Hollow Plasma Acceleration Driven by a Relativistic Reflected Hollow Laser.

In order to address the present difficulty in experimentally generating the relativistic Laguerre-Gaussian laser, primarily due to damage caused to optical modulators, a high-reflectivity phase mirror is applied in the femtosecond petawatt laser system to generate a relativistic hollow laser at the highest intensity of 6.3×10^{19} W/cm^{2} for the first time. A simple optical model is used to verify that the vortex laser may be generated in this new scheme; using such a relativistic vortex laser, the hollow plasma drill and acceleration are achieved experimentally and proven by particle-in-cell simulations. With the development of the petawatt laser, this scheme opens up possibilities for the convenient production of the relativistic hollow laser at high repetition and possible hollow plasma acceleration, which is important for a wide range of applications such as the generation of radiation sources with orbital angular momentum, fast ignition for inertial confinement fusion, and jet research in the astrophysical environment.

[Effects of physeal bar resection in treating post-traumatic distal radius partial physeal arrest].

Objective: To evaluate the effects of treatment of post-traumatic distal radius partial physeal arrest with physeal bar resection. Methods: From February 2007 to November 2017, 11 children with distal radius physeal arrest received physeal bar resection in the Department of Pediatric Orthopedics, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital. There were 2 females and 9 males. The average age of the patients was (10.1±1.8) years (range,7-13 years). All cases had previous history of distal radius trauma. The average duration from the previous fracture to the physeal bar resection operation was (22.8±3.2) months (range,22 to 41 months). Clinical and radiological evidence of distal radius physeal arrest were suggested in all patients. A CT or MRI scan was performed preoperatively to assess the size of the physeal bridge. Inclusion criteria were patients with a physeal bridge<30% of the physeal area,and with at least 2 years of growth remaining. The physeal bar resection operation was performed with the assistance of either fluoroscopy (5 cases) or intraoperative three dimensional navigation (6 cases). After resection, the void was then filled with bone wax in all cases and distal ulnar epiphysiodesis was conducted in 5 cases. The mean follow-up duration was (3.7±1.6) years (range,1-9 years). The clinical examination data and X ray were obtained during the follow up. Results: Four cases obtained fully recovery from the operation and the deformity got fully correction. The X ray showed no bone bridge recurred. The deformity did not aggravate in 1 case. The deformity aggravated and subsequent osteotomy was conducted in the left 6 cases. Three cases in the navigation group obtained fully recovery. One case in the fluoroscopy group obtained fully recovery. Conclusions: The intraoperative three dimensional navigation can precisely locate the bone bridge. The physeal bar resection is an effective technique in some post-traumatic distal radius partial physeal arrest.

Comparison of Evaluation Results of Different Disability Standards of Long Bone Fracture.

ABSTRACT: Objective To provide reference for further perfection and revision of standards relevant to limb injury by comparing the evaluation results of different disability standards of long bone fracture. Methods Thirty cases were selected from the long bone fracture cases accepted by our institution in 2018. These cases include 5 cases of shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, ankle joints, respectively, to investigate the degree of loss of function of joints after long bone fracture. Disability evaluation was made according to Classification of the Impairment Related To Injury （hereinafter referred to as Classification）, Assessment for Body Impairment of the injured in road traffic accidents （now repealed, hereinafter referred to as original Road Standard） and Identifying Work Ability-Gradation of Disability Caused by Work-related Injuries and Occupational Diseases （hereinafter referred to as Work Standard）. The disability evaluation results of every domestic standard were compared with the joint damage rate of Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment （hereinafter referred to as GEPI）. Results The functional loss rate of joints （except ankle） was 26%-48%，and the ankle functional loss rate was 51%-64%. The mean value of GEPI joint impairment rate of the joints was 13%-22%, with the fluctuation range less than 10%. The rate of level 10 disability was 100% according to the Classification. The rate of level 10 disability was 27%, the rate of level 9 disability was 6% and 67% were not disabled according to the original Road Standard. The rate of level 10 disability was 10% according to the Work Standard and 90% had a disability above level 10 （47% were classified as level 7 disability）. Conclusion The people with limb joint dysfunction in this study had evaluation results with a smaller fluctuation range and better consistency according to the Classification and GEPI. The evaluation results according to the original Road Standard and the Work Standard has a less consistency. The Classification is more similar to GEPI and is more reasonable.

