Objective To explore the application and clinical effect of bipolar hemiarthroplasty with bipolar prosthesis on unstable intertrochanteric fracture in the elderly patients.Methods The study involved 53 patients aged over 75 years with intertrochanteric fracture treated with bipolar hemiarthroplasty in our hospital from April 2003 to January 2010.According to Evans-Jensen classification,there were 24 patients with type Ⅲ fractures,eight with type Ⅳ and 11 with type Ⅴ.Osteoporosis degree was at Singh degree Ⅰ in 13 patients,degreeⅡ in 18,degree Ⅲ in 12 and degree Ⅳ in 10.Most patients underwent operation within three days after injury.Results The operation duration was(75 ±10)min,with intraoperative blood loss of(350 ± 68)ml.Three patients were lost to follow-up after discharge and one patient was died of respiratory failure caused by chronic bronchitis five months after operation.Forty-nine patients were followed up for 12-93 months(mean 38 months),which showed no joint dislocation,or loosening,subsidence or rupture of the prosthesis.According to the Harris score of hip joint,the result at final follow-up was excellent in 29 patients,good in 13 and fair in seven,with excellence rate of 86％.Conclusions Bipolar hemiarthroplasty is an effective treatment for osteoporotic and unstable intertrochanteric fractures in the elderly patients.However,as the complemented therapeutic method of proximal femoral nail antirotation(PFNA),bipolar hemiarthroplasty has severe secondary trauma and its indications must be strictly mastered.

Objective To analyze the clinical effect of anterior cervical decompression with double-way connection intervertebral fusion device (ROI-C) implantation for type Ⅱ or type Ⅱ a Hangman fracture.Methods A retrospective study was made on 14 patients with type Ⅱ or type Ⅱ a Hangman fracture treated with anterior cervical ROI-C implantation between February 2011 and March 2014.The patients (11 males and 3 females) were aged between 22 and 46 years (mean,26.4 years).Nine patients sustained traffic injury,4 fall injury and 1 crash injury.Nine patients were classified as type Ⅱ and 5 type Ⅱ a according to the Levine-Edwards classification.All were completed cervical anteroposterior and lateral X-ray,CT scan,three-dimensional CT reconstruction and MRI examination after adnission.American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) grade E was noted in all before operation.Clinical posttraumatic neck score,visual analogue scale (VAS) as well as angle deformity and displacement of the axis were recorded before operation and at the latest follow-up.Results All patients were operated successfully.Mean operation time was 61 min(range,45-116 min).There were no injuries of superior laryngeal nerve,hypoglossal nerve,throat wall and vessel during operation.Laryngeal edema,dysphagia,paralysis of tongue,hematoma and wound infection were not observed after operation.Mean period of follow-up was 24.2 months (range,4-32 months).All segments and fracture sites showed solid fusion after 3 months.No cages became subsided or displaced,no discs collapsed,and no malunion occurred at the latest follow-up.Data of preoperation and latest follow-up differed significantly with respect to clinical posttraumatic neck score[(53.1 ±7.2) points vs.(91.1 ±5.0)points],VAS[3.38(2.43,4.33)points vs.0.58(0,1.29) points],axis displacement[(4.0 ± 1.5) mm vs.(1.3 ± 1.2) mm],and angle deformityoftheaxis[(9.2±4.7)° vs.(2.1 ±1.9)°] (P＜O.05 or O.01).Conclusion Anterior cervical surgery with ROI-C implantation for type Ⅱ or type Ⅱa Hangman fracture provides good fusion rate and satisfactory clinical effect.

