Objective To explore the correlation between lipid metabolism disorder in bone marrow and primary osteoporosis(OP),and to evaluate the regulation and clinical significance of lipid metabolism-related genes in primary OP.Methods The differentially expressed genes(DEGs)of OP were obtained from GSE35959 dataset,and combined with human lipid metabolism-related genes to screen the differentially expressed lipid metabolism genes of OP patients.The STRING 11.0 database was used to establish a protein-protein interaction(PPI)network,and the receive operation characteristic curve was used to explore the significance of key proteins in PPI in the differential diagnosis of OP.Results A total of 2105 DEGs(1940 up-regulated genes and 165 down-regulated genes)were identified in the mesenchymal stem cells of OP patients.Of them,75 DEGs were related to lipid metabolism and mainly involved in the cellular lipid metabolism and small molecule lipid metabolism through arachidonic acid and glycerophospholipid metabolism related signaling pathways.The PPI of lipid metabolism-related genes in OP patients contained 75 nodes and 65 interaction relationships(P<0.01).There were 7 nodes(HELZ2,CYP4A11,ALOX5,PTGS2,CYP4F2,ALOX12B,FABP4)with an interaction relationship≥5.The expression levels of these genes in OP patients were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).ALOX5 expression was negatively correlated with HELZ2 expression(P<0.05).HELZ2,CYP4A11,ALOX5,PTGS2,CYP4F2,ALOX12B and FABP4 all showed differential diagnosis significance for OP,and the area under the AUC curve was all>0.80(P<0.05).Conclusion Primary OP patients have lipid metabolism disorders in bone marrow,and lipid metabolism-related genes have a certain regulatory effect on the above process.Seven lipid metabolism-related genes screened in this study have certain differential diagnosis ability for primary OP.

Objective:To understand knowledge, belief, practice level of insulin injection and influencing factors of behavior of clinical nurses in tertiary general hospitals, so as to provide the basis for formulating targeted training programs for insulin injection.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 169 clinical nurses in the adult ward of a tertiary general hospital were selected as the research objects in May 2020. The self-made basic information questionnaire and Insulin Injection Knowledge, Belief and Practice Questionnaire were used for investigation. Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors of insulin injection behavior of clinical nurses.Results:Among 169 clinical nurses, the awareness rate of guidelines was 82.84% (140/169) , 95.86% (162/169) of nurses had patient education experience, the incidence rate of insulin injection needle stab injury was 14.79% (25/169) , and 90.53% (153/169) of nurses had the need to receive insulin injection system training. The total scores of knowledge, belief and practice dimensions of the Insulin Injection Knowledge, Belief and Practice Questionnaire for clinical nurses were respectively 60.00 (45.00, 70.00) , 50.00 (49.00, 50.00) and 85.00 (82.00, 85.00) , and the total score of the questionnaire was 189.00 (178.50, 200.50) . The results of binary Logistic regression analysis showed that knowing the guidelines, receiving insulin injection operation training and insulin injection needle stick experience were the influencing factors of insulin injection behavior ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Clinical nurses in tertiary general hospitals have a high level of insulin injection beliefs and behaviors and there are still deficiencies in insulin injection knowledge. In the training work related to clinical insulin injection, attention should be paid to strengthening and maintaining the belief and behavior of standardized insulin injection, emphasizing the safety of insulin injection, and combining with the technical guidelines and specifications of insulin injection, improving the knowledge reserve and application ability of insulin injection of clinical nurses.

Objective To evaluate the clinical and radiological features of Gorham disease. Methods Clinical and radiological features of Gorham disease were retrospectively analyzed by reviewing the eleven cases from our hospital and the cases reported in the domestic literature in the past fifty years. The diagnoses of all these 11 patients were in accordance with the diagnostic criteria established by Wells and Gray et al. All patients had X?ray plain film, four had CT scan and five had MR examination, with one had additional contrast?enhanced MR examination. Results There were 7 males and 4 females, age ranged from 16 to 66 years with a median age of 32 years. There were six cases involving hand, one involving ulnar and radial bones, one involving acetabulum and three involving jaw bones. The main clinical manifestations were pain, swelling, limited activity, and focal muscular atrophy occurred in 7 cases. On X?ray plain films, the affected bone became thin and the cortexes were not smooth and became coarse in 6 cases. Local lucent area was seen in 5 cases and massive bone absorption was seen in 6 cases. The residual bones showed a tapering appearance in 1 case. Pathological fracture occurred in 1 case. On CT scans, the affected bone became thin and the cortexes became coarse in 4 cases. Local lucent area was seen in 1 case. Massive bone absorption was seen in 3 cases. The adjacent muscular atrophy and widened intermuscular fat space occurred in 2 cases (atrophic bone absorption). On MRI, normal signal intensity of bone marrow disappeared and demonstrated low signal on T1WI and high signal on T2WI. The signal could be homogeneous or heterogeneous. There were widespread strip and patchy high signal areas in the soft tissue around the absorption areas in 4 cases, which resembled the edema?like signal. In 1 case, there was irregular widespread soft tissue mass around the absorption areas with heterogeneous high signal on T2WI. The adjacent muscle showed atrophy, and the intermuscular fat space became wide. There were a total of 92 cases reported cases in the literature including our 11 cases. There were 63 males and 29 females. The onset age ranged from 10 to 40 years in 66/92(72%)cases. The lesion affected one bone in 24 cases, affected two or more bones in 68 cases, out of which 9 cases had single center distribution, 59 cases had multiple centers distribution. Pectoral girdle, pelvis, maxillofacial bones, and hand were the most common sites of involvement in decreasing order. Forty three cases had muscle atrophy and 8 cases had soft tissue mass. Conclusion Gorham disease should be considered when atrophic bone absorption in one bone or continuous bones occurs that does not match clinical symptoms, with soft tissue atrophy but no bone sclerosis or periosteal reaction in the osteolytic areas.