[Single portal arthroscopic-assisted reduction technique in the treatment of irreducible developmental dislocation of the hip in infants and toddlers].

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of single-portal arthroscopic-assisted reduction technique in the developmental dislocation of the hip in infants. Methods: From January 2014 to December 2016, 12 dislocated hips in 12 children with a median age of 14 months (10 to 20 months) were treated with single-portal arthroscopic-assisted reduction technique. The indication for intervention was failure of closed reduction after bilateral adductor and unilateral iliopsoas release under anesthesia. Adductor and iliopsoas tendon were released routinely through a medial approach. Through the same medial approach a single-portal arthroscopic-assisted reduction technique was selected, with a medial sub-adductor portal for both 4.0 mm cannulated system with a 30° arthroscope and the instruments. After assessing of the intraarticular structures, the hypertrophic ligamentum teres and acetabular pulvinar were resected, and transverse acetabular ligament (TAL) was incised and a limited release of the capsule was performed prior to reduction of the hip. Arthrography was performed after reduction in all children. Safe zone angle and the medialization ratio on the arthrogram were compared pre and post arthroscopic reduction. Acetabular index were compared at two time points: before operation and at the latest follow-up with paired t test. Results: All hips were reduced with single-portal arthroscopic procedures. The reduction was confirmed on arthrography. With a median follow-up of 26 months (18 to 36 months), all 12 hips remained stable. Safe zone angle increased from 18.5°±3.8° to 61.9°±6.5° immediately after arthroscopic reduction(t=-28.944, P<0.01); and the medialization ratio on the arthrogram increased from 62%±20% to 104%±16% immediately after arthroscopic reduction (t=-3.519, P<0.05). The mean acetabular index decreased from 40.6°±5.0° to 29.4°±5.0° at the latest follow-up (t=5.463, P<0.01). However, Kalamchi-MacEwen type Ⅰ avascular necrosis was developed only in 1 case, and residual dysplasia was observed in 2 hips. Conclusions: Single-portal arthroscopic-assisted reduction technique is a safe and effective treatment for developmental dislocation of the hip in infants and toddlers.

A 3-year experience of a simple, novel technique for accurate ostial/non-ostial coronary stenting: The buddy balloon anchor stent technique.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a new technique for accurate ostial/non-ostial coronary stenting in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). BACKGROUND: Accurate stent localization is a key factor impacting the postoperative success of patients undergoing PCI. However, the accurate localization of some lesions, especially ostial lesions, is very difficult to achieve, because they are often complicated by bobbing or to-and-fro movement of the stent during cardiac contractions. METHODS: We report a novel technique of precise ostial/non-ostial stenting based on the buddy balloon anchor stent (BBAS) technique. Between May 2014 and July 2017, 47 patients with significant ostial/non-ostial coronary stenosis that required accurate stenting were included in this study. Of them, 23 patients were treated using the conventional method and the remaining 24 patients were treated using (BBAS) technique. Evaluation was then performed using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in the procedural, or coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in the follow up. RESULTS: Using the BBAS technique, the procedural success was achieved in all 24 (100%) cases. IVUS was performed in seven patients (29.17%) and no procedural complications occurred. All six failed cases that occurred among patients with right coronary artery and left anterior descending artery ostial stenosis treated using the conventional method, the lesions were subsequently successfully re-stented using the BBAS technique. After a follow-up of 3-36 months, CCTA was performed in 11 patients (45.83%), all the stents were in the accurate position. There were no major cardiovascular events of death, myocardial infarction, or target lesion revascularization. CONCLUSION: BBAS is a simple, highly successful and safe technique for accurate stenting of difficult ostial/nonostial coronary stenosis lesions.

Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase as a potential marker for cancer.

Cancer is the main leading cause of death in the world, although it has been made noteworthy advances in cancer research in the past decades. Early detection of cancer is extremely important in improving the chances of successful therapy. Thus, it is urgently needed to make further efforts to explore novel tumor markers for treatment. Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) is a cytosolic enzyme which catalyzes the N-methylation of nicotinamide to form 1-methylnicotinamide (1-MNA), and plays an important role in controlling the intracellular concentration of nicotinamide. Nicotinamide, the precursor to NAD+, is an important cofactor that associates cellular redox states with energy metabolism. Growing evidence shows that NNMT protein levels are elevated in a variety of human cancers, and increased NNMT expression has been linked to tumor aggressiveness. This paper presents a review for the role of NNMT expressed in a series of human cancers and the regulating mechanism involved, and offers its potential value of NNMT in cancer detection and treatment.

