Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effect and prognosis of percutaneous balloon kyphoplasty (PKP) for diabetic patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures.Methods:A total of 105 patients with diabetes mellitus complicated with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures who received diagnosis and treatment in our hospital from May. 2017 to Feb. 2020, who were followed up to Mar. 2022 were selected as the research subjects, and all were treated with PKP. Time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, incidence of secondary vertebral fracture, anterior height of injured vertebral body, Sagittal kyphosis Cobb angle, VAS score, and ODI index were investigated. The patients were divided into good prognosis group ( n=82) and poor prognosis group ( n=23) according to the presence or absence of secondary vertebral fractures during the follow-up period. Binary Logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors affecting the prognosis. Results:After PKP treatment, the efficiency of all 105 patients was 87.62% and the incidence of secondary vertebral fracture was 21.90%. The operative time was (83.52±16.85) min, the intraoperative blood loss was (32.11±1.52) ml, and the length of hospital stay was (10.62±1.65) d. The height of the anterior edge of the injured vertebra was (24.62±5.16) mm and (24.67±5.03) mm at the last follow-up and 3 months after surgery, respectively, higher than that before surgery ( t=15.21, 15.63, P=0.000). The Cobb angle of sagittal kyphosis was (10.03±1.27) ° and (10.10±1.25) °, respectively, and the VAS score was (3.11±0.52) and (1.00±0.11) points, respectively, 3 months after surgery and at the last follow-up. The ODI indexes were (11.25±2.85) % and (5.32±1.01) %, respectively, lower than those before surgery ( t3 months after surgery=28.84, 18.17, 29.21, tlast follow-up=25.68, 27.49, 42.78, P=0.000). There were significant differences in age, BMD, bone cement leakage, bone cement distribution and use of anti-osteoporosis drugs between the good prognosis group and the poor prognosis group ( t=4.03, 5.22, χ2=12.50, 22.694, 26.22, P=0.000). Logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=1.309, 95%CI=1.134-1.511, P=0.000), BMD ( OR=126.660, 95%CI=13.376-1199.376, P=0.000), bone cement leakage ( OR=4.698, 95%CI=1.306-16.902, P=0.018), dense distribution of bone cement ( OR=9.697, 95%CI=2.679-34.869, P=0.001), no use of anti-osteoporosis drugs ( OR=7.586, 95%CI=2.197-26.193, P=0.001) was an independent risk factor for the prognosis of patients with diabetes complicated with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fracture. Conclusion:PKP has a high rate of excellence in the treatment of diabetes mellitus complicated with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures, but factors such as age, BMD, bone cement leakage, bone cement dense distribution, and no postoperative use of anti-osteoporotic drugs will increase risks of secondary fractures, which in turn affects their prognosis.

Objective:To explore the risk factors for the occurrence of thrombocytopenia (TCP) within 2 weeks after pediatric liver transplantation (LT) and examine the relationship between the occurrence of TCP and prognosis.Methods:From January 2021 to November 2021, clinical data were retrospectively reviewed for 162 pediatric LT recipients aged under 4 years at Organ Transplantation Center of Tianjin First Central Hospital.Based upon the lowest value of platelet count at Week 2 post-operation, they were assigned into two groups of TCP (n=90) and non-TCP (n=72). General preoperative profiles, intraoperative findings, postoperative complications, types of commonly used antibiotics, anticoagulant dosing and prognosis of two groups were compared.Univariate and multivariate analyses were utilized for examining the independent risk factors for TCP.Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted for examining the cut-off value of independent risk factors for diagnosing TCP.Results:Among them, 90 (55.56%) developed TCP within 2 weeks post-operation and 25(15.43%) developed TCP at Day 1 post-operation.The median preoperative platelet count was 178×10 9/L and the lowest value was 65×10 9/L at Day 3(1-4) post-operation with a declining rate of 63.5% and platelet count of recipient normalized at Day 6(4-7.25) post-operation.The results of univariate analysis showed statistically significant inter-group differences in operative duration[(574.43±80.53)min vs.(526.75±72.42)min], intraoperative blood loss[400(300, 550)ml vs.320(300, 400)ml], red blood cell transfusion[2(2, 3)U vs.2(1.5, 2.0)U], preoperative platelet count[178.5(141.75, 242.5)×10 9/L vs.257 (209.75, 357)×10 9/L], postoperative infection rate[27.8%(25/90)vs.13.9%(10/72)] and dosing rates of piperacillin sodium and tazobactam sodium[8.9%(8/90)vs.25.0%(18/72)] ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed statistically significant inter-group differences in operative duration( P=0.008), red blood cell transfusion( P=0.01), preoperative platelet count( P<0.01) and postoperative infection rate ( P=0.02). The results of ROC curve analysis showed that the cut-off values of operative duration, red blood cell transfusion and preoperative platelet count were 535 min, 2.75 U and 183.5×10 9/L respectively.Length of ICU stay was higher in TCP group than that in non-TCP group, and the difference was statistically significant [4(3, 5) vs.3(3, 4) day, P=0.006]. Conclusions:LT children aged under 4 years with intraoperative red blood cell transfusion>2.75 U, operative duration>535 min and preoperative platelet count<183.5×10 9/L are more likely to develop post-transplantation TCP.And occurrence of TCP prolongs the length of ICU stay in pediatric recipients.

