Objective:To investigate the regulatory effect of transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily C member 3 (TRPC3) on the retina in oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) mice and biological behavior of human retinal vascular endothelial cells (HREC).Methods:A total of 32 healthy SPF grade 7-day-old C57BL/6 mice were selected and randomly divided into a control group and an OIR group by the random number table method, with 16 mice in each group.The control group received no special treatment, and the OIR model was established in the OIR group.On postnatal day 17 (PN17), the success of the model establishment was verified by immunofluorescence staining of the retinal patch.The in vitro cultured HREC were divided into a normal control group, a transfection reagent group, and a si-TRPC3 group.The normal control group received no special treatment, while the transfection reagent group and the si-TRPC3 group were transfected with transfection reagent or transfection reagent + si-TRPC3.The relative expression of TRPC3 mRNA was detected by real-time quantitative fluorescence PCR.The relative expressions of TRPC3, transcription factor NF-E2 related factor (Nrf2), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) proteins were determined by Western blot.HREC were further divided into a normal control group, a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) group, a si-TRPC3 group, and a Pyr3 (TRPC3 channel inhibitor) group, which were cultured in complete medium, medium containing 20 ng/ml VEGF recombinant protein, medium containing 20 ng/ml VEGF recombinant protein (si-TRPC3 transfection for 72 hours), and medium containing 20 ng/ml VEGF recombinant protein+ 1 μmol/L Pyr3 for 48 hours, respectively.The proliferation ability of HREC was detected using cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8). The horizontal and vertical migration ability of cells were detected by cell scratch assay and transwell assay, respectively.This study followed the 3R principles of animal welfare and was approved by the Ethics Committee of Hebei Eye Hospital (No.2023LW04). Results:Pathological neovascular clusters with strong fluorescent staining appeared in the retina of OIR mice on PN17.The relative expressions of TRPC3 mRNA and protein in the retina of OIR mice were 2.057±0.244 and 1.517±0.290, respectively, significantly higher than 0.983±0.033 and 0.874±0.052 of control group ( t=6.165, 3.094; both at P<0.05). The relative expression levels of TRPC3 mRNA and protein were significantly lower, and the relative expression levels of Nrf2 and SOD proteins were higher in the si-TRPC3 group than in the normal control and transfection reagent groups, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.05). The CCK-8 experiment results showed that the cell absorbance value was higher in the VEGF group than in the normal control group, and lower in the si-TRPC3 and Pyr3 groups than in the VEGF group, with statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05). The results of the cell scratch experiment showed that the lateral migration rate of VEGF group cells was higher than that of normal control group, while the lateral migration rate of si-TRPC3 group and Pyr3 group cells was lower than that of VEGF group, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.05). The transwell experiment results showed that the number of stained cells in the VEGF group was higher than that in the normal control group, and the number of stained cells in the si-TRPC3 group and Pyr3 group was lower than that in the VEGF group, with statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05). Conclusions:Hypoxia induces increased TRPC3 expression in OIR mouse retina, and downregulation of TRPC3 inhibits HREC proliferation and migration.The mechanism is related to the activation of the Nrf2-related oxidative stress pathway.

Objective To explore the mediating effect of positive coping styles on the relationship between resilience and vicarious trauma in nurses in Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Methods Nurses in ICU were recruited through convenience sampling and surveyed by the general information questionnaire, the Disaster Relief Vicarious Trauma Scale, the Resilience Scale, and the Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire. Results For the 242 nurses in ICU, the mean score of vicarious trauma was (85.02±19.54), the mean score of resilience was (65.47±16.37), and the mean scores of positive and negative coping styles were (25.10±6.52) and (13.65±5.29) respectively. Vicarious trauma was negatively correlated with resilience and positive coping styles (r=-0.49, -0.41, P < 0.01), while resilience was positively correlated with both positive and negative coping styles (r=0.62, 0.35, P < 0.01). Bootstrap test results showed that positive coping styles mediated 24.5% of the total effect between resilience and vicarious trauma. Conclusion Nurses in ICU have a high level of vicarious trauma, and their positive coping styles partially mediate the relationship between resilience and vicarious trauma. Clinical nursing managers should emphasize enhancing ICU nurses' resilience and positive coping abilities, implementing strategies to prevent vicarious trauma, and improving their physical and mental health.

