Objective An experiment study on the femoral head plastic operation to prevent and treat aseptic necrosis of the femoral head. Methods 60 Chinese white rabbits were equally random divided into 4 groups. The four groups except A group were made a globose defect and filled with 95% alcohol tampon for 30 minutes. The B group was natural repair group. The C group was filled with bone cement after being made defect. The D group was filled with bone cement added barium sulfate agent after being made defect. After 12 weeks, all rabbits in four groups were killed. The specimens were random divided into two parts. The articular cartilage was observed and measured immediately. The other specimen was determined with histological examination and extreme anti-pressure rigidity test . Result The femoral heads of bone cement group and the femoral heads of contrast agent bone cement group kept their outline all the time through the articular cartilage observation. After 12 weeks the cartilage thickness of natural repair group (511.74 ± 69.00) was thinner than the other three groups [ control group ( A group ) (511.74 ± 69 00 );Bone cement group ( C group) (468. 36 ± 82. 99 ); Bone cement group contrast agent ( D group ) ( 515.61 ±64. 65 ) ], and it had significant difference ( P < 0. 05, P < 0. 01 ). The rigidity of natural repair group [ (676. 57 ±50. 92) N/mm] had significant difference with that of the other three groups[ A group( 884. 66±52. 29)N/mm;C group(1178.40 ± 170.45) N/mm;D group(928.60 ± 104.42) N/mm] ( P <0.05, P<0. 01 ). Conclusions Femoral head plastic operation was simple and it could release pain. And femoral head outline could be kept integrity. It would be a new operation which was used to treat young patients in Ficat Ⅱ~Ⅲ period to postpone or substitute total hip replacement.

Objective:
This study aims to investigate the menarcheal age of female junior middle school students in Tianjin and associated factors, providing suggestions for further development of adolescence education on physiological and mental health.
Methods:
A total of 4 127 junior middle school girls in Tianjin area were selected by stratified random sampling method, and investigated by the method of physical examination and questionnaire survey, results were analyzed.
Results:
There were 1 383 girls reported menarche. Mean age at menarche was(12.68±1.19) years old; One-way ANOVA showed that girls with higher family income, higher parental education had earlier menarcheal age(F=4.97, 9.52, 10.64, P<0.05). It showed that the tendency that obesity group and over-weight group was higher in the rate of menarche than that of normal group and marasmus group(F=4.20, P<0.05). However, different time on watching TV, computer or celephone and sleeping was found to be unrelated with age at menarche(P>0.05). Kruskal Wallis H test showed that girls whose mothers’ AAM was earlier had earlier menarcheal age(H=82.94, P<0.05). According to age, girls were divided into groups of 10-11, 11-12, 12-13 and 13-14 years old. Girls in each age group were divided into the menstruation menarche group and the non-menstruation menarche group. The results showed that the levels of height, weight, BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference, and the skin fold thickness in menstruation group were higher than those in non-menstruation group(t=2.18-10.93, P<0.05). After that, girls of each group were divided into four group:marasmus group, the normal group, the over-weight group and the obesity group according to BMI(χ2=34.66,13.37,11.09,12.60,P<0.05).
Conclusion
Female junior middle school students’ menarcheal age in Tianjin is related to family income, parents’education, mother’s age at menarche, obesity and physical exercise frequency.

Oral cancer is a common head and neck malignant tumor. Its molecular mechanism of pathogenesis is complex and needs further exploration. Non-coding RNAs account for more than 95% of human transcripts and include microRNAs, lncRNAs, and circRNAs. They are an important entry point for research on molecular mechanism of oral cancer. Non-coding RNAs and protein-coding genes constitute a complex regulatory system involved in the regulation of physiological and pathological processes. This review summarizes articles about oral cancer-related non-coding RNAs and presents valuable information from the perspectives of microRNA, lncRNA, and circRNA.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most important histological type of lung cancer. This disease affects a large number of patients, and the prognosis of advanced patients is poor. Although great progress has been achieved for existing treatment methods, challenges still exist. Cancer is a genetic disease, and its occurrence is accompanied by substantial genomic-sequence instability. (GT/CA)n repeat sequence is a common microsatellite sequence serving as transcriptional function-related regions, DNA-methylation modification sites, and other functional sites. Its polymorphism is closely related to the expression of EGFR, HO-1, and HIF-1α in NSCLC patients. (GT/CA)n repeat sequence is the breakthrough point to explore the molecular mechanism of NSCLC occurrence and development, develop molecular markers for diagnosis and prognosis and epigenetics research. This paper summarizes the studies on (GT/CA)n repeat polymorphisms in NSCLC with the aim of providing references for relevant NSCLC research.
