Recently,wide application of MRI in clinic accelerates researches into the etiology,diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of bone bruises.MRI manifestations of bone bruises include trabecular microfracture associated with hemorrhage,oedema of subchondral bone because of direct or indirect traumatic force and focal abnormalities in subchondral bone of the knee.This condition is also known as occult injury of the knee,because it is likely to be overlooked or misdiagnosed in hospital due to its diagnostic difficulty by plain radiographs and CT.If timely intervention is not given,it will be accompanied by chronic pain which seriously affects the daily life of the patients,even resulting in early degeneration.This article discusses the current research on bone bruises of the knee.

Objective To investigate the changing characteristics of the fractional anisotropy (FA) in cerebral peduncles and its relation with motor evoked potential (MEP) after acute cerebral infarction and to clear the clinical sigiificance of the low limit value of the FA in cerebral peduncles. Methods The low limit value of the FA in normal cerebral peduncles was determined based on mean - 1. 64 standard deviation. The patients with acute cerebral infarction (n = 58) were divided into MEP positive group and MEP negative group according to the absence and presence of MEP, in which the patients in the MEP positive group were redivided into the FA in cerebral peduncles ＜ the low limit value and≥ the low limit value groups according to the FA in cerebral peduncles on the affected sides. Results The low limit value of the FA in normal cerebral peduncles was 0. 36. There was significant difference in the FA in cerebral peduncles on the affected sides between the MEP negtive and MEP positive groups. The MEP negative group was the lowest (P=0. 000). The FA in cerebral peduncles on the affected sides in the positive group was significantly lower than that on the unaffected sides (P=0. 000), and the latency on the affected sides was longer than that on the normal sides (P=0. 000). The FA in cerebral peduncles on the affected sides was negatively correlated with the MEP latency (r=-0.332,P=0. 042). The MEP latency in the FA＜the low limit value group was significantly longer than that in the FA ≥ low limit value group (P=0. 002). There were no significant differences in the FA in cerebral peduncles on the normal sides and the MEP latency among an groups. The detection rate of the FA in cerebral peduncle＜0. 36 on the affected sides was the highest (50%). Conclusions In the evaluation of the prognosis of the patients, the changes of the FA in cerebral peduncles on the affected sides in patients with acute cerebral infarction had correlation,consistency, and complementarity with MEP.The detection rate of the low limit value of the FA in normal cerebral peduncles was the highest in the MEP negative patients. When the FA in cerebral peduncles was＜0.36 on the affected sides, particularly when MET was negative, it might predict that the prognosis was poor.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of multi-functional fire needling plus auricular plaster therapy for moderate to severe acne vulgaris.Methods One hundred and fifty patients with moderate to severe acne vulgaris were randomly allocated to treatment and control groups, 75 cases each. Both groups were first given bloodletting at Ear apex and Helix 4. Then the treatment group received multi-functional fire needling plus auricular plaster therapy and the control group, auricular plaster therapy alone. The symptom and sign score was recorded in the two groups before and after treatment. The clinical therapeutic effects were compared between the two groups.Results There was a statistically significant pre-/post-treatment difference in the symptom and sign score in the two groups (P<0.01). There was a statistically significant post-treatment difference in the symptom and sign score between the two groups (P<0.05). The total efficacy rate and the cure and marked efficacy rate were 98.6% and 88.7%, respectively, in the treatment group and 93.2% and 60.8%, respectively, in the control group. There was a statistically significant difference in the cure and marked efficacy rate between the two groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Multi-functional fire needling plus auricular plaster therapy is an effective way to treat moderate to severe acne vulgaris.

Genetic risk score (GRS) is used for evaluating the effects of genetic susceptible factors in risk prediction models.Five methods are commonly used for GRS:i.e.simple count genetic risk score (SC-GRS),odds ratio weighted genetic risk score (OR-GRS),direct logistic regression genetic risk score (DL-GRS),polygenic genetic risk score (PG-GRS) and explained variance weighted genetic risk score (EV-GRS).This paper summarizes the models,application conditions,advantages and limitations of the five methods.The complexity of prediction models increased along with the inclusion of more susceptible SNPs,some method have been developed to solve the problems,but the effects of new methods needs further evaluation.

