Objectives:To investigate the clinical efficacy of occipitocervical fusion with the occipital screw-rod-multiaxial screw internal fixation system in treating"sandwich"deformity with atlantoaxial disloca tion.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 62 patients who underwent posterior reduction,bone graft fusion,and occipitocervical internal fixation for"sandwich"deformity with atlantoaxial dislocation from January 2017 to January 2023.There were 19 males and 43 females,aged 51.1±23.5 years(29-72 years).The patients were divided into two groups based on the different fixation methods of the occipital screws used in the two types of occipitocervical internal fixation systems:group A of 38 patients utilized the occipital screw-rod-multiaxial screw system,consisting of 12 males and 26 females,aged 50.9±24.8 years(29-72 years),and the imaging findings revealed brainstem or cervical spinal cord compression in 30 cases,syringomyelia in 6 cases,and Chiari malformation in 2 cases;And group B of 24 cases utilized the occipital plate-rod-multiaxial screw system,consisting of 7 males and 17 females,aged 51.4±22.4 years(32-69 years),and the imaging findings revealed brainstem or cervical spinal cord compression in 16 cases,syringomyelia in 6 cases,and Chiari malformation in 2 cases.Group A was followed up for 36.5±11.8 months and Group B was followed up for 36.1±9.8 months.No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of age,sex,imaging findings,or surgery style(P＞0.05).A comparison was performed between the groups regarding intraoperative blood loss,operative time,follow-up period,and complication rates.Clini-cal outcomes were evaluated preoperatively and at the final follow-up using the neck pain visual analog scale(VAS)score,neck disability index(NDI),and Japanese Orthopaedic Association(JOA)score.The cross-sectional and sagittal bone fusion area of the graft site,atlantodental interval(ADI),space available for cord(SAC),clivus canal angle(CCA),and cervico-medullary angle(CMA)were measured preoperatively,1 week postoperatively,and at the final follow-up in both groups.Results:Group A and group B weren't significantly different in intraoperative blood loss(362.4±89.1mL vs 345.1±93.8mL,P＞0.05)and operative time(144.8±35.6min vs 143.7±36.2min,P＞0.05).In group B,rod fractures occurred in 2 cases and loss of reduction was observed in 3 cases,whereas the remaining patients maintained stable screw-rod fixation.Neither group experienced severe complications such as spinal cord injury or cerebrospinal fluid leakage.Both groups demonstrated statistically significant differences between preoperative NDI,VAS,JOA scores and those measured at the final follow-up(P＜0.05),while no statistically significant differences existed between the two groups at the same time points(P＞0.05).Statistically significant differences were observed between preoperative and postoperative(1-week and final follow-up)measurements for ADI,SAC,CCA and CMA in both groups(P＜0.05),while no significant in-tergroup differences were found at corresponding time points(P＞0.05).In group A,the cross-sectional area and the sagittal area of the graft site were 385.44±84.51mm2 and 290.28±1 10.41mm2 in postoperative 1 week,and 267.06±66.13mm2 and 204.54±83.85mm2 at the final follow-up;which in group B were 442.61±76.85mm2 and 267.21±104.63mm2 in postoperative 1 week,and 172.43±37.37mm2 and 124.87±48.10mm2 at final follow-up.Comparisons between groups revealed no statistically significant differences in either cross-sectional or sagittal graft areas at 1 week postoperatively(P＞0.05),however,significant differences were observed at the final fol-low-up(P＜0.05)for both parameters between the two groups.Conclusions:The occipital screw-rod-multiaxial screw internal fixation system presents comparable restoration effects to the occipital plate-rod-multiaxial screw system in treating"sandwich"deformity with atlantoaxial dislocation.It exhibits satisfactory implant fusion postoperatively and achieves reliable occipitocervical fixation.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of deep learning reconstruction (DLR) algorithm combined with a dual-low protocol (low radiation dose and low contrast medium dose) for thoracoabdominal aortic CT angiography (CTA).Methods:This cross-sectional study prospectively enrolled 56 patients suspected of aortic diseases who underwent aortic CTA at China-Japan Friendship Hospital from June 2023 to June 2024. All patients were randomly divided into two groups: Group A (28 cases) underwent CTA with a tube voltage of 100 kVp, automatic tube current modulation (noise index=10), and a contrast agent dose of 80 ml (flow rate 5 ml/s), with images reconstructed using the three-dimensional adaptive iterative dose reduction algorithm (AIDR). Group B (28 cases) underwent CTA with a tube voltage of 80 kVp, automatic tube current modulation (noise index=25), and a contrast agent dose of 40 ml (flow rate 3.5 ml/s), with images reconstructed using either the deep learning reconstruction algorithm-Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE subgroup) or the AIDR (AIDR subgroup). Two physicians evaluated the image quality of the three groups subjectively and objectively. Objective evaluation metrics included CT values, image noise (SD), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) at the ascending aorta, carina-level descending aorta, celiac trunk-origin abdominal aorta, and common iliac bifurcation abdominal aorta carina. Subjective evaluation metrics included image quality and noise scores. Comparisons among the three datasets (Group A, AiCE subgroup, AIDR subgroup) were performed using one-way ANOVA or the Kruskal-Wallis test, with appropriate post-hoc tests for pairwise comparisons.Results:No significant differences were observed in CT values of the ascending aorta, descending aorta, and abdominal aorta between Group A and the AiCE subgroup or the AIDR subgroup ( P0.05). However, significant overall differences were found in SD, SNR, and CNR values for the ascending aorta, descending aorta, and abdominal aorta ( P0.05). Pairwise comparisons revealed that, except for no significant differences in SD, SNR, and CNR values of the ascending and descending aorta between Group A and the AiCE subgroup, and no significant difference in SNR values of the ascending and abdominal aorta between Group A and the AIDR subgroup ( P0.05), all other intergroup comparisons showed statistically significant differences ( P0.05). Significant overall differences were also observed in image quality and noise scores between Group A and the AiCE and AIDR subgroups ( P0.05). Except for no significant differences in image quality and noise scores between Group A and the AiCE subgroup ( P0.05), all other pairwise comparisons showed statistically significant differences ( P0.05). Conclusions:The application of deep learning reconstruction algorithm combined with a dual-low protocol in thoracoabdominal aortic CTA can reduce radiation dose and contrast agent dose while maintaining diagnostic image quality, demonstrating significant clinical value for widespread adoption.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of follicular lymphoma (FL) patients with different primary sites using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database.Methods:Clinical data of 7167 patients with early-stage FL (stage I-II) from the SEER database between 2000 and 2015 were respectively analyzed. Primary sites were divided into intranodal and extranodal types. Intranodal primary sites included supradiaphragmatic lymph nodes (LN), subphrenic lymph nodes and Waldeyer's ring. Extranodal primary sites consisted of skin, gastrointestinal tract, duodenum, head and neck, other sites. Prognostic factors and overall survival (OS) in patients with different primary sites were analyzed. OS rate was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier method and survival difference between primary sites was compared with log-rank test. Inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) and multi-variable analysis were applied to adjust for confounding factors. Multivariate Cox regression analysis of influencing factors of OS was performed.Results:The median age was 63 years old, with the median follow-up time of 63 months. There was no difference in prognosis among the intranodal groups or between the intranodal and extranodal groups. The 10-year OS rates of the supradiaphragmatic lymph LN ( n=2146), subdiaphragmatic LN ( n=2811), and the Waldeyer's ring ( n=151) groups were 70.7%, 69.9% and 73.4%, respectively ( P=0.422 for infradiaphragmatic LN vs. supradiaphragmatic LN, P=1.000 for Waldeyer's ring vs. supradiaphragmatic LN), and 70.3% and 68.9% for intranodal ( n=5108) and extranodal ( n=2059), respectively. There was no significant difference in OS between the groups ( P=0.581) after IPTW adjustment. The most common primary sites in extranodal disease were skin, gastrointestinal tract, head and neck, and duodenum. The 10-year OS for skin, gastrointestinal tract, and cutaneous was 74.2%, 74.7%, and 87.3%, respectively, significantly higher than 55.6% for other sites (duodenum vs. others sites, gastrointestinal vs. others sites, skin vs. others sites: all P<0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that difference in OS was not significant among the intranodal groups or between the intranodal and extranodal groups. However, different extranodal primary site was an independent prognostic factor for OS. Conclusions:Early FL patients with supradiaphragmatic LN, subdiaphragmatic LN and Waldeyer's ring, and between the intranodal and extranodal primary sites obtain similar prognosis. However, early-stage FL patients with different extranodal primary sites have prognostic differences. The prognosis of primary skin, gastrointestinal tract and duodenum is significantly better than that of other extranodal primary sites.

Objective:To study the spatial distribution and characteristics of iodine content in residential drinking water in Shaanxi Province, and provide a basis for scientific prevention and control of iodine deficiency disorders.Methods:From March to October 2022, an investigation was conducted in all counties (districts, referred to as counties) of Shaanxi Province, with administrative villages as survey units. For centralized water supply systems, two terminal water samples were collected, and iodine content was measured separately, with the average value representing the drinking water iodine content at that location. For decentralized water supply systems, a 10% sampling method was used to divide each administrative village into five areas (east, south, west, north, and center), with 10% of water wells sampled from each area (if fewer than 10 water wells, the well with the largest drinking population was selected; if fewer than 5 wells, all wells were sampled). One water sample was collected from each water well, and iodine content was determined using the arsenic-cerium catalytic spectrophotometry method. Spatial autocorrelation and spatial scan analysis were used to analyze the spatial distribution and characteristics of drinking water iodine content.Results:A total of 53 990 drinking water samples were collected, with a median water iodine content of 6.66 μg/L, ranging from 0.10 to 779.40 μg/L. Drinking water iodine content was detected in 112 counties, showing a significant spatial positive correlation (global autocorrelation, Moran's I = 0.74, Z = 43.83, P < 0.001). Local autocorrelation analysis showed that the difference in the distribution of iodine content in drinking water among 36 counties was statistically significant ( P < 0.05), with 22 counties showing low-low clustering and 12 counties showing high-high clustering. Spatial scanning identified three water iodine clustering areas, including two high-water iodine cluster areas and one low-water iodine cluster area. Conclusions:The distribution of iodine content in residential drinking water in Shaanxi Province shows significant spatial clustering and heterogeneity, requiring targeted interventions to achieve precise prevention and control of iodine deficiency disorders.

