BACKGROUND:BCR/ABL gene is a specific gene of Ph chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia,and its expression level has become a sensitive indicator for monitoring minimal residual disease before and after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.However,whether the expression level of BCR/ABL gene before transplantation affects the efficacy of transplantation and how to guide the early intervention of relapse with tyrosine kinase inhibitors after transplantation is still inconclusive.OBJECTIVE:To explore the relationship between BCR/ABL gene expression and recurrence in patients with Ph chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia before and after related and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.METHODS:Twenty-four patients with Ph chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia who achieved complete hematological remission and underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were selected at the Affiliated Hospital of North China University of Science and Technology between January 2015 and December 2022.Real time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to dynamically detect the expression levels of BCR/ABL genes during treatment,representing minimal residual disease.Based on BCR/ABL gene expression,tyrosine kinase inhibitors combined with chemotherapy was administered before transplantation to select the timing of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.After transplantation,the disease status was evaluated to guide the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors,and an early intervention plan for recurrence was developed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Follow-up was until December 2023,with a median follow-up time of 49(12-82)months.There were 8 cases of hematological recurrence,with a median recurrence time of 14(8-39)months and a cumulative recurrence rate of 33％(8/24).Univariate analysis showed that recurrence after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation was not significantly correlated with gender,age,extramedullary complications,time from diagnosis to transplantation,HLA typing,acute graft-versus-host disease,and chronic graft-versus-host disease(P＞0.05).There was a significant correlation between the relief treatment course and minimal residual disease levels before transplantation.The second hematology completely resolution and positive minimal residual disease before transplantation had a higher hematological recurrence rate(P＜0.05).The 3-year cumulative recurrence rate,disease-free survival rate,and overall survival rate were 27％,63％,and 74％;the 5-year cumulative recurrence rate,disease-free survival rate,and overall survival rate were 38％,57％,and 74％,respectively.It is concluded that Ph chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients with BCR/ABL gene positive before transplantation have a higher recurrence rate.BCR/ABL gene expression after transplantation can guide the application of tyrosine kinase inhibitors and serve as a basis for early intervention in recurrence.

BACKGROUND:Magnetic nanomaterials,as a hot topic in the biomedical field in recent years,are often used to enhance the targeted delivery of drugs to the affected area.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of magnetic nano drug carriers on skeletal muscle injury markers and inflammatory responses in rats with sports injuries.METHODS:Magnetic nanoparticles were prepared.A total of 88 male SD rats were randomly divided into a blank group(n=8),an injury control group(n=32),a Yunnan Baiyao group(n=24),and a magnetic nano-drug carrier group(n=24)by using a random number table method.The latter three groups were modeled with exercise-induced muscle injury(treadmill slope of-16°,running speed of 16 m/min,and training time of 120 min).Immediately after exercise,after verifying the success of the model,Yunnan Baiyao patch was applied to the gastrocnemius muscle of the rats in the Yunnan Baiyao group.Yunnan Baiyao patch loaded with magnetic nanoparticles was applied to the gastrocnemius muscle of the rats in the magnetic nano-drug carrier group.At 24,48,and 120 hours after exercise,blood was drawn from the abdominal aorta of rats to detect the activities of creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase,as well as the levels of myoglobin,interleukin-6,and tumor necrosis factor-α.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the infiltration of inflammatory cells in the gastrocnemius muscle.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the blank group,the levels of myoglobin,creatine kinase,lactate dehydrogenase and tumor necrosis factorα in the injury control group at 24,48 and 120 hours after exercise were increased(P＜0.05),and the level of interleukin 6 at 24 and 120 hours after exercise was increased(P＜0.05).Compared with the injury control group,the level of myoglobin in the Yunnan Baiyao group at 24 and 48 hours after exercise was decreased(P＜0.05),the activities of creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase at 24,48 and 120 hours were decreased(P＜0.05),and the levels of interleukin 6 and tumor necrosis factor α at 120 hours after exercise were decreased(P＜0.05).Compared with the Yunnan Baiyao group,the level of myoglobin in the magnetic nano-drug carrier group at 24 and 48 hours after exercise was decreased(P＜0.05),the activities of creatine kinase and tumor necrosis factor α at 48 and 120 hours after exercise were decreased(P＜0.05),and the lactate dehydrogenase activity was reduced(P＜0.05).(2)Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrated in the muscle fibers of the injury control group 24 hours after exercise,and then the inflammatory cell infiltration gradually decreased,and the local damaged muscle fibers began to regenerate 120 hours after exercise.A large number of inflammatory cells infiltrated in the muscle fibers of the Yunnan Baiyao group and the magnetic nano-drug carrier group 24 hours after exercise,and then the inflammatory cell infiltration gradually decreased,and the damaged muscle fibers were regenerating 120 hours after exercise,and there was no significant difference from the blank group.(3)The results show that Yunnan Baiyao patch combined with magnetic nanoparticles can accelerate the recovery of exercise-induced muscle injury in rats,and the effect is better than that of Yunnan Baiyao alone.

