Objective:To fabricate the composite scaffolds for bone regeneration with silk fibroin (SF), bacterial cellulose nanofibers (BCNR) and hydroxyapatite (HAp) and evaluate their osteogenic activity.Methods:HAp particles, BCNR and bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP2) were added into SF aqueous solution in turn, poured into molds of different sizes after being mixed evenly and processed at -25 ℃ for 24 hours to obtain frozen molds, and the composite scaffolds were frozen-dried by freezing-drying machine. The composite scaffolds with different mass ratios of SF and BCNR were divided into groups A (2∶1), B (4∶1) and C (6∶1), and the inactive composite scaffolds without BMP2 fell into group D. The surface morphology and pore structure of the scaffolds were detected by scanning electron microscopy. The porosity of the scaffolds was measured by mercury intrusion porosimeter. The stress-strain curve was obtained by using the universal material testing machine to compress the scaffolds, with which their compressive strength and Young′s modulus were analyzed. Immortalized mouse embryonic fibroblasts (iMEF) were inoculated on the composite scaffolds of group A, B, C and D. At 4 and 8 days after cell inoculation, the proportion of alive and dead cells in each group was detected by cell survival/death staining; the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) was used to detect cell proliferation activity in each group; the positive staining cells were detected in each group by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining; the ALP activity was observed in each group with ALP activity detection. A total of 15 female SD rats were selected to establish osteogenesis models with ectopic muscle bag. The composite scaffolds implanted with different SF/BCNR mass ratios and the inactive composite scaffolds without BMP2 fell into group A′ (2∶1), B′ (4∶1), C′ (6∶1) and D′ respectively, and a sham operation group was set at the same time, with 3 rats in each groups. In the sham operation group, the muscle bag and skin were sutured without scaffold implantation after the incision of skin, the blunt separation of the quadriceps muscle, and the formation of muscle bag in the muscle. In the other four groups, the corresponding scaffolds were implanted in the muscle bag and the muscle bag and skin were sutured. X-ray examination was performed at 2 and 4 weeks after operation to observe the osteogenesis in each group. At 4 weeks after operation, the implanted scaffolds and tissue complexes were collected by pathological tissue sectioning, HE staining and Masson staining, and for observing the osteogenesis by in each group. Immunohistochemical staining was also performed on the tissue sections to observe the expression of osteogenic markers type I collagen (COL1) and osteopontin (OPN) in each group.Results:Scanning electron microscopy showed that the lamellar and micropore structures of group B were more regular and uniform than those of groups A and C. The porosity rate analysis showed that the porosity rates of groups B and C were (89.752±1.866)% and (84.257±1.013)% respectively, higher than that of group A [(81.171±1.268)%] ( P<0.05 or 0.01), with the porosity rate of group C lower than that of group B ( P<0.01). The mechanical property test showed that the compressive strengths of groups B and C were (0.373±0.009)MPa and (0.403±0.017)MPa respectively, higher than that of group A [(0.044±0.003)MPa] ( P<0.01), and the Young′s moduli of groups B and C were (7.413±0.094)MPa and (9.515±0.615)MPa respectively, higher than that of group A [(1.881±0.036)MPa] ( P<0.01), with the compressive strength and Young′s modulus of group C higher than those of group B ( P<0.05 or 0.01). The cell survival/death staining showed that the number of dead cells of group B was significantly smaller than that of groups A, C and D at 4 days after cell inoculation, and that group B had the most living cells and the fewest dead cells at 8 days after cell inoculation. The results of CCK-8 experiment showed that at 4 days after cell inoculation, the cell proliferation activity of groups A and B was 0.474±0.009 and 0.545±0.018 respectively, higher than 0.394±0.016 of group D ( P<0.01); the cell proliferation activity of group C was 0.419±0.005, with no significant difference from that of group D ( P>0.05), while the cell proliferation activity of groups A and C were both lower than that of group B ( P<0.01). At 8 days after cell inoculation, the cell proliferation activity of group B was 1.290±0.021, higher than 1.047±0.011 of group D ( P<0.01); the cell proliferation activity of group C was 0.794±0.032, lower than that of group D ( P<0.01); the cell proliferation activity of group A was 1.086±0.020, with no significant difference from that of group D ( P>0.05); the cell proliferation activity of groups A and C was lower than that of group B ( P<0.01). At 4 and 8 