vasodilation,blood perfusion volume,endothelial cells,shear stress,exercise,aerobic exercise,resistance exercise,high-intensity exercise"in Chinese and English.The articles were screened by a quick glance at the article titles and abstracts to exclude those that were not closely related to the topic,and finally 60 articles were included for review.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Exercise is an effective way to improve microvascular function in patients with type 2 diabetes.Aerobic exercise lasting 12-24 weeks,3-5 times/week,exercise time＞30 minutes and intensity between 40％and 59％reserve oxygen intake can significantly improve microvascular function in patients with type 2 diabetes.On the basis of aerobic exercise,systemic resistance exercise 2-3 times a week(50％-85％1RM,every other day)or pressure resistance exercise can obtain better intervention effects.(2)In addition,exercise can improve microvascular function in patients with type 2 diabetes in a"dose-effect"manner,and patients can get better results from the intervention by increasing the amount of exercise,while maintaining safety.(3)The mechanism of exercise improving microvascular function in patients with type 2 diabetes is mainly related to promoting the release of nitric oxide and vascular endothelial growth factor from endothelial cells and inhibiting the release of endothelin1.