BACKGROUND:Research has found that human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma and human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cells have certain therapeutic effects on thin endometrium.However,there are currently no reports on the study of human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells on thin endometrium,and there is a lack of relevant research comparing the three.OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects and mechanisms of human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma,monocytes,and mesenchymal stem cells in repairing thin endometrium in rats.METHODS:Sixty female SPF grade SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group,model group,human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group,human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group,and human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group,with 12 rats in each group.The sham operation group received 0.5 mL physiological saline injection into the uterine horn,followed by 0.5 mL of PBS infusion after 5 minutes;The model group,human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group,human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group,and human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group were injected with 0.5 mL of 95％ethanol by volume.After 5 minutes,the remaining ethanol was aspirated and washed twice with physiological saline.Then,0.5 mL of PBS,human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma,human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells(1×107 cells/mL),and human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cells(1×107 cells/mL)were perfused separately.During the third normal estrus cycle after reperfusion,organs,tissues and serum were collected for testing of relevant indicators.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The macroscopic view of uterine tissue,hematoxylin eosin staining and Masson staining results:the sham operation group had intact structure,moderate endometrial thickness,and clear vascular structure.Compared with the sham operation group,the model group showed uterine atrophy,incomplete structure,significantly reduced endometrial thickness and glandular quantity,disordered vascular structure,and increased fibrosis.Compared with the model group,after treatment with human umbilical cord blood derivatives,the size,structure,and endometrial thickness of the uterus were restored(all P＜0.01),and fibrosis was reduced,with the most significant recovery observed in the human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group.The increase in glandular quantity was most significant in the human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group(P＜0.000 1).(2)The immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence results of uterine tissue showed that compared with the sham operation group,the expression levels of cell proliferation related indicators such as keratin 9 and vimentin,endometrial receptivity related indicators such as leukemia inhibitory factor and integrin αyβ3,platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule,basic fibroblast growth factor,and vascular endothelial growth factor were all reduced in the model group(all P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the above indicators were significantly increased after treatment with human umbilical cord blood derivatives.Comparison of human umbilical cord blood derivatives among groups showed that keratin 9 and vascular endothelial growth factor protein:human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group＞human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group＞human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group;Wave shaped protein and leukemia inhibitory factor protein:human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group＞human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group＞human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group;Integrin αyβ3 protein:human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group＞human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group＞human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group;Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule protein:human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group＞human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group＞human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group;Basic fibroblast growth factor protein:human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group＞human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group＞human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group.(3)Western blot analysis showed that compared with the sham operation group,the protein levels of interleukin-6,interleukin-1β,and tumor necrosis factor alpha in the model group were significantly increased(all P＜0.001),and their expression levels decreased after treatment(all P＜0.05).(4)ELISA assay showed that compared with the sham operation group,the model group had lower levels of anti Mullerian hormone,estradiol,and progesterone,and increased levels of follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone(except for luteinizing hormone,all P＜0.05).After treatment,there was a certain degree of recovery in the levels of sex hormones and anti Mullerian hormones.(5)Fertility experiments showed that compared with the sham operation group,the model group had an increase in conception time and a significant decrease in litter size(all P＜0.05).After treatment with human umbilical cord blood derivatives,the litter size of all three groups increased(P＜0.05),and no significant differences were found between the groups.This study preliminarily reveals that human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells have a certain therapeutic effect on thin endometrium,and human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma,human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells,and human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cells have different advantages and differences in improving endometrial regeneration function,endometrial receptivity,angiogenesis,inflammation regulation,and improving pregnancy outcomes in thin endometrium.

