Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates a simplified surgical method, modified posterior osteotomy, to treat elderly patients with osteoporotic vertebral collapse and delayed neurological dysfunction, aiming to improve clinical outcomes.
  • - A total of 12 patients with an average age of 65.5 years participated, and metrics such as pain levels and disability were significantly improved post-surgery, with a notable decrease in the visual analogue scale (VAS) score and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI).
  • - Results indicate that while the procedure had a significant average operative time of 3.7 hours and blood loss of approximately 483.3 ml, the overall clinical efficacy and safety of the modified technique showed promising outcomes for this patient demographic.

The unique pharmaceutical methods for the processing of botanical drugs according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) affect clinical syndrome differentiation and treatment. The objective of this study was to comprehensively elucidate the principles and mechanisms of an herbal processing method by investigating the alterations in the metabolites of Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae (AMR) processed by Aurantii Fructus Immaturus (AFI) decoction and to determine how these changes enhance the efficacy of aqueous extracts in treating functional dyspepsia (FD). A qualitative analysis of AMR before and after processing was conducted using UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS, and HPLC was employed for quantitative analysis.

Article Synopsis
  • - Plasmacytoma is a rare condition involving plasma cell growth in bones or soft tissues, with types including solitary bone and extramedullary plasmacytomas; it can occur alongside chronic conditions like osteomyelitis.
  • - A 47-year-old man with a history of chronic osteomyelitis experienced ulceration in his tibia, leading to imaging tests that revealed dead bone and inflammation, prompting surgical intervention.
  • - Post-surgery, the diagnosis was confirmed as plasmacytoma, and the patient received successful radiotherapy; this case emphasizes the need for careful monitoring of chronic osteomyelitis for possible plasmacytoma development.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) as a treatment for severe wounds with exposed tendons, addressing a significant clinical issue in wound healing.
  • A total of 12 patients with refractory wounds were treated with PRP injections following debridement, showing a healing time of about 23 days and significant improvements in scar assessment scores.
  • Results indicated that PRP therapy not only sped up healing and reduced inflammation but also improved tissue quality, with high patient satisfaction reported during follow-up.

Background: No review or meta-analysis exists to elucidate the efficacy and safety of quadratus lumborum block (QLB) on the pain intensity, opioid requirement, and mobilization in patients undergoing hip surgery. This systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials were designed to compare QLB with no block or placebo (without other nerve/plexus blocks) for patients undergoing hip surgery.

Methods: Two individual researchers conducted the platform searches on the PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases from inception to June 12, 2021.

Ziziphi Spinosae Semen (ZSS) is a common natural medicine used to treat insomnia, and to show clearly its method of action, we managed and did an in-depth discussion. Network pharmacology research is very suitable for the analysis of multiple components, multiple targets, and multiple pathways of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). According to the relevant theory, we first carefully collected and screened the active ingredients in ZSS and received 11 active ingredients that may work.

According to the treatment records of Yang deficiency syndrome (YDS) with characteristic decoction pieces of lateral root of -Yinfupian (YF) in traditional Chinese medicine prepare school, known as "Jianchangbang". The aim of this study was to investigate differences in the composition and therapeutic mechanism of the unprocessed lateral root of (ULRA) and its processed product (YF). Ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis method were used to determine and screen the main components of ULRA and YF.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between the cardiotonic activity of Fuzi (Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata, RALP) and its fingerprint determined by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS).

Methods: First, the fingerprints of six processed products of RALP were established by high performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-Q-TOF-MS) followed by analysis of the principal component of the relative peak area of its common peaks. Next, the scores of the first five principal components were used as input for an artificial neural network (ANN).

Article Synopsis
  • A 22-year-old man suffered a comminuted patellar fracture after a traffic accident, which made it difficult to repair due to the complexity of the fracture.
  • The treatment involved using multiple 3D-printed guide plates to assist in the reduction and fixation of the fracture.
  • Over a 2-year follow-up, the patient experienced good recovery without significant limitations in knee function, highlighting the effectiveness of this innovative technique in surgical treatment.

Article Synopsis
  • Circular RNAs (circRNAs) like circ_0000285 play a significant role in the progression of diseases, including osteosarcoma (OS), but their functions are not completely understood.
  • Researchers found that circ_0000285 expression was higher in OS tissues and that knocking it down can reduce OS growth through various assays.
  • The study revealed that circ_0000285 influences OS cell behavior by interacting with miR-409-3p and the protein IGFBP3, suggesting that targeting circ_0000285 could be a therapeutic strategy for OS.

Primitive neuroectodermal tumours (PNETs) are rare malignant small round cell tumours. Notably, despite widespread reports of PNET in multiple parts of the body, it is extremely rare in the pelvis. Here, a rare case of giant PNET of the pelvis, that was treated with surgical intervention comprising hemipelvectomy and amputation, is reported.