Objective To investigate the preliminary clinical result of thoracolumbar fracture combined with posterior ligamentous complex injuries repaired by posterior transpedicular screw fixation.Methods A retrospective review was performed on 22 patients with thoracolumbar flexion-distraction fracture combined with posterior ligamentous complex injuries treated with transpedicular screw fixation from July 2008 to March 2013.There were 16 males and 6 females with mean age of 39 years (range,23-62 years).After medically stable,posterior pedicle screw fixation was performed under intravenousinhalational anesthesia.According to the degree of fracture displacement and types of ligament injury,posterolateral bone grafting or intervertebral fusion at the level of injury was conducted.Vertebral height restoration,Cobb' s angle and American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) score were reviewed preoperatively,at postoperative 3 days and at the last follow-up.Results All the patients were operated on smoothly.There were no complications during operation.All the patients were followed up for 5-51 months (mean,26.5 months).Fracture reductions were satisfied with the closure of vertebral posterior element.Mean anterior vertebral height and Cobb' s angle improved by 20.6％ and 10.60°respectively after operation (P ＜0.01).Eight patients with neurological dysfunction showed some recovery after operation with the mean sensory score improved by 20.7％ (P ＜ 0.05) and mean motor function score improved by 30.9％ (P ＜ 0.0l).All bone grafts were healed,without pain,loosening or breakage in the fixation system.Conclusions Posterior pedicular screw fixation attains good short-term outcome for thoracolumbar flexion-distraction fracture combined with posterior ligamentous complex injuries.The surgery provides satisfactory reduction and instant spinal three-column stability for the unstable spine fracture.Sufficient bone graft is the guarantee to permanent stability.

Objective To discuss the presentations, pathologic features, diagnosis and treatment of primary synovial sarcoma of the kidney. Methods One case of primary synovial sarcoma of the kidney was reported and the relevant literature was reviewed. A 55-year-old man was admitted with complaint of right abdomen and flank pain for 5 h. Computerized tomography revealed a 12.5 cm × 11.0 cm × 9. 0 cm mass located at the middle and lower pole of the right kidney. The patient was taken radical nephrectomy. Results The diagnosis of primary synovial sarcoma of the kidney in the patient was confirmed by postoperative pathology. Under microscope, tumor was typically mitotically active, monomorphic spindle cells growing in intersecting fascicles or in solid sheets with epithelial differentiation. In some areas a haemangiopericytoma-like pattern was found. Immunohistochemical staining showed that the tumor cells were positive for the markers Vimentin, CD99 and Bcl-2, but CK was negative. The patient died of local recurrence and multi-metastasis at 8 months after surgery. Conclusions Primary synovial sarcoma of the kidney is extremely rare with a high grade of malignancy,and its prognosis is poor. The diagnosis depends on pathological features, Immunohistochemical studies and RT-PCR detection. Radical resection combined with chemicaltherapy is considered to be the most reliable treatment so far.

Objective To discuss the protective effect of creatine phosphate (CP)on isolated rat liver against cold preservation.Methods Isolated perfused rat liver model under simple cold preservation was established.The liver of the control group was perfused with pure University of Wisconsin (UW)solution. With UW solution as the base fluid,the liver of the low-dose group was perfused with 1 g/100 ml CP in UW solution;the liver of the middle-dose group was perfused with 2 g/100 ml CP in UW solution;the liver of the high-dose group was perfused with 3 g/100 ml CP in UW solution.The livers of each group were cold preserved in the corresponding perfusion fluid at 4 ℃.The content of alanine aminotransferase (ALT)and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)in preservation solution in infrahepatic vena cava were determined.The content of malondialdehyde (MDA)and activity of myeloperoxidase (MPO)in liver tissues were detected.The apoptosis index (AI)of liver cells in liver tissues and positive expression rate of NF-κB in liver tissues were observed. Pathologic changes of liver tissues were observed under optical microscope.Results At 12 h after the cold preservation,the content of ALT and LDH in the rat livers of low-,middle-and high-dose groups were lower than those of the control group (all in P <0.05).At 18 h after the cold preservation,the content of MDA and MPO in the liver tissues of low-,middle-and high-dose groups were lower than those of the control group (all in P <0.05).At 12 h and 18 h after the cold preservation,AI and positive expression rate of NF-κB in liver cells in the rat livers of low-,middle-and high-dose groups were lower than those of the control group (all in P<0.05).At 24 h after the cold preservation,the content of ALT and MDA in preservation solution of the high-dose group was obviously higher than that of the control group as well as the low-and middle-dose groups (all in P <0.05).The results of pathological examination indicated that the injuries to the livers of the high-,middle-and low-dose groups were obviously lighter than that of the control group.There was no obvious difference among each dose group.Conclusions CP in UW solution may well protect the isolated rat liver against cold preservation,which is better than pure UW solution.

