BACKGROUND:Currently,there have been a variety of conservative and surgical treatment plans for spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee,achieving excellent results.However,a broad consensus on indication and guide of surgical treatment has not been announced.In clinical practice,there is still a misunderstanding that unicondylar replacement or total knee arthroplasty should be performed upon the discovery of spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee,while an urgent need for universal access to the concept of stepwise therapy. OBJECTIVE:To summarize and find the factors leading to the poor effect of conservative treatment in spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee,which occurred on the medial femoral condyle,from the literature and clinical cases,at the same time,combined with the Koshino stage,to propose the strategy of stepwise spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee treatment on the medial femoral condyle. METHODS:A systematic search of the literature database was conducted to summarize the factors leading to poor outcomes of conservative treatment in spontaneous osteonecrosis of the medial femoral condyle.Meanwhile,according to the Clinical&Health Records for analytics&Sharing system,the cases receiving conservative and surgical treatment in spontaneous osteonecrosis of the medial femoral condyle in the Department of Orthopedics of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from January 2017 to January 2023 were analyzed retrospectively,then the causes of success and failure in typical cases were summarized and analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Early diagnosis and treatment of spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee were very important for prognosis.For sudden knee pain in some patients,if no obvious abnormality was found in the X-ray examination,and the symptoms persisted and could not be relieved for more than 1 week,an MRI examination was recommended to detect early spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee.(2)The X-ray images of Koshino stage 1 and stage 2 of spontaneous osteonecrosis of the medial femoral condyle were difficult to be distinguished,which needed to be probed by MRI.MRI images of Koshino stage 1 were mainly characterized by bone marrow edema,and an osteonecrosis area with a clear boundary was not formed,while MR images of Koshino stage 2 showed a necrotic area with a clear boundary.(3)Five factors leading to the poor effect of conservative treatment on spontaneous osteonecrosis of the medial femoral condyle were summarized:a.The necrotic area was>5 cm2;b.The necrotic area accounted for more than 40%of the condyle;c.relative compression percentage of medial meniscus≥33%(with or without medial meniscus injury and subchondral bone marrow edema);d.MRI depth of necrotic area(anterior-posterior diameter of sagittal necrotic area)>20 mm;e.varus deformity of lower limb>6°.(4)Conservative treatment of spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee in Koshino stage 1 was good.For spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee in Koshino stage 2,conservative treatment was preferred or combined with drilling decompression.If there was no relief or improvement of symptoms or in MRI after 3 months,while the patient had any of the previous five factors,then knee preservation surgery should be considered.For spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee in Koshino stage 3 and stage 4,knee preservation surgery should be selected based on the previous five factors,including age,gender and activity level of the patient.Total knee arthroplasty was used for spontaneous osteonecrosis in Koshino stage 4,which was associated with symptomatic patellofemoral arthritis,valgus alignment,or necrotic area,which greatly affected the stability of unicondyle prosthesis.

Objective:To develop a simple, practical and repeatable ultrasound method to locate the muscle at the trigger point of female myofascial pelvic pain(MPP), which can provide imaging reference for clinical precision treatment.Methods:A total of 113 patients with suspected MPP who came to the Women′s Hospital School of Medicine Zhejiang University from September 1, 2021 to April 20, 2023 were prospectively selected. The gynecologist performed internal examination with index finger on some pelvic floor muscles (puborectalis, pubococcygeus, iliococcygeus, coccygeus) and pelvic wall muscles (piriformis and obturator internus) respectively, searched for the muscles where the pain trigger point was located, and scored the pain by referring to visual analogue scale (VAS) and numerical rating scale (NRS), and then referred the patients to the ultrasound department. The ultrasound doctor used transvaginal ultrasound to display the above muscle groups in real time for observation and appropriate pressure. The muscle where the painful trigger point was located was found through tenderness and the pain score was performed. The two scores were compared for consistency and difference analysis.Results:The trigger point was clear and of good reproducibility. For the location and score of pain trigger points located in bilateral puborectalis, pubococcygeus and coccygeus, there was a strong consistency between the tenderness guided by vaginal ultrasound probe and clinical palpation (the consistency rate was ≥70%), and there was no significant difference in the pain scores of the trigger points located in the puborectalis muscle and coccygeal muscle between the two methods ( P>0.05), and there was statistically significant difference in the pain scores of the trigger points located in the other pelvic floor and pelvic wall muscles (all P<0.05). At the same time, ultrasonic examination made up for the deficiency of clinical palpation in the evaluation of piriformis muscle. Conclusions:The present method for finding the trigger point of MPP guided by the ultrasound probe is a new non-invasive, safe, simple and practical imaging method, which can provide a new imaging reference for the clinical diagnosis of MPP and the formulation of treatment strategies.

