女性致密性骨炎血清骨转换生化标志物水平变化研究

背景 致密性骨炎（OCI）和其他疾病有时难以鉴别，探讨血清骨转换生化标志物可为OCI的鉴别诊断提供依据。 目的 探索女性OCI患者的血清骨转换生化标志物的水平变化及临床意义。 方法 回顾性选取2013年6月至2022年2月在北京积水潭医院门诊及住院诊断为OCI的61例女性患者作为观察组，年龄15~50岁，平均（33.8±6.6）岁，病程2周~15年。选择同期61例女性体检健康者作为对照组，年龄15~48岁，平均（35.6±7.6）岁。比较两组一般临床资料和血清骨转换生化标志物水平，并对血清骨转换生化标志物与病情相关指标进行相关性分析。 结果 观察组血清白蛋白（45.4±2.9）g/L低于对照组（46.5±2.8）g/L（t=2.190，P<0.05）。血清骨转换生化标志物比较结果显示，观察组血清1型胶原羧基末端肽β特殊序列（β-CTX）〔0.28（0.23，0.37）μg/L〕、N-端骨钙素（OC）〔13.1（11.2，16.2）μg/L〕、25-羟维生素D3〔25-（OH）VD3〕〔（14.1±5.1）μg/L〕低于对照组〔0.36（0.29，0.48）μg/L，15.6（13.7，17.3）μg/L，（17.5±6.6）μg/L〕（Z=-2.983、-3.255，t=3.081，P<0.05）。长病程亚组OC水平〔14.6（12.4，18.5）μg/L〕高于短病程亚组〔11.7（10.2，14.0）μg/L〕（Z=-2.407，P<0.05）。多孕亚组β-CTX〔0.25（0.22，0.32）μg/L〕、OC水平〔12.2（10.3，15.0）μg/L〕低于非多孕亚组〔0.33（0.26，0.44）μg/L、13.4（12.0，18.8）μg/L〕（Z=-2.486、-1.897，P<0.05）。相关性分析显示，观察组血清1型前胶原氨基端延长肽（tP1NP）与妊娠次数、生产次数均呈负相关（rs=-0.276、-0.298，P<0.05），OC与体质指数（BMI）、视觉模拟评分法（VAS）评分、妊娠次数均呈负相关（rs=-0.284、-0.374、-0.360，P<0.05），25-（OH）VD3水平与BMI呈正相关（rs=0.275，P<0.05）。 结论 女性OCI患者血清OC、β-CTX水平明显降低，可为鉴别其他疾病提供依据；血清OC水平可以反映OCI患者的严重程度，同时OC水平与患者妊娠次数相关；tP1NP与妊娠次数、生产次数相关。

Return to sport and beyond following intramuscular tendon hamstring injury: A case report of an English Premier League football player

BackgroundHamstring strain injuries are the most common type of injury in elite football and are associated with a high risk of reinjury, particularly those involving the intramuscular tendon (IMT). Limited information is available regarding the rehabilitation and return to sport (RTS) processes following such injuries. This case study describes the clinical presentation of an elite football player following IMT hamstring injury, their on- and off-pitch rehabilitation alongside performance monitoring throughout RTS and beyond.Case scenarioAn elite football player suffered a grade 2c hamstring injury during an English Premier League (EPL) match. The player underwent early post-injury management, alongside progressive off-pitch physical preparation. The ‘control-chaos continuum’ was used as a framework for on-pitch rehabilitation to prepare the player for a return to full team training and competition. Objective and subjective markers of the player's response to progressive on- and off-pitch loading were monitored throughout RTS and beyond.OutcomesThe player returned to on-pitch rehabilitation after 11 days, to full team training having achieved weekly pre-injury chronic running load outputs after 35 days and played in the EPL 40 days post-injury. The player did not suffer reinjury for the rest of the EPL season.ConclusionAn understanding the unique structural and mechanical properties of the IMT, alongside expected RTS timeframes are important to inform rehabilitation and decision-making processes post-injury. Performance and frequent load-response monitoring throughout RTS and beyond, in conjunction with practitioner experience and effective communication are critical in facilitating effective RTS and reduce risk of reinjury following IMT injury.     

Resiniferatoxin reduces cardiac sympathetic nerve activation to exert a cardioprotective effect during myocardial infarction

Background and objective: Myocardial infarction (MI) is a common critical disease of the cardiovascular system. The process of MI is often accompanied by the excessive activation of cardiac sympathetic nerves, which leads to arrhythmia. Resiniferatoxin (RTX) is a transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), involved in the cardiac sympathetic afferent reflex. However, whether RTX can reduce the occurrence of arrhythmia and exert a cardioprotective effect by inhibiting the sympathetic reflex during MI is still unknown. Methods: The left anterior descending artery of cardiac was clamped to construct a model of MI. RTX (50 μg/ml) was used by epicardial application in MI rats. Ventricular electrophysiologic properties were continuously monitored by a body surface ECG. Yrosine hydroxylase (TH) and growth associated protein 43 (GAP43) were detected by Immunofluorescence staining. Connexin43 and transforming growth factor beta receptor 1 (TGF-β1) were detected by western blot. Norepinephrine (NE) and BNP levels in blood and tissue were determined by ELISA. Cardiac function was assessed by echocardiography. Results: The ERP, APD90, QRS, QT and the Tend-Tpeak intervals in MI rats were all prolonged, but decreased after RTX treatment (n = 3, P<0.05). In contrast, the RR interval was shortened in the MI group, but prolonged in the MI+RTX group (n = 3, P<0.05). RTX treatment significantly reduced ventricular arrhythmias after MI. TH- and GAP43-positive nerve densities and TGF-β1, and cx-43 protein expression were up-regulated in the MI group compared to the sham group, and they were decreased in the MI+RTX group compared to the MI group (n = 3, P<0.05). RTX can decrease serum and tissue NE and BNP levels (n = 3, P<0.05). RTX pretreatment significantly decreased heart rate, HW/BW ratio and LVIDS, and increased LVEF andLVFS values (n = 3, P<0.05). Conclusion: RTX improved cardiac dysfunction, ventricular electrophysiologic properties, and sympathetic nerve remodeling in rats with MI by inhibiting the excessive cardiac sympathetic drive.
