Correlation between grip strength promotion and improvement of body composition and metabolic disorders in health examination population of different genders / 中华健康管理学杂志

Objective:To explore the correlation between grip strength promotion and improvement of body composition and metabolic disorders in health examination population of different genders.Methods:In this retrospective cohort study, clinical data of 600 people who received health examination and grip strength check-up two times or more in the Medical Examination Center of Peking University Third Hospital from January 2018 to November 2022 were selected. The general data, physical examination, biochemical parameters, body composition and grip strength results were collected. After the first physical examination, the grip strength test was conducted, appropriate resistance strength exercises were given based on individual evaluation results. A health lecture was held, and the information related to health exercise was pushed through WeChat official account every week. The grip strength test was completed at the same time at the second physical examination, and the difference between the two test results was calculated before and after the second physical examination. The generalized estimation equation was used to analyze the correlation between the improvement of grip strength and the improvement of body composition and metabolic disorders in different gender health-check population.Results:In man and women, the body mass index [(25.50±3.66) vs (25.33±3.74) kg/m 2, (22.41±3.55) vs (22.25±3.46) kg/m 2] and grip strength [(42.71±7.30) vs (41.77±7.36) kg, (25.28±5.30) vs (23.98±4.87) kg] at the second health check-up were all significantly higher than those at the first time, and the diastolic blood pressure [(72.79±10.30) vs (74.47±9.85) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), (66.93±8.90) vs (68.92±9.42) mmHg] and serum homocysteine [(17.96±14.09) vs (19.27±14.26) μmol/L, (9.47±3.91) vs (10.26±3.90) μmol/L] were all significantly lower than those at the first time (all P<0.05). Among man, the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) at the second physical examination was significantly lower than that at the first time [(2.94±0.78) vs (3.00±0.69) mmol/L] (all P<0.05). Among women, the systolic blood pressure and uric acid at the second health check-up were both significantly lower than those at the first time [(109.34±12.85) vs (110.54±12.32) mmHg, (276.91±62.46) vs (287.16±68.78) μmol/L], and the waist-hip ratio was significant higher (85.8%±5.1% vs 85.4%±5.0%) (all P<0.05). In males, the decreased aspartate aminotransferase ( OR=0.932, 95% CI: 0.888-0.978) and the increased skeletal muscle index ( OR=75.370, 95% CI: 29.012-195.806) were both positively correlated with the elevation of grip strength (all P<0.05); and in females, the decreased homocysteine ( OR=0.876, 95% CI: 0.782-0.982) and glycosylated hemoglobin ( OR=0.423, 95% CI: 0.222-0.805) and increased skeletal muscle index ( OR=22.918, 95% CI: 11.114-47.256) were all positively correlated with the elevation of grip strength (all P<0.05). Conclusion:There is a positive correlation between the improvement of grip strength and the improvement trend of body composition and metabolic disorders in in health examination population of different genders.

The value of CEA, CYFRA21-1 and CA125 tests in opportunistic screening for non-small cell lung cancer: a meta-analysis / 中华健康管理学杂志

Objective:To evaluate the value of CEA, CYFRA21-1 and CA125 tests in opportunistic screening of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) based on meta-analysis.Methods:The original research literatures on the diagnostic value of CEA, CYFRA21-1 and CA125 in Chinese NSCLC patients were searched from databases of PubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP, Database and Wanfang database from establishment to June 2023. The literature screening, data extraction and quality evaluation were carried out independently by two researchers. The quality evaluation tool of diagnostic accuracy studies was used to evaluate the quality of the literature. A summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curve was used to assess the overall effectiveness of the tests. The outcome stability and publication bias were detected by using sensitivity analysis and Deeks′ test.Results:A total of 23 studies met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that the overall sensitivity of CEA, CYFRA21-1 and CA125 alone in the diagnosis of NSCLC was relatively low, it was 0.49(95% CI: 0.43-0.55), 0.56(95% CI: 0.49-0.63) and 0.41(95% CI: 0.33-0.49), respectively. The overall sensitivity of the combined detection of the three markers for the diagnosis of NSCLC increased to 0.83(95% CI: 0.69-0.91), but the overall specificity decreased to 0.76(95% CI: 0.69-0.83). Conclusions:The single detection of CEA, CYFRA21-1 and CA125 is not recommended for screening NSCLC in population receiving physical examination. Although the sensitivity of the combined detection of CEA, CYFRA21-1 and CA125 for screening NSCLC is improved, but the specificity is decreased, the misdiagnosis rate is increased, so the screening effect is limited.

