The antigen of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) virus in the infected suckling mouse brains was purified by a combined method—Protamin sulfate sedimentation and sucrose cushion uhracentrifugation. The Purified antigen was labeled with horseradish peroxidase (HRP). A kind of IgM antibody capture ELISA that used HRP—labeled antigen of HFRS Virus, i.e, direct ELISA, was successfully established for the detection of specific IgM antibody in sera from patients with HFRS. Compared with IgM antibody capture ELISA that used HRP—labeled IgG antibody to HFRS virus ,direct ELISA was similar in sensitivity to it,but direct ELISA could completely avoid the interference caused by rheumatoid factor (RF) as well as could reduce one step immune reaction. 87 serum samples from patients with HFRS(diagnosed clinically) in various stages, including 37 from Patients with HFRS in early stage(from 1 to 5 days after the onset of HFRS)were detected by direct ELISA . The positive rates of specific IgM antibody were 96.5% and 91.8%, respectively. We think that direct ELISA that uses HRP—labeled antigen provides a more specific,simpler and faster method for early di—agnosis of HFRS.

Objective To evaluate the diabetes self-management program based on Chinese local patients in Nanjing community. Methods From April 2014 to June 2014, diabetes patients were recruited through health records system screening in the community health service centers, letter invitation, poster announcements at communities, and telephone notification. A total of 53 self-management groups were established. Nanjing diabetes self-management program included six 1-1.5 hours sessions scheduled on consecutive weeks, based on the blueprint of Shanghai Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP) developed at Stanford University. Baseline and three-month later interviews were conducted respectively. Results A total of 636 patients were recruited and agreed to enter CDSMP; 603 completed the 6-session activities, with the response rate being 94.8%. Compared to baseline, nine of the patients' the awareness rate of diabetes-related knowledge, six of self-management behaviors, the scores of quality of life in physical component summary [(47.51 ± 9.47) vs. (49.10 ± 8.27) points, t=6.170, P=0.000] and mental component summary [(47.09±11.95) vs. (49.13±10.74) points, t=5.157, P=0.000] were all higher after three months (all P values<0.05). Three months after implementation, the level of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting plasma glucose and total cholesterol decreased respectively by (1.42±0.52) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), (0.98 ± 0.34) mmHg, (0.66 ± 0.16) mmol/L, (0.15 ± 0.56) mmol/L,the differences were statistically significant (tpaired values were 3.935, 2.030, 4.889, 4.899, all P values<0.05). Conclusion The diabetes self-management program based on Chinese local patients for Nanjing may improve patients' awareness rate of diabetes-related knowledge, self-management behavior, the quality of life, and health status. CDSMP could be applied effectively in Nanjing.

Objective To investigate the relationship between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) activity and choroidal thickness,and evaluate the utility of a choroidal thickness measurement in assessing IBD activity.Methods A total of 100 eyes of 50 patients of IBD with different disease activity,including 23 patients of ulcerative colitis,27 patients of Crohn's disease (CD).Ninety-six eyes of 48 healthy volunteers were recruited as control group.Choroidal thickness was measured using enhanced depth imaging(EDI)optical coherence tomography.Results Compared with the subfoveal choroidal thickness (294.37 ± 35.04) μm in healthy volunteers,the subfoveal choroidal thickness (349.28 ± 76.57) μm in UC patients with severe disease activity,the subfoveal choroidal thickness (326.71 ± 59.71) μm and (354.24 ± 66.34) μm,respectively,in CD patients with moderate and severe disease activity were found to be increased significantly (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Choroidal thickness should be considered as a potential marker to assess the disease activity in patients with IBD,especially in patients with CD.

Objective To investigate the choice of methods and time on the treatment of Gustilo type Ⅲ B and type ⅢC open tibia fractures by bone fixation and tissue flap repairing.Methods The clinic data of 136 cases of Gustilo Ⅲ B and Ⅲ C open tibia fractures were retrospectively studied.There were 102 males and 34 females,with average age of 34 years(range 14 to 68 years).Ninety-eight cases were classified as Gustilo type Ⅲ B and 38 cases were type Ⅲ C in degree.In all cases,one hundred and thirteen were treated with onestage external fixation,ninteen cases were treated with secondary bone fixation.Sixty-seven cases of all wounds were repaired by one-stage vascular pedicle skin flap.Seven wounds were repaired by one-stage free flaps with vascular anastomosis.Sixty-two cases were secondary repaired by different flaps after defect tissue under VSD (vacuum-sealing-drainage) treatment by 1 to several weeks,which contains 9 free skin graft,eleven muscle flaps based on posterior tibial artery perforator,thirteen flaps based on fibial artery perforator,fourteen gastrocnemius falps and 15 cross-leg flaps.Results Wound of all cases were healed wholly.Primary union occurred in 121 cases,twelve,cases healed after bone grafting for segmental bone defect.Three cases with delayed union healed after reoperation for infection that caused osteomyelitis and sinus tract.The period of bone healing was form 5 to 12 months.Conclusion The treatment of Gustilo Ⅲ B and Ⅲ C open tibia fractures by onestage or secondary bone fixation and tissue flap repairing get their advantages and disadvantages,but one-stage bone fixation and tissue flap repairing was better where appropriate.

