Objective  To understand the current status of surgical treatment for hemophilia osteoarthropathy (HO) in China.  Methods  Using an online questionnaire, select domestic hospitals that partici-pated in the compilation of the 'Guideline for perioperative management of hemophilia patients undergoing orthopaedic surgery in China ', in addition to members of the National Joint Surgery Group, and the Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Association for targeted investigation and analysis.  Results  A total of 17 domestic hospitals were included, all of which were general hospitals. Hospitals that started HO surgery treatment before 2000 accounted for 35.29%. A total of 3057 surgical cases of HO were reported by those hospitals. The most commonly performed surgical procedures were hip and knee joint replacement. The most commonly used coagulation factor replacement regimen was recombinant coagulation factor preparation. Ten hospitals reported finding patients with transfusion-related infectious diseases. Bleeding and hematoma formation were the most frequently reported surgical complications. Excessive length of hospital stay and high economic costs were the most frequently reported problems.  Conclusions  Surgical treatment for HO in 17 hospitals is mainly carried out in some large comprehensive medical centers in the eastern region. Compared with the patient base, the popularity and number of surgeries are still relatively insufficient. It is necessary to further standardize the treatment system by standardizing factor replacement and strengthening rehabilitation to improve surgical treatment outcomes.

Hypertension is a prevalent systemic disease in the elderly, who can suffer from several pathological skeletal conditions simultaneously, including osteoporosis. Benidipine (BD), which is widely used to treat hypertension, has been proved to have a beneficial effect on bone metabolism. In order to confirm the osteogenic effects of BD, we investigated its osteogenic function using mouse MC3T3-E1 preosteoblast cells in vitro. The proliferative ability of MC3T3-E1 cells was significantly associated with the concentration of BD, as measured by methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and cell cycle assay. With BD treatment, the osteogenic differentiation and maturation of MC3T3-E1 cells were increased, as established by the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity test, matrix mineralized nodules formation, osteogenic genetic test, and protein expression analyses. Moreover, our data showed that the BMP2/Smad pathway could be the partial mechanism for the promotion of osteogenesis by BD, while BD might suppress the possible function of osteoclasts through the OPG/RANKL/RANK (receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB)) pathway. The hypothesis that BD bears a considerable potential in further research on its dual therapeutic effect on hypertensive patients with poor skeletal conditions was proved within the limitations of the present study.

Coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19),which is caused by SARS-CoV-2,varies with regard to symptoms and mortality rates among populations.Humoral immunity plays critical roles in SARS-CoV-2 infection and recovery from COVID-19.However,differences in immune responses and clinical features among COVID-19 patients remain largely unknown.Here,we report a database for COVID-19-specific IgG/IgM immune responses and clinical parameters(named COVID-ONE-hi).COVID-ONE-hi is based on the data that contain the IgG/IgM responses to 24 full-length/truncated proteins corresponding to 20 of 28 known SARS-CoV-2 proteins and 199 spike protein peptides against 2360 serum samples collected from 783 COVID-19 patients.In addition,96 clinical parameters for the 2360 serum samples and basic information for the 783 patients are integrated into the database.Furthermore,COVID-ONE-hi provides a dashboard for defining samples and a one-click analysis pipeline for a single group or paired groups.A set of samples of interest is easily defined by adjusting the scale bars of a variety of parameters.After the"START"button is clicked,one can readily obtain a comprehensive analysis report for further interpretation.COVID-ONE-hi is freely available at www.COVID-ONE.cn.

