BACKGROUND:Pauwels Ⅲ femoral neck fracture is a typical unstable fracture characterized by high vertical shear force and high incidence of postoperative complications.At present,there are many fixation methods for Pauwels Ⅲ fracture,and there is no clear conclusion as to which internal fixation is the best fixation method for Pauwels Ⅲ femoral neck fracture in young adults. OBJECTIVE:To compare the clinical effect of three inverted triangle cannulated screws assisted transverse lag screws and femoral neck system in fixing Pauwels Ⅲ femoral neck fractures of young adults. METHODS:From May 2021 to December 2022,21 young and middle-aged patients with Pauwels Ⅲ femoral neck fracture were treated with three inverted triangle cannulated screws assisted by transverse lag screws and femoral neck system in Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University.Of them,9 patients were treated with three inverted triangle cannulated screws and one transverse lag screws perpendicular to the fracture line as the 3+1 cannulated screw group and 12 patients were treated with femoral neck system as the femoral neck system group.The two fixation methods were compared in terms of operation time,intraoperative blood loss,total incision length,intraoperative fluoroscopy times,fracture healing time,and limb function. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)All patients were followed up.Patients in the 3+1 cannulated screw group were followed up for 10-25 months,with a mean of(17.44±4.30)months.The patients in the femoral neck system group were followed up for 8-24 months,with a mean of(15.58±4.68)months.(2)The intraoperative fluoroscopy times and Harris score at 3 months postoperatively in the femoral neck system group were better than those in the 3+1 cannulated screw group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The intraoperative blood loss,total incision length,and femoral neck shortening distance in the 3+1 cannulated screw group were better than those in the femoral neck system group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in operation time,fracture healing time,and Harris score at the last follow-up between the two groups(P>0.05).(3)It is indicated that three inverted triangle cannulated screws assisted transverse lag screw and femoral neck system can achieve good clinical effects in the treatment of young and middle-aged Pauwels Ⅲ femoral neck fracture.The femoral neck system has fewer intraoperative fluoroscopy times and better early overall stability,while the 3+1 cannulated screw is more minimally invasive,easier to operate.Both fixation methods are worthy of clinical application and promotion,and can be selected according to the actual clinical situation.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of enhanced external counterpulsation(EECP)in elderly patients with acute ischemic stroke(AIS)complicated by coronary heart dis-ease(CHD).Methods A total of 65 AIS patients with CHD admitted in our hospital from Janu-ary to June 2023 were recruited and randomly divided into a control group(drug secondary pre-vention,n=32)and a treatment group(drug combined with EECP therapy,n=33).Their NIHSS score,mRS score and Canadian Cardiovascular Society(CCS)angina grade were evaluated before and after treatment and compared between the two groups.The incidences of recurrent ischemic stroke,new hemorrhagic stroke and major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)were also recor-ded during treatment.Results The NIHSS score and mRS score were significantly decreased in both groups after treatment(P＜0.01).After treatment,the NIHSS score(2.67±1.63 vs 3.56± 1.83),mRS score[1.0(0.0,1.0)vs 2.0(1.0,2.0)]and CCS grade[1.0(1.0,2.0)vs 2.0(1.0,2.0)]were obviously lower in the treatment group than the control group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).There were no statistical differences in the incidence rates of recurrent ischemic stroke,new-onset hem-orrhagic stroke,and MACE between the control group and the treatment group(9.4％vs 6.1％,6.3％vs 3.0％,12.5％vs 6.1％,P＞0.0 5).Conclusion EECP is a safe and effective treatment option for elderly AIS patients with CHD.

