Objective To evaluate the efficacy of etanercept in active ankylosing spondylitis (AS) pa-tient for 48 weeks by tapering the dosage of etanercept every 12 weeks. Methods 52 patients with active AS were enrolled in this study , and 47 patients finished 48 Weeks of observation. 50 mg etanercept was applied subcutaneously once a week for 12 weeks , and was tapered to 50 mg every two weeks for another 12 weeks , and then 25 mg every two weeks for another 24 weeks. BASDAI, BASFI, BASMI, ASDAS, as well as Serum levels of CRP and ESR were doaunented at week 0, 12, 24 and 48, respectively. Result Among the 47 active AS patients, 40 (85.1%) were male, with mean disease duration of 4.1 ± 3.8 years. After 12 -week treatment with 50 mg etanercept weekly, the scores of BASDAI, BASFI, BASMI, ASDAS, as well as levels of ESR and CRP, declined significantly compared to the baseline (P < 0.05, respectively). Despite of tapering the dosage of etan-ercept gradually, most of the patients (87.2%, 41/47) kept in ASAS 40 response during the following 36 weeks. No severe adverse events were observed during the treatment period. Conclusion This study demonstrat-ed the clinical efficacy of etanercept in patients with active AS. A dosage reduction strategy could maintain the clinical efficacy of etanercept during 48 weeks , which indicates that gradually tapering etanercept might be a po-tential effective, economic and safe way for active AS patients.

Objective To explore the relationship between Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) and macrophage activation syndrome (MAS). Methods A total of 78 patients with AOSD who had completed medical information were included in this study. Eleven patients who were diagnosed as rheumatic disease associated hemophagocytic syndrome among 26 patients who had hemophagocytic syndrome with histological evidence consisted of the MAS group. Clinical and laboratory data were analyzed in 78 patients with AOSD and 11 patients with MAS. Results Among 78 cases of AOSD, 9 patients (12%) could be diagnosed as MAS but didn't have hemophagocytic histological evidence. In the 11 MAS cases with hemophagocytic phenomenon, 6 patients fulfilled the diagnostic criteria of AOSD, 2 cases with panniculitis, 1 case with SLE, 1 case of dermatomyositis and 1 case of systemic vasculitis. Logistic analysis showed that splenomegaly (OR =2.13, 95%CI=1.11-3.42), leukopenia (OR=3.57, 95%CI=2.30~4.86), anaemia (OR=0.85, 95%CI=1.03~2.76), thrombocytopenia (OR=2.98, 95%CI=1.17-4.30) and hypertriglyceridemia (OR=1.66, 95%CI=1.02~2.74) were associated with development of MAS in AOSD. Conclusion The development of MAS in AOSD patient is frequent and hemophagocytic histological evidence could be found in severe cases. When splenomegaly and hypocytomsis present in AOSD patients, bone marrow examination should be done and the level of triglyceride and fibrinogen and activity of NK cells should be measured for early diagnosis.

Objective To explore the efficacy of tumor necrosis factor inhibitor in hip joint lesion of ankylosing spondylids (AS). Methods Eight-six patients with hip joint lesion of ankylosing spondylitis were Enrolled in this study. The treatment protocol was: ①Etanercept 25 mg was suncutaneously injected twice a week in the first two months and once a week in the following two months. Then it was injected once every oth-er two weeks in the last two months of the study period.②Methotrexate 15 mg was administered orally or in-travenously once a week.③NSAIDs and prednisone were stopped when symptoms sunsides. Results Twenty-eight cases (33%) stopped NSAIDs because of the disappearance of symptoms in 2 weeks after starting of the study. Forty-three (50%) stopped NSAIDs with in 8 weeks and 36 cases (42%) in them stopped NSAIDs and prednisone. During the 9th and 16th week, etanercept was used once a week and 49 cases (60%) stopped NSAIDs and prednisone. During the 17th and 24th week, etanercept was used once every two weeks, and 38 cases (44%) stopped NSAIDs and prednisone and their disease was stable. Hip Functional Scores of patients were elevated significantly at 2, 4 and 6 months after the treatment (p<0.05) BASDAI and BASFI decreased, and the difference was significant when compared to those before the treatment (P<0.05). For the 19 cases with hip joint synovitis and hydrarthrosis in MRI image but without obvious change in pelvic plain films, syn-ovitis of 11 cases disappeared and 4 cases improved significantly. In 84 hip joints with grade Ⅱ or Ⅲ changes, 13 joints improved for one grade, 16 joints had improvement but less than one grade, and 49 joints had no radiological changes. Conclusion Etanercept, when combined with methotrexate, is effective in treat-ing hip joint lesion of ankylosing spondylitis. The dosage of etanercept can be tapered after the disease is un-der control.

