Objective To explore clinical accuracy of remote sensing navigation alignment(RSNA)system in total knee arthroplasty(TKA)and its influence on postoperative clinical efficacy.Methods From May 2021 to May 2022,60 knee os-teoarthritis(KOA)patients with Kellgren-Lawrence(K-L)grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ treated by unilateral primary TKA were selected and divided into RSNA group and traditional operation group according to treatment methods,and 30 patients in each group.There were 6 males and 24 females in RSNA group,aged from 55 to 86 years old with an average of(68.06±8.23)years old;body mass index(BMI)ranged from 22.15 to 34.58 kg·m-2 with an average of(28.20±3.01)kg·m-2;the courses of disease ranged from 2 to 60 months with an average of(18.80±14.80)months;13 patients with grade Ⅲ and 17 patients with grade Ⅳaccording to K-L grading.In traditional operation group,there were 8 males and 22 females,aged from 57 to 85 years old with an average of(67.26±6.32)years old;BMI ranged from 23.94 to 34.55 kg·m-2 with an average of(27.49±2.32)kg·m-2;the courses of disease ranged from 3 to 60 months with an average of(21.30±16.44)months;14 patients with grade Ⅲ and 16 pa-tients with grade Ⅳ according to K-L grading.Western Ontario and McMaster Universities(WOMAC)osteoarthritis index and Knee Society score(KSS)were used to evaluate functional recovery of patients.Hip-knee-ankle angle(HKAA),distal femoral valgus angle(FVA)and distal fermoral flexion angle(DFFA)were measured before operation.HKAA and HKAA deviation angle were measured at 1 week after operation,and defective rate of lower limb force line,femur prosthesis valgus angle(FP-VA)and femoral prosthesis flexion angle(FPFA),respectively,were calculated.Results There were no serious complications such as vascular and nerve injury during operation,and wound healed at stage Ⅰ.Both groups were followed up for 6 months.There were no significant difference in WOMAC index,KSS,HKAA,FVA and DFFA between two groups before operation(P＞0.05).The force line defect rate,HKAA,HKAA deviation angle,FPVA deviation angle and FPFA of RSNA group were 6.7％,(178.74±1.56)°,(1.25±1.56)°,(1.84±0.16)° and(4.85±2.46)°,respectively;while in traditional operation group were 20％,(176.73±3.46)°,(3.27±3.46)°,(2.44±0.26)°,(6.60±1.86)°;the difference between two groups were statistically sig-nificant(P＜0.05).There were no significant difference in WOMAC index and KSS between two groups at 3 and 6 months after operation(P＞0.05).Conclusion RSNA system could reduce defective rate of lower limb force line,FPVA deviation angle and FPFA after TKA,which is more accurate and easy to operate than traditional intramedullary localization surgery while ensuring postoperative efficacy.

Ghrelin is a hormone produced by the stomach that regulates energy metabolism after acting on the central nervous system.Cocaine amphetamine-regulated transcriptional peptide(CART)neurons participate in the regulation of feeding behavior and energy balance.It is known that CART neurons are influenced by hormones to regulate energy homeostasis,but whether ghre-lin exerts its pro-appetite function by influencing CART neurons is unknown.Therefore,this study focuses on the role of VMHCART neurons in the regulation of feeding and relative body weight by ghrelin.Firstly,the whole brain expression of CART was determined by immunofluorescence.Then the effect of intraperitoneal injection of ghrelin on the expression of DMHCART neurons was evalua-ted.Finally,the ghrelin was delivered to DMH and the changes of food intake and relative body weight of mice were measured.CART immunoreactive neurons were detected in medial preoptic nucleus(MPA),arcuate nucleus(ARC),dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus(DMH),thalamic pa-raventricular nucleus(PVT)and raphe nucleus(ROb).Compared with the control group,periph-eral injection of ghrelin significantly increased the expression of DMHC ART immunoreactive neurons(P=0.037 3).DMH long-term injection of ghrelin resulted in an increase in body weight(P=0.004 0)and feed intake(P=0.023 1).The results provide anatomical evidence for the whole brain distribution of CART,which proves that ghrelin affects feed intake and body weight of mice through CART neurons in DMH,suggesting that specific neuron types and regional specificity are involved in ghrelin regulation of feed intake and energy homeostasis.