This paper applied gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), network pharmacology and nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy (¹H NMR) metabolomics techniques to study the material basis and mechanism of action of Ning Shen Essential Oil in anti-insomnia. The main volatile components of Ning Shen Essential Oil were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and the insomnia-related targets were predicted using the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systematic Pharmacology Database and Analytical Platform (TCMSP) and the databases of GeneCards, OMIM and Drugbank. The insomnia model of rats was replicated by intraperitoneal injection of 4-chloro-DL-phenylalanine (PCPA). Animal experiments were approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (Ethics No.: SDUTCM20221025010). The modulating effect of Compound Ning Shen Essential Oil on anxiety behavior of rats was evaluated by behavioral related indexes. The serum levels of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), adrenotropic corticotropic hormone (ACTH) and melatonin (MT) were measured by enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA). Rat serum and hippocampus were taken for nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H NMR) metabolomics to detect the changes of endogenous metabolites in rat serum hippocampus, to designate the differential metabolites and to construct metabolic pathways. The results showed that the exercise distance in the open field experiment and the number of times and time to enter the open arm in the elevated cross maze experiment of the rats in the model group were significantly reduced (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). The behavioral indexes of rats improved to different degrees after the administration of Ning Shen Essential Oil. The serum CRH and ACTH levels of rats in the model group increased significantly (P < 0.05, P < 0.01), and the MT level decreased significantly (P < 0.01); After the intervention, serum CRH and ACTH levels were reduced to different degrees, and MT levels could be regressed. ¹H NMR metabolomics screened 10 potential biomarkers related to insomnia, which involved in 6 potential metabolic pathways. A total of 35 components of Ning Shen Essential Oil were detected by GC-MS, the main component targets of Ning Shen Essential Oil and insomnia disease targets were intersected, a total of 172 intersecting genes were screened, and 26 core targets were identified. The study demonstrated that Ning Shen Essential Oil had protective effects against PCPA-induced insomnia in rats, which was probably correlated with regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA) related hormones and metabolism of amino acids, lipids and choline.

Objective To investigate the role of necroptosis key genes in spinal cord injury using bioinformatics methods to provide new targets for the diagnosis and treatment of spinal cord injury.Methods The peripheral blood transcriptome data of spinal cord injury samples(n=38)and healthy control samples(n=10)were obtained from GSE151371 data set in Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database.R software was used to identify differentially expressed genes and perform functional enrichment analysis.Machine learning algorithms(random forest and LASSO)and protein-protein interaction(PPI)networks are used to screen for necroptosis key genes and construct a diagnostic nomogram for spinal cord injury.Establish a rat spinal cord injury model to further verify the expression of necroptosis key genes by Western blotting and immunofluorescence staining.Results A total of 2050 differentially expressed genes were identified in the two groups.KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that the differentially expressed genes were involved in the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain(NOD)-like receptor signaling pathway,hematopoietic cell lineage,and necroptosis;GO enrichment analysis showed that the differentially expressed genes were involved in the activation of leukocytes,tertiary granulation,and regulation of the defense response,and so on.Intersection analysis screened 15 necroptosis differentially expressed genes.KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that necroptosis differentially expressed genes were involved in necroptosis,influenza,and NOD-like receptor signaling pathways;GO enrichment analysis showed that necroptosis differentially expressed genes were significantly enriched in the cellular response to cytokine stimulation,cytokine-mediated signaling pathways,and response to cytokines.Integration of two machine learning algorithms and PPI analysis further screened two necroptosis key genes(IL1B and PLA2G4A).The nomogram established using IL1B and PLA2G4A can be used for early prediction of the occurrence of spinal cord injury.The validation results of the rat spinal cord injury model showed that the protein expression of IL-1β and PLA2G4A in the spinal cord injury group were significantly higher than those in the sham group(P<0.05).Conclusions IL1B and PLA2G4A as key genes of necroptosis involved in the development of spinal cord injury,can be used to predict the development of spinal cord injury with the promise of being new targets for the prevention and treatment of spinal cord injury.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effects of Ortho-Bridge system in the treatment of scapular fractures.