BACKGROUND:Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a secondary causative factor for osteoporosis.As highly heterogeneous innate immune cells,macrophages may be polarized in a hyperglycemic environment,which affects osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling.This may be a research target for improving bone quality in patients with type 2 diabetic osteoporosis.OBJECTIVE:To explore the role of modulating macrophage M1/M2 polarization to influence osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling in type 2 diabetic osteoporosis and to summarize the effects of commonly used anti-glucose and anti-osteoporosis drugs and bone biorepair materials on bone osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling by regulating macrophage M1/M2 polarization.METHODS:The keywords of"macrophage polarization,type 2 diabetes,osteoporosis,osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling"in Chinese and"macrophages,macrophage polarization,osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling"in English were used to search for relevant literature in CNKI and PubMed,respectively.Seventy-nine pieces of literature were screened and analyzed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Type 2 diabetes mellitus causes the body to be in a hyperglycemic environment and increases the secretion of inflammatory-related factors in the body,which promotes macrophage polarization towards M1 and decreases the number of M2 macrophages.(2)In type 2 diabetes,promoting M2 macrophage polarization is beneficial for osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling.(3)Some anti-glycemic drugs,active ingredients in traditional Chinese medicine and bone biorepair materials can improve type 2 diabetic osteoporosis by regulating macrophage M1/M2 polarization,reducing M1/M2 ratio,and promoting osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling.

BACKGROUND:The exact pathogenesis of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis is currently unclear.Traditional clinical treatment strategies for temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis are symptomatic treatments such as pain relief and reduction of inflammation,which can stop the progression of the disease to a certain degree but cannot reverse the destruction of the cartilage.Cartilage degeneration,as one of the most prominent pathologic features in the development of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis,has been the subject of an increasing number of studies that focus on its pathogenesis.Consequently,we hope to provide an ideal radical solution for the regeneration of the temporomandibular joint.OBJECTIVE:To review the progress of research on cartilage degeneration in temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis.METHODS:The search terms were"temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis,degradation of cartilage matrix,synovitis,oxidative stress,chondrocyte hypertrophy,chondrocyte apoptosis,ferroptosis,autophagy,angiogenesis,extracellular vesicles"in Chinese and English.Literature search was conducted in PubMed database and CNKI,and the time limit for the search was from January 2004 to October 2024.Screening was performed by analyzing and reading the literature,and according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,81 papers were finally included for review.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Increased secretion of cartilage matrix degrading enzymes causes degradation of the cartilage matrix,leading to cartilage degeneration.(2)Synovitis promotes cartilage degeneration through macrophage M1-type polarization and production of inflammatory mediators.(3)Oxidative stress promotes cartilage degeneration by exacerbating the inflammatory response through overproduction of reactive oxygen species.(4)Chondrocyte phenotypic changes and death lead to the decrease of cartilage matrix synthesis,resulting in cartilage degeneration.(5)Blood vessels of subchondral bone penetrate the calcified cartilage layer to reach the superficial cartilage layer,which destroys the cartilage structure and leads to cartilage degeneration.(6)Bioactive substances carried by serum-derived extracellular vesicles in inflammatory states also promote cartilage degeneration in temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis.

BACKGROUND:Pure titanium and titanium alloy implants are widely used in the field of implant restoration due to their excellent biocompatibility and elastic modulus.However,the biological inertness of the surface of titanium-based implants leads to poor integration with surrounding bone tissues,and surface modification is required to improve the bone integration ability of titanium-based implants.OBJECTIVE:To fabricate hydroxyapatite/graphene oxide/interleukin-4 composite coatings on pure titanium substrates,and to investigate their physicochemical properties and biocompatibility of the coating materials.METHODS:Hydroxyapatite/graphene oxide/interleukin-4 composite coatings were prepared on pure titanium substrates by electrochemical deposition and freeze-drying.Titanium sheets loaded with interleukin-4 and titanium sheets loaded with hydroxyapatite/graphene oxide coatings were prepared at the same time,and the physicochemical properties of pure titanium sheets and the above three titanium sheets were characterized.MC3T3-E1 cells were inoculated on the surfaces of pure titanium sheets and the above three titanium sheets,respectively.Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 assay and DAPI staining.Cell activity was detected by Calcein-AM/PI staining.Cell morphology and adhesion were observed by scanning electron microscopy.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Scanning electron microscopy,energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,X-ray diffraction,and Raman spectroscopy confirmed the successful fabrication of the hydroxyapatite/graphene oxide/interleukin-4 composite coating on the titanium surface.The water contact angle of hydroxyapatite/graphene oxide/interleukin-4 group was larger than that of pure titanium group and hydroxyapatite/graphene oxide group,and smaller than that of interleukin-4 group.(2)CCK-8 assay and DAPI staining results showed that hydroxyapatite/graphene oxide/interleukin-4 coating could promote the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells.Calcein-AM/PI staining results showed that MC3T3-E1 cells in hydroxyapatite/graphene oxide/interleukin-4 coating group had higher activity and fewer dead cells.Scanning electron microscopy showed that MC3T3-E1 cells adhered to the surfaces of the four groups of materials with good cell morphology.Compared with the pure titanium group,the MC3T3-E1 cells in the interleukin-4 group extended more pseudopodia,the cell-cell connections were closer,and the adhesion area was larger;compared with the hydroxyapatite/graphene oxide group,the MC3T3-E1 cells in the hydroxyapatite/graphene oxide/interleukin-4 group extended more pseudopodia,the cell-cell connections were closer,and the adhesion area was larger.(3)These findings indicate that the hydroxyapatite/graphene oxide/interleukin-4 composite coating possesses favorable physicochemical and biological properties.

