Objective To explore the relationship of visceral fat area (VFA) with glucolipid metabolism indexes and insulin resistance (IR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) complicated with obesity. Methods A total of 315 T2DM patients with obesity who were admitted to the hospital from April 2022 to August 2025 were retrospectively selected. The VFA of all patients was measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis method. According to VFA, the patients were classified into VFA≥100 cm² group (n=204) and VFA<100 cm² group (n=111). The glucolipid metabolism indexes [fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), triacylglycerol (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)] and IR index [homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance based on C-peptide (HOMA-IR(CP))] were detected and compared between both groups of patients. Spearman correlation method was utilized to analyze the correlation between VFA and glucolipid metabolism indexes and HOMA-IR(CP). The independent related factors of VFA were explored by logistic regression analysis. Results According to VFA results of 315 patients after admission, 204 cases (64.76%) had VFA≥100 cm² and 111 cases (35.24%) had VFA<100 cm². Compared with the VFA<100 cm² group, the FPG, HbA1c, TG, TC, LDL-C and HOMA-IR(CP) in the VFA≥100 cm² group were higher (P<0.05) while the HDL-C was lower (P<0.05). Spearman correlation revealed that VFA≥100 cm² was positively correlated with FPG, HbA1c, TG, TC, LDL-C and HOMA-IR(CP) (P<0.001), and was negatively correlated with HDL-C (P<0.001). After logistic regression analysis, it was found that FPG, TG, HDL-C, HOMA-IR(CP) and body mass index (BMI) were independent related factors of VFA≥100 cm² (P<0.05). Conclusion VFA is closely related to glucolipid metabolism and IR in T2DM patients with obesity. FPG, TG, HDL-C, HOMA-IR(CP) and BMI are independent related factors affecting VFA≥100 cm². However, given the cross-sectional design of this study, the causal timing of this association cannot be determined and needs to be further verified by prospective cohort studies.

Objective:To investigate affinity of monoclonal antibody(MAb)of different cardiac troponinⅠ(cTnⅠ)epi-topes to cTnⅠ-troponin C(cTnⅠ-TnC)antigen,and to screen novel cTnⅠ-specific antibodies for clinical detection kit development.Methods:Based on technology platform of microarray chemiluminescence immunoassay,cTnⅠ-TnC antigen spot sample hard matrix chip was used,mouse derived cTnⅠ MAb was used as antibody to be detected,HRP-sheep-anti-mouse-IgG was used as antibody to detect,and experimental conditions were optimized for anti-origin solution,antigen spot sample concentration and antibody to be detected concentration.Affinity of cTnⅠ MAb with different antigenic epitopes to cTnⅠ-TnC was detected by competition method.Graded concentrations of cTnⅠ-TnC were added to experimental group,and diluents of equal volume were added to control group.Reaction signals of different cTnⅠ MAb were detected and affinity constants were calculated.Results:Antigen spot sample liquid was P105,antigen spot sample concentration was 0.1 mg/ml,and antibody concentration to be detected was 80 ng/ml were optimal experi-mental conditions.20c6cc and 7B9cc MAb containing TnC antibodies had the best affinity,and 20c6cc MAb reached 3.18×106 L/mol.cTnⅠ MAb located at C-end of peptide chain in a.a.r 130～145,169～178 and 190～196 regions showed good affinity,among which MAb 625(a.a.r 169～178)was 6.37×105 L/mol,showing the strongest affinity among cTnⅠ MAb.Conclusion:MAb has good affinity with cTnⅠ-TnC antigen at C-end of cTnⅠ peptide chain a.a.r 130～145,169～178,190～196 and TnC region.Designing a new type of cTnⅠ complement antibody targeting this region can be a new way to solve negative interference of autoantibody and peptide proteolysis.

