Objective:To explore the clinical effect and safety of extended debridement combined with BAM bone-induced artificial bone repair in the treatment of Cierny-Mader type IV osteomyelitis.Methods:From January 2021 to December 2022, 106 patients with Cierny-Mader type IV osteomyelitis who were treated with allogeneic bone mixed with autologous bone in department of orthopedics of Sichuan Orthopedic Hospital were retrospectively selected as the study subjects. Among them, 54 patients who were combined with BAM bone-induced artificial bone mixed with autologous bone repair were included in observation group, and 52 patients who only received allogeneic bone mixed with autologous bone repair were enrolled as control group. The clinical related indicators (bone healing time, fracture healing time), clinical efficacy (Johner-Wruh tibial shaft fracture evaluation standard) at 1 year after surgery, inflammatory factors (white blood cell count (WBC), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin), limb function (American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot Scale (AOFAS-AH)) and bone healing degree before surgery and at 1 year after surgery were compared between both groups. Chi-square test was used to compare the enumeration data between groups, and the independent sample t test was performed to compare the measurement data with normal distribution between groups.Results:At 1 year after surgery, the clinical healing indicators of bone healing time and fracture healing time and inflammatory factors such as WBC, ESR, CRP and procalcitonin with (21.19±2.16) weeks, (11.35±1.01) weeks, (6.15±0.73)×10 9/L, (9.10±1.05) mm/h, (8.09±1.11) mg/L and (0.05±0.01) μg/L in observation group were significantly shorter or lower than (24.32±2.39) weeks, (12.29±1.27) weeks, (7.86±0.89)×10 9/L, (10.10±1.32) mm/h, (9.26±1.23) mg/L and (0.08±0.01) μg/L in control group,and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 7.08, 4.23, 10.83, 4.33, 5.15, and 15.44, respectively; all P<0.001). The clinical effective rate (85.19%(46/54)), AOFAS-AH score((84.83±12.17) points) and bone healing probability (94.44%(51/54)) were higher than (67.31%(35/52)), (79.17±11.25) points and 80.77% (42/52) in control group,with statistically significant differences (statistical values were χ2=4.70, t=2.48, and χ2=4.60, respectively; P values were 0.030, 0.015, and 0.032, respectively). Conclusion:Expanded debridement combined with BAM bone-induced artificial bone repair can effectively promote the bone tissue healing in patients with Cierny-Mader type IV osteomyelitis, relieve the inflammatory response, and improve the limb function, and it has good clinical efficacy and high safety.

Abivertinib, a third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is originally designed to target epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-activating mutations. Previous studies have shown that abivertinib has promising antitumor activity and a well-tolerated safety profile in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer. However, abivertinib also exhibited high inhibitory activity against Bruton's tyrosine kinase and Janus kinase 3. Given that these kinases play some roles in the progression of megakaryopoiesis, we speculate that abivertinib can affect megakaryocyte (MK) differentiation and platelet biogenesis. We treated cord blood CD34⁺ hematopoietic stem cells, Meg-01 cells, and C57BL/6 mice with abivertinib and observed megakaryopoiesis to determine the biological effect of abivertinib on MK differentiation and platelet biogenesis. Our in vitro results showed that abivertinib impaired the CFU-MK formation, proliferation of CD34⁺ HSC-derived MK progenitor cells, and differentiation and functions of MKs and inhibited Meg-01-derived MK differentiation. These results suggested that megakaryopoiesis was inhibited by abivertinib. We also demonstrated in vivo that abivertinib decreased the number of MKs in bone marrow and platelet counts in mice, which suggested that thrombopoiesis was also inhibited. Thus, these preclinical data collectively suggested that abivertinib could inhibit MK differentiation and platelet biogenesis and might be an agent for thrombocythemia.

Objective    To investigate the clinical value of artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted chest computed tomography (CT) in the diagnosis of peripheral lung shadow. Methods    The CT image data of 810 patients with peripheral pulmonary shadow treated by thoracic surgery in Tianjin Chest Hospital Affiliated to Tianjin University from January 2018 to July 2019 were retrospectively analyzed using AI-assisted chest CT imaging diagnosis system. There were 339 males and 471 females with a median age of 63 years. The malignant probability of preoperative AI-assisted diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary shadow was compared with the results of postoperative pathology. Results    The pathological diagnosis of 810 patients with peripheral pulmonary shadow was lung cancer in 627 (77.4%) patients, precancerous lesion in 30 (3.7%) patients and benign lesion in 153 (18.9%) patients. The median probability of malignant AI diagnosis before operation was 86.0% (lung cancer), 90.0% (precancerous lesion) and 37.0% (benign lesion), respectively. According to the analysis of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of AI malignant probability distribution in this group of patients, the area under the ROC curve was 0.882. The critical value of malignant probability for diagnosis of lung cancer was 75.0%with a sensitivity of 0.856 and specificity of 0.814. A total of 571 patients were diagnosed with AI malignancy probability≥ 75.0%, among whom 537 patients were pathologically diagnosed as lung cancer with a positive predictive value of 94.0%(537/571). Conclusion    The AI-assisted chest CT diagnosis system has a high accuracy in the diagnosis of peripheral lung cancer with malignant probability≥75.0% as the diagnostic threshold.

