Objective To analyze peri-implant alveolar bone loss with radiography. Methods 38 implants were inserted in 27 cases. The peri-implant alveolar bone was observed and measured with intraoral radiography at time of insertion, functional loading, and 3, 6, 12 months after functional loading. Results The mean peri-implant alveolar bone loss was 0.35 mm immediately after functional loading, 0.57 mm, 0.67 mm,1.01 mm at 3,6,12 months later. There was not significant difference of bone loss between maxilla and mandible, neither of submerged and non-submerged implants. ITI implants performed significantly less bone loss than Replace Select within 3 months after functional loading (P<0.01). Conclusion Osseointegration will successfully be obtained on implants involved. The peri-implant alveolar bone loss with ITI is less than that with Replace Select. The bone loss is not different between submerged and non-submerged implants.

Objective: To investigate the level of injury first aid skills and its influencing factors among parents of preschool children in Dongxihu District, Wuhan City, so as to provide insights into carrying out targeted health education work. Methods: Parents of preschool children from kindergarten in Dongxihu District were selected using multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method. Basic information of preschool children, parents' demographic information, and parents' knowledge of injury first aid skills were collected through questionnaires. The level of injury first aid skills among parents was analyzed and its influencing factors were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 1 148 questionnaires were allocated and 1 131 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 98.52%. The respondents included 242 men (21.40%) and 889 women (78.60%). The parents surveyed were mainly mothers, with 862 accounting for 76.22%. The level of injury first aid skills was 39.43%. Among the individual injury first aid skills, the proportions of mastering the treatment of cardiac arrest and arm fracture were relatively high, which were 94.69% and 94.16%, respectively, while the proportion of mastering the correct steps of cardiopulmonary resuscitation was the lowest, at 31.21%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the grade of children (middle class, OR=1.374, 95%CI: 1.021-1.847; senior class, OR=1.561, 95%CI: 1.147-2.125), age (30 to 34 years old, OR=1.712, 95%CI: 1.170-2.505), education level (high school/technical secondary school and below, OR=0.664, 95%CI: 0.515-0.857), and having learned injury first aid skills (OR=1.653, 95%CI: 1.284-2.129) were influencing factors of injury first aid skills among parents of preschool children. Conclusions The level of injury first aid skills among parents of preschool children is relatively low. The first aid ability of parents whose children are in small classes, older, less educated, and have not learned injury first aid skills should be specifically improved.

BACKGROUND:Little data have been available concerning the mechanism of drag resistance and anti-apoptosis in leukemic cells of leukemia children.The majority of studies focus on normal bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and established stroma cells,but not interaction of MSCs and leukemic cells in leukemia children.OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of MSCs in leukemia children on the proliferation and apoptosis of leukemic cell strain K562/AO_2.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:In vitro cytology experiment was performed at the laboratory of Department of Pediatrics,First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical College from December 2007 to August 2008.MATERIALS:MSCs were provided by 30 leukemia children admitted to First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical College,including 22 acute lymphoblastic leukemia and 8 acute myeloblastic leukemia.Written informed content was obtained from all families.K562/AO_2 was provided by Tianjin Institute of Hematopathy.METHODS:MSCs were isolated and cultured by Ficoll density gradient method.They were cultured in two conditions:the co-culture of MSCs and K562/AO_2 and K562/AO_2 suspension alone.In co-culture group,1×10~8 /L K562/AO_2 cells at log phase were added to confluent MSCs,and free floating K562/AO_2 cells were discarded after 24 hours.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Effect of MSCs on the growth of K562/AO_2 cells was observed;effect of addamycln on K562/AO_2 cell apoptosis was detected by AnnexinV-FITC method.Cell cycle was determined by flow cytomtry,mdrl gene of K562/AO_2 cell was detected by Taqman-MGB probe real-time PCR.RESULTS:Compared with K562/AO_2 alone,the K562/AO_2 cell co-cultured with MSCs grew slower and the log phase of growth was not significant;the rate of apoptosis in earlier period was significantly decreased (P ＜ 0.05);co-cultured K562/AO_2 G_0-G_1 phase increased,but S phase decreased.No changes in mdr1 gene in cells were found between two culture conditions (P ＞ 0.05).CONCLUSION:In vitro cytology has demonstrated that leukemia children MSCs induce drug resistance of K562/AO_2 cells by changing K562/AO2 cell cycle through adhesion to avoid pro-apoptotic effect of drugs but not related with mdr1 gene.

