BACKGROUND:Percutaneous hol ow screw under X-Ray fluoroscopy has been shown to treat fracture of acetabulum of the pelvis, but the time of internal fixation was long, and the amount of radiation exposure to the patients and physicians was large.
OBJECTIVE:To test the application of the ISO-C3D METHODS:Thirty-one patients with fracture of the acetabulum were treated with percutaneous hol ow screw under a fluoroscopy-based ISO-C computerized navigational system for fracture of acetabulum. 3D computerized navigational system. The interval from injury to operation was 4 to 13 days. Al patients were fol owed up for one year.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The average bleeding volume during operation was only 18 mL, except that the bleeding volume of only one patient, who suffered from the sacroiliacjoint injury and received open reduction and internal fixation, was up to 300 mL. The total number of screws used in the operation was 42, among which 24 were screws for acetabular anterior column fracture and 18 for posterior column fracture. Al screws were implanted once precisely. The average time of internal fixation was 59 minutes, and the mean time for fluoroscopy was 39 seconds. The 31 patients were pain-free one week after the operation and no complication (infection, vascular nerve injury or implant breakage) was noted post-operatively. When the fol ow-up ended, radiography revealed fracture union with satisfactory screw fixation (no screw breakage or loosening). According to Matta functional scoring, results were excellent in 23 cases, good in 8 cases, with an excellent and good rate of 100%. According to Majeed functional scoring, the results were excellent in 22 cases, good in 6 cases and average in 3 cases, with an excellent and good rate of 90%. These results indicated that ISO-C3D computerized navigational system can supply stable internal fixation without an increase of complication.

Objective:To analyze the consistency and correlation of indirect calorimetry (IC) and Harris-Benedict estimation method (H-B) in measuring energy consumption in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), as well as the characteristics of energy metabolism at resting state of SAP patients with different etiologies, and so as to guide the formulation of clinical energy nutrition support program.Methods:From February 1 to December 31, 2019, 61 SAP patients admitted into the intensive care unit of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University were enrolled. Collected relevant data of patients, such as the etiology of SAP, whether mechanical ventilation was needed, as well as the metabolic status. All SAP patients accepted IC test on the first day after admission to intensive care unit. According to the energy consumption measured by IC (hereinafter referred to as IC value) and the energy consumption measured by H-B (hereinafter referred to as H-B value), SAP patients were determined to be in high, normal or low metabolic state. Bland-Altman method and Pearson linear regression were used to analyze the consistency and correlation of the two methods in measuring energy consumption, and the linear equation was fitted. Paired t test was used for statistical analysis. Results:Among the 61 SAP patients, 13 cases were biliary SAP, 30 cases were hyperlipidemic SAP, 6 cases were alcoholic SAP, and 12 cases were SAP of other causes or unknown causes. Nineteen cases needed mechanical ventilation and 42 cases did not need mechanical ventilation. There were 70.5% (43/61) of SAP patients in high metabolic state, 13.1%(8/61) of SAP patients in normal metabolic state, and 16.4% (10/61) of SAP patients in low metabolic state. The IC value in 61 SAP patients was higher than H-B value((8 604.7±367.8) kJ/d vs. (6 491.2±133.7) kJ/d), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=5.95, P<0.001). The IC value in patients with hyperlipidemic, alcoholic and biliary SAP was (8 815.2±537.9), (7 631.2±890.5), and (8 108.0±933.1) kJ/d, respectively, and the H-B value was (6 869.6±204.5), (5 916.8±153.7), and (5 974.2±200.9) kJ/d, respectively. The IC value in patients with biliary or hyperlipidemic SAP were higher than H-B value, and the differences were statistically significant( t=2.29 and 3.38, both P<0.05). The IC value and H-B value in SAP patients with mechanical ventilation and without mechanical ventilation were (10 485.0±741.1) and (6 462.6±222.8) kJ/d, (6 595.1±364.7) and (6 503.2±166.7) kJ/d, respectively. The IC value in SAP patients with mechanical ventilation was higher than H-B value and the IC value in SAP patients without mechanical ventilation, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=4.71 and 5.20, both P<0.001). The consistency analyzed by Bland-Altman method showed that the two methods had obvious biases, and the average bias value was 92.2 kJ/d. The result of Pearson linear regression analysis indicated that there was a linear relationship between two methods ( r=0.44, P<0.001). The linear equation fitted by the univariate regression was Y=1.240 6 X+ 154.42, in which X was the H-B value and Y was the IC value. Conclusions:SAP patients are mostly in a hypermetabolic state in the early stages of the disease. The IC value is higher than H-B value, and it is recommended to use IC to measure energy consumption in SAP patients.

