BACKGROUND:Titanium elastic intramedullary nailing for the treatment of significantly displaced midshaft clavicle fractures has the characteristics of minimally invasive and elastic fixation.The displacement of the fracture is closely related to the later function.However,there are few studies on the three-dimensional displacement analysis of the fracture ends before surgery and after intramedullary fixation such as titanium elastic intramedullary nailing.OBJECTIVE:To explore the three-dimensional displacement of fracture ends after midshaft clavicle fracture and fixation with titanium elastic intramedullary nails,and to analyze the risk factors.METHODS:A total of 91 patients with midshaft clavicle fracture(fracture end shortening ≥15 mm)admitted to Wendeng Orthopedic Hospital of Shandong Province from April 2019 to April 2024 were selected,including 57 males and 34 females,aged(51.73±10.21)years old.All patients received closed reduction and internal fixation with titanium elastic intramedullary nail.CT scans of the affected clavicle were performed before and on the first day after surgery.The CT data were imported into Mimics software for modeling.The length of the clavicle,lateral displacement of the fracture end,and rotation of the distal end of the fracture along the X,Y,and Z axes were measured and recorded before and after surgery.Pearson correlation coefficient was used for correlation analysis of various parameters,and generalized linear regression was used to evaluate risk factors.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Preoperatively,the variable that increased the risk of lateral displacement was the number of comminuted bone fragments,the variable that increased the risk of shortening displacement was male patients,and the variable that increased the risk of Z-axis rotation was the left limb.Shortening displacement was significantly positively correlated with lateral displacement(r=0.715,P＜0.001);shortening displacement was significantly positively correlated with X-axis rotation displacement and Y-axis rotation displacement(r=0.265,P=0.028;r=0.303,P=0.011);lateral displacement was significantly positively correlated with Y-axis rotation and Z-axis rotation(r=0.258,P=0.032;r=0.250,P=0.038);X-axis rotation was significantly positively correlated with Y-axis rotation(r=0.382,P=0.001),and Z-axis rotation was significantly positively correlated with Y-axis rotation(r=0.280,P=0.020).(2)Postoperatively:The number of scapula fractures and comminuted bone fragments were variables that increased the risk of postoperative shortening and lateral displacement:Preoperative X-,Y-,and Z-axis rotation displacements were risk variables that increased postoperative X-,Y-,and Z-axis rotation displacements,respectively.Postoperative lateral displacement was significantly positively correlated with postoperative shortening and displacement(r=0.584,P=0.000),and postoperative lateral displacement was also significantly positively correlated with postoperative Y axis rotation and Z axis rotation(r=0.360,P=0.002;r=0.250,P=0.038).Postoperative Y axis rotation was significantly positively correlated with postoperative Z axis rotation(r=0.248,P=0.040).(3)The results showed that the three-dimensional displacement of the clavicle end before and after surgery was affected by many factors,especially the number of comminuted bone fragments,scapula fractures,gender,and original rotation displacement.At the same time,there were complex correlations between various displacements,especially the correlation between shortening displacement and lateral displacement was the strongest.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between physical development indicators and the onset and progression of myopia among children and adolescents, so as to provide theoretical support for coordinated vision and physical health management. Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted. In September 2022, 3 102 students from grade one in primary school to grade three in junior high school (five year primary school and four year junior high school) from six schools in Huantai County, Shandong Province, were selected using multistage cluster random sampling method to participate in an epidemiological survey on myopia, with follow up completed in September 2023. Follow up value minus baseline value( d ) was used to assess changes in physical development and vision indicators. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between physical development indicators and the incidence of myopia. Generalized linear models were established to analyze the relationship between physical development indicators and changes in d spherical equivalent (SE) and d axial length (AL) . Results: Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that, after adjusting for factors such as gender, age, and baseline body mass index, the third ( Q 3)and fourth ( Q 4)quartiles of d height showed increased risks of myopia onset within one year compared to the first quartile( Q 1) ( OR =1.85,95% CI =1.18-2.88; OR =1.74,95% CI =1.09-2.78,both P ＜0.05). Results from the generalized linear model indicated that, after adjusting for confounding factors such as gender, age, and baseline SE, d SE was negatively correlated with d height and d weight in children and adolescents ( β =-0.024, 95% CI =-0.031 to -0.018; β =-0.006, 95% CI =-0.011 to -0.001), d AL was positively correlated with d height and d weight in children and adolescents ( β =0.011, 95% CI =0.008-0.013; β =0.005, 95% CI =0.003-0.007) (all P ＜0.05). Conclusions Physical development indicators in children and adolescents were associated with the onset and progression of myopia. Dynamic monitoring and early intervention of myopia should be strengthened for children and adolescents with rapid height and weight gain to achieve coordinated management of myopia and physical development.

