In recent years, the impact of meteorological factors on health and injury has been paid more and more attention. Severe weather events were considered to be an important risk factor for traffic accident injuries. Evidence from a large number of epidemiological studies suggests that meteorological factors, including high temperatures, rainfall, snowfall, wind and visibility, might be related to the occurrence of traffic accidents. This systematic review attempts to summarize the current research status of meteorological factors on traffic accident injury, systematically review the relationship between meteorological factors and traffic accident injury, and discuss how to further carry out related research.

Objective To analyze the prognosis of pediatric burns and its influencing factors. Methods Clinical data of 1 737 children with burns from January 2013 to December 2017 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University was analyzed by retrospective method. The demographic, clinical features, and related factors affecting prognosis . Results Log-binominal regression model showed that the care rate was higher in children aged 1- and 3- compared with children aged 7-12 (all P<0.05); Boiling water burns had a higher care rate than electric shock and flame burns (including chemical burn) (all P<0.05); Moderate and severe burns had a higher care rate than heavy severe burns (all P<0.05); The unhealed rate of pediatric burns in summer was higher than burned in winter (RR=0.861,95% CI:0.690-1.074); Children without complications had a higher care rate (P<0.05); Children lived in rural areas have a higher unhealed rate than lived in urban areas (RR=0.713，95% CI:0.618-0.824). Conclusions The care rate of pediatric burns was 51.1%. Major influencing factors included children aged 7-12, burned by electric and flame (including chemical burns), burned severe extraordinarily, burned in summer, and with complications, lived in rural.

Objective: To investigate the correlation between skin elasticity and setup error in optical surface image-guided radiotherapy. Methods: The skin elasticity (R7) data of the head, chest and abdomen were extracted and analyzed its correlation with age by systematic literature review. Fifty-four patients diagnosed with nasopharyngeal carcinoma, breast cancer and cervical cancer were recruited in this study. Firstly, the patients were positioned based on the room laser and markers. Subsequently, the patient position was verified by the Varian On-Board Imager, and then C-Rad Catalyst was adopted to obtain surface images in two states (mask or non-mask) as reference images. In the subsequent fraction treatment, after initial positioning, the local calibration was performed by Catalyst, and setup errors in three directions were recorded. Meanwhile, the patient setup was verified by CBCT twice a week. The Pearson correlation analysis was performed to analyze the correlation between setup error and age. Results: The skin elasticity was negatively correlated with aging (P<0.01). The correlation coefficient between random error and age in head-and-neck cancer were 0.645, 0.624 and 0.866 in the AP, SI and LR directions (all P<0.05) for male patients without mask, respectively. The system error was significantly correlated with age in the LR direction (P<0.05) for male patients, and in the AP direction (P<0.05) for female patients with head-and-neck cancer without mask. The setup error had a significant correlation with skin elasticity in male patients with head-and-neck cancer, and the sequence of absolute value of correlation coefficient was LR>SI>AP. Conclusion In optical surface-guided radiotherapy of head and neck cancer, skin elasticity may be a significant index for assessing the setup errors in male patients.

Objective: To investigte the efficacy of docetaxel combined with androgen deprivation therapy for the treatment of metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer based on Chinese population. Methods: A total of 497 patients were enrolled from January 2004 to July 2018 in the Changhai Hospital. 459 patients received androgen deprivation therapy alone and 38 patients received androgen deprivation therapy combined with docetaxel. The mean age was (72.1±8.7)years. The median PSA level was 100.0 ng/ml, ranging 42.3-999.0 ng/ml. Patients of clinical T₂, T₃, T₄ stage were 213(42.9%), 160(32.2%), 124(24.9%), respectively. Patients of clinical N₀, N₁, N_x stage were 319(64.2%), 144(29.0%), 34(6.8%), respectively. Patients of clinical M₀, M_1a, M_1b, M_1c, M_x stage were 100(20.1%), 51(10.3%), 332(66.8%), 9(1.8%), 5(1.0%), respectively. Gleason scores of biopsy showed that 146(29.4%) patients was ≤7, 103(20.7%) was 8 and 248(49.9%)was ≥9. Propensity score matching was used to match the baseline between groups. Caliper value was set at 0.02. SPSS 22 software was used to achieve a 1∶1 match between the two groups. There were no statistical difference in the age(P=0.102), PSA(P=0.713), T stage(P=0.113), N stage(P=0.226), M stage(P=0.514), Gleason score(P=0.612), tumor loading(P=0.812)between the two groups. The castration resistance-free rate and cancer specific survival rate of the two groups were compared by log-rank and breslow-wilcoxon test. Furthermore, forest plots were used to display the analysis results of different subgroups such as age, PSA, clinical stage, Gleason score, tumor load, whether patients had received palliative resection, and the differences in castration resistance-free rate were compared between the subgroups with high tumor load. Results: The median follow-up time was 22.6 months in the androgen deprivation therapy group and 13.7 months in the combined therapy group. The number of patients with castration resistance in the two groups was 23 and 17, respectively. There were 3 and 6 deaths, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in the overall progression time to castration resistance between the two groups (10.3 m vs. 16.5 m, P>0.05), and no statistically significant difference in the prostate cancer specific survival rate (21.9 m vs.14.8 m, P>0.05). When subgroup analysis was performed, it was found that patients in the high-metastasis-volume subgroup who received the combination therapy had a significantly longer castration resistance free lifetime (10.6 m vs. 7.2 m, P=0.044), but there was no significant difference in the low- metastasis-volume subgroup(10.5 m vs.12.6 m, P>0.05). Conclusion Docetaxel combined with androgen deprivation therapy can improve the castration resistance free rate in patients with high metastasis volume, but not in low metastasis volume group.

