BACKGROUND:At present,the use of a locking bone plate combined with steel wire or steel cable for the treatment of periprosthetic femoral fracture often adopts monocortical fixation,which is not stable and the proximal end of the bone cannot be achieved anatomically fitted by plate.The customized anatomical plate system can effectively solve this problem. OBJECTIVE:To explore the biomechanical strength of a customized anatomical plate system in fixation of Vancouver BI periprosthetic femoral fracture. METHODS:CT thin layer scanning data of normal femurs of 1 006 cases were selected and input into the MIMICS 21.0 software to establish the three-dimensional reconstruction model of the femur,which was set as the three-dimensional reconstruction group.56 complete human femoral specimens were selected as the femoral specimen group.The measured results of the two groups for femoral anatomical appearance were compared.If there was no significant difference between the two groups,the approximate appearance of a customized anatomical plate system was designed based on the measurement results in MIMICS 21.0 software and NX11.0 software.The customized anatomical plate system was designed and prepared according to the above measurement results.Eight pairs of frozen human femurs were selected to make Vancouver BI periprosthetic femoral fracture,which of the left were thin layer scanned by dual-source CT to obtain data.The data were transferred to determine the customized anatomical plate system model by the above design software.Eight sets of customized anatomical plate systems were ultimately produced,relying on the instrument company.The eight pairs of models were numbered 1-8.The left side was fixed with the customized anatomical plate system(customized anatomical plate system group);the right side was fixed with a metal locking plate system-large locking plate(claw plate group).L1-L4 and R1-R4 were subjected to vertical short-cycle loading test and vertical loading test.L5-L8 and R5-R8 were subjected to horizontal short-cycle loading test and four-point bending test.The vertical loading test and four-point bending test were used to collect bending load,bending displacement,and bending strain.Two short cycle loading tests were used to collect strain displacement to compare the maximum load,maximum displacement,bending stiffness,and short-period displacement resistance of the two kinds of bone plates. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)There were no significant differences in all indexes between the three-dimensional reconstruction group and the femoral specimen group(P>0.05).Individual customized anatomical plate system was designed based on the measurement results combined with digital software.(2)In the vertical loading test,the maximum load was higher(P=0.015),the maximum bending displacement was smaller(P=0.014),and the bending stiffness was higher(P=0.005)in the customized anatomical plate system group compared with the claw plate group.(3)In the four-point bending test,the maximum load was higher(P=0.023),the bending stiffness was higher(P=0.005),and the maximum bending displacement was not significant(P=0.216>0.05)in the customized anatomical plate system group compared with the claw plate group.(4)In the vertical short-cycle loading test,the average level of bending displacement in the customized anatomical plate system group(0.23±0.10 mm)was significantly lower than that in the claw plate group(0.44±0.02 mm)(P<0.05).(5)There was no significant difference in the average level of bending displacement between the two groups in the horizontal short cycle loading test(P>0.05).(6)It is concluded that the customized anatomical plate system has personalized anatomical characteristics,and the fixation of Vancouver BI periprosthetic femoral fracture is more stable,which has certain significance for clinical treatment.

As a member of the apolipoprotein C (ApoC) family with a relatively high content, ApoC3 plays a major role in the regulation of triglyceride metabolism, and plays an important role in the occurrence and development of cardiovascular diseases, glucose and lipid metabolism disorders. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) refers to the accumulation of a large amount of fat in the liver in the absence of a history of chronic alcohol consumption or other damage to the liver. A large number of previous studies have shown that there is a correlation between the gene polymorphism and high expression of ApoC3 and NAFLD. In the context of hypertriglyceridemia (HTG), this article reviews the relationship between ApoC3 and NAFLD, glucose and lipid metabolism, and islet β cell function, showing that ApoC3 can not only inhibit lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and hepatic lipase (HL) activity, delay the decomposition of triglyceride in plasma to maintain the body's energy metabolism during fasting, but also be significantly increased under insulin resistance, prompting the liver to secrete a large amount of very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) to induce HTG. Therefore, targeting and inhibiting ApoC3 might become a new approach to treat HTG. Increasing evidence suggests that ApoC3 does not appear to be an independent "contributor" to NAFLD. Similarly, our previous studies have shown that ApoC3 is not an independent factor triggering islet β cell dysfunction in ApoC3 transgenic mice, but in a state of excess nutrition, HTG triggered by ApoC3 high expression may exacerbate the effects of hyperglycemia and insulin resistance on islet β cell function, and the underlying mechanism remains to be further discussed.

