BACKGROUND:Titanium elastic intramedullary nailing for the treatment of significantly displaced midshaft clavicle fractures has the characteristics of minimally invasive and elastic fixation.The displacement of the fracture is closely related to the later function.However,there are few studies on the three-dimensional displacement analysis of the fracture ends before surgery and after intramedullary fixation such as titanium elastic intramedullary nailing.OBJECTIVE:To explore the three-dimensional displacement of fracture ends after midshaft clavicle fracture and fixation with titanium elastic intramedullary nails,and to analyze the risk factors.METHODS:A total of 91 patients with midshaft clavicle fracture(fracture end shortening ≥15 mm)admitted to Wendeng Orthopedic Hospital of Shandong Province from April 2019 to April 2024 were selected,including 57 males and 34 females,aged(51.73±10.21)years old.All patients received closed reduction and internal fixation with titanium elastic intramedullary nail.CT scans of the affected clavicle were performed before and on the first day after surgery.The CT data were imported into Mimics software for modeling.The length of the clavicle,lateral displacement of the fracture end,and rotation of the distal end of the fracture along the X,Y,and Z axes were measured and recorded before and after surgery.Pearson correlation coefficient was used for correlation analysis of various parameters,and generalized linear regression was used to evaluate risk factors.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Preoperatively,the variable that increased the risk of lateral displacement was the number of comminuted bone fragments,the variable that increased the risk of shortening displacement was male patients,and the variable that increased the risk of Z-axis rotation was the left limb.Shortening displacement was significantly positively correlated with lateral displacement(r=0.715,P<0.001);shortening displacement was significantly positively correlated with X-axis rotation displacement and Y-axis rotation displacement(r=0.265,P=0.028;r=0.303,P=0.011);lateral displacement was significantly positively correlated with Y-axis rotation and Z-axis rotation(r=0.258,P=0.032;r=0.250,P=0.038);X-axis rotation was significantly positively correlated with Y-axis rotation(r=0.382,P=0.001),and Z-axis rotation was significantly positively correlated with Y-axis rotation(r=0.280,P=0.020).(2)Postoperatively:The number of scapula fractures and comminuted bone fragments were variables that increased the risk of postoperative shortening and lateral displacement:Preoperative X-,Y-,and Z-axis rotation displacements were risk variables that increased postoperative X-,Y-,and Z-axis rotation displacements,respectively.Postoperative lateral displacement was significantly positively correlated with postoperative shortening and displacement(r=0.584,P=0.000),and postoperative lateral displacement was also significantly positively correlated with postoperative Y axis rotation and Z axis rotation(r=0.360,P=0.002;r=0.250,P=0.038).Postoperative Y axis rotation was significantly positively correlated with postoperative Z axis rotation(r=0.248,P=0.040).(3)The results showed that the three-dimensional displacement of the clavicle end before and after surgery was affected by many factors,especially the number of comminuted bone fragments,scapula fractures,gender,and original rotation displacement.At the same time,there were complex correlations between various displacements,especially the correlation between shortening displacement and lateral displacement was the strongest.

