BACKGROUND:Hip fracture has become one of the main reasons for morbidity, death and heavy medical costs in the elderly. With aging, the incidence of hip fractures in the elderly is increased day by day. OBJECTIVE:To investigate and analyze the incidence and distribution of hip fractures in middle-aged and old population from Changning District of Shanghai, China. METHODS:Medical records of patients with hip fracture ICD-9 CODE (femoral neck fracture and intertrochanteric fracture) admitted from July 2008 to June 2013 were col ected at the Changning District Public Health Information Center and Shanghai Shen Kang Medical Al iance Center. Population distributions of Changning District in 2010 and 2011 were provided by the Disease Control Center of Changning District. Then, the crude morbidity of hip fracture was calculated in terms of different ages and genders. For patients aged over 50 years, every 5 years served as an age group. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The incidence rate of hip fractures in the population aged over 50 years was 197.04/100 000, 88.51/100 000 in male and 304.73/100 000 in female. The annual standardized incidence rate of hip fracture was higher in female than male (P<0.05). The crude incidence rate of hip fracture was increased dramatical y in the population over 70 years, especial y in females. It indicates that the incidence rate of hip fractures is closed related to age, gender and osteoporosis.

Objective: To explore the progression rate of cortid maximal plaque area and the risk of new ischemic cardiovascular disease (ICVD) in a rural cohort in Beijing.
Methods: The PRC-USA collaborative study had been regularly conducted in Shijingshan area in Beijing. The carotid ultrasound examination, ICVD risk factor and acute cardiovascular events follow-up were conducted in those participants. A total of 1479 subjects who received at least 2 carotid ultrasound examinations and had no cardiovascular disease before the second ultrasound were studied. They were divided into 5 groups:①Control group, the participants had no plaque detected by 2 ultrasounds; ② New plaque group, new plaque was found at the second ultrasound examination; ③ Plaque regression group; ④ Plaque stabilized group and ⑤ Plaque progression group. The hazard ratio (HR) between the progression rate of corotid maximal plaque area and new ICVD events was estimated by Cox proportional hazard regression analysis .
Results: Compared with Control group, the HR for new ICVD events were higher in groups②,③,④and⑤at 3.5, 5.7, 6.2 and 7.3 respectively, all P<0.05. The increasing trend of HRs remained signiifcant with the adjusted age and gender, P<0.001.
Conclusion: The progression rate of maximal corot id plaque area rate could predict the risk of new ICVD events in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the effect of acupuncture on gap junction protein Cx43 expression in the hippocampal region in ischemia/reperfusion rats.Methods Wistar rats were randomized into normal, model, non-point acupuncture and acupuncture groups. A rat model of focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion was made by modified middle cerebral artery thread occlusion. The model, non-point acupuncture and acupuncture groups were separately divide into four subgroups: 30, 60, 180 and 360 min ischemia/reperfusion, 10 rats each. The middle and lateral lines of vertex were given electroacupuncture in the acupuncture group of rats. A subcostal fixed point 10 mm above the iliac crest on the affect side was selected as an acupuncture point in the non-point acupuncture group. The model group was not treated. Cx43 protein expression was determined by an immunohistochemical method.Results There was a statistically significant difference in the behavior disorder (Bederson’s) score between the acupuncture group and the non-point acupuncture or model group after different times of cerebral ischemia/ reperfusion (P<0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in hippocampal Cx43 content between model, acupuncture or non-point acupuncture group and the normal group and between the acupuncture group and the model or non-point acupuncture group after different times of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (P<0.05).Conclusions Acupuncture can inhibit the overexpression of Cx43, intervene in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury and produce a neuroprotective effect in ischemic brain injury.

Abstract In recent years, the overall incidence of scoliosis in children and adolescents in China is on the rise, and it has become the third largest "killer" affecting the health of children and adolescents in China after obesity and myopia. The dysfunction caused by spinal deformity has no obvious pathological manifestations or clinical symptoms in children and adolescents (except for severe scoliosis). It is easy to be ignored in the early stage, but if it is not intervened in time, this will cause serious damage to the long term prognosis and quality of life of the patients. Therefore, through early scoliosis screening, we can effectively monitor the spinal health status of children and adolescents in China, ensure timely diagnosis of the disease, timely intervention (brace and other conservative treatment), and play the role of early prevention. Avoid further deterioration of scoliosis and surgical intervention. This article will focus on the research progress of screening and conservative treatment of scoliosis.

We studied medium alkalinization in Salvia miltiorrhiza suspension cultures treated with salicylic acid and the effect of Ca2+ in this process through application of calcium channel antagonists (Verapamil, LaCl3, LiCl, 2-APB) and ionophore A23187. The results show that salicylic acid could induce significant medium alkalinization in S. miltiorrhiza culture. Verapamil and LaCl3 or LiCl and 2-APB, two different groups of calcium channel antagonist, significantly inhibited the medium alkalinization induced by salicylic acid. However, the suppression effect of verapamil or LaCl3 on medium alkalinization induced by salicylic acid was higher than that of LiCl or 2-APB. When two types of calcium channel inhibitor (LaCl3 and 2-APB) were used together, the medium alkalinization induced by salicylic acid was completely suppressed and even reduced the pH in medium. On the other hand, A23187 could promote the medium alkalinization. Based on the results above, we speculated that salicylic acid could induce significant medium alkalinization in S. miltiorrhiza culture, depending on the calcium from both extracell and intracell. Moreover, calcium from extracell plays a more dominant role in this process. Reveal of relationship in this research between Ca2+ and medium alkalinization can provide theory evidence for mechanism of the plant secondary metabolism.