BACKGROUND:Macrophages play a key role in the occurrence and progression of lung diseases,and autophagy plays an important role in maintaining environmental homeostasis and functional stability in macrophages.It has been suggested that macrophage autophagic activity has two sides in lung inflammatory diseases.OBJECTIVE:To summarize the relationship between macrophage autophagy and lung diseases,thereby providing reference for exploring the prevention and treatment strategies of lung inflammatory diseases by targeting macrophage autophagy.METHODS:Literature retrieval was performed in CNKI and PubMed for relevant literature published from database inception to September 2024.The search terms were"macrophage autophagy,efferocytosis,macrophage polarization,acute lung injury,pneumonia,chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,pulmonary fibrosis,asthma"in Chinese and English,respectively.The search results were included or excluded based on the selection criteria,and 100 papers that met the criteria were finally included in the review.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The obstruction of autophagy flow will induce the polarization imbalance of macrophages and impair their efferocytosis,resulting in the increase of M1 macrophages and aggravating inflammation.(2)The judgment of autophagic activity should be based on whether the autophagy flow is smooth or not,and it is essential to evaluate the degradation ability of autophagy.Some studies failed to comprehensively detect the degradation ability of autophagy lysosomes to assess whether the autophagy flow is unobtrusive.As a result,the so-called two-sided view of pulmonary macrophage autophagy in pulmonary inflammatory diseases in such studies is actually related to the one-sided judgment of autophagy activity.(3)The pathological manifestations vary across different pulmonary diseases and even at different stages of the same disease.Activation of macrophage autophagy plays a positive role in regulating pulmonary inflammatory homeostasis in conditions such as acute lung injury,infectious pneumonia,mild chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,early-stage pulmonary fibrosis,and secondary asthma.However,in the severe fibrotic stage of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and the progressive stage of pulmonary fibrosis,the activation of pulmonary macrophage autophagy aggravates pulmonary fibrosis,reflecting the dual nature of macrophage autophagy.In allergic asthma,autophagy is activated in lung-resident macrophages but suppressed in infiltrating monocyte-derived macrophages from circulation.The former is closely related to airway stenosis,and the latter aggravates pneumonia disorders.Therefore,identifying the types and progression stages of lung diseases,along with accurately assessing autophagic activity,is crucial for future investigations into the relationship between macrophage autophagy and disease pathogenesis,thereby facilitating the development of therapeutic strategies in the future.

BACKGROUND:Lumbar degenerative disease is a disease of the musculoskeletal system that primarily affects the intervertebral structures,and the disease is treated with lumbar fusion and disc replacement.OBJECTIVE:To conduct comparative analysis of the differences between lumbar fusion,mechanical lumbar disc prosthesis replacement,and viscoelastic lumbar disc prosthesis replacement.METHODS:The computerized tomography images of a healthy adult were used to construct a finite element model of the L2-L5 normal lumbar spine with Mimic,Geomagic,and Ansys software.The equipment required for lumbar fusion and lumbar spine replacement was constructed using modeling software,and the L3-L4 segment of the lumbar spine was processed according to the surgical requirements for lumbar fusion and intervertebral disc replacement,creating the corresponding finite element model.Specific boundary conditions were applied to extract the mobility of each lumbar spine segment,the stresses on the neighboring intervertebral discs,and the stresses on the prosthesis lining.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the preoperative period,the maximum stress in the upper neighboring discs increased by 64.09％and 39.79％in the forward flexion and lateral bending states if the original mobility was maintained after lumbar fusion surgery.The maximum stress in the lower neighboring discs increased by 24.39％and 20.98％in forward flexion and lateral bending.This suggested that the upper adjacent discs would suffer greater stress changes than the lower adjacent discs during heavy physical labor.(2)Disc replacement did not show significant changes in adjacent disc stress,with mechanical prosthesis replacement slightly reducing adjacent disc stress,while viscoelastic prosthesis replacement was more in line with the biological properties of the disc,with maximum adjacent disc stress similar to that of the preoperative period.(3)In terms of stability,the mechanical prosthesis replacement segment showed a 51.67％increase in range of motion in the lateral bending state and a 53.27％increase in range of motion in the posterior extension state,whereas the viscoelastic prosthesis was better able to maintain mobility in the replacement segment.(4)In addition,the stresses in the liner of the mechanical prosthesis were mainly concentrated in the edge region,and this stress distribution may lead to edge wear and thus affect the service life of the prosthesis.

