Objective To observe the effect of ultrasound-guided iliopsoas plane block(IPB)on the quality of postoperative recovery in patients undergoing hip arthroplasty.Methods Sixty patients who underwent hip arthroplasty were selected,37 males and 23 females,aged 40-79 years,BMI 18-30 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅰ-Ⅲ.The patients were divided into two groups by random number table method:the iliopsoas plane block group(group IPB)and the femoral nerve block(FNB)group(group FNB),30 pa-tients in each group.Before anesthesia induction,IPB was performed with 0.5%ropivacaine 10 ml and lat-eral femoral cutaneous nerve block was performed with 0.5%ropivacaine 5 ml in group IPB.And FNB was performed with 0.5%ropivacaine 10 ml and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block was performed with 0.5%ropivacaine 5 ml in group FNB.The dosages of propofol,remifentanil,and cis-atracurium during operation were recorded.The quality of recovery-15(QoR-15)scale was evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively 1 day,2 and 3 days.The max VAS(VASmax)pain score and manual muscle test(MMT)score of quadri-ceps muscle were recorded 12,24,and 48 hours after surgery.The time of getting out of bed for the first time,opioid dosage,and patient satisfaction were recorded.The incidence of nerve injury,vascular injury,puncture site infection,and local anesthetic poisoning were recorded.The postoperative complications of diz-ziness,nausea and vomiting,deep vein thromboses,and elirium were also recorded.Results There was no significant difference in the dosage of propofol,remifentanil,and cis-atracurium between the two groups.Compared with group FNB,the QoR-15 scale score in group IPB was significantly higher 1 day,2 and 3 days after operation(P＜0.05).Compared with group FNB,the MMT scores of quadriceps muscle was sig-nificantly higher in group IPB 12 and 24 hours after surgery(P＜0.05),and the first time of getting out of bed was shortened in group IPB(P＜0.05).However,there were no significant differences in the VASmax pain score,MMT score of quadriceps muscle 48 hours after surgery,opioid dosage,and patient satisfaction between the two groups.No nerve block related complications were found in both groups.There were no sig-nificant differences in postoperative complications between the two groups.Conclusion The iliopsoas plane block can improve the quality of postoperative recovery and accelerate the recovery of patients with hip re-placement,and the effect is better than that of femoral nerve block.

With the aging population, the increasing incidence of adult spinal deformity (ASD) associated with osteoporosis (OP) presents new challenges for evaluation and management. Although reasonable and standardized non-surgical treatment remains the first choice in the early stages of this disease, surgical treatment is necessary for patients with severe deformities and significant symptoms to achieve further improvement. Proximal junctional kyphosis/failure (PJK/PJF) is one of the most serious postoperative complications of ASD. Careful and comprehensive preoperative evaluation of bone quality and body sagittal alignment is crucial for the successful implementation of the operation. The Hounsfield unit (HU) based on CT imaging and the vertebral bone quality (VBQ) score based on MRI have proven to be reliable, effective, simple, and widely used in evaluating local vertebral bone quality in recent years. For the evaluation and prediction of PJF after ASD, the bone quality of the upper instrumented vertebra (UIV) can be assessed using HU values to identify high-risk patients and implement preventive measures. The VBQ score is predictive of the incidence of PJK/PJF in patients undergoing ASD surgery, with a high VBQ score being one of the risk factors for PJK/PJF after ASD correction. Patients with high VBQ scores can delay surgery and use anti-osteoporosis drugs before surgery to reduce the occurrence of PJK/PJF. Meanwhile, reasonable and personalized recovery parameters of ASD patients' sagittal sequence can help balance the benefits of efficacy and complications, maximizing the overall benefits. The prevention of PJK/PJF is challenging due to the stress gap between the internal fixation area and the original unfixed tissue area in the postoperative proximal junctional area, which is increasingly significant in OP patients. It is necessary to improve the fixation strength and bone riveting strength of the proximal junction area properly and to gradually decrease the fixed strength in the proximal junctional area to achieve a smooth transition of stress and avoid stress concentration resulting in failure. Relevant strategies include: 1. Enhanced proximal junction fixation, such as vertebral cement-enhanced pedicle screw fixation. 2. Strategies to cushion the stress in the proximal junction, such as Topping-off technology, which includes laminar/transverse hooks, dynamic rods, multi-segment stabilization screws, and multiple ligament-binding straps. 3. Minimally invasive technology can better protect the soft tissues such as the posterior ligament complex and muscles, reduce iatrogenic injury, and thus reduce the incidence of PJK/PJF. Currently, there are many controversies about the optimal treatment for ASD with OP, but the goal is to achieve maximum efficacy while minimizing complications. Additionally, attention should be paid to reasonable and standard anti-osteoporosis treatment in the perioperative period. This paper summarizes the relevant studies used to evaluate PJK/PJF after ASD in patients with OP and reviews the research progress on PJK/PJF prevention strategies, providing reference and ideas for reducing postoperative proximal junctional complications in adult spinal deformity patients with osteoporosis.

