Objective:To observe the effect of reconstruction of Achilles insertion with Suture bridge technology after extirpation of avulsed bones block in the treatment of Beavis type Ⅲ avulsion fracture of the calcaneal tuberosity.Methods:The retrospective analysis was used. From January 2013 to January 2023, 78 patients with Beavis type Ⅲ avulsion fracture of the calcaneal tuberosity, treated in the Department 1 of Foot and Ankle and Department 2 of Foot and Ankle of the second Hospital of Tangshan were selected as research objects. According to different operation performed, 41 patients with the reconstruction of Achilles insertion with Suture bridge technology after extirpation of avulsed bones block were divided into the observation group and 37 patients with the open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) were divided into the control group. The delayed wound healing rate and the Haglund malformation rate, Maryland foot score, the American Orthopedic Foot and ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score, the pain Visual Analogue Scale/Score (VAS) score, the Victorian Institute of Sports Assessment-Achilles (VISA-A) score, Arner-Lindholm scale of One-year postoperative were compared between these two groups. The measurement data with normal or approximate normal distribution were analyzed using t test, count data using chi-square test for comparison of between groups.Results:One year after surgery, the incidence of Haglund malformation in the observation group was 4.88% (2/41), which was lower than the control group's 29.73% (11/37). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2=8.65,P=0.003). The excellent and good rate of Maryland foot function assessment in the observation group was 85.37% (35/41) higher than that in the control group (56.76% (21/37), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2=7.86, P=0.005). The AOFAS ankle hind foot score of the observation group ((90.44±6.66) points) was higher than that of the control group ((82.84±7.43) points), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t=4.77, P<0.001). The pain score of the observation group ((1.51±1.05) points) was lower than that of the control group ((2.95±1.13) points), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t=-5.81, P<0.001). The Achilles tendon score of the observation group ((81.05±5.87) points) was higher than that of the control group ((71.62±8.60) points), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t=5.70, P<0.001). The excellent and good rate of Arner Lindholm treatment efficacy evaluation for Achilles tendon in the observation group was 87.80% (36/41), which was higher than that in the control group (67.57% (25/37)), and the difference between the groups was statistically significant. Conclusion:The treatment of Beavis Ⅲ type calcaneal nodule avulsion fracture by removing the bone fragment can simultaneously remove the hypertrophic osteophyte, hardened bone, and Haglund deformity of the calcaneus, and clean the degenerated Achilles tendon and inflammatory tissue around the insertion point; The use of suture bridge technology to reconstruct the Achilles tendon insertion point has the advantages of high fixed strength, allowing early functional exercise, avoiding secondary removal of internal fixation, and achieving satisfactory therapeutic effects, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To explore the value of 18F-FDG PET brain imaging in the auxiliary diagnosis of autoimmune encephalitis (AE) before treatment, and to analyze the regional and course-related characteristics of brain metabolic changes. Methods:The 18F-FDG PET brain imaging data of 49 AE patients (26 males, 23 females, age 48.0(29.0, 61.0) years) who did not receive first-line immunotherapy were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were collected from Renji Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, between July 2015 and December 2023. Forty-nine age- and gender-matched healthy subjects who underwent routine physical examination at the same time period were selected as the healthy controls (HC). The statistical parametric mapping (SPM) 8 two-sample t test ( P<0.001, k=50) was used to compare the imaging results of AE patients with those of HC. The screening results were adjusted by the cluster-level family-wise error rate (FWER) for P<0.05. Metabolic abnormalities associated with AE were identified, and differences in metabolic patterns at different stages of the disease course (short: ≤1 month; medium: >1 month and ≤3 month; long: >3 month) were compared by subgroup analysis. Mann-Whitney U test was used to analyze the data. Results:In the included AE patients, regions with elevated metabolism were mainly located in the limbic lobe, insula, putamen, and amygdala ( t values: 3.18-5.07, Z values: 3.17-4.76), while local metabolic reduction was observed in the frontal, parietal, and occipital lobes ( t values: 3.18-5.43, Z values: 3.23-5.06), with most of these regions passing FWER correction. In patients with anti- N-methyl- D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis, local metabolism increased in the right superior temporal gyrus ( t values: 3.55-4.79, Z values: 3.67-3.86) and decreased in the left middle temporal gyrus and inferior frontal gyrus ( t values: 3.55-5.43, Z values: 3.45-4.21), but the results did not pass the FWER correction. Subgroup analysis showed that in patients with short disease course ( n=17), regions with locally elevated metabolism included the brainstem, limbic lobe, and cerebellum ( t values: 3.37-5.27, Z values: 3.52-4.44), while regions with reduced metabolism were mainly located in the frontal, parietal, and occipital lobes ( t values: 3.37-6.77, Z values: 3.34-5.30), and these abnormal results all passed FWER correction. In patients with medium ( n=7) to long ( n=25) disease course, the regions with metabolic abnormalities were significantly reduced and did not pass FWER correction. Conclusions:18F-FDG PET can accurately identify brain metabolic abnormalities in AE patients, demonstrating significant regional and course-related characteristics. Metabolic abnormalities are more pronounced in patients with short disease course, while they are relatively less obvious in patients with medium to long disease course.