Journal of Public Health and Preventive Medicine 2025;36(1):101-104
Objective To investigate the epidemic characteristics and factors influencing mortality in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV)-coinfected patients in heilongjiang region. Methods The clinical data of 712 HIV-infected patients attending our hospital from January 2019 to December 2023 were analyzed retrospectively. The HCV infections were detected by ELISA, and epidemic characteristics of HIV/HCV co-infected patients were analyzed . Co-infected patients (n=116) were classified into survival group (n=90) and death group (n=26) according to the follow-up results, and risk factors for the mortality of HIV/HCV co-infected patients were identified. Results The prevalence of HIV/HCV co-infection was 16.29%, and the prevalence was the highest in 30-50 age group, accounting for 25.47%. There was no significant difference in co-infection rates by gender and marital status (P>0.05). The co-infection rate was the highest among farmers (26.85%) by occupation and among intravenous drug users (61.90%) by route of infection. No statistical difference was found in gender, marital status, and occupational status between survival group and death group (P>0.05), whereas statistical difference was found in age at diagnosis of HIV infection, route of infection, antiretroviral treatment, percentage of CD4+T lymphocytes, and interval between diagnosis and initiation of treatment between two groups (P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis denoted that age at diagnosis of HIV infection (OR=1.827, 95% CI: 1.263-2.722), route of infection (OR=1.796, 95% CI: 1.248-2.503), antiretroviral treatment (OR=1.724, 95% CI: 1.202-2.367), percentage of CD4+T lymphocytes (OR=2.536, 95% CI: 1.776-3.739), and the time interval between diagnosis and initiation of treatment (OR=1.953, 95% CI: 1.431-2.952) were all associated with the risk of mortality in co-infected patients (P<0.05). Conclusion The overall prevalence of HIV/HCV co-infection is 16.29% in heilongjiang region . In order to reduce the mortality rate of superinfection , we should focus on patients who are ≥ 40 years old, intravenous drug use , no antiviral therapy , low CD4+ T lymphocyte levels for the first time , and have a long interval between diagnosis and initiation of treatment.

Objective To investigate the high-risk factors associated with acute postoperative hypertension (APH) following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy(LSG) in obese patients and to establish a predictive model. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data and laboratory parameters of obese patients who underwent LSG at Department of Metabolic Surgery in our hospital from August 2021 to December 2023. Logistic-LASSO regression analysis was used to identify independent risk factors for APH. A nomogram predictive model was developed based on these factors. The predictive performance and clinical utility of the model were assessed using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, Bootstrap resampling, calibration curve, Hosmer-Lemeshow (H-L) test, decision curve analysis (DCA), and clinical impact curve (CIC). Results The incidence of APH was 55.90%. Body mass index (BMI), platelet count, globulin, uric acid, sodium, fibrinogen, fasting blood glucose, and preoperative diastolic pressure had potential predictive value. Among them, BMI (OR=1.066, 95% CI: 1.003-1.137, P=0.046), platelet count (OR=0.994, 95% CI: 0.998-0.999, P=0.027), fibrinogen (OR=1.943, 95% CI: 1.128-3.479, P=0.02), and preoperative diastolic blood pressure (OR=0.953, 95% CI: 0.918-0.985, P = 0.006) were identified as independent high-risk factors. The area under the curve (AUC) of the nomogram was 0.783 (95% CI: 0.711-0.855), with a sensitivity of 0.817 and a specificity of 0.689. The AUC based on Bootstrap resampling was 0.776 (95% CI: 0.702-0.849). The H-L test yielded P>0.05, and the calibration curve showed good model fit. Both DCA and CIC demonstrated favorable screening efficiency. Conclusions BMI, platelet count, fibrinogen, and preoperative diastolic blood pressure are independent high-risk factors for APH following LSG. The developed nomogram model exhibits good predictive performance and clinical applicability, providing a valuable tool for early screening and prevention of APH in LSG patients.

