Objective To explore dose-effect relationship of biomechanical parameters in treating atlantoaxial joint disor-der by slimming manipulation.Methods From October 2022 to May 2023,18 patients with atlantoaxial joint disorders were treated,including 10 males and 8 females;aged from 24 to 27 years old with an average of(25.50±l.10)years old;CT of cer-vical vertebra showed 16 patients with right side distortion and 2 patients with left side distortion.The mechanical parameters of treatment of atlantoaxial joint disorder by tendon relaxation manipulation were measured by wearing massage manipulation gloves.The magnitude,frequency and mechanical curve of force during tendon relaxation and starting force,pulling force,pulling time and mechanical curve during rehabilitation were quantified,the differences between the affected and contralateral manipulations were compared.Results The maximum force and frequency of Fengchi(GB20)on the affected side were(19.82±2.02)N and(116.83±14.49)times/min,and opposite side were(13.87±2.19)N and(188.89±16.03)times/min,re-spectively.There were statistically difference in the maximum force and frequency of both sides(P＜0.05).The maximum force and frequency of Quepen(ST12)on the affected side were(14.44±3.27)N and(139.06±28.47)times/min,and those on the opposite side were(9.41±1.38)N and(142.50±28.47)times/min.There was difference in maximum force on both sides(P＜0.05).The starting force,turning force and turning time of the affected side were(14.16±5.98)N,(11.56±6.63)N,(0.14±0.03)S,and the contralateral side were(8.94±3.39)N,(8.30±4.64)N,(0.18±0.04)S,respectively.The difference of starting force,turning force and turning time on both sides were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion By applying a light re-laxation force on the affected side,the mechanical balance between cervical vertebrae could be restored,and recovery trend of atlantoaxial joint disorder could be strengthened.On this basis,the atlantoaxial odontoid process could be reversed by applying a light rotation force,which reflects the characteristics of high safety of the manipulation.

Objective:To explore the levels of regulatory T cells(Tregs)and cytokines IL-35,TGF-β and IL-10 in peripheral blood of hemophilia A(HA)patients with F Ⅷ inhibitor and their clinical significance.Methods:43 HA patients admitted to the Hematology Department of the Affiliated Hospital of North China University of Science and Technology from October 2019 to December 2020 were selected,including 6 cases with F Ⅷ inhibitor and 37 cases without FⅧ inhibitor.In addition,20 healthy males who underwent physical examinations were selected as healthy controls.Flow cytometry was used to detect the levels of CD4+CD25+CD127-Tregs in peripheral blood of the HA patients and healthy controls,and ELISA assay was used to detect the expression levels of IL-35,TGF-β and IL-10 in serum,and their differences between different groups were compared.Results:Compared with the healthy control group,the level of Tregs in HA patients was decreased,and the level of Tregs in the FⅧ inhibitor positive group was the lowest,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the expression level of Tregs in HA patients of different severity levels.The serum IL-35,TGF-β,and IL-10 levels in both FⅧ inhibitor negative and positive groups were significantly lower than those in healthy control group,and those in FⅧ inhibitor positive group were significantly lower than those in FⅧ inhibitor negative group(all P＜0.05).Conclusion:The decrease of Tregs,IL-35,TGF-β,and IL-10 levels in HA patients may be related to the formation of FⅧ inhibitors.