Objective: To discuss the treatment, pathological subtypes and recurrence of sinonasal chondrosarcoma, and to identify the prognostic factors. Methods: Between January 1994 and May 2018, 47 patients with sinonasal chondrosarcoma who were treated in Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital, Shanghai Medwal College, Fudan University were retrospectively reviewed, including 19 males and 28 females, aging from 7 months to 71 years old, with a median age of 38 years old. The clinical symptoms, location of tumor, surgical method, pathological subtype, recurrence and prognosis were collected and analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the disease-specific survival rate, disease-free survival rate and draw survival curve. Log Rank was used to analyze the prognostic factors. Cox regression was used for multivariate analysis. Results: Except for one patient who gave up treatment after tumor biopsy, other 46 patients underwent radical resection, including 31 cases of endoscopic resection and 15 cases of extranasal approach resection. Thirty-nine patients were diagnosed as conventional intramedullary chondrosarcoma with pathological grade Ⅰ of 24 cases and grade Ⅱ of 15 cases. Six cases were diagnosed as mesenchymal chondrosarcoma while 2 cases were diagnosed as myxoid chondrosarcoma. During an average follow-up period of 56.1 months (17-156 months), 23 patients had recurrence (54.8%, 23/42), among whom 9 patients had re-operations and 5 patients died. Thirty-seven patients survived, including 25 patients survived without tumors. In addition, 5 patients were lost to follow-up, including the patient who gave up treatment after tumor biopsy. Five-year overall survival rate and disease-free survival rate was 84.7% and 34.3%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that invasion of skull base was an independent risk factor affecting disease-free survival rate (95% confidence interval: 1.089-5.825, P=0.031). Conclusions Radical resection is the primary treatment for sinonasal chondrosarcoma. The most common pathological subtype is conventional intramedullary chondrosarcoma. Sinonasal chondrosarcoma has a high local recurrence rate. The long-term prognosis is well after complete excision of the lesion. The most important cause of death is uncontrollable local disease and invasion of adjacent key structures.

Objective: To analyze the genetic characteristics of a five generations pedigree with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH). Methods: Prospective study. Twenty family members included a proband diagnosed as familial hyperlipidemia at the cardiology Department of Xi′an Children′s Hospital in October 2018 were research object. Clinical data were collected. Genome DNAs were extracted. Whole exons sequencing was performed on the proband using target capture next generation sequencing. Candidate gene mutation sites identified by bioinformatics were verified by Sanger sequencing in the family members. The genotype-phenotype correlation of the pedigree was analyzed between heterozygous mutation carriers and non-carriers. Results: The proband was a 7-years and 10-month-old boy. He was born with a roundgreen bean size yellow skin protuberance in the skin of the coccyx. Since the age of 3-4 years old, xanthoma-like lesions with a diameter of 0.5-1.5 cm gradually appeared in the skin of bilateral elbow joints, knee joints and Achilles tendon. The height, weight and intellectual development of the child were the same as those of normal children at the same age. No similar xanthoma-like lesion was found in the other family members. The proband′s total cholesterol (TC) reached 18.16-21.24 mmol/L, and his low density lipoproteincholesterol (LDL-C) was 14.08-15.51 mmol/L. Carotid ultrasonography showed diffuse sclerotic plaques in bilateral carotid and vertebral arteries, and color Doppler echocardiography revealed aortic valve thickening and calcification. Gene testing identified that the proband carried a homozygous mutation C. 418G>A (p. E140K) in LDLR gene inherited from his parents who had a consanguineous marriage and carried a heterozygous mutation of LDLR-E140K, respectively.The TC, LDL-C and apolipoproteinB (ApoB) of LDLR-E140K gene heterozygous carriers ((8.40±0.13), (6.79±0.01) and (1.95±0.05) mmol/L, respectively) were significantly higher than those of non-carriers ((4.59±0.28), (3.35±0.39) and (0.86±0.10) mmol/L, t=7.269, 4.595, 6.311, respectively, P<0.05). Conclusions LDLR-E140K gene homozygous mutation is first reported to be associated with most severe phenotype HoFH. The genotype-phenotype analysis of the pedigree shows that the clinical phenotype of the proband with homozygous mutation is the most serious, and all the heterozygous mutation carriers present with hypercholesterolemia phenotype. The investigation confirms that LDLR-E140K is the pathogenic variation of familial hyperlipidemia.