Analysis on the association between dust exposure and pharyngeal microbiota in coal miners based on 16sRNA high-throughput sequencing technology / 中国职业医学

ObjectiveTo explore the distribution of pharyngeal microbiota in coal miners exposed to dust. Methods Eight coal miners who had been engaged in occupational dust exposure for more than 20 years were selected as the dust-exposed group, and four coal miners who were not exposed to dust at work were selected as the control group using the judgment sampling method. Pharyngeal secretions of the coal miners were collected with throat swabs, and its pharyngeal microbiota was analyzed. The diversity, abundance and evenness of the microbiota were analyzed by gene sequencing using the 16sRNA gene high-throughput sequencing technology. Results A total of 254 operational taxonomic units of pharyngeal microbiota were detected in the coal miners in the control group, which was 210 more than that in the dust-exposed group. The Chao1 index, Shannon index, PD-tree index and Pielou index of pharyngeal microbiota in the dust-exposed group decreased compared with the control group (all P<0.01). The abundance of Bacteroidetes and Clostridum, at the phylum level, in the pharynx of coal miners in the dust-exposed group was higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05). The abundance of Prevotella, Neisseria, and Monas, at the genus level, in the pharynx of coal miners in the dust-exposed group was higher than that in the control group(all P<0.05), while the abundance of Lactobacillus decreased (P<0.05). The analysis results of the receiver operating characteristic curve showed that Lactobacillus, Fusobacterium and Rothia may play a role for pharyngeal microbiota imbalance prediction in dust-exposed workers, and the area under the curves were all 1.00±0.00. Conclusion The species diversity and evenness of pharyngeal microbiota in coal miners exposed to dust are decreased, which may be related to the continuous inhalation of coal dust that disrupts the microbial environment of the throat.

Differentiation of Pure Mucinous Carcinoma and Fibroadenoma on Ultrasound of the Breast / 中山大学学报(医学科学版)

ObjectiveTo investigate the difference of ultrasound characteristics between pure mucinous carcinoma （PMC） and fibroadenoma （FA） of the breast. MethodsUltrasound data of 50 continuous patients with breast PMC from January 2012 to January 2021 and 100 continuous patients with breast FA from June 2018 to January 2019 in Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were retrospectively reviewed. The ultrasound characteristics of the two groups were evaluated according to the 2013 BI-RADS Ultrasound Atlas， and the differences in age， maximum diameter and ultrasound characteristics between the two groups were compared. ResultsThe median age of PMC patients was 47 years and that of FA patients was 33 years. The age of PMC patients was higher than that of the FA group， and the difference between the two groups of patients was statistically significant （P<0.001）. The median maximum diameter of PMC patients was 2.4 cm， which was greater than that of the FA group （1.8 cm）， and the difference was statistically significant （P=0.001）. Of the PMC， 70% （35/50） were irregular， 82% （41/50） were parallel to the skin， 92% （46/50） had no circumscribed margin， 72% （36/50） were hypoechoic， and 68% （34/50） had enhanced posterior echo. Of the FA， 69% （69/100） were oval or round， 98% （98/100） were parallel to the skin， 54% （54/100） had circumscribed margin， 98% （98/100） were hypoechoic， and 75% （75/100） had no posterior features. The differences in the above ultrasound characteristics between the PMC and FA groups were statistically significant （P<0.001， P=0.001， P<0.001， P<0.001， P<0.001）. There was no significant difference between calcifications and blood flow. ConclusionsCompared with the FA group， patients with PMC are older and the diameter of the lesions are larger. On ultrasound， the morphology and margin of most breast PMC still show the growth characteristics of invasive cancer. Meanwhile， the posterior echo of PMC is enhanced， which is a unique manifestation.

Establishment of the Lunar Phase Morphological Classification for Cervical Spinal Canal

Methods@#The median sagittal diameter and transverse diameter of the spinal canal from C2 to C7 were measured on CT images. The ratio of the median sagittal diameter to the transverse diameter was calculated. Accordingly, the spinal canal shape of each segment was classified into four, and the specific criteria of lunar phase classification were determined through linear discriminant analysis based on the ratio of the median sagittal diameter to the transverse diameter. The inter-rater reliability of the classification was explored using Kappa coefficients. Finally, the morphology of the different segments of the cervical spinal canal in healthy volunteers was revised and compared. @*Results@#According to the ratio of the median sagittal diameter and the transverse diameter of the cervical spinal canal, the lunar phase classification of the cervical bony spinal canal was determined as follows: full-moon >0.65, 0.550.05). The frequency of the spinal canal of the residual-moon type was the highest, and the full-moon (6.5%) and residual-moon (7.5%) types of C7 were rare. @*Conclusions@#The morphological classification of the cervical spinal canal was established to present anatomical variations. The classification showed good inter-rater reliability.

