Objective To evaluate the surgical characteristics and clinical effect of percutaneous reduction with kirachner wire assisted by a small lateral incision approach for poking reduction and allngraft bone transplantation in treating compressive intra-articular calcaneal fractures. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed among 17 patients with compressive intra-articular calcaneal fractures (Sanders Ⅱ to Ⅲ ) treated by percutaneous reduction with kirachner wire assisted by a small lateral incision approach for poking reduction and allograft bone transplanta-tion. Results All the patients were followed-up for an average time of 13.5 months. The wound of 15 feet achieved primary healing, the acute rejection was found in 2 patients. The Bohler's angle was (9.58±5.25)° and Gissane an-gle was (101.15±13.83)° preoperation and was (33.55±4.17)° and (113.25±12.17)° immediate postopera-tion, showing statistically significant differences pre-and postoperation(P < 0.05). By the lately follow-up, the Bohler angle was (31.65±7.72)° and Gissane angle was (111.15±8.68)°, also showing statistically significant differ-ences when compared to preoperation (P < 0.05), there was no statistically significant differences (P > 0.05) when compared with normal X-ray. Conclusion That percutaneous reduction with kirschner wire assisted by a small lateral incision approach for poking reduction and allograft bone transplantation in treating the compressive intra-articular cal-caneal fractures (Sanders Ⅱ to Ⅲ) is minimally invasive, less complication, and it enables satisfactory recoastruc-tion of bone defects and allows metanatomic reduction and functional recovery, also maintaining restoration of calcane-al height and anatomic reduction of the posterior facet.

Graphene oxide (GO) modified stationary phase for open tubular capillary (3 m × 25 μm i. d. ) of liquid chromatography ( OT-CLC) was fabricated by coating GO sheets onto poly ( vinylbenzyl chloride-divinylbenzene) porous composite layer via covalent coupling, which was prepared by in-situ polymerization. Scanning electron microscopy ( SEM), Raman spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy ( TEM) were used to characterize the structure of the stationary phase. The results demonstrated that poly(vinylbenzyl chloride-divinylbenzene) porous composite layer had decentralized globular structure, and the GO sheets covered on the porous layer homogenously. The phase ratio and sample capacity were greatly improved due to the spherical polymer layer and the coverage of GO. Thus, alkyl benzenes, neutral polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, acidic and basic compounds could be well separated by using acetonitrile-water as eluent, while four nucleobases were completely separated by using acetonitrile-0. 02 mol/ L ammonium acetate as mobile phase. The run-to-run, day-to-day, and column-to-column reproducibilities were evaluated by calculating the relative standard deviations (RSDs, n =6) of the retention time of o-phenylenediamine, aniline and 2, 4, 6-trifluoroaniline, respectively. These RSD values were all in the range of 0. 3% -2. 0% .

Objective To analyze the epidemic characteristics of tuberculosis (TB) cases in Zhejiang province from 2005 to 2014, and to identify the cluster spots.Methods TB notification data in Zhejiang province from 2005 to 2014 were analyzed at county and district level by using spatial scan statistic analysis method, which was showed on the digital map.Results In zhejiang province from 2005 to 2014, a total of 377 707 cases of patients with tuberculosis were reported.The average annual registration rates of the entire province was 72.61/100 000 (range: 28.85/100 000-182.90/100 000).Spatial analysis identified 14 clusters (RR=1.05-1.62) with statistical significance.Temporal analysis revealed that there were clusters between 2005 and 2009 in terms of the notification data on TB cases (RR=1.27,P=0.001).Spatio-temporal analysis identified 6 clusters (RR=1.19-3.55) with statistical significance.Counties and districts included in the first class cluster were similar by using the two different methods-spatial analysis and spatial-temporal analysis.Conclusions There is a descending trend of TB cases notification rates from western to eastern Zhejiang during the study period.The distribution of the TB case notified is not random at spatial, temporal and spatio-temporal levels.

