OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the biomechanical characteristics of Schatzker type Ⅱ tibial plateau fracture fixed by different bone grafting methods and internal fixations.
METHODS:
Twenty-four embalmed specimens of adult knee joint were selected to make Schatzker type Ⅱ tibial plateau fracture models, which were randomly divided into 8 groups (groups A1-D1 and groups A2-D2, n=3). After all the fracture models were restored, non-structural iliac crest bone grafts were implanted in group A1-D1, and structural iliac crest bone grafts in groups A2-D2. Following bone grafting, group A was fixed with a lateral golf locking plate, group B was fixed with lateral golf locking plate combined compression bolt, group C was fixed with lateral tibial "L"-shaped locking plate, and group D was fixed with lateral tibial "L"-shaped locking plate combined compression bolt. Compression and cyclic loading tests were performed on a biomechanical testing machine. A distal femur specimen or a 4-cm-diameter homemade bone cement ball were used as a pressure application mould for each group of models. The specimens were loaded with local compression at a rate of 10 N/s and the mechanical loads were recorded when the vertical displacement of the split bone block reached 2 mm. Then, compressive and cyclic loading tests were conducted on the fixed models of each group. The specimens were compression loaded to 100, 400, 700, and 1 000 N at a speed of 10 N/s to record the vertical displacement of the split bone block. The specimens were also subjected to cyclic loading at 5 Hz and 10 N/s within the ranges 100-300, 100-500, 100-700, and 100-1 000 N to record the vertical displacement of the split bone block at the end of the entire cyclic loading test. The specimens were subjected to cyclic loading tests and the vertical displacement of the split bone block was recorded at the end of the test.
RESULTS:
When the vertical displacement of the collapsed bone block reached 2 mm, the mechanical load of groups A2-D2 was significantly greater than that of groups A1-D1 ( P<0.05). The mechanical load of groups B and D was significantly greater than that of group A under the two bone grafting methods ( P<0.05); the local mechanical load of group D was significantly greater than that of groups B and C under the structural iliac crest bone grafts ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference ( P>0.05) in the vertical displacement of the split bone blocks between the two bone graft methods when the compressive load was 100, 400, 700 N and the cyclic load was 100-300, 100-500, 100-700 N in groups A-D. However, the vertical displacement of bone block in groups A1-D1 was significantly greater than that in groups A2-D2 ( P<0.05) when the compressive loading was 1 000 N and the cyclic load was 100-1 000 N. The vertical displacement of bone block in group B was significantly smaller than that in group A, and that in group D was significantly smaller than that in group C under the same way of bone graft ( P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
Compared with non-structural iliac crest bone grafts implantation, structural iliac crest bone grafts is more effective in preventing secondary collapse of Schatzker type Ⅱ tibial plateau fracture, and locking plate combined with compression bolt fixation can provide better articular surface support and resistance to axial compression, and the lateral tibial "L"-shaped locking plate can better highlight its advantages of "raft" fixation and show better mechanical stability.

Vaccination is a crucial strategy for the prevention and control of infectious diseases. Virus-like particles (VLPs), composed of structural proteins, have garnered significant attention as a novel type of vaccine due to their excellent safety and immunogenicity. However, similar to most vaccine antigens, VLPs exhibit insufficient thermal stability, which not only restricts the widespread application of vaccines but also increases the risk of vaccine inactivation. This study aims to enhance the stability and shelf life of VLPs derived from type A foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) by employing vacuum freeze-drying technology. The optimal lyoprotectant formulation was determined through single-factor and combinatorial screening. Subsequently, the correlation between the immunogenicity of the freeze-dried vaccine and the content of FMDV VLPs was evaluated via a mouse model. The stability of FMDV VLPs before and after freeze-drying was further assessed by storing them at 4, 25, and 37 ℃ for varying time periods. Results indicated that the lyoprotectant formulation No.1, composed of 7.5% trehalose, 0.1% Tween 80, 50 mmol/L glycine, 1% sodium glutamate, and 3% polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), effectively preserved the content of FMDV VLPs during the vacuum freeze-drying process. The immunization trial in mice revealed that the levels of specific antibodies, immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1), interleukin-4 (IL-4), and neutralizing antibodies induced by freeze-dried FMDV VLPs were comparable to those induced by non-freeze-dried FMDV VLPs. The heat treatment results showed that the storage periods of freeze-dried FMDV VLPs at 4, 25, and 37 ℃ were significantly longer than those of non-freeze-dried FMDV VLPs. In conclusion, the selected lyoprotectant formulation effectively improved the stability of FMDV VLPs vaccines. This study provides valuable insights for enhancing the stability of novel subunit vaccines.