Mining and analysis of adverse drug event signals of cinacalcet and etelcalcetide / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE To explore and analyze the adverse drug event （ADE） signals of cinacalcet and etelcalcetide， to provide a reference for safe drug use in the clinic. METHODS ADE reports related to cinacalcet and etelcalcetide were extracted from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System from January 1st， 2004 to June 30th， 2023 using the OpenVigil online tool. The Bayesian confidence propagation neural network method was adopted to detect the signals of ADE from the key organ systems. The signals were encoded according to the preferred term in the ADE terminology set of the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities （26.0 edition）. RESULTS A total 41 709 and 1 710 ADE reports were extracted， and 29 and 45 safety signals were detected in key systems for cinacalcet and etelcalcetide， respectively； 20 and 36 positive signals were not included in the drug instructions. Hypocalcemia/decreased serum calcium， abnormal blood parathyroid hormone （PTH）/increased or decreased serum PTH were common ADEs of the two drugs， which were detected in the study. Among the signals not included in the drug instructions， new moderate and strong signals were detected， such as cinacalcet-induced calcification defense （metabolic and nutritional diseases）， bone starvation syndrome and high conversion bone diseases （musculoskeletal and connective tissue diseases） as well as etelcalcetide-induced sudden death， necrosis and treatment of non-responders （general disorders， administration site）， unstable angina pectoris， myocardial ischemia （cardiac diseases）， intestinal perforation， gastric antrum vasodilation and gastric ulcer （gastrointestinal diseases）. CONCLUSIONS In the clinical application of the two drugs， apart from the common ADEs such as hypocalcemia and abnormal blood PTH， the surveillance of some new potential ADEs should also be carried out， such as bone starvation syndrome， calcification defense， ventricular disease and other cinacalcet-induced ADEs， sudden death， myocardial ischemia， unstable angina pectoris， intestinal perforation， gastric ulcer and other etecalcetide-induced ADEs. If new ADEs appear， clinic should promptly assess the benefits and risks， and update the treatment plan and pharmacological monitoring plan to ensure the safety of patient medication.

Relationship between adolescent parent attachment and attempted suicide among middle school students / 中国学校卫生

Objective@#To understand the current situation of suicide attempts in middle school students and to explore its relation with adolescent parent attachment, to provide a basis for the prevention and control of middle school students suicidal behavior.@*Methods@#A total of 4 419 students from grades 7 to 12 in Ezhou City and Xiaogan City, Hubei Province were selected by stratified cluster random sampling. The Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment, Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale, Kessler Psychological Distress Scale were used to conduct a questionnaire Survey, and evaluated the suicide attempts of middle school students.@*Results@#The detection rate of attempted suicide among middle school students was 6.8%. The detection rate of attempted suicide varies among different grades, family types, parental relation, parenting style, family income, self esteem level, and psychological distress( χ 2/ t =3.88, 10.12, 18.00, 52.54, 13.90 , 2.37, 8.99, P <0.05). The scores of paternal attachment and maternal attachment ( 14.64 ±13.45, 14.77±12.26) in the group with attempted suicide were lower than those without attempted suicide(22.05±16.08, 23.79±14.93)( t =-9.07, -12.11, P <0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that both paternal attachment and maternal attachment were associated with lower rate of suicide attempts among middle school students(paternal attachment, OR=0.99, 95%CI = 0.98 -0.99; maternal attachment OR=0.97, 95%CI =0.96-0.98), with paternal attachment for girls only( OR=0.98, 95%CI= 0.97 -0.99)(P <0.05).@*Conclusion@#Adolescent parent attachment may be a protective factor for middle school students suicide attempts. Sex specific effects are observed in adolescent father attachment in girls. Parents should pay attention to cultivating a good attachment relationship with their children and promote the healthy growth of middle school students.

Objective:To investigate the application value of transverse perineal arc incision approach in complete resection of presacral cyst in the lithotomy position.Methods:The retrospec-tive cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 114 patients who underwent com-plete resection of presacral cyst in Henan Cancer Hospital from August 2012 to October 2021 were collected. There were 14 males and 100 females, aged (35±9)years. All patients were diagnosed as presacral cysts by preoperative magnetic resonance imaging. Of the 114 patients, 76 patients undergoing intraoperative perineal arc incision approach in the lithotomy position were divided into the innovative group, and 38 patients undergoing intraoperative Kraske approach were divided into the traditional group. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations and specimen; (2) postoperative situations; (3) Follow-up. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and com-parison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Results:(1) Surgical situations and specimen. The operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, cases with intraoperative combined transabdominal approach or sacrectomy were (137±20)minutes, (261±101)mL, 0 in the innovation group, versus (136±34)minutes, (261±116)mL, 15 in the tradi-tional group, showing no significant difference in the operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss between the two groups ( t=0.18, 0, P>0.05) and showing a significant difference in cases with intraoperative combined transabdominal approach or sacrectomy between the two groups ( P<0.05). Results of postoperative specimen anatomy in patients of the two groups showed complete removal of the cyst. (2) Postoperative situations. The time to postoperative removing presacral drainage tube, duration of postoperative hospital stay, cases with postoperative second stage healing of incision were (11.4±2.1)days, (13.5±3.5)days, 23 in the innovation group, versus (11.5±1.9)days, (13.7±3.8)days, 4 in the traditional group, showing no significant difference in the time to post-operative removing presacral drainage tube and duration of postoperative hospital stay between the two groups ( t=-0.20, -0.24, P>0.05) and showing a significant difference in cases with postoperative second stage healing of incision between the two groups ( χ2=5.46, P<0.05). Cases with postoperative severe complications were 4 and 2 in the innovation group and the traditional group, respectively, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). (3) Follow-up. All 114 patients were followed up for 48(range, 6?108)months. Cases with recurrence of cysts were 2 and 0 in the innovation group and the traditional group, respectively, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). During the follow-up period, the anal defecation control function of all patients was classified as grade A?B of Williams score. Conclusions:The transverse perineal arc incision approach in complete resection of presacral cyst in the lithotomy position is safe and feasible. Compared with Kraske approach, the transverse perineal arc incision approach in the lithotomy position is more suitable for patients with high presacral cyst.

