Objective:To investigate the injury characteristics, treatment strategy and prognosis of acetabular fracture combined with ipsilateral femoral neck fracture.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 15 patients with acetabular fracture combined with ipsilateral femoral neck fracture who had been treated from January 2009 to June 2021 at Department of Orthopaedics, The First Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University. They were 10 males and 5 females, aged from 26 to 68 years (average, 47.1 years). The treatment strategy depended on their injury characteristics. For the 3 patients with incomplete displacement of the femoral neck fracture but no hip dislocation, the femoral neck fracture was treated by closed reduction and internal fixation; for the 7 patients with complete displacement of the femoral neck fracture but no hip dislocation, the femoral neck fracture was treated first by closed reduction and then by open reduction and internal fixation in case the closed reduction had failed; for the 5 patients complicated with hip dislocation (anterior one in 2 cases and posterior one in 3 cases), the femoral neck fracture was treated by open reduction and internal fixation. The acetabular fractures were treated via an appropriate surgical approach depending on their classifications. The operation time, intraoperative bleeding, fracture healing, functional recovery and complications such as postoperative avascular necrosis of the femoral head (NFH) were recorded.Results:In this cohort, the operation time ranged from 170 to 540 min, averaging 210 min, and the amount of intraoperative bleeding from 300 to 7,900 mL, averaging 800 mL. Postoperative X-ray films showed that all acetabular fractures and femoral neck fractures achieved anatomical reduction or satisfactory reduction. All patients were followed up for 1 to 13 years (average, 4 years). One patient had to receive total hip arthroplasty due to nonunion one year after operation, and the fractures in the other 14 patients healed by the first intention. At the last follow-up by the Merle d'Aubigné & Postel scoring, the function of the hip affected was excellent in 3 cases, good in 6 and poor in 6. NFH occurred in 4 cases, of which one had no hip dislocation and 3 had hip dislocation. Ectopic ossification developed in one patient after operation.Conclusions:The incidence of NFH is high in the patients with acetabular fracture combined with ipsilateral femoral neck fracture, especially higher in those complicated with hip dislocation. Treatment strategies should vary according to the injury characteristics. Attention should be paid to protection of the blood supply to the femoral head which significantly improves the prognosis.

Objective:To compare the effect of reduction and internal fixation of composite acetabular fracture with the modified two-window iliofemoral approach and ilioinguinal approach.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was used to analyze the clinical data of 160 patients with composite acetabular fracture admitted to First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2016 to August 2021, including 117 males and 43 females, aged 15-78 years [(44.1±16.0)years]. According to the Letournel classification system, there were 101 patients with both-column fracture, 5 with anterior wall/column combined with posterior semi-transverse fracture and 24 with T-shaped fracture. A total of 80 patients were treated using the modified iliofemoral incision combined with limited Pfannstiel incision (modified two-window iliofemoral approach group) and the other 80 patients were treated using the ilioinguinal approach (ilioinguinal approach group). The fracture healing was observed. The operation time and intraoperative bleeding volume were compared between the two groups. The quality of fracture reduction was evaluated by Matta scoring standard at 1 day and 6 months after operation. The modified Merle d′Aubigne & Postel scoring standard was used to evaluate the function of the affected hip joint at the last follow-up. The incidence of complications such as neurovascular injury, iatrogenic bladder injury, heterotopic ossification and femoral head necrosis were compared between the two groups.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-78 months [(43.3±17.9)months], with bony union of the fracture. The operation time and intraoperative bleeding volume in modified two-window iliofemoral approach group were 150.0 (123.8, 180.0)minutes and 600.0 (500.0, 787.5)ml when compared to 190.0 (150.0, 240.0)minutes and 700.0 (562.5, 887.5)ml in ilioinguinal approach group (all P<0.01). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the quality of fracture reduction at 1 day and 6 months after operation, function of hip joint at the last follow-up and incidence of complications (all P>0.05). Conclusions:For reduction and internal fixation of composite acetabular fracture, the modified two-window iliofemoral approach has advantages over the ilioinguinal approach in reducing operation time and intraoperative bleeding, although both methods yield similar results in fracture reduction quality, postoperative hip function and complication rate.

