Objective To explore the related risk factors of type 2 diabetic nephropathy,and to provide theoretical basis to make the strategy of prevention of diabetic nephropathy.Methods By case-control study method,98 patients with type 2 diabetic nephropathy were selected as the observation group.98 diabetes mellitus patients without kidney disease were selected as control group.Single factor analysis and non-conditional logistic regression analysis were conducted in two groups.Results The results of single factor analysis showed that type 2 diabetic nephropathy was closely related to family history of diabetes,course of diabetes,high blood pressure,diabetic retinopathy,BMI,coronary heart disease,HbAlc,FPG,2hPG,CRP (P ＜ 0.05).The results of multiple factors of logistic regression showed that type 2 diabetic nephropathy was closely related to course of diabetes and diabetic retinopathy,CRP,HbA1c,FPG(P ＜0.05).Conclusion Course of diabetes and diabetic retinopathy,CRP,HbA1c,FPG are independent risk factors for type 2 diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To investigate the expression of p-MNK1 in non-small cell lung cancer and its relationship with clinic pathological features and prognosis.Methods The level of p-MNK1 in 115 cases of nonsmall cell lung cancer was detected by tissue microarray technique and immunohistochemistry technique.Results The level of p-MNK 1 in non-small cell lung cancer was correlated with cancer tissue type (P ＜ 0.05),clinical stage (P ＜ 0.05),lymph node metastasis (P ＜ 0.01) and prognosis (P ＜ 0.05).Cox multiple regression analysis showed that p-MNK1 expression was an independent prognostic factor for non-small cell lung cancer (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The level of p-MNK1 in non-small cell lung cancer is associated with poor prognosis.It can be used as an independent prognostic marker and a new therapeutic target.

Objective To investigate the incidence and clinical characteristics of urothelial carcinoma (UC) accompanied with multiple primary carcinoma (MPC). Methods The clinical data of 121 UC patients with MPC in Peking University Third Hospital from January 2010 to May 2018 were retrospectly analyzed. Results UC patients with MPC accounted for 9.74%( 121／1 242) of all the UC patients. The ratio of male to female patients was 2.10 ∶ 1 in the total MPC patients, but it was 1 ∶ 1 in the upper urinary tract MPC subgroup. The MPC patients were more common in elderly people, whose medium age was 68 (32?93) years old. Of all the location (131 person?time) of other tumors besides UC, the digestive system tumors occurred most frequently, accounting for 41.98%( 55／131), followed by the urinary and male reproductive system tumors (20.61%, 27／131) and the female reproductive system ( 12.21%, 16／131). The proportion of the digestive system tumors (47.37%, 9／19) was the highest in the upper urinary tract MPC, with a total number of the other primary cancer of 19 person?time. However, the proportion of the urinary and male reproductive system tumors (37.14%, 13／35) was higher in the synchronous MPC group, with a total number of the other primary cancer of 35 person?time.Some patients had a history of radiotherapy and／or chemotherapy before UC was diagnosed. We also observed 2 cases of genetically confirmed Lynch syndrome. The median overall survival (mOS) of UC patients with MPC was 132 months, and the mOS of patients with UC as the first malignancy ( including synchronous MPC and UC as the first malignancy in metachronous MPC) was 120 months. The mOS of the synchronous MPC group was 84 months, which was significantly shorter than 178 months of metachronous MPC group (χ2＝14.029, P＜0.001). Conclusions The incidence of UC accompanied with MPC is not low, and the most common sites of MPC are the digestive system and reproductive system. Therefore, screening for MPC in UC patients, especially those with personal or family history of tumors, as well as elderly patients, may help early diagnosis and treatment of MPC patients and improve their prognoses.

Objective To evaluate the long-term efficacy of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(TIPS)with bare stents and Fluency covered stents in the treatment of portal hypertension,and to discuss its clinical value.Methods The clinical data of 29 patients with intractable ascites or esophagogastric fundus varices rupture and hemorrhage caused by cirrhotic portal hypertension,who received TIPS with bare stents and covered stents at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University of China(25 patients)and the Lishui Municipal Central Hospital of China(4 patients)between August 2012 and December 2017,were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were regularly followed up to check the survival status.The postoperative cumulative shunt patency rate and cumulative survival rate of the patients were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method.Results The technical success rate of TIPS was 100％.The mean portal vein pressure was decreased from preoperative(40.21±3.24)cmH2O to postoperative(24.55±3.55)cmH2O(P＜0.05).The patients were followed up for 5.1-10.5 years.The postoperative 1-,3-,5-,7-year primary cumulative patency rates of the shunt were 89.7％,75.9％,75.9％ and 52.5％,respectively.The postoperative 5-,7-,9-and 10-year cumulative survival rates were 100％,66.9％,66.9％ and 33.4％,respectively.The incidence of hepatic encephalopathy was 13.8％(4/29).Conclusion Using bare stents combined with Fluency covered stents for TIPS is clinically safe and effective in the treatment of portal hypertension.This technique carries higher long-term shunt patency rate and low incidence of hepatic encephalopathy.Therefore,it can be used as a substitute for Viatorr stent when necessary.(J Intervent Radiol,2024,33:295-299)

