BACKGROUND:Flap transplantation technique is a commonly used surgical procedure for the treatment of severe tissue defects,but postoperative flap necrosis is easily triggered by ischemia-reperfusion injury.Therefore,it is still an important research topic to improve the survival rate of transplanted flaps. OBJECTIVE:To review the pathogenesis and latest treatment progress of flap ischemia-reperfusion injury. METHODS:CNKI,WanFang Database and PubMed database were searched for relevant literature published from 2014 to 2024.The search terms used were"flap,ischemia-reperfusion injury,inflammatory response,oxidative stress,Ca2+overload,apoptosis,mesenchymal stem cells,platelet-rich plasma,signaling pathways,shock wave,pretreatment"in Chinese and English.After elimination of irrelevant literature,poor quality and obsolete literature,77 documents were finally included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Flap ischemia/reperfusion injury may be related to pathological factors such as inflammatory response,oxidative stress response,Ca2+overload,and apoptosis,which can cause apoptosis of vascular endothelial cells,vascular damage and microcirculation disorders in the flap,and eventually lead to flap necrosis.Studies have found that mesenchymal stem cell transplantation,platelet-rich plasma,signaling pathway modulators,shock waves,and pretreatment can alleviate flap ischemia/reperfusion injuries from different aspects and to varying degrees,and reduce the necrosis rate and necrosis area of the grafted flap.Although there are many therapeutic methods for skin flap ischemia/reperfusion injury,a unified and effective therapeutic method has not yet been developed in the clinic,and the advantages and disadvantages of various therapeutic methods have not yet been compared.Most of the studies remain in the stage of animal experiments,rarely involving clinical observations.Therefore,a lot of research is required in the future to gradually move from animal experiments to the clinic in order to better serve the clinic.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and prognostic factors of acute cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in Jianyang City from 2020 to 2023. Methods Medical records of acute cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease patients treated in three hospitals in Jianyang City from January 2020 to December 2023 were selected, and their epidemiological characteristics were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for mortality. Results From 2020 to 2023, 23000 cases of acute cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events were reported in Jianyang City, with a standardized incidence rate of 508.76/100 000 and a gender ratio of 1.33:1. All diseases and the total standardized incidence rate of men are higher than those of women; ≥ The total incidence rate and all incidence rate of the 85 year old group are the highest; The incidence rate is the highest in 2021, and the incidence rate is the highest in spring and winter. The standardized mortality rate of acute cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events was 108.08/100 000, with significant differences among different ages, disease types, and onset seasons (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that age, onset season, and disease type were independent risk factors for patient mortality (P<0.05). Conclusion From 2020 to 2023, the standardized incidence rate of acute cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in Jianyang City is higher, which is more common in the elderly population. The risk of men is higher than that of women, and the risk is higher in spring and winter. Age, disease type, and onset season are all directly related to the risk of death. In the future, it is necessary to strengthen the monitoring and prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and optimize emergency treatment work in order to improve patient prognosis.

Objective To explore the effect of the knockdown of transmembrane 9 superfamily protein member 2 (TM9SF2) on the replication of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), and investigate its role in the mechanism of antiviral innate immunity. Methods Small interfering RNA (siRNA) was used to knock down the TM9SF2 gene in human non-small cell lung cancer A549 cells. The CCK-8 method was used to assess cell proliferation. A VSV-green fluorescent protein (VSV-GFP) infected cell model was established. The plaque assay was used to measure the viral titer in the supernatant. RT-qPCR and Western blotting were employed to quantify the mRNA and protein levels of VSV genome replication in A549 cells following VSV infection, as well as the expression of interferon β (IFN-β) mRNA and interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) protein phosphorylation following polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (poly(I:C)) stimulation. Results Compared to the negative control, the knockdown of TM9SF2 exhibited a significant effect, with no observed impact on A549 cell proliferation. The VSV-GFP infected A549 cell model was successfully established. After viral stimulation, fluorescence intensity was reduced following TM9SF2 knockdown, and the mRNA and protein levels of VSV were significantly downregulated. The viral titer of VSV was decreased. After poly(I:C) stimulation, TM9SF2 knockdown significantly upregulated the mRNA level of IFN-β and the phosphorylation level of IRF3 protein. Conclusion The knockdown of TM9SF2 inhibits the replication of vesicular stomatitis virus, and positively regulates the type I interferon signaling pathway, thus enhancing the host's antiviral innate immune response.

After the production of the gradient coil of the magnetic resonance imaging system, electromagnetic field testing is required to verify whether the assembly accuracy meets the electromagnetic field requirements. Since the passive magnetic field B _z satisfies the Laplace ^,s equation and is a harmonic function, and according to the extreme value principle of harmonic function, the maximum or minimum values of B _z can only appear on the boundaries, so the observation points of the magnetic field are generally selected on the surface of the spherical imaging area. For superconducting magnets used for human body magnetic resonance imaging, a spherical area with a center diameter of 40~50 cm is generally selected as the shimming target area. Only the field value of the target area needs to be measured, and the spherical harmonic coefficients obtained after data processing are used to determine the magnetic field performance of the gradient coil. There are many testing principles and methods for electromagnetic fields, so there is no unified way and method in the field of commercial applications. This article is based on the Gauss-Legendre numerical integration, measures and analyzes the magnetic field performance of gradient coils by building a data acquisition system, and this article applies numerical analysis methods to calculate the spherical harmonic coefficients of the magnetic field using discrete test data, providing a feasible method for the production and testing of gradient coils.

