The changes of the dietary composition of Shanghai population from 1950 to 1985 were investigated and the relationship between the dietary composition and the mortality of diseases of the population was analysed with retrospective method. The results showed that the amount of consumption of grain was decreased but that of animal foods increased (except that around 1960) year after year during the past 35 years. The consumption of meat and eggs in 1985 was 2.8 and 4.9 times , higher than that in 1950 respectively. The intake of carbohydrates was decreased but- that of fat increased year by year. The ratio of polyunsaturated fat to saturated fats (P/S) was decreased and there was a trend of excess intake of fat. The mortalities from malignant tumours, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases were increased year by year, which correlated strongly with the consumption of dietary saturated fat. On the other hand the intake of protein, calcium and riboflavm was lower. Therefore, the dietary composition of Shanghai population was imperatively adjusted.

Objective To study the expression of cyclooxypenase-2(COX-2),prognosis of patients and the correlation between COX-2 and CD_(105)in osteosarcoma.Methods The expression of COX-2 and CD_(105)in human osteosarcoma was detected with immunohistochemistry.Then to count the microvessl density (MVD)were marked with CD_(105),The prognosis of the patients with osteosarcoma was analyzed by Cox multi- variate survival analysis.Results The positive rate of COX-2 expression was 77.5 %,The expression of COX-2 was positively correlated with surgical grade and metastasis of osteosarcoma;There were significant difference between surgical grade Ⅰ and Ⅱ b、grade Ⅰ and Ⅲ(P0.05);Metastatic cases had higher MVD than those without metastasis(P

Objective To examine how ischemic time under common temperature affects acute rejection by using a rat vascularized skin transplantation model.Methods Vascularized groin flaps were transplanted from BN to Lewis rats with 1,2,3 and 4 h of ischemic time (Isc-1 h,2 h,3 h,4 h groups) under common temperature,and the allografts in each group were evaluated daily.Groin flaps were transplanted from Lewis to Lewis rats as control group.Biopsy samples taken from the each group on the postoperative day 2-8 were graded for signs of acute rejection.Biopsy samples taken from each group on the postoperative day 6 were stained for chemokine receptor CXCR3.Results When the ischemia time was 1,2,3 and 4 h,the survival time of the grafts was (9.0 ± 1.2),(8.6 ±1.1),(8.8 ± 1.3),and (7.0 ± 0.8) days respectively.The survival time in Isc-4 h group was significantly shorter than in other groups (P＜0.05).Histological evaluation showed acceleration of activated lymphocyte infiitration in the Isc-4 h group as compared with other g.roups.Furthermore,the proportion of CXCR3 positive cells in the Isc-4 h group was (50.1 ± 8.4) ％,significantly higher than that in the other groups on the day 6 after transplantation.Conclusion When ischemic time was over 3 h,the immune response is accelerated.The acceleration is associated with the higher expression of CXCR3 in the infiltrated cells.

