Objective:To evaluate the reliability and clinical application of a self-established classification system for the lower 1/3 humeral fractures in adults.Methods:A retrospective study was performed to analyze the 88 patients with lower 1/3 humeral fracture who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedics, The Second Hospital of Fuzhou between January 2013 and December 2020. There were 61 males and 27 females with an age of (34.6±12.7) years. The lower 1/3 humeral fractures were classified according to the location of the fracture line, displacement, and bone mass into 3 types: type Ⅰ: transverse and short oblique ones; type Ⅱ: oblique and spiral ones; type Ⅲ: oblique and spiral ones with butterfly-shaped bone mass. After a junior orthopedic surgeon, an intermediate orthopedic surgeon, a senior orthopedic surgeon, and a radiologist had learned this novel classification system, they were asked to classify the lower 1/3 humeral fractures in this cohort independently to assess the reliability of the classification system. Our treatments were based on this novel classification. Open reduction and internal fixation with a unilateral plate through a lateral approach was performed for type Ⅰ fractures, internal fixation with a unilateral plate plus compression screws through a lateral approach for type Ⅱ fractures, and double plate internal fixation through the ulnar and anterolateral approaches for type Ⅲ fractures. The functions of the radial, ulnar, and musculocutaneous nerves and fracture healing time were observed postoperatively. The shoulder and elbow functions were evaluated using Neer shoulder function score and Mayo elbow function score.Results:Of the 88 patients in this cohort, 20 were type Ⅰ, 25 type Ⅱ, and 43 type Ⅲ. The mean Kappa value for inter-observer reliability was 0.878 at the first stage and 0.914 at the second stage, and the mean Kappa value for intra-observer reliability was 0.950. All patients were followed up for (14.1±3.7) months. Iatrogenic injury to the radial nerve was observed in 2 patients, but no injury to the ulnar nerve, the musculocutaneous nerve or important blood vessels or failure of internal fixation was reported. All patients achieved bony union after (12.7±2.0) weeks. The maximum elbow flexion was 137.8°±4.8°, and the maximum elbow extension 2.4°±1.6°. The Mayo elbow function score was (92.0±3.1) points and the Neer shoulder function score (92.2±3.2) points.Conclusions:Our classification system for the lower 1/3 humeral fractures in adults is reliable. As the treatments corresponding to the novel classification system can achieve satisfactory clinical outcomes, the classification system has a clinical value.

Objective To deeply analyze the problems of public hospitals in medical service satisfaction,construct a more applicable and explanatory service satisfaction evaluation model,and provide reference for the improvement path of patients'medical service satisfaction.Methods Based on the ESCI model,this paper puts forward a research hypothesis,compiles the"Medical Service Satisfaction Evaluation Scale of Public Hospitals in S City",selects S public hospitals as the research object,and evaluates medical service satisfaction from the perspective of patients.Results At present,the main problems affecting the improvement of patients'satisfaction with medical service management in public hospitals in S city are as follows:it is urgent to improve the diagnosis and treatment technology in terms of hardware quality and optimize the environmental hygiene of public hos-pitals,and it is an urgent task to shorten the waiting time for medical treatment in software quality.The score of medical service satisfaction evaluation of S public hospitals was 3.76,and the satisfaction of patients in S public hospitals with their medical serv-ices was at a moderately low level.Conclusion In view of the above problems,it is recommended to strengthen the construction of key specialties,strengthen the construction of talent team,optimize the medical process,open digital linkage services,and strengthen service management,so as to promote the improvement of patients'satisfaction with medical services.

