The choice of the implantation affects the bone fusion directly, furthermore, it affects the effectiveness of cervical tuberculosis, the development of new implantation provides a variety of options for the treatment of cervical tuberculosis.

To summarize the diagnosis and treatment of fibular fracture in ankle fracture.

Relevant literature at home and abroad in recent years was widely consulted, and various types of fractures were discussed and summarized according to Danis-Weber classification.

Conservative treatment is not an ideal treatment for type A avulsion fracture. The operation method should be determined according to the position and size of bone mass. For simple type B fracture, both conservative treatment and surgical treatment can achieve good results. When the position of type C fracture is high and does not affect the stability of ankle joint, it can be treated conservatively, while when the position is low and affects the stability of ankle joint, it needs surgical treatment.

First of all, whether the fibular fracture in the ankle fracture is stable or not should be determined. Whether it is treated surgically or not, the purpose is to restore the tibiofibular syndesmosis and restore the motor function of the ankle.

To review the research progress of surgical methods of osteotomy around the knee in the treatment of valgus knee osteoarthritis.

The relevant literature on the surgical treatment of valgus knee osteoarthritis at home and abroad in recent years was reviewed, and the advantages, disadvantages, and effectiveness of different surgical methods of osteotomy around the knee were summarized.

For young and active patients with symptomatic valgus knee osteoarthritis, osteotomy around the knee is a safe and reliable treatment option. At present, the main surgical methods include medial closing wedge distal femoral osteotomy, lateral opening wedge distal femoral osteotomy, medial closing wedge high tibial osteotomy, and lateral opening wedge high tibial osteotomy. The indications, advantages, and disadvantages of different osteotomies are different, and the selection of appropriate surgical method is the key to achieve good effectiveness.

There are many osteotomies in the treatment of valgus knee osteoarthritis. In order to achieve good results, improve survival rate, and reduce postoperative complications, the most reasonable surgical strategy needs to be developed according to different situations.

To investigate the role and regulatory mechanism of ring finger protein 11 (RNF11) on Akt signaling pathway in the process of osteogenesis of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) to provide ideas for further clarifying its osteogenesis mechanism and its use in clinical treatment in the future.

BMSCs were isolated and cultured from fresh bone marrow of healthy donors and subcultured. The 4th generation cells were used in experiments after identification by flow cytometry, and osteogenic, chondrogenic, and adipogenic induction. BMSCs were cultured in osteogenic differentiation medium for 0-14 days. The degree of osteogenic differentiation was detected by Alizarin red staining and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, and the protein expression of RNF11 was detected by Western blot. The 4th generation BMSCs were divided into blank control group (group A), empty lentivirus (Lv-NC) group (group B), and knockdown RNF11 (Lv-ShRNF11) group (group C). Osteogenesis was induced and cultured for 0-14 days. The ebe used as a potential target to improve the bone repair efficacy of BMSCs and treat bone metabolic diseases.

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the leading cause of kidney failure worldwide. To explore the pathogenesis and effective biological target of DN is beneficial to seeking novel treatment strategies.

This study aimed to investigate the role of the lncRNA Dlx6os1/SOX6/EZH2 axis in DN progression.

PAS staining was performed to evaluate extracellular matrix accumulation; ELISA was carried out to assess the levels of urine microalbumin and blood glucose concentration; RT-qPCR was carried out to detect the levels of lncRNA Dlx6os1, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, SOX6, and EZH2. Western blot was performed to assess the levels of Col-IV, FN, TGF-β1, and SOX6 proteins. RIP assay was carried out to verify the interaction between lncRNA Dlx6os1 and EZH2. ChIP-qPCR was conducted to verify the interaction between EZH2 and SOX6 promoter.

Our results illustrated that lncRNA Dlx6os1 was highly expressed in DN mice and HG-induced SV40 MES13 cells. LncRNA Dlx6os1 knockdown inhibited HG-induced SV40 MES13 cell proliferation, fibrosis, and inflammatory cytokine release. LncRNA Dlx6os1 inhibited SOX6 expression by recruiting EZH2 in HG-SV40 MES13 cells, and SOX6 mediated the effects of lncRNA Dlx6os1 on proliferation, fibrosis, and inflammatory factor release of HG-induced SV40 MES13 cells.

LncRNA Dlx6os1 accelerates the progression of DN by epigenetically repressing SOX6 via recruiting EZH2.

