OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the risk factors associated with the development of knee osteoarthritis (OA) following arthroscopic surgery for degenerative lesions of the posterior horn of the medial meniscus.
METHODS:
Between January 2012 and January 2014, a retrospective analysis was conducted on 506 patients who underwent arthroscopic surgery for degenerative disease of the posterior horn of the medial meniscus. The cohort included 230 males and 276 females, aged from 32 to 58 years old with an average of (46.77±9.02) years old. According to the results of postoperative follow-up, patients were categorized into a knee osteoarthritis(OA) group and a non-OA group. The following parameters were recorded for each subject:gender, medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA), presence of bone edema on MRI, physical characteristics (including McMurray test results, locking symptoms, and medial knee tenderness points), meniscus protrusion, type of meniscus injury, and free body condition as observed via arthroscopy. Multivariate unconditional Logistic regression analysis was employed to investigate the associated factors influencing the 10-year postoperative incidence of knee osteoarthritis following surgery for degenerative injury of the posterior horn of the medial meniscus. Independent risk factors potentially influencing the development of postoperative OA were identified, and a nomogram-based predictive model for postoperative OA was established. The discriminatory ability and calibration accuracy of the model were assessed using the C-index and Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test, respectively. Furthermore, internal validation was performed using the bootstrap resampling method.
RESULTS:
Within a 10-year period following arthroscopic surgery, there were 123 patients in the OA group and 383 patients in the non-OA group. Significant differences were observed between two groups with respect to gender (χ2=5.156, P=0.023), MPTA<86.6° (χ2=21.671, P<0.001), varus lower limb alignment( χ2= 80.086, P<0.001). Additionally, meniscus extrusion (χ2=6.371, P=0.012), meniscus transverse tear (χ2=14.573, P<0.001), and bone edema detected on MRI(χ2=9.881, P=0.002) were identified as factors associated with the development of postoperative knee OA. The multifactorial Logistic regression analysis revealed that the lower limb line of force inversion OR=4.324, 95%CI (1.391, 13.443), P=0.011;MPTA <86.6°, OR=2.519, 95%CI (1.150, 5.519), P=0.021;transverse meniscus tear, OR=4.546, 95%CI (1.827, 11.310), P=0.001;meniscus ectropion, OR=5.401, 95%CI (1.992, 14.646), P=0.001;and bone edema manifestation on MRI OR=2.692, 95%CI (1.169, 6.200), P=0.020. They were independent risk factors associated with the development of postoperative OA. The area under the ROC curve predicted by the model was 0.927, 95%CI (0.903, 0.950). The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test, used to evaluate the accuracy of the model, yielded P=0.689. Additionally, the internally sampled calibration curve demonstrated good consistency with the actual postoperative OA outcomes.
CONCLUSION
Varus alignment of the lower extremity, MPTA <86.6°, transverse meniscus tear, lateral meniscus injury, and bone marrow edema observed on MRI were independent risk factors for the development of knee osteoarthritis following arthroscopic surgery. Additionally, the prognostic model demonstrated excellent predictive performance.

OBJECTIVE:
This study investigates the efficacy and mechanisms of Qingjie Fuzheng Granules (QFG) in inhibiting colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CAC) development via RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) correlation analysis.
METHODS:
CAC was induced in BALB/c mice using azoxymethane (AOM) and dextran sulfate sodium (DSS), and QFG was administered orally to the treatment group. The effects of QFG on CAC were evaluated using disease index, histology, and serum T-cell ratios. RNA-seq and 16S rRNA analysis assessed the transcriptome and microbiome change. Key pharmacodynamic pathways were identified by integrating these data and confirmed via Western blotting and immunofluorescence. The link between microbiota and CAC-related markers was explored using linear discriminant analysis effect size and Spearman correlation analysis.
RESULTS:
Long-term treatment with QFG prevented AOM/DSS-induced CAC formation, reduced levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), IL-6, and interferon γ (IFN-γ), and increased CD3+ and CD4+/CD8+ T cells ratio, without causing hepatic or renal toxicity. A 16S rRNA analysis revealed that QFG rebalanced the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio and mitigated AOM/DSS-induced microbiota disturbances. Transcriptomics and Western blotting analysis identified the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 2 (NOD2)/nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) pathway as key for QFG's treatment against CAC. Furthermore, QFG decreased the abundance of Bacilli, Bacillales, Staphylococcaceae, Staphylococcus, Lactobacillales, Aerococcus, Alloprevotella, and Akkermansia, while increasing Clostridiales, Lachnospiraceae, Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group, Ruminococcaceae, and Muribaculaceae, which were highly correlated with CAC-related markers or NOD2/NF-κB pathway.
CONCLUSION
By mapping the relationships between CAC, immune responses, microbiota, and key pathways, this study clarifies the mechanism of QFG in inhibiting CAC, highlighting its potential for clinical use as preventive therapy.

Conventional chemotherapy based on cytotoxic drugs is facing tough challenges recently following the advances of monoclonal antibodies and molecularly targeted drugs. It is critical to inspire new potential to remodel the value of this classical therapeutic strategy. Here, we fabricate bisphosphonate coordination lipid nanogranules (BC-LNPs) and load paclitaxel (PTX) to boost the chemo- and immuno-therapeutic synergism of cytotoxic drugs. Alendronate in BC-LNPs@PTX, a bisphosphonate to block mevalonate metabolism, works as both the structure and drug constituent in nanogranules, where alendronate coordinated with calcium ions to form the particle core. The synergy of alendronate enhances the efficacy of paclitaxel, suppresses tumor metastasis, and alters the cytotoxic mechanism. Differing from the paclitaxel-induced apoptosis, the involvement of alendronate inhibits the mevalonate metabolism, changes the mitochondrial morphology, disturbs the redox homeostasis, and causes the accumulation of mitochondrial ROS and lethal lipid peroxides (LPO). These factors finally trigger the ferroptosis of tumor cells, an immunogenic cell death mode, which remodels the suppressive tumor immune microenvironment and synergizes with immunotherapy. Therefore, by switching paclitaxel-induced apoptosis to mevalonate metabolism-triggered ferroptosis, BC-LNPs@PTX provides new insight into the development of cytotoxic drugs and highlights the potential of metabolism regulation in cancer therapy.
