Objective:To study the predictive value of serum fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4), serum 25 hydroxyvitamin D [25 (OH) D] and serum visfatin in judging the occurrence of osteoporosis (OP) in elderly pregnant women with diabetes mellitus (GDM) .Methods:120 elderly pregnant women with GDM admitted in Qingdao Municipal Hospital East Branch from May. 2021 to May. 2024 were selected, 16 cases of OP occurred during pregnancy, which were as the observation group, and 104 cases did not occur, which were as the control group. The serum levels of FABP4, 25 (OH) D and Visfatin between the two groups of patients were compared, a Logistic multiple factor model was used to analyze the related factors of OP in elderly GDM pregnant women, a risk prediction regression model was established, and the judgment value of each factor and model were analyzed.Results:There were 16 cases who developed OP among the 120 elderly pregnant women with GDM, the incidence rate was 13.33%. The Logistic multivariate analysis showed that the serum FABP4 ( β=1.074, 95% CI=1.675-5.111, P< 0.001) and serum Visfatin ( β=1.306, 95% CI=2.156-6.322, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for OP in elderly GDM pregnant women, while serum 25 (OH) D ( β=-0.192, 95% CI=0.715-0.952, P=0.008) was independent protective factor for OP in elderly GDM pregnant women. A regression model Logit (P) =1.425+1.074× (X3) -0.192× (X4) +1.306× (X5) was established, which based on the results of logistic multivariate analysis. The ROC analysis results showed that the regression model had a higher accuracy in determining the occurrence of OP in elderly GDM pregnant women ( AUC=0.821, P<0.001) . Conclusions:The serum FABP4, 25 (OH) D, and Visfatin are associated with OP in elderly GDM pregnant women. The regression model established, which based on the detection of these three factors has high accuracy in determining OP.

Objective To explore the relationship between triglyceride-glucose(TyG)index and hypertension in patients with cerebral hemorrhage.Methods A total of 1718 patients with cere-bral hemorrhage admitted to our hospital from January,2013 to May,2023 were enrolled in this study.According to the TyG index quartile,437 cases were assigned into Q1 group(≤8.375),424 cases into Q2 group(TyG index 8.376～8.737),429 cases into Q3 group(TyG index 8.738～9.087),and 428 cases into Q4 group(≥9.088).The general clinical data were compared in the four groups.Logistic regression analysis was used to study the correlation between TyG index and hy-pertension.Results There were significant differences among the four groups in terms of age,hy-pertension,diabetes,SBP,DBP,TC,TG,HDL-C,LDL-C,FBG,glycated hemoglobin and TyG in-dex(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Logistic regression analysis showed that when the TyG index was a con-tinuous variable,it was significantly correlated with the risk of hypertension(OR=1.999,95％CI:1.393-2.869,P=0.001).When the index was used as a categorical variable,with Q1as a ref-erence,TyG index in Q3 and Q4 was associated with an increase in OR of hypertension(OR=1.869,95％CI:1.220-2.865,P=0.004;OR=1.844,95％CI:1.125-3.020,P=0.015).After ad-justing cofounders,the association of TyG index and risk of hypertension was stronger in the fe-males(OR=2.618,95％CI:1.312-5.221,P=0.006)than the males(OR=1.783,95％CI:1.151-2.761,P=0.010),and in the patients ≥65 years old(OR=3.277,95％CI:1.600-6.741,P=0.001)than those＜65 years old(OR=1.782,95％CI:1.076-2.949,P=0.025).Conclusion TyG index is closely associated with hypertension in patients with cerebral hemorrhage,especially in women and elderly.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for acute respiratory failure in immunocompromised patients with Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia(PJP).Methods Clinical data of 123 immunocompromised patients complicated with PJP hospitalized at Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital of Fujian Medical University from January 2021 to December 2023 were retrospectively collected and analyzed.SPSS 22.0 statistical software package was used to perform multivariate binary logistic regression analysis to identify risk factors for acute respiratory failure in PJP patients.Results Among the 123 PJP patients,77 were HIV-positive,and 46 were HIV-negative.HIV-negative PJP patients were more likely to have comorbidities such as hypertension(P＜0.001),diabetes mellitus(P＜0.001),coronary heart disease(P=0.034),chronic kidney disease(P＜0.001),chronic liver disease(P=0.019),chronic lung disease(P=0.011),and malignant tumor(P＜0.001).They were also more prone to respiratory failure(P＜0.001)and ICU admission(P＜0.001).The HIV-positive patients had significantly lower CD4+T lymphocyte counts and albumin levels(P＜0.001).Forty patients developed acute respiratory failure,and six patients died.Multivariate analysis showed that high neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)(P=0.031),non-HIV infection(P=0.002),and concomitant infections with other pathogens(P＜0.001)were independent risk factors for incidence of respiratory failure.ROC curve analysis revealed that the area under the curve(AUC)was 0.686(0.584,0.789)for non-HIV infection,0.731(0.637,0.826)for concomitant infections with other pathogens,0.648(0.546,0.750)for NLR.The predicted probability was 0.845(0.778,0.912).Conclusions Non-HIV infection,high NLR,and concomitant infections with other pathogens are independent risk factors for incidence of respiratory failure in PJP patients.The panel combining these factors provides a higher predictive value for respiratory failure.Timely assessment of patient condition and early treatment are vital for better outcomes.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy combined with hand-sewn esophagojejunos-tomy for gastric cancer.Methods Ninety cases of gastric cancer patients were seleted,of which 45 cases undergoing Roux-en-Y esophagoje-junostomy for digestive tract reconstruction were set as the control group,while 45 cases undergoing hand-sewn esophagojejunostomy for digestive tract reconstruction were set as the observation group.Patients in the control group underwent laparoscopic-assisted total gastrectomy combined with Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy to reconstruct digestive tract,while patients in the observation group underwent totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy combined with hand-sewn esophagojejunostomy to reconstruct digestive tract.The perioperative indicators and complications of patients in the two groups were compared.Results The surgical time,time of esophagojejunostomy,and time to get out of bed after surgery of patients in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group(P<0.05),the pain score 24 hours after surgery was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of the incidence of complications or Clavien-Dindo grading(P>0.05).Conclusion Hand-sewn esophagojejunostomy for digestive tract reconstruction has a good clinical effect in gastric cancer during totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy.It can shorten the surgical time and time of esophagojejunostomy,reduce postoperative pain,and accelerate postoperative recovery,whose safety is comparable to Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy.

