BACKGROUND:The most common complication of traumatic femoral neck fractures after internal fixation is femoral head necrosis.Currently,many studies have reported on the risk factors that affect the occurrence and development of postoperative femoral head necrosis,but there is still a lack of tools to predict the risk of femoral head necrosis after internal fixation of femoral neck fractures.OBJECTIVE:To develop a predictive model that estimates the risk of femoral head necrosis shortly after patients with femoral neck fractures receive cannulated screw internal fixation.METHODS:A retrospective analysis reviewed clinical records of 172 patients who underwent cannulated screw internal fixation for femoral neck fractures at Department of Orthopedics of Mianyang Central Hospital from January 2013 to June 2023.Patients were categorized into two groups based on the presence or absence of femoral head necrosis within one year post-operation:the necrosis group and the non-necrosis group.Univariate analysis,Lasso regression,and multivariate Logistic regression techniques were employed to identify the determinants of femoral head necrosis.A nomogram prediction model was constructed using R language's"rms"package,version 4.0.The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate the discriminatory ability of the model.The Hosmer-Lemeshow test was used to evaluate the goodness of fit of the model,and the decision curve analysis was used to determine its clinical application benefits.Internal validation of the study was conducted using the Bootstrap method,involving 1 000 repeated samplings.To delve deeper into the primary factors influencing femoral head necrosis post-internal fixation of the femoral neck,this paper employed the SHAP method for data set analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The risk factors leading to femoral head necrosis in the short term after cannulated screw fixation of femoral neck fractures include:smoking,diabetes,Garden classification,fracture line location,reduction quality,age,and operation time.(2)The prediction model demonstrated robust performance,evidenced by an area under the curve of 0.940(95％Confidence Interval:0.903 to 0.977),indicating a high level of prediction accuracy.The model achieved a sensitivity of 90.2％and a specificity of 87.6％,indicating that its diagnostic performance was stable.The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test yielded a chi-square value of 6.593 with a P-value of 0.581,confirming that the model's predictions closely align with the observed outcomes.(3)The calibration curve of the model also performed well,and its overall trend was very close to the ideal curve,further proving the high accuracy of the model.(4)The internal validation was carried out by the Bootstrap method with 1 000 repeated samplings,and the area under the curve of the model internal validation was still as high as 0.939,proving that the model had good stability.(5)Through the decision curve,it is found that within the probability threshold range of 1％to 92％,the model can obtain the maximum net benefit value.(6)The SHAP analysis results show that among the risk factors analyzed in this study,the location of the fracture line serves as the most significant predictor of femoral head necrosis following internal fixation with cannulated screws in femoral neck fractures,and subcapital fractures are extremely prone to femoral head necrosis after surgery.(7)It is concluded that the validated prediction model demonstrates strong discriminative power and reliability,offering practical clinical utility.It serves as a useful reference tool for short-term risk assessment of femoral head necrosis following internal fixation of femoral neck fractures.