Objective To investigate serum vitamin D levels of healthy children in Beijing and to analyze the factors affecting vitamin D level.Methods Healthy children aged 1-14 years old who underwent physical examination in department of pediatrica,Civil Aviation General Hospital from September 2016 to September 2020 were randomly selected as research objects.Clinical data of the children were collected and a questionnaires survey was conducted.The level of 25-hydroxy vitamin D[25-(OH)D]was detected by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.Serum 25-(OH)D levels were compared between different groups(grouped by age,gender,season,outdoor activity time,and vitamin D supplementation).Results A total of 990 children met the inclusion criteria.There were 500 boys and 490 girls,with a mean age of(6.42±3.50)years old.The mean serum level of 25-(OH)D was(28.23±6.74)ng/ml in all the selected children(range,11.70-51.90 ng/ml),(31.99±6.47)ng/ml in young child group,(27.54±6.49)ng/ml in preschool group,and(25.84±5.93)ng/ml in school-age group.The serum level of 25-(OH)D in the young child group was significantly higher than those in the preschool group and school-age group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the serum level of 25-(OH)D between the preschool group and school-age group(P>0.05).There were significant differences in the proportions of children with normal 25-(OH)D,insufficient 25-(OH)D and deficient 25-(OH)D among different age groups(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the serum level of 25-(OH)D between boys and girls in the same age group(P>0.05).There was significant difference in 25-(OH)D levels among different age groups with a same gender(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the proportions of children with normal 25-(OH)D,insufficient 25-(OH)D,or deficient 25-(OH)D between boys and girls(P>0.05).The level of serum 25-(OH)D and the proportion of children with normal serum 25-(OH)D reached the highest in summer and the lowest in winter.There were significant differences in the serum 25-(OH)D levels and the proportion of children with normal serum 25-(OH)D among different seasons(P<0.05).The serum 25-(OH)D level in children with outdoor activities≥1 h daily was significantly higher than that in children with outdoor activities<1 h daily(P<0.05).There were significant differences in the proportions of normal 25-(OH)D,insufficient 25-(OH)D and deficient 25-(OH)D between children with outdoor activities≥1 h daily and children with outdoor activities<1 h daily(P<0.05).The serum levels of 25-(OH)D in children of never-supplement group and sometimes-supplement group were lower than that in the daily supplement group(P<0.05),and there were significant differences in the proportions of normal 25-(OH)D,insufficient 25-(OH)D and deficient 25-(OH)D among the three groups(P<0.05).Conclusion Vitamin D nutritional status of healthy children in Beijing is good.Serum 25-(OH)D level decreases with age.No difference is found in the serum 25-(OH)D level between boys and girls in every age group.No abnormal vitamin D level is found in young children.The insufficiency and deficiency of vitamin D exist in preschool and school-age children,which needs to be improved.Vitamin D level in children is related to seasons.Sufficient time of outdoor activities and regular supplementation of vitamin D can help improve vitamin D nutritional status in children.

