OBJECTIVE To investigate the inhibitory effect and mechanism of lead(Pb2+)on γ-amino-butyric acid(GABA)A receptor-mediated currents(IGABA)and GABAergic synaptic transmission in rat cortical neurons.METHODS ①The cortical neurons from 0 d Sprague Dawley(SD)rats were cultured for experiments.The cultured cells(7-14 d)were recorded using the patch-clamp technique to analyze the effects of Pb2+ at different concentrations(1,5,10,50 and 100 μmol·L-1)on IGABA induced by GABA 100 μmol·L-1.② The effects of Pb2+ 50 μmol·L-1 on IGABA induced by GABA at different concentrations(1,10,50,100,500 and 100 μmol·L-1)were detected.③Brain slices(350 μm)were prepared from SD rats(15-19 d).The spontaneous inhibitory post-synaptic currents(sIPSCs),miniature inhibitory post-synaptic currents(mIPSCs)and current injection-induced action potential(AP)were recorded to detect the effects of Pb2+ 10 μmol·L-1 on the amplitude and frequency of sIPSCs and mIPSCs,and the frequency of AP.RESULTS ①Pb2+ inhibited IGABA in a concentration-dependent manner,and IC50 was(68±20)μmol·L-1.②Pb2+ also suppressed the maximum current induced by GABA(P<0.01),with a significant increase of the GABA′s EC50 from(20±6)μmol·L-1 to(87±39)μmol·L-1,indicating that Pb2+ might inhibit IGABA in a non-competitive mechanism.③Pb2+ 10 μmol·L-1 inhibited the frequency(P<0.01)rather than the ampli-tude of sIPSCs reversibly,but had no effect on eigher the frequency or amplitude of mIPSCs.In addi-tion,Pb2+ decreased the frequency of evoked AP by current injection(P<0.01)and reduced the overall excitability of rat cortical neurons.CONCLUSION Pb2+ can significantly inhibit IGABA in primary cultured neurons.In the brain slice experiment,Pb2+ may affect sIPSCs frequency by inhibiting the AP of cortical neurons,suggesting that there are different intrinsic mechanisms through which Pb2+ inhibits both IGABA in primary cultured neurons and the frequency of sIPSCs in brain slice neurons,which points to the complexity of the mechanism of Pb2+ poisoning.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of postoperative complications in patients with spinal tuberculosis and analyze the value of prognostic nutritional index(PNI)in predicting these complications.Methods The clinical data of 156 patients with spinal tuberculosis who underwent surgery in the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University from January 2018 to July 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into a complication group and a non-complication group based on the presence or absence of postoperative complications.Baseline data,laboratory indicators,and surgery-related indicators were compared between the two groups.The risk factors for postoperative complications in spinal tuberculosis were analyzed,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were plotted to evaluate the predictive value of PNI for postoperative complications in the patients.Results Among all of 156 patients,68 contracted a total of 82 instances of postoperative complications,with an incidence of 43.59%.Coinfection with pulmonary tuberculosis,preoperative anti-tuberculosis treatment duration more than 4 weeks,surgical operation duration,and drainage days were identified as independent risk factors for postoperative complications in spinal tuberculosis(P<0.05).On the other hand,a higher PNI was found to be a protective factor against postoperative complications of the spinal tuberculosis(P<0.05).The area under the ROC curve for PNI predicting postoperative complications ofthe spinal tuberculosis was 0.805.Conclusion The risk of postoperative complications in patients with spinal tuberculosis is subject to such factors ascoexistence of pulmo-nary tuberculosis,preoperative anti-tuberculosis treatment duration,surgery duration,drainage duration,and preoperative PNI.Preoperative PNI has a certain value for predicting the postoperative complications in the patients.