Aim To construct a diabetic atherosclerosis mouse model and study the pathological characteristics of diabetic atherosclerosis.Methods Fifty 8-week-old male LDLR-/-mice were fed with standard diet for 2 weeks and then changed to high-fat diet,they were randomly divided into two groups.The diabetic atherosclerosis group was given intraperitoneal injection of low dose streptozotocin(STZ)for 5 days continuouly to establish the model,and the atheroscle-rosis group was given citrate buffer injection at the same time.The body mass,blood glucose and blood lipids of the mice in the two groups were detected for many times.At the age of 23 weeks,the mice were euthanized after glucose tolerance test.HE staining and oil red O staining were used to detect the gross and aortic root atherosclerosis,immunohistochemical staining was used to detect CD4,α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA),EGF-like module-containing mucin-like hormone re-ceptor-like 1(EMR1),monocyte chemotactic protein-1(MCP-1),NOD-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3),vascular cell adhesion molecule-1(VCAM-1),matrix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2)and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1(TIMP-1),Western blot was used to detect α-SMA,CD4,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),NLPR3,intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1),and type Ⅰ and Ⅲ collagen.Results Compared with the atherosclerosis group,the body mass decreased,the levels of total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDLC)increased,and the levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDLC)decreased(P＜0.05)in the diabetic atherosclerosis group.Compared with the atherosclerosis group,the distribution of atherosclerotic plaques was diffuse and the area was increased in the diabetic atherosclerosis group,and the contents of lipids,T cells,macrophages,smooth muscle cells,type Ⅰ and Ⅲ colla-gen were increased(P＜0.05);the protein levels of TNF-α,MCP-1,MMP-2,NLRP3,ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in vascular tissues were increased,while the content of TIMP-1 were decreased and MMP2/TIMP-1 were increased(P＜0.05).Conclusions LDLR-mouse model of diabetic atherosclerosis can be successfully established by STZ induction combined with high-fat diet,which can reflect the plaque composition and inflammatory characteristics of diabetes promoting atheroscle-rosis.It can be used as a relatively ideal pathological model for the study of diabetic macroangiopathy.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for refracture after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted on the clinical data of 149 OVCF patients who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from June 2019 to June 2022, including 21 males and 128 females, aged 56-97 years [(73.2±8.7)years]. Initial surgical segments included T 7 in 1 patient, T 8 in 10, T 9 in 6, T 10 in 6, T 11 in 19, T 12 in 28, L 1 in 38, L 2 in 18, L 3 in 11, L 4 in 7 and L 5 in 5. Patients were divided into refracture group ( n=32) and non-refracture group ( n=117) according to whether they had postoperative refracture after PKP. Refractured surgical segments included T 8 in 2 patients, T 9 in 2, T 11 in 4, T 12 in 5, L 1 in 7, L 2 in 4, L 3 in 6, and L 5 in 2. The age, gender, underlying diseases (hypertension, diabetes), body mass index (BMI), preoperative bone mineral density (BMD), smoking history, drinking history, follow-up time, preoperative visual analogue scale (VAS), and preoperative Oswestry dysfunction index (ODI) of the two groups were recorded. Preoperative paravertebral muscle-related parameters of the two groups were calculated including cross-sectional area of bilateral psoas, bilateral erector spinae, bilateral multifidus, and vertebral bodies, paravertebral muscle mass, and vertebral bone quality (VBQ) score. Univariate analysis was performed to evaluate the correlation between the fore-mentioned indicators and postoperative refracture after PKP in OVCF patients. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to identify the independent risk factors for postoperative refracture after PKP in OVCF patients. Results:Univariate analysis revealed that there was certain correlation of BMI, preoperative BMD, cross-sectional area of bilateral psoas, bilateral erector spinae, bilateral multifidus, paravertebral muscle mass and VBQ score with postoperative refracture after PKP in OVCF patients ( P<0.01), while no correlation was found between age, gender, hypertension, diabetes, smoking history, drinking history, follow-up time, preoperative VAS, preoperative ODI, or cross-sectional area of vertebral bodies and postoperative refracture after PKP in OVCF patients ( P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative BMD ≤-3.4 SD ( OR=0.27, 95% CI 0.09, 0.80, P<0.05), paravertebral muscle mass ≤281.2% ( OR=0.98, 95% CI 0.97, 0.99, P<0.01) and VBQ score ≥4.8 points ( OR=4.41, 95% CI 1.18, 16.44, P<0.05) were significantly correlated with postoperative refracture after PKP in OVCF patients. Conclusion:Preoperative BMD ≤-3.4 SD, paravertebral muscle mass ≤281.2%, and VBQ score ≥4.8 points are the independent risk factors for refracture after PKP in OVCF patients.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors for residual pain after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF).Methods:Retrospectively analyzed were the patients with OVC who had been treated at Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University by single level PKP from January 2020 to December 2021. They were 40 men and 181 women, with an age of (69.6±8.2) years. By the pain score of visual analogue scale (VAS) on the postoperative day 3, they were assigned into 2 groups: a residual pain group (VAS≥4) and a control group (VAS<4). The general demographics, radiographic and surgical related data of the 2 groups were analyzed by single factor analysis, including their gender, age, bone mineral density, body mass index, glucocorticoid usage, follow-up time, duration of symptoms, fracture location, severity of fracture compression, intravertebral cleft, middle column involvement, thoracolumbar fascia injury, anesthesia method, puncture method, volume of bone cement injected, cement-endplates contact, pattern of cement distribution, cement leakage, vertebral height restoration, preoperative cobb angle and correction of cobb angle. The P<0.1 factors screened were further analyzed by the multivariate logistic regression to determine the final variables. Results:In the present study, 19 patients were assigned into the residual pain group and 202 patients the control group. The univariate analysis showed that body mass index ( P=0.059), intravertebral cleft ( P=0.049) and thoracolumbar fascia injury ( P< 0.001) increased the risk for residual pain. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that thora-columbar fascia injury was an independent risk factor for residual pain ( OR=6.127, 95% CI: 2.240 to 16.755, P<0.001). Conclusion:Thoracolumbar fascia injury is an independent risk factor for residual pain after PKP for OVF.

Objective:To explore the characteristics and differences of oxygenated hemoglobin responses in different brain regions in adolescent depressive disorder patients and healthy adolescents during speech fluency task based on functional near-infrared spectroscopy imaging.Methods:From March 2021 to June 2021, twenty-nine adolescents with depression(depressed group) and 26 healthy adolescents(normal group) were enrolled. The severity of depression was assessed by Hamilton depression scale, and the speech fluency task was performed by functional near-infrared spectroscopy brain imaging, and the relative concentrations of oxyhemoglobin in the prefrontal and bilateral temporal lobes were measured.SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used for data analysis, chi-square test was used for gender count data. The t-test was used for comparison of two groups. The measurement data that did not conform to normal distribution were compared between the two groups by Mann-Whitney U test. Results:In the speech fluency task, there was no significant difference in the concentration of oxygenated hemoglobin in prefrontal and left temporal between the depressed group and the normal group (both P>0.05); the oxygenated hemoglobin concentration in the right temporal lobe(-9.179(-22.231, 4.789)) of depressed group was significantly lower than that of the normal group (12.754(-9.438, 35.008)), and the difference was statistically significant ( U=538.00, P<0.05). The oxygenated hemoglobin concentration in right temporal lobe of depressed group had no correlation with the score of Hamilton depression rating scale ( r=0.092, P>0.05). Conclusion:The right temporal lobe function of adolescent depression patients is lower than that of healthy controls during speech fluency tasks, which provides a basis for study of the relationship between depression and some cognitive sensitivity impairment and the function of right temporal lobe.