Research on the MRI/CT-based pre-operative bone quality assessment method for patients with cervical degenerative diseases and validation of its diagnostic efficacy / 中华骨科杂志

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic efficacy of MRI-based or CT-based measurements and the combined evaluation methods for preoperative bone quality assessment in patients with cervical degenerative diseases.Methods:Patients who underwent spine surgery for cervical degenerative diseases at the Department of Orthopedics, Huashan Hospital, Fudan University from September 2020 to March 2022 with available preoperative X-ray, CT, MRI and dule energy X-Ray absorptiometry (DEXA) data were included in this study. Vertebral bone quality score (VBQ) based on MRI T1-weightedimages and CT Hounsfiled unit (HU) values of the cervical spine were measured, and a combined diagnostic formula based on the binary logistic regression was constructed. The patients were divided into normal bone mass (T≥-1.0) and osteopenia/osteoporosis groups (T<-1.0). The student's t-test and Chi-square test were performed for comparisons between groups. The Pearson correlation coefficient was also used to investigate the correlation between DEXA-T scores, cervical VBQ and CT HU values. In addition, receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) were plotted to explore the diagnostic efficacy of VBQ, CT HU and their combined diagnosis. Meanwhile, the corresponding sensitivity and specificity were obtained. Results:A total of 71 patients were included in this study (17 in the normal group and 54 in the osteopenia/osteoporosis group). The student's t-test showed that VBQ (2.90±0.70 vs. 3.83±0.83, t=4.23, P<0.001) and CT HU values (370.26±85.38 vs. 295.20±67.96, t=3.73, P=0.002) were significantly different between the two groups. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) for VBQ and CT values of the cervical spine were 0.81 and 0.75, respectively, and the AUC for the combined diagnostic value constructed on the basis of both was 0.85. Applying VBQ scores alone had a diagnostic sensitivity of 80% and a specificity of 70%, and the combined diagnosis with VBQ and CT HU had a sensitivity of 90% and a specificity of 75%. Person correlation analysis showed a significant correlation between DEXA T value, cervical VBQ value and CT HU value. The detailed formula was: DEXA T score=-0.63×cervical VBQ+0.64 ( r=-0.55, P<0.001), CT HU value=-40.20×cervical VBQ+458.40 ( r=-0.45, P<0.001), DEXA T score=0.006×CT HU-3.47 ( r=0.45, P<0.001). Conclusion:This study confirmed the feasibility of using cervical VBQ values, CT HU values and combined diagnostics for preoperative bone density screening in patients with degenerative cervical spine diseases. This method allows surgeons to perform an initial preoperative bone density screening based on the patient's existing imaging data, and thus could aid in confirming the indication and scheme of surgery. The method could be a powerful tool for preoperative bone density assessment screening in patients with cervical degenerative diseases.

Regulation of PGC1α on SiO2-induced lipid accumulation in macrophages and fibrosis in pulmonary fibroblasts / 环境与职业医学

