Abstract?AlM:To evaluate the accuracy and practicability of three - dimensionally preformed Arbeitsgemeinschaft Osteosynthese AO titanium mesh plates for orbital fractures.?METHODS:Forty-seven patients with isolated blow-out orbital fractures were included in this study. Fracture locations were as follows: floor/medial wall ( n = 26, 55%), medial wall ( n = 12, 26%), and floor ( n = 9, 19%) . The floor fractures were exposed by a standard transconjunctival approach, whereas a combined transcaruncular transconjunctival approach was used in patients with medial wall fractures with temporary dissection of inferior oblique muscle. A three -dimensionally preformed AO titanium mesh plate was selected according to the size of the defect previously measured on the preoperative computed tomographic scan examination and fixed at the inferior orbital rim with 2 screws. The accuracy of plate positioning of the reconstructed orbit was assessed on the postoperative computed tomography ( CT) scan. The practicability of clinical use of AO three - dimensionally preformed titanium mesh plates was assessed on the preoperative and postoperative clinical data.?RESULTS: Postoperative orbital CT scan showed an anatomic three- dimensional placement of the orbital mesh plates in all of the patients. All patients had a successful treatment outcome without clinical complications. 40 patients ( 87%) had a successful enophthalmos correction. 25 patients ( 86%) had a successful recovery from diplopia.?CONCLUSlON: Three- dimensionally preformed AO titanium mesh plates for orbital fracture reconstruction results in an accurate anatomic restoration of the bony orbital contour with a high rate of success to correctenophthalmos and diplopia.

As one of the common type of ocular injuries,orbital fracture can result in enophthalmos,diplopia and infraorbital nerve injury,which affects the physiological function of eyeball.Repairing surgery for orbital fracture should be treated for reconstructing the orbital anatomical structure in case of severe enophthalmos and diplopia,or infraorbital nerve injury.Meanwhile,it's crucial to identify the suitable surgery approach and implants because of the specificity and complexity of the orbit.What a clinician expected most is the ideal prognosis obtained easily with minimal operation complication.Transconjunctival approach should be applied as one of the standard approaches for repairing surgery of orbital fracture,offering good operative field with less complications.Titanium mesh and resorbable materials are the ideal implants at present,for their high level of stable quality and plasticity.More and more applications of 3D-printed rapid prototyping technique can guide the new directions of individualization and precision of repairing surgery for orbital fracture.

OBJECTIVETo study the promotion effect of stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1) on the migration of epidermal stem cells (ESC) in the healing process of frostbite-wound model ex vivo.

METHODSA three-dimensional model of full-thickness frostbite of skin was constructed (with slot-like wound) out of skin equivalent. The expression of SDF-1 in wound stroma was observed with immunohistochemistry staining on post injury days (PID) 3 and 7. The model frostbite wounds were divided into control group (treated with PBS 50 microL per wound), SDF-1 group (treated with 100 ng/mL SDF-1, 50 microL per wound), and AMD3100 group [treated with 100 ng/mL AMD3100 (50 microL per wound) for 30 minutes, and then SDF-1 50 microL was added per wound]. The redistribution of ESC around wound was observed.

RESULTSThe expression of SDF-1 in wound stroma increased gradually on PID 3 and 7. Compared with those in control and AMD3100 groups, there were more ESC and epithelial cell layers, and more integrin beta(1)-positive cells appeared at the basal layer of wound in SDF-1 group, and some of the positive cells migrated upward to epidermis.