Objective To prepare a human meningococcal reference serum and standardize IgG concentrations to capsular polysaccharides and in vitro bactericidal activities of the reference serum against serogroup A, C, Y and W135 strains.Methods Twenty healthy adults were recruited and given one dose of immunization with tetravalent (serogroups A, C, Y and W135) meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine . Plasma samples were collected and gone through a series of process treatments including defibrination , filtra-tion, and lyophilization to prepare the meningococcal reference serum Men 10.The IgG concentrations of Men10 to capsular polysaccharides of serogroups A , C, Y and W135 were calibrated by using an internation-al reference serum CDC1992 as the standard in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Provisional IgG concentrations of Men10 were intensively validated by testing a panel of 12 calibration serum samples from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention , USA ( US CDC) and a panel of 56 serum samples immu-nized with A, C, Y and W135 meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine from Lanzhou Institute of Biological Products Co., Ltd.(LIBP) with the assays using Men10 and CDC1992 as the standard and/or test sam-ples, respectively.The bactericidal titers against serogroup A , C, Y and W135 strains were measured by se-rum bactericidal assay (SBA).Results Four thousand vials (0.5 ml/vial)of lyophilized human meningo-coccal reference serum Men10 were successfully prepared with 2.5%of residual moisture .Reference serum Men10 was sterile and free from contamination by hepatitis B virus , hepatitis C virus , human immunodefi-ciency virus and syphilis .Provisional IgG concentration of Men 10 to capsular polysaccharide of serogroups A, C, Y and W135 was calibrated by using CDC1992 as the standard.Furthermore, IgG concentrations of both panels of 12 CDC calibration serum samples and 56 LIBP serum samples calibrated by using Men 10 as the standard correlated well with those by using CDC1992 as the standard (r=0.99,P<0.05).The IgG concentrations of CDC1992 as calibrated by using Men10 as the standard showed significant correlation with its previously determined values with variation <10%.SBA titers for serotype A , C, Y and W135 strains were established as well .Conclusion A panel of new human meningococcal reference serum Men 10 with accurately calibrated IgG concentration against capsular polysaccharide of serogroups A , C, Y and W135 as well as SBA titers was successfully established .

Objective:To develop a nomogram predictive model on the basis of identification of the risk factors associated with failure in repositioning the dislocation of the subaxial cervical spine with locked facets by skull traction.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted of the clinical data of the patients who had been treated for dislocation of the subaxial cervical spine with locked facets at Department of Orthopaedic Trauma, The Hospital Affiliated to Guizhou Medical University and Department of Spine Surgery, The People's Hospital of Guizhou Province from January 2014 to December 2022. The clinical data from The Hospital Affiliated to Guizhou Medical University were used as a training set (156 cases) and those from The People's Hospital of Guizhou Province as an external validation set (54 cases). Univariate analysis and multi-variate logistic regression analysis of the training set were conducted to screen out independent risk factors associated with the failure in repositioning the dislocation of the subaxial cervical spine with locked facets by skull traction. A nomogram predictive model was thus constructed and assessed by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve, and decision curve. Internal validation of the training set and external validation set was used to evaluate and validate the model.Results:The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that cervical Ⅰ grade dislocation ( P=0.002), cervical Ⅱ grade dislocation ( P=0.007), low segment affected ( P=0.042), unilateral facet locked ( P=0.027), and the ASIA grading of spinal cord injury ( P=0.008) were the independent risk factors associated with the failure in repositioning the dislocation of the subaxial cervical spine with locked facets by skull traction, based on which the nomogram model with a C-index of 0.88 was constructed to predict the failure in repositioning the dislocation of the subaxial cervical spine with locked facets by skull traction. Analysis of the ROC curve of the training set showed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.88, indicating good accuracy of the nomogram model. Analysis of the calibration curve showed high consistency between the probability of the nomogram model predicting the failure in repositioning the dislocation of the subaxial cervical spine with locked facets by skull traction and the actual probability of traction reposition failure. Analysis of the decision curve showed that application of the nomogram model led to good benefits when the net benefit threshold for the failure in repositioning the dislocation of the subaxial cervical spine with locked facets by skull traction was 0.03 to 0.84. Analysis of the ROC curve of external validation set showed an AUC of 0.79, indicating good accuracy of the nomogram model. The training set showed a C-index of 0.87 after 1,000 internal verifications by the Bootstrap method, indicating good discrimination of the nomogram model. Conclusions:Cervical Ⅰ grade dislocation, cervical Ⅱ grade dislocation, low segment affected, unilateral facet locked, and incomplete spinal cord injury are independent risk factors associated with failure in repositioning the dislocation of the subaxial cervical spine with locked facets by skull traction. A nomogram model has been successfully constructed which can predict the failure in repositioning the dislocation of the subaxial cervical spine with locked facets by skull traction. Validation and evaluation of the nomogram model have demonstrated its good predictive value.

