Piercing-sucking insects, such as whiteflies and aphids, cause massive economic losses in major crops around the world. During feeding, the stylets of piercing-sucking insects navigate cuticles, cell walls, epidermal cells, and mesophyll cells; thus, these barriers are vital for the resistance of plants to insects. However, the relationship between insect stylet probing behavior and the composition and structure of these barriers remains unclear.

Methods: The clinical data of 40 patients with acute acromioclavicular dislocation admitted from December 2019 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed and divided into two groups according to different surgical methods. Among them, 20 patients were fixed with single small incision with honeycomb titanium plate (titanium plate group), including 11 males and 9 females, aged from 23 to 65 years old with an average of (47.

Hymenoptera is an order accounting for a large proportion of species in Insecta, among which Chalcidoidea contains many parasitoid species of biocontrol significance. Currently, some species genomes in Chalcidoidea have been assembled, but the chromosome-level genomes of Aphelinidae are not yet available. Using Illumina, PacBio HiFi and Hi-C technologies, we assembled a genome assembly of Eretmocerus hayati (Aphelinidae, Hymenoptera), a worldwide biocontrol agent of whiteflies, at the chromosome level.

Recombination is common in plant viruses such as geminiviruses, but the ecological and pathogenic consequences have been explored only in a few cases. Here, we found that a new begomovirus, tomato yellow leaf curl Shuangbai virus (TYLCSbV), probably originated from the recombination of Ageratum yellow vein China virus (AYVCNV) and tobacco curl shoot virus (TbCSV). Agrobacterium-mediated inoculation showed that TYLCSbV and AYVCNV have similar levels of infectivity on tomato and tobacco plants.

However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the transmission of begomoviruses by their whitefly vector are not clear. In this study, we found that vesicle-associated membrane protein 2 (BtVAMP2) interacts with the coat protein (CP) of tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV), an emergent begomovirus that seriously impacts tomato production globally.

Methods: The clinical data of 70 elderly patients with hip fracture treated in our hospital from October 2017 to October 2019 were prospectively analyzed. According to different analgesic patterns, 35 cases were randomly divided into experimental group, aged 65 to 86(78.

The complete mitochondrial genome was determined for the whitefly (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), the first record from Chinese mainland. The mitochondrial genome is 16,687 bp in length and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNAs, and two ribosomal RNAs. The overall base composition is 33.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical value of accelerated rehabilitation in the treatment of intertrochanteric fracture of femur in the elderly.
Methods: Eighty elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures were selected from January 2016 to October 2018, and were divided into accelerated rehabilitation group and traditional rehabilitation group according to different treatment schemes, 40 cases in each group. There were 22 males and 18 females in accelerated rehabilitation group with an average age of (78.
Objective: To investigate the computer-assisted virtual reduction combined with 3D printing technique as preoperative planning and assess their therapeutic effects.
Methods: Thirty-five cases of acetabular fracture treated by internal fixation from March 2011 and March 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent operations with internal fixations implanted.

Objective: To summarize application of rafting K-wires technique for tibial plateau fractures.
Methods: From January 2013 to January 2015,45 patients with tibial plateau fractures were treated by locking plate with rafting K-wires, including 33 males and 12 females with an average of 44.2 years old ranging from 22 to 56 years old.
The role of oxidative stress in skeletal health is unclear. The present study investigated whether a high dietary intake of antioxidant nutrients (vitamins C and E, β-carotene, animal-derived vitamin A, retinol equivalents, Zn and Se) is associated with a reduced risk of hip fracture in elderly Chinese. This 1:1 matched case-control study involved 726 elderly Chinese with hip fracture and 726 control subjects, recruited between June 2009 and May 2013.