Objective To investigate the role of sphingosine kinase-1(SPHK1)in regulating migration and invasion of gastric cancer(GC)cells.Methods TIMER2.0,GEPIA and HPA databases were used to investigate SPHK1 expression in GC,and its association with prognosis of the patients was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier Plotter database.In 40 clinical GC and adjacent tissue samples,SPHK1 and MKI67 expressions were detected with immunohistochemistry,Western blotting,and RT-qPCR.Gene enrichment pathway analysis was conducted to explore the biological functions of SPHK1.In HGC-27 and MGC-803 cells,the effects of lentivirus-mediated SPHK1 knockdown or overexpression on cell migration and invasion and expressions of key proteins in the nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)signaling were evaluated using cell scratch test,Transwell assays and Western blotting.The changes in tumorigenic capacity of the transfected GC cells were evaluated in nude mice.Results SPHK1 was highly expressed in GC tissues in negative correlation with overall survival,overall survival after progression,and relapse-free survival of the patients(all P<0.001).In clinical GC samples,SPHK1 and MKI67 expressions showed a positive correlation(P=0.00049)and were both significantly up-regulated(P<0.001).Gene enrichment pathway analysis suggested the involvement of SPHK1 in cell adhesion,migration,angiogenesis and the NF-κB pathway(P<0.05).In the cell experiment,SPHK1 knockdown significantly decreased while SPHK1 overexpression enhanced migration and invasion abilities of the GC cells.SPHK1 positively regulated the expressions of phosphorylated P65(P-P65),VEGFA and IL-17,and blocking the NF-κB pathway by PDTC significantly lowered migration and invasion ability of the cells.In nude mice,the GC cells with SPHK1 knockdown resulted in significantly reduced tumor size and mass,while the SPHK1-overexpressing cells showed enhanced tumorigenicity.Conclusion SPHK1 regulates migration and invasion of GC cells via the NF-κB signaling pathway and may serve as a potential diagnostic marker for GC progression.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of hospitalized patients diagnosed with sepsis in a large class Ⅲ general hospital in Southwest China in a period of 2 years, and to explore the risk factors related to death in patients with sepsis.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to select patients with sepsis admitted to Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from September 1, 2021 to August 31, 2023, and general characteristics such as gender, age, discharge diagnosis, discharge department, hospitalization cost, length of stay, and prognosis during hospitalization were collected. The baseline of two groups of patients were compared, and the risk factors of in-hospital cause of death in patients with sepsis were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression.Results:A total of 3 568 patients with sepsis were included with median age of 58 (35, 74) years old. Of all patients, there were 2 147 males (60.17%). The median length of hospitalization was 13 (8, 24) days, and the median hospitalization cost was 3.98 (1.87, 8.83) ten thousand yuan. The departments with more than 100 cases of sepsis in 2 years were central intensive care unit (ICU), pediatrics department, nephrology department, emergency medicine department, emergency intensive care unit (EICU), infectious department, respiratory medicine department, hematology department, neonatal care unit and emergency surgical department. A total of 1 210 patients (33.91%) admitted to ICU (including central ICU and EICU). The hospitalization cost of ICU patients were higher [6.7 (3.1, 15.5) ten thousand yuan], the hospitalization duration was longer [9 (3, 17) days], and the mortality was higher [35.29% (427/1 210)]. Among 3 568 patients with sepsis, 448 died and 3 120 survived during hospitalization. The age, male proportion and hospitalization cost of patients with sepsis in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group [age (years old): 75 (60, 86) vs. 57 (30, 71), male proportion: 67.86% (304/448) vs. 59.07% (1 843/3 120), hospitalization cost (ten thousand yuan): 6.7 (3.0, 16.9) vs. 3.7 (1.8, 8.1)], the ratio of diabetes mellitus was significantly lower than that of survival group [4.91% (22/448) vs. 10.45% (326/3 120)], the length of hospitalization was shorter than that of survival group [days: 10.0 (3.0, 19.0) vs. 13.0 (8.0, 24.0)], the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that male [odds ratio ( OR) = 0.75, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.59-0.96], elder ( OR = 1.04, 95% CI was 1.03-1.05) and diabetes ( OR = 0.32, 95% CI was 0.19-0.54) were independent risk factors for in-hospital death in patients with sepsis (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:Sepsis is a heavy burden in Southwest China, especially for ICU, with high mortality, high hospitalization costs, and heavy economic burden on patients and society. Male, elder and diabetes were independent risk factors for in-hospital death of sepsis patients.

