BACKGROUND:The morphological indexes of ankle point may change after ankle fracture,and there is a certain correlation between the coronal angle change of ankle point and the functional recovery of ankle joint.Most previous studies have studied the height recovery of ankle point after surgery,so the correlation between the fluctuation of coronal angle of ankle point and the functional recovery of ankle joint after ankle fracture has certain reference significance. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of coronal angle change of ankle point on joint function recovery after ankle fracture. METHODS:A total of 86 patients with ankle fracture who underwent surgical treatment were selected as the study objects,and were divided into excellent group(n=45)and poor group(n=41)according to the results of American Orthopaedic Foot&Ankle Society(AOFAS)hindfoot-ankle score during the last follow-up,and the general data of the two groups were compared.The morphological indexes of ankle points on the affected side and healthy side were compared after surgery based on ankle acupoints and lateral X-rays of the ankle joint,including the width and depth of ankle points,coronal angle and sagittal angle,and the difference of ankle points between the affected side and healthy side,and further comparison and analysis were conducted in each group.A joint model was constructed and Cox regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between coronal angle fluctuation and joint function recovery.Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression method and multivariate Logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors affecting the recovery of joint function.The patients were divided into 5-quartile array(Q1-Q5)according to the angle of coronal position at ankle point from low to high.The clinical data characteristics of the five groups were compared,and the correlation between the change of coronal position at ankle point and the risk of poor recovery of joint function was analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression.A restricted cubic spline Logistic regression model was established to analyze the dose-response relationship.The prediction model of regression equation y=1-1/(1+e-z)was established and verified. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The width and depth of ankle point on the affected side,coronal angle and sagittal angle were significantly higher than those on the healthy side(all P<0.05),and compared with the excellent group,the difference of ankle point width,depth difference,coronal angle difference and sagittal angle difference were greater in the poor group(P<0.05).(2)The combined model showed that the risk of poor joint function was increased by 3%for every 1? increase in coronal angle,regardless of whether the angle was within the normal range.(3)Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression and multivariate Logistics regression analysis showed that after adjusting for potential confounding factors,it was found that age,lack of functional exercise in early stage,no calcaneal traction,failure to remove internal fixation,postoperative complications,and increased ankle coronal angle were independent risk factors for joint function recovery(P<0.05).(4)The coronal angle within 3 months after surgery was independently correlated with the risk of poor joint function recovery(OR=1.57,95%CI:1.38-1.76,P=0.002),and the trend test of the coronal angle from low to high quintile in each postoperative period had statistical significance(Ptrend<0.001).(5)Restricted cubic spline model analysis showed that there was no nonlinear relationship between the coronal angle change of ankle point and the risk of poor joint function recovery in males or females.Through Bootstrap self-sampling,the prediction model has good differentiation and accuracy.(6)The reduction of coronal angle of ankle point after ankle fracture plays a significant role in promoting the recovery of joint function.Therefore,the detection of coronal angle of ankle point after ankle fracture is helpful to understand the recovery of joint function of patients.

ObjectiveAutism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by difficulties with communication and social interaction, restricted and repetitive behaviors. Previous studies have indicated that individuals with ASD exhibit early and lifelong attention deficits, which are closely related to the core symptoms of ASD. Basic visual attention processes may provide a critical foundation for their social communication and interaction abilities. Therefore, this study explores the behavior of children with ASD in capturing attention to changes in topological properties. MethodsOur study recruited twenty-seven ASD children diagnosed by professional clinicians according to DSM-5 and twenty-eight typically developing (TD) age-matched controls. In an attention capture task, we recorded the saccadic behaviors of children with ASD and TD in response to topological change (TC) and non-topological change (nTC) stimuli. Saccadic reaction time (SRT), visual search time (VS), and first fixation dwell time (FFDT) were used as indicators of attentional bias. Pearson correlation tests between the clinical assessment scales and attentional bias were conducted. ResultsThis study found that TD children had significantly faster SRT (P<0.05) and VS (P<0.05) for the TC stimuli compared to the nTC stimuli, while the children with ASD did not exhibit significant differences in either measure (P>0.05). Additionally, ASD children demonstrated significantly less attention towards the TC targets (measured by FFDT), in comparison to TD children (P<0.05). Furthermore, ASD children exhibited a significant negative linear correlation between their attentional bias (measured by VS) and their scores on the compulsive subscale (P<0.05). ConclusionThe results suggest that children with ASD have difficulty shifting their attention to objects with topological changes during change detection. This atypical attention may affect the child’s cognitive and behavioral development, thereby impacting their social communication and interaction. In sum, our findings indicate that difficulties in attentional capture by TC may be a key feature of ASD.