Objective To investigate the effect of the endoscopic surveillance system in irrigating fluid absorption and bleeding during transurethral resection of the prostate.Methods In vitro trials,we simulated the fluid absorption and bleeding in the operation by using self-developed endoscopic surveillance system from January 2013 to June 2013.Continuous irrigation of 5 ％ mannitol solution,we extracted 5 times irrigating fluid (each time 100 ml and a total of 500 ml) in the process of irrigation and recorded absorption measurements of every time extraction rinses.At the same time,we dripped human whole blood 5 times(each time 5 ml and a total of 25 ml) in the process of irrigation and recorded the bleeding measurements.The above process was repeated three times to detect the accuracy and consistency of the endoscopic surveillance system.In clinical trials,50 cases of BPH were monitored in surgery and the biochemical index,hemodynamics,irrigating fluid absorption and bleeding were compared from October 2016 to April 2017.The included criteria contained as follow:the age of patients should be more than 50 years.The transabdominal ultrasound showed that the volume of prostate should be more than 60 ml.The maximal uroflowmetry should be less than 15ml/s.The IPSS scores should be more than 8.Based on the operative time,two groups (＜60 min and ≥ 60 min) were classified.Results We developed the endoscopic surveillance system which is original in the world.In vitro trials,the average irrigating fluid were (100.60 ± 2.07) ml,(201.00±3.39) ml,(302.00±4.67) ml,(403.60±4.39) ml and (502.40 ±7.57) ml;and the average bleeding were (5.06 ± 0.11) ml,(10.10 ± 0.16) ml,(15.04 ± 0.15) ml,(20.06 ± 0.11) ml and (25.10 ± 0.16) ml.No significant difference was observed in all groups (P ＞ 0.05).In clinical trials,we compared some preoperative and postoperative indexes.The average blood oxygen saturation were (94.46 ± 2.49) ％ and (92.39 ± 2.77) ％ (P ＜ 0.01),the average Serum sodium ion concentration were (141.05 ± 2.52) mmol/L and (138.06 ± 4.27) mmol/L(P ＜ 0.01),the average HGB were (143.50 ± 13.43) g/L and (137.04 ± 14.25) g/L(P ＜ 0.01).The average HCT were (42.05 ± 4.09) ％ and (137.04 ± 14.25) ％ (P ＜ 0.01).The average HR were (77.9 ± 7.6) beats per minute and (77.93 ± 6.93) beats per minute (P＞0.05).The MAP were (90.32 ± 9.75) mmHg and (91.07±8.96)mmHg(P＞0.05).The average serum potassium ion concentration were (4.13 ± 0.53) mmol/L and (4.09 ± 0.37) mmol/L (P ＞ 0.05).The average irrigating fluid absorption of the group less than 60 minutes and the group equal or more than 60 minutes were (401.83 ± 279.23) ml and (885.25 ± 367.68) ml (P ＜ 0.01).The average blood loss were (64.10 ±47.47) ml and (158.40 ± 65.22) ml(P ＜0.01).The preoperative and postoperative hemodynamic,blood biochemical and hematology showed difference in our trials.Irrigating fluid absorption and blood loss were positively associated with operation time.Conclusions The endoscopic surveillance system was safety and accuracy.It can offer real-time monitoring data and alarm mechanism for the surgeons that possibly improve operation safety.

