Radiotherapy is the main treatment method of early lung cancer not undergoing surgery for medical reasons and advanced non-resectable lung cancer. The local regional control of lung cancer requires high-dose irradiation, but this treatment is restricted by normal tissue tolerance. The measurement and control of errors are crucial for safe implementation of lung cancer precision radiotherapy. Lung tumor radiotherapy error sources, the methods to control these errors, and the error development trend are discussed in this review.

OBJECTIVETo study the biocompatibility of porous calcium phosphate ceramics nanocomposite.

METHODSThe biocompatibility was evaluated via experiments including the hemolysis test, hemopexis test, acute systemic toxicity test, pyrogen test, and intramuscular implant test, in which biphasic calcium phosphate nanocomposite (NanoBCP) presented as leaching solution, suspension or blocks of 5 mmx5 mmxl mm. Animals including New Zealand Rabbits, Kunming mice, SD rats were selected as the host.

RESULTSThe hemolysis of NanoBCP was 1.1% (<5%). Four coagulation index levels were within the normal range. In pyrogen test, the temperature of each experimental rat increased by 0.35, 0.40, 0.28 degrees C (<0.60 degrees C, in accordance with the pyrogen-free criterion for biomedical materials). No consequent death, dyspnoea, organ dysfunction, severe peritoneal irritation or ptosis was observed in acute systemic toxic test. Newly-formed fibrous tissue could be found after the implantation.

CONCLUSIONThe material possesses outstanding biocompatibility and degradability with no toxicity or irritation, contains no pyrogen, as well as better degradation properties than biphasic calcium phosphate.

Objective:To discuss the effect of temperature-controlled shrinkage polytrimethylene carbonate(PTMC)/polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP)nanofiber membrane on the biological behavior of mouse fibroblasts and the repairment effect on full-thickness skin defects in the rats,and to clarify the potential mechanism.Methods:The murine L929 fibroblast cells were used in the in vitro experiments and were divided into control group and experimental group(treated with PTMC/PVP nanofiber membranes).The proliferation activities of the cells in two groups were detected by CCK-8 assay;the numbers of live/dead cells in two groups were observed by live/dead cell staining;the morphology of the cells was observed by cytoskeletal staining.A total of 12 six-week-old male SD rats were selected in the in vivo experiment,and were randomly divided into control group and experimental group,and there were six rats in each group.The full-thickness skin defect model was established,and the rats in experimental group were treated with PTMC/PVP nanofiber membranes.The photographs were taken after operation,and the wound healing rates of the cells in two groups were calculated on the 0,3rd,6th,and 12th days.On the 6th and 12th days after operation,the skin samples around the wound of the rats in two groups were taken,and the histopathology of the would skin and adjacent tissue was detected by HE staining;the collagen deposition in wound skin tissue of the rats in two groups was observed by Masson trichrome staining;the numbers of angiogenesis in wound skin tissue of the rats were detected by CD31 immunohistochemical staining.Results:The CCK-8 assay results showed that the proliferation activity of the cells in experimental group showed an increasing trend on the 1st,3st,and 5st days,and there was no significant difference in the proliferation activities of the cells bewteen experimental group and control group(P＞0.05).The live/dead cell staining experiment results showed that compared with control group,the cell density and number of the cells in experimental group had no significant changes,and were predominantly live cells.The cytoskeletal staining results showed that the cells in experimental and control groups appeared spindle-shaped and well-spread.In the in vivo experiments,on the 3rd,6th,and 12th days,compared with control group,the wound healing rates of the cells in experimental group were increased(P＜0.01),and the wound healing rate of the cells was 95.45％on the 12th day,indicating nearly complete healing of the wound.The HE staining showed that on the 12th day,the wound skin structure of the cells in experimental group was more similar to the normal skin,and there was abundant granulation tissue,regular epidermal structure,and new blood vessel formation.The Masson trichrome staining results showed that compared with control group,the collagen deposition in wound tissue of the rats in experimental group was increased.The immunohistochemical staining results showed that the expression of CD31 in wound tissue of the rats in experimental group was increased,indicating the increasing of the number of angiogenesis.Conclusion:The PTMC/PVP thermoresponsive nanofiber membranes exhibit good biocompatibility and can promote the repairment of full-thickness skin defects in the rats;its mechanism may be related to the enhancement of proliferation activity of the basal cells.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical effects of the implantation of porous tantalum rod under three-dimensional (3D) C-arm positioning in the treatment of ARCO I and II non-traumatic femoral head necrosis. Methods: Fifty patients (58 hips, 39 males and 11 females, mean age 33.52 years) with non-traumatic femoral head in ARCO I-II were included from January 2009 to December 2011. All patients received implantation of porous tantalum rod. The 3D C-arm X-ray positioning was used in 24 patients (29 hips), while traditional C-arm X-ray positioning was performed in the other patients. The visual analogue scale (VAS), Harris score and superior rate were evaluated at 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 years after the surgery. Total hip arthroplasty was regarded as the end event for survival rate. Results: In the 3D C-arm X-ray positioning group, the VAS score decreased from 7.17±1.00 points preoperatively to 2.38±0.86 points at half year, to 2.10±1.40 points at 1 year, to 2.38±1.66 points at 2 years, and to 2.21±1.47 points at 4 years postoperatively (F=98.78, P=0.00). Meanwhile, the Harris score increased significantly from 73.97±3.49 points preoperatively to 89.90±1.93, 89.93±3.26, 89.21±5.83, 88.57±5.70 points at the follow up, respectively (F=84.35, P=0.00). According to the analysis of the pre-operative and post-operative image data, there was no significant difference in progress in the ARCO staging at 23 hips duration the follow-up. Four hips were developed to ARCO III and two hips to ARCO II. Thus, the success rate of operation was 79% (23/29). There were two hips underwent total hip arthroplasty, so the survival rate of femoral head was 93% (27/29). The trend of VAS score and Harris score in the C-arm X-ray positioning group was in accordance with the 3D C-arm X-ray positioning group but without statistically significant difference (P>0.05). The operation duration 31.38±3.96 min, blood loss 36.72±5.59 ml, the ratio of distance of metal rod to bone cortex in femoral neck 0.48±0.10, and the distance of mental rod to center of necrosis 0.18±0.07 cm in 3D C-arm X-ray positioning group was superior to C-arm X-ray positioning group (respectively 41.97±4.64 min, 41.49±4.46 ml, 0.46±0.06, 0.23±0.10 cm, P<0.05). Conclusion The implantation of tantalum rod in treating ARCO I-II non-traumatic femoral head necrosis can increase the function of hip joint, relieve the symptoms of necrosis of femoral head, alleviate the progress of femoral head necrosis in X-ray, and obtain a higher survival rate. The 3D C-arm positioning in surgical operation could improve the accuracy and safety of surgery.

