OBJECTIVE:To explore loading dose simvastatin on related indicators in PCI perioperative period of patients with acute myocardial infarction. METHODS:Data of 203 acute myocardial infarction patients undergoing emergency PCI were retro-spectively collected and divided into observation group (102 cases) and control group (101 cases) by different regimens. Control group received conventional treatment for 3 d before PCI,including orally taking Aspirin enteric-coated tablet 300 mg/d,qd + Sim-vastatin tablet 40 mg/d,qd,simvastatin 40 mg/d after surgery,qd,for 4 weeks. Observation group received Simvastatin tablet 80mg 2 h before PCI,the other treatment was the same with control group. Total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),low-density li-poprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),IL-6,IL-10,TFN-α,plasma super-sensitive tropo-nin(TNT-HSST)level,creatine kinase isoenzyme(CKMB)level,high sensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)level and transami-nase level before and 24 h after treatment were observed and the incidence of adverse reactions was recorded. Meanwhile,the inci-dence of postoperative 30 d of MACE and CIN was followed-up. RESULTS:There was no significant difference in TG,TC, LDL-C,HDL-C before and after treatment(P>0.05). Before treatment,there was no significant difference in TNF-α,IL-6,IL-10, hs-CRP,CKMB,TNT-HSST levels in 2 groups (P>0.05);after treatment,TNF-α,IL-6,hs-CRP,CKMB,TNT-HSST levels were significantly higher than before(P<0.05),and TNF-α,IL-6,hs-CRP levels in observation group was significantly lower than control group,CKMB,TNT-HSST levels were significantly higher than control group;IL-10 was significantly lower than before in 2 groups,and observation group was higher than control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). The MACE rate and CIN rate in observation were lower than control group with statistical significance(P<0.05). And no obvious adverse reaction was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Loading dose simvastatin in PCI perioperative period can significantly reduce patients' PCI, TNF-α,hs-CRP,CKMB,TNT-HSST levels and the incidence of cardiovascular and renal adverse reactions.

Objective To investigate the correlation of medial meniscus extrusion with meniscus injury location, type and genu varum. Methods From March 2014 to March 2015, a total of 97 patients with injury of medial meniscus undergoing ar?throscopy and surgery were selected as subjects, including 40 males and 57 females, aged 32-66 years, with a mean age of 51.2± 10.71 years. Based on the MRI of knee, there were 38 cases with medial meniscus extrusion≥3 mm (extrusion group) and 59 cases without medial meniscus extrusion (non?extrusion group). Genu varus was measured on X?ray (Femur?Tibia?Angle<182°). The me?dial meniscus tear type was observed under arthroscopy (longitudinal tear, horizontal tear, oblique tear, radial tear, complex tear), as well as the meniscus tear location (anterior tear, body tear, posterior tear, root tear). The age, gender, BMI and involved side were compared between two groups. Multifactor unconditioned Logistic regression analysis was employed to analyze risk factors of medial meniscus extrusion. Results Two groups of patient showed no statistically significant difference in age (t=-1.511, P=0.135), gender (χ2=0.208, P=0.648), BMI (t=0.249, P=0.650) and side (χ2=0.052, P=0.820). The incidence of meniscus extru?sion in patients with genu varum was 89% (25/28), and the incidence of meniscus extrusion in patients with meniscus root tear was 78% (18/23). Significant difference could be spotted in the analysis of meniscal root tear (χ2=19.329, P=0.000), complex tear (χ2=5.111, P=0.024), genu varus (χ2=41.481, P=0.000) between patients with medial meniscus extrusion or without medial meniscus extrusion. Meanwhile, meniscus anterior tear (χ2=0.044, P=1.000), body tear (χ2=0.261, P=0.661), posterior tear (χ2=3.722, P=0.086), longitudinal tear (χ2=0.054, P=0.816), horizontal tear (χ2=0.317, P=0.790), oblique tear (χ2=0.198, P=0.819), radial tear (χ2=1.188, P=0.385) no statistical significance. By multifactor analysis, OR values of genu varus and root tear were 101.976 (95%CI:15.973, 651.041, P=0.000) and 35.517 (95%CI:6.804, 185.399, P=0.000), respectively. Conclusion Menis?cal root tear and genu varum were risk factors of medial meniscus extrusion.

