BACKGROUND:The reasonable implantation range of femoral prosthesis in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty in patients with osteoporosis has not been investigated,and previous studies have often been based on unicompartmental knee arthroplasty models in normal bone,with fewer mechanical studies in models with non-normal bone.Complications after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty have been shown to be highly associated with osteoporosis. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the biomechanical effects of the coronal inclination of the Sled fixed platform femoral prosthesis on unicompartmental knee arthroplasty in patients with osteoporosis and to find the correlation between osteoporosis and mid-and long-term complications after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. METHODS:Based on the digital imaging technology to obtain the data of the knee joint and prosthesis,a normal bone knee model is then created by using specialized software such as Mimics and Geomagic studio.Based on a validated normal bone knee model,an osteoporotic knee model was created by changing the material parameters.Totally 14 unicompartmental knee arthroplasty finite element models were created using Sled fixed platform femoral prosthesis:standard position(0°),varus and valgus angles:3°,6°,9° in the normal bone and osteoporosis groups.Stress changes on the surface of polyethylene liner,cancellous bone under tibial prosthesis,and cortical bone were calculated and analyzed in all unicompartmental knee arthroplasty models. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In the osteoporotic models,the high stress values of the polyethylene liner surface and the cancellous bone under the tibial prosthesis increased with the increase of the tilt angle of the femoral prosthesis,and the high stress values of the cortical bone surface under the tibial prosthesis increased with the increase of the prosthesis valgus angles and decreased with the increase of the varus angles.(2)For the polyethylene liner surface as well as the subcortical bone surface of the tibial prosthesis,the high stress values of the models for each inclination angle in the osteoporosis group were greater than those of the corresponding models in the normal bone group.For the surface of the cancellous bone under the tibial prosthesis,the high stress values of the tilt angle models of the osteoporosis groups were smaller than those of the normal bone groups.(3)Osteoporosis may cause biomechanical abnormalities in the internal structures of the knee after unicondylar replacement,increasing the potential risk of postoperative aseptic loosening of the prosthesis and periprosthetic fractures.Varus and valgus of the femoral prosthesis in the coronal plane should be avoided as much as possible when performing medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty with a Sled fixation platform in osteoporotic knees.

ObjectiveBased on a new method for animal model evaluation， this study aims to analyze the characteristics of diseases and syndromes of existing animal models of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder （ADHD） from both traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） and western medical perspectives and propose suggestions for improvement. MethodsA systematic search of the China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI） and PubMed was conducted for literature on ADHD animal models. According to TCM and western medical diagnostic criteria， core and accompanying symptoms of the models were assigned with scores to comprehensively evaluate the clinical consistency. ResultsThe selection of experimental animals for ADHD models primarily involved rodents， with modeling methods including genetic， chemical induction， and environmental induction. The average consistency of clinical diseases and syndromes with TCM and western medicine was 45.19% and 49.42%， respectively. The spontaneously hypertensive （SHR） rats and nicotine/smoking models had the highest consistency with TCM， while the social isolation models had the highest consistency with western medicine. Most models were guided by western medicine theories， which can meet the surface validity and structural validity requirements of western medicine but lacked precise differentiation of TCM syndromes. ConclusionExisting ADHD animal models primarily focus on a single genotype or environmental factor， lacking comprehensive consideration of multigenic interactions and environmental factors. Moreover， the selection of model evaluation indicators is relatively singular， primarily focusing on "disease" indicators， while TCM "syndrome" indicators have not been fully considered. It is recommended to introduce a "formula-to-syndrome" approach in the preparation of TCM models for ADHD and establish and improve an evaluation system of animal models combining diseases and syndromes， so as to provide a solid foundation for future experimental research.

