OBJECTIVE To establish the HPLC fingerprint of Xintong granules and the quantitative analysis of multi- components by single-marker method （QAMS） to determine the contents of 7 components， so as to provide a scientific basis for their quality control. METHODS HPLC method was used to establish the fingerprints for 10 batches of Xintong granules （No. S1- S10）， and similarity evaluation， cluster analysis （CA） and partial least squares-discriminant analysis （PLS-DA） were performed. At the same time， the contents of seven components， including puerarin， daidzin， calycosin-7-O- β -D-glucoside， stilbene glycoside， naringin， icariin and tanshinone ⅡA， were determined by QAMS method， and were compared with the results of external standard method. RESULTS A total of 18 common peaks were marked and 7 peaks were identified in the HPLC fingerprints for 10 batches of Xintong granules， namely puerarin （peak 4）， daidzin （peak 7）， calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside （peak 9）， stilbene glycoside （peak 10）， naringin （peak 12）， icariin （peak 17）， and tanshinone ⅡA （peak 18）； the similarities among them were more than 0.990， and CA and PLS-DA results showed that S4-S5，S8-S10，S1-S3 and S6-S7 were clustered into three categories， respectively. Using naringin as the internal standard， the contents of puerarin， daidzin， calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside， stilbene glycoside， icariin and tanshinone ⅡA were determined to be 7.868 1-10.181 2， 1.709 2-2.374 1， 0.285 2-0.326 3， 1.024 1- 1.523 9， 0.140 2-0.290 4， and 0.077 1-0.219 4 mg/g， respectively， by the QAMS. These results showed no significant differences compared to those obtained by the external standard method. CONCLUSIONS Established HPLC fingerprint and QAMS method are convenient， stable and accurate， which can provide a basis for the quality evaluation of Xintong granules.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of modified Baduanjin exercise, as an rehabilitation exercise, on cardiopulmonary function, motor function and activities of daily living in patients with stroke. MethodsFrom January to September, 2023, 42 stroke patients in the Nanjing Qixia District Hospital were randomly divided into control group (n = 21) and experimental group (n = 21). The control group received routine rehabilitation, and the experimental group received modified Baduanjin exercise in addition, for four weeks. They were assessed with peak oxygen uptake (VO_2peak), anaerobic threshold (AT), peak oxygen pulse (VO_2peak/HR), forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV₁), peak expiratory flow (PEF), Fugl-Meyer Assessment-upper extremities (FMA-UE), Berg Balance Scale (BBS) and modified Barthel Index (MBI) before and after intervention. ResultsVO_2peak, AT, and the scores of FMA-UE, BBS and MBI improved in the control group after intervention (|t| > 2.256, |Z| > 2.936, P < 0.05); while VO_2peak, AT, VO_2peak/HR, FVC, FEV₁, PEF, and the scores of FMA-UE, BBS and MBI improved in the experimental group (|t| > 4.390, |Z| > 3.451, P < 0.001); and all the indexes were better in the experimental group than in the control group (|t| > 4.136，|Z| > 2.751，P < 0.01), except the scores of BBS and MBI. ConclusionModified Baduanjin exercise can improve the cardiopulmonary function and upper limb motor function for stroke patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of galvanic vestibular stimulation on stroke patients with lateropulsion. MethodsFrom February to October, 2023, 30 stroke patients with lateropulsion in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were divided into control group (n = 15) and experimental group (n = 15) randomly. The control group received routine rehabilitation and sham galvanic vestibular stimulation, and the experimental group received routine rehabilitation and true galvanic vestibular stimulation, for two weeks. They were assessed with Scale for Contraversive Pushing (SCP), subjective visual vertical (SVV), Line Cancellation Test (LCT), Star Cancellation Test (SCT), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Holden Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) and Barthel Index (BI) before and after treatment. ResultsAll the indexes improved in both groups after intervention (|t| > 2.461, Z > 3.000, P < 0.05), except the SVV orientation, SVV certainty and SCT in the control group; while the SCP, SVV certainty, LCT and FAC were better in the experimental group than in the control group (|t| > 2.189, Z = -2.862, P < 0.05), and the differences before and after intervention were better in the experimental group than in the control group (|t| > 2.382, P < 0.05), except LCT. SCP was correlated with SVV orientation, SVV certainty, SCT, BBS, BI and FAC (|r| > 0.381, P < 0.05). ConclusionGalvanic vestibular stimulation can improve the lateropulsion, balance, walking function and activities of daily living in stroke patients, which may be related to improvement for spatial cognitive function, especially vertical perception.

