Objective To investigate MRI features for differentiating borderline from benign mucinous cystadenoma ( MC )of the ovary.Methods Twenty three patients with 23 benign MCs and 19 patients with 20 borderline mucinous cystadenomas (BMC)proven by surgery and pathology underwent MRI,with 23 benign MCs and 20 BMC. MRI features of tumor were evaluated and compared between two groups including location,shape,size,loculation,signal intensity of the fluid,thickness of septa and wall,and vegetations.The findings were correlated with those of pathology.The loculation,the signal intensity of the intracystic content,the thickness of the septation and the wall,and the vegetations between the benign MCs and the BMCs were compared using the Chi-square test.ResultsHomogenous low signal on T1WI and homogenous high signal on T2WI were the main signal patterns of benign MC seen more commonly in benign MC (18/23 and 17/23,respectively) than in BMC (5/20 and 8/20,respectively) (x2 =12.1979,5.0553 ;P <0.05).The honeycomb loculi,high signal on T1 WI,low signal on T2WI,thickened septa or wall ( ≥5 mm),and vegetations ( ≥5 mm) were significantly more common in BMC( 10/20,9/20,8/20,10/20 and 14/20,respectively)than in benign MC(4/23,3/23,1/23,1/23 and 1/23,respectively) (x2 =5.1804,5.4300,8.2163,11.7113 and 20.2990,P < 0.05 ),with the sensitivity and specificity for characterizing BMC of 50.0% and 82.6%,45.0% and 87.0%,40.0% and 95.7%,50.0% and 95.7%,and 70.0% and 95.7%,respectively.When one of honeycomb loculi with low signal on T2WI,thickened septa or wall ( ≥5 mm),and vegetations ( ≥5 mm) were found,the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy for characterizing BMC were 90.0%,91.3% and 90.7% respectively. Conclusion MRI is accurate for demonstrating morphological features of ovarian MC which well correlated to pathological characteristics,and for differentiating BMC from benign MC,thus helpful for making surgery strategy.

BACKGROUNDPatellofemoral osteoarthritis commonly occurs in older people, often resulting in anterior knee pain and severely reduced quality of life. The aim was to examine the effectiveness of arthroscopic patelloplasty and circumpatellar denervation for the treatment of patellofemoral osteoarthritis (PFOA).
METHODSA total of 156 PFOA patients (62 males, 94 females; ages 45-81 years, mean 66 years) treated in our department between September 2012 and March 2013 were involved in this study. Clinical manifestations included recurrent swelling and pain in the knee joint and aggravated pain upon ascending/descending stairs, squatting down, or standing up. PFOA was treated with arthroscopic patelloplasty and circumpatellar denervation. The therapeutic effects before and after surgery were statistically evaluated using Lysholm and Kujala scores. The therapeutic effects were graded by classification of the degree of cartilage defect.
RESULTSA total of 149 cases were successfully followed up for 14.8 months, on average. The incisions healed well, and no complications occurred. After surgery, the average Lysholm score improved from 73.29 to 80.93, and the average Kujala score improved from 68.34 to 76.48. This procedure was highly effective for patients with cartilage defects I-III but not for patients with cartilage defect IV.
CONCLUSIONSFor PFOA patients, this procedure is effective for significantly relieving anterior knee pain, improving knee joint function and quality of life, and deferring arthritic progression.

Objective:To explore the effect of problem-based learning (PBL) combined with case teaching method in the three-year probationary teaching of clinical urology in three-year higher vocational colleges.Methods:A total of 45 students from Class 1, Grade 2015, and 37 students from Class 2, Grade 2016 of Ningxia Medical University were selected as study subjects. They were divided into experimental group and control group. Forty-two students in experimental group were taught with PBL combined with case teaching method. 40 students in control group were taught with traditional clinical probation teaching method. Besides, a questionnaire survey was conducted among two groups of students in the Department of urology.Results:There was no significant difference in the scores of theoretical examination between the experimental group and the control group ( P>0.05). The scores of medical history collection, physical examination, practical skills and total scores were much higher in the experimental group than in the control group. The results of the questionnaire survey showed that the teaching of the experimental group could significantly motivate students' enthusiasm and participation, as well as enhance ability of self-study, information acquisition, innovation, analysis and problem-solving and team consciousness ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The new model of PBL combined with case teaching is helpful in improving students' academic performance, probation effect and comprehensive practical ability in urology internship teaching, which is worth being popularized in clinical teaching.

Objective:To establish a risk prediction model for the occurrence of low 1 min Apgar scores in extremely premature infants (EPIs).Methods:From January 2017 to December 2021, EPIs delivered at our hospital were retrospectively analyzed and randomly assigned into training set group and validation set group in a 7∶3 ratio. 17 clinical indicators were selected as predictive variables and low Apgar scores after birth as outcome variables. Lasso regression and multi-factor logistic regression were used within the training set group to select the final predictors for the final model, and the calibration, distinguishability and clinical decision making curves of the final model were evaluated in the validation set group.Results:A total of 169 EPIs were enrolled, including 117 in the training set group and 52 in the validation set group. 4 indicators including gender, fetal distress, assisted conception and delivery time were selected as the final predictors in the final model. Both the training set group and the validation set group had good calibration curves. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of the prediction model was 0.731, the sensitivity was 72.2%, the specificity was 60.5% and the AUC of the external validation curve was 0.704. The clinical decision making curve showed that the model had a greater benefit in predicting the occurrence of low Apgar score in EPIs within the threshold of 2% to 75%.Conclusions:The clinical prediction model established in this study has good distinguishability, calibration and clinical accessibility and can be used as a reference tool to predict low Apgar scores in EPIs.