Objective To comprehensively review the clinical research on the treatment of hyperlipidemia with traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)through the evidence mapping,and to understand the distribution of evidence in this field. Methods Databases including CNKI,Wangfang,VIP,SinoMed,PubMed,Cochrane Library,and Embase were searched from January 2004 to December 2023 to collect clinical studies,systematic reviews/meta-analyses,guidelines and clinical pathways related to the treatment of hyperlipidemia with TCM. The results were analyzed and displayed in charts and graphs according to the screening criteria,and the Assessment of Multiple Systematic Reviews 2 (AMSTAR 2) tool and the Preferred Reporting Item for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Chinese herbal medicine (PRISMA-CHM) were used to evaluate the quality of the systematic review/meta-analysis. Results A total of 1223 studies were included in the analysis according to Population,Intervention,Comparison,Outcome and Study design(PICOS) principles,involving 920 RCTs,249 non-RCTs,49 systematic reviews/meta-analyses,and 5 guidelines/expert consensus. In recent years,the overall number of clinical research publications has shown a downward trend. Hyperlipidemia frequently occurs in middle-aged and elderly people,and age of onset tends to be younger. The sample size of randomized controlled studies is mostly concentrated in 60-300 cases. There are many types of clinical treatment regimens for the treatment of hyperlipidemia with TCM,among which TCM decoction (50.13%) and Chinese patent medicine (38.41%) account for a relatively high proportion,and TCM exercise therapy (0.51%) is the lowest treatment. Jiangzhi Decoction has attracted more attention in trial group of TCM decoction,while Xuezhikang Capsule has attracted more attention in trial group of Chinese patent medicine. In terms of methodological design,199 papers(21.63%) explicitly mentioned the method of generating random sequence,17 papers(1.85%) mentioned allocation concealment,37 papers (4.02%) mentioned blinding. The control group was dominated by the statins,including simvastatin and atorvastatin. The outcome indicators mainly include the total effective rate,TCM syndrome score,blood lipid level,coagulation index,and adverse reactions,while the attention of TCM characteristic efficacy,inflammation,oxidative stress,and vascular endothelial index were low. The methodological and reporting quality of the systematic review/Meta-analysis were generally not high. AMSTAR-2 evaluation was extremely low,and the average PRISMA-CHM score was 15. Conclusion TCM has certain advantages in the treatment of hyperlipidemia,but there is a lack of high-quality evidence-based proof,and more high-quality clinical studies are still needed to further provide evidence supports in the future. It has been suggested that more large-sample and multi-center clinical studies should be carried out in the future. We should formulate systematic reviews/Meta analysis and guidelines/expert consensus according to the guidelines of clinical practice issues,also consult international standards and regulations,enhance normativity and reliability to improve the quality of their evidence.

Objective:To investigate the application value of donor liver autologous portal venous blood rinse in orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 35 pairs of donors and recipients who underwent OLT in the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China from May 2018 to June 2019 were collected. Of the 35 donors, there were 31 males and 4 females, aged (48±9)years. Of the 35 recipients, there were 25 males and 10 females, aged (47±9)years. Of the 35 recipients, 16 recipients undergoing donor liver autologous portal venous blood rinse were allocated into the portal vein group, and 19 recipients undergoing donor liver albumin water rinse were allocated into the albumin group. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations; (3) follow-up. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and compari-son between groups was analyzed using the t test. Measurement data of skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were descried as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the Fisher exact probability. Results:(1) Surgical situations. The anhepatic phase time and arterial blood Ca 2+ concentration within 5 minutes after reperfusion of the recipients were (52±12)minutes and (0.99±0.10)mmol/L in the portal vein group, versus (64±12)minutes and (1.05±0.07)mmol/L in the albumin group, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=2.94, 2.22, P<0.05). The mean arterial pressure, arterial blood K +concentration and arterial blood pH within 5 minutes after reperfusion of the recipients were (70±24)mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), (4.7±1.3)mmol/L and 7.27±0.06 in the portal vein group, versus (71±28)mmHg, (4.6±1.1)mmol/L and 7.30±0.07 in the albumin group, showing no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=0.14, 0.30, 1.22, P>0.05). (2) Post-operative situations. Cases with post-reperfusion syndrome (PRS), cases with severe PRS of cardiac arrest, cases with primary graft nonfunction of the recipients were 6, 0, 2 in the portal vein group, versus 8, 1, 1 in the albumin group, showing no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( P>0.05). Total bilirubin on postoperative day 7 of the recipients was (90±52)μmol/L in the portal vein group, versus (166±112)μmol/L in the albumin group, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( t=2.66, P<0.05). International normalized ratio on postoperative day 7, the highest alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase within 7 days after operation of the recipients were 2.1±2.0, (1 952±2 813)IU/L and (3 944±6 673)IU/L in the portal vein group, versus 1.8±0.6, (1 023±1 014) IU/L and (2 005±2 910)IU/L in the albumin group, showing no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=0.66, 1.23, 1.08, P>0.05). Recipients with hepatic artery complication and biliary complication were 1 and 2 in the portal vein group, versus 0 and 4 in the albumin group, showing no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( P>0.05). There were 3 cases and 2 cases died during the perioperative period in the portal vein group and the albumin group, respectively. (3) Follow-up. Of the 35 recipients, 30 recipients were followed up for 534(range, 28?776)days after operation. During the follow-up, there were 3 patients with postoperative complications in the portal vein group including 2 cases died and 1 case recovered after sympto-matic treatment. There were 5 patients with postoperative complications in the albumin group including 1 case died and 4 cases recovered after symptomatic treatment. Up to the follow-up date, 11 patients in the portal vein group and 16 patients in the albumin group were in good condition. Conclusion:Rinse of the donor liver with autologous portal venous blood during liver transplantation can shorten the time of anhepatic phase, without increasing the occurrence of post-reperfusion syndrome, ischemia re-perfusion injury and biliary tract complications.
