OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of modified high tibial osteotomy combined with platelet-rich plasma in the treatment of moderate to severe knee osteoarthritis. METHODS: From January 2021 to March 2022, the clinical data of 60 patients with moderate to severe knee osteoarthritis admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine were analyzed. Among them, 30 patients were treated with modified tibia high osteotomy combined with platelet-rich plasma as the observation group, including 12 males and 18 females, aged from 51 to 74 years old, with an average age of (64.37±5.72) years old. The course of disease ranged from 1 to 7 years with an average of(3.43±1.41) years. Thirty patients were treated with modified high tibial osteotomy combined with sodium hyaluronate as control group, including 10 males and 20 females, aged from 50 to 78 years, with an average age of (64.33±8.18) years. The course of disease was 1 to 7 years with an average of(3.30±1.39) years. Knee X-rays were taken before surgery and at the last follow-up, and the changes of lower limb bearing-line ratio (WBLR), proximal medial tibial Angle (MPTA), femoro-tibial angle (FTA) and posterior tibial slope (PTS) were compared between the two times. Visual analogue scale (VAS), Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and Lysholm score were used to evaluate knee pain and functional changes before surgery and at 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery. RESULTS: The wounds of all patients healed in stage I after surgery. All 60 patients completed treatment and follow-up, with an average follow-up duration of (8.08±1.75) months, ranged from 6 to 12 months. No serious adverse events or complications occurred. At the last follow-up, WBLR, MPTA and FTA were significantly improved in both groups (P<0.05). At the last follow-up, there was no significant difference in PTS between the two groups compared with pre-operation(P>0.05). At the last follow-up, there were no significant differences in WBLR, MPTA, FTA and PTS between the observation group and the control group (P>0.05). The VAS scores, WOMAC scores and Lysholm scores of both groups were significantly Modified with time after operation (P<0.05). At 1, 3 and 6 months after operation, VAS score, WOMAC score and Lysholm score of the observation group were significantly better than those of the control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). CONCLUSION For patients with moderate and severe knee osteoarthritis, modified high tibial osteotomy can significantly correct lower limb alignment, and combined with platelet-rich plasma therapy can further significantly relieve knee pain and improve knee function, the effect is better than combined with sodium hyaluronate.

Objective To propose an EBT3 film technology-based quality control measurement method for the INTRABEAM PRS500 intraoperative radiotherapy equipment to solve the problems of the traditional methods in cumbersome operation and setup error.Methods According to HJ 1198-2021 Requirements of radiation safety and protection for radiotherapy and GBZ 121-2020 Requirements for radiological protection in radiotherapy,the environmental radiation testing of the INTRABEAM PRS500 intraoperative radiotherapy equipment was carried out point by point by means of the radiation inspection instrument.The INTRABEAM PRS500 intraoperative radiotherapy equipment was characterized by a point X-ray source(XRS),and the XRS was detected in terms of the probe linearity,radiation dose,dynamic deviation,isotropy and dose rate.The EBT3 film technology was used to verify the symmetry and isotropy of the XRS planar dose of INTRABEAM PRS500 intraoperative radiotherapy equipment.Results The X-γ dose equivalent rate of each monitoring site of the INTRABEAM PRS500 intraoperative radiotherapy device was lower than the method detection limit(MDL).The results of SQA quality control showed that the INTRABEAM PRS500 intraoperative radiotherapy equipment XRS met the quality control requirements in terms of the probe linearity,radiation dose,dynamic deviation and etc,and the isotropy differences in the+X,-X,+Y,and-Y axis directions ranged from-1.40％to 1.79％,which were all within the allowable range of measurement tolerance(5.60％to 5.65％).The results of measuring the isotropy of the INTRABEAM PRS500 intraoperative radiotherapy equipment based on the EBT3 film technology showed that the dose distribution of the XRS in the directions of the+X,-X,+Y,and-Y axes at the same plane was well isotropic,and that the doses in the directions of the X and Y axes were symmetrically distributed,and that the maximum skewness value for the isotropy of the XRS in the XY plane was-1.581％,which met the requirements of AAPM TG61 report on the reference dosimetry of low-energy and medium-energy X-rays for radiotherapy and radiobiology of≤±5.3％.Conclusion The EBT3 film technology-based measurement method gains high simplicity and feasibility for the isotropy of the INTRABEAM PRS500 intraoperative radiotherapy equipment in the directions of the+X,-X,+Y,and-Y axes at the same planet,which realizes the dynamic monitoring of the dosimetric changes and facilitates the whole-process quality control management of the intraoperative radiotherapy equipment.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(6):47-53]

Acquired dermal macular hyperpigmentation (ADMH) is a group of diseases clinically characterized by grayish-black macules and patches, with pigment predominantly deposited in the dermis. ADMH includes Riehl's melanosis, lichen planus pigmentosus, and erythema dyschromicum perstans/ashy dermatosis. In light of the remarkable similarities in both morphological and histopathological characteristics among this group of diseases, the academic community has recently proposed the new nosological term "acquired dermal macular hyperpigmentation" to achieve integration and unified classification of these related disorders. This review comprehensively elaborates on advances in the diagnosis and treatment of ADMH, including clinical manifestations, dermoscopic findings, pathological characteristics, and treatment progress.

The high-quality development of public hospitals is the fundamental guarantee for the realization of the strategic task of ensuring people's health.In the development process of public hospitals in the new era,the institutional inertia of traditional decision-making,the complexity of contradictions caused by conflicts of interests,and the diversity of medical staff's ideologies are all constraints to the high-quality development of public hospitals.Based on that,from the perspective of public hospital business,on the one hand,a certain structural system should be reinforced for party building leading the high-quality development of public hospitals around the four dimensions of governance structure,medical service capacity,hospital precision management,and culture brand;on the other hand,relevant methods such as political guidance,organizational coverage,management optimization and cultural guidance should be supplied to explore a better path for party building leading the public hospitals' development through systemic reform,thus achieving the goal of high-quality development of public hospitals.