BACKGROUND:Osteoporosis is a common comorbidity in patients with knee osteoarthritis.The impact of osteoporosis on the prognosis of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is a trending topic of current research. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of different bone densities on the stress value and stress distribution of each structure in the joint after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty using finite element analysis,and to evaluate the correlation between osteoporosis and complications. METHODS:CT and MRI were adopted to obtain the lower limb image data of a volunteer.Geomagic Studio,Ansys workbench,and Mimics were used to establish a finite element model of the knee joint with normal sclerotin condition(T-value≥-1.0).The finite element model of the knee joint with osteopenia(-2.5

The canalis sinuosus,a canal containing the anterior superior alveolar nerve bundle,originates from the infraorbital canal and extends along the maxillary sinus and nasal cavity edges to the anterior maxilla.It was once regarded as an anatomical variation.However,with the widespread application of cone beam computed tomography(CBCT),the detection rate of canalis sinuosus in the population has increased.The canalis sinuosus exhibits diverse courses,branching into multiple accessory canals and terminating at the nasal floor or the anterior tooth region,with the majority traversing the palatal side of the central incisor.The anterior superior alveolar nerve bundle within the canalis sinuosus not only innervates and nourishes the maxillary anterior teeth and the corresponding soft tissues,and the maxillary sinus mucosa,but also relates to the nasal septum,lateral nasal wall,and parts of the palatal mucosa.To minimize surgical complications,strategies for preventing and treating canalis sinuosus injuries need to be investigated.Preoperatively,CBCT is used to identify the canalis sinuosus and to virtually design implant placement at a distance of more than 2 mm from the canalis sinuosus.Intraoperatively,assessing bleeding and patient comfort,complemented by precision surgical techniques such as the use of implant surgical guide plates.Postoperatively,CBCT is used to examine the relationship between the implant and the canalis sinuosus,and treatment of canalis sinuosus injuries can be tailored based on the patient's symptoms.This review summarizes the detection of canalis sinuosus in the population,its anatomical characteristics,and the physiological functions in the anterior maxilla,and discusses strategies for avoiding canalis sinuosus injuries during implant surgery,thereby enhancing clinical awareness and providing references for clinical decision-making.

Background::Clinical opportunistic screening is a cost-effective cancer screening modality. This study aimed to establish an easy-to-use diagnostic model serving as a risk stratification tool for identification of individuals with malignant gastric lesions for opportunistic screening.Methods::We developed a questionnaire-based diagnostic model using a joint dataset including two clinical cohorts from northern and southern China. The cohorts consisted of 17,360 outpatients who had undergone upper gastrointestinal endoscopic examination in endoscopic clinics. The final model was derived based on unconditional logistic regression, and predictors were selected according to the Akaike information criterion. External validation was carried out with 32,614 participants from a community-based randomized controlled trial.Results::This questionnaire-based diagnostic model for malignant gastric lesions had eight predictors, including advanced age, male gender, family history of gastric cancer, low body mass index, unexplained weight loss, consumption of leftover food, consumption of preserved food, and epigastric pain. This model showed high discriminative power in the development set with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.791 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.750–0.831). External validation of the model in the general population generated an AUC of 0.696 (95% CI: 0.570–0.822). This model showed an ideal ability for enriching prevalent malignant gastric lesions when applied to various scenarios.Conclusion::This easy-to-use questionnaire-based model for diagnosis of prevalent malignant gastric lesions may serve as an effective prescreening tool in clinical opportunistic screening for gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the role of macrophages in the process of fine particulate matter (PM2.5)exposure induced damage to pulmonary blood-air barrier.Methods Eighteen male BALB/C mice (aged of 10 weeks,weighing 24～27 g)were randomly divided into control group and low-and high-dose PM2.5 exposure groups (receiving 1 .8 and 16.2 mg/kg,respectively),with 6 mice in each group.The control group received tracheal instillations of normal saline on days 1,4,and 7,whereas the exposure groups were administered corresponding dose of PM2.5 exposure at the same time points.In 24 h after last exposure,pathological changes in the lung tissues were observed,and the contents of total protein (TP ),lactate dehydrogenase (LDH ),and alkaline phosphatase (AKP ) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF ),and F4/80 protein level in lung tissue were measured to evaluate the blood-air barrier damage and macrophage infiltration within the lung tissues.Additionally,an in vitro model of the blood-air barrier was established using A549 alveolar epithelial cells and EA.hy926 vascular endothelial cells.In combination with a THP-1 macrophage model,the supernatant PM2.5 supernatant,macrophage supernatant,and PM2.5-macrophage supernatant were incubated with the barrier model for 24 h,respectively.Transmembrane electrical resistance (TEER),sodium fluorescein permeability of the barrier model,and LDH release from the barrier cells were measured to ascertain the extent of macrophage-mediated enhancement in barrier damage induced by PM2.5 exposure.Furthermore,the expression of inflammatory cytokines,such as TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,and IL-8 in the macrophages after PM2.5 exposure was analyzed with quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR)and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results PM2.5 exposure induced lung tissue damage in mice in a dose-dependent manner,significantly elevated the contents of TP,LDH and AKP in the BALF and caused marked infiltration of macrophages into the lung tissue,especially the high-dose exposure when compared with the mice from the control group (P<0.01 ).In vitro barrier model exposure experiments showed that in comparison with the treatment of 150 and 300 μg/mL PM2.5 and macrophage supernatant,the same doses of PM2.5-macrophage supernatant resulted in notably decreased TEER and significantly enhanced permeability in the barrier model (P<0.01 ),and markedly increased LDH release from epithelial and endothelial barrier cells (P<0.01 ).Additionally,the exposure of 150 and 300μg/mL PM2.5 led to a significant up-regulation of TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,and IL-8 in the macrophages (P<0.01 ).Conclusion Macrophages deteriorate PM2.5-induced functional impairment of the pulmonary blood-air barrier.

