【Objective】 To report a case of testicular infarction due to polyarteritis nodosa (PAN), and to discuss its clinical diagnosis and treatment based on relevant literatures at home and abroad, so as to have a better understanding of this rare disease. 【Methods】 Clinical data of a case complaining of scrotal pain who was initially diagnosed as testicular torsion and later confirmed to be testicular infarction due to PAN were retrospectively analyzed, and relevant literatures were reviewed. 【Results】 With glucocorticoid, vasodilator and antioxidant treatment, the patient’s testicular blood flow was improved. 【Conclusion】 Testicular infarction due to PAN is a rare disease which is difficult to diagnose timely. The diagnosis depends on biopsy and the standards formulated by American College of Rheumatology (ACR). Good prognosis can be achieved with timely diagnosis and correct treatment.

Objective:To observe the difference in the effect of simple titanium plate internal fixation and titanium plate internal fixation combined with titanium nail intermaxillary traction in the treatment of jaw fractures and their impact on the oral and maxillofacial function of patients.Methods:From August 2016 to May 2021, 94 patients with jaw fractures admitted to the Department of Stomatology, Linyi Central Hospital, Shandong (supplementing the gender, age range and average age of the patients), were divided into 47 cases in the control group, and the titanium plates were used alone, combined operation group 47 cases, titanium plate internal fixation combined with intermaxillary traction with titanium nails. The changes of oral and maxillofacial function and fracture healing were measured before operation and 3 months after operation, and the perioperative indicators and postoperative complications were recorded.Results:Three months after operation, the scores of maxillofacial function, mouth function and masticatory function in the combined operation group (0.52±0.09 points, 0.67±0.12 points, 0.58±0.08 points) were significantly lower than those in the control group (1.05±0.21 points, 1.14±0.22 points, 1.02±0.21 points) ( t=15.90, 12.86, 13.42, P<0.05). The effective rate of the combined operation group was 95.74% (45/47), which was significantly higher than that of the control group (80.85%, 38/47) (χ 2=5.05, P<0.05); there was no significant difference in operation time and hospitalization time between the groups ( P>0.05), the fracture healing time in the combined surgery group (65.02±7.06) d was significantly shorter than that in the control group (82.69±10.25) d ( t=9.73, P<0.05). The postoperative complication rate of combined treatment group was 6.38% (3/47), which was significantly lower than the control group 21.28% (10/47) (χ 2=4.37, P<0.05). Conclusions:In the treatment of jaw fractures, titanium plate internal fixation combined with titanium nail intermaxillary traction treatment can significantly improve the oral and maxillofacial function of patients, promote postoperative fracture healing, improve curative effect and reduce the incidence of complications compared with simple titanium plate internal fixation.

Infectious bone defect is bone defect with infection or as a result of treatment of bone infection. It requires surgical intervention, and the treatment processes are complex and long, which include bone infection control,bone defect repair and even complex soft tissue reconstructions in some cases. Failure to achieve the goals in any step may lead to the failure of the overall treatment. Therefore, infectious bone defect has been a worldwide challenge in the field of orthopedics. Conventionally, sequestrectomy, bone grafting, bone transport, and systemic/local antibiotic treatment are standard therapies. Radical debridement remains one of the cornerstones for the management of bone infection. However, the scale of debridement and the timing and method of bone defect reconstruction remain controversial. With the clinical application of induced membrane technique, effective infection control and rapid bone reconstruction have been achieved in the management of infectious bone defect. The induced membrane technique has attracted more interests and attention, but the lack of understanding the basic principles of infection control and technical details may hamper the clinical outcomes of induced membrane technique and complications can possibly occur. Therefore, the Chinese Orthopedic Association organized domestic orthopedic experts to formulate An evidence-based clinical guideline for the treatment of infectious bone defect with induced membrane technique ( version 2023) according to the evidence-based method and put forward recommendations on infectious bone defect from the aspects of precise diagnosis, preoperative evaluation, operation procedure, postoperative management and rehabilitation, so as to provide useful references for the treatment of infectious bone defect with induced membrane technique.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of the frozen section assessment of surgical margin in preserving urinary continence and erectile function during robotic radical prostatectomy (RARP).Methods:From Feb. 2022 to Jul 2023, 11 patients underwent RARP using intrafascial dissection technique and frozen section assessment in Beijing United Family Hospital. The median age was 64(61, 69)years, the median PSA was 8.0(6.0, 11.2)ng/ml, and the median IIEF-5 was 17.5(10.3, 22.0). All the patients were diagnosed with prostate cancer and PSMA-PET/CT showed negative for metastasis. The da Vinci Si platform, 4-arm, transabdominal anterior approach was applied in all cases. The prostate specimen was removed from the umbilical incision and submitted to the pathology department for frozen section assessment. If the frozen section assessment showed cancer in the surgical margin, a secondary resection of the ipsilateral periprostatic fascia and neurovascular bundle (NVB) was performed. Totally, 3 cases underwent secondary resection, who underwent unilateral NVB-sparing, and the other 8 cases underwent bilateral NVB-sparing surgery. In follow-up, the PSA, urinary continence and erectile function was assessed and recorded.Results:All the surgeries of 11 cases were successful, without convertion to open surgery. The median operation time was 260(225, 285)minutes, the median blood loss was 200(100, 300)ml, the median hospital stay was 4(3, 5)days. There was no over Clavien Dindo Ⅱ perioperative complications.The median catheter indwelling time was 12(10, 14) days, with 10 cases achieving full continence upon catheter removal. The median follow-up time was 10 months. The median PSA level at 3 months, 6 months and 9 months postoperatively was 0.017(0.006, 0.170)ng/ml, 0.015(0.006, 0.390)ng/ml, and 0.007(0.006, 0.650)ng/ml respectively. The median IIEF-5 at 3 months, 6 months and 9 months postoperatively was 0.017(0.006, 0.170)ng/ml, 0.015(0.006, 0.390)ng/ml, 0.007(0.006, 0.650)ng/ml respectively.The median IIEF-5 at 3 months, 6 months and 9 months post-operation was 5.0(4.5, 11.0), 7.5(4.3, 17.5), and 9.5(6.0, 17.5)respectively.Conclusions:The RARP combined with frozen section assessment of surgical margin has excellent safety profile and can achieve favorable clinical value in tumor control, NVB preserving, urinary continence and erectile function.