Objective Essential polyunsaturated fatty acids(PUFA) can not been synthesized by the body-self.Serum triglycerides n-6 and n-3 PUFAs directly or indirectly reflect the corresponding unsaturated fatty acids intake from meals.This study was to investigate the relationship of serum triglycerides polyunsaturated fatty acid composition with the ratio of n-6 to n-3 PUFA(n-6/n-3 PUFA) and magnetic resonance imaging measured intra-abdominal fat(MRI-IAF) with other body fat parameters of patients with metabolic syndrome.Methods Thirty-six patients with metabolic syndrome and 41 healthy controls were enrolled in this investigation.The relevance of serum triglycerides polyunsaturated fatty acids with MRI-IAF was observed.A stepwise regression analysis was applied to determine which kind of triglycerides polyunsaturated fatty acid could predict MRI-IAF,waist circumference and body mass index (BMI) more potent.Results In the metabolic syndrome group,blood sugar,lipid profiles,blood pressure,visceral fat accumulation-related parameters and serum triglycerides polyunsaturated fatty acid composition was worse than those in the control group.Compared with the healthy controls,n-6/n-3 PUFA was significantly increased(t=8.564,P＜0.05),although C18∶3 n-3,C20∶5 n-3(EPA),C22∶6 n-3(DHA) and n-3PUFA were significantly declined(t=-2.920,-7.034,all P＜0.05) in metabolic syndrome group.The difference of n-6 PUFA showed no statistically significant difference(t=-0.957,-1.494,P＞0.05).n-6/n-3 PUFA,n-3 PUFA,EPA and DHA were associated with MRI-IAF(r=-0.377,0.565,all P＜0.05); n-6/n-3 PUFA was correlated with the waist circumference(r=0.400,P=0.016) and BMI(r=0.357,P=0.033),while n6 PUFA showed no correlation with body fat parameters.N-6/n-3 PUFA was more potent to predict MRIIAF,waist circumference and BMI(adjusted R2=0.102,0.299,all P＜0.05) than other polyunsaturated fatty acids.Conclusions The ratio of n-6/n-3 PUFA and n-3 PUFA may be positively correlated with EPA and DHA could be inversely associated with MRI-IAF and other body fat-related parameters in patients with metabolic syndrome,while n-6 PUFA did not show such a relationship.The ratio of n-6/n-3 PUFA might be more potent to predict MRI-IAF and other body fat-related parameters.

BACKGROUND:The application of robot-assisted technology for total knee arthroplasty is one of the current research hotspots.Since the 1980s,robot-assisted technology has been introduced into total knee arthroplasty outside China to achieve accurate osteotomy and good recovery of lower limb alignment.After decades of use,the robot has continuously improved its performance with new iterations,but has been criticized for increasing perioperative time and surgical trauma. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the advantages and disadvantages of current orthopedic surgical robots in total knee arthroplasty. METHODS:PubMed database and CNKI were searched to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty in surgical trauma.English search terms were"arthroplasty,replacement,knee,knee replacement arthroplasty,procedure,robotic surgical,total knee arthroplasty,arthroplasty,replacement,knee,robotic-assisted".The Chinese search terms were"robot-assisted,robotic arm,knee osteoarthritis,arthritis".After the initial screening of all articles according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,62 articles with high quality and relevance were reviewed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty did not increase the degree of surgical trauma in patients,and showed a lower trauma effect than conventional manual total knee arthroplasty.(2)Robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty has the advantages of accurate auxiliary osteotomy,individualized prosthesis implantation,better protection of soft tissue around the knee joint,reduction of analgesic drug use,reduction of postoperative inflammatory index changes,and shortening of hospital stay.However,there are also shortcomings such as prolonged operation time,increased complications,and increased medical costs.(3)It is concluded that preliminary clinical application studies have shown that robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty can reduce surgical trauma,but it is necessary to be alert to potential risks.Simultaneously,its exact advantages compared with conventional manual total knee arthroplasty need to be verified by large-sample randomized controlled studies and long-term follow-up.

