Objective:The clinical data of prenatal stillbirth were analyzed in order to increase the understand-ing of the causes of stillbirth.Methods:Prenatal stillbirth cases that terminated pregnancy in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital,Affiliated Hospital of Medical School,Nanjing University from January 2018 to December 2022 were col-lected,and the distribution characteristics of clinical data and the stillbirth causes were analyzed.The causes of death were classified according to the standards developed by the Stillbirth Collaborative Research Network(SCRN)in the United States,and they were divided into clear cause-of-death group and unknown cause-of-death group.The different characteristics of the two groups were compared and analyzed.Results:There were 210 ca-ses of prenatal stillbirth during the study period,and 104 cases met the inclusion criteria.Among them,33 cases(31.7%)had autopsy results,39 cases(37.5%)had genetic results,and 75 cases(72.1%)had placental pathol-ogy.According to the classification of SCRN standard,55 cases(52.9%)were probably related to the cause of death,33 cases(31.7%)were classified as possible,13 cases(12.5%)were probably unrelated,and 3 cases(2.9%)could not be attributed to the cause of death,that is,84.6%(88 cases)in the clear cause of death group and 15.4%(16 cases)in the unknown cause of death group.The rate of placental pathological examination in the clear cause of death group was significantly higher than that in the unknown cause of death group(78.4%).In the classification of causes of death,placental pathological changes accounted for the largest proportion,account-ing for 26.9%(28 cases),followed by pregnancy complications accounting for 25.0%(26 cases),and 15.4%of the cases were still unexplained.Conclusions:Placental pathology is of great significance for clarifying the cause of stillbirth.It is feasible to use SCRN to classify the etiology of stillbirth.Pathological placental conditions account for a relatively high proportion in the classification of stillbirth causes.It is recommended that each case of stillbirth placenta should undergo pathological examination.

Objective To investigate the changes of brain networks function in patients with primary dysmenorrhea(PDM)during menstruation based on topological attributes of brain network.Methods Brain resting-state functional MRI of 57 PDM patients(PDM group)and 50 healthy women(health control[HC]group)were prospectively collected within the first or the second day of menstruation.Clinical scores were obtained and compared between groups.Results Visual analogue scale,cox menstrual symptom scale,self-rating anxiety scale and self-rating depression scale scores in PDM group were all higher than those in HC group(all P＜0.05).At the sparsity of 0.04-0.50,brain networks in both groups conformed to the small world attribute characteristics,and no significant difference of global attributes of brain network was found between groups(all P＞0.05).The node efficiency(Ne)and node degree(Dc)of bilateral posterior cingulate gyrus(PCG),as well as De and node betweenness(Bc)of left middle frontal gyrus(MFG)in PDM group were all higher than those in HC group,while Ne and De of left inferior temporal gyrus in PDM group were lower than those in HC group(all P＜0.01).Compared with HC group,the functional connections between left PCG and right calcarine fissure and surrounding cortex,right lingual gyrus and left MFG,as well as between right PCG and right dorsolateral superior frontal gyrus and left MFG,between right insula and left middle occipital gyrus enhanced in PDM group(all P＜0.001).Conclusion In PDM patients,local brain networks function such as default mode network,central executive network and salience network were over-activated during menstruation,yet the overall brain network still had good coordination and organization.

Objective:The purpose of this study is to test and assess the model of modeling data of TaiChi accelerator in the Raystation Treatment Planning System(RayStation system)according to the test method and item of TG119 report of American Association Physicians Medicine(AAPM).Methods:The intensity-modulated radiation therapy(IMRT)and volumetric-modulated arc therapy(VMAT)plans of the test cases of different clinical situations,which included the simulated multi target region,prostate target region,head and neck target region,easy type C-shape target region plan and difficult type C-shape target region plan,were designed according to the AAPM TG119 report in the treatment planning system.The deviations of the doses of point and area of the two kinds of plans were measured,and the measured results were compared and analyzed with the recommended standards of AAPM TG119 report.The IBA CC13 ionization chamber and the ArcCHECK matrix ionization chamber were used respectively to verify the point dose and area dose,and the assessment standard was γ passing rate under 3%3mm.The confidence interval was adopted to judge the consistency between the measured dose and the calculated dose.Results:The accuracies of plan dose target,point dose deviation and area dose distribution of tested cases could meet the requirement of the TGl19 report.The deviations of mean doses for the high-dose points of IMRT plan and VMAT plan of tested cases were respectively(0.39±1.02)%and(1.27±0.64)%,and the confidence intervals of them were respectively 2.39%and 2.52%.The average dose deviations of low doses of organ at risk(OAR)of IMRT plan and VMAT plan were respectively(0.53±1.73)%and(0.88±1.11)%,and the confidence intervals were respectively 3.92%and 3.06%.The average γ passing rate under 3%/3mm of IMRT plan and VMAT plan were respectively(99.52±0.366)%and(99.86±0.136)%,and the confidence intervals of them were respectively 1.196%and 0.406%.Conclusion:The TaiChi accelerator performance and the accuracy of Raystation system 6MV FFF model fitting can meet the standard of TG119 report,and the subsequent standards of the quality control of equipment and patients were established according to these tested results,which would provide reference for the improvement of the performance of subsequent accelerator.

Objective:To analyze the effect of sacroiliac joint reduction on the treatment of Tile type C pelvic fractures in children.Methods:A retrospective study was performed to analyze the 28 children [17 males and 11 females with an age of (10.2±3.1) years] with Tile type C pelvic fracture who had been admitted to Department of Orthopaedics, Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from March 2017 to January 2022. The children were divided into a group of 16 cases subjected to non-reduction of the sacroiliac joint (NRSJ) and a group of 12 cases subjected to reduction of the sacroiliac joint (RSJ). The 2 groups were compared in terms of preoperative general data, surgical time, intraoperative bleeding, pelvic diagonal line before and 1 week after surgery, and Cole score for pelvic fracture efficacy at the last follow-up.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in the preoperative general data or in the preoperative pelvic diagonal between the 2 groups, indicating comparability ( P>0.05). The surgical time in group NRSJ [(77.0±12.9) min] was significantly shorter than that in group RSJ [(104.7±24.3) min], the intraoperative bleeding in group NRSJ [(32.8±7.6) mL] significantly less than that in group RSJ [(65.7±13.4) mL], and the pelvic diagonal line [(27.7±5.3) mm] in group NRSJ significantly longer than that in group RSJ [(4.0±1.2) mm] ( P<0.05). The follow-up time was (18.9±3.0) months for group NRSJ and (17.0±2.2) months for group RSJ, showing no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05). The Cole scoring at the last follow-up yielded 2 excellent, 3 good, 5 fair, and 6 poor cases in group NRSJ, significantly worse than those in group RSJ (9 excellent, 2 good, 1 fair, and 0 poor cases) ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Surgical reduction of the sacroiliac joint in children with Tile C pelvic fracture is very important. Compared with non-reduction of the sacroiliac joint, the surgical reduction incurs longer surgical time and more intraoperative bleeding, but leads to higher quality of pelvic reduction, which can further correct the deformity of the pelvic ring and improve the Cole score for pelvic fracture efficacy.
