Objective:To compare the efficacy of different minimally invasive surgical approaches for the treatment of lumbar disc herniation (LDH).Methods:This study was a network meta-analysis (NMA). Databases the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database, VIP Database, China Biology Medicine disc (CBM), PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science from database inception to December 22, 2024 were searched. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for LDH were retrieved using a combination of subject headings and free-text terms. Literature was screened according to predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The NMA was conducted within a Bayesian framework. Direct and indirect comparisons among the MIS approaches were presented using league tabulations. Cumulative ranking probability plots were generated using the ggplot2 package in R software. Treatment efficacy outcomes were ranked based on the surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) value, ranging from 0 to 100%; a SUCRA value closer to 100% indicates a more favorable intervention.Results:A total of 15 RCTs were finally included. The interventions assessed were percutaneous endoscopic interlaminar discectomy (PEID), percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal discectomy (PETD), microendoscopic discectomy (MED), unilateral biportal endoscopy (UBE), transforaminal discectomy (TD), and microscopic discectomy (MD). Length of hospital stay (reported in 13 studies, n=1 414): ranked from the shortest to the longest were PETD, PEID, TD, MD, UBE, MED (SUCRA: 82.03%, 78.37%, 72.06%, 43.86%, 11.51%, 12.16%). Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) at 3 months postoperatively (reported in 10 studies, n=1 004): ranked from the lowest to the highest ODI were MD, UBE, PEID, TD, MED, PETD (SUCRA: 88.33%, 50.56%, 50.36%, 47.59%, 32.13%, 31.03%). ODI at 1 year postoperatively (reported in 10 studies, n=960): ranked from the lowest to the highest were PEID, MD, TD, MED, PETD, UBE (SUCRA: 74.03%, 66.56%, 43.22%, 42.63%, 40.75%, 32.80%). Surgical complications (reported in 12 studies, n=1 412): ranked from the lowest to the highest complication rate were MD, TD, UBE, PETD, PEID, MED (SUCRA: 81.60%, 76.55%, 72.86%, 24.43%, 23.41%, 20.97%). Conclusions:The efficacy of different MIS approaches for LDH varies. PETD is associated with the shortest postoperative hospital stay, MD is associated with the lowest ODI at 3 months and the lowest complication rate, PEID is associated with the lowest ODI at 1 year postoperatively.

Objective:To investigate the mosquito-borne viruses carried by mosquito specimens collected from Huachuan county and Huanan county in Heilongjiang province.Methods:Mosquito samples were collected locally in 2023 and processed in the laboratory. Homogenates of the mosquitoes were inoculated into cells for virus isolation, followed by molecular and bioinformatics analyses of the viral isolates.Results:In 2023, ten viral isolates were obtained from Anopheles sinensis specimens collected in Heilongjiang province, China. Among these isolates, one was identified as Culex flavivirus (CxFV), one as Menghai rhabdovirus (MRV), and eight as Nam Dinh virus (NDiV). The phylogenetic analysis showed that CxFV belongs to genotype I and is clustered with the strains isolated from Liaoning province in 2011 and Ningxia Hui autonomous Region in 2019 in the same evolutionary branch, with amino acid similarity ranging from 98.2% to 99.2% and nucleotide similarity ranging from 98.8% to 99.2%. The MRV strain belongs to the same evolutionary subclade as the strain detected in Guangdong, with both nucleotide and amino acid similarity of 98.0%. Eight NDiV isolates clustered with the South Korean isolates on the same evolutionary branch, forming an independent evolutionary sub-branch. The nucleotide similarity among these eight isolates ranged from 98.5% to 99.7%, while the amino acid similarity ranged from 98.1% to 99.7%. In comparison, when matched with other NDiV isolates from China, the nucleotide similarity of these eight isolates ranged from 94.1% to 97.8%, and the amino acid similarity ranged from 93.5% to 97.7%.Conclusions:This study represents the first isolation of CxFV, MRV, and NDiV in Heilongjiang province, China, and the findings provide fundamental data for the prevention and control of mosquito-borne viral diseases in this region.

