A field experiment was systematically conducted, using Illumina MiSeq high-throughput sequencing, to analyze the impact of four different fertilizer application regimes (CK, no fertilization; CF, conventional chemical fertilizer; OF, organic fertilizer; MF, organic-inorganic mixed fertilizer) on the soil physicochemical properties, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), microbial biomass phosphorus (MBP), and phoD (gene encoding alkaline phosphatase) microbial community in 0-20cm soil layer at cauliflower harvest season, thus identifying the underlying mechanism of effects of different fertilization regimes on the structure and diversity of phoD microbe under integrated planting and breeding system in vegetable field. The results showed that: (1) compared to CK, OF significantly increased the contents of soil organic matter, total nitrogen, available phosphorus and Ca by 47.83%, 38.46%, 104.81% and 69.21%, respectively (P<0.05); both OF and MF significantly increased ALP activity. The MBP content in CF and OF was improved by 56.12% and 195.16%, respectively, compared with CK; the MBP content in OF was the highest (105.40mg·kg-1). (2) Pseudomonas was the dominant genus under different fertilization treatments. CF and MF significantly reduced the relative abundance of Pseudomonas by 33.39% and 45.52%, respectively, compared with CK. Fertilization decreased the Chao1 index, and MF increased both the diversity (Simpson index) and evenness (Simpsoneven index) of soil phoD microorganisms. (3) MBP, AP, and ALP were the key environmental factors affecting the phoD microbial community structure. There was no significant correlation between phoD microbial α diversity indexes and soil properties. Therefore, under the integrated planting and breeding system in vegetable field, different fertilization treatments changed soil physicochemical and biological properties, and thus drove the changes of composition, structure and diversity of soil phoD microbial community.

We analyzed the particle size distribution of soil aggregates in 0-20 and 20-40 cm soil layers of rice-wheat rotation field based on a field plot test with two treatments, conventional straw returning (CK) and straw returning with the addition of straw decomposition promoting microbial inoculants (IT). We evaluated the water stability indices of soil aggregates (the number of soil water stable large aggregates R 0.25 , the average weight diameter MWD, and the geometric average diameter GMD), and measured the contents of soil organic carbon (SOC), total nitrogen (TN), and total phosphorus (TP) in the soil aggregates of ＜0.053, 0.053-0.25, 0.25-1, ＞1 mm. The results showed that: 1) The number of aggregates ＜0.053, 0.053-0.25, ＞0.25 mm in the 0-20 and 20-40 cm soil layers under IT decreased by 10.0% and 6.8%, increased by 3.0% and 5.7%, and 17.9% and 26.1% compared with CK, respectively. IT effectively increased R 0.25 , MWD, and GMD by 26.4%, 20.0%, 18.2% and 18.2%, 10.5%, 10.0% in 0-20 and 20-40 cm soil, respectively. 2) Compared to CK, the TP content of 0.25-1 mm aggregates in 0-20 and 20-40 cm soil under IT was significantly increased by 40.3% and 37.5%, respectively, without difference in TN and SOC contents. There was no significant difference in nutrient contents of the other aggregates between the treatments. The contents of SOC and TN in large aggregates (>0.25 mm) were higher than those in silty aggregates (<0.053 mm). Compared to CK, the cumulative contribution rates of SOC, TN and TP of <0.053 mm aggregates under IT were decreased in two soil layers. There was no significant difference in the nutrient cumulative contribution rates of 0.053-0.25 mm aggregates between treatments. The cumulative contribution rates of SOC, TN, and TP of large aggregates (>0.25 mm) under IT were 32.1%, 19.6%, 52.8% and 22.8%, 11.8%, 42.9% higher than those under CK in 0-20 and 20-40 cm soils, respectively. 3) The number of <0.053 mm aggregates was significantly negatively correlated with SOC and TP contents, while that of 0.053-0.25 mm aggregates was negatively correlated with nutrient content. The number of large aggregates (>0.25 mm) were significantly positively correlated with SOC, TN, and TP contents. In conclusion, straw returning with microbial-inoculant addition could promote the formation of soil macroaggregates (>0.25 mm), and improve the water stability of soil aggregates, increasing nutrient contents in soil macroaggregates, with the nutrients transferring from silty aggregates to macroaggregates.

Objective: To explore the effect of personalized digital analog assisted acetabular prosthesis precise implantation in hip dysplasia., Methods: From February 2017 to July 2019, 11 patients(12 hips) with hip dysplasia underwent total hip arthroplasty, including 4 males(5 hips) and 7 females(7 hips), aged from 27 to 61 years old, with an average of (46.64±12.93) years old;Crowe classification:8 hips in typeⅠ and 4 hips in typeⅡ. The preoperative thin-layer CT scan was imported into Mimics 10.01 software. The appropriate size and placement angle of acetabular prosthesis were selected through preoperative simulation, and the acetabular bone defect was understood to determine whether structural bone grafting was needed during the operation. The length of both lower limbs, the anteversion angle of acetabular prosthesis, the abduction angle, the height of acetabular rotation center and the horizontal distance of hip joint center before and after the operation were measured, and the postoperative dislocation, bone graft healing and acetabular cup loosening were observed. The hip Harris score was used to evaluate the joint function., Results: All patients were followed up for 18 to 30 months with an average of (23.45±3.70) months. There was no prosthesis dislocation, loosening and bone graft healing after operation. One case had numbness in the innervation area due to the traction of sciatic nerve during operation, and was treated with neurotrophic drugs and recovered one month after operation. The length difference of both lower limbs decreased from (31.73±5.98) mm before operation to (4.73±1.90) mm 3 months after operation ( t =15.268, P <0.01). The anteversion angle of acetabular cup and acetabulum was (17.45±3.62)°and abduction angle was (40.10 ± 2.30)° after operation. In all cases, the abduction angle and anteversion angle were within the safe range of Lewinek. The height of hip rotation center was (20.64±2.58) mm and the horizontal inward displacement of hip was (33.46±3.61) mm. Harris score increased from (45.36±2.34) before operation to (91.27±2.37) 3 months after operation ( P <0.05)., Conclusion: Through preoperative personalized digital analog reconstruction of acetabulum in patients with hip dysplasia, we can better understand the acetabular defect, help to evaluate the size and placement angle of acetabular prosthesis and whether structural bone grafting is needed, and obtain satisfactory clinical curative effect.

This paper reports a case of a 28-year-old male patient with mandibular fibular graft. The patient underwent dental implant surgery. The left portion of the patient's mandible was resected because of ameloblastoma and restored by vascularized fibular grafting. Four implants were implanted in the fibular graft area after 2 years, and the area was restored with a pure titanium casting rod, Locator abutment, and overdenture. This case provides a feasible solution for the restoration of a fibular graft with a dental implant. The characteristics of the restoration method are described. We hope to improve the quality of life of patients with fibular grafts.

Objective: To compare five selective media to isolate human Bifidobacterium., Methods: Feces from six healthy human volunteers were diluted and cultivated on five Bifidobacterium selective media. After anaerobic cultivation, bacterial colonies were counted, selected and identified. Meanwhile, bacterial genomic DNA was extracted from the feces samples, and the Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (DGGE) and Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (q-PCR) were applied to reveal the diversity of Bifidobacterium., Results: The amount of Bifidobacterium grown on BSM and BLM media was similar to the result detected by q-PCR and was significantly higher than that on three other media. Bifidobacterium isolated from BLM medium was similar to the identified result of DGGE profile., Conclusion: BLM medium is the best selective medium for Bifidobacterium isolation from human gastrointestinal tract.