Aim Toclarifytheeffectofacteosideon proliferation of neural stem cells (NSCs ) from adult mice,as well as the involved signaling pathway.Meth-ods NSCswereisolatedfromthesubventricularzone (SVZ)of adult C57BL/6 mice,then identified by im-munofluorescence staining with Nestin,the marker of NSCs.NSCs were exposed to acteoside (5,10,20,40μmol·L-1 )in absence of mitogen(EGF/bFGF)for 24 h.We employed CCK8 assay to detect NSCs viability and BrdU staining to identify NSCs proliferation.We performed Western blot to quantify the expression level ofp-AktinducedbyacteosideonNSCs.Results With-out mitogen,acteoside increased NSCs proliferation by activating p-Akt,which can be blocked by LY294002, the inhibitor of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.Conclu-sion ActeosidepromotestheproliferationofNSCsfrom adult mice by activating PI3K/AKT pathway.

Objective To determine the prevalence,trends and risk factors of drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) in Ningbo during 2007-2010,and to explore the efficient control strategy of drugresistant TB.Methods A cross-sectional study of regional anti-TB drug resistance was conducted in Ningbo.The registered and culture-positive TB patients were enrolled and drug sensitivity test was performed.The demographic and clinical information were collected from the national TB report system.Logistic regression model was used to determine the risk factors of drug resistance.Results Of 1613 enrolled TB patients,39.3％-48.3％ were resistant to any first-line anti-TB drug and 14.0％-19.9％ were multidrug resistant (MDR)-TB.The proportion of new cases resistant to any first-line anti-TB drug was 35.4 ％-42.1％ and MDR TB was 9.8％- 12.2 ％,which were both significantly lower than those of retreated patients (69.5％-72.7％ and 33.9％ - 54.5％,respectively).The multivariate Logistic regression model showed that anti-TB treatment history and migration were significantly associated with any drug resistance (OR=3.298,95 ％ CI 2.391 4.550and OR=0.771,95 ％CI 0.608 - 0.978,respectively) ; while age,treatment history and migration were also significantly associated with MDR-TB.Conclusions Drug-resistant TB prevalence showed a decrease trend in Ningbo,while the resistant rates in both new cases and retreated cases still remain at high levels. Improved case management,including directly observed treatment short-course and appropriate treatment regimens specifically for drug-resistant TB,should be developed to prevent further transmission and development of drug-resistant TB in this setting.

Objective To explore the relationship between the serum neuropeptide Y (NPY) levels and the pathogenesis,therapeutic intervention of schizophrenia. Methods One hundard twenty-five patients with schizophrenia (case group) with no medication for at least 4-week and 136 healthy controls (control group) were evaluated by Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS) and Positive and Negative Syndrome Scala (PANSS). Simultaneously blood tests were performed to detect serum NPY levels. In the case group, PANSS was evaluated and blood collected again after 4 weeks of treatment with olanzapine. Result At the baseline,the serum NPY concentration was significantly lower in the case group than in control group (t=-5.79, P<0.01). The scores of RBANS and its factors were significantly lower in the case group than in control group (all P<0.01). The concentration was positively correlated with the score of the attention factor for RBANS scale (r=0.20, P=0.04). After treatment with olanzapine for 4 weeks,the serum NPY level in the case group was significantly increased (t=-2.23,P=0.03).The scores of PANSS total scale and subscale were significantly decreased(all P<0.01).There was no significant correlation between alterations of the serum level of NPY and PANSS total or subscale scores from baseline to 4-week (all P>0.05). Conclusion The present study has revealed a significant decrease in serum NPY levels in patients with schizophrenia which can be attenuated by treatment of Olanzapine.The action of Olanzapine may be related to the mechanism of action of Olanzapine.However,there is no correlation between alterations of the serum level of NPY and the improvement in the patientˊs clinical symptoms.