Objective: To investigate the distribution of pupil diameter and its association with myopia in school age children, providing ideas into the mechanisms of the role of pupil diameter in the onset and development of myopia. Methods: Adopting a combination of stratified cluster random sampling and convenience sampling method, 3 839 children from six schools in Shandong Province were included in September 2021. Pupil diameters distribution was analyzed by age, sex, and myopic status. Pearson correlation analysis was used to assess the relationship between pupil diameter and cycloplegic spherical equivalent (SE), as well as axial length (AL) and other variables. Propensity score matching (PSM) was applied to match myopic and non myopic children at a 1∶1 ratio based on age and sex. A generalized linear model (GLM) was constructed with pupil diameter as the dependent variable to identify independent factors influencing pupil size and its association with myopia. Results: The mean pupil diameter of school age children was (5.77±0.80)mm. Pupil diameter exhibited a significant increasing trend with age ( F =49.34， P trend ＜ 0.01). Myopic children had a significantly larger mean pupil diameter [(6.10±0.73)mm] compared to non myopic children [(5.62±0.79)mm] with a statistically significant difference( t=18.10, P <0.01). Multivariable GLM analysis, adjusted for age, amplitude of accommodation, and uncorrected visual acuity, revealed a negative correlation between pupil diameter and cycloplegic SE (before PSM: β =-0.089, after PSM: β =-0.063, both P ＜0.01). Conclusions Myopic school age children exhibite larger pupil diameters than their non myopic counterparts. Pupil diameter may serve as a potential indicator for monitoring myopia development in school age children.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the short-term clinical efficacy and safety of closed reduction with Kirschner wire fixation versus open reduction with plate fixation for treating osteoporotic Colles' fractures in middle-aged and elderly patients. METHODS: Between January 2018 and January 2023, 119 patients with Colles fractures were retrospectively analyzed, including 39 males and 80 females, aged from 48 to 74 years old with an average of(60.58±6.71) years old. The time from injury to operation ranged 1 to 13 days with an average of (5.29±2.52) days. According to the surgical method, they were divided into Kirschner wire fixation group (Kirschner wire group) and plate internal fixation group (plate group). In Kirschner wire group, there were a total of 68 patients, comprising 21 males and 47 females. The average age was (61.15±6.24) years old, ranged from 49 to 74 years old. Among them, 41 cases involved the left side while 27 cases involved the right side. In the plate group, there were a total of 51 patients, including 18 males and 33 females. The average age was (59.78±5.71) years old ranged from 48 to 72 years old. Among them, there were 31 cases on the left side and 20 cases on the right side. The following parameters were recorded before and after the operation:operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospitalization days, hospitalization expenses, postoperative complications, and radiographic parameters of distal radius (distal radius height, ulnar deviation angle, palmar tilt angle). The clinical efficacy was evaluated at 3 and 12 months after the operation using Gartland-Werley and disabilites of the arm shoulder and hand (DASH) scores. RESULTS: The patients in both groups were followed up for a duration from 12 to 19 months with an average of(13.32±2.02) months. The Kirschner wire group exhibited significantly shorter operation time compared to the plate group 27.91(13.00, 42.00) min vs 67.52(29.72, 105.32) min, Z=-8.74, P=0.00. Intraoperative blood loss was also significantly lower in the Kirschner wire group than in the plate group 3.24(1.08, 5.40) ml vs 21.91(17.38, 26.44) ml, Z=-9.31, P=0.00. Furthermore, patients in the Kirschner wire group had a shorter length of hospital stay compared to those in the plate group (8.38±2.63) days vs (11.40±2.78) days, t=-3.12, P=0.00. Additionally, hospitalization cost was significantly lower in the Kirschner wire group than in the plate group 10 111.29(6 738.98, 13 483.60) yuan vs 15 871.11(11 690.40, 20 051.82) yuan, Z=-5.62, P=0.00. The incidence of complications was 2 cases in the Kirschner wire group and 1 case in the plate group, with no statistically significant difference(P>0.05). At 3 months postoprative, the radial height of the Kirschner wire group was found to be significantly smaller than that of the plate group, with measurements of (11.45±1.69) mm and (12.11±1.78) mm respectively (t=-2.06, P=0.04). However, there were no statistically significant differences observed in ulnar deviation angle and palmar tilt angle between the two groups (P>0.05). The DASH score and Gartland-Werley score in the Kirschner group were significantly higher than those in the plate group at 3 months post-operation (19.10±9.89) vs (13.47±3.51), t=4.34, P=0.00;(11.15±3.61) vs (6.41±2.75), t=8.13, P=0.00). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups at 12 months post-operation (P>0.05). CONCLUSION Compared to plate internal fixation, closed reduction with Kirschner wire support fixation yields a slightly inferior recovery of radial height;however, there is no significant disparity in the functional score of the affected limb at 12 months post-operation. Nonetheless, this technique offers advantages such as shorter operation time, reduced intraoperative blood loss, decreased hospitalization duration, and lower cost.