Mental state is an important part of the normal life activities of the human body, and it is also the most external expression and the most easily obtained information of the physical condition. The normal activities of the mind depend on the normal operation of the viscera, qi, and blood, and are a unified whole that prospers together and suffers together. The theory of the five-spirit-viscera in the Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic revealed that the normal mental activities of the human body were dominated by the five internal organs, that is, the five internal organs were the body and the five spirits were the function. And it highlighted the viewpoint that the five internal organs store the spirits and are actually one. The heart governs the spirit and belongs to the four internal organs. On this basis, Synopsis of Golden Chamber used the internal organs to diagnose and treat mental diseases, integrating the theory of the five spirits into it, forming a unique method of diagnosis and treatment with the heart as the leading factor and regulating the qi and blood of the four internal organs. It identified the pathogenesis of diseases such as pathogenic crying, lily disease, and hysteria from five levels: heart deficiency and weak qi, heart-lung disharmony, heart-liver disharmony, the heart of the loss of the spleen nourishment, and disharmony between heart and kidney. The treatment was mainly to replenish the deficiency of the viscera and eliminate the pathogens, reflecting the characteristics of regulating the mind and calming the four internal organs. This unique view on diagnosis and treatment has profoundly influenced the diagnosis and treatment theories of mental illnesses by later doctors, and is of great significance to the current clinical treatment of such illnesses.

ObjectiveTo investigate the impact of early intervention with Yishen Huazhuo prescription （YHP） on the learning and memory of accelerated aging model mice， as well as its underlying mechanism. MethodForty-eight 3-month-old male SAMP8 mice were randomly assigned into four groups， including the model group， low-dose YHP group， high-dose YHP group， and donepezil group. Additionally， 24 SAMR1 mice of the same age were divided into a control group and a YHP treatment control group， each consisting of 12 mice. The YHP groups received YHP at doses of 6.24 g·kg^-1 and 12.48 g·kg^-1， while the donepezil group was treated with donepezil at a dose of 0.65 mg·kg^-1. The model group and control groups were given physiological saline. The mice were gavaged once daily for a duration of four weeks. Spatial learning and memory abilities of mice were assessed using the Morris water maze test. Immunofluorescence staining was employed to evaluate neuronal density as well as expression levels of M1 microglial （MG） polarization marker inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS） and M2 MG polarization marker arginase-1 （Arg-1） in the hippocampus region. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to measure serum levels of pro-inflammatory factor interleukin 1β （IL-1β） and anti-inflammatory factor transforming growth factor-β₁ （TGF-β₁）. Furthermore， Western blot analysis was conducted to determine expressions of amyloid β peptide1-42 （Aβ_1-42） along with triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 （TREM2）/nuclear factor kappa B （NF-κB） signaling pathway-related proteins TREM2， phospho （p）-NF-κB p65， and phospho-inhibitory kappa B kinase β （IKKβ） in the hippocampus. ResultCompared with the control group， the model group exhibited a significantly prolonged escape latency （P<0.01）， a significant reduction in neuron-specific nuclear protein （NeuN） expression in the hippocampus， a significant increase in iNOS expression in MG， and a significant decrease in Arg-1 expression. The serum IL-1β content was significantly increased， while the TGF-β₁ content was significantly decreased. Additionally， there was a significant decrease in TREM2 expression in the hippocampus and significant increases in p-NF-κB p65， p-IKKβ， and Aβ_1-42 expressions （P<0.05， P<0.01）. However， no significant changes were observed in escape latency， times of crossing the platform， and hippocampal NeuN expression in the YHP treatment control group. Conversely， iNOS expression in MG as well as the hippocampal p-NF-κB p65， p-IKKβ， and Aβ_1-42 expressions were significantly decreased. Furthermore， TREM2 expression was significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. In comparison to the model group， the low-dose YHP group showed a significantly shortened escape latency and an increased number of crossing the platform （P<0.05， P<0.01）. In the high-dose YHP group， the escape latency was significantly shortened （P<0.05）. In the low-dose YHP group， high-dose YHP group， the expression of NeuN in the hippocampus was significantly increased， the expression of iNOS in MG was significantly decreased， and the expression of Arg-l was significantly increased. The serum IL-1β content was significantly decreased， while the TGF-β₁ content was significantly increased. Furthermore， the expression of TREM2 in the hippocampus was significantly increased， and the expressions of p-NF-κB p65， p-IKKβ， and Aβ_1-42 were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. ConclusionEarly YHP intervention may promote the transformation of hippocampal MG from M1 to M2 by regulating the TREM2/NF-κB signaling pathway， reduce the release of neuroinflammatory factors， protect hippocampal neurons， and reduce the deposition of Aβ_1-42， and finally delay the occurrence of learning and memory decline in SAMP8 mice.