Objective: To analyze the status of parents sharing meal expenses in the national pilot areas of the Nutrition Improvement Program for Rural Compulsory Education Students (NIPRCES) and its influencing factors, so as to provide scientific data for promoting the proper implementation of the NIPRCES and the healthy development of students. Methods: In the 726 national pilot counties in 22 provinces where the NIPRCES was implemented, 8 109 primary and junior high schools were selected as the survey objects and included in the analysis according to the three feeding methods of canteen feeding, enterprise feeding and mixed feeding. Data such as the basic information of the schools and counties, and the status of parents sharing meal expenses were collected through questionnaires. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of parents sharing meal expenses. Results: In the national pilot areas of the NIPRCES, schools where parents shared meal costs accounted for 30.2% of all monitored schools in 2019. In central and western areas, the proportion of schools where parents shared meal costs were 51.5% and 20.3%, respectively. In schools where parents shared meal costs, no matter in primary school or junior high school, the difference in the amount of meal expenses shared by parents of students in middle and western schools was statistically significant ( χ 2= 181.78 , 89.54, P <0.01). Among 38.7% of the parents of primary school students in the central region shared meal expenses of ≥2 yuan, and 47.5% of the parents of primary school students in the western region. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the parents of schools in the central region, junior high schools or nine year system schools, canteen feeding or other feeding, large school size, the nutritious meal subsidy used for lunch, middle and high family income level, medium and low input level of the monitoring counties, monitoring counties with other nutrition public welfare projects and insufficient working funds share a higher proportion of meal expenses ( OR=3.22, 1.51, 1.36, 1.74, 3.74, 1.38, 11.58, 2.40, 3.15, 1.50, 2.12, 3.36, 1.34, P < 0.05). Conclusion The proportion of meals shared by parents of school students in the NIPRCES implementation area was relatively low, which may be affected by factors such as economic level, feeding mode, school scale, etc.

Objective: To analyze the usage and influencing factors of quantified recipes in schools in the pilot areas of the Nutrition Improvement Program for Rural Compulsory Education Students (NIPRCES), and to provide references for student meal quality improvement. Methods: In 726 national pilot counties in 22 provinces where the NIPRCES was implemented, a total of 7 808 schools were included in the analysis as the survey objects in 2019. Data, including the usage of quantified recipes in schools and related factors, were collected through questionnaires. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of the schools use of quantified recipes. Results: Among the national pilot counties where the NIPRCES was implemented, 66.6 % of the monitored schools used quantified recipes, of which 69.7% of schools in the central region used quantified recipes, it was higher than that in the west region(65.2%) ( χ 2=15.13, P <0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that factors such as the schools in the central region, county based schools, the training frequency of canteen with 1-2 times per semester or once or more per month, regular training of nutrition knowledge, recipes provided by other departments, consideration of nutrition matching when formulating recipes, using catering software, providing local dietary allowances were positively correlated with the use of quantified recipes in schools( OR=1.31,0.72,1.44,1.73,1.75,3.20,2.15,2.72,1.17,P <0.05). Conclusion The proportion of using quantified recipes of schools in the NIPRCES area was relatively low, which might be affected by factors including the regional economic level, canteen training, and recipes sources. It is recommended to strengthen the construction of professional teams and canteen training. Schools need to be encouraged to use quantified recipes and promote school catering scientifically to improve healthy growth of students.

Objective To investigate the differences in blood pressure phenotypes,renal pathological changes,and related pathogenic pathways in genetically diverse hypertensive mice obtained from 13 strains.Methods The genotypes of Cckbr+/+,Cckbr+/-and Cckbr-/-were obtained by hybridization of 13 strains of genetically diverse mice with Cckbr-/-mice.Blood pressure was measured with a noninvasive blood pressure analysis system(BP-2000).The expression of CCKBR protein in mouse kidney tissue was detected by Western Blot,and the pathological changes in mouse kidney tissue were detected by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining and immunohistochemistry(IHC).The pathogenic pathways related to essential hypertension were screened by RNA sequencing.Results In three specific mouse strains(A/J,LOT,and FIM),the systolic blood pressure(SBP)was significantly different between the Cckbr-/-and Cckbr+/+groups.HE staining and IHC showed that hypertension caused a certain degree of renal injury in the mice.Gene Ontology(GO)and pathway enrichment analysis showed that differentially expressed genes were enriched in metabolic processes and circadian rhythm regulation.Conclusions Genetically diverse mice can effectively simulate the genetic background of the population and provide a new resource for studying the pathogenic genes related to essential hypertension.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors for ankle varus deformity after McFarland fracture surgery in children.Methods:A total of 48 children with McFarland fracture who underwent surgical treatment in the Second General Hospital of Fuzhou from January 2015 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 24 males and 24 females, aged 11.2±3.2 years (range, 2-14 years), 19 cases on the left side and 29 cases on the right side. Salter-Harris classification: 34 cases of type III and 14 cases of type IV. Causes of injuries: 28 cases of sports injuries, 15 cases of fall injuries, and 5 cases of car accident injuries. The time from injury to operation was 2.6±1.7 d (range, 1-7 d). The reduction methods included closed reduction in 38 cases and open reduction in 10 cases. Tibial internal fixation: 42 cases of hollow screws, 6 cases of Kirschner pins. There were 30 cases of combined fibula fracture, 20 cases were fixed with plate, 8 cases were fixed with Kirschner's pin, and 2 cases were not treated with internal fixation. The internal fixation survival time was 6.4±2.8 months (range, 1-12 months). The lateral distal tibial angle (LDTA) was used to determine whether the child had ankle varus deformity. The general data and perioperative indicators of the two groups were compared, and the indicators with statistically significant differences were included in binary logistic regression analysis to determine the independent risk factors for ankle varus deformity after McFarland fracture surgery in children. The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn and the area under the curve of each independent risk factor was calculated.Results:All patients successfully completed the operation and were followed up for 39.2±21.8 months (range, 15-98 months). At the last follow-up, all the 48 children with McFarland fracture had bone union and the internal fixation was successfully removed, and 5 of them had ankle varus deformity. The LDTA of the affected side was 98.6°±4.8° (range, 94°-106°) in the ankle varus deformity group and 89.0°±0.8° (range, 87°-91°) in the non-ankle varus deformity group. The age of children in the ankle varus deformity group was 6.6±5.1 years, which was younger than that in the non-ankle varus deformity group (11.7±2.5 years), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.772, P<0.001). The survival time of internal fixation in the ankle varus deformity group was 4.4±2.2 months, which was shorter than that in the non-ankle varus deformity group (6.6±2.8 months), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=1.750, P=0.087). There was no significant difference in gender, side, cause of injury, fracture type, initial displacement distance, fibular fracture, time from injury to operation, reduction method, or fixation method between the two groups ( P>0.05). Age and duration of internal fixation were included in binary logistic regression analysis. The results showed that age ( OR=0.717, 95% CI: 0.543, 0.945, P=0.018) was an independent risk factor for postoperative ankle varus deformity in children with McFarland fracture. The receiver operating characteristic curve of independent risk factors predicting postoperative ankle varus deformity in children with McFarland fracture was drawn and the area under the curve was calculated. The results showed that the best cut-off value of age was 5.5 years, and the area under the curve was 0.807, and the prediction efficiency of the prediction model was good. Conclusion:Age<5.5 years is an independent risk factor for postoperative varus ankle deformity in children with McFarland fracture.