OBJECTIVES: To explore the status and risk factors of neuropsychological development in small for gestational age (SGA) infants at corrected 12-24 months of age. METHODS: Clinical data were retrospectively collected for 754 SGA infants at corrected ages 12-24 months in Shenzhen Bao'an Women and Children's Hospital between April 2018 and December 2023. Developmental quotient (DQ) levels were analyzed. According to the presence of global developmental delay (GDD), participants were divided into a GDD group (71 cases) and a control group (683 cases), and the incidence and influencing factors of GDD were investigated. RESULTS: In the high-risk preterm SGA group, the total DQ and DQ in all domains were lower than in the full-term SGA group (P<0.017). The overall incidence of GDD was 9.4% (71/754) and increased with decreasing gestational age (P<0.017). Compared with the control group, the GDD group had higher proportions of males; low-risk and high-risk preterm birth; mothers with less than a bachelor's degree; multiple birth; neonatal hypoglycemia; neonatal pneumonia; neonatal respiratory distress syndrome; bronchopulmonary dysplasia; and, at corrected 12-24 months, low body weight, growth retardation, and microcephaly. The length of neonatal hospital stay was longer in the GDD group than in the control group (P<0.05). The weight-for-age Z score, length-for-age Z score, and head circumference-for-age Z score at birth and at corrected 12-24 months were lower in the GDD group than in the control group (P<0.05). Multivariable logistic regression showed that male sex and maternal education below a bachelor's degree were independent risk factors for GDD in SGA infants (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Neuropsychological development in preterm SGA infants is comparatively delayed; male SGA infants born to mothers with less than a bachelor's degree should receive priority attention.

This study aims to explore the mechanism of Shenling Baizhu San(SLBZS)in the treat-ment of ulcerative colitis(UC)based on systematic network pharmacology and in vivo experimen-tal verification.Systematic network pharmacology was used to predict the core targets and key pathways of the SLBZS in the treatment of UC,it was further validated in UC model of BALB/c mice which were established with DSS[3.5％(w/v)],and SLBZS was given orally for treatment at the same time.Network analysis of SLBZS identified 153 active compounds and 68 compound-re-lated targets correlated with UC.Additionally,5 core active compounds were obtained,such as rob-inin,luteolin,kaempferol,quercetin,denudatin B.Most of the compounds have proven to have phar-macological activities.Based on PPI network and pathway enrichment studies,SLBZS may exert anti-inflammatory,immunological regulation,and participate in the process of apoptosis through regulating IL6,TNF,IL1B,PTGS2,TP53,STAT3,CASP3,IL10,CXCL8,IL2,PPARG,PTPRC,IFNG,MTOR,MMP9,so as to affect cell differentiation,TNF signaling,cancer signaling,IL-17 signaling,NF-Kappa B signaling of Th17 cell.The results of in vivo animal experiments showed that SBP could significantly improve the clinical symptoms and colonic pathological changes of UC mice,regulate the abnormal changes of blood routine indexes,increase the serum inflammatory factors IL-4 and IL-10,and reduce the contents of IL-6,IL-2,IL-1β and TNF-α.These results indi-cates that SBP can treat ulcerative colitis through TNF signaling pathway and NF-Kappa B signa-ling pathway.

Objective To understand the molecular epidemiological characteristics and hypervirulence evolution trend of ST11 carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)isolated from medical institutions in Shanghai,and provide scientific basis for formulating the prevention and control measures of drug-resistant organisms.Methods A total of 201 strains of CRKP isolated from 12 medical institutions in Shanghai from 2021 to 2022 were collected.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing and whole genome sequencing were performed.The concatenated data was used for multilocus sequencing typing(MLST),serum typing(wzi typing),as well as analysis of resistance and viru-lence genes.Results All 201 CRKP strains were multidrug-resistant organisms(MDROs).These strains were al-most completely resistant to carbapenems,cephalosporins,and quinolones.Drug resistance gene analysis showed that 93.03％of CRKP strains carried KPC gene.201 CRKP strains were divided into 6 ST types and 10 capsule wzi types,with ST11-KL64(n=104)being the dominant type,followed by ST15-KL19(n=54).52.24％(n=105)of CRKP carried rpmA/rpmA2+iucA+iutA+iroN genes.Conclusion CRKP isolated from medical institutions in Shanghai is mainly ST11-KL64 type with severe multidrug resistance,and more than half of the strains are hyper-virulent carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(hv-CRKP).It is necessary to continuously strengthen the monitoring of the molecular characteristics of CRKP,so as to prevent outbreaks of healthcare-associated infection.
