ObjectiveThis paper aims to explore the in vitro anti-psoriasis activity and potential mechanism of Kangfuxin liquid （KFX liquid）， providing experimental evidence for the anti-psoriasis effect of KFX liquid. MethodsFirstly， the uninduced human immortalized keratinocyte cells （HaCaT cells） were divided into seven groups， namely the control group and KFX liquid groups with different doses （5， 10， 20， 40， 80， 160 g·L^-1）. After being treated with different concentrations of KFX liquid， the effect of KFX liquid on the normal cell proliferation was detected by using the cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） method. Secondly， the uninduced HaCaT cells were divided into six groups， namely the control group and recombinant human interleukin-7A （rh-IL-7A） groups with different doses （5， 10， 50， 100， 120 g·L^-1）. After being treated with different concentrations of recombinant human interleukin-17A （rh IL-17A） liquid， the effect of rh IL-17A on cell proliferation was detected. The optimal induction concentration was screened. Then， normal HaCaT cells were divided into a control group and KFX liquid groups with different doses （5， 10， 20， 40， 80， 160 g·L^-1）. Except for the control group， the other groups established psoriasis cell models with the optimal induction concentration of rh IL-17A. After being treated with different concentrations of KFX liquid， the effects of KFX liquid on the psoriasis-like HaCaT cell proliferation were investigated. Finally， the uninduced HaCaT cells were divided into six groups， namely the control group， rh IL-17A group， methotrexate （MTX） group， and KFX liquid groups with different doses （20， 40， 80 g·L^-1）. Except for the control group， the other groups used the optimal induction concentration of rh IL-17A to establish psoriasis cell models. After being treated with different drugs， the cell migration levels were detected through scratch assays， and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to detect the relative mRNA expression levels of Ki-67 antigen （Ki67）， S100 calcium-binding protein A7 （S100A7）， S100 calcium-binding protein A8 （S100A8）， and S100 calcium-binding protein A9 （S100A9）， thereby comprehensively evaluating the in vitro anti-psoriasis activity of KFX liquid. By detecting the relative mRNA expression levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and chemokine-20 （CXCL-20） inflammatory-related factors in psoriasis-like HaCaT cells and the protein expression levels of Janus kinase 3 （JAK3）， phosphorylated Janus kinase 3 （p-JAK3）， signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3）， and phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （p-STAT3）， the mechanism was explored. ResultsCompared with that of control group， when treated with 80 g·L^-1 KFX liquid for 72 h （P<0.05） and at different times with 160 g·L^-1 KFX liquid， the HaCaT cell proliferation activity was significantly affected （P<0.01）， while the other concentrations of KFX liquid had no significant differences in cell morphology and cell proliferation activity at different times， indicating that the KFX liquid is relatively safe for HaCaT cells and has no obvious toxic side effects. Compared with that of control group， when treated with different concentrations of rh IL-17A for 24 h， the HaCaT cell proliferation activity was significantly enhanced， and the cell activity was the strongest when the concentration was 100 μg·L^-1 （P<0.05）， with a density close to 100% and intact cell morphology， indicating that 100 μg·L^-1 is the optimal concentration for inducing HaCaT cell proliferation. The results of the KFX liquid treatment on rh IL-17A-induced psoriasis-like cells show that the KFX liquid not only effectively inhibits the rh IL-17A-induced psoriasis-like HaCaT cell proliferation activity （P<0.01）， but also significantly reduces the migration ability of rh IL-17A-induced psoriasis-like HaCaT cells （P<0.01）， and the relative mRNA expression levels of Ki67， S100A7， S100A8， and S100A9 （P<0.01）. Moreover， the KFX liquid can significantly reduce the relative mRNA expression levels of IL-1β， IL-6， and CXCL-20 in rh IL-17A-induced psoriasis-like cells （P<0.01）， and significantly inhibit the phosphorylation levels of JAK3 and STAT3 proteins （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionThe KFX liquid has no obvious toxicity to uninduced HaCaT cells. It can inhibit rh IL-17A-induced psoriasis-like HaCaT cell proliferation， reduce the cell migration ability， and has good in vitro anti-psoriasis activity. Its action mechanism may be related to downregulating the expression levels of inflammation-related cytokines in the JAK3/STAT3 signaling pathway and inhibiting the phosphorylation levels of JAK3 and STAT3 proteins.