Background The pathogenesis of silicosis is complex and treatment methods are limited. SiO2-induced increase of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) can activate fibroblasts to promote collagen deposition, ultimately leading to fibrosis. Previous studies have confirmed that lipid metabolism plays an important role in the progression of silicosis. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1α (PGC1α) mediates mitochondrial dysfunction and lipid metabolism pathways in diabetic models, but its role in silicosis has not been elucidated. Objective To investigate the effect of PGC1α on lipid metabolism disorder of macrophages induced by SiO2 and its effect on the progression of silicosis fibrosis. Methods (1) Macrophages were divided into four groups by transfecting and silencing PGC1α and its control sequence in macrophages and followed by SiO2 stimulation: negative control group (transfected with si-NC for 48 h), si-PGC1α group (transfected with si-PGC1α for 48 h), SiO2 stimulation group (stimulated with 50 μg·mL−1 SiO2 for 36 h after transfection with si-NC for 48 h), and si-PGC1α+SiO2 group (stimulated with 50 μg·mL−1 SiO2 for 36 h after transfection with si-PGC1α for 48 h). Western blot and cell immunofluorescence were used to test PGC1α expression, 4,4-difluoro-1,3,5,7,8-pentamethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY 493/503) and total cholesterol (TC) and free cholesterol (FC) kits were used to test lipid accumulation, and the Oroboros2k-Oxygraph respiratory test system (O2K) was used to assess the effects of PGC1α on mitochondrial respiratory chain. ELISA kits were used to test TGF-β1 expressed in the macrophage supernatant. (2) Lung fibroblasts were divided into the same four groups as above, and stimulated with the supernatant of macrophages in the above groups. The expression of collagen Ι (COL Ι), E-cadherin (Eca), and fibronectin (FN) were detected by cell immunofluorescence and Western blot to further evaluate the effect of silencing PGC1α on fibrosis. Results The protein expression level of PGC1α stimulated by SiO2 was decreased, and the relative expression level of PGC1α was 0.78 times that of the control group (P<0.05). After transfection with si-PGC1α, the expression of PGC1α was decreased, and the relative protein expression level of the si-PGC1α group was 0.86 times that of the control group (P<0.05). Compared with the SiO2 stimulation group, the staining area of BODIPY 493/503 in the si-PGC1α+SiO2 group was enhanced, and the cholesterol-related indexes [TC, FC and cholesterol ester (CE)] were increased to 1.38, 1.10, and 2.26 times those in the SiO2 stimulation group (P<0.05). The activity of mitochondrial complex Ι was decreased, and the level of complex Ι in the si-PGC1α+SiO2 group was 0.63 times that in the SiO2 stimulation group (P<0.05). The secretion of TGF-β1 by macrophages increased, and the level of TGF-β1 in the si-PGC1α+SiO2 group was 1.15 times that of the SiO2 stimulation group (P<0.05). In addition, after stimulation of primary lung fibroblasts with macrophage supernatant, silencing PGC1α increased the expression levels of COL Ι and FN, while decreased the expression of Eca. The protein levels of COL Ι, FN, and Eca in the si-PGC1α+SiO2 group were 1.39, 1.18, and 0.82 times those in the SiO2 stimulation group, respectively (P<0.05). Conclusion Silencing PGC1α exacerbates SiO2-induced lipid metabolism disorder, inhibits mitochondrial respiratory chain, and aggravates the fibrosis induced by SiO2, suggesting that PGC1α may participate silicosis fibrosis by regulating mitochondrial respiratory chain and lipid metabolic disorder induced by SiO2.

Correlation between paraspinal muscle atrophy, morphological changes of facet joints and adjacent segment degeneration after lumbar fusion / 中华骨科杂志

Objective:To investigate the correlation between paraspinal muscle atrophy, morphological changes of facet joints and adjacent segment disease (ASDis) after lumbar fusion operation.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted among 195 patients who underwent posterior lumbar fusion again for ASDis at this institution from January 2014 to December 2020, including 29 patients with ASDis whose initial surgical fusion segment was L 4,5. According to Roussouly's staging, there were 5 cases of type I, 9 cases of type II, 10 cases of type III, and 5 cases of type IV. Another 29 cases were selected from patients without ASDis after lumbar fusion as a control group. The control group was paired 1∶1 with the ASDis group according to gender, fusion segment, and Roussouly typing of the lumbar spine. The cross-sectional area (CSA) and fat infiltration (FI) of paravertebral muscle, facet joint angle (F-J) and pedicle facet (P-F) angle before the first (second) operation were measured and compared between the two groups. Then logistic regression analysis was used to determine the predictors of ASDis after posterior lumbar fusion. Finally, the receiver operation characteristic (ROC) curve was described, and the area under the curve (AUC) and cut-off point were calculated. At the same time, the paraspinal muscle atrophy before the second operation in ASDis group was measured. Results:The average follow-up time of 98 patients was 59.25±6.38 months (range, 49-73 months). The average body mass index (BMI) of ASDis group was 24.76±3.64 kg/m 2, which was higher than that in control group (22.24±2.92 kg/m 2) ( t=2.481, P=0.041). The average CSA and relative cross-sectional area (rCSA) of paraspinal muscle in ASDis group were 3 214.32± 421.15 mm 2 and 1.69±0.36 respectively, which were less than 3 978.91±459.87 mm 2 and 2.26±0.29 in control group ( t=10.22, P=0.012; t=9.47, P=0.038). The FI degree of paraspinal muscle in ASDis group (21.95%±5.89%) was significantly higher than that in control group (14.64%±7.11%) ( t=7.32, P=0.002). The F-J angle in ASDis group was 35.06°±3.45°, which was less than 38.39°±4.67° in control group ( t=4.76, P=0.027). The P-F angle in ASDis group was 117.39°±8.13°, which was greater than 111.32°±4.78° in control group ( t=5.25, P=0.031). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that higher BMI ( OR=1.34, P=0.038), smaller rCSA of paraspinal muscle ( OR=0.02, P=0.017) and higher FI of paraspinal muscle ( OR=1.58, P=0.032) were the risk factors of postoperative ASDis. The ROC curve showed that the AUC of BMI was 0.680 and the cut-off point was 22.58 kg/m 2; The AUC of the FI of paraspinal muscle was 0.716 and the cut-off point was 15.69%; The AUC of rCSA of paraspinal muscle was 0.227 and the cut-off point was 1.92. For ASDis patients, the paraspinal muscle before the second operation had a higher degree of FI (25.47%±6.59% vs. 21.95%±5.89%, t=3.99, P=0.042) and a smaller rCSA (1.52±0.28 vs. 1.69±0.36, t=3.85, P=0.038) than that before the first operation. The difference between the FI degree of paraspinal muscle before the second operation and the first operation was negatively correlated with the occurrence time of ASDis ( r=-0.53, P=0.039) , and the difference of rCSA was positively correlated with the occurrence time of ASDis ( r=0.64, P=0.043) . Conclusion:When BMI >22.58 kg/m 2, FI of paraspinal muscle >15.69%, and rCSA of paraspinal muscle <1.92, it suggests that ASDis is more likely to occur after operation. And the more obvious paraspinal muscle atrophy after the first operation, the earlier ASDis may occur. Morphological changes of facet joints cannot be used as an index to predict the occurrence of ASDis.

