Objective:To characterize tibial plateau fractures using a computed-tomography-based "four-column and nine-segment" classification.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 698 adult patients with tibial plateau fracture (704 knees) who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedics, The Affiliated People's Hospital of Jiangsu University from December 2007 to May 2018. They were 377 males and 321 females with an average age of 51.6 years. The left knee was affected in 371 cases (53.2%), the right knee in 321 cases (46.0%) and bilateral knees in 6 cases (0.9%). According to the differentiated morphological characteristics, the tibial plateau and proximal fibula were divided into 4 columns, which were subdivided into 9 segments. Tibial plateau injury index (TPII) was innovatively introduced to represent the extent of injury. Fracture mapping was retrospectively analyzed according to the "four-column and nine-segment" classification based on the CT imaging.Results:The rates of one-column, two-column, three-column and four-column injuries were 30.5% (215/704), 31.5% (222/704), 28.0% (197/704), and 9.9% (70/704), respectively. On average, 2.2 columns ± 1.0 columns and 3.6 segments ± 2.1 segments were affected in each case. The mean TPII was 5.7±3.0. The rates of mild, moderate and severe comminuted fractures were 50.0% (352/704), 37.5% (264/704), and 12.5% (88/704). The columns most frequently affected were the lateral column (572, 81.3%) and the intermedial column (524, 74.4%) while the less frequently involved ones the medial column (219, 31.1%) and the fibular column (218, 31.0%). The sequence of the segments affected was the posterolateral segment (465, 66.1%), the anterolateral segment (453, 64.3%), the posteromedian segment (379, 53.8%) and the tubercle segment (85, 12.1%).Conclusions:The novel "four-column and nine-segment" classification may be a beneficial system for clinical diagnosis, statistical analysis and prognostic judgment of tibial plateau fractures.

Objective:To explore the differences of fecal calprotectin (FC), C-reactive protein (CRP), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) between colon and small intestinal Crohn′s disease, and their predictive values for disease activity and mucosal healing in patients with small intestinal Crohn′s disease.Methods:From January 2017 to January 2023, 64 patients with Crohn′s disease who underwent capsule endoscopy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University were enrolled, among them 28 patients had only small intestinal lesions (small intestine group) and 36 patients had lesions involving both small intestine and colon or only colon involvement (ileocolon group). The FC, CRP, and ESR levels of the two groups were detected and compared 15 days before capsule endoscopy examination. Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used for statistical analysis. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used to evaluate the predictive value of FC, CRP, and ESR for disease activity and mucosal healing in patients with small intestinal Crohn′s disease.Results:The FC, CRP, and ESR levels of the small intestine group during the active phase of the disease were 1 689.00 μg/g (727.75 μg/g, 1 800.00 μg/g), 5.67 mg/L (1.00 mg/L, 17.01 mg/L), and 4.50 mm/1 h (2.00 mm/1 h, 11.00 mm/1 h), respectively; while FC, CRP, and ESR levels during the mucosal healing phase were 112.00 μg/g (46.50 μg/g, 130.50 μg/g), 1.00 mg/L (1.00 mg/L, 1.62 mg/L), and 2.00 mm/1 h (2.00 mm/1 h, 5.50 mm/1 h), respectively. The FC, CRP, and ESR levels of the ileocolon group during the active phase of the disease were 1 800.00 μg/g (895.50 μg/g, 1 800.00 μg/g), 4.94 mg/L (3.10 mg/L, 14.80 mg/L), and 10.00 mm/1 h (2.00 mm/1 h, 27.75 mm/1 h), respectively, while FC, CRP, and ESR levels during the mucosal healing phase were 66.00 μg/g (32.50 μg/g, 97.50 μg/g), 1.00 mg/L (1.00 mg/L, 1.55 mg/L), and 2.00 mm/1 h (2.00 mm/1 h, 4.50 mm/1 h), respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in FC, CRP, and ESR between the small intestine group and the ileocolon group during the active phase of the disease and mucosal healing phase (all P> 0.05). In the small intestine group, the levels of FC and CRP of patients during the active phase of the disease were 1 173.00 μg/g (312.00 μg/g, 1 800.00 μg/g) and 2.10 mg/1 L (1.00 mg/L, 16.00 mg/L), which were both higher than those of patients during the mucosal healing phase (112.00 μg/g (46.50 μg/g, 130.50 μg/g) and 1.00 mg/L (1.00 mg/L, 1.62 mg/L)), and the differences were statistically significant ( Z=-4.35 and-2.67, P<0.001 and =0.008). In the small intestine group, the level of ESR of patients during the active phase of the disease was 4.00 mm/1 h (2.00 mm/1 h, 16.00 mm/1 h), and there was no significant difference compared with that of patients during the mucosal healing phase (2.00 mm/1 h (2.00 mm/1 h, 5.50 mm/1 h)) ( P>0.05). When the cut-off level of FC was 188.50 μg/g, the sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve for predicting disease activity in patients with small intestinal Crohn′s disease was 93.3%, 100.0%, and 0.964, respectively. When the cut-off value of CRP was 3.12 mg/L, the sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve for predicting disease activity in patients with small intestinal Crohn′s disease was 46.7%, 92.3%, and 0.744, respectively. When the cut-off level of ESR was 10.00 mm/1 h, the sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve for predicting disease activity in patients with small intestinal Crohn′s disease was 33.3%, 100.0%, and 0.654, respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in the area under the curve between the combinations of FC and CRP, FC and ESR, FC, CRP and ESR, and FC alone for predicting disease activity in patients with small intestinal Crohn′s disease (0.964, 0.959, and 0.959 vs. 0.964, all P> 0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in the area under the curve between the combination of CRP and ESR and FC alone in predicting disease activity in patients with small intestinal Crohn′s disease (0.708 vs. 0.964, Z=-2.57, P=0.010). Conclusions:There are no statistically significant differences in FC, CRP, and ESR between colon and small intestinal Crohn′s disease. FC has a high predictive value for disease activity and mucosal healing in patients with small intestinal Crohn′s disease and has certain clinical application value.