AIM To study the effects of Liangxue Heying Formula on vascular inflammatory injury in a rat model of thromboangiitis obliterans(TAO).METHODS The rats were randomly divided into the sham operation group,the model group and the low,medium and high dose Liangxue Heying Formula groups(2.25,4.5,9 g/kg).With the rat TAO model successfully established by injection of 0.1 mL sodium laurate(10 mg/mL)into the femoral artery of hind limbs,corresponding doses of drugs by gavage were administered upon the rats.Subsequently,the rats had their morphological changes of the affected limbs observed and assessed;their changes of blood flow in hind limbs scanned by laser Doppler flowmetry;their plasma levels of TNF-α,IL-6,ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 detected by ELISA;their histopathological changes of femoral artery and vein observed by HE staining;and their protein expressions of TNF-α,IL-6,JAK2,p-JAK2,STAT3,p-STAT3,ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in femoral artery detected by Western blot.RESULTS Compared with the sham operation group,the model group displayed increased morphological score of the affected limb(P＜0.01);decreased blood perfusion ratio of the affected side/healthy side(P＜0.01);increased plasma levels of TNF-α,IL-6,ICAM-1 and VCAM-1(P＜0.01);more existence of thrombotic infiltration containing a larger number of inflammatory cells in femoral artery and femoral vein tissue,and increased protein expressions of TNF-α,IL-6,p-JAK2,p-STAT3,ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in femoral artery(P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,the medium and high dose Liangxue Heying Formula groups demonstrated decreased morphological score of the affected limb(P＜0.01);increased blood perfusion ratio of the affected side/healthy side(P＜0.01);reduced infiltration of thrombus and inflammatory cells in femoral artery and femoral vein tissue,and decreased protein expressions of IL-6 and p-STAT3 in femoral artery tissue(P＜0.01).All Liangxue Heying Formula groups shared decreased plasma levels of TNF-α,IL-6,ICAM-1 and VCAM-1(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);and reduced protein expressions of TNF-α,ICAM-1,VCAM-1 and p-JAK2 in femoral artery(P＜0.01).CONCLUSION Liangxue Heying Formula can improve the systemic inflammatory state of TAO rats by inhibiting the activation of endothelial cells and reducing vascular inflammatory injury possibly due to the mechanism associated with the regulation of the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Objective:To evaluate the short-term rehabilitation effect of wearable visual training devices based on extended reality (XR) glasses in patients after macular hole surgery.Methods:A self-controlled study was conducted.Eleven patients with monocular low vision after macular hole surgery were recruited at Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from October 2022 to March 2024.All patients underwent biofeedback training for 3 months using the independently developed visual rehabilitation training glasses LOOKBON T10.The LogMAR best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), retinal sensitivity, effective fixation rate, fixation stability, reading speed, vertical metamorphopsia (MV), horizontal metamorphopsia (MH), and Chinese version of the visual-related quality of life assessment form (CVRQoL-25) were compared before and after training.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University (No.WDRY2024-K263).Written informed consent was obtained from each subject.Results:After training, the patients' BCVA, retinal sensitivity, effective fixation rate, fixation stability, and reading speed were 0.69±0.19, (21.61±2.75)db, (92.43±4.06)%, (93.09±4.31)%, and (104.82±21.85) characters/minute, respectively, which were significantly improved compared to 0.85±0.28, (17.71±3.17)db, (31.83±19.05)%, (32.35±19.12)%, and (69.64±20.17) characters/minute before training ( t=5.253, -5.987, -11.561, -12.003, -11.682; all at P<0.001).After training, MV and MH were (0.29±0.20)° and (0.21±0.24)°, respectively, which were significantly reduced compared to pre-training (0.44±0.24)° and (0.43±0.41)° ( t=9.238, 4.068; both at P<0.01).After training, the CVRQoL-25 score was 1 193.18±229.43, which was significantly higher than pre-training 947.73±203.86 ( t=-11.687, P<0.001). Conclusions:The application of wearable visual training equipment based on XR glasses can effectively improve the visual function of patients with poor visual function recovery after macular hole surgery, and enhance their quality of life.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective To compare the clinical outcomes and retinal volume changes in patients with ischemic and non-ischemic macular edema secondary to branch retinal vein occlusion(BRVO-ME)using optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA).Methods The clinical data of 34 ischemic BRVO-ME patients(34 eyes,ischemic group)and 21 non-ischemic BRVO-ME patients(21 eyes,non-ischemic group)were retrospectively analyzed.Patients in both groups re-ceived intravitreal injections of ranibizumab.The best corrected visual acuity(BCVA)and retinal volume of the macular ar-ea were assessed before,1 day,1 week,1 month,3 months and 6 months after the treatment.Results The BCVA(log-MAR)at 1 day after the treatment was 0.63±0.37 in the ischemic group and 0.44±0.22 in the non-ischemic group,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.017).The retinal volumes of the outer retina,the full retina,and the Farafovea and Perifovea subdivisions of the full retina before the treatment were(6.42±1.90)mm3,(8.75±1.82)mm3,(3.20±0.87)mm3 and(5.10±0.89)mm3 in the ischemic group and(5.52±1.57)mm3,(7.83±1.56)mm3,(2.80± 0.71)mm3,and(4.66±0.77)mm3 in the non-ischemic group,respectively;1 day after treatment,they were(4.97± 1.18)mm3,(7.46±1.47)mm3,(2.62±0.60)mm3 and(4.53±0.80)mm3 in the ischemic group and(4.25±0.48)mm3,(6.58±0.56)mm3,(2.26±0.26)mm3 and(4.06±0.40)mm3 in the non-ischemic group,respectively;at 1 week after the treatment,they were(4.40±0.82)mm3,(6.90±0.85)mm3,(2.38±0.36)mm3 and(4.24±0.49)mm3 in the ischemic group and(4.04±0.35)mm3,(6.33±0.49)mm3,(2.15±0.19)mm3 and(3.95±0.35)mm3 in the non-ische-mic group,respectively,and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The a-mount of retinal volume change from baseline in the outer retina and the full retina was(-2.48±2.38)mm3 and(-2.54±2.38)mm3 in the ischemic group,and(-1.31±1.58)mm3 and(-1.38±1.58)mm3 in the non-ischemic group at 1 month after treatment,respectively,and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(both P＜0.05).Conclusion Ranibizumab is effective in treating both ischemic and non-ischemic BRVO-ME.The short-term visu-al prognosis is better in the non-ischemic group than the ischemic group,and the retinal volume is higher in the ischemic group than the non-ischemic group.However,no significant difference is observed in the visual prognosis or retinal volume between the two groups after long-term treatment.