Objective:To explore the automatic synthesis method of 18F-AlF-1, 4, 7-triazacyclononane-1, 4, 7-triacetic acid (NOTA)-octreotide and the imaging in neuroendocrine tumor (NET). Methods:Using the Trasis AllinOne synthesis module, 18F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide was automatically synthesized by chelating 18F-AlF and NOTA-octreotide at 100 ℃, and the quality of the product was analyzed. 18F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide and 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging were performed and compared in one patient with NET (male, 35 years old). Results:The total synthesis time of 18F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide was 35 min with a radiochemical yield of (55.8±1.8%)% (non-decay corrected, n=6), radiochemical purity more than 95% and good stability. The sterility and pyrogen-free of the product met the requirements. Compared with 18F-FDG (the lesion SUV max=3.8, target-to-background (T/B) ratio=1.03), 18F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide could be clearly imaged in the patient with NET with SUV max of 21.7 and T/B ratio of 4.09. Conclusions:The preparation of 18F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide with Trasis Allinone synthesis module is simple, rapid and stable. The product has high radiochemical purity and can meet the needs of clinical application. In vivo18F-ALF-NOTA-octreotide PET/CT imaging in the patient with NET shows higher T/B ratio, which has obvious advantages compared with 18F-FDG.

Objective:To construct an Internet + linkage model based on medical alliance and evaluate its implementation effect.Methods:From October 2020 to June 2021, convenience sampling was used to select 132 patients with malignant tumors who were treated with peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) chemotherapy and discharged with catheters in Chongming Branch of Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine. The 67 patients who returned to the PICC outpatient clinic of Chongming Branch, Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine during the treatment interval for PICC maintenance were set as the control group, and the routine maintenance method was adopted. A total of 65 patients who chose maintenance points near their residence for PICC maintenance during the treatment interval were set as the observation group. On the basis of the control group, the maintenance method based on the Internet + linkage mode of medical alliance was adopted. The PICC self-management ability, catheter-carrying satisfaction, PICC complication, average cost and average time spent on PICC maintenance during treatment were compared between the two groups.Results:There were no significant differences in the scores of daily life with catheters, exercise with catheters, catheter abnormality handling, compliance with catheter maintenance and confidence in catheter management between the two groups ( P>0.05) . There was no significant difference in the scores of Catheter Satisfaction Survey in the two groups of patients ( P>0.05) .There was also no significant difference in the incidence of PICC complications between the two groups ( P>0.05) . The registration fee, maintenance fee, and transportation fee for PICC maintenance in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, and the round-trip time and visit time were shorter than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The Internet + linkage model based on the medical alliance can ensure the quality of PICC maintenance for patients with malignant tumors undergoing PICC chemotherapy and discharged with catheters, and improve their PICC self-management ability, which has good economic and time benefits.

