Sonogenetics is an emerging synthetic biology technique that uses sound waves to activate mechanosensitive ion channel proteins on the cell surface to regulate cell behavior and function.Due to the widespread presence of mechanically sensitive ion channel systems in cells and the advantages of non-invasion,strong penetrability,high safety and high accuracy of sonogenetics technology,it has great development potential in basic biomedical research and clinical applications,especially in neuronal regulation,tumor mechanism research,sonodynamic therapy and hearing impairment.This review discusses the basic principles of sonogenetics,the development status of sonogenetics and its application in the prevention and treatment of noise-induced hearing loss,summarizes and analyzes the current challenges and future development direction,thus providing a reference for further research and development of sonogenetics in the field of military medicine.

Using methylated pyrroloxicam as a starting material and following the principles of drug design such as bioisosterism and active site binding,we designed and synthesized ten structurally novel target compounds,whose structures were characterized by 1H NMR and MS analysis.The in vitro antitumor activity of these title compounds was evaluated by measuring their inhibitory activity against pancreatic cancer cells Capan-1,leukemia cells L1210,and human liver cancer cells SMMC-7721.The results showed that compound 6f(IC50=4.8±0.5 μmol/L)exhibited good inhibitory activity against Capan-1 pancreatic cancer cells,that compound 6b(IC50=2.6±0.3 μmol/L)showed good inhibitory activity against L1210 leukemia cells,and that compound 6c(IC50=2.1±0.2 μmol/L)displayed good inhibitory activity against SMMC-7721 human liver cancer cells.These preliminary results from the antitumor activity experiments suggest that the introduction of benzothiazine derivatives plays a certain role in enhancing the antitumor activity of this class of compounds.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of matrine hydrochloride injection on acetaminophen(APAP)induced liver injury in mice.Methods Sixty male Kunming mice were randomly divided into blank group,model group and experimental-L,-M,-H groups.The mice were abdominal injected 300 mg·kg-1 APAP to build the acute liver injury modeling.The experimental-L,-M,-H groups were intravenous injected matrine of 0.7,1.4,and 2.8 mg·kg-1,respectively.Blank and model groups were injected with 10％glucose solution 10 mL·kg-1·d-1 via tail vein.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were used to measure the levels of glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase(GOT),glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase(GPT),interleukin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in mice serum.The kit were employed to detect the levels of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and malondialdehyde(MDA)in liver tissue.Results The serum GOT levels in the experimental-M,-H groups,model group and blank group were(5 593.45±128.46),(2 316.24±125.37),(8 302.16±267.15)and(40.13±7.69)U·L-1;the GPT levels were(6 159.37±129.64),(2 597.10±120.37),(8 1699.54±259.87)and(36.47±9.46)U·L-1;the IL-6 levels were(159.43±26.42),(96.37±25.84),(215.34±47.68)and(83.72±26.37)pg·mL-1;the TNF-α levels were(327.68±38.37),(249.69±44.97),(477.68±58.59)and(254.35±50.67)pg·mL-1;the SOD levels were(329.46±37.49),(371.16±33.76),(246.84±38.79)and(429.67±23.76)U·mg-1;the MDA levels were(5.34±0.76),(4.09±0.54),(12.46±3.76)and(3.12±0.42)nmol·mg-1.There were significant differences between the experimental-M,-H groups and the model group(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Matrine has a significant protective effect on APAP induced drug-induced liver injury,and its protective mechanism is related to inhibiting inflammatory response and alleviating oxidative stress response.