Objective To explore the short term effects of five second-generation antipsychotics on the serum pro?lactin levels of first-episode schizophrenia patients. Methods Two hundred fifty first-episode schizophrenia patients were randomly divided into five groups and were then treated with risperidone, olanzapine, paliperidone, quetiapine or ziprasidone, respectively. The serum prolactin were tested at baseline, and every week following initiation of treatment. The positive and negative symptom scale (PANSS) and the treatment emergent symptom scale (TESS) were used to evalu?ate the effect and side effect of treatment. Results Repeated measure ANOVA for serum prolactin showed that the main effects of time, the main effect of group, and the interactive effect of time and group were significant (all P<0.01). At the first week, the serum prolactin level of risperidone group was higher than all the other four groups (P<0.05). At the sec?ond, third, fourth and fifth week, the serum prolactin level of risperidone group and olanzapine group was higher than the other three groups (P<0.05). At the end of the sixth week, the serum prolactin level of risperidone group, olanzapine group and paliperidone group was higher than the quetiapine and ziprasidone groups (P<0.05). But serum prolactin level of risperidone group and olanzapine group was higher than that of paliperidone group (P<0.05). The changes of PANSS before and after treatment were significantly different among groups (P<0.05). However, the incidence of the side effects was not significantly different among groups (P>0.05). Conclusion The level of serum prolactin gradually increases in schizophrenia patients receiving treatment of antipsychotics. The short term effects of different second generation antipsy?chotics on serum prolactin vary differently. Risperidol and olanzapine result in the elevation of serum prolactin level in the early period of treatment.

Objective To investigate the imaging features of intra-osseous ganglia surrounding the ankle joints and their diagnostic value.Methods Imaging features of 40 cases of intra-osseous ganglia proved by the pathology from 1 982 to 2012 were analyzed ret-rospectively.33 cases underwent radiography,26 cases underwent computed tomography (CT)and 13 cases underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).Results Intra-osseous ganglia were detected at talus in 23 cases,distal tibia in 1 5 cases (8 cases in pos-terior melleolus,6 cases in medial melloulus and 1 case in anterior part of distal tibia),and lateral malleolus in 1 case.Multiple in-tra-osseous ganglia was detected in 1 case,which located in both talus and posterior malleolus.29 cases were oval,monolocular os-teolytic lesions.1 1 cases were multilocular lesions with separation.All cases were observed with slightly sclerous edge.Articular surface disruptions were observed in 1 5 cases,and lesions were connected with the joint space.① Oval cystic translucent areas with sharp and sclerous edge adjacent to the ankle joint were observed in 34 lesions of 33 cases on radiograph.Cracks were noted on the articular surface of 12 lesions.② Round translucent areas with sharp and sclerous edge were observed in 26 isolated lesions on CT images.Cracks were noted on the articular surface of 14 lesions.③ 14 lesions of 13 cases showed low to moderate signal on T1 WI and high signal on T2 WI.Cracks were observed in 4 lesions adjacent to the ankle joint,and soft tissue swelling was noted in 6 le-sions.Conclusion Intra-osseous ganglia can be diagnosed accurately based on the typical imaging features and special locations.

AIM: To investigate the protective effects of diltiazem (Dil) on liver, pancreas and small intestines in hemorrhagic-shock canines and its mechanism. METHODS: The canines were bled to a mean arterial pressure (MAP) of 5.33-6.67 kPa for 30 min to produce the model of shock. During the shock, the dogs received water-soluble calcium channel blocker Dil or normal saline. The MAP was kept at the level for 90 min, then the total blood which was bled previously was reperfused . They were observed for 240 min. RESULTS: Dil could significantly elevated MAP of the hemorrhagic-shock canines ( P