Objective:To explore the impact of self-disclosure on demoralization syndrome in patients with permanent enterostomy for colorectal cancer, so as to provide reference for clinical nursing interventions for those patients.Methods:From January to May 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 207 patients with permanent enterostomy for colocrctal cancer of the Wound Ostomy Clinic of Laoshan Campus of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University as the research subjects. A survey was conducted on patients using the General Information Questionnaire, Distress Disclosure Index, Social Support Rating Scale, and the Demoralization Scale Mandarin Version.Results:Among 207 patients with permanent enterostomy for colorectal cancer, the scores of self-disclosure, social support, and demoralization syndrome were 35.00 (26.00, 47.00) , 32.00 (26.00, 39.00) , and 35.00 (23.00, 47.00) , respectively. A total of 128 patients (61.8%) were in moderate demoralization, and 37 patients (17.9%) were in severe demoralization. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that place of residence, self-care of stoma, self-disclosure, and social support were the influencing factors for demoralization syndrome in patients with permanent enterostomy for colorectal cancer ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Patients with permanent enterostomy for colorectal cancer have a high overall score of demoralization syndrome, and a high proportion of patients with moderate to severe demoralization. Medical and nursing staff should focus on patients in remote rural areas and those with poor self-care abilities to stomas, develop targeted intervention measures to improve patients' negative emotions, enhance their self-disclosure, and pay attention to strengthening social support to relieve their demoralization syndrome, thereby improving their quality of life.

Cardiac arrest most commonly occurs outside of the hospital, known as out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), and is an important global health problem. Approximately 40% of cardiac arrest has no clear cause. Hereditary arrhythmias and cardiomyopathies factors contribute to cardiac arrest. The identification of genetic factors for cardiac arrest after its occurrence is of great value not only for the individual, but also for relatives who may be at risk for the disease in their family. In the United States, there are over 350?000 cases of OHCA and over 200?000 cases of in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) each year, and in Western Europe, cardiac arrest accounts for 15%-20% of all adult natural deaths and 50% of all cardiovascular deaths. In order to reduce the burden caused by cardiac arrest within society, it is essential to further understand its etiological factors, such as incidence in different regions, risk factors, and populations at higher risk. For each individual, cardiac arrest is the result of a complex interaction of genetic and acquired factors. Understanding the complex interplay of pathogenic factors in cardiac arrest and the development of individualized prevention and treatment approaches requires the collection of clinical data from cardiac arrest populations and multimodal analysis in order to identify epidemiological features and risk factors for cardiac arrest. Recently, cardiac arrest-related data are being collected and integrated in Europe in different regions and populations. As a result of the commitment to the creation of large datasets of clinical information on cardiac arrest populations, the knowledge of the pathology of cardiac arrest pathogenesis as well as risk factors is steadily increasing. This article reviews the epidemiologic data of cardiac arrest in recent years and the associated risk factors, thus providing ideas for developing better strategies for the prevention and treatment of cardiac arrest.
