Objective To compare the analgesia effect and the safety of Flurbiprofen Axetil (FA) and Parecoxib Sodium (PS) after posterior lumbar fusion surgery. Methods 90 patients undergoing internal fixation of lumbar spine randomly assigned to 3 groups:those in Group A(n = 30) received 100 mg of FA; those in Group B (n=30) received 40 mg of PS and those in Group C received saline.The VAS scores of 2, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 h after operation and the dose of tramadol hydrochloride (TH) used and the side effect was recorded respectively. Results Group A and B had significantly better analgesic effect than Group C(P<0.05). Group A and B had lower average dose of TH than Group C (P<0.05). The VAS scores in Group A was lower than that in Group B in 2 h after the surgery. The VAS scores after the surgery showed no significant difference between Group A and B in 6 , 12, 24 h after the surgery. The VAS scores in Group A was higer than that in Group B in 48,72 h after the surgery. Conclusion Both PS and FA can alleviate postoperative pain and have fewer adverse reactions.

Objective To evaluate the outcome of unconstrained shoulder arthroplasty in treatment of se- vere damages of shoulder and proximal humerus.Methods Eleven cases of unconstrained shoulder arthroplasty were carried out in our department from 1999 to 2004.The average age of the 11 patients was 65 years.Nine cases underwent hemi-arthroplasty for their complex fractures of proximal humerus with unstrained protheses and two cases received total shoulder arthroplasty for their shoulder osteoarthritis.Cemented prostheses were used in all the cases. Results Follow-ups averaged 2.3 years.Two cases of four-part fractures reported slight pain and limited external rotation of the shoulder after operation,while there was no pain or loosening of prosthesis in all the other cases who recovered full range of motion.Conclusion Unconstrained shoulder arthroplasty is a satisfactory and safe tech- nique for severe damages of proximal humerus.

Objective To investigate the relationships between the structure ,function of left atrial as well as cardiac biomarkers and left atrial spontaneous echo contrast ( SEC ) in patients with non‐valvular atrial fibrillation ( NVAF ) ,and evaluate its predictive value for left atrial SEC . Methods T hirty‐four control subjects and 80 patients with NVAF were included ,patients with NVAF were divided into positive group ( 30 cases) and negative group ( 50 cases) according to w hether SEC was presented on transesophageal echocardiography ( T EE ) . Clinical and laboratory data were collected ,including medical history ,cardiac troponin I ( cT nI) ,and pro‐brain natriuretic peptide ( pro‐BNP ) ,etc . T hen CHA2 DS2‐VASc scores were calculated .The left atrial appendage width ( W LAA ) ,left atrial appendage depth ( DLAA ) ,left atrial appendage blood flow velocity ( V LAA ) ,left atrial volume index ( LAVI) and other parameters were measured by T EE and transthoracic echocardiography ( T T E) ,and left atrial ejection fraction ( LAEF ) was calculated . T he clinical and T EE parameters were compared between the positive and negative group ,T T E parameters and cardiac biomarkers levels were compared among the three groups ,and ROC curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency . Results ①Compared with those in control group ,the value of LAVI and pro‐BNP were significantly increased and LAEF was significantly decreased in negative group ( all P ＜ 0 .01 ) . ②Compared with those in negative group ,CHA 2 DS2‐VASc scores ,WLAA ,DLAA ,LAVI and pro‐BNP levels in positive group showed a significant increase ( all P ＜0 .01) ,LAEF and VLAA showed a significant reduction ( all P ＜0 .01) . ③cT nI between negative group and control group did not show statisticant difference ( P＞0 .05) ,but presented a significant increase in positive group compared with those in control group and negative group (all P ＜0 .01).T he AUC ,sensitivity and specificity of CHA 2 DS2‐VASc scores for SEC were 0 .71 (95% CI :0 .60 ～ 0 .82 ) ,73 .3% and 62 .0%,respectively .When left atrial structural and functional parameters (LAVI and LAEF ) combined with cardiac biomarkers (cT nI and pro‐BNP ) ,the AUC , sensitivity and specificity for SEC were 0 .90 (95% CI :0 .84 ～ 0 .97 ) ,74 .0% and 100%,respectively ,both enhanced w hen compared with CHA 2 DS2‐VASc scores alone ( P ＜ 0 .01 ).Conclusions Left atrial enlargement ,decreased function and elevated levels of cardiac biomarkers are associated with left atrial SEC in patients with NVAF .CHA2 DS2‐VASc scores can be used for perdicting left atrial SEC ,left atrial structural and functional parameters (LAVI and LAEF) combined with cardiac biomarkers (cT nI and pro‐BNP) provide significant increments in prediction of left atrial SEC .

