Objective To discuss the related factors of early pathological fracture after curettage of benign bone tumors in femoral shaft.Methods The clinical data of 47 patients with benign bone tumors in femoral shaft,treated by curettage with bone graft via the vastus lateralis approach from March 2004 to March 2011,were retrospectively analyzed.Thirteen patients of them presented with early pathological fracture after the curettage.In fracture group,there were 13 cases,11 males and 2 females,and the time from finishing curettage to fracture occurring ranged from 21 to 36 days.In non-fracture group,there were 34 cases,23 males and 11 females.The following data of fracture group and non-fracture group were compared and analyzed,such as specific value of absolute width of tumor and transverse diameter of bone shaft,specific value of defect width of bone window and sagittal diameter of bone shaft,defect length-width ratio of bone window,defect morphology of bone window,classification of bone tumor,violence of causing injury and compliance to medical advice.Results The average defect length-width ratio of bone window in fracture group was 3.72±3.58,in non-fracture group was 2.67±6.35.For classification of tumor,in fracture group 1 case was in incubation period,6 in active period,6 in invasion period; in non fracture group 21 cases were in incubation period,10 in active period,and 3 in invasion period.Four cases in fracture group had poor compliance to medical advice,and 9 in non-fracture group had good compliance.Between two groups,there were no statistical differences in specific value of absolute width of tumor and transverse diameter of bone shaft,specific value of defect width of bone window and sagittal diameter of bone shaft,and defect morphology of bone window.Conclusion When defect length-width ratio of bone window is larger than 4,the classification of tumor causes expanded incisal edge,and the cortical bone was damaged extensively,there are more possibilities for pathological fracture.

Objective Derived air concentration of Type F uranium compounds are calculated respectively in order to provide reference for the management and evaluation of occupational hazard factors in workplace.Methods The air concentrations in the workplace of Type F uranium compounds were derived respectively through numerical simulationn,from individual dose limits,acute poisoning and chronic chemical damage threshold.Results Under normal operation conditions,the concentration of 5 μg /m3 for Type F uranium compounds in air of workplace can meet the requirements of radiation and chemical hazard control.Open inhalation of 1.1 mg/m3 is acceptable in a short time.Conclusions It is feasible to establish a permissible concentration limit in workplace for Type F uranium compounds.

Objective To explore the applicable conditions for using urine uranium monitoring data to assess personal internal doses with a view to providing references for the occupational health management and the urine uranium monitoring in nuclear industry sector.Methods The urine uranium levels were calculated, through simulation calculation set at 1 mSv effective dose arising from either acute or chronic ingestion of uranium compounds.The results were compared with the monitoring values of workers without occupational exposure history.The feasibility of urine uranium monitoring for dose assessment of internal radiation exposure was discussed.Results For special monitoring of acute ingestion, liquid fluorimetry can meet monitoring requirements of Type F uranium compound, Type M low enriched uranium and Type S naturally occurring uranium.For routine monitoring, only Type F low enriched uranium and Type M naturally occurring uranium can be detected at shorter monitoring intervals, But it was not suitable for Type S uranium compounds.Conclusions Background levels and detection limits should be considered when urine uranium is measured for the purpose of assessment or control of exposure to uranium and the interpretation of the results.

Objective To explore the applicable conditions for using urine plutonium monitoring data to assess personal internal doses,in order to provide references for the occupational health management and the urine plutonium monitoring in nuclear sector.Methods Using some plutonium mixtures from DOE nuclear facilities,as an example,the urine plutonium levels were estimated through simulation calculation at 1 mSv effective dose arising from either acute or chronic inhalation of plutonium compounds,respectively.The results were compared with the typical detection limit of radiochemical separation and α-spectrometry.The feasibility of urine plutonium monitoring for dose assessment of internal radiation exposure was discussed.Results Only for type M plutonium compunds,1 mSv detection limit can be achieved using radiochemical separation and α-spectrometry within 10 d after inhalation.Conclusions Before the monitoring plan of urine plutonium is made,detection limits of monitoring method should be considered.Internal dose could be accessed using workplace air monitoring and working hours when necessary.