Objective:To understand the serological characteristics of irregular antibodies in pregnant women and explore their clinical significance.Methods:From January 2017 to March 2022,151 471 pregnant women in Women and Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were enrolled in this study,microcolumn gel card test was used for irregular antibody screening,and antibody specificity identification was further performed in some antibody-positive subjects.Results:The positive rate of irregular antibody screening in the enrolled pregnant women was 0.91％(1 375/151 471),0.23％(355/151 471)was detected in the first trimester,0.05％(71/151 471)in the second trimester,and 0.63％(949/151 471)in the third trimester.The positive rate of irregular antibody screening in the third trimester was significantly higher than that in the first and second trimester,and a significant increase in the number of positive cases was found in the third trimester than that in the second trimester.The analysis of agglutination intensity of 1 375 irregular antibody screening positive results showed that the weakly positive agglutination intensity accounted for 50.11％(689/1 375),which was the highest,the suspicious positive was 18.69％(257/1 375),and the positive was 31.20％(429/1 375).The significant difference in distribution of agglutination intensity was not observed between the first trimester group and the second trimester group,however,in the third trimester,the proportion of suspicious positive and weakly positive was lower than the first trimester,while,the proportion of positive was higher than the first trimester,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.001).Among the irregular antibody screening positive pregnant women,the proportion of pregnant women with pregnancy number ≥ 2 was significantly higher than that with pregnancy≤1.Among 60 pregnant women who underwent antibody identification,the distributions of the antibodies were as follows:Rh blood group system accounted for 23.33％(14/60),Lewis system 43.33％(26/60),Kidd system 3.33％(2/60),MNS system 16.67％(10/60),P1PK system 1.67％(1/60),autoantibodies 1.67％(1/60),and 4 cases was unable to identify(6.67％,4/60).Among specific antibodies,the anti-Lea was the most common(30.00％),followed by anti-E(16.67％)and anti-M(16.67％).Conclusion:The differences of irregular antibody serological characteristics exist in pregnant women from different regions with different genetic backgrounds,understanding the characteristics of irregular antibody in local pregnant women is of great significance for ensuring transfusion safety in pregnant women and preventing hemolytic disease of newborn.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) on the treatment of relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) with chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy.Methods:A retrospective cohort study. The clinical data of 168 patients with RRMM who underwent CAR-T therapy at the Department of Hematology, Xuzhou Medical University Hospital from 3 January 2020 to 13 September 2022 were analyzed. Patients were classified into a transplantation group (TG; n=47) and non-transplantation group (NTG; n=121) based on whether or not they had undergone ASCT previously. The objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and the levels of CD3, CD4, CD8, CD19, CD56 and natural killer (NK) cells before CAR-T infusion were analyzed by χ2 test, Kaplan-Meier method and independent sample t-test. Results:Among 168 patients with RRMM, 98 (58.3%) were male. The median age of onset was 57 (range 30-70) years. After CAR-T therapy, the ORR of patients was 89.3% (92/103) in the NTG and 72.9% (27/73) in the TG. The ORR of the NTG was better than that of the TG ( χ2=5.71, P=0.017). After 1 year of CAR-T therapy, the ORR of the NTG was 78.1% (75/96), and that of the TG was 59.4% (19/32). The ORR of the NTG was better than that of the TG ( χ2=4.32, P=0.038). The median OS and PFS in the NTG were significantly longer than those in the TG (OS, 30 vs. 20 months; PFS, 26 vs. 12 months; both P<0.05). The CD4 level before CAR-T infusion in the TG was significantly lower than that in the NTG (25.65±13.56 vs. 32.64±17.21; t=-2.15, P=0.034), and there were no significant differences in the counts of CD3, CD8, CD19, CD56, and NK cells between the TG and NTG (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Among patients suffering from RRMM who received CAR-T therapy, patients who did not receive ASCT had significantly better outcomes than those who had received ASCT previously, which may have been related to the CD4 level before receiving CAR-T therapy.

