Objective To explore clinical effect of distal tibial tubercle-high tibial osteotomy(DTT-HTO)in treating knee osteoarthritis(KO A)with medial meniscus posterior root tear(MMPRT).Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 21 patients with varus KOA with MMPRT from May 2020 to December 2021,including 3 males and 18 females,aged from 49 to 75 years old with an average of(63.81±6.56)years old,the courses of disease ranged from 0.5 to 18.0 years with an average of(5.9±4.2)years,and 4 patients with grade Ⅱ,14 patients with grade Ⅲ,and 3 patients with grade Ⅳ according to Kellgren-Lawrence;14 patients with type 1 and 7 patients with type 2 according to MMPRT damage classification.The distance of medi-al meniscusextrusion(MME)and weight-bearing line ratio(WBLR)of lower extremity were compared before and 12 months after operation.Visual analogue scale(V AS),Western Ontarioand and McMaster Universities(WOMAC)osteoarthritis index,and Lysholm knee score were used to evaluate knee pain and functional improvement before operation,1,6 and 12 months after operation,respectively.Results Twenty-one patients were followed up for 12 to 18 months with an average of(13.52±1.72)months.MME distance was improved from(4.99±1.05)mm before operation to(1.87±0.76)mm at 12 months after operation(P＜0.05).WBLR was increased from(15.49±7.04)％before operation to(62.71±2.27)％at 12 months after operation(P＜0.05).VAS was decreased from(7.00±1.14)before operation to(2.04±0.80),(0.90±0.62)and(0.61±0.50)at 1,6 and 12 months after operation.WOMAC were decreased from preoperative(147.90±9.88)to postoperative(103.43±8.52),(74.00±9.54)and(47.62±9.53)at 1,6 and 12 months,and the difference were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Lysholm scores were increased from(46.04±7.34)before oepration to(63.19±8.93),(81.10±6.41)and(89.29±3.04)at 1,6 and 12 months after operation(P＜0.05).Conclusion For the treatment of varus KOA with MMPRT,DTT-HTO could reduce medial meniscus pro-trusion distance,improve the ratio of lower limb force line,and effectively reduce knee pain and improve knee joint function.

Objective To explore whether voluntary wheel running affects liver oxidative stress by regulating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway,thereby alleviating HFFC diet-related lipid deposition in the liver.Methods Eight-week-old C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into a normal diet group(NC group,n=10)and high-fat,fructose,and cholesterol diet group(HFFC group,n=20)after 1 week of adaptive feeding.Ten weeks of feeding later,mice in the HFFC group were divided into a quiet group(HFFC group,n=10)and HFFC combined with exercise group(HFFC+EX group,n=10).HFFC+EX group mice were caged with voluntary running wheels for free movement,and the number of running wheels was recorded every day for 8 weeks.After the last treatment,the mice were sacrificed by fasting for 12 hours at an interval of 24 hours,and the blood and liver were collected for analysis.Results(1)Body weight,liver weight,and liver index of mice fed the HFFC diet were significantly higher than those of the NC group,which significantly decreased after exercise(P＜0.05).(2)Compared with the NC group,HDL-C and LDL-C in the HFFC group were significantly increased,and the LDL-C level was significantly decreased after 8 weeks of exercise(P＜0.05).(3)The liver fat droplet area and liver TG content in the HFFC group were significantly higher than those in the NC group,whereas those in HFFC+EX group were significantly decreased(P＜0.05).(4)Compared with the NC group,the content of oxidase MDA in the HFFC group were significantly increased,and nuclear translocation and gene expression of Nrf2 were significantly decreased.After exercise,the activities of SOD and T-AOC were significantly increased,and the nuclear translocation and gene expression of Nrf2 and expression levels of HO-1 and SOD-1 were significantly increased(P＜0.05).(5)The number of apoptotic hepatocytes and CHOP expression in the HFFC diet group were significantly higher than those in the NC group,whereas the number of apoptotic hepatocytes,and CHOP and Bax/Bcl-2 expression in the exercise group were significantly lower than those in the NC group(P＜0.05).Conclusions Voluntary wheel can alleviate HFFC diet induced liver lipid deposition by regulating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway,thereby alleviating oxidative stress and reducing apoptosis in liver cells.