CONCLUSIONSSDF-1 contributes to wound repair through promoting ESC to migrate toward and gather around wound edge. This may be one of the mechanisms of ESC participating in wound repair.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of intensity-modulated radiation therapy combined with camrelizumab in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods A total of 84 patients with advanced HCC admitted to our hospital from January to December 2020 were selected as the study objects,and were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group,with 42 cases in each group.Patients in the observation group received intensity-modulated radiation therapy combined with carrelli-zumab,and patients in the control group received intensity-modulated radiation therapy.The short-term efficacy,immune function and long-term survival rate of patietns in the two groups were compared,and the incidence of adverse reactions was recorded.Results The total effec-tive rates of the observation group 1 month and 3 months after treatment were significantly higher than those of the control group(P<0.05).The levels of CD3+,CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ 1 month and 3 months after treatment were all increased in the two groups,while the levels of CD8+ in both two groups were decreased(P<0.05),and the levels of CD3+,CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05),and the levels of CD8+ in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The median survival time of patients in the observation group was significantly longer than that of patients in the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of cutaneous capillary hyperplasia in the observation group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.001),and there was no significant difference in the incidence of other adverse reactions between the two groups(P>0.05),and all of adverse reactions were grades 1 to 2.Conclusion Intensity-modulated radiation therapy combined with camrelizumab has a good effect on HCC,it can improve the immune function of the body,and control the development of the disease,with good safety.

OBJECTIVES: To study the genetic polymorphism and population genetic parameters of 16 X-STR loci in Xinjiang Uygur population. METHODS: The Goldeneye^® DNA identification system 17X was used to amplify 16 X-STR loci in 502 unrelated individuals (251 females and 251 males). The amplified products were detected by 3130xl genetic analyzer. Allele frequencies and population genetic parameters were analyzed statistically. The genetic distances between Uygur and other 8 populations were calculated. Multidimensional scaling and phylogenetic tree were constructed based on genetic distance. RESULTS: In the 16 X-STR loci, a total of 67 alleles were detected in 502 Xinjiang Uygur unrelated individuals. The allele frequencies ranged from 0.001 3 to 0.572 4. PIC ranged from 0.568 8 to 0.855 3. The cumulative discrimination power in females and males were 0.999 999 999 999 999 and 0.999 999 999 743 071, respectively. The cumulative mean paternity exclusion chance in trios and in duos were 0.999 999 997 791 859 and 0.999 998 989 000 730, respectively. The genetic distance between Uygur population and Kazakh population was closer, and the genetic distance between Uygur and Han population was farther. CONCLUSIONS The 16 X-STR loci are highly polymorphic and suitable for identification in Uygur population, which can provide a powerful supplement for the study of individual identification, paternity identification and population genetics.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the genetic polymorphism of InDel loci in SifalnDel 45plex system in the Han population in Jiangsu Province and the Mongolian population in Inner Mongolia, and to evaluate the effectiveness of the system in forensic medicine. METHODS: SifaInDel 45plex system was used for genotyping in blood samples of 398 unrelated individuals from the above two populations, and allele frequencies and population genetic parameters of the two populations were calculated respectively. Eight intercontinental populations in the gnomAD database were used as reference populations. The genetic distances between the two studied populations and eight reference populations were calculated based on the allele frequencies of 27 autosomal-InDels (A-InDels). The phylogenetic trees and multidimensional scaling (MDS) analysis diagrams were constructed accordingly. RESULTS: Among two studied populations, the 27 A-InDels and 16 X-InDels showed no linkage disequilibrium between each other and the allele frequency distributions were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The CDP of the 27 A-InDels in two studied populations were all higher than 0.999 999 999 9, and the CPE_trio were all less than 0.999 9. The CDP of the 16 X-InDels in Han in Jiangsu and Mongolian in Inner Mongolia female and male samples were 0.999 997 962, 0.999 998 389, and 0.999 818 940, 0.999 856 063, respectively. The CMEC_trio were all less than 0.999 9. The results of population genetics showed that the Jiangsu Han nationality, Inner Mongolia Mongolian nationality and East Asian population clustered into one branch, showing closer genetic relationship. The other 7 intercontinental populations clustered into another group. And the above 3 populations displayed distant genetic relationships with the other 7 intercontinental populations. CONCLUSIONS The InDels in the SifaInDel 45plex system have good genetic polymorphism in the two studied populations, which can be used for forensic individual identification or as an effective complement for paternity identification, and to distinguish different intercontinental populations.
