Ferroptosis is a form of programmed cell death characterized by overwhelmed lipid oxidation, and it has emerged as a promising strategy for cancer therapy. Enhanced ferroptosis could overcome the limitations of conventional therapeutic modalities, particularly in difficult-to-treat tumors. In this study, we developed a dual-modality therapy in nanomedicine by combining paclitaxel (PTX) chemotherapy and pyropheophorbide-a (Ppa) phototherapy. Heparin (HP) was grafted with poly(N-(2'-hydroxy) propyl methacrylamide) (pHPMA) using reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization to form HP-pHPMA (HH), which was utilized to deliver Ppa and PTX, yielding HP-pHPMA-Ppa (HH-Ppa) and HP-pHPMA-PTX (HH-PTX), respectively. The prodrug-based combinational nanomedicine (HH-PP) was formed by co-assembly of HH-PTX and HH-Ppa. It was found that HH-PP treatment significantly disrupted lipid metabolism in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells, induced extensive lipid oxidation, and promoted ferroptosis. In vivo, HH-PP intervention achieved a tumor growth inhibition rate of 86.63% and activated adaptive immunity with an elevated CD8⁺ cytotoxic T cell infiltration level. This combinational nanomedicine offers a promising platform for co-delivery of multiple therapeutic agents. It exerts a promising anti-tumor effect via enhanced ferroptosis and ferroptosis-induced immune activation by disrupting lipid metabolism in TNBC cancer cells.

Tooth autotransplantation is a restoration technology that grafts the patient's own teeth to the missing tooth area, usually by using the third molar to replace a nonnormally functioning molar for the purpose of "turning waste into treasure". Robotic surgical assistance has been widely used in the fields of breast cancer, liver cancer, and orthopedics; however, its application in the dental field, particularly in tooth autotransplantation, remains relatively rare. This paper reports a case of tooth autotransplantation with the assistance of a domestic autonomous oral surgery robot, providing a reference for the application of robotic surgery assistance in tooth autotransplantation.

Objective To investigate the association between metabolic associated fatty liver disease(MAFLD)and carotid atherosclerotic plaque.Methods A total of 1 107 patients who were hospitalized in The Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from July,2014 to December,2022 were enrolled,and all patients underwent abdominal ultrasound and CT angiography of the head and neck arteries.Baseline data and clinical diagnosis were collected,and the patients were divided into MAFLD group with 499 patients and non-MAFLD group with 608 patients based on medical history,clinical tests,and imaging findings.According to the CT value,carotid plaques were classified into calcified plaques,non-calcified plaques,and mixed plaques.According to the NASCET criteria,carotid stenosis was categorized as normal vessel,slight stenosis,mild stenosis,moderate stenosis,and severe stenosis/occlusion.The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups,and the Mann-Whitney U rank sum test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups;the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to investigate the influencing factors for carotid atherosclerosis.Results Compared with the non-MAFLD group,the MAFLD group had a significantly higher proportion of patients with calcified plaques(74.3%vs 63.3%,P<0.05),non-calcified plaques(27.1%vs 17.1%,P<0.05),or mixed plaques(27.3%vs 20.7%,P<0.05),as well as a significantly higher proportion of patients with mild stenosis(50.9%vs 44.9%,P<0.05),moderate stenosis(14.6%vs 8.4%,P<0.05),or severe stenosis/occlusion(6.6%vs 3.5%,P<0.05).The univariate logistic regression analysis showed that MAFLD was a risk factor for calcified carotid plaques,non-calcified plaques,and mixed plaques,and it was also a risk factor for mild stenosis,moderate stenosis,and severe stenosis/occlusion of the carotid artery(all P<0.05).After adjustment for confounding factors,the multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that MAFLD was an independent risk factor for calcified plaque,non-calcified plaque,mixed plaque,and moderate stenosis of the carotid arteries(all P<0.05).Conclusion MAFLD is an independent risk factor for moderate stenosis,calcified plaques,non-calcified plaques,and mixed plaques of the carotid arteries.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Feisu Granules,and its effects on quality of life,coagulation and immune function in acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD)with syndrome of phlegm-heat and blood stasis of lung.Methods Totally 120 AECOPD patients were divided into observation group and control group according to random number table method,with 60 cases in each group.The control group was given conventional Western medicine treatment,and the observation group received Feisu Granules treatment on the basis of the control group,one bag each time,three times a day,orally.The treatment for both groups lasted for 7 d.The clinical efficacy of both groups were observed.TCM symptom scores,St.George's respiratory questionnaire(SGRQ)score,coagulation function indexes(fibrinogen,D-dimer),and immune function indexes(CD4+,CD8+,CD4+/CD8+)of both groups were compared.The side effects were observed.Results The total effective rate in the observation group(93.10%)was significantly higher than that of the control group(79.66%),with statistical significance(P<0.05).Compared with before treatment,TCM symptom scores,scores of cough,wheezing,venous congestion,and SGRQ score decreased in both groups after treatment(P<0.05);after treatment,the observation group had lower above scores than the control group(P<0.05).Compared with before treatment,both groups showed a decrease in plasma fibrinogen and D-dimer levels after treatment(P<0.05);after treatment,the observation group showed lower levels of plasma fibrinogen and D-dimer compared with the control group(P<0.05).Compared with before treatment,the peripheral blood CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ levels in both groups significantly increased after treatment,while CD8+ levels significantly decreased(P<0.05);after treatment,the peripheral blood CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,while CD8+ was lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).Neither group had any drug-related side effects.Conclusion On the basis of conventional Western medicine,the combination of Feisu Granules in the treatment of AECOPD with syndrome of phlegm-heat and blood stasis of lung can significantly improve clinical efficacy,improve patient quality of life,facilitate coagulation function recovery,and enhance cellular immune function.