In order to understand the difference of contents of coelonin,batatasin Ⅲ and 3'-O-methylbatatasin Ⅲ in 60 different sources of Bletilla striata planted under the same conditions. UPLC method was used and the analysis was performed on a Waters ACQUITY UPLC BEH C18 column( 2. 1 mm×100 mm,1. 7 μm),eluted with acetonitril-0. 1% formic acid solution by gradient. The flow rate was 0. 208 m L·min-1,the detection wavelength was 270 nm,the column temperature was 35 ℃ and the injection volume was 4μL. Under the above chromatographic conditions,the three components can be separated well with good linearity in the range of 0. 156-5. 000 mg·L-1. The average contents of coelonin,batatasin Ⅲ and 3'-O-methylbatatasin Ⅲ were( 0. 116 ± 0. 071) %,( 0. 386 ±0. 185) % and( 0. 086±0. 034) %,respectively. After planting for two years under the same conditions,there was no significant difference in chemical composition among different sources and varieties,but the contents of the three components had some regional differences,which indicated that the western region was higher than the eastern region,while the contents of coelonin and batatasin Ⅲ in B.sinensis were slightly higher than those in B. striata. The chromatographic method above is simple,stable and reproducible,and can be used for quantitative analysis of three components. The content analysis of different sources of B. striata can provide reference for future B. striata breeding and quality control.

OBJECTIVETo compare clinical results of Sanders II-IV fractures of calcaneus treated by self-setting calcium phosphate cement and allograft with locking reconstruction bone plate internal fixation.
METHODSFrom March 2012 to December 2015, 48 patients with Sanders II-IV fractures of calcaneus were treated by open reduction and internal fixation through L-shape incision, bone grafting were performed on reserved bone defect of calcaneal fracture. The patients were divided into self-setting calcium phosphate cement and allograft group according to different materials. Twenty-eight patients in self-setting calcium phosphate cement group, including 23 males and 5 females aged from 22 to 52 years old with an average of (34.46±7.33) years old; 8 cases were type II, 11 cases were type III and 7 cases were type IV according to Sanders classification. Twenty patients in allograft group, including 17 males and 3 females aged from 24 to 55 years old with an average of(36.40±7.93) years old; 6 cases were type II, 7 cases were type III and 9 cases were type IV according to Sanders classification. Postoperative wound complications, Böhler angle before and after operation and 12 months, Maryland functional score were evaluated.
RESULTSAll patients obtained bone union, and were followed up from 12 to 42 months with an average of 25 months. There were no statistical significance in Böhler angle and Manyland score before and after operation and 12 months between two groups. Five patients occurred wound complications in allograft group and 2 cases occurred wound complications in self-setting calcium phosphate cement and allograft group.
CONCLUSIONSBoth of open reduction bone grafting and reconstructive plate internal fixation have good effective results for calcaneal fracture. Compared with allograft, self-setting calcium phosphate cement, which has no rejection response and less complications, has equal effects for calcaneal fracture and deserves to be popularized.

