Objective To explore the effect of bone grafting combined with locking plate fixation on the postoperative rehabilitation of patients with comminuted proximal humerus fractures.Methods A total of 84 patients with comminuted proximal humerus fractures who underwent surgery at Armed Forces Jiangxi General Hospital from January 2022 to July 2024 were enrolled.Using a randomized digital table method,the patients were divided into conventional group(n=42)and combined group(n=42).The combined group received bone grafting combined with locking plate fixation,while conventional group underwent single locked plate internal fixation.Perioperative indicators,shoulder joint function,range of motion,quality of life,and complications were compared between two groups.Results Compared with conventional group,intraoperative blood loss,surgical duration were longer while fracture healing time and hospitalization period were shorter in combined group,as well as postoperative drainage volume was lower(P＜0.05).Shoulder joint function of combined group was better than that of conventional group(P＜0.05).At 3 months after surgery,the short form health survey(SF-36)scores of patients in both groups were higher than those before surgery,and the SF-36 score of combined group was higher than that of conventional group(P＜0.05).The total incidence of complications in combined group was lower than that in conventional group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Bone grafting combined with locking plate fixation for comminuted proximal humerus fractures is more safe,can shorten hospitalization time and fracture healing time,promote shoulder joint function improvement,improve patients' shoulder joint activity and quality of life.

ObjectiveTo observe the antidepressant effect of Chaihu Shugansan combined with ferulic acid on the rat model of chronic unpredictable mild stress （CUMS） and explore the mechanism from the histomorphology of frontal cortex， expression of key molecules in the brain-derived neurotrophic factor （BDNF）/tyrosine kinase receptor B （TrkB） signaling pathway， and changes in monoamine neurotransmitter levels. MethodsSixty adult male SD rats were randomized into six groups （n=10）： blank control， depression model， Chaihu Shugansan （3.3 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， ferulic acid （50 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， Chaihu Shugansan （3.3 g·kg^-1·d^-1） + ferulic acid （50 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， and fluoxetine （2.1 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）. Rats in other groups except the blank control group were subjected to a mild chronic unpredictable stress stimulus every day. Seven stimuli were used， including fasting with free access to water for 24 h， water deprivation with free access to food for 24 h， wetting the bedding with water in the cage， restraint for 3 h， tail clamping for 1 min， swimming in ice water at 4 ℃， and day and night reversal. Each stimulus was used 1 to 3 times， and the modeling lasted for a total of 21 days. At the same time of stimulation， rats in each medication group were treated with corresponding agents by gavage， while those in the blank control group and the depression model group received equal volumes of normal saline by gavage. The open field test， sucrose preference test， and forced swimming test were conducted before and after modeling. The rats were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of 3% pentobarbital sodium， and the frontal cortex was isolated on ice. The mRNA and protein levels of BDNF， TrkB， and cyclic adenosine monophosphate-responsive element-binding protein （CREB） in the frontal cortex were determined by Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot， respectively. The levels of monoamine neurotransmitters 5-hydroxytryptamine （5-HT）， dopamine （DA）， and norepinephrine （NE） in the frontal cortex were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Light microscopy was employed to observe the histopathological changes in the frontal cortex. ResultsCompared with the blank control group， the depression model group showed reduced body mass （P<0.05， P<0.01）， decreased number of crossings and rearings in the open field test and sucrose preference （P<0.01）， prolonged time of immobility in the forced swimming test （P<0.01）， reduced neuronal cells， increased necrotic cells， and darkening cell staining in the frontal cortex， down-regulated mRNA and protein levels of BDNF， TrkB， CREB， and lowered levels of 5-HT， NE， and DA in the frontal cortex （P<0.01）. Compared with the depression model group， each intervention group showed improved general state， increased body mass （P<0.05）， increased number of crossings （P<0.05）， shortened immobility time in the forced swimming test （P<0.01）， increased neuronal cells， reduced necrotic cells， and lightened cellular staining in the frontal