Objective To explore the effect of atorvastatin on postoperative complications after the burr hole drainage of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH). Methods The clinical data of 172 CSDH patients who had underwent the burr hole drainage were retrospectively analyzed. Among them 82 patients were given atorvastatin (atorvastatin group), and 90 patients were not given atorvastatin (control group). The postoperative complications were compared between 2 groups. Results All patients were followed up for 6 months. The total incidence of postoperative complications in control group was significantly higher than that in atorvastatin group:47.78%(43/90) vs. 31.71%(26/82), and the recurrent rate of subdural hematoma and incidence of subdural effusion in control group were significantly higher than those in atorvastatin group: 22.22% (20/90) vs. 8.54% (7/82) and 28.89% (26/90) vs. 12.20%(10/82). There were statistical differences (P<0.05). There were no statistical difference in the incidences of pneumocephalus, acute epidural/subdural hematoma and brain damage induced by drainage tube (P>0.05). Conclusions Atorvastatin can improve the prognosis of CSDH patients, especially in reducing the incidence of recurrent subdural hematoms and subdural effusion.

Objective:
To examine the causal relationship between inflammatory factors and breast cancer using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach, so as to provide the basis for the prevention and treatment of breast cancer.
Methods:
Data of 91 inflammatory cytokines (n=14 824) and 5 subtypes of breast cancer (n=247 173) were collected from genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) associated with 91 inflammatory factors were selected as instrumental variables. MR analyses were performed using the inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method with inflammatory factors as exposure factors and breast cancer as outcome variables. The risk of type I error and the effect of multiple testing were reduced using the FDR correction method. The stability and reliability of the results were verified using Steiger test of directionality, MR-Egger regression, MR-PRESSO test and leave-one out method.
Results:
Twenty-three inflammatory factors, including β nerve growth factor, interleukin-5, cystatin D and C-X-C chemokine ligand 1 were statistically associated with breast cancer (all P<0.05). After FDR adjustment, only evaluated abundance of oncostatin-M was found to be statistically associated with an increased risk of Basal-like (triple-negative) breast cancer (OR=1.186, 95%CI: 1.081-1.302, P=0.001, q=0.029), and the other 22 inflammatory factors had a high risk of type I error (all q>0.1). The sensitivity analysis indicated that the results were robust. No instrumental variables were found to have a significant impact on the results, which could exclude the influence of heterogeneity, horizontal pleiotropy, and reverse causality on the outcome.
Conclusion
The increased abundance of oncostatin-M may increase the risk of Basal-like (triple-negative) breast cancer.

Objective:To investigate the effects of establishment of a trauma center on the therapeutic efficacy for patients with severe multiple injuries.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted in the patients who had been treated at The Second Affiliated Hospital, University of South China for severe multiple injuries from October 2015 to September 2019. They were assigned into 2 groups. The study group included 102 patients who had been treated after establishment of our trauma center (from October 2017 to September 2019) while the control group 126 patients who had been treated before establishment of our trauma center (from October 2015 to September 2017). The 2 groups were compared in terms of time for emergency treatment (from admission to emergency surgery or ICU), ICU stay, hospital stay, total medical costs and mortality.Results:There was a significant difference between the 2 groups in time for emergency treatment [51 (47, 57) min for the study group versus 97 (87, 107) min for the control group] ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in ICU stay [4 (1.8, 9.3) d versus 4 (2.0, 10.0) d], hospital stay [25.5 (15.8, 39.0) d versus 21.5 (12.8, 41.5) d], or total medical costs [¥41,259.0 yuan (¥26,950 yuan, ¥81,599 yuan)] ( P>0.05). There was a significant difference between the 2 groups in mortality [12.7% (13/102) for the study group versus 24.6% (31/126) for the control group] ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Establishment of a trauma center can effectively shorten time for emergency treatment, improve treatment efficacy and reduce mortality for patients with severe multiple injuries.
