Objective To observe the efficacy of high-energy red light combined with human-like collagen dressing in treatment of facial corticosteroid addictive dermatitis.Methods Eighty-three patients with facial corticosteroid addictive dermatitis were divided into treatment group (42 cases) and control group (41 cases) by random digits table method.All patients in 2 groups were treated with ebastine 10 mg,once a day,and vitamin E cream,twice a day.At the same time,the patients in control group were given human-like collagen dressing,once a day in the first week,then 3 times/week.On the basis of control treatment,the patients in treatment group were irradiated with high-energy red light 10 min in face,2-3 times/week.The treatment of both groups lasted for 12 weeks.The symptoms,skin lesions and untoward reaction were observed after treatment of 4,8 and 12 weeks.Results After treatment of 4 weeks,there was no statistical difference in the effective rate between 2 groups (P ＞ 0.05).After treatment of 8 and 12 weeks,the effective rates in treatment group were significantly higher than those in control group [83.3％(35/42) vs.58.5％ (24/41),90.5％ (38/42) vs.65.9％ (27/41)],there were statistical differences (P ＜ 0.05).No untoward reaction was found in 2 groups.Conclusion High-energy red light combined with human-like collagen dressing is effective and safe in treatment of facial corticosteroid addictive dermatitis.

Objective To investigate the incidence and related risk factors of delirium in elderly patients with hip frac-ture. Methods From October 2014 to February 2017, 306 patients with femoral neck fracture or intertrochanteric fracture more than 65 years old underwent elective hip arthroplasty (hip arthroplasty, proximal femoral nail fixation) were retrospective-ly analyzed. Patients' general information was recorded: age, sex, body mass index (BMI), history of diabetes mellitus, history of coronary heart disease, cerebral infarction, preoperative biochemical tests, left ventricular ejection fraction, thrombosis of both lower extremities, intraoperative status (ASA score, NYHA heart function score, anesthesia, anesthesia time, etc.), periop-erative blood transfusion, biochemical examination on the first day after surgery, perioperative albumin consumption, etc.; ac-cording to whether delirium happened after surgery, those patients were divided into delirium group and non-delirium Group and analyzed the incidence of postoperative delirium. Using univariate logistic regression analysis screened factors associated with postoperative delirium. The results were entered into the multivariate logistic regression analysis, screening the high risk factors for postoperative delirium.Results The incidence of delirium was 59(19.29%) after perioperative hip fracture, includ-ing 23 males and 36 females, ranging in age from 70 to 93 years with an average of (81.9±5.4) years. 247 cases had no deliri-um,including 81 males and 166 females,aged 65-96 years,with an average(76.4±8.1)years.The factors of age,length of hos-pital stay, days before surgery, preoperative hematocrit, perioperative albumin consumption, perioperative blood transfusion, preoperative leukocyte levels, preoperative albumin levels, preoperative creatinine, urea level, Mallampati classification (Mar-kov grade), cardiac function score (NYHA score), ASA score, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative leukocyte level, left ven-tricular ejection fraction, previous cerebral infarction, history of coronary heart disease, and diabetes were statistically signifi-cant different; univariate logistic regression analysis showed that the factors of age, ASA score, history of diabetes mellitus, length of hospitalization, and perioperative albumin consumption were demonstrated to have relationship with the occurrence of postoperative delirium. Multivariate regression analysis showed that age, history of diabetes and ASA score are the high risk factors of postoperative delirium.Conclusion Age,history of diabetes mellitus and ASA score are risk factors of delirium in el-derly patients with hip fracture.Those patients older than 75 years,with the history of diabetes mellitus or ASA score> 2 points were at higher risk of postoperative delirium,which prolongs hospitalization and increases protein consumption.

