ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the change trend of disease burden in laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking in China from 1990 to 2019.Methods:Based on data from the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study database, the changes of death cases, mortality, disability adjusted life years (DALY) and DALY rate of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking among people with different gender and age in China from 1990 to 2019 were analyzed. Joinpoint software was used to evaluate the annual percentage change (APC) and average annual percentage change (AAPC) of attributable mortality and DALY rate. The change trend of laryngeal cancer death attributable to smoking and DALY was analyzed.Results:From 1990 to 2019, the mortality rate and DALY rate of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking in China showed an overall upward trend (AAPC of mortality was 1.6%, P < 0.05;AAPC of DALY rate was 1.26%, P < 0.05). In 2019, 75.64% of laryngeal cancer deaths in China were attributable to smoking, with 15 336 attributable deaths, 1.08/100 000 attributable mortality rates, 376 143 person-year attributable DALY and 26.45/100 000 attributable DALY rates, respectively. The population attributable fraction, death number, mortality rate, DALY and DALY rate of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking in males were higher than those in females. In China, the number of laryngeal cancer deaths and DALY attributable to smoking peaked in the age group of 50-69 years old, and the attributable mortality and DALY rate peaked in the age group of ≥70 years old. Conclusions:The disease burden of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking is high in China from 1990 to 2019, and there are differences in gender and age.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo explore the occupational needs of hand injury patients and the effects of activity-based analysis and occupation-based interventions. MethodsFrom January, 2021 to June, 2022, 212 patients who accepted occupational therapy for wrist-hand injury in Rehabilitation Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were interviewed using Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) to collect the activities that they wanted to do, needed to do, were expected to do, but unable to do. Two senior occupational therapists conducted the activity analysis of the summarized needs, identified occupational components, designed a purposeful occupation-based intervention program, and evaluated the performance and satisfaction using COPM. ResultsA cumulative total of 84 occupational needs were proposed, covering five major domains: work, basic activities of daily living, instrumental activities of daily living, leisure and sleep. The activities mostly impaired involved using computer (8.28%), using chopsticks (6.42%), wringing towels (6.25%), travelling on transport (4.90%) and lifting heavy objects (4.73%). The performance and satisfaction improved after treatment (t > 16.572, P < 0.001). ConclusionThe occupational needs are culturally specific for local hand injury patients; the use of an activity-based analysis and occupation-based intervention is effective on meeting the occupational needs.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the clinical value of preset balloon in abdominal aorta in assisting cesarean section for patients with placenta previa complicated by placenta accreta.Methods Preset balloon in abdominal aorta was performed in 72 patients with placenta previa complicated by placenta accreta before cesarean section was carried out.Of the 72 patients,pernicious placenta previa (type A) was seen in 33,scar uterus,placenta previa with placenta accreta (type B) in 36 patients,and placenta previa complicated by placenta accreta with no cesarean section history (type C) in 3.The amount of blood loss during cesarean section,the course of uterine resection,the X-ray radiation dose in performing placement of balloon,and the procedure-related complications were recorded.Results The average amount of intraoperative blood loss in type A,B and C group was 1461 ml,947 ml and 533 ml,respectively.Subtotal hysterectomy was adopted in 9 patients and uterine repair in 32 patients.The average radiation doses in 17 patients who received preset balloon procedure in 2015 and in 55 patients who received preset balloon procedure in 2016 were (28.5±14.1) mGy and (3.7±2.5) mGy,respectively.During hospitalization period,one patient developed right superficial femoral artery thrombosis,one patient developed venous thrombosis of right lower extremity,and subcutaneous hematoma occurred in two patients.Conclusion Temporary occlusion of the abdominal aorta with preset balloon to assist the cesarean section for patients with placenta previa complicated by placenta accreta can effectively reduce the amount of intraoperative blood loss and markedly reduce hysterectomy rate.The procedure of preset balloon is simple,and the X-ray exposure time is short.Skilled and experienced manipulation can further reduce the incidence of complications.