Objective To establish the reference intervals for test indicators of thyroid function,namely thyroid stimulating hormone(TSH),free thyroxine(FT4),and free triiodothyronine(FT3),in the children aged 0 to 15 years old in Nanning,China.Methods A total of 1 289 healthy children aged 0 to 15 years old who attended the Guangxi International Zhuang Medicine Hospital Affiliated with Guangxi University of Chinese Medicine from October 2018 to August 2023 were selected.The concentrations in serum TSH,FT4,and FT3 were measured by chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay(CMIA).According to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)EP28-A3c guideline,the nonparametric percentile method was used to establish the reference intervals for TSH,FT4,and FT3 in the children aged 0 to 15 years old in Nanning area.Results The established reference intervals were as follows:TSH(male):0 to＜1 month:0.88-7.81 μIU/mL,1 month to 15 years:0.59-5.06 μIU/mL;TSH(female):0 to＜1 month:0.93-8.42μIU/mL,1 month to 15 years:0.60-4.30 μIU/mL.FT4(male):0 to＜1 month:0.99-1.92 pg/mL,1 month to 15 years:0.86-1.33 pg/mL;FT4(female):0 to＜1 month:1.05-2.06 pg/mL,1 month to 15 years:0.85-1.37 pg/mL;FT3:0 to＜1 month:2.16-4.24 pmol/L,1 month to＜11 years:2.75-4.49 pmol/L,11 to 15 years:2.45-4.34 pmol/L.Significant differences were observed among different gender and age groups for TSH,FT4,and FT3 levels(P＜0.05).Conclusion This study successfully established the refer-ence intervals of TSH,FT4,and FT3 in the children aged 0 to 15 years old in Nanning area,which were significantly different among various gender and age groups.

Objective:To establish a modified controlled abciximab and device investigation to lower late angioplasty complication (CADILLAC) score, and to compare the predictive value of modified CADILLAC score, the global registry of acute coronary event (GRACE) score and the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) score in predicting the risk of short-term death after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted. The clinical data of 169 STEMI patients under going PCI admitted to the department of cardiology of Guizhou Provincial People's Hospital from September 2019 to December 2020 through emergency chest pain fast track were enrolled. A multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the factors closely related to the mortality risk within 30 days of STEMI, and a modified CADILLAC scoring system was established by referring to CADILLAC scoring settings. The score of modified CADILLAC, GRACE and TIMI scores of patients were calculated after admission, and the number of deaths due to cardiovascular disease (CVD) within 30 days after onset was recorded. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) was used to evaluate the predictive value of three scoring systems on the risk of death within 30 days after PCI in patients with STEMI.Results:In 169 STEMI patients, 16 patients died of CVD within 30 days after PCI, and the actual case mortality was 9.47%. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age > 75 years old, cardiac function Killip ≥ Grade Ⅲ, ventricular arrhythmia, ST segment elevation ≥ 0.2 mV, cardiac troponin I (cTnI) increase, systolic blood pressure (SBP) < 90 mmHg (1 mmHg ≈ 0.133 kPa) were all independent predictors of death after PCI in STEMI patients. The improved CADILLAC scoring system was constructed based on the above predictive factors combined with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) less than 0.40. The GRACE, TIMI and modified CADILLAC scores of dead patients were significantly higher than those of survival patients (GRACE score: 197.60±31.83 vs. 149.81±36.72, TIMI score: 11.21±2.13 vs. 7.27±1.97, modified CADILLAC score: 12.60±2.52 vs. 6.96±2.17, all P < 0.05). The higher the risk stratification of the three scores, the higher the mortality of patients with CVD within 30 days after PCI [the mortality of patients with low, medium and high risk in GRACE score were 2.41% (2/83), 9.61% (5/52) and 26.47% (9/34); the mortality of patients with low, medium and high risk in TIMI score were 3.12% (3/96), 12.82% (5/39) and 23.53% (8/34); and the mortality of patients with low, medium and high risk in modified CADILLAC score were 3.19% (3/94), 7.69% (4/52) and 39.13% (9/23), respectively, all P < 0.01]. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the GRACE, TIMI and the modified CADILLAC scores predicting the risk of death 30 days after PCI in STEMI patients were 0.855 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.702-0.923], 0.725 (95% CI was 0.666-0.812) and 0.882 (95% CI was 0.732-0.936), respectively, all P = 0.000; the sensitivity of its prediction accuracy were 81.59%, 78.65% and 89.26%, and the specificity were 78.62%, 57.12% and 75.54%, respectively. Conclusions:The GRACE and the modified CADILLAC scores have predictive value for the short-term mortality risk of STEMI patients after PCI, and the modified CADILLAC score is more accurate. But the TIMI score has a poor predictive effect on the short-term mortality risk of STEMI patients after PCI.