BACKGROUND:Pediatric flexible flatfoot is a common foot deformity that often leads to foot pain and reduced quality of life.OBJECTIVE:To explore the relationship between radiographic parameters and clinical efficacy of subtalar arthroereisis in the treatment of pediatric flexible flatfoot.METHODS:A retrospective study was conducted on 56 pediatric patients(mean age of 11.8 years)who underwent subtalar arthroereisis at Guangzhou Orthopedic Hospital between January 2022 and May 2023.All patients underwent detailed radiographic examinations and clinical evaluations before and after surgery,including the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot score and Visual Analog Scale score.Paired t-tests and independent t-tests were used to compare changes in radiographic parameters and clinical scores before and after surgery.Correlation analyses were conducted to evaluate the relationship between radiographic parameters and clinical outcomes.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)All radiographic parameters significantly improved during the 8 to 12-month follow-up after surgery(P＜0.001).(2)Clinical evaluation results indicated that the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot score significantly improved from 66.2±6.0 preoperatively to 91.3±5.8 postoperatively,and the Visual Analog Scale score significantly decreased from 3.1±0.8 preoperatively to 1.3±0.8 postoperatively(P＜0.001).(3)Independent t-tests showed a significant difference in postoperative the first metatarsal angle and Visual Analog Scale score grades(P=0.043),with a smaller the first metatarsal angle associated with less postoperative pain;preoperative lateral arch angle showed a significant difference between the"excellent"and"good"groups in postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot scores(P=0.033),suggesting that a smaller preoperative posterior arch angle might predict better postoperative foot function recovery.(4)Correlation analysis showed that preoperative posterior arch angle(r=-0.486,P＜0.01)and heel pitch angle(r=-0.344,P＜0.01)were significantly negatively correlated with postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot,while preoperative medial longitudinal arch angle(r=0.293,P＜0.05)was significantly positively correlated with postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot.Postoperative medial longitudinal arch angle(r=0.331,P＜0.05)and lateral arch angle(r=0.387,P＜0.01)were significantly positively correlated with postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot,whereas postoperative Bohler's angle(r=-0.272,P＜0.05),posterior arch angle(r=-0.461,P＜0.01),and heel pitch angle(r=-0.318,P＜0.01)were significantly negatively correlated with postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot.(5)It is concluded that subtalar arthroereisis is significantly effective in correcting pediatric flexible flatfoot,and improvements in radiographic parameters are closely related to clinical efficacy.Preoperative and postoperative radiographic evaluations can serve as important reference indicators for predicting postoperative clinical outcomes,guiding clinicians to optimize treatment plansand rehabilitation programs.

BACKGROUND:Intra-articular injection therapy is a relatively safe and effective treatment that can effectively relieve clinical signs and symptoms of patients with osteoarthritis of the temporomandibular joint.OBJECTIVE:To summarize new developments in the types of intra-articular injectable drugs and multiple combined treatment options for patients with osteoarthritis of the temporomandibular joint.METHODS:We searched relevant articles included in CNKI and PubMed databases with the keywords of"temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis,steroid hormone,nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs,hyaluronic acid,ozone,chitosan,platelet-rich plasma,stem cell,exosome,intra-articular injection,arthrocentesis,drug therapy,therapy"in Chinese and English,respectively.A total of 67 articles were finally included for review.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The application of intra-articular injection therapy in osteoarthritis of the temporomandibular joint is promising.There is a wide range of injectable drugs,including glucocorticoids,hyaluronic acid,chitosan,and platelet-rich plasma.Although the results of the existing studies show good efficacy,large-scale randomized controlled trials are still needed to further verify its safety and efficacy.(2)Different combinations of drugs injected into the joint cavity have shown better efficacy in osteoarthritis of the temporomandibular joint,and future studies should focus on the optimal combinations of different drugs as well as combinations of drugs with other therapeutic options,to provide a more effective treatment option for patients with osteoarthritis of the temporomandibular joint.