Hip fractures are among the most common fractures in the elderly, presenting to be a leading cause of disability and mortality. Surgical treatment is currently the main treatment method for hip fractures. The incidence of perioperative malnutrition is increased after hip fractures in the elderly due to the comorbidities, decreased basal metabolic rate, accelerated protein breakdown, weakened anabolism and surgical stress. However, malnutrition not only increases the incidence of postoperative complications, but also leads to increased mortality, indicating an important role of perioperative nursing management of nutrition for the elderly patients with hip fractures. At present, there still lacks scientific guidance and application standards on perioperative nursing management of nutrition for the elderly patients with hip fractures. Therefore, the Orthopedic Nursing Committee of Chinese Nursing Association and the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate the Expert consensus on perioperative nursing management of nutrition for elderly patients with hip fractures ( version 2023) according to evidence-based medical evidences and their clinical experiences. Fourteen recommendations were made from aspects of nutrition screening, nutrition assessment, nutrition diagnosis, nutrition intervention and nutrition monitoring to provide guidance for perioperative nursing management of nutrition in elderly patients with hip fractures.

This research was aimed at establishing the pilot-scale purification technology of lipopeptide from marine-derived Bacillus marinus. We studied lipopeptide surfactivity interferences on scale-up unit technologies including acid precipitation, methanol extraction, solvent precipitation, salting out, extraction, silica gel column chromatography and HZ806 macroporous absorption resin column chromatography. Then, the unit technologies were combined in a certain order, to remove the impurities gradually, and to gain purified lipopeptide finally, with high recovery rate throughout the whole process. The novel pilot-scale purification technology could effectively isolate and purify lipopeptide with 87.51% to 100% purity in hectograms from 1 ton of Bacillus marinus B-9987 fermentation broth with more than 81.73% recovery rate. The first practical hectogram production of highly purified lipopeptide derived from Bacillus marinus was achieved. With this new purification method, using complex media became possible in fermentation process to reduce the fermentation cost and scale-up the purification for lipopeptide production. For practicability and economy, foaming problem resulting from massive water evaporation was avoided in this technology.

Pulmonary blast injury has become the main type of trauma in modern warfare, characterized by externally mild injuries but internally severe injuries, rapid disease progression, and a high rate of early death. The injury is complicated in clinical practice, often with multiple and compound injuries. Currently, there is a lack of effective protective materials, accurate injury detection instrument and portable monitoring and transportation equipment, standardized clinical treatment guidelines in various medical centers, and evidence-based guidelines at home and abroad, resulting in a high mortality in clinlcal practice. Therefore, the Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized military and civilian experts in related fields such as thoracic surgery and traumatic surgery to jointly develop the Clinical treatment guideline for pulmonary blast injury ( version 2023) by combining evidence for effectiveness and clinical first-line treatment experience. This guideline provided 16 recommended opinions surrounding definition, characteristics, pre-hospital diagnosis and treatment, and in-hospital treatment of pulmonary blast injury, hoping to provide a basis for the clinical treatment in hospitals at different levels.
