Rotator cuff injury is a shoulder disease most commonly seen with the elderly, and as China enters an aging society, the number of patients with rotator cuff injury is rapidly increasing. For patients with poor results of conservative treatment and serious conditions, arthroscopic rotator cuff repair has become the first choice due to less trauma and better efficacy. However, the rehabilitation exercise time required for postoperative functional recovery is long, and at the same time, the existence of a series of complications seriously affects patients' postoperative recovery and quality of life. The purpose of this article is to summarize the complications and preventive measures after arthroscopic rotator cuff injury repair, and to provide help for the diagnosis and treatment of postoperative complications and postoperative rehabilitation.

Objective:To explore the association between childhood trauma and prefrontal cortex functional networks in early adulthood using functional near-infrared spectroscopy(fNIRS).Methods:Twenty-eight individu-als with childhood trauma comprised the trauma group,while 32 without trauma formed the control group.The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire(CTQ)assessed abuse and neglect,the Ruminative Responses Scale(RRS)meas-ured repetitive thinking about negative events,and the Iowa Gambling Task(IGT)evaluated decision-making tend-encies.fNIRS data collected during the IGT were used to calculate degree centrality(DC),betweenness centrality(BC),and local efficiency(LE)in prefrontal networks.Mediation analysis explored relationships among childhood trauma,brain function(DC,BC,LE),and ruminative thinking.Results:Compared to controls,the trauma group had decreased DC in bilateral dorsolateral prefrontal cortices,increased DC,BC,and LE in the right inferior frontal gy-rus,and elevated LE in the bilateral frontal poles.BC and LE in the right inferior frontal gyrus partially mediated the relationship between CTQ sexual abuse and RRS scores(48.57％and 41.43％,respectively).Conclusion:Child-hood trauma is significantly associated with changes in prefrontal network properties in early adulthood.Sexual a-buse,in particular,may influence emotional regulation and cognitive functions by altering the network attributes of the right inferior frontal gyrus.

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a common microvascular complication of diabetes. "Internal heat leading to zheng" is the core pathogenesis of DKD, while "glucose toxicity" is transformed from subtle substances through "internal heat" and the cementation of various pathological products, which is pivotal to the transformation of diabetes to DKD. "Glucose toxicity" is characterized by deep and widespread heat, caused by various pathological factors, and its sticky nature makes it difficult to resolve, which can cause severe damage to the kidney collaterals. In the early stage of "glucose toxicity", it is yang pathogen, which can be transformed into yin pathogen in the later stage with disease progression. In clinical practice, treatment should be based on disease staging, with attention on grasping the pathogenesis of "internal heat leading to zheng" and identifying the nature of "glucose toxicity". During the diabetic period, clearing heat is the primary method, often using modified Yueju Pill and Dachaihu Decoction. In the early stage of DKD, treatment primarily focuses on clearing and penetrating latent heat to treat DKD, aiming to prevent toxic heat from transitioning from qi to blood. The approach emphasizes clearing heat and re-penetrating, detoxification, and re-clearing, often using a self-made modified Qingre Xiaozheng Decoction. In the middle and late stages of DKD, the focus shifts to clearing heat, eliminating zheng, strengthening vital qi, and dispelling turbidity, with commonly used treatments including the self-made modified Xiezhuo Xiaozheng Formula, Jingui Shenqi Pill, and Zhenwu Decoction.

Objective: To investigate the impact of childhood traumatic experiences on individual risktaking decisions in early adulthood using functional nearinfrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), so as to provide the reference for clarifying the brain mechanisms underlying the impact of childhood trauma on individual risky decision. Methods: From December 2023 to March 2024, 28 children with childhood trauma experiences (trauma group) and 32 healthy college students (control group) were selected from Jining Medical University by a combination of stratified descent and convenient sampling methods. All subjects participated in the Iowa Game task fNIRS scanning. The brain activation, functional connectivity, graph theory properties (degree centrality, betweenness centrality, and local efficiency), and Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis were performed by using preprocessing fNIRS data. Results: Compared with control group, trauma group showed significantly fewer choice times in the inferior deck (Z=-0.88), and showed significantly decreased activation levels in the right frontalpolar (Z=-2.59), as well as showed significant decreased functional connectivity between left dorsolateral prefrontal and in right dorsolateral prefrontal (Z=-3.78), and between left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the right frontal pole (Z=-3.68)(P<0.05). The central index of right inferior frontal gyrus in the trauma group was higher than that in the control group, while the central index of left and right dorsolateral frontal lobes was lower than that in the control group (Z=2.13, -2.53, -2.12, P<0.05). The centrality index of the right inferior frontal gyrus in the trauma group was higher than that in the control group (Z=2.47, P<0.05). The local efficiency indicators of the right inferior frontal gyrus, left and right frontal pole in the trauma group were higher than those in the control group (Z=2.51, 2.17, 2.53, P<0.05). The results of the ROC curve analysis showed that the local efficiency achieved the highest area under the curve (AUC=0.68). Conclusions Young adults with childhood trauma experience tend to choose lower loss, and the frontal pole shows a lack of activation in the whole process of risk decision performance. The abnormalities in the brain connectivity and network properties might be the neural basis of excessive defense mechanisms that childhood trauma leads to risky decisions.

Experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of garlic, both fresh and old, on hypercholesterolemia. Forty healthy rabbits were equally divided into four groups, namely control, cholesterol, fresh garlic and old garlic. Except the control group, each rabbit in the other three groups was given 0.5g of cholesterol every day. The rabbits of fresh and old garlic groups were fed in addition respectively with fresh garlic, and garlic that had been stored for seven months, the doses being 2g for each. The results showed that fresh garlic had a significant effect of reducing diet-induced hypercholesterolemia and diminishing arteriosclerotic changes in aorta, but old garlic failed to show such effects.During the 50-day period when rabbits were fed with fresh or old garlic no toxic reaction was observed.