days after cell inoculation, ALP staining showed that more positive cells were found in groups A, B and C when compared with group D, and more positive cells were found in group B than in groups A and C. At 4 days after cell inoculation, the ALP activity detection showed that the ALP activity of groups A, B and C was 1.399±0.071, 1.934±0.011 and 1.565±0.034 respectively, higher than 0.082±0.003 of group D ( P<0.01), while the ALP activity of groups A and C was lower than that of group B ( P<0.01). At 8 days after cell inoculation, the cell activity of groups A, B and C was 2.602±0.055, 3.216±0.092 and 2.145±0.170 respectively, higher than 0.101±0.001 of group D ( P<0.01), while the ALP activity of groups A and C was lower than that of group B ( P<0.01). X-ray examination results showed that at 2 weeks after operation, no obvious osteogenesis was observed in the sham operation group, group D′, A′ and C′, while it was observed in group B′. At 4 weeks after operation, obvious osteogenesis was observed in group A′, B′ and C′, with significantly more osteogenesis in group B′ than in the other two groups, while there was no obvious osteogenesis in the sham operation group and group D′. At 4 weeks after operation, the HE staining and Masson staining showed that a large number of uniformly distributed new bone tissue was formed in group B′, while only a small amount of new bone tissue was found locally in groups A′ and C′, and only part of new tissue was found to grow in group D′ with no obvious new bone tissue observed. The maturity of new bone tissue formed in group B′ was higher than that in group A′ and C′. Immunohistochemical staining showed more COL1 and OPN positive staining in group B′ when compared with groups A′ and C′. The expression intensity analysis of COL1 and OPN showed that in groups A′, B′ and C′, the expression intensity of COL1 was 2.822±0.384, 22.810±2.435 and 12.480±0.912 respectively and the expression intensity of OPN was 1.545±0.081, 5.374±0.121 and 2.246±0.116 respectively, with higher expression intensity of COL1 and OPN in groups B′ and C′ than that in group A′ ( P<0.01) and lower expression intensity of COL1 and OPN in group C′ than that in B′ group ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The composite scaffold for bone regeneration is successfully fabricated with SF, BCNR and HAp. The composite scaffold with a mass ratio of SF to BCNR of 4∶1 has uniform pore structure, high porosity, good mechanical properties and biocompatibility, excellent pro-osteogenic properties in vitro, as well as excellent osteo-inductivity and osteo-conductivity.

Objective:To explore the epidemiological characteristics of geriatric hip fractures in Beijing so as to provide evidence for effective prevention and control measures.Methods:This multicenter study was conducted in 3 urban (Beijing Jishuitan Hospital, Beijing Hospital and Beijing Anzhen Hospital) and 3 suburban hospitals (Beijing Shunyi District Hospital, Beijing Changping District Hospital and Beijing Liangxiang Hospital) in Beijing from November 2018 to November 2019. Eligible patients were those aged ≥ 65 years with hip fracture confirmed by X-ray and being admitted to hospital within 21 days of injury. To explore the epidemiological characteristics of geriatric hip fractures in Beijing, such data were collected as patients' age, gender, comorbidities, as well as type, site, time and cause of the fracture.Results:① A total of 2,071 patients were included in this suevey. They were 653 males and 1,418 females (M∶F=1∶2.17). Their age ranged from 65 to 102 years (average, 79.8 years). The patients aged from 75 to 84 years were the most common, accounting for 44.81% (928/2,071). ② Femoral neck fractures accounted for 43.41% (899/2,071), and intertrochanteric fractures accounted for 56.59% (1,172/2,071). The age of the patients with femoral neck fracture was (78.6±7.7) years, which was significantly younger than that of those with intertrochanteric fracture [(80.7±7.4) years] ( P<0.05). ③ 94.69% of the hip fractures (1,961/2,071) were caused by falling, and 71.27% fractures (1,476/2,071) happened at home. ④ Approximately 83.00% of the patients (1,719/2,071) had one or more comorbid conditions. Hypertension was the most prevalent disease (57.89%, 1,199/2,071), followed by diabetes (27.09%, 561/2,071), and coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (22.02%, 456/2,071). Conclusions:In Beijing, significantly more geriatric females sustain a hip fracture than males, and the proportion of those aged from 75 to 84 year is the largest. The proportion of intertrochanteric fractures increases with age. Falls are the leading cause for geriatric hip fractures. Most of the patients have one or more chronic comorbid conditions. Corresponding prevention and intervention measures should be formulated according to the distribution characteristics of elderly hip fractures in Beijing.

