Objective To obtain the protective performance parameters of barium sulfate mortar against positron nuclide γ-rays, provide reference data for precise shielding calculations, and guide the design, evaluation, and construction of radiation shielding. Methods The FLUKA program was used to build a model for simulating the dose equivalent rate variation around points of interest under the irradiation of the most commonly used positron nuclide ¹⁸F with changes in the thicknesses of lead and barium sulfate mortar. The transmission curves of lead and barium sulfate mortar were fitted, and the half-value layer (HVL) and lead equivalence of barium sulfate mortar were calculated based on the fitted curves. Results The ambient dose equivalent rate coefficient of positron nuclide ¹⁸F was 1.339 4×10⁻¹ μSv·m²/MBq·h and the HVL for lead was 4.037 mm, with deviations of 0.043% and 1.53% compared to the values provided in the AAPM Report No. 108, respectively. The HVLs for γ-rays produced by ¹⁸F, using barium sulfate mortar with apparent densities of 4.20, 4.00, and 3.90 g/cm³ mixed with 35.2-grade cement in a 4∶1 mass ratio, were 2.914, 2.969, and 3.079 cm, respectively. The lead equivalences were 0.1385, 0.1360, and 0.1311 mmPb/mm, respectively. Conclusion The three types of barium sulfate mortar can provide good protection against γ-rays in positron imaging locations. As the apparent density of barium sulfate increases, its protective effect improves slightly but remains significantly better than common construction materials like concrete and solid bricks.

Objective To observe the effects of Tianma Gouteng Decoction combined with magnesium sulfate and Labetalol on lowering blood pressure and improving hemorheology in patients with gestational hypertension.Methods Ninety patients with gestational hypertension of liver-yang hyperactivity type were randomly divided into the combination group and the control group,with 45 cases in each group.The control group was treated with magnesium sulfate combined with Labetalol,and the combination group was treated with Tianma Gouteng Decoction on the basis of treatment for the control group.The course of treatment lasted for 5 days.The changes of systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP),urinary protein level,and hemorheological indicators of the two groups were observed before and after the treatment.Moreover,the adverse pregnancy outcomes,adverse reactions,and patients'satisfaction of the two groups were compared.Finally,the influencing factors of patients'adverse pregnancy outcomes were investigated by logistic regression analysis.Results(1)After treatment,the SBP,DBP and urinary protein level of patients in the two groups were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the decrease in the combination group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.01).(2)After treatment,the hemorheological indicators of plasma viscosity,whole blood viscosity and hematocrit of patients in the two groups were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the decrease in the combination group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(3)The total incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes in the combination group was 11.11%(5/45),which was significantly lower and that in the control group(33.33%,15/45),the difference being statistically significant(P＜0.05).(4)The patients'satisfaction of the combination group was 97.78%(44/45),which was significantly higher than that of the control group(84.44%,38/45),and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).(5)The total incidence of adverse reactions in the combination group was 13.33%(6/45)and that in the control group was 8.89%(4/45),but the intergroup comparison showed no significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).(6)Logistic regression analysis of influencing factors showed that no medication of Tianma Gouteng Decoction combined with Labetalol and magnesium sulfate,and poor antihypertensive effect were the independent risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with gestational hypertension(all OR＞1,P＜0.05).Conclusion Tianma Gouteng Decoction combined with magnesium sulfate and Labetalol in treating gestational hypertension exerts certain antihypertensive effect,and the therapy can effectively improve the hemorheological indicators and the adverse pregnancy outcomes,and enhance the patients'satisfaction.

Objective:To study influencing factors of post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD)in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI)after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods:According to score of PTSD checklist-civilian version(PCL-C),a total of 200 AMI patients undergoing PCI in our hospital were divid-ed into non-PTSD group(n=144,＜44 scores)and PTSD group(n=56,≥44 scores).General clinical data,scores of event related rumination inventory(ERRI),Eysenck personality questionnaire(EPQ)and social support rating scale(SSRS)were compared between two groups.Influencing factors of PTSD in AMI patients after PCI were analyzed.Results:There were 56 cases(28.00％)developing PTSD among the 200 AMI patients undergoing PCI.Compared with non-PTSD group,there were significant rise in age,percentage of hypertension,scores of in-vasive rumination of ERRI and neuroticism of EPQ,and significant reductions in percentage of living in town,scores of active rumination and internal & external of ERRI and SSRS in PTSD group(P＜0.05 or＜0.01).Multiva-riate Logistic regression analysis indicated that age and score of SSRS were independent protective factors for PTSD in AMI patients after PCI(OR=0.885,0.602,P=0.024,0.035),and scores of invasive rumination and neuroti-cism were independent risk factors for it(OR=2.986,3.360,P=0.032,0.025).Conclusion:Incidence rate of PTSD is higher in patients with acute myocardial infarction after PCI.Age,social support,scores of neuroticism and invasive rumination were influencing factors of PTSD in patients with acute myocardial infarction after PCI.

