Objective: To explore the therapeutic effects of different surgical methods for temporomandibular joint disc reduction and anchoring surgery, providing reference for optimizing this surgical procedure. Method: The study was approved by the hospital ethics committee. 173 patients (195 joints) who underwent temporomandibular joint disc repositioning and anchoring surgery were selected for retrospective analysis. Patients were categorized into groups A (traditional preauricular incision-scalpel/tissue scissors anterior attachment release), 35 patients (40 joints), B (traditional preauricular incision-plasma bipolar radiofrequency electrode anterior attachment release), 42 patients (46 joints), C (revised tragus incision - scalpel/tissue scissors anterior attachment release), 50 patients (58 joints), and D (revised tragus incision-plasma bipolar radiofrequency electrode anterior attachment release), 46 patients (51 joints). After a 6-month postoperative follow-up, the differences in maximum mouth opening (MMO), visual analogue scale (VAS), effective rate of joint disc reduction, incidence of preauricular numbness, obvious scars among patients in each group at 1, 3, and 6 months were compared postoperatively. Results: After surgery, the MMO of all four groups of patients initially shrunk and then gradually increased compared to before surgery. At the 1-month follow-up after surgery, the plasma bipolar radiofrequency release (B+D) group had a smaller impact on the patient’s MMO compared to the surgical knife/tissue scissors release (A+C) group (P < 0.05). Postoperative VAS scores for all four groups showed a gradual decrease from pre-operative levels, with the (B+D) group scoring significantly lower in the first month post-surgery compared to the (A+C) group (P < 0.05). Six months post-surgery, the rate of joint disc reduction of the four groups were higher than 95%, with no significant differences observed between the groups (P > 0.05). Patients in the revised tragus incision (C+D) group experienced a lower rate of preauricular numbness compared to those in the traditional preauricular incision (A+B) group (4.59% vs. 12.79%, P < 0.05), The incidence of obvious scars in the (C+D) group was significantly lower than that in the (A+B) group (3.67% vs. 23.26%, P < 0.05). Conclusion The revised tragus incision is superior to traditional preauricular incision in terms of protecting the auriculotemporal nerve and the scars were more inconspicuous. Further, the plasma bipolar radiofrequency electrode is superior to the scalpel/tissue scissors in terms of mouth opening recovery and pain control. For temporomandibular joint disc reduction and anchoring surgery, a modified tragus incision combined with plasma bipolar radiofrequency electrode to release the anterior attachment of the joint disc can be recommended as a surgical option.

Objective:To assess the association between temperature and risk of animal injury, and identifying vulnerable populations.Methods:Based on a time-stratified case-crossover design, the number of animal injuries monitored in hospitals of Guangdong Provincial Injury Surveillance System in 2011 and 2015-2016 was included, and the daily meteorological data were derived from the fifth generation of European ReAnalysis-Land, which was produced by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. Conditional logistic regression combined with a distributed lagged nonlinear model was applied to analyze the association of temperature and animal-specific injuries. We also conducted stratified analysis by region, sex, age, occupation, and location of injury occurrence.Results:There was an almost linear relationship between temperature and the occurrence of animal injury. The excess risk ( ER) of animal injury was 2.65% (95% CI: 2.27%-3.04%) for a 1 ℃ rise in temperature with much higher risk of occurrence ( ER=9.34%, 95% CI: 7.57%-11.13%) for non-mammalian injury than that for mammalian injuries ( ER=2.30%, 95% CI: 1.90%-2.70%). Stratified analysis revealed that the occurrence of animal injury was more susceptible to temperature influences in urban ( ER=2.78%, 95% CI: 2.35%-3.21%), female ( ER=2.71%, 95% CI: 2.16%-3.27%), the elderly aged 60 years and above ( ER=3.05%, 95% CI: 1.65%- 4.47%), farmer ( ER=4.66%, 95% CI: 3.03%-6.32%) and agricultural area ( ER=10.63%, 95% CI: 7.57%-13.79%) than their correspondents. In terms of mammalian injury, dog bites showed the highest risk ( ER=2.71%, 95% CI: 2.12%-3.30%). In terms of non-mammalian,snake injuries were highly influenced by temperature ( ER=16.74%, 95% CI: 11.33%-22.40%). Conclusions:The ambient temperature rises could increase the risk of animal injury with much higher risk for non-mammalian than that for mammalian injuries. Our findings suggest that global warming may increase the risk and disease burden from animal injuries.

