Objective:To explore the clinical application of Hisense Computer-Assisted Sur-gery System(CAS)in the perioperative period of hepatectomy for liver cancer.Methods:Clinical data of patients undergoing laparoscopic hepatectomy(LH)for liver cancer from January 2021 to December 2022 were collected.Patients were divided into three groups based on surgical difficulty(low,medium,high)and further stratified into CAS-assisted subgroup and control subgroup ac-cording to whether the CAS system was used.Demographic and perioperative data were com-pared among different groups.Results:A total of 317 patients'clinical data were collected,in-cluding 31 cases in the low difficulty group,132 cases in th medium difficulty group,and 154 cases in the high difficulty group,with 108 cases(34.1％)in the CAS-assisted subgroup and 209 cases(65.9％)in the control group.In the medium difficulty group,the CAS-assisted subgroup had shorter operation time,drainage tube duration,and postoperative hospital stay compared to the control group(P＜0.001),and the AFP levels at 1 month postoperatively in the CAS-assisted sub-group were lower than those in the control group(P＜0.001).In the high difficulty group,the CAS-assisted subgroup showed shorter operation time,drainage tube duration,and postoperative hospi-tal stay,less intraoperative blood loss,and lower AFP levels 1 month post-operation compared to the control group(P＜0.001 for all).Conclusion:Preoperative CAS in medium and high difficulty laparoscopic liver resections improves perioperative outcomes.Hisense CAS effectively assists general surgeons in accurately identifying the anatomical site of liver tumors,providing precise pre-operative simulation and intraoperative navigation,thereby optimizing surgical strategies for pa-tients.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative joint disease and the most common type of arthritis. It involves almost any joint and can lead to chronic pain and disability. In the late 19th century, Roentgen discovered X-rays, and then began to use radiotherapy to treat tumors. In the 1980s, Luckey thought that low-level radiation (LDRT) might be beneficial to biology, and it was gradually applied to the treatment of some diseases. This paper introduces the epidemiology, risk factors, clinical manifestations and treatment methods of OA, points out that the cartilage injury and the important effect of synovial inflammation in the pathogenesis of OA, namely when the homeostasis of articular cartilage are destroyed, synthetic metabolism and catabolism imbalances, cartilage cells damaged their breakdown products consumed by synovial cells. Synovial cells and synovial macrophages secrete proinflammatory cytokines, metalloproteinases and proteolytic enzymes, leading to cartilage matrix degradation and chondrocyte damage, which aggravates synovial inflammation and cartilage damage, forming a vicious cycle. The possible mechanism and clinical research progress of LDRT in alleviating OA are discussed. LDRT can regulate inflammatory response, inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and promote the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines, thereby achieving anti-inflammatory effect. Studies have shown that after irradiation, the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) was decreased, the release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the production of superoxide were inhibited, the anti-inflammatory phenotype of macrophages was differentiated from M1 to M2, the inflammatory CD8⁺ T cells were transformed into CD4⁺ T cells, and the number of dendritic cells (DC) was significantly reduced. LDRT inhibit the production of proinflammatory factors in leukocytes, reduce their recruitment and adhesion, and down-regulate the expression levels of cell adhesion molecules such as selectin, intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM) and vascular endothelial cell adhesion molecule (VCAM). LDRT can regulate endothelial cells, stimulate endothelial cells to produce a large amount of TGF-β1, reduce the adhesion of endothelial cells to peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), and contribute to the anti-inflammatory effect of LDRT. It also exerted anti-inflammatory effects by regulating mitochondrial growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15). After low-level radiation, the MMP-13 (matrix metalloproteinases-13) and the ADAMTS5 (recombinant a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin-5) decreased, the Col2a1 (collagen type 2) increased in chondrocytes. In the existing clinical studies, most patients can achieve relief of joint pain and recovery of joint mobility after irradiation, and the patients have good feedback on the efficacy. The adverse reactions (acute reactions and carcinogenic risks) caused by LDRT in the treatment of OA are also discussed. During the treatment of OA, a few patients have symptoms such as redness, dryness or itching at the joint skin, and the symptoms are mild and do not require further treatment. Patients are thus able to tolerate more frequent and longer doses of radiotherapy. In general, LDRT itself has the advantages of non-invasive, less adverse reactions, and shows the effect of pain relief and movement improvement in the treatment of OA. Therefore, LDRT has a broad application prospect in the treatment of OA.

