Objective To explore preemptive analgesic effect of preoperative intramural tramadol injection in percutaneous kyphoplasty(PKP)of vertebrae following local anesthesia.Methods From August 2019 to June 2021,118 patients with thora-co lumbar osteoporotic fractures were treated and divided into observation group and control group,with 59 patients in each gruop.In observation group,there were 26 males and 33 females,aged from 57 to 80 years old with an average of(67.69±4.75)years old;14 patients on T11,12 patients on T12,18 patients on L1,15 patients on L2;tramadol with 100 mg was injected intramuscularly half an hour before surgery in observation group.In control group,there were 24 males and 35 females,aged from 55 to 77 years old with an average of(68.00±4.43)years old;19 patients on T11,11 patients on T12,17patients on L1,12 patients on L2;the same amount of normal saline was injected intramuscularly in control group.Observation indicators included operation time,intraoperative bleeding,visual analogue scale(VAS)evaluation and recording of preoperative(T0),intraoper-ative puncture(T1),and working cannula placement(T2)between two groups of patients,at the time of balloon dilation(T3),when the bone cement was injected into the vertebral body(T4),2 hours after the operation(T5),and the pain degree at the time of discharge(T6);adverse reactions such as dizziness,nausea and vomiting were observed and recorded;the record the patient's acceptance of repeat PKP surgery.Results All patients were successfully completed PKP via bilateral pedicle ap-proach,and no intravenous sedative and analgesic drugs were used during the operation.There was no significant difference in preoperative general data and VAS(T0)between two groups(P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in operation time and intraoperative blood loss between the two groups(P＞0.05).VAS of T1,T2,T3,T4 and T5 in observation group were all lower than those in control group(P＜0.05),and there was no significant difference in T6 VAS(P＞0.05).T6 VAS between two groups were significantly lower than those of T0,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).There was no signifi-cant difference in incidence of total adverse reactions between two groups(P＞0.05).There was a statistically significant differ-ence in the acceptance of repeat PKP surgery(P＜0.05).Conclusion Half an hour before operation,intramuscular injection of tramadol has a clear preemptive analgesic effect for PKP of single-segment thoracolumbar osteoporotic fracture vertebral body under local anesthesia,which could increase the comfort of patients during operation and 2 hours after operation,and improve patients satisfaction with surgery.

Objective: To investigate the impact of pretreatment drug resistance (PDR) on virological effect among HIV-infected patients having received antiretroviral therapy (ART) after three years. Methods: The baseline survey of PDR among HIV-infected patients was conducted in 2018, with a three-year follow up study. The clinic data and virological laboratory test variables were statistically analyzed. Results: Of the 2 433 participants, 41.6% (1 012/2 433) were aged between 18 and 34, 82.8% (2 015/2 433) were males, 46.9% (1 142/2 433) had education of high school or above, 22.4% (544/2 433) were farmers, 33.8% (823/2 433) were unmarried, 48.1% (1 169/2 433) were infected heterosexually and 41.3% (1 004/2 433) were with CRF07_BC. The prevalence of PDR was 4.5% (109/2 433). The prevalence of virological suppression failure (viral load ≥50 copies/ml) and drug resistance at three years follow up after ART was 8.1%(196/2 433) and 2.5%(60/2 433) respectively. The prevalence of virological suppression failure and drug resistance at three years follow up after ART were 18.3% (20/109) and 7.6% (176/2 324), and 4.6% (5/109) and 2.4% (55/2 324) among participants with PDR and non-PDR, respectively. The results of multivariate logistic regression model showed that illiteracy (aOR=3.26, 95%CI: 1.82-5.86), primary and junior high school education (aOR=1.54, 95%CI: 1.09-2.18), CD4⁺T lymphocyte count <200/μl (aOR=2.77, 95%CI: 1.75-4.37) and CD4⁺T lymphocyte count 200-499/μl (aOR=1.55, 95%CI: 1.10-2.18) at a three year follow up visit after ART, missed drugs in the past month (aOR=4.24, 95%CI: 2.92-6.17), and PDR (aOR=2.84, 95%CI: 1.67-4.85) were statistically significant with virological suppression failure on treatment. Conclusions: The prevalence of PDR in China at a low level currently, and the virological suppression failure rate is low after three years of ART. It is necessary to strengthen drug resistance monitoring of HIV-infected patients and pay attention to the influence of PDR on treatment effect.