OBJECTIVE： To study the effects of ivermectin on the migration and invasion of human gastric cancer cell lines BGC-823 and MGC-803 and its mechanism. METHODS： After treated with 0， 2.5， 5， 10， 20， 40 μmol/L ivermectin for 24 h， inhibitory rate of human gastric cancer cell lines BGC-823 and MGC-803 were detected by MTT assay. Effects of 5 μmol/L ivermectin and phosphate buffercontaining 0.67‰ dimethyl sulfoxide （control group） for 24 h on the migration and invasion of` gastric cancer cells BGC-823 and MGC-803 were observed by Transwell chamber invasion assay.Western blot assay was used to detect the protein expression of TGF-β1， TGF-βR， Smad2 and Smad3 in epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT） markers E-cadherin， N-cadherin， Vimentin， Snail and EMT transduction pathway TGF-β/smad of BGC-823 and MGC-803 cells after treated with 5， 10 μmol/L ivermectin and phosphate buffercontaining 0.67‰ dimethyl sulfoxide （control group） for 24 h. RESULTS： Ivermectin could inhibit the growth of BGC-823 and MGC-803， inhibitory rate of it was positively correlated with its concentration. Compared with control group， the number of migration and invasion BGC-823 and MGC-803 cells were decreased significantly after treated with 5 μmol/L ivermectin （P＜0.01 or P＜0.001）； the expression of E-cadherin protein was enhanced significantly in BGC-823 and MGC-803 cells after treated with 5 and 10 μmol/L ivermectin （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01 or P＜0.001）； the protein expression of N-cadherin， Vimentin， Snail， TGF-βR， Smad2 and Smad3 were decreased significantly （P＜0.05， P＜0.01 or P＜0.001）； protein expression of TGF-β1 was decreased significantly after treated with 10 μmol/L ivermectin （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS： Ivermectin can significantly inhibit the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells BGC-823 and MGC-803， and inhibiting the biological activity of EMT by reducing the expression of TGF-β/smad pathway is one of the mechanisms that inhibit the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of mumps in China from 2004 to 2013. Methods Data of mump cases occurring between 2004 and 2013 were gathered from the national notifiable disease reporting system in China (excluding Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan);only cases classified as“final card”, laboratory confirmed, or clinical diagnosis were included. Descriptive epidemiology techniques were used to analyze features of sex, age, trends over time, and geography. Results Average incidence of mumps between 2004 to 2013 was 24.20/100 000. Peaks were in 2011 and 2012, with incidence 33.9/100 000 (454 385/1.340 million) and 35.6/100 000 (479 518/1.347 million). Two seasonal peaks occurred regularly in years, one from April to July in the first year, and the other from November to January in the next year. During the study period, provinces with the highest incidence were Ningxia, Tibet, Xinjiang, and Guangxi; incidences were 72.1/100 000 (4 425/6.13 million), 48.5/100 000 (1 396/3 million), 51.7/100 000 (10 887/21.04 million), and 40.8/100 000 (19 179/46.99 million), respectively. Guangdong (28 078), Sichuan (21 924), Guangxi (21 616), and Zhejiang (20 000) provinces reported the highest number of mumps cases. Beijing, Tianjin, and Shanghai showed a consistently low incidence. Mumps cases occurred primarily among children aged 5-9 years, with incidence ranging from 118.2/100 000 to 281.4/100 000. In 2004-2008, the peak age was 6-8 years (174.1/100 000) and in 2009-2013, peak age was 5-7 years (234.5/100 000). Conclusion The highest incidences of mumps in China were reported in 2011 and 2012, with children of school age constituting the majority of cases.

OBJECTIVETo study the effect of adenosine preconditioning on cell apoptosis and expressions of glucose-regulated protein (GRP-78) and cysteinyl aspartate-specific protease 12 (caspase-12) in rats with spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury.

METHODSTwenty-seven rats were randomized into 3 equal groups and subjected to sham operation (group A), spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury (group B), or ischemia-reperfusion injury with adenosine treatment. Spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury was induced by cross-clamping of the abdominal aorta inferior to the left renal artery. The spinal cord function was assessed using the Modified Tarlov Scale at 6, 12, and 24 h after reperfusion. At 24 h after reperfusion, histological analysis was carried out with HE staining; cell apoptosis and viability were determined with TUNEL staining, and the expressions of GRP-78 and caspase-12 proteins were determined with Western blotting.

RESULTSHE staining of the spinal cord showed extensive spinal cord injury such as cell edema in group B as compared with group C. Compared with group A, group B showed a significantly increased number of apoptotic cells; the number of apoptotic cells in group B was greater than that in group C. Compared with group B, group C showed significantly increased GRP-78 expression (P<0.01) and decreased caspase-12 expression (P<0.01).

CONCLUSIONAdenosine can up-regulate GRP-78 expression and down-regulate caspase-12 expression, and protects the spinal cord against ischemia-reperfusion injury by inhibiting cell apoptosis.