Objective:To compare the early clinical outcomes between domestic robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RA-TKA) and conventional manual total knee arthroplasty (CM-TKA) for patients with primary knee osteoarthritis.Methods:Embase, Pubmed, Web of Science, Zhi.com and Wanfang databases from January 2015 to April 2023 were searched for clinical controlled trials (RCTs) comparing the clinical outcomes between RA-TKA and CM-TKA. After literature screening, quality evaluation and data extraction according to the criteria required, Revman 5.3 software was applied to perform a Meta-analysis of the literature data. The operation time, intraoperative bleeding, hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA), HKA bias value, frontal femoral component (FFC), frontal tibia component (FTC), lateral femoral component (LFC), lateral tibia component (LTC), Knee Society Score (KSS), visual analogue scale (VAS), Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), knee mobility, Hospital for Specialty Surgery (HSS) knee score, length of hospital stay, and rate of complications were compared between the RA-TKA and CM-TKA patients.Results:Eight RCTs and 449 patients were included, with 221 patients in the RA-TKA group and 228 ones in the CM-TKA group. The Meta-analysis showed that the RA-TKA group had significantly longer operation time ( MD=18.41, 95% CI: 11.28 to 25.23, P<0.001), significantly better HKA ( MD=0.41, 95% CI: 0.06 to 0.76, P=0.020), significantly better HKA bias value ( MD=-0.92, 95% CI: -1.25 to -0.60, P<0.001), significantly better FTC ( MD=0.38, 95% CI: 0.08 to 0.67, P=0.010), significantly better LTC ( MD=1.71, 95% CI: 0.94 to 2.48, P<0.001), and significantly better knee mobility ( MD=-2.23, 95% CI: -4.18~-0.27, P=0.030) than the CM-TKA group. However, the differences were not statistically significant between the 2 groups in the intraoperative bleeding, FFC, LFC, KSS, VAS, WOMAC, HSS, length of hospital stay, or rate of complications ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Use of a domestic robot to assist conventional manual TKA can significantly improve the accuracy of prosthesis fixation and reconstruct the alignment of lower limb better, showing potential advantages in promoting functional recovery of the knee for the patients.

Objective: To explore the differential expression and mechanisms of bone formation-related genes in osteoporosis (OP) leveraging bioinformatics and machine learning methodologies, and to predict the active ingredients of targeted traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herbs. Methods: The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and GeneCards databases were employed to conduct a comprehensive screening of genes and disease-associated loci pertinent to the pathogenesis of OP. The R package was utilized as the analytical tool for the identification of differentially expressed genes. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) logistic regression analysis and support vector machine-recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE) algorithm were employed in defining the genetic signature specific to OP. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses for the selected pivotal genes were conducted. The cell-type identification by estimating relative subsets of RNA transcripts (CIBERSORT) algorithm was leveraged to examine the infiltration patterns of immune cells, with Spearman’s rank correlation analysis utilized to assess the relationship between the expression levels of the genes and the presence of immune cells. Coremine Medical Database was used to screen out potential TCM herbs for the treatment of OP. Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD) was employed for forecasting the TCM active ingredients targeting the key genes. AutoDock Vina 1.2.2 and GROMACS 2020 softwares were employed to conclude analysis results, facilitating the exploration of binding affinity and conformational dynamics between the TCM active ingredients and their biological targets. Result: Ten genes were identified by intersecting the results from the GEO and GeneCards databases. Through the application of LASSO regression and SVM-RFE algorithm, four pivotal genes were selected: coat protein (CP), kallikrein 3 (KLK3), polymerase γ (POLG), and transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4). GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses revealed that these trait genes were predominantly engaged in the regulation of defense response activation, maintenance of cellular metal ion balance, and the production of chemokine ligand 5. These genes were notably associated with signaling pathways such as ferroptosis, porphyrin metabolism, and base excision repair. Immune infiltration analysis showed that key genes were highly correlated with immune cells. Macrophage M0, M1, M2,and resting dendritic cell were significantly different between groups, and there were significant differences between different groups (P < 0.05 ). The interaction counts of resveratrol, curcumin, and quercetin with KLK3 were 7, 3, and 2, respectively. It shows that the interactions of resveratrol, curcumin, and quercetin with KLK3 were substantial. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations further confirmed the robust binding affinity of these bioactive compounds to the target genes. Conclusion Pivotal genes including CP, KLK3, POLG, and TRPV4, exhibited commendable significant prognostic value, and played a crucial role in the diagnostic assessment of OP. Resveratrol, curcumin, and quercetin, natural compounds found in TCM, showed promise in their potential to effectively modulate the bone-forming gene KLK3. This study provides a scientific basis for the interpretation of the pathogenesis of OP and the development of clinical drugs.
