Objective:To investigate the surgical method of preoperative computed tomography angiography(CTA) combined with color Doppler ultrasonography(CDU) vascular localization assisted by downstream vascularized medial femoral condylar bone flap and its clinical effect in the treatment of refractory scaphoid fracture nonunion.Methods:Retrospective analysis of case data from January 2018 to June 2022 in the Department of Orthopedics at Xingtai General Hospital of North China Medical and Health Group, using a free medial femoral condylar bone flap with descending knee artery as the blood supply to repair old fractures of the scaphoid bone with bone damage. Prior to surgery, CTA combined with CDU technology was used to locate the descending knee artery, and the medial femoral condylar bone flap was designed based on the localization result and bone defects. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient and telephone method. The degree of wrist pain was evaluated using the visual analogue scale (VAS), wrist function was evaluated using the improved Mayo scoring method, the degree of scaphoid arch back deformity was evaluated based on the angle of the scaphoid bone, and stability between the carpal bones was evaluated based on the angle of the scaphoid moon. The normal distribution metric data was represented as Mean±SD, and paired sample t-tests were used to compare the preoperative CDU measurement and the actual intraoperative measurement of the vessel diameter at the origin of the descending knee artery, as well as the distance to the inferior edge of the medial femoral condyle. The VAS score for pain before and after surgery, the Mayo score for wrist function, wrist grip strength, range of motion, scaphoid angle, and scaphoid angle are also compared. Results:A total of 12 patients were enrolled, including 9 males and 3 females; age ranged from 23 to 56 years old, with an average of 36 years old. There were 7 cases of right side fractures, 5 cases of left side fractures, 8 cases of scaphoid waist fractures, and 4 cases of proximal pole fractures. There was no difference between the preoperative CDU location and the actual vessel diameter at the origin of the descending geniculate artery [(1.7±0.5) mm vs. (1.8±0.7) mm] and the distance to the inferior border of the medial femoral condyle [(11.9±2.1) cm vs. (12.1±1.9) cm]( P>0.05). All patients were followed up after the operation, the specific time ranged from 6 months to 2 years, with an average of 13 months. The X-ray films showed that the scaphoid bone healed in all patients after operation, and the average healing time was 15 weeks. After 6 months of follow-up, the VAS scores (3.7±0.9 vs. 0.5±0.1), Mayo scores (46.1±3.8 vs. 86.2±6.1), scapholunar angle [(65.3±4.1)° vs. (47.9±3.5)°], scaphoid angle [(37.1±3.9)° vs. (22.8±2.3)°], wrist flexion and extension range of motion [(79.0±11.7)° vs. (118.5±15.8)°], grip strength [(6.7±4.6) kg vs. (26.1±5.3) kg]were compared before and after surgery, the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusion:The free medial femoral condyle bone flap with a vascular pedicle is one of the ideal method to repair the old navicular fracture with osteonecrosis. The preoperative vascular positioning technique effectively guides the design and cutting of the bone flap and ensures fast and accurate operation during the operation.

MiRNAs are a class of small non-coding RNAs,which regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally by partial complementary base pairing.Aberrant miRNA expressions have been reported in tumor tissues and peripheral blood of cancer patients.In recent years,artificial intelligence algorithms such as machine learning and deep learning have been widely used in bioinformatic research.Compared to traditional bioinformatic tools,miRNA target prediction tools based on artificial intelligence algorithms have higher accuracy,and can successfully predict subcellular localization and redistribution of miRNAs to deepen our understanding.Additionally,the construction of clinical models based on artificial intelligence algorithms could significantly improve the mining efficiency of miRNA used as biomarkers.In this article,we summarize recent development of bioinformatic miRNA tools based on artificial intelligence algorithms,focusing on the potential of machine learning and deep learning in cancer-related miRNA research.

The S100 protein family is a key component of damage-associated molecular patterns(DAMP), which play a vital role in regulating inflammation in the body's innate immune response. S100A8/S100A9 proteins play a wide range of antibacterial and anti-infective functions in many diseases, and promote the occurrence and development of the body's immune and inflammatory responses. In various retinal degenerative diseases, S100A8/S100A9 proteins are significantly upregulated at the transcription and translation stages, promoting the activation of inflammatory factors in ocular tissues, the activation and recruitment of immune cells such as macrophages and neutrophils, and the occurrence and development of ocular inflammation. This review aimsat explaining the biological functions of S100A8/S100A9 proteins and their roles and possible mechanisms in retinal degenerative diseases such as diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration and ischemic retinopathy.

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 analyze the effectiveness of indocyanine green angiography in monitoring blood perfusion of free perforator flap during repair surgery of limb soft tissue defect.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 26 patients who underwent free perforator flap repair of soft tissue defects in the limbs in Xingtai General Hospital of North China Medical and Health Group from August 2019 to October 2022. The patients included 21 males and 5 females, aged 20-59 years [(39.5±4.1)years]. The wound size ranged from 2.0 cm×5.0 cm to 12.0 cm×16.0 cm. The time from injury to surgery was 5-30 days [(16.2±1.9)days]. During the surgery, indocyanine green angiography was used to evaluate the blood perfusion in the flap area after the free perforator flap was completely cut but before the vascular pedicle was not cut off, and immediately after the free perforator flap was anastomosed with the recipient area′s blood vessels and sutured with surrounding tissues. Consistency testing was performed on the degree of blood perfusion of the skin flap displayed by two indocyanine green angiography tests to determine whether the anastomosis of the skin flap was unobstructed after transplantation. On 14 days after surgery, the second indocyanine green angiography technique was applied to measure the survival of flaps in patients with sufficient blood perfusion. The difference between the poor blood perfusion in the flap arearevealed by indocyanine green angiography technique and the actual necrosis occurrence in this part was compared. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value of indocyanine green angiography were calculated for evaluating blood perfusion in the flap area.Results:All the patients were followed up for 14-21 days [(17.4±3.5)days]. Two indocyanine green angiography tests showed strong consistency in blood perfusion in the flap area, with no statistically significant difference (Kappa coefficients of 1.00, P<0.01). All the patients had unobstructed anastomosis after flap transplantation. On 14 days after surgery, the second indocyanine green angiography test showed all skin flap areas as grade 1 in 11 patients, with the worst developed areas as grade 2 in 7 patients, grade 3 in 5, and grade 4 in 3. All the flaps survived in the 18 patients with flaps showing grade 1 development and the worst part showing grade 2 development; among the 8 patients with the worst developed areas being grade 3 and grade 4, 5 patients were found with skin flap necrosis (full thickness or superficial) in the areas with poor blood supply, and the skin flap survived well in 3 patients. Indocyanine green angiography in evaluating blood perfusion in the flap area showed the sensitivity of 100% (95% CI 0.46, 1.00), the specificity of 85.71% (95% CI 0.63, 0.96), the accuracy of 88.46% (95% CI 0.76, 1.00), the negative predictive value of 100% (95% CI 0.78, 1.00), and the positive predictive value of 62.50% (95% CI 0.26, 0.90). Conclusion:Indocyanine green angiography has good real-time imaging effect, with high sensitivity, specificity and accuracy, making it an objective method for monitoring the blood flow status of skin flaps and predicting skin flap necrosis.
