The development of multidrug resistance (MDR) to chemotherapy remains a major trouble in the treatment of tumors,and the mechanisms of MDR are complicated.The classic mechanisms involve the overexpression of multidrug resistance-associated protein,inhibition of cell apoptosis,abnormality of enzyme system and gene repair.Studies in recent years have shown that the mechanisms of MDR are also closely related with tumor stem cells,tumor microenvironment and abnormality of signal transduction pathways.

Objective:To raise awareness of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) combined with lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) in children.Methods:The clinical characteristics, diagnostic methods, treatment plans and prognosis of a child with AML combined with LBL who was admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in April 2016 were retrospectively analyzed, and the relevant literature was reviewed.Results:The patient was an 11-year-old boy with fever, abnormal hemogram and cervical lymph node enlargement as clinical manifestations. A biopsy of the cervical lymph node was performed and the patient was diagnosed as T-lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL). After the bone marrow morphology, immunology, cytogenetics and molecular biology (MICM) classification examination, the diagnosis was AML. The patient met the diagnostic criteria of two diseases at the same time, and thus he was confirmed as AML combined with T-LBL. AML chemotherapy regimens were given, and the patient achieved complete remission and disease-free survived.Conclusions:AML with LBL is extremely rare in children. The diagnosis mainly depends on MICM classification examination of bone marrow and pathological examination of lymph nodes. There is currently no standard treatment scheme, and the prognosis is extremely poor. AML chemotherapy followed by bridging hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the best treatment option for these patients.

A random sample survey was conducted in 17 community medical institutes in 4 districts in Beijing.Among an effective sample of 385 residents.47.5％ (n =183)of community residents chose community medical institutes for first contact care while 52.5％ (n =202) opted for class other hospitals.Residents with lower education levels tended to choose community medical institutes (P =0.01).And those with chronic diseases preferred to choose communities (P=0.00).

