Objective:To develop a new quantitative method without calibration set for near-infrared spectroscopy(NIR). Methods:The new calibration-free NIR method was based on a spectrum of the sample and a spectrum of the mixture.The similar intervals between the spectra of the sample and the mixture were obtained through second derivation,differential spectra and calculation of similarity.Then statistical quantitative analysis was performed.Results:The contents of 3 components in 3 samples were determined with the new method;the average recovery was 100.9% and the relative standard deviation was 6.1% (n=9).Conclusion:Satisfactory results can be obtained by this new method without traditional calibration set.The new method provides an alternative for the quantitative analysis in NIRs and has a promising future.

Background Triamcinolone acetonide (TA) is often used in the treatment of uveitis and fundus disease,but whether it has toxic effect to normal tissue around eyes is unclear.Objective The aim of this study was to explore the adverse and toxic effects of TA on the periorbitally normal tissue following the periocular injection.Methods Twenty-seven New Zealand albino rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group,normal saline solution group and blank control group.TA was periocularly injected twice (20 mg for each) at 1-month interval in the rabbits of the experimental group,and 0.5 ml normal saline solution was used in the same way in the rabbits of the normal saline solution group.Not any drug was used in the blank group.The rabbits were sacrificed 1 month and 2 months,3 months after the secondary injection.For the preparation of the specimens of extraocular muscles,peribulbus adipose tissue,lacrimal gland and optic nerve.Hematoxylin and eosin staining of the specimens was performed to examine the the pathological change under the optical microscope,and the ultrastructural of peribulbus tissues was observed under the transmission electron microscope.Results No statistically significant change was found in IOP among various time points and groups (Fgroup =0.952,P =0.881 ; Ftime =7.297,P =0.411).The hyphological structures and ultrastructure of extraocular muscles,peribulbus adipose tissue,lacrimal gland and optic nerve were normal in the rabbits of the normal saline solution group and the blank control group.However,the optical microscopy showed varying degrees of atrophy or dissolving in the extraocular muscle fibers,the increase of glandular epithelial cells and enlargement of nuclei in the lacrimal gland as well as visible disorder arrangement of nerve fibers,vacuoles degeneration and the decrease of glial cells in optial nerve tissue in the rabbits of the experimental group from 1 month though 3 months after the secondary injection.Under the transmission electron microscope,the muscle stripes,bright band and dark band were incompletely disappeared,and expansionary sarcoplasmic reticulum and oval nucleus at the inferior to sarolemma were seen in the extraocular muscles.In addition,swelling lacrimal gland epithelial cells,thickening nuclear membrane and more organelles were exhibited in the lacrimal gland.In the optic never tissue,uneven myelin,space between axons and myelin,lamellar separation and degeneration also were revealed in the rabbits of the experimental group after injection of TA.Peribulbus adipose tissue was near normal both by optical microscope and transmission electron microscope in the experimental group.Conclusions The periocular injection of TA dose not elevated the IOP.However,it will result in the histogical and ultrastructural damages of extraocular muscles,lacrimal gland and optic nerve.

An optimized two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-DE) system for analyzing plant proteins was developed by evaluating different reagents and concentrations used in the sample extraction solutions and lysis buffers. Two main sample preparation methods, referred to as trichloroacetic acid (TCA)-acetone method and phenol extraction-ammonium acetate/methanol (phenol-NH4Ac/methanol) precipitation method, were compared. Four ecotypes of reed plants (Phragmites communis Trin.) from the desert region of north-western China were used as experimental materials: (1) swamp reed (SR) which grows in water about 1 m deep; (2) dune reed (DR) which grows on 5～10 m high sand dunes; (3) heavy salt meadow reed (HSMR) which grows on low-lying salt flats; and (4) light salt meadow reed (LSMR) which grows in the transition area between DR and HSMR growing areas. The optimized phenol-NH4Ac/methanol precipitation method consisted of extracting leaf proteins of different ecotypes of reed with water-saturated phenol and then precipitating with a 5-fold volume of 0.1 mol/L NH4Ac in methanol, followed by dissolving in the lysis buffer. The optimized protein lysis buffer consisted of 7 mol/L urea, 2 mol/L thiourea, 4% CHAPS, 2% Ampholine(pH 3.5～10∶pH 5～8 = 1∶4) and 65 mmol/L DTT. The prepared protein sample (80 ?g) was then separated by 2-DE gel and detected by silver staining method. This improved 2-DE system resulted in a 2-D protein profile of higher resolution and higher protein yields as analyzed by PDQuest software. Good results were also obtained when this 2-DE system was used in 2-D analysis of proteins from other plant materials, such as rice leaves, indicating that it is a suitable 2-DE system for analyzing leaf proteins of different plant species.

