Alternative designs have been explored in an attempt to improve the longevity of acetabular prostheses in revision surgery. Many studies had been designed to test the result of the extra-large uncemented hemispherical acetabular components used for acetabular revision in the presence of bone loss. A clinical study of a new acetabular component consisting of a porous metal shell with three wings and an all-polyethylene liner had attained a satisfying result. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the new acetabular component by comparison with the hemispherical acetabular component. The finite-element models of the two acetabular components and the acetabulum in the presence of bone loss were established to calculate the interface stresses during a normal gait cycle with use of the finite-element formulations. Results of the finite-element analysis demonstrated that stress and strain of the two acetabular components had the same direction of change, but the new component had higher stress at the root of wings. In the study, the result indicated reduced contact stresses with a reduced abduction angle of wings. The stress was lower in the new acetabular component of 15° angle of wings compared with the new acetabularcomponent of 30°of wings and hemispherical acetabular component (P < 0.05). The stress of acetabular component with wings showed no remarkable difference by comparison with the extra-large uncemented hemispherical acetabular component. Reducing abduction angle of wings seemed to be a viable means of reducing the stress of the acetabular component while improving its stability.

Methods Serial subcultivation gastric cancer cells BGC823,MKN45,and SGC7901 cultured in vitro were grouped into test and control groups.TGF-?1 was added to the test group,but not to control group.Cell culture fluid was collected and centrifuged after cultured 24h,and crossing with WCX2 protein chip to detect protein differences. Results When the test group was compared with control group,we found:(1) thirteen different proteins in BGC823 cells after TGF-?1 stimulaton,and their M/Z were M4294,M4932,M4945,M4972,M4991,M5015,5036,M5060,M5153,M5180,M5197,M8577,and M8784,respectively;(2) eighteen different proteins in MKN45 cells after TGF-?1 stimulaton,and their M/Z were M4292,M4931,M4945,M4972,M4990,M5014,M5152,M5178,M7055,M8190,M8570,M8652,M8670,M8780,M9963,M10098,M10523,and M11653,respectively;(3) eight difference proteins in SGC7901 cells after TGF-?1 stimulation,and their M/Z were M4945,M4972,M4992,M5015,M5180,M7056,M8573,and M8604,respectively. By comparing three protein expression profiles of gastric cancer cells after TGF-?1 treatment,we found two significcant proteins with common differences,that had M/Z of M4945 and M4972,respectively. Conclusions The biological markers whose M/Z is M4945,M4972 with gastric cancer characteristic and associated with TGF-?1 have been screened,which can be as the basis for early prediction and clinical diagnosis research on metastasis and invasiveness of gastric cancer.

BACKGROUND: The intelligence retardation in children refers to hypo-intelligence structure of full intelligence quotient(FIQ) composed of performance intelligence quotient(PIQ) and verbal intelligence quotient (VIQ) . It is verified in some researches that some of compound formulas provide better intervention on it.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of yizhi koufuye on intelligence structure in children with intelligence retardation.DESIGN: Homochronous controlled study based on children.SETTING: Pediatric department in a provincial college of traditional Chinese medicine and one provincial rehabilitation center.PARTICIPANTS: The cases were selected in Rehabilitative Central Hospital in Gansu Province and Clinic of the Hospital Affiliated to Gansu College of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January to July 2002. They were 74 students in Fudu Schools in Chenguan District, Lanzhou City, aged varied from 6 to 16 years, diagnosed as intelligence retardation according to CCMD-Ⅱ-R proposed Intelligence Retardation Diagnostic Standards, and they were able to accept medical and training treatment and were absent of congenital hereditary chromosome disorders. Of those, 47 cases were males and 27 cases females. They were divided into treatment group of 33 cases,the control of 20 cases and simple educational training group of 21 cases.METHODS: In treatment group of 33 cases, yizhi koufuye was administrated and was taken 15 mL each time for children younger than 10 years old, 20 mL for those between 10 to 14 years old and 25 mL for those over 14years old. In addition, the special educational training was applied. In the control of 20 cases, oral application of piracetam was prescribed, 0.4 g per time, 3 times a day and the special educational training was applied additionally. In simple educational training group of 21 cases, the children only received special education same as those in treatment group and the control. Three months made one session. Chinese-Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (C-WISC) and specific devices were used to assess FIQ and PIQ and VIQ in classified IQ in 3 groups before and after treatments, and the control comparisons were carried on among groups.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Improvement of FIQ and improved values of VIQ and PIQ in 3 groups.RESULTS: Totally 74 cases were selected and no one lost. Improvement of FIQ: In treatment group, there were 44.7±9.8 and 51.8 ± 11.5 before and after treatment respectively, t = 2. 701, P ＜ 0.01; In the control, there were 43.8 ± 14.0 and 51.0 ± 13.6 before and after treatment respectively, t = 1. 680, P ＞ 0. 05; In simple educational training group, there were 41.6 ± 7.8 and 45.2 ± 10.6 before and after treatment respectively, t = 1. 561 and P ＞ 0.05.