Objective To assess the efficacy and side effects of intravesical instillation of BCG after transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT) in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients.Methods The clinical data of patients treated with BCG 120 mg per course induced perfusion or more after TURBT from December 2013 to October 2016 in 18 hospitals of northeast China region,were analyzed retrospectively.The first part,data of 106 patients with moderate,high-risk NMIBC were collected.A total of 83 patients were male,while the other 23 patients were female.The average age was 66.7 years old.The clinical staging were T1 in 86(81.1％) cases,Ta in 20(18.9％) cases and carcinoma in situ in 6 (5.7％) patients.Intravesical instillation of BCG was executed after transurethral resection of the bladder tumor.The incidence rate of recurrence and progression during more than 6 months' follow-up time were observed.Multivariate analyses were done by using logistic analysis and Cox proportional hazards regression model with Kaplan-Meier method.The second part,treatment compliance of 276 patients with bladder cancer,including moderate/high-risk NMIBC in 263 cases,moderate/high-risk NMIBC followed with renal pelvis/ureteral carcinoma in 8 cases were and moderate/high-risk NMIBC with renal pelvis/ureteral carcinoma in 5 cases who treated with BCG after the surgeries,were observed.Patients consisted of 211 males and 65 females with average age of 68.3 years.Results With a median follow-up of 12 months,9 (8.5％) patients experienced tumor recurrence and 2 (1.9％) patients were found progression in the first part.The one-year cancer free recurrence rate of the patients was 91.5％.Statistically significant prognostic factors for recurrence identified by multivariable analyses were prior recurrence of the tumors (OR =3.214,95％CI0.804-12.845,P =0.099).In the second port,an incidence rate of adverse effects was 64.1％ (177/276).The Ⅲ/Ⅳ degree complications were occurred in 11 patients and satisfactory outcomes achieved with active treatment.A total of 36 patients withdrawal with the major causes were recurrence and progression of bladder tumor in 12 cases (4.4 ％),9 cases (3.3 ％) with economic reasons and 11 cases (4.0％) with serious complications.Conclusions NMIBC patients treated with intravesical BCG therapy have approving cancer free recurrence rates and acceptable adverse effects.Prior recurrence may be prognostic factor of recurrence after intravesical BCG therapy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors of fertility behaviors with preterm birth and low birth weight， and to develop a nomogram model to predict the occurrence of low birth weight. MethodsBirth registration information in Shanghai from 2010 to 2020 was collected， and ANOVA and Chi-square tests were used to compare the differences in reproductive behavior factors and newborn health status across time. The odds ratio （OR） value and 95%CI were calculated by a multi-classification logistic regression model to determine the association between reproductive behavior factors and preterm birth or low birth weight infants. A nomogram model was established based on logistic model and the area under the ROC curve was used to assess the effect of the model. ResultsThis analysis included 2 089 384 live newborns. The incidence of full-term low birth weight， preterm normal weight and preterm low birth weight in Shanghai was 0.94%， 2.48% and 2.01%， respectively. From 2010 to 2020， 40.00% women had a history of abortion， the proportion of women who gave birth at age ≥40 years old increased from 1.05% to 2.24%， the proportion of fathers aged ≥40 years increased from 4.79% to 7.48%， and the proportion of women with postgraduate or above increased from 4.81% to 11.74%. The incidence of preterm low birth weight in Shanghai showed an increasing trend over time. Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of preterm low birth weight was lower in female than in male infants （OR=0.97， 95%CI： 0.95‒0.98）， and the risk of full-term low birth weight was higher than in male infants （OR=1.85， 95%CI： 1.80‒1.90）. The risk of preterm birth and low birth weight was lower for couples of childbearing age with higher education. The risk of preterm low birth weight in newborns tended to increase with maternal age at childbirth >30 years， paternal age ≥40 years， and the number of abortions >2 times. Mother <25 or >35 years， father aged 30‒34 years， and the number of abortions >3 times were the risk factors of full-term low birth weight infants. ConclusionCouples of childbearing age who choose to have children at too high or too low age may increase the risk of preterm birth or low birth weight， so it is necessary to strengthen population awareness and promote age-appropriate childbirth. Multiple abortions are also associated with preterm birth and low birth weight， and it is advisable to popularize the scientific knowledge of contraception and birth control to reduce unnecessary abortions. The nomogram in the study can visualize the risk of full-term and low birth weight infant at different levels of factors， which can assist couples preparing for pregnancy in making decisions about the timing of childbirth and understanding the level of risk.