BACKGROUND: There are many methods for the treatment of femoral head necrosis, such as core decompression, bone graft, arthroplasty and joint replacement, and each of which has its own shortcomings. So, percutaneous bal oon angioplasty combined with coral artificial bone provides a new attempt for the treatment of femoral head necrosis. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of percutaneous bal oon angioplasty combined with coral artificial bone on femoral head necrosis repair. METHODS: Twenty-four Duroc piglets were enrol ed to establish bilateral femoral head necrosis models by liquid nitrogen freezing method. Then, model piglets were randomly treated with percutaneous bal oon angioplasty combined with injectable coral artificial bone (experimental group) or bone cement (control group) on one affected side, and meanwhile, given no treatment on the contralateral side (blank control group). At 2, 4, 8 and 16 weeks after surgery, X-ray examination, biomechanical test and histological detection were conducted. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: X-ray showed that at 16 weeks after surgery, numerous new bones could be found in the experimental group and there was a fuzzy boundary between the artificial bone and surrounding tissues; no new bone formed in the control group, and the boundary was clear; in the blank control group, the surface of the femoral head col apsed, and bone trabeculae arranged disorderly, which were seriously destroyed. And in the histological detection at 16 weeks after surgery, there were numerous bone trabecula and osteoblasts around the coral bone in the experimental group, and the coral artificial bone almost dissolved; in the control group, bone cement was in an irregular shape and no bone trabecula formed; in the blank control group, bone trabecula were damaged in the col apsed area, whose structure was in disorder. Additional y, biomechanical changes in the experimental group were significantly better than those in the other two groups at different time points after surgery (P < 0.05). In conclusion, percutaneous bal oon angioplasty combined with coral artificial bone can repair femoral head necrosis by promoting new bone formation.

Objective To evaluate the clinical practical value of the golden angle radial sparse parallel(GRASP)technology in the MR imaging quality of lung cancer under free-breathing state.Methods The imaging data of 30 lung cancer patients diagnosed with CT screening were collected by using a large-aperture 3.0T MR scanner.All patients underwent routine Cartesian breath-hold volume interpolation(BH-VIBE)scanning,then free-breathing dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging(DCE-MRI)scanning based on GRASP technology,and another repetitive BH-VIBE scanning.The MR imaging quality was independently evaluated by two experienced thoracic radiologists including overall image quality,lesion outline,artifact grade and diagnostic confidence,mean-while,the CT images of the patient at the same time were used as a reference.The sequence information on MR images was also pro-cessed blindly.Results The GRASP sequence could effectively eliminate the interference of motion artifacts such as respiration and cardiac large vessel beats,and the image quality,lesion outline,artifact grade,and diagnostic confidence of the GRASP sequence were significantly better than the BH-VIBE(P＜0.01).The image quality of the GRASP sequence was more satisfactory with clea-rer tumor boundary and more details.Conclusion Free-breathing high-temporal-spatial resolution GRASP technology has better image quality than traditional BH-VIBE scanning,and it is a reliable method for high-resolution imaging of lung cancer.

Objective:To construct a targeted and accurate evaluation system for facial and cervical wounds and scars of burn patients.Methods:The method combining literature analysis and survey research was adopted, and the basic principles of item system construction were followed. From June to August 2020, based on the aesthetic standards of facial and cervical plastic surgery, the topographic map assessment system for facial and cervical wounds and scars of burn patients was preliminarily formed, focusing on the assessment of wounds and scars in the necks and faces of patients after burns. In September 2020, 38 experts in the relevant fields were consulted in advance and the questionnaire was revised according to the experts' opinions. From December 2020 to March 2021, the Delphi method was applied to conduct inquiry by correspondence with 35 experts in relevant fields from Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Beijing, and other cities, who met the inclusion criteria, and the items were screened and established. The effective recovery rate of inquiry questionnaire was calculated to determine the level of enthusiasm of experts, the average authority coefficient of all items was calculated to determine the level of expert authority, the average importance expert score, the average coefficient of variation, and the average full score rate of all the third-level items were calculated to determine the concentration of expert opinions, the average coefficients of variation and Kendall's harmony coefficients of the importance, sensitivity, and operability expert scores of all the third-level items were calculated to determine the degree of coordination of expert opinions. The Kendall's harmony coefficients for the importance, sensitivity, and operability expert scores of all the third-level items were statistically analyzed with chi-square test.Results:Among the 35 experts consulted by Delphi method, mainly were male, aged (48±10) years, with 8-38 years of working experience, mainly with associate senior titles and above, all with a bachelor's degree or above education background, and of whom 11 were burn experts, 7 were wound repair experts, 4 were plastic surgery experts, and 13 were rehabilitation medicine experts. Finally, a topographic map assessment system for facial and cervical wounds and scars of burn patients was formed, including 4 first-level items, 21 second-level items, 40 third-level items, and 1 mask. The effective recovery rate of inquiry questionnaire was 100% (35/35). The average authority coefficient of all items was 0.89. The average importance expert score was 4.67, the average coefficient of variation of importance expert score was 0.01, and the average full score rate of all the third-level items was 86.3%. The average coefficients of variation of the importance, sensitivity, and operability expert scores of all the third-level items were 0.01, 0.01, and 0.02, respectively. The Kendall's harmony coefficients for the importance, sensitivity, and operability expert scores of all the third-level items were statistically significant (with χ2 values of 1 201.53, 745.67, and 707.07, respectively , P<0.05). Conclusions:The established topographic map assessment system for facial and cervical wounds and scars of burn patients has high scientificity and reliability, which can be used for the evaluation of facial and neck wounds or scars in burn patients.