Effect of cage height on adjacent segment degeneration during oblique lumbar interbody fusion: a 3D finite element study / 中华骨科杂志

Objective:To investigate the influence of interbody cage height during oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) on lumbar biomechanics with different degrees of degeneration and to provide a reference for cage choice.Methods:The finite element model of normal lower lumbar spine (L 3-S 1) was built and validated, then constructed three different degenerative segments in L 3, 4, and the cages with different height (8, 10,12, 14 mm) were implanted into L 4, 5 disc. All the twelve models were loaded with pure moment of 7.5 N·m to produce flexion, extension, lateral bending and axial rotation motions on lumbar spine, and the effects of cage height on range of motion (ROM), intervertebral pressure in adjacent segments and stress in facet joints were investigated. Results:The ROM of adjacent segments and the maximum stress of intervertebral discs increased with the increase of cage height, but this trend was not obvious in moderate and severe degeneration groups. After implantation of 4 different height cages (8, 10, 12, 14 mm), the ROM of L 3, 4 segment reached the maximum during extension. The ROM of mild degeneration group was 2.68 °, 2.71 °, 2.94 °, 2.98 °, moderate degeneration group was 2.33°, 2.37°, 2.41°, 2.49°, and severe degeneration group was 1.94 °, 1.99 °, 2.14 °, 2.21 °. The stress of L 3, 4 intervertebral disc reached the maximum during right bending. The maximum stress of L 3, 4 intervertebral disc was 23.95 MPa, 24.60 MPa, 24.90 MPa and 25.34 MPa in mild group, 25.57 MPa, 25.60 MPa, 25.82 MPa and 25.89 MPa in moderate group, and 25.95 MPa, 25.99 MPa, 26.48 MPa and 27.13 MPa in severe group. The maximum stress of L 3, 4 facet joint was 15.87 MPa, 15.78 MPa, 16.29 MPa and 16.43 MPa in mild group, 15.97 MPa, 16.31 MPa, 16.53 MPa and 16.79 MPa in moderate group, and 16.17 MPa, 16.49 MPa, 16.95 MPa and 17.35 MPa in severe group. Conclusion:For patients with mild lumbar degeneration requiring OLIF surgery, the intervertebral height of the surgical segment should not be overstretched. But for patients with moderate to severe lumbar degenerative disease who need to undergo OLIF surgery, it is recommended that the cage height be 0-2 mm higher than the original intervertebral space height.