Objective:To evaluate direct and indirect costs for schizophrenia,major depressive disorder(MDD)and bipolar disorder,and to compare their differences of cost composition,and to explore the drivers of the total costs.Methods:A total of 3 175 inpatients with schizophrenia,MDD,and bipolar disorder were recruited.In-patient's self-report total direct of medical costs outpatient and inpatient,out-of-pocket costs,and direct non-medical costs were regarded as direct costs.Productivity loss and other loss caused by damaging properties were defined as indirect costs.The perspectives of this study included individual and societal levels.Multivariate regression analysis was applied for detecting the factors influencing disease costs.Results:The total cost of schizophrenia was higher than those of MDD and bipolar disorder at individual and societal levels.The indirect costs of three mental disorders were higher than the direct costs,and the indirect cost ratio of bipolar disorder was higher than those of schizophre-nia and MDD.Age,gender,working condition and marital status(P＜0.05)were the important drivers of total costs.Conclusion:The economic burden of the three mental disorders is relatively heavy.Schizophrenia has heaviest disease burden,and the productivity loss due to mental disorders is the driving force of the soaring disease cost

Objective To analysis the change of hip joint in healthy infants by ultrasound,and establish the normal reference value of the developmental dysplasia of the hip(DDH). Methods A total of 8 000 healthy infants from 0 to 24 weeks were collected from the Multi-center study of 10 children′s medical centers. Among them,3 855 infants(2 065 females and 1 790 males) with complete data and follow-up were included in this study. All subjects were divided into 6 groups ( ＜4,4～7,8～11,12～15,16～19 and≥20 weeks group). α angle,femoral head length and width,femoral head coverage ratio by acetabulum ( FHC) were measured in the coronal view on the neutral position;distance from pubis to femoral head ( P-H) and distance from ischium to femoral head ( I-H ) were measured in the transverse view on neutral position;distance from femoral head topubis ( H-P) was measured in the posterolateraltransverse view on the flexion position. The results of each group changes with age were analysised. Results ① The α angle of healthy infants from 0 to 20 weeks were increased with age,the difference among the groups were statistically significant( P ＜0.05),but there was no significant difference between 16～19 and ≥20 weeks group( P ＞0.05). ②The femoral head length and width of all age groups were increased with age,the difference among all the groups was statistically significant( all P ＜0.05). ③ FHC from 0 to 20 weeks were increased with age,the difference among the groups were statistically significant( P ＜0.05) except between 16～19 and ≥20 weeks group( P ＞0.05). ④ The P-H and I-H in all age groups showed no statistically significant ( all P＞0.05). ⑤The H-P of all age groups were increased with age,the difference between the groups were statistically significant(all P ＜0.05).Conclusions The development of hip joints have the certain regular developmental pattern in healthy infants less than 5 months of birth and are relatively constant after birth more than 5 months. The ultrasound normal reference value of the hip joints can be used for the early diagnosis of the DDH.

BACKGROUND: : Breast cancer with low-positive human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression has triggered further refinement of evaluation criteria for HER2 expression. We studied the clinicopathological features of early-stage breast cancer with low-positive HER2 expression in China and analyzed prognostic factors. METHODS: : Clinical and pathological data and prognostic information of patients with early-stage breast cancer with low-positive HER2 expression treated by the member units of the Chinese Society of Breast Surgery and Chinese Society of Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, from January 2015 to December 2016 were collected. The prognostic factors of these patients were analyzed. RESULTS: : Twenty-nine hospitals provided valid cases. From 2015 to 2016, a total of 25,096 cases of early-stage breast cancer were treated, 7642 (30.5%) of which had low-positive HER2 expression and were included in the study. After ineligible cases were excluded, 6486 patients were included in the study. The median follow-up time was 57 months (4-76 months). The disease-free survival rate was 92.1% at 5 years, and the overall survival rate was 97.4% at 5 years. At the follow-up, 506 (7.8%) cases of metastasis and 167 (2.6%) deaths were noted. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that tumor stage, lymphvascular invasion, and the Ki67 index were related to recurrence and metastasis (P < 0.05). The recurrence risk prediction model was established using a machine learning model and showed that the area under the receiving operator characteristic curve was 0.815 (95% confidence interval: 0.750-0.880). CONCLUSIONS: : Early-stage breast cancer patients with low-positive HER2 expression account for 30.5% of all patients. Tumor stage, lymphvascular invasion, and the Ki67 index are factors affecting prognosis. The recurrence prediction model for breast cancer with low-positive HER2 expression based on a machine learning model had a good clinical reference value for predicting the recurrence risk at 5 years.
