Objective:To investigate the diagnostic efficacy between magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)and ultrasound for training injury of medial head of gastrocnemius muscle.Methods:Clinical data of 70 cases with lower limb training injury suspected to be in the medial head of gastrocnemius muscle from Jan 2013 to Jan 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were examined by ultrasound and MRI,and their sensitivity,specificity and accuracy according to the final clinical diagnosis was compared.Results:Of the 70 cases of training injury,48 cases were finally diagnosed as medial head injury of gastrocnemius muscle,and 22 cases had no gastrocnemius injury.And there were 19 cases of gastrocnemius tissue injury,28 cases of myofascial injury edema and tissue interstitial effusion,26 cases of tendon and tendon sheath injury,and 6 cases of tendon insertion enthesiopathy.The sensitivity of ultrasound and MRI in the diagnosis of training injury of medial head of gastrocnemius muscle were 85.4%(41/48),97.9%(47/48)and the accuracy was 84.3%(59/70),95.7%(67/70),respectively.The diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity of MRI were higher than those of ultrasound(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in specificity between the two methods(P＞0.05).Conclusion:MRI has higher accuracy and sensitivity compared with ultrasound in the diagnosis training injury of medial head of gastrocnemius muscle,which has important diagnostic value.

Objective To summarize our experience and the early and midterm outcomes of stented elephant trunk procedure for right-sided aortic arch (RAA) with Kommerell's diverticulum (KD). Methods From April 2013 to July 2020, patients with RAA and KD who underwent stented elephant trunk procedure at our center were collected. Surgery was performed under moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest combined with selective antegrade cerebral perfusion via median sternotomy. Results A total of 8 patients were included, including 7 males and 1 female with a mean age of 51.88±9.61 years. All patients had an aneurysmal KD and aberrant left subclavian artery. Preoperative comorbidities included acute Stanford type B aortic dissection in 1 patient, aortic arch pseudoaneurysm in 1 patient, acute type B intramural hematoma in 2 patients, and coronary artery disease in 1 patient. Concomitant procedures included reconstruction of the left subclavian artery in all patients and coronary artery bypass grafting in 1 patient. The mean time of operation, cardiopulmonary bypass, aortic cross-clamping, and selective cerebral perfusion was 6.25±1.16 h, 157.75±40.07 min, 77.75±33.10 min, and 28.50±5.55 min, respectively. No intraoperative death occurred. There was 1 in-hospital death. Follow-up was completed in all patients with a mean period of 3.58±2.08 years. No late death occurred. A persistent anastomotic leak of the proximal arch was detected in 1 patient, but reintervention was not performed because neither aortic dilatation nor symptoms of tracheal and esophageal compression were observed during the follow-up. The remaining 6 patients showed positive aortic remodeling with complete thrombosis of the aneurysmal KD, and neither aortic event nor tracheal and esophageal compression occurred. Conclusion Stented elephant trunk procedure is a safe and feasible technique for selected patients with RAA and KD, which can achieve favorable early and midterm outcomes.

Aim To evaluate the effect of hyperoside/chitosan-nanoparticles(Hyp-NPs)on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)in vitro cell experi-ments and the underlying mechanism,and to conduct in vivo animal experiments to investigate the synergistic effect of Hyp-NPs and BMSCs on repairing endometrial damage in rats.Methods BMSCs were identified by flow cytometry.Hyp-NPs were prepared by ion crosslinking method,characterized and evaluated by laser particle size analyzer and transmission electron microscopy.The effects of different concentrations of Hyp-NPs on the migration of BMSCs were evaluated by scratch assay and immunofluorescence.NRF2 lentivir-us vector was constructed to explore the mechanism of Hyp-NPs on BMSCs.In animal experiments,Hyp-NPs loaded with BMSCs were co-transplanted into the uter-ine cavity of a rat model of endometrial injury.HE,Masson,IHC,TUNEL,and ELISA experiments were used to systematically evaluate the repair effect and pregnancy function of the composite formulation on rat endometrial injury from multiple aspects and angles,including general pathology,fibrosis,receptivity,cell proliferation,angiogenesis,stem cell recruitment,and inflammation of the endometrium.Results BMSCs were successfully isolated and cultured.Hyp-NPs with high stability and small particle size were successfully prepared.Scratch experiments indicated that Hyp-NPs could promote the migration of BMSCs.By successfully constructing a lentiviral NRF2 vector and oxidative damage model for BMSCs,immunofluorescence experi-ments showed that Hyp-NPs could regulate the biologi-cal axis of BMSCs by activating NRF2.Animal experi-ments showed that the synergistic administration of Hyp-NPs and BMSCs could increase endometrial thick-ness and glandular quantity,promote stem cell homing through anti-fibrotic,anti-apoptotic,and anti-inflam-matory effects,and restore pregnancy function in rats with endometrial injury.Conclusion The synergistic administration of Hyp-NPs and BMSCs could repair en-dometrial injury.