Objective:To understand the status quo of nutrition knowledge, attitude and behavior of nurses in class A tertiary hospital and its influencing factors, and to provide reference for the development of reasonable and standard nutrition training courses.Methods:The knowledge, attitude and behavior of nutrition of 207 nurses in 28 class A tertiary hospitals from 17 provinces cities on October 25-26, 2019 were investigated Questionnaire on Nutritional Knowledge, Attitude and Behavior Cognition of Nurses.Results:The scores of nurses′ nutritional knowledge, attitude and behavior were (69.70 ± 2.92), (82.76 ± 4.97) and (64.90 ± 4.77) respectively. There were significant differences in nurses′ nutritional knowledge, attitude and behavior at different ages, nursing ages, whether they had children, the highest educational background, department rotation, technical titles, administrative positions, employment methods, article publication, whether they had participated in nutrition training courses and in different regions ( F values were 6.80-60.95, t values were 2.94-7.08, all P<0.05). The main factors affecting nutrition knowledge were region, nursing age, the highest educational background, department rotation and whether they had participated in nutrition training courses ( t values were -6.88-6.73, all P<0.05). The main factors affecting nutritional attitude were region, nursing age and the highest educational background ( t=-2.22, 6.84, 3.21, all P<0.05). The main factor affecting nutritional behavior was nursing age ( t=5.45, P<0.05). Conclusions:Nurses′ nutritional attitude level is excellent, but their mastery of nutritional knowledge and nutritional nursing behavior level need to be improved. Reasonable, scientific and feasible nutritional training courses should be formulated according to the influencing factors of their nutritional knowledge, attitude and behavior, so as to improve nurses′ nutritional knowledge, belief and behavior level and improve the nutritional status and prognosis of hospitalized patients.

Objective:To investigate the dose-effect relationship of alfentanil inhibiting cardiovascular responses to tracheal intubation when combined with midazolam and etomidate.Methods:American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of either sex, aged 18-64 yr, with body mass index<32 kg/m 2, undergoing elective operation under general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation, were enrolled in this study.Midazolam 0.025 mg/kg was intravenously injected for adequate sedation, and 5 min later mean arterial pressure and heart rate were recorded for 3 consecutive times at an interval of 3 min, and the mean value was calculated and served as the baseline value.Etomidate 0.3 mg/kg was intravenously injected, and alfentanil and rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg were intravenously injected when bispectral index value < 60, and then 1.4 min later tracheal intubation was performed.The dose of alfentanil was determined by the Dixon′s up-and-down method.The initial dose of alfentanil was set at 20 μg/kg.The dose of alfentanil in the next patient was determined according to the development of cardiovascular responses to tracheal intubation, and the ratio between the two successive doses was 1.0∶1.1.The cardiovascular response was defined as as positive when the maximum value of mean arterial pressure or heart rate increased by ≥20% of the baseline value within 2 min after endotracheal intubation.Probit method was used to determine the ED 50, ED 95 and 95% confidence interval of alfentanil inhibiting cardiovascular responses to tracheal intubation. Results:When combined with midazolam and etomidate, the ED 50 (95% confidence interval) of alfentanil inhibiting cardiovascular responses to tracheal intubation was 21.343 (19.105-24.516) μg/kg, and the ED 95 (95% confidence interval) was 25.043 (22.983-48.983) μg/kg. Conclusions:When combined with midazolam and etomidate, the ED 50 and ED 95 of alfentanil inhibiting cardiovascular responses to tracheal intubation are 21.343 and 25.043 μg/kg, respectively.

Although chromosomal mosaic embryos detected by trophectoderm(TE)biopsy offer healthy embryos available for transfer,high-resolution postnatal karyotyping and chromosome testing of the transferred embryos are insufficient.Here,we applied single-cell multi-omics sequenc-ing for seven infants with blastula chromosomal mosaicism detected by TE biopsy.The chromo-some ploidy was examined by single-cell genome analysis,with the cellular identity being identified by single-cell transcriptome analysis.A total of 1616 peripheral leukocytes from seven infants with embryonic chromosomal mosaicism and three control ones with euploid TE biopsy were analyzed.A small number of blood cells showed copy number alterations(CNAs)on seem-ingly random locations at a frequency of 0％-2.5％per infant.However,none of the cells showed CNAs that were the same as those of the corresponding TE biopsies.The blastula chromosomal mosaicism may be fully self-corrected,probably through the selective loss of the aneuploid cells dur-ing development,and the transferred embryos can be born as euploid infants without mosaic CNAs corresponding to the TE biopsies.The results provide a new reference for the evaluations of trans-ferring chromosomal mosaic embryos in certain situations.
