Objective:To investigate the dietary iodine intake levels of residents and the dietary iodine contribution rates in Hainan Province.Methods:Using cluster random sampling method, common foods sold in 21 counties (cities, districts) markets in Hainan Province in 2023 were collected to determine iodine content. Each county (city, district) was divided into five sampling areas by east, west, south, north, and center, with one township (street) selected from each area, and 20 permanent residents over 18 years old (non same household, half male and half female) and 20 pregnant women were selected from each township (street). The "Iodine-Specific Food Frequency Questionnaire (I-FFQ)" was used to investigate the daily dietary intake of adults and pregnant woman. The average daily salt intake of the survey subjects was measured by the 3-day weighing method, and the dietary iodine intake and the dietary iodine contribution rates were calculated.Results:A total of 632 food samples were collected, and the iodine content of seaweed was relatively high (4 424.76 μg/100 g); the iodine content of seasoning was relatively low (2.41 μg/100 g). A total of 4 227 individuals in Hainan Province were surveyed for dietary iodine intake. The median dietary iodine intake level of residents was 211.6 μg/d, with the medians dietary iodine intake level of adults and pregnant women being 204.5 and 218.4 μg/d ( n = 2 120, 2 107), respectively. There was a statistically significant differences between different populations ( Z = - 8.64, P < 0.001). The medians dietary iodine intake level in the western coastal areas, central mountainous regions, and eastern coastal areas were 210.0, 207.3 and 211.6 μg/d ( n = 1 205, 1 203, 1 819), respectively, with statistically significant differences between different regions ( H = 15.33, P < 0.001). The contribution rate of dietary iodine from iodized salt was the most (59.4%), followed by kelp (8.1%). Conclusions:Under the condition of consuming iodized salt, the dietary iodine intake of adults in Hainan Province meets the recommended dietary iodine intake ( > 120 μg/d), but the dietary iodine intake of pregnant women is insufficient ( < 230 μg/d). Iodized salt is the main source of dietary iodine for residents in Hainan Province.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of digital technology-assisted debridement and bone and soft tissue reconstruction in the treatment of chronic osteomyelitis of the tibia.Methods:This retrospective study analyzed clinical data from 38 patients (26 males, 12 females; mean age 45.61±18.36 years, range 16-83 years) with chronic post-traumatic osteomyelitis complicated by soft tissue defects in the tibia, treated at the Department of Orthopaedics, Fourth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital between June 2021 and June 2023. There were 18 cases of traffic accidents, 6 cases of high-altitude falls, 6 cases of heavy objects and 6 cases of low-energy falls. Lesion sites: 12 cases in the upper segment of the tibia, 12 cases in the middle segment, and 14 cases in the lower segment. According to the Cierny-Mader classification, there were 24 cases of type III and 14 cases of type IV. Before the operation, the "3D point cloud technology" was used to plan the debridement range of bone and soft tissue. During the operation, the optical navigation system was used to monitor the debridement range in real time. The flap was designed by combining "Reading Tablet Treasure" with CT angiography, and the amount of bone graft was predicted by AI algorithm. The surgical method adopted is the Masquelet technique, namely thorough debridement, bone cement occupation and soft tissue repair in the first stage, and bone reconstruction in the second stage. Comparing the calculated bone defect amount and soft tissue defect area before the operation with the actual measured values after debridement. The cure rate of infection was evaluated by using the McKee bone infection treatment criteria after the operation. The visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain, lower extremity functional scale (LEFS), and self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) were used to evaluate the improvement of the quality of life of postoperative patients.Results:38 patients were followed up with a mean follow-up of 13.53±2.37 months. 37 patients' infections were effectively controlled, and 1 patient had a recurrence of infection, with an effectiveness rate of 97% for the treatment of McKee's infections. The preoperative calculated bone defect amount and soft tissue defect area were 51.05±26.31 cm 3 and 68.42±43.45 cm 2 respectively, and the actual measured values after debridement during the operation were 51.66±26.35 cm 3 and 68.82±43.76 cm 2 respectively. There was no statistically significant difference before and after the operation ( P>0.05). The interval between the first and second stage surgeries was 10.36±1.61 weeks, and all flaps survived after the first stage surgery. Two months after the operation, one case had recurrent osteomyelitis. After palliative treatment, sinus tracts were formed at the infection site. At the 12-month regular dressing change follow-up, there were still purulent secretions in the sinus tracts. There was no recurrence of infection after primary debridement in 37 cases, and the bone grafts healed. The bone healing time was 3.58±0.97 months. The postoperative VAS, LEFS, and SAS scores were 1.00±0.91, 66.68±7.91, and 34.30±4.29, respectively, which were significantly improved compared with the preoperative scores of 7.54±1.52, 21.22±4.29, and 52.70±6.74, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The application of digital technology to precisely design the debridement range of bone and soft tissue, and the real-time holographic visualization monitoring of the debridement range during the operation can achieve precise debridement of bone and soft tissue and personalized and precise repair of soft tissue defects. It is a safe and effective technique for the treatment of chronic osteomyelitis of the tibia.

Objective To investigate the effects of imatinib mesylate and sunitinib malate on the migration and invasion of gastroin-testinal stromal tumor(GIST)cells.Methods After identifying primary-cultured GIST cells,their morphology was characterized using atomic force microscopy(AFM).Changes in the expression of genes related to the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway were analyzed using quan-titative real-time PCR following drug treatments.Changes in the binding of related molecules were detected using AFM,and alterations in cell migration,invasive ability,and apoptosis were determined using scratch assay,Transwell assay,and flow cytometry,respectively.Results AFM imaging showed that pseudopods were flatly spread around the GIST cells,indicating characteristics consistent with easy metastasis.Administration of either imatinib or sunitinib significantly reduced the expression of genes related to the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway,the density of epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)on the surface of GIST cells,and molecular binding force with EGF.These changes were more pronounced with the combination treatment.Correspondingly,the invasive and migratory abilities of GIST cells were significantly reduced when either drug was administered alone and the inhibitory effect was more significant when the drugs were combined.Conclusion Both imatinib and sunitinib can significantly inhibit the expression of genes related to the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway,reduce the density of EGFR on the surface of GIST cells,and attenuate their molecular binding to EGF,thereby reducing the migration and invasion of GIST cells.However,the combination of these two drugs has a more significant effect.