In recent years,significant progress has been made in the study of endometrial epitheli-al organoids in the field of reproduction.Traditional two-dimensional cell culture models and animal ex-periments fail to accurately replicate the three-di-mensional structure and physiological functions of the endometrium,limiting the in-depth exploration of its normal physiological mechanisms and related disease mechanisms.Emerging organoid technolo-gies have provided new avenues for research.These organoids,formed by self-organization of stem cells or progenitor cells in a three-dimensional culture system,faithfully recapitulate the character-istics of endometrial glands in situ.Not only can these organoid models mimic the changes in the endometrium at different stages of the menstrual cycle,but they can also simulate the interaction be-tween the fertilized embryo and the endometrium.Moreover,organoid systems have become essential tools for fundamental research in the field of repro-duction and for disease research,including studies related to reproductive biology,drug screening and development,disease mechanism exploration,drug action mechanisms,drug combination therapies,and targeted therapies.These studies have provid-ed novel insights and methods for a deeper under-standing of the biological properties of the endome-trium,its disease mechanisms,and the develop-ment of therapeutic strategies for related disorders.

Objective: To compare two Taq-man Real-time PCR methods for detection of hepatitis B virus covalently closed circular DNA (HBV cccDNA) in serum or liver tissue. Methods: Two sets of primers and probes (common Taq-Man probe and MGB Taq-Man probe) were synthesized according to the reference papers, and the sensitivity and specificity of the two methods were compared using prepared plasmid as standard curve, and HBV DNA samples were exlracted from serum and liver tissue samples of hepatitis B patients. The samples were tested with both methods separately before or after the digestion with a Plasmid-Safe ATP-dependent Dnase (PSAD). Results: Both of these two kinds of detection methods had a good linear relationship with the prepared plasmid as standard curve (R² 0.989 or 0.976 respectively, CV were within 4% ), and obtained good specificity when the HBV DNA samples were tested before or after digestion with PSAD. The common Taq-Man probe had lower Ct value than MGB probe when the samples in the same concentration. Conclusions Both methods can be used for HBV cccDNA detection. The common Taq-Man probe has slightly higher sensitivity than MGB probe, while the MGB probe has lower background than the common Taq-Man probe in our test. One can select the appropriate probe according to the need.