ObjectiveThis study aims to explore risk factors for the development of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events （MACCEs） in middle-aged and elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated with stable angina pectoris （T2DM-SAP） based on real-world clinical data in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， so as to develop a COX proportional risk prediction model and visualize the predicted results using a nomogram. MethodBased on the clinical scientific research information sharing system， the medical records of 586 T2DM-SAP patients （45-94 years old） were collected from January 2012 to December 2019， including age， gender， course of disease， major medical history， laboratory examination， tongue image， pulse image， TCM syndrome， and major treatment drugs. MACCE outcome indicators of patients were obtained by telephone follow-up and re-hospitalization records. The data was divided into a training set and a validation set according to 7∶3. In the training set， COX univariate analysis was used to determine the risk factors for MACCE in T2DM-SAP patients， and then variables were screened by forward-backward stepwise regression method， so as to establish a MACCE risk prediction model and construct a nomogram. The predictive efficacy of the model was reflected by the C-index， receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve， calibration map， and clinical decision curve. ResultThe history of cerebrovascular disease ［Hazard ratio （HR）=1.983， 95% confidence interval （CI，1.314-2.993）］， low-density lipoprotein （LDL-C/mmol·L^-1）≥4.1［HR=2.683， 95%CI（1.461-4.925）］， dull red tongue ［HR=1.955， 95%CI（1.273-3.002）］， dull purple tongue ［HR=4.214， 95%CI（2.017-8.803）］， white thick coating ［HR=3.030， 95%CI（1.634-9.293）］， thin and weak pulse ［HR=2.233， 95%CI（1.283-3.888）］， and syndrome of wind-phlegm blocking collaterals ［HR=2.007， 95%CI（1.179-3.418）］ were found to be risk factors in middle-aged and elderly T2DM-SAP patients. Insulin ［HR=0.604， 95%CI（0.399-0.914）］， glycosidase inhibitor ［HR=0.627， 95%CI（0.409-0.962）］， and TCM treatment ［HR=0.328， 95%CI（0.214-0.503）］ were protective factors in middle-aged and elderly T2DM-SAP patients. The prediction model was constructed based on the above risk factors. The C-index of the model was 0.818 （95% CI 0.777 -0.859） in the training set and 0.814 （95% CI 0.773-0.855） in the validation set， and the change of C-index over time was plotted. The AUC of patients for 5， 10， 15 years in the training set was 0.71， 0.67， and 0.61. The AUC of patients for 5， 10， and 15 years in the validation set was 0.60， 0.68， and 0.63， respectively. The calibration map and clinical decision curves of 5， 10， 15 years were drawn in the training set and the validation set， respectively. The model was well calibrated and clinically effective. ConclusionThe history of cerebrovascular disease， LDL， dull red tongue， dull purple tongue， white thick coating， thin and weak pulse， and syndrome of wind-phlegm blocking collaterals are risk factors for MACCE in middle-aged and elderly T2DM-SAP patients， and insulin， glycosidase inhibitors， TCM treatment are protective factors for MACCE in middle-aged and elderly T2DM-SAP patients. A clinical prediction model is established accordingly. This model has good discrimination， calibration degree， and clinical effectiveness and provides a scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of MACCE in middle-aged and elderly T2DM-SAP patients.