Objective:This study aims to explore the predictive value of T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), and early-delayed phases enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) radiomics prediction model in determining human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 status in breast cancer.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted, involving 187 patients with confirmed breast cancer by postsurgical pathology at Zhenjiang First People's Hospital during January 2021 and May 2023. Immunohistochemistry or fluorescence in situ hybridization was used to determine the HER-2 status of these patients, with 48 cases classified as HER-2 positive and 139 cases as HER-2 negative. The training set was used to construct the prediction models and the validation set was used to verify the prediction models. Layers of T2WI, ADC, and early-delayed phase DCE-MRI images were used to delineate the volumeof interest and 960 radiomic features were extracted from each case using Pyradiomic. After screening and dimensionality reduction by intraclass correlation coefficient, Pearson correlation analysis, least absolute shrinkage, and selection operator, the radiomics labels were established. Logistic regression analysis was used to construct the T2WI radiomics model, ADC radiomics model, DCE-2 radiomics model, DCE-6 radiomics model, and the joint sequence radiomics model to predict the HER-2 expression status of breast cancer, respectively. Based on the clinical, pathological, and MRI image characteristics of patients, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis wasused to construct a clinicopathological MRI feature model. The radscore of every patient and the clinicopathological MRI features which were statistically significant after screening were used to construct a nomogram model. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive performance of each model and the decision curve analysis wasused to evaluate the clinical usefulness.Results:The T2WI, ADC, DCE-2, DCE-6, and joint sequence radiomics models, the clinicopathological MRI feature model, and the nomogram model were successfully constructed to predict the expression status of HER-2 in breast cancer. ROC analysis showed that in the training set and validation set, the areas under the curve (AUC) of the T2WI radiomics model were 0.797 and 0.760, of the ADC radiomics model were 0.776 and 0.634, of the DCE-2 radiomics model were 0.804 and 0.759, of the DCE-6 radiomics model were 0.869 and 0.798, of the combined sequence radiomics model were 0.908 and 0.847, of the clinicopathological MRI feature model were 0.703 and 0.693, and of the nomogram model were 0.938 and 0.859, respectively. In the training set, the combined sequence radiomics model outperformed the clinicopathological features model ( P＜0.001). In the training and validation sets, the nomogram outperformed the clinicopathological features model ( P＜0.05). In addition, the diagnostic performance of the nomogram was better than that of the four single-modality radiomics models in the training cohort ( P＜0.05) and was better than that of DCE-2 and ADC models in the validation cohort ( P＜0.05). Decision curve analysis indicated that the value of individualized prediction models was higher than clinical and pathological prediction models in clinical practice. The calibration curve showed that the multimodal radiomics model had a high consistency with the actual results in predicting HER-2 expression. Conclusions:T2WI, ADC and early-delayed phase DCE-MRI imaging histology models for HER-2 expression status in breast cancer are expected to provide a non-invasive virtual pathological basis for decision-making on preoperative neoadjuvant regimens in breast cancer.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of total laparoscopic technique in the treatment of pelvic and acetabular fractures.Methods:A total of 7 patients with pelvic and acetabular fractures admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from April 2017 to August 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 5 males and 2 females, aged 43.9±9.9 years (range, 27-56 years). There was 1 pelvic fracture (Tile B3) and 6 acetabular fractures, Letournel typing transverse in 2 cases, double column in 1 case, transverse combined anterior column in 1 case, anterior column in 1 case, and "T" shape in 1 case. The causes of injury included traffic accident in 4 cases, falling from height in 1 case, falling in 1 case, and heavy object injury in 1 case. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, iatrogenic injuries of blood vessels, nerves, bladder and rectum, and incidence of postoperative complications were recorded. Matta imaging criteria was used to evaluate the quality of fracture reduction, and the hip function was evaluated by modified Merle d'Aubigné-Postel score.Results:All 7 patients were successfully operated and followed up for 12.0 (7.0, 72.0) months (range, 7-77 months). The operation time was 251.1±80.2 min (range, 150.0-370.0 min), and the intraoperative blood loss was 100.0 (50.0, 300.0) ml (range, 50-350 ml). There was no nerve, blood vessel, bladder or rectum injury during operation. Postoperative pelvic X-ray and CT showed no internal fixation into the joint. Anatomic reduction was achieved in 5 cases and satisfactory reduction in 2 cases. One patient with a transverse acetabular fracture had a slight separation and displacement of the posterior column, but the acetabular articular surface was flat as a whole without obvious steps and was not fixed. One patient with pelvic fracture had a comminuted anterior pelvic ring with severe displacement and did not achieve anatomical repositioning intraoperatively, but the anterior pelvic ring was a non-intra-articular fracture, and the fracture ends were immobilized with bilateral plates, and the morphology and stability of the anterior pelvic ring recovered well after the operation. The Merle d'Aubigné - Postel score at the final follow-up was 18.0 (17.0, 18.0) points (range, 17.0-18.0 points), with 4 excellent and 3 good cases. All 7 patients achieved clinical healing with a healing time of 2.5 (2.5, 3.0) months (range, 1.0-3.0 months). No delayed union or nonunion occurred. At the last follow-up, there were no complications such as internal fixation fracture, incision and internal fixation infection, and deep vein thrombosis.Conclusion:Total laparoscopic technique for the treatment of pelvic and acetabular fractures has less intraoperative blood loss, less surgical trauma, and satisfactory clinical efficacy. It can be used as a new choice of minimally invasive treatment of pelvic and acetabular fractures.

Objective:To analyze the impact of gender on prognosis in patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after hepatectomy.Methods:The data of 1 796 patients with HCC who underwent liver resection at the Guangxi Medical University Cancer Hospital from January 2010 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 1 548 males and 248 females, the average age were 49.6 years. Patients were followed up for recurrence and survival. After propensity score matching, the postoperative survival rates of male and female patients were compared. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression was used to analyze independent factors affecting prognosis of patients with HCC after hepatectomy. The age and menopause were analyzed by subgroup analyses.Results:The 1-, 3- and 5-years cumulative overall and recurrence-free survival rates of male patients were significantly lower than that of female patients (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that female was an independent protective factor affecting postoperative recurrence ( HR=0.777, 95% CI: 0.615-0.982) and overall survival ( HR=0.669, 95% CI: 0.520-0.856). Using a cut-off value of 50 years old, the patients were divided into <50 years old ( n=915) and ≥50 years old ( n=881). In patients who were less than 50 years old, the 1-, 3- and 5-years cumulative overall and recurrence-free survival rates of male patients were significantly lower than those of female patients (all P<0.05). In patients ≥50 years old, there were no significant difference in the cumulative overall and recurrence-free survival rates between male and female patients (all P>0.05). Female patients were then divided into the postmenopausal group ( n=152) and the premenopausal group ( n=96). There were no significant differences in the cumulative overall and cumulative recurrence-free survival rates between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The prognosis of female patients with HCC after hepatectomy was significantly better than that of male patients.