Collisionless Shock Acceleration of High-Flux Quasimonoenergetic Proton Beams Driven by Circularly Polarized Laser Pulses.

We present experimental studies on ion acceleration using an 800-nm circularly polarized laser pulse with a peak intensity of 6.9×10^{19} W/cm^{2} interacting with an overdense plasma that is produced by a laser prepulse ionizing an initially ultrathin plastic foil. The proton spectra exhibit spectral peaks at energies up to 9 MeV with energy spreads of 30% and fluxes as high as 3×10^{12} protons/MeV/sr. Two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations reveal that collisionless shocks are efficiently launched by circularly polarized lasers in exploded plasmas, resulting in the acceleration of quasimonoenergetic proton beams. Furthermore, this scheme predicts the generation of quasimonoenergetic proton beams with peak energies of approximately 150 MeV using current laser technology, representing a significant step toward applications such as proton therapy.

[Clinical application of 125I radioactive seeds brachytherapy in the treatment of the pediatric soft tissue sarcoma in head and neck].

Objective: To investigate the clinical application and preliminary results of 125I radioactive seeds brachytherapy in the comprehensive treatment of the pediatric soft tissue sarcoma in head and neck. Methods: A total of 24 pediatric patients with soft tissue sarcoma in head and neck were treated at Peking University School of Stomatology from April 2012 to July 2015. The data was collected and analyzed through statistical methods, which included the pathological type, gender, age, tumor location, volume, treatment and the clinical results after the application of 125I radioactive seeds brachytherapy. Results: Among the 24 patients, there were 18 patients of rhabdomyosarcoma, 2 Ewing's sarcoma, 2 fibrosarcoma, 1 synovial sarcoma and 1 malignant fibrous histiocytoma. After a follow-up of 9-48 months, 1 case of temporal rhabdomyosarcoma was observed to have a progression to the the lateral cranial base at the time of 12 months, 2 cases realized local control and systemic progression, the rest were completely relieved, and there was no recurrence during the follow-up period.The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the 1-year and 3-year local control rate were both 94.1%, the 1-year and 3-year event-free survival rate were 87.4% and 77.7%. Conclusion: The preliminary results indicate that 125I radioactive seeds brachytherapy play a very important role in the improvement of the local control rate and survival quality of the pediatric soft tissue sarcoma patient in head and neck, and it's a minimally invasive treatment with the advantage of accuracy andsmall side effects.

[Study on the impact of labro-chondral complex on development of the acetabulum after close reduction in developmental dysplasia of the hip].

Objective: To explore the influence of the labro-chondral complex (LLC) on the development of the acetabulum after close reduction in developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Methods: Sixty-one cases (72 hips) with DDH presented in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital were reviewed, all the patients were treated by closed reduction, arthrogram and Spica casting from March 2010 to December 2013. The anterior-posterior pelvic radiography was performed to evaluate the morphology of the labro-chondral complex and reduction of the hip. The cases were divided into Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ four groups according to the shape of the LLC initially, and when performed the secondary Spica cast after 3 months, these cases were divided into 0-0.4, 0.4-0.6, and >0.6, three groups based on the height difference ratio (HDR) of the LLC. The relationship between the shape and HDR of the LLC was analyzed. The AI and CE angle were used to evaluate development of the hip during the latest follow up. The impact of the shape and HDR of the LLC on the development of the acetabulum was explored as well. Results: The HDR was the least in the type Ⅰ hips, all cases were less than 0.6, the AI in this group was significantly lower than the others(24.33°±3.12°), and the CE angle was significantly higher in the type Ⅰ hips(15.22°±3.11°) during the latest follow up. The CE angle was significantly different among the three groups of HDR. The HDR was lower, the CE angle was higher. The AI in 0-0.4 group was significantly lower than the others(14.24°±3.10°). Conclusion: The shape of the LLC is helpful to judge development of the acetabulum when closed reduction was performed in DDH. And the HDR in the secondary cast change could be used as a sensitive index to predict development of the hip.