Objective To explore the molecular mechanism of Gualou Guizhi decoction which regulates the interferon regulator factor 5(IRF5)signaling pathway to inhibit M1 type microglia activation and reduce the inflammatory response to protect damaged nerve cells.Methods Microglia(BV2)cells were randomly divided into BV2-control,BV2-model,BV2-experimental-L,-M,-H groups.The BV2-control group was given routine culture;the BV2-model group used 100 ng·mL-1 lipopolysaccharide(LPS)to stimulate BV2 which establish an inflammatory model;the BV2-experimental-L,-M,-H groups were cultured in 50,100,200 μg·mL-1 GLGZD and 100 ng·mL-1 LPS.The HT22 cells were divided into the HT-22-blank group,HT-22-model group,HT-22-control group and HT-22 experimental group.HT-22-blank group were conventional culture;HT-22-model group were oxygen glucose deprivation was performed for 2 h,then the complete medium was replaced for 24 h;HT-22-control group were after 2 h of oxygen glucose deprivation,the 100 ng·mL-1 LPS conditioned medium was replaced and incubated for 24 h;HT-22-experimental group were after 2 h of oxygen glucose deprivation,the 200 μg·mL-1 GLGZD conditioned medium was added for 24 h.Interleukin-12(IL-12)and IL-23 were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA);the protein of IRF5,cluster differentiation 16(CD1 6)and MHC class Ⅱ(MHC-Ⅱ)was detected by Western blot;the expression of the synaptic marker protein class Ⅲ β-Tubulin(Tuj-1)was observed by immunofluorescence.Results IL-12 contents in the BV2-control,BV2-model and BV2-experimental-L,-M,-H groups were(2.62±1.02),(10.67±3.22),(6.87±1.61),(3.96±1.22)and(3.36±1.04)pg·mL-1;IL-23 contents were(20.40±2.04),(77.08±3.25),(76.28±3.75),(63.96±4.94)and(54.48±3.34)pg·mL-1;relative expression levels of IRF5 protein were 0.80±0.41,2.22±0.69,1.11±0.11,0.92±0.39 and 0.65±0.29;relative expression levels of CD16 protein were 0.69±0.45,1.91±0.52,1.42±0.22,1.04±0.15 and 0.67±0.30;relative expression levels of MHC-Ⅱ protein were 0.89±0.27,1.96±0.19,1.34±0.38,1.15±0.19 and 0.68±0.24.BV2-experimental-M,-H groups were compared with the BV2-model group,the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The Tuj-1 protein expression levels were 28.85±6.69,14.44±1.98,7.75±1.12 and 20.05±3.54,determined in the HT22-blank,HT22-model,HT22-control and HT22-experimental groups.The HT22-experimental group was compared with the HT22-control group,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion GLGZD may reduces the activation of microglia M1 phenotype through IRF5 signaling pathway,and then inhibits inflammatory response to protect damaged nerve cells.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective To investigate the anti-atherosclerotic mechanism of herbal cake-separated moxibustion.Methods Twenty-four New Zealand purebred male rabbits were randomly divided into normal group,model group,herbal cake-separated moxibustion group and Atorvastatin group,with 6 rabbits in each group.Except for the normal group,the rabbits in the other groups were fed with high-fat diet mixed with Propylthiouracil(PTU)method to construct an atherosclerosis model.At the same period of modeling,corresponding intervention was given.After 12 weeks,the levels of serum total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG)and low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)were detected.The pathological changes of rabbit aortic tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining.The levels of serum tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),interleukin 6(IL-6)and interleukin 10(IL-10)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The contents of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K),phosphorylated protein kinase B(p-AKT)and phosphorylated mammalian target of rapamycin(p-mTOR)in myocardial tissue were detected by Western Blot.Results Compared with the normal group,the serum levels of TC,TG and LDL-C in the model group were significantly increased(P＜0.001),the aortic vascular endothelial structure was significantly damaged,the serum levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were increased(P＜0.001),the serum level of IL-10 was decreased(P＜0.01),and the protein expression levels of PI3K,p-AKT and p-mTOR in myocardial tissue were significantly decreased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,the above indexes in the herbal cake-separated moxibustion group and the Atorvastatin group were significantly improved(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01 or P＜0.001).Compared with the Atorvastatin group,the contents of TG and LDL-C in the herbal cake-separated moxibustion group were increased(P＜0.01),and other indicators did not change significantly(P＞0.05).Conclusion The mechanism of anti-atherosclerosis of herbal cake-separated moxibustion may be related to the activation of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and the regulation of the expressions of inflammatory mediators TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-10.

Objective To measure the distance between the lateral compression Ⅱ(LC-Ⅱ)screw guide needle and the surrounding important structures around the anterior inferior iliac spine in pelvic fractures and to locate the needle point,so as to provide anatomical reference for clinical nail placement.Methods Totally 40 adult gross specimens of embalming were implanted with LC-Ⅱ screw guide needle under the surveillance of C-arm machine,and the specimens were dissected.The shortest distance between the insertion point and the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve,femoral nerve,femoral artery,femoral vein,anterior superior iliac spine and inguinal ligament was measured.The triangle was constructed between the insertion point,anterior superior iliac spine and inguinal ligament,and the exact location of the entry point was calculated.Results The average distance between the insertion point of the male needle and the femoral vein was(50.67±7.29)mm＞the anterior superior iliac spine(43.83±7.58)mm＞the femoral artery(38.35±6.63)mm＞the femoral nerve(31.17±1.67)mm=the inguinal ligament(28.69±6.59)mm＞the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve(7.98±3.81)mm.The mean distance between the insertion point of the female needle and the anterior superior iliac spine was(45.28±7.07)mm=femoral vein(43.72±6.89)mm＞femoral artery(33.76±6.33)mm＞femoral nerve(25.66±6.46)mm=inguinal ligament(23.22±5.00)mm＞lateral femoral cutaneous nerve(8.97±4.76)mm.The projection distance of the entry point was 31.77 mm for men and 38.41 mm for women.The Angle b was 42.81°for men and 31.71° for women.Conclusion The lateral femoral cutaneous nerve is most vulnerable to injury when LC-Ⅱ screw is inserted,and the risk of injury has nothing to do with sex.The insertion point positioning method a and b made LC-Ⅱ screw placement quickly,safely and accurately,and reduced fluoroscopy time and frequency.