OBJECTIVETo study the change rule of the hemodynamics of expanded skins and research the transplant time of random-pattern flaps that are made of the expanded skin.
METHODS72 ears of 64 rabbits were used as a subject of experiment. Four items of the contrasted skin (n = 8) and expanded skin (n = 8 x 8), Which include the microvessel diameter, the microvessel density, the blood velocity and the blood volume, were observed and measured by the microcirculatory imaging computer analysis system, the enzyme histochemical dyeing and the more functions colored pathological imaging computer analysis system. The length -width proportion and the largest area of the flaps that had made of the expansive skin and survived were measured.
RESULTS(1) The four items of expanded skin, that the microvessel diameter, the microvessel density, the blood velocity and the blood volume are 13.43 +/- 0.98 micrometer, 0.0472 +/- 0.0022, 1012.70 +/- 65.51 micrometer/s, 14.71 +/- 0.74 micrometer(3)/s respectively, are much bigger or quicker than those of contrasted skin [(7.22 +/- 0.71) micrometer, 0.0108 +/- 0.0002, (327.01 +/- 65.51) micrometer/s, (1.46 +/- 0.41) micrometer(3)/s] and there is the significant difference between both (6.49 < t < 49.49, P < 0.01). (2) The blood velocity increases in the expanding phases and always keeps on higher level. The other items all change periodically. Span of the period is four weeks. The microvessel diameter and the blood volume have a peak value at third weekend of every period and in the later period enhance more on the basis of the former period. The microvessel density changes in definite range in every period. (3) The surviving area of the random skin flaps is the largest which were made of the expanded skin in third weekend of every period, it changes more than those of other weekends in same period and later period is superior to the former period. There is a significant difference compared with contrasted random skin flaps (q = 3.7215, P < 0.05; q = 5.5026, P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONThe hemodynamics of the expanded skin changes periodically in expansive course. The time of peak value of the blood volume is the best opportunity that random-pattern skin flaps are made of the expanded skin in every period.

BACKGROUND:The morphological and mechanical transfers of unstable intertrochanteric fractures were complicated, so it is difficult to analyze the biomechanical characteristicsof the common experimental methods in a comprehensive way. Moreover, the high cost, long cycle and poor repeatability of common tests limit its application in biomechanics. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the biomechanical characteristics of unstable intertrochanteric fracture in different fixation ways by three-dimensional finite element analysis. METHODS:Intertrochanteric fracture locking dynamic hip fixation model (C1), Gamma nail fixation model (C2) and proximal femoral anatomical locking plate model (C3) were established. The distal end of the femur was fixed, and subjected to the hip reaction force of 2800 N and abduction muscle strength of 1 200 N. Three-dimensional finite element analysis was used to analyze the stress distribution, stress concentration and maximum displacement of unstable intertrochanteric fracture in three different fixation ways. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Stress: the anterolateral stress and anteromedial stress of C3 were the maximum. Posterolateral stress and posteromedial stress ofC3 were the minimum. There were significant differences among the three groups (alP< 0.05). (2) Stress of fracture space: significant differences in anterolateral stress, anteromedial stress, posterolateral stress and posteromedial stress were determined in C1, C2 and C3 (P< 0.05). Anterolateral stress of C3 was significantly less than anterolateral stresses of C1 and C2 (P< 0.05). Anteromedial stress of C3 was significantly less than that of C1 and C2 (P< 0.05). Posterolateral stress of C1 was significantly larger than that of C2 and C3 (P<0.05). Posteromedial stress of C1 was significantly larger than that of C2 (P< 0.05). Posteromedial stress of C3 was significantly less than that of C1 and C2 (P< 0.05). (3) Significant differences in bone stress around the screw top were detected among the three groups (P< 0.05). Bone stress around the screw top of C3 was significantly larger than that of C1 and C2 (P< 0.05). (4) Thus, locking dynamic hip screw, Gamma nail and proximal femoral anatomical locking plate have their advantages and disadvantages for treatment of unstable intertrochanteric fracture of the femur. The appropriate internal fixation device should be selected according to the need.