Risk factors and treatment strategies for adjacent segment diseases / 中华骨科杂志

Fusion surgery has been an effective modality for the treatment of spinal disorders for more than 100 years. With the increasing understanding of the disease and the increasing maturity of surgical techniques, lumbar fusion has become more widely performed and its efficacy has been conclusively proven. However, fusion surgery inevitably disrupts the original physiologic motion of the spine and limits segmental motion, resulting in a significant increase in disc and joint protrusion stress in adjacent segments. When a newly identified degenerative change on imaging is present in an adjacent segment or an existing degeneration is more aggravated, this is known as adjacent segment degeneration. When clinical symptoms such as pain and numbness in the lower extremities are present that are consistent with degeneration, this is known as adjacent segment disease. Real world studies (RWS) have become a major focus in medical research in recent years. Since it is closer to clinical practice and more practical for decision-making compared with randomized controlled trail (RCT), it is gaining importance in clinical practice. By searching major national and international databases, this article provides a review of risk factors as well as advances in the treatment of lumbar adjacent segment disease in RWS. According to the retrieved literature, there are many factors that contribute to the development and progression of adjacent segment degeneration and disease, which are mainly divided into patient-related factors and surgery-related factors. In general, patient age, weight, spinal-pelvic sagittal parameters, and internal diseases influence the progression of adjacent segment degeneration. Surgery-related risk factors include the number of segments operated on, the surgical approach, interference with adjacent segments, and whether the spinal-pelvicsagittal imbalance is corrected. To prevent the development of adjacent segment disease, patients can slow the progression of adjacent segment degeneration by reducing their own weight and controlling their internal diseases. The physician can also avoid the influence of surgery-related factors through adequate surgical planning and careful intraoperative management. At the same time, surgeries may be performed in patients who have developed adjacent segmental disease and for whom conservative treatment has failed. The current revision surgical approaches include endoscopic simple decompression and posterior decompression with extended internal fixation.Short-term RWS revealed that the efficacy of endoscopic treatment of adjacent spondylosis might be equivalent to re-fusion internal fixation surgery. Studies with large samples and long-term follow-up are still needed to guide the treatment of adjacent segment disease in the future, in order to improve clinical decision-making.

Correlation between body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness decline in physical examination population of different genders / 中华健康管理学杂志

Objective:To analyze the correlation between the body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) decline in physical examination population of different genders.Methods:Clinical data of the cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) and body composition analysis of 439 people who received physical examination in the Medical Examination Center of Peking University Third Hospital from May 2021 to September 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The general data, physical examination, biochemical parameters, body composition and CPET results were collected. The subjects were divided into normal group and decline group according to the percentage of peak oxygen uptake (VO 2peak) levels ≥ 85% or<85%. Multivariate logistic regression was applied to investigate the influencing factors of CRF decline in subjects of different genders. Results:Among men, total cholesterol and triglyceride in the decline group were significantly higher than those in the normal group [(5.097±0.890) vs (4.865±0.856) mmol/L, (1.778±1.200) vs (1.485±0.709) mmol/L], and the blood homocysteine (Hcy) and skeletal muscle index were significantly lower than those in the normal group [13.00 (11.30, 15.90) vs 13.80 (12.05, 17.10) μmol/L, (7.89±0.65) vs (8.08±0.64) kg/m 2] (all P<0.05). Among women, skeletal muscle index in the decline group was significantly lower than that in the normal group [(6.21±0.52) vs (6.53±0.56)kg/m 2], and percent body fat was significantly higher than that in the normal group [(32.83±4.92)% vs (31.21±4.55)%] (all P<0.05). The elevation of triglyceride level ( OR=1.487, 95% CI: 1.042-2.121) and visceral fat area ( OR=1.032, 95% CI: 1.014-1.051) were positively correlated with the decline of CRF in man, the decrease of skeletal muscle index ( OR=0.215, 95% CI: 0.106-0.435) and the increase of percent body fat ( OR=1.149, 95% CI: 1.060-1.245) were positively correlated with the decrease of CRF in women (all P<0.05). Conclusions:There is a correlation between body composition and CRF decline in physical examination population of different genders. Men should control visceral fat more effectively, and women should pay attention to increase muscle mass while reducing body fat, in order to improve CRF.

The symptoms of ileal fistula reccurred in 2 patients within 1 year after operation, and there was no mortality.Conclusions:The rectal related intestinal fistula is the most common complex intestinal fistula after radical radiotherapy for cervical cancer. The point of surgical treatment is to remove the diseased rectum or ileum.

Corneal confocal microscopy detects small-fiber neuropathy in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis / 中华内科杂志

Objective:To investigate small fiber neuropathy in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) by corneal confocal microscopy.Methods:A total of 57 ALS patients were consecutively enrolled in Department of Neurology between June 2015 and February 2016, including 37 men and 20 women with mean age 24-80 (52±11)?years. There were 30 controls including 21 men and 9 women with mean age 23-76 (55±13) years. All subjects underwent corneal confocal microscopy (CCM), contact heat evoked potential (CHEP) and skin sympathetic reflection (SSR) to quantify small nerve fiber pathology. Four parameters, such as nerve fiber length (NFL), nerve branch density (NBD), nerve fiber density (NFD) and nerve fiber tortuosity (NFT) were assessed by corneal confocal microscopy. All statistical calculations were conducted using SPSS version 12.0.Results:Compared with control group, corneal nerve fiber length (NFL),nerve fiber density (NFD) were significantly decreased [(12.2±4.4)mm/mm 2 vs.(15.1±4.5) mm/mm 2, P=0.028;(50.8±24.0)/mm 2 vs. (68.3±16.4)/mm 2, P=0.002],and nerve fiber tortuosity (NFT) were significantly increased [(2.6±1.0)level vs.(1.0±0.5)level, P<0.01)] in SFN group, while nerve branch density (NBD) were comparable ( P=0.700).The course of disease is correlated with NFT ( r=0.25, P=0.030). Conclusions:CCM is a new sensitive noninvasive clinical technique that detects early small fiber nerve damage in patients with ALS.

