Anger is a negative emotion that can have many effects on the body.The brain regions associated with the production of anger are mainly related to the central gray matter,amygdala,and hypothalamus.There has recently been a gradual increase in research into relevant animal models and the mechanisms of anger.Most studies of anger models have focused on the mid-suture dorsal nucleus,hypothalamus,and hippocampal regions,and related neurotransmitter studies have mainly been related to GABA expression and monoamine neurotransmitter content.This review summarizes the neural mechanisms of anger in the brain based on animal models related to anger,with the aim of providing a reference for the study of angry emotions.

Objective:To compare the short-term efficacy between our self-designed intelligent robot-assisted minimally invasive reduction system and conventional freehand reduction assisted by fluoroscopy in the treatment of unstable pelvic fractures by robot or fluoroscopy-assisted internal fixation with percutaneous screws.Methods:A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted to include eligible 35 patients with unstable pelvic fracture who were admitted to Department of Orthopaedic Trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from December 2021 to October 2022. They were randomized into 2 groups. The observation group[17 cases, 10 males and 7 females with an age of (44.0±17.4) years] was treated with robot-assisted minimally invasive reduction, followed by robot-assisted or fluoroscopic internal fixation with percutaneous screws; the control group[18 cases, 12 males and 6 females with an age of (38.8±15.0) years] was treated with freehand reduction assisted by fluoroscopy, followed by robot-assisted or fluoroscopic internal fixation with percutaneous screws. The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, intraoperative bleeding, successful reduction, reduction quality, incidence of surgical complications and postoperative functional scores.Results:The 2 groups were comparable because there were no significant differences in the preoperative general data between them ( P>0.05). The intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency[(32.4±17.5) times] and fluoroscopy time [(19.8±10.4) s] in the observation group were significantly lower or shorter than those in the control group [(60.8±26.6) times and (38.2±16.1) s], and the rate of successful reduction in the observation group was 100.0% (17/17), significantly higher than that in the control group[72.2% (13/18)] ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in intraoperative bleeding, operation time, reduction error, excellent and good rate of reduction after operation by Matta scoring, or Majeed functional score at 12 weeks after operation ( P>0.05). Conclusion:In the treatment of unstable pelvic fractures, since our self-designed intelligent robot-assisted minimally invasive reduction system can plan autonomously the reduction paths and accomplish minimally invasive reduction of the fracture with 3D images real-time monitoring, it is advantageous over conventional reduction methods in a higher success rate and less radiation exposure.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness of postoperative radiotherapy using shrinking field for patients with extremity soft tissue sarcoma (STS), mainly focusing on the local control rate and adverse events.Methods:Clinical data of 49 extremity STS patients who received postoperative intensity-modulated radiotherapy in the First Hospital of Tsinghua University from October 2017 to March 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Target volumes were contoured on CT and MRI fusion images. The tumor bed was defined as GTV tb, with 3 cm expansion in the longitudinal direction and 1.5 cm expansion in the radial direction to construct CTV (the target volume should be properly repaired according to the anatomical barrier, and the edema area around the tumor should be included). GTV tb and CTV were expanded in all directions by 0.5 cm to construct PTV1 and PTV2 respectively, at a dose of 95%PTV1 63-66 Gy, 95%PTV2 50-56 Gy,1.8-2.0 Gy/f. The dose of surgical volume should be given at 70 Gy for patients who had a microscopic positive margin. Results:The median follow-up time was 32.1 months (7.9-45.6 months). The 3-year local failure-free survival (LFFS), overall survival (OS)and distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) were 91.7%,77.6% and 71.5%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that patients with a microscopic positive margin were more likely to develop local recurrence ( P<0.05). The incidence of grade 2 or above wound complications, joint stiffness, fracture, edema and skin fibrosis were 2%, 4.1%, 2%, 8.2% and 26.5%, respectively. Conclusion:Postoperative radiotherapy with shrinking field provides excellent local control rate and low incidence of late adverse events in patients with extremity STS.

Objective:To evaluate a self-designed intelligent robot-assisted minimally invasive reduction system in the reduction of unstable pelvic fractures by a cadaveric anatomic study.Methods:Ten unembalmed cadavers (7 male and 3 female ones) were used in this study. In each cadaveric specimen an unstable pelvic fracture was created in accordance with clinical case models (3 cases of type B1, 4 cases of type B2 and 3 cases of type C1 by the Tile classification). A self-designed intelligent robot-assisted minimally invasive reduction system was used to assist the reduction in the cadaveric models. Intraoperative registration and navigation time, autonomous reduction time, total operation time and reduction error were measured.Results:Effective reduction was completed in 10 bone models with the assistance of our self-designed intelligent robot-assisted minimally invasive reduction system. The time for intraoperative registration and navigation averaged 47.4 min (from 32 to 74 min), the autonomous reduction time 73.9 min (from 48 to 96 min), and the total operation time 121.3 min (from 83 to 170 min). The reduction error averaged 2.02 mm (from 1.67 to 2.62 mm), and the reduction results met the clinical requirements.Conclusion:Our self-designed intelligent robot-assisted minimally invasive reduction system is a new clinical solution for unstable pelvic fractures, showing advantages of agreement with clinical operative procedures, high reduction accuracy and operational feasibility, and reduced radiation exposure compared to a conventional operation.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein and carotid intima-media thickness.Methods:A total of 5 136 health examination subjects, aged ≥40 years old, who met the inclusion criteria and had complete data, were selected as the research objects.A unified questionnaire survey, blood biochemistry and carotid artery color doppler ultrasound examination were performed.According to the diagnostic criteria of hs-CRP published by American Heart Association (AHA), the subjects were divided into three groups: 0.05 mg/L0.84 mm group.The results showed that when the concentration of hs-CRP was high, CIMT increased with the increase of hs-CRP( OR(95% CI) 1.24 (1.01~1.52), P<0.05). Conclusion:There was a positive correlation between hs-CRP and CIMT.Patients with higher levels of hs-CRP are more likely to develop CIMT thickening and increase the risk of arteriosclerotic disease.

Percutaneous coronary intervention is an extremely effective method for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction.In some patients, allergic reactions to metals such as in-stent restenosis and coronary aneurysm dilatation will occur.Currently, treatment options for such patients remain controversial.Studies have shown that nickel is a common cause of recurrent in-stent restenosis.

Early diagnosis is the key to improve the prognosis of gastric cancer. How to screen out high-risk subjects of gastric cancer in population is a hot spot. Serum-based early detection of gastric cancer is suitable for high-risk population screening, which is more convenient and safer. This article reviews the diagnostic value of serum biomarkers for gastric cancer, including serum DNA methylation, various RNAs, pepsinogen, gastrin, osteopontin, MG7-Ag and CA724. Until now, there is still lack of ideal biomarkers for gastric cancer, and searching for specific RNAs may be promising for early diagnosis and screening of gastric cancer.