Diabetic nephropathy is a common complication of the kidneys induced by diabetes and is the main cause of end-stage renal disease. MicroRNA-494-3p was reported to be upregulated in renal tissues collected from db/db mice, but its specific role in diabetic nephropathy was still unclear. This study aimed to explore the effect of miR-494-3p on renal fibrosis using an in vitro cell model of diabetic nephropathy.

After human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2) were treated with high glucose (HG), the viability and apoptosis of cells were examined by CCK-8 assays and flow cytometry analyses. Additionally, protein levels of fibronectin, collagen I, collagen III, collagen IV, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers in HG-induced HK-2 cells were quantified by Western blotting. miR-494-3p expression in HK-2 cells was detected by reverse-transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The binding relation between miR-494-3p and the messenger RNA suppressor of cytokine signaling 6 (SOCS6) was detected by luciferase reporter assays.

HG reduced cell viability and enhanced cell apoptosis in a time- or concentration-dependent manner. Additionally, HG induced collagen accumulation and triggered the EMT process. miR-494-3p was upregulated in HG-treated HK-2 cells. miR-494-3p inhibition alleviated HG-induced cell dysfunction. Mechanistically, miR-494-3p bound with SOCS6 and negatively regulated SOCS6 expression. Moreover, silencing SOCS6 rescued the suppressive effect of miR-499-5p inhibition on HG-induced cell dysfunction.

miR-494-3p aggravates renal fibrosis, EMT process, and cell apoptosis by targeting SOCS6, suggesting that the miR-494-3p/SOCS6 axis may become a potential strategy for the treatment of diabetic nephropathy.

Recent studies have shown heterogeneous mutational profiles in this group being able to subclassify them into entities closely related to the more well-established disorders under the umbrella term of the MDS/MPN group. Recurrent cytogenetic alterations are, nonetheless, rare in MDS/MPN-U. Here, for the first time, we report a case of MDS/MPN-U with a t(X;17)(q28;q21) chromosomal rearrangement leading to the KANSL1-MTCP1 fusion gene.

COVID-19 has had a great impact on mental health in the general population. However, few studies have focused on patients with substance use disorders (SUDs). This research aimed to compare the clinical status and substance use patterns of SUD outpatients, before and during confinement due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

This multicentre study recruited 588 patients (29.2% women; M age = 47.4 ± 11.7 years) in thirteen centres for addiction treatment in Catalonia, Spain. All subjects were evaluated with validated instruments and ad hoc questionnaires. The sample was divided into 3 groups according to how the substance consumption pattern changed during lockdown (maintained pattern, worsened pattern, and improved pattern).

More than 62% of the patients maintained or worsened their consumption pattern during confinement, and about 38% improved throughout this time. Diverse factors were associated with the changes in pattern like age, addiction severity, psychological distress during lockdown, social and familial issues, and therapeutic variables.

The home lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic was associated with major implications for substance consumption and psychiatric distress among SUD outpatients. Considering this, the need to plan appropriate interventions in cases of similar health crises is highlighted.

Only in 7-15% of patients with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), traumatic CT-abnormalities are found. Nevertheless, 40% of mTBI patients suffer from posttraumatic complaints not resolving after 6 months. We discuss the ability of susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI), sensitive for microbleeds, to detect more subtle brain abnormalities.

After a search on PubMed, we selected 15 studies on SWI in adult mTBI patients; 11 studies on 3T MRI, and 4 studies on 1.5T MRI. All 1.5T studies showed that, compared to T2, gradient echo, diffusion-weighted imaging, or fluid-attenuated inversion recovery sequences, SWI is more sensitive for microbleeds. Only two 1.5T studies described the association between SWI findings and outcome. In 3 of the 4 studies, no control group was present. The mean number of microbleeds varied from 3.2 to 6.4 per patient. In the 3T studies, the percentage of patients with traumatic microbleeds varied from 5.7 to 28.8%, compared to 0-13.3% in normal controls. Microbleeds were particularly located subcortical or juxtacortical. The number of microbleeds in mTBI varied from 1 to 10 per patient. mTBI patients with microbleeds appeared to have higher symptom severity at 12 months and perform worse on tests of psychomotor speed and speed of information processing after 3 and 12 months, compared to mTBI patients without microbleeds.

There is some evidence that traumatic microbleeds predict cognitive outcome and persistent posttraumatic complaints in patients with mTBI.