Objective To explore the clinical value of neurography and nerve root sealing in treatment of multilevel lumbar spinal stenosis with lumbar instability using Endo-P/TLIF.Methods A total of 60 patients with multi-segment lumbar spinal stenosis and lumbar instability hospitalized in our hospital were included in this study From January 1,2022 to June 21,2022.All patients underwent nerve root closure angiography before surgery to confirm the responsible segments,and then the responsible segments were treated with Endo-P/TLIF.The patients were followed up for 6 months.The basic information on the age,gender,course of disease,surgical time,intraop-erative bleeding,hospitalization time,and off-bed ambulation time was collected.Then the data on VAS score,ODI score,JOA score,lumbar lordosis angle,intervertebral height,dural cross-sectional area,sacral inclination angle,pelvic projection angle,and pelvic inclination angle before,right after,3 months and 6 months after the operation were calculated.The number of responsible segments indicated by MRI and confirmed by nerve root closure angiography and the number of the single segment,double segments,3 segments,and above finally decompressed were statisti-cally analyzed.Results All patients went through the surgery safely.During the 6-month follow-up,one patient did not return to the hospital for consultation on time,and one patient was out of contact.Finally,the follow-up data of 58 patients were completely collected for statistical analysis.Fifty-five cases were remarkably improved,2 better,and 1 moderately,6 months after the operation,with a total effectiveness rate of 100%.The number of unilateral and bilateral single responsible segments confirmed by nerve root angiography and sealing was significantly larger than by MRI(P<0.05),but the number of unilateral and unilateral double,or multiple responsible segments was signifi-cantly smaller(P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in terms of postoperative VAS score,ODI score,JOA score,VAS score,ODI score,JOA score,lumbar lordosis angle,intervertebral height,dural cross-sectional area,sacral inclination angle,pelvic inclination angle as compared to the preoperative data(P＜0.05).The pelvic projection angle was insignificantly improved as compared to the preoperative condition(P ? 0.05).Conclusion The accurate diagnosis with selective neurography and nerve root sealing improves the confirmation of responsible nerve segments before operation.Base on the accurate diagnosis,multi-segment lumbar spinal canal stenosis with lumbar instability can be effectively treated with Endo-P/TLIF,the responsible segment decompressed,trauma and bleeding reduced,hospital stay shortened,spinal physiological curvature well recovered,and clinical efficacy improved.Therefore,the method is worthy of extensive application in clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE To explore the role of Th1/Th2 immune balance in the signal transduction of H1R, PAR-2/TRPV1 itch signal pathway and the intervention mechanism of Fuxian lotion. METHODS There were 60 BALB/c mice randomly divided into 6 groups after 3 days of adaptive feeding, with 10 mice in each group, which were blank control group, model control group, high, medium and low dose group of Fuxian lotion(36, 12, 4 mg·cm-2) and positive drug control group(1 mg·cm-2). Except for the blank control group, all other groups were sensitized with 7% and 0.5% 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene acetone olive oil solution for multiple times. The abdomen and ears of mice in the blank group were coated with acetone solution for control. The drug was administered 24 hours after challenge, twice a day for 10 consecutive days. The ear thickness and the degree of mice ear swelling were measured and scored. The times of scratching the ears of mice were counted. The spleen index was calculated. HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes in mice ear tissue. The serum TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-31 levels were detected by ELISA, the mRNA level of the above immune factors was detected by realtime PCR, and the expression of H1R, PAR-2 and TRPV1 was detected by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS Compared with the blank control group, the ear thickness, ear allergic reaction score, scratching index, the spleen index of mice in the model control group was significantly increased(P<0.01), the TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-31 protein level and mRNA level were significantly increased(P<0.01), and the contents of H1R, PAR-2 and TRPV1 were significantly increased(P<0.01). There were obvious eczema like pathological changes in chronic dermatitis. Compared with the model control group, Fuxian lotion could effectively reduce the degree of auricle swelling, the score of ear allergic reaction, scratch index and spleen index, significantly reduce the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-31 protein level and mRNA level(P<0.01). The content of H1R in the high dose group of Fuxian lotion, the medium dose group of Fuxian lotion and the positive drug control group was significantly reduced(P<0.01), and the content of PAR-2 and TRPV1 in all dose groups of Fuxian lotion and the positive drug control group were significantly reduced(P<0.01). CONCLUSION Fuxian lotion can improve chronic dermatitis and eczema by regulating the Th1/Th2 immune balance, down regulating the characteristic immune factor TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-31 and interfering with the itch signal pathway H1R, PAR-2/TRPV1 transmission, so as to anti-itching and inhibit inflammatory response.

