Objective To establish a foot-weightlifting shoe coupling model,investigate the biomechanical effects of midsole material variations during pull phase of the snatch,optimize the key parameters of weightlifting shoes,and reduce the risk of foot and ankle injuries in athletes.Methods The foot-weightlifting shoe finite element model was constructed using the finite element method for simulation.Kinematic and dynamic data of the snatch movement were obtained using the sports biomechanics methods.Statistical methods were employed to validate the effectiveness of the model and compare the impact of different midsole materials on foot stress distribution,bone stress,soft tissue stress,and midsole strain of the athletes during pull phase of the snatch.Results When the midsole thermoplastic polyurethane(TPU)had an elastic modulus of 20 MPa,the peak foot stress was minimized.As the elastic modulus of the midsole TPU increased,the foot peak stress also increased.Bone stress was concentrated in the third,fourth,and fifth metatarsals of the forefoot,with the fourth metatarsal showing the peak stress.As the elastic modulus of the midsole increased,the peak stress in the metatarsal area gradually decreased,the peak stress in soft tissues gradually increased,and the strain in midsole decreased.Conclusions Medium-hardness midsole materials(with an elastic modulus between 20-25 MPa)have an advantage in reducing foot pressure and preventing bone injuries in the foot and ankle.

Objective To prepare decellularized scaffolds from rabbit cartilage at various concentrations and assess their physicochemical properties and compatibility with stem cells to provide an experimental basis for cartilage repair.Methods Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)were cultured using the Percoll density gradient separation method,and this was followed by flow cytometric analysis and testing of their osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation capabilities.Cartilage pieces were excised from rabbit knees and hip joints and subjected to physical crushing,repeated freeze-thaw cycles,and mixed enzymatic digestion for decellularization.To compare and observe the physicochemical properties of the decellularized scaffolds at different concentrations,three groups of scaffolds(labelwd A,B,and C)were designed with concentrations of 100％,50％and 30％,with three replicates each.Third-generation PKH26-labeled BMSCs were seeded onto optimally concentrated scaffolds and cultured for 1 week to observe cell growth.Results Flow cytometry detected BMSC surface antigens with positive expression of CD44 and CD90 and negative expression of CD45.Osteogenic induction stained with alizarin red showed red calcific nodules,and chondrogenic induction stained with alcian blue showed blue cartilaginous nodules.No apparent cell morphology was observed in the three groups of scaffolds stained with hematoxylin-eosin,and toluidine blue.There was a significant difference in DNA concentration between decellularized samples and non-decellularized scaffolds(P＜0.05).The content of glycosaminoglycans was slightly lower than the normal values.Significant differences were observed between the three groups of scaffolds in terms of pore size,water absorption,porosity,tensile strength,and Young's modulus(P＜0.05).After co-cultivation of stem cells with the scaffolds,cell adhesion was found to be good.Conclusions Percoll density gradient separation can obtain high-purity rabbit BMSCs,and the mixed decellularization method is superior.Group B scaffolds were the most suitable for tissue-engineered cartilage repair.BMSCs cultured in vitro grew well on Group B scaffolds.

