Objective:To investigate the efficacy and adverse reactions of ticagrelor combined with atorvastatin in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction (ACI).Methods:A total of 80 patients with ACI who were diagnosed and treated in Anhui Suixi County Hospital from October 2021 to October 2022 were selected retrospectively and randomly divided into the control group and observation group, each group with 40 cases. The patients in the control group were treated with routine basic treatment and atorvastatin for ACI. The patients in the observation group was treated with ticagrelor on the basis of the control group. The clinical efficacy, neurological function, daily living ability, platelet function (platelet count, platelet inhibition rate), inflammatory factors including high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and adverse reactions of the two groups were compared.Results:The total effective rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group: 92.50%(37/40) vs. 72.50% (29/40), there was statistical differences ( P<0.05). After treatment, the score of National Institute of Health Stroke Scale of the observation group was lower than that of the control group: (9.37 ± 2.91) points vs. (14.20 ± 3.39) points, and the score of Barthel index scale (BI) was higher than that of the control group: (72.26 ± 13.27) points vs. (58.93 ± 9.43) points, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). After treatment, the platelet count and platelet adenosine diphosphate (ADP) inhibition rate of the observation group were higher than those of the control group: (284.65 ± 41.58) × 10 9/L vs. (210.46 ± 36.12) × 10 9/L, (79.43 ± 16.42)% vs. (62.40 ± 13.95)%, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). After treatment, the serum hs-CRP and IL-6 levels of the observation group were lower than those of the control group: (11.64 ± 2.96) mg/L vs. (19.75 ± 4.57) mg/L, (4.26 ± 0.93) ng/L vs. (8.95 ± 1.83) ng/L, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups after treatment ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Ticagrelor combined with atorvastatin has a better therapeutic effect on ACI, which can effectively improve the neurological deficit and the ability of self-care.

Objective:To investigate the radiation dose and fractionation regimens for limited stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC) in Chinese radiation oncologists.Methods:Over 500 radiation oncologists were surveyed through questionnaire for radiation dose and fractionation regimens for LS-SCLC and 216 valid samples were collected for further analysis. All data were collected by online questionnaire designed by WJX software. Data collection and statistical analysis were performed by SPSS 25.0 statistical software. The differences in categorical variables among different groups were analyzed by Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test. Results:Among 216 participants, 94.9% preferred early concurrent chemoradiotherapy, 69.4% recommended conventional fractionation, 70.8% preferred a total dose of 60 Gy when delivering conventional radiotherapy and 78.7% recommended 45 Gy when administering hyperfractionated radiotherapy.Conclusions:Despite differences in LS-SCLC treatment plans, most of Chinese radiation oncologists prefer to choose 60 Gy conventional fractionated radiotherapy as the main treatment strategy for LS-SCLC patients. Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO), National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) and Chinese Medical Association guidelines or expert consensus play a critical role in guiding treatment decision-making.

Accurate classification of the acetabular injuries and appropriate treatment plan are great challenges for orthopedic surgeons because of the irregular anatomical structure of the acetabulum and aggregation of important vessels and nerves around it. Letournel-Judet classification system has been widely applied to classify acetabular fractures. However, there are several limitations, including incomplete inclusion of fracture types, difficulty in understanding and insufficient guidance for surgical treatment, etc. Serious complications such as traumatic arthritis are common due to wrong classification and diagnosis and improper selection of surgical strategy, which brings a heavy burden to the society and families. Three-column classification, based on anatomic characteristics, has advantages of containing more fracture types and being easy to understand, etc. To solve the problems existing in the diagnosis and treatment process based on Letournel-Judet classification, achieve accurate diagnosis and treatment of patients with acetabular fractures, and obtain satisfactory prognosis, the Orthopedic Trauma Emergency Center of Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University and the Trauma Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Orthopedic Association organized experts from relevant fields to formulate the Expert consensus on the accurate diagnosis and treatment of acetabular fractures based on three-column classification ( version 2023) in terms of principles of evidence-based medicine. Based on the three-column classification, 15 recommendations were proposed, covering the diagnosis, treatment, complication prevention and management, etc, so as to provide reference for accurate diagnosis and treatment of acetabular fractures.