Improved values of PIQ: It was 4.0 ± 3.6 in treatment group and P ＜ 0. 05 compared with 1.7± 2. 2 in the control and simple educational training group. Improving extent of VIQ was 8. 1 ± 5. 5 and of PIQ was 4.0 ± 3.6 in treatment group, P ＜ 0. 01.CONCLUSION: Yizhi koufuye improves markedly FIQ of children with intelligence retardation and for the classified IQ, the improving extent of VIQ is superior to that of PIQ.

Objective To analyze and evaluate a new acetabular revision component with three wings. Methods The finite-element models of a new acetabular component and acetabulum with bone loss were established to calculate the interface stresses during a normal gait cycle with use of the finite-element formulations. Results The finite-element analysis demonstrated that stress and strain at the interfaces of bone-shell and metal-polyethylene liner had the same direction of change but no remarkable difference between them. In the study, the result indicated increased contact stresses with an increased joint load and orientation. The peak stress was tested at the second stage of gait cycle. The stress of wings increased gradually from rim to root. Its peak stress that was significantly lower than yield force of the Co-Cr alloy was at the joint between the wing and the shell. The stress of graft had the same change rule as the joint force. The part of graft near to acetabular component was subjected to higher stress conditions. Conclusion The hip forces can transfer from acetabular component and implant to acetabulum. The result of the finite-element analysis underlined the importance of wings of the new acetabular component. The wing can help to improve the antitorsion ability of acetabular component and to minimize its aseptic loosening rate. Therefore, based on results of this study and clinical application, the acetabular component with wings is known a viable means for acetabular revision in the presence of bone loss. But further research is needed as to this acetabular component.

BACKGROUND:Alternative implants affect stability of prostheses,and freeze-dried bone allografts are most selected as implants.The crack between grafts and host bone is unavoidable,which would weaken the bone integration.Bone cement can fill the cracks quickly and completely,however,the effects of bone cement on the stress of prostheses and its own remains poorly understood.OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of the different grafting for bone loss in the presence of the new acetabular component with wings at the time of acetabular revision.METHODS:The finite-element models of acetabular component with three wings and acetabulum with bone loss were established.Following prostheses implantation,the gaps were filled with bone cement and freeze-dried bone allograft,respectively,stress of the graft and its effect on prostheses were analyzed under 2 158 N and 426 N acetabular loads.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The finite-element analysis demonstrated that stress and strain at the interfaces of bone-shell and metal-polyethylene liner had the same direction of change but no significant difference between them.In the study,the result indicated increased contact stresses with an increased hip force and orientation.The stress of wings increased gradually from rim to root.Its peak stress was at the joint between the wing and the shell.The different grafts did not affect the stress of the acetabular component.But the stress of bone cement was significantly higher than that of particulate bone.The study demonstrated that change of the graft could not make remarkable effect on the stress of the acetabular component.But the stress of bone cement increased significantly.The result of the finite-element analysis indicated that particulate bone graft is benefit to improving itsstability and to minimize aseptic loosening rate of acetabular component.

Objective To explore the potential impact of low concentration of metformin on the morphology and function of mitochondria of HepG2 cells. Methods HepG2 cells in experimental group and control group were treated with or without low concentration of metformin (1mM/L), respectively. The cells were incubated for 12h in the incubator with constant temperature and humidity as well as 1% oxygen. Orange Mitoview was used to stain the mitochondria to detect the effects of the drug on its morphology and quantity. Transmission electron microscope was utilized to observe the effect of metformin on the ultrastructure of mitochondria. The mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I activity in HepG2 cell was detected by Complex I Enzyme Activity Dipstick Assay Kit (DAK). Results Orange Mitoview staining showed that low concentration of metformin had little effect on the morphology and number of mitochondria of cells in experimental group , and the difference between control and experimental group was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). In addition, the result was further determined by transmission electron microscopy. However, DAK analysis showed that complex I activity of cells in experimental group was significantly lower than that in control group. Conclusion Under Hypoxia conditions, low concentration of metformin had no significant effect on the morphology and number of mitochondria of HepG2 cells, but it significantly reduces the activity of mitochondria of HepG2 cells.