Objective To observe the effect of Chaijin-Huayu decoction combined with endoscopic minimally invasive for gallbladder polyposis and its effect on quality of life.Methods A total of 91 patients with gallbladder polyposis were selected from March 2014 to early March 2017 outpatients and wards of Hebei Provincial Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital.According to the method of random number table,the paitents were randomly divided into the observation group (n=46) and the control group (n=45).After three courses of treatment,the total effective rate,TCM symptom score and quality of life were observed in both groups,and the postoperative complications of the two groups were compared.Results After three courses of treatment,the total effective rate of the observation group was 91.3％ (42/46),while that of the control group was 88.9％ (40/45).There was no significant difference between the two groups (x2=0.149,P=0.592).In the observation group,the scores of subcardiac pycnosis and belching,right flank distended pain and burp were lower than those of the control group (t were 2.431,3.560 and 2.891 respectively,all P＜0.05).In the SF-36 scale,the scores of mental health,social function,physical pain,physiological function,emotional function,vitality,physiological function and overall health of the observation group were higher than those of the control group (t were 2.342,2.831,2.765,2.545,2.485,2.650,2.582,2.325 respectively,all P＜0.05);The incidence of surgical complications of the observation group was 2.2％ (1/46),while that of the control group was 17.8％ (8/45),and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (x2=0.149,P＞0.05).Conclusions Chaijin-Huayu decoction combined with minimally invasive choledochoplasty could relieve symptoms,improve quality of life and reduce postoperative complications in patients with gallbladder polyposis.

Objective To investigate the role and mechanism of nico-tinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 4 (NAPHD oxidase 4,Nox4)-mediated reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation on high-dose dexamethasone (DEX) induced apoptosis in osteoblasts.Methods According to culture conditions,3rd passage of murine osteoblastic MC3T3-E 1 cells were divided into control group,Dexamethasone group,Dexamethasone+NAC (N-acetyl-L-cysteine) group,NAC group,Dexamethasone+DPI (Diphenyleneiodonium) group and DPI group.24 hours after culture,the morphology of osteoblasts was observed by inverted phase contrast microscope.Cell viability was determined by MTT assay.The generation of ROS in osteoblasts was measured using a fluorescent probe DCFH-DA.The apoptosis of each group was observed through Hoechst staining.The mRNA level and protein expression of Nox4 were detected by real-time quantitative PCR and Western Blot.In addition,after silence of Nox4 with small interfering RNA (siRNA),the ROS generation was further detected by a fluorescent probe DCFH-DA.Results After treatment with 1000 nmol DEX for 24 hours,compared to control group,the results of inverted phase contrast microscope and MTT showed that osteoblasts in DEX group exhibited more obvious signs of shrinkage and deformation with decreased cell viability.After intervene with NAC and DPI,morphology of osteoblasts was good with increased viability of osteoblasts.Compared to control group (5.86％± 0.28％),the production of ROS in DEX group (45.14％±1.49％) was significantly increased (P=0.000).The apoptotic rates in DEX group (29.60％± 1.52％) was significantly increased compared with control group (4.12％±0.67％) (P=0.000).Compared to DEX group,the production of ROS generation in DEX+NAC group (28.06％±1.61％) and DEX+DPI group (23.70％±1.28％) was significantly decreased (P=0.000).It presented that NAC or DPI significantly decreased the formation of ROS.Compared to DEX group,the apoptotic rate in DEX+NAC group (8.94％± 1.47％) and DEX+DPI group (12.96％±2.03％) was significantly decreased (P=0.000).It presented that NAC or DPI significantly decreased osteoblast apoptosis.In addition,the Nox4 mRNA level in DEX group was 2.67-fold compared with control group (t=-10.301,P=0.009).The difference had statistically significance.The protein expression of Nox4 in DEX group was 2.37-fold compared with control group (t=-15.542,P=0.004).The difference has statistically significance.After silence of Nox4 by siRNA,the generation of ROS in DEX+Nox4 siRNA group (14.53％± 1.00％) was decreased by 16.92％ compared with DEX group 31.45％±0.72％ (P=0.000).The difference had statistically significance.Conclusion Nox4-mediated ROS generation plays an important role in osteoblasts apoptosis induced by high-dose dexamethasone.It provided us the new target in the management of Nox4 to provide possible therapy for steroid-induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head (SANFH).