Objective:
To explore the effect of tanshinone IIA on neuronal apoptosis in the compressed spinal cord and its molecular mechanism by establishing a spinal cord compression model.
Methods:
Twenty-four SD rats weighing 250-300 g were the experimental animals. The spinal cord compression model was established by clamping the spinal cord with arterial clamp. Six rats in each group were randomly selected and randomly divided into sham group (Sham group, given intraperitoneal injection of normal saline at the same dose once a day) and spinal cord compression injury group (SCI group, given normal salts). Water intraperitoneal injection, once a day), tanshinone IIA group (TAN group, 30 mg/kg tanshinone IIA intraperitoneal injection, once a day), LY2904002 group (LY group, 0.3 mg/kg LY294002 intraperitoneal injection, 5 min after 30 mg/kg tanshinone IIA intraperitoneal injection, once 1 d). After 3 d of intervention, the motor function of rats were evaluated by inclined plane test and BBB score. The expression of apoptotic genes and PI3K/AKT signaling molecules in the compressed spinal cord were detected by qPCR, immunohistochemistry and Western blot.
Results:
The BBB score 3.31±0.45 points, inclined angle 9.31°±1.02°, GSK-3β 0.35±0.06, CyclinD1 0.25±0.06, Bcl-2 0.38±0.06, p-PI3K 0.32±0.05, p-AKT 0.29±0.07 protein expression in SCI group were lower than those in Sham group. The protein expression of Caspase-9 3.27±0.54 and Caspase-3 2.73±0.35 in SCI group was higher than that in Sham group. The BBB score 9.31±1.02 points, inclined angle 24.95°±3.52°, GSK-3β 0.74±0.09, CyclinD1 0.69±0.11, Bcl-2 0.83±0.13, p-PI3K 0.77±0.11, p-AKT 0.69±0.08 in TAN group were higher than those in SCI group BBB score 3.31 ±0.45 points, inclined angle 9.31°±1.02°, GSK-3β 0.35±0.06, CyclinD1 0.25±0.06, Bcl-2 0.38±0.06, p-PI3K 0.32±0.05, p-AKT 0.29±0.07. The protein expression levels of Caspase-9 1.78±0.22 and Caspase-3 1.64±0.2 in TAN group were lower than those in SCI group 3.27±0.54 and Caspase-3 2.73±0.35. The BBB score, oblique angle and the expression of GSK-3β 0.43±0.07, CyclinD1 0.38±0.06, Bcl-2 0.49±0.09 in LY group were lower than those in TAN group. The protein expression of Caspase-9 2.54±0.38 and Caspase-3 2.25±0.37 in LY group were higher than TAN group.
Conclusion
Tanshinone IIA can inhibit the apoptosis of spinal cord tissue and alleviate the spinal cord injury in spinal cord compression rats by activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE: To summarize and analyze the diagnostic ideas of new occupational lung tumors in Guangdong Province.METHODS: According to the Law of the People′s Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Occupational Disease and the GBZ 94-2002 Diagnostic Criteria of Occupational Cancer, the key diagnostic points of 6 new occupational lung tumors diagnosed in Guangdong Province from 2010 to 2011 were analyzed. RESULTS: There were 9 cases of 6 new kinds of new occupational tumors were diagnosed in Guangdong Province in 2010-2011. The cases included 3 occupational lung cancer of coke oven workers, 2 occupational lung cancer caused by asbestos, 1 occupational mesothelioma caused by asbestos, 1 occupational lung cancer caused by arsenate, 1 occupational lung cancer caused by chromate salt, and 1 occupational lung cancer caused by asphalt. During the process, the diagnosis was based on the principles of the comprehensive analysis and the attribution diagnosis, combined with occupational history, occupational disease hazard exposure history, clinical data and auxiliary examination results. If the patients were diagnosed with a primary tumor, the patients′ exposure history to occupational carcinogens should be tracked, traced and confirmed, and the diagnosis should be confirmed by referring to the list of occupational carcinogens and literature reports of the International Labor Organization, and not limited to only the personnel in a particular industry. CONCLUSION: During the diagnostic process of occupational tumors, attention should be paid to confirm the exposure history of occupational carcinogen. The key is to determine the exposure of corresponding occupational carcinogen, the route and the time of exposure and the incubation period.

