Objective To discuss the short-term efficacy and safety of primary percutaneous reduction combined with robotic-assisted screw placement for the treatment of Sanders type Ⅲ and Ⅳ calcaneal frac-tures.Methods A total of 52 patients(52 feet)with Sanders type Ⅲ and Ⅳ calcaneal fractures admitted to this hospital from August 2022 to October 2024 were selected as the study subjects.33 patients were treated with robot assisted screw placement(the observation group),including 23 cases of Sanders type Ⅲ patients(4 cases of AC type,16 cases of AB type,3 cases of BC type)and 10 cases of Sanders type Ⅳ patients;19 patients underwent manual screw placement under C-arm X-ray fluoroscopy(the control group),including 14 cases of Sanders type Ⅲ(5 cases of AC type,9 cases of AB type)and 5 cases of Sanders Ⅳ type.The B?hler angle,Gissane angle,calcaneal height,calcaneal width,and calcaneal length were compared between the two groups at 3 and 12 months after surgery.The differences in the time from injury to surgery,intraoperative blood loss,number of intraoperative fluoroscopies,total incision length,operation time,number of screws inserted,num-ber of punctures,hospital stay,fracture healing time,and proportion of tarsal sinus incision-assisted reduction between the two groups were evaluated and compared.The American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society(AOFAS)ankle and hindfoot function score,excellent rate of function and visual analog scale(VAS)pain score after surgery were also compared,and the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups were compared to evaluate safety.Results Both groups of patients were followed up for more than 12 months after surgery.At 3 and 12 months postoperatively,B?hler's angle,Gissane's angle,calcaneal length,calcaneal height,and calcaneal width in both groups showed significant improvements compared to preopera-tive measurements,but there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).The intraoperative blooding loss,number of intraoperative fluoroscopies,operation time,and number of punc-tures in the observation group were all lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statisti-cally significant(P＜0.05);There was no statistically significant difference in the time from injury to surger-y,total incision length,number of screws inserted,hospital stay,fracture healing time,proportion of tarsal si-nus incision-assisted reduction,and excellent rate of function between the two groups of patients(P＞0.05).The AOFAS ankle and hindfoot function score of the observation group was higher than that of the control group at 3 months after surgery,and the VAS pain scores in the early postoperative period was lower than that of the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The incidence of complications such as lower ankle pain,traumatic arthritis,and plantar pain in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Com-pared with manual screw placement,primary percutaneous reduction combined with robotic-assisted screw placement for the treatment of Sanders type Ⅲ and Ⅳ calcaneal fractures is more effective,safe,precise,mini-mally invasive and efficient,with less intraoperative bleeding and lower incidence of complications.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of linaclotide and procalcitide in the treatment of adult constipation IBS-C.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 80 IBS-C patients admitted from May 2021 to May 2024.All patients were treated with novel secretagogues,and were divided into four groups according to the different treatment methods:linarotinib group and Pucanapide group,with 40 patients in each group.The clinical efficacy of oral administration of 290 μg of Nallotide capsules and 3 mg of Pucanapeptide in the Linalotide group and Pucanapeptide group was compared after one month of continuous treatment.The scores of IBS-C symptoms related to stool frequency,stool characteristics,upper abdominal pain,early satiety,and bloating were evaluated before and Post-treatment.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect the levels of vasoactive intestinal peptide(VIP),substance P(SP),5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT),motilin,and gastrin IBS-C related serum markers in feces.The 16s rDNA fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction method was used to detect Escherichia coli and lactate in feces.Compare the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups based on the levels of Bacillus and Bifidobacterium.Results:There was no difference in the total effective rate between linagliptin group and Pucanotide group(P＞0.05);Post-treatment,the fecal frequency scores of the linaclotide group and the procalcitonin group were higher than pretherapy,while the fecal characteristics,upper abdominal pain,early satiety,and fullness scores were lower than pretherapy(P＜0.05).There was no difference in the fecal frequency,fecal characteristics,early satiety,and fullness scores between the linaclotide group and the procalcitonin group(P＞0.05),and the upper abdominal pain score of the linaclotide group was lower than that of the procalcitonin group(P＜0.05);Post-treatment,VIP,SP,5-HT,motilin and gastrin levels in linagliptin group and Pucanotide group were all lower than that pretherapy(P＜0.05),and there was no significant difference between linagliptin group and Pucanotide group(P＞0.05);Post-treatment,the levels of Escherichia coli in the linaclotide group and the procaine group were lower than pretherapy,while the numbers of Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria were higher than pretherapy(P＜0.05).There was no difference between the linaclotide group and the procaine group(P＞0.05);There was no difference in the incidence of headache,bloating/abdominal pain between the linaclotide group and the procaine group(P＞0.05),and the incidence of diarrhea in the procaine group was lower than that in the linaclotide group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Linalotide and Pucanatide have similar therapeutic effects in treating adult IBS-C,both of which can improve patients' clinical symptoms,serum biomarker levels,and intestinal microbiota structure.However,Linalotide has a better effect on improving abdominal pain,while Pucanatide can reduce the risk of diarrhea.Therefore,the clinical application of different new secretagogue drugs can be determined based on individualized symptoms and diarrhea risk of patients.

