Objective:To summarize the CT features of ankle fracture and to analyze the relationship between the CT images and the most commonly used ankle fracture classification.Methods: With 369 cases of adult ankle fractures analyzed retrospectively,the CT images 1 cm above the ankle joint and its characteristics,the Danis-Weber classification of ankle fracture were studied,and so was the relationship between CT images and the fracture classification.Results: There were 8 forms of CT images.With a,b,and c referred to the fibular fracture,posterior malleolar fracture and interosseous tibiofibular ligament (IOL) rupture respectively.369 CT imges had 40 cases of 0 degree injury (fibula,posterior malleolus,IOL all intact);60 cases of Ⅰa degree injury (fibular fracture,posterior malleolus and IOL intact),3 cases of Ⅰb degree injury (fibula intact,posterior malleolus fracture,IOL intact),26 cases of Ⅰc degree injury (fibula and posterior malleolus intact,IOL rupture);163 cases of Ⅱab degree injury (fibula and posterior malleolus fractures,IOL intact),6 cases of Ⅱac degree injury (fibular fracture,posterior malleolus intact,IOL rupture),61 cases of Ⅱbc degree injury (fibula intact,posterior malleollar fracture,IOL rupture);10 cases of Ⅲ degree injury (fibular fracture,posterior malleollar fracture and IOL rupture).According to the Danis-Weber classification,there were 18 cases of type A,238 cases of type B,94 cases of type C,and 19 cases without fibular fracture.The prevalence of IOL rupture were 0,5.9％,and 88.3％ in types A,B,and C respectively.There was a correlation between the CT image and Danis-Weber classification,the incidence of IOL rupture was changed with the severity of Danis-Weber classification,and the difference was statistically significant after the rank correlation test (Spearman R=0.781,P<0.001).IOL rupture not determined by the fracture classification was found with the CT images and the incidence was 5.9％.Conclusion: Cross-sectional CT images 1 cm above the ankle joint can clearly determine the IOL injury pre-operatively with a good correlation with the Danis-Weber fracture classification,IOL rupture unrecognized with the fracture classification can also be noticed with the CT image.

Objective To investigate the cancer death and distribution characteristics of residents in Cixian County. Methods In accordance with the norms of cancer registration, cancer death data from 2013 to 2017 in Cixian were collected and analyzed, and the crude cancer death rate, age-standardized mortality rates by the Chinese standard population (ASMRC), age-standardized mortality rates by the global standard population (ASMRW). Results From January 1st, 2013, to December 31st, 2017, 6 490 cases of cancer death were recorded. The average annual crude mortality rate was 202.88/100 000, ASMRC was 186.49/100 000, and the ASMRW was 189.02/100 000. The top 10 male mortality cancers were esophageal cancer, stomach cancer, trachea, bronchus and lung cancer, liver cancer, rectal cancer, cerebral nervous system cancer, colon cancer, leukemia, pancreatic cancer, and bladder cancer in order. The top 10 female mortality cancers were esophageal cancer, trachea, bronchus and lung cancer, stomach cancer, liver cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, colon cancer, brain, nervous system cancer, rectal cancer, and ovarian cancer. The age of death increased considerably from the age of 40 years. It increased with the increase in age and reached the peak at the age of 85 years. Conclusion Upper gastrointestinal cancer and lung cancer were the main cancers that threatened the residents of Cixian County from 2013 to 2017. Screening and comprehensive prevention of high-risk groups are still the main targets of cancer prevention and control.

Osteocytes are the most abundant and long-lived cells in bone,serving as primary regulators of bone remodeling.Besides playing critical roles in endocrine regulation and calcium-phosphate metabolism,osteocytes are primary responders to mechanical stimuli,perceiving and responding to these stimuli directly and indirectly.The process of mechanotransduction in osteocytes is a complex and finely tuned regulation involving interactions between the cell and its surrounding environment,neighboring cells,and various mechanosensors within the cells with distinct functions.The known major mechanosensors in osteocytes include primary cilia,Piezo ion channels,integrins,extracellular matrix,and connexin-based intercellular junctions.These mechanosensors play crucial roles in osteocytes,perceiving and transducing mechanical signals to regulate bone homeostasis.This review aims to provide a systematic introduction to these five mechanosensors,offering new perspectives and insights into understanding how osteocytes respond to mechanical stimuli and maintain bone tissue homeostasis.
