Objective:
To analyze the trajectories of blood pressure and body mass index (BMI) among primary and secondary school students aged 7-17 in Shunyi District of Beijing, and to explore the association between different growth trajectories and visual outcomes, so as to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of common diseases in children and adolescents.
Methods:
Health examination data (including vision, blood pressure and BMI) of primary and secondary school students in Shunyi District of Beijing from 2019 to 2023 were collected and analyzed. Group based trajectory modeling was used to classify the trajectories of BMI and blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) into distinct groups among students aged 7-17 years. The relationship between these trajectories and visual outcomes was examined using binary Logistic regression analysis.
Results:
The prevalence of screening myopia among students in Shunyi District was 57.2%, while the rate of moderate to severe visual impairment was 55.8%. Based on the latent growth model, the trajectories of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and BMI were divided into three groups:low growth trajectory, moderate growth trajectory and high maintenance trajectory. Logistic regression analysis revealed that, compared to the low growth trajectory group, the moderate growth and high maintenance trajectory groups for systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and BMI were associated with an increased risk of screening myopia ( OR =1.14, 1.11; 1.07, 1.19 ; 1.06, 1.08, P <0.05). Similarly, the moderate growth and high maintenance trajectory groups for systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and BMI were similarly associated with an increased risk of moderate to severe visual impairment ( OR = 1.12 , 1.12; 1.09, 1.17; 1.08, 1.11, P <0.05).
Conclusions
Moderate growth and high maintenance trajectories of blood pressure and BMI are associated with an increased risk of screening myopia and moderate to severe visual impairment among students. It is recommended to closely monitor changes in blood pressure and overweight/obesity trajectories in primary and secondary school students, conduct regular assessments, and actively prevent the development and progression of multimorbidity and comorbidity.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of three-connections and four-screwings technique in the treatment of high double column acetabular fractures through a single ilioinguinal approach.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the data of 42 patients who had been treated for high double column acetabular fractures from June 2017 to June 2020 at Trauma Ward 2, Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, The First Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Changde. There were 19 males and 23 females with an age of (42.7±25.6) years. 29 injuries were due to a traffic accident, 12 ones to fall from a height, and one to fall. The time from injury to operation was (4.5±2.1) days. All the patients were treated by the three-connections and four-screwings technique through a single ilioinguinal approach. Briefly, the anterior column was connected and secured to the main bone using 3 routes, and the posterior column was attached and fixated to the anterior column reset using 2 or 3 of the 4 screwings. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, fracture reduction quality, fracture healing time, hip function at the last follow-up and complications during the follow-up were recorded.Results:For this cohort, the operation time was (150.0±30.5) min, and intraoperative blood loss (300.0±50.0) mL. According to the Matta scale for postoperative acetabular fracture reduction, 34 cases were excellent, 6 cases good, and 2 cases acceptable, with an excellent and good rate of 95.2% (40/42). After operation one patient had fat liquefaction and wound exudation which responded to drainage and dressing change. The 42 patients were followed up for (15.0±3.4) months. All fractures healed after (11.0±2.0) months. By the modified Merle d'Aubigné & Postel scoring system, the hip function was evaluated at the last follow-up as excellent in 33 cases, as good in 6 cases, and as fair in 3 cases, yielding an excellent and good rate of 92.9% (39/42).Conclusions:In the treatment of high double column acetabular fractures, the three-connections and four-screwings technique through a single ilioinguinal approach can lead to fine reduction and rigid fixation by lag screw compression and neutralization plate protection. Consequently, early functional exercises can be performed to secure good therapeutic outcomes for the patients.

Objective:To analyze the clinical efficacy of internal fixation and prosthesis revision in the treatment of periprosthesis fracture after total knee arthroplasty.Methods:A total of 35 patients (35 knees) with periprosthetic fractures after total knee arthroplasty were retrospectively analyzed from January 2008 to January 2022 in the Department of Orthopaedics, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, including 13 males and 22 females, aged 71.4±4.1 years (range, 62-81 years). Left knee 19 cases, right knee 16 cases. There were 20 cases of Rorabeck type II and 15 cases of Rorabeck type III. The initial replacement was performed using a fixed platform post-stabilized knee prosthesis, which was fixed with bone cement. Patients with Rorabeck type II were treated with internal fixation alone (internal fixation group) and patients with Rorabeck type III underwent revision with replacement prosthesis (revision group). The Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score, range of motion (ROM) of knee joint, alignment of lower extremity and incidence of postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.Results:All patients successfully completed the operation and were followed up for 5.2±3.6 years (range, 1-12 years). Intraoperative blood loss was 680±102 ml (range, 420-1100 ml). The operative time in the internal fixation group was 105±17 min, which was less than 140±21 min in the revision group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-5.450, P<0.001). There was no complication of nerve or blood vessel injury during the operation. Five cases in the internal fixation group had unsatisfactory lower extremity force lines (>3° deviation from normal) after surgery, and all lower extremity force lines in the revision group were satisfied, and the difference in the satisfaction rate of lower extremity force lines between the two groups was not statistically significant ( P=0.057). The fracture healing time, knee ROM and HSS scores at the last follow-up were 5.1±1.3 months, 86°±5° and 84±5 in the internal fixation group and 4.8±1.5 months, 83°±6° and 82±4 in the revision group. One case in the revision group was diagnosed postoperatively with periprosthetic infection with pathogen culture suggestive of Candida albicans, recurrent anterior knee sinus tracts and patellar ectasia, which progressed to osteomyelitis, and mid-thigh amputation was performed 1 year after revision. Conclusion:The stability of prosthesis is an important reference for the treatment of periprosthetic fractures after total knee arthroplasty. Strong internal fixation in patients with unloosened prosthesis and revision with replacement of prosthesis in patients with loose prosthesis can achieve good knee joint function.