Objective To explore the effect of aerobic exercise on sarcopenia in CT26 tumor mice through the gut microbiota-skeletal muscle axis and its potential mechanism.Methods Forty-eight SPF BALB/c male mice aged 8 weeks were randomly divided into a normal control group(group NC,n=12),a normal control+aerobic exercise group(group NA,n=12),a CT26 tumor-associated sarco-penia group(group TS,n=12)and a CT26 tumor-associated sarcopenia+aerobic exercise group(group TSA,n=12).After a 2-week adaptive exercise period,CT26 cell suspension(0.2 mL,1×107 cells/mL)was subcutaneously injected into the dorsal region of mice in group TS and group TSA,while group NC and group NA were inoculated with 0.2 mL normal saline.One day later,group NA and group TSA underwent a 4-week aerobic treadmill running intervention(14 m/min,60 min/day,6 days/week).If a mouse failed to complete the target intensity on a given day,its running speed was reduced by 20%the following day.Moreover,group NA and group TSA received no exercise interven-tion.General health status of all groups was monitored throughout the study.The forelimb gripping force,rotarod walking time and the cross-sectional area of gastrocnemius muscle fibers were measured.Moreover,the ultrastructural changes of gastrocnemius were observed by transmission electron micro-scope,while the cecum contents were observed by 16S rRNA sequencing.Meanwhile,the pathological morphological changes of small intestine wall were observed using HE,while the contents of tumor ne-crosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6),interleukin-1β(IL-1β)and lipopoly saccharide(LPS)of serum and gastrocnemius muscle were determined by using ELISA.Moreover,small intestine zonula occludens-1(ZO-1),Occludin and muscle ring finger 1(MuRF1),muscle atrophy F-box(MAF-bx),Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4)/myeloid differentiation factor 8(MyD88)/nuclear transcription factor-κB(NF-κB)signal pathway related proteins expression levels of gastrocnemius muscle,as well as muscle ring finger 1(MuRF1)and muscle atrophy F-box(MAF-bx)were detected using Western blot.Results(1)Subcutaneous tumors were prominent in group TS.The forelimb gripforce,wet weight and cross-sectional area of gastrocnemius,and rotarod walking time in group TS at the 5th and 6th weekends were significantly lower than group NC(P<0.01),while the relative expression levels of MuRF1 and MAF-bx proteins in the gastrocnemius muscle in group TS were significantly higher than the latter group(P<0.05,P<0.01).Moreover,transmission electron microscopy revealed sparse and dis-organized muscle fiber arrangement in group TS,with visible Z-lines but indistinct M-lines,as well as shortened,poorly defined,and thin sarcomeres.(2)The group TSA exhibited significantly higher α-diversity indices(Shannon,Chao1,and Observed species)in gut microbiota compared to group TS(P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.05),while the β-diversity differed to some extent between the two groups.At phylum level,the F/B ratio was lower in group NA than that group NC,with that of group TSA low-er than group TS.At genus level,the relative abundances of Muribaculaceae,Bacteroides,Roseburia,and Alistipes in group NA were higher than group NC,and those of Alloprevotellaand Helicobacter were significantly lower,while those of Muribaculaceae,Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group,Roseburia,Bacteroides,Lachnospiraceae_UCG-001 of group TSA were significantly higher than group TS.Nota-bly,Roseburia and Alistipes were the most significantly enriched genera in group TSA and group TS(LDA score>4 for both).(3)The inflammatory cells of the small intestine wall in group TSA signifi-cantly reduced than those in group TS(P<0.05).Moreover,the expression level of ZO-1 proteins in the small intestine wall were significantly higher in group NA than group NC,and that of ZO-1 and Occludin proteins in the small intestine wall was significantly higher in group TSA than those in group TS(P<0.05).(4)The group NA exhibited significantly lower LPS concentrations in the gastrocne-mius muscle compared to group NC(P<0.05).Similarly,the group TSA showed reduced LPS levels in both serum and gastrocnemius compared to group TS(P<0.05).The relative protein expression of p-IκBα and p-NF-κB p65 significantly decreased in group TSA compared to group TS(P<0.05).The group TS displayed elevated concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines(TNF-α,IL-1β)in serum and gastrocnemius compared to group NC(P<0.01,P<0.05).The group TSA demonstrated significantly lower levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in these tissues in comparison with group TS(P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion Aerobic exercise can improve gut microbiota α diversity,adjusting its composition,improv-ing intestinal mucosal barrier function,reducing the LPS-induced pro-inflammatory response,and delay-ing skeletal muscle atrophy.The underlying mechanism may involve down regulation of TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling in skeletal muscle,which has a positive effect on Gut-Muscle Axis.

