Objective:To investigate the relationship between blood pressure variability (BPV) and incidence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in trauma patients.Methods:Patients admitted to the department of emergency medicine of the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University for acute trauma from January 2018 to December 2021 were enrolled. The clinical data and blood pressure at admission (T1), 10 minutes before anesthesia (T2), 60 minutes after surgery (T3), and 24 hours after surgery (T4) were collected. Coefficient of variation of blood pressure variation [CV-BP, including coefficient of variation of systolic blood pressure (CV-SBP), coefficient of variation of diastolic blood pressure (CV-DBP), coefficient of variation of mean arterial pressure (CV-MAP)] and its quartile were calculated. Patients were divided into Q1 group (CV-MAP ≤ 7.27), Q2 group (7.27 < CV-MAP ≤ 9.50), Q3 group (9.50 < CV-MAP ≤ 14.05) and Q4 group (CV-MAP > 14.05) according to CV-MAP quartile. The PTSD symptoms of the patients were evaluated using the PTSD scale (PCL-5) one month later, and the patients were divided into the PTSD group and the non-PTSD group according to whether PCL-5 score higher than 38. Then the differences of the above indicators were compared and analyzed. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship between each index and PCL-5 score; the risk factors of PTSD were analyzed by univariate binary Logistic regression. Variables with P < 0.05 were included in the multivariate binary Logistic regression model. The receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to analyze the predictive value of CV-MAP on the incidence of PTSD. Results:A total of 112 patients were enrolled, including 24 in PTSD group and 88 in non-PTSD group. Compared with non-PTSD group, the proportion of women, T1 shock index, proportion of intraoperative and postoperative blood transfusion in PTSD group was higher. Besides, PTSD group also had longer PT, more intraoperative and postoperative blood transfusion, and lower postoperative hemoglobin (Hb) level (all P < 0.05). The T1 SBP, DBP, MAP and T4 MAP of patients in PTSD group were significantly lower than those in non-PTSD group [T1 SBP (mmHg, 1 mmHg≈0.133 kPa): 105.0 (86.3, 121.3) vs. 122.0 (112.0, 132.8), T1 DBP (mmHg): 62.5 (50.0, 77.3) vs. 76.0 (68.5, 82.8), T1 MAP (mmHg): 77.8 (60.4, 91.3) vs. 93.3 (82.5, 99.0), T4 MAP (mmHg): 83.8±9.1 vs. 88.7±10.4, all P < 0.05], CV-SBP, CV-DBP and CV-MAP were higher than those in the non-PTSD group [CV-SBP: 12.80 (10.12, 19.16) vs. 9.30 (6.07, 12.95), CV-DBP: 16.62±6.47 vs. 12.40±5.61, CV-MAP: 14.10 (9.25, 18.85) vs. 8.90 (6.93, 13.29), all P < 0.05]. Spearman correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between CV-MAP and PCL-5 scores in patients with acute trauma ( r = 0.429, P < 0.001); multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis showed that only CV-MAP [odds ratio ( OR) = 1.128, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.015-1.254, P = 0.025] and CV-DBP ( OR = 1.114, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.016-1.221, P = 0.022) was the risk factor for PTSD in acute trauma patients. Compared with Q1 group, Q4 group was significantly more likely to develop PTSD ( OR = 18.6, 95% CI was 1.9-179.1, P = 0.012). CV-SBP, CV-DBP and CV-MAP had certain predictive value on PTSD diagnosis in patients with acute trauma according to ROC curve analysis results [area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.713, 0.682 and 0.726, respectively], among which CV-MAP has the highest predictive value. When the cut-off value of CV-MAP was 12.158, the sensitivity was 75.0% and the specificity was 69.3%. Conclusion:Higher BPV after trauma is a risk factor for PTSD. Maintaining stable blood pressure in trauma patients is of great significance for prevention and treatment of PTSD.