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the role of interleukin?1β( IL?1β) in activation of N?methyl?D?aspartate ( NMDA) receptors in spinal dorsal horns of rats with neuropathic pain. Methods One hundred twenty?eight pathogen?free healthy adult male Sprague?Dawley rats, weighing 200-250 g, were divided into 4 groups (n=32 each) using a random number table: control group (group C), recombinant adenovirus vector group ( group rAd) , recombinant adenovirus vector shRNA group ( group rAd∕shRNA) , and recom?binant adenovirus vector shRNA plus recombinant adenovirus vector IL?1β group ( group rAd∕shRNA+rAd∕IL?1β) , receiving intrathecally injected equal volume of 0.9% sodium chloride solution, recombinant ade?novirus vector, recombinant adenovirus vector shRNA, and recombinant adenovirus vector shRNA plus re?combinant adenovirus vector IL?1β5 μl, respectively. Chronic compression of dorsal root ganglia was per?formed on 8th day after intrathecal injection. The thermal paw withdrawal latency ( TWL) was measured at 1 day before intrathecal injection ( T0 ) and at 1, 2, 3 and 5 weeks after intrathecal injection ( T1-4 ) . After measurement of the pain threshold at each time point, 8 rats selected randomly were anesthetized and sacri?ficed, and the lumbar enlargement segments of the spinal cord were harvested for determination of the ex?pression of IL?1β and phosphorylated NMDA receptor NR1 subunits at serine 896 ( pNR1S896) in spinal dorsal horns on the injured side by immunohistochemistry and Western blot. Results Compared with group C, the TWL was significantly prolonged, and the expression of IL?1βand pNR1S896 in spinal dorsal horns was significantly down?regulated at T2-4 in group rAd∕shRNA (P0.05) . Compared with group rAd, the TWL was significantly prolonged, and the expression of IL?1βand pNR1S896 in spinal dorsal horns was significantly down?regulated at T2-4 in group rAd∕shRNA ( P0.05). Compared with group rAd∕shRNA, the TWL was significantly short?ened, and the expression of IL?1β and pNR1S896 in spinal dorsal horns was significantly up?regulated at T2-4 in group rAd∕shRNA+rAd∕IL?1β ( P<0.05) . Conclusion IL?1β is involved in the activation of NM?DA receptors in spinal dorsal horns of rats with reuropathic pain.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:Specific down-regulation of interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) may al eviate the pain behaviors effectively after peripheral nervous injury. Compared with smal interference RNA (siRNA), short hairpin RNA (shRNA) could inhibit the expression of target gene more stably and efficiently. However, simple shRNA could not enter target cel s to down-regulate target gene efficiently. Adenovirus vectors have wide host range, high infection efficiency and stable expression in host cel s. OBJECTIVE:To construct recombinant adenovirus vector expressing shRNA targeting IL-1βgene and detect its effect on the expression of target gene. METHODS:Three siRNAs were designed on the basis of the nucleotide sequence of IL-1βobtained from NCBI and then three shRNAs (shRNA1, shRNA2 and shRNA3) were synthesized. The annealed shRNA product and adenovirus vector pHBAd/U6/GFP digested by BamH I and EcoR I were connected to construct the recombinant adenovirus vector shuttle plasmid expressing shRNA targeting IL-1β. After sequencing, HEK 293 cel s were co-transfected by the shuttle plasmid and skeleton vector, and three recombinant adenovirus vector expressing shRNA targeting IL-1β(rAd/shRNA1, rAd/shRNA2 and rAd/shRNA3) were packaged and amplified. Rats H9C2 cel s were infected by recombinant adenovirus vector expressing shRNA targeting IL-1βand fluorescence microscope was used to observe the infection efficiency. The effect of recombinant adenovirus vector expressing shRNA targeting IL-1βon the expression of target gene was detected by western blot assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The sequencing results showed that the sequences of three shRNAs adenovirus vector shuttle plasmid were consistent with the sequences of three designed shRNAs. rAd/shRNA1, rAd/shRNA2 and rAd/shRNA3 were constructed successful y. rAd/shRNA1, rAd/shRNA2 and rAd/shRNA3 could down-regulate the expression of IL-1βin rat H9C2 cel s and the down-regulation effect of rAd/shRNA2 was the most significant.

ABSTRACT

[Summary] Four patients with hyperthyroid-associated exophthalmos, myxedema, acropachy ( EMA ) syndrome, including three male patients and one female patient were diagnosed with Graves′diseases and treated by 131 I therapy. Complaints of thyrotoxicosis were presented at the onset. Tibia myxedema and acropathy appeared, and eye symptoms aggravated in two patients after anti-thyroid drug therapy and 131 I therapy. Four cases were all given clobetasol propionate, miconazole nitrate, neomycin sulfate and urea cream alone or in combination with compound betamethasone local injection treatment, and three cases were given low-dose oral prednisone treatment. Complaints of tibia myxedema and eye symptoms were significantly improved after the treatment. Therefore, we should be wary of the occurrence of hyperthyroid-associated EMA syndrome after 131 I therapy. Corticosteroid might be the effective therapy for myxedema and eye symptoms of EMA syndrome.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:Recent reports only concern vertebroplasty for mild to moderate vertebral compression fractures, but seldom address vertebroplasty for severe vertebral compression fractures such as vertebral colapse. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the efficacy and imaging features of percutaneous vertebroplasty for severe vertebral compression fractures. METHODS:A total of 25 patients underwent single-level vertebroplasty for vertebral compression fractures. Imaging features were then analyzed including location, pattern of compression, extent of colapse, pre- and post kyphotic angle and adjacent disc height before and after vertebroplasty. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:60% (16/25) patients involved the thoracolumbar junction. The height of colapsed vertebral body was 14%-30% of original vertebral body. The average height of colapse was 5.17 mm or 22% of original vertebral body. Kyphotic angle before vertebroplasty ranged from 0-33° (averagely 16°) with an average correction of 12° after vertebroplasty. Average disc height before vertebroplasty was 7.3 mm above and 7.7 mm below. Visual analogue scale score was significantly higher preoperatively than that postoperatively, showing significant difference in pain improvement (P< 0.015). These data suggest that percutaneous vertebroplasty is safe and effective in the treatment of single level severe vertebral compression fractures.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the results of etiology and serology of plague among human and infected animals in Qinghai province from 2001 to 2010.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thirty-seven cases of human infected with plague, 53 541 different animal samples, 5 685 sets of vector insects flea and 49 039 different animal serum samples were obtained between 2001 and 2010. A total of 7 811 samples of serum from healthy farmers and herdsmen in 14 counties in Qinghai from 2005 to 2007 were collected. Yersinia pestis (Y. pestis) were detected in visceral and secretions from human, infected animals and vector insects, respectively. Plague antigen was detected by reverse indirect hemagglutination assay (RIHA) in those samples. Indirect hemagglutination assay (IHA) was used to test plague FI antibody in serum of human and infected animals.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>37 human plague cases were confirmed, 21 strains of plague Y. pestis were isolated from human cases and 14 positive were detected out. 133 of 7 811 samples of human serum were IHA positive, with the positive rate at 1.7%. A total of 146 strains of plague were isolated from infected animals and vector insects, 99 out of which were from infected animals, with a ratio of Marmota himalayan at 72.7% (72/99) and the other 47 were from vector insects, with a ratio of callopsylla solaris at 68.1% (32/47). The number of IHA and PIHA positive were 300 and 10, respectively. A total of 3 animals and 3 insects species were identified as new epidemic hosts for plague. The natural plague focus of Microtus fuscus was discovered and confirmed and coexisted with natural focus of Marmota himalayan in Chengduo county, Yushu prefecture. The epidemic situation of plague is distributed mainly in Haixi, Yushu and Hainan prefectures.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>From 2001 to 2010, animal infected with plague was detected in successive years and human plague was very common in Qinghai. New infected animals and vector insects species and new epidemic areas were confirmed, hence the trend of plague prevalence for humans and animals is very active in Qinghai province.</p>