Objective:
To understand the public health emergency response capacity in primary and secondary schools, and to explore the problems and challenges in the prevention and control of public health emergency in primary and secondary schools for specific strategies.
Methods:
By using the stratified group sampling method, a questionnaire survey on general situation, knowledge, attitude and training, as well as public health emergencies response capacity among 2 988 teachers or leaders responsible for school emergency response in primary and secondary schools from Beijing, Chongqing and Yunnan.
Results:
Participants varied on their positions, titles, educational background and knowledge accuracy. Higher knowledge accuracy was associated with higher educational background ( χ 2=50.73-203.36, P < 0.05 ). The implementation of regular public health emergency related programs was poorly conducted in high schools (50.0%). Urban schools (42.0%) had higher proportion of qualified health care professionals than rural schools (18.2%), and private schools (48.5%) was higher than public schools (24.7%). The primary challenges included the shortage of guidance from professionals and the lack of related testing equipment (84.91%, 74.03%).
Conclusion
Although the ability of emergency handling of public health emergencies in schools in the three regions is advancing with the times, there are still many deficiencies, some omissions in the mastery of knowledge. It is suggested to inerease pre service and special training of school health work CDC should strengthen technical guidance and work supervision of infectious disease management in schools.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common pathological type of lung cancer. The systemic antitumor therapy of advanced NSCLC has undergone renovations of chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy, which results in greatly improved survival for patients with advanced NSCLC. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), especially targeting programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), has changed the treatment paradigm of NSCLC. ICIs have become the standard treatment for advanced NSCLC without epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR) mutation or anaplastic lymphomakinase(ALK) translocation in the first- or second-line setting, and for locally advanced NSCLC following concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy. ICIs are also promising in adjuvant/neoadjuvant therapy. More and more ICIs have been approved domestically for the treatment of NSCLC. Led by the NSCLC expert committee of Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO), this consensus was developed and updated based on thoroughly reviewing domestic and foreign literatures, clinical trial data, systematic reviews, experts' discussion and the consensus(2019 version). This consensus will aid domestic clinicians in the treatment of NSCLC with ICIs.

OBJECTIVE:To ex plore the protective effects of Longbie capsule contained serum (called“LBJN”for short )on the apoptosis of chondrocytes induced by YAP inhibitor verteporfin and its mechanism. METHODS :Primary human knee osteoarthritis(OA)chondrocytes were extracted by two-step enzymatic digestion ,and then identif ied by toluidine blue staining and type Ⅱ collagen immunofluorescence staining. The effects of 2,5 μmol/L verteporfin alone or combined with 5%LBJN on cell apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry. Solvent control (0.1% DMSO)and 5% LBJN were set. Western blot assay was adopted to detect the expression of apoptosis related proteins (YAP,Bcl-2,cleaved-caspase-3) after treated with 0.1%DMSO(solvent control ),2 μmol/L verteporfin,2 μmol/L verteporfin+5%LBJN 和 0(blank control ),2.5% LBJN and 5% LBJN for 48 h. The expression of autophagy related proteins (mTOR,Beclin-1,LC3A/B) after treated with 0 (blank control ),2.5%,5% LBJN for 48 h were det ected by Western blot assay. RESULTS :The isolated cells accorded with the characteristics of chondrocytes. Compared with 0.1%DMSO, the apoptosis rates of cells were increased significantly after treated with 2,5 μmol/L verteporfin(P<0.05),and the effects of the two concentrations were similar (P>0.05). Compared with verteporfin alone ,2,5 μmol/L verteporfin combined with 5%LBJN could significantly decrease the apoptotic rate of cells (P<0.05). Compared with 0.1%DMSO,the protein expression of YAP and Bcl-2 were decreased significantly after treated with 2 μ mol/L verteporfin (P<0.05), while the protein expression of cleaved-caspase-3 were increased significantly (P<0.05). Compared with 2 μmol/L verteporfin,protein expression of YAP and Bcl-2 were increased significantly after treated with 2 μmol/L verteporfin+5%LBJN(P<0.05),while the protein expression of cleaved-caspase-3 were decreased significantly (P<0.05). Compared with blank control ,the protein expression of YAP ,Bcl-2 and Beclin-1 were increased significantly after treated with 2.5%,5%LBJN(P<0.05),while protein expression of cleaved-caspase- 3 and mTOR were decreased significantly (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS :LBJN can block the apoptosis of chondrocytes induced by YAP inhibitor verteporfin ,and its mechanism may be related to regulating the expression of apoptosis related proteins and enhancing autophagy of chondrocytes.