Transmission electron microscopy(TEM)is considered as an important characterization tool for revealing morphology of materials and an indispensable strategy for studying the mechanisms of charge-discharge process in battery.TEM samples needs be less than 0.1 μm thick,which means electrodeposited materials must undergo pre-treatment processes such as focusing ion beam etching,ultra-thin slicing,or ultrasonic dispersion before they can be observed via TEM.However,such treatments cause structure changes,and what real formed in electrodes is hard to estimate.In this work,a self-interlacing film layer composed of carbon nanotubes(CNTs)was fabricated on a copper grid through blade coating.A novel TEM grid was produced by optimizing the interlacing film's thickness and covering area through adjusting the interlacing state of various concentrations of CNTs.Utilizing the novel TEM grid as the battery's positive electrode,electrode deposits were acquired and subjected to TEM analysis to generate high-definition microstructure images of the electrode surface.This process provided new insights into sample preparation for investigating the deposition/stripping mechanism in high-energy-density metal anodes.

Objective To apply a COMSOL-based finite element analysis method to investigating the electric field effects produced by the human lower limb musculoskeletal system under the synergistic effects of stress field and electromagnetic field.Methods Firstly,a 3D human body model was constructed by Maxon Cinema 4D R21 software,and then imported into COMSOL 6.1 software in STL format.Secondly,an electromagnetic field intervention and stress loading model for the left lower limb of the human body was designed and constructed,in which 15 Hz quasi-pulse group current signals were used for electromagnetic field excitation and the stress field was realized by applying a vibration load with an average compressive force of about 90 N/cm2 to the left foot of the human body.Finally,the electromagnetic properties of human tissue were simulated by numerical simulation,and then the effects of stress field or elecromagnetic field or combined stress field and electromagnetic field on human bioelectric field were compared.Results Simulation results showed that the electric field intensity peaked at the leg joints under both electromagnetic and stress fields acting alone or synergistically,the bioelectric field intensity generated by the human body was related to the distance from the exogenous excitation loading location,and the electric field generated under synergistic action was equivalent to the linear superposition of the bioelectric field in the tissue induced by the electromagnetic field and the stress field acting alone.Conclusion Data supplement is provided for predicting bioelectric field changes within the musculoskeletal tissue,and theoretical foundation is laid for the development and application of multi-physics field synergistic intervention therapy for treating the disorders of the lower limb musculos-keletal system.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(9):21-26]

Objective: To explore the diagnosis, surgical management and outcome of jugular foramen chondrosarcoma (CSA). Methods: Fifteen patients with jugular foramen CSA hospitalized in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery of Chinese PLA General Hospital from December 2002 to February 2020 were retrospectively collected,of whom 2 were male and 13 were female, aging from 22 to 61 years old. The clinical symptoms and signs, imaging features, differential diagnosis, surgical approaches, function of facial nerve and cranial nerves IX to XII, and surgical outcomes were analyzed. Results: Patients with jugular foramen CSA mainly presented with facial paralysis, hearing loss, hoarseness, cough, tinnitus and local mass. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) could provide important information for diagnosis. CT showed irregular destruction on bone margin of the jugular foramen. MR demonstrated iso or hypointense on T1WI, hyperintense on T2WI and heterogeneous contrast-enhancement. Surgical approaches were chosen upon the sizes and scopes of the tumors. Inferior temporal fossa A approach was adopted in 12 cases, inferior temporal fossa B approach in 2 cases and mastoid combined parotid approach in 1 case. Five patients with facial nerve involved received great auricular nerve graft. The House Brackmann (H-B) grading scale was used to evaluate the facial nerve function. Preoperative facial nerve function ranked grade Ⅴ in 4 cases and grade Ⅵ in 1 case. Postoperative facial nerve function improved to grade Ⅲ in 2 cases and grade Ⅵ in 3 cases. Five patients presented with cranial nerves Ⅸ and Ⅹ palsies. Hoarseness and cough of 2 cases improved after operation, while the other 3 cases did not. All the patients were diagnosed CSA by histopathology and immunohistochemistry, with immunohistochemical staining showing vimentin and S-100 positive, but cytokeratin negative in tumor cells. All patients survived during 28 to 234 months' follow-up. Two patients suffered from tumor recurrence 7 years after surgery and received revision surgery. No complications such as cerebrospinal fluid leakage and intracranial infection occurred after operation. Conclusions: Jugular foramen CSA lacks characteristic symptoms or signs. Imaging is helpful to differential diagnosis. Surgery is the primary treatment of jugular foramen CSA. Patients with facial paralysis should receive surgery in time as to restore the facial nerve. Long-term follow-up is necessary after surgery in case of recurrence.