Objective: To analyze the willingness of receiving influenza vaccine and its influencing factors among health care workers (HCWs) in Yangtze River Delta region from 2020 to 2021. Methods: Convenient sampling method was adopted. From July 2020 to March 2021, 76 hospitals in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui and Shanghai provinces were selected according to the hospital level and job position, and a questionnaire survey was conducted on the willingness of receiving influenza vaccination. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of vaccination intention. Results: A total of 1 332 HCWs were investigated, with a ratio of male to female about 1∶3.2, and the length of working years was (15.07±9.75) years. A total of 614 HCWs had received influenza vaccine in 2019, with a vaccination rate of 46.09%. About 63.21% (842/1 332) of HCWs were willing to be vaccinated with influenza vaccine. The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that the willingness of receiving influenza vaccine among HCWs in primary hospitals was higher than that in secondary hospitals (OR=0.573) and tertiary hospitals (OR=0.357). The willingness of HCWs who had received influenza vaccine in 2019 was higher than that of HCWs who had not received influenza vaccine (OR=0.226) and had unknown history of influenza vaccination (OR=0.228). The willingness of HCWs in departments of prevention, health care and infection was higher than that in departments of pre-examination, outpatient, emergency, pediatrics and respiratory (OR=1.670). Conclusion: The willingness of receiving influenza vaccination among HCWs in Yangtze River Delta region is high, but it is still lower than that in developed countries. It is necessary to strengthen publicity and education to improve the influenza immunization level of HCWs.

OBJECTIVE:
To study the effectiveness and feasibility of cryogenic disinfectants in different cold scenarios and analyze the key points of on-site cryogenic disinfection.
METHODS:
Qingdao and Suifenhe were selected as application sites for the manual or mechanical spraying of cryogenic disinfectants. The same amount of disinfectant (3,000 mg/L) was applied on cold chain food packaging, cold chain containers, transport vehicles, alpine environments, and article surfaces. The killing log value of the cryogenic disinfectant against the indicator microorganisms ( Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli) was used to evaluate the on-site disinfection effect.
RESULTS:
When using 3,000 mg/L with an action time of 10 min on the ground in alpine regions, the surface of frozen items, cold-chain containers, and cold chain food packaging in supermarkets, all external surfaces were successfully disinfected, with a pass rate of 100%. The disinfection pass rates for cold chain food packaging and cold chain transport vehicles of centralized supervised warehouses and food processing enterprises were 12.5% (15/120), 81.67% (49/60), and 93.33% (14/15), respectively; yet, the surfaces were not fully sprayed.
CONCLUSION
Cryogenic disinfectants are effective in disinfecting alpine environments and the outer packaging of frozen items. The application of cryogenic disinfectants should be regulated to ensure that they cover all surfaces of the disinfected object, thus ensuring effective cryogenic disinfection.

Objective: To investigate the feasibility, efficacy and safety of transbrachial access for interventional therapy on prosthetic paravalvular leak (PVL) post surgical valve replacement. Methods: This is a retrospective study. Patients with PVL after surgical valve replacement who underwent interventional therapy via the brachial artery approach in Structural heart disease center of Fuwai hospital between August 2017 and October 2019, were included. All patients underwent puncture of the brachial artery under local anesthesia, angiography and transcatheter closure procedure were performed. The procedure was performed under transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) guidance. Baseline data, operation data and pre-and post-operative TTE examination results were collected and analyzed. Postoperative complications were recorded and operational adverse events were obtained during follow up in the outpatient department after discharge. The operation success rate was calculated, which was defined as the degree of perivalvular regurgitation decrease by 1 grade and above according to TTE without interfering the valve movement and coronary artery blood flow within 30 days after occluder placement. Results: A total of 10 patients were enrolled in this study, the mean age was (57.5±14.6) years, and 6 patients were males. There were 7 cases with aortic PVL, and 3 cases with mitral PVL. Except for one patient who was converted to the femoral vein-transseptal approach, the other 9 patients were successfully implanted with the devices via the brachial artery approach. The operation time was (103.3±34.0) minutes, and there was no need for rigorous bed rest after the operation. The median hospital stay was 7.5 (3.0, 9.8) days. The operation success rate was 9/10 via the brachial artery approach. The differences in the degree of perivalvular regurgitation, New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification, left ventricular end diastolic diameter and left atrial diameter before and after operation were statistically significant (all P<0.05). One case developed new hemolysis with renal insufficiency on the second day after procedure and discharged after successful dialysis. Another case experienced complication of brachial artery pseudoaneurysm after procedure and discharged after successful treatment with thrombin injection. The mean follow-up time was (14.3±7.9) months. During the follow-up, NYHA classification remained as Ⅰ/Ⅱ in 9 patients, no operational adverse events were observed. Conclusions: Transbrachial access for interventional therapy on PVL post surgical valve replacement is a feasible, effective, and safe procedure. It has the advantages of simplifying the operation process and reducing postoperative bed rest time.