Objective:To explore the effect of long-term exposure to ambient particulate matter (PM 10) on the prevalence of diabetes and fasting plasma glucose (FPG). Methods:The subjects of the study were from the baseline population of "Jinchang Cohort", and 24 285 subjects were finally included after excluding incomplete home address information and diabetic diagnosis information. The demographic characteristics, lifestyle and health status of the survey subjects were collected through questionnaire, physical examination and laboratory tests. ArcGIS software was used to match the nearest environmental monitoring stations for each subject according to residential address. Two-year average concentrations of PM 10 were calculated to estimate exposure level. The logistic regression and the multiple linear regression were conducted to assess the effects of ambient PM 10 on the prevalence of diabetes and FPG. The restricted cubic spline was used to quantify the dose-response relationship. Stratified analysis and effect modification analysis were also performed. Results:The age of 24 285 participants was (49.32±8.60) years, and the BMI was (24.22±6.09) kg/m 2. There were 13 950 (57.44%) males and 2 066 (8.51%) diabetic patients. After adjusting for confounders, for every 10 μg/m 3 increase in the average PM 10 concentration in the first two years of the survey, the prevalence of diabetes increased [ OR (95% CI) =1.05 (1.01-1.09)]and the FPG level elevated [β (95% CI) = 0.061 (0.047-0.076) mmol/L]. The results of the restricted cubic spline analysis showed a nonlinear relationship between PM 10 concentration and FPG level ( P<0.001). Further subgroup analysis showed that female [ OR (95% CI) =1.10 (1.03-1.18)], people over 50 years old [ OR (95% CI) =1.06 (1.02-1.11) ], subjects with family history of diabetes [ OR (95% CI) = 1.13 (1.04-1.23) ], and with hypertension [ OR (95% CI) = 1.07 (1.02-1.12) ] had a stronger association between the prevalence of diabetes and PM 10 exposure (all P interaction values were<0.05). The effects of PM 10 on FPG were more significant in people older than 50 years[β (95% CI) = 0.080 (0.050-0.109) mmol/L], with family history of diabetes [β (95% CI) = 0.087 (0.036-0.137) mmol/L], and hypertension [β (95% CI) = 0.077 (0.046-0.108) mmol/L] (all P interaction values were<0.05). Conclusions:Long-term exposure to ambient PM 10 increases the diabetes prevalence and FPG. People older than 50 years old, with family history of diabetes and hypertension could be more sensitive to the effects of PM 10 exposure.

People older than 50 years old, with family history of diabetes and hypertension could be more sensitive to the effects of PM 10 exposure.

Objective:To explore the risk factors of autogenous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) aneurysms (AVFAs) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods:The patients who used internal arteriovenous fistula (end to side anastomosis) of cephalic vein-radial artery at wrist as vascular access in Hainan Provincial People′s Hospital from June 1 to June 30, 2021 were selected as the research objects. The patients were divided into AVFAs group and non-AVFAs group according to whether AVF formed AVFAs. The clinical data and laboratory examination results between the two groups were compared. Binary logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors for the formation of AVFAs.Results:A total of 170 MHD patients were enrolled in this study, including 111 males (65.3%) and 59 females (34.7%), with age of (51.65±12.70) years old and dialysis age of (57.03±49.25) months. There were 33 cases in AVFAs group and 137 cases in non-AVFAs group. The incidence of AVFAs was 19.4%. Compared with non-AVFAs group, the proportion of males ( χ2=4.934, P=0.026) and the levels of serum uric acid ( t=2.547, P=0.012) and serum albumin ( t=2.122, P=0.010) in AVFAs group were higher; The age ( t=-2.210, P=0.028), the proportion of diabetes nephropathy ( χ2=11.788, P=0.001), systolic blood pressure ( t=-1.994, P=0.048) and total cholesterol ( t=-2.174, P=0.031) were lower; The diameter of anastomosis was wider ( Z=-3.224, P=0.001); Mantel-Haenszel chi square test analysis showed that dialysis age ( χ2=53.832, OR=0.518, P<0.001), AVF service time ( χ2=51.355, OR=0.516, P<0.001), and brachial artery blood flow ( χ2=25.315, OR=0.331, P<0.001) were correlated to the formation of AVFAs. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that males ( OR=10.005, 95% CI 1.875-53.394, P=0.007), longer dialysis age ( OR=1.341, 95% CI 1.104-1.628, P=0.003), longer AVF use time ( OR=1.187, 95% CI 1.002-1.405, P=0.047), higher brachial artery blood flow ( OR=1.002, 95% CI 1.000-1.004, P=0.028) and lower total cholesterol ( OR=0.388, 95% CI 0.172-0.875, P=0.022) were the independent risk factors for the formation of AVFAs. Conclusions:The incidence of AVFAs in MHD patients is 19.4%. Males, long dialysis age, long AVF use time, high brachial artery blood flow and low total cholesterol level are the independent risk factors for the formation of AVFAs.

Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is an autosomal recessive hereditary rare disease with high heterogeneity in clinical phenotypes, which can affect multiple systems, such as six fingers/digits deformity, mental impairment, retinopathy, polycystic kidney, etc, and is easily diagnosed according to a single system disease, resulting in misdiagnosis. The paper reports a case of BBS, diagnosed with "renal cyst, developmental delay, chondrosis, and left foot hexadactylism" at 5 years old, "anemia, renal insufficiency, distal renal tubule poisoning, renal osteodystrophy" at 7 years old. At 10 years old, the patient received hemodialysis treatment for uremia. Cloudy vision appeared in both eyes at 14 years old. Because of the prominent manifestation of kidney damage, the patient was misdiagnosed as "polycystic kidney" for a long time, and other systemic damages were ignored. The result of gene sequencing showed that chromosome 16 NM_031885.5 exon17 had one homozygous nonsense mutation. Therefore, the patient was accurately diagnosed as BBS. This paper is the first report of BBS in Li nationality in China. The relevant literature of BBS were reviewed to strengthen clinicians' understanding of the disease and improve patients' prognosis.

Objective To investigate the expression of long non-coding RNA(lncRNA),surfactant associated 1 pseudogene(SFTA1P)in lung squamous carcinoma and its effect on the biological functions of SFTA1P in lung squamous carcinoma cell lines.Methods Based on the cancer genome atlas(TCGA)database,the differential expression of SFTA1P in tumor and normal tissues were compared in patients diagnosed with lung squamous cell carcinoma.Then,the expression of SFTA1P was detected in human normal lung epithelial cell line BEAS-2B and lung squamous cell lines SK-MES-1 and H520 with real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR).SK-MES-1 and H520 cells with overexpression and/or knockdown of SFTA1P were constructed by transfecting the overexpression plasmids(pcDNA3.1-SFTA1P)and small interfering RNAs(si-SFTA1P-1 and si-SFTA1P-2).CCK-8 assay and Transwell assay were used to investigate the effect of SFTA1P on biological functions in lung squamous carcinoma cells.Differential gene expression analysis,correlation analysis and functional enrichment analysis were employed to explore the potential mechanism that SFTA1P may affect biological functions of lung squamous cells.Results Analysis of TCGA showed that the expression of SFTA1P was significantly lower in lung squamous cell carcinoma tissue than adjacent normal tissue(P＜0.05).RT-PCR results showed that the expression of SFTA1P was obviously lower in lung squamous carcinoma cells than the human normal lung epithelial cells(P＜0.05).And the expression level of SFTA1P was relatively lower in the SK-MES-1 cells than the H520 cells(P＜0.05).Overexpression of SFTA1P suppressed the proliferation,migration and invasion of lung squamous carcinoma cells(P＜0.05),while its knockdown promoted these abilities(P＜0.05).Differential gene expression analysis,correlation analysis and functional enrichment analysis indicated that SFTA1P may inhibit MYC,G2m checkpoints and E2f signaling pathways in lung squamous cell carcinoma.Conclusion SFTA1P shows anti-cancer function in lung squamous cell carcinoma,and it may affect the biological functions of lung squamous cell carcinoma cells through down-regulating MYC,G2m checkpoints and E2f signaling pathways.
