Objective To investigate the association of serum interleukin-6 and interleukin-18 concentration in patients with meta-bolic syndrome (MS), and explore the role of inflammtory markers in these patients. Methods 83 patients with MS were enrolled into study group, among of them, 47 were male and 36 were female, their average was 48.95±10. 17 years. The control group was made of 85 normal volunteers. The levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting insulin, plasma lipids, interleukin-6 and interleukin-18 were meas-ured in all the patients and normal subjects. The insulin sensitive index was calculated. The levels of the fasting blood inflammatory markers were compared between the two groups. Results Compared with the control group, the HOMA-βof the MS group was significantly de-creased, but the levels of IL-18 and IL-6 were significantly increased. The serum IL-18 levels were positive correlated with FPG, FINS, TG, HOMA-IR, IL-6. Conclusion There are IR and abnormal serum level of IL-18 and IL-6 in patients with MS. It has an intimate association between abnormal serum IL-18 and IR. The inflammatory reaction may play an important role in the development of IR in patients with MS.

Objective To investigate the effect of locking plate combined with cortical screw internal fixation on ankle function and quality of life in patients with ankle fracture with tibiofibular separation.Methods A total of 120 patients with ankle fracture and distal tibiofibular separation treated in our hospital from May 2020 to December 2021 were selected and divided into control group and observation group according to random number table method,with 60 patients/group.The control group was treated with cortical screw fixation alone,and the observation group was treated with locking plate combined with cortical screw internal fixation.Before surgery and 6 months after surgery,the recovery function of the two groups was compared.X-ray,operation duration,healing time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative complications were compared,and the living ability of the two groups of patients was evaluated.Results Before treatment,there was no difference in joint function between the two groups(P＞0.05).After treatment,the longest walking of the control group(15.89±0.85),foot alignment(15.06±0.71),pain response(29.03±4.48)and ground walking(15.65±0.59).The longest walking distance(16.19±0.87),foot alignment(15.29±0.76),pain response(31.24±4.55)and ground walking(15.96±0.68)in the observation group,which were higher than those in control group(P＜0.05).Compared with the control group,the intraoperative blood loss and healing time in the observation group were lower(P＜0.05).BI index of the two groups before treatment had no difference(P＞0.05);After treatment,BI index of observation group was higher than that of control group(P＜0.05).There was no difference in the total complication rate between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Locking plate combined with cortical screw internal fixation has a good therapeutic effect on improving ankle function,reducing intraoperative blood loss,promoting healing and improving behavioral ability in the treatment of ankle fracture combined with hypotibiofibular syndesmosis injury.

Objectives To screen the high-risk population of stroke in China using color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI)and to establish a stroke risk prediction model in Chinese population in order to prevent and treat stroke early. Methods Forty-one base hospitals and 715 286 people in the project areas of the first 6 provinces of China conducted routine physical examinations and investigated the related risk factors for cardiocerebrovascular diseases from July 2011 to April 2012 using a cross-sectional study,among them 61 860 patients underwent carotid CDFI screening,and 49 386 of them were high-risk population (exposed to≥3 risk factors). The bilateral common carotid interma-media thickness (IMT),the number of plaques and the degree of carotid stenosis were screened and documented. And whether carotid IMT thickening or not,with or without carotid plaques,and degree of carotid artery stenotic rate 0-49% and≥50% were performed by multivariate logistic regression analysis with the risk factors for stroke,respectively. Results (1)Logistic regression analysis showed that hypertension,atrial fibrillation,smoking,and lack of physical exercise were the independent risk factors for carotid IMT thickening (hypertension:OR,1. 17;95%CI 1. 12-1. 22;atrial fibrillation:OR,1. 15;95%CI 1. 09-1. 21;smoking:OR,1. 13;95%CI 1. 08-1. 17;and lack of physical exercise:OR,1. 12;95%CI 1.08-1. 16). (2)Hypertension,atrial fibrillation, smoking,and diabetes were the independent risk factors for carotid plaque and carotid artery stenosis rate≥50%(carotid plaque,hypertension:OR,1. 55;95%CI 1. 47-1. 62;atrial fibrillation:OR,1. 13;95%CI 1.06-1. 21;smoking:OR,1. 16;95%CI 1. 11-1. 22;and diabetes:OR,1. 30;95%CI 1. 24-1. 37). Carotid stenosis rate≥50%,hypertension:OR,1. 78;95%CI 1.55-2. 03;atrial fibrillation:OR,1. 59;95%CI 1. 39-1. 81;smoking:OR,1. 33;95%CI 1. 20-1. 48;and diabetes:OR,1. 30;95%CI 1. 17-1. 45. Simple obesity did not increase the incidences of carotid atherosclerotic plaque and carotid artery stenosis ≥50%(OR,0. 78, 0.83;95%CI 0. 75-0. 82 ,0. 75-0. 92,respectively). Conclusions Neck vascular ultrasound can be used as a valuable means for screening high-risk population and detecting risk factors of stroke. It has an important clinical significance for the early diagnosis and treatment of carotid atherosclerosis disease.