Objective To compare the clinical effects of arthroscopically-assisted reduction and internal fixation(ARIF)combined with enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)and open reduction and internal fixation surgery(ORIF)in the treatment of posterior lateral tibial plateau fractures.Methods Seventy patients with posterior lateral tibial plateau fractures in the Department of Orthopaedics,Xuzhou Central Hospital,from January 2020 to November 2022 were retrospectively selected and divided into ARIF group(with ERAS,n=32)and ORIF group(without ERAS,n=38)according to the treatment methods.All patients were evaluated for fracture type by imaging examination after admission.The operation time,length of hospital stay,early postoperative pain score(evaluated by visual analogue scale[VAS]),knee joint function(evaluated by hospital for special surgery[HSS]scale)at 3 months and thigh circumference difference at 6 months postoperatively were compared between the two groups.Results The operation time in the ARIF group was significantly shorter than that in the ORIF group([67.84±9.89]min vs[85.16±9.18]min,P＜0.001),and the length of hospital stay was significantly shorter in the ARIF group([7.13±1.41]d vs[8.74±1.84]d,P＜0.001).On the third day after operation,the VAS score in the ARIF group was significantly lower than that in the ORIF group([4.00±1.44]vs[5.39±1.24],P＜0.001).ARIF group had better joint function than ORIF group 3 months after operation,and the difference of 10 cm thigh circumference on patella in ARIF group was smaller than that in ORIF group 6 months after operation.Conclusions Compared to ORIF,patients with posterior lateral tibial plateau fractures treated with ARIF combined with ERAS showed faster postoperative recovery,shorter hospital stay,and more precise clinical efficacy.

Objective To observe the safety and feasibility of gelatin sponge-prothrombin-iohexol for blocking needle path of CT-guided percutaneous liver biopsy.Methods Totally 101 patients who underwent CT-guided needle biopsy of liver due to unexplained liver diseases,cirrhosis or space-occupying lesions of liver with coagulation dysfunction were retrospectively analyzed.After biopsy,the puncture needle path was blocked with gelatin sponge-prothrombin-iohexol.The effect and complications of puncture,also patients'coagulation and liver function indicators before and after puncture were observed.Results Successful puncture and sampling were performed in all 101 cases,with both technical success rate and adequacy of histological specimens of 100%.Accurate pathological diagnose was acquired in all 101 cases.Complications including mild pain at the puncture site,penetration of the blocking agent into the liver capsule or subcutaneous tissue were observed in a total of 18 cases(18/101,17.82%),while no severe complication such as bleeding,pneumothorax or bile duct injury occurred.No significant difference of coagulation nor liver function indicators was found before and after CT-guided needle biopsy(all P＞0.05).Conclusion Gelatin sponge-prothrombin-iohexol were safe and reliable for blocking needle path of percutaneous liver biopsy,which could reduce complications such as bleeding.

Foodborne pathogens make much difference to food safety,and troops are also at risk of infection during military operations and daily lives,so there is an urgent need for highly sensitive and rapid detection technologies.In recent years,with the continuous development of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats(CRISPR)technology,the CRISPR-Cas system with trans-cutting activity has received increasing attention.This paper outlines the basic principles of CRISPR-Cas12a-based detection technology and conventional signal readout technologies.It also analyzes the current status and developmentsof CRISPR-Cas12a in detecting foodborne pathogenic bacteria.The challenges to and prospects of this technology are also described.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.

