OBJECTIVE: To review the research progress of pathological changes of glenohumeral capsule in patients with recurrent shoulder anterior dislocation (RSAD). METHODS: The literature on shoulder capsules, both domestic and international, was reviewed. The anatomy, histology, and molecular biology characteristics of the glenohumeral capsule in RSAD patients were summarized. RESULTS: Anatomically, the glenohumeral capsule is composed of four distinct parts: the upper, lower, anterior, and posterior sections. The thickness of these sections is uneven, and the stability of the capsule is further enhanced by the presence of the glenohumeral and coracohumeral ligaments. Histologically, the capsule tissue undergoes adaptive changes following RSAD, which improve its ability to withstand stretching and deformation. In the realm of molecular biology, genes associated with the regulation of structure formation, function, and extracellular matrix homeostasis of the shoulder capsule's collagen fibers exhibit varying degrees of expression changes. Specifically, the up-regulation of transforming growth factor β ₁ (TGF-β ₁), TGF-β receptor 1, lysyl oxidase, and procollagen-lysine, 2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 1 facilitates the repair of the joint capsule, thereby contributing to the maintenance of shoulder joint stability. Conversely, the up-regulation of collagen type Ⅰ alpha 1 (COL1A1), COL3A1, and COL5A1 is linked to the recurrence of shoulder anterior dislocation, as these changes reflect the joint capsule's response to dislocation. Additionally, the expressions of tenascin C and fibronectin 1 may play a role in the pathological processes occurring during the early stages of RSAD. CONCLUSION Glenohumeral capsular laxity is both a consequence of RSAD and a significant factor contributing to its recurrence. While numerous studies have documented alterations in the shoulder capsule following RSAD, further research is necessary to confirm the specific pathological anatomy, histological, and molecular biological changes involved.

Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of urinary microbiota transplantation（UMT）in treating interstitial cystitis（IC）.Methods:A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of three patients with IC treated with UMT at the Central Hospital of Jiangnan University from May 2022 to August 2024. Three women（45，62，79 years）presented with urinary frequency（10 - 90 min intervals），urgency，dysuria，lower abdominal pain，and non-organic sleep disorder，with nocturia（2 - 15 episodes）causing sleep difficulty. Disease durations were 3，6，and 21 years. Prior antibiotic therapy failed. Preoperative urinalysis/culture（x2）ruled out bacterial cystitis，and diagnosed as interstitial cystitis（IC），with one of transient positive urine culture. Preoperative scores for case 1 were self-rating depression scale（SDS）of 49，self-rating anxiety scale（SAS）of 31，interstitial cystitis symptom index（ICSI）of 5，interstitial cystitis problem index（ICPI）of 2，brief urological problem scale of 50，genitourinary pain assessment scale of 10，and pain catastrophizing scale（PCS）of 0. For case 2，the scores were 60 of SDS，66 of SAS，9 of ICSI，11 of ICPI，50 of brief urological problem scale，28 of genitourinary pain assessment scale，and 34 of PCS. For case 3，the scores were 44 of SDS，48 of SAS，11 of ICSI，5 of ICPI，33 of brief urological problem scale，27 of genitourinary pain assessment scale，and 21 of PCS. Preoperative bladder hydro-distention showed mucosal hemorrhage including central block hemorrhage（Case 1），numerous spots（Case 2），and distinct sheets（Case 3）. Preoperative urine 16S rRNA sequencing revealed low diversity，increased Gardnerella/ Bacteroides（opportunistic），and decreased Bacillus/ Streptococcus（beneficial）. Two healthy young female donors had normal comprehensive tests covering blood/urine/stool，coagulation，CRP，immunity，liver/kidney function，lipids，infectious diseases，hormones，tumor markers，urine culture，TOUCH，and expanded quantitative urine culture. Donor urine 16S rRNA showed low pathogenic（ Gardnerella/ Bacteroides）abundance. Donor midstream morning urine was catheter-collected，centrifuged，and the bacterial pellet resuspended in saline. Recipients underwent bladder irrigation pre-UMT. On UMT