Objective To establish a reference intervals(RIs)of serum squamous cell carcinoma antigen(SCC-Ag)in healthy population in Nanning region and provide clinical evidence to support diagnosis and prognosis of squamous cell carcinoma.Methods A total of 10 197 reference individuals who joined a routine physical examina-tion in the Health Management Center of Guangxi International Zhuang Medical Hospital from March 2019 to De-cember 2021 were collected.The level of serum SCC-Ag was detected by chemiluminescence microparticle immuno-assay.The Mann-Whitney U test was applied to compare the differences in serum SCC level between genders or ad-jacent age groups.The unilateral 95th percentile determined the upper limit of the RIs by the nonparametric method.Another 1 035 healthy subjects with the same conditions as the reference population were selected for refer-ence validation.Results The serum SCC-Ag level showed a skewed distribution(Z＝0.08,P＜0.05).The ser-um SCC-Ag level of males was considerably higher than that of females.There was significant difference in serum SCC-Ag level between males aged 18－30 and 31－40,51－60 and 61－90(P＜0.05).There was significant difference in serum SCC-Ag level between females aged 18－30 and 31－40,31－40 and 41－50,51－60 and 61－ 90(P＜0.05).The reference intervals of serum SCC-Ag was as follows:0－1.64 ng/mL for males and females aged 18－30 years;0－1.57 ng/mL and 0－1.70 ng/mL for males aged 31－60 years and 61－90 years,respec-tively;0－1.50 ng/mL,0－1.52 ng/mL and 0－1.42 ng/mL for females aged 31－40 years,41－60 years and 61－90 years,respectively.Conclusions The RIs of serum SCC-Ag in healthy population in the Nanning region are successfully established according to different genders and ages.

Objective:To explore the prognostic value of lymphocyte subsets in adult hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS).Methods:A total of 172 adult HPS patients diagnosed in 8 medical centers from January 2013 to August 2020 were selected for the study, of whom 87 were male (50.6%, 87/172), and 85 were female (49.4%, 85/172), with 68 survivors and 104 deaths. The clinical data were summarized, and variables such as lymphocyte subsets, immunoglobulin characteristics and fibrinogen were retrospectively analyzed, and the correlation between the mentioned variables and patient prognosis was analyzed. The optimal cut-off values of continuous variables were calculated by MaxStat, and the prognostic factors of HPS patients were screened based on the Cox proportional hazard regression model.Results:The median age of HPS patients was 56 (42, 66) years old, and the 5-year cumulative survival rate was 37.4% (37.4/100). The median age, platelet and albumin were 48 (27, 63) years, 84×10 9/L and 32.3 g/L in the survival group, and 59 years, 45.5×10 9/L, and 27.3 g/L in the death group, respectively. The differences between the two groups was statistically significant ( Z=?3.368, P=0.001; Z=?3.156, P=0.002; Z=?3.431, P=0.001). Patients with differentiated cluster 8+(CD8+)<11.1%, CD3+<64.9%, CD4+>51%, and CD4/CD8 ratio>2.18 had poor prognosis (χ 2=7.498, P=0.023; χ 2=4.169, P=0.041; χ 2=4.316, P=0.038; χ 2=9.372, P=0.002). Multivariable analysis showed that CD4/CD8 ratio, age, fibrinogen and hemoglobin were independent prognostic factors in HPS patients ( HR=2.435, P=0.027; HR=5.790, P<0.001; HR=0.432, P=0.018; HR=0.427, P=0.018). Conclusion:Peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets can be used to evaluate the prognosis of patients with HPS; CD4/CD8 ratio, age, fibrinogen, and hemoglobin are independent prognostic factors in HPS patients.

Development of thoracolumbar vertebra (TLV) and rib primordium (RP) is a common evolutionary feature across vertebrates, although whole-organism analysis of the expression dynamics of TLV- and RP-related genes has been lacking. Here, we investigated the single-cell transcriptome landscape of thoracic vertebra (TV), lumbar vertebra (LV), and RP cells from a pig embryo at 27 days post-fertilization (dpf) and identified six cell types with distinct gene expression signatures. In-depth dissection of the gene expression dynamics and RNA velocity revealed a coupled process of osteogenesis and angiogenesis during TLV and RP development. Further analysis of cell type-specific and strand-specific expression uncovered the extremely high level of HOXA10 3'-UTR sequence specific to osteoblasts of LV cells, which may function as anti-HOXA10-antisense by counteracting the HOXA10-antisense effect to determine TLV transition. Thus, this work provides a valuable resource for understanding embryonic osteogenesis and angiogenesis underlying vertebrate TLV and RP development at the cell type-specific resolution, which serves as a comprehensive view on the transcriptional profile of animal embryo development.