Objective:This study aims to reveal the special immune infiltrating environment and possible immune escape mechanism of giant cell tumor of bone through single-cell sequencing data.Methods:The fresh samples obtained from 4 patients with primary giant cell tumor of bone from January 2018 to December 2021 were collected, and single-cell transcriptome sequencing was performed on the 10X platform to explore the characteristics and immune environment of giant cell tumor of bone by using t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding ( t-SNE). The main cell types and signal pathways of immune cell regulation and function in giant cell tumor of bone were observed by cell communication analysis. Results:Cell clustering, the definition of basic cell types, the classification of immune cells, and the mutual regulatory relationship between cell types were analyzed for 35 643 single-cell data from 4 giant cell tumor samples of bone. It was found that giant cell tumor of bone was composed of 9 basic cell types, in which the immune cells were mainly CD8 + T cells (51%) and the non-immune cells were mainly fibroblast like spindle stromal cells (74%). The immune infiltration of giant cell tumor of bone is dominated by cytotoxic CD8 + T cells and lacks exhausted CD8 + T cells. CD4 + T cells are characterized by high expression of immune checkpoint genes CTLA4 and TIGIT. In giant cell tumor of bone, immune cells mainly act on multinucleated osteoclast like giant cells through PARs and CCL signaling pathways, but not stromal cells. Conclusion:This study defined the main cell types of giant cell tumor of bone through single cell sequencing data, and further revealed the composition characteristics of its immune infiltration, and found that the target of its immune cells was mainly multinuclear osteoclast like giant cells, which provided effective information for further understanding the occurrence and development of giant cell tumor of bone.

Tinosporae Radix， as a traditional Chinese medicinal herb， is the dried root tuber of Tinospora sagittata or T. capillipes. It was first recorded in the Compendium of Materia Medica Supplement in the Qing Dynasty and included in the previous edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Tinosporae Radix is excavated in autumn and winter and used after removing fibrous roots， washing， and drying. It is indicated for sore throat， carbuncle boils poison， waist and abdominal pain， and various heat syndromes and is commonly used to treat chronic inflammation. Its efficacy is significantly known as “broad-spectrum antibiotics in Zhuang medicine”. Tinosporae Radix is a traditional Chinese medicinal herb often taken by Zhuang and Yao nationalities in Guangxi province and has a wide range of application and development values and research significance. Modern studies have shown that Tinosporae Radix contains diterpenoids， alkaloids， sterols， anthraquinones， glycosides， fatty acids， volatile oils， and other compounds， which have many pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory and analgesic， antibacterial and antibacterial， antioxidant， anti-diabetic， and anti-tumor and anti-cancer effects， and it has achieved good efficacy in inhibiting inflammation and treating sore throat and other diseases. In recent years， there have been many research reports on the status， chemical constituents， pharmacological action， clinical application， and quality evaluation of Tinosporae Radix resources， but there is no systematic review and introduction at present.

Objective To establish simple screening models for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in the adult Blang population. Methods Based on the survey data of metabolic diseases in the Blang people aged 18 years or above in 2017, 2993 respondents were stratified by sex and age (at an interval of 5 years) and then randomly divided into modeling group with 1497 respondents and validation group with 1496 respondents. Related information was collected, including demographic data, smoking, drinking, family history of diseases and personal medical history, body height, body weight, waist circumference, and blood pressure, and related markers were measured, including fasting plasma glucose, 2-hour postprandial plasma glucose or blood glucose at 2 hours after glucose loading, triglyceride, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. Logistic regression analysis was used to establish the screening model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio, negative likelihood ratio, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value were used to evaluate the screening performance of established models versus existing models in the study population, and the DeLong method was used for comparison of AUC. Results Three screening models for NAFLD were established based on physical and biochemical measurements, i.e., simple noninvasive model 1 (age, body mass index, and waist circumference), noninvasive model 2 with the addition of blood pressure, and model 3 with the combination of hematological parameters (diabetes and ALT/AST). In the modeling group, the three models had an AUC of 0.881 (95% confidence interval [ CI ]: 0.864-0.897), 0.892 (95% CI : 0.875-0.907), and 0.894 (95% CI : 0.877-0.909), respectively, and there was a significant difference between model 1 and models 2/3 ( P =0.004 0 and P < 0.001); in the validation group, the three models had an AUC of 0.891 (95% CI : 0.874-0.906), 0.892 (95% CI : 0.875-0.907), and 0.893 (95% CI : 0.876-0.908), respectively, and there was no significant difference between the three groups ( P > 0.05). Based on the overall consideration of screening performance, invasiveness, and cost, the simple noninvasive model 1 was considered the optimal screening model for NAFLD in this population. Model 1 had the highest Youden index at the cut-off value of 5 points, and when the score of ≥5 points was selected as the criteria for NAFLD, the model had a sensitivity of 86.5%, a specificity of 79.7%, a positive predictive value of 50.3%, and a negative predictive value of 96.1% in the modeling group and a sensitivity of 85.6%, a specificity of 80.6%, a positive predictive value of 51.7%, and a negative predictive value of 95.8% in the validation group. Conclusion The NAFLD screening models established for the adult Blang population based on age and obesity indicators have relatively higher sensitivity, specificity, and negative predictive value, and this tool is of important practical significance for the intervention of NAFLD and its closely related metabolic diseases in this population.
