Objective:To evaluate the value of serum protein electrophoresis in the diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after hip and knee arthroplasty.Methods:The data of 171 patients who underwent one side hip or knee revision surgery in the affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from August 2013 to June 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the reasons for revision, 55 patients in PJI group, 29 males and 26 females, aged 67.38±9.60 years, 26 hips and 29 knees, were classified as Tsukayama type IV; Aseptic loosening (AL) group consisted of 116 patients, 67 males and 49 females, aged 69.69±9.20 years, 97 hips and 19 knees .The ratios of C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), D-dimer, fibrinogen, serum total protein, serum albumin, serum globulin and serum protein electrophoresis bands in the two groups were statistically analyzed. The sensitivity and specificity of each index were calculated according to the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and the diagnostic value was compared according to the area under the curve (AUC).Results:There was no significant difference in age, sex or body mass index (BMI) between PJI group and AL group ( P>0.05), but there was significant difference in joint type with 26 hips and 29 knees in PJI group, 97 hips and 19 knees in AL group (χ 2=24.41, P<0.001). The proportion of α1 globulin band was 6.40% (5.30%, 8.10%) in PJI group, which increased significantly compared to 4.20% (3.90%, 4.80%) in AL group ( H=453.50, P<0.001). Albumin band was 49.00% (44.00%, 52.20%) in PJI group, which decreased significantly compared to 54.35% (51.25%, 56.70%) in AL group ( H=4 954.00, P<0.001). The AUC of CRP, ESR, D-dimer, fibrinogen, albumin band and α1 globulin band were 0.87[95% CI (0.80, 0.93)], 0.88[95% CI (0.82, 0.94)], 0.67[95% CI (0.58, 0.76)], 0.87[95% CI (0.82, 0.93)], 0.78[95% CI (0.70, 0.85)] and 0.87[95% CI (0.81, 0.93)], respectively. Conclusion:Albumin bands and α1 globulin bands in serum protein electrophoresis had high diagnostic value for PJI, and the accuracy of α1 globulin bands was as good as that of routine inflammatory markers such as CRP and ESR.

Objective To investigate the influences of culture conditions on the in vitro induction and maturation of dendritic cells by using different combinations of cytokines. -ethods Mouse bone mar-row cells were isolated and cultured in media containing varying combinations of cytokines, including granu-locyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interleukin-4 (IL-4) and fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand (Flt3L). After cultured at 37℃ for seven days, the attached bone marrow cells were collected and stained by fluorescence-labeled monoclonal antibodies (McAb) against CD11c, MHCⅡ and CD86 for flow cytometry analysis. In the parallel group, LPS was added on day 5 to a final concentration of 1μg/ml for DC maturation analysis by flow cytometry. Results In group Flt3L (20 ng/ml)/GM-CSF (20 ng/ml)/IL-4 (10 ng/ml), 90% of bone marrow cells were CD11c-positive. Flt3L (100 ng/ml) could induce 88% of bone marrow cells to express CD11c. Bone marrow cells positive for MHCⅡ accounted for 35. 4% and 36. 1% in group Flt3L/GM-CSF/IL-4 and group Flt3L/GM-CSF, where both Flt3L and GM-CSF were used at a concentration of 20 ng/ml. After LPS stimulation, the positive rates of MHCⅡ in group Flt3L/GM-CSF/IL-4 and group Flt3L/GM-CSF were 58. 1% and 59. 6%, which increased by 22. 7% and 23. 5%, re-spectively. The percentages of CD86-positive bone marrow cells were 7. 1% and 5. 5% in group Flt3L/GM-CSF/IL-4 and group Flt3L/GM-CSF. Bone marrow cells positive for CD86 grew by 7. 1% and 6. 2% in group Flt3L (20 ng/ml) and group GM-CSF/IL-4 after LPS stimulation. Conclusions Flt3L and GM-CSF probably dominated the differentiation and maturation of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells with a synergis-tic effect. Combined usage of Flt3L and GM-CSF at the concentration of 20 ng/ml would be an optimal proto-col for DC research.

Objective:
To investigate the effect and underlying mechanisms of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitor SB203580 on fetal lung injury in a rat model of acute pancreatitis in late pregnancy.
Methods:
Twenty-four pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats in last gestation were randomly(random number) divided into the SO group, APILP group, and SB203580 treatment (SB) group. APILP model was induced by retrograde injection of 5% sodium taurocholate into the biliary-pancreatic duct. SB203580 administration (10 mg/kg body weight, intraperitoneal injection) was performed 0.5 h before surgery. All the rats in the SO and APILP groups received intraperitoneal injection of equivoluminal solvent at the same time point. Animals were sacrificed at 12 h after the induction of APILP, then the blood and tissue samples were harvested. Serum levels of AMY and TNF-α were analyzed. Histopathological changes of maternal pancreas and fetal lung were observed and evaluated. The expression and location of NF-κB in fetal lungs were detected by immunohistochemistry and MPO expression in fetal lungs was examined by immunofluorescence. The expression of p-p38MAPK, p38MAPK, TNF-α and ICAM-1 was determined by Western blot. One-way ANOVA and Tukey's multiple comparison tests were used for statistical analysis.
Results:
The levels of AMY and TNF-α in maternal serum were markedly increased after APILP [(7 871.3±623.5)

During coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic, the treatment of severe trauma has been impacted. The Consensus on emergency surgery and infection prevention and control for severe trauma patients with 2019 novel corona virus pneumonia was published online on February 12, 2020, providing a strong guidance for the emergency treatment of severe trauma and the self-protection of medical staffs in the early stage of the epidemic. With the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council renaming "novel coronavirus pneumonia" to "novel coronavirus infection" and the infection being managed with measures against class B infectious diseases since January 8, 2023, the consensus published in 2020 is no longer applicable to the emergency treatment of severe trauma in the new stage of epidemic prevention and control. In this context, led by the Chinese Traumatology Association, Chinese Trauma Surgeon Association, Trauma Medicine Branch of Chinese International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Traumatology, the Chinese expert consensus on emergency surgery for severe trauma and infection prevention during coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic ( version 2023) is formulated to ensure the effectiveness and safety in the treatment of severe trauma in the new stage. Based on the policy of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council and by using evidence-based medical evidence as well as Delphi expert consultation and voting, 16 recommendations are put forward from the four aspects of the related definitions, infection prevention, preoperative assessment and preparation, emergency operation and postoperative management, hoping to provide a reference for severe trauma care in the new stage of the epidemic prevention and control.