Objective:To compare the short-term efficacy of orthopedic robot-assisted and traditional fluoroscopy-guided sustentaculum talus screw fixation of Sanders type II and III calcaneal fracture with.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 54 patients with Sanders type II and III calcaneal fracture admitted to People′s Hospital of Nanchang County of Jiangxi Province from October 2020 to October 2021, including 30 males and 24 females; aged 29-57 years [(39.5±7.4)years]. Type of fracture was Sanders type II in 38 feet and Sanders type III in 22 feet. Sustentaculum talus screw fixation was performed using orthopedic robot-assisted technique in robot group (26 patients, 28 feet) and using intraoperative fluoroscopy-guided technique in freehand group (28 patients, 32 feet). The intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency, incision length, intraoperative blood loss and operation time were recorded. Calcaneus width, B?hler angle and Gissane angle were measured preoperatively and at 3-, 6-month postoperatively. Foot function was assessed using the Maryland scale at 6 months after operation. Postoperative complications were observed.Results:All patients were followed up for 6-8 months [(6.9±0.7)months]. The intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency and operation time were (2.8±0.7)times and (46.9±2.4)minutes in robot group, compared to (10.1±2.0)times and (75.6±3.1)minutes in freehand group (all P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the incision length and intraoperative blood loss between the two groups (all P>0.05). The calcaneus width, B?hler angle and Gissane angle in the two groups were improved at postoperative 3, 6 months when compared with preoperative ones (all P<0.05), and the improvement was much better in robot group than that in freehand group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). The excellent and good rate of Maryland score was 100% (28/28) (21 excellent, 7 good) in robot group at postoperative 6 months, compared to 78.1% (25/32) (19 excellent, 6 good, 7 fair) in freehand group ( P<0.05). The postoperative complication rate was 0% (0/28) in robot group and was 6.3% (2/32) in freehand group ( P>0.05). Conclusion:For Sanders type II and III calcaneal fracture, orthopedic robot-assisted sustentaculum talus screw fixation is superior to traditional fluoroscopy-guided internal fixation since it can significantly reduce intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency, shorten operation time, improve calcaneus width, B?hler angle and Gissane angle, and achieve better foot function.

Objective:To explore the effects of conditioned medium of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on the proliferation, adhesion and differentiation of immortalized human Müller cell line (MIO-M1).Methods:The differentiation was induced in the third-passage BMSCs with osteogenic, chondrogenic and adipogenic medium and identified by alizarin red, alcian blue and oil red O staining, respectively.The expression levels of mesenchymal stem cell markers CD73, CD90 and CD105 and hematopoietic cell markers CD34, CD45 and human leukocyte antigen-DR (HLA-DR) were assayed by flow cytometry.The expressions levels of Müller cell markers SOX9, glutamine synthetase (GS), vimentin and cellular retinaldehyde-binding protein (CRALBP), retinal stem cell markers SOX2, nestin and CHX10, and cell proliferation marker cyclin D3 (CCND3) in MIO-M1 cells were detected by immunofluorescence staining.The MIO-M1 cells were divided into standard medium group, 293T conditioned medium group, and BMSC conditioned medium group and were incubated in the medium according to grouping.The cellular area, circularity, elongation factor and perimeter were analyzed quantitatively.The cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry, and the cell proliferation was determined by neurospora experiment and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) staining.The expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) at protein and mRNA levels in the culture supernatant was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), respectively.The expression of retinal neuron markers protein kinase C (PKCα), Rhodopsin, microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) and β-tubulin (Tuj1) was detected by immunofluorescence staining and qRT-PCR.Results:CD73, CD90, CD105 showed an enhanced expression, and CD34, CD45 and HLA-DR showed weakened expression in the BMSCs.The BMSCs differentiated into osteoblasts, chondrocytes and adipocytes.Expression of SOX9, GS, vimentin and CRALBP, SOX2, CHX10, nestin and CCND3 was found in the MIO-M1 cells.Compared with standard medium group and 293T conditioned medium group, MIO-M1 cells cultured in BMSC conditioned medium group changed into an elongated spindle-shaped or multipolar morphology with reduced cell area, increased elongation index and decreased circularity, showing statistically significant differences among them ( F=6.973, 12.370, 6.311; all at P<0.01). There were increased neurospheres formed by MIO-M1 cells in BMSC conditioned medium group compared with standard medium group and 293T conditioned medium group at different time points ( Fgroup=134.300, P<0.001; Ftime=82.910, P<0.001). Compared with the standard medium group and 293T conditioned medium group, the EdU-positive rate and proliferation index of MIO-M1 cells in BMSC conditioned medium group were significantly increased, with statistically significant differences ( F=6.973, 74.110; all at P<0.05); the VCAM-1 protein expression in cell supernatant and the relative expression level of VCAM-1 mRNA in BMSC conditioed medium group were significantly increased ( F=13.720, 7.896; all at P<0.05); the mRNA expression levels of PKCα, Rhodopsin, Tuj1 and MAP2 were higher in MIO-M1 cells of BMSC conditioned medium group under the condition of differentiation ( F=14.490, 5.424, 14.330, 7.405; all at P<0.05). Conclusions:BMSCs conditioned medium can change the morphology of MIO-M1 cells and promote their proliferation, adhesion and differentiation into retinal neurons.

