Objective To investigate the effects of eicosanoic acid(C20DC)on the proliferation and migration of human retinal endothelial cells(HRECs)and its mechanism.Methods The optimal working concentration of C20DC in human retinal pigment epithelium 19(ARPE-19)cells and HRECs was determined as 30 mg·L-1 and 25 mg·L-1,respec-tively.HRECs were divided into the C20DC treatment group(HRECs treated with C20DC)and the control group[HRECs treated with dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO)].The effects of C20DC on the migration and proliferation of HRECs were detec-ted by cell proliferation and migration experiments.The molecular docking method was used to simulate the binding ability of C20DC to peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor δ(PPARδ).ARPE-19 cells were divided into the C20DC+ARPE-19 group(ARPE-19 cells treated with C20DC)and the DMSO+ARPE-19 group(ARPE-19 cells treated with DMSO).The ex-pression levels of PPARδ and angiopoietin-like protein 4(ANGPTL4)in ARPE-19 cells and ANGPTL4 protein in HRECs were detected using Western blot.The ANGPTL4 protein expression levels in ARPE-19 cells and HRECs were quantitatively analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results Compared with the control group,the prolifera-tion and migration of cells in the C20DC treatment group significantly increased(both P＜0.05),and C20DC could stably bind to PPAR8(binding energy:-7.20 kcal·mol-1).Western blot showed that the expression level of ANGPTL4 protein in the C20DC+ARPE-19 group was higher than that in the DMSO+ARPE-19 group,and the difference was statistically sig-nificant(P＜0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in the expression level of PPARδ receptor protein be-tween the two groups(P＞0.05).The expression level of ANGPTL4 protein in the C20DC treatment group was higher than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).ELISA quantitative analysis showed that the expression level of ANGPTL4 in the C20DC+ARPE-19 group was higher than that in the DMSO+ARPE-19 group(P＜0.001);the expression level of ANGPTL4 in the C20DC treatment group was higher than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion C20DC can promote the expression of ANGPTL4 pro-tein by binding to PPARδ and thus increase the proliferation and migration of retinal related cells(HRECs and ARPE-19 cells).Its mechanism may be related to the increased angiogenesis in retinopathy of prematurity.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To investigate the effect of the Ilizarov technique in the treatment of post-traumatic lower extremity shortening with talipes equinovarus.Methods:Clinical data of patients with post-traumatic lower extremity shortening and talipes equinovarus treated by the Ilizarov technique in the Department of Orthopaedics of Xuzhou Renci Hospital from January 2013 to April 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The annular external fixator was installed on the affected limb according to the Ilizarov principle of external fixation. 3 days after the operation, the internal and lateral screw rods were adjusted at the speed of 2 mm/d to gradually correct the talipes equinovarus. 7 days after surgery, the lower leg was lengthened at a speed of 1 mm/d. After the foot was corrected, the foot external fixator was continued to be worn for 4 to 6 weeks, and then the fixator was removed and the foot was immobilized with a brace for 6 to 8 weeks. The lower leg fixator was removed after the lower extremity length was restored and the bone mineralization at the extension site was good. The length of both lower extremities, angle of talonavicular joint, angle of plantar flexion and dorsal extension of the ankle, and range of motion of ankle were compared before surgery and at the last follow-up. At the last follow-up, the affected feet were scored and rated using the International Clubfoot Study Group (ICFSG) scoring system, which was divided into four grades: excellent, good, medium, and poor. SPSS 25.0 software was used for statistical analysis, and each measurement index and ICFSG score were expressed in Mean±SD. Paired t-test was used to compare the preoperative and last follow-up data, and P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:A total of 31 patients were enrolled, including 17 males and 14 females. The age was 15-18 years old, with an average of 16.5 years old. There were 16 cases on the right side and 15 cases on the left side. The lower extremity shortening was 45-75 mm, with an average of 65 mm. The fixation time of the external fixator was 4.5-6 months after surgery, with an average of 5 months, and the follow-up time was 22-28 months, with an average of 25.5 months. The length of the affected lower extremity recovered, the shape was basically satisfactory, and the plantar gait was restored. At the last follow-up, compared with the preoperative period, the anteroposterior talocalcaneal angle of the foot (23.0°±2.1° vs. 8.5°±2.6°), from lateral talocalcaneal angle the foot (27.0°±4.3° vs. 11.2°±4.4°), ankle plantar flexion angle (24.5°±6.8° vs. 51.1°±6.5°), ankle dorsiflexion angle (5.8°±3.5° vs. -46.8°±7.0°) and ankle range of motion (30.3°±8.2° vs. 4.2°±1.6°) were statistically significant ( P <0.01). ICFSG score: The points at the last follow-up (8.0 ± 4.2) were significantly lower than that before the operation (41.9 ± 5.3) ( P<0.01), of which 18 were excellent, 9 were good, and 4 were medium. Two cases had recurrent deformities in the later stage, and the results were satisfactory after the fusion of the talonavicular joint and calcaneocuboid joint and the anteposition of the posterior tibial tendon in the second stage. There were 4 cases of toe contracture deformity, which did not recur after the release of the flexor digitorum longus tendon at the toe. Anterior ankle impingement was observed in 5 cases and improved after the arthroscopic osteophyte removal. After the lower extremity extension was in place, the external fixator was replaced by the intramedullary nail for walking in 6 patients. The infection of the nail path occurred in 7 cases, which improved after replacement of fixing pins and dressing change of the nail path. Conclusion:The application of the Ilizarov technique in the treatment of post-traumatic lower extremity shortening with talipes equinovarus has the advantages of small trauma and dynamic control of deformity correction, which can achieve good result.