Objective:To explore the anal function and postoperative complications of 2-stage Turnbull-Cutait pull-through coloanal anastomosis (TCA) for low rectal cancer.Methods:Patients undergoing radical rectal cancer resection from Feb 2023 to Nov 2024 in the First Hospital of Jilin University were divided into the TCA surgery group and the low anterior resection combined with prophylactic stoma (LAR) surgery group.Results:Among the 102 patients, there were 50 cases in the TCA group and 52 cases in the LAR group. In the single-arm analysis of the TCA group, the overall complication rate was 44%. The incidence rates of severe LARS at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery were 97%, 77%, and 64% respectively. There was no significant difference in the complication rate within 30 days after surgery between the two groups,(44% vs. 38%, χ2=0.135, P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence rate of severe LARS between the TCA group and the LAR group (77% vs. 69%, χ2=0.202, P>0.05), and there was not significant difference in the incidence rate of severe LARS between the two groups at the 6th month after surgery,(64% vs. 48%, χ2=1.132, P>0.05). Conclusion:In patients who underwent TCA surgery, the LARS symptoms gradually decreased over time. Compared with patients undergoing low anterior resection and stoma reversal, there were no significant differences in complications within 30 days after surgery and LARS symptoms within half a year.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus(PRRSV)mainly causes sow abor-tion,stillbirth,mummified fetus and respiratory symptoms in piglets.Since first reported in China in 1996,the virus complexity has increased significantly in more than 20 years of genetic evolution,bringing huge economic losses to the pig industry.In recent years,with the emergence of various PRRSV recombinant virus strains,preventing and controlling this epidemic became increasingly difficult.The purpose of this article is to comprehensively review the genome structure and func-tion of PRRSV,RNA virus recombination mechanism,main types of recombination,and the epi-demic status and recombination for the dominant epidemic PRRSV strains,in order to provide clues for in-depth research on gene recombination of PRRSV,thus providing the theoretical sup-port for formulating scientific prevention and control strategies.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of bridging therapy and direct thrombectomy in patients with acute ischemic stroke caused by basilar artery occlusion within 4.5 h.Methods Retrospective consecutive patients with acute basilar artery occlusion stroke within 4.5 h of onset admitted to five centers from January 2018 to August 2024 were included and divided into a bridging therapy(intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase given prior to emergency endovascular treatment)group and a direct thrombectomy group according to the treatment modality.Baseline and clinical data were collected from patients,including age,sex,systolic and diastolic blood pressure on admission,past history(including history of hypertension,diabetes mellitus,coronary artery disease,atrial fibrillation,hyperlipidemia,and history of stroke),history of smoking,pre-morbid modified Rankin scale(mRS)scores,National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS)score on admission,posterior circulation Alberta stroke program early CT score on admission,basilar artery CT angiography score,history of pre-procedural antiplatelet aggregation medications,history of pre-procedural anticoagulant medications,choice of arterial puncture access(via femoral or radial artery),site of vascular occlusion(proximal basilar artery,mid-basilar artery,distal basilar artery),trial of Org 10172 in acute stroke treatment(TOAST)classification,American Society of Interventional and Therapeutic Neuroradiology/Society of Interventional Radiology collateral circulation classification,time from onset to admission,time from admission to puncture,time from puncture to revascularization,time from onset to revascularisation,type of embolisation procedure(stenting,aspiration,and combined),immediate post-procedure extended thrombolysis in cerebral infarction(eTICI)classification,and intra-procedural related complications(arterial entrapment,distal occlusion and arterial perforation).The main efficacy indicators(good prognosis[mRS score 0-3 90 d postoperatively],death[mRS score 6 90 d postoperatively],and good recanalisation[eTICI grade ≥2b50]within the immediate postoperative period)and safety indicators(incidence of symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage[sICH]within 7 days post-procedure)were compared between the two groups.The two groups were matched 1∶1 using propensity score matching(PSM)to compare differences in effectiveness and safety indices before and after PSM.Variables with P＜0.05 in the baseline and clinical data comparison between the two groups were included in multifactorial Logistic regression analysis for correction,the differences in safety and efficacy between the two groups were compared before and after correction.Results A total of 206 patients with acute ischemic stroke caused by basilar artery occlusion within 4.5 h of onset were included,comprising 151 males and 55 females.The age ranged from 26 to 93 years old,with an average of(65±13)years old.Among them,101 patients(49.0％)were in the bridging therapy group and 105(51.0％)in the direct thrombectomy group.After 1∶1 PSM,each group consisted of 69 patients.