BACKGROUND:Talus cartilage injury is a common motor system disease.This type of injury will affect the patient's daily life and work ability,and may worsen the condition if left untreated.Surgical treatment is commonly used,but the selection of surgical methods and the evaluation of medium-and long-term follow-up results have always been difficult clinical problems. OBJECTIVE:To explore the influence of T1ρ technique on the range of quantitative evaluation of talus osteochondral injury on the choice of surgical method and the results of medium-and long-term follow-up. METHODS:A total of 154 patients with osteochondral injury of talus admitted to The Second Hospital of Tangshan from January 2019 to August 2022 were retrospectively selected as the study subjects.The lesion site of talus was examined by MRI before operation,and the T1ρ and T2 values of different types were compared.Different surgical methods were selected according to the different T1ρ values.Group A(n=73)was treated with microfracture surgery with T1ρ<45 ms;group B(n=81)was treated with autogenous bone and cartilage transplantation with T1ρ≥45 ms.The general clinical characteristics and curative effects of patients under different surgical methods were compared;the important factors of postoperative recurrence were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression,and the relationship between T1ρ value and postoperative recurrence was analyzed by restricted cubic spline graph,y=1-1/(1+e-z)regression equation to build a prediction model.The stability of the model was verified by cross-checking method. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Classification of talus osteochondral injury in 154 patients(type Ⅰ:36 cases;type Ⅱ:37 cases;type Ⅲ:40 cases;type Ⅳ:41 cases),T1ρ and T2 values of the four groups were statistically significant(P<0.05);pairwise comparison was also statistically significant(all P<0.05).(2)After treatment of 154 patients,7 cases(4.6％)had local swelling,3 cases(2.0％)had pain aggravation,and 5 cases(3.3％)had wound infection.There were 2 cases(1.3％)with poor cartilage healing.(3)After treatment,there were statistically significant differences between groups A and B in terms of American Orthopaedic Foot&Ankle Society score,visual analog scale score,plantar flexor motion range,dorsoextension motion range,subchondral bone marrow edema volume,interleukin-6,interleukin-8,C-reactive protein,procalcitonin,platelet-derived growth factor,transforming growth factor-β1,and efficacy(P<0.05).The total effective rate of group B(90％)was higher than that of group A(85％)(P<0.05).(4)Age(OR=1.589,95％CI:0.305-1.252,P=0.036),interleukin-6(OR=1.737,95％CI:0.974-5.254,P=0.049),interleukin-8(OR=1.385,95％CI:1.066-4.355,P=0.034),C-reactive protein(OR=1.957,95％CI:1.323-2.178,P=0.035),transforming growth factor-β1(OR=1.459,95％CI:0.897-2.455,P=0.038),T1-ρ(OR=1.687,95％CI:0.854-3.321,P=0.026),T2(OR=1.843,95％CI:0.657-2.454,P=0.036),complications(OR=1.719,95％CI:0.654-3.464,P=0.019),and classification of osteochondral injury of talus(OR=3.789,95％CI:1.023-5.897,P=0.028)were independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence.Microfracture surgery(OR=0.751,95％CI:0.321-1.264,P=0.012)and autogenous bone and cartilage grafting(OR=0.649,95％CI:0.246-1.356,P=0.023)were independent protective factors for recurrence after medium-and long-term follow-up.(5)When T1ρ value≤35 ms,the risk of postoperative recurrence decreased rapidly,and when T1ρ value>35 ms,the risk of postoperative recurrence increased rapidly.(6)Further stepwise regression analysis showed that these nine risk factors were most closely associated with postoperative recurrence,and the formula for postoperative recurrence was obtained.The probability of postoperative recurrence was calculated using the regression equation.When P=0.75,the maximum value of Jorden index was 77.728,indicating that the model has a better prediction effect.(7)It is indicated that the quantitative evaluation of T1ρ before operation can effectively guide the selection of surgical methods,improve the success rate of surgery and the quality of life of patients.