OBJECTIVE To develop a magnetic resonance(MRI) imaging radiomics and clinical factor model to predict recurrence and metastasis in patients with primary stage Ⅱ-Ⅳa nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) and to validate its predictive effect on adjuvant chemotherapy(AC) outcomes. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on 135 patients with stage Ⅱ to Ⅳa NPC diagnosed in Longgang Otolaryngology Hospital of Shenzhen City from February 2018 to October 2021. After receiving standard synchronous radiotherapy and chemotherapy at our hospital,some patients received induction chemotherapy and/or AC based on cisplatin/nedaplatin. The imaging features of enhanced MRI sequences were extracted using PyRadiomics platform. Using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO) algorithm to filter features associated with recurrence or metastasis,a clinical radiomics model(CRM) was constructed by Cox multivariate analysis in a training cohort and validated in a validation cohort. All patients were divided into high-risk and low-risk groups based on the model's median Rad score. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to compare 3-year recurrence or metastasis free survival(RMFS) in patients with AC in high-risk group and low risk-group. RESULTS A total of 960 imaging features were extracted. The CRM consists of 9 features(6 imaging features and 3 clinical factors). In the training cohort,the area under the CRM curve(AUC) of 3-year RMFS was 0.867(P<0.001),and the sensitivity and specificity were 90.32％ and 79.66％,respectively. In the validation cohort,the AUC was 0.836(P<0.001) and the sensitivity and specificity were 100.0％ and 71.43％,respectively. The 3-year RMFS in high-risk and low-risk groups was 42.86％(27/63) and 94.44％(68/72)(log rank=50.818,P<0.001),respectively. Among CRM high-risk patients,3-year RMFS was significantly better in patients who received AC than those who did not(log rank=6.204,P=0.013). CONCLUSION CRM based on 3 clinical factors and 6 MRI features provides a non-invasive method for predicting the prognosis of NPC,which may help guide treatment decisions for clinical adjuvant chemotherapy,but further external verification is needed.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the prognostic value of pre-treatment serum lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)levels in patients with locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC)treated with salvage intensity-modulated radiotherapy(IMRT)and to determine its association with rT staging.METHODS The records of 97 patients with locally relapsed and non-metastatic NPC who received salvage IMRT treatment in our center from January 2018 to April 2022 were collected,including 51 patients who died,18 patients with distant metastases,30 patients with local failure,and 67 patients with prognostic adverse events(death,distant tumors/local metastases).Clinical data,local failure-free survival(LFFS),distant metastasis-free survival(DMFS)and overall survival(OS)were obtained from all patients,and the relationship between LDH and the prognosis of salvage IMRT therapy in NPC patients was analyzed.RESULTS The serum LDH level before salvage IMRT was significantly higher in the death[221.25(178.24,339.13)U/L vs.124.82(79.0,159.50)U/L,Z=-5.122],local failure[230.75(170.89,394.50)U/L vs.157.85(91.78,216.95)U/L,Z=-3.442],distant metastasis[261.62(153.55,465.50)U/L vs.168.98(101.75,237.75)U/L,Z=-2.478]and poor prognosis group[220.05(167.20,506.16)U/L vs.93.45(69.95,154.35)U/L,Z=-6.018],and all P<0.05.Serum LDH levels were divided into dichotomous variables according to median values(≥177.50 U/L vs.<177.50 U/L),the Cox univariate model found that the hazard ratios of LDH affecting LFFS,DMFS,OS and toxic-related death(TRD)were 3.759(1.660-8.558),4.217(1.383-12.861),3.226(1.715-6.069),3.363(1.750-6.463),P<0.05.LDH remained an independent prognostic factor for LFFS,DMFS,OS,and TRD in multivariate regression analysis(P<0.05).Compared with patients with LDH<177.50 U/L,more patients in the LDH≥177.50 U/L group had local progression-related death,and the no LFFS stage,no DMFS stage and OS were shorter in the LDH≥177.50 U/L group(log rank=11.624,7.559,14.758),P<0.05.In predicting overall survival,adding LDH to the rT stage is preferable to the rT stage alone.CONCLUSION LDH is an important factor in predicting LFFS,DMFS,OS,and TRD after saving IMRT in patients with locally relapsed,non-metastatic NPC,and the value of LDH combined with rT staging in predicting overall survival is high.