Aim To investigate the effects of puerarin on the proliferation,migration,and apoptosis of glio-blastoma cells and the underlying mechanisms.Meth-ods Differentially expressed genes associated with gli-oma and mitochondrial disease were analyzed using the GEO database.Cytotoxicity was detected by CCK-8 as-say.Cell migration was detected by the scratch wound healing assay and Transwell assay.Cell proliferation was assessed by EdU assay.Apoptosis level was meas-ured by TUNEL assay.Mitochondrial membrane poten-tial was detected by Mito-Tracker assay.ATP contents were detected using the ATP kit.The protein expres-sion levels were detected by Western blot.Antitumor efficacy of puerarin was analyzed using subcutaneous xenograft.Results There were 178 genes co-related differentially expressed genes in glioma and mitochon-drial disease.Core genes of co-related differentially ex-pressed genes were screened by GO and KEGG enrich-ment analyses,and the interaction networks.Among them,ubiquitin C(UBC)level was highly expressed in tissues of glioma patients.Puerarin could bind to UBC and reduce UBC expression at the animal and cell levels.Puerarin treatment inhibited the growth of glio-ma and decreased cell proliferation,migration and pro-moted cell apoptosis signals.Meantime,puerarin treat-ment also reduced mitochondrial membrane potentials and ATP contents,and down-regulated the levels of UBC related proteins.Conclusion Puerarin inhibits the proliferation,migration and promotes apoptosis of glioma cells.The mechanism of induction of mitochon-drial dysfunction is involved.

ObjectiveTo construct a neural network-like tissue with the potential of synaptic formation in vitro by seeding human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neural precursor cells （hiPSC-NPCs） on decellularized optic nerve （DON）， so as to provide a promising approach for repair of nerve tissue injury. MethodsThrough directional induction and tissue engineering technology， human induced pluripotent stem cells （hiPSCs） and 3D DON scaffolds were combined to construct neural network-like tissues. Then the hiPSCs were directionally induced into human neural precursor cells （hNPCs） and neurons. Immunofluorescence staining was used to identify cell differentiation efficiency. 3D DON scaffolds were prepared. Morphology and cytocompatibility of scaffolds were identified by scanning electron microscopy and Tunnel staining. Induced hiPSC-NPCs were seeded on DON scaffolds. Immunofluorescence staining， scanning electron microscopy， transmission electron microscopy and patch clamp were used to observe the morphology and functional identification of constructed neural network tissues. Results①The results of immunofluorescence staining suggested that most of hiPSC-NPCs differentiated into neurons in vitro. We had successfully constructed a neural network dominated by neurons. ② The results of scanning electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry suggested that a neural network-like tissue with predominating excitatory neurons in vitro was successfully constructed. ③The results of immunohistochemical staining， transmission electron microscopy and patch clamp indicated that the neural network-like tissue had synaptic transmission function. ConclusionA neural network-like tissue mainly composed of excitatory neurons has been constructed by the combination of natural uniform-channel DON scaffold and hiPSC-NPCs， which has the function of synaptic transmission. This neural network plays a significant role in stem cell derived replacement therapy， and offers a promising prospect for repair of spinal cord injury （SCI） and other neural tissue injuries.
