ObjectiveTo investigate the incidence rate of primary liver cancer (PLC) and the progression of liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with low-level viremia (LLV) (HBV DNA<2 000 IU/mL but ≥20 IU/mL) after treatment adjustment, and to provide more robust evidence for clinical practice. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of LLV patients who initially received nucleos(t)ide analogue (NAs) for at least 48 weeks at the Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from August 2007 to April 2017 and subsequently underwent NAs adjustment due to LLV, and according to the virologic response after 48 weeks of treatment adjustment, the patients were divided into LLV group and complete virological response (CVR) group (HBV DNA<20 IU/mL). The patients were followed up once every 3 — 6 months till the primary endpoint event of PLC or October 2024. The incidence rate of PLC and the progression of liver fibrosis were observed, and the progression of liver fibrosis was defined as an increase of ≥1 grade in fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) index. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups, and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data with skewed distribution between two groups; the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the cumulative incidence rate of PLC, and the Log-rank test was used for comparison between groups; the Cox regression analysis was used to investigate the risk factors for PLC, and the Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors for the progression of liver fibrosis. ResultsA total of 307 patients were enrolled, with a mean age of 50.0 years, and the male patients accounted for 80.5%. After 48 weeks of treatment with the adjusted NAs regimen, 254 patients (82.7%) achieved CVR, and 53 patients (17.3%) still had LLV. For the LLV group, the incidence rate of PLC was 30.2% and the rate of liver fibrosis progression was 22.6%, while for the CVR group, the incidence rate of PLC was only 13.4%, and the rate of liver fibrosis progression was 7.5%. The multivariate regression analyses showed that LLV was an independent risk factor for the onset of PLC (hazard ratio=2.623, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.315 — 5.234, P=0.006) and the progression of liver fibrosis (odds ratio=3.213, 95%CI: 1.385 — 7.455, P=0.007). ConclusionActive adjustment of treatment is needed immediately after the diagnosis of LLV to improve CVR, and if LLV persists after treatment adjustment, it is necessary to enhance the monitoring of liver fibrosis progression and PLC, so as to facilitate early diagnosis and treatment.

BACKGROUND:After the internal fixation of cannulated screws in femoral neck fractures,because the affected limb is often unable to bear weight in the short term and the implants with high stiffness have a stress shielding effect on the fracture end,it is easy to cause osteoporosis of the affected limb and changes in the biomechanical distribution of the proximal femur,the incidence of osteonecrosis of the femoral head is high after surgery.At present,few studies have been conducted on the biomechanical effects of osteoporosis at the proximal end of the femur occurring after femoral neck fracture surgery on femoral neck fracture treated with cannulated screws. OBJECTIVE:Using finite element analysis,to investigate the biomechanical effects of osteoporosis occurring after femoral neck fracture surgery on femoral neck fracture treated with cannulated screws and explore the role of biomechanical factors in osteonecrosis of the femoral head. METHODS:Based on the obtained CT scan data of the femur in a patient with a femoral neck fracture,a proximal femoral model for internal fixation for femoral neck fracture was established by Mimics 19.0,3-Matic,UG 11.0,Hypermesh 14.0,and Abaqus software.One finite element model of the proximal femur without osteoporosis and three finite element models of the proximal femur with osteoporosis were analyzed using Abaqus software.The stress,contact pressure,displacement peak and cloud map under different components of the four models were measured and analyzed,and the internal stress changes and distribution of the femoral head were compared and analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The stresses and contact pressures of the femoral head and lower anterior cannulated screws varied more with the degree of osteoporosis.The peak displacement of the four models increased slowly with the degree of osteoporosis.By one-way analysis of variance,there was no significant effect of the degree of osteoporosis on the peak stress,contact pressure,and displacement of the different components.The internal stress distribution of the femoral head changed with the degree of osteoporosis.Changes in the biomechanical environment of the proximal femur have an important impact on osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