Objective·To analyze the clinicopathologic characteristics of patients with kidney-involved diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL),including clinical characteristics,pathological characteristics,gene mutation profiles,and prognostic factors.Methods·One hundred and forty-nine patients with kidney-involved DLBCL,admitted to Ruijin Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from July 2005 to November 2021,were retrospectively analyzed for their clinicopathological data,survival and prognostic factors,which included therapeutic methods,clinical outcomes,staging,etc.Gene mutation profiles were evaluated by targeted sequencing of 54 lymphoma-related genes.Prognostic factors were also analyzed based on the information mentioned above.Results·A total of 149 kidney-involved DLBCL cases were included,of which 89 patients(58.4%)were aged over sixty,121 patients(81.2%)were staged Ann Arbor Ⅲ?Ⅳ,27 patients(18.1%)had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group(ECOG)performance status of two or more,121 patients(81.2%)had elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)level,111 patients(74.5%)had extranodal invasion in at least two organs and 131 patients(87.9%)scored over 2 points on the international prognosis index(IPI).The estimated 5-year overall survival(OS)rate and progression-free survival(PFS)rate of kidney-involved DLBCL patients were 52.2%and 50.4%respectively.Univariate analysis revealed that elevated serum LDH levels were an adverse prognostic factor for both OS(P=0.048)and PFS(P=0.033).In pathological characteristics,145 patients(97.3%)belonged to DLBCL,not otherwise specified(NOS)and 39 patients(26.3%)belonged to germinal center B-cell(GCB)according to Hans classification.Among 144 patients who could be evaluated for clinical outcomes,87 patients(60.4%)got complete response(CR).Targeted sequencing data from 75 kidney-involved DLBCL patients showed high mutation frequency in PIM1(n=23,31%),MYD88(n=22,29%),CD79B(n=21,28%)and KMT2D(n=18,24%),with CD79B mutation indentified as an adverse prognostic factor for OS in patients with kidney-involved DLBCL(P=0.034).Conclusion·Elevated serum LDH level is an adverse prognostic factor in patients with kidney-involved DLBCL.The prognosis of patients with CD79B mutations is poor.

ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of overweight or obesity in community patients with schizophrenia in Shanghai and to explore the related factors. MethodsStratified cluster sampling method was used and the general condition， physical examination and laboratory examination data of patients with schizophrenia who voluntarily participated in 2020 free health examination of National Basic Public Health Service were analyzed. ResultsA total of 3 200 patients were included into the study ，and the prevalence of overweight and obesity was 36.75% and 17.19%， respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that age between 40 and 60 （OR=1.333， 95%CI： 1.030‒1.724）， intake of first-generation antipsychotics （OR=1.413， 95%CI： 1.112‒1.796）， intake of second-generation antipsychotics （OR=1.573， 95%CI： 1.288‒1.921）， high-normal blood pressure （OR=1.549， 95%CI： 1.245‒1.927）， high-abnormal blood pressure （OR=2.824， 95%CI： 2.204‒3.619）， elevated ALT （OR=1.874， 95%CI： 1.386‒2.535）， elevated FBG （OR=1.270， 95%CI： 1.066‒1.513）， and elevated TG （OR=1.652， 95%CI： 1.335‒2.044） were the related factors that associated overweight or obesity in patients with schizophrenia. ConclusionOverweight and obesity are highly prevalent among community patients with schizophrenia in Shanghai. Age between 40 and 60， taking first-generation and second-generation antipsychotics， blood pressure higher than 120/80 mmHg， elevated ALT， elevated FBG， and elevated TG are associated with overweight or obesity in patients with schizophrenia. To provide personalized health guidance， medical staff in primary health care institutions should pay more attention to high-risk groups of overweight and obesity in schizophrenia patients at annual physical examination.

We previously identified a unique nucleus, the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-contacting nucleus. This study aims to understand its gene architecture and preliminarily suggest its functions. The results showed that there were about 19,666 genes in this nucleus, of which 913 were distinct from the dorsal raphe nucleus (non-CSF contacting). The top 40 highly-expressed genes are mainly related to energy metabolism, protein synthesis, transport, secretion, and hydrolysis. The main neurotransmitter is 5-HT. The receptors of 5-HT and GABA are abundant. The channels for Cl^-, Na⁺, K⁺, and Ca²⁺ are routinely expressed. The signaling molecules associated with the CaMK, JAK, and MAPK pathways were identified accurately. In particular, the channels of transient receptor potential associated with nociceptors and the solute carrier superfamily members associated with cell membrane transport were significantly expressed. The relationship between the main genes of the nucleus and life activities is preliminarily verified.
