Objective: To investigate the trends in incidence and mortality of thyroid cancer in cancer registration areas of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from 2016 to 2020 and its epidemiological status in 2020, so as to provide the basis for improving prevention and control measures for thyroid cancer. Methods: The data of thyroid cancer incidence and mortality from 2016 to 2020 in four cancer registration areas of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were collected through the Tumor Registry. The crude incidence and crude mortality were calculated. The Chinese population-standardized rate and world population-standardized rate were calculated using the age structure of the standard population from the Fifth National Population Census in 2000 and Segi's world standard population. The incidence and mortality characteristics of thyroid cancer in different genders and ages in 2020 were described. The trends in the Chinese population-standardized incidence and mortality of thyroid cancer in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous from 2016 to 2020 were assessed using the average annual percent change (AAPC). Results: In 2020, the crude, Chinese population-standardized and world population-standardized incidences of thyroid cancer in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were 32.91/100 000, 26.99/100 000, and 25.53/100 000, respectively. The crude, Chinese population-standardized and world population-standardized mortalities of thyroid cancer were 1.25/100 000, 0.96/100 000, and 0.98/100 000, respectively. The Chinese population-standardized incidence and mortality of thyroid cancer in females were 2.44 times and 2.20 times those in males, respectively. The crude incidence of thyroid cancer was increased after age of twenty years, with a peak at age of 55 to 60 years (76.73/100 000) before rapidly declining. In contrast, the crude mortality remained low across all age groups, with the highest rate observed at age of 70 to 75 years (13.70/100 000). From 2016 to 2020, the Chinese population-standardized incidence and mortality of thyroid cancer showed no significant changes (both P>0.05). Conclusions From 2016 to 2020, the trends in incidence and mortality of thyroid cancer in cancer registration areas of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were stable. The disease burden of thyroid cancer was higher in females than in males. The crude incidence first rised and then declined with age, peaks at age of 55-<60 years.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), D-dimer, residual lipoprotein cholesterol (RLP-C) levels and the occurrence and severity of acute myocardial infarction in young adults.Methods:A total of 96 young patients with acute myocardial infarction who visited the First People′s Hospital of Kashgar from June 2020 to June 2022 were retrospectively selected as the observation group, and 100 healthy volunteers who underwent physical examinations at our hospital during the same period were selected as the control group. The serum NLR, D-dimer, and RLP-C levels of the two groups of patients were compared. Coronary angiography was performed on the patients, and the observation group patients were divided into mild stenosis, moderate stenosis, and severe stenosis subgroups based on their Gensini scores. The serum NLR, D-dimer, and RLP-C levels of patients in different subgroups were recorded and compared. Pearson correlation analysis was used to determine the correlation between serum NLR, D-dimer, and RLP-C levels and patients′ Gensini scores. The diagnostic value of NLR, D-dimer, and RLP-C levels in young patients with acute myocardial infarction and severe coronary artery stenosis was explored using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.Results:The levels of NLR, D-dimer, and RLP-C in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The ROC curve analysis results showed that the area under the curve (AUC) for diagnosing acute myocardial infarction in young patients with NLR, D-dimer, and RLP-C were 0.942, 0.865, and 0.970, respectively (all P<0.05). The levels of NLR, D-dimer, and RLP-C in patients with severe stenosis were higher than those in patients with mild to moderate stenosis (all P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the levels of NLR, D-dimer, RLP-C in young patients with acute myocardial infarction were positively correlated with Gensini score ( r=0.806, 0.843, 0.851, all P<0.001). The ROC curve analysis results showed that the AUC values of NLR, D-dimer, and RLP-C levels for diagnosing severe coronary artery stenosis in young patients with acute myocardial infarction were 0.915, 0.874, and 0.922, respectively (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The levels of NLR, D-dimer, and RLP-C are elevated in young patients with acute myocardial infarction, and are positively correlated with the severity of the disease. Clinical attention should be closely monitored.

Objective:To investigates the clinical efficacy of the trabecular metal acetabular revision system (TMARS) in one-stage reconstruction of acetabular deficiencies associated with periprosthetic joint infection (PJI).Methods:This is a retrospective case series study,including the data of 59 patients with PJI underwent acetabular defect reconstruction by TMARS during one-stage revisions in the Department of Orthopaedics, the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2013 to December 2021. There were 32 males and 27 females, aged (59.5±14.6) years (range: 26 to 84 years). Among them, 29 cases used tantalum cups, 13 cases used tantalum cups and tantalum reinforcing blocks, 9 cases used cup-cage, and 8 cases used multi-cup reconstruction techniques. The surgery procedure, Harris Hip score (HHS), recovery of the hip rotation center, implant survival rate, postoperative reinfection rate, and complications were recorded. Data were compared using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test.Results:All of the 59 patients underwent the operations successfully. Operation time was (188.9±48.4) minutes (range: 110 to 340 minutes), and intraoperative bleeding volume was ( M(IQR)) 1 000(400)ml (range: 600 to 1 800 ml). After a postoperative follow-up of 5.1 (2.6) years (range: 2.0 to 10.5 years), the prosthesis survival rate was 94.9% (56/59). Recurrence of infection occurred in 3 cases (5.1%), aseptic loosening in 1case(1.7%), and hip dislocation in 4 cases (6.8%). At the last follow-up, HHS improved significantly(84 (12) vs. 44 (9), Z=-6.671, P<0.01), and the center of rotation of the hips were recovered in all cases. Conclusions:In one-stage revision surgeries aimed at reconstructing acetabular defects, utilizing the TMARS can provide stable initial fixation, restore a more natural center of rotation, significantly enhance early postoperative hip joint function, and reduce the likelihood of infection recurrence. This approach stands as a reliable choice for addressing acetabular defects during revision surgeries for infected hip joints.
