Objective To conduct the reductive reservation for torsional ovary in different states(.un-necrotic ovary,suspected necrotic torsional ovary and torsional necrotic ovary)after the ovarian torsion in pre-maturity SD rat,and to investigate its effect on the ovarian reproductive function in maturity stage.Methods A total of 32 SD rats with 3 weeks old were selected and randomly divided into 4 groups,8 cases in each group.The animal model of ovarian torsion was made by using the Turner method,which was similar to the animal model of testicular torsion,and either group was selected to undergo the sham operation as the con-trol group(CG group).The non-necrotic torsional ovary detorsion group(NNTOD group),suspected necrotic torsional ovary detorsion group(SNTOD group)and necrotic torsional ovary detorsion group(NTOD group)were established respectively.When the animals were fed to sexual maturity at 8 weeks of age,the experimen-tal animals were sacrificed by vertebral dislocation method,and the ovary tissues on the torsional side were cut for HE staining and transmission electron microscopy to examine the changes of ovarian histomorphology and mitochondrial structure.Ovarian cell apoptosis was detected by Tunel assay.ELISA method was used to de-tect the follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH),luteinizing hormone(LH)and anti-mullerian duct hormone(AMH)levels in centrifugal blood.Results The ovarian structure in the CG group and NNTOD group was clear,the ovarian follicles at different levels were developed well;the electron microscopy showed normal mi-tochondria.The ovarian partial structure in the SNTOD group was disorganized,the number of follicles at all levels of growth was decreased;electron microscopic examination showed a little damage of mitochondria.In the NTOD group,the arrangement of ovarian structure was obviously disordered,the number of growing folli-cles at all levels was significantly reduced;the electron microscopy showed that most of the mitochondria were obviously swollen and severely damaged.Compared with the CG group,the apoptosis rate in the SNTOD group and NTOD group was significantly increased(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant differ-ence between CG group and NNTOD group(P>0.05).Compared with the NTOD group,the apoptosis rate in the SNTOD group was decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the CG group,the levels of LH and FSH in the SNTOD and NTOD groups were increased,and the AMH level was decreased(P<0.05).The LH and FSH levels in the SNTOD group were lower than those in the NTOD group,the AMH level was higher than that in the NTOD group(P<0.05).Conclusion After reduction of the torsional suspected necrotic ovary in the prematurity rat,the ovarian reproductive function in the torsional side during sexual maturity period is slightly injured;while after reduction of torsional necrotic ovary restoration,its reproductive function is appar-ently damaged.

BACKGROUND:Increasing evidence has indicated that early reinforcement of correct posture is particularly important for improving abnormal gait in stroke patients.Wearable exoskeleton-assisted training can improve patients'walking function in a short period of time,and can also assist the coordinated movement of muscles around the pelvis,hip,knee,and ankle joints,control the walking trajectory of the lower limbs,and improve walking ability in patients with stroke.OBJECTIVE:To explore the improvement of abnormal gait in stroke patients by a wearable exoskeleton with posture feedback,and to explore the rehabilitation mechanism.METHODS:A total of 52 patients in the recovery period of stroke admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College from January 2023 to January 2024 were included in this study and randomly divided into an experimental group(n=26)and a control group(n=26)using a random number table method.Based on conventional rehabilitation training,the patients in the experimental group participated in training using a wearable exoskeleton with posture feedback(15 minutes per day,6 times per week),while those in the control group were given conventional gait therapy(15 minutes per day,6 times per week).Training in each group lasted for 4 weeks.Before and after training,the lower limb motor function scores,gait parameters(step length,step speed,step width)and gait symmetry were compared between the two groups,and the brain functional connectivity values of the prefrontal motor area,the primary motor cortex and the sensorimotor area were detected using portable near-infrared spectroscopy.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After training,lower limb motor function scores,gait parameters and gait symmetry were significantly improved in the two groups(P<0.05).Meanwhile,the experimental group was superior to the control group in terms of gait parameters and gait symmetry(P<0.05).Brain functional connectivity values of the right sensorimotor area-left prefrontal motor area and right sensorimotor area-right prefrontal motor area were significantly increased in the two groups after training(P<0.05).The functional connectivity values of the left sensorimotor area-right primary motor cortex and left sensorimotor area-left primary motor cortex in the experimental group were increased after training(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the functional connectivity values of the left sensorimotor area-right primary motor cortex and left sensorimotor area-left primary motor cortex were increased in the experimental group after training(P<0.05).To conclude,based on conventional rehabilitation training,a wearable exoskeleton with posture feedback can not only effectively improve the abnormal gait of stroke patients,but also activate the functional sensorimotor areas of the brain associated with abnormal gait.

Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is a means of playing the systemic organ protective effect by transient ischemia/reperfusion of the limb,thus reduces the damage caused by more severe ischemic events.RIC can be applied before,during and after ischemic events;among them,the application before ische-mia is relatively more,which is called the remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC).Researches have shown that RIC has considerable clinical translation value characterizing by non-invasion,economy,safety and effect. Although the specific mechanism needs to continue to be explored,but its protective targets are quite exten-sive.Especially for the heart,RIC seems to have favorable protective effects on the heart under almost all pathological conditions.Moreover,RIC has a certain degree of protective effect on the nervous system,lungs,livers and kidneys.Based on this,this article reviews the protective effects of RIC in different organs and its possible mechanisms.

Objective:To compare the effect of modified postauricular transverse incision and traditional vertical incision for microvascular decompression in the treatment of hemifacial spasm.Methods:Prospective study method was used. A total of 116 patients with hemifacial spasm in Handan Central Hospital from January 1, 2019 to January 1, 2020 were selected, and divided into two groups according to the admission order. Both groups underwent microvascular decompression; control group (57 cases) received traditional vertical incision, while treatment group (59 cases) received modified postauricular transverse incision. The brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP), pain degree, surgical indicators, facial aesthetic satisfaction and complications were compared between two groups.Results:After treatment, the BAEP of latency, wave interval and wave amplitude in the two groups increased compared with that before treatment, and the BAEP of latency, wave interval and wave amplitude in the treatment group were higher than those in the control group: (1.89 ± 0.15) ms vs. (1.62 ± 0.21) ms, (7.89 ± 0.15) ms vs. (6.25 ± 0.41) ms, (1.79 ± 0.19) ms vs. (1.54 ± 0.11) ms ( P<0.05). After treatment, the visual analogue score (VAS) of patients in the two groups decreased compared with that before treatment, and the VAS of patients in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group: (1.15 ± 0.27) points vs. (2.18 ± 0.24) points ( P<0.05). The operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume and postoperative scar length of patients in the treatment group were less than those in the control group: (60.41 ± 3.81) h vs. (76.87 ± 3.87) h, (30.18 ± 4.19) ml vs. (56.87 ± 4.15) ml and (4.18 ± 1.07) cm vs. (6.87 ± 1.05) cm ( P<0.05). The satisfaction rate of patients in the treatment group was higher than that in the control group: 91.53% (54/59) vs. 71.93% (41/57) ( P<0.05). The complication rate of patients in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group: 5.08% (3/59) vs. 21.05% (12/57) ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with traditional vertical incision, the modified transverse incision for microvascular decompression in the treatment of hemifacial spasm can reduce intraoperative blood loss and postoperative scar area, enhance brainstem auditory evoked potential, and improve facial aesthetics, which is worthy of recommendation.