AIM:To investigate the effect of intrinsic specific transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)signaling on regeneration and repair of myofibers in acute skeletal myositismice model induced by cardiotoxin(CTX).METHODS:One hundred and eighty-six wild C57BL/6 mice and one hundred and thirty-eight mice with conditional knockout of TGF-β receptor 2(TGF-βr2)in myofibers(SM TGF-βr2-/-mice)were selected.CTX injection to anterior tibial muscle(TA)in-duced acute myoinjury in mice.Some SM TGF-βr2-/-mice were given Smad signaling agonist SRI-011381(SRI)intramus-cular injection.All mice were mainly divided into the following groups:control group,SM TGF-βr2-/-group and SM TGF-βr2-/-+SRI group.Twenty-four mice were selected in each group.RT-qPCR and immunofluorescence staining were used to detect the relative mRNA level,protein expression of inflammatory cytokines and low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1(LRP1),respectively,while the relative protein expression of myosin heavy chain 3(MHY3)and embryonic myosine heavy chain(eMHC)in damaged muscle was detected by Western blot and immunofluorescence staining.In vi-tro,after being extracted from neonatal mice,myogenic precursor cells(MPCs)were cultured in an pro-inflammatory mi-lieu and treated with SRI,recombinant mouse extracellular matrix protein 1(rmECM1)alone or in combination.Hereby,they were divided into the following seven groups:control-MPCs group,control-MPCs+LPS group,TGF-βr2-/--MPCs group,TGF-βr2-/--MPCs+LPS group,TGF-βr2-/--MPCs+LPS+SRI group,TGF-βr2-/--MPCs+LPS+rmECM1 group,and TGF-βr2-/--MPCs+LPS+SRI+rmECM1 group.Six mice were selected in each group.RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the relative mRNA level,protein expression of major histocompatibility complex class I molecules(MHC-I/H-2Kb),major histocompatibility complex class II molecules(MHC-II/H2-Eα),Toll-like receptor 3(TLR3),and LRP1.And the relative protein expression of MoyD and myogenin in myotubes was detected by immunofluorescence staining.RE-SULTS:In vivo,compared with control group,SM TGF-βr2-/-group showed the significant upregulation of pro-inflamma-tory cytokines(P<0.05),and the opposite trend of anti-inflammatory cytokines,LRP1,MHY3,eMHC in the injured muscle(P<0.05),with delayed regeneration and repair of myofibers.In vitro,compared with control-MPCs+LPS group,LRP1,MoyD and myogenin significantly downregulated in TGF-βr2-/--MPCs+LPS group,but the downregulation trend was corrected after giving SRI treatment(P<0.05).In addition,compared with the TGF-βr2-/--MPCs+LPS group,the combi-nation of rmECM1 and SRI significantly upregulated the protein expression of MyoD and myogenin(P<0.05).CONCLU-SION:In a mouse model of acute skeletal myositis,intrinsic TGF-β signaling specifically in myofibers regulates local im-mune behavior.It promotes the expression of LRP1 in damaged muscle via Smad2/3 signaling,and LRP1 can then fully bind to ECM1,thereby facilitating muscle regeneration and repair,and improving the prognosis of acute skeletal myositis.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and injury patterns of eye trauma in children and adolescents in China.Methods:A multicenter cross-sectional, retrospective, observational study. Based on the Chinese Eye Trauma Registry database, 189 patients (189 eyes) aged 0-18 years (13.4%, 189/1 412) of 1 412 patients (1 435 eyes) with eye trauma who were hospitalized from January to December 2023 were included in the study. Patients were recruited from 23 tertiary general hospitals or ophthalmology specialty hospitals located in 17 provincial-level administrative regions across six major geographical areas in China (North China, East China, South China, Central China, Northwest China, and Southwest China). The analysis focused on population characteristics, epidemiological features, injury patterns, and visual outcomes of children from different geographical regions and age groups. Among the 189 eyes, 95 eyes underwent secondary surgery. A total of 23 eyes were excluded due to non-cooperation during examination, no light perception, or only light perception. Ultimately, 72 eyes were included in the statistical analysis. Of these, 36 eyes had follow-up data and were used to observe postoperative visual outcomes.Results:Among 189 patients, 143 were males (75.7%, 143/189) and 46 were females (24.3%, 46/189). Age 8.73 (1-18) years old. The gender composition of all age groups was mainly male. The geographical distribution showed that East China had the largest number of cases, 55 (29.1%, 55/189). There were 70 cases (37.0%, 70/189) in 7-10 years old. The type analysis of eye trauma showed that in 189 eyes, mechanical ocular trauma accounted for 130 eyes, of which 105 (80.8%, 105/130) eyes had open globe injuries and 25 (19.2%, 25/130) eyes had closed globe injuries. 122 eyes received emergency surgery within 24 h after injury (accounts for 83.6% of emergency surgical cases, 122/146). In 36 eyes with complete follow-up data, the initial visual acuity distribution was: blind 23 eyes (63.9%), low visual acuity 6 eyes (16.7%), visual acuity ≥0.3 in 7 eyes (19.4%). At the last follow-up, visual acuity improved in 12 eyes (33.3%) with blindness, 8 eyes (22.2%) with low visual acuity, and 16 eyes (44.4%) with visual acuity ≥ 0.3. The final visual outcome showed that the disability rate was 22.2% (8/36) and the blindness rate was 33.3% (12/36).Conclusions:Children and adolescents account for 13.4% of the hospitalized patients with eye trauma in the same period, and there is a significant gender difference (male accounted for 75.7%). There are obvious age-specific distribution rules in the causes, locations and clinical features of eye trauma in children and adolescents of different ages.

Objective:This study explored the effect of nanoparticle-encapsulated curcumin on the highly expressed multidrug resistance gene 1 （MDR1） in a human low-differentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line （CNE2）. Methods:Curcumin/chitosan deoxycholic acid nanoparticles were prepared, and the cells were subjected to different treatments: radiotherapy, empty carriers, curcumin, and curcumin-loaded nanoparticles. Cell survival was analyzed using the clonogenic assay, and assessments of apoptosis, MDR1 levels, and miR593 levels were conducted. Results:The cell survival fractions in the curcumin group and the curcumin-loaded nanoparticles group were significantly reduced. Notably, higher apoptosis rates were observed in cells treated with curcumin or curcumin-loaded nanoparticles compared to those that received only radiotherapy. Moreover, a decreased MDR1 level was noted in both the curcumin group and the curcumin-loaded nanoparticles group, with further reduction in MDR1 expression observed in the nanoparticle group （P<0.05）. Enhanced expression of miR593 was found in the curcumin group and the curcumin-loaded nanoparticles group, with a relatively higher level in the nanoparticle group （P<0.05）. Curcumin encapsulated in nanoparticles exhibited a stronger radiosensitizing effect. The combination of curcumin and radiotherapy effectively inhibited nasopharyngeal carcinoma （NPC） tumor growth, suppressed MDR1 expression, and enhanced miR593 levels. After inhibiting miR593, MDR1 expression increased. The radiosensitizing effect of curcumin-loaded nanoparticles was regulated by miR593 rather than being triggered by MDR1. Conclusion:Curcumin-loaded nanoparticles mediated enhanced expression of miR593, which in turn inhibited the transcription and translation of the MDR1 gene, thereby reducing the radioresistance of NPC and effectively restraining its growth.

