Skeletal muscle dysfunction is a common extra-pulmonary complication in patients with chronic ob-structive pulmonary disease(COPD),significantly impacting exercise capacity and quality of life,leading to a poorer prognosis and increased mortality.Oxidative stress closely associates with the development and progression of skeletal muscle dysfunction in COPD.Exercise,a core component of pulmonary rehabilitation,stands as the primary non-pharma-cological treatment for skeletal muscle dysfunction in COPD patients and exerts a positive modulating effect on oxidative stress.This paper reviews the effects of oxidative stress on skeletal muscle dysfunction in COPD and discusses the mecha-nisms by which exercise improves skeletal muscle dysfunction in COPD from an anti-oxidative stress perspective.It has been found that oxidative stress affects the structure and function of muscles in COPD patients by upregulating the protein hydrolysis system,disrupting mitochondrial function,and impairing calcium homeostasis.Mechanisms by which exercise modulates oxidative stress to improve skeletal muscle dysfunction include the activation of antioxidant genes such as silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1 and nuclear factor erythroid 2 related factor to enhance the body's antioxi-dant capacity,inhibiting muscle atrophy.Exercise also regulates mitochondrial reactive oxygen species metabolism,im-proving mitochondrial function,and reduces oxidase activity to protect sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium regulation.In con-clusion,the regulation of skeletal muscle oxidative stress by exercise is a crucial target for improving skeletal muscle dys-function in COPD.

Objective:To investigate the effects of a novel retrograde tibial nail (RTN) in the treatment of distal tibial fractures.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted in the 11 patients with distal tibial fracture who had been admitted to Department of Traumatic Orthopedics, The Second Affiliated Hospital, Hengyang Medical School from July 2020 to July 2021. There were 5 male and 6 females, aged from 18 to 70 years (average 54.7 years). By the AO/OTA classification, there were 7 extra-articular distal fractures (3 cases of type 43-A1, 3 cases of type 43-A2 and one type 43-A3) and 4 intra-articular fractures (2 cases of type 43-C1 and 2 cases of type 43-C2); by the Gustilo classification, there were 7 closed fractures and 4 open fractures (2 cases of type I and 2 cases of type Ⅱ). All fractures were fixated with a novel RTN. Deformities like distal tibial varus and valgus as well as fracture-related complications were observed after operation while the curative effects evaluated by the ankle-hindfoot score of the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS).Results:This cohort was followed up for an average of 7.4 months (from 5 to 12 months). All patients obtained clinical union and recovered daily life and work. Radiographic evaluation showed no distal tibial varus or valgus. There were no such complications as postoperative infection, exposure of bone and internal fixation, compartment syndrome, or neurovascular lesion. According to the ankle-hindfoot score of AOFAS, 7 cases were excellent and 4 cases good.Conclusion:This novel retrograde tibial nail may result in good efficacy in the treatment of distal tibial fracture, but its advantages still need further verification.

Objective:To establish a nomogram model for predicting the risk of coronary artery disease in elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods:The clinical data of elderly patients with AMI who underwent coronary angiography in the department of cardiology of Cangzhou Central Hospital from July 2015 to March 2020 were analyzed, including age, gender, smoking history, underlying diseases, family history, blood pressure, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and several biochemical indicators at admission, such as total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), lipoprotein [Lp(a)], apolipoproteins (ApoA, ApoB), ApoA/B ratio, total bilirubin (TBil), direct bilirubin (DBil), indirect bilirubin (IBil), fasting blood glucose (FBG) and uric acid (UA). Patients were divided into model group (2 484 cases) and validation group (683 cases) according to the ratio of 8∶2. According to Gensini score, the model group and validation group were divided into mild lesion group (0-20 points) and severe lesion group (≥81 points). The differences of each index between different coronary lesion degree groups were compared. Lasso regression and Logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors of aggravating coronary lesion risk in elderly patients with AMI, and then the nomogram prediction model was established for evaluation and external validation.Results:① In the model group, there were significant differences in the family history of coronary heart disease, FBG and HDL-C between the mild lesion group (411 cases) and the severe lesion group (417 cases) [family history of coronary heart disease: 3.6% vs. 7.7%, FBG (mmol/L): 5.88±1.74 vs. 6.43±2.06, HDL-C (mmol/L): 1.48±0.69 vs. 1.28±0.28, all P < 0.05]. In the validation group, there were significant differences between the mild lesion group (153 cases) and the severe lesion group [132 cases; FBG (mmol/L): 5.58±0.88 vs. 6.85±0.79, HDL-C (mmol/L): 1.59±0.32 vs. 1.16±0.21, both P < 0.05]. ② Lasso regression analysis showed that family history of coronary heart disease, FBG, and HDL-C were risk factors of coronary artery disease in elderly patients with AMI, with coefficients 0.118, 0.767, and -0.558, respectively. Logistic regression analysis showed that FBG [odds ratio ( OR) = 1.479, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.051-2.082, P = 0.025] and HDL-C ( OR = 0.386, 95% CI was 0.270-0.553, P < 0.001] were independent risk factors of coronary artery disease in elderly patients with AMI. ③ According to the rank score of FBG and HDL-C, the nomogram prediction risk model of aggravating coronary artery disease degree was established for each patient. It was concluded that the risk of coronary artery disease in elderly people with higher FBG level and (or) lower HDL-C level was significantly increased. ④ The nomogram model constructed with the model group data predicted the risk concordance index (C-index) was 0.689, and the C-index of the external validation group was 0.709. Conclusions:FBG and HDL-C are independent risk factors for aggravating coronary artery disease in elderly patients with AMI. The nomogram model of aggravating coronary artery disease in elderly patients with AMI has good predictive ability, which can provide more intuitive research methods and clinical value for preventing the aggravation of coronary artery disease in elderly patients.