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of homeopathic reduction with minimally invasive adjustable plate in treatment of sacral fractures.Methods A retrospective case-control study was conducted to assess the data of 89 patients with sacral fractures treated from January 2013 to January 2015.There were 49 males and 40 females,with a mean age of 37.8 years (range,18-70 years).Denis classification was type Ⅰ in 24 patients,type Ⅱ in 48,and type Ⅲ in 17.Patients were divided into three groups according to fixation methods:homeopathic reduction with minimally invasive adjustable plate group (Group A,n =30),sacroiliac screw group (Group B,n =31) and iliolumbar rod group (Group C,n =28).Operation time,blood loss,intraoperative radiographic time,and complications were recorded.Reduction quality was assessed using the Matta criteria.Bone healing was evaluated based on X-ray appearance.Functional outcome was evaluated using the Majeed score at last tollow-up.Results Operation time was significantly lower in Group A [(109.3 ± 14.4) min] and Group B [(114.2 ± 17.7) min] than Group C [(126.8 ± 15.7)min] (P ＜ 0.05),but there was no significant difference between Groups A and B (P ＞ O.05).Blood loss was significantly lower in Group A [(433.3 ± 121.3)ml] and Group B [(461.3 ± 130.8)ml] than Group C [(785.7 ±205.0)ml] (P ＜0.05),but there was no significant difference between Groups A and B (P ＞ 0.05).Radiographic time was (5.6 ± 1.9) s in Group A,(13.4 ± 3.1)s in Group B,and (8.4 ± 2.5)s in Group C,showing significant difference among the three groups (P ＜ 0.05).Excellence rate of Matta score in Group A [70％ (21/30)] and Group C [86％ (24/28)] was higher than that in Group B [32％ (10/31)],but the there was no significant difference between Group A and C (P ＞ 0.05).Fracture healing was found in all patients and no nonunion was observed.Excellent rate of Majeed score in Group A [80％ (24/30)] and Group C [82％ (23/28)] was higher than that in Group B [54％ (17/31)],but the there was no significant difference between Groups A and C (P ＞0.05).Complication rate in Group B [29％ (9/31)] and GroupC [29％ (8/28)] were higher than that in Group C [3％ (1/30)],but the there was no significant difference between Groups B and C (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion For sacral fractures,homeopathic reduction with minimally invasive adjustable plate can reduce operation time and intraoperative radiographic time,improve reduction rate and lower incidence of complications.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate a new way to yield plenty of high purity olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) and its biocompatibility with appropriate scaffolds. METHODS: OECs were prepared from neonatal Wister rats and co-cultured with poly [LA-co-(Glc-alt-Lys)] (PLGL). Its contact angle, adherent rate, and activity rate were tested. RESULTS: The contact angle of poly (D, L-lactic acid) (PDLLA) (84.5 degree+/-1.5 degree) was significantly higher than that of PLGL (52.6 degree+/-0.8 degree), the adherent rate of PLGL (80%) was significantly higher than that of the PDLLA (57%), and the activity rate of PLGL (88%) was much higher than that of the PDLLA (76%). CONCLUSION PLGL possesses better hydrophilicity and biocompatibility than PDLLA, and it can provide a better cell growth circumstance which is helpful for the effective treatment of nerve injury.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment and prognosis of children with leukemia secondary to malignant solid tumor.Methods:From January 2012 to January 2022, a total of 2 275 children under 15 years of age with malignant solid tumor were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University.Six children diagnosed with secondary leukemia after follow-up to August 1, 2022 were selected as the study objects.Their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed and the literature was reviewed.Results:(1)A total of 2 275 children with malignant solid tumors included 1 369 males and 906 females.There were 6 children with secondary leukemia, with an incidence rate of 0.26%, including 4 males and 2 females.The age of onset of solid tumor was 5.5(2.8, 9.7)years, and the age of secondary leukemia was(9.1±3.9)years, and the interval between them was(26.2±17.3)months.(2)Malignant solid tumor types: according to the time of secondary leukemia, there were hip malignant rhabdomyoma in 1 case, intracranial medulloblastoma in 2 cases, intracranial and pelvic malignant germinoma in 1 case respectively, and pancreatic blastoma in 1 case.Intracranial lesion biopsy was performed in 1 case, and tumor resection was performed in the other 5 cases.Three patients with intracranial tumors underwent local tumor bed, whole brain and spinal radiotherapy.All the 6 children received chemotherapy, and the main chemotherapy drugs were doxorubicin, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, platinum, ifosfamide, etoposide, bleomycin, temozolomide, etc.Complete remission was achieved in 3 cases, partial remission in 1 case, stable disease in 1 case, and disease progression in 1 case.(3)The secondary leukemia types were as follows: acute myeloid leukemia(AML)M5 in 3 cases, M1 in 1 case, M2 in 1 case, and acute B-lymphoblastic leukemia(B-ALL)in 1 case.All six cases refused hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT).One case with B-ALL gave up after receiving hydroxyurea and dexamethasone.Five cases with AML received chemotherapy according to the AML-2006 Protocol of Hematology Group of Pediatrics Society of Chinese Medical Association.The outcome of the disease was as follows: 2 cases died early, 4 cases achieved complete remission after 1 ~ 2 courses of chemotherapy, among which 2 cases did not continue treatment after 3 courses of chemotherapy due to pulmonary infection, deep mycosis, osteomyelitis, etc, and then recurred and died.By the end of follow-up, 2 cases survived and continued treatment, of which 1 case relapsed.After the diagnosis of secondary leukemia, the 1-year overall survival rate of the 6 cases was(33±26)%.Conclusion:Leukemia secondary to malignant solid tumors in children is rare and mostly occurs in older children.The pathogenesis is related to genotoxic injury caused by exposure to chemotherapy or radiotherapy, and the prognosis is unfavourable.HSCT after chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy is the best treatment strategy.

Osteofascial compartment syndrome (OFCS) is clinically common and is well known to orthopedic surgeons.Clinicians attach great importance to OFCS because of its severe clinical consequences,and decompression of fascial compartment is often performed in emergency treatment.This article reviews the literature on the threshold of fascial compartment decompression proposed by many scholars in the past and discusses the problems in the clinical diagnosis of acute compartment syndrome,especially the inconsistent pressure thresholds as the indication for emergency decompression surgery.By observing calf fractures patients with tension blister,we found that the pressure of fascia decreased sharply upon the appearance of blisters.Meanwhile,the swelling gradually subsided as well as the clinical manifestations of pain and parasthsia.In view of the uncertainty of various thresholds of fascial decompression and self-decompression,the concepts of myofascial self-release law and muscle-swelling syndrome were first proposed.The author believes that when intracompartmental pressure rises to a point,some unknown mechanisms of fascia can achieve self-decompression.Therefore,no compartment syndrome will take place.We also emphasize that the ' muscle-swelling syndrome'should be strictly distinguished from the soft tissue necrosis caused by crush syndrome and acute limb vascular injury,so as to provide more precise treatment.We believe that without external restrictions such as casts,splints and compression bandages,the muscle-swelling syndrome can achieve self decompression by releasing the pressure in the compartment through tension blisters,and there is no need for fasciotomy.