Objective:To explore the classification and treatment strategy of femoral neck fracture combined with ipsilateral intertrochanteric fracture.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed of the 44 patients who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedics, Liangxiang Teaching Hospital, Capital Medical University from March 2003 to March 2019 for femoral neck fracture combined with ipsilateral intertrochanteric fracture. They were 19 males and 25 females, aged from 37 to 93 years (average, 77.9 years). According to the anatomical location and displacement severity, the femoral neck fractures were divided into 3 types while the intertrochanteric fractures were classified as stable or unstable ones. There were 3 cases of type Ⅰ which were completely extracapsular ones, 31 cases of type Ⅱ which were intracapsular stable ones, and 10 cases of type Ⅲ which were intracapsular unstable ones. Types Ⅰ and Ⅱ fractures were treated with intramedullary fixation, and type Ⅲ fractures with cemented hip hemi-replacement+reduction and fixation of the intertrochanteric fracture with Kirschner wires and steel cables. Recorded were fracture healing time, function of the affected hip and complications.Results:The 44 patients were followed up for at least 2 years. The fracture healing time for the 3 patients with type I fracture averaged 5.6 months (from 4.4 to 6.8 months); their hip function at the last follow-up, evaluated by the Harris scoring system, was excellent in 2 cases and good in one case. For 30 of the 31 patients with type Ⅱ fracture, the fracture healing time averaged 7.2 months (from 5.1 to 9.3 months); their hip function at the last follow-up, evaluated by the Harris scoring system, was excellent in 18 cases, good in 6 cases, fair in 5 cases, and poor in 2 cases, giving an excellent and good rate of 77.4% (24/31). As for complications, withdrawal or cutting-out of the head screw happened in 6 cases, infection in one case and nonunion in one case. In 10 patients with type Ⅲ fracture, the hip function at the last follow-up was excellent in 7 cases, good in 2 cases and poor in one case.Conclusions:For type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ femoral neck fractures combined with ipsilateral intertrochanteric fracture, intramedullary fixation with angulation stability may be a proper choice. For type Ⅲ ones, hip joint replacement should be the first choice.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of percutaneous transhepatic choledochoscope lithotomy (PTCSL) with laparoscopic choledocholithotomy (LD) in treatment of choledocholithiasis.Methods:Data of 132 patients with choledocholithiasis treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from July 2012 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 75 males and 57 females, with an average age of 62.7 years. For 76 patients underwent PTCSL (the PTCSL group) and 56 underwent LD (the LD group). The data of the patients the success rate of lithotomy, stone residual rate, operation time, postoperative complications and stone recurrence, chronic cholangitis, and acute cholangitis 1 month after operation were compared between the two groups.Results:The ratio of upper abdominal operation history and biliary tract infection in the PTCSL group was higher than that in the LD group, and the difference was statistically significant (both P<0.05). In the PTCSL group, the calculi were successfully removed in 64 patients in one treatment session, while residual calculi were removed through subsequent sinus choledochoscopy in 9 patients. In the remaining 3 patients, the residual calculi were removed with LD or laparotomy operations. Postoperative complications occurred in 14 patients (19.2%, 14/73). In the LD group, the calculi were successfully removed in one session in 46 patients while in 8 patients the residual calculi were removed by choledochoscopy (1 patient still had residual calculi after choledochoscopy). The remaining 2 patients underwent open surgery due to anatomical difficulties. Postoperative complications occurred in 11 patients (20.4%, 11/54). There were no significant differences between the two groups in the one-off stone removal rate, postoperative stone residual rate, final stone removal rate and postoperative complication rate (all P>0.05). The operation time of the PTCSL group was (156±60) min, which was significantly shorter than the LD group (203±59) min ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the incidence of postoperative chronic cholangitis and recurrence rate of calculi (both P>0.05). The incidence of acute cholangitis in the PTSCL group was significantly higher than that in the LD group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:PTCSL was as safe and effective as LD, with fewer complications and faster recovery. It is especially suitable for patients with previous upper abdominal surgery, recurrence of calculi and repeated biliary tract infection.

ObjectiveTo investigate the anxiety and its effect on the sleep quality in patients with cerebral infarction and sleep-disordered breathing. Methods149 cerebral infarction patients were divided as 95 without sleep-disordered breathing and 54 with sleep-disordered breathing. They were evaluated with Hamilton Anxiety scale (HAMA) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). ResultsPatients with sleep-disordered breathing showed higher HAMA overall score and factor scores of somatic anxiety and psychic anxiety（P<0.001）. In the factors of somatic anxiety, the scores of sensing, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and autonomic nerve system were higher in patients with sleep-disordered breathing than those without sleep-disordered breathing （P<0.05）. In the factors of psychic anxiety, the scores of anxious mood, tension, fears, insomnia, depressed mood were higher in patients with sleep-disordered breathing（P<0.05）. PSQI overall score and all factor scores were also higher in patients with sleep-disordered breathing（P<0.001）. HAMA overall score as well as psychic anxiety and somatic anxiety scores were closely correlated with the PSQI overall score （P<0.001）. Somatic anxiety score was correlated with subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep disturbance and daily dysfunction scores （P<0.05）. Psychic anxiety score was correlated with all the dimension scores of PSQI （P<0.01）. ConclusionCerebral infarction patients with sleep-disordered breathing appeared anxiety and worse sleep quality than patients without sleep-disordered breathing. Anxiety is closely related with sleep quality.