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the causes of soft tissue complications in patients with dorsal displacement distal radius fractures (DRF) after volar locking plate surgery.@*METHODS@#From July 2016 to May 2021, 112 patients with dorsal displacement DRF were treated with volar locking plate surgery, including 45 males and 67 females. The average age was (46.24±10.08) years old, ranging from 18 to 85 years old. According to whether there were soft tissue complications after operation, they were divided into complication group (40 cases) and non complication group (72 cases). Compared with preoperation, the radial metacarpal inclination and ulnar deflection angle, wrist flexion activity and dorsal extension activity, and grip strength of patients after operation were significantly improved (P<0.05). Compared with the non complication group, the proportion of patients in the complication group whose age was>60 years, body mass index (BMI) more than 30 kg·m-2, smoking, diabetes, fracture type C, open fracture and operation time more than 90 min was higher (P<0.05). The age, BMI, smoking, diabetes, fracture AO classification, fracture type and operation time were analyzed by multifactor Logistic regression to determine the independent risk factors affecting the occurrence of postoperative soft tissue complications of patients, establish a nomogram prediction model, and evaluate the model.@*RESULTS@#At the latest follow-up, the excellent and good rate of wrist joint function recovery was 83.93% (94/112), and the excellent and good rate of fracture reduction was 84.82% (95/112). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age more than 60 years old, diabetes, fracture type C, open fracture and operation time more than 90 min were independent risk factors for postoperative soft tissue complications (P<0.05). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC), calibration curve and clinical decision curve of the nomogram prediction model showed discrimination, accuracy and validity were good.@*CONCLUSION@#Age more than 60 years, diabetes mellitus, fracture type C, open fracture, and operation time more than 90 min are all independent risk factors for soft tissue complications after DRF volar plate fixation. In clinical treatment, perioperative soft tissue management should be done in such patients to prevent complications.

Objective To analyze the pollution characteristics of 12 kinds of metals and metalloid elements in PM2.5 in Xi'an city, and to assess the health risks. Methods In 2018, PM2.5 samples were collected regularly every month at two monitoring points in Lianhu District and Yanta District of Xi'an City. The content of twelve metal and metalloid elements (Sb, Al, As, Be, Cd, Cr, Hg, Pb, Mn, Ni, Se, and Ti) in the samples were determined. The test results were statistically analyzed and evaluated according to different regions and seasons. The health risk assessment model recommended by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was used to assess the health risks of the metal and metalloid elements. Results A total of 165 PM2.5 samples were collected and analyzed. The qualified rates of As and Cd were 51.52% and 83.03%, respectively, and there was no significant difference between regions (P>0.05). The qualified rate of As in each season from high to low was summer> autumn> winter> spring. The average concentration of As was 8.21 ng/m3, being 1.37 times higher than the standard. The average concentration of As in each season exceeded the standard, and the order from high to low was winter> spring> autumn> summer. The average concentrations of other elements did not exceed the standard. HQ value and HI value of As, Cd, Cr, Pb, Mn, Ni, Hg, Ti and Se were all less than 1. The ILCR value of carcinogenic elements As, Cd, Cr and Ni was between 3.63×10-07 ~2.58×10-05. The ILCR value was highest for As, followed by Cr. The ILCR value was highest in winter, followed by spring and autumn, and lowest in summer. The order of ILCR value was adult males> adult females> children and adolescents. Conclusion The pollution of metal and metalloid elements in the atmospheric PM2.5 in Xi'an in the winter is most serious. Arsenic and chromium in PM2.5 pose a higher potential health risk to the population through the respiratory route.

BACKGROUND: C-telopeptide and N-telopeptide cross-linked collagen type Ⅰ (CTx and NTx, respectively) are specific biochemical bone markers that can reflect bone formation and resorption. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the association of CTx with disuse osteoporosis. METHODS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 180-220 g, were randomly divided into control and disuse osteoporosis groups. Right hind limbs of the rats in the disuse osteoporosis group were immobilitzed for 4 weeks by ankle-tail fixation to establish the rat model of disuse osteoporosis. Peritoneal venous blood was collected before and after modeling, and the femur was then removed to measure the serum CTx level and bone mineral density of the bilateral femurs. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The serum CTx level did not differ significantly between groups before modeling (P > 0.05). At 4 weeks after modeling, the serum CTx level in the disuse osteoporosis group was significantly higher than that in the control group and at baseline (P <0.01). The serum CTx level showed no significant change in the control group before and after modeling (P > 0.05). The increment of serum CTx in the disuse osteoporosis group exhibited a negative correlation with the bone mineral density of the bilateral femurs (r=0.426, P < 0.01). The bone mineral density of the right femur in the disuse osteoporosis group was significantly lower than that of the left one in the disuse osteoporosis group and the right one in the control group (P < 0.01), and there was no significant difference in the bone mineral density between left and right femurs in the control group (P > 0.05). These results imply that the model of disuse osteoporosis by ankle-tail fixation is established successfully. Disuse osteoporosis can promote the production of CTx further reducing bone mineral density; CTx is positively correlated with the degree of bone loss, so it can be used for therapeutic assessment and diagnosis of osteoporosis.