Objective To analyze the status of occupational hazards in key positions of the small and micro book and newspaper printing enterprises in Beijing City. Methods A total of 16 small and micro printing enterprises in Beijing City were selected as the research subjects using the judgment sampling method. The status of occupational hazard was assessed using on-site occupational health investigations. The volatile chemical components in organic solvents such as inks and cleaning agents used in the workplace, the level of chemical hazardous agents in the air, and noise intensity were detected and analyzed. Results A total of 1 105 workers from 16 small and micro printing enterprises were included. The occupational hazard exposure rate was 22.2% (245/1 105), with chemical hazardous agents and noise exposure rates of 13.5% and 22.2%, respectively. The rate of compliance with occupational health training among the head of the enterprise and the occupational health management personnel, the regular detection rate of occupational hazards in last year, and the rate for the occupational health examination in last year were both 100.0%. The rate for annual update of occupational hazard project reporting was 93.8% (15/16). The usage rates of gas mask and noise-proof earplug were 68.8% (11/16) and 50.0% (8/16), respectively. The effectiveness rates of anti-toxic and noise-reduction facilities were 87.5% (14/16) and 62.5% (10/16). The sign setting rates of chemical hazardous agents and noise warning were 93.8% (15/16). Acetone and isopropanol were found in ink and cleaning agents in 15 printing enterprises, while toluene, xylene, and ethylbenzene were found in three, two, and one enterprise, respectively. Benzene, 1,2-dichloroethane, n-hexane, and trichloroethylene were not found in all 16 enterprises. Both the exposure concentration of short term and exposure concentration of time weighted average of the above chemical hazards were lower than the lower limit of quantitation of the detection method in the workplace and work site air among the 16 printing enterprises, and none of concentration was exceeded the national standard. A total of 240 noise work sites were detected, and the national noise-exceeding rate was 11.2%(27/240). Conclusion Noise hazards are prominent in the small and micro printing enterprises in Beijing City, and attention should be paid to the prevention and protection of noise-exposure. The usage rate of personal protective equipment is not high, and the training and on-site supervision management of protective equipment wearing in workers should be strengthened.

Objective:To evaluate the values of 18F-PI-2620 PET/CT brain imaging with SUV ratio (SUVR) in the assessment of tau protein deposition in the brain of patients with different cognitive disorders and its correlation with cognition. Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. From December 2019 to November 2022, a total of 67 subjects including 54 patients with Alzheimer′s disease (AD; 21 males, 33 females, age (68.6±7.8) years), 7 patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI; 1 male, 6 females, age (63.1±11.2) years) and 6 healthy controls (HC; 4 males, 2 females, age (69.0±5.8) years) were enrolled retrospectively in Renji Hospital. All participants were examined by 18F-PI-2620 PET/CT. SUVRs of brain regions were obtained, including frontal lobe, temporal lobe, occipital lobe, parietal lobe, insular lobe, whole brain, as well as 10 independent brain ROIs (amygdala, orbitofrontal cortex, cingulate gyrus, superior occipital gyrus, superior parietal gyrus, inferior angular gyrus, precuneus, inferior temporal gyrus, entorhinal cortex and parahippocampal gyrus), with inferior cerebellum cortex as the reference region. All participants were estimated by cognitive scales(mini-mental state examination (MMSE) and Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA)). One-way analysis of variance and the least significant difference t test were used to compare the differences of SUVR in each brain region among HC, MCI and AD groups. ROC curve analysis was used to determine the optimal cut-off values of SUVR in each brain region for the differential diagnosis of AD-MCI and AD-HC. Pearson correlation analysis was employed to examine the correlations of SUVR with cognitive scale scores. Results:The SUVR of whole brain was 1.40±0.31 in AD group, 1.08±0.19 in MCI group, and 1.01±0.12 in HC group. SUVR analysis in the whole brain and each brain region could distinguish AD from HC, AD from MCI ( F values: 1.76-10.09, t values: 2.98-7.47, all P<0.05), but could not distinguish HC from MCI ( t values: 0.17-1.53, all P>0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the best cut-off value of SUVR was 1.18 for whole brain (AUC=0.89), 1.13 for amygdala (AUC=0.94) and 1.26 for parahippocampal gyrus (AUC=0.94) for differential diagnosis of AD and HC, which was 1.06 for whole brain (AUC=0.82), 1.18 for amygdala (AUC=0.88) and 1.28 (AUC=0.88) for infratemporal gyrus to differential diagnosis of AD and MCI. SUVRs of the whole brain, frontal, occipital, parietal, temporal and insula were significantly negatively correlated with MMSE and MoCA cognitive scale scores ( r values: from -0.64 to -0.40, all P<0.05). Conclusions:SUVR quantitative analysis in 18F-PI-2620 PET imaging can assist the differential diagnosis of AD and HC, AD and MCI. The SUVRs of whole brain and five lobes show negative correlations with MMSE and MoCA scores.

