Objective To observe the impact factors of obesity(Ob)complicated with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods Twenty Ob patients complicated with T2DM(group A)and 47 simple Ob patients(group B)were retrospectively enrolled.The blood glucose related indicators,including fasting blood glucose(FBG),fasting insulin(FINS)and glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR),as well as fat quantitative parameters measured with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry,CT or MRI were compared between groups,their correlations were analyzed,and the impact factors of Ob complicated with T2DM were explored.Results FBG,HbA1c and HOMA-IR in group A were all higher,while the total body fat mass percentage(TFM%)and leg fat mass percentage(LFM%)in group A were both lower than those in group B(all P＜0.05).Proton density fat fraction(PDFF)of liver and lumbar bone marrow in group A were both higher than those in group B(both P＜0.05).TFM%and LFM%in all 67 Ob patients were negatively correlated with FBG or HbA1c,while TFM%and Android region fat mass percentage(Android FM%)were both negatively correlated with HOMA-IR(r=-0.447—-0.263,all P＜0.05).For all 67 Ob patients,the area of visceral adipose tissue(VAT)was positively correlated with HOMA-IR(r=0.339,P=0.006),liver PDFF was positively correlated with FBG,HbA1c and HOMA-IR,and PDFF of lumbar bone marrow was positively correlated with FBG(r=0.323-0.599,all P＜0.05).Elevated LFM%was a protective factor,while elevated PDFF of liver and pancreas were both risk factors of Ob complicated with T2DM(all P＜0.05).Conclusion LFM%and liver PDFF were both impact factors of Ob complicated with T2DM.

Kidney stone is a common urological disorder with an increasing annual incidence，posing a heavy social burden. Previous studies have demonstrated that diverse cell death modalities，including ferroptosis and apoptosis，induce renal tubular epithelial cell injury and thereby promote kidney stone formation. Emerging evidence in recent years has further revealed that immune-inflammatory responses driven by interactions among renal microenvironment components also contribute to kidney stone pathogenesis. This review systematically summarizes current research advances on the mechanisms by which inflammatory cellular components（e.g.，macrophages，T cells），inflammatory mediators（e.g.，inflammasomes，cytokines），microbiota，and their synergistic interactions influence kidney stone development within the renal microenvironment.

Objective:To explore the application of 1 565 nm non-ablative fractional laser in the treatment of enlarged facial pores.Methods:It was a longitudinal cohort study. From September 2020 to September 2021, 68 patients with enlarged facial pores, including 5 male patients and 63 female patients, aged between 20 and 41 (29.3±4.6) years, were treated at the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery of Ningbo Sixth Hospital. They received 1 565 nm non-ablative fractional laser once every month for a total of 3 times. The number, score and percentile ranking of facial pores before and after treatment were recorded and compared by VISIA, and adverse reactions were observed.Results:The facial pores number before and after treatment were 890.75±312.61 and 834.37±289.94, the facial pores score were 25.76±1.08 and 24.81±8.59, respectively, indicating a statistically significant decrease in facial pores number and score compared to before treatment ( t=4.19, 2.65, P<0.05). The facial pores percentile ranking before and after treatment were 4.00% (2.00%, 7.00%) and 5.00% (2.25%, 8.00%), respectively, indicating a statistically significant increase in facial pores percentile ranking compared to before treatment ( Z=-3.35, P<0.05). Three patients had transient pigmentation, all of which were gradually faded within 1 month after the last treatment. One patient had a few inflammatory papules scattered on the cheek, which faded in 3 days by using erythromycin eye cream. Conclusions:The 1 565 nm non-ablative laser can effectively improve enlarged facial pores with light adverse reactions.

