Evaluating Docking Site Local Hematoma Formation and Blood Flow on its Healing Using the Accordion Technique at the End of Tibial Bone Transport.

Objective: At present, due to the lack of early observation methods, the effect of the 'accordion' technique on the treatment of nonunion of the docking site varies greatly. In this study, color Doppler ultrasound was used to observe the docking site's local changes and investigate the relationship between local microenvironment changes and bone healing after the accordion technique.

Methods: 30 patients with tibial bone transport treated at the Department of Orthopedics, Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University, from May 2018 to June 2022, were analyzed retrospectively.

Microglia are necessary for probiotics supplementation to improve impaired fear extinction caused by pregnancy stress in adult offspring of rats.

The prevention and treatment of fear-related disorders in offspring affected by pregnancy stress remains challenging at clinic. Here, we examined the effects of gut microbiota of stressed pregnant rats on the fear extinction of their offsprings, and the potential mechanisms. We found that gut microbiota transplantation from rats with pregnancy stress to normal pregnant rats impaired fear extinction, induced microglial activation and synaptic phagocytosis, increased synapse loss in offsprings.

The Application of MicroRNAs in Glaucoma Research: A Bibliometric and Visualized Analysis.

Glaucoma is similar to a neurodegenerative disorder and leads to global irreversible loss of vision. Despite extensive research, the pathophysiological mechanisms of glaucoma remain unclear, and no complete cure has yet been identified for glaucoma. Recent studies have shown that microRNAs can serve as diagnostic biomarkers or therapeutic targets for glaucoma; however, there are few bibliometric studies that focus on using microRNAs in glaucoma research.

Insulin reverses impaired alveolar fluid clearance in ARDS by inhibiting LPS-induced autophagy and inflammatory.

Until now, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has been a difficult clinical condition with a high mortality and morbidity rate, and is characterized by a build-up of alveolar fluid and impaired clearance. The underlying mechanism is not yet fully understood and no effective medications available. Autophagy activation is associated with ARDS caused by different pathogenic factors.

Cell cycle kinases (AUKA, CDK1, PLK1) are prognostic biomarkers and correlated with tumor-infiltrating leukocytes in HBV related HCC.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the high incidence cancers and third leading cause of cancer-related mortality. HBV is the top most risk factor accounting for 50-80% of the HCC cases. Kinases: Aurora kinase A (AURKA), cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK1) and Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1), the key regulators of cell mitosis are overexpressed in varieties of cancers including HCC.

[Effect of Gegen Qinlian Decoction on gut microbiota of irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea rats].

This study aims to explore the effect of Gegen Qinlian Decoction on gut microbiota of irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea(IBS-D) rats. A total of 36 male SD rats were randomly classified into the control group, model group, rifaximin group(150 mg·kg~(-1)), and high-dose(8.125 g·kg~(-1)), medium-dose(4.

Autophagy in glaucoma pathogenesis: Therapeutic potential and future perspectives.

Glaucoma is a common blinding eye disease characterized by progressive loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and their axons, progressive loss of visual field, and optic nerve atrophy. Autophagy plays a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of glaucoma and is closely related to its pathogenesis. Targeting autophagy and blocking the apoptosis of RGCs provides emerging guidance for the treatment of glaucoma.

[Design and application of spectacle frame for eye moxibustion].

The new style spectacle frame for eye moxibustion is designed, which is characterized by adjustable direction, constant temperature and smoke absorption. Combined with mechanical structure design and physical and chemical technology, a new style of moxibustion spectacle frame is designed by means of spring mechanism, damping bearing, filter cotton, etc. The moxibustion spectacle frame includes the right and left eye frames, spectacle legs, nose mask, eye mask, slide rod, screw rod, spring structure, damping bearing, support rod and pin.
