Objective:To compare the diagnostic efficacy of Chinese diagnostic model, the 1990 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) classification criteria and the 2018 ACR new classification criteria (draft) for Takayasu arteritis (TA).Methods:A total of 196 TA patients who came to our hospital from January 1, 2009 to May 31, 2019 in the TA database of the department of rheumatology and immunology, Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University and 131 patients with other vascular diseases visited during the same period were selected. General characteristics, clinical data, laboratory tests and imaging tests of all patients were collected. Categorical variables were presented as numbers and percentages, between-group differences were analyzed using the χ2 test. Continuous variables were presented as the Mean± SD for a normal distribution or median and interquartile range (IQR) for a non-normal distribution. Between-group differences were analyzed using the Student's t-test or Mann- Whitney test, as appropriate. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, accuracy and receiver operating characteristics of the above diagnostic/classification criteria area under the curve were analyzed. P<0.05 was considered significant. Results:In terms of sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and area under receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), Chinese diagnostic models was 85.7%, 96.2%, 89.9%, 97.1%, 81.5%, 0.909, 1990 ACR criteria was 47.4%, 97.7%, 67.6%, 96.9%, 55.4%, 0.726, 2018 ACR classification criteria was 79.1%, 98.5%, 86.5%, 98.7%, 75.9%, 0.888. The difference between the Chinese diagnostic model and the 2018 ACR criteria in AUC was not statistically significant ( Z=1.186 , P>0.05). The sensitivity, accuracy and diagnostic efficiency of Chinese diagnostic model was the best, that of the 1990 ACR classification criteria was the worst, and the specificity of the 2018 ACR classification criteria was the highest. The Kappa value of the 2018 ACR classification criteria and the Chinese diagnostic model was 0.719, which had good consistency, and the Kappa value of the consistency between the 1990 ACR classification criteria and the Chinese TA diagnostic model was 0.516. Conclusion:The Chinese diagnostic model, which is based on the clinical characteristics of the Chinese TA population, has a good diagnostic efficacy for the Chinese population. The 2018 ACR classification criteria (draft) is highly consistent with the Chinese TA diagnostic model, and can be promoted and applied in practice.

Objective:To investigate the safety and feasibility of the occipital condyle screw and evaluate the safepath parameters for the occipital condyle screw.Methods:Data of 64 patients with upper cervical computed tomographic angiograms from September 2016 to September 2018 were retrospectively collected. Excluded occipito-cervical injury, tumor, and vertebral artery course variation. Mimics software was used to reconstruct the occiput, atlas and vertebral artery. Three candidate entry points were placed for each occipital condyle, the midpoint of posterior of occipital condyle as middle entry point, and the medial and lateral entry points were located 3 mm medial and lateral to the middle entry point. The vertebral artery-occipital bone distance (VOD) of each entry point were measured on sagittal plane, and the minimum feasible value was determined to be 4mm. After that 3.5 mm diameter virtual screw was inserted into each candidate entry point with VOD>4 mm, each screw with maximum and minimum cranial angulation was combined with appropriate medial angulation to get the maximum screw length. Then, the screw placement parameters were measured by 3-Matic, and the safe range of cranial angulation and the success rate of screw placement were calculated.Results:The VOD of medial and middle entry point were 8.07±2.13 mm and 7.70±2.19 mm respectively, and the feasibility rate of screw placement of those entry point were 97.7% and 96.1%, respectively. There were significant differences inVOD and feasibility rate of screw placement between medial and middle entry point. The VOD of lateral entry point was 5.63±1.66 mm, and the feasibility rate was only 78.9%, which was significantly lower than that of medial and middle entry point. The lateral entry point could obtain a larger medial angulation, which was supplemented by a longer screw length. The medial angulation and length of screw gradually decreased with the inward movement of the entry point. There were significant differences in medial angulation and screw length among groups. The safe range of cranial angulation of medial, middle and lateral entry points were 8.17°±2.55°, 12.58°±4.23° and 12.09°±3.83°, respectively, and the difference were statistically significant. Among the screw entry point that could accommodate screw fixation, the maximum screw placement success rate can be obtained by adding 5° cranial angulation to the lateral and middle entry point, which were 98.02% and 98.37%, respectively,while 100% success rate of screw placement could be obtained at the medial entry point at 3° cranial angulation.Conclusion:In the selection of the entry point in the horizontal direction, middle and medial entry points have higher success rate of screw placement and wider safe range of cranial angulation because of less affection of horizontal segment of the vertebral artery. However, the screw length of medial entry point is much shorter than middle and lateral entry point. As a result, the middle entry point may be an optimal entry point for the occipital condyle screw.

Objective To investigate the effects of Qingzao Jiufei Tang(QJD)and its decomposing agent on the levels of TNF-α,INF-γ levels of TNF-α of Qingo, P1 and AQP5 in lung tissue of mice infected with Mycoplasma pneu-moniae(MP),and to clarify its molecular anti-infective mechanism. Methods One hundred-forty-four SPF grade BABL/c mice were randomly divided into the normal group(group A),model group(group B),QJD group(group C),QJD de-composition agent I group(group D)、QJD decomposition group II Group(group E)and azithromycin group(group F), with 24 rats in each group. Besides the group A,the other 5 groups of mice were treated with MP infection. After the mod-eling,the mice were given corresponding drugs by gastric gavage,and samples were obtained on the days 3,7,10,14 af-ter the model was established. The lung tissue sections were examined by histopathology, and the degrees of inflammation in lung tissues in the mice were evaluated,and the lung index and the ratio of dry and wet lung weight ratio in the mice were calculated. The levels of MPN372 and P1 genes were determined by qPCR assay. The serum TNF-α and INF-γ levels in the mice were assessed by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). The expression of AQP5 protein was detected by Westernblot. Results After MP infection, the pathological examination revealed thickening of alveolar septum and bronchioles,and extensive inflammatory cell infiltration in the lung tissues. The lung index was increased and the ratio of dry and wet lung weight(P<0.05). TNF- α and INF-γ cedd and was increased, and reached the peak on the seventh day. The expression of AQP5 protein showed a downward tendency,and began to gradually increase on the 14th day. Com-pared with the group B,the expression levels of MPN372,P1 and TNF-α in the group D were down-regulated,and the ex-pression levels of INF-γ levein the group E were up-regulated from the 7th day. Conclusions QJD can control pulmonary inflammation in mice after MP infection. The decrease of production of MP toxin MPN372 and the expression of adhesion protein P1,the up-regulation of expression of INF-γ and AQP5 proteins,and down-regulation of TNF-α expression are one of the mechanisms of its action.