Objective:To investigate and assess hemolytic transfusion reaction in patient with complex and combined anti-Fya and anti-Jkb which so as to provide a safety blood transfusion strategy.Methods:ABO/Rh blood grouping,antibody screening and identification,and Coombs'tests were performed by the routine serological methods include manual tube and automatic blood group analyzer with matching micro-column gel cards from Diagnostic Grifols and Jiangsu LIBO.The hospital information system and laboratory information system were used to collect dada on patients' blood routine tests,liver and kidney function,coagulation,cardiac function,and other clinical indicators before and after blood transfusion were analyzed and compared in conjunction with the patients'clinical manifestations.Results:The patient's blood group was A/CcDEe.Before two transfusion,the anti-body screening were positive which identification were anti-Fya and anti-Fya combined with anti-Jkb respectively,while the Coomb's test were positive with anti-C3 and anti-IgG combined with anti-C3 respectively.No agglutination and hemolysis was observed in saline medium cross-matching test before two transfusion of Fya-red blood cell.But before re-transfusion agglutinated reaction was observed in cross-matching test by DG Gel Coombs,which strength was 2+on whether major or minor side.The patient developed soy sauce urine/hemoglobinuria and fever after transfused Fya-red blood cell again.Primary laboratory indicators were observed to be elevated,include C-reactive protein from 3.06 mg/L to 29.97 mg/L,total bilirubin from 21.4 μmol/L to 276.3 μmol/L,direct bilirubin from 8.4 μmol/L to 135.6 μmol/L,lactate dehydrogenase from 166 U/L to 1453 U/L.Urinary free hemoglobin test was 4+.The main laboratory indicators reflecting the heart,liver,kidney and circulatory coagulation function also have vary increased and gradually returned to normal after a week. Conclusion:Jkb-incompatible transfusion of the Kidd blood group system can lead to acute hemolytic transfusion reaction,but in emergency implementing incompatible transfusion due to IgG antibodies outside of the primary blood group (such as ABO/RhD)can ensure the implementation of emergency operation.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of 99Tc m-pyrophosphate (PYP) SPECT imaging for the differential diagnosis of transthyretin-related cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Methods:Data of patients who were definitively diagnosed with ATTR-CA (35 patients (28 males, 7 females); age 62.5(58.6, 64.3) years) or HCM (14 patients (13 males, 1 female); age 60.5(57.3, 68.7) years) by extracardiac biopsy and echocardiography in the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University between June 2020 and March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent planar and SPECT imaging 1 h after injection of 370-720 MBq 99Tc m-PYP. Visual scoring was performed (0-1 was negative, 2-3 was positive), and heart-to-contralateral lung uptake ratio (H/CL) was calculated based on planar images. The χ2 test was used to compare the difference in visual scores between ATTR-CA and HCM groups, and the diagnostic efficacy of the visual score was calculated. The H/CL differences between ATTR and HCM groups were compared with Mann-Whitney U test, and the ROC curve was used to analyze the efficacy of H/CL for the differential diagnosis of ATTR-CA and HCM. Results:There were 34 patients with visual scores≥2 and 1 patient with visual score<2 in the ATTR-CA group, 6 patients with visual scores =2 and 8 patients with visual scores <2 in HCM group, and there were significant differences between the 2 groups ( χ2=16.20, P<0.001). The diagnostic sensitivity of the visual score was 97.1%(34/35), and the specificity was 8/14. The H/CL in the ATTR-CA group was significantly higher than that in the HCM group (2.08(1.97, 2.20) vs 1.26 (1.17, 1.35), z=-5.09, P<0.001). The ROC curve analysis suggested that the optimal cut-off value was 1.45 (AUC: 0.980, 95% CI: 0.946-1.000; P<0.001); the sensitivity of H/CL differential diagnosis between HCM and ATTR-CA was 97.1%(34/35), and the specificity was 14/14. Conclusion:99Tc m-PYP SPECT imaging is useful in differentiation of ATTR-CA and HCM, and the optimal cut-off value of H/CL for differential diagnosis of these 2 diseases is 1.45.

Objective To observe the multi-system toxicity of Tripterygium glycosides tablets in rats with type Ⅱ collagen-induced arthritis(CIA).Methods Healthy SD rats were randomly divided into normal group,model group and experimental group,with 10 rats in each group.In addition to the normal group,the other groups were established collagen-induced arthritis model.After the first immunization,the normal group and the model group were given an equal volume of 0.3％sodium carboxymethyl cellulose solution,and the experimental group was given 72 mg·kg-1·d-1 Tripterygium glycosides solution,once a day for 6 weeks.On the 42 nd day,the blood routine of each group was detected and the organ index was calculated.The levels of liver,kidney function and sex hormones in rats were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The histopathological changes of liver,kidney,ovary and testis were observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining.Results The testicular indexes of the normal group,the model group and the experimental group were(0.81±0.05)％,(0.97±0.06)％and(0.81±0.12)％;the estradiol contents were(63.90±16.19),(55.42±7.23)and(40.04±5.97)pg·mL-1;the testosterone contents were(1 290.96±257.94),(1 198.43±190.77)and(912.62±61.72)pg·mL-1,respectively.There were statistically significant differences in the above indexes between the model group and the experimental group(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).HE pathological results showed that Tripterygium glycosides tablets could cause abnormal histopathological changes of ovary and testis in CIA model rats.Conclusion Continuous administration of 8-fold clinical equivalent dose of Tripterygium glycosides tablets for 6 weeks can cause damage to the reproductive system of CIA rats.