day，donor bacterial suspension was instilled via catheter with adverse event monitoring. Follow-up included clinic visits at 1 month and 1 year for symptom assessment，scale scoring，cystoscopy evaluating mucosal inflammation，hydrodistension checks，and telephone tracking of urinary symptoms every 2 - 3 months. Prognosis was assessed by symptom relief，scale score reduction，and mucosal recovery. Results:No adverse reactions occurred within 24 hours post-UMT in all 3 cases. Two patients showed same-day urinary urgency reduction；three reported relief from urinary frequency/urgency on postoperative day 7，with 2 - 3 hour daytime intervals and 0 - 5 nocturnal voids. Two patients experienced lower abdominal pain alleviation. Postoperative Week 1 urinalysis and urine cultures revealed no abnormalities. The 16S rRNA test showed a decrease in the abundance of harmful bacteria（e.g.， Cupriavidus，Ureaplasm，Mycobacterium，Pseudomonas）and an increase in the abundance of beneficial bacteria（ Dietzia，Halomonas，and Streptococcus），and the overall urobacterial structure was significantly improved and similar to that of the donor. Case 1 was followed up for 20 months，and the lab tests were normal，with SDS scales of 38，SAS of 20，ICSI of 3，ICPI of 2，brief urological problem scale of 44，genitourinary pain assessment scale of 10，PCS of 0，at 9 months post-op follow-up，indicating physical and mental improvement. The bladder hydro-distention revealed intact mucosa with only mild inflammation，which improved versus preoperative situation. Case 2 was followed up for 15 months，and the lab tests were normal，with SDS scales of 44，SAS of 34，ICSI of 4，ICPI of 2，brief scale of urinary problems of 0，genitourinary pain assessment scale of 9，PCS of 7，at 2 months post-op follow-up，showing improved anxiety/depression and quality of life. The hydro-distention showed decreased scattered hemorrhagic dots and mucosal inflammation. Case 3 was followed up for 13 months，with an increased leukocytes of urine and the other being normal for lab tests，and SDS scales of 35，SAS of 46，ICSI of 13，ICPI of 13，brief scale of urinary problems of 10，genitourinary pain assessment scale of 33，PCS of 11，at 13 months post-op follow-up，indicating physical and mental improvement. The hydro-distention revealed mucosal congestion，marked submucosal vasodilation，and inflammation decreased compared with preoperative situation. Conclusions:UMT alleviates urinary frequency，urgency，and pain in IC patients with sustained effects，significantly improves urine microecology，and shows no adverse events，positioning it as a viable intervention for IC.

Objective:To analyze the echocardiographic and genetic characteristics of fetuses with common arterial trunk（CAT）.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 77 480 fetal echocardiograms examined at the Maternal-Fetal Medicine center in Fetal Heart Disease of Beijing Anzhen Hospital from November 2010 to November 2024.Among them，106 fetuses were initially diagnosed with CAT，and 95 cases were ultimately confirmed（0.1%，95/77 480）. The echocardiographic and genetic features of CAT fetuses were analyzed. According to the modified Van Praagh classification，CAT was divided into types A1-A4［with ventricular septal defect（VSD）］and B1-B4（without VSD）based on the origin of the pulmonary artery branches and the presence or absence of a VSD. Additionally，CAT was categorized into isolated and complex types based on the presence of associated intracardiac or extracardiac anomalies.Results:① Among the 95 confirmed CAT fetuses，type A accounted for 90.5%（86/95），and type B accounted for 9.5%（9/95）. All 9 type B CAT fetuses exhibited no overriding of the arterial trunk ， with 8 cases showing left ventricular hypoplasia accompanied by mitral atresia or absence.② Of the 95 CAT fetuses，14 were isolated（14.7%，14/95） ， and 81 were complex（85.3%，81/95）.The main associated intracardiac anomalies included：single ventricle（22 cases），complete atrioventricular septal defect（12 cases），anomalous pulmonary venous drainage（10 cases），right aortic arch with mirror-image branching（16 cases），and persistent left superior vena cava（14 cases）. ③ Genetic testing was performed in 31 fetuses，with 18 showing positive results，primarily 22q11.21 deletion syndrome（29.0%，9/31）. Conclusions:Apart from VSD，the most common intracardiac anomaly associated with CAT fetuses is single ventricle. Type B CAT without trunk overriding is often associated with left ventricular hypoplasia and mitral atresia or absence. The most frequent genetic abnormality in CAT fetuses is 22q11.21 deletion syndrome. Prenatal echocardiography should clarify the CAT subtype and associated anomalies，and genetic testing is strongly recommended for perinatal counseling and prognostic evaluation.