Objective:To explore the application of the mandarin Chinese version of the Leicester cough questionnaire (LCQ-MC) in the chronic disease management of adult patients with severe asthma.Methods:Thirty patients with severe asthma without a smoking history who received treatment and chronic disease management in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from December 2018 to December 2020 and met the inclusion criteria were selected as the research subjects. Their clinical symptoms, LCQ-MC, asthma control test (ACT), mini asthma quality of life questionnaire (MiniAQLQ), visual analogue scale (VAS) and lung function test were recorded. The reliability of LCQ-MC and its correlation with ACT, MiniAQLQ, VAS and lung function were analyzed.Results:Among the 30 patients, there were 14 males and 16 females, with an average age of (50.5±10.5) years old and a medical history of (38.3±15.5) years. The main manifestations were cough which was observed in 29 cases (96.7%), wheezing in 25 cases (83.3%), nasal symptoms in 14 cases (46.7%) and chest tightness in 11 cases (36.7%). All lung functions were consistent with the diagnosis of asthma. The total score of LCQ-MC was (16.1±4.2), in which the physiological, psychological and social dimensions were (5.0±1.2), (5.6±1.6), (5.5±1.7), respectively; and ACT (18.9+5.5), MiniAQLQ (4.9±1.4), VAS (33.5±32.4). The Cronbach′s α for the questionnaire was more than 0.70, and the results were positively correlated with ACT and MiniAQLQ ( r=0.553, 0.593, P=0.002, 0.001), negatively correlated with VAS ( r=-0.762, P<0.001). The correlations between LCQ-MC and these scores were consistent with the results after 6 months. Conclusion:Cough is an important symptom of severe asthma, and LCQ-MC can be effectively used for evaluation and chronic disease management of adult patients with severe asthma.

Objective To investigate the prevalence rate of non-obese fatty liver disease and its influencing factors, and to provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of fatty liver disease. Methods A total of 23 545 individuals who underwent physical examination in Karamay Central Hospital from January to December 2015 and had complete data of abdominal ultrasound, body mass index (BMI), age, and sex were screened out to analyze the prevalence rate of fatty liver disease, and 7484 individuals with normal BMI who had complete data of triglyceride (TG), fasting blood glucose, and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were further screened out to perform a multivariate analysis. The 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 non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups; the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate independent influencing factors for non-obese fatty liver disease. Results In 2015, the prevalence rate of fatty liver disease was 30.2% (7116/23 545) among the individuals who underwent physical examination in Karamay Central Hospital. A stratified analysis based on BMI showed that the individuals with emaciation, normal BMI, overweight, and obesity had a prevalence rate of 0.8% (6/706), 9.3% (919/9899), 38.4% (3404/8870), and 68.5% (2787/4070), respectively (all P < 0.05), and male individuals had a significantly higher prevalence rate of fatty liver disease than female individuals (all P < 0.05). Among the 919 patients with non-obese fatty liver disease, young, middle-aged, and elderly patients accounted for 40.7% (374/919), 46.1% (424/919), and 13.2% (121/919), respectively. For the individuals with normal BMI, there was no significant difference in the prevalence rate of fatty liver disease between middle-aged and elderly individuals (14.5% vs 16.8%, P > 0.05), while both of them had a significantly higher prevalence rate than the young individuals (14.5%/16.8% vs 6.0%, P < 0.05). Young and middle-aged male individuals had a significantly higher prevalence rate of fatty liver disease than their female counterparts ( χ 2 =99.40 and 43.29, both P < 0.001), while the elderly male individuals had a significantly lower prevalence rate than their female counterparts ( χ 2 =9.81, P =0.002). For the individuals with normal BMI, the individuals with normal TG had a prevalence rate of fatty liver disease of 5.0% (311/6273), while those with elevated TG had a prevalence rate of 26.8% (325/1211), with a significant difference between the two groups ( χ 2 =624.90, P < 0.001). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, BMI, ALT, fasting blood glucose, TG, and serum uric acid level were independent influencing factors for fatty liver disease in individuals with normal BMI (all P < 0.001). Conclusion There is a relatively high prevalence rate of non-obese fatty liver disease among individuals undergoing physical examination in Karamay Central Hospital, and 61.5% of the patients with non-obese fatty liver disease have glucose or lipid metabolic disorders. Serum TG level may be used as a simple and effective screening index for non-obese fatty liver disease.