Objective:To analyze the changes of serum lipidomics in patients with sepsis and healthy controls, search for the differences of lipid metabolites, and reveal the changes of lipidomics in the process of sepsis.Methods:A prospective observational study was conducted. From September 2019 to April 2020, morning blood samples of upper extremity superficial veins were collected from 30 patients with definite sepsis diagnosed in intensive care unit (ICU) of Shanxi Bethune Hospital and 30 age-matched healthy subjects during the same period. Serum lipid metabolites were analyzed by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS), and the quality control samples were analyzed by base peak spectroscopy (BPC) and verified experimental repetition. Student t-test and fold change (FC) were used for screening significant differences in lipid metabolites and determining their expression changes. Principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal projectionto latent structure discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were used to determine the entire allocation of experimental groups apiece, access the quality of being near to the true value of model, and screen the differential lipid metabolites with variable importance of projection (VIP). Finally, Metabo Analyst platform database was used to analyze lipid molecular metabolic pathways. Results:BPC results showed that the experimental repeatability was good and the experimental data was reliable. The main parameter model interpretation rate of PCA model R 2X = 0.511, indicating that the model was reliable. The main parameter model interpretation rate of OPLS-DA model R 2Y = 0.954, Q 2 = 0.913, indicating that the model was stable and reliable. With FC > 2.0 or FC < 0.5, P < 0.05, a total of 72 differential lipid metabolites were obtained based on VIP > 1. Based on Metabo Analyst 5.0, 24 distinguishable lipid metabolites were identified including 8 phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), 7 lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), 6 phosphatidylcholine (PC), 2 lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE) and 1 phosphatidylserine (PS). Compared with healthy volunteers, the lipid molecules expression proved down-regulated in most sepsis patients, including PC, LPC, LPE, and some PE, while some PE and PS were up-regulated, which was mainly related to the PE (18∶0p/20∶4), PC (16∶0/16∶0) and LPC (18∶1) metabolic pathways in glycerophospholipids. Conclusions:There are significant differences in lipid metabolites between the sera of sepsis patients and healthy volunteers. PE (18∶0p/20∶4), PC (16∶0/16∶0) and LPC (18∶1) may be new targets for sepsis prediction and intervention.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of omacycline with meropenem plus linezolid in the treatment of patients with pulmonary infection.Methods:The clinical data of 58 patients with pulmonary infection admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou Red Cross Hospital and Jiande First People’s Hospital from December 2021 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into the omacycline group ( n=29) and the meropenem combined with linezolid group (combined group, n=29). The omacycline group was given intravenous omacycline 200 mg or 100 mg, q. d, and the combined group was given intravenous meropenem (1 000 mg, t.i.d) and linezolid (600 mg, b. i.d). The clinical efficacy and drug-related adverse events of two groups were observed. SPSS 22.0 statistical software was used for data analysis. Results:In the omacycline group, 8 cases (27.6%, 8/29) were cured, 19 cases (65.5%, 19/29) were improved, and 2 cases (6.9%, 2/29) were worsened. In the combined group, 1 case (3.4%, 1/29) was cured, 26 cases (89.7%, 26/29) were improved, and 2 cases (6.9%, 2/29) died. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=6.533, P=0.038). The respiratory failure occurred in 3 cases (10.3%, 3/29) of the omacycline group and 5 cases (17.2%, 5/29) of the combined group ( χ2=0.580, P=0.446). In those patients who were cured or improved, the median time from treatment initiation to disease remission was 3.0 (2.0, 5.5) d in the omacycline group and 5.0 (4.0, 6.0) d in the combined group ( Z=-2.122, P=0.034). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups [6.9% (2/29) vs. 13.8% (4/29), χ2=0.744, P=0.389]. Conclusion:Omacycline exhibits a good efficacy and safety in the treatment of patients with pulmonary infection, which may be prioritized for the treatment of pulmonary infections.