561.80,656.31,P<0.05].(2) Incidence of cholelithiasis:all 77 755 participants were observed for (6.8±2.1)years,3 757 were diagnosed as new-onset cholelithiasis,with a cumulative incidence of new-onset cholelithiasis of 4.5%.The cumulative incidences of new-onset cholelithiasis in the never,past,light,moderate and heavy groups were respectively 5.1%,4.9%,3.7%,3.4% and 3.3%,showing a statistically significant difference among groups (x2=83.14,P<0.05).The cumulative incidence of new-onset cholelithiasis in the never group was significantly different from that in the past,light,moderate and heavy groups (x2 =18.34,40.58,45.41,48.44,P<0.05).The cumulative incidence of new-onset cholelithiasis in the past group was significantly different from that in the light,moderate and heavy groups (x2 =18.72,20.47,25.41,P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the cumulative incidence of new-onset cholelithiasis among the light,moderate and heavy groups (x2=8.47,12.41,P<0.05) and no statistically significant difference between the moderate and heavy groups (x2=0.85,P>0.05).(3) Risk factors analysis affecting new-onset cholelithiasis:results of COX proportional hazards regression models showed that risks of new-onset cholelithiasis in the light,moderate and heavy groups were reduced compared with never group after adjustment of gender,age,TC,TG,BMI,hypertension,diabetes,smoking and physical exercise (HR=0.88,0.82,0.73,95%CI:0.79-0.98,0.76-0.89,0.64-0.83,P<0.05).(4) Comparisons of the fitting degree of alcohol consumption on newonset cholelithiasis model:multivariate model was constructed after adding risk factors of gender,age,BMI,TG,TC,hypertension,diabetes mellitus,smoking and physical exercise,and-2Log L and AIC were 76 331.83 and 76 353.83 for the multivariate model.Then drinking variable was added into multivariate model,and the-2Log L and AIC of the multivariate model+drinking model were 76 307.86 and 76 337.86,respectively,with statistically significant differences (x2=23.97,P<0.05).Conclusion Alcohol consumption is an independent protective factor for new-onset cholelithiasis,and the risk of cholelithiasis is decreased with increasing alcohol intake.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the intervening effects of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells(BMMSCs) for pulmonary fibrosis of rats exposed to silica dust at different stages. METHODS: Specific pathogen free SD rats were randomly divided into model group,2-week group,4-week group and control group with 6 rats in each group(half males and half females). Rats of the first three groups were one-time endotracheally injected with 0. 5 mL aseptic silica suspension at 30 g/L mass concentration. Rats of control group were injected with 0. 5 mL 0. 90% sodium chloride solution. Rats of 2-week group and 4-week group were injected with 0. 5 mL BMMSCs suspension with cell density was 5 × 10~9/L at 2 weeks and 4 weeks respectively after silica dust exposure,while model group and control group were injected with aseptic 0. 90% sodium chloride solution in the same volume. After that all rats were examined by lung computed tomography(CT) scan,pathological sections were observed,lung coefficient were measured,lung tissue hydroxyproline(HYP) content and serum transforming growth factor β1(TGF-β1) concentration were investigated at the 12 th week after silica dust exposure. RESULTS: Lung CT image showed clean lung field and clear pulmonary parenchyma in control group.Multiple and diffused high density granular shadows of different size and streak/reticular fiber shadows in model group;diffused distribution of very small granular shadows in 2-week group; granular shadows and local reticular fiber shadows in 4-week group,and either the size or the area of granular shadows was smaller than model group. The lung CT value,lung coefficient,lung tissue HYP content and serum TGF-β1 concentration of model group,2-week group and 4-week group were higher than those of control group(P < 0. 05). The lung CT value,lung tissue HYP content and serum TGF-β1 concentration of control group,2-week group,4-week group and model group were elevated in turn(P < 0. 05),while the lung coefficient of model group and 4-week group was higher than that of 2-week group respectively(P < 0. 05).CONCLUSION: BMMSCs could delay pulmonary fibrosis caused by silica dust,and the protective effect is better at early stage than later stage of fibrosis.