Objective:To establish a method for the rapid detection of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) by recombinase-aid amplification (RAA) combined with Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas12a system.Methods:Clinical samples of suspected herpes zoster in Shandong province and Shanghai from 2023 to 2024 were collected, nucleic acids of positive samples were extracted, RAA-specific primers and crRNA (CRISPR RNA, crRNA) were designed for the conserved region of VZV, and the fluorescence intensity generated by Cas12a non-specific cleavage of single-stranded fluorescent probes was used to screen highly sensitive crRNAs and optimize the concentrations of crRNA, Cas12a and ssDNA probes. The sensitivity and reproducibility of the RAA-CRISPR/Cas12a detection method were evaluated by using synthesized plasmids and clinical samples, and the specificity of the method was evaluated by using other viral nucleic acids. The method was used to detect clinical samples by using the method and quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) method, and the detection rate and consistency of the two method were compared.Results:The highly sensitive crRNA-4 was screened from the four crRNAs designed, and a VZV detection method for RAA-CRISPR/CAS12a based on fluorescence intensity measurement was established, which could be detected at 37℃ in 45 min, and the sensitivity of the detection could reach 10 copies/μL, a minimum clinical sample with a Ct value of 38.980 can be detected. It has high specificity and no cross-reactivity with Adenovirus 7, Herpes simplex virus type I, Herpes simplex virus type II, Coxsackieviruses A16, Cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, Measles virus, Mumps virus, Enterovirus 71, Japanese encephalitis virus genotype 5. It has good stability, and can be successfully detected in low, medium and high concentrations of viral positive plasmids with good consistency. The detection rate of the clinically positive samples was 100%, which was completely consistent with the qPCR test result.Conclusions:RAA isothermal amplification technology combined with CRISPR-CAS12a technology was used to establish an accurate method for the detection of VZV virus, which was highly sensitive, specific, and had low requirements for experimental conditions, and could be completed within 45 min, which could provide strong technical support for the early detection of VZV.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy between microscopic varicocelectomy and laparoscopic varicocelectomy in the treatment of varicocele(VC)with male infertility.Methods:A total of 307 patients who were diagnosed with VC complicated with male infertility and admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from October 2018 to October 2022 were recruited for retrospective analysis.The patients were divided into the microscopic group(180 cases)and laparoscopic group(127 cases)according to the surgery method.The pre-and postoperative clinical data of these two groups were analyzed,including the degree of dilatation and reflux time of internal spermatic vein,hemodynamic parameters of testicular capsular artery,proportion of progressive motility spermato-zoa(PR),concentration of spermatozoa,proportion of normal morphology sperm,the pregnancy outcome of spouses and the incidence of complications related with surgery within 2 years postoperatively.Results:All the surgeries for the 307 patients in this study were successful.There was no significant difference in operation time,hospitalization time and management expenses between the microscop-ic group and the laparoscopic group(P＞0.05).Compared to the patients in laparoscopic group,the patients in the microscopic group received a better improvement in venous diameter,reflux time of spermatic veins and hemodynamic parameters of testicular capsular ar-tery(P＜0.05).Moreover,the semen analysis showed that the PR,spermatozoa concentration and proportion of normal morphology sperm in the microscopic group were also obviously increased than those in the laparoscopic group(P＜0.05).During the 2-year fol-low-up period,the conception rate of spouses in the microscopic group was 67.2％,while only 47.2％in the laparoscopic group,in which the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Besides,the time-to-pregnancy(TTP)within 2 years postoperatively in the microscopic group was significantly shorter than that in the laparoscopic group(P＜0.05).Meanwhile,the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes in the microscopic group was also significantly lower than that in the laparoscopic group(P＜0.05).It is worth mentioned that the spontaneous conception rate of spouses with successful pregnancy in the microscopic group was also significantly higher than that in the laparoscopic group(P＜0.05).Severe complication such as testicular atrophy,bleeding and infection did not appear in both of two groups.However,the incidences of testicular hydrocele and recurrence of VC postoperatively in the laparoscopic group were significantly higher than those in the microscopic group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Both microscopic varicocelectomy and laparoscopic varicocelectomy can be applied to the management of VC combined with male infertility.But microscopic varicocelectomy showed better clinical efficacy in improving the testicular hemodynamic parameters,semen quality,pregnancy outcome and postopera-tive complications,which is worthy of further clinical applications.
