Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2013;(39):6875-6880
BACKGROUND:For reducing the stress shielding, a lot of the schemes have adopted, and there is no great improvement although via the trial and the application for several ten years. It comes from a root which is the combination by thigh bone (abbreviation of the bone) and metal ic handle (abbreviation of the handle) which causes the serious problems of absorption of bone quality, and this kind of stress shielding effect is produced by abnormal stress and abnormal strain, and affected by various factors, so there is no effective and applicable method to solve this problem.
OBJECTIVE:To select the primary porous layer scheme as the subject of the study and entirely change the appearance and inherent quality as the metal ic handle that cannot transmit the stress is the key to eliminate the stress shielding;making the senior porous layer with the effective measure is the basis to eliminate stress shedding and can solve the disaster and partial inferior position aroused by the primary porous layer.
METHODS:The cobalt-chromium-molybdenum al oy smal metal ic spherules with equal diameter were used to manufacture the senior porous layer structure. The structural member employed in the thigh bone could separate the handle from the bone. This structural member welded on the plane of bone neck could fix the handle with calcar osteotomy surface. And these structural members had an ability to eliminate al the stress shieldings on the artificial hip joint surface.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The senior porous layer was made with cobalt-chromium-molybdenum al oy smal metal ic spherules with the same diameter (1.00-1.29 mm), and the surface of the porous layer was plated with high property of medium layer al oy and arranged orderly and inseparable, and then connected with active diffusion welding technology. The diameter of al the holes was 155-200μm and distributed evenly which was benefit for the bone unit to grew. The al oying of metal materials, ceramic of al oy surface and control ing of size and number of wear particles can solve the bone dissolution of the surrounding porous layer of bone, metal dissolution as wel as its pure cobalt and chromium particle toxicity, cancerization and leukemia. A stipulation of theoretical basis was to eliminate the handle rigidity firstly that could made the separation of handle from the bone became the premise for eliminating the stress shielding. The calcar osteotomy surface grew into the pores of the structural member welded on plane of bone neck could fix the handle, and that was the basis for eliminating the stress shielding. The common roles can eliminate the stress shielding in thigh bone, and the stress shielding on acetabulum is easily to eliminate.

Objective To understand the epidemiological characteristics and current situation of pertussis in Hubei Province from 2016 to 2021. Methods Data on the incidence of pertussis and immunization history of cases in Hubei Province from 2016 to 2021 were collected and descriptive epidemiological analysis was conducted. Results From 2016 to 2021, a total of 1 236 pertussis cases were reported in Hubei Province, with an average annual reported incidence rate of 0.35/100 000. The average annual reported incidence of pertussis in the age group ≤ 5 years old was 6.22/100 000, and the age group <1 year old reported the highest annual incidence rate (21.51/100 000). The proportion of pertussis among preschool children and students had increased significantly since 2020. Among the 1 111 cases with a known immunization history, 17.55% were under the age of vaccination , 41.85% were not vaccinated, and 17.46% had completed the whole course of vaccination. Conclusion Since 2016, the incidence of pertussis in Hubei Province has been on the rise. The risk of pertussis is higher in infants and young children who have not reached the age of vaccination and who have not been vaccinated in time according to the immunization program after reaching the age of vaccination. The timeliness and vaccination rate of DTP vaccine should be improved to reduce the risk of pertussis in infants and young children. In addition, more attention should be paid to the prevalence of pertussis among preschool children and students.

