OBJECTIVE: This review summarized the first 10-year progresses and controversies in the concept of anteromedial cortical support reduction, to provide references for further study and clinical applications. METHODS: Relevant domestic and foreign literature on cortical support reduction was extensively reviewed to summarize the definition of positive, neutral, and negative support, anteromedial cortices at the inferior corner, intraoperative technical tips for fracture reduction, radiographic assessment at different periods, comparison between positive versus neutral and medial versus anterior support, and the clinical efficacy of Chang reduction quality criteria (CRQC) and postoperative stability score. RESULTS: Anteromedial cortical support reduction was only focused on the cortex of anteromedial inferior corner, with no concern the status of lateral wall or lesser trochanter. Anteromedial cortex was seldom involved by fracture comminution, it was thicker, denser, and stronger, and was the key for mechanical buttress of the head-neck fragment to share compression load. Positive, neutral, and negative support were also called "extramedullary, anatomic, and intramedullary reduction", respectively. There was hardly seen parallel cortical apposition, but characterized by some kinds of head-neck rotation, for example 10°-15° flexed rotation for positive cortical contact and support. Due to intraoperative compression and postoperative impaction, the status of cortical support may be changed at different time of radiographic examination. The positive medial cortex support was more reliable with less reduction loss than its neutral counterpart, and the anterior cortex contact was more predictive than the medial cortex for final results. As incorporation the bearing of cortex apposition and using a 4-point score, CRQC demonstrated more efficacy and was gradually accepted and applied in the evaluation of trochanteric fracture reduction quality. Postoperative stability score (8 points) provided a assessment tool for early weight-bearing in safety to prevent mechanical failure. CONCLUSION Anteromedial cortical support reduction is a key point for stability reconstruction in the treatment of trochanteric femur fractures. Evidence has definitely shown that non-negative (positive and neutral) is superior to negative (loss of cortical support). There is a tendency that positive cortex support is superior to neutral, but high quality study with large sample size is needed for a clear conclusion.

Objective To investigate the influence of intravenous esketamine infusion on anesthetic effect and awakening quality in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for prostate cancer.Methods One hundred and twenty patients with laparoscopic radical prostatectomy were selected and divided into the esketamine group(group E)and control group(group C)by the random number table method,60 ca-ses in each group.The group E used esketamine for anesthesia induction and maintenance,while the group C received the same amount of physiological saline at the same time during operation process as control.The es-ketamine pumping infusion or normal saline in the two groups was stopped at 30 min before operation end.In addition,the types and doses of other drugs used during the induction and maintenance phase of anesthesia were identical between the two groups.The use total amounts of anesthetic drugs during perioperative period were recorded.The heart rate(HR)and mean arterial pressure(MAP)were recorded before operation(T1),instantly before tracheal intubation(T2),at 1 min after tracheal intubation(T3),1 h during surgery(T4),end of skin suture(T5),and 5 min after extubation(T6)in the two groups respectively;the anesthetic recovery time after extubation was recorded.The Riker sedation and restlessness score was used to conduct the agita-tion evaluation,the incidence rates of agitation and bucking and the resuscitation room stay time were recor-ded.The pain VAS score was used to conduct the pain evaluation in the patients.The incidence rates of ad-verse events such as respiratory depression,shiverring,nausea,vomiting,drowsiness after extubation were re-corded.Results The perioperative doses of resutanil and propofol in the group E were significantly lower than those in the group C,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).HR and MAP at T2 in the group E were higher than those in the group C,while HR and MAP at T3 in the group E were lower than those in the group C.The recovery time after extubation in the group E was longer than that in the group C,the agitation incidence rate,acute bucking incidence rate and VAS score were lower,the stay time in the recov-ery room was shorter.The incidence rate of drowsiness in the group E was significantly higher than that in the group C(P＜0.05).The incidence rates of other adverse events had no statistical differnece(P＞0.05).Con-clusion Esketamine is safe and effective in the elderly patients with laparoscopic prostate cancer surgery,which is conducive to stabilize the hemodynamic parameters and reduce the incidence rate of agitation and buc-king.

Epigenomic imbalance drives abnormal transcriptional processes,promoting the onset and progression of cancer.Although defective gene regulation generally affects carcinogenesis and tumor suppression networks,tumor immunogenicity and immune cells involved in antitumor responses may also be affected by epigenomic changes,which may have significant implications for the development and application of epigenetic therapy,cancer immunotherapy,and their combinations.Herein,we focus on the impact of epigenetic regulation on tumor immune cell function and the role of key abnormal epigenetic processes,DNA methylation,histone post-translational modification,and chromatin structure in tumor immunogenicity,and introduce these epigenetic research methods.We emphasize the value of small-molecule inhibitors of epigenetic modulators in enhancing antitumor immune responses and discuss the challenges of developing treatment plans that combine epigenetic therapy and immuno-therapy through the complex interaction between cancer epigenetics and cancer immunology.