Objective:To explore the prognostic influencing factors of adult lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic syndrome (LAHS) based on multicenter data.Methods:The clinical data of 86 LAHS patients diagnosed in 9 medical centers of Huaihai Lymphoma Working Group from January 2015 to August 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The optimal cut-off value of continuous variables was obtained based on MaxStat algorithm. Cox proportional hazard regression model was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis, and log-rank test was performed.Results:Among the 86 adult LAHS patients, 50 (58.1%) were males and 36 (41.9%) were females, the median age of the patients was 57 years old (19-76 years old), and the median overall survival (OS) time was 1.67 months (95% CI 0.09- 3.24 months). The most common pathologic type was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (58 cases, 67.44%). Based on MaxStat algorithm, the optimal cut-off values of age, albumin, serum creatinine, lactate dehydrogenase, fibrinogen and platelet count were 64 years old, 30.1 g/L, 67 μmol/L, 1 045 U/L, 4.58 g/L and 72×10 9/L, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that patient's age, lactate dehydrogenase, albumin and fibrinogen levels were independent influencing factors for OS (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:LAHS is dangerous and progresses quickly. Patients with age ≥ 64 years old, lactate dehydrogenase ≥ 1 045 U/L, fibrinogen ≥ 4.58 g/L and albumin < 30.1 g/L have poor survival.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of penile dorsal extension and bandaging after concealed penis surgery.Methods:In this study, 80 children who underwent concealed penile correction were randomly divided into a dorsal extension bandaging group (experimental group) and a traditional bandaging group (control group) from Xuzhou Children’s Hospital Affiliated to Xuzhou Medical University during September 2016 to September 2019. The control group was applied with traditional sleeve-type bandaging, and the test group was treated with penile dorsal extension bandaging. A total of 75 children was summarized in this study. Among them, there were 38 children in the experimental group, with a mean age of 64 months. Thirty-seven children were in the control group, with a mean age of 70 months. The incidence of complications during hospitalization, the number of calls to medical staff within the first 24 hours after surgery, the pain score of the child during dressing removal, and the time taken for dressing removal were compared and recorded. Measurement data were analyzed by t-tests and enumeration data were analyzed by chi-square tests between groups. All data were analyzed using software SPSS 17.0. Results:The incidence of complications during hospitalization was 5.26%(2/38) and 10.81%(4/37) in the experimental and control groups, respectively. This difference was not statistically significant( χ2=0.784, P>0.05). In the dorsal extension bandaging group and the traditional bandaging group, the average number of calls to medical staff 24 hours after surgery was (0.87 ± 0.91) and (1.54 ± 1.02) times, the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.996, P=0.003); as for the highest pain scores of the children when the dressing was removed were 5.21 ± 1.19 and 7.24 ± 1.20, the difference was statistically significant ( t=5.697, P< 0.001); the time taken to remove the dressing was (3.21 ± 1.24) min, (7.56 ± 1.88) min, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=11.917, P<0.001). Conclusions:The penile dorsal extension bandaging method after concealed penis surgery can reduce the number of calls to medical staff, reduce the time of dressing removal and the degree of pain in children.

Objective:To study the clinical effect of Microbotox in improving mandibular fat accumulation, lifting mandibular contour and achieving lower face and neck rejuvenation.Methods:From May 2020 to January 2021, patients with mandibular fat accumulation and skin relaxation of mandible and neck were treated in Plastic Surgery Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. Multiple microdroplets of botulinum toxin type A was injected into the dermis or the interface between the dermis and the superficial muscle layer in lower face and neck. Botulinum toxin was diluted to 20 U/ml and injected with 0.6 U per point. The scope of Microbotox was demarcated by the line between earlobe-mouth corner as the upper border, the depressor anguli oris as the anterior border, the front edge of sternocleidomastoid muscle front edge as the posterior border, and the jugular notch as the inferior border. Treatment effect was evaluated postoperatively by the subjective satisfaction of patients and the accessment of a third-party physicians.Results:A total of 25 patients were included, including 10 males and 15 females, with the age of 39.4±3.7 years. The patient subjective satisfaction was 96%(24/25), and 96%(24/25) of patients received improved result , evaluated by a third-party physician. There were no serious complications except one case of local congestion and four cases of local pain and swelling, which could be relieved in a short time.Conclusions:Characterized by improving mandibular fat accumulation, lifting mandibular contour, reducing cervicomental angle, improving skin texture and neck wrinkles, Microbotox is effective and practical.
