OBJECTIVE: To explore the current research status and hotspots in the field of biomechanics of diabetic foot by bibliometric analysis methods. METHODS: Literatures related to biomechanics of diabetic foot published in the Web of Scienc Core Collection (WoSCC) from 1981 to 2024 were searched. CiteSpace software and R language bibliometrics plugin were used to conduct a visual analysis of annual publication volume of the literature, including publication volume of each country and region, the publication situation of authors and institutions, the citation situation of individual literature, and the co-occurrence network of keywords. RESULTS: Totally 996 literatures were included, and the number of published papers increased steadily. The United States (261 papers) and China (89 papers) were the top two countries in terms of the number of published papers. The mediating centrality of the United States was 0.94, and that of China was 0.01. Scholars such as Cavanagh and institutions like the Cleveland Clinic were at the core of research in this field. High-frequency keywords include plantar pressure (plantar pressure), diabetic foot (diabetic foot), ulceration (ulcer), etc. The research focuses on plantar pressure, ulcer formation and prevention, etc. CONCLUSION Biomechanical research on diabetic foot mainly focuses on the pressure distribution on the sole of the foot, callus formation, mechanical analysis of soft tissues on the sole of the foot, and the study of plantar decompression caused by Achilles tendon elongation. The research trend has gradually shifted from focusing on joint range of motion to gait and the design of braces and assistive devices, and has begun to pay attention to muscle strength, gait imbalance and proprioception abnormalities.

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.

Objective This study is to explore the clinical efficacy and common adverse reactions of PEG-IFN α-2b combined with TMF and TDF in the treatment of hepatitis B liver fibrosis,and provide more clinical reference for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B.Methods From January 2022 to December 2023,we selected 130 patients with chronic hepatitis B liver fibrosis who were admitted to Kunming Third People's Hospital.Divided into TMF combined group and TDF combined group,the virus reduction level,virus response rate,liver fibrosis four items,instantaneous elastography(FibroScan)and other indicators were compared between the two groups of patients after 48 weeks of treatment.The changes in liver fibrosis grading and adverse reactions before and after treatment were also compared.Results After 48 weeks of treatment,the TMF combined group showed a significant increase in HBV DNA seroconversion rate and HBeAg seroconversion rate compared to the TDF combined group,with statistical significance(P<0.05).However,there was no statistically significant difference in HBsAg seroconversion rate between the two groups of patients(P>0.05).After 48 weeks of treatment,the TMF combined group showed more significant efficacy in reducing the levels of HA,PC Ⅲ,Ⅳ-C,and LN,with a significant difference(P<0.05);After 48 weeks of treatment,both groups of patients showed improvement in the degree of liver tissue fibrosis.Compared with the TDF combined group,the TMF combined group had a more significant effect on tissue improvement.After 48 weeks of treatment,the incidence of dyslipidemia,hypothyroidism,and diarrhea was higher in the TMF combined group than in the TDF combined group(P<0.05);After 48 weeks of treatment,there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of gingival bleeding,anemia,and thrombocytopenia between the two groups of patients(P>0.05);The incidence of elevated uric acid and joint pain in the TDF combined group was higher than that in the TMF combined group after 48 weeks of treatment(P<0.05).Conclusion TMF combined with PEG-IFN α-2b has better clinical efficacy in treating chronic hepatitis B,strong antiviral ability,greater inhibition of liver fibrosis,good drug safety,better prognosis,and can provide more effective medication basis for clinical cure of hepatitis B.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of Saccharomyces boulardii and other probiotics in the treatment of pediatric diarrhea.Methods Retrieved from PubMed,Embase,CBM,Wanfang data,CNKI and VIP,randomized controlled trial(RCTs)about Saccharomyces boulardii(treatment group)vs other probiotics(control group)were collected.After screening the literature,extracting data and evaluating the quality,Meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 and Stata 17.0 software.Results A total of 30 RCTs were included,involving 3 082 children.Results of Meta-analysis showed there was no statistical significance in the duration of diarrhea[mean difference(MD)=-0.65,95％confidence interval(CI)=-1.44-0.14,P＞0.05]or the total incidence of adverse reactions[odds ratio(OR)=0.85,95％CI=0.44-1.62,P＞0.05].The total effective rate(OR=1.60,95％CI=1.08-2.36,P＜0.05)and the number of stools(MD=-0.66,95％CI=-1.00--0.32,P＜0.01)in the treatment group were significantly better than control group.There was statistically significant difference in the duration of diarrhea between the two groups treated with diarrhea with fever(MD=1.81,95％CI=1.12-2.49,P＜0.01)and rotavirus gastroenteritis(MD=-0.92,95％CI=-1.20--0.64,P＜0.01).In the treatment of diarrhea with fever,the duration of diarrhea in the control group was significantly shorter than that in the treatment group.The duration of diarrhea in the treatment group was significantly shorter than that control group.At the same time,the duration of diarrhea in children with diarrhea treated with treatment group was significantly shorter than that of control group Bifidobacterium tetragenous viable(MD=-0.84,95％CI=-1.09--0.58,P＜0.01)and control group combined Bacillus subtilis and Enterococcus faecium enteric-coated(MD=-1.35,95％CI=-2.30-0.39,P＜0.01).Conclusion The safety of Saccharomyces boulardii are similar to other probiotics.The efficacy and the number of stools with Saccharomyces boulardii are significantly better than other probiotics in the treatment of diarrhea.The duration of diarrhea in Saccharomyces boulardii group was significantly shorter than other probiotics,while in the treatment of antibiotic-associated diarrhea,the duration of diarrhea of Saccharomyces boulardii was the same as that of other probiotics.However,the duration of diarrhea in children with diarrhea treated with Saccharomyces boulardii was significantly longer than other probiotics.