Cardial troponin I(cTnI)is the preferred serological marker for the diagnosis of myocardial injury.cTnI detection is based on antibody sandwich immunoassay.The epitopes of cTnI antigen targeted by detecting and capturing antibodies in different detection reagents are inconsistent,which easily leads to the heterogeneity of cTnI detection results.Endogenous interfering factors such as cTnI autoantibody,heterophile antibody,rheumatoid factor,ect,which can seriously interfere with the results of cTnI detection,and affecting the clinical diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of myocardial injury diseases.In this paper,the research progress of antibody sandwich immunoassay for cTnI and interference of endogenous factors on cTnI detection and solutions are reviewed to provide theoretical basis for differential diagnosis of abnormal cTnI detection results in clinical practice.

Madelung's disease is more common in male patients who drink alcohol. It can affect many parts of the body, but rarely affects scrotum. A case of Madelung's disease involving the scrotum was reported. The scrotum tumor was removed by operation and good results were obtained. No recurrence was found in the follow-up of 14 months. Surgical resection could be an effective treatment for this disease.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect and application value of simultaneous modulated accelerated radiotherapy (SMART) in the suspicious positive lymph nodes of head and neck.Methods:From January 2017 to February 2019, 60 patients with suspected positive lymph nodes in the head and neck in the Hanzhong Central Hospital of Shaanxi Province were divided into experimental group and control group according to different treatment plans, and 30 patients in each group were included. In the experimental group, 63.36 to 66.66 Gy patients were treated with SMART, while in the control group, 54.12 to 60.06 Gy patients were treated with conventional neck prophylactic radiation. In order to evaluate the feasibility of the method, the change of the short diameter of the largest cross section of the suspicious positive lymph nodes in the two groups were observed, and the adverse reactions in the treatment of the two groups were analyzed.Results:There was no significant difference between the two groups before treatment ( P>0.05). After treatment, the size of short diameter of lymph nodes in the two groups was smaller than that before treatment. The maximum short diameter of the largest cross section of lymph nodes in the experimental group was smaller than that before treatment: (0.43 ± 0.07) cm vs. (0.72 ± 0.10) cm, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). In the control group, the maximum short diameter of the largest cross section of lymph node decreased after treatment, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). After treatment, the reduction of the short diameter in the experimental group was more obvious than that in the control group. The maximum short diameter of the largest cross section between the two groups: (0.43±0.07) cm vs. (0.66±0.08)cm was statistically significant ( t = 11.523, P<0.05). Before treatment, hemoglobin (HGB) levels of the two groups were in the normal physiological range, and there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05); the white blood cell (WBC) levels of the two groups at different time after treatment were compared: in the first week (7.83 ± 2.53) × 10 9/L vs. (8.26 ± 3.16) × 10 9/L, in the third week (7.14 ± 3.65) × 10 9/L vs. (7.08 ± 2.53) × 10 9/L, in the fifth week (5.47 ± 2.81) × 10 9/L vs. (6.41 ± 2.57) × 10 9/L, and in the seventh week (4.36 ± 2.59) × 10 9/L vs. (4.98 ± 1.64) × 10 9/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05), which indicated that the WBC index levels of the two groups were gradually decreased during the treatment, and the decreased degree of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group. The levels of HGB and PLT were maintained in the normal physiological range before and after treatment, and there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). The main complications in the treatment of the experimental group were xerostomia and stomatitis. The adverse reactions in the control group were pain in the target area of radiotherapy. There was no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The application of IMRT is an effective method for the treatment of occult lymph node metastasis, and it is also a therapeutic diagnostic method, which can provide evidence for the study of the law of lymph node metastasis in the head and neck. The safety and tissue tolerance of IMRT in the treatment of suspicious positive lymph nodes in the head and neck are good, which can be used for the suspicious lymph nodes in the head and neck. The treatment of positive lymph nodes and the evaluation of patients′ prognosis provide an effective way of clinical treatment.