Baylisascaris schroederi,a roundworm(ascaridoid)parasite specific to the bamboo-feeding giant panda(Ailuropoda melanoleuca),represents a leading cause of mortality in wild giant panda populations.Here,we present a 293-megabase chromosome-level genome assembly of B.schroederi to infer its biology,including host adaptations.Comparative genomics revealed an evolutionary trajectory accompanied by host-shift events in ascaridoid parasite lineages after host separations,suggesting their potential for transmission and rapid adaptation to new hosts.Genomic and anatomical lines of evidence,including expansion and positive selection of genes related to the cuticle and basal metabolisms,indicate that B.schroederi undergoes specific adaptations to survive in the sharp-edged bamboo-enriched gut of giant pandas by structurally increasing its cuticle thickness and efficiently utilizing host nutrients through gut parasitism.Additionally,we characterized the secretome of B.schroederi and predicted potential drug and vaccine targets for new control strategies.Overall,this genome resource provides new insights into the host adaptation of B.schroederi to the giant panda as well as the host-shift events in ascaridoid parasite lineages.Our findings on the unique biology of B.schroederi will also aid in the development of prevention and treatment measures to protect giant panda populations from roundworm parasitism.

OBJECTIVETo compare the differences of postoperative patient-controlled intravenous analgesia for laparoscopic cholecystectomy and gynecological laparoscopy in female patients.
METHODSThis retrospective study included 645 female patients received laparoscopic cholecystectomy or gynecological laparoscopy (laparoscopic oophorocystectomy/myomectomy) between January 2011 and July 2012 in Tongji Hospital. Among them, 207 cases of sufentanil-tramadol patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) were enrolled and divided into 2 groups:77 cases in laparoscopic cholecystectomy group, and 130 cases in gynecological laparoscopy group. The pressing frequency and consumption of PCIA, localization and quality of postoperative pain, visual analogue scale (VAS) at 4-6 h, 8-12 h, 18-24 h after surgery, and adverse effect were compared by t-test,χ(2) test, Fisher exact test or Mann-Whitney test.
RESULTSThere was no statistical difference of age, body mass index, and operation time between the two groups (all P > 0.05). As compared with the gynecological laparoscopy group (3 (4)), PCIA pressing frequency was higher in the laparoscopic cholecystectomy group (5 (7)), but there was no statistical difference (Z = -1.747, P = 0.081). PCIA consumption in the laparoscopic cholecystectomy group (79 (33) ml) was higher than that in the gynecological laparoscopy group (48 (30) ml) (Z = -6.267, P = 0.000). The postoperative pain localization and quality were different in the two groups, the patients in the laparoscopic cholecystectomy group experienced dull pain in lower abdomen, but the ones in the gynecological laparoscopy group had distending pain in upper abdomen and piercing pain around scapula. The differences of 4-6 h, 8-12 h, 18-24 h VAS scores in the two groups had no statistical significance (all P > 0.05). The total incidence of postoperative adverse effect between the two groups had no statistical significant difference (laparoscopic cholecystectomy group:11.7%, gynecological laparoscopy group:16.2%) (χ(2) = 0.778, P = 0.378). The incidence of dizziness was higher in the gynecological laparoscopy group (6.2%) than that in the laparoscopic cholecystectomy group (0) (Fisher exact test:P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONIn the case of sufentanil-tramadol PCIA, laparoscopic cholecystectomy needs more postoperative analgesia, while gynecological laparoscopy has higher incidence of dizziness.

Dirofilaria immitis (heartworm) infections affect domestic dogs, cats, and various wild mammals with increasing incidence in temperate and tropical areas. More sensitive antibody detection methodologies are required to diagnose asymptomatic dirofilariasis with low worm burdens. Applying current transcriptomic technologies would be useful to discover potential diagnostic markers for D. immitis infection. A filarial homologue of the mammalian translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP) was initially identified by screening the assembled transcriptome of D. immitis (DiTCTP). A BLAST analysis suggested that the DiTCTP gene shared the highest similarity with TCTP from Loa loa at protein level (97%). A histidine-tagged recombinant DiTCTP protein (rDiTCTP) of 40 kDa expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) showed immunoreactivity with serum from a dog experimentally infected with heartworms. Localization studies illustrated the ubiquitous presence of rDiTCTP protein in the lateral hypodermal chords, dorsal hypodermal chord, muscle, intestine, and uterus in female adult worms. Further studies on D. immitis-derived TCTP are warranted to assess whether this filarial protein could be used for a diagnostic purpose.