Objective:To investigate the clinical therapeutic efficacy and safety of domestic imatinib mesylate in treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML).Methods:The clinical data of 87 CML-chronic phase patients treated by domestic imatinib between December 2013 and March 2018 in the Affiliated Hospital of the Southwest Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical therapeutic efficacy and safety of imatinib was analyzed.Results:The completely hematologic reaction (CHR) rate was 95.4% (83/87), 97.7% (85/87) and 100.0% (87/87), respectively after treatment at 3, 6 and 12 months. The completely cytogenetic reaction (CCyR) rate was 31.0% (27/87), 42.5% (37/87) and 64.4% (56/87), respectively at 3, 6 and 12 months. At 3-month, BCR-ABL/ABL IS value was equal to or less than 10% in 44 patients (50.6%), BCR-ABL/ABL IS value was equal to or less than 0.1% in 4 patients (4.6%). At 6-month, BCR-ABL/ABL IS value was equal to or less than 1% in 39 patients (44.8%), BCR-ABL/ABL IS value was equal to or less than 0.1% in 13 patients (14.9%). The major molecular response rate at 12-month was 35.6% (31/87). The major hematologic adverse reaction was grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ hemacytopenia. The common non-hematology adverse reactions were edema, muscular and joints soreness, nausea and vomiting and diarrhea. Most patients didn't have severe adverse reactions. Conclusions:The clinical efficacy of CML patients treated with domestic imatinib is sure; CML patients are well-tolerated and the adverse reactions are mild. It is worthy of wide application in clinical treatment.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common pathological type of lung cancer, most NSCLC patients are at advanced stage at the time of diagnosis. For patients without sensitive driven-oncogene mutations, chemotherapy is still the main treatment at present, the overall prognosis is poor. Improving outcomes and obtaining long-term survival are the most urgent needs of patients with advanced NSCLC. In recent years, immunotherapy has developed rapidly. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), especially targeting programmed death-1 (PD-1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), have made a breakthrough in the treatment of NSCLC, beneficial to patients' survival and changed the treatment pattern for NSCLC. It shows more and more important role in the treatment of NSCLC. Led by NSCLC expert committee of Chinese society of clinical oncology (CSCO), relevant experts in this field were organized. On the basis of referring to domestic and foreign literature, systematically evaluating the results of Chinese and foreign clinical trials, and combining the experiences of the experts, the experts group reached an agreement to develop this consensus. It will guide domestic counterparts for better application of ICIs to treat NSCLC.

Objective To investigate the association between non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and hepatitis B virus (HBV). Methods The serum HBV markers in 305 NHL patients who were diagnosed in the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University from January 2014 to December 2016 was detected by automatic chemiluminescence immunoassay. The infection rate of HBV in NHL patients was compared with that in 312 colorectal cancer patients and the national general population (81775 peoples). Results The positive rates of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) and hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) in 305 patients of NHL were compared with the general population [19.0 % (58/305) vs. 7.2 % (5888/81775), 44.3 % (135/305) vs. 50.1 % (40969/81775), 45.9 % (140/305) vs. 34.1 %(27885/81775)], and the differences were statistically significant (χ2 values were 63.1, 4.1, 18.8, all P<0.05). The positive rate of HBsAg in NHL patients was compared with colorectal cancer patients and the general population, and the differences were statistically significant (χ2= 65.7, P< 0.01). The positive rate of HBsAg in B-cell NHL was statistically different from T-cell NHL [21.3%(51/239) vs. 10.6%(7/66),χ2=3.869, P<0.05]. But the positive rate of HBcAb and HBsAb in B-cell NHL were compared with T-cell NHL, and there was no statistically significant difference (both P> 0.05). Among 133 NHL patients, the HBV DNA positive rate was 33.1 % (44/133), and 74.1 % (43/58) in 58 cases of HBsAg-positive NHL, while 4.2 % (1/24) in 24 cases of HBsAg-negative but HBcAb-positive NHL. Conclusions The infection rate of HBV in NHL patients is higher than that in colorectal cancer patients and the general population, in which the occult HBV infection is worthy of much attention. The positive rate of HBsAg in T-cell NHL patients is lower than that in B-cell NHL patients. For NHL patients with HBV infection, anti-HBV treatment to prevent reactivation of the virus should be given before the anti-tumor treatment.