Objective:To investigate the surgical situations and perioperative outcome of pancreaticoduodenectomy in Jiangsu Province and the influencing factors for postoperative 90-day mortality.Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 2 886 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy in 21 large tertiary hospitals of Jiangsu Quality Control Center for Pancreatic Diseases, including The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, from March 2021 to December 2022 were collected. There were 1 732 males and 1 154 females, aged 65(57,71)years. Under the framework of the Jiangsu Provincial Pancreatic Disease Quality Control Project, the Jiangsu Quality Control Center for Pancreatic Diseases adopted a multi-center registration research method to establish a provincial electronic database for pancrea-ticoduodenectomy. Observation indicators: (1) clinical characteristics; (2) intraoperative and post-operative conditions; (3) influencing factors for 90-day mortality after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3) or M(IQR), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers or constituent ratio, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test, continuity correction chi-square test and Fisher exact probability. Maximal Youden index method was used to determine the cutoff value of continuous variables. Univariate analysis was performed using the corresponding statistical methods based on data types. Multivariate analysis was performed using the Logistic multiple regression model. Results:(1) Clinical characteristics. Of the 2 886 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy, there were 1 175 and 1 711 cases in 2021 and 2022, respectively. Of the 21 hospitals, 8 hospitals had an average annual surgical volume of <36 cases for pancreaticoduodenectomy, 10 hospitals had an average annual surgical volume of 36-119 cases, and 3 hospitals had an average annual surgical volume of ≥120 cases. There were 2 584 cases performed pancreaticoduodenectomy in thirteen hospitals with an average annual surgical volume of ≥36 cases, accounting for 89.536%(2 584/2 886)of the total cases. There were 1 357 cases performed pancrea-ticoduodenectomy in three hospitals with an average annual surgical volume of ≥120 cases, accounting for 47.020%(1 357/2 886) of the total cases. (2) Intraoperative and postoperative conditions. Of the 2 886 patients, the surgical approach was open surgery in 2 397 cases, minimally invasive surgery in 488 cases, and it is unknown in 1 case. The pylorus was preserved in 871 cases, not preserved in 1 952 cases, and it is unknown in 63 cases. Combined organ resection was performed in 305 cases (including vascular resection in 209 cases), not combined organ resection in 2 579 cases, and it is unknown in 2 cases. The operation time of 2 885 patients was 290(115)minutes, the volume of intra-operative blood loss of 2 882 patients was 240(250)mL, and the intraoperative blood transfusion rate of 2 880 patients was 27.153%(782/2 880). Of the 2 886 patients, the invasive treatment rate was 11.342%(327/2 883), the unplanned Intensive Care Unit (ICU) treatment rate was 3.087%(89/2 883), the reoperation rate was 1.590%(45/2 830), the duration of postoperative hospital stay was 17(11)days, the hospitalization mortality rate was 0.798%(23/2 882), and the failure rate of rescue data in 2 083 cases with severe complications was 6.529%(19/291). There were 2 477 patients receiving postoperative 90-day follow-up, with the 90-day mortality of 2.705%(67/2477). The total incidence rate of complication in 2 886 patients was 58.997%(1 423/2 412). The incidence rate of severe complication was 13.970%(291/2 083). The comprehensive complication index was 8.7(22.6) in 2 078 patients. (3) Influencing factors for 90-day mortality after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Results of multivariate analysis showed that age ≥ 70 years, postoperative invasive treatment, and unplanned ICU treatment were independent risk factors for 90-day mortality after pancreaticoduodenectomy ( odds ratio=2.403, 2.609, 16.141, 95% confidence interval as 1.281-4.510, 1.298-5.244, 7.119-36.596, P<0.05). Average annual surgical volume ≥36 cases in the hospital was an independent protective factor for 90-day mortality after pancreaticoduodenectomy ( odds ratio=0.368, 95% confidence interval as 0.168-0.808, P<0.05). Conclusions:Pancreaticoduodenectomy in Jiangsu Province is highly con-centrated in some hospitals, with a high incidence of postoperative complications, and the risk of postoperative 90-day mortality is significant higher than that of hospitallization mortality. Age ≥ 70 years, postoperative invasive treatment, and unplanned ICU treatment are independent risk factors for 90-day motality after pancreaticoduodenectomy, and average annual surgical volume ≥36 cases in the hospital is an independent protective factor.