(1)The differences in the proportion of patients with atrial fibrillation between the bridging therapy group and the direct thrombectomy group(16.8％[17/101]vs.28.6％[30/105]),the distribution of pre-morbid mRS scores,and the distribution of TOAST subtypes were statistically significant(all P＜0.05);the differences in the residual baseline and clinical data of the two groups were not statistically significant(all P＞0.05).After 1∶1 PSM,the differences in all baseline and clinical data between the two groups were not statistically significant(all P＞0.05).(2)No statistically significant differences were observed between the bridging therapy group and direct thrombectomy group in the good prognosis rate at 90 d postoperatively,morbidity and mortality rates at 90 d postoperatively,or good revascularization rate in the immediate postoperative period(all P＞0.05).However,the risk of sICH at 7 d postoperatively was higher in the bridging therapy group(9.5％[10/105]vs.19.8％[20/101];OR,2.346,95％CI 1.038-5.299,P=0.037).After correcting for variables with statistically significant differences in baseline and clinical data between the direct thrombectomy group and bridging therapy groups(atrial fibrillation,pre-onset mRS score,and TOAST classification)using a multifactorial Logistic regression model,the results showed no statistically significant differences in the effectiveness and safety metrics between the two groups(all P＞0.05).(3)The results after 1∶1 PSM showed that the bridging therapy group had a higher risk of sICH(11.6％[8/69]vs.26.1％[18/69];OR,2.691,95％CI 1.081-6.700,P=0.033).No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of good prognosis rate at 90 d postoperatively,disease-related mortality rate at 90 d postoperatively,or rate of good revascularization in the immediate postoperative period(all P＞0.05).Conclusions In patients with acute basilar artery occlusion stroke within 4.5 h of onset,the effectiveness of bridging therapy and direct thrombectomy was similar,but the incidence of sICH was higher with bridging therapy.The results of this study still need further validation through prospective studies with larger sample sizes.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Qixian Tongluo Formula in the treatment of post-cerebral infarction paralysis with kidney deficiency and blood stasis syndrome,and to preliminarily explore the molecular mechanism of Qixian Tongluo Formula in improving impaired motor function from the perspective of cross-kingdom regulation of Chinese medicine microRNA(miRNA).Methods A pragmatic randomized controlled trial was conducted with 102 patients in the recovery period of post-cerebral infarction paralysis with kidney deficiency and blood stasis syndrome in our hospital.Patients were randomly divided into trial group and control group,with 51 cases in each group.The control group received standard Western medicine standard treatment,while the trial group received Qixian Tongluo Formula in addition to the standard treatment,with one dose per day,boiled in water,and taken warm after breakfast and dinner for a course of 2 months.The disability rate was used as the main efficacy indicator,and the incidence of adverse reactions was used as a safety indicator.miRNA from patient serum and Qixian Tongluo decoction were extracted respectively,and high-throughput sequencing was performed.The two sequences were compared to screen out the cross-kingdom gene transfer of Chinese medicine miRNA.Finally,its target genes of miRNA were predicted,and GO function and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were carried out.Results A total of 67 patients completed the clinical trial,including 36 cases in the trial group and 31 cases in the control group;The disability rate in the trial group(13.9%)was lower than that in the control group(35.5%)(P<0.05);The incidence of adverse reactions was similar between the trial group(7.69%)and the control group(6.06%)(P>0.05);A total of 9530 Qixian Tongluo decoction miRNA sequences were screened,with 150 potentially involved in cross-kingdom gene transfer,including families such as miR-15 and miR-17;According to the target gene prediction of the top 10 miRNAs in cross-kingdom gene transfer of Chinese medicine,345 overlapping target genes were obtained;GO functional enrichment analysis revealed 16 biological processes,7 cellular components,and 2 molecular functions among the top 25 enriched functions,while KEGG pathway analysis mainly focused on the transforming growth factor-βsignaling pathway,neurotrophin signaling pathway,which are closely related to neural repair and functional recovery processes such as glial scar formation and synaptic plasticity after cerebral ischemia.Conclusion Qixian Tongluo Formula can significantly improve the functional independence level of patients with kidney deficiency and blood stasis syndrome in the recovery period of paralysis after cerebral infarction,offering a safe and effective treatment option for these patients;There were a large number of miRNAs in Qixian Tongluo decoction,some of which could cross-kingdom transferred into the human blood circulation,and promote the recovery of motor function in patients with cerebral infarction through multi-target,multi link and multi pathway gene network regulation.This study provides a new idea for subsequent clinical and basic research.

