Objective To set up a three-dimensional finite element model (FEM) to investigate biomechanics of point contact locking plate (PC-LP) fixating femoral shaft fractures. Methods One intact fresh adult cadaveric femur was scanned by CT at 1 mm interval. Then, the data of CT were utilized to establish three-dimensional FEM by using software Mimics and PRO/E and simulate the different clini-cal loading conditions. The changes of theoretical stress of femur and PC-LP were analyzed under flexion, axial compression and torsion loads. Results (1) Under four-point bending load, the distribution of femur stress was in uniformity, with the largest stress of the PC-LP focused on the edge. (2) Under axial compression load of 250 N, the largest stress of the femur was focused on the screw holes on beth distal ends, with the largest stress of the PC-LP focused on the middle screw holes. (3) Under the torsion load cused on the middlepart and the middle screw holes. Conclusions Under the four-point bending, ax-ial compression and torsion loads, the distribution of femur stress is in uniformity, when the largest stress of the PC-LP focuses on edge or the middle screw holes, while that of the PC-LP on two screw holes of proximal or distal ends.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the change of serum myeloperoxidase (MPO) and lipoxin A4 (LXA4) in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients with anxiety and depression and its clinical significance.
METHODS:
From December 2010 to February 2011, 143 CHD patients and 44 non-CHD patients (the control group) hospitalized in the Department of Cardiology at the Second Xiangya Hospital were enrolled. The hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS) was used to evaluate the psychological state of all patients and the CHD patients were assigned to an anxiety and depression group (n=57) or a non-depression and anxiety group (n=86). The serum levels of high sensitive C-reactive protein (Hs-CRP), MPO, and LXA4 were examined, and the ratio of MPO and LXA4 (M/L) was calculated.
RESULTS:
The levels of Hs-CRP, MPO, and LXA4 as well as M/L ratios in both CHD groups were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.01). Compared with the non-anxiety and depression group, the levels of MPO and LXA4, and M/L ratios in the anxiety and depression group increased (all P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that MPO was positively correlated with the score of HADS-total (HADS-t), HADS-anxiety (HADS-a), or HADS-depression (HADS-d), while LXA4 was negatively correlated with HADS-t or HADS-d. Multiple ordinal logistic regression analysis revealed that higher HADS-t score, stable angina, unstable angina, and acute myocardial infarction were the independent impact factors for the elevation of M/L ratio.
CONCLUSION
Anxiety and depression may aggravate the inflammatory response in CHD patients. The imbalance between inflammation and anti-inflammation may be part of the mechanism.

Background Acute cadmium (Cd) exposure can cause damage to multiple tissues, with the kidney being the primary target organ. The development of Cd-induced acute kidney injury involves complex mechanisms, in which autophagy and oxidative stress play crucial roles. Objective To investigate the effect of 10-hydroxy-2-decenoic acid (10-HDA) on kidney injury in mice exposed to cadmium, and provide experimental basis for studying the pathogenesis and prevention of Cd poisoning. Methods Thirty-five male C57BL/6 mice were divided into 7 groups (each of 5 mice): control group (normal saline, intraperitoneal injection), CdCl2 group (4 mg·kg−1, intraperitoneal injection), intervention groups ( 4 mg·kg−1 CdCl2, intraperitoneal Injection + 50, 100, 150, or 200 mg·kg−1 10-HDA, oral gavage), and 10-HDA group (150 mg·kg−1, oral gavage). All treatments were given for 14 d. Twenty-four hours after the last infection, physiological indicators [blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (CRE), malondialdehyde (MDA), and superoxide dismutase (SOD)], histopathological indicators, autophagy-related proteins (Atg7, Atg5, Beclin-1, and LC3), and mitochondrial autophagy-related proteins (PINK1 and Parkin) were detected to examine the effect of 10-HDA on kidney injury caused by CdCl2. Results Compared with the control group, the body weight of mice in the CdCl2 group was significantly reduced (P<0.01); compared with the CdCl2 group, the body weight of mice after intervention with different concentrations of 10-HDA was significantly increased (P<0.01). CdCl2 significantly increased BUN and CRE in the serum samples compared with the control group (P<0.01), which was significantly reduced to varying degrees after 100, 150, and 200 mg·kg−1 10-HDA intervention (P<0.01). MDA significantly increased and SOD significantly decreased in the renal cortex following CdCl2 administration compared with the control group (P<0.01), which was resolved following 10-HDA administration at different concentrations (P<0.01). In histopathological studies, 10-HDA restored injured kidney tissues induced by CdCl2. The expression levels of autophagy proteins Atg7 and LC3-II/I were significantly increased (P<0.05), and the expression level of Beclin-1 was significantly decreased (P<0.05) in the CdCl2 group compared with the control group. The expression levels of Atg7 were reduced to varying degrees after treatment with designed concentrations of 10-HDA, the expression levels of LC3-II/I were also reduced in the 50, 150, and 200 mg·kg−1 10-HDA intervention groups, and the expression levels of Beclin-1 were increased in the 50, 100, and 150 mg·kg−1 10-HDA intervention groups (P<0.05). The expression levels of PINK1 and Parkin in the CdCl2 group and the 50 mg·kg−1 10-HDA intervention group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.01). Compared with the CdCl2 group, the expression levels of PINK1 increased to varying degrees after 100, 150, and 200 mg·kg−1 10-HDA intervention, and the expression levels of Parkin increased in all 10-HDA intervention groups (P<0.01). Conclusion The intervention using 10-HDA can lessen acute kidney injury caused by CdCl2, reduce the expression of autophagy-related proteins, and increase the expression of mitochondrial autophagy-related proteins.