Objective To explore the feasibility of the perforator-based intermediate dorsal pedal flap with vessels of cutaneous nerve nutrition for repair of soft tissue defects of the forefoot.Methods A retrospective case series study was performed for seven cases of soft tissue defects of the forefoot hospitalized between February 2013 and January 2017.There were five males and two females,with a mean age of 38 years (range,18-73 years).Injury regions were lateral plantar skin defect in the forefoot in three cases,dorsal skin defect in the third webbed toe in two cases and proximal dorsal skin defect in the fourth toe in two cases.The defect area was about 2.5 cm × 1.5 cm-4.5 cm × 2.0 cm.The perforator-based intermediate dorsal pedal flap with vessels of cutaneous nerve nutrition was designed on the lateral dorsum of the foot and then was incised and transferred to repair the forefoot wound based on its surgical anatomy.The time of surgery and the amount of intraoperative blood loss were recorded.An observation was done on feeling,appearance,texture,blood supply and survival of the flap as well as swelling,hypertrophic scar,itching,paralysis of the skin grafting area.The recovery of the activity function was assessed by American Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) score.Results The surgery time was 1.0-1.5 h (mean,1 h),and intraoperative bleeding was about 50 ml (range,30-100 ml).Seven cases of perforator-based dorsal medial skin flap with vessels of cutaneous nerve nutrition all survived,with early wound healing.After 2 to 15 months follow-up,two-point discrimination of flaps was 9-15 mm(average,12.5 mm).Skin flaps were with excellent texture and without swelling,the color of which was close to normal color with good appearance.The postoperative foot did not have bone resorption,wound infection,tendon adhesion,line-type or flaky scar left locally,lower limb walking dysfunction or other complications.Patients were satisfied with the functions of donor and recipient sites and the appearance of the flap.Conclusions Perforation-based dorsal flap with vessels of cutaneous nerve nutrition has high survival rate,satisfaction of appearance and fast recovery of recipient site,with no obvious foot pain,limitation of joint movement or other complications,and therefore is a reliable method to repair soft tissue defects in forefoot.

Objective To analyze the role of telehealth?based dialysis registration systems in real?time and dynamic reflection of renal anemia in hemodialysis (HD) patients, and discuss the prospect of its application in dialysis registration management. Methods The Red China project was to build up a dialysis registration system based on the WeChat mobile terminal platform. Demographic and baseline laboratory parameters such as age, gender, primary disease, dialysis age, creatinine were recorded in this system. Hemoglobin (Hb) level was monthly recorded. The platform generated Hb statistics report for each HD center monthly, including the detection rate, target rate and the distribution level of Hb, and released it to physicians through the WeChat terminal of mobile phone. After that, physicians could change the treatment of anemia individually on basis of this report. Here the demographic and baseline laboratory parameters, the detection rate, target rate, the average level and the distribution of Hb from June 2015 to October 2017 after the project launched were analyzed. Results From June 2015 to October 2017, 8392 maintenance HD patients from 28 HD centers in Shanghai were enrolled, of whom 5059(60.3％) were male.The average rate age was (60.5 ± 13.7) years old. Baseline average Hb was (108.3±16.0) g/L. Baseline detection rate and target rate were 54.2％and 47.5％, respectively. After 28 months follow?up, the detection rate of Hb increased from 54.2％ to 73.6％ (P<0.001), the target rate of Hb increased from 47.5％ to 56.1％ (P<0.001), and the level of average Hb rose from (108.3±16.0) g/L to (110.7±16.0) g/L. The difference between average Hb in two consecutive months was less than 1.3 g/L. Conclusions The telehealth?based dialysis registration system can timely report the anemia situation of HD patients, which may improve the awareness rate of anemia, the degree of attention and the compliance of anemia monitoring, so as to improve the detection rate and target rate of Hb and reduce the fluctuation of Hb, which helps to maintain the HD patients to correct anemia in a timely, stable and long?term way. The telehealth?based dialysis registration system, as an improved mode of dialysis registration is a promising way for long?term management of renal anemia in dialysis patients.