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed for the 23 patients with scapular fracture who had been treated with Ortho-Bridge system and followed up completely at Department of Orthopedics, Suzhou Kowloon Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from May 2020 to May 2023. They were 19 males and 4 females with an age of (40.3±11.6) years. The modified Judet approach was adopted in 9 cases and minimally invasive approach in 14 cases in the surgery. The time from injury to surgery was 3.0 (0, 4.0) days. Related perioperative indicators were recorded, including surgery time, intraoperative bleeding, postoperative complications, and fracture healing time. Postoperatively, Constant shoulder score (CSS) and the quick disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand (quickDASH) were used to quantify the postoperative efficacy.Results:All the 23 patients were followed up for (30.1±12.0) months. The surgery time averaged (136.3±32.0) minutes and the intraoperative bleeding (178.3±50.3) mL. The rate of postoperative fracture healing was 100% (23/23), and the fracture healing time 4.0 (3.0, 4.0) months. After surgery, one patient developed superficial infection which was cured by oral antibiotics and dressing change. No other adverse complications occurred. The CSS of the shoulder at the last follow-up was (91.7±3.0) points. The quickDASH score of the upper limb function at the last follow-up averaged (10.4±3.6) points, giving an excellent to good rate of 91.3% (21/23).Conclusion:In the treatment of scapular fractures, internal fixation with Ortho-Bridge system can result in excellent clinical effects and a low incidence of postoperative complications, because it is simple to handle, limitedly traumatic, flexible and versatile in combination of internal fixation and very personalized.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for severe distal curve progression after posterior hemivertebra (HV) resection and short-segment fixation in patients with congenital cervicothoracic scoliosis (CTS), and to analyze the surgical revision strategy.Methods:Imaging and clinical data of patients who underwent posterior HV resection and short-segment fixation for CTS between August 2012 and August 2021 at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 55 patients were recruited, including 27 females and 28 males with an average age of 8.5±3.6 years (range 3-15 years) at surgery and an average Risser grade of 0.7±1.4 (range 0-4). The number of fused segments averaged 6.9±1.6 (range 4-10), and the mean follow-up was 38.7±18.9 months (range 9-94 months). According to the severity of distal curve progression, the recruited patients were divided into three groups: non-progression group (NPG), mild progression group (MPG), and severe progression group (SPG). The latter two groups were collectively called the progression group (PG). The cervicothoracic Cobb angle, T1 tilt angle, coronal balance distance (CBD), neck tilt angle, clavicular angle, head tilt angle, head shift, and upper (UIV) and lower instrument vertebra (LIV) tilt angle on the standing whole spine X-ray were measured before and after surgery and at the last follow-up. The correction rate of the Cobb angle in the osteotomy area was measured and calculated on CT three-dimensional reconstruction, and the proportion of patients with Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS) was recorded. Statistical analysis was conducted on the various parameters between the two groups. For factors with statistical significance in the single-factor analysis, binary logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the high-risk factors for distal curve progression.Results:There were 38 cases in the NPG, 11 in the MPG, and 6 in the SPG. Compared to the NPG, the PG showed more severe coronal imbalance preoperatively, with CBD of 35.6±22.3 mm and 11.6±7.1 mm respectively; more severe neck tilt and head shift, with neck tilt angle of 17.4°±8.3° and 12.4°±6.9° respectively, and head shift of 22.8±17.7 mm and 13.9±9.8 mm respectively; and a higher proportion of KFS, 65% (11/17) and 34% (13/38) respectively, all with statistical significance ( P<0.05). Postoperatively, the PG showed more severe coronal imbalance compared with the NPG, with 17.3±12.7 mm and 9.6±8.1 mm respectively; more evident residual deformity, with cervical tilt angles of 9.4°±4.6° and 6.4°±5.3° respectively, and head shift of 14.7±7.4 mm and 9.1±5.9 mm respectively; lower correction of Cobb angle in the apical osteotomy region, with rates of 40.1%±15.2% and 50.3%±19.9% respectively; more significant UIV and LIV tilt, with UIV tilt angles of 14.3°±7.4° and 9.8°±5.3° respectively, and LIV tilt angles of 8.1°±5.5° and 4.5°±3.6° respectively, all with statistical significance ( P<0.05). SPG showed only more severe coronal imbalance preoperatively compared with the MPG, with 50.7±31.3 mm and 27.3±9.6 mm respectively; and head shift, with 33.5±25.0 mm and 16.9±11.0 mm respectively, all with statistical significance ( P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis demonstrated a significant correlation between significant preoperative coronal imbalance and postoperative distal scoliosis progression [ OR=1.299, 95% CI (1.101, 1.531), P=0.002]. Five cases (83.3%) in SPG underwent revision surgery with an average follow-up of 25 months, and selecting the LIV down to the stable region was the major revision strategy. Conclusion:Combined KFS, residual cervicothoracic deformities, and tilting of UIV and LIV are key causes, whereas significant preoperative coronal imbalance is an independent risk factor predisposing to the distal curve progression.