OBJECTIVES:
To understand the psychological status of the staff in a general hospital during the coronavirus disease 2019 and its influential factors, and to provide references for the mental health services to hospital staff.
METHODS:
Using star platform of questionnaire, the staff in the general hospital were investigated via Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale (DASS-21), Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) and Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ). The influential factors were discussed by descriptive analysis, rank sum test, single factor analysis, correlation analysis and multiple factors binary logistic regression analysis.
RESULTS:
A total of 2 060 valid questionnaires were collected. The negative emotions of nurses and cleaners were the most obvious. The depression scores, anxiety scores and stress scores for nurses and cleaners were 5.06±7.47, 6.36±7.84, 9.75±8.65, and 6.72±8.84, 4.51±6.56, 9.69±9.56, respectively. Multivariate binary logistic regression analysis showed that staff types, education levels, job status, economic situation and concerns on the supplies of protective goods were the main influential factors for depression; staff types, contacting status with infected patients, economic situation, concerns on the supplies of protective goods, history of disease were the main influential factors for anxiety; contacting status with infected patients, economic situation, concerns on the supplies of protective goods were the main influential factors for stress.
CONCLUSIONS
There are differences in psychological characteristics among different groups of staff in the general hospital under the outbreak. Thus psychological protection and intervention measures should be formulated according to different groups and work status.

Objective To explore the safety of minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) with three-field lymphadenectomy (3-FL) for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) by comparing the short-term outcomes between the 3-FL and the two-field lymphadenectomy (2-FL) in MIE. Methods The clinical data of patients with ESCC who underwent minimally invasive McKeown esophagectomy in our hospital from July 2015 to March 2022 were collected retrospectively. Patients were divided into a 3-FL group and a 2-FL group according to lymph node dissection method. And the clinical outcomes and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 257 patients with ESCC were included in this study. There were 211 males and 46 females with an average age of 62.2±8.1 years. There were 109 patients in the 3-FL group and 148 patients in the 2-FL group. The operation time of the 3-FL group was about 20 minutes longer than that of the 2-FL group (P<0.001). There was no statistical difference between the two groups in the intraoperatve blood loss (P=0.376). More lymph nodes (P<0.001) and also more positive lymph nodes (P=0.003) were obtained in the 3-FL group than in the 2-FL group, and there was a statistical difference in the pathological N stage between the two groups (P<0.001). But there was no statistical difference in the incidence of anastomotic leak (P=0.667), chyle leak (P=0.421), recurrent laryngeal nerve injury (P=0.081), pulmonary complications (P=0.601), pneumonia (P=0.061), cardiac complications (P=0.383), overall complications (P=0.147) or Clavien-Dindo grading (P=0.152) between the two groups. Conclusion MIE 3-FL can improve the efficiency of lymph node dissection and the accuracy of tumor lymph node staging, but it does not increase the postoperative complications, which is worthy of clinical application.
