ObjectiveTo study on the hyperlipidemia patient plasma cause atherosclerosis index and the blood,blood serum uric acid sticks and so on thrombosis risk factors of the relationship.Methods81 patients with hyperlipidemia patient and 80 cases of normal blood fat crowd as the research object,the two groups were measured blood fat including total bravery solid alcohol ( TC ),triglycerides (TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( hdl-c ),low dense white lipoprotein LDL( solid bravery alcohol-C) levd,blood uric acid,whole blood viscosity,platelet aggregation function and serum C-reactive protein(CRP) content,and according to the TG and hdl-c than of both the logarithm of conversion values calculated the two groups of the plasma to atherosclerosis values,and by using the DuoYuan linear regression analysis with the blood acid,whole blood viscosity,platelet aggregation function and serum levels of CRP relationship.ResultsObservation group AIP(2.25 ±0.18) was significantly higher( 1.31 ±0.15 ) ( t =46.71,P < 0.05 ),and AIP and LDL-C,uric acid,whole blood viscosity,platelet aggregation was positively correlated ( r =0.86,0.85,0.79,0.81,0.77,all P < 0.05 ),with HDL-C was negatively correlated ( r =-0.69,P < 0.05 ).ConclusionPatients with hyperlipidemia plasma cause atherosclerosis index and patients,such as blood uric acid blood viscosity thrombosis dangerous close by,by early know patients plasma to atherosclerosis index,and monitor patients early blood uric acid and blood viscosity,thrombosis risk factors level,to facilitate accurate assessment of some patients with cardiovascular disease risk,and to guide to take reasonable early intervention measures,reduce cardiovascular events.

Methods:
This study enrolled 40 patients with AIS, 20 patients with congenital scoliosis (CS), and 20 patients with spinal degenerative disease (SDD). All patients underwent open posterior surgery in our hospital, and a paravertebral muscle (multifidus muscle) biopsy was performed intraoperatively. This study included many indexes that describe muscle, especially dystrophin staining. The above pathological results were compared among the AIS, CS, and SDD groups. The correlation between the Cobb angle and Nash–Moe classification and the above pathological results was analyzed in patients with AIS.
Results:
Significant reductions in the dystrophin staining of dystrophin-1 (p<0.001), dystrophin-2 (p<0.001), and dystrophin-3 (p<0.001) were observed in the AIS group than in the CS and SDD groups. The higher the Nash–Moe classification in the AIS group, the more significant the loss of dystrophin-2 (p=0.042) in the convex paraspinal muscles. Additionally, a significantly positive correlation was observed between the reductions of dystrophin-2 on the concave side of the AIS group and Cobb angle (p=0.011).
Conclusions
Dystrophin protein deficiency in the paraspinal muscles plays a crucial role in AIS formation and progression. The severity of scoliosis in patients with AIS is correlated with the extent of dystrophin loss in the paravertebral muscles. Therefore, dystrophin dysfunction may be relevant to AIS occurrence and development.

Objective:To explore the risk factors associated with tibia fractures in children with congenital anterolateral bowing of the tibia (ALBT).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on data from 87 children diagnosed with ALBT at the Children's Hospital of Hunan Province from January 2012 to January 2020. The collected data included age at initial diagnosis, affected limb side, whether there was a concomitant type I neurofibromatosis, whether there was a concomitant fibular pseudoarthrosis, whether there was concomitant ankle joint deformity, whether there was bone cystic change in the region of tibial bowing deformity, location of the apex of the bowing deformity, diameter of the tibial bowing deformity on the affected side, diameter on the healthy side in the same plane as the tibial bowing deformity, angle of lateral bending deformity of the tibia, angle of anterior bending deformity of the tibia, occurrence of tibia fracture, history of trauma before fracture, location of fracture, and age at the time of fracture. The follow-up endpoint was January 2023. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to determine the optimal cutoff values for the angles of lateral and anterior bending deformity of the tibia and the ratio of cross-sectional areas. The correlation between the above factors and tibial fractures in children was analyzed by single factor survival analysis, and the indicators with statistical significance were included in multivariate Cox proportional risk regression analysis to determine the risk factors for tibial fractures in children with ALBT.Results:Of the 87 children diagnosed with ALBT, the median age at initial diagnosis was 14.0 months (range, 1-93 months), with 42 males and 45 females, 44 left-sided and 43 right-sided cases. The median follow-up time for non-fracture cases was 42.0 months (range, 1-124 months). At the last follow-up, 43 children had experienced fractures, while 44 had not. The average time to fracture-free survival was 70.3 months, the median fracture-free survival time was 55.0 months, and the median survival time without fractures was 42.0 months. The ROC curve results indicated a cutoff value of 25.55° for the lateral bending angle of the tibia and 32.63° for the anterior bending angle of the tibia, with no statistically significant significance for the cross-sectional area ratio [AUC=0.54, 95% CI (0.42, 0.66), P=0.530]. Single-factor analysis of fracture-free survival suggested that there were statistically significant differences in the intergroup fracture-free survival rates of four factors: lateral bending angle of the tibia (χ 2=7.06, P=0.008), anterior bending angle of the tibia (χ 2=8.96, P=0.003), history of trauma (χ 2=18.26, P<0.001), and tibial bone cystic change (χ 2=4.30, P=0.038). The results of the multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed that a lateral bending angle of the tibia≥25.55° ( HR=2.73, P=0.007), tibial bone cystic change ( HR=2.35, P=0.018), and history of trauma ( HR=2.65, P=0.004) were all positively correlated with fractures. Conclusion:The main risk factors for tibia fractures in children with ALBT include trauma, tibial bowing deformity with concomitant bone cystic change, and lateral bending angle of the tibia≥25.55°.

This paper explores the interpretation of Jichuan Decoction (济川煎) by tracing its name's origin, exa-mining the original texts of herbs in the decoction within Jingyue's Complete Works(《景岳全书》), exploring the debate on the sovereign drug of Danggui (Angelica sinensis [Oliv.] Diels) and Roucongrong (Cistanche deserticola Y.C. Ma), and analyzing the historical discussions on the efficacy of the decoction. It is believed that the original meaning of the name Jichuan Decoction (济川煎) refers to its strategy for treating “deficiency constipation”, which can be described as “increasing water to navigating the boat”. Danggui (Angelica sinensis [Oliv.] Diels) is considered the sovereign herb for nourishing blood and moistening dryness, while Roucongrong (Cistanche deserticola Y.C. Ma) serves as the minister herb for moistening the intestines and promoting bowel movements. It is concluded by the author that Jichuan Decoction (济川煎) does not primarily focus on warming the kidneys and assisting yang, but rather emphasizes nourishing blood, moistening dryness, and promoting bowel movements. Its main indication is constipation due to deficiency of yin and blood, which is supported by evidence from antiquarian materials.