Objective: To compare the MRI features of peliosis hepatis and hepatic metastases following chemotherapy for gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma with the aim to improve the differential diagnosis. Methods: The clinical data of 33 patients with gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma treated from June 2014 to December 2017 at Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University were retrospectively analyzed. Of the 26 males and 7 females aged (56.0±9.8) years, there were 11 patients with peliosis hepatis and 22 patients with hepatic metastases following chemotherapy in these patients. All patients underwent contrast-enhanced abdominal MRI scans. The differences in the MRI features, including morphology, margin, signal intensity on plain scanning and enhancement patterns were compared statistically. The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of peliosis hepatis, hepatic metastases and adjacent hepatic parenchyma were measured in an ADC map. Results: In 14 lesions of the 11 patients with peliosis hepatis, 10 lesions were ill-defined and 4 lesions were well-defined. In 31 lesions of the 22 patients with hepatic metastases, 5 lesions were ill-defined and 26 lesions were well-defined. Significant differences existed between peliosis hepatis and hepatic metastases in the margin (P<0.05). The ADC value of hepatic metastases was significantly lower than that of peliosis hepatis and the adjacent hepatic parenchyma (P<0.05). In all the 14 lesions of peliosis hepatis, 10 lesions showed gradual filling enhancement, and 4 lesions showed marked and persistent enhancement. In all the 31 lesions of hepatic metastases, 28 lesions showed a ring-shaped enhancement, and 3 lesions showed "quick in and quick out" enhancement. Conclusions The lesions of peliosis hepatis following chemotherapy for gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma were ill-defined, with no restriction of water diffusion in the diffusion weighted imagings, and with progressive enhancement. The MRI manifestations of peliosis hepatis helped to differentiate peliosis hepatis from hepatic metastases of gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma.

Objective To observe the inhibitory effect of lentiviral vector miR-191 (LV-191) on retinal neovascularization (RNV) in mice model of oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR).Methods Eighty healthy 7-day-old C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into 5 groups including normal group, non-intervention group, normal saline (NS) group, LV-191 group and LV-green fluorescent protein (GFP) group, 16 mice in each group. The OIR model was established in the non-intervention group, NS group, LV-191 group and LV-GFP group. NS group, LV-191 group and LV-GFP group were given an intravitreal injection of 1 μl of NS, LV-191 and LV-GFP at the age of 12 days. No injection was performed in the non-intervention group. In normal group,newborn mouse were maintained in room air form P0 to P17, and no treatment was performed. Mice in all five groups were euthanized at P17. Retinal neovasculation (RNV) was evaluated by counting the number of pre-retinal neovascular cells and analysis of non-perfusion area area by immunofluorescent staining of the mouse retina. Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-PCR) to detect miR -191 and P21 expression of retinal tissue.Results In the LV-191 group, the non-perfusion area were both significantly smaller than those in non-intervention group, NS group and LV-GFP group (F=127.20,P<0.001). The number of pre-retinal neovascular cell nuclei in retinas from LV-191 group were obviously lower than those in the retinas from non-intervention group, NS group and LV-GFP group (F=31.71,P<0.05). RT-PCR showed that the LV-191 and P21 level of LV-191 group increased significantly than other groups (F=10.95, 15.60;P<0.05).Conclusion Intravitreal injection of LV-191 inhibits RNV in mice model of OIR possibly through up-regulating p21.

