Objective: The aim of this study is to explore the potential mixed reality (MR) technology in visualization orthopedic surgery. Methods: system with MR widely used composed a 3D imaging workstation, cloud platform, and an space station. An intelligent segmentation algorithm adopted on workstation create anatomical model zooming rotation effects. This then exploited for efficient reconstruction data computerized tomography (CT) magnetic resonance (MRI). Additionally, can be uploaded platform...
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is the primary culprit of low back pain and renders heavy social burden worldwide. Pyroptosis a newly discovered form programmed cell death, which also involved in nucleus pulposus (NP) cells during IDD progression. Moderate autophagy activity critical for NP survival, but its relationship with pyroptosis remains unknown. This study aimed at investigating between pyroptotic death. The executor N-terminal domain gasdermin D (GSDMD-N) inflammation-related...
A variety of novel drugs and advanced therapeutic strategies have been developed for diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs); however, the clinical outcomes are unsatisfactory underlying mechanisms DFU remain elusive. MicroRNAs (miRNA) regulate pathological processes many diseases. Fibroblasts involved in each stage wound healing, functions fibroblasts may be regulated by miRNAs. In present study, we found that levels miRNA-21-3p (miR-21-3p) were decreased patients with diabetes as compared those...
Purpose: To investigate the effects of nicotine on retinal alterations in early-stage diabetes an established rodent model.Materials and Methods: Sprague–Dawley rats were examined using a combination confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy spectral domain optical coherence tomography to determine changes structure response exposure, combined diabetes. Diabetes was induced by single injection 65 mg/kg streptozotocin injections administered subcutaneously daily. Retinal thickness superior,...
The mixed reality (MR) technique has recently been widely used in the orthopedic surgery with satisfactory results reported. However, few studies have focused on application of MR Lumbar fracture (LF). In this retrospective study, our aim is to analyze some findings by investigating feasibility applied lumbar treatment. Posterior vertebrectomy operated 7 patients. MR–based intraoperative three-dimensional image-guided navigation system (MITINS) was assist implantation pedicle screws. and...

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an important treatment for inoperable hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HCC). The aim of the present study as to evaluate clinical value three-dimensional visualization (3DV) and 3D printing (3DP) technologies ERCP in patients with HCC. data 15 HCC admitted were analyzed retrospectively, including 9 males 6 females. Thin-sliced computed tomography magnetic resonance (MRCP) acquired imported into Mimics Innovation Suite v17.0 software...
The effect of unilateral and bilateral bone-filling mesh containers (BFC) on osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) was analyzed by the finite element method. CT scan data T12-L2 body were obtained from a healthy female volunteer with no history lumbar spine injury or obvious abnormality morphology. normal model osteoporosis established, models validated. L1 in used to simulate fracture, after which BFC simulated establish representing two surgical approaches. We changes...
This study aimed to evaluate the safety and accuracy of mixed reality-based intraoperative three-dimensional navigated pedicle screws in printed model fractured upper cervical spine. A total 27 from patients spine fractures formed group. All C1 C2 were inserted under image-guided navigation system. The screw placement evaluated on basis postoperative computerized tomography scans. 108 properly into models navigation, including 54 screws. Analysis dimensional parameters each at C1/C2 level...
Cervical transarticular fixation is a technically demanding procedure. This study aimed to develop safer and more accurate method for C1/2 pedicle screw placement using three-dimensional printed drilling guide. A total of 20 patients with fractures dislocations were recruited, their computed tomography scans evaluated. Under the assistance guide, bilateral screws successfully placed in models. Then, sagittal axial obtained, accuracy safety evaluated based on X-Y-Z axis setup. The average...
Abstract Pits are the main transverse channels of intercellular liquid transport in bamboo. Ramiform pits a special type simple pit with two or more branches. However, little is known about morphology and physiological functions ramiform pits. The anatomy plants can provide important evidence for role cells. To better understand ultrastructure structure-function relationship pits, their characteristics need to be investigated. In this study, both qualitative quantitative features were...
We aimed to evaluate the advantages of preoperative digital design skin flaps repair fingertip defects during COVID-19 pandemic. combined with a 3D-printed model affected finger for communication defect patients under observation in buffer ward.From December 2019 January 2021, we obtained data from 25 cases 30 15 males and 10 females, aged 20-65 years old (mean 35 ± 5 years). All were treated by digitally designing model. Preoperative 3D Systems Sense scanning was routinely performed,...
Purpose: Recent evidence shows that macular damage is common even in early stages of glaucoma. Here we investigated whether contrast sensitivity loss the central vision glaucoma patients due to an increase equivalent input noise (Neq), a decrease calculation efficiency, or both. We also examined how retinal undersampling resulting from ganglion cells (RGCs) may affect Neq and efficiency. Methods: This study included 21 23 age-matched normally sighted individuals. Threshold for orientation...