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical and prognostic value of prothrombin time(PT)and activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT)in newly diagnosed patients with multiple myeloma(MM).Methods:The clinical data of 116 newly diagnosed MM patients in the Second Hospital and Third Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from October 2014 to March 2022 were analyzed retrospectively,and the patients were divided into two groups:normal PT and APTT group and prolonged PT or APTT group.The differences in sex,age,classification,staging,bleeding events,laboratory indicators[including hemoglobin(Hb),platelet count(PLT),serum calcium,serum albumin(ALB),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),serum creatinine and β 2-microglobulin],and cytogenetic characteristics between the two groups of patients were compared.The effect of prolonged PT or APTT on survival of patients with MM was analyzed.Results:Compared with patients in normal PT and APTT group,patients in prolonged PT or APTT group were more likely to experience bleeding events(x2=5.087,P=0.024),with lower ALB levels(x2=4.962,P=0.026)and PLT levels(x2=4.309,P=0.038),and higher serum calcium levels(x2=5.056,P=0.025).The positive rates of del17p,del13q and 1q21+in prolonged PT or APTT group were higher than those in normal PT and APTT group,but the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).K-M survival analysis showed that the prolonged PT or APTT group had a shorter median progression-free survival(PFS)(P=0.032)and overall survival(OS)(P=0.032).Multivariate Cox analysis showed that prolonged PT or APTT(HR=2.1 16,95％CI:1.025-4.372,P=0.043)and age ≥65 years(HR=2.403,95％CI:1.195-4.836,P=0.014)were independent risk factor for OS in newly diagnosed MM patients.However,prolonged PT or APTT had no significant effect on PFS of newly diagnosed MM patients(HR=1.162,95％CI:0.666-2.026,P=0.597).Conclusion:Newly diagnosed MM patients with prolonged PT or APTT have worse clinical indicators,shorter PFS and OS.Prolonged PT or APTT is an independent risk factor for OS in MM patients.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical efficacy between the combined therapy of fire needling and cupping, and western medication on herpes zoster of acute stage, as well as the effects on Th17 and Treg cells and inflammatory factors, i.e. IL-10 and IL-17 in the peripheral blood. METHODS: Eighty patients with herpes zoster of acute stage were randomly divided into a combined therapy (fire needling plus cupping) group and a western medication group, 40 cases in each one. In the combined therapy group, the pricking and scattering techniques with fire needle were used at ashi points and Jiaji (EX-B 2) corresponding to the affected spinal segments; afterwards, cupping therapy was delivered. The combined treatment was given once daily. In the western medication group, valaciclovir hydrochloride tablet and vitamin B₁ tablet were administered orally. The duration of treatment in each group was 10 days. Before each treatment from day 1 to day 10 and on day 11 , the score of symptoms and physical signs was observed in the two groups separately. Before each treatment from day 1 to day 10 and on day 11, 30, 60, the score of visual analogue scale (VAS) and skin lesion indexes were observed in the two groups. On day 60, the incidence of postherpetic neuralgia was recorded in the two groups. The levels of Th17 and Treg cells, Th17/Treg ratio in the peripheral blood, as well as serum levels of IL-10 and IL-17 were detected before and after treatment in the two groups. The clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups. RESULTS: From day 6 to day 10 during treatment and on day 11, the scores of symptoms and physical signs in the combined therapy group were lower than those of the western medication group (P<0.05, P<0.01). On day 3, day 6 to day 10 during treatment and day 11, day 30, VAS scores in the combined therapy group were lower than those of the western medication group (P<0.05, P<0.01). On day 60, the incidence of postherpetic neuralgia in the combined therapy group was lower compared with that in the western medication group (P<0.05). The blister arresting time and scabbing time in the combined therapy group were shorter than those of the western medication group (P<0.05). After treatment, the level of Th17, and Th17/Treg ratio in the peripheral blood, as well as the serum levels of IL-10 and IL-17 were all lower in comparison with those in the western medication group (P<0.05). The curative and remarkably effective rate was 82.5% (33/40) in the combined therapy group, higher than 62.5% (25/40) in the western medication group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION The early application of fire needling combined with cupping therapy can effectively treat herpes zoster of acute stage, relieve pain, and reduce the incidence of postherpetic neuralgia, which may be related to reducing the levels of Th17 and Treg cells, and Th17/Treg ratio in the peripheral blood, as well as the serum levels of IL-10 and IL-17 so that the cellular immune balance is modulated.