{L-End}Objective To analyze the spectrum characteristics of noise hazards in the metal products industry. {L-End}Methods A total of six metal product industries were selected as research subjects using stratified sampling method. The noise intensity (A/C-weighted) and noise spectrum (Z-weighted) of workplaces and job positions were detected. The characteristics of the noise spectrum of each job position were analyzed using the difference between equivalent continuous C-weighted sound pressure level (LCeq)-equivalent continuous A-weighted sound pressure level (LAeq), the dominant frequency of the noise spectrum, and cluster analysis methods. {L-End}Results The workplace noise and job position noise of 11 main noise positions in the metal products industry were exceeded national standard, with incidence of 69.2% and 78.1%, respectively. The average of normalization of equivalent continuous A-weighted sound pressure level to a normal 40 hours working week exceeded the national standard in 100.0% of hydraulic workers, welders, and ultrasonic cleaning workers. The result of spectrum analysis showed that the noise in the metal product industry was mainly broadband. The noise of the collision welder position was classified as low-frequency broadband noise, while the noise of the painter position was classified as low-frequency narrowband noise. The noise spectrum characteristics of other positions were similar and classified into one category, all of which were broadband noise. Among them, numerical control lathe workers, welders, threaders, machinists, and cutters were exposed to high-frequency broadband noise, while press workers were exposed to mid-frequency broadband noise, and grinders, hydraulic workers, and ultrasonic cleaning workers were exposed to low-frequency broadband noise. The detection rate of binaural high-frequency hearing threshold improvement among workers was 61.7%, and there was no statistical correlation between the detection rate of binaural high-frequency hearing threshold improvement and the noise level intensity of each spectrum. {L-End}Conclusion The level of noise hazards in the metal products industry is severe. Effective engineering control measures and hearing protection measures should be implemented based on the spectral characteristics of noises.

Objective To explore the correlation between old anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury with medial menis-cal tears and posterior slope of tibial plateau. Methods Between July 2014 and February 2016, retrospective analyzed 177 pa-tients diagnosed with old ACL injury (injured to surgery time>3 months) who has been underwent arthroscopic treatment. 93 pa-tients included in this study contained 65 male and 28 female,the average age was (32.36±4.50) years old (ranged from 21 to 44 years). All patients were diagnosed with ACL rupture and no associated medial meniscus tear by MR examination at the time of in-jury and before operation. Posterior slope angle of tibial plateau was measured via MR. The patients were divided into two groups according to the presence of medial meniscus tear by preoperative MR examination. Statistical analysis was employed to analyze the difference between the two groups of patients's age, body mass index (BMI), posterior slope angle of tibial plateau, gender and side. The patients were divided into group of posterior slope of tibial plateau ≥10° and posterior slope of tibial plateau<10° re-spectively. Statistical analysis was employed to analyze the incidence of concomitant medial meniscus tear between the two groups. Result All 93 patients in this study were followed up for the average of 8.63 ± 3.74 months. 51(51/93, 55%) patients were com-firmed of concomitant medial meniscus tear and 42 (42/93, 45%) patients without medial meniscus tear through MR and arthro-scope. There was no statistical difference between two groups in age (t=0.843, P=0.843), gender (χ2=1.027, P=0.338), BMI (t=0.568, P=0.571) and side (χ2=0.110, P=0.438). There was a certain correlation between the medial meniscal tears and posterior slope angle of tibial plateau in this group and the values were considered statistically significant ( r=0.602, P=0.000). Posterior slope angle of tibial plateau of medial meniscus tear group (10.51°±2.83°) was significantly higher than that in non medial menis-cus tear group (7.39°±4.62°). Values were considered statistically significant .71.15%(37/51) of the patients showed medial meniscus tear in the group of posterior slope of tibial plateau ≥10° , however, only 34.14%(14/42) patients indicated medial meniscus tear in group of posterior slope of tibial plateau<10°, and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=12.677,P=0.000). Con-clusion There is a certain correlation between old ACL injury with medial meniscal tears and posterior slope angle of tibial pla-teau. With the continuous increase of ACL injury time, high posterior slope angle of tibial plateau (≥10°) is more likely to increase the incidence of medial meniscus tear.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and electrophysiological characteristics of facial onset sensory motor neuronopathy (FOSMN) syndrome.Methods:Ten patients diagnosed with FOSMN syndrome in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2012 to December 2022 were included. The clinical and electrophysiological characteristics of patients were analyzed and summarized, and the genetic testing was also performed in these patients.Results:The age of onset was (56.6±6.5) years, and the longest survival duration of disease was 10 years. All patients had numbness around the face and mouth as the first symptom and abnormal blink reflex. A total of 52 sensory nerve conduction nerves were detected, among which 2 median nerves and 2 μlnar nerves showed decreased amplitude of sensory nerve action potential. Needle electromyography showed neurogenic lesions, with both progressive and chronic denervation. Whole exome sequencing identified the heterozygous variant c.272A>C in the exon 4 of the SOD1 gene resulting in the amino acid change p.Asp90Ala in 1 patient. In all patients, the disease progressed relentlessly and eventually led to involvement of respiratory muscle. Conclusion:FOSMN syndrome is characterized by abnormal blink reflex and sometimes abnormal sensory nerve conduction may be shown on electrophysiologic testing.
