Objective To observe and compare the changes of bone mass and microarchitecture in ovariectomized rat left tibia by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry(DXA)and microCT(μCT).Methods Forty seven-month-old SD rats were randomly divided into ovariectomized(OVX)and sham-operated(SHAM)groups,twenty in each group.After killed at 3 weeks and 15 weeks post-surgery,DXA scanning were performed in the left tibia in vitro.The images of left tibia were divided into seven isometric regions of interest(ROI1-7).When analysis finished,bone density(BD)of each ROI and the total bone were determined.The samples were fixed by 4% paraformaldehyde and then placed in the specimen holder filled with deionized water.The sensitive regions for bone mass changes were selected for scanning by Fluro.After scanning,the regions involving 0.4mm slice thickness and 2.5mm distance far end from tibial growth plate were selected as the ROI of cortical bone analysis.The regions selected as ROI of cancellous analysis,were involved in 1.2mm slice thickness and 0.7mm distance at the far end from tibial growth plate.After three dimension reconstruction.2D images of the maximum intensity projection and pictures of 3D microarchitecture were obtained.and BD and microarchitectural parameters were quantitatively identified.All data was statistically processed with SPSS for Windows.Results At the 3rd week,BD of ROI1 in rat left tibia in OVX(0.2346±0.0280)g/cm2 was much lower than that(0.2660±0.01990)g/cm2 in SHAM(P＜0.05).While at the 15th week,BD of ROI1(0.2527±0.0161)and ROI2(0.1862±0.0052)g/cm2 in OVX were both lower than SHAM(0.2793±0.0229)and(0.1986±0.0102)g/cm2 respectively,P＜0.01 for both).Compared wim SHAM rat[cortical area(Ct-Ar)=(0.3138±0.0621)mm2,marrow area(Ma-Ar)=(8.44±1.25)mm2,total area(T-Ar)=(8.75±1.26)mm2,moment of inertia(Mm)=(3.485±0.373)mm4],there were significant increases in Ct-Ar(0.4306±0.1308)mm2,Ma-Ar(10.31±1.98)mm2,T-Ar(10.74±2.05)mm2,and Mm(4.101±0.726)mm4 in OVX mice at the 3rd week(P＜0.05 for all).While at the 15th week,only cortical thickness(Ct-Th)(0.0235±0.0024)mm showed a decrease in OVX group(P＜0.05).In OVX group,Ct-Th(0.0235±0.0024)mm and Ct-Ar(0.2528±0.0367)mm at 15 weeks were lower than that[Ct-Th=(0.0377±0.0098)mm,Ct-Ar=(0.4306±0.1308)mm2 at 3 weeks(P＜0.01 for both)].In SHAM group,inner perimeter(In-Pm)(13.38±0.54)mm,outer perimeter(Ot-Pm)(13.59±0.56)mm and Mm(4.096±0.364)mm4 at 15 weeks were higher than that[In-Pm=(12.41±0.74)mm,Ot-Pm=(12.63±0.75)mm,Mm=(3.485±0.373)mm4 at 3 weeks(P＜0.01 for all)].OVX rats had much lower volume BD(vBD)(288.2±48.2)mg/mm3,tissue BD(tBD)(604.5±45.3)mg/mm3,bone volume fraction(BVF)(25.1±5.1)%,and trabecular mumeer(Tb-N)(6.04±2.94)mm-1(P＜0.01 for all),but higher structure model index(SMI)3.09±0.27 and trabecular separation(Tb-Sp)(0.186±0.129)mm than SHAM 2.63±0.21 and(0.078±0.038)mm respectively at the 3rd week(P＜0.01 and P＜0.05 respectively).At the 15th week,vBD(271.2±50.9)mg/mm3,BVF(21.6±5.2)%and Tb-N (3.21±1.92)mm-1 in OVX were still lower than SHAM[vBD=(389.8±77.0)mg/mm3,BVF=(30.9±6.0)%,Tb-N=(7.44±3.53)mm-1 respectively(P＜0.01 for all)],SMI 3.11±0.36 and Tb-Sp(0.370±0.215)mm in OVX were also higher than SHAM 2.58±0.36 and(0.141±0.104)mm(P＜0.01 for both),but no significant difference of tBD could be found.In OVX group.the scores of tBD(691.0±36.7)mg/mm,Tb-Th(0.040±0.009)mm,Tb-N(3.21±1.92)mm-1,Tb-Sp(0.370±0.215)mm in the 15th week were higher than that[tBD=(604.5±45.3)mg/mm,Tb-Th=(0.030±0.002)mm,Tb-N=(6.04±2.94)mm-1,Tb-Sp=(0.186±0.129)mm respectively]in the 3rd week (P＜0.05 for all),while there were no differences between the 3rd and the 15th week in SHAM group.Conclusions DXA is weak in detecting the tiny changes of BD though it is convenient and non-invasive.μCT is suitable to detect the changes of bone mass and microarchitecture.

Abstract The popularity of electronic devices helps the spread of the flow experience. Flow experience affects many aspects of life for adolescents as for its double articulation. In order to provide suggestions for the improvement in adolescent mental health, this paper reviews flow experience and adolescent mental health in different situations. In learning situation, the state of flow makes a difference in students self confidence, learning experience, positive affect in school, positivity, self esteem and self efficacy, etc., at the same time, it is beneficial to relieve academic pressure and academic procrastination. In entertainment situation, the state of flow experience directly leads to addiction, and indirectly affects online game addiction by the mediating roles of self control and cognitive bias.