Objective To investigate the effect of bone cement distribution near fracture line after percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) on patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF). Methods One hundred and twenty OVCF patients who had underwent PVP from September 2015 to August 2017 were selected. The range of fracture line was determined by magnetic resonance lipid suppressor sequence imaging before operation, and the three-dimensional modeling was carried out by computer aided design software. Three dimensional imaging of CT bone cement was performed after PVP. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to the bone cement distribution near fracture line. The bone cement distribution near fracture line area was not good in 52 cases (group A), and the bone cement distribution near fracture line was good in 68 cases (group B). The pain visual analogue score (VAS) and the Oswestry dysfunction index (ODI) were measured before operation, second day after operation and 3 months after operation. Results All the patients completed the operation successfully, and the postoperative pain was significantly relieved. In group A, there were 3 cases of with postoperative bone cement leakage, and 4 cases in group B. There were no obvious clinical symptoms, no serious complications such as nerve injury and infection. There was no significant difference in the amount of bone cement between group A and group B: (4.08 ± 0.74) ml vs. (4.03 ± 1.03) ml, P>0.05. There were no significant differences in VAS and ODI before operation between 2 groups (P>0.05). The VAS and ODI second day and 3 months after operation were significantly lower than those before operation in 2 groups, VAS: (4.54 ± 0.81) and (1.46 ± 0.51) scores vs. (7.38 ± 0.94) scores, (2.68 ± 0.88) and (1.18 ± 0.58) scores vs. (7.21 ± 1.12) scores; ODI: (70.23 ± 2.70) and (19.42 ± 2.21) scores vs. (90.46 ± 1.79) scores, (48.85 ± 2.23) and (18.85 ± 1.84) scores vs. (90.50 ± 2.02) scores, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). The VAS and ODI second day after operation in group B were significantly lower than those in group A, and there were statistical differences (P<0.01). There were no significant differences in VAS and ODI 3 months after operation between 2 groups (P>0.05). Conclusions PVP can obviously relieve the pain of OVCF patients. The bone cement is well distributed near the fracture line, and the early effect is obvious.

Objective:To analyze the fail mode of neoadjuvant therapy combined with surgery for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) after long-term follow-up.Methods:Clinical data of consecutive 238 patients with locally advanced resectable ESCC who underwent neoadjuvant therapy combined with surgery in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from September 2012 to October 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The failure mode in the whole cohort was analyzed after long-term follow-up. The overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS) rates were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method. Survival differences were determined by log-rank test.Results:The pathological complete response (pCR) rate was 42.0% in 238 patients. After a median follow-up of 46.1 months, tumor progression occurred in 96 patients (40.3%), including 25 patients (10.5%) with local recurrence, 61 patients (25.6%) with distant metastases, and 10 patients (4.2%) with simultaneous local recurrence and distant metastases. The median OS and DFS were 64.7 months and 49.9 months. And the 3-, 5-, and 7-year OS and DFS rates were 70.0%, 52.8%, 36.4% and 63.5%, 42.5%, and 30.0%, respectively. The 3-, 5-, and 7-year locoregional recurrence-free survival rates and distant metastasis-free survival rates were 86.0%, 71.4%, 61.2% and 70.6%, 55.9%, 43.0%. Compared with non-pCR patients, the overall progression rate and distant metastasis rate of pCR patients were lower (26.0% vs. 50.7%, 16.0% vs. 32.6%, both P<0.05). And the 3-, 5-, and 7-year OS (83.0% vs. 60.2%, 69.7% vs. 41.7%, 50.4% vs. 27.7%, all P<0.001) and DFS rates (80.4% vs. 51.4%, 63.9% vs. 31.2%, 45.9% vs. 20.3%, all P<0.001) were significantly better in pCR patients. Conclusions:Distant metastasis is the main failure mode of patients with locally advanced ESCC after neoadjuvant therapy. Patients with postoperative pCR can achieve better long-term survival.
