Microglial functions are linked to Ca²⁺ signaling, with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium stores playing a crucial role. Microglial abnormality is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but how ER Ca²⁺ receptors regulate microglial functions under physiological and AD conditions remains unclear. We found reduced ryanodine receptor 2 (Ryr2) expression in microglia from an AD mouse model. Modulation of RyR2 using S107, a RyR-Calstabin stabilizer, blunted spontaneous Ca²⁺ transients in controls and normalized Ca²⁺ transients in AD mice. S107 enhanced ATP-induced migration and phagocytosis while reducing ramification in control microglia; however, these effects were absent in AD microglia. Our findings indicate that RyR2 stabilization promotes an activation state shift in control microglia, a mechanism impaired in AD. These results highlight the role of ER Ca²⁺ receptors in both homeostatic and AD microglia, providing insights into microglial Ca²⁺ malfunctions in AD.

Objective:To analyze the effect of thoracoscopic subsegmental resection under the guidance of three dimensional(3D)computed tomography bronchography and angiography(3D-CTBA)for resection of pulmonary nodules.Methods:A total of 40 patients who underwent 3D-CTBA-guided thoracoscopic subsegmental resection in Nanjing Jiangbei Hospital of Nantong University from January 2020 to October 2021 were selected as the observation group,and other 35 patients who underwent 3D-CTBA-guided thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy were selected as the control group.The intraoperative and postoperative conditions,and the incidence of postoperative complications of the two groups were observed.Results:The differences of amount of intraoperative blood loss,average margin width,postoperative drainage,retention time of drainage tube between observation group and control group were significant(t=8.644,2.862,10.03,3.277,P<0.05),respectively.The numbers of occurring postoperative chest leakage,pulmonary infection and hemoptysis in observation group and control group were respectively"3,1,1"and"2,1,2".The incidences of complications of two groups were respectively 12.5%and 14.29%,without statistical significance between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion:3D-CTBA-guided thoracoscopic subsegmental resection can shorten the operation time,and reduce intraoperative blood loss and the injury of tracheas and blood vessels,and improve the postoperative recovery of patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of perforator flap combined with toe transplantation for repairing thumb damage with soft tissue defect of hand.Methods:The retrospective observational study method was used. From May 2014 to June 2019, 8 patients with thumb damage and soft tissue defect of hand were admitted to the 988th Hospital of Joint Logistic Support Force of PLA, including 6 males and 2 females, aged from 25 to 46 years. Among them, thumb damage in 3 cases were degree Ⅱ, 1 case was degree Ⅲ, and 4 cases were degree Ⅳ. All thumb damage were repaired with perforator flap combined with toe transplantation. The skin and soft tissue defects of hand were repaired by free anterolateral thigh perforator flap in 6 cases and free deep inferior epigastric perforator flap in 2 cases. The thumb damage of degree Ⅱ was repaired by the first toe transplantation combined with perforator flap, and thumb damage of degree Ⅲ or Ⅳ was repaired by the second toe transplantation combined with perforator flap. The survival and blood supply of reconstructed thumbs and flaps, and wound healing of donor sites were observed after surgery. All the patients were followed up for 10 to 18 months, the appearance of the reconstructed thumbs, sensory recovery, and foot walking function were observed. At the final follow-up, the functional reconstruction of the thumb was evaluated.Results:All the blood supply and survival of the reconstructed thumbs and flaps were good, and all the wounds of donor sites healed well. During the follow-up, the appearances of the reconstructed thumb and flap were good, the sensation of pain and touch of the finger pulp recovered well, and no significant impact on foot walking function was observed. At the final follow-up, the function of reconstructed thumb was evaluated as excellent in 4 cases, good in 3 cases, and fair in 1 case.Conclusions:The repair method of perforator flap combined with toe transplantation technique can complete the targeted repair of thumb damage with skin and soft tissue defect of hand in one stage, minimizing the foot donor site injury and shortening the course of disease and early rehabilitation, which is one of the ideal methods for the treatment of complex thumb damage.

Malunion is one of common complications after distal radius fractures.It is indicated that malunion plays an important role in fracture recovery in many studies.This article sums up the research data,from aspects of both biomechanical analysis and follows-up of clinical cases,of domestic and foreign scholars in recent years,and reviews the influences of malunion on wrist joint functional outcome.