BackgroundPatients with depressive disorder commonly experience sleep disturbances. Previous studies have indicated that group exercise therapy is beneficial in alleviating depressive symptom among patients with depressive disorder. However, there is a lack of research on the impact of group exercise therapy on improving sleep quality in patients with depressive disorder. ObjectiveTo explore the impact of group exercise therapy on sleep quality in patients with acute mild-to-moderate depression during the acute phase, so as to provide references for clinically improving the sleep quality of patients with mild to moderate depressive disorder during the acute phase. MethodsFrom December 2018 to July 2021, patients with mild-to-moderate depressive disorder during the acute phase (n=40), who met the diagnostic criteria for depressive disorder according to International Classification of Diseases, tenth edition (ICD-10) ,were recruited from the outpatient clinic of Beijing Anding Hospital, Capital Medical University. All participants underwent an 8-week moderate-intensity group exercise therapy program comprising three sessions per week, each lasting 60 minutes. Assessments were conducted at baseline and after 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks of intervention using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Hamilton Depression Scale-17 item (HAMD-17) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The reduction scores at each time point relative to baseline treated as the dependent variables, time as the independent variable, baseline scores as covariates, with time as a fixed effect and baseline values as random effects. Data were analyzed using a linear mixed-effects model. ResultsThe PSQI scores of patients at baseline, 2, 4 , 6 and 8 weeks after the intervention were (10.62±5.12), (9.07±3.58), (7.39±3.66), (6.54±3.84) and (5.50±3.41), respectively. The results of linear mixed effect model analysis showed that after 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks of intervention, patients scored lower than baseline, with statistically significant differences observed in all cases (P<0.01). The HAMD-17 sleep fcctor scores at baseline, 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks were (2.25±1.56), (2.06±1.49), (1.36±1.27), (1.22±1.46) and (0.97±1.34), respectively. The results of linear mixed effects model analysis showed that the HAMD-17 sleep factor scores of 4, 6 and 8 weeks of intervention were lower than that of baseline, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05 or 0.01). The VAS scores at baseline, 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks after the intervention were (3.18±2.17), (4.74±2.22), (6.01±2.31), (6.54±2.16) and (7.90±1.64), respectively. The results of linear mixed effect model analysis showed that VAS scores of 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks of intervention were higher than baseline,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). ConclusionGroup exercise therapy may improve sleep quality and alleviate depressive symptoms in patients with mild-to-moderate depressive disorder during the acute phase.

Objective To investigate the relationship between two-lung ventilation (TLV) with single-lumen endotracheal tube (SLT), one-lung ventilation (OLV) with double-lumen endotracheal tube (DLT) and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after total thoracoscopic cardiac surgery. Methods The clinical data of patients who underwent totally thoracoscopic cardiac surgeries in the Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital from October 2019 to October 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into 2 group according to the type of endotracheal tube, including a SLT group and a DLT group. Baseline data, surgical variables and PPCs were compared. The influencing factors of PPCs in the two groups were analyzed by binary logistic regression analysis. Results Finally 349 patients were enrolled, including 180 males and 169 females with an average age of (50.0±14.8) years. There were 219 patients in the SLT group and 130 patients in the DLT group. There was no statistical difference in baseline data, surgical variables or PPCs between the two groups (P>0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that PPCs were related to body mass index in the SLT group (OR=0.778, 95%CI 0.637 to 0.951, P=0.014) and preoperative smoking history in the DLT group (OR=0.058, 95%CI 0.004 to 0.903, P=0.042). Conclusion For the patients who undergo totally thoracoscopic cardiac surgery, TLV with SLT and OLV with DLT show no significant association with PPCs. At the same time, PPCs are associated with body mass index in the SLT group, while associated with preoperative smoking history in the DLT group.

Objective:To evaluate the development of fetal cerebral sulci and gyrus and the blood perfusion in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM) by ultrasound.Methods:A total of 1 540 pregnant women with 28-34 weeks of pregnancy who underwent systematic screening in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2022 to October 2022 were prospectively selected, 100 pregnant women with GDM were selected as the GDM group. According to the effect of blood glucose control, the GDM group was divided into 2 groups: the satisfied control group (GDM group 1), and the dissatisfied control group (GDM group 2), with 50 cases in each group. At the same period, 50 healthy pregnant women at 28-34 weeks of gestation were enrolled as the control group. The differences of the sylvian fissure, parietooccipital sulci, calcarine sulci and cinguli sulci among the 3 groups were statistically analyzed. And the correlations between the deep of the brain cerebral sulci and gyrus and controlled blood glucose levels were evaluated. The umbilical artery pulsation index(UAPI), middle cerebral artery pulsation index(MCAPI) and ductus venosus pulsation index(DVPI) among the 3 groups were compared, and the differences in fetal blood perfusion among the 3 groups were evaluated.Results:There were no significant differences in the depths of the sylvian fissure, parietooccipital sulci, calcarine sulci and cinguli sulci between the control group and the GDM group 1 (all P>0.05), and they were larger than those of the GDM group 2 (all P<0.05). The depths of lateral fissure, parieto-occipital sulcus, cingulate sulcus and calcarine sulcus were negatively correlated with fasting blood glucose, 1 h and 2 h postprandial blood glucose (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in MCAPI, UAPI and DVPI between the control group and GDM1 group (all P>0.05). The MCAPI in GDM 2 group was lower than that in the control group and GDM 1 group, and the UAPI and DVPI values were higher than those in the control group and GDM1 group(all P<0.05). Conclusions:The maturity of fetal cerebral sulci and gyrus in GDM pregnant women is related to the blood glucose control of pregnant women. The change of blood perfusion caused by persistent hyperglycemia in pregnant women and intrauterine hypoxia may cause the development retardation of cerebral sulci and gyrus.
