Objective To investigate the application of artificial intelligence-based follow-up plan for patients after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods The follow-up plan of artificial intelligence after PCI was constructed through literature review and expert correspondence consultation.A total of 82 patients with coronary heart disease who underwent PCI in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from October 2022 to November 2023 were selected and divided into intervention group and control group according to random number table method,with 41 cases in each group.The control group was given routine nursing program,and the intervention group was added artificial intelligence-based follow-up program on the basis of control group.The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular event(MACE)within 6 months,30 days readmission rate,medication compliance and satisfaction score were compared between two groups.Results The incidence of MACE within 6 months and 30 days readmission rate in intervention group were significantly lower than those in control group(P＜0.05).After 6 months of intervention,Morisky scale score and satisfaction score of patients in two groups were significantly higher than before intervention(P＜0.05),and Morisky scale score and satisfaction score of patients in intervention group were significantly higher than those in control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Follow-up program based on artificial intelligence technology can reduce the incidence of MACE and 30 days readmission rate of patients after PCI.

Objective:To study the urinary iodine levels of children in Jiangxi Province and provide a basis for prevention and treatment of iodine deficiency disorders and scientific iodine supplementation.Methods:From March to July in 2022, a systematic sampling method was used in 99 counties (cities, districts, abbreviated as counties) in Jiangxi Province. One township (street) was selected from each county in five directions: east, west, south, north and middle. One primary school was selected from each township (street), and 40 non boarding children aged 8 - 10 (half male and half female) were selected from each primary school. One random urine sample was collected to test urinary iodine, and the distribution of urinary iodine in different regions, genders, and ages were compared.Results:A total of 19 842 urine samples were collected from children, with a median urinary iodine level of 181.90 μg/L. The median urinary iodine levels of children in different cities ( H = 1 014.05, P < 0.001), genders ( Z = 6.44, P < 0.001) and ages groups ( H = 29.82, P < 0.001) were compared, and the differences were statistically significant. Conclusion:The urinary iodine level of children in Jiangxi Province is at an appropriate level, but the distribution of urinary iodine is uneven among different regions, genders, and ages, indicating that scientific and precise iodine supplementation is necessary for the prevention and treatment of iodine deficiency disorders.

Objective:To understand the status and tendency of coal-burning-borne endemic fluorosis after implementation of prevention and control measures in Jiangxi Province.Methods:According to the requirements of the national "Coal-burning-borne Endemic Fluorosis Monitoring Program", 3 fixed monitoring villages and 5 non-fixed monitoring villages in Luxi, Shangli were selected as monitoring sites every year from 2014 to 2018, respectively, 10 households were selected by simple random method in each village to survey the usage of stove and health behavior related to the consumption of pepper. At the same time, dental fluorosis and urinary fluoride were monitored in children aged 8 - 12 years in fixed monitoring villages.Results:There were significant differences in the utilization rate of improved stoves, the utilization rate of electric cookers and the qualified rate of improved stoves in fixed monitoring villages between each year (χ 2 = 111.70, 83.96, 36.64, P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference in the correct utilization rate of qualified improved stoves(χ 2 = 2.35, P > 0.05). There were significant differences in the utilization rate of improved stoves, the utilization rate of electric cookers, the qualified rate of improved stoves and the correct utilization rate of qualified improved stoves in non-fixed monitoring villages between each year (χ 2 = 132.32, 42.63, 50.03, 15.29, P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in pepper correct drying rates between fixed monitoring villages and non-fixed monitoring villages between each year (χ 2 = 4.068, 3.436, P > 0.05), the rate of pepper correct keeping and washing methods was 100% in monitored villages each year. From 2014 to 2018, the detection rate of dental fluorosis in children aged 8 - 12 years decreased from 17.04% (106/622) to 6.68% (90/1 347), and showed a downward trend year by year (χ 2trend = 72.60, P < 0.01). The annual geometric mean of urinary fluoride of children was 0.77, 0.74, 0.71, 0.74 and 0.72 mg/L, respectively. There was no significant difference among years ( H = 4.142, P > 0.05). Conclusion:Remarkable achievements have been made in the prevention and control of coal-burning-borne endemic fluorosis in Jiangxi Province.