The casting and curing of gradient coils in the production process is a relatively complex process. The chemical process similar to the black box model requires confirmation of the impact of each step of input on the output results, while the curing temperature and molding method affect the roundness and deformation of the gradient coils. The analysis of the curing temperature and demolding method of gradient coils has important practical significance for the formation and micro deformation of gradient coils. This article uses ANSYS finite element simulation software to analyze the thermal structural coupling and the specific performance of actual products. It has been found that the product quality is more stable under the heat conduction mode, and the roundness of the mold is better when placed vertically and waiting for temperature cooling before being demolding than when placed horizontally.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Tongxinluo capsules on the use of anti-ischemic drugs in patients with chronic coronary syndrome （CCS） of Qi deficiency and blood stasis. MethodA multicenter，prospective cohort study was conducted，with Tongxinluo capsules intervention as the exposure factor. Patients were divided into an exposed group （combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine） and a non-exposed group （western medicine alone），and followed up for one year. The use of anti-ischemic drugs was observed on the day of enrollment and at 3，6，12 months. ResultA total of 186 patients were enrolled，with 128 in the exposed group and 58 in the non-exposed group. There were no statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups. At the 3-month follow-up，the types of first-line anti-ischemic drugs used in the exposed group were significantly fewer than those in the non-exposed group （P<0.01），and this difference remained statistically significant at 6 months （P<0.05） but was no longer significant at 12 months. At the 3- and 6-month follow-ups，there were no significant differences between the two groups in the types of second-line anti-ischemic drugs used. However，at the 12-month follow-up，the types of second-line anti-ischemic drugs used in the exposed group were significantly fewer than those in the non-exposed group （P<0.01）. At the 3-month follow-up，both groups showed a reduction in the types of first-line anti-ischemic drugs used compared to baseline （P<0.05），with a more pronounced reduction in the exposed group （P<0.05）. At the 6-month follow-up，the exposed group showed a significant reduction in the types of second-line anti-ischemic drugs used compared to baseline （P<0.05），while no significant changes were observed in the non-exposed group. At the 12-month follow-up，the difference in the types of second-line anti-ischemic drugs between the exposed and non-exposed groups was statistically significant （P<0.05），while there was no significant difference in the types of first-line anti-ischemic drugs. ConclusionTongxinluo capsules can effectively reduce the use of anti-ischemic drugs in patients with CCS of Qi deficiency and blood stasis.

Osteoarthritis （OA）， rheumatoid arthritis （RA）， gouty arthritis （GA）， and intervertebral disc degeneration （IVDD） are the most common bone and joint-related diseases in clinical practice. They can all affect related joints， leading to joint pain， swelling， dysfunction， and other symptoms. The difference is that OA is mainly caused by joint wear and age-related degradation and is manifested as joint pain， stiffness， and limited movement. RA is an autoimmune disease， manifested as joint pain， swelling， morning stiffness， and systemic symptoms. GA is caused by abnormal uric acid metabolism， manifested as acute arthritis， and IVDD is caused by intervertebral disc degeneration. Studies have shown that the mechanism of the occurrence and development of these bone and joint diseases is extremely complex. Pyroptosis is closely related to these bone and joint-related diseases by participating in bone and joint inflammation， cartilage metabolism imbalance， extracellular matrix degradation， and pathological damage of bone and joint. Inhibition of bone and joint-related pyroptosis will effectively prevent and treat bone and joint-related diseases. At the same time， many studies have confirmed that traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has a prominent curative effect and obvious advantages in the prevention and treatment of bone and joint-related diseases. TCM can reduce the inflammatory reaction of bone and joints， improve the pathological damage of bone and joint diseases， and relieve bone and joint pain by inhibiting pyroptosis. Therefore， this article aims to briefly explain the relationship between pyroptosis and the occurrence and development of bone and joint-related diseases and summarize the latest research reports on the intervention of pyroptosis in the treatment of bone and joint-related diseases by TCM monomers， TCM extracts， and TCM compounds. It offers new ideas for the in-depth study of the pathogenesis and drug treatment of bone and joint diseases and provides a basis for the clinical use of TCM to prevent and treat bone and joint diseases.

Objective: To analyze the relationship between microorganisms and endodontic disease by using 16 S rDNA sequencing to compare the composition of the microbial community in the root canals of teeth with pulpitis and apical periodontitis. Methods: Clinical samples were collected from teeth requiring root canal treatment.The total DNA of the bacteria in the samples and the gene fragments of the V3-V4 highly variable region on the 16S rDNA fragments were amplified through PCR.After sequencing by NovaSeq,statistical and bioinformatic analysis,including phylogenetic analysis,diversity analysis and analysis of group differences,were performed. Results: In total,6 teeth with pulpitis and 7 teeth with apical periodontitis were collected,and a total of 8 510 OTUs were obtained after next-generation sequencing,and the analysis of bacterial diversity showed that the difference between pulpitis and apical periodontitis in terms of the composition of the bacterial flora was statistically significant(P<0.05).In particular,the relative abundance of Proteobacteria,Acidobacteriota and Actinobacteriota phylum was significantly higher in the roots of teeth affected by pulpitis than apical periodontitis.The relative abundance of Bacteroidota phylum and Synergistota phylum was significantly higher in the root canals of teeth with apical periodontitis. Conclusion There is a complex diversity of infecting microorganisms in the root canals of teeth affected by endodontic diseases.The microbial communities in the infected root canals of pulpitis and apical periodontitis show some differences,and changes in the microbial composition of the root canals may be associated with the development of endodontic diseases.