Aberrant expression of Colgalt1 is closely associated with tumorigenesis and tumor progres-sion;however,the mechanism by which it regulates macrophages to influence tumor development remains poorly understood.This study aimed to establish a macrophage-specific Colgalt1 gene knockout mouse model to delve into the mechanisms through which Colgalt1 modulates macrophage function and subse-quently affects the occurrence and progression of tumor-related diseases.Initially,Colgalt1flox+mice were generated using gene editing techniques,followed by crossing with Lyz2-Cre+mice,which exhibit tissue-specific expression in the myeloid lineage(including monocytes and mature macrophages).Through this strategy,mice with the genotype Colgalt1-/-Lyz2-Cre+were successfully obtained,achieving conditional knockout of the Colgalt1 gene in macrophages.Colgalt1flox/flox Lyz2-Cre-mice were used as control.PCR and agarose gel electrophoresis were employed to identify the Flox and Cre genotypes of the knockout mice.RT-qPCR and Western Blot techniques were utilized to detect the expression levels of Colgalt1 in BMDMs from knockout mice at both the mRNA and protein levels,respectively.Western Blot results re-vealed a significant downregulation of Colgaltl expression in BMDMs from knockout mice compared to controls(P＜0.01).RT-qPCR results demonstrated a significant reduction in Colgalt1 mRNA levels in BMDMs from knockout mice compared to contro1s(P＜0.001),while no significant differences in Col-galt1 mRNA expression were observed in liver,lung,or spleen tissues between the two groups.Addition-ally,immunohistochemistry was employed to detect Colgalt1 expression in liver-specific macrophages,re-vealing an absence of Colgalt l-positive staining in liver macrophages from knockout mice.HE staining was used to observe cellular morphology in liver tissues from both groups of mice,showing no significant differences in cellular morphology or obvious pathological changes in tissues and organs.Moreover,the o-verall survival of the mice was not affected.Finally,RT-qPCR was used to assess the expression of mac-rophage-related inflammatory factors in BMDMs from both groups of mice.The results indicated that com-pared to controls,knockout mice exhibited downregulated expression of TNF-α(P＜0.05)and signifi-cantly upregulated expression of IL-10(P＜0.01),Arginase1(P＜0.001),and CD206(P＜0.001)in BMDMs,suggesting an anti-inflammatory trend and M2 polarization of macrophages following Colgalt 1 knockout.In summary,this study successfully established a macrophage-specific Colgalt1 gene knockout mouse model,providing a more reliable experimental animal model for in-depth exploration of the specific roles of Colgalt1 in macrophage functional regulation and the pathogenesis of tumor-related diseases.This model holds promise for identifying novel therapeutic targets and strategies for tumors and other diseases.

Objective:To summarize the clinical features, laboratory findings, treatment and prognosis of children confirmed as Mycoplasma pneumoniae-induced rash and mucositis (MIRM) in children. Methods:This retrospective study concluded 6 children diagnosed as MIRM in Department of Gastroenterology and Infectious Diseases, Shanghai Children′s Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University from August 2023 to April 2024. This paper described the characteristics of MIRM and analyzed the therapeutic strategy and prognosis.Results:A total of 6 children were diagnosed as MIRM including 2 boys and 4 girls with an age of onset was 6.4 (3.1, 7.5) years. Among the 6 patients, 4 patients had oral mucosal involvement among whom 2 showed crusting of the lips. Four patients had ocular involvement manifesting as conjunctival congestion and increased secretion. All patients presented with skin lesions, manifesting as target-shaped damage in 4 cases, herpes herpetiformis in 1 case and purpura-like rash in 1 case. Serological tests for Mycoplasma pneumoniae IgM and Mycoplasma pneumoniae nucleic acid test were positive in all 6 cases. Two cases received intravenous immunogloblin infusion combined with methylprednisolone, monotherapy of methylprednisolone in 4 cases. The course of glucocorticoids was 1-7 weeks, and the initial dose was 2-4 mg/(kg·d), which was gradually reduced according to the rash. The children were followed up for 3 to 9 months, no case suffered from long term ocular or cutaneous complications or recurrence of rash. All cases had good prognosis. Conclusions:Children diagnosed as MIRM present with mild symptoms and usually have good prognosis with early identification and appropriate intervention. Individualized therapy should be applied based on the severity of skin involvement.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of an intelligent handheld ultrasound (US) device for assisting non-expert general practitioners (GPs) in detecting carotid plaques (CPs) in community populations. Methods: This prospective parallel controlled trial recruited 111 consecutive community residents. All of them underwent examinations by non-expert GPs and specialist doctors using handheld US devices (setting A, setting B, and setting C). The results of setting C with specialist doctors were considered the gold standard. Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and the features of CPs were measured and recorded. The diagnostic performance of GPs in distinguishing CPs was evaluated using a receiver operating characteristic curve. Inter-observer agreement was compared using the intragroup correlation coefficient (ICC). Questionnaires were completed to evaluate clinical benefits. Results: Among the 111 community residents, 80, 96, and 112 CPs were detected in settings A, B, and C, respectively. Setting B exhibited better diagnostic performance than setting A for detecting CPs (area under the curve, 0.856 vs. 0.749; P<0.01). Setting B had better consistency with setting C than setting A in CIMT measurement and the assessment of CPs (ICC, 0.731 to 0.923). Moreover, measurements in setting B required less time than the other two settings (44.59 seconds vs. 108.87 seconds vs. 126.13 seconds, both P<0.01). Conclusion Using an intelligent handheld US device, GPs can perform CP screening and achieve a diagnostic capability comparable to that of specialist doctors.
