A retrospective analysis was conducted on data from five patients comprehensively diagnosed with emphysematous osteomyelitis (EO) based on clinical, imaging, microbiological culture, and surgical findings at Hebei Medical University Third Hospital from December 2020 to May 2024. Among these five cases, there were three males and two females, aged between 11 and 69 years. Three patients had infection risk factors (two with diabetes and one with anemia), while two had no documented risk factors in their medical history. All patients presented with fever, localized pain at the infection site, and elevated inflammatory markers. Site of incidence: EO affected the lumbar spine in three cases, the ilium in one case, and the femur in one case. Pathogenic microorganisms: The causative agents included Klebsiella pneumoniae (two cases), Escherichia coli (one case), Burkholderia cepacia (one case), and a mixed infection of Staphylococcus aureus and Acinetobacter baumannii (one case). Imaging findings: Among the three patients who underwent X-ray examinations, one showed normal results, while two exhibited bone destruction. CT scans of all five cases revealed the characteristic "pumice sign" without periosteal reaction or osteosclerosis. MRI, performed on four patients, demonstrated bone destruction, swelling of surrounding soft tissues, and soft tissue abscess formation. Treatment and outcomes: Four patients underwent surgical debridement combined with perioperative antibiotic therapy. Of these, three recovered well, while one achieved good infection control but suffered severe joint destruction. One patient died after treatment was discontinued. The clinical and laboratory findings of EO resemble those of common acute osteomyelitis; however, EO has distinct imaging characteristics. Timely diagnosis, aggressive surgical debridement, and strong, targeted antibiotic therapy can result in favorable outcomes. Conversely, delayed diagnosis and treatment may lead to severe complications or death.

Objective:To explore the effect of a new teaching mode, which includes bridge-in, outcome, pre-test, participation, post-test and summary (BOPPPS), on the online teaching of radiobiology related knowledge for cancer radiotherapy practitioners.Methods:Taking the cell survival curve, cell cycle and radiosensitivity as examples, the radiotherapy practitioners in multiple university-affiliated hospitals were organized to carry out a multicenter prospective randomized control study. All practitioners were randomly divided into BOPPPS group and control group. The courses for BOPPPS group were designed as an online classroom, consisting of pre-class preparation, online teaching and post-class stages. The online teaching stage included video viewing, basic knowledge learning, literature discussion, group discussion and others. The control group employed the traditional teaching mode. The χ2 test was used to compare the consistency of general conditions between the two groups, and nonparametric test was used to compare the differences in scores between two or more groups. Results:The score of the pre-class test was 58.56 ± 0.99. Post-class average score for BOPPPS group was 85.48±0.85 and for control group 77.79±1.10, with the former being higher 7.69 ( Z=5.31, P<0.001) than the latter. The average answer time was (296.62±15.40) s for BOPPPS group and (386.41±21.27) s for control group, with the former being shorter 89.79 s ( Z=3.34, P=0.001) than latter. Subgroup analysis shown that the scores of BOPPPS group were significantly rising, regardless of whether or not the students had studied radiobiology courses. Among the students who have not studied these courses, the scores were rising greatly. Moreover, From the analysis of different positions, it was found that both the scores of BOPPPS group and control group have risen, especially for doctors, deputy chief doctors, physicists and technicians. There were also statistically differences between different degrees, with significantly rise in scores for undergraduate and doctoral students ( Z=3.64, 4.18, P<0.001). Conclusions:The flexible application of BOPPPS teaching mode to the online education of such boring disciplines, like radiobiology, is of great significance to raise the theoretical basis of radiotherapy practitioners.

OBJECTIVETo study the relationship between endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) Glu298Asp gene polymorphism and chronic periodontitis (CP) with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
METHODSDNA from patients' buccal swabs of CP, CP with T2DM, T2DM and health was isolated and extracted. The eNOS Glu298Asp gene polymorphism were assessed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) respectively.
RESULTSThe distribution of eNOS Glu298Asp genotype in CP group, T2DM group, CP with T2DM group and health group showed statistical differences (chi2 = 18.503, P = 0.005), and the gene frequency showed statistical differences (chi2 = 8.243, P = 0.041). Compared health group to CP with T2DM group, OR value of the genetype T was 0.962, 95% confidence interval lay in between 0.737 to 1.256, which showed T maybe a protective factor. While OR value of the genetype G was 1.043, 95% confidence interval lay in between 0.781 to 1.391, which showed G maybe a risk factor. However, neither T nor G was statistically significant.
CONCLUSIONBased on these findings, there are some association between eNOS Glu298Asp polymorphism and the risk of CP group, T2DM group, CP with T2DM group.