BACKGROUND:
Although intensively studied in patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), the prognostic value of diastolic blood pressure (DBP) has little been elucidated in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD). This study aimed to reveal the prognostic value of DBP in AECOPD patients.
METHODS:
Inpatients with AECOPD were prospectively enrolled from 10 medical centers in China between September 2017 and July 2021. DBP was measured on admission. The primary outcome was all-cause in-hospital mortality; invasive mechanical ventilation and intensive care unit (ICU) admission were secondary outcomes. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and multivariable Cox regressions were used to identify independent prognostic factors and calculate the hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for adverse outcomes.
RESULTS:
Among 13,633 included patients with AECOPD, 197 (1.45%) died during their hospital stay. Multivariable Cox regression analysis showed that low DBP on admission (<70 mmHg) was associated with increased risk of in-hospital mortality (HR = 2.16, 95% CI: 1.53-3.05, Z = 4.37, P <0.01), invasive mechanical ventilation (HR = 1.65, 95% CI: 1.32-2.05, Z = 19.67, P <0.01), and ICU admission (HR = 1.45, 95% CI: 1.24-1.69, Z = 22.08, P <0.01) in the overall cohort. Similar findings were observed in subgroups with or without CVDs, except for invasive mechanical ventilation in the subgroup with CVDs. When DBP was further categorized in 5-mmHg increments from <50 mmHg to ≥100 mmHg, and 75 to <80 mmHg was taken as reference, HRs for in-hospital mortality increased almost linearly with decreased DBP in the overall cohort and subgroups of patients with CVDs; higher DBP was not associated with the risk of in-hospital mortality.
CONCLUSION:
Low on-admission DBP, particularly <70 mmHg, was associated with an increased risk of adverse outcomes among inpatients with AECOPD, with or without CVDs, which may serve as a convenient predictor of poor prognosis in these patients.

The follow-up was performed once every 6?12 months within postoperative 2?5 years including above reexaminations. Electronic colonoscopy was performed once a year after operation. The follow-up was up to November 12, 2021. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distuibution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the rank sum test. Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rates and draw survival curves, and Log-Rank test was used to conduct survival analysis. Results:(1) Clinicopathological features of patients with synchronous colorectal liver metastasis in 2000?2010 and 2011?2021. Of the 346 patients, 59 cases underwent simultaneous resection within 2000?2010 and 287 cases underwent simultaneous resection within 2011?2021. The gender (males and females), cases with or without fundamental diseases, cases with the number of lymph nodes harvested in primary lesion as <12 or ≥12, the tumor diameter of primary lesion, the tumor diameter of liver metastasis lesion, the number of liver metastasis lesions, cases with or without preoperative treatment, cases with or without postoperative treatment, cases with adjuvant therapy as perioperative treatment, surgery or other treatment were 47, 12, 36, 23, 19, 40, (5.5±2.4)cm, (2.1±0.7)cm, 1.6±0.5, 59, 0, 16, 16, 0, 16, 43 in patients admitted in 2000?2010, respectively.

Cases with surgical methods as complete open surgery or laparoscopy combined with open surgery, the operation time, time to postoperative initial liquid food intake, cases with or without postoperative complications, cases with postoperative duration of hospital stay as ≤10 days or >10 days were 58, 1, (281±57)minutes, (5±1)days, 33, 26, 14, 45 in patients admitted in 2000?2010, respec-tively. The above indicators in patients admitted in 2011?2021 were 140, 147, (261±82)minutes, (3±1)days, 233, 54, 198, 89, respectively. There were significant differences in the above indicators between patients admitted in 2000?2010 and 2011?2021 ( χ2=49.04, t=2.24, 7.53, χ2=17.56, 26.02, P<0.05). There was no death in the 346 patients. (3) Analysis of prognosis of patients with synchro-nous colorectal liver metastasis in 2000?2010 and 2011?2021. Of the 346 patients, 295 cases were followed up for 47(range, 1?108)months. Of the 29 patients admitted in 2000?2010 who were followed up, there were 27 cases died. The median survival time, 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rates, 1-, 3-, 5-year disease free survival rates of patients admitted in 2000?2010 were 18.0 months (95% confidence interval as 12.7?23.3 months), 82.8%, 11.5%, 3.8%, 53.6%, 8.3%, 4.2%, respec-tively. Of the 266 patients admitted in 2011?2021 who were followed up, there were 109 cases died. The median survival time, 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rates, 1-, 3-, 5-year disease free survival rates of patients admitted in 2011?2021 were 54.0 months (95% confidence interval as 38.1?70.4 months), 93.3%, 61.8%, 47.0%, 68.2%, 33.7%, 28.3%, respectively. There were significant differences in overall survival rate and disease free survival rate between patients admitted in 2000?2010 and 2011?2021 ( χ2=47.57, 9.17, P<0.05). Conclusions:With the increase of the operation volume of simultaneous resection of synchronous colorectal liