Objective To investigate the independent risk factors for acute severe cholangitis and related protective factors, and to construct a risk prediction scoring model for acute severe cholangitis. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 381 patients with acute cholangitis who were admitted to Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, The 940th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force of Chinese People's Liberation Army, from January 2016 to July 2021, among whom there were 273 patients with non-severe cholangitis and 108 patients with severe cholangitis. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to screen out the independent risk factors for acute severe cholangitis and related protective factors, and then a logistic regression model was established. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the discriminatory ability of the model, the calibration curve was used to evaluate the prediction accuracy of the model, and decision curve analysis (DCA) was used to evaluate the clinical value of the model. Moreover, the enhanced Bootstrap method was used to perform internal validation of the model and evaluate the performance of the model in internal validation. The model was visualized by the construction of Web calculator, nomogram, and scoring system. The two-independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between groups, and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between groups; the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. Results The univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that total bilirubin (TBil) (odds ratio [ OR ]=1.014, 95% confidence interval [ CI ]: 1.009-1.020, P < 0.001), percentage of neutrophils ( OR =1.128, 95% CI : 1.088-1.175, P < 0.001), and age ( OR =1.053, 95% CI : 1.027-1.082, P < 0.001) were independent risk factors, and albumin (Alb) ( OR =0.871, 95% CI : 0.817-0.924, P < 0.001) was a protective factor. The above independent risk factors and protective factor were included in the logistic regression analysis for model fitting, and the predictive model obtained had an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.925 (95% CI : 0.897-0.952), with a specificity of 0.817 and a sensitivity of 0.935 at the optimal cut-off value of 0.245. The calibration curve showed that the predicted probability of the model was approximately equal to the actual probability, with a Brier value of 0.098, and the decision curve analysis showed that the model had a higher net income within the threshold probability interval of 0.1-0.9. Internal validation showed an AUC internal validation of 0.915 and a Brier value internal verification of 0.106. Conclusion TBil, percentage of neutrophils, and age are independent risk factors for acute severe cholangitis, while Alb is a protective factor. The established risk prediction scoring model has good discriminatory ability, calibration, and clinical value and can identify patients with acute severe cholangitis at an early stage, which provides a reference for subsequent diagnosis and treatment.
Résumé
【Objective】 To establish a predictive model for patients with hemorrhage after CT-guided coaxial core needle lung biopsy (CCNB) based on logistic regression. 【Methods】 A total of 489 patients who had undergone CCNB were retrospectively recruited. The potential risk factors of hemorrhage after lung biopsy were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression, through which we screened the independent risk factors and established a prediction model for hemorrhage. We evaluated the discrimination, calibration and clinical usefulness of the model. 【Results】 There were 141 cases (42.6%) of hemorrhage in the development group and 66 cases (41.8%) of hemorrhage in the validation group; there was no case of severe hemorrhage or hemothorax. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that fibrinogen degradation products, pulmonary interstitial fibrosis, largest diameter and puncture depth were independent predictive factors of hemorrhage. Hemorrhage prediction model was established and presented in the form of a nomogram. Discrimination of the model: the AUC was 0.837 in the development group and 0.777 in the validation group. The calibration curve showed good agreement between predicted probability and actual probability of hemorrhage. The unreliability test yielded a P value of 0.849 in the development group and 0.147 in the validation group. The DCA curve showed that the hemorrhage predictive model could increase the benefit of patients. 【Conclusion】 The predictive model of hemorrhage in patients after CCNB based on logistic regression can be used in clinical practice.

【Objective】 To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Xi’an so as to investigate the relationship between the dynamic changes of lymphocytes and the disease progression. 【Methods】 We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 15 patients with COVID-19 in The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University from January 22 to February 16, 2020. 【Results】 Among the 15 patients with COVID-19, 8 were males and 7 were females, aged from 22 to 89 years. There were 12 ordinary cases (80%), 1 severe case (6.67%), and 2 critical cases(13.33%). There were 6 groups of family clusters.Most of the patients (14/15, 93.3%) had fever of different degrees. The average time from illness onset to admission was 2.80±1.66 days, and the average time from illness onset to diagnosis was 2.83±2.29 days. The main accompanying symptoms were dry cough (8/15, 53.33%) and shortness of breath (4/15, 26.67%). Nine patients (60%) who had low lymphocyte counts at admission, including of all of the critically ill patients (1 severe case and 2 critical cases) and 6 (6/12, 50%) ordinary patients. Lymphocyte counts in the ordinary cases increased gradually, but fluctuated in the severely ill patients. They were always at low level, or even decreased overall in critical cases. 【Conclusion】 In Xi’an City, COVID-19 mostly occurred in family clusters. Lymphocyte counts were reduced in most patients, especially in critically ill (severe and critical) ones. The lymphocyte count at admission and its kinetics during therapy may be an important predictor for the severity and prognosis of the disease.
Résumé
To examine the feasibility of using a computer tool for stratifying the severity of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) based on computed tomography (CT) images. We retrospectively examined 44 confirmed COVID-19 cases. All cases were evaluated separately by radiologists (visually) and through an in-house computer software. The degree of lesions was visually scored by the radiologist, as follows, for each of the 5 lung lobes:0, no lesion present;1,<1/3 involvement;2,>1/3 and<2/3 involvement;and 3,>2/3 involvement. Lesion density was assessed based on the proportion of ground-glass opacity (GGO), consolidation and fibrosis of the lesions. The parameters obtained using the computer tool included lung volume (mL), lesion volume (mL), lesion percentage (%), and mean lesion density (HU) of the whole lung, right lung, left lung, and each lobe. The scores obtained by the radiologists and quantitative results generated by the computer software were tested for correlation. A Chi-square test was used to test the consistency of radiologist- and computer-derived lesion percentage in the right/left lung, upper/lower lobe, and each of the 5 lobes. The results showed a strong to moderate correlation between lesion percentage scores obtained by radiologists and the computer software (r ranged from 0.7679 to 0.8373, P < 0.05), and a moderate correlation between the proportion of GGO and mean lesion density (r=-0.5894, P<0.05), and proportion of consolidation and mean lesion density (r=0.6282, P<0.05). Computer-aided quantification showed a statistical significant higher lesion percentage for lower lobes than that assessed by the radiologists (x2 = 8.160, P = 0.004). Our experiments demonstrated that the computer tool could reliably and accurately assess the severity and distribution of pneumonia on CT scans.

Objective To investigate the laparoscopic feature and its relationship with clinical manifesta-tions in infertile patients with endometriosis. Methods From Jan.2013 to Jan.2017,infertile patients who received hysteroscopy and hysteroscopy combination surgery in Ganzhou People′s Hospital were enrolled in this ret-rospective study.The basic clinical data and the distribution of endometriotic lesions were recorded and analyzed in patients with endometriosis simultaneously. Analysis was performed about the clinical manifestations and the rAFS stage of the patients. Results 204 patients are totally enrolled in the study. Among them,120 patients(58.8%) had endometriosis. The presence of menorrhea,dyspareunia,tenesmus,chronic pelvic pain,hypermenorrhea, adnexal mass,restricted uterine mobility,tenderness of adnexa,and tenderness nodules of posterior vaginal fornix are clinically statistically significant.In addition,the presence of ovarian endometrioma is also a significant clinical factor that is close related with the rAFS stage of infertile patients with endometriosis. Moreover,uterosacral liga-ment,rectovaginal septum,vagina and bowel were more common infiltrated in stage Ⅲ and stage Ⅳ endometrio-sis. Conclusions For infertile patients,detailed case history,overall bimanual examination and trans-vaginal ultrasound examination are very important to help diagnosis endometriosis preoperatively and provide evidence for the selection of individualized treatment strategies.

[Objective]To investigate the inhibitory effect and mechanism of the microRNA-320d(miR-320d)on epithelial mesenchymal transition in endometrial carcinoma JEC cells.[Methods]JEC endometrial carcinoma cell lines were transfected with miR-320d mimics or negative control mimic,respectively,as M320d or NCM group. Control group was established with untreated JEC endometrial carcinoma cells. miR-320d content in each group was detected by RT-PCR method. Transwell assay was used to detect the migration and invasion ability of the 3 groups. Western-blot assay was used to detect the expressions ofα-Catenin,E-cad-herin,Vimentin and PBX3 protein in 3 groups. Antagonistic effect of PBX3 overexpression on miR-320d inhibition of EMT was detect-ed by western blot assay. The relationship between miR-320d and PBX3 was detected by dual luciferase assay.[Results]The expres-sion level of miR-320d in M320d group was significantly up-regulated,and the expression level of miR-320d was 808.25 ± 15.58 times higher than that of control group(P<0.05). The number of migrating cells in M320d group was 29.56 ± 0.59,which was signif-icantly lower than that of control group at 94.48 ± 1.02(P < 0.05). The number of invasive cells in M320d group was 7.33 ± 0.84, which was significantly lower than that of group control 86.28 ± 3.51(P < 0.05). Compared with control group ,the expression of α-Catenin and E-cadherin protein was significantly increased ,the expression of Vimentin protein was significantly decreased ,and the expression of PBX3 protein was significantly decreased. After PBX3 overexpression,the expression ofα-Catenin and E-cadherin protein were significantly decreased,the expression of Vimentin protein were significantly increased. Dual luciferase assay showed that PBX3 is a downstream target gene of miR-320d(P<0.05).[Conclusion]miR-320d may inhibit the expression of EMT related protein through the downstream target gene PBX3 and inhibit the epithelial mesenchymal transition function of endometrial carcinoma JEC cells.

BACKGROUND:Choosing internal fixator implants with good strength and stiffness is the key to repair femoral neck combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric fractures. OBJECTIVE:To compare the biomechanical properties of different implant fixation for femoral neck combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric fractures. METHODS:Totaly 24 adult antiseptic cadaver specimens were used to produce fracture models with femoral neck fracture combined with 5 cm of ipsilateral subtrochanteri medical cortical defect, and were divided into femoral proximal locking plate group, lengthening proximal femur anti-rotation intramedulary nail group and lengthening proximal femoral nail group according to the random number table method. The results of axial compression test, torsion test and axial compression failure rest in three groups were compared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The axial compressive stiffness and failure load in lengthening proximal femur anti-rotation intramedulary nail group were significantly greater than those in femoral proximal locking plate group and lengthening proximal femoral nail group, and those in lengthening proximal femoral nail group were significantly greater than those in femoral proximal locking plate group (P 0.05). These results demonstrate that to a certain extent, compared with the femoral proximal locking plate and lengthening lengthening proximal femoral nail, lengthening proximal femur anti-rotation intramedulary nail fixation for repair of femoral neck combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric fractures has more biomechanical advantages.

The expressions of the key genes LDL-R, SREBP-1 and SREBP-2 involved in cholesterol synthesis and uptake were detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The LNCaP cells showed shrinking bodies and extending axons after androgen deprivation, and all the molecular markers, such as Sg III, NSE and CgA, significantly increased in a time-dependent manner, while the cell proliferation was obviously inhibited (P < 0.05). The cholesterol distribution in the LNCaP cells after NE differentiation presented remarkable aggregation at the axon terminals. However, there were no significant differences in the expression of cholesterol between the two types of cells, nor in the changes of the expressions of key genes LDL-R, SREBP-1 and SREBP-2 involved in cholesterol synthesis and uptake (P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Transient androgen depletion could successfully induce NE differentiation of LNCaP cells, and the intracellular cholesterol could re-distribute into axon terminals to enhance the formation of neurosecretory granules.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To discuss the effective operative approach for the treatment of distal radius fractures.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From March 2003 to April 2010,107 patients with distal radius fractures suffered internal fixation with locking compression plate (LCP). There were 48 males and 59 females with an average age of 51.27 years (ranged, 23 to 79). Of them, with directed volar approach was in 55 cases and Henry approach was in 52 cases. Surgical feature, fractured exposure time, operative time, median nerve complication, repair rate of the musculus pronator quadratus were compared between the two groups. Gartland-Werley wrist score (GW score), range of motion of wrist joint, grasp force and imageology score were observed in two groups at the first year after operation.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The average fractured exposure time in directed volar approach group and Henry approach group was (21.18 +/- 1.69) min and (12.56 +/- 1.35) min,operative time was (89.90 +/- 4.86) min and (61.58 +/- 4.37) min, postoperative median nerve irritation rate was 34.55% and 5.77%, and repair rate of the musculus pronator quadratus was 52.73% and 100%,respectively;there was statistical difference between two groups (P < 0.01). At the one-year after operation, GW score was 3.25 +/- 2.29,and with rate of excellent and good of 90.91% in directed volar approach group;in Henry approach group that was 2.92 +/- 2.13 and 92.31%, respectively; there was no statistical difference between two groups (P > 0.05). There was no statistical difference in range of motion of wrist joint, grasp force and imageology score between two groups (P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Henry approach can obtain the same operative result compared with directed volar approach in treating distal radius fractures. Henry approach has advantage of simple anatomy,easy operation,better repair rate of the the musculus pronator quadratus and lower postoperative median nerve complication,which should be used preferentially to treat distal radius fractures.</p>
