Objective:To study the influence of image panel of different source image distances(SID)of beam central axis of Portal Dosimetry(PD)dose verification system on the verification of volumetric modulated arc therapy(VMAT)plan,so as to provide reference for dose verification in selecting the appropriate SID position and evaluation criteria.Methods:From July 2022 to May 2024,10 patients,who received radiotherapy on tumor at different-site in Specialized Medical Center of the Chinese People's Armed Police Force,were selected.All patients underwent VMAT.Ten simulated dose verification plans were established according to the data of patients,with a total of 10 arcs.The non-crystalline silicon image panel was calibrated at 0,-30,-40,-50 and-60 cm from the isocenter on the beam central axis,and the verification plans of PD system were established.Dose verification was carried out using electronic portal imaging device(EPID)(a-Si EPID)of non-crystalline silicon image panel that was onboard by accelerator.The γ pass rates under the standards of 3%/3 mm and 3%/2 mm were compared and analyzed.Results:Under the evaluation standard of 3%/3 mm,the γ pass rates of the collected doses were(98.93±0.81)%,(94.77±9.00)%,(92.18±11.34)%,(89.72±12.54)%and(87.05±13.06)%when the SID values were respectively 100,130,140,150 and 160 cm,which were all higher than these under the evaluation standard of 3%/2 mm,and the differences were statistically significant(t=2.75,3.44,3.59,4.16,6.47,P<0.05).There were significant differences between the average γ pass rate of the collected dose under evaluation standards of 3%/3 mm and 3%/2 mm when SID was 100cm,and the 100%of γ pass rate(t=-3.21,-3.62,P<0.05),while the differences of the obtained γ pass rates among other SID positions were not statistically significant(P>0.05).Conclusion:Under the evaluation standards of 3%/3 mm and 3%/2 mm,the γ pass rate of the collected dose at SID 100 cm is the highest.The γ pass rate of the collected dose at SID 130 cm can meet the basically clinical requirements.In EPID dose verification,the collection for dose should be prioritized for selection when SID was 100 cm,and the γ pass rate of dose verification is higher,the influence of interference is less at this time,which verification results have higher credibility.

Bone tissue engineering(BTE)is expected to be used as an autologous bone graft substitute for bone defects,and in the se-lection of BTE scaffold materials,collagen(Col)and hydroxyapatite(HA)have attracted attention due to their unique biomimetic ad-vantages.Collagen/hydroxyapatite(CHA)composite scaffolds made by combining the two have been shown to have excellent biocompat-ibility and bone-enhancing potential in various in vitro,in vivo,and clinical studies.With the development of three-dimensional(3D)printing technology in the field of tissue engineering,bone scaffolds constructed using 3D printing methods have been shown to possess superior clinical potential.This review describes new advances in 3D printed CHA composite scaffolds and introduces the application of 3D printed CHA scaffolds in oral and maxillofacial bone regenerative repair.

Endoplasmic reticulum(ER)is the predominant membrane structure in eukaryotic cells and is a key or-ganelle for the occurrence of important intracellular physiological processes.Under the action of various internal and ex-ternal factors,the homeostasis of ER is disrupted to block protein processing and transport,and the accumulation of unfol-ded or misfolded proteins in the ER lumen,forms endoplasmic reticulum stress(ERS)and triggers the unfolded protein re-sponse(UPR).Moderate ERS reduces protein synthesis,promotes protein degradation,and increases molecular chaper-ones that assist protein folding through the UPR signaling pathway,ultimately relieving ER stress.However,if the ERS is too strong or prolonged and exceeds the cell's ability to regulate itself,the UPR can initiate apoptosis and lead to diseases.Numerous studies have shown that ERS is closely associated with the development of several cardiovascular diseases(CVD).This review focuses on the research progress of UPR in several common types of CVD and targets UPR as a po-tential therapeutic approach for CVD.

This study aims to investigate the protective effect of resveratrol against liver injury in hindlimb unloading rats. Thirty 2-month-old male SD rats were randomly divided into normal group (Control), hindlimb unloading model group (Model), and hindlimb unloading+resveratrol administration group (Model+Res). The Model + Res group was injected intraperitoneally with 30 mg/kg of resveratrol, and the Control and Model groups were injected intraperitoneally with an equal volume of 0.9% NaCl. Liver tissues were collected after 28 days and analyzed for oxidative stress, inflammatory factors, energy metabolism indices, Na ⁺-K ⁺-ATPase and Ca ²⁺-Mg ²⁺-ATPase activity, and morphological changes were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining. The protein expression levels of Bax, Bcl-2, p-PI3K, PI3K, p-AKT, and AKT were detected by Western blotting. Compared with the Control group, hepatocytes in the Model group showed swelling, abnormal morphology, nuclear consolidation, and cell membrane disruption. Oxidative stress, inflammatory factor levels, hepatic glycogen accumulation, and energy metabolism were increased in the liver tissues of the Model group, while resveratrol treatment significantly reversed these changes. The results of Western blotting showed that resveratrol significantly reduced the expression of Bax and increased the expression levels of Bcl-2, and the proteins of p-PI3K/PI3K and p-AKT/AKT expression levels. It is suggested that 28 days of hindlimb unloading treatment could lead to liver tissue injury in rats, which is manifested as oxidative stress, inflammatory response, energy metabolism disorder and increased apoptosis level, and resveratrol has a certain mitigating effect on this.