Salmonella is an important foodborne pathogen and one of the main causes of diarrhea. Every year, about 550 million people suffer from diarrhea due to Salmonella infection, of which about 230 000 die. It has become a major global public safety issue. The application fields of Salmonella detection involve food safety, water quality monitoring, animal husbandry, public health monitoring, and medical diagnosis. The detection requirements mainly come from three aspects: pathogen identification, serotype identification, drug resistance and virulence identification. In recent years, the detection technology for Salmonella has made rapid progress, especially the emergence and development of emerging molecular detection technologies, providing new perspectives for Salmonella detection in different scenarios. However, due to the diversity of Salmonella serotypes and the complexity of detection scenarios, existing detection technologies still have some pain points (such as long detection time, cumbersome operation steps, low scene adaptability, etc.). This article will elaborate on the application of several emerging molecular detection technologies with distinct characteristics, such as CRISPR Cas technology, digital PCR technology, sequencing technology, and microfluidic technology, in Salmonella detection. It aims to provide a reference for the development and improvement of Salmonella detection technology and the establishment of infection warning and control systems.

OBJECTIVE To prepare anemoside B4 （AB4） and programmed cell death ligand 1 （PDL1） siRNA （siP） co- delivered cRGD-modified targeting liposomes （AB4/siP-c-L）， and to study the cellular uptake in vitro. METHODS The cRGD- modified AB4-loaded targeted liposomes （AB4-c-L） were prepared by ethanol injection. AB4-c-L was mixed with 20 nmol/L siP in the same volume and AB4/siP-c-L was obtained through electrostatic adsorption. The particle size， Zeta potential， morphology， encapsulation efficiency and drug content， in vitro release behavior and serum stability of AB4/siP-c-L were investigated by laser scattering particle size tester， transmission electron microscopy， ultrafiltration centrifugation， dialysis and agar-gel electrophoresis block test. Cellular uptake of AB4/siP-c-L by Lewis lung cancer cells LLC and its intracellular localization were evaluated by flow cytometry and confocal laser scan technique. RESULTS The average particle size of AB4/siP-c-L was （187.4±3.1） nm， and the Zeta potential was （33.5±1.4） mV. AB4/siP-c-L was spheroidal in shape. The encapsulation efficiency and content of AB4 were （95.2±0.4） % and （1.0±0.2） mg/mL， respectively. AB4/siP-c-L could better package siP， and exhibited good serum stability， obvious pH sensitivity and sustained release property. The uptake rate of AB4/siP-c-L by LLC cells was significantly higher than that of free drug， and was able to accumulate in cytoplasm. CONCLUSIONS AB4/siP-c-L can effectively realize the co-loading of AB4 and gene drug siP， which has certain in vitro targeting to LLC cells.

The aim of this study was to investigate the growth characteristics of primarily cultured astrocytes and microglia of different generations and then optimize the method for obtaining primary astrocytes and microglia effectively. Primarily cultured microglia were isolated and purified from the cortices of neonatal mice. The proliferation curve of mixed glia cells was measured by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, the proportion of astrocytes and microglia was detected by flow cytometry, and the polarization of the two types of glia cells was identified by immunofluorescence staining. Cell growth results showed that the mixed glia cells of P0 and P1 generation had the best proliferative activity; 97.3% of the high purity microglia could be obtained by mechanical shaking at 170 r/min for 30 min, and there was no significant difference in the morphology of ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 (Iba-1) positive microglia and the proportion of M1 and M2 phenotype among the P0, P1 and P2 generations of microglia isolated by the above methods. Moreover, 95.7 % of the high purity astrocytes could be obtained by astrocyte cell surface antigen-2 (ACSA-2) magnetic beads separation, and there was no significant difference in the morphology of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) positive astrocyte and the proportion of A1 and A2 phenotype among the P0, P1 and P2 generations of astrocyte isolated by the above methods. Taken together, this study observed the growth characteristics of primarily cultured microglia and astrocyte in vitro, and then proved the best generations for purifying microglia and astrocytes. Finally, we optimized the methods of obtaining microglia and astrocyte, and verified that continuous culture within 2 generations will not affect the functional phenotypes of glia cells. These results provide technical support for studying the molecular mechanism of inflammation-associated diseases in nervous system.