Objective:To identify the core symptoms of prostate cancer patients with endocrine therapy by constructed the symptom network, and provide a basis for precise intervention of symptoms management.Methods:In a cross-sectional study, we conveniently sampled patients receiving endocrine therapy for prostate cancer at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center between March and August 2018. The Expanded Prostate cancer Index Composite 26-item version (EPIC-26) and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) were used to assess symptoms.Symptom networks were constructed, and network indexes and the accuracy and stability of core symptoms were computed based on various packages of R4.3.1. Subgroup network comparison tests were conducted by Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level, stratifying patients into PSA>0.2 ng/ml and PSA≤0.2 ng/ml groups.Results:A total of 270 questionnaires were distributed, and 261 valid questionnaires were returned, yielding a valid response rate of 96.7%. The included patients were aged 43 - 87(67.81 ± 8.14) years. Symptom network analysis revealed that the core symptom in patients undergoing endocrine therapy for prostate cancer was endocrine disorder ( rs = 1.86, rc = 0.048). However, in the population with PSA ≤ 0.2 ng/ml, depression ( rs = 1.80, rc = 0.028) occupied a more central position. There was no statistically significant difference in the network structure among patients with different PSA levels ( M = 0.294, P = 0.100). But the difference in network strength was statistically significant ( S = 1.15, P<0.05). The strongest associations were observed between depression and anxiety, as well as between endocrine disorder anddepression.The network demonstrated good stability and accuracy,indicating a reliable network model. Conclusions:Endocrine disorder is the core symptom in patients undergoing endocrine therapy for prostate cancer, serving as a critical target for intervention. Special attention should be given to the interconnected effects between endocrine disorder and depression. For the population with PSA ≤ 0.2 ng/ml, negative emotions such as depression still require ongoing focus. In the future, comprehensive interventions centered on psychological support and endocrine symptom management should be implemented for prostate cancer patients receiving endocrine therapy.

BACKGROUND:Percutaneous kyphoplasty was a common surgical procedure for the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture.However,there was no research to confirm whether percutaneous kyphoplasty could effectively correct the local kyphoplasty of the spine in patients over 80 years old with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of percutaneous kyphoplasty on local kyphosis in super-aging patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture.METHODS:Single-segment osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture patients treated with percutaneous kyphoplasty at the Department of Spinal Surgery,Peking University People's Hospital,from March 2016 to August 2022,were selected as the research cohort,and the follow-up data of patients in hospital and out-patient were collected.According to patients'age,patients were divided into the advanced age group(60-79 years old,n=126)and the super-aged group(＞80 years old,n=52).According to gender,body mass index,basic diseases(hypertension,diabetes,and cardiovascular diseases),fracture segments and the presence or absence of preoperative intravertebral cleft,the two groups of patients were matched 1:2 by propensity score matching.The lumbar CT values,injection amount of bone cement,preoperative and postoperative vertebral height,preoperative collapse rate of the vertebral body,preoperative and postoperative Cobb angle,recovery rate of Cobb angle,distance between the bone cement and anterior edge of the vertebral body,sagittal position of cement filling,contact between the bone cement and endplate,distance between the bone cement and vertebral endplates,bone cement distribution score,bone cement leakage,and vertebral refracture were compared between the two groups.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)After matching the propensity score,115 patients were included,with 71 patients in the advanced age group and 44 patients in the super-aged group.There was no statistically significant difference in baseline data,including gender,body mass index,hypertension ratio,diabetes ratio,cardiovascular disease ratio,fracture section,and preoperative intravertebral cleft,between the two groups(P＞0.05).The postoperative Cobb angle of the super-aged patients was significantly smaller than that of the elderly patients(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in lumbar CT values,injection amount of bone cement,preoperative and postoperative vertebral height,preoperative collapse rate of the vertebral body,preoperative Cobb angle,recovery rate of Cobb angle,postoperative distance between the bone cement and anterior edge of the vertebral body,sagittal position of cement filling,contact between the bone cement and endplate,distance between the bone cement and vertebral endplates,bone cement distribution score,bone cement leakage,and vertebral refracture ratio between the two groups(P＞0.05).(2)These findings indicate that percutaneous kyphoplasty can effectively correct local kyphosis of the spine in super-aging patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.

Background::Spinal injuries are an urgent public health priority; nevertheless, no China-wide studies of these injuries exist. This study measured the incidence, prevalence, causes, regional distribution, and annual trends of spinal injuries in China from 1990 to 2019.Methods::We used data from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2019 to estimate the incidence and prevalence of spinal injuries in China. The data of 33 provincial-level administrative regions (excluding Taiwan, China) provided by the National Center for Chronic and Noncommunicable Disease Control and Prevention, Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) were use to systematically analyze the provincial etiology, geographical distribution, and annual trends of spinal injuries. The Bayesian meta-regression tool DisMod-MR 2.1 was used to ensure the consistency among incidence, prevalence, and mortality rates in each case.Results::From 1990 to 2019, the number of living patients with spinal injuries in China increased by 138.32%, from 2.14 million to 5.10 million, while the corresponding age-standardized prevalence increased from 0.20% (95% uncertainty interval [UI]: 0.18-0.21%) to 0.27% (95% UI: 0.26-0.29%). The incidence of spinal injuries in China increased by 89.91% (95% UI: 72.39-107.66%), and the prevalence increased by 98.20% (95% UI: 89.56-106.82%), both the most significant increases among the G20 countries; 71.00% of the increase could be explained by age-specific prevalence. In 2019, the incidence was 16.47 (95% UI: 12.08-22.00, per 100,000 population), and the prevalence was 358.30 (95% UI: 333.96-386.62, per 100,000 population). Based on the data of 33 provincial-level administrative regions provided by CDC, age-standardized incidence and prevalence were both highest in developed provinces in Eastern China. The primary causes were falls and road injuries; however, the prevalence and specific causes differed across provinces.Conclusions::In China, the overall disease burden of spinal injuries increased significantly during the past three decades but varied considerably according to geographical location. The primary causes were falls and road injuries; however, the prevalence and specific causes differed across provinces.