Objective:To assess the diagnostic efficiency of 18F-FDG PET for Alzheimer′s disease (AD) in patients with memory impairment. Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 96 patients (40 males, 56 females, age: 69.0(62.8, 74.0) years) initially diagnosed with memory impairment in Renji Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University between August 2019 and September 2023. The amyloid-tau-neurodegeneration (ATN) criteria, based on 18F-AV45+ 18F-PI-2620 PET/CT+ MRI imaging results, were used as the diagnostic standard for AD. Visual analysis (temporoparietal or posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) hypometabolism) and semi-quantitative analysis methods (PET-SCORE and NeuroQ software analysis (SUV ratio, SUVR)) were applied to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of 18F-FDG PET imaging for AD. Diagnostic efficiencies of visual assessment and semi-quantitative parameters were compared by χ2 test. Additionally, Pearson correlation analysis was performed to examine the relationship between results of PET-SCORE and cognitive scales. Results:Of the 96 patients initially diagnosed with memory impairment, 61 were clinically diagnosed with AD, while 35 were non-AD patients. Visual assessment of temporoparietal hypometabolism showed the highest sensitivity (91.80%, 56/61), which was significantly different from the sensitivities of PET-SCORE (40.98%(25/61); χ2=29.03, P<0.001) and visual assessment of PCC hypometabolism (77.05%(47/61); χ2=5.82, P=0.016). While semi-quantitative assessment using PET-SCORE demonstrated the highest specificity (100%, 35/35), which was significantly different from the specificities of visual assessment methods (temporoparietal hypometabolism: 17.14%(6/35), χ2=27.03, P<0.001; PCC hypometabolism: 54.29%(19/35), χ2=14.06, P<0.001). PET-SCORE exhibited statistically significant correlations with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), and Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scores ( r values: -0.38, -0.36, 0.31, all P<0.01). Conclusions:Among patients initially diagnosed with memory impairment, visual assessment in 18F-FDG PET imaging analysis demonstrates higher sensitivity, while semi-quantitative analysis using PET-SCORE exhibits higher specificity. PET-SCORE shows statistically significant correlation with the severity of cognitive decline.

Objective:To analyse the material basis and potential mechanism of Acanthopanax senticosus injection (ASI) in the treatment of ischemic stroke by combining UPLC-Q/TOF-MS and network pharmacology.Methods:The chemical composition of ASI was identified by UPLC-Q/TOF-MS. The Swiss Target Prediction, GeneCards and OMIM databases were used to predict the potential targets for the action of ASI in the treatment of ischemic stroke. The String database and Cytoscape software were used to construct protein interaction network maps, and the Omicshare platform was used to perform gene ontology (GO) and KEGG enrichment analysis. The DockThor platform was used for molecular docking.Results:The analysis of 53 components in ASI was firmly established and used as a basis to obtain 189 related targets of ASI for the treatment of ischemic stroke. Reverse screening showed that 25 components in ASI may be important active components in the treatment of ischemic stroke. Functional enrichment studies found that ASI may mainly regulate PI3K-Akt signaling pathway to treat ischemic stroke.Conclusion:This study preliminarily predicted the mechanism of ASI in the treatment of ischemic stroke may be related to inhibition of inflammation, antioxidant stress, promotion of angiogenesis and protection of nerve cells.

Objective:To analyze the compliance and related factors of low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening among the high-risk population of lung cancer in three provinces participating in the cancer early diagnosis and early treatment program in urban areas of China.Methods:From October 2017 to October 2018, 17 983 people aged between 40 and 74 years old at high risk of lung cancer were recruited from Zhejiang, Anhui and Liaoning provinces. The basic demographic characteristics, living habits, history of the disease and family history of cancer were collected by using a cancer risk assessment questionnaire, and the data of participants examined by LDCT were obtained from the hospitals participating in the program. The screening compliance was quantified by the screening participation rate, and it was calculated as the proportion of participants completing LDCT scan among high-risk population. The related factors of LDCT screening compliance were analyzed by using a multivariate logistic regression model.Results:The age of 17 983 participants was (56.52±8.22) years old. Males accounted for 51.9% (N=9 332), and 69.5% (N=12 495) had ever smoked, including former smokers and current smokers. A total of 6 269 participants were screened by LDCT, and the screening participation rate was 34.86%. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the age group of 50 to 69 years old, female, passive smokers, alcohol consumption, family history of lung cancer and history of chronic respiratory diseases were more likely to be screened by LDCT, while the compliance of LDCT screening in current smokers was low.Conclusions:The LDCT screening compliance of the high-risk population of lung cancer in urban areas of China still needs to be improved. Age, sex, smoking, drinking, family history of lung cancer and history of chronic respiratory disease are associated with screening compliance.
