Transaminases are a class of enzymes that catalyze the transfer of amino between amino acids and keto acids, playing an important role in the biosynthesis of organic amines and the corresponding derivatives. However, natural enzymes often have low catalytic efficiency against non-natural substrates, which limits their widespread applications. Enzyme engineering serves as an effective approach to improve the catalytic properties and thereby expand the application scope of transaminases. In this study, a high-throughput screening method for transaminases was established based on the fluorescent color reaction between methoxy-2-aminobenzoxime (PMA) and ketones. According to the changes in fluorescence intensity, the concentration changes of ketones could be easily monitored. The efficiency, sensitivity, and accuracy of the screening method were improved by optimization of the system. With 4-hydroxy-2-butanone as the substrate, the mutant library of the transaminase from Actinobacteria sp. was established and a mutant with increased activity was successfully obtained, which improved the production efficiency of (R)-3-aminobutanol by enzyme-catalyzed synthesis. This study laid an important foundation for efficient screening, modification, and application of transaminase.

Objective To study the efficacy and safety of flexible ureteroscopy holmium laser lithotripsy(FURS)in the treatment of urinary tract stones of different sizes and positions.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 121 patients with upper urinary tract stones from January 2021 to December 2023.According to the size of the stones,they were divided into the diameter ≤20 mm group(n=98)and the 20 mm＜diameter ≤40 mm group(n=23).According to the location of the stones,19 cases were divided into the renal pelvis stone group and 102 cases were non renal pelvis stones.The surgical related indicators and incidence of complications were compared between the groups.Result The operation time of the group with diameter ≤20 mm and the group with diameter 20 mm＜diameter ≤40 mm was(44.13±12.6)minutes and(57.52±20.98)minutes,respectively.The hospitalization periods were(4.55±1.54)days and(5.74±2.00)days,respectively.There were statistically significant differences between the two groups(P＜0.05).The stone clearance rates in the group with diameter ≤ 20 mum and the group with 20 mum＜diameter ≤ 40 mum were 84.69％and 78.26％,respectively.There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).The operation time of the subcalyx kidney stone group and the non-subcalyx kidney stone group was(44.05±11.08)minutes and(47.17±16.19)minutes respectively,the hospital stay was(4.74±1.52)days and(4.78±1.73)days respectively,and the ESWL selection rates after the operation were 5.26％and 10.78％respectively.The stone recurrence rates were 15.79％and 4.90％respectively,and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).The stone clearance rates in the subcalyx kidney stone group and the non-subcalyx kidney stone group were 63.16％and 87.25％,respectively.There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidences of urosepsis,fever,low back pain,hematuria and total complications between the 20 mm＜diameter ≤40 mm group and the diameter ≤20 mm group(P＞0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidences of urosepsis,fever,low back pain,hematuria and total complications between the non-inferior calyx stone group and the inferior calyx stone group(P＞0.05).Conclusion FURS treatment for upper urinary tract stones with a diameter of≤20 mm has shorter surgical and hospitalization times compared to patients with a diameter of≤40 mm.ESWL and lower stone recurrence rates are also preferred after surgery.FURS treatment for non lower renal calyx stones has a higher stone clearance rate compared to lower renal calyx stones.The safety of FURS treatment for upper urinary tract stones of different sizes and positions is equivalent.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.

Establishing a scientific talent classification evaluation mechanism is of great significance for public hospitals to motivate and guide the career development of various types of talents and to promote the high-quality development of the health and medical care industry. However, university-affiliated hospitals had long faced issues such as an imperfect talent classification evaluation system, difficulty in setting evaluation indicators, a relatively monolithic evaluation method, and insufficient application of evaluation results. In 2019, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, initiated a talent stratification and classification management mechanism. The hospital established separate evaluation indicator systems for clinical, research, and teaching talents, and adhered to a value orientation that equally emphasizes medical care, teaching, and research. Additionally, a diversified evaluation mode was constructed, led by the hospital with the participation of peers and the public. Emphasis was also placed on linking evaluation results with talent development, rewards, and excellence awards. The initiative has achieved positive outcomes and can serve as a reference for talent management in other university-affiliated hospitals and relevant departments.