Objective:
To summarize the clinical effect of using the composite flap of microtic cartilage and soft tissue in tragus reconstruction to correct preauricular depression.
Methods:
From January 2015 to November 2016, we corrected preauricular depression of 523 patients with congenital microtia that were treated with tragus reconstruction by using the composite flap of residual ear cartilage and soft tissue.
Results:
All the composite flap of residual ear cartilage and soft tissue were transplanted successfully. No blood circulation disorder and significant contracture occurred. All patients were followed up for 6-14 months with an average of 10 months. The reconstructed tragus looked projective and the preauricular depression was corrected, demonstrating a similar looking to the healthy side. The patients were satisfied with the results.
Conclusions
The residual ear tissue could form the composite flap of residual ear cartilage and tissue. Using the composite flap to fill the preauricular depression was effective, which was not easily absorbed. The residual ear tissue is the best resource for filling the preauricular depression. It should not be discarded in ear reconstructive surgery, but reserved for the next operation for tragus reconstruction.

Objectives:
To explore the differences in signal pathway and gene expression related to the pathogenesis of congenital microtia by the in-depth analysis of DNA methylation profiling of auricular chondrocytes from congenital microtia patients.
Methods:
Genome wide methylation profile of congenital microtia was obtained by MeDIP chip technology, and analyzed by Gene ontology (GO) and Pathway analysis. The gene expression levels of Wnt1 and Wnt11 were evaluated by Real-time PCR in the auricular cartilage from the healthy side and affected side of the congenital microtia patients , and healthy controls.
Results:
The GO and Pathway assay showed that Wnt signal pathway was enriched in differential methylated levels. The Wnt1 and Wnt11 genes were with higher methylation in the promoter region and CpG islands in healthy control group than that in microtia group, in addition the methylation level in the affected side auricular cartilage was lower than that in the healthy side. There was no difference in Wnt1 and Wnt11 gene expression in microtia patients and healthy controls. The higher Wnt11 gene expression was detected in the affected side residual cartilage tissues than in the healthy side cartilage tissues of the same congenital microtia patient.
Conclusions
The over expression of Wnt11 during embryonic development might be associated with the pathogenesis of congenital microtia. The mechanism of the difference in methylation levles of Wnt11 affecting pathogenesis of congenital microtia needs further research.

PURPOSE: The significance of neuroendocrine differentiation (NED) in gastric carcinoma (GC) is controversial, leading to ambiguous concepts in traditional classifications. This study aimed to determine the prognostic threshold of meaningful NED in GC and clarify its unclear features in existing classifications. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Immunohistochemical staining for synaptophysin, chromogranin A, and neural cell adhesion molecule was performed for 945 GC specimens. Survival analysis was performed using the log-rank test and univariate/multivariate models with percentages of NED (PNED) and demographic and clinicopathological parameters. RESULTS: In total, 275 (29.1%) cases were immunoreactive to at least 1 neuroendocrine (NE) marker. GC-NED was more common in the upper third of the stomach. PNED, and Borrmann's classification and tumor, lymph node, metastasis stages were independent prognostic factors. The cutoff PNED was 10%, beyond which patients had significantly worse outcomes, although the risk did not increase with higher PNED. Tumors with ≥10% NED tended to manifest as Borrmann type III lesion with mixed/diffuse morphology and poorer histological differentiation; the NE components in this population mainly grew in insulae/nests, which differed from the predominant growth pattern (glandular/acinar) in GC with <10% NED. CONCLUSIONS: GC with ≥10% NED should be classified as a distinct subtype because of its worse prognosis, and more attention should be paid to the necessity of additional therapeutics for NE components.

Objective: This study aimed to explore the gender differences in wishes and feelings regarding end-of-life care among Japanese elderly people requiring home care services.Patient/Materials and Methods: This study was a secondary analysis of the qualitative data previously compiled from a total of 102 elderly people living at home. The data was retrospectively collected from the participants’ nursing records, which included a designated advance care planning (ACP) form completed between January and July 2015. Out of the 102 participants, 86 men and women who were either living alone or with a spouse were selected for the present analysis. We reviewed the participants’ ACP forms based on which of the sentiments on the following checklist were expressed: anxiety about the future, abandonment of control, clinging to current daily life, inadequate support from spouse, and a tendency to delegate decision-making.Results: The most commonly expressed feeling was abandonment of control, among both men and women. Among elderly people living alone, women were more likely to want to be surrounded by good, caring people when approaching the end of their lives. Among elderly people living with a spouse, women were more likely to want to delegate decision-making to others.Conclusion: Our results pointed to a gender difference in the attitudes of elderly people toward interactions with the people surrounding them during the end-of-life decision-making process. In order to provide better overall care, health care professionals must come to realize the importance of this gender difference, as it has an impact on the ACP choices made by elderly people living in the community.
