Objective To observe the mortality of fragile hip fractures and evaluate the death-associated risk factors.Methods 100 men and 186 women aged 50 to 97 (mean,77.09± 10.65) years old who had fragile hip fracture over 50 years old from 2010 to 2012 were followed up,and the clinical data were retrospectively analyzed.Three months,one year and the total mortality of following time were calculated.Mortality-related risk factors were evaluated including age,gender,and surgery,duration from injury to operation,pulmonary infection,number and kind of complications.Results The 286 patients were followed up between 6 months and 42 months,with 21.42±9.88 months in average.The three month mortality was 7.69％,the patients who were followed up over one year were 231 cases,the one year mortality was 16.02％,and the total mortality of following time was 17.48％.The mortality was associated with age,gender,surgery,duration from injury to operation,number of complications,pre-injury cardiovascular disease and respiratory system diseases,and pulmonary infection.A Binary Logistic Regression analysis revealed that the independent risk factors affecting the mortality included age (OR=5.385,P=0.003),surgery (OR=21.217,P=0.000),number of complications (OR=9.038,P=0.000),pre-injury cardiovascular disease (OR=3.201,P=0.041).Conclusion The early mortality of fragile hip fractures was high and was associated with many risk factors.Age,surgery,number of complications and pre-injury cardiovascular disease were the independent risk factors affecting the mortality of fragile hip fractures.The positive treatment with complications,early surgery in condition allowed,can lower the early mortality.

Objective To construct single chain antibody specific to membrane protein of Schistosoma japonicum by gonetic engineering technique. Methods The V\-H (heavy-chain variable region) and V\-L (light-chain variable region) genes were amplified by PCR from the genomic DNA of NP11-4 cell line, and sequenced by Sanger's method. The ScFv was constructed in pTHA90 vector using V\-H and V\-L genes, then expressed by IPTG. Results The V\-H and V\-L genes were obtained through PCR. The DNA sequences showed that V\-H and V\-L were new variable region genes of antibody. They were registered by GenBank. A ScFv gene with (Gly4Ser) 3 intralinker in the pTHA90 vector was successfully constructed. The ScFv was expressed as thioredoxin-fused proteins about 36\^2 kDa. Conclusion A specific ScFv against the membrane protein of Schistosoma japonicum was constructed and expressed.

The treatment of lower extremity chronic refractory ulcers requires a long time but with poor prognosis. Thus, many patients end up with amputations. The treatment of lower extremity chronic and recalcitrant ulcers and limb salvage has been a challenge worldwide. The Ilizarov technique based on the law of "tension-stress" brings a new hope in treating lower limb chronic and recalcitrant ulcers. The Ilizarov technique and distraction osteogenesis not only induce bone formation but also lead to angiogenesis and improved microcirculation. The Ilizarov technique consists of longitudinal distraction of long bone and tibia trans-verse transport (TTT) (proximal tibial corticotomy followed by transverse distraction). These two techniques have their own advantages and disadvantages with different indications in clinical application. Longitudinal distraction of long bone is mainly used for bone formation, such as large bone defects, osteonecrosis or bone infection (with or without soft tissue loss or ulcers). Because of only a partial osteotomy in TTT, the trauma is minor and their effects on limb instability are limited. Moreover, the procedure is simple with only a few minor complications. Thus, it is ideal in treating lower limb ischemic ulcers, such as diabetic foot ulcers, thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's disease), ulcers caused by atherosclerotic occlusion, arterial or venous ulcers, and trauma wounds. Several studies reported that TTT achieved high healing and limb salvage rates in treating severe diabetic foot ulcer. However, TTT could achieve lower recurrent rate. Thus, it is the most successful application in treatment of chronic ulcers. TTT also improves healing and limb salvage in treatment of thromboangiitis obliterans. However, the overall effects are limited than those in treating diabetic foot ulcer. For lower limb atherosclerosis occlusion, TTT induces regeneration of microvessles and consequently leads to ulcer healing. The effects are better than other conventional treatments. A combination therapy with vascularization is emphasized to attain the optimal long-term effects. The effects of TTT on lower limb recalcitrant ulcers still need to be validated in randomized control trial with larger sample size. Further, the mechanism of treatment needs to be explored by pilot studies which could show that this may be related to the formation of pro-angiogenetic factors and a rebalance of the inflammatory microenvironment during TTT.