Objective To explore the clinical rational use evaluation method for high-value medical consumables in diagnosis related groups(DRG)using association rules in order to provide references for the supervision of clinical rational use of high-value medical consumables.Methods The cardiovascular department was taken as an example.Firstly,K-means algorithm was applied to cluster analysis of DRG cases in the department,and representative cases were selected as the research objects;secondly,Apriori algorithm was used to mine the frequent item sets of DRG patient groups,the high-value medical consumables in the department and the rules of association between DRG patient groups and medical consumables;finally,two indicators of the importance of regulation and rationality of the use of medical consumables were designed to evaluate the importance of regulation and rationality of the use of high-value medical consumables.Results There were two common DRG patient groups in the cardiovascular department,including FM39 percutaneous cardiac catheterization and FM19 percutaneous coronary stent implantation,and the frequently used medical consumables contained vascular sheath,contrast catheter,pressure monitoring kit,triple three-way stopcock and coronary guide wire in the two groups.The common combinations of medical consumables used in the FM39 DRG patient group comprised of vascular sheath,contrast catheter,pressure monitoring kit,triple three-way stopcock and coronary guide wire,which were close to that of the cardiovascular department;there were some additional consumables involved in the common combinations in the FM19 group such as occluder,coronary guide catheter,pressure pump,drug-eluting stent and coronary dilation balloon.The top three medical consumables in terms of regulatory importance were cutting balloon,coronary guide wire and drug-eluting stent;using the confidence level from January to September 2022 as a reference,from January to September 2023 the rationality of using high-value consumables in FM39 group went higher by 5.08％while that in FM19 group went lower by 9.23％.Conclusion The association rule-based evaluation method for the use of medical consumables in DRG patient groups can be used for assessing the importance of regulation and rationality of the use of high-value medical consumables,which provides references for the supervision of clinical rational use of high-value medical consumables.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(11):67-71]

Analyzing polysorbate 20(PS20)composition and the impact of each component on stability and safety is crucial due to formulation variations and individual tolerance.The similar structures and polarities of PS20 components make accurate separation,identification,and quantification challenging.In this work,a high-resolution quantitative method was developed using single-dimensional high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)with charged aerosol detection(CAD)to separate 18 key components with multiple esters.The separated components were characterized by ultra-high-performance liquid chro-matography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS)with an identical gradient as the HPLC-CAD analysis.The polysorbate compound database and library were expanded over 7-time compared to the commercial database.The method investigated differences in PS20 samples from various origins and grades for different dosage forms to evaluate the composition-process relationship.UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS identified 1329 to 1511 compounds in 4 batches of PS20 from different sources.The method observed the impact of 4 degradation conditions on peak components,identifying stable components and their tendencies to change.HPLC-CAD and UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS results provided insights into fingerprint differences,distinguishing quasi products.

Objective To study the diagnosis,treatment,and complications of hypophosphatemic rickets(HR)in children,explore effectiveness evaluation indicators for the disease,and understand the pattern in height growth among these patients.Methods A retrospective analysis of the initial clinical data and five-year follow-up data of 85 children with HR treated at Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2008 to December 2022.Results Among the 85 children with HR,there were 46 males(54%)and 39 females(46%).The age at initial diagnosis ranged from 6 months to 13 years and 9 months,with a median age of 2.75 years.The average height standard deviation score was-2.0±1.1.At initial diagnosis,children exhibited reduced blood phosphate levels and elevated alkaline phosphatase(ALP),with 99%(84/85)presenting with lower limb deformities.The positive rate for PHEX gene mutations was 93%(55/59).One year post-treatment,there was a significant reduction in ALP levels and the gap between the lower limbs(P<0.05).The fastest height growth occurred in the first year after treatment,at 8.23 cm/year,with a peak height velocity(PHV)phase lasting about two years during puberty.The height increased by 9-20 cm in male children during the PHV stage and 10-15 cm in female children.Major complications included nephrocalcinosis and hyperparathyroidism.The incidence rate of nephrocalcinosis in the first year after treatment was 55%(22/40),which increased with the duration of the disease(P<0.001);an increased urinary phosphate/creatinine ratio was positively associated with a higher risk of nephrocalcinosis(OR=1.740,P<0.001).The incidence of hyperparathyroidism in the first year after treatment was 64%(27/42).Conclusions For children presenting with lower limb deformities,short stature,and slow growth,early testing for blood levels of phosphate,calcium,and ALP,along with imaging examinations of the lower limbs,can aid in the early diagnosis of HR.Genetic testing may be utilized for definitive confirmation when necessary.ALP combined with improvements in skeletal deformities and annual height growth can serve as indicators of therapeutic effectiveness for HR.Compared to normal children,children with HR demonstrate a lower height increase during the PHV phase,necessitating close follow-up and timely adjustment of treatment plans