cortex， up-regulated mRNA and protein levels of BDNF， TrkB and CREB， and elevated levels of 5-HT， NE， and DA in the frontal cortex （P<0.01）. Moreover， the Chaihu Shugansan + ferulic acid group outperformed the Chaihu Shugansan group and the ferulic acid group in increasing the body mass and the 5-HT content in the frontal cortex （P<0.05）. The combination group outperformed the Chaihu Shugansan group regarding the number of rearings and up-regulation in the mRNA level of BDNF in the frontal cortex （P<0.05）， and it was superior to the ferulic acid group in terms of shortening the immobility time in the forced swimming test， up-regulating the mRNA levels of BDNF， TrkB， and CREB and the protein levels of BDNF and CREB in the frontal cortex， and increasing the DA content in the frontal cortex （P<0.05）. ConclusionChaihu Shugansan combined with ferulic acid can exert antidepressant effect on the rat model of CUMS by regulating the BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway and monoamine neurotransmitter content in the frontal cortex. Moreover， the antidepressant effect of Chaihu Shugansan combined with ferulic acid was more significant than that of Chaihu Shugansan and ferulic acid used alone.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy(FURL)by using flexible ureteroscope combined with flexible vacuum suction ureteral access sheath in the treatment of renal calculi with diameter 3-4.5 cm and CT value≤1000 HU.Methods A Retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 42 patients with 3-4.5 cm renal calculi and CT value≤1000 HU from March 2023 to March 2025.A disposable flexible ureteroscope combined with flexible vacuum suction ureteral access sheath was used to fragment the calculi with holmium laser,and the fragments were then aspirated.Results Two cases had their stones left untreated when the operation time exceeded 2.5 h,resulting in the termination of the surgery.The remaining40 cases were successfully treated with the operation.The operation time was 85-150 min,with an average of(113.9±17.8)min.The postoperative hospital stay was2-5 d,with an average of(2.2±0.6)d.Postoperative fever occurred in 2 cases,and hematuria appeared in 5 cases,all of which were cured by conservative treatment.On the first postoperative day,residual stones were found in 4 cases.At 1 month after surgery,residual stones were detected in 3 cases.One case was treated with extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy(ESWL)and the stones were expelled after 1 month.The other 2 cases(those whose surgery was terminated)underwent a second FURL and achieved successful stone clearance.Conclusion FURL for 3-4.5 cm renal calculi with CT value≤1000 HU by using flexible ureteroscope combined with flexible vacuum suction ureteral access sheath is safe and effective.

[Objective] To evaluate the efficacy and safety of sacral neuromodulation (SNM) in the treatment of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) complicated with underactive bladder (UAB) who respond poorly to transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). [Methods] A retrospective analysis was performed on 10 patients with BPH and UAB treated with TURP by the same surgeon in Zhongda Hospital Southeast University during Jan.2018 and Jan.2023.The residual urine volume was not significantly relieved after operation, and the maximum urine flow rate and urine volume per discharge were not significantly improved.All patients underwent phase I SNM, and urinary diaries were recorded before and after surgery to observe the average daily frequency of urination, volume per urination, maximum urine flow rate, and residual urine volume. [Results] The operation time was (97.6±11.2) min.During the postoperative test of 2-4 weeks, if the residual urine volume reduction by more than 50% was deemed as effective, SNM was effective in 6 patients (60.0%). Compared with preoperative results, the daily frequency of urination [(20.2±3.8) times vs. (13.2±3.2) times], volume per urination [(119.2±56.7) mL vs. (246.5±59.2) mL], maximum urine flow rate [(8.7±1.5) mL/s vs. (16.5±2.6) mL/s], and residual urine volume [(222.5±55.0) mL vs. (80.8±16.0) mL] were significantly improved, with statistical significance (P<0.05). There were no complications such as bleeding, infection, fever or pain.The 6 patients who had effective outcomes successfully completed phase II surgery, and the fistula was removed.During the follow-up of 1 year, the curative effect was stable, and there were no complications such as electrode displacement, incision infection, or pain in the irritation sites.The residual urine volume of the other 4 unsuccessful patients did not improve significantly, and the electrodes were removed and the vesicostomy tube was retained. [Conclusion] SNM is safe and effective in the treatment of BPH with UAB patients with poor curative effects after TURP.