Small renal cell carcinoma refers to a renal malignant tumor with a maximum diameter of 4 cm.Due to the small size, its diagnosis and differential diagnosis have been difficult points in clinical work. CT texture analysis is an emerging technique, it determines the tumor heterogeneity by analyzing the distribution and relationship of pixel or voxel gray-scale levels in the CT images, it acts to more accurately predict the benign and malignant tumors and the classification of tumors.This paper reviews CT texture analysis on the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of small renal cell carcinoma, in order to guide the correct diagnosis of doctors and effectively clinical treatment.

Glioblastoma(GBM)is a lethal cancer with limited therapeutic options.Dendritic cell(DC)-based cancer vaccines provide a promising approach for GBM treatment.Clinical studies suggest that other immu-notherapeutic agents may be combined with DC vaccines to further enhance antitumor activity.Here,we report a GBM case with combination immunotherapy consisting of DC vaccines,anti-programmed death-1(anti-PD-1)and poly I:C as well as the chemotherapeutic agent cyclophosphamide that was integrated with standard chemoradiation therapy,and the patient remained disease-free for 69 months.The patient received DC vaccines loaded with multiple forms of tumor antigens,including mRNA-tumor associated antigens(TAA),mRNA-neoantigens,and hypochlorous acid(HOCl)-oxidized tumor lysates.Furthermore,mRNA-TAAAs were modified with a novel TriVac technology that fuses TAAs with a destabilization domain and inserts TAAs into full-length lysosomal associated membrane protein-1 to enhance major histo-compatibility complex(MHC)class Ⅰ and Ⅱ antigen presentation.The treatment consisted of 42 DC cancer vaccine infusions,26 anti-PD-1 antibody nivolumab administrations and 126 poly I:C injections for DC infusions.The patient also received 28 doses of cyclophosphamide for depletion of regulatory T cells.No immunotherapy-related adverse events were observed during the treatment.Robust antitumor CD4+and CD8+T-cell responses were detected.The patient remains free of disease progression.This is the first case report on the combination of the above three agents to treat glioblastoma patients.Our results suggest that integrated combination immunotherapy is safe and feasible for long-term treatment in this patient.A large-scale trial to validate these findings is warranted.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the risk factors of linezolid-induced hyponatremia， and establish nomogram model of linezolid-induced hyponatremia.METHODS The clinical information of 142 patients who received linezolid therapy were collected from Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from April 2019 to May 2021 including demographic characteristics， laboratory index， concomitant disease and drug combination. They were divided into hyponatremia group and non-hyponatremia group according to whether hyponatremia occurred； univariate analysis was used to compare the differences of variables between the two groups； the independent risk factors for linezolid-induced hyponatremia were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression. The nomogram model was set up to identify the occurrence risk of linezolid-induced hyponatremia， receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve and calibration curve， Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test were used to evaluate the predictive effectiveness of the model.RESULTS Of 142 patients， 30 patients suffered from hyponatremia， and 112 patients did not suffer， the incidence of adverse drug reaction was 21.1%. Univariate analysis showed that there was statistical significance in trough concentration of linezolid， baseline serum sodium， white blood cell count， total bilirubin， albumin， alanine aminotransferase， aspartate aminotransferase， combined use of spironolactone between hyponatremia group and non-hyponatremia group （P＜0.05）. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that trough concentration of linezolid [OR＝1.128， 95%CI（1.028-1.239）]， baseline serum sodium [OR＝0.719， 95%CI（0.604-0.857）] and total bilirubin [OR＝1.007， 95%CI（1.002， 1.011）] were independent risk factors for linezolid-induced hyponatremia （P＜0.05）. The area under the ROC curve （95%CI） of the nomogram model was 0.874 （0.794-0.995）； the sensitivity and specificity were 88.4% and 76.7%. The average absolute error of calibration curve was 0.017. The results of Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test showed that there was no statistically significant difference between the predicted risk value and the measured value （χ 2＝4.941，P＝0.064）. CONCLUSIONS The trough concentration of linezolid， baseline serum sodium and total bilirubin are independent risk factors for linezolid-induced hyponatremia. The established nomogram model shows well predictive performance to identify linezolid-induced hyponatremia.

Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) may have an effect on the pain associated with orthodontic treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of LLLT on pain and somatosensory sensitization induced by orthodontic treatment. Forty individuals (12-33 years old; mean ± standard deviations: 20.8 ± 5.9 years) scheduled to receive orthodontic treatment were randomly divided into a laser group (LG) or a placebo group (PG) (1:1). The LG received LLLT (810-nm gallium-aluminium-arsenic diode laser in continuous mode with the power set at 400 mW, 2 J·cm) at 0 h, 2 h, 24 h, 4 d, and 7 d after treatment, and the PG received inactive treatment at the same time points. In both groups, the non-treated side served as a control. A numerical rating scale (NRS) of pain, pressure pain thresholds (PPTs), cold detection thresholds (CDTs), warmth detection thresholds (WDTs), cold pain thresholds (CPTs), and heat pain thresholds (HPTs) were tested on both sides at the gingiva and canine tooth and on the hand. The data were analysed by a repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA). The NRS pain scores were significantly lower in the LG group (P = 0.01). The CDTs, CPTs, WDTs, HPTs, and PPTs at the gingiva and the PPTs at the canine tooth were significantly less sensitive on the treatment side of the LG compared with that of the PG (P < 0.033). The parameters tested also showed significantly less sensitivity on the non-treatment side of the LG compared to that of the PG (P < 0.043). There were no differences between the groups for any quantitative sensory testing (QST) measures of the hand. The application of LLLT appears to reduce the pain and sensitivity of the tooth and gingiva associated with orthodontic treatment and may have contralateral effects within the trigeminal system but no generalized QST effects. Thus, the present study indicated a significant analgesia effect of LLLT application during orthodontic treatment. Further clinical applications are suggested.