In the emergency of the outbreak of COVID-19 in December 2019, Shaanxi Provincial Health Committee mobilized several medical teams from major hospitals in the province, and, by relying on Xi’an Chest Hospital, jointly established an anti COVID-19 consortium to control and eradicate the epidemic in a short time. Information support is an important guarantee for winning this battle. In order to realize the efficient cooperation among multiple medical teams, we have carried out some exploratory and innovative information support services on the basis of the original information system of the chest hospital. In this process, we have gone through some detours. Some compromises were made on some problems that could not be solved in the short term. Finally, in an environment full of uncertainty, a set of information support management system with basically smooth operation was built through rapid trial and error adjustment. The system mainly includes the following aspects: support of the organizational structure and operation process of the anti-epidemic consortium, support for medical collaboration related businesses of multiple medical teams, and support for statistical reports and online meetings. Information support has played a very important role in this action, and this practice has also accumulated experience for us to deal with similar situations in the future.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of a noval anterior cubital approach for the coronoid via flexor?prona?tor teres interval and assess the clinical result. Methods Five formalin?fixed adult cadaver elbows were used. Through a single universal anteromedial longitudinal skin incision, the coronoid tip was exposed via pronator and flexor carpiradialis interval, and coronoid anteromedial facet and base via palm longus and flexor carpi ulnaris interval. The distances from the entry point to the muscles or branching point of the nerves to the line passing through medial and lateral epicondyles, as well as the length were mea?sured with regard to the motor nerve branches arising from median nerve to pronator teres, flexor carpiradialis, palm longus and flexor digiti superficialis, as well as the most proximal two motor branches to flexor carpi ulnaris arising from ulnar nerve. From September 2013 to August 2014, 4 male patients with ulnar coronoid fracture were treated operatively through the above anterior cubital approach in our hospital. They were all left side involved, with an average age of 32 years (range, 16-42 years). According to O’Driscoll classification, there were two cases of type Ib and two cases IIb respectively. They were all treated by open reduction and internal fixation through flexor?pronator teres interval. Results At cubital fossa, there were 2-3 branches to the pronator teres mostly, 1 branch to flexor carpiradialis and palm longus arising from median nerve. The branch to the flexor digiti superficia?lis usually was long and thick, and divided into 2-5 short twigs near muscle. The branch to palm longus had the same trunk with that to flexor digiti superficialis. The branch to flexor digiti superficialis was the most proximal among those passed through the in?terval of pronator teres and flexor carpiradialis, and its entry point to the muscle had an averaged distance of 37.22 mm to the line passing through medial and lateral humeral epicondyles. It was optimal to expose coronoid tip through the interval of pronator teres and flexor carpiradialis. It was safe to expose coronoid proximal to the branch to flexor digiti superficialis. While, it was better to expose the anteromedial facet and base of corocoid through the interval of palm longus and flexor carpiulnaris via median and ul?nar nerve interface. All of the four patients were followed up for an average period of 9 months. They all achieved bone union from 6 weeks to 3months (mean, 9 weeks). All the patients obtained excellent result according to the modified An&Morrey elbow per?formance index with scores from 94 to 100. Conclusion The novel anteromedial cubital approach via flexor?pronator teres is opti?mal for exposure of coronoid.

Objective: To investigate the expression of midkine (MK) gene in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and the clinical significance of MK thereof. Methods: The real-time PCR was used to assay MK gene expression in bone marrow of 15 normal children and 124 childhood ALL patients, including 73 patients in progression and 51 patients in complete remission. Three stratifications of progressing patients were established by prognostic factors such as white blood cell count, age, immunopherotype and response to the 7-day prednisolone prephase. Results: The significant statistic difference in MK gene expression was found between the progression group, the complete remission group and the normal group (P< 0.01). The MK gene expression was over-expressed in B-ALL than that in normal group. Furthermore, there was statistic difference between B-ALL and T-ALL (P< 0.01). But there was no difference in MK mRNA expression between the normal control and T-ALL. The assay in risk stratifications showed that the levels of MK gene were higher in standard risk group and mid-risk group than that in high risk group (P< 0.01 and P< 0.05, respectively). There was no significant difference between standard risk group and mid -risk group (P = 0.32). No correlations were found between MK level and age, gender or lactate dehydrogenase level in serum. The expression of MK was significantly lower in the group with higher white blood cells(WBC≥ 25×10~9/L) than that with lower WBC (WBC<25×l0~9/L) in peripheral blood (P< 0.05). Conclusion: The high level of MK was a favorable prognostic factor in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients.