Objective] To amplify and sequence the light chain of anti idiotypic monoclonal antibody NP30 of Schistosoma japonicum. [Methods] By comparing the conserved regions at each end of the nucleotide sequences of murine germ line genes enco ding FR1 and FR4 regions of immunoglobulin light chain variable regions, we designed a set of primers for amplification of V L gene. The hybridoma cells secreting anti idiotypic monoclonal antibody NP30 of Schistosoma japonicum were cultured and their genome DNAs were extracted and used as templates for PCR. The PCR product was then cloned into pUC19 vector. The recombinants were sequenced by Sanger′s method. The V L gene was compared with GenBank and published mouse V L genes. [Results] The full length of V L gene was 318 bp. The V L gene was a member of mouse Ig ? light chain subgroup IV and generated from rearrangement of germ line V and J? 4 genes. The V L gene sequence has been registered by GenBank(accession No. AF206720). [Conclusion] The obtained V L gene was a potentially functional gene of anti idiotypic monoclonal antibody NP30 of Schistosoma japonicum .

Objective: To explore the association between dietary inflammatory index (DII) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components among children aged 6-14 years in Beijing, so as to provide a reference for preventing MetS. Methods: A cross sectional study was carried out in 2 086 records of 1 832 children from the 2017 and 2019 Nutrition and Health Surveillance in Primary and Secondary school students of Beijing (NHSPSB). Three day consecutive 24 hour dietary recalls combined with weighing household cooking oils and condiments were used to collect dietary intake and calculate DII. MetS was diagnosed according to "Definition and Suggestion on the Metabolic Syndrome of Chinese Children and Adolescent". The Generalized estimating equations (GEEs) models were used to analyze the association between DII and the presence of MetS and its components (abdominal obesity, high triglyceride, low high density lipoprotein cholesterol, hypertension, and hyperglycemia). Results: The mean DII score was (1.64±1.07) for the included children. No significant association was found between DII scores and the likelihood of MetS (per 1 point increment: OR =1.16, 95% CI =0.92-1.48, P >0.05). In terms of the components of MetS, DII scores were positively associated with the odds of high triglyceride (per 1 point increment: OR =1.17, 95% CI =1.01-1.36, P <0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the association among different age groups ( P >0.05). No significant associations were observed between DII and other MetS components( P >0.05). Conclusion DII scores may not be correlated with the risk of MetS, but proinflammatory diet might increase the risk of high triglyceride. DII score in childhood should be emphasized to identify and prevent MetS as soon as possible.