Objective:To explore the mediating role of self-control in the relationship between alexithymia and internet addiction.Methods:From August to September 2019, a total of 433 college students were selected from three universities in Jiangxi province by cluster random sampling method. The Chinese internet addiction scale-revised, the twenty-item Toronto alexithymia scale and brief self-control scale were used for questionnaire testing. SPSS 23.0 software was used for descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation analysis and PROCESS V3.5 macro program was used to test the mediating effect.Results:The total scores of alexithymia, internet addiction and self-control were (53.61±9.44), (45.31±9.84) and (41.91±6.09), respectively. Pearson correlation analysis showed that alexithymia was significantly positively correlated with internet addiction ( r=0.47, P<0.01), and significantly negatively correlated with self-control ( r=-0.37, P<0.01). The negative correlation between self-control and internet addiction was significant ( r=-0.46, P<0.01). Multivariate hierarchical regression analysis showed that alexithymia directly predicted internet addiction after controlling the influence of gender. Self-control played a partially mediating role in the relationship between alexithymia and internet addiction (effect size=0.13, 95% CI: 0.082-0.185), the mediating effect accounted for 25% of the total effect. Conclusion:Alexithymia not only directly affects college students′ internet addiction, but also indirectly affects college students′ internet addiction through self-control.

Objective To investigate the value of multi-modal neuroendoscopy combined with microscopy in the treatment of solid cystic brain tumors. Methods Fifty patients with cystic solid tumors admitted to Wuzhou Worker′s Hospital(the Seventh Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University) from February 2016 to February 2019 were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups by random number table method. The patients in control group (25 cases) received microsurgery, and the patients in observation group (25 cases) received microsurgery combined with neuroendoscopy. All patients underwent CT or MRI. The differences in tumor resection rate between the two groups were observed and compared. The postoperative complications and Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) scores were compared between the two groups. All patients were followed up for 12 months after surgery. The tumor recurrence rate and mortality rate of the two groups were compared. Results The total resection rate of the tumor in observation group was 80.00%(20/25), and in control group was 48.00%(12/25), and there was significant difference (P<0.05). The postoperative GOS score of observation group was higher than that of control group: (4.52 ± 1.73) scores vs. (3.65 ± 1.15) scores, t=2.094, P=0.041. The incidence of postoperative complications, tumor recurrence rate and the mortality rate between two groups had no significant difference (P>0.05). Conclusions Multi-modal neuroendoscopy combined with microscopy can significantly improve the total resection rate of cystic brain tumors and improve the prognosis without increasing the risk of surgery.

Objective To analyze the setup errors of external?beam and intracavitary radiotherapy for cervical cancer based on the data of cone?beam computed tomography ( CBCT) , and to provide a basis for clinical practice. Methods Sixty patients with stage ⅡA?ⅢB cervical cancer who were admitted to our hospital and underwent external?beam and intracavitary radiotherapy from March to June, 2015 were enrolled as subjects. Sixty patients with stage ⅡA?ⅢB cervical cancer undergoing conventional external?beam radiotherapy within the same period were also enrolled. The CBCT?based setup errors, containing setup errors in x, y, and z directions and three?dimensional vector deviation, in the initial treatment were obtained from each patient. Comparison of errors between the two treatment approaches was made by independent?samples t test. Results Fitting the data to a linear model revealed that the setup errors in x, y, and z directions increased with the increase in the distance between the position reference point and the center point of the target volume. External?beam radiation combined with intracavitary radiation had significantly reduced setup errors in x, y, and z directions than the conventional external?beam radiation ( 0.13± 0?12 vs. 0.31± 0?24, P=0?000;0.23±0?18 vs. 0.47±0?36, P=0?001;0.18±0?11 vs. 0.27±0?18, P=0?001). Conclusions In order to reduce the setup errors, CT scan needs not only a reference marker as close as possible to the center of the tumor, but also a reliable and accurate approach for postural fixation.