Objective:To explore the clinical features and surgical outcomes of greater trochanteric fractures of the femoral neck in children.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the 5 children with greater trochanteric fracture of the femoral neck who had been treated at Department of Pediatric Orthopaedics, Fuzhou Second General Hospital from January 2011 to December 2020. There were 1 boy and 4 girls, with an age of (11.0±1.9) years. By the Delbet classification, all were type Ⅲ fractures. The time from injury to operation was (4.4±2.1) days. The children were treated with cannulated screws (1 case) or fixation with a pediatric hip plate (4 cases). The clinical features of such fractures were analyzed; the fracture union time and hip function and complications at the last follow-up were recorded.Results:The clinical features of greater trochanteric fractures of the femoral neck in children were: (1) involvement of 2 anatomic sites in a narrow region, (2) comminuted fractures, and (3) all Delbet type Ⅲ fractures. The follow-up time was (22.8±6.0) months. All the 5 children obtained bony union. The union time was (5.2±1.8) weeks for greater trochanteric fractures, and 8.0 (8.0,10.0) weeks for femoral neck fractures. Follow-up observed no necrosis of the femoral head, premature closure of the femoral head epiphysis, hip varus deformity, or length disparity between the lower limbs. Premature closure of the greater trochanteric epiphysis occurred in 2 children after surgery. According to the Ratliff scoring, the hip function was excellent in 3 cases and good in 2.Conclusions:Greater trochanteric fractures of the femoral neck in children are a special kind of proximal femoral comminuted fractures that affect 2 anatomic sites in a narrow region and belong all to Delbet type Ⅲ fractures. Open reduction and internal fixation with cannulated screws or a pediatric hip plate is a safe and effective treatment for such fractures.

Objective: To analyze the consumption frequency of major foods among Chinese children aged 6-17 years old, and to provide a basis for optimizing the dietary structure of children in China. Methods: Using data from the China Nutrition and Health System Survey and Application Program for Children 0-18 years old, 56 734 children aged 6-17 years old from North, Norththeast East, Central, South, Southwest and Northwest seven regions in China were selected for the study using stratified cluster random sampling from 2019 to 2021. A food frequency questionnaire was used to investigate the intake frequency of eight food groups in a month, including fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, livestock and poultry meats, aquatic products, eggs, dairy products, legumes, and cereals and potatoes. The foods were grouped according to whether they met the recommended intake criteria outlined in the Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents 2022. The〖KG*2〗χ2 test was used to compare the differences in the proportion of childrens intake frequency of each food group meeting the standard in different regions and age groups. Results: The proportions of Chinese children aged 6-17 years who consumed fresh vegetables and cereals and potatoes ≥3 times/d were 12.1% and 67.2%, respectively. The proportions of children who consumed fresh fruits, livestock and poultry meats, eggs and dairy products ≥1 time/d were 50.8%, 58.8%, 36.0% and 54.3%, respectively. The proportion of legumes consumed ≥4 times/week was 37.4%, and the proportion of aquatic products consumed ≥2 times/week was 39.7%. Fresh vegetables (5.5%), fresh fruits (33.1%), and dairy products (36.4%) had the lowest frequency of meeting the recommended standards in South China, and aquatic products (27.4%) and eggs (21.1%) had the lowest frequency of meeting the recommended standards in Northwest (P<0.008 3). Conclusion The overall intake frequency of fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, legumes, and dairy products are insufficient among Chinese children, with significant regional variations.