Fluorescence anisotropy(FA)analysis has many advantages such as no requirement of separation,high throughput and real-time detection,and thus has been widely used in many fields,including biochemical analysis,food safety detection,environmental monitoring,etc.However,due to the small volume or mass of the target,its combination with the fluorescence probe cannot produce significant signal change.To solve this issue,researchers often use nanomaterials to enhance the mass or volume of fluorophore to improve the sensitivity.Nevertheless,this FA amplification strategy also has some disadvantages.Firstly,nanomaterials are easy to quench fluorescence.As a result,the FA value is easily influenced by light scattering,which reduces the detection accuracy.Secondly,fluorescent probes in most methods require complex modification steps.Therefore,it is necessary to develop new FA probes that do not require the amplification of volume and mass or modification.As a new kind of nanomaterials,luminescent metal-organic framework(MOF)has a large volume(or mass)and strong fluorescence emission.It does not require additional signal amplification materials.As a consequence,it can be used as a potential FA probe.This study successfully synthesized a lanthanide metal organic framework(Ce-TCPP MOF)using cerium ion(Ce3+)as the central ion and 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-carboxylphenyl)porphyrin(H2TCPP)as the ligand through microwave assisted method,and used it as a novel unmodified FA probe to detect phosphate ions(Pi).In the absence of Pi,Ce-TCPP MOF had a significant FA value(r).After addition of Pi,Pi reacted with Ce3+in MOF and destroyed the structure of MOF into the small pieces,resulting in a decrease in r.The experimental results indicated that with the increase of Pi concentration,the change of the r of Ce-TCPP MOF(Δr)gradually increased.The Δr and Pi concentration showed a good linear relationship within the range of 0.5-3.5 μmol/L(0.016-0.108 mg/L).The limit of detection(LOD,3σ/k)was 0.41 μmol/L.The concentration of Pi in the Jialing River water detected by this method was about 0.078 mg/L,and the Pi value detected by ammonium molybdate spectrophotometry was about 0.080 mg/L.The two detection results were consistent with each other,and the detection results also meet the ClassⅡwater quality standard,proving that this method could be used for the detection of Pi in complex water bodies.

Objective To investigate the expression and prognostic value of serum receptor for advanced glycation end products(RAGE)and CXC-chemokine ligand 16(CXCL16)in patients with sepsis complicated with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).Methods A total of 234 patients with sepsis diagnosed and treated in a hospital from January 2019 to January 2022 were selected as the study subjects,and were divided into 82 patients with sepsis complicated with ARDS(ARDS group)and 152 patients with sepsis without ARDS(non-ARDS group)according to whether the subjects were complicated with ARDS.ARDS group was divided into survival group(n=50)and death group(n=32)according to the survival status within 28 days of admission.Another 60 healthy subjects who underwent physical examination in the same period were se-lected as the control group.Serum RAGE and CXCL16 levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Pearson correlation analysis of serum RAGE and CXCL16 levels with sequential organ failure assess-ment(SOFA)score,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ)score and oxygenation index in patients with sepsis and ARDS.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis of prognostic factors of sep-sis complicated with ARDS.The predictive value of serum RAGE and CXCL16 on the prognosis of sepsis complicated with ARDS patients was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve.Results The serum RAGE and CXCL16 levels in ARDS group were higher than those in non-ARDS group and control group,and the serum RAGE and CXCL16 levels in non-ARDS group were higher than those in control group,the differ-ence was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Compared with the survival group,the mechanical ventilation time,intensive care unit stay time,procalcitonin,SOFA score,APACHE Ⅱ score,serum RAGE,CXCL16 lev-els were higher in the death group,and the oxygenation index was lower,with statistical significance(all P＜0.05).The serum RAGE level in patients with sepsis complicated with ARDS was positively correlated with SOFA score and APACHE Ⅱ score(r=0.603,0.671,P＜0.05).Serum CXCL16 levels were positively corre-lated with SOFA score and APACHE Ⅱ score(r=0.655,0.707,P＜0.05).Serum RAGE and CXCL16 were negatively correlated with oxygenation index(r=-0.712,-0.683,P＜0.05).Multi-factor Logistics regres-sion analysis showed that serum RAGE and CXCL16 were independent risk factors for death within 28 days of admission in patients with sepsis complicated with ARDS.The area under the curve(AUC)of combined de-tection of serum RAGE and CXCL16 for predicting death within 28 days of admission in patients with sepsis complicated with ARDS was 0.882,which was higher than that of single index detection of serum RAGE and CXCL16,and the difference was statistically significant(Z=4.450,4.906,P＜0.05).Conclusion The com-bined detection of serum RAGE and CXCL16 is helpful to evaluate the clinical prognosis of sepsis complicated with ARDS patients.