The Letournel-Judet classification system for acetabular fractures is widely used, but there are still some shortcomings, such as incomplete classification and confusion of classification concepts, which cannot effectively guide the treatment. Professor Hou Zhiyong proposed and elaborated an improved acetabular fracture classification system based on the concept of three columns of acetabulum. However, the credibility and repeatability of the classification still lacked validation from clinical data. In this regard, the author included 463 patients with relatively complete imaging data admitted to Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University and Honghui Hospital affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University Medical College in the past five years. Four trauma orthopedists classified the patients according to the modified classification method of acetabular fracture. After two months, the original sequence of imaging data was disrupted and re-classified by the same trauma orthopedists. The consistency of the classification was evaluated by Kappa test and compared with Letournel-Judet classification. The results showed that credibility and repeatability of the modified classification were higher than Letournel-Judet classification, suggesting the feasibility of clinical application.

Objective:To compare clinical characteristics of orthopedic trauma patients between the patients during pandemic of corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and those beyond the pandemic period and analyze the factors influencing fracture site changes during pandemic of COVID-19.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was made on data of 1 048 patients with fractures hospitalized in Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University treated from January 20, 2020 to February 25, 2020 (pandemic period group) and from January 31, 2019 to March 9, 2019 (beyond pandemic period group). There were 232 patients in pandemic period group, including 121 males (52.2%) and 111 females (47.8%), with age range of 1-100 years [(47.9±26.3)years]. There were 816 patients in beyond pandemic period group, including 454 males (55.6%) and 363 females (44.5%), with age range of 1-96 years [(47.3±23.9)years]. Fracture sites were compared between the two groups. Age, sex, occupation, cause of injury, history of basic medical diseases, location of fracture, residence, marital status and other factors among the patients with low limb fractures and other fractures in pandemic period group were analyzed using the Logistic regression analysis.Results:Incidence of limb fractures in pandemic period group (69.4%, 161/232) was significantly higher than that in beyond pandemic period group (59.8%, 488/816) ( P<0.05), while the incidence of whole-body multiple fractures in pandemic period group (8.2%, 19/232) was significantly lower than that in beyond pandemic period group (13.6%, 111/816) ( P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that female, middle or older age, farmers, low-energy injury, basic medical disease, staying at home were risk factors for limb fracture during pandemic ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed low-energy injury ( OR=8.264, P<0.01) was an independent risk factor for limb fracture during pandemic. Conclusions:Compared with the beyond pandemic period, some location of fracture is changed and incidence of limb fracture is increased during pandemic. Low energy injury is an independent risk factor of limb fracture during the pandemic.

Objective:To explore the epidemiological characteristics of inpatients with tibial pilon fracture in The Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University from 2016 to 2019.Methods:The data of all the patients who had been hospitalized for pilon fracture from January 2016 to December 2019 in The Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University were collected using the medical image computer archiving and transmission system and the medical record query system. The patients' age, gender, occupation, residence, season, cause of injury, Rüedi-Allg?wer classification, and AO classification were analyzed.Results:A total of 234 inpatients with tibial pilon fracture were collected, including 179 males and 55 females, with a ratio of male to female of 3.3∶ 1. The prevalence age ranged from 41 to 50 years in male patients (31.3%, 56/179) and from 51 to 60 years in female patients (25.5%, 14/55). In the 234 patients, farmers (101 cases, 43.2%), rural area (166 cases, 70.9%) and spring season (77 cases, 32.9%) accounted for a higher proportion. The proportions of high-altitude falling (41.0%, 96/234) and high-energy injury (61.5%, 144/234) were the highest. Of the 234 patients by the Rüedi-Allg?wer classification, 23 (9.8%) had type Ⅰ fracture, 90 (38.5%) type Ⅱ fracture, and 121 (51.7%) type Ⅲ fracture, with type Ⅲ fracture prevalent in males (58.1%, 104/179) and type Ⅱ fracture prevalent in females (16.4%, 9/55). Of the 234 patients by the AO classification, 131 (56.0%) had type 43B fracture and 103 (44.0%) type 43C fracture, with a higher proportion of type 43B fractures in women (67.3%, 37/55) than in men (52.5%, 94/179). In type 43B fractures, type 43B3 (43.5%, 57/131) and type 43B3.3 (75.4%, 43/57) were the most common; in type 43C fractures, type 43C3 (74.8%, 77/103) and type 43C3.3 (51.9%, 40/77) were the most common.Conclusions:In the recent 4 years in The Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University, pilon fractures increased year by year and occurred more frequently in spring. They were more common in farmers and in the rural areas. They prevailed in the patients aged from 41 to 50 years. The Rüedi-Allg?wer type Ⅲ fractures and the AO type 43B fractures were the most common.