Osteoporotic proximal humeral fracture (OPHF) is one of the common osteoporotic fractures in the aged, with an incidence only lower than vertebral compression fracture, hip fracture, and distal radius fracture. OPHF, secondary to osteoporosis and characterized by poor bone quality, comminuted fracture pattern, slow healing, and severely impaired shoulder joint function, poses a big challenge to the current clinical diagnosis and treatment. In the field of diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of OPHF, traditional Chinese and Western medicine have accumulated rich experience and evidence from evidence-based medicine and achieved favorable outcomes. However, there is still a lack of guidance from a relevant consensus as to how to integrate the advantages of the two medical systems and achieve the integrated diagnosis and treatment. To promote the diagnosis and treatment of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine, relevant experts from Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatric Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, Youth Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Surgeon Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine have been organized to formulate Expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporotic proximal humeral fracture with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine ( version 2024) by searching related literatures and based on the evidences from evidence-based medicine. This consensus consists of 13 recommendations about the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, aimed at standardizing, systematizing, and personalizing the diagnosis and treatment of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinse and Western medicine to improve the patients ′ function.

Objective To analyze the effects of different anastomotic methods on flap survival rate and wound healing factors of patients with transplantation of superficial branch perforator flap of superficial circumflex iliac artery(SCIA).Methods A total of 100 patients with skin defects of limbs admitted to our hospital from January 2019 to August 2022 were selected and divided into end-to-end anastomosis group(56 cases)and end-to-side anastomosis group(44 cases)according to different anastomosis methods.In the end-to-end anastomosis group,the end of the flap artery was anastomosed with the end of the aortic branch in the affected area.In the end-to-side anastomosis group,the end of recipient flap artery was anastomosed with the side of aorta.Patients in both groups were followed up for 6 to 12 months,the arterial caliber,lateral caliber and anastomosis time were compared between the two groups.The survival of the flap,the occurrence of venous crisis,the shape and function of the flap and donor area were observed.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the arterial caliber or lateral caliber of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).The anastomosis time of patients in the end-to-end anastomosis group was significantly shorter than that in the end-to-side anastomosis group(P<0.05).All 56 cases in the end-to-end anastomosis group survived.In the end-to-side anastomosis group,venous crisis occurred in 4 cases,with venous thrombosis,2 cases survived after re-anastomosis,2 cases were changed to abdominal pedicled flap when venous crisis occurred again,the appearance and function of the flap and donor area were satisfactory 6 months to 1 year after surgery(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in color,thickness,vascular distribution or flexibility of donor area of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in pain,appearance,vitality and recreation of recipient area of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The application of different arterial anastomosis methods in the transplantation of superficial branch perforator flap of SCIA for the treatment of skin and soft tissue defects of limbs is safe and reliable,the postoperative survival of the flap is good,the healing is not affected by the anastomosis method,and the appearance of the affected area is satisfactory,which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To investigate the effect of erector spinae plane block on postoperative delirium and cognitive function in elderly patients with lung cancer undergoing thoracoscopic radical surgery.Methods A total of 90 elderly patients with lung cancer underwent thoracoscopic radical surgery were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the observation group,with 45 cases in each group.The patients in the control group were given general anesthesia,while the patients in the observation group were given erector spinae plane block before general anesthesia.The vital signs at different time points,opioid dosage,number of analgesic pump compressions,incision pain visual analogue scale(VAS)score,cognitive function and postoperative delirium of patients between the two groups were compared.Results At the end of anesthesia,the mean arterial pressure(MAP)and heart rate of patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The dosage of remifentanil during operation,sufentanil during perioperative period and number of analgesia pumps compressions of patients in the observation group were significantly less than those in the control group(P<0.05).The incision pain VAS scores 6 hours,12 hours,24 hours and 48 hours after surgery of patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The scores of cognitive function 6 hours and 24 hours after surgery of patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05);and the incidence of delirium 6 hours and 24 hours after surgery in the control group was significantly higher than those in the observation group(P<0.05).Conclusion Erector spinae plane block can significantly relieve the perioperative pain of elderly patients with lung cancer undergoing thoracoscopic radical surgery,reduce the dosage of opioids and the incidence of postoperative delirium,improve the postoperative cognitive function of patients,which provides a new idea for reducing the incidence of postoperative mental diseases.