Purpose To evaluate the value of multimodality MRI-based nomogram model for predicting peritumoral brain tissue invasion in atypical meningioma.Materials and Methods A total of 187 patients with pathologically diagnosed atypical meningioma in the First Affiliated Hospital Fujian Medical University from January 2018 to January 2023 were retrospectively enrolled,including 130 cases of peritumoral brain tissue invasion and 57 cases of none peritumoral brain tissue invasion.Clinical data and multimodality MRI features,including age,gender,tumor location,maximum diameter,peritumoral oedema,tumor-brain interface,lobulated sign,dural tail sign,cyst degeneration/necrosis,relative minimum apparent diffusion coefficient(rADCmin)and intratumoral susceptibility signal were analyzed.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were performed to screen the independent predictors of peritumoral brain tissue invasion in atypical meningioma,then a multimodality MRI prediction model was constructed,and was visualized as a nomogram.The prediction performance of multimodality MRI-based nomogram model and each independent predictor were assessed using receiver operating characteristic curve.Results The maximum diameter(OR=0.705,95%CI 0.539-0.920,P=0.010),peritumoral oedema(OR=1.333,95%CI 1.095-1.624,P=0.004),tumor-brain interface(OR=5.121,95%CI 2.045-12.806,P＜0.001)and rADCmin(OR=0.126,95%CI 0.033-0.483,P=0.002)were independent predictors of peritumoral brain tissue invasion in atypical meningioma.The area under the curve,sensitivity and specificity of the multimodality MRI-based nomogram model for predicting peritumoral brain tissue invasion in atypical meningioma was 0.80(95%CI 0.73-0.88),87.69%and 66.67%,respectively.The multimodality MRI-based nomogram model showed significantly higher area under the curve than that of the maximum diameter,peritumoral oedema,tumor-brain interface and rADCmin of atypical meningioma(all Z=3.665,3.904,4.359,3.701,P＜0.05).Conclusion The multimodality MRI-based nomogram model may be helpful for the prediction of peritumoral brain tissue invasion in atypical meningioma.

Objective To measure the three-dimensional(3D)motion of the knee joint in healthy people and patients after total knee arthroplasty(TKA).Methods The coordinate system for the tibia and femur of the knee joint was established,and the marking points were pasted at the bone landmarks.Then the 3D motion of human knee joint was measured by biplane high-speed photogrammetry,and the data were processed according to the coordinate transformation.Results The peak values of adduction and abduction,internal and external rotation,internal and external translation,and proximal and distal movement of the artificial knee joint were larger than those of the healthy knee joint(P<0.05),but there was no statitistic difference in posterior displacement between the artificial and healthy knee joints(P=0.05).Conclusions By measuring the knee joint motion,not only the difference in knee joint motion between the healthy volunteers and TKA patients was revealed,but also the effectiveness of biplane high-speed photography in knee joint kinematic measurement was demonstrated.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and risk factors of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with diquat mixed with paraquat poisoning.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 210 patients admitted to the department of emergency at our hospital with paraquat, diquat or mixed poisoning from January 20, 2016, to June 10, 2024. Based on the detection results of plasma toxicants, patients were categorized into three groups: the paraquat group (PQ group), and the diquat group (DQ group), the diquat-paraquat mixed group (mixed group). We compared clinical indices, occurrence, and severity of AKI among these groups. In the mixed group, patients were further divided into AKI and non-AKI subgroups based on the presence of AKI during hospitalization, and differences in clinical indices between these subgroups were analyzed. Univariate logistic regression and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (Lasso) regressions were used to screen risk factors, and multivariate logistic regression was applied to establish the model. ROC curves were generated, and factors influencing AKI occurrence in the mixed group were identified.Results:A total of 88 patients were included in the PQ group, 28 in the DQ group, and 57 in the mixed group. Significant differences were observed among the three groups in terms of age, mortality rate, ingestion amount, body mass index(BMI), occurrence of AKI, the incidence of organ support therapy, SIRS score, PSS score, and APACHE Ⅱ score on admission ( P < 0.05). All three groups exhibited various degrees of AKI, with the mixed group showing a higher proportion and more severe conditions. In the mixed group, compared with the non-AKI group, the AKI group showed significantly higher values for age, number of