OBJECTIVES: At present, removable partial denture is still one of the main restoration methods for dentition defects. However, the trend for digital partial denture is becoming more and more obvious in the field of oral repair. However, there are relatively few studies on digital removable partial denture. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of 3 processing technologies (precision casting, digital cutting, and 3D printing) on the fitness for the clasps of cobalt chromium alloy and pure titanium removable partial denture, and to provide a theoretical basis for the clinical application of digital removable partial denture. METHODS: Clasps of Co-Cr alloy and pure titanium were produced by 3 different processing technologies (precision casting, digital cutting, and 3D printing). There are 6 groups, including a casting pure titanium group, a casting cobalt chromium group, a cutting pure titanium group, a cutting cobalt chromium group, a printing pure titanium group, and a printing cobalt chromium group ( RESULTS: There was no statistical difference in fitness between the casting pure titanium group and the casting cobalt chromium group ( CONCLUSIONS The cobalt chromium alloy and pure titanium clasps made by precision casting, digital cutting, and 3D printing have good fitness. Under the same process, there is no significant difference between cobalt chromium alloy and pure titanium clasps. The 3D printing pure titanium clasps have better fitness than casting pure titanium and cutting pure titanium clasps, which meet the needs of clinical application.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of birth weight discordance in dichorionic diamniotic (DCDA) twins.Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed 1 757 cases of DCDA twin pregnancies from 11 Chinese hospitals from January 1, 2014, to December 31, 2017. Birth weight discordance was defined as ≥ 20% difference between the twins. All cases were divided into two groups: the concordant group ( n=1 520) and discordant group ( n=237). General information was compared and the high-risk factors of birth weight discordance were analyzed. Mann-Whitney U test, Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test, and logistic regression analysis were used as statistical methods. Results:Compared with the concordant group, the discordant group showed a higher incidence of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy [24.5% (58/237) vs 12.8% (194/1 520), χ2=22.882, P<0.05], fetal structural malformations [4.2% (10/237) vs 1.0% (15/1 520), χ2=15.160, P<0.05], fetal distress [6.3% (15/237) vs 1.4% (21/1 520), χ2=22.602, P<0.05], umbilical cord abnormalities [3.8% (9/237) vs 1.2% (18/1 520), χ2=7.607, P<0.05] and abnormal placental cord insertion [3.8% (9/237) vs 1.4% (21/1 520), χ2=34.904, P<0.05], but lower incidence of premature rupture of membranes [11.0% (26/237) vs 16.5% (250/1 520), χ2=4.645, P=0.034]. Logistic regression analysis showed that the independent risk factors of birth weight discordance in DCDA twins were hypertensive disorders of pregnancy ( OR=2.258, 95% CI: 1.620-3.184, P<0.001), fetal structural malformations ( OR=4.268, 95% CI: 1.892-9.631, P<0.001), umbilical cord abnormalities ( OR=2.889, 95% CI: 1.245-6.705, P=0.014) and abnormal placental cord insertion ( OR=2.318, 95% CI: 1.012-5.311, P=0.047). Conclusions:Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, fetal structural malformations, umbilical cord abnormalities and abnormal placental cord insertion may be the risk factors of birth weight discordance in DCDA twins.

Objective To label granulocytes in a state of differentiation in mouse bone marrow (BM) with EdU (5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine) for further understanding the changes in granulocyte produc-tion at different stages of differentiation during inflammation. Methods C57BL/6 mice were intraperitoneal-ly (i.p.) injected with EdU and heat-inactivated Escherichia coli(HI E.coli). BM cells were harvested at different time points after HI E.coli injection and then stained with fluorescent-conjugated antibodies(Abs). Myeloblasts,promyelocytes,myelocytes, metamyelocytes and band and segmented neutrophils were identi-fied by fluorescence-activated cell sorting(FACS). The percentage of EdU-positive cells in each population was recorded. Results The percentage of EdU-positive myeloblasts in mice increased by 10.0% at 24 h af-ter intraperitoneal injection with HI E.coli,but decreased by 75.0% and 23.0% at 48 h and 72 h,respec-tively. The percentage of EdU-positive promyelocytes declined by 23.0%,54.5%,64.3% and 77.8% at 24 h,48 h,72 h and 96 h,respectively. The percentage of EdU-positive myelocytes increased by 60.0% and 10.0% at 24 h and 48 h,but decreased by 80.0% and 90.0% at 72 h and 96 h. The percentage of EdU-positive metamyelocytes increased by 50.0% at 24 h,but decreased by 33.3%,61.5% and 66.7% at 48 h,72 h and 96 h. The percentage of EdU-positive band and segmented cells increased by 14.0% at 24 h,but decreased by 50.0%, 77.8% and 88.0% at 48 h, 72 h and 96 h. Conclusion Emergency granulopoiesis occurred 24 h after the establishment of HI E.coli-induced model of acute peritonitis, which meant that the proliferation of myeloid precursor cells,especially that of myelocytes and metamyelocytes,was accelerated and resulted in increasing number of mature neutrophils immigrating to sites of inflammation.