Objective: To assess the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in SLCO1B3 gene with prognosis of breast cancer (BC) patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy of TA regimen (taxane and antharcycline drugs). Methods: 439 female BC patients were recruited and treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy of TA regimen. A blood sample (2 ml) of peripheral blood was collected from each patient before chemotherapy. Tagging SNPs (tag-SNPs) were selected. We investigated the association of tag-SNPs with prognosis, by Sequenom Mass ARRAY system platform, characterizing tag-SNPs. The hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for progression or death were calculated by multivariable-adjusted Cox regression model. Results: Seven tag-SNPs (rs11045689, rs200104106, rs3764006, rs3834935, rs4149117, rs7305323 and rs73241801) were selected for study. Compared with individuals carrying the rs11045689 GG genotype, individuals carrying rs11045689 AA genotype performed worse PFS and OS, with the HR (95% CI) for progression being 1.39 (1.11~1.75) and the HR (95% CI) for death being 1.38 (1.04~1.83). Compared with individuals carrying the rs73241801 CC genotype, individuals carrying rs73241801 TT genotype performed better OS (P=0.041), with the HR (95% CI) for death being 0.65 (0.44~0.94). The number of risk allele was significantly associated with PFS (P=0.012) and OS (P=0.017) of BC patients by accumulation analysis. Compared with individuals carrying one or less than one risk allele, individuals carrying four risk alleles performed worse PFS and OS, with the HR (95% CI) for progression being 1.37 (1.09~1.72) and the HR (95% CI) for death being 1.36 (1.02~1.81). Conclusion The variations of rs11045689 and rs73241801 in SLCO1B3 gene were significantly associated with prognosis of BC patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy of TA regimen, which might serve as biomarkers for predicting prognosis of BC patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

To investigate the effect and application value of transplantation of the free cutaneous fibular flap combined with antibiotic-loaded calcium sulfate artificial bone graft for the treatment of antibrachial chronic osteomyelitis of Cierny-Mader type IV. Methods From August, 2013 to May, 2017, 12 cases of ulna or (and) radius chronic osteomyelitis of Cierny-Mader type IV were treated by transplantation of the free cutaneous fibu-lar flap combined with antibiotic-loaded calcium sulfate artificial bone graft. There were 7 males and 5 females, with an average age of 36.3 (21-47) years.Pure ulnar osteomyelitis in 7 cases, radius osteomyelitis in 4 cases, and both ul-nar and radius osteomyelitis in 1 case. The average range of osteomyelitis lesions was 6.3 (3.0-9.0) cm. The area of soft tissue defect (including bone scar) ranged from 8.0 cm×2.0 cm to 15.0 cm×5.0 cm. The area of the flap was 10.0 cm×3.5cm-17.0 cm×7.0 cm.The average length of the fibular flap was 8.8 (5.0-12.0) cm.Locking plate internal fixa-tion was used in 9 cases, external fixator in 2 cases, and plate combined with external fixator in 1 case. Vancomycin/gentamicin, an effective component of calcium sulfate artificial bone, averaged 0.64 g/102.7 kU (0.4 g/64 kU-1.0 g/160 kU).Routine postoperative treatment.And monthly outpatient review in the first half year after operation, and outpatient review every 3 months after half a year.One year after operation, comprehensive evaluation of elbow, forearm and wrist function with Mayo Elbow Function Index, Anderson Forearm Double Fracture Evaluation System and Cooney Wrist Function Score. Results Vascular crisis occurred in 1 case after operation, prompt surgical exploration, and ultimately all flaps survived completely.The donor sites healed well in all cases.The lower extremity functions of donor sites had no change compared with that before operation.Followed-up of an average of 22.7 months, there were 2 cases who had sen-sory disturbance in the ulnar nerve innervation area and returned to normal 3 months after operation. The fibular flaps healed satisfactorily with an average healing time of 4.7 (3-6) months.No calcium sulphate artificial bone granules were seen on X-ray at 3 months after operation.One year after operation, bone healing, forearm appearance and wrist function recovered well, but elbow and forearm motor function recovered unsatisfactorily. Conclusion On the basis of master-ing the applied anatomy and vascular anastomosis techniques of microsurgery, this method of transplantation of the free cutaneous fibular flap combined with antibiotic-loaded calcium sulfate artificial bone graft for the treatment of an-tibrachial chronic osteomyelitis of Cierny-Mader type IV has achieved satisfactory results.The recipient area is beautiful. The bone healing is reliable.And it has little influence on the recipient area and the donor area.It is worthy of clinical application.