Objective To explore protein extraction efficiency from formaldehyde-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) tissue samples with different protocols. Methods Six different lysis buffers with 100 °C or 105 °C. treatments were used for protein extraction, followed by evaluation of protein quantity and quality with Bradford, sodium dodecyl sulfate Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) electrophoresis, Western blotting and immunohistochemistry (IHC), using 8 FFPE samples of ESCC. Results The optimal method for protein extraction from FFPE ESCC tissue was Laemmli lysis buffer (Buffer 4) treated with 100 °C incubation, evidenced by highest amount of protein recovery. Western blotting and IHC method measured consistent 14-3-3σ expression in FFPE ESCC tissue samples. Protein precipitated by two volumes of acetonitrite acetonitrile(ACN) (0.1% trifluoroacetic acid) relative to protein amount reduced background staining on SDS-PAGE gels by commassie staining. Conclusion Laemmli lysis buffer combined with 100 °C incubation has the highest protein extraction efficiency from FFPE ESCC tissue samples for Western blotting measurement of protein biomarkers, and ACN protein precipitation can further eliminate residual cross- linked protein by FFPE.

Objective: To investigate the clinical features of anti-signal recognition particle (SRP) antibody-positive patients with dermatomyositis/clinically amyopathic dermatomyositis (DM/CADM) . Methods: Clinical data were collected from 90 patients with DM/CADM, who were hospitalized at the Department of Dermatology, Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from June 2015 to July 2017. Immunoblotting assay was performed to determine the serum level of anti-SRP antibody in these patients. Statistical analysis was carried out using t test and Chi-square test. Results: Of the 90 patients with DM/CADM, 11 (12.2%) were positive for serum anti-SRP antibody, including 6 with DM and 5 with CADM. Among 82 adult patients with DM/CADM, the prevalence of malignant tumors was significantly higher in the patients with anti-SRP antibody than in those without (7/9 vs. 31.5%[23/73], χ² = 7.394, P = 0.006) . The 11 patients with anti-SRP antibody had typical DM skin lesions, and their cutaneous dermatomyositis disease area and severity index (CDASI) was 18.1 ± 2.9. The prevalence of "angel wings sign" (aliform erythema on the trunk) was significantly higher in the patients with anti-SRP antibody than in those without (7/11 vs. 29.9%[20/67], Fisher′s exact test, P = 0.028) . The positive rate of antinuclear antibody was significantly higher in the patients with anti-SRP antibody than in those without (4/8 vs. 16.7%[13/78], χ² = 6.053, P = 0.014) . Magnetic resonance imaging of muscles of both thighs of the 10 patients with anti-SRP antibody (6 with DM and 4 with CADM) showed the presence of abnormal signals in the thigh muscle group in 8, swelling of the muscle group in 2, subcutaneous edema in 2, myofascial swelling in 1, and no abnormities in 2. No interstitial lung disease or myocardial involvement was observed in the patients with anti-SRP antibody. Conclusions The anti-SRP antibody-positive patients with DM/CADM showed a high prevalence of "angel wings sign" , and a high risk of malignant tumors. Early detection of the anti-SRP antibody in patients with DM/CADM is helpful to predict the occurrence of malignant tumors.