Objective To investigate the prediction of diffusion kurtosis imaging(DKI)and intra voxel incoherent motion(IVIM)imaging global histogram parameters for the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC)in patients diagnosed with breast invasive ductal carcinoma.Methods A total of 69 patients with breast invasive ductal carcinoma confirmed by penetration pathology were retrospectively selected.Prior to undergoing NAC,all patients underwent sequential scans including MR conventional(T1WI,T2WI),dynamic contrast enhancement(DCE),DKI,and IVIM.After surgery,the patients were divided into significant group(40 patients)and non-significant group(29 patients)based on the efficacy of NAC,which was evaluated using the Miller-Payne(MP)grading method criteria.The differences in global histogram parameters of DKI[mean diffusivity(MD),mean kurtosis(MK)]and IVIM(D value,f value,D*value)between the significant group and the non-significant group were compared by the two-independent sample t-test and Mann-Whitney U test.In addition,the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted,and Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy and correlation of DKI and IVIM global histogram parameters in predicting NAC efficacy.The DeLong test was used to compare whether there was statistical significance in area under the curve(AUC)differences among histogram parameters.Results The DKI MD value(90th percentile,mean,median,maximum,range,root mean square),IVIM D value(mean,range,root mean square,median)and D*value(entropy,90th percentile)of patients with breast invasive ductal carcinoma in the significant group with efficacy of NAC were higher than those in the non-significant group,while the DKI MK value(mean and median)were lower than those in the non-significant group,and all the differences mentioned above were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The AUC,sensitivity and specificity of DKI combined with IVIM global histogram parameters were the highest,which were 0.816,72.41％and 90.00％,respectively.MD value,D value and D*value were negatively correlated with the efficacy of NAC in breast invasive ductal carcinoma.MK value was positively correlated with NAC efficacy significance.Conclusion DKI combined with IVIM global histogram parameters can effectively predict the efficacy of NAC in patients with breast invasive ductal carcinoma and provide effective value for clinical NAC preoperative efficacy evaluation.

Meningioma is one of the most common types of benign primary brain tumors in older adults, and multiple meningiomas are reported in fewer than 1% to 10% of cases. However, there is no definitive treatment guideline for patients with multiple meningiomas. An 80-year-old man presented with abruptly impaired cognition and was found to have two distinct meningiomas located in the temporal and frontal lobes. A single frontotemporal craniotomy was performed to remove both tumors. Pathological analysis revealed different subtypes and World Health Organization grades for each mass. The patient showed symptomatic improvement, experienced no postoperative complications, and exhibited no signs of recurrence during a 1-year follow-up period with evaluations at 3-month intervals. Despite the absence of a standard treatment for multiple meningiomas, surgical resection in a single procedure is feasible in selected patients.
