In 2022, Hainan provincial government launched the project for the prevention and control of viral hepatitis with the goals of a hepatitis B screening rate of 90%, a diagnostic rate of 90%, and a treatment rate of 80% among people aged 18 years and above by the year 2025, and the main intervention measures include population-based prevention, case screening, antiviral therapy, and health management. As of December 31, 2024, a total of 6.875 million individuals in the general population had been screened for hepatitis B, with a screening rate of 95.6%. A total of 184 710 individuals with positive HBsAg were identified, among whom 156 772 were diagnosed through serological reexamination, resulting in a diagnostic rate of 84.9%. A total of 50 742 patients with chronic hepatitis B were identified, among whom 42 921 had hepatitis B-specific health records established for health management, with a file establishment rate of 84.6%. A total of 31 553 individuals received antiviral therapy, with a treatment rate of 62.2%. A total of 2.503 million individuals at a high risk of hepatitis C were screened, among whom 4 870 tested positive for HCV antibody and 3 858 underwent HCV RNA testing, resulting in a diagnostic rate of 79.2%, and 1 824 individuals with positive HCV RNA were identified, among whom 1 194 received antiviral therapy, with a treatment rate of 65.5%. In addition, 159 301 individuals with negative HBsAg and anti-HBs and an age of 20 — 40 years were inoculated with hepatitis B vaccine free of charge. Through the implementation of the project for the prevention and control of viral hepatitis, a large number of hepatitis patients have been identified, treated, and managed in the province within a short period of time, which significantly accelerates the efforts to eliminate the crisis of viral hepatitis.

ObjectiveTo explore the value of the Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) 3.0 in predicting survival outcomes for patients with alcoholic cirrhosis and to establish an effective mortality prediction model. MethodsClinical data of 788 hospitalized patients who were first diagnosed with alcoholic cirrhosis at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2019 were analyzed. Patients were followed up until December 31, 2023 and divided into survival and mortality groups based on the survival outcomes at 30 days, 90 days, 1 year, and 3 years after admission. The prognostic values of the MELD 3.0, MELD, MELD-Sodium (MELD-Na) for survival in alcoholic cirrhosis patients were assessed and compared by using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the area under the curve (AUC). Additional risk factors associated with mortality in alcoholic cirrhosis patients were identified, and a novel mortality prediction model based on MELD 3.0 was developed. ResultsThe AUC of the MELD 3.0 score in predicting 30-day, 90-day, 1-year, and 3-year survival was 0.823, 0.730, 0.686, and 0.658, respectively, which were superior to those of the MELD-Na (0.802, 0.708, 0.666, and 0.645, respectively) and MELD scores (0.698, 0.668, 0.654, and 0.633, respectively) (all P < 0.05). MELD 3.0 demonstrated better performance at 30 and 90 days (AVC=0.823,0.730; both P < 0.05) than at 1 year and 3 years (AVC=0.686,0.658; both P < 0.05). Binary logistic regression combined with LASSO regression indicated that the independent risk factors associated with the 1-year outcome included MELD 3.0, baseline ascites and hepatocellular carcinoma. A survival prediction model was then established with AUC of 0.748, sensitivity of 0.695, and specificity of 0.775. ConclusionsMELD 3.0 has a superior predictive ability for 30-day, 90-day, 1-year, and 3-year survival in patients with alcoholic cirrhosis than MELD-Na and MELD. The prediction model incorporating MELD 3.0, ascites and hepatocellular carcinoma improves the prediction of 1-year survival outcomes for alcoholic cirrhosis patients.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) combined with lower cervical fracture is often categorized into unstable fracture, with a high incidence of neurological injury and a high rate of disability and morbidity. As factors such as shoulder occlusion may affect the accuracy of X-ray imaging diagnosis, it is often easily misdiagnosed at the primary diagnosis. Non-operative treatment has complications such as bone nonunion and the possibility of secondary neurological damage, while the timing, access and choice of surgical treatment are still controversial. Currently, there are no clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture with or without dislocation. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedics Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts to formulate Clinical guidelines for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis combined with lower cervical fracture in adults ( version 2024) in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine, scientificity and practicality, in which 11 recommendations were put forward in terms of the diagnosis, imaging evaluation, typing and treatment, etc, to provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture.

Objective To investigate the biomechanical effects of the medial protrusio technique on the acetabular cup in adult patients with developmental hip(DDH)after total hip arthroplasty.Methods The CT scanning data of bilateral hips from an adult patient with unilateral DDH were obtained further to develop a finite element model of the affected hemipelvis.The medial protrusio technique with various levels of medial protrusio was simulated,and the biomechanical differences between the medial protrusio and non-protrusio groups were evaluated.Results In the simulated pull-out test,the maximum anti-pull-out load strength of the non-protrusio group was 1 166 N.Compared with the non-protrusio group,the anti-pull-out load strength of the 4 mm and 8 mm medial protrusio groups increased by 45.8%and 57.1%,respectively.The peak micromotion at the cup-bone interface for the non-protrusio group was 166.4 μm in the standing phase of the gait cycle,and that of the 4 mm and 8 mm medial protrusio groups was decreased by 46.2%and 62.1%,respectively.Regarding the immediate stress distributions of periacetabular bone tissues following cup implantation,the differences between the groups were not significant.Under the loading condition of the standing phase,the non-protrusio group yielded the lowest average and peak stresses.The average stress increased with the level of medial protrusio,and the highest peak stress was observed in the 4 mm medial protrusio group.Conclusions The medial protrusio technique can improve the initial stability of the acetabular cup,and the initial stability is positively proportional to the protrusio level.However,owing to the concentration of marginal stress at the cup-bone interface,a minor medial protrusio cup with insufficient bone coverage might increase the risk of various prosthesis-related complications.

Objective:To evaluate the application of layered harvesting technique for thin anterolateral thigh flap (ALTF) based on preoperative perforator mapping by colour Doppler ultrasound (CDU) and digital subtraction angiography (DSA).Methods:From April 2023 to November 2023, 13 patients (14 flaps) with forearm and hand wounds. were treated in the Department of Hand Surgery, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital, Capital Medical University, In this study, they were 8 males and 5 females; aged from 19 to 58 years old, with a mean of 37 years old. Body Mass Index (BMI) was 17.30 - 31.87 kg/m 2 with an average of 23.64 kg/m 2. The flap area was 9 cm×6 cm-20 cm×13 cm; the flap thickness was 4-6 mm with an average of 5.2 mm. Before surgery, CDU was applied to determine the entrance of the perforator vessel and made skin marking. DSA technology was further used to relocate the position of the perforator vessel and the branches of the superficial fascia layer at the flap tangential position. Based on the precise perforator positioning, the thin ALTF was harvested between the deep and superficial layers of the superficial fascia. Regular outpatient follow-ups were conducted after surgery. Results:The 14 flaps had 1 to 2 perforators and 2 to 4 superficial fascia branches, and the preoperative positioning coincided with the intraoperative perforator entrance, and the distance was less than 1 cm. All patients were included in the follow-up from 1 to 7 months with a mean of 3.2 months. Only 1 patient had the complication delayed healing at the donor site. All flaps survived successfully and had a good appearance without secondary trimming.Conclusion:Preoperative CDU and DSA accurately locate the entrance of the perforator and the distribution of superficial fascial branches, and the layered harvesting technique for thin ALTF, effectively reduces the difficulty at harvesting of the thin flap and reduces damage to the donor site.