[Objective[ To analyze the main syndrome types, medication rules, and core prescription characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in the treatment of metabolism-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), and to predict the anti-MAFLD mechanism of core formula, so as to provide references for the clinical application of TCM and the development of new drugs. [Methods] Literature research on TCM in treating MAFLD was retrieved from China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China Science and Technology Journal Database (VIP), and Wanfang Database since the establishment of the database to July 2022. Excel 2019 and Chinese Medicine Inheritance Computing Platform (V3.0) were used for frequency analysis, association rule analysis, and cluster analysis of effective prescriptions. The key components, targets, and action pathways of anti-MAFLD core formulas were predicted by network pharmacology. Finally, the interactions between the obtained core components and their core targets were verified reversely by molecular docking technology. [Results] A total of 218 articles were screened and selected, including 352 prescriptions, involving 270 traditional Chinese herbs. The drugs were used a total of 3 901 times, and a total of 10 915 cases were collected, among which the prevalence rate was higher in males. The main types of TCM syndrome included intermingled phlegm and blood stasis syndrome, liver depression and spleen deficiency syndrome, and damp-heat in liver and gallbladder syndrome, among which Shanzha (Crataegi Fructus), Danshen (Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Fuling (Poria), Zexie (Alismatis Rhizoma), Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix), and Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) were the most frequently used. The properties of Chinese medicine primarily encompassed thermal characteristics, with a predominant emphasis on cold and warm; the flavors of herbs were predominantly characterized by bitterness and sweetness, while the majority exhibited tropism towards the spleen and liver meridians. The drugs were primarily classified based on their efficacy in tonifying deficiencies, promoting diuresis and moistening, enhancing blood circulation and removing blood stasisheat-clearing, etc. The association rules were employed to derive a set of 20 core drug pairs, while cluster analysis was utilized to identify three distinct groups of core drug combinations. Network pharmacological showed that the main components of the core formula “Shanzha (Crataegi Fructus) - Danshen (Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) - Zexie (Alismatis Rhizoma) - Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix) - Fuling (Poria)” in the treatment of MAFLD were quercetin, apigenin, puerarin, luteolin, ursolic acid, kaempferol, tanshinone IIA, emodin, paeonol, etc., which involved RAC-alpha serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (AKT1), cellular tumor antigen p53 (TP53), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), peroxisome proliferative activated receptor gamma (PPARG), and other key targets. The molecular docking results showed that the core components had good binding to lipid and atherosclerosis, and phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K)/AKT signaling pathway-associated proteins. [Conclusion] The main principles of TCM for the treatment of MAFLD involve soothing the liver and strengthening the spleen, eliminating phlegm and dampness, clearing heat and dampness, as well as promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. The core formula may exert anti-MAFLD effects mediated through multiple components, targets, and signaling pathways. This study establishes a theoretical foundation for the clinical application of TCM in the treatment of MAFLD, and serves as a reference for further exploration of new drugs against MAFLD.

Objective To evaluate biomechanical properties of the personalized titanium alloy short femoral prosthesis by finite element analysis. Methods Based on the validated femoral finite element model, the base of the femoral neck was simulated, and by inserting different short femoral prostheses, four total hip replacement (THR) models, namely, the SMF stem model (Model A), BE1 stem model (Model B), MINI stem model (Model C) and personalized stem model (Model D) were established, respectively. The same loads and constraints were applied to four groups of models, and the von Mises stress distribution and deformation were calculated and analyzed, so as to compare mechanical stability of each model. Results The deformation of all THR models was smaller than that of the femur model under physiological state. The deformation of Model B was close to that of Model C, and the deformation of Model A was close to that of Model D. The peak stress of Model C was higher than that of the other 3 models, reaching 9555 MPa. The overall stress trend was Model C > Model B > Model D> Model A > Model under physiological state. Conclusions The peak stress, stress distribution of personalized short femoral stem were similar to that of SMF stem, with reasonable stress distribution, small stress shielding of the proximal femur, minimum overall deformation and shear stress of the prosthesis, and its effectiveness and stability could meet the requirements of human biomechanics, which could provide references for joint surgeons and prosthesis researchers.