Objective To investigate iodine content in drinking water and clarify the distribution characteristics of iodine in water in Shaanxi Province.Methods A cross-sectional survey method was used to collect water samples from administrative villages in the province.Two tap water samples were taken from the centralized water supply villages,and 10％samples were taken from the decentralized water supply villages.Water iodine was detected by arsenic cerium catalytic spectrophotometry.Water iodine areas were divided according to national standards:＜40 μg/L was iodine deficiency area,40-100 μg/L was iodine adequate area,＞100 μg/L was high iodine area.According to the ecological regionification scheme of the Chinese Academy of Sciences,Shaanxi Province was divided into three types:the central and eastern Inner Mongolia Platea-Loess Plateau ecological region,the Fenwei Basin ecological region,and the Qinba Mountains ecological region.SPSS 25.0 was used for statistical analysis.Results The median of water iodine in Shaanxi Province was 6.66 μg/L.The survey of water iodine content was conducted in 22 848 administrative villages,1 309 townships,112 counties and 14 municipalities in the whole province.The median water iodine was less than 40 μg/L in 91.75％(20 963/22 848)of the administrative villages,between 40 and 100 μg/L in 7.40％(1 691/22 848)of the administrative villages,and more than 100 μg/L in 0.85％(194/22 848)of the administrative villages.The median of water iodine in the central and eastern Inner Mongolia Platea-Lose Plateau ecological zone,the Fenwei Basin ecological zone,and Qinba Mountains ecological zone was 12.35,8.88,and 2.00 μg/L,respectively,and the differences among different ecological zones were statistically significant(H=6 616.23,P＜0.001).The median of water iodine of centralized and decentralized water supply was 6.72 and 6.21 μg/L,respectively,and differences between different water supply methods were statistically significant(Z=5.638,P＜0.01).Conclusion The overall external environment of Shaanxi Province is iodine deficient,and most of the administrative villages are iodine deficient areas.There are a certain proportion of high iodine water source areas and suitable iodine areas.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of follicular lymphoma (FL) patients with different primary sites using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database.Methods:Clinical data of 7167 patients with early-stage FL (stage I-II) from the SEER database between 2000 and 2015 were respectively analyzed. Primary sites were divided into intranodal and extranodal types. Intranodal primary sites included supradiaphragmatic lymph nodes (LN), subphrenic lymph nodes and Waldeyer's ring. Extranodal primary sites consisted of skin, gastrointestinal tract, duodenum, head and neck, other sites. Prognostic factors and overall survival (OS) in patients with different primary sites were analyzed. OS rate was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier method and survival difference between primary sites was compared with log-rank test. Inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) and multi-variable analysis were applied to adjust for confounding factors. Multivariate Cox regression analysis of influencing factors of OS was performed.Results:The median age was 63 years old, with the median follow-up time of 63 months. There was no difference in prognosis among the intranodal groups or between the intranodal and extranodal groups. The 10-year OS rates of the supradiaphragmatic lymph LN ( n=2146), subdiaphragmatic LN ( n=2811), and the Waldeyer's ring ( n=151) groups were 70.7%, 69.9% and 73.4%, respectively ( P=0.422 for infradiaphragmatic LN vs. supradiaphragmatic LN, P=1.000 for Waldeyer's ring vs. supradiaphragmatic LN), and 70.3% and 68.9% for intranodal ( n=5108) and extranodal ( n=2059), respectively. There was no significant difference in OS between the groups ( P=0.581) after IPTW adjustment. The most common primary sites in extranodal disease were skin, gastrointestinal tract, head and neck, and duodenum. The 10-year OS for skin, gastrointestinal tract, and cutaneous was 74.2%, 74.7%, and 87.3%, respectively, significantly higher than 55.6% for other sites (duodenum vs. others sites, gastrointestinal vs. others sites, skin vs. others sites: all P<0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that difference in OS was not significant among the intranodal groups or between the intranodal and extranodal groups. However, different extranodal primary site was an independent prognostic factor for OS. Conclusions:Early FL patients with supradiaphragmatic LN, subdiaphragmatic LN and Waldeyer's ring, and between the intranodal and extranodal primary sites obtain similar prognosis. However, early-stage FL patients with different extranodal primary sites have prognostic differences. The prognosis of primary skin, gastrointestinal tract and duodenum is significantly better than that of other extranodal primary sites.