Objective To study the clinical significance of globus pallidus signal intensity and the intensity ratio of globus pallidus and putamen (G/P ratio) on magnetic resonance T1WI for the early recognition of neonatal bilirubin encephalopathy.Method From January to December 2017,full-term neonates with hyperbilirubinemia admitted to the neonatology department of our hospital were enrolled in the case group,and full-term neonates without hyperbilirubinemia in the control group.The clinical data,globus pallidus T1WI signal intensity,G/P ratio and the follow-up data were collected.According to the level of hyperbilirubinemia,the neonates in the case group were further assigned into mild hyperbilirubinemia group (serum bilirubin:222 to ＜256 μmol/L),moderate hyperbilirubinemia group (serum bilirubin:256 to ＜342 μmol/L),and severe hyperbilirubinemia group (serum bilirubin:≥ 342 μmol/L).According to the injury score of ABE,the neonates with ABE were assigned into mild ABE group,moderate ABE group and severe ABE group.The correlation of globus pallidus T1WI and T2WI signal values,G/P ratio and the serum bilirubin level and ABE degree were analyzed;receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to explore the predictive value of the T1WI signal value and G/P ratio for the diagnosis of ABE;the changes of globus pallidus T1WI and T2WI signal values during the first 6 months after birth and the results of follow-up to 1 year after discharge were also analyzed.Result A total of 175 neonates were included in the case group (65 in the mild hyperbilirubinemia group,71 in the moderate hyperbilirubinemia group and 39 in the severe hyperbilirubinemia group) and 43 neonates in the control group.39 neonates were diagnosed as ABE (21 mild ABE,12 moderate ABE,and 6 severe ABE).The first T1WI signal value and G/P ratio of neonates in the severe hyperbilirubinemia group was higher than the moderate hyperbilirubinemia group,the mild hyperbilirubinemia group and the control group;the T1WI signal value and G/P ratio in the moderate hyperbilirubinemia group was higher than the mild hyperbilirubinemia group and the control group (P ＜ 0.05).No significant difference existed between the mild group and the control group(P ＞ 0.05).T2WI values showed no differences among neonates with different bilirubin levels (P ＞ 0.05).The first T1WI signal value and G/P ratio in the severe ABE group were significantly higher than the moderate and mild ABE group,and the moderate ABE group higher than the mild ABE group (P ＜ 0.05).The ROC curve indicated the optimal cut-off value of T1WI signal and G/P ratio were 628 and 1.38,respectively.Among all the 175 neonates,9 had a decrease in T1WI signal value and an increase in T2WI signal value at 6 months after birth.After 1 year of follow-up visits,7 children were finally diagnosed as chronic bilirubin encephalopathy.All these children had increased signal intensity on T1WI in the acute phase,plus a decreased T1WI signal and an increased T2WI signal in 1 ～ 6 months after birth.Conclusion The globus pallidus T1WI signal and G/P ratio are closely related to the serum bilirubin level and ABE severity.If T1WI signal value ＞ 628 or G/P value ＞ 1.38,ABE should be considered.The T1WI signal value and G/P ratio play important roles as indicators for the early recognition of neonatal bilirubin encephalopathy.