ObjectiveTo explore the role and molecular mechanism of Weifuchun (WFC) in inhibiting inflammation and alleviating gastric precancerous lesions (GPL). MethodHuman gastric mucosal epithelial cells (GES-1) were stimulated with N-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) for the modeling of GPL (MC cells), with Caspase-3 inhibition by Z-DEVD-FMK. MC cells were divided into control (20% blank serum), WFC (15% and 20% WFC-containing serum), and caspase-3 inhibitor groups. The cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) was used to examine the viability of GES-1 cells or MC cells. The Transwell assay and 5-acetylidene-2′-deoxyuridine (EdU) staining were employed to examine cell invasion and proliferation, respectively. Flow cytometry was employed to determine the level of reactive oxygen species. Real-time PCR was conducted to determine the mRNA levels of interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α. Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) was used to analyze the role of pyroptosis in gastric cancer progression. Western blotting was employed to determine the protein levels of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) p65, gasdermin E (GSDME), and Caspase-3. Immunofluorescence staining was employed to detect the NF-κB p65 protein level and nuclear translocation. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was carried out to observe the pathological changes in the gastric mucosa before and after WFC treatment in the patients. ResultCompared with the control group, MC cells presented enhanced proliferation and invasion energy (P<0.01). Compared with the blank serum group, WFC-containing serum inhibited the proliferation and invasion of MC cells (P<0.01), down-regulated the mRNA levels of IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α, and lowered the level of reactive oxygen species (P<0.05, P<0.01). The transcriptome data at different stages of gastric cancer showed that pyroptosis was involved in gastric cancer progression, and the GSDME level was significantly higher in GPL patients than in the normal group. Compared with the blank serum, WFC-containing serum lowered the level of NF-κB and inhibited the nuclear translocation of NF-κB (P<0.05), and it inhibited pyroptosis by suppressing the cleavage of Caspase-3 on GSDME (P<0.05, P<0.01). The analysis of patient specimens further demonstrated that WFC treatment down-regulated the NF-κB level and GSDME cleavage (P<0.01), inhibited pyroptosis, and alleviated gastric mucosal inflammation and intestinal epithelial metaplasia. ConclusionPyroptosis is involved in the progression of gastric cancer, and WFC inhibits pyroptosis via the NF-κB/GSDME pathway, thereby alleviating gastric mucosal inflammation in GPL.

Objective To evaluate the effect of the current immunization strategy for hepatitis B virus (Hepatitis B) in blocking mother-to-infant transmission in Hubei Province, and to explore the mechanism and possible influencing factors of failure of mother-to-infant blockade. Methods A multi-stage random sampling method was used to select 2 counties or districts in Hubei Province. Through maternity hospital health handbook, neonatal health record or hospital medical record system, hepatitis B virus (HBV) surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive pregnant women in 2012-2018 years were included to retrospectively investigate their delivery status and the HBV infection status of their children. Results Among the 302 newborns, 32 were positive for HBsAg, and the success rate of blockade of mother-to-infant transmission of hepatitis B was 89.45%. Further analysis showed that 68.21% (206 / 302) of newborns were delivered in township hospitals, 66.23% (200 / 302) were delivered by caesarean section and 41.72% (126 / 302) were breastfed, while 16.89% (51/302) were positive for hepatitis B virus e antigen (HBeAg), and 41.06% (124/302) were positive for anti-HBe. The vaccination rate of hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIG) during pregnancy was 3.31% (10/302), and the newborn HBIG vaccination rate was 94.37% (285/302). There were 84.11% (254/302) of pregnant women taking protective measures in daily life. Logistic regression analysis showed that township hospitals (OR=2.82, P<0.05), HBeAg positivity during pregnancy (OR=8.68, P<0.05), and HBIG vaccination during pregnancy (OR=12.62 , P<0.05) were risk factors for failure of mother-to-infant blockade, while anti-HBe positivity during pregnancy (OR=0.22, P<0.05), vaccination of newborns with HBIG (OR=0.20, P<0.05), and protective measures taken in daily life (OR=0.28, P<0.05) were protective factors for mother-to-infant interruption. Conclusion Deliveries in township hospitals and HBeAg-positivity during pregnancy are more likely to fail in blocking of mother-to-infant transmission of hepatitis B. HBIG vaccination during pregnancy does not reduce the risk of blockade failure. Neonatal HBIG vaccination, anti-HBe positivity during pregnancy, and protective measures in daily life can reduce the risk of blockade failure of mother-to-infant transmission of hepatitis B.