Objective:To explore the advantages of minimally invasive internal fixation assisted by an orthopedic robot in the treatment of tibial plateau fractures of Schatzker types Ⅱ and Ⅲ that can be indirectly reduced.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted of the 18 patients who had been treated for tibial plateau fractures of Schatzker types Ⅱ and Ⅲ at Department of Orthopaedics, The Fourth Hospital of Wuhan from December 2019 to December 2021. They were 12 males and 6 females with an age of (45.2±9.6) years. All fractures were closed. Of them, 6 were complicated with an avulsion fracture at the insertion point of the anterior cruciate ligament, 1 with tear of the medial collateral ligament, and 8 with tear of the lateral meniscus. All patients were treated with minimally invasive internal fixation using the "fence" screw technique after indirect reduction assisted by an orthopedic surgical robot. Those combined with avulsion fracture of the anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus tear underwent one-stage arthroscopic surgery, while those combined with tear of the medial collateral ligament underwent one-stage open repair. The fracture reduction was evaluated according to the Rasmussen radiological scoring system, and the knee joint function evaluated using the American Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) scoring system.Results:All the 18 patients were fully followed up for (10.6±1.9) months. The X-ray films immediately after surgery showed good fracture reduction. The fractures healed after (11.3±1.2) weeks. At 6 months after surgery, the Rasmussen knee score was (16.8±1.0) points, giving 5 excellent and 13 good cases; the HSS score was (93.2±3.0) points, giving 17 excellent and 1 good cases. By the last follow-up, no serious complications occurred, such as common peroneal nerve injury, popliteal vascular injury, postoperative infection, or internal fixation failure.Conclusion:Since minimally invasive internal fixation assisted by an orthopedic robot can lead to fine clinical efficacy for tibial plateau fractures of Schatzker types Ⅱ and Ⅲ, this technique can be widely applied in clinical practice.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of different reconstruction points of intrauterine applicator on the source dwell positions and plan dosimetry in intracavitary brachytherapy for cervical cancer.Methods:Clinical data of 43 patients with cervical cancer who had completed radical radiotherapy in Liuzhou Workers' Hospital from May 2020 to October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Among 43 patients, aged 32-79 years, 40 cases were diagnosed with squamous carcinoma and 3 cases of adenocarcinoma. All patients received external irradiation for 50.4 Gy / 28 fractions and CT-guided intracavitary brachytherapy (45° intrauterine applicator) was 36 Gy / 6 fractions. Brachytherapy was performed by using Fletcher applicator, the curvature of intrauterine applicator were 15°, 30°and45°. Two sets of brachytherapy plans were simulated for each patient. One set of plans extracted the simulated CT positioning images and the original plan of the patient's brachytherapy. The reconstruction point of the curved part of the 45° intrauterine applicator was adjusted to slice-by-slice reconstruction. The plan was optimized to meet clinical requirements according to the prescription, which was called the slice-by-slice group. In the other set of plans, slice-by-slice group was used as a template. The reconstruction points of the curved section of the 45° intrauterine applicator were adjusted to 1, 3, 5, and 7, without modifying the applicator weights and other parameters, which was called the average group 1, 3, 5 and 7. The deviation analysis of 15°, 30° and 45° intrauterine applicator with different number of reconstruction points was carried out, the reconstruction deviation of 45°, 30° and 15° intrauterine applicator at different reconstruction points was compared. Paired-sample t-test or Wilcoxon signed rank test were used to compare the differences in high-risk clinical target volume (HR-CTV) D 50%, D 90%, D 100%, V 100%, V 150%, V 200% and conformity index (CI) as well as D 2 cm3, D 1 cm3 and D 0.1 cm3 in bladder, rectum, and small intestine between two groups of 45° intrauterine applicator. Results:The reconstruction deviation in the average group was mainly from the vertical direction of the 45° intrauterine applicator. The mean reconstruction deviations of 45° (1, 3, 5, 7 reconstruction points), 30° (1, 3, 5 reconstruction points) and 15° (1, 2 reconstruction points) were 1.30 mm, 0.32 mm, 0.14 mm and 0.08 mm; 0.57 mm, 0.14 mm and 0.06 mm; 0.14 mm and 0.06 mm, respectively. There was no significant difference in the parameters of high-risk clinical target volume (HR-CTV) in the slice-by-slice group compared with the average group 5 and 7 (all P>0.005), and no significant difference was found between the average group 5 and 7 (all P>0.005). There were no statistically significant differences in bladder and rectum doses between the slice-by-slice group and the average groups or within the average groups (all P>0.005). The parameters of small intestine in the slice-by-slice group were higher than those of the average group 1, the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.002,<0.001,<0.001). The dose of small intestine in the slice-by-slice group was not statistically significant compared with those in the average group 5 and 7 (both P>0.005). The dose of small intestine in the average group 5 was not statistically significant compared with that in the average group 7 ( P>0.005). The small intestine dose deviations of D 0.1 cm3, D 1 cm3 and D 2 cm3 in the average groups at 1 reconstruction point were 2.41%±1.70%, 1.95%±1.27% and 1.71%±1.10%, respectively. Conclusion:The number of reconstruction points is recommended to be no less than 1, 3 and 5 of the curved part of the 15°, 30°and 45° Fletcher intrauterine applicator, respectively, during intracavitary brachytherapy for cervical cancer.

Chronic refractory wound (CRW) is one of the most challengeable issues in clinic due to complex pathogenesis, long course of disease and poor prognosis. Experts need to conduct systematic summary for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW due to complex pathogenesis and poor prognosis, and standard guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW should be created. The Guideline forthe diagnosis and treatment of chronic refractory wounds in orthopedic trauma patients ( version 2023) was created by the expert group organized by the Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Chinese Orthopedic Association, Chinese Society of Traumatology, and Trauma Orthopedics and Multiple Traumatology Group of Emergency Resuscitation Committee of Chinese Medical Doctor Association after the clinical problems were chosen based on demand-driven principles and principles of evidence-based medicine. The guideline systematically elaborated CRW from aspects of the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, postoperative management, complication prevention and comorbidity management, and rehabilitation and health education, and 9 recommendations were finally proposed to provide a reliable clinical reference for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW.