【Objective】 To comprehensively explore the serological characteristics of anti-PP1P^k and potential therapeutic strategies for recurrent miscarriage in p-blood type pregnant women. 【Methods】 Neutralization with pigeon egg white and human plasma, disruption of IgM antibodies by 2-mercaptoethanol reagent, and complement adding were conducted. Anti-PP1P^k titers under different processing conditions, media and temperatures were determined, and neutralizing effect of human plasma on anti-PP1P^k and its sensitization complement ability were analyzed. 【Results】 The titers of anti-PP1P^k in saline and column agglutination were 4 and 8, respectively. Low temperature increased titers, while β-mercaptoethanol treatment significantly reduced them. Pigeon egg white partially neutralized anti-PP1P^k antibodies. Human plasma was also capable of reducing anti-PP1P^k titers with neutralization capability surpassing that of pigeon egg white, and there were individual differences in neutralization capability. 【Conclusion】 The anti-PP1P^k was a blend of antibodies encompassing both IgM and IgG types, exhibiting cold reactivity, and having the potential for complement activation. Human plasma emerges as an effective modulator for diminishing the efficacy of anti-PP1P^k. Plasma transfusion holds promise as a therapeutic avenue for addressing recurrent miscarriages in pregnant individuals with the p phenotype.

Objective:To investigate the status quo of training and domestic use of 707 clinical nutrition support specialty nurses from 21 provinces,cities,and autonomous regions in China. And to analyze their influencing factors and provide reference for improving the training system of clinical nutrition support specialty nurses,selection and development of specialist nurses in clinical nutrition support. Methods:From October to November 2023,a cross-sectional survey was conducted on 707 clinical nutrition support specialty nurses from 21 provinces,cities,and autonomous regions across China was conducted using a convenience sampling method based on a questionnaire about the training and home use of clinical nutrition support nurses. Univariate and multiple linear regression analysis was used to examine the use status and application of clinical nutrition support specialty nurses in five aspects:clinical nursing practice,nursing education,nursing management,coordination,nursing research and consultation. Results:The use of specialist clinical nutrition support nurses is not ideal,with 75.67％ of specialist nurses scoring less than 208 points (i.e. less than 80％ of the total score). Among the use of different dimensions,the clinical nursing practice dimension received the highest score (54.17±10.26),followed by the nursing education dimension (36.98±8.00). The results of multiple linear regression analysis show that hospital level and professional title are independent influencing factors influencing the use and development of specialist nurses. Conclusion:There is a need to further improve the utilisation of clinical nutrition support nurses. It is recommended that links and cooperation between hospitals at all levels,communities,and families be strengthened. For specialist nurses with higher professional titles,encourage them to fully play their roles,strengthen training in weak areas,continuously optimize the professional ability of clinical nutrition support nursing teams,comprehensively improve the quality of clinical nutrition support specialist nursing,and promote their high-level development.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of multiparametric ultrasound (mpUS; grayscale US, color Doppler US, strain elastography, and contrast-enhanced US) in the assessment of testicular lesions with negative tumoral markers. MpUS imaging data, patient age, serum tumor markers, scrotal pain, cryptorchidism, and related clinical information were retrospectively collected for patients who underwent mpUS examination between January 2013 and December 2019. Histologic results or follow-up examinations were used as the reference standard. In total, 83 lesions from 79 patients were included in the analysis. Fifty-six patients were finally diagnosed with benign tumors, and 23 patients were ultimately diagnosed with malignant tumors. Chi-square tests or Fisher's exact tests were used to assess the difference between the two groups. Stepwise multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that lesion diameter (odds ratio [OR] = 1.072, P = 0.005), vascularization on color Doppler US (OR = 4.066, P = 0.001), and hyperenhancement during the early phase (OR = 6.465, P = 0.047) were significant independent risk factors for malignancy; however, when compared with neoplastic lesions, pain (OR = 0.136, P < 0.001), absence of vascularization on color Doppler US (OR = 1.680, P = 0.042), and nonenhancement during the late phase (OR = 3.461, P = 0.031) were strongly associated with nonneoplastic lesions. MpUS features are useful for differentiating testicular lesions with negative tumoral markers and improving the preoperative diagnosis, which may avoid inappropriate radical orchiectomy.