Objective: To analyze the effectiveness of percutaneous injection of autologous concentrated bone marrow aspirate (cBMA) combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the treatment of delayed fracture healing. Methods: A prospective, randomized, controlled, single-blind case study was conducted. Between March 2016 and July 2018, 66 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria for delayed fracture healing but had solid internal fixation of the fracture end were randomly divided into control group (31 cases, treated with percutaneous autogenous bone marrow blood injection) and study group (35 cases, treated with percutaneous autogenous cBMA+PRP injection). General data such as gender, age, body mass index, site of delayed fracture healing, length of bone defect at fracture end, and preoperative radiographic union score for tibia (RUST) showed no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). Before injection, Kirschner wire was used in both groups to stimulate the fracture end and cause minor injury. The fracture healing time, treatment cost, and adverse reactions were recorded and compared between the two groups. Visual analogue scale (VAS) score was used to evaluate pain improvement. The tibial RUST score was extended to the tubular bone healing evaluation. Results: No infection of bone marrow puncture needle eyes occurred in both groups. In the control group, local swelling was obvious in 5 cases and pain was aggravated at 1 day after operation in 11 cases. In the study group, postoperative swelling and pain were not obvious, but 2 cases presented local swelling and pain. All of them relieved after symptomatic treatment. Patients in both groups were followed up, the follow-up time of the control group was 16-36 months (mean, 21.8 months), and the study group lasted 14-33 months (mean, 23.2 months). The amount of bone marrow blood was significantly lower in the study group than in the control group ( t=4.610, P=0.000). The degree of postoperative pain in the study group was less than that in the control group, and the treatment cost was higher than that in the control group. But the differences between the two groups in VAS score at 1 day after operation and treatment cost were not significant ( P>0.05). Fracture healing was achieved in 19 cases (61.3%) in the control group and 30 cases (85.7%) in the study group. The difference in fracture healing rate between the two groups was significant ( χ2=5.128, P=0.024). Fracture healing time and RUST score at last follow-up were significantly better in the study group than in the control group ( P<0.05). At last follow-up, RUST scores in both groups were significantly improved when compared with those before operation ( P<0.05). Conclusion: Autogenous cBMA combined with PRP percutaneous injection can provide high concentration of BMSCs and growth factors, and can improve the fracture healing rate and shorten the fracture healing time better than autogenous bone marrow blood injection.

Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of the treatment under the guidance of "diamond concept" for femoral shaft fractures nonunion after intramedullary fixation. Methods: Between January 2014 and December 2016, 21 cases of femoral shaft fractures nonunion after intramedullary fixation were treated with auxiliary plate fixation combined with autogenous iliac graft, and autologous bone marrow concentrate and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) gel under the guidance of the "diamond concept". There were 13 males and 8 females, with an average age of 32.5 years (range, 17-48 years). All fractures were closed femoral shaft fractures. Four patients underwent internal fixation with plate and resulted in nonunion, then they were fixed with intramedullary nails, but did not heal either. The rest 17 patients were fixed with intramedullary nailing. Fracture nonunion classification: 4 cases of hypertrophic nonunion, 17 cases of atrophic nonunion; the length of bone defect was 1-3 mm; the duration from the last treatment to the current treatment was 10-23 months (mean, 14.3 months). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, the time between operation and full loading, fracture healing time, and complications were recorded. The visual analogue scale (VAS) score and the imaging system of fracture healing of the extremities (RUST) of patients before operation and at last follow-up were recorded to evaluate the fracture healing; the function of the affected limb was evaluated according to the Schatzker-Lambert efficacy score standard at last follow-up. Results: The operation time was 105-160 minutes, with an average of 125.6 minutes; the intraoperative blood loss was 160-580 mL, with an average of 370.5 mL. All incisions healed by first intention, without vascular or nerve injury. All patients were followed up 22-46 months (mean, 26.5 months). All the fractures healed, with a fracture healing time of 3-7 months (mean, 4.8 months). During the follow-up, there was no infection, loosening, implant breakage, re-fracture, and other complications. The VAS score at last follow-up was 0.8±0.3, showing significant difference ( t=7.235, P=0.000) when compared with preoperative score (5.2±3.7); the RUST score was 3.4±0.3, which was significantly higher than the preoperative score (1.5±0.7) ( t=8.336, P=0.000). According to the Schatzker-Lambert effectiveness evaluation standard, the limb function was excellent in 16 cases, good in 4 cases, fair in 1 case, and the excellent and good rate was 95.42%. Conclusion: Nonunion after intramedullary fixation of femoral fracture treated with auxiliary plate combined with autogenous iliac graft, autogenous bone marrow concentration and PRP gel in accordance with the "diamond concept" can not only restore the stability of the fracture ends, but also improves the biological environment of the fracture site, and can improve the rate of fracture healing.