Objective To explore the safer and more reasonable time of withdrawing nucleoside analogues antiviral therapy in women with chronic HBV infection during immune tolerance period. Methods The patients included in this study were 343 pregnant women with chronic HBV infection who received nucleoside antiviral therapy in Obstetrics and Gynecology Center of 302 Military Hospital of China. According to the time of withdrawing antiviral therapy after delivery, the patients were assigned to P0 group, i.e., withdrawal immediately after delivery, and the patients who stopped the drug 6 weeks after delivery were assigned to P6w group. The patients were compared between these two groups in terms of prevalence of ALT abnormality during pregnancy and postpartum, the peak value and occurrence time of postpartum ALT, and mother-to-child vertical transmission. Results The prevalence of postpartum ALT abnormality was 30.2％ in P0 group and 20.7％ in P6w group (χ2=4.129, P=0.046). Specifically, for the patients with abnormal liver function during pregnancy, the prevalence of postpartum ALT abnormality was 88.0％ and 39.4％ in the two groups respectively (χ2=14.043, P=0.001). While for the patients with normal liver function during pregnancy, the prevalence of postpartum ALT abnormality was 19.4％ and 16.6％ respectively (χ2=0.392, P=0.531). Mother-to-infant HBV transmission was blocked successfully in all the patients in spite of the time of withdrawing antiviral therapy. Conclusions For the pregnant women with chronic HBV infection who received oral nucleoside analogue antiviral agents to interrupt motherto-child transmission, the time of withdrawing antiviral agents did not show significant effect on the prevalence of postpartum liver function abnormality and rate of successful blocking mother-toinfant HBV transmission. However, for the patients with abnormal ALT during pregnancy, it is appropriate to continue the nucleoside analogue antiviral therapy after delivery.

Objective To investigate the effects of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs ) on vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF ) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 ( MCP-1 ) of acute myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (AMI-R) injury in rats. Methods 24 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham group, AMI-R group and UCMSCs treatment groups on average. The rats were sacrificed on the 10th day after UCMSCs transplantation, and the myocardial tissues below the ligature were taken. The mRNA and protein expressions of MCP-1 of the tissue were detected by RT-PCR and Western Blot respectively, and the expression of VEGF protein was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results The relative expression levels of MCP-1 mRNA and the protein in UCMSCs group were significantly lower than those in sham group and AMI-R group (all P<0.05). The expression of VEGF protein in UCMSCs group was significantly higher than that in sham group and AMI-R group, the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). Conclusion UCMSCs transplantation can promote the angiogenesis and decrease the inflammation reaction in the treatment of acute myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Objective To introduce a novel femoral distractor which is applied in close reduction and internal fixation (CRIF) with antegrade intramedullary nail for femoral shaft fractures.Methods From September 2010 to March 2015,85 patients with femoral shaft fracture were treated by CRIF with antegrade intramedullary nail in which our self-designed novel distractor was used.They were 64 males and 21 females,with an average age of 36.6 years.By AO classification,we had 32 cases of type 32-A,40 cases of type 32-B,and 13 cases of type 32-C.The intervals between injury and surgery averaged 7.5 days (range,from 1 to 16 days).The fracture was located at the upper shaft in 26 cases,at the middle shaft in 57 cases,at the middle shaft and ipsilateral neck in one,and at the lower shaft and ipsilateral intertrochanteric site in one.Their operation time,intraoperative blood loss,intra-and post-operative complications,and fracture union time were recorded and analyzed.Results Successful close reduction was achieved in all the 85 patients with no iatrogenic injury to major vessels or nerves.Operation time averaged 105.5 minutes;time for X-ray exposure averaged 25.8 seconds;intraoperative blood loss averaged 209.2 mL.The 85 patients received follow-ups from 8 to 24 months (mean,16.3 months).Fracture union was achieved in 83 cases after an average duration of 7.8 weeks (range,from 4 to 12 weeks),but nonunion occurred in 2 cases.One-year follow-ups revealed recovery of normal function of the affected knee in all,with no limb shortening ＞ 10 mm,rotational angulation ＞ 15°,or lateral or anteroposterior angulation ＞ 10°.No incision infection,deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism happened during the entire follow-up.Conclusion Our self-designed novel distractor can facilitate CRIF with antegrade intramedullary nail for femoral shaft fractures,and avoid the complications and inconvenience associated with a traction table.