Objective    To compare the 5-year survival rates between two different follow-up patterns of postoperative stage Ⅰ-ⅢA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Methods    Pathological stage Ⅰ-ⅢA NSCLC 11 958 patients who underwent surgical resection and received follow-up within 6 months after initial diagnosis through telephone follow-up system were included in nine hospitals from July 2014 to July 2020. The patients were divided into two groups including a proactive follow-up group (n=3 825) and a passive follow-up group (n=8 133) according to the way of following-up. There were 6 939 males and 5 019 females aged 59.8±9.5 years. The Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards regression model were used. Results    The median follow-up frequency was 8.0 times in the proactive follow-up group and 7.0 times in the passive follow-up group. The median call duration was 3.77 minutes in the proactive follow-up group and 3.58 minutes in the passive follow-up group. The 5-year survival rate was 81.8% and 74.2% (HR=0.60, 95CI 0.53-0.67, P<0.001) in the proactive follow-up group and the passive follow-up group, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that follow-up pattern, age, gender and operation mode were independent prognostic factors, and the results were consistent in all subgroups stratified by clinical stages. Conclusion    The proactive follow-up leads to better overall survival for resected stage Ⅰ-ⅢA NSCLC patients, especially in the stage ⅢA.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and correlates of depression in residents aged 15 and older in Hainan province.Methods Stratified multistage random sampling methods were utilized to identify 12 117 individuals (≥15 years old) from 59 villages (neighborhoods) in 24 towns (streets) within 6 counties (cities) in Hainan Province from September 2010 to November 2011.The subjects were screened with an expanded version of the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) and the respondents were divided into three groups by high risk,moderate risk and low risk of mental disorder,followed by formal diagnosis according to the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV-TR (SCID-I/P) by psychiatrists among 100％ subjects in group with high risk,40％ subjects in group with moderate risk and 10％ subjects in group with low risk.The adjusted rate,standardized rate,and 95％ confidence interval (95％CI) of the one-month and lifetime prevalence were also calculated among the 3 groups of individuals who were diagnosed with depressive disorder.The difference in whether they suffered depression was determined by the chi-squared test.Correlations to depressive disorder and the odds ratio (OR) were explored with multiple regression analysis.Results There were 97 cases of depressive disorders (1-month) and 166 cases of lifetime depressive disorders finally confirmed.The adjusted rate of 1-month prevalence was 1.38％ (95％CI:1.12-1.59) and the life-time adjusted prevalence rate was 2.80％ (95％CI:2.51-3.09).Female (OR=1.55,95％CI:1.12-2.14),mid-age(50-64 y,OR=1.84,95％CI:1.13-2.99),being divorced or living separated (OR=4.87,95％CI:1.86-12.73),suffering chronic diseases (OR=2.19,95％CI:1.56-3.07),and low family income were significantly associated with suffering depressive disorder.Conclusions The prevalence of the depressive disorder among residents aged 15 and older in Hainan province is lower than the nationwide prevalence.People who are female,mid-age,being divorced or not living with the partner,earning a low income,and suffering chronic diseases have more predisposition to develop the depressive disorder in Hainan province.

Objective The mechanism of the lymph node metastasis in lung adenocarcinoma is unknown.The characteristic of the N1 and N2 lymph nodes metastasis are different.We explore the relationship between the N1 lymph node metastasis and clinicopathological factors in lung adenocarcinoma patients.Methods Data of 126 patients who had received lobectomy and systematic lymph node dissection were retrospectively analyzed.Chi-square test and Fisher exact method was used in univariate analysis,logistic regression was performed to analyze the multivariate analysis.Critical value was calculate in ROC.All the methods executed in software SPSS 19.0.Results After analyzed the N1 lymph node metastasis and clinicopathological factors,sex (P =0.016),diameter of tumor (P =0.001),pleural invasion (P =0.008),micropapillary pattern (P =0.028),solid pattern (P =0.047) has statistical significance in univariate analysis.Logistic regression analysis reveal diameter of tumor,micropapillary pattern and solid pattern were independent risk factors for N1 lymph nodes.CEA level (P =0.004),cancer embolus (P =0.029),micropapillary pattern (P =0.018),affect the groups (number of metastasis station) of the metastasis lymph nodes.Logistic regression analysis find CEA and micropapillary pattern were independent risk factors,which might lead multiple groups lymph nodes metastasis.There is only one factor could impact the location of the N1 lymph node metastasis,which is micropapillary pattern (P =0.027).Conclusion Via ROC results,there are three factors affect the N1 lymph nodes metastasis:purity of micropapillary pattern more than 27.5％,purity of solid pattern more than 15％,diameter of tumor larger than 3.0 cm.If a lung adenocarcinoma patient who was in early stage has one or more than one factors,we suggest chemotherapy followed the surgery.Higher CEA level or higher content of micropapillary pattern much more groups lymph nodes metastasis might appear,so radiotherapy and other method should be considered to added on.High content of micropapillary pattern maybe imply cancer cell has already invaded extra pulmonary lymph nodes.