deaths, ingestion amount, SIRS score, PSS score, APACHE Ⅱ score, plasma PQ concentration on admission, plasma DQ concentration on admission, white blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil count (NEUT), monocyte count (MONO), serum creatinine (SCr), procalcitonin (PCT), c-reactive protein (CRP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), blood lactic acid (Lac), and cystatin C (CysC) ( P < 0.05). Conversely, the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2) were significantly lower in the AKI group ( P < 0.05). Additionally, in the mixed group, SCr levels at various times post-poisoning were significantly higher compared with the non-AKI group ( P < 0.05), showing an increasing trend and peaking at 212.19 ± 101.67 μmol/L on the fifth day after poisoning. Age, ingestion amount, SIRS score on admission, WBC, MONO, and PCO 2 were extracted by Lasso-Logistic regression. Multivariate logistic regression identified ingestion amount and SIRS score on admission as the independent risk factors for the occurrence of AKI in the mixed group. The area under the ROC curve for ingestion amount and SIRS score on admission was 0.991 (95% CI: 0.976-1.000), the sensitivity was 0.940 and the specificity was 1.000. Conclusions:The diquat mixed with paraquat poisoning is associated with a higher incidence and greater severity of AKI compared with poisoning with either PQ or DQ alone. Additionally, ingestion amount and SIRS score on admission have been identified as independent risk factors for the occurrence of AKI in patients with the mixed poisoning. The combined assessment of these two factors improves AKI prediction in patients with the mixed poisoning.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of using stent semi-retrieval technique during mechanical thrombectomy(MT)for acute anterior cerebral artery(ACA)occlusion.Methods We made a retrospective analysis of 38 patients with acute ACA occlusion treated by stent semi-retrieval technique at Tangdu Hospital and Xi'an No.1 Hospital from June 2019 to September 2023.The successful recanalization,first-pass effect(FPE),perioperative complications and postoperative recovery of all the patients were analyzed.Modified thrombolytic test in cerebral infarction(mTICI)was used to evaluate the recanalization(unsuccessful recanalization,mTICI 0-2a;successful recanalization,mTICI 2b-3).FPE was defined as mTICI 3 after one thrombectomy.The clinical outcome was evaluated by modified Rankin Scale(mRS)3 months postoperatively.A good prognosis was defined as a mRS 0-2.Results Of the 38 patients,36(94.7％)got successful recanalization(mTICI 2b-3),with an FPE of 73.7％(28/38).Two cases of mild vascular spasm(5.3％)occurred during the mechanical thrombectomy,which completely relieved without further treatment.None of the 38 patients experienced vascular rupture or dissection,and no thrombus escaped during the thrombus removal process.There was no subarachnoid hemorrhage or parenchymal hemorrhage in the area related to ACA occlusion.Ninety days after operation,14 cases(36.8％)reached good outcome(mRS 0-2),18 cases(47.4％)reached mRS 3-5,and 6 cases(15.8％)died.Conclusion Our preliminary experience suggests that the stent semi-retrieval technique may be a safe and effective method for treating acute anterior cerebral artery occlusion.

Purpose The study aimed to analyze the relationship between MET gene variants and clinicopathologi-cal features in patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods Next-generation sequencing technology was used to detect MET gene variants in NSCLC specimens.The association between MET gene variant status and clini-copathological features was then analyzed.Results Among 1 633 cases of NSCLC,the overall MET mutation rate was 4.53％(74/1 633).Variants were mainly observed in male patients,never-smokers,those older than 60 years,ade-nocarcinoma histology,and patients with TNM stage Ⅲ+Ⅳ disease(P＜0.05).MET gene variant status showed no significant assocication with patient age,sex,smoking history,or pathological subtype(P＞0.05),but was statistical-ly correlated with clinical stage and presence of distant metastasis(P＜0.05).The two major variant types were MET exon 14 skipping and MET amplification,which together accounted for 71.62％of all variants.In addition,MET am-plification was positively correlated with EGFR(P=0.003,rs=0.340)and TP53 mutations(P=0.002,rs=0.362),but showed no correlation with KRAS or ALK gene mutations.In contrast,MET exon 14 skipping was nega-tively correlated with EGFR gene mutations(P＜0.001,rs=-0.409),and showed no significant correlation with KRAS,ALK,or TP53 mutations.Conclusion Different types of MET gene variants(amplification,exon 14 skip-ping,fusion,and others)are significantly associated with clinical advanced clinical stage and distant metastasis in NSCLC,but are independent of patient age,sex,smoking history,and pathological subtype.MET amplification fre-quently co-occur with EGFR and TP53 co-mutations.