This study compared the diagnostic efficacy of transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy (TRBx) and transperineal prostate biopsy (TPBx) in patients with suspected prostate cancer (PCa). We enrolled 2962 men who underwent transrectal (n = 1216) or transperineal (n = 1746) systematic 12-core prostate biopsy. Clinical data including age, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level, and prostate volume (PV) were recorded. To minimize confounding, we performed propensity score-matching analysis. We measured and compared PCa detection rates between TRBx and TPBx, which were stratified by clinical characteristics and Gleason scores. The effects of clinical characteristics on PCa detection rate were assessed by logistic regression. For all patients, TPBx detected a higher proportion of clinically significant PCa (P < 0.001). Logistic regression analyses illustrated that PV had a smaller impact on PCa detection rate of TPBx compared with TRBx. Propensity score-matching analysis showed that the detection rates in TRBx were higher than those in TPBx for patients aged >- 80 years (80.4% vs 56.5%, P = 0.004) and with PSA level 20.1-100.0 ng ml^-1 (80.8% vs 69.1%, P = 0.040). In conclusion, TPBx was associated with a higher detection rate of clinically significant PCa than TRBx was; however, because of the high detection rate at certain ages and PSA levels, biopsy approaches should be optimized according to patents' clinical characteristics.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of the medication adherence and analyze their influencing factors in hemodialysis patients. Methods Hemodialysis patients who were treated in a class Ⅲgrade A hospital of Shanghai from June to December 2016 were selected as the research object by convenience sampling. The patients were investigated by general information questionnaire,simplified medication compliance questionnaire and social support rating scale,and the relevant influencing factors of medication adherence were analyzed. Results A total of 99 patients were surveyed,37 patients of them(37.4%)had good adherence to calcium acetate,and 62 patients(62.6%)had poor compliance. There were significant differences in age, occupation,marital status,serum phosphorus and parathyroid hormone levels between patients with good compliance and poor compliance(P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that age,marital status and occupation were the influencing factors of medication compliance(P < 0.05). Conclusions The compliance of calcium acetate in maintenance hemodialysis patients is not optimistic. It is important to further improve the adherence by establishing accessible education programs according to their age,marital status and occupational status.

Objective To investigate epidemic characteristics and risk factors of hypertension among residents aged above 15 years in Pudong New Area of Shanghai. Methods We selected the subjects through a multistage stratified cluster sampling procedure; all thirty towns of Pudong New Area were stratified into three levels according to their economic status and 10 657 people selected as survey subjcets from each economic level.A questionnaire survey was conducted in conjunction with measurements of body height and weight, fasting plasma glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, blood lipid and blood pressure among 10 657 inhabitants aged above 15 years.Multivariate unconditional regression model was employed to analyze the influence factors of hypertension. Results The crude prevalence rate of hypertension in the residents was 41.3%.The prevalence rates of male was high than female (P<0.001). With the increment of age, the hypertension prevalence rate of all residents were obviously elevated.The residents with lower education had a higher hypertension prevalence rate.There was no significant difference in hypertension prevalence between rural and urban.The results of logistic regresssion showed that the risk factors of hypertension were age,gender,educational level,family history of hypertension,central obesity, body mass index, C-reactive protein, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose and urinary albumin/creatinine ratio(P<0.05). Conclusion The results indicated that hypertension was highly prevalent in Pudong New Area.Body mass index ( BMI) and central obesity were related factors for hypertension which were changeable.

Objective To evaluate different hypertension management models in communities and their impact on incidence of cardio-cerebrovascular disease in hypertensive patients. Methods A total of 1 578 hypertension patients in several communities in Pudong New Area were recruited in the study ( August 2008 to December 2012 ) according to the inclusion criteria and randomly divided into two groups.The control group was given routine hypertension management and the study group was given detailed hypertension management, while health commissioners and community physicians were in charge of the follow-up and data collection. Results The incidence of cardio-cerebrovascular disease (1.33%) in study group (1.33%) was significantly lower than that of the control group (4.22%) ( P <0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, male, course-of-disease, patients with hypertension family history, increase in SCr and LDL-C increased the risk for getting ardio-cerebrovascular disease (P <0.05).The risk of study group was 0.348 times the control group ( P <0.05). Conclusion Compared with control group, detailed hypertension management model conducted in study group has the advantages that effectively reduced the rate of cardio-cerebrovascular disease.