BACKGROUND:Resistance training and weight-bearing exercise are recommended modes for patients with osteoporosis to improve bone health.High-intensity interval training is a high-impact weight-bearing exercise with obvious time-efficient characteristics;however,little attention has been paid to its impact on bones. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of high-intensity interval training on the bone health of ovariectomized rat models. METHODS:Thirty-six female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham group,model group and model exercise group(n=12 per group).Bilateral ovariectomy was used to prepare an osteoporosis rat model in the latter two groups.Six weeks after modeling,the model exercise group was subjected to a high-intensity interval training on an electric treadmill at 90%peak running speed for 2 minutes and 50%peak running speed for 1 minute as one session,a total of nine sessions,3 days per week,for 6 weeks.Rats in the sham and model groups were raised quietly in the mouse cage during the same period.The relevant indexes were tested 48-72 hours after the final training. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the sham group,bone mineral density,maximal load,stiffness,elasticity,trabecular volume fraction,and trabecular number decreased(P<0.05),while trabecular separation increased(P<0.05);the level of irisin in the serum,gastrocnemius and femur decreased(P<0.05);the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α protein and fibronectin type Ⅲ domain-containing protein 5 mRNA and protein in the gastrocnemius muscle decreased(P<0.05);the expression of type I collagen,Osterix,and Runx2 mRNA in the femur decreased(P<0.05);and the expression of anti-tartrate acid phosphatase,receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand,and osteoclast-associated receptor mRNA increased in the model group(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,bone mineral density,fracture load,maximal load,stiffness,elasticity,average trabecular thickness,and trabecular number increased(P<0.05),and trabecular separation decreased(P<0.05);the level of irisin in the serum,gastrocnemius and femur increased(P<0.05);the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α protein and fibronectin type Ⅲ domain-containing protein 5 mRNA and protein in gastrocnemius increased(P<0.05);the expression of type I collagen,Osterix,and Runx2 mRNA in the femur increased(P<0.05);and the expression of anti-tartrate acid phosphatase,receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand,and osteoclast-associated receptor mRNA decreased in the model exercise group(P<0.05).To conclude,short-term high-intensity interval training may improve bone health of ovariectomized rats through up-regulating the irisin level.

Objective To study the effects of Chrysanthemum Flos on blood pressure of spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHR)and evaluate its antioxidant activity in vitro and in vivo.Methods SHR were randomly divided into model,control and experimental-L,-H groups with 10 rats per group,and 10 WKY rats as blank group.Experimental-H,-L groups were given 2.10 and 0.525 g·kg-1 Chrysanthemum Flos extract by gavage;control group received 5.25 mg·kg-1 losartan by gavage;blank and model groups were given the same volume of 0.9％NaCl solution by gavage.Rats in each group were gavaged once a day for 8 weeks.After 8 weeks of continuous intragastric administration,the systolic blood pressure(SBP)and diastolic blood pressure(DBP)were observed.The contents of catalase(CAT),superoxide dismutase(SOD),glutathione peroxidase(GSH)and malondialdehyde(MDA)in serum were measured with kit colorimetry method.The in vitro free radical scavenging rates of Chrysanthemum Flos extract were detected by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH)and 2,2'-amino-di(2-ethyl-benzothiazoline sulphonic acid-6)ammonium salt(ABTS)methods.Results The SBP of blank,model,control and experimental-H,-L groups were(132.00±2.45),(204.00±4.55),(171.00±2.16),(181.00±3.74)and(184.67±4.78)mmHg;the DBP were(73.33±4.03),(175.67±3.40),(120.33±0.94),(125.33±2.87)and(125.67±2.36)mmHg;the contents of serum CAT were(9.24±3.99),(8.40±2.98),(9.24±2.42),(8.59±2.70)and(8.49±1.47)U·mL-1;the contents of serum SOD were(122.40±12.30),(75.30±28.37),(125.39±31.35),(110.92±26.14)and(103.37±22.31)U·mL-1;the contents of serum GSH were(117.93±10.18),(78.29±23.68),(118.57±26.08),(109.89±20.52)and(98.73±14.71)U·mL-1;the contents of serum MDA were(8.36±2.08),(8.45±3.38),(8.22±3.04),(7.09±3.21)and(7.24±3.32)nmol·L 1,respectively.Compared with model group,the differences of above indicators in control group and experimental-H,-L groups were statistically significant(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Chrysanthemum Flos extract showed certain free radical scavenging ability in vitro.The highest scavenging rates of DPPH and ABTS were 90.29％and 92.67％,respectively.Conclusion Chrysanthemum Flos extract had good antihypertensive activity.The antioxidation ability might be its antihypertensive mechanisms.

