A method for simultaneous determination of PCDDs, dl-PCBs, BFRs and PBDD/Fs in flue gas from stationary source was developed. The sample was extracted by Soxhlet apparatus with toluene, and followed by purification through sulfuric acid partition and multi-layer silica gel column separation. The target compounds were then all separated by passing through the active carbon-dispersed silica gel column and reversal eluting. Gas chromatography coupled with a thermostable capillary column ( short length, thin stationary phase film) was operated at pulse injection mode. High resolution mass spectrometry set at low-electron-energy ionization was used for quantification. The high- and low-brominated compounds were determined simultaneously. The detection limits of this method were 0. 081-1. 2 pg for PCDD/Fs, 0. 10-0. 32 pg for dl-PCBs, 0. 14-12 pg for PBDEs, 0. 26-16 pg for new BFRs, 0. 44-3. 6 pg for tetra- to hepta-BDD/Fs and 8. 2-12 pg for OBDD/F. Recoveries ( RSDs) in spiked flue gas samples were 88%-115%(2. 9%-6. 1%) for PCDD/Fs, 84%-118% (3. 2%-10%) for dl-PCBs, 71%-135% (2. 1%-18%) for PBDEs, 71%-114% (2. 9%-7. 4%) for new BFRs, 83%-127% (5. 2%-10%) for tetra-to hepta-BDD/Fs and 52%-149% ( 23%-24%) for OBDD/F. All quality control data fell within the acceptable range specified in analysis standards for flue gas.

Objective:To evaluate the curative effect of 3D printing titanium trabecular metal (TTM) acetabular cups in revision of total hip arthroplasty (THA).Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted on the clinical data of 24 patients (25 hips) undergoing THA revision in Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from May 2016 to September 2019. There were 10 males and 14 females,aged 43-78 years [(63.0 ± 11.4) years]. According to Paprosky classification,5 patients(5 hips) were classified as type Ⅰ,9 patients (10 hips) as type ⅡA,5 patients (5 hips) as type ⅡB,1 patient (1 hip) as type ⅡC and 4 patients (4 hips) as type ⅢC. All patients used 3D printing TTM cups. Seven patients (7 hips) were combined with 3D printing TTM pads,and 3 patients (3 hips) were combined with structural bone grafts. The visual analogue scale (VAS),Harris score and quality of life Health Survey Scale (SF-36) score were evaluated before operation,3 months after operation,12 months after operation and at the last follow-up. The X-ray film of hip joint was performed to evaluate the upward movement distance of hip center of rotation (HCOR),limb-length discrepancy (LLD) before operation,1 day after operation and at the last follow-up. The position of cups and bone ingrowth were evaluated at the last follow-up. The postoperative complications were observed.Results:All patients were followed up for 14-54 months [(34.2 ± 9.3)months]. The VAS was (4.0 ± 0.7)points,(2.3 ± 0.8)points and (0.9 ± 0.2)points at postoperative 3 months,12 months and the last follow-up,significantly lower than that preoperatively [(6.1 ± 1.0)points] ( P < 0.05). A statistically significant difference was found in the pairwise comparisons of postoperative VAS at postoperative 3 months,12 months and the last follow-up( P < 0.05). The Harris score was (64.6 ± 5.3)points,(80.5 ± 3.7)points,and (90.3 ± 3.6)points at postoperative 3 months,12 months and the last follow-up,significantly higher than that preoperatively [(38.8 ± 6.2)points] ( P < 0.05). A statistically significant difference was found in the pairwise comparisons of postoperative Harris score at postoperative 3 months,12 months and the last follow-up( P < 0.05). The SF-36 score was (556.3 ± 21.9)points,(711.6 ± 15.9)points and (752.8 ± 23.0)points at postoperative 3 months,12 months and the last follow-up,significantly higher than that preoperatively [(326.3 ± 30.7)points] ( P < 0.05). A statistically significant difference was found in the pairwise comparisons of postoperative SF-36 score at postoperative 3 months,12 months and the last follow-up( P < 0.05). The upward movement distance of HCOR was (13.5 ± 2.6)mm and (13.6 ± 2.6)mm on the first day after operation and at the last follow-up,significantly lower than that preoperatively [(34.1 ± 3.5)mm] ( P < 0.05). The LLD was (6.2 ± 1.8)mm and (5.3 ± 1.5)mm on the first day after operation and at the last follow-up,significantly lower than that preoperatively [(31.6 ± 5.2)mm] ( P < 0.05). All the cups were stable. Good bone ingrowth was found in 23 hips. There was no postoperative complication except for one patient with poor wound healing. Conclusion:For THA revision,the use of 3D printing TTM cups can effectively relieve pain,improve hip function,provide satisfactory biological fixation and and reduce complications.

Objective To probe into the total number and development status of respiratory physicians in China, and to analyze existing problems, for reference in making strategy and policy decisions in professional development of respiratory physicians in the country. Methods The basic information of China′s healthcare institutions and healthcare manpower in 2015 were provided by the Statistics Center of the National Health Commission. The number of respiratory specialists and their profile, drawn from such basic information, were subject to descriptive statistics. Results In 2015, there were 2.729 million medical practitioners ( including assistant doctors ) nationwide, 30.3 thousand among whom being respiratory physicians, accounting for 1.11% of the total. Among these respiratory physicians, practicing respiratory physicians account for 87.1% , respiratory physicians with a master degree and above account for only 19.7% , respiratory physicians with over 10 years of working experience account for 65.8% , respiratory physicians with senior titles account for only 21.4% , and 89.4% of the respiratory physicians work in general hospitals. Conclusions By the criteria of specializing in respiratory specialty over five years and being attending or above, the number approximates 14. 6 thousand nationwide. If practicing ( assistant) physicians specializing in respiratory specialty are also included, the number may hit 30. 3 thousand. Such a number, compared with other specialties, may be sufficient, yet their competence is far from satisfactory. Therefore it is imperative to build a standardized pulmonary medicine fellowship training system for their competence improvement.