Objective:To compare the clinical outcomes between three-column osteotomy and posterior-column osteotomy for correcting dystrophic kyphoscoliosis secondary to neurofibromatosis type 1 (DKS-NF1).Methods:ALL of 84 patients with DKS-NF1 were retrospectively analyzed, and the average age was 17.7±6.9 years. There were 50 cases with single curve, 18 cases with double curves, and 16 cases with triple curves; kyphosis was found in 42 cases in the thoracic area, 31 cases in the thoracolumbar area, and 11 cases in the lumbar area. The patients were divided into two groups: posterior column osteotomy group and three column osteotomy group based on surgical strategy. The radiographic parameters (including the magnitude of kyphosis, scoliosis, coronal balance distance, etc.) were compared between the two groups before and after surgery, and during the follow-up. The surgical efficacy was also compared based on the spinal correction and complications (such as cerebrospinal fluid leakage, pneumothorax, rod breakage, etc.).Results:The posterior column osteotomy group consisted of 74 patients and the column osteotomy group consisted of 10 patients. The age of patients in the posterior column osteotomy group was significantly younger than that in the three-column osteotomy group (15.8±4.8 years vs. 29.4±10.2 years, t=7.088, P<0.001), and the proportion of preoperative traction in this group was significantly higher than that in the three column osteotomy group (26/74 vs. 0, P=0.027). The apex of kyphosis in the three-column osteotomy group mainly located in the thoracolumbar and lumbar area, significantly higher than that in the posterior column osteotomy group (10/10 vs. 32/74, P=0.001). The magnitude of kyphosis in the two groups were 73.8°±20.9° and 63.1°±21.4° before surgery, respectively ( t=1.506, P=0.136). After surgery, they were corrected to 43.1°±20.9° and 21.1°±22.8°, respectively ( t=3.066, P=0.003), with correction rates of 43.7% ±19.6% and 84.1% ±78.7%, respectively ( t=3.677, P<0.001). At the last follow-up, they were maintained at 46.5°±20.9° and 24.6°±25.5°, respectively ( t=3.016, P=0.003). The Cobb angle of the main curve was corrected from preoperative 83.0°±29.0° and 66.3°±17.7° ( t=1.766, P=0.081) to postoperative 50.6°±20.8° and 40.8°±15.6° ( t=1.436, P=0.155), with correction rates of 38.3% ±16.6% and 39.3% ±12.7% ( t=0.191, P=0.849), respectively. At the last follow-up, they were maintained at 52.3°±20.5° and 43.1°±18.2°, respectively ( t=1.339, P=0.185). The proportion of multi-rod system application and screw density in three column osteotomy group was significantly higher than that in posterior column osteotomy group (8/10 vs. 20/74, P=0.002; 72.0% ±11.3% vs. 61.4% ±14.6%, t=2.173, P=0.033). The incidence of complications in the two groups was 12.2% (posterior column osteotomy group, 9/74) and 20% (three column osteotomy group, 2/10), respectively, with no statistically significant difference ( P=0.613). Conclusion:Three-column osteotomy is mainly used to treat adult kyphosis in DKS-NF1 patients. While the posterior column osteotomy methods were mainly applied in young patients. Most patients can achieve the purpose of deformity correction by posterior column osteotomy alone or combined with anterior complementary fusion. For patients with severe kyphosis, preoperative Halo gravity traction can help to further correct the intraoperative deformities.