Methods A prospective randomized controlled study was performed. Seventy-two critically ill patients with stress hyperglycemia, aged 18-85 years, acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ(APACHEⅡ) score over 15, two consecutive random blood glucose 11.1 mmol/L or higher, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) below 0.065, unable to eat food for 3 days after inclusion, or only accepting parenteral nutrition, admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) in Shanghai Punan Hospital of Pudong New District from January 1st, 2015 to June 30th, 2017 were enrolled. The patients were divided into three groups according to the random number table method, high-intensity group and low-intensity group were injected Novolin R (high-intensity group 2/3 dosage, low-intensity group 1/3 dosage) to modulate stress hyperglycemia by simulated artificial pancreas. Simulated artificial pancreas consisted of Guardian real time glucose monitoring system (GRT system), close-circle control algorithm and micro-pump;subcutaneous injection of Humulin 70/30 was applied to modulate stress hyperglycemia in humulin group. Real-time glucose levels of interstitial fluid in abdominal wall, equivalent to blood glucose levels, 10 minutes each time, were monitored by using of GRT system for all patients in three groups. Fasting serum levels of stress hormones including epinephrine and cortisol and insulin resistance index (IRI) were recorded within 24 hours after inclusion. Mean blood glucose, blood glucose variation coefficient, blood glucose target-reaching rate, blood glucose target-reaching time, hypoglycemia rate and 6-month mortality were measured. Twenty healthy adults from health administration department of the hospital were recruited as healthy control group. Results A total of 60 eligible critically ill patients were included in this study, each group with 20 patients. There was no significant difference in gender, age, APACHE Ⅱ scores among three groups. The levels of serum epinephrine, cortisol and IRI within 24 hours after inclusion in the three groups were significantly higher than those in healthy control group. The mean blood glucose levels of humulin group, low-intensity group, high-intensity group were decreased (mmol/L: 10.2±3.2, 8.4±2.6, 8.1±2.2), the blood glucose target-reaching rate were increased [40.2% (3 295/8 196), 71.1% (5 393/7 585), 80.4% (6 286/7 818)], the blood glucose target-reaching time were shortened (hours: 49.1±5.8, 24.6±4.6, 17.5±4.2), the hypoglycemia rates were increased respectively [1.3% (108/8 196), 2.8% (211/7 585), 4.0% (313/7 818)], with statistically significant differences (all 1 = 0.000). There was no significant difference in blood glucose variation coefficient and 6-month mortality among three groups [blood glucose variation coefficient: (29.4±3.7)%, (28.5±5.3)%, (26.1±4.6)%, 6-month mortality: 55.0%, 45.0%, 40.0%, all 1 > 0.05]. Conclusions Simulated artificial pancreas could effectively and safely modulate stress hyperglycemia in critically ill patients, high-intensity modulation could bring about better efficacy in the regulation of hyperglycemia. High-frequency blood glucose monitoring by using GRT system could promptly identify hypoglycemia and help it to be corrected.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the correlation between the bone marrow fibrous proliferation and the prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia(AML).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The quantitative method was used to analyze the reticulin fiber density (RFD) of AML patients. the bone marrow sections from 39 primary AML patients and 35 normal controls were collected to compare the RFD between these 2 groups. The prognosis value of RFD for AML were estimated by using appropriate statistical analysis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>RFD in primary AML was significantly higher than that in normal controls(2.41%±0.23% vs 1.14%±0.06%)(P<0.05). Relapse-free survival(RFS) analysis showed that the patients with RFD more than 1.68% indicated poor RFS, and the overall survival(OS) analysis showed that patients with RFD more than 2.66% indicated poor overall survival (P<0.05). Besides, there were no relationship between RFD and the BM blast count (r=0.01) and WBC counts (r=0.04) at diagnosis(P>0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The RFD in bone marrow is a high risk factor in poor prognosis of AML patients.</p>

OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of risperidone combined Ningxin yizhi capsule on the cognitive function,neuro-logic function and living quality of cerebral infarction. METHODS:110 patients with cerebral infarction were randomly divided in-to control group(55 cases)and observation group(55 cases). All patients received aspirin,statins,penicillins,physical rehabilita-tion and other conventional treatment;based on it,control group orally received Risperidone tablet with initial dose of 0.5 mg, once a day,1 week later,the amount of drugs was adjusted according to the patient's tolerance and conditions,0.5 mg was in-creased every week,with maximum dose of less than 2 mg,no other antipsychotic drugs except risperidone. Observation group ad-ditionally received 0.9 g Ningxin yizhi capsule,3 times a day. The treatment course for both groups was 2 months. Montreal cogni-tive assessment (MoCA) score,neurobehavioral cognitive status tests scale (NCSE),National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS)score,activities of daily living scale(ADL)score and table of daily living-Barthel Index(Barthel-Index)before and af-ter treatment,and the incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS:Before treatment,there were no signifi-cant differences in the MoCA scores,NCSE scores,NIHSS scores,ADL scores and Barthel-Index in 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,the MoCA scores,NCSE scores,ADL scores and Barthel-Index in 2 groups were significantly higher than before,and observation group was higher than control group,NIHSS scores were significantly lower than before,and observation group was lower than control group,the difference was statistically significant(P0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Based on the conventional treatment,risperidone combined Ningxin yizhi capsule can significantly improve the cognitive function,neurologic function and living quality of cerebral infarction,with good safety.

BACKGROUND:Surgical site infection of instrumented thoracolumbar spine is not rare and may induce serious consequences. There’s controversy about whether to remove the internal fixation in the treatment of infection. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the safety of the treatment for surgical site infection of thoracolumbar spine without removing internal fixation. METHODS:A total of 358 patients underwent thoracolumbar internal fixation in Department of Orthopedics, the Fourth People’s Hospital of Zigong City, between March 2008 and December 2012. Among them, 13 cases appeared surgical site infection of instrumented thoracolumbar spine, including 5 males and 8 females. The average age of the 13 cases was 54.5 years (31-65 years). After patients were treated with aggressive debridement, irrigation and anti-infective therapy, the wound healings were evaluated. The hemanalysis, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein and visual analogous scale score were analyzed and compared before debridement and 6 months after debridement. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The 13 patients had surgical site infection of instrumented thoracolumbar spine during 1 to 13 months post-operation. After timely diagnosis, aggressive debridement and irrigation, as wel as sensitive antibiotic therapy, 12 patients succeeded in curing infection and retaining implants. 1 patient with T12 fracture removed the fixation and cured infection. The folow-up time was 8-40 months, no case recurred. The hemanalysis, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein and visual analogous scale score showed significant difference before debridement and 6 months after debridement (P < 0.05). Postoperative infection after thoracolumbar internal fixation should be timely diagnosis and receive surgical treatment. Through aggressive debridement, irrigation and sensitive antibiotic therapy, most patients can be cured without removing internal fixation.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To screen and verify differentially expressed genes in prostate cancer.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Using DNA microarray, we screened differentially expressed genes in prostate cancer tissue and its adjacent tissue followed by verification by PCR.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>A total of 1 444 genes were found to be differentially expressed (differentiation ≥ 1.5-fold; P≤ 0.05) in the prostate cancer tissue, of which 769 (53%) were up-regulated and 675 (47%) down-regulated. Fifty percent of the differentially expressed genes showed a 1.5- to 2-fold differentiation, including 396 up-regulated and 182 down-regulated ones. Additionally, 308 up-regulated and 334 down-regulated genes exhibited a >2- to 5-fold, 46 up-regulated and 78 down-regulated genes a > 5- to 10-fold, and 19 up-regulated and 81 down-regulated genes a > 10-fold differentiation. Verification by subjecting 15 most significantly up-regulated and another 15 most markedly down-regulated genes to quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) showed that most of the genes had a transcriptional profile similar to that in the microarray data, with a Pearson correction coefficient of 0.83 between the microarray data and qRT-PCR results. Totally, 10 significantly differentially expressed genes were identified.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>DNA microarray analysis provides reliable information on differentially expressed genes in prostate cancer and benign tissues. The 10 significantly differentially expressed genes verified by qRT-PCR could possibly become new bio-markers and specific molecules for tumor identification.</p>
