This study was designed following eyeball extirpation to evaluate the therapeutic effects of hydroxyapatite and to explore the causes and preventing from exposure during orbital implantation. A total of 23 cases with autologou sclera and muscular suture selected from Department of Ophthalmology, Affiliated Hospital of Luzhou Medical College between January 2005 and December 2007 were retrospectively summarized and analyzed. Seventeen cases were implanted initially and the other 6 cases received secondary implantation. For the implantation with scleral-wrap, a 360? peritomy, limbic sclerotomy and full keratectomy were performed with corneoscleral scissors. Uveal tissue was completely removed. Posterior sclera was radially incised, and the hydroxyapatite orbital implant was implanted. Anterior sclera was sutured completely. Other implantations without using sclera-wrap were performed with the hydroxyapatite orbital implant in muscle cone and four rectal muscles were sutured to the hole of the hydroxyapatite orbital implant. Mattress suture of fascia tissue with double staggered position was performed in all the implantations. Conjunctiva was sutured discontinuously. This implant provided satisfactory functional motility and stability. Two cases developed implant exposure, suggesting that hydroxyapatite was the implant of choice for cosmesis following surgical removal of the eyeball, or enucleation. The complication rate is low and implant exposure, if it occurs, can be easily managed.

Objective:To construct a prediction model of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy and explore its application value.Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 285 patients with periampullary diseases who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy in the the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from January 2015 to September 2018 were collected. There were 183 males and 102 females, aged (56±14)years, with a range from 12 to 84 years. According to the random numbers showed in the computer, patients were randomly divided into training dataset consisting of 214 patients and validation dataset consisting of 71 patients, with a ratio of 3∶1. The training dataset was used to construct prediction model, and the validation dataset was used to evaluate performance of prediction model. Observation indicators: (1) incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula; (2) construction of prediction model of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy; (3) validation of prediction model of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed by the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range), and comparison between groups was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney rank sum test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were conducted using the Logistic regression model. The accuracy of prediction model was analyzed by drawing receiver operating characteristic curve and calculating area under curve (AUC). Results:(1) Incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula: of 214 patients in the training dataset, 45 patients had postoperative pancreatic fistula, including 39 of grade B and 6 of grade C, respectively. (2) Construction of prediction model of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Results of univariate analysis showed that body mass index(BMI), diameter of the main pancreatic duct on computed tomography (CT) scan, diameter of the main pancreatic duct by intraoperative exploration, pancreas texture, and level of amylase in ascites at the postoperative first day were related factors for pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy ( χ2=32.450, 15.789, 19.577, 4.559, Z=-7.962, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that BMI>25 kg/m 2, diameter of the main pancreatic duct by intraoperative exploration <3 mm and level of amylase in ascites at the postoperative first day >2 651U/L were independent risk factors for pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy ( odds ratio=0.148, 4.286, 0.086, 95% confidence interval: 0.058-0.376, 1.736-10.580, 0.032-0.231, P<0.05). Based on results of multivariate analysis, a prediction model of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy was built: the predicted value of pancreatic fistula=Exp[0.452-1.914(BMI)+ 1.455(diameter of the main pancreatic duct by intraoperative exploration)-2.451(level of amylase in ascites at the postoperative first day)]/1+ Exp[0.452-1.914(BMI)+ 1.455(diameter of the main pancreatic duct by intraoperative exploration)-2.451(level of amylase in ascites at the postoperative first day)]. The model had the AUC of 0.888 (95% confidence interval : 0.832-0.943, P<0.05). (3) Validation of prediction model of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy: in the validation dataset, the prediction model of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy had the AUC of 0.868 (95% confidence interval: 0.780-0.957, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the AUC between the training dataset and validation dataset ( Z=0.514, P>0.05). Conclusions:BMI>25 kg/m 2, diameter of the main pancreatic duct by intraoperative exploration <3 mm and level of amylase in ascites at the postoperative first day >2 651 U/L are independent risk factors for pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Construction of a prediction model of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduo-denectomy can effectively predict the risks of postoperative pancreatic fistula.