Objective By using the computational fluid mechanic(CFD)method the tandem carotid artery stenosis(TCAS)was simulated on the model,and to compare the postoperative hemodynamic changes of different surgical procedures.Methods One patient with tandem stenosis of internal carotid artery(ICA)and common carotid artery(CCA)was selected.CFD technique was used to establish four three-dimensional(3-D)models of the carotid bifurcations,including one model of a real patient and three models of presumptive surgery.The hemodynamic analysis was performed with these models so as to explore the development mechanism of TCAS and to discuss the selection of suitable surgical plan.Results In tandem stenosis,the stenosis was preferentially formed in CCA and subsequently led to ICA stenosis.The local hemodynamic situation in TCAS was more complex and more risky than in single carotid artery stenosis.In tandem stenosis,the treatment of one stenosis site would affect the blood flow at the next stenosis site and cause restenosis or plaque rupture.Conclusion In treating patients with TCAS,CFD simulation examination should be performed when the surgical plan is formulated,which can help clinicians to predict the postoperative changes in blood flow and to choose the appropriate surgical plan.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and risk factors of abnormal urinary albumin/creatinine ratio(UACR) in obese population.Methods:Baseline data from 2011 to 2012 in Henan Sub-center of"Risk Evaluation of cAncers in Chinese diabeTic Individuals: A lONgitudinal(REACTION) study"were utilized and those of body mass index≥28 kg/m 2 were screened. The patients were divided into UACR normal group and UACR abnormal group(101 pairs) upon being matched on a 1∶1 basis by age and gender. Multivariate logistic regression analysis, receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve, and restricted cubic spline(RCS)analysis were performed to explore the risk factors for abnormal UACR. Results:Compared with the normal UACR group, the UACR abnormal group had a higher number of alcohol consumers, a higher prevalence of hypertension, elevated systolic blood pressure, and triglyceride(all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that alcohol consumption( P=0.008), systolic blood pressure( P<0.001), triglyceride( P=0.049), and homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance(HOMA-IR, P=0.033) were independent risk factors for abnormal UACR in obese people. The ROC curve analysis indicated that systolic blood pressure had the strongest diagnostic performance as a single factor(ROC curve area=0.801), and there was no significant difference in diagnostic performance compared to multiple factors combination. RCS analysis results showed that the probability of abnormal UACR increased monotonically with the increase of systolic blood pressure when the systolic blood pressure was between 130 and 158 mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa). When systolic blood pressure was not in the interval, the probability of abnormal UACR did not change significantly. The results of regression analysis of triglyceride subgroup showed that when triglyceride level was greater than or equal to 5.6 mmol/L, the risk of abnormal UACR level was significantly increased( P=0.029). Conclusion:Systolic blood pressure, triglyceride, HOMA-IR, and alcohol drinking history are independent risk factors for abnormal UACR in obese people. When systolic blood pressure is≥130 mmHg or triglyceride is≥5.6 mmol/L, the risk of abnormal UACR is significantly increased.

【Objective】 To investigate the unqualified rate of anti-HIV detection of blood screening laboratories in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, and explore the differences in anti-HIV detection ability and influencing factors in each laboratory. 【Methods】 Through filling questionnaires via e-mail, the anti-HIV ELISA unqualified rate and confirmed (WB) positive results (data) from January to December 2018 from 15 blood screening laboratories in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region were collected. Our laboratory was responsible for data collection and confirmation, and statistics software SPSS22.0 was used for analysis. 【Results】 1) There was a statistically significant difference among the unqualified rate of anti-HIV ELISA(6.77‱~35.71‱) and confirmed positive rate(0.60‱~3.56‱) in 15 blood screening laboratories in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region (P<0.05); 2) There were significant differencse among the ELISA unqualified rate and the confirmed positive rate of 8 reagents for anti-HIV detection(P<0.01), and the sensitivity of the 4th generation detection reagent and the imported reagent was higher than that of the 3rd generation reagent and the domestic reagent. The anti-HIV ELISA unqualified rate of R5 was the highest (19.08‱). 3)There were significant differences in the anti-HIV ELISA unqualified rate of R1, R2, R3, R5 and R7 reagents among different blood station laboratories(P<0.05), and there were no significant differences in the anti-HIV ELISA unqualified rate of R4, R6 and R8 reagents among different blood station laboratories(P>0.05). 4)The unqualified rate of anti-HIV ELISA of laboratories using different regents showed significant differences(P<0.05), except H, J, M. The unqualified rate of imported reagent was significantly higher than that of domestic reagents of laboratories using imported and domestic reagents combinations(P<0.05), except O. 62.5% (5/8) laboratories using domestic 3^rd and 4^th generation reagent combination showed significant differences in the unqualified rates among different reagents(P<0.05); 5) The positive rate of single-reagent(62.02%~95.45%)in 15 blood screening laboratories showed significant difference(P<0.001), and A was the lowest (62.02%). 【Conclusion】 The anti-HIV detection ability among 15 blood screening laboratories in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region is quite different. The application of different reagents is the main factor for the difference, and other factors such as personnel, instruments and test strategies also has a great impact on the detection of anti-HIV. It is still necessary to promote the process of homogenization of blood testing quality among blood screening laboratories in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region.