Objective: To observe the safety and efficiency of face-lift combined with fat grafting in facial rejuvenation. Methods: We performed a retrospective study, which included 23 patients. SMAS suspension and multi-site suspension were combined to correct the nasolabial fold, mid-cheek aging and malar mounds. Structural fat grafting was performed to treat the volume loss in mid-face. Results: All patients demonstrated a significant improvement in midfacial appearance. No infection or nerve injury were found in this study. Only three patients did not get primary healing in temple region, which led to temporal hair loss from secondary healing. Conclusions This study demonstrates that fat grafting and multiple layers face-lift are efficient method for facial rejuvenation. These approaches appear to be very promising for facial anti-aging techniques.

Objective To explore application of our self-designed U-shaped transdermal surgical navigator based on three-dimensional reverse design in cannulated screwing for femoral neck fracture Methods A retrospective study was done of 5 patients with femoral neck fracture who had been treated from August 2016 to March 2017.They were 3 men and 2 women,aged from 33 to 60 years (average,46.5 years).Thin layer CT scanning was conducted on the patients' affected hip (at the left side in 2 cases and at the right side in 3).Based on their CT data,3D design software and 3D printing technique were used to manufacture the U-shaped transdermal surgical navigator and a real-sized model of the fracture.Operations were simulated using the U-shaped transdermal surgical navigator on the fracture model to determine the angle,depth and location of the screwing.Fixation of the fracture with cannulated screws was conducted after confirmation of satisfactory surgical parameters.The postoperative X-ray films of the patients were reviewed.Evaluations were conducted of the screw position,operating time,volume of operative bleeding,and number of intraoperative X-ray shots.Results The screw positions in the 5 patients were consistent with their preoperative design.Four patients had only one shot of fluoroscopy and one patient 3 shots.Their operating time ranged from 15 to 30 minutes,averaging 22.5 minutes;their bleeding ranged from 5 to 10 mL,averaging 7.5 mL.The 5 patients were followed up for an average of 4.5 months (from 3 to 6 months).By the Harris scoring at their final follow-ups,one was excellent,3 good and one fair.No complications like pain,functional impairment of the joint,or collapse or necrosis of the femoral head occurred during the follow-up.Conclusions Our self-designed U-shaped transdermal surgical navigator based on three-dimensional reverse design can significandy improve the accuracy and safety of the cannulated screwing for femoral neck fractures.The operation is minimally invasive,reducing operating time and intraoperative blood loss.

Objective To study the postmortem distribution of Bromadiolone and its metabolite-Benzylideneacetone in dogs and provide an experimental evidence for the sampling of Bromadiolone poisoning cases. Methods The dogs were given 2LD50 and 4LD50 Bromadiolone by intragastric administration. Anatomy was conducted immediately after death and samples of body fluids and viscera (heart blood; peripheral blood, bile, urine, heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, brain, urinary bladder, left leg muscle, stomach, stomach contents, pancreas) were collected and detected after the dogs poisoning death. The Bromadiolon and its metabolite-Benzylideneacetone contents in samples were analyzed by GC/MS. Results Hemorrhagic symptoms came out at 3d after Bromadiolone delivery and deaths occurred at (178.40±20.94)h after intoxication. The postmortem distribution of Bromadiolon and its metabolite-Benzylideneacetone in dogs was as following: 2LD50 Bromadiolon: bile>urine, liver, heart, kidney>heart blood, peripheral blood, spleen, lung and so on. Benzylideneacetone: the content in bile, urine, heart blood, peripheral blood, lung, stomach contents are higher. 4LD50 Bromadiolon: bile, urine>liver, peripheral blood>heart blood, stomach contents and others. Benzylideneacetone:contents in bile, urine and lung are higher. Conclusion The postmortem distribution of Bromadiolon and its metabolite-Benzylideneacetone in dogs is uneven, contents in bile, urine, liver, heart blood and peripheral blood are higher, whichare suggested for forensic toxicological analysis in Bromadiolon poisonig case.