Objective To discuss the angiographic manifestations of hemorrhage after pancreaticoduo-denectomy (PD), and to evaluate the clinical curative effect of interventional therapy. Methods The angiographic findings and the therapeutic effect of interventional therapy for hemorrhage after PD in 19 PD patients, who were admitted to Fujian Provincial Hospital, China, during the period from January 2014 to February 2018 to receive DSA examination and interventional therapy, were retrospectively analyzed. Results Among the 19 PD patients, DSA examination showed that extravasation of contrast medium, pseudoaneurysm formation and irregular arterial lumen were observed in 16 patients, the rate of positive signs was 84.2％ (16/19) . All the 16 patients, who had positive DSA findings, received covered-stent implantation or embolization therapy for the responsible artery, except one patient who had hemorrhage from the branch of superior mesenteric artery and the super-selective catheterization for him failed. The technical success rate was 93.8％ (15/16) . Successful hemostasis was achieved in 13 patients (86.7％, 13/15) . Two patients developed recurrent bleeding and were transferred to surgical treatment. Two patients received twice angiography, the resultsshowed that pseudoaneurysm formation of gastroduodenal artery was detected in one patient, which was treated with embolization therapy, and in another patient angiography was normal and this patient was transferred to surgical treatment. Conclusion For postoperative hemorrhage of PD, DSA has diagnostic value, while interventional therapy has therapeutic value. The techniques are minimally-invasive and highlyeffective. Therefore, it is worthy of clinical popularization and application.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical application effects of an iliac-crest-preserving iliac wing bone graft harvesting technique and the bone regenerative ability of the donor site after harvesting. Methods: From January 2016 to June 2017, a series of 39 patients including 28 men and 11 women aged between 16 and 59 y (35±13 y in average) were prospectively collected to treat bone defects using the iliac-crest-preserving iliac wing bone graft harvesting technique. The patient cohort included 38 ipsilateral and 1 bilateral bone harvests taken from 15 femoral fracture non-unions, 8 tibial fracture non-unions, 11 femoral head necroses (hip preserving surgery), 1 tuberculosis deriving hip arthritis with bone defect (total hip arthroplasty), 2 hip prosthesis loosenings (revision), and 2 proximal femoral benign tumors. All patients were treated through comprehensive surgeries containing autologous iliac bone grafting. The surgical time, blood loss, bone graft volume, 24 h post-operative visual analogue scale (VSA) at the iliac surgical site, complications, and bone regeneration of the donor site were documented and evaluated. Results: In the 39 patients (40 sides), the average surgical time was 25±4 min, average blood loss was 79±23 ml, average bone graft volume was 27±6 cm³. The average 24 h post-operative VAS at the iliac surgical site was 1.8±0.7 points. The VSA at the 6 week later and thereafter were 0 in all patients. The iliac incisions in 38 patients (39 sides) were healed uneventfully. However, seroma at the iliac surgical site emerged in 1 patient at the 6th post-operative day in the manner of serous exudation and was treated successfully with non-operative measures. None infections and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injuries took place. Iatrogenic non-displaced iliac crest fractures happened in the very first 2 patients when taking the crest as a pivot to pry up the graft, which united without special cure at the 3 month post-operative. This complication was completely avoided when shifting the pivot to the anterior pillar containing the anterior iliac spines. None pelvic fractures and heterotopic ossifications took place. Post-operative radiographical examinations revealed that the bone defects at the donor site shrank through bone regeneration, that mamillary or canine-tooth-shaped bone formation occurred in some of the cases, and that none complete bone regeneration took place to eliminate the bone defect at the donor. There were 12 patients in whom pre- and post-operative computed tomographic scans necessitated by the disease were prescribed, which facilitated the measuring of the bone defect at the donor site. The measurement of 13 sides revealed that the bone defects were decreased more or less: the average immediate post-operative bone defect was 25.7±6.5 cm², the average 12 month post-operative bone defect was 12.7±5.3 cm². Conclusion The iliac wing bone graft harvesting technique suggested here is safe and less invasive, in the premise of preserving the iliac crest and retaining the figure of the surgical site, it can harvest a large amount of iliac wing bone graft and reserve the bone regenerative ability of the donor site

