Objective:To investigate the risk factors for recurrence after modified Chevron osteotomy for hallux valgus.Methods:A total of 86 patients (102 feet) with hallux valgus who underwent modified Chevron operation in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from December 2018 to February 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 12 males (14 feet) and 74 females (88 feet), aged 50±15 years (range, 18-74 years). There were 36 cases on the right side, 34 on the left side, and 16 on the bilateral side. 4 feet were treated with Chevron osteotomy, 74 feet with modified McBride's osteotomy, 61 feet with Weil osteotomy, 24 feet with Akin osteotomy, and 23 feet with gastrocnemius aponeurotic release. At the last follow-up, hallux valgus angle (HVA) ≤15° was defined as the non-recurrence group after hallux valgus operation, and HVA>15° was defined as the recurrence group after hallux valgus operation. Compare the age, gender, preoperative HVA, the first and second intermetatarsal angles (IMA) before and after operation, the metatarsus adductus angles (MAA) before and after operation, the Meary angles before and after operation, the distal metatarsal articular angles (DMAA) before and after operation, the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) forefoot scores before and after operation, and the rotation of the first metatarsal head between the two groups of patients. Include the indicators with statistically significant differences in the binary variable logistic regression analysis to screen for the risk factors of recurrence after modified Chevron operation for hallux valgus.Results:All patients successfully completed the operation and were followed up for 30.3±16.4 months (range, 12-52 months). Postoperative recurrence occurred in 21 feet, and the recurrence rate was 20.6% (21/102). The HVA at the last follow-up was 8.48°±4.52° in the non-recurrence group and 20.68°±3.61° in the recurrence group. In the non-recurrence group, the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score increased from 60.31±16.62 points preoperatively to 86.89±12.79 points postoperatively ( t=-13.644, P<0.001). In the recurrent group, the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score increased from 61.71±15.68 points preoperatively to 84.33±18.84 points postoperatively ( t=-6.082, P<0.001). The proportion of patients with preoperative Meary angle> 4° in the non-recurrence group was 52% (10/21), which was lower than 79% (64/81) in the recurrence group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=6.077, P=0.014). The proportion of patients with square type of metatarsal rotation (type A) in the recurrence group was 58%(47/81), which was higher than 33%(7/21) in the non-recurrence group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=4.081, P=0.043). There was no significant difference in gender, age, preoperative HVA, pre- and post-operative IMA, pre- and post-operative DMAA, pre- and post-operative MAA, or preoperative metatarsal rotation type between the two groups ( P>0.05). The results of the logistic regression analysis showed that a preoperative Meary angle ≤ 4° ( OR=3.299, P=0.024) and a non-type A metatarsal rotation pattern after operation ( OR=4.183, P=0.041) were independent risk factors for recurrence after modified Chevron operation for hallux valgus. Conclusion:Hallux valgus patients with a preoperative Meary angle ≤4° and non-type A metatarsal rotation after operation have an increased risk of recurrence following modified Chevron operation.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of Wuhua herbal tea on chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS)-induced depression and explore its mechanism of action in combating depression.MethodsWe tested the antidepressant effects of Wuhua herbal tea in a rat model of CUMS-induced depression using fluoxetine as a positive control. The rats were divided into four groups: control group, model group, fluoxetine group, and Wuhua herbal tea group. The rats underwent body weight measurements, sucrose preference test, and open-field test. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits were used to detect the serum levels of serotonin, dopamine, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), corticosterone, norepinephrine, and interleukin-6. Intergroup comparisons and detection of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB), Janus kinase 2 (JAK2), and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) mRNA expression in the hippocampus were performed using RT-PCR. Immunohistochemistry was used to identify the expression of phosphorylated JAK2 (p-JAK2) and phosphorylated STAT3 (p-STAT3) proteins in hippocampal paraffin sections of CUMS rats.ResultsCompared with the control group, the model group rats had depressive tendencies, exhibiting low vitality and interest in various behavioral indicators which were signs of despair. The Wuhua herbal tea group statistically increased the levels of serotonin and dopamine in the serum of CUMS rats to varying degrees (P = .015 and P = .002); reduced serum levels of ACTH, corticosterone, norepinephrine, and interleukin-6 (all P .05); and decreased mRNA expression of BDNF, CREB, JAK2, and STAT3 in the hippocampus (all P .05); and decreased p-STAT3 protein levels (P = .006).ConclusionWuhua herbal tea shows antidepressant potential in CUMS rats by modulating the HPA axis and inhibiting JAK2-STAT3 overactivation, alleviating neuroinflammation. It also restores BDNF-CREB pathway function, reducing depressive symptoms.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) represent a promising class of targeted cancer therapeutics that combine the specificity of monoclonal antibodies with the potency of cytotoxic payloads. Despite their therapeutic potential, the use of ADCs faces significant challenges, including off/on-target toxicity and resistance development. This review examines the current landscape of ADC development, focusing on the critical aspects of target selection and antibody engineering. We discuss strategies to increase ADC efficacy and safety, including multitarget approaches, pH-dependent antibodies, and masked peptide technologies. The importance of comprehensive antigen expression profiling in both tumor and normal tissues is emphasized, highlighting the role of advanced technologies, such as single-cell sequencing and artificial intelligence, in optimizing target selection. Furthermore, we explore combination therapies and innovations in linker‒payload chemistry, which may provide approaches for expanding the therapeutic window of ADCs. These advances pave the way for the development of more precise and effective cancer treatments, potentially extending ADC applications beyond oncology.

OBJECTIVE To explore the improvement effect and mechanism of petroleum ether extract of Saposhnikovia divaricata on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) rats by regulating neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). METHODS Establishment of rat RA model using bovine type Ⅱ collagen and Freund’s complete adjuvant. The model rats were randomly divided into model group and low-dose, middle-dose and high-dose groups (55, 110, 220 mg/kg) of petroleum ether extract of S. divaricata; the normal group without modeling was also established, with 10 rats in each group. Each group was given corresponding drugs or constant volume of 2% Tween-80 solution intragastrically, once a day, for consecutive 28 days. The toe swelling degree in rats was observed, and the arthritis index (AI) was scored. The serum levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-10, IL-17, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3], myeloperoxidase (MPO), neutrophil elastase (NE) and NETs in rats were detected. The histopathological changes in ankle joint were observed. The expression of citrullinated histone H3 (CitH3) in ankle joint as well as the expressions of cytochrome P450 24A1 (CYP24A1), cytochrome P450 27B1 (CYP27B1),vitamin D receptor (VDR) and peptidyl arginine deiminase 4 疾病。E-mail:zhongyao626@126.com (PAD4) in synovium were all determined. RESULTS Compared with the model group, the toe swelling degree and AI score in the middle-dose and high-dose groups of petroleum ether extract of S. divaricata decreased significantly from day 14 to day 28 after administration (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The serum levels of IL-1β, IL-17, TNF-α, MPO, NE and NETs decreased significantly, while the levels of IL-10 and 25(OH)D3 increased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The widened ankle joint space and the improved structure were found; the expression of CitH3 in ankle joint, and the expressions of CYP24A1 and PAD4 in synovium were down-regulated significantly, while the expressions of CYP27B1 and VDR were up-regulated significantly in synovium (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS The petroleum ether extract of S. divaricata may inhibit the production of NETs and improve the symptoms of RA by regulating the vitamin D system.