Objective:To investigate the difference of curative effect between zero-profile bridge-shaped locking cage (ROI-C) and anterior cage combined with titanium plate fixation in the treatment of two-level and three-level cervical spondylotic myelopathy.Methods:A total of 85 patients (43 males and 42 females), aged 52.3±8.0 years (range from 28 to 66 years) with bi- and three-level cervical spondylotic myelopathy who received surgical treatment from June 2017 to October 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 63 cases of two levels and 22 cases of three levels. 45 cases were treated with zero-profile bridge-shaped locking cage ROI-C (ROI-C group), and 40 cases with anterior cage combined with titanium plate fixation (titanium plate group). The main observation indicators include operation time, intraoperative blood loss, cervical Cobb angle, fusion segment Cobb angle, average intervertebral height, pain visual analogue scale (VAS), Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) Score and neck disability index (NDI).Results:All of 85 patients were followed up for 16.9±2.0 months (range 12 to 22 months). The operation time of two-level ROI-C group was 110.37±8.25 min, which was shorter than 139.5±10.54 min of titanium plate group; the intraoperative blood loss was 15.74±8.10 ml, which was less than 23.71±9.70 ml of titanium plate group; the operation time of three-level ROI-C group was 130.00±5.70 min, which was shorter than 162.83±5.59 min of titanium plate group, while the difference in the intraoperative blood loss between the two groups had no statistical significance. One year after operation, Cobb angle of cervical vertebra in double and three-level ROI-C groups were 15.31°±1.55° and 15.20°±0.42°, respectively, which were largerthan 11.23°±2.03° and 9.20°±1.14° before operation; in titanium plate group, they were 15.89°±1.13° and 16.08°±1.88°, which were higher than 11.25°±2.01° and 9.00°±1.60° before operation, and the differences had statistical significance. The differences between the two groups before operation and 1 year after operation had no statistical significance. One year after operation, the VAS scores of double and three-level ROI-C groups were 1.83±0.66 points and 2.60±0.52 points, respectively, which were less than the preoperative 7.49±0.51 points and 7.60±0.52 points; the titanium plate group was 1.79±0.50 points and 2.41±0.51 points, which were less than the preoperative 7.61±0.63 points and 7.42±0.52 points, and the differences had statistical significance. There was no significant difference between the two groups before operation and 1 year after operation. One year after operation, the JOA scores of double and three-level ROI-C groups were 15.00±0.84 points and 14.70±0.95 points, respectively, which were higher than the preoperative 7.20±0.87 points and 6.60±1.27 points; the scores of titanium plate group were 15.29±0.85 points and 14.83±0.58 points, which were higher than the preoperative 6.89±1.03 points and 6.92±0.67 points, and the differences had statistical significance. The differences between the two groups had no statistical significance. The postoperative JOA improvement rate was excellent. Postoperative dysphagia occurred in 1 case (2.22%, 1/45) in ROI-C group and 8 cases (20.00%, 8/40) in titanium plate group, and the difference in the incidence rate between two groups had statistical significance ( χ2=5.32, P=0.02). Conclusion:Both ROI-C and anterior cage combined with titanium plate fixation in the treatment of double and three-level cervical spondylotic myelopathy can achieve good short-term clinical efficacy, with shorter operation time and lower incidence rate of postoperative dysphagia using ROI-C.