Objective To evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of one booster dose of inactivated hepatitis A vaccine in young adults.Methods The subjects were selected from participants in the clinical trial of immunogenicity of inactivated and attenuated live hepatitis A vaccine in young adults.Eligible subjects were those who had received one dose of inactivated or attenuated hepatitis A vaccine,could be contacted and were sero-negative before primary vaccination.All qualified subjects were immunized with one booster dose of inactivated hepatitis A vaccine.The blood samples were collected before booster dose vaccination and 28 days after the immunization.Anti-HAV antibody titer ≥20 mIU/ml was considered to be sero-protected against hepatitis A virus.Results The GMCs in the inactivated HAV vaccine group and attenuated live vaccine group before booster dose vaccination were 70.80 mIU/ml and 50.12 mIU/ml,respectively,and the sero-protection rates were 94.7％ and 65.0％,respectively.After the vaccination of the booster dose,the sero-protection rates in both groups were 100.0％,and the GMCs were 2 816.09 mIU/ml and 2 654.55 mIU/ml,respectively.Conclusion The GMCs and sero-protection rates of anti-HAV antibody in young adults declined after three years of the primary vaccination.However,the higher GMC and sero-protection rate were observed in the inactivated vaccine group than in the attenuated live vaccine group.Significant increases of GMC levels were observed in both groups after one booster dose vaccination.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effect and prognosis of percutaneous balloon kyphoplasty (PKP) for diabetic patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures.Methods:A total of 105 patients with diabetes mellitus complicated with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures who received diagnosis and treatment in our hospital from May. 2017 to Feb. 2020, who were followed up to Mar. 2022 were selected as the research subjects, and all were treated with PKP. Time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, incidence of secondary vertebral fracture, anterior height of injured vertebral body, Sagittal kyphosis Cobb angle, VAS score, and ODI index were investigated. The patients were divided into good prognosis group ( n=82) and poor prognosis group ( n=23) according to the presence or absence of secondary vertebral fractures during the follow-up period. Binary Logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors affecting the prognosis. Results:After PKP treatment, the efficiency of all 105 patients was 87.62% and the incidence of secondary vertebral fracture was 21.90%. The operative time was (83.52±16.85) min, the intraoperative blood loss was (32.11±1.52) ml, and the length of hospital stay was (10.62±1.65) d. The height of the anterior edge of the injured vertebra was (24.62±5.16) mm and (24.67±5.03) mm at the last follow-up and 3 months after surgery, respectively, higher than that before surgery ( t=15.21, 15.63, P=0.000). The Cobb angle of sagittal kyphosis was (10.03±1.27) ° and (10.10±1.25) °, respectively, and the VAS score was (3.11±0.52) and (1.00±0.11) points, respectively, 3 months after surgery and at the last follow-up. The ODI indexes were (11.25±2.85) % and (5.32±1.01) %, respectively, lower than those before surgery ( t3 months after surgery=28.84, 18.17, 29.21, tlast follow-up=25.68, 27.49, 42.78, P=0.000). There were significant differences in age, BMD, bone cement leakage, bone cement distribution and use of anti-osteoporosis drugs between the good prognosis group and the poor prognosis group ( t=4.03, 5.22, χ2=12.50, 22.694, 26.22, P=0.000). Logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=1.309, 95%CI=1.134-1.511, P=0.000), BMD ( OR=126.660, 95%CI=13.376-1199.376, P=0.000), bone cement leakage ( OR=4.698, 95%CI=1.306-16.902, P=0.018), dense distribution of bone cement ( OR=9.697, 95%CI=2.679-34.869, P=0.001), no use of anti-osteoporosis drugs ( OR=7.586, 95%CI=2.197-26.193, P=0.001) was an independent risk factor for the prognosis of patients with diabetes complicated with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fracture. Conclusion:PKP has a high rate of excellence in the treatment of diabetes mellitus complicated with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures, but factors such as age, BMD, bone cement leakage, bone cement dense distribution, and no postoperative use of anti-osteoporotic drugs will increase risks of secondary fractures, which in turn affects their prognosis.

Objective: To explore the association between single nucleotide polymorphism rs12632942 in SCN10A exon and oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (OXLIPN) in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients receiving chemotherapy. Methods:Atotal of 319 cases of blood samples from CRC patients receiving chemotherapy regimen with Oxaliplatin (OXL) were collected from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, and Guangzhou Baiyun District Hospital of Chinese Medicine during January 2011 and June 2013. DNAwas routinely extracted, and PCR amplification was performed to analyze the genotype of rs12632942; and OXLIPN of patients was also evaluated. The association between rs12632942 genotype and OXLIPN was analyzed by χ2 test and multivariate logistic regression model. Results: The genotypes of rs12632942 of 319 CRC patients:AAof 134 cases,AG of 156 cases and GG of 29 cases; and the genotype distribution of rs12632942 was in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg equiliberum (P>0.05). χ2 test showed that rs12632942AG+GG genotype was associated with Ⅱ-Ⅳ degree OXLIPN (P<0.01). Multivariate logistic regression model showed that rs12632942 AG + GG genotype was an independent risk factor for Ⅱ-Ⅳ degree OXLIPN（OR=2.044； 95%CI=1.231-3.392; P<0.01） . Conclusion: Colorectal cancer patients with SCN10A exon polymorphism rs12632942AG + GG genotype were susceptible to Ⅱ-Ⅳ degree OXLIPN.