Objective To explore the effects of different CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressures during operation on delirium and cognitive function of elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer.Methods A total of 92 elderly patients who underwent laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer were selected as the research subjects,and the patients were randomly divided into H group and L group,with 46 cases in each group.Patients in H group used CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure of 15 mmHg during surgery,while patients in L group used CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure of 11 mmHg during surgery.The cognitive function scores,postoperative delirium,blood gas analysis results,vital signs and adverse reactions during anesthesia awakening period of patients in the two groups were compared.Results The cognitive function scores 6 hours and 24 hours after surgery of patients in L group were significantly higher than those in H group(P<0.05).The incidences of delirium 6 hours and 24 hours after surgery in L group were significantly lower than those in H group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in mean arterial pressure(MAP),heart rate or pulse oxygen saturation(SpO2)before and after pneumoperitoneum of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).There were statistically significant differences in pH and partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PaCO2)at the end of pneumoperitoneum of patients between the two groups(P<0.05).The incidences of delayed awakening and agitation during the awakening period of patients in H group were significantly higher than those in L group(P<0.05).Conclusion For elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer,CO2 pneumoperitoneum of 11 mmHg pressure has a smaller effect on postoperative cognitive function and a lower incidence of postoperative delirium and adverse reactions during the awakening period,which may be related to the level of PaCO2 in the blood of patients,and should be paid attention to.

Objective:To observe the changes of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) level in myocardial tissue of pre-treatment mice with sepsis myocardial injury by electroacupuncture at Zusanli point, and to explore the protective effect and possible mechanism of electroacupuncture on myocardial injury in sepsis.Methods:Twenty male C57BL/6 mice were divided into control group (NC group), sepsis model group (LPS group), electroacupuncture group (EA group) and electroacupuncture + fluoxetine group (EA+FLU group) by random number table method, with 5 mice in each group. The myocardial injury model of sepsis was established by intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 10 g/L. The NC group was intraperitoneally injected with the same amount of normal saline. 3 days before mold making, EA group and EA+FLU group were electrocuted at Zusanli point on both sides for 15 minutes, once a day for 3 days. The EA+FLU group was intraperitoneally injected fluoxetine 1.4 g/L before electroacupuncture. After modeling, the cardiac histopathological changes were observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. The serum levels of inflammatory cytokines interleukins (IL-6, IL-8), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), the content of 5-HT in myocardial tissue, myocardial injury markers MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK-MB), and cardiac troponin I (cTnI), and the levels of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and lactic acid in myocardial tissue were detected. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to detect the mRNA expressions of 5-hydroxytryptamine transporter (5-HTT), hexokinase 2 (HK2) and glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) in myocardial tissue. GLUT4 expression in myocardial tissue was detected by immunofluorescence assay.Results:Compared with NC group, the serum levels of IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α, myocardial 5-HT content, myocardial tissue injury markers CK-MB, cTnI in LPS group and EA+FLU group were significantly increased. Compared with LPS group, the above indexes in EA group were significantly decreased [IL-6 (ng/L): 443.03±156.16 vs. 19?843.75±0.00, IL-1β (ng/L): 75.72±10.60 vs. 894.66±350.88, TNF-α (ng/L): 46.17±4.71 vs. 533.01±170.58, 5-HT (μg/L): 161.19±5.96 vs. 244.74±14.38, CK-MB (ng/L): 468.21±12.46 vs. 662.02±22.54, cTnI (ng/L): 0.83±0.05 vs. 0.99±0.08, all P < 0.05]. Compared with NC group, the levels of ATP in myocardium of LPS group, EA group and EA+FLU group were significantly decreased, the levels of lactic acid in myocardium were significantly increased. Compared with LPS group, the level of ATP in myocardium of EA group was significantly increased, the level of lactic acid in myocardium was significantly decreased [ATP (mmol/L): 0.10±0.01 vs. 0.08±0.01, lactic acid (mmol/L): 56.03±1.07 vs. 72.45±4.32, both P < 0.05]. Compared with NC group, the mRNA expression of HK2 in myocardium of LPS group was significantly increased, and the mRNA expressions of GLUT4 and 5-HTT were significantly decreased. Compared with LPS group, the mRNA expression of HK2 in myocardium of EA group was significantly decreased, the mRNA expressions of GLUT4 and 5-HTT were significantly increased [HK2 mRNA (relative expression level): 0.73±0.19 vs. 1.82±0.57, GLUT4 mRNA (relative expression level): 1.00±0.33 vs. 0.47±0.18, 5-HTT mRNA (relative expression level): 1.18±0.31 vs. 0.38±0.15, all P < 0.05]. Compared with NC group, the fluorescence intensity of GLUT4 in LPS group and EA+FLU group were significantly decreased. Compared with LPS group, the fluorescence intensity of GLUT4 in EA group was significantly enhanced. Conclusions:Electroacupunctureat Zusanli can reduce the content of 5-HT in myocardial tissue of sepsis mice, and its regulatory mechanism may be related to the regulation of 5-HTT and GLUT4.