Objective:To evaluate the risk of bias and applicability of the risk prediction models for pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).Methods:The relevant studies were systematically searched from Chinese database (Chinese medical journals database, CNKI, Wanfang, Weipu, Sinomed) and English databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CINAHL Database) and the retrieval time limit was from the establishment of the database to December 31, 2023. Based on the risk of bias assessment tool of the predictive model study, the risk of bias and applicability of the model were evaluated, and the predictors with high repetition rate in the model were meta-analyzed by RevMan 5.4 software.Results:A total of 23 studies involving 30 models were included. The incidence of pancreatic fistula was 11.4%-41.7%. nineteen studies reported the discrimination index of model construction and/or validation, and the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.62-0.94. The other four studies reported the consistency index (c-index). The predictive performance of the 23 studies is good, but there is a high risk of bias. The main reasons are that the sample size is not saturated, the research object from the appropriate source is not selected, the continuous variables are not properly processed, and the predictive factors are screened by single factor analysis. Eight studies were rated as " high risk" for applicability due to inconsistencies between the included study subjects and outcome measures and the systematic review study questions. The meta-analysis results showed that the dilation of main pancreatic duct (>3 mm) ( OR=0.70, 95% CI: 0.65-0.76), soft pancreas texture ( OR=5.18, 95% CI: 3.90-6.88), and body mass index ≥25 kg/m 2 ( OR=1.12, 95% CI: 1.07-1.17) were effective predictors of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). Conclusion:The existing predictive models for pancreatic fistula risk in patients undergoing PD both domestically and internationally have good predictive performance, but there is a certain risk of bias and some models have poor applicability. Predictors such as dilation of main pancreatic duct, soft pancreas texture, and body mass index≥25 kg/m 2 should be more emphasized in future predictive models.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of retrograde distal tibial intramedullary nail fixation in the treatment of proximal ankle fracture of the distal tibia.Methods:A three-dimensional CT examination of 40 adult tibias was performed to measure anatomical indicators such as the posterior medial posterior torsion angle of the distal tibia, the height of torsion, and the height of the safety zone for nail placement. Based on the anatomy database of the human skeleton model, a retrograde distal tibial nail and its supporting instruments were developed in accordance with the anatomical characteristics of the distal tibia and the proximal ankle of Chinese people. From June 2019 to June 2023, a total of 25 patients with distal tibial proximal ankle fractures treated with retrograde intramedullary nail internal fixation in the 909th Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. There were 18 males and 7 females, aged 41.3±10.8 years (range, 22-65 years). The sample size was 1∶1 matched according to gender and age. Twenty-five patients with distal tibial proximal ankle fractures who underwent antegrade intramedullary nail fixation during the same period were matched, including 20 males and 5 females, aged 41.2±9.4 years (range 19-60 years). The reduction quality, postoperative Baird-Jackson score, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle and hindfoot score, ankle range of motion and complications were observed.Results:All patients were successfully operated and followed up for 14.4±3.5 months (range, 12-24 months). The intraoperative blood loss and hospitalization time in retrograde intramedullary nail group were 33.12±7.38 ml and 10.32±1.75 d, less than 49.04±10.22 ml and 13.16±2.69 d in antegrade intramedullary nail group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The reduction quality was excellent in 23 cases and good in 2 cases in the retrograde intramedullary nail group, and was excellent in 17 cases and good in 8 cases in the anterograde intramedullary nail group. The proportion of excellent reduction quality in the retrograde intramedullary nail group was higher than that in the anterograde intramedullary nail group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=4.500, P=0.034). The Baird-Jackson score and AOFAS ankle and hindfoot score in the retrograde intramedullary nail group were 85.6±2.5 and 85.8±3.3 at 3 months after operation, lower than those at 1 year after operation 95.3±3.1 and 95.8±3.6, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The Baird-Jackson score and AOFAS ankle and hindfoot score of the antegrade intramedullary nail group were 85.1±3.3 and 86.1±2.5 at 3 months after operation, lower than 95.2±2.7 and 94.9±3.5 at 1 year after operation, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in Baird-Jackson score and AOFAS ankle and hindfoot score between the two groups at 3 months and 1 year after operation ( P>0.05). At the last follow-up, there was no ankle stiffness, neurovascular injury, deep vein thrombosis, infection or breakage of internal fixation in the two groups. Conclusion:The treatment of distal tibial proximal ankle fractures with retrograde intramedullary nail fixation has satisfactory reduction quality, good postoperative function recovery, and is helpful for early postoperative rehabilitation.