Objective To observe the protective effect of gradual ischemic postconditioning (IP) capable of improving reperfusion on reperfusion injury in patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEAMl) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI).Methods 102 in-patients with STEAMI undergoing PPCI in the Department of Cardiology in the First People's Hospital of Kunshan City Affiliated to Jiangsu University from February 2011 to August 2014 were enrolled in this study. They were divided into three groups by a random number table: IP group (32 cases), gradual IP group (30 cases) and routine reperfusion group (40 cases). In IP group, after the opening of the infarction related blood vessel, ischemic postconditioning within the first minute of arterial reperfusion was made through three episodes of 1 minute inflation and 1 minute pressure withdrawn of an angioplasty balloon, and then persistent reperfusion was carried out. In the gradual IP group, the patients received three times of gradual angioplasty balloon inflation and denation, 1 minute/1minute, 30 seconds/30 seconds and 15 seconds/15 seconds respectively, presenting the gradual change of IP time. In the routine reperfusion group, after the opening of blocked blood vessel, the patients underwent routine PCI to persistently recover the coronary artery blood supply. The changes of related lead ST segment regression (Sum-STR), incidence of reperfusion arrhythmia, corrected thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) franle count (CTFC), peaks of MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK-MB), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and frequency of adverse events in follow-up period were compared among the three groups.Results The baseline characteristics were comparable in three groups. The incidence of ventricular premature beats was significantly lower in gradual IP group than that in routine reperfusion group [30.0% (9/30) vs. 55.0% (22/40),P < 0.05], and although theincidence of ventricular premature beats was lower in IP group than that in routine reperfusion group [34.4% (11/32) vs. 55.0% (22/40)], no statistically significant difference was found (P > 0.05). The incidence of ventricular tachycardia was significantly lower in IP and gradual IP groups than that in routine reperfusion group [15.6% (5/32), 13.3% (4/30) vs. 40.0% (16/40), bothP < 0.05]. The incidences of ventricular fibrillation, bradyarrhythmia and sinus arrest were lower in IP group and gradual IP group than those in routine reperfusion group, but no statistically significant differences were found (allP > 0.05). In IP group and gradual IP group, the Sum-STR incidence, CTFC, CK-MB peaks were lower than those of routine reperfusion group [Sum-STR: (56.7±18.3)%, (57.3±21.5)% vs. (44.6±21.6)%; CTFC: 25.47±5.37, 24.46±6.41 vs. 31.62±7.56; CK-MB peaks (U/L): 126.3±78.5, 121.6±82.5 vs. 147.4±72.5; allP < 0.05], the effect of gradual IP group being the best among the three groups. The levels of LVEF were slightly higher in IP and gradual IP groups than the level in routine reperfusion group (0.507±0.042, 0.511±0.062 vs. 0.497±0.062), but no statistically significant difference was found (bothP > 0.05). In routine reperfusion group, one patient died because the ventricular fibrillation could not be corrected and another one died of no-reflow during operation. Each group had 1 patient died during the 4 weeks of follow-up after operation, in the routine reperfusion group, one died of refractory heart failure, and the cause of death of other two patients, one in IP group and another in gradual IP group, was considered due to subacute thrombosis in stent. Major bleeding events were not found in each group.Conclusion Gradual IP can ameliorate myocardial reperfusion injury more significantly in patients with STEAMI undergoing PPCI.