Objective Bevacizumab has been clinically used in colorectal cancer,ovarian cancer,cervical cancer,non-small cell lung cancer and other tumor diseases.Common adverse reactions during bevacizumab treatment include albuminuria,thrombosis,bleeding,gastrointestinal perforation and hypertension,among which the incidence of hypertension is as high as 19％-47％.The occurrence of hypertension affects the quality of life of patients,hinds the normal development of tumor treatment,and even induces serious cardiovascular diseases and increases the risk of death,which requires clinical attention.In this paper,the mechanism,influencing factors,prognosis and related treatment of bevacizumab associated hypertension were reviewed,so as to provide reference for clinical rational drug use.

Objective To explore the role of resveratrol in the immune response and proliferation of macrophages induced by homocysteine(Hcy).Methods ANA-1 cells were divided into control group(conventional culture),model group(100 μmol·L-1 Hcy),experimental-L,-M,-H groups(adding 25,50 and 100 μmol·L-1 resveratrol to model group,respectively),Hcy+Ad-SIRT1 group(100 μmol·L-1 Hcy+Ad-SIRT1),Hcy+si-FOXO1 group(100 μmol·L-1 Hcy+si-FOXO1),Hcy+Res-L+Ad-SIRT1+si-FOXO1 group(100 μmol·L-1 Hcy+25 μmol·L-1 Resveratrol transfected with Ad-SIRT1+si-FOXO1).The cell proliferation was detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT),and the concentration of interleukin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in the supernatant of cell culture medium was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The gene and protein expression of silencing information regulator 1(SIRT1)and forkhead protein 01(FOXO1)were detected by Western blot.Results The optical density of 450 nm in control group,model group and experimental-L,-M,-H groups were 0.25±0.02,0.36±0.02,0.33±0.01,0.30±0.02 and 0.29±0.01,respectively.Compared with the control group,the cell proliferation in the model group was significantly increased(P＜0.05).Cell proliferation in experimental-L,-M,-H groups was significantly decreased compared with model group(all P＜0.05).IL-6 in the supernatant of cell culture medium of control group,model group and experimental-L group were(394.04±20.06),(614.23±21.09)and(501.53±16.52)pg·mL-1,respectively;TNF-α were(516.54±18.96),(717.22±24.81)and(632.74±19.11)pg·mL-1,respectively;SIRT1 relative protein expression were(1.00±0.05),(0.57±0.05)and(0.77±0.04),respectively;the relative protein expression of FOXO1 were 1.00±0.05,2.31±0.18 and 1.58±0.11,respectively.Compared with the control group,the above indexes in the experimental-L group had statistical significance(all P＜0.05).The contents of IL-6 and TNF-α in cell culture fluid supernatant in model group,experimental-L group,Hcy+Ad-SIRT1 group and Hcy+si-FOXO1 group were significantly lower than those in model group,with statistical significance(all P＜0.05).After co-transfection with Ad-SIRT1 and si-FOXO1,the contents of IL-6 and TNF-α in cell culture medium superserum of experimental-L group were significantly lower than those of Ad-SIRT1 group and si-FOXO1 group(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Resveratrol can attenuate the immune response and proliferation of macrophages induced by Hcy,which may be related to the alteration of SIRT1/FOXO1 pathway.