Objective:To investigate the methylation status of SDC2, PPP2R5C and ADHFE1 genes in stool and their values in the screening of colorectal cancer and precancerous lesions.Methods:From August 2020 to March 2021, 64 patients with colorectal cancer, 72 patients with adenoma, 33 patients with hyperplastic polyps and 59 healthy people were recruited from Qingdao Central Hospital Affiliated to Qingdao University, and the morning stool samples were collected from the research subjects. The genomic DNA was extracted and modified with sulfite. The methylation status of SDC2, PPP2R5C and ADHFE1 genes were detected by methylation specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP), and the fecal occult blood test (FOBT) was performed. Taking the pathological results as the gold standard, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under the curve (AUC) were used to compare the effect of combined detection of methylation of three genes and FOBT in predicting colorectal cancer and precancerous lesions. R-Studio software was used to construct a nomogram for the prediction of colorectal cancer with combined detection of gene methylation in stool and other clinical features, and the calibration and validation were performed.Results:The positive rates of combined detection of methylation of SDC2, PPP2R5C and ADHFE1 genes in stool were higher than those of FOBT in colorectal cancer+adenoma [74.3% (101/136) vs. 47.1% (64/136), χ2 = 23.20, P = 0.001], colorectal cancer [90.6% (58/64) vs. 70.3% (45/64), χ2 = 8.91, P = 0.003] and adenoma [59.7% (43/72) vs. 26.4% (19/72), χ2 = 14.43, P = 0.002]. There was no significant difference in the positive rates in hyperplastic polyps [21.2% (7/33) vs. 6.1% (2/33), χ2 = 0.12, P = 0.125] and healthy controls [10.2% (6/59) vs. 8.5% (5/59), χ2 = 4.01, P = 1.000]. The combined detection of gene methylation was better than FOBT in the prediction of colorectal cancer + adenoma [AUC: 0.85 (95% CI 0.80-0.91) vs. 0.71 (95% CI 0.64-0.78), P < 0.05], especially in the prediction of adenoma [AUC: 0.82 (95% CI 0.74-0.89) vs 0.64 (95% CI 0.57-0.69), P < 0.001]. The sensitivity and specificity of ADHFE1 gene methylation status in predicting colorectal cancer were high (90.6% and 96.6%). In colorectal cancer patients over 50 years old, the positive rate of combined detection of gene methylation was higher than that of FOBT [90.2% (55/61) vs. 68.9% (42/61), P < 0.05]. The nomogram calibration curve for predicting colorectal cancer constructed based on the combined detection of gene methylation and each clinical feature showed a high degree of concordance between the predicted and observed diagnostic performance of colorectal cancer. Conclusions:The methylation levels of SDC2, PPP2R5C AND ADHFE1 genes in stool are increased in patients with colorectal cancer or adenoma. The combined detection of gene methylation is expected to be a non-invasive method for the screening of colorectal cancer and precancerous lesions.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the potential effective components and mechanism of Achyranthes bidentata in the treatment of osteoporosis (OP). METHODS: The effective components of A. bidentata were retrieved from the TCMSP database, and corresponding targets of them were collected. The targets related to OP were retrieved from DisGeNET database. TBtools 1.0 mapping software was used to draw the Wayne diagram, and screen the intersecting targets of effective components of A. bidentata and disease OP. Cytoscape 3.6.1 software and STRING database were used to construct and analyze the “drug-component- disease-target” network and protein-protein interaction (PPI) network; KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was conducted by using DAVID bioinformatics resource database. RESULTS: A total of 19 effective components were screened from A. bidentata, and there were 32 intersecting targets between effective components and disease OP. In “drug-component-disease-target” network, there were 45 nodes [1 for A. bidentata, 1 for OP, 11 for effective components (8 of the 19 effective components had no corresponding OP target), 32 for intersecting targets] and 119 edges between nodes; quercetin, kaempferol, wogonin, baicalein and palmatine were important effective components. In PPI network, there were 31 nodes (1 of 32 intersecting targets was not associated with other proteins) and 212 edges, among which IL6, ESR1, MAPK1, IL8 and MAPK14 were the core targets of the network. There were 67 KEGG enrichment pathways, including rheumatoid arthritis, hepatitis B, Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, JAK/STAT signaling pathway, NF-κB signaling pathway and so on. CONCLUSIONS: The main potential effective components of A. bidentata in the treatment of OP are quercetin, kaempferol, wogonin, baicalein and palmatine, the mechanism of which may be associated with cell differentiation and apoptosis, metabolism, inflammation reaction, etc. It has multi-component, multi-target and multi-system chara- cteristics.