Macaque is a common animal model in drug safety assessment. Its behavior reflects its health condition before and after drug administration, which can effectively reveal the side effects of drugs. At present, researchers usually rely on artificial methods to observe the behavior of macaque, which cannot achieve uninterrupted 24-hour monitoring. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a system to realize 24-hour observation and recognition of macaque behavior. In order to solve this problem, this paper constructs a video dataset containing nine kinds of macaque behaviors (MBVD-9), and proposes a network called Transformer-augmented SlowFast for macaque behavior recognition (TAS-MBR) based on this dataset. Specifically, the TAS-MBR network converts the red, green and blue (RGB) color mode frame input by its fast branches into residual frames on the basis of SlowFast network and introduces the Transformer module after the convolution operation to obtain sports information more effectively. The results show that the average classification accuracy of TAS-MBR network for macaque behavior is 94.53%, which is significantly improved compared with the original SlowFast network, proving the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method in macaque behavior recognition. This work provides a new idea for the continuous observation and recognition of the behavior of macaque, and lays the technical foundation for the calculation of monkey behaviors before and after medication in drug safety evaluation.

Objective To investigate the effect of Yinchenhao decoction on renal oxidative stress injury in rats with obstructive jaundice and its association with the regulation of the expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and nuclear translocation. Methods A total of 32 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group (S group), model group (O group), low-dose Yinchenhao decoction group (LY group), and high-dose Yinchenhao decoction group (HY group), with 8 rats in each group. For the rats in the S group, the upper common bile duct was isolated without ligation, and for those in the other groups, double ligation of the middle and upper 1/3 of the common bile duct was performed to establish a model of obstructive jaundice. After 7 days, the rats in the LY group and the HY group were given Yinchenhao decoction by gavage at a dose of 6.3 and 18.9 mL/kg, respectively, while those in the S and O groups were given an equal volume of distilled water by gavage every day for 7 consecutive days, and the rats were treated on day 14. ELISA was used to measure the serum levels of total bilirubin (TBil), direct bilirubin (DBil), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and creatinine (Cr); spectrophotometry was used to measure the activity of the oxidative stress factors superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in renal tissue; quantitative real- time PCR and Western blotting were used to measure the mRNA and protein expression levels of Nrf2, Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1), and NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1) in renal tissue; immunohistochemistry was used to measure observe the nuclear translocation of Nrf2 protein in renal tissue. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups, and the least significant difference t -test was used for further pairwise comparison within groups. Results Compared with the S group, the O group had significant increases in the levels of TBil, DBil, ALT、GGT, BUN, and Cr, a significant reduction in the activity of SOD, and a significant increase in the level of MDA (all P < 0.05). Compared with the O group, the LY group and the HY group had significant reductions in liver and renal function parameters, a significant increase in the activity of SOD, and a significant reduction in the level of MDA (all P < 0.05). Compared with the S group, the O group had significant reductions in the mRNA and protein expression levels of Nrf2 and NQO1 in renal tissue (all P < 0.05), and compared with the O group, the LY group and the HY group had significant increases in the mRNA and protein expression levels of Nrf2 and NQO1 (all P < 0.05), while there was no significant difference in the protein expression level of Keap1 between groups ( P > 0.05). Compared with the S group, the O group had a significant reduction in the positive rate of Nrf2 in cell nucleus in renal tissue ( P < 0.05), and compared with the O group, the LY group and the HY group had a significant increase in the positive rate of Nrf2 in cell nucleus ( P < 0.05). Conclusion Yinchenhao decoction can effectively alleviate renal injury caused by obstructive jaundice, possibly by upregulating the protein expression of Nrf2 in renal tissue and regulating the nuclear translocation of Nrf2 protein, so as to mediate the protein expression of downstream NQO1, regulate oxidative stress response caused by obstructive jaundice, and thereby alleviate renal injury in rats.