Hepatosplenic candidiasis (HSC) is a rare type of candidiasis that can occur in patients with hematologic malignancies, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. At present, there is still a lack of studies on HSC in patients with hematologic disorders. Based on The Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Invasive Fungal Disease in Patients with Hematological Disorders and Cancers (the 6th revision), We retrospectively analyzed the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with HSC treated in Peking University Institute of Hematology from 2008 to 2022. Finally, eighteen patients were included, with 1 (5.6%) proven, 2 (11.1%) probable, and 15 (83.3%) possible HSC. Among them, 3 (16.7%) patients occurred after haploid hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and 15 (83.3%) patients occurred after chemotherapy. 6 (33.3%) patients had positive blood cultures, including 4 cases of Candida tropicalis and 2 cases of Candida albicans. At 4 weeks of antifungal therapy, 10 (58.8%) patients achieved partial response (PR), At 8 weeks, 1 (6.3%) patients achieved complete response and 10 (62.5%) patients achieved PR. At 6 months after diagnosis, 3 (16.7%) patients died of hematopoietic recurrence, and none of them died of HSC. As a rare fungal infection disease, HSC has a low positive rate of microbiological and histological examinations, a persistent treat cycle, and has difficulty in remission, reminding us of the need for vigilance in patients with hematopoietic disorders and persistent fever.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of gallbladder cancer (GBC) patients in China.Methods:This retrospective multicenter cohort study enrolled 3 528 consecutive GBC patients diagnosed between January 2010 to December 2017 in 15 hospitals from 10 provinces. There were 1 345 (38.12%) males and 2 183 (61.88%) females.The age of diagnosis was (63.7±10.8) years old (range: 26 to 99 years old) .There were 213 patients (6.04%) in stage 0 to Ⅰ, whereas 1 059 (30.02%) in stage Ⅱ to Ⅲ, 1 874 (53.12%) in stage Ⅳ, and 382 (10.83%) unavailable. Surgery was performed on 2 255 patients (63.92%) . Three hundred and thirty-six patients received chemotherapy or radiotherapy (9.52%; of which 172 were palliative); 1 101 (31.21%) received only supportive treatment.The patient source, treatment and surgery, pathology, concomitant gallstone, and prognosis were analyzed.Results:Among the 3 528 GBC patients, 959 (27.18%) were from East China, 603 (17.09%) from East-North China, 1 533 (43.45%) from Central China, and 433(12.27%) from West China. Among the 1 578 resectable tumor, 665 (42.14%) underwent radical surgery, 913 (57.86%) underwent surgery that failed to follow the guidelines.Eight hundred and ninety-one (56.46%) patients were diagnosed before surgery, 254 (16.10%) during surgery, and 381 (24.14%) after surgery (time point of diagnosis couldn′t be determined in 52 patients) .Among the 1 578 patients with resectable tumor, 759 (48.10%) had concomitant gallstone.Among the 665 patients underwent radical surgery, 69 (10.4%) showed positive resection margin, 510 (76.7%) showed negative resection margin, and 86 (12.9%) unreported margin status.The 5-year overall survival rate (5yOS) for the 3 528-patient cohort was 23.0%.The 5yOS for patients with resectable tumor was 39.6%, for patients with stage ⅣB tumor without surgery was 5.4%, and for patients with stage ⅣB tumor underwent palliative surgery was 4.7%.Conclusions:More than half GBC patients in China are diagnosed in stage Ⅳ.Curative intent surgery is valuable in improving prognosis of resectable GBC.The treatment of GBC needs further standardization.Effective comprehensive treatment for GBC is in urgent need.