Protective effects of naringin against gp120-induced injury mediated by P2X7 receptors in BV2 microglial cells.

This study was aimed at exploring the effects of P2X7 receptors on gp120-induced injury and naringin's protective effects against gp120-induced injury in BV2 microglia. BV2 microglia injury model was established by gp120 treatment and MTS assay was used to verify whether naringin has a cell-protective effect against gp120-induced injury. Changes in P2X7 receptor expression were assayed using RT-PCR, qPCR, and western blot. Results showed that the ODs of the Ctrl, gp120, gp120+naringin, and gp120+BBG groups were 0.91 ± 0.10, 0.71 ± 0.09, 0.83 ± 0.10, and 0.83 ± 0.10, respectively. Compared to the control group, the gp120 group showed a significantly decreased cell survival rate. Cell survival rates of the gp120+naringin group increased significantly compared to those of the gp120 group, while no difference was observed when compared to the gp120+BBG group. The relative P2X7 mRNA expression levels in the Ctrl, gp120, gp120+naringin, and gp120+BBG groups were 0.73 ± 0.06, 1.05 ± 0.06, 0.78 ± 0.05, and 0.81 ± 0.04, respectively. The corresponding P2X7 protein expression levels were 0.46 ± 0.04, 0.79 ± 0.04, 0.38 ± 0.07, and 0.42 ± 0.06. P2X7 mRNA and protein expression in the gp120 group increased significantly compared to those in the control group, and declined in the gp120+naringin group compared to those in the gp120 group. Therefore, P2X7 receptors might be involved in gp120-induced injury in BV2 microglia, and naringin might play a protective role by inhibiting the up-regulated expression of P2X7 receptors.

[Effects of resuscitation by different formulation on oxygen metabolism during shock stage of burn injury in swine].

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects of different fluid resuscitation regimens on oxygen metabolism during shock stage of burn injury in swine. METHODS: Twelve Bama miniature swines were divided into crystal and colloid group (Group 1) and Parkland group (Group 2) according to the random number table. The swine models of burns shock were established. The fluid resuscitation was begun at post injury hour (PIH) 2 according to Chinese formulation or Parkland's formulation, respectively. The blood pressure, urine volume, heart rate, central venous pressure (CVP), pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) were recorded. The liquid volume was calculated at the first and second PIH 24. The changes in oxygen delivery (DO2), oxygen consumption (VO2), oxygen extraction (O2Ext) and D-lactate (D-LA) were determined before injury and at PIH 4, 8, 24, and 48. Statistical analyses were performed. RESULTS: There were no statistical differences between the two groups in blood pressure, urine volume, heart rate, CVP, PCWP in every interval (all P>0.05). The resuscitation liquid volume in the two groups during the first and second PIH 24 conformed to the domestic consensus. The VO2 at PIH 8 was significantly higher than that of pre-burn in both groups [(190±29) vs (83±42) L·min(-1)·m(-2,) (149±33) vs (85±15) L·min(-1)·m(-2,) both P<0.05], and the VO2 at PIH 8 was significantly higher in Group 1 than that in Group 2 (P<0.05). The DO2 at PIH 24 in Group 1 was significantly lower than that in Group 2 [(686±72) vs (853±81) L·min(-1)·m(-2,) P<0.05]. There were no significant differences between the two groups in O2Ext at any time points (all P>0.05). The D-LA at PIH 8 was significantly higher in Group 1 than that in Group 2 [(53±4) vs (45±6) mmol/L, P<0.05]. CONCLUSION: There are no significant differences in the resuscitation effects of the crystal and colloid resuscitation regimen and Parkland's formulation on oxygen metabolism during shock stage of burn injury in swine.