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of treating long bone defect with vascularized fibular graft.Methods From January,2008 to January,2015,31 cases of long bone defect were treated with vascularized fibula composite or not composite tissue flap graft.The length of transplanted fibula was 9-20 cm,and the flap area was 5 cm×3 cm to 21 cm×14 cm.All patients were followed up regularly.Limb function was assessed 12 months after surgery.Results Thirty-one cases of vascularized fibular flap survived after surgery.Thirty patients were followed up for 1.5 to 6 years (average,2.5 years).One patient was lost to follow-up.The bone defects of patients followed up were healed.There was one case fracture occurred for trauma,was treated with plaster cast for 6 months and healed.The transplanted fibular thickened for 1.3 to 2.5 years(average,1.6 years).Conclusion Vascularized fibular graft can reconstruct long bone defect for single use and shorten the duration of treatment with a good limb function.For cases combined soft tissue defect,vascularized fibula composite tissue flap can be applied to repair at the meantime.

Objective:To investigate the joint associations of smoking and insufficient physical activity with hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia in male adults.Methods:Based on the data from the 2017 Nanjing Chronic Diseases Risk Factors Surveillance Program, 61 098 Nanjing residents aged 18 and older was randomly recruited from 12 districts, using the multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method. Information about smoking behaviors, physical activity and chronic disease-related indicators within the first 12 months before the survey was obtained through questionnaires.Results:Among the 29 848 valid male samples, the proportions of non-smokers, current smokers and ex-smokers were 59.6%, 37.2% and 3.2%, and the proportions of those who had physically active<600 MET-min/w (insufficient physically active) and ≥600 MET-min/w (adequate physically active) were 18.8% and 82.2%, respectively. In non-smokers, current smokers and ex-smokers, the prevalence of hypertension was 24.7%, 34.0% and 43.8%, and the prevalence of diabetes was 8.8%, 12.3% and 16.5%, and the prevalence of dyslipidemia was 26.8%, 36.1% and 41.9%, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that current smokers had a higher risk of hypertension ( OR=1.164, 95% CI: 1.086-1.248), diabetes ( OR=1.324, 95% CI: 1.207-1.452), and dyslipidemia ( OR=1.291, 95% CI: 1.216-1.371) than non-smokers in male adults. Compared with people who had adequate physical activity, someone with insufficient physical activity had higher hypertension ( OR=1.452, 95% CI: 1.331-1.583), diabetes ( OR=1.170, 95% CI: 1.041-1.315) and dyslipidemia ( OR=1.245, 95% CI: 1.158-1.338). And current smokers with insufficient physical activity had the highest risk of hypertension ( OR=1.749, 95% CI: 1.550-1.974), diabetes ( OR=1.363, 95% CI: 1.165-1.595), and dyslipidemia ( OR=1.614, 95% CI: 1.461-1.782) in male adults. Conclusions:Smoking and insufficient physical activity are risk factors for hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. People who is characterized by smoking together with insufficient physical activity presents with increased risk on developing hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia.

Objective To explore the effect of the use of flap transplantation combined with Masquelet tech-nique in the repair of long bone accompanied with soft tissue defect. Methods The retrospective study includes 16 cases of bone defects over 6.0 cm combined with soft tissue defect from March,2013 to March,2016,13 males and 3 females, of which the ages range from 16 to 65 years. The length of bone defect ranged from 6.0 to 12.0 cm, with an average of 8.5 cm,while the wound defect ranged from 5.2 cm×3.5 cm to 16.0 cm×7.5 cm. There were 8 cases out of 16 involve an infection:3 cases of Staphylococcus aureus(including 1 MRSA),2 cases of Staphylococcus epidermidis, 2 cases of Enterobacter cloacae, and 1 case of Acinetobacter baumannii. The 1 stage surgery in all patients admitted to hospital after complete debridement and external fixation, the clean wounds with bone defect received antibiotic-impregnated bone cement filling operation and a flap transplantation or transposition directly after the debridement, but the infected wounds received vacuum sealing drainage treatment firstly, associated with adequate use of antibi-otics for 1-2 weeks and then the bone cement filling and flap transplantation with infection totally controlled.After 8-12 weeks, we conducted the secondary internal fixation surgery replacing antibiotic-impregnated bone cement with autogenic cancellous bone, vancomycin artificial bone as well as rhBMP-2. All the cases were followed for 6 to 18 months. Results All patients with primary surgery are effectively controlled after 1-4 weeks of anti-infection treat-ment exclusive of the case with MRSA.As the condition of the patient with MRSA relapse,we changed to convention-al treatment: placed a continuous irrigation and suction equipment instead of the bone cement filling, the wound healed completely without fistula formation of osteomyelitis in 6 months after the treatment of Ilizarov technique. All transplantation and transposition flaps survived. As for those who received a secondary bone graft operation, all achieved a bony union in a period of 4-6 months. Conclusion The combination of flap transplantation and Masquelet technique is an effective method to repair limb long bone and soft tissue defect currently.