Adenomyosis is a common gynecological disease characterized by the invasion of endometrial glands and stroma into the myometrium of uterus, the pathological mechanism of which remains unclear yet. Disturbed lipid metabolism extensively affects abnormal cell proliferation and invasion in various diseases. However, the lipidome signature of human myometrium, which could be crucial in the development of adenomyosis, remains unknown. In this study, we generated the first lipidome profiling of human myometrium using a high-coverage and quantitative lipidomics approach based on ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) coupled with triple quadrupole (QqQ)-mass spectrometry (MS). A total of 317 lipid species were successfully quantified in the myometrial tissues from women with (n = 38) or without (n = 65) adenomyosis who underwent hysterectomy at Peking Union Medical College Hospital (Bejing, China). Up to 83 lipid species showed significant alternations in content between the two groups. These lipid aberrations involved multiple metabolic pathways, and emphasized inflammation, cell migration, and immune dysregulation upon adenomyosis. Moreover, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis found that the combination of five lipid species could accurately distinguished the myometrial samples from women with and without adenomyosis with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.906. Desorption electrospray ionization MS imaging (MSI) further underscored the heterogeneous distributions of these lipid markers in the adenomyosis lesion and adjacent myometrial tissue. Collectively, these results extremely improved our understanding on the molecular basis of adenomyosis, and could shed light on developing potential biomarkers and new therapeutic directions for adenomyosis.

Objective To evaluate the association of different obesity phenotypes and their components with the risk of cognitive impairment in older Chinese adults,and to assess the association between obesity and cognitive impairment in different cognition-related genetic backgrounds.Methods A cross-sectional study based on the West China Health and Aging Cohort was conducted.Logistic regression was applied to estimate the association of obesity phenotypes and components with cognitive impairment in older Chinese adults stratified by APOE gene and polygenic risk scores.Results A total of 7 316 participants were enrolled,of whom 1 820 had cognitive impairment.Weight gains were associated with a reduced risk of cognitive impairment(odds ratio[OR]=0.96,95%CI,0.95-0.97).Being overweight with a normal waist-to-hip ratio was a protective factor for cognition(OR=0.74,95%CI,0.61-0.90),whereas the coexistence of elevated waist-to-hip ratio and overweight did not increase the risk of cognitive impairment.Sarcopenia was associated with an elevated risk of cognitive impairment.This association was found in both overweight(OR=2.03,95%CI,1.71-2.41)and non-overweight older adults(OR=1.86,95%CI,1.58-2.20),and was significant across all polygenic risk score strata.Conclusion Increasing body mass may serve as a key protective factor against cognitive decline in older adults.Having sarcopenia and obesity is associated with an elevated risk of cognitive impairment,independent of genetic susceptibility.

Objective To explore the application value of CT fusion navigation technology in Stanford B-type aortic dissection endovas-cular isolation surgery.Methods Nineteen patients who underwent Stanford B-type aortic dissection endovascular isolation surgery were selected.Prior to surgery,all patients underwent chest and abdominal CT plain scan and enhanced scan,and three-dimensional vascular reconstruction was performed at the post-processing workstation;During the operation,a chest(region of interest)digital subtraction angiography(DS A)3D-CT scan was first performed as the intraoperative matching localization image.Then,a thin-layer(1.0 mm)CT enhanced tomographic image of the chest and abdomen was extracted from the picture archiving and communication system(PACS).At the same time,the DSA 3D-CT image and the thin-layer CT enhanced image were opened for overlapping regis-tration of bony landmarks.After registration,the three-dimensional vascular volume rendering(VR)image of the aorta from the thin-layer CT was fused with the DSA 3D-CT,and the positioning and release of the covered stent were guided by the newly fused multimodal real-time image.Results All 19 patients underwent guided surgery with precise positioning of the covered lesions and successful release of the covered stents,with a success rate of 100％ for the guided technique.The intraoperative placement time of the covered stent was(5.4±2.4)s,the exposure time was(12.8±3.2)min,the surgical duration was(53.9±25.3)min,the intraopera-tive contrast agent dosage was(125.8±25.3)mL,the X-ray fluoroscopy dose was(221.3±155.7)mGy,and the total X-ray exposure dose was(1 056.4±330.3)mGy.There were no serious complications during the operation,and all patients received 1-3 months of follow-up which found they all recovered well.Conclusion The use of CT and DSA fusion navigation technology in guiding the treat-ment of Stanford B-type aortic dissection with covered stents provides real-time three-dimensional fusion images for the operator,which can quickly and accurately locate and release the stent,and has certain clinical value.