Effect of gestational subclinical hypothyroidism on early neurodevelopment of offspring.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of gestational subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) on early neurodevelopment of offspring. STUDY DESIGN: A prospective study included 106 infants born to mothers with gestational SCH and 106 infants born to mothers who were euthyroid during pregnancy. The neurodevelopment of 12 to 24-month-old infants was assessed and compared using the Gesell developmental test (revised version). RESULTS: Infants born to mothers with gestational SCH and those born to euthyroid mothers had similar scores on the Gesell development test. No correlations were observed between maternal TSH concentration and Gesell developmental test scores of offspring. Infants born to mothers who had gestational SCH during the first trimester specifically and those born to euthyroid mothers had similar scores on the Gesell development test. No significant correlations were detected between maternal TSH concentration during the first trimester and offspring neurodevelopment. CONCLUSIONS: No detectable neurodevelopment deficit was observed in offspring up to 24 months old from mothers who had gestational SCH.

Magnetism-Driven Ferroelectricity in Double Perovskite Y2NiMnO6.

We report the discovery of multiferroic behavior in double perovskite Y2NiMnO6. X-ray diffraction shows that the material has a centrosymmetric crystal structure of space group P2(1)/n with Ni(2+)/Mn(4+) ordering. This result is further confirmed by aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy combined with atomic resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy. The appearance of ferroelectric polarization coincides with the magnetic phase transition (∼67 K), which indicates that the ferroelectricity is driven by magnetism, and this is further confirmed by its strong magnetoelectric (ME) effect. We proposed the origin of the ferroelectricity is associated with the combination of Ni(2+)/Mn(4+) charge ordering and the ↑↑↓↓ spin ordering. When compared with other known magnetic multiferroics, Y2NiMnO6 displays several attractive multiferroic properties, including high polarization (∼145 µC/m(2)), a high multiferroic transition temperature (∼67 K), and strong ME coupling (∼21%).

High-sensitivity cardiac troponin T is a predictor of recurrent acute coronary syndrome in patients with acute myocardial infarction.

High-sensitivity cardiac troponin T is a useful tool for diagnosing myocardial ischemia. However, its role in the prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction has not been studied. Here, the prognostic value of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T for patients with acute myocardial infarction was investigated. The concentrations of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T, other clinical chemistry makers, and living habits were investigated at the time of admission in patients with acute coronary syndrome, whereas the high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T concentrations at 6 h after admission and during recovery were analyzed in other patient groups. The concentration of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T was significantly higher in patients with acute myocardial infarction than in those with other cardiac diseases and in controls (P < 0.01). Based on the standard diagnostic criterion, 134 patients were diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction. Monitoring the change in concentration of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T in patients with acute coronary syndrome can reduce the risk of recurrence and death.

Mo- and W-based organic nanostructures prepared from bulk crystal isomorphs consisted of [(CH3CH2)3NH)]2[MO2(C14H6O4)2] (M = Mo, W).

Two new crystal isomorphs consisting of complexes [(CH3CH2)3NH)]2[MoO2(C14H6O4)2] (1) and [(CH3CH2)3NH)]2[WO2(C14H6O4)2] (2) have been synthesized, respectively, and from which Mo-based flexible and durable nanopipes with diameters of 16 nm and lengths of hundreds of micrometers and W-based rigid and fragile nanotubules with ununiform diameters ranging from 30 to 100 nm and lengths in tens of micrometers have been prepared separately, which revealed that the change of the metal in the coordination center of the isomorphs can result in obvious variation to their nanostructures. The crystals both exhibited multilayered structures by the piling of lamellar repeating motifs through van der Waals forces, which are formed by the parallel alignment of 1D chains through hydrogen bonds, and the 1D chains are assembled by complexes 1 and 2, respectively, through geometrical intercalation and π-π packing. However, under grinding and ultrasonication, crystal 1 disassembled uniformly into longer and narrower nanostrips, whereas crystal 2 were broken at random into shorter and wider nanoribbons; therefore, the two lamellar nanostructures curled into different cylindrical nanospecies. The differences caused by Mo and W are the following: the Mo complex prefers to assemble into more durable one-dimensional structures along Mo-O bonds than W isomorphs; since Mo-O bonds are weaker than Mo═O and W-O bonds, then the weakest Mo-O bonds can be supported by the adjacent molecules through intercalation and π-π packing, which resulted in that the linkages among the Mo complexes are stronger along the Mo-O direction and hence the longer Mo-based cylindrical structure. Moreover, the flexibility of Mo-based nanopipes and the rigidity of W-based nanotubules might be attributed to that Mo possesses a lower melting point than W; therefore, Mo is softer and W is harsher.