Objective To determine the clinical characteristics in elderly patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome ( GBS) and explore the relationship between glucose metabolism and severity and prognosis of disease. Methods Records of patients with GBS admitted between January 2004 and February 2017 from Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University were evaluated, including antecedent infection, initial symp-toms, cranial nerve palsy, subgroup analysis, Hughes score and Medical Research Council ( MRC) score at nadir and when discharged. Results The incidence of ocular palsy (6. 4％ vs 27. 0％, P=0. 02) and of facial palsy (18. 8％ vs 45. 8％, P =0. 016 ) were both lower in older group, compared to non-elderly group. MRC score at nadir (32 vs 44, P=0. 020), rate of severe type (80. 6％ vs 47. 9％, P=0. 004) and rate of poor prognosis when discharged (67. 7％ vs 29. 2％,P=0. 001) in elderly group were higher than non-elderly group. As to the distribution of subtype in these two groups, no significant difference was found (P=0. 691). Hyperglycemia wasn't prognostic factor of severe type (OR =0. 531,P =0. 321) or poor short-term prognosis (OR=0. 519,P=0. 261). Conclusions The clinical characteristics of elderly patients with GBS are distinct from non-elderly patients. Hyperglycemia wasn 't predictor of severe type or poor short-term prognosis of GBS.

Objective To investigate the effect of super-selective intracoronary administration on acute myocardial in farction patients.Methods A total of 240 patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction who received emergency percutaneous coronary intervention in our department from March 2012 to January 2014 were selected and divided into the intravenous drug administration group (n=77),the conventional intracoronary drug administration group (n=81) and the super-selective intracoronary drug administration group (n=82).Parameters,including the Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) classification,ST segment resolution after operation,peak values of creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) and troponin-I (cTn-I),left ventricular ejection fraction,left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD),major adverse cardiovascular events and bleeding events,were compared between the groups.Results There were no significant differences in TIMI flow grade between the three groups (x2 =0.14,P=0.529).The percentage of patients with complete ST segment resolution after operation was higher in the super-selective intracoronary drug administration group than in the intravenous drug administration and conventional intracoronary drug administration groups (74.4％ vs.62.3％,61.7％,x2 =8.24,P＜0.05).Peak values of CK-MB and cTn-I were lower in the super-selective intracoronary drug administration group than in the other groups (P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in left ventricular ejection fraction and LVEDD between the three groups after operation,but left ventricular ejection fraction and the incidence of angina pectoris significantly improved in the super-selective intracoronary drug administration group than in the other groups after a three month follow-up (P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in target lesion revascularization,nonfatal myocardial infarction and druginduced thrombocytopenia between the three groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Super-selective intracoronary drug administration can significantly enhance cardiac function and alleviate angina pectoris in patients with acute myocardial infarction,and should be a recommended method.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of anterior internal fixation plus vacuum sealing drainage in the treatment of ulnar and radial fractures of Gustilo type Ⅲ.Methods Twenty-eight patients with open ulnar and radial fracture of Gustilo type Ⅲ were managed from April 2007 to March 2014,and were divided into four groups(n =4).Group A were managed with external fixator and conventional changing dressings.Group B were managed with internal fixation and vacuum sealing drainage.Group C were managed with external fixator and vacuum sealing drainage.Group D were managed with internal fixation and conventional changing dressings.Result Twenty-eight cases were adopted telephone follow-up for 6 to 27 months.The soft tissue recovery time of each group respectively was (20.5 ± 2.37) days,(14.7 ±2.16) days,(15.6 ±2.17) days and(19.7 ±2.18) days.The hospital stay of each group respectively was (9.7 ± 2.54) weeks,(4.7 ± 1.46) weeks,(5.2 ± 2.34) weeks and 8.6 ± 2.16) weeks.The fracture healing time of each group respectively was (19.6 ± 2.74) weeks,(13.1±1.84) weeks,(18.1 ±2.54) weeks and (14.7 ± 1.74) weeks.There was significant difference of these data between the two groups(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Anterior internal fixation plus vacuum sealing drainage is a better way to treat ulnar and radial fractures of Gustilo type Ⅲ.The technique has short period,less complications,less painful and less expense.