Objective: To analyze the risk factors of steroid resistant acute graft- versus-host disease (aGVHD) after haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) . Methods: The clinical data of adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) /Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who developed aGVHD after haplo-HSCT in Peking University Institute of Hematology from January 1st, 2010 to December 31st, 2012 were retrospectively reviewed. Results: A total of 85 patients were enrolled in the study, including 55 males and 30 females, with a median age of 30 (19-67) years. After steroid therapy, there were 53 (62.4%) , 6 (7.1%) and 26 (30.6%) patients achieved complete remission (CR) , partial remission (PR) and non-remission (NR) , respectively. The CR rates of the grade Ⅰ/Ⅱ and Ⅲ/Ⅳ aGVHD by steroid therapy were 66.2% (51/77) vs 25.0% (2/8) (χ²=3.639, P=0.048) , respectively. The CR rates of the patients with aGVHD involving 1 target organ and 2 target organs were 77.4% (48/62) vs 21.7% (5/23) (χ²=22.157, P<0.001) . The CR rates of patients with standard risk (SR) and high risk (HR) Minnesota risk score was 67.5% (52/77) vs 12.5% (1/8) (χ²=7.153, P=0.004) . The mononuclear cells≥8.33×10⁸/kg and the HR Minnesota risk score were independent risk factors for steroid-resistant aGVHD in multivariate analysis. Between Minnesota risk score SR (77 cases) and HR (8 cases) groups, the OS rates at 22 months after transplantation were (90.3±3.8) %vs (75.0±15.3) % (χ²=2.831, P=0.092) . After steroid treatment for aGVHD, the OS rates at 22 months in the CR group (53 cases) and non-CR group (32 cases) were (95.2±3.4) %vs (78.6±7.9) % (χ²=5.287, P=0.021) respectively. Conclusion The Minnesota risk score and mononuclear cells count are effective tool for predicting steroid-resistant aGVHD after haplo-HSCT.

Corneal confocal microscope(CCM)is a non-invasive instrument for the study of living cornea and is increasingly being used to evaluate corneal nerve plexus and Langerhans cell lesions. This paper reviews the recent advances in corneal nerve plexus and Langerhans cell lesions from the perspective of the use of CCM in the study of systemic diseases such as diabetes mellitus, Sjogren's syndrome, multiple sclerosis, thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy, fibromyalgia, chronic migraine and Parkinson's disease.

Immunological checkpoint inhibitors of anti-programmed cell death-1 and programmed cell death ligand-1(PD-L1)have already demonstrated remarkable clinical efficacy for solid tumors,however,the effectiveness of single drug therapy in immunotherapy is not very high. Therefore,exploring the appropriate therapeutic predictive biomarkers so as to accurately identify the potential patients suitable for this therapy has become a research hotspot. Studies have shown that biomarkers such as PD-L1,tumor mutation burden and mismatch repair deficiency may be related to the efficacy of immunotherapy. In-depth analysis and exploration of these markers may provide a basis for determining those patients who are more likely to benefit from check-point inhibitor.

BACKGROUND: The injectable carboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan anti-adhesion gel prepared in the previous study combines the advantages of anti-adhesion membrane and anti-adhesion liquid. It can form soft gel in situ in a relatively short time, which is not affected by body position, bear the pressure of surrounding tissues and can be used without compression. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the biocompatibility of medical injectable carboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan anti-adhesion gel. METHODS: Logarithmic growing L929 cells were used as test cells, and the cytotoxicity of injectable carboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan anti-adhesion gel extract was detected by MTT method. The intradermal stimulation test of injectable carboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan anti-adhesion gel extract was carried out in Japanese big ear rabbits. Guinea pigs were used as experimental animals to carry out intradermal induction and local induced delayed hypersensitivity test of injectable carboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan anti-adhesion gel extract. Wistar rats were used as experimental animals to carry out the subchronic toxicity test of injectable carboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan anti-adhesion gel extract. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The cytotoxicity of injectable carboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan anti-adhesion gel extract was grade 1, meeting the standard requirements. Injectable carboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan anti-adhesion gel extract had no potential intradermal stimulation and no potential skin sensitization. In the subchronic toxicity test, the rats were subjected to the tail vein injection of injectable carboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan anti-adhesion gel extract for 28 continuous days, and there was no obvious subchronic systemic toxicity in body mass, hematology, coagulation function, blood biochemistry and visceral pathology. These results indicate that the injectable carboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan anti-adhesion gel has good biosafety.