The clinical practice guidelines of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) have problems such as limited clinical application and unclear implementation effects, which may be related to the lack of clinical practice evidence. To provide reliable and precise evidence for clinical practice, this article proposes a model of combining TCM guidelines with real-world study, which includes 4 steps. Firstly, during the implementation process of the guidelines, a high-quality research database is established. Secondly, the recommendations in the guidelines are evaluated based on the established database in multiple dimensions, including applicability, effectiveness, safety, and cost-effectiveness, and thus their effectiveness in practical applications can be determined. Thirdly, based on the established database, core prescriptions are identified, and the targeted populations and medication plans are determined. That is, the best treatment regimen is established based on the analysis of abundant clinical data regarding the effects of different medication frequencies, dosages, and duration on efficacy. Fourthly, the guidelines are updated according to the real-world evidence. The research based on this model can provide real-world evidence for ancient and empirical prescriptions, improving their application in clinical practice. Moreover, this model can reduce research costs and improve research efficiency. When applying this model, researchers need to pay attention to the quality of real-world evidence, ensuring that it can truly reflect the situation in clinical practice. In addition, importance should be attached to the clinical application of guideline recommendations, ensuring that doctors can conduct standardized diagnosis and treatment according to the guidelines. Finally, full-process participation of multidisciplinary experts is encouraged to ensure the comprehensiveness and scientificity of the study. In conclusion, the application of this model will contribute to the development of TCM guidelines responsive to the needs of clinical practice and achieve the goal of promoting the homogenization of TCM clinical diagnosis and treatment.

As a supplement to randomized controlled trials, observational studies can provide evidence for the effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment measures. They can also study influencing factors of diseases, etiology, and prognosis. However, there is a confounding effect due to the lack of randomization, which seriously affects the causal inference between the study factors and the outcome, resulting in confounding bias. Therefore, identifying and controlling confounding factors are key issues to be addressed in TCM observational studies. According to the causal network and the characteristics of TCM theory, confounding factors can be categorized into measured and unmeasured confounding factors. In addition, attention must be paid to identifying confounding factors and intermediate variables, as well as the interaction between confounding factors and study factors. For methods of controlling confounding factors, measured confounding factors can be controlled by stratification, multifactor analysis, propensity scores, and disease risk scores. Unmeasured and unknown confounding factors can be corrected using instrumental variable methods, difference-in-difference methods, and correction for underlying event rate ratios. Correcting and controlling confounding factors can ensure a balance between groups, and confounding bias can be reduced. In addition, methods such as sensitivity analysis and determination of interactions make the control of confounding factors more comprehensive. Due to the unique characteristics of TCM, observational studies of TCM face unique challenges in identifying and controlling confounding factors, including the ever-changing TCM treatment measures received by patients, the often-overlooked confounding effects in the four diagnostic information of TCM, and the lack of objective criteria for TCM evidence-based diagnosis. Some scholars have already conducted innovative explorations to address these issues, providing a methodological basis for conducting higher-quality TCM observational studies, so as to obtain more rigorous real-world evidence of TCM and gradually develop quality evaluation criteria for OS that are consistent with the characteristics of TCM.

The classification of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes is one of the core technical elements in the industry standard of Specification of Diagnosis and Therapeutic Effect Evaluation of Diseases and Syndromes in TCM. In the past,when clinical standards for TCM were formulated,the determination of TCM syndrome classification relied heavily on textbooks and expert experience,lacking systematic research. This approach thus failed to reflect the advancement and scientificity of the standards,thereby affecting their implementation and application. This article reviewed the presentation forms and technical methods of TCM syndrome classification,including the two-tier syndrome classification model with primary and secondary symptoms,as well as the application of modern literature research,ancient literature research,Delphi method,in-depth expert interviews,consensus conferences,and real-world research. When syndrome classification standards are developed,it is necessary to build upon modern literature research,adopt a mixed approach combining qualitative research and quantitative analysis results,and reach expert consensus through consensus conferences. Through systematic research,the scientificity,applicability,and coordination of TCM syndrome classification standards can be enhanced,providing guidance for the standardization of TCM.

Objective To investigate the levels and variations of radon concentration in Wuhan subway and to provide data support for ensuring public radiation safety. Methods The typical sampling method was used to select 18 stations from Wuhan Metro Line 2, Line 3, and Line 7 for the measurement and evaluation of radon in the air. Using RAD7 electronic radon detector and continuous radon measurement method, radon concentrations in station platforms and station halls were investigated. Analysis of variance and t test were used for statistical analysis. Results The concentration of radon in Wuhan subway ranged from 8.8 to 16.2 Bq/m3, with an average of 11.5 Bq/m3, which is far lower than the limit set by Requirements for Radiological Protection for Radon in Public Underground Structure and Using Geothermal Water (WS/T 668-2019). There was no significant difference in radon concentration between station platform and station hall (t = −0.081, P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in radon concentration between different lines (F = 0.338, P > 0.05). On the whole, the radon concentration in summer was lower than that in winter, and there was no significant difference between months (F = 1.280, P > 0.05). Conclusion The radon concentrations in Wuhan subway result in low-dose radiation, and there is no significant health risk of radon exposure.