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of a combined model based on the radiomics features of magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)and MRI signs in predicting recurrence after radical resection for hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the imaging data of 100 patients with radical resection for HCC who admitted to Zibo 148 Hospital from May 2016 to May 2020.All patients underwent abdominal enhanced MRI examination before surgery,and they were followed up for at least 2 years after the surgery.They were randomly divided into training group(70 cases)and verification group(30 cases)as a ratio of 7:3.According to the postoperative follow-up results,the training group existed 12 cases of recurrence and 58 cases without recurrence,and the verification group existed 5 cases of recurrence and 25 cases without recurrence.The 3D-slicer software was used to extract radiomics features of preoperative MRI images of each HCC patient.The intra-group correlation coefficient(ICC)of the extracted imaging features of the observers was calculated.The maximum related minimum redundancy(mRMR)algorithm and LASSO regression were selected to analyze the established radiomics labels after dimensionality reduction and screening.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to screen the independent risk factors of predicting recurrence in MRI signs,and they were used respectively to construct radiomics models with the radiomics labels of plain scan,arterial phase,portal phase and hepatobiliary phase.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to assess the diagnostic efficacy of each radiomics model in predicting recurrence.Results:The ICC range of two physicians in selecting radiomics features from the MRI images of all patients were between 0.903 and 0.957,which consistency was favorable(ICC≥0.9).Compared with other predictive models,the highest area under curve(AUC)values of ROC curve of the radiomics model of plain scan of training group[0.951(95%CI:0.901-1.000)]and verification group[0.968(95%CI:0.917-1.000)]were respectively 0.951 and 0.968 in predicting recurrence after radical resection for liver cancer.Conclusion:The combined model that is constructed on the basis of MRI radiomics features has favorable predictive value for the recurrence of patients after radical resection for HCC.Among of them,the radiomics model of plain scan has a certain guiding role in the clinical implementation of personalized treatment plans under the absence of enhancement,and in underdeveloped areas.

Objective:To develop and validate a novel PET tracer, N-cyclohexyl-4-((2, 4-dichlorophenyl)(4-(fluoro- 18F)phenyl)methyl)piperazine-1-carboxamide ( 18F-SQKJ-2), targeting cannabinoid type 1 (CB1) receptors for diagnosing psychiatric disorders associated with fear memory. Methods:18F-SQKJ-2 was prepared using a nucleophilic substitution radiochemical synthesis method. For the CB1 receptor blocking experiment, 7 ICR mice were divided into blocking group ( n=4; rimonabant for blocking treatment) and control group 1 ( n=3; no rimonabant blocking treatment). The affinity and specificity of 18F-SQKJ-2 for CB1 receptors were analyzed based on the differences in 18F-SQKJ-2 uptake (percentage injected dose per gram of tissue, %ID/g) by various organs between two groups. The metabolic stability of 18F-SQKJ-2 in vitro was studied using animal tissue homogenates. Ten C57 mice were used to establish fear memory mouse models (fear group, n=6; control group 2, n=4), and the percentage of freezing time was compared between 2 groups. MicroPET scans were used to detect the intracranial distribution of 18F-SQKJ-2, and the relative uptake in each brain region compared to total brain uptake was calculated. Statistical analysis was conducted to compare the differences in CB1 receptor relative total brain uptake in fear-related brain regions between 2 groups. Independent-sample t test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to analyze the data. Results:18F-SQKJ-2 was successfully synthesized with a radiochemical purity ≥98.0% and a corrected radioactive yield of (12.3±6.0)%( n=4). In vitro metabolic stability experiments showed that 18F-SQKJ-2 was basically stable in the liver, blood, and brain within 60min. The CB1 receptor blocking experiment demonstrated that the uptake of 18F-SQKJ-2 in the brains of mice in blocking group was significantly lower than that in control group 1 ((0.95±0.28) vs (3.44±1.16) %ID/g; t=-3.57, P=0.023). The percentage of freezing time in fear group was significantly higher than that in control group 2 (43.28%(39.46%, 52.93%) vs 2.74%(1.52%, 4.85%); Z=-2.45, P=0.010). 18F-SQKJ-2 microPET imaging showed that the uptake of 18F-SQKJ-2 in the cerebral cortex of mice in fear group was significantly increased compared with that in control group 2 ((5.83±0.47)% vs (5.00±0.52)%; t=2.42, P=0.046). Conclusion:18F-SQKJ-2 is successfully prepared with acceptable radiochemical purity and metabolic stability, demonstrating potential for visualizing and quantifying fear memory.