Genomic and transcriptomic analysis unveils population evolution and development of pesticide resistance in fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda

The fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda, is a destructive pest native to America and has recently become an invasive insect pest in China. Because of its rapid spread and great risks in China, understanding of FAW genetic background and pesticide resistance is urgent and essential to develop effective management strategies. Here, we assembled a chromosome-level genome of a male FAW (SFynMstLFR) and compared re-sequencing results of the populations from America, Africa, and China. Strain identification of 163 individuals collected from America, Africa and China showed that both C and R strains were found in the American populations, while only C strain was found in the Chinese and African populations. Moreover, population genomics analysis showed that populations from Africa and China have close relationship with significantly genetic differentiation from American populations. Taken together, FAWs invaded into China were most likely originated from Africa. Comparative genomics analysis displayed that the cytochrome p450 gene family is extremely expanded to 425 members in FAW, of which 283 genes are specific to FAW. Treatments of Chinese populations with twenty-three pesticides showed the variant patterns of transcriptome profiles, and several detoxification genes such as AOX, UGT and GST specially responded to the pesticides. These findings will be useful in developing effective strategies for management of FAW in China and other invaded areas.

Relationship between different roles of school bullying and self consciousness among adolescents / 中国学校卫生

Objective@#To explore the relationship between different roles of school bullying and self consciousness among adolescents, and to provide a reference for school bullying prevention and control.@*Methods@#In Ezhou and Xiaogan, two cities selected randomly from Hubei Province, 4 336 middle school students randomly selected from Ezhou and Xiaogan City in Hubei Province by stratified cluster sampling method during March to October in 2017, were investigated for an anonymous questionnaire survey. The Chinese version of adolescent school violence questionnaire was used to evaluate the different roles in school bullying, and the Self Consciousness Scale(SCS) was used to assess the level of self awareness.@*Results@#About 18.9% of the respondents (819) were involved in bullying, among 86(2.0%) were pure perpetrators, 369 (8.5%) were pure victims, 364 (8.4%) were perpetrator victims. There were significant differences in public and private self awareness among different roles of campus bullying ( F=4.05, 2.90, P <0.05). The public self awareness score of perpetrator victims was higher than that of the uninvolved. The private self consciousness score of perpetrator victims was lower than that of the uninvolved ( P <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression showed a negative correlation between private self awareness and perpetrator victims. Private self awareness might reduce the risk of teenagers becoming perpetrator victims ( OR=0.93, 95%CI =0.91-0.96). A positive correlation between public self awareness and perpetrator victims and public self awareness might increase the risk of adolescents becoming perpetrator victims ( OR=1.08, 95%CI = 1.06- 1.11).@*Conclusion@#Self awareness is related to different roles of school bullying, and higher public self awareness and lower private self awareness are important predictors of perpetrator victims of school bullying.

RESULTS Totally 14 328 戒。电话：023-63625666。E-mail：jiayuntaomail@hospital.cqmu.edu.cn ARF reports of 4 kinds of β-blockers were retrieved within the ·1380· China Pharmacy 2022Vol. 33 No. 11 中国药房 2022年第33卷第11期 narrow sense of “acute renal failure ”in SMQ term set ，of which men （6 964）were more than women （6 206）. The age of patients was mainly concentrated in the middle-aged and elderly （≥45 years old ），and serious adverse events accounted for 77.23％. The results of signal retrieval based on SMQ term set showed that ROR values and 95％ confidence intervals of metoprolol ，bisoprolol， atenolol and nebivolol detected by ROR method were 2.58（2.51，2.65），5.30（5.14，5.47），2.80（2.69，2.91）and 3.28（3.04， 3.53）respectively. The signal components （IC）detected by BCPNN method and the lower limit of IC were 1.29（1.25），2.26 （2.22），1.42（1.36）and 1.64（1.53）respectively，suggesting suspicious signals were detected in these four kinds of β-blockers associated ARF. The results of signal detection based on PT level terms showed that 37 positive signals were detected by ROR method，38 positive signals were detected by BCPNN method ，and 36 suspicious signals were detected by the two methods at the same time. For each drug ，12 suspicious signals of metoprolol were detected at the same time ，9 suspicious signals of bisoprolol and atenolol were detected at the same time ，and 6 suspicious signals of nebivolol were detected at the same time ；the number and type of signals were different among the 4 kinds of drug. CONCLUSIONS Four kinds of β-blockers may cause ARF. Compared with metoprolol and atenolol ，bisoprolol and nebivolol have strong statistical correlation with ARF ，suggesting that medical personnel should pay attention to the possible renal related adverse reactions of these drugs in the process of clinical use.