Objective:To explore the mediating effect of attitudes to aging between intergenerational support and health behavior in elderly stroke patients.Methods:From March 2023 to February 2024, elderly stroke patients hospitalized in the Department of Neurology at Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University, were selected as study subjects using convenience sampling. The survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, Attitudes to Ageing Questionnaire (AAQ), Intergenerational Support Scale (ISS), and Stroke Health Behavior Questionnaire (SHBQ). Pearson correlation was employed to analyze the relationships among attitudes to aging, intergenerational support, and health behavior. AMOS 21.0 software was used to construct the structural equation model and verify the mediating effect.Results:A total of 250 questionnaires were distributed, and 243 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 97.20%. The AAQ, ISS, and SHBQ scores of 243 elderly stroke patients were (70.57±9.03), (19.74±3.65), and (71.67±5.50), respectively. Attitudes to aging were positively correlated with both intergenerational support and health behavior ( P<0.05), and intergenerational support was positively correlated with health behavior ( P<0.05). Intergenerational support had a direct positive effect on health behavior (β=0.552), and attitudes to aging had a direct positive effect on health behavior (β=0.632). Attitudes to aging partially mediated the relationship between intergenerational support and health behavior, accounting for 38.12% (0.340/0.892) of the total effect. Conclusions:Attitudes to aging partially mediates the relationship between intergenerational support and health behavior. Improving intergenerational support may foster positive attitudes to aging, thereby promoting the development of healthy behavior among elderly stroke patients.

Objective:To investigate the occurrence and characteristics of adverse reactions of Xuesaitong preparations, mine its coagulation disorders/bleeding risk signals, and provide references for its safe and rational use in clinic. Methods:The reports of adverse drug reactions (ADR) caused by Xuesaitong preparations from August 2003 to August 2023 in the database of Shandong Provincial Center of Adverse Drug Reaction Monitoring were collected. ADR were counted and classified using the system organ class (SOC) and preferred term (PT) of Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities 26.1. Three methods, namely the reporting odds ratio (ROR), the proportional reporting ratio (PRR), and the comprehensive standard method of the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) of the United Kingdom, were used to detect the risk signals of coagulation disorders/bleeding in using Xuesaitong preparations. Results:A total of 17 015 reports of ADR related to Xuesaitong preparations were collected, involving 9 dosage forms, in which injection dosage form accounted for 95.50% (16 250/17 015). The median age of the patients was 62 years, 44.87% of the cases were 45-64 years and 42.90% of them were 65 years and above. There were 2 217 cases of severe ADR reports, accounting for 13.03% (2 217/17 015). A total of 18 SOCs were involved, the top 3 were skin and subcutaneous tissue diseases, systemic diseases and drug administration site reactions, and neurological diseases. A total of 54 PTs were not recorded in the instructions, among which 34 were severe. Ninety-three cases about coagulation disorders/bleeding (98 times) were reported, the top 3 PTs were hematuria [24.49% (24/98)], purpura [11.22% (11/98)], and epistaxis [10.20% (10/98)]. Seven dosage forms of Xuesaitong preparations were involved, the top 3 were Xuesaitong for injection (freeze-dried) (48 cases, accounting for 51.61%), Xuesaitong injection (29 cases, accounting for 31.18%), and Xuesaitong tablets (8 cases, accounting for 8.60%). Among 93 reports of coagulation disorders/bleeding, there were 23 severe cases, accounting for 24.73%, which was significantly higher than that in other reports (12.97%), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). Sixteen PTs about coagulation disorders/bleeding were not recorded in the instructions, among which 9 were severe. The proportion of cases with onset time longer than 7 days in ADRs about coagulation disorders/bleeding was higher than that in other ADRs [22.58%(21/93) vs. 7.43%(1 258/16 922), P<0.001]. The risk signals of coagulation disorders/bleeding were mined for Xuesaitong for injection (freeze-dried), Xuesaitong injection, Xuesaitong tablets, and Xuesaitong capsules, and the risk signal density of Xuesaitong tablets was the strongest. Conclusions:The ADRs of Xuesaitong preparations involve multiple systems and organs. Among them, Xuesaitong for injection (freeze-dried), Xuesaitong injection, Xuesaitong tablets, and Xuesaitong capsules have a strong association with coagulation disorders/bleeding risks, and the proportion of severe cases is relatively high. However, the relevant risk warning information is not included in the drug instructions of some manufacturers. Medication monitoring needs to be strengthened and timely intervention should be carried out in clinic.