OBJECTIVE：To esta blish the m ethod for identifying Schizonepeta tenusfolia from different habitats based on odor information. METHODS ：The odor of S. tenusfolia from different habitats were identified by Heracles Ⅱ ultra-fast gas phase electronic nose. Qualitative analysis was conducted according to obtained chromatographic information combined with AroChemBase database and Kovats retention index qualitative database. Principle component analysis （PCA）and discriminant factor analysis （DFA）were conducted by using Alpha Soft V 14.2 software，and cluster analysis （CA）was performed with SPSS 22.2 software. RESULTS ：There were 16 common peaks in 15 batches of S. tenusfolia from different habitats. After comparison with AroChemBase database and Kovates retention index qualitative database ，a total of 13 possible components were obtained. The possible components and sensory description information of S. tenusfolia from different habitats were basically the same ，but only the content was different. The chromatographic peak intensities of common peak No. 2 were in descending order as Anhui ＞ Gansu＞Henan＞Hebei＞Jiangsu，the chromatographic peak intensities of common peak No. 6 were in descending order as Anhui ＞ Hebei＞Gansu≈Henan＞Jiangsu，the chromatographic peak intensities of common peak No. 9 were in descending order as Anhui ＞ Gansu＞Henan＞Jiangsu＞Hebei，the chromatographic peak intensity of common peak No. 13 were in descending order as Anhui ≈ Gansu＞Hebei＞Jiangsu＞Henan，which represented the chromatographic peak intensity of methyl formate （peak No. 2），α-pinene （peak No. 6），3-nonone（peak No. 9）and α-terpineol（peak No. 13）were significantly different due to the change of habitats. PCA results showed that the cumulative contribution rate of the first two principal components was 96.807％. Results of DFA showed that contribution rates of discriminant factor 1 and discriminant factor 2 were 92.089％ and 3.982％. CA results showed that when the distance was 10，15 batches of samples could be clustered into 3 categories，B1-B5 and J 1-J3 into one category ，A1-A3 into one category ，G1，G2，N1 and N 2 into one category. The results were basically consistent with those of PCA and DFA. CONCLUSIONS：Ultra-fast gas phase electronic nose technology can be used to identify S. tenusfolia from different habitats rapidly. Methyl formate ，α-pinene，3-nonone and α-terpineol may be the key factors to distinguish S. tenusfolia from different habitats.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the odor composition changes of two kinds of traditional Chinese medicine sachet （children type and adults type） with different placement time by using ultra-fast gasphase electronic nose technology. METHODS The change rule of sachet components at different storage times was analyzed by gas chromatography. At the same time， the qualitative results were obtained by combining electronic nose with Arochembase database. Discriminant factor analysis was used to analyze the overall odor composition differences of the two sachet samples. RESULTS A total of 10 odor compositions were identified in children-type sachet， including α-pinene and β-pinene as the functional index compositions； five odor compositions of children-type sachet disappeared after 0.25 days， and most of them disappeared after 7 days； the cumulative contribution rate of discriminant factor analysis was 99.225%. A total of 8 odor compositions were identified in adult-type sachets， including α-pinene and α-phellandrene as the functional index compositions； four odor components disappeared after the adult-type sachet was placed for 0.25 days； after 15 days of placement， the peak 6-8 disappeared， and the intensity of peak 5 decreased by 34.3% compared with 0 day of placement； the cumulative contribution rate of discriminant factor analysis was 91.965%. CONCLUSIONS With the extension of storage time， the smell and composition of the two traditional Chinese medicine sachets are decreasing. It is recommended that the use time of children-type sachet is 7 days， and that of adult-type sachet is 15 days.

OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism of Kuaisong yin in the prevention and treatment of constipation. METHODS Slow transit constipation （STC） model was established with Compound difenoxylate tablet in mice and rats. Two batches of mice were divided into blank group， model group， positive control group （Maren soft capsule， 0.64 g/kg）， Kuaisong yin low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups （3.2， 6.4， 12.8 g/kg）， with 10 mice in each group. The effect of Kuaisong yin on constipation in mice was evaluated by intestinal propulsion experiment and defecation experiment. Rats were divided into blank group， model group， positive control group （Maren soft capsule，0.36 g/kg）， Kuaisong yin low-dose and high-dose groups （2.4， 4.8 g/kg）， with 7 or 8 rats in each group. They were given relevant medicine once a day for 1 week. The metabonomics of serum and urine of rats were analyzed by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS technology. RESULTS Compared with model group， the ink propulsion rate and 5 h defecation volume of mice in Kuaisong yin high-dose group were significantly increased （P＜0.05）； the first defecation time of mice in Kuaisong yin medium-dose and high-dose groups was significantly shortened， and the quality of defecation was significantly reduced within 5 h （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Serum metabonomics screened 16 compounds （such as proline， propionylcarnitine， hemolytic phosphatidylcholine， etc.） and 6 metabolic pathways （such as sphingomyelin metabolism， arginine and proline metabolism， sphingolipid biosynthesis-lactose and neolactone series）. Urine metabonomics screened 20 different metabolites （such as prostaglandin A2， L-valine， phosphatidylcholine， sphingomyelin， etc.） and 8 metabolic pathways （such as valine， leucine and isoleucine biosynthesis， sphingomyelin metabolism， pyruvate metabolism， etc.）. CONCLUSIONS Kuaisong yin can play a role in improving constipation by regulating different metabolites such as hemolytic phosphatidylcholine， phosphatidylcholine， prostaglandin A2， L-valine， proline， and regulating metabolic pathways such as multiple amino acid metabolism， sphingomyelin metabolism， etc.