Fracture vertebral body distribution: T₁₀ 2 cases, T₁₁ 4 cases, T₁₂ 4 cases, L₁ 10 cases, L₂ 4 cases, L₃ 1 case, L₄ 1 case and L₅ 2 cases. The operation time, injected cement volume, in-traoperative blood loss were recorded and analyzed. Preoperative, postoperative 1 week and 3 months visual analogue scale scores and oswestry disability index were adopted to value the clinical improvements. Preoperative, postoperative 1 week and 3 months relative vertebral height and kyphosis correction, and the cement leakage rate were measured and analyzed. Results: There was no significant difference in the data of gender, age, VAS scores, ODI and distribution of fracture vertebrae among the three groups (P>0.05), and the baseline data was comparable. The average VAS score in the percutaneous curved vertebroplasty group was 2.3±0.5 at 1 week after surgery, that of the routine unipedicular PVP group was 2.4±0.4 and that of the routine bipe-dicular PVP group was 2.4±0.4; the average ODI in the percutaneous curved vertebroplasty group was 19.8%±3.9%, that of the routine unipedicular PVP group was 20.0%±4.1% and that of the routine bipedicular PVP group was 19.9%±3.8%; they were lower than the preoperative data, which were statistically significant (P<0.001). The average relative vertebral height in the percutaneous curved vertebroplasty group was 48.99%±9.23% at 3 months after surgery, that of the routine unipedicular PVP group was 47.11%±10.12% and that of the routine bipedicular PVP group was 46.71%±11.16%; the average kyphosis cor-rection in the percutaneous curved vertebroplasty group was 6.21%±1.94%, that of the routine unipedicular PVP group was 5.22%±2.07% and that of the routine bipedicular PVP group was 5.97%±2.09%; there was 1 cement leakage case in the per-cutaneous curved vertebroplasty group; those of the routine unipedicular PVP group were 4 cases and those of the routine bipe-dicular PVP group were 6 cases; there was no significant difference among the three groups (P>0.05). Operation time 39.10±2.00 min vs 38.70±1.70 min, injected cement volume 3.60±0.11 ml vs 3.50±0.13 ml and blood loss 5.10±0.30 ml vs 5.00±0.40 ml of the percutaneous curved vertebroplasty group and the routine unipedicular PVP group were less than those of the routine bipedicular PVP group, which were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclution Percutaneous curved vertebroplasty could achieve satisfactory clinical outcomes for OVCFs, with advantages of less operation time, less blood loss, limited X-ray expo-sure, less injected cement volume, and more balanced augmentation for stabilization of the affected vertebrae and total verte-bral column.

Objective: To explore the association between single nucleotide polymorphism rs12632942 in SCN10A exon and oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (OXLIPN) in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients receiving chemotherapy. Methods:Atotal of 319 cases of blood samples from CRC patients receiving chemotherapy regimen with Oxaliplatin (OXL) were collected from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, and Guangzhou Baiyun District Hospital of Chinese Medicine during January 2011 and June 2013. DNAwas routinely extracted, and PCR amplification was performed to analyze the genotype of rs12632942; and OXLIPN of patients was also evaluated. The association between rs12632942 genotype and OXLIPN was analyzed by χ2 test and multivariate logistic regression model. Results: The genotypes of rs12632942 of 319 CRC patients:AAof 134 cases,AG of 156 cases and GG of 29 cases; and the genotype distribution of rs12632942 was in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg equiliberum (P>0.05). χ2 test showed that rs12632942AG+GG genotype was associated with Ⅱ-Ⅳ degree OXLIPN (P<0.01). Multivariate logistic regression model showed that rs12632942 AG + GG genotype was an independent risk factor for Ⅱ-Ⅳ degree OXLIPN（OR=2.044； 95%CI=1.231-3.392; P<0.01） . Conclusion: Colorectal cancer patients with SCN10A exon polymorphism rs12632942AG + GG genotype were susceptible to Ⅱ-Ⅳ degree OXLIPN.

Objective: By investigating the genotype and evolutionary variation of hantavirus (HV) in Tiantai county, a national surveillance site for hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) was set in Zhejiang province, from 2011 to 2018, to reveal the molecular epidemiological characteristics of hantavirus (HV) in Tiantai. Methods: Total RNA was extracted from ultrasound treated HV antigen- positive rat lung samples in Tiantai from 2011 to 2018. After cDNA was prepared, nested PCR was used to amplify partial sequence of M fragments by using specific primers of HV. The sequences of HV in Tiantai from 2011 to 2018 were compared with other known HV sequences in order to identify the genotype and analyze the evolution and variation of the virus. Results: In 67 HV antigen-positive lung specimens, 31 were positive in nested PCR amplification with type-specific primers, including 30 Hantaan virus (HTNV) positive samples, 1 Seoul virus (SEOV) positive sample, and all the 31 samples were from Apodemus agrarius. The phylogenetic tree based on partial M segment was divided into monophyletic group, 30 strains were distributed in HTNV group and 1 was in SEOV group. The HTNV strain Tiantai T2018-130 was independently in one branch, sharing 84.8%-87.9% homology with other strains both at home and abroad, including 29 strains in HTNV group in Tiantai. The other 29 HTNV strains in Tiantai showed closer relationship. The SEOV strain T2016-31 from Apodemus agrarius showed closer relationship with previous strains of SEOV, Tiantai ZT71, ZT10 and Z37 strains of Wenzhou, Zhejiang province. Conclusions HTNV, the main genotype of HV in Tiantai of Zhejiang province, showed obvious geographic clustering, but the strain T2018-130 was distinct from the others in Tiantai. Meanwhile, by sequence analysis, we confirmed that The SEOV strain T2016-31 existed in in Apodemus agrarius, indicating there was a phenomenon of "spillover" between virus and host in SEOV evolution.