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of toric collamer lens (TICL) rotation on myopia combined with astigmatism correction after V4c TICL implantation using standardized vector analysis.Methods:An observational case series study was performed.A total of 152 patients (268 eyes) who underwent V4c TICL implantation for the correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism were enrolled at Henan Eye Hospital from January to December 2021.The preoperative spherical diopter, cylindrical diopter, and spherical equivalent (SE) were -15.00 to -3.25 D, -5.00 to -0.50 D, -16.50 to -3.88 D, respectively.Postoperative TICL vault and axis were measured by anterior segment optical coherence tomography, and postoperative TICL rotation was calculated.Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), spherical diopter, cylindrical diopter, SE, and target astigmatism vector were recorded before and 1 month after surgery.The effectiveness index, safety index, surgically induced astigmatism vector (SIA), margin of error (ME), absolute value of the difference vector |DV|, correction index (CI), and achievement index (IS) were calculated based on the subjective refraction results 1 month after surgery and the cylindrical axis of the V4c TICL.Vector analysis parameters was compared among patients with different preoperative astigmatism, intraoperative TICL fixation, postoperative TICL rotation, and postoperative vault.The correlation between postoperative TICL rotation and TICL fixed angle deviation, postoperative vault, visual acuity and refraction, and vector analysis parameters were evaluated.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Henan Eye Hospital (No.HNEECKY-2021[13]).Written informed consent was obtained from each subject.Results:At 1 month postoperatively, the mean safety and efficacy indices were 1.27 and 1.29, respectively.There was no statistically significant difference between the predicted SE of (-0.11±0.13)D and the postoperative SE of (-0.07±0.52)D ( t=-0.994, P=0.321).UCVA, BCVA and cylinder diopter in the operative eyes were all improved after surgery compared to before surgery and the differences were statistically significant ( t=17.854, 5.446, -25.634; all P<0.001).The rotation of V4c TICL was 0° to 25°, with a mean of (5.41±4.35)°, which was positively correlated with the V4c TICL fixed angle deviation ( rs=0.461, P<0.001), negatively correlated with postoperative cylindrical diopter and positively correlated with postoperative UCVA, |DV| and SIA ( r=-0.360, 0.191, 0.205, 0.142; all P<0.05).Vector analysis between groups showed that vault, SIA and |DV| were higher and CI and IS were lower in low astigmatism group than in high astigmatism group ( Z=-3.017, -13.569, -2.793, -2.761, -4.779; all P<0.05).V4c TICL rotation and |DV| were lower in low fixation angle difference group than in high fixation angle difference group ( Z=-7.865, -2.080; both P<0.05).Preoperative cylindrical diopter, intraoperative V4c TICL fixed angle deviation, SIA and |DV| were lower in low rotation group than in high rotation group ( Z=-2.104, -4.578, -2.456, -2.090; all P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the TICL rotation or in each vector between patients with different vault after the surgery (all P>0.05). Conclusions:V4c TICL implantation can achieve good results for the correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism.There is a slight difference between the fixation axis and the target axis of V4c TICL, which affects the rotation of V4c TICL and |DV|.Postoperative V4c TICL rotation is related to TICL fixed angle deviation, postoperative UCVA, SIA, |DV| and postoperative cylindrical diopter.Postoperative vault has no significant effect on TICL rotation and differences in each vector.