Taxifolin (Tax) has been proved to be a medicinal edible substance with protective effects against alcoholic liver injury, however, its poor hydrophilicity and permeability have hindered the clinical application of Tax. In this study, we prepared taxifolin-phosphatidylcholine/sodium deoxycholate/PVP-K30 micells (Tax-MLs). Box-Behnken test was used to obtain the optimal preparation process, and Tax-MLs were characterised by transmission electron microscopy and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Physicochemical parameters such as proximate micelle concentration, equilibrium solubility and oil-water partition coefficient were determined, and the release pattern of Tax-MLs was investigated by in vitro digestion simulation. Alcoholic liver injury model to explore the in vivo efficacy of Tax-MLs. The results showed that the average particle size, polydispersity index (PDI) and zeta potential of Tax-MLs were 36.90 ± 4.57 nm, 0.194 ± 0.01 and -32.6 ± 0.35 mV, respectively, and the uniform size and distribution of Tax-MLs were observed by transmission electron microscopy. The formation of Tax-MLs was proved by differential scanning calorimetry and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. In terms of physicochemical properties, the solubility of Tax-MLs in water increased by 92.02 times compared with Tax, and its oil-water partition coefficient in water increased from 0.43 to 1.14, which proved that Tax-MLs could improve its solubility and permeability. The in vivo pharmacodynamic results showed that compared with the Tax group, Tax-MLs low, medium and high dose groups showed a significant reduction in liver indices and serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (P < 0.05), and enhanced the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH), and lowered the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) more significantly in the hepatic tissues. Tax-MLs effectively improved drug solubility and permeability, and enhanced the protective effect against alcoholic liver injury. Animal experiments were conducted with approval from the Animal Ethics Committee of Changchun University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (approval number: 2023601).

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effectiveness and feasibility of two osteotomy guides in medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO). METHODS: Clinical data of 103 patients who underwent routine MOWHTO surgery between January 2020 and December 2022 were collected for retrospective analysis. The patients were divided into two groups based on the method of osteotomy guide plate. The control group of 51 patients received traditional osteotomy guide plate technique, including 17 males and 34 females, aged from 48 to 68 years old with an average of(57.93±4.82) years old, with a disease duration ranged from 1 to 8 years with an average of (4.89±1.49) years. The observation group of 52 patients received personalized osteotomy guide plate technique, including 23 males and 29 females, aged from 48 to 69 with an average of (58.22±5.10) years, with a disease duration ranged from 1 to 9 years with an average of(5.10±1.55) years. The perioperative indicators, complications, and knee joint recovery rate were statistically analyzed for both groups, as well as the preoperative and postoperative coagulation function, fibrinogen (FIB), D-dimer (D-D), gait parameters (step frequency, step length, step speed), biomechanical indicators, weight bearing line (WBL), medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), joint line conergence angle (JLCA), and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) function (body width, tibial anterior displacement). RESULTS: All patients were followed up for 6 months. The intraoperative blood loss, operation time, and number of fluoroscopic views in the observation group were (358.58±93.76) ml, (84.42±8.17) min, and (2.00±0.44) times, respectively, which were all less than those in the control group (465.55±105.38) ml, (96.53±10.51) min, and (6.31±0.58) times (P<0.05). Three days after surgery, the FIB and D-D levels in the observation group were (4.21±0.48) g·L^-1 and (204.47±35.59) μg·L^-1, respectively, which were both lower than those in the control group (5.56±0.57) g·L^-1 and (311.12±42.23) μg·L^-1 (P<0.05). Three months after surgery, the step frequency, step length, and step speed in the observation group were (1.89±0.23) steps·s^-1, (0.57±0.15) m, and (0.99±0.11) m·s^-1, respectively, which were all higher than those in the control group (1.80±0.18) steps·s^-1, (0.50±0.14) m, and (0.95±0.09) m·s^-1 (P<0.05). Three months after surgery, the WBL and MPTA in the observation group were (45.53±4.41)% and (87.03±8.15)°, respectively, which were both higher than those in the control group (38.38±4.36)% and (83.68±8.50)°, and the JLCA was (2.36±0.24)°, which was lower than that in the control group (2.61±0.33)° (P<0.05). The ACL body width during internal fixation removal was (5.60±0.51) mm, which was greater than that in the control group (5.08±0.56) mm, and the tibial migration was (5.70±0.42) mm, which was less than that in the control group (6.33±0.48) mm (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups (P>0.05). Six months after surgery, there was no significant difference in the recovery rate of knee joint between the two groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSION The application of personalized osteotomy guide technique in MOWHTO can help improve knee biomechanics and ACL function, and has less effect on coagulation function and no increase in complications.
