Objective To evaluate the results of less invasive surgical treatment of high energy tibial plateau fracture, which involves limited open reduction, percutaneous screw fixation and Hybrid external fixation. Methods From 1999 to 2002, 12 cases of high energy tibial plateau fracture were treated with Hybrid external fixation. They were 8 males and 4 females. According to Schatzker classification, there were 9 cases of Type Ⅴand 3 cases of Type Ⅵin the group. The average age of the patients was 39.3 years old (ranging from 27 to 48). Results All were followed up for an average of 15 months (ranging from 6 to 27). All the fractures got united, with an average healing time of 3.2 months. All patients achieved 0 to 5 degrees of extension and more than 100 degrees of flexion. The patients had an average knee score of 88.7 and an average functional score of 85.2(Knee Society clinical rating system). 1 case had infection of pin holes, and 2 knees had Grade 2 arthrosis at radiographic check up two years after the operation. Conclusion Hybrid external fixation combined with limited open reduction is appropriate for treatment of the complex tibial fractures, especially those with a poor soft tissue envelope.

Objective To evaluate the effects of treatment for the distal radial osteoporotic fractures in elder patients with Volar Locking Compression Plating (LCP)fixation. Methods 30 old patients who suffered from the severe osteoporotic distal radial fractures were treated with LCP. In this group all the fractures were more severe than type 2B according to Melone classification. The results of treatment were evaluated by comparing pre and post operative functions and X rays of involved wrists. Results 26 of the 30 patients experienced no wrist pain and were satisfied with the functions of the suffered wrists in their daily postoperative activities. 2 patients still felt wrist pain and needed to take some pain killers and other 2 experienced mild finger movement limitations. These data were improved postoperatively to the average palmar tilt of 3.38 degrees, radial inclination of 18.9 degrees and the radial length 0.9cm longer between the ulnar head and the tip of the radial styloid. The radial length was found 0.2 mm shorter in 2 cases in the latest follow up than that measured before. No severe complications were found in this group. Conclusion For the unstable distal radial osteoporotic fractures in the elderly patients, Volar Locking Compression plating (LCP)fixation is one of the effective treatments, because this procedure can restore and sustain the distal radial length and smooth articular surface after the fracture reduction.

Objective Unstable intertrochanteric hip fractures are characterized by comminution of the posteromedial cortex and a fragment of variable size containing the lesser trochanter. This paper is to discuss whether it is necessary to perform reduction and fixation for this fragment. Methods 67 cases of intertrochanteric fractures were treated by dynamic hip screw (DHS) fixation between March 2001 and September 2002 and followed up for a minimum of 1 year. Their treatment results were retrospectively analyzed. Results No nonunion, coxa vara or failure of internal fixation occurred in all these patients. Conclusion If DHS provides stability, screw fixation of the lesser trochanteric fragment is unnecessary.

【Objective】 To study the characteristics of HIV infection among voluntary blood donors in Shijiazhuang from 2011 to 2021, so as to provide reference for decision making in the control of HIV for blood centers. 【Methods】 The confirmatory results of HIV reactive samples in initial screening among voluntary blood donors from 2011 to 2021 in our center were statistical analyzed. 【Results】 A total of 2 008 299 samples from 1 667 315 blood donors were detected, among which 3 217 samples were HIV reactive and 234 were confirmed positive, with the positive rate at 11.65/100 000 and the prevalence of 14.03/100 000. The prevalence in men was higher than that in women (16.52/100 000 vs 1.39/100 000), in first-time blood donors higher than that in repeated donors (17.27/100 000 vs 8.12/100 000), in whole blood donors higher than that in plateletpheresis donors (12.01/100 000 vs 8.41/100 000), and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The male homosexual transmission was the main routes of transmission, accounting for 62.39% (146/234). And 72% of double-reagent reactive samples were confirmed positive. Four samples were screened in the serological window period and 6 samples were from HIV positive confirmed donors. 【Conclusion】 The HIV prevalence among voluntary blood donors in Shijiazhuang was low. A certain percentage of repeated blood donors got newly infected. NAT could shorten the detection window period of HIV. Since some confirmed positive samples had not been detected out by NAT, publicity and education should be strengthened to reduce the probability of infected or high-risk groups to participate in blood donation.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of daratumumab in relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).Methods:The efficacy and adverse events (AEs) of daratumumab based regimens were retrospectively analyzed in 37 patients with RRMM from Peking University People′s Hospital, Beijing Hospital and Fu Xing Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University in China. The deadline for inclusion was December, 2019.Results:Among the 37 patients, 35 patients were available for response evaluation. The overall response rate (ORR) was 68.6%, which was better in patients receiving 16 mg/kg daratumumab than in those with fixed doses of 800 mg daratumumab [ORR: 78.3%(18/23) vs. 40.0%(4/10)]. The percentage of infusion related reactions of daratumumab was 27.0%(10/37). The most common hematological AEs were lymphocytopenia and thrombocytopenia, with the incidences of grade 3 or more severe 59.5%(22/37) and 43.2%(16/37) respectively. Pulmonary infections(37.8%, 14/37) were the most common non-hematological AEs. One patient with positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and two patients dependent on dialysis were safely treated with daratumumab.Conclusion:Daratumumab is highly effective in relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. Adverse reactions are mild and well tolerable.

Tolerogenic dendritic cells (tolDCs) facilitate the suppression of autoimmune responses by differentiating regulatory T cells (Treg). The dysfunction of immunotolerance results in the development of autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). As multipotent progenitor cells, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), can regulate dendritic cells (DCs) to restore their immunosuppressive function and prevent disease development. However, the underlying mechanisms of MSCs in regulating DCs still need to be better defined. Simultaneously, the delivery system for MSCs also influences their function. Herein, MSCs are encapsulated in alginate hydrogel to improve cell survival and retention in situ, maximizing efficacy in vivo. The three-dimensional co-culture of encapsulated MSCs with DCs demonstrates that MSCs can inhibit the maturation of DCs and the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines. In the collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mice model, alginate hydrogel encapsulated MSCs induce a significantly higher expression of CD39+CD73+ on MSCs. These enzymes hydrolyze ATP to adenosine and activate A2A/2B receptors on immature DCs, further promoting the phenotypic transformation of DCs to tolDCs and regulating naïve T cells to Tregs. Therefore, encapsulated MSCs obviously alleviate the inflammatory response and prevent CIA progression. This finding clarifies the mechanism of MSCs-DCs crosstalk in eliciting the immunosuppression effect and provides insights into hydrogel-promoted stem cell therapy for autoimmune diseases.
