Objective lo analyze the difference of peri-coronary tat attenuation index(pr Al)on different grades of hypertension(HT),and to explore the value of pFAI in evaluating the risk of HT patients.Methods Retrospective data on hospitalized patients who underwent coronary computed tomography angiography(CCTA)examination for chest pain were collected.A total of 415 clini-cally confirmed HT patients were selected as observation group(including 132 patients in grade 1 HT group,137 patients in grade 2 HT group,146 patients in grade 3 HT group),and 187 non-hypertension patients during the same period as control group.The differ-ence of fat attenuation index(FAI)in three main coronary arteries[left anterior descending artery(LAD),left circumflex artery(LCX),right coronary artery(RCA)]was compared,and the correlation between pF AI and HT patients was analyzed.Results RCA-FAI(-78.86 HU±7.66 HU)and LAD-FAI(-80.62 HU±7.50 HU)were higher in HT group than those in control group(-84.46 HU± 8.00 HU,-83.43 HU±7.51 HU,P＜0.05).pFAI value was higher in grade 3 HT group than that in grade 1 HT group and grade 2 HT group(P＜0.05),while there were no differences between grade 1 HT group and grade 2 HT group(P＞0.05).After adjusting the influence of traditional risk factors and coronaryartery disease,RCA-FAI had relatively closer relationship with HT grades(r=0.47,P＜0.001).Conclusion LAD-FAI,RCA-FAI in the HT group are higher than those in control group and RCA-FAI has relatively closer relationship with HT grades,suggesting that RCA-FAI may be an imaging indicator to evaluate the pro-gression of HT and predict the risk of HT.

Objective:To investigate the stability and feasibility of using absorbable screws during Bernese periacetabular osteotomy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on a 36 year-old woman diagnosed with developmental dysplasia of the hip, who had undergone Bernese periacetabular osteotomy. Finite element analysis was used to simulate the stability of the acetabulum under loads of 10%, 20%, 50%, and 100% of the patient's weight. The structural stiffness of the pelvis and the maximum equivalent stress on the absorbable screws were observed under different conditions, including whether the acetabular bone block and the ilium were in contact, whether 3 or 4 screws were used, and whether a graft (including fibular cortical bone and PEEK grafts) was used.Results:The structural stiffness of the pelvis fixed with four screws increased by 67%-94% compared to that with three screws. After using a graft, the structural stiffness of the pelvis increased by 50%-83%. As the load increased, the maximum equivalent stress on the screws also increased. When the acetabular bone block and the ilium had no contact, no graft was used, and only three screws were used for fixation, the maximum equivalent stress could reach 518.9 MPa, while this value dropped to 61% when four screws were used (318.7 MPa). When the acetabular bone block and the ilium were in contact, the maximum equivalent stress was about 12% of that when there was no contact, regardless of the number of screws used. When a cortical bone graft or a PEEK graft was used, the maximum equivalent stress could drop to 21%-26% of that without a graft. When the screw strength was 130 MPa, a load of 20% of body weight was applied, and only three screws were used without a graft, the equivalent stress could exceed the strength of the screw; if four screws were used, the equivalent stress was slightly higher than the strength of the screw when a load of 50% of body weight was applied. However, when a graft was used (either cortical bone or PEEK), even when a load of 100% of body weight was applied, the equivalent stress was slightly lower than the strength of the screw.Conclusion:Absorbable screws can provide sufficient stability for Bernese periacetabular osteotomy. The contact between the acetabular bone block and the ilium, an increase in the number of screws, and the use of grafts (cortical bone and PEEK grafts) can further improve stability. Therefore, absorbable screws have broad application prospects in Bernese periacetabular osteotomy.

Objective To investigate whether discontinuous sleep supplementation can reduce myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in diabetic rats aggravated by circadian rhythm disorder.Methods The rats were injected intra-peritoneal with 1％streptozotocin(STZ)30 mg/kg combined with high-fat and high-glucose diet to replicate diabetic model.Forty diabetic rats were randomly divided into four groups with 10 in each:sham surgery group(Sham group),ischemia-reperfusion group(I/R group),in which the left anterior descending coronary artery(LDA)was ligated for thirty minutes and reperfusion for 2 h,circadian rhythm disorder group(Crd group,24 h daily light and food),discontinuous sleep supplementation group(Dss group,every 3 hours of illumination and 1.5 hours break at night).We analyzed the myocardial infarct size(by 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride stai-ning),determined serum creatine kinase-myoglobin(CK-MB)activity and cardiac troponinⅠ(cTnⅠ)concentrations;the expression level of BMAL1 and REV-ERBα was determined by Western blot.Results Compared to the sham group,the I/R group showed a significantly increased in myocardial infarct size,serum CK-MB activity and cTnⅠ concentration.The expression of the myocardial biological clock gene BMAL1 was down-regulated,while the ex-pression of REV-ERBα was up-regulated(P<0.05).Compared to the I/R group,the Crd group showed a signifi-cantly increase in myocardial infarct size,serum CK-MB activity and cTnⅠ concentration.The expression of the myocardial biological clock gene BMAL1 was down-regulated,while the expression of REV-ERBα was up-regulated(P<0.05).Compared to the Crd group,Dss group showed a significantly decrease in the myocardial infarct size,serum cTn concentration and CK-MB activity.Furthermore,there was an increased protein expression of BMAL1 and a decrease of REV-ERBα(P<0.05).Conclusions Discontinuous sleep supplementation can reduce myocardial is-chemia-reperfusion injury in diabetic rats aggravated by circadian rhythm disorder.

Objective:To explore the influence of family function and personal characteristics on death anxiety in patients with advanced cancer, providing reference for finding methods and approaches to alleviate death anxiety in advanced cancer patients.Methods:From March to June 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 182 advanced cancer patients admitted to the Cancer Center of the Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. The Chinese Version of Death and Dying Distress Scale and Family APGAR Index were used to investigate patients' death anxiety and family function. The Numerical Rating Scale and Kamofsky Performance Status were used to assess patients' pain and performance status. Single factor analysis and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of death anxiety in advanced cancer patients.Results:A total of 182 questionnaires were distributed, and 165 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 90.7%. The death anxiety score of advanced cancer patients was (22.52±15.27), and 10.3% (17/165) of patients had moderate or above death anxiety. The patients' total family function score was (8.62±1.97), and 86.7%(143/165) patients self-reported good family function. The death anxiety score was negatively correlated with the family function score ( P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that Kamofsky Performance Status score, pre-illness employment, family function, place of residence, and pain score were the influencing factors of death anxiety in advanced cancer patients, and the differences were statistically significant ( R2=0.196, P<0.01) . Conclusions:The advanced cancer patients have low levels of death anxiety in our study. Advanced cancer patients with moderate family dysfunction, living in rural areas, working before illness, and high pain scores have high levels of death anxiety, while patients with good performance status have low levels of death anxiety. It is recommended that clinical workers strengthen the assessment of death anxiety and family function in patients with advanced cancer, take timely and effective measures based on influencing factors, and help alleviate death anxiety in patients with advanced cancer.