Objective: There is no effective therapy for patients with advanced medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). Vandetanib,a novel multitargeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has previously shown antitumor activity in phase Ⅱ studies of patients with advanced MTC. This study was to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of vandetanib on advanced MTC. Methods: This study was an open, international multi-center phase Ⅲ clinical trial and the study number was NCT01298323. The single-center study was a sub-group analysis of the international study, which was conducted on 9 pathologically confirmed advanced MTC patients by Cancer Hospital Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences between March 2012 and October 2017. Vandetanib (300 mg) was orally administered daily till death or withdrawal. The efficacy was evaluated according to RECIST criteria and the adverse events were evaluated according to NCI criteria. Results: The objective response rate was 3/9,and the disease control rate was 4/9. The median progression-free survival was 44 months. All patients who had the elevated levels of calcitonin (CTN) and carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA) before treatment began to show the decreases in the level of CTN and CEA after 3 months and later showed again the increases in the levels of both tumor markers with tumor progression. By ROC curve analysis, CTN was of statistically significance(P<0.05, 95%CI 0.558-0.834), but CEA was not(P>0.05). Adverse events were generally mild (grade 1 or 2),including hypertension (9 cases),skin rash (9 cases), and diarrhea (6 cases). Two patients developed grade 3 elevation of serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase and one patient developed grade 3 elevation of drug-related bowel disease. No grade 4 drug-related adverse event occurred. Conclusions Vandetanib is effective and well tolerated for patients with locally advanced or metastatic MTC who have no chance for surgery. This indicates the increase of CTN is clinically relevant to disease progression, but the number of patients are extremely low, and, therefore further research is needed. Long-term use of vandetanib may cause resistance.

Objective TNF-α monoclonal antibody drugs are widely used to treat conditions such as rheumatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. On the other hand, it is also a wide concern that the application of these drugs may increase the susceptibility of patients to infections such as tuberculosis and listeriosis. The aim of this study was to establish a mouse model of Listeria monocytogenes infection and to evaluate the effect of TNF-α monoclonal antibody on the host susceptibility to this infection. Methods Six SPF 14-week old female C57BL/6 mice and 12 SPF 14-week old female TNF-α humanized mice were injected with saline or adalimumab intravenously, and challenged with intraperitoneal injection of 104 CFU Listeria monocytogenes 24 h later. After one day or 4 days, the mice were sacrificed to examine the pathological lesions and the bacterial load in the spleen and liver. Results Four days after infection, the area of microabscess in the liver tissues was significantly increased in the adalimumab-treated group. The bacterial load in the spleen and liver tissues of the adalimumab-treated group was significantly higher than that of the C57BL/6 mouse control group and TNF-α humanized mouse control group (P ＜ 0. 05). However, the distribution of macrophages in the liver tissues and B cells in the spleen tissues were similar among groups. Conclusions TNF-α plays an important role in the host immune responses to Listeria monocytogenes infection. After the intervention with TNF-α monoclonal antibody, the progress of host disease is significantly exacerbated.