Objective To compare internal fixation with hallow compression screws combined vascularized bone graft(observation group) with only three hallow compression screws(control group) in young patients' Garden III and IV femoral neck fractures. Methods The patients with femoral neck fracture were treated from January, 2004 to December, 2013 were retrospectively reviewed. A total of 417 displaced femoral neck fractures in young and mid-dle-aged patients were long term followed-up. One hundred and thirty-seven patients were underwent open reduction and internal fixation with 3 hallow compression screws combined with a greater trochanter bone graft supported by the profound branch of medial circumflex femoral artery;280 patients were treated by closed reduction with 3 hallow com-pression screws. Results Patients had been followed-up for 5-12 years. At the last follow-up point, the Harris score of flap in observation group(93.68±5.12) were higher than that in control group(92.53±6.12), while it was no sta-tistical difference(P>0.05). It was 0.7％of nonunion incidence rate in the observation group, and incidence of avascular necrosis of femoral head was 6.6％, and incidence of femoral neck shortening was 8.8％. In the control group, inci-dence of avascular necrosis of femoral head was 14.6％, nonunion incidence rate was 4.6％, and incidence of femoral neck shortening was 22.5％. The differences between two groups was statistically significance( P<0.05). Conclusion The open reduction and internal fixation which is hallow compression screws in combination with a greater trochanter bone graft supported by the profound branch of medial circumflex femoral artery is an optimal treatment for young adults with Garden III and IV femoral neck fractures.

Objective:To analysis and compare the burden of ischemic heart disease (IHD) attributable to metabolic risks in population aged 25 years and older in 2011 and 2017 in Nanjing.Methods:The data were extracted from the Nanjing Chronic Disease and Risk Factor Surveillance (2011 and 2017), the Nanjing Mortality Surveillance (2011 and 2017) and the 2016 Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD). Using GBD′s Comparative Risk Assessment Theory, the attribution burden was estimated by comparing the observed health outcomes with the health outcomes that may be observed when exposed to counterfactual levels. Based on population attributable fractions, the deaths and life expectancy losses of ischemic heart disease due to high systolic blood pressure (SBP), high fasting plasma glucose (FPG), high total cholesterol (TC), high body mass index (BMI) and combination of four risks were estimated in 2011 and 2017. The average population structure of the world′s population from 2000 to 2025 wasusedas the standard population for standardization.Results:The number of IHD deaths attributable to four metabolic risks combination was 3 204, andwhich resulted in a loss of life expectancy of 0.90 years in 2017. High SBP appeared as the major cause of IHD deaths and Years of Life Lost (YLL). In 2017, the world standardized mortality rate (25.60×10 －5, 19.94×10 －5 and 6.83×10 －5) and the standardized YLL rate (389.31×10 －5, 335.16×10 －5, 134.60×10 －5) of the population due to high systolic blood pressure, high total cholesterol and high body mass index were significantly lower than those in 2011 (31.75×10 －5, 26.74×10 －5, 7.45×10 －5 and 469.07×10 －5, 463.70×10 －5, 142.66×10 －5); the world standardized rate and the standardized YLL rate due to high blood sugar (11.90×10 －5 and 174.61×10 －5) were significantly higher than those in 2011 (9.67×10 －5 and 150.61×10 －5) (all P<0.05). Males appeared to have higher standardized rate of YLL of IHD deaths than females, due to having metabolism risks( P<0.05). Conclusion:Metabolic exposures especially high SBP are the important risk factors whichleadto IHD deaths in Nanjing.

Objective:To summarize the preliminary experience in ward management, medical protection, standardised diagnosis and treatment procedures in trauma microsurgery during the outbreak of COVID-19.Methods:Taking an example from the Department of Trauma and Microsurgery at Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University, the orthopedic patients and medical staff with COVID-19 admitted from Decemberm 31, 2019 to March 1, 2020, in-cluding clinical diagnosis and confirmed cases, were analyzed retrospectively. General information, including age, gen- der, basic diseases, contact history, symptoms, lung CT and prognosis, were collected and analysed preliminarily. On January 20, 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak was confirmed as "human to human transmission". COVID-19 infection of patients and medical staff in the wards were analysed, through the update of protection awareness and control measures. Department management, medical protection and standardized control procedures of trauma microsurgery were explored.Results:Five cases with clinical diagnosis or confirmed COVID-19 were included. One was inpatient and the rest 4 were medical staff, aged 25-81 years, 3 with confirmed and 2 with clinical diagnosis of COVID-19. After the treatment by specialists from Department of Infectious Disease and Department of Respiratory Disease, 4 of infected persons were cured and 1 died. Since January 20, 2020, when it was clear that the virus transmitted to people, there was no new case of infection among the medical staff and inpatients after the multidisciplinary collaboration in the ward prevention and control procedures were standardized and took in action.Conclusion:The spread of the COVID-19 can be effectively controlled by standardised diagnosis and treatment procedurs in the word of trauma microsurgery.