Objective:This study aimed to explore the clinical value of myostatin(MST) and follistatin(FST) as biological biomarkers in evaluating sarcopenia in elderly women.Methods:This was a retrospective cross-sectional study that enrolled 350 females aged 20-89 years who underwent physical examinations in Shanghai Huadong Hospital in 2021. Demographic characteristics, muscle mass, fat mass, bone mineral density, hand grip strength, gait speed, and serum indices of MST and FST were collected.Results:The serum levels of MST did not change significantly with age. However, the serum levels of FST increased with age. In women aged≥60 years, MST was positively correlated with total lean mass and appendicular skeletal muscle index(ASMI; r=0.236, P=0.041; r=0.289, P=0.014), while FST was negatively correlated with ASMI( r=-0.265, P=0.030). In multivariate stepwise regression analysis, after adjusting for age, body mass index, hip bone mineral density, and total fat mass, only FST was independently correlated with ASMI( β=-0.238, P=0.006), while MST was not correlated with ASMI. The receiver operating characteristic curve was plotted using muscle mass reduction as the state variable and serum FST level as the test variable. The area under the curve was 0.753. And when the FST cutoff value was 17.49 ng/mL, the maximum Jordan index was 0.46, with a sensitivity of 77.3% and a specificity of 68.7%. Women aged ≥60 years were divided into three groups based on serum FST levels. Compared to the upper third of the serum FST level group, the low third of the FST level group had a significantly reduced risk of suffering from sarcopenia( OR=0.098, P =0.036). Conclusions:Serum FST lever has a better correlation with muscle mass among elderly women, making it a promising biomarker for evaluating muscle mass.

The mOS of the synchronous MPC group was 84 months, which was significantly shorter than 178 months of metachronous MPC group (χ² =14.029, P<0.001). Conclusions The incidence of UC accompanied with MPC is not low, and the most common sites of MPC are the digestive system and reproductive system. Therefore, screening for MPC in UC patients, especially those with personal or family history of tumors, as well as elderly patients, may help early diagnosis and treatment of MPC patients and improve their prognoses.

Periarticular fracture of the shoulder is a common type of fractures in the elderly. Postoperative adverse events such as internal fixation failure, humeral head ischemic necrosis and upper limb dysfunction occur frequently, which seriously endangers the exercise and health of the elderly. Compared with the fracture with normal bone mass, the osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder is complicated with slow healing and poor rehabilitation, so the clinical management becomes more difficult. At present, there is no targeted guideline or consensus for this type of fracture in China. In such context, experts from Youth Osteoporosis Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatrics Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, Osteoporosis Group of Youth Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons and Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Chinese Integrative Medicine developed the Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder in the elderly ( version 2023). Nine recommendations were put forward from the aspects of diagnosis, treatment strategies and rehabilitation of osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder, hoping to promote the standardized, systematic and personalized diagnosis and treatment concept and improve functional outcomes and quality of life in elderly patients with osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of upper limb robot-assisted therapy on upper limb function and cerebral cortex activation in stroke patients using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). MethodsFrom January, 2022 to January, 2023, 32 stroke patients in Zhejiang Rehabilitation Medical Center were randomly divided into control group (n = 16) and experimental group (n = 16). Both groups received routine neurological medication and routine rehabilitation. The control group received routine upper limb exercises, the experimental group received upper limb robot-assisted therapy. They were assessed with Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremities (FMA-UE) and fNIRS (oxyhemoglobin, deoxyhemoglobin, and total hemoglobin) before and four weeks after treatment. NIRS_SPM was used for activation analysis, Homer2 was used for blood oxygen concentration analysis. ResultsAfter treatment, the score of FMA-UE increased in both groups (|t| > 5.910, P < 0.001), and was higher in the experimental group than in the control group (t = -2.348, P < 0.05). fNIRS activation results showed that, the activation increased in the experimental group after treatment in channel 17 (F = 9.354, P < 0.01), and it was more than that in the control group (F = 5.217, P < 0.05). fNIRS blood oxygen concentration results showed that, the blood oxygen concentration increased in the experimental group after treatment in channel 17 (F = 12.179, P < 0.01), and it was more than that in the control group (F = 4.883, P < 0.05). ConclusionThe upper limb robot-assisted therapy can improve the upper limb motor function and cerebral cortex activation of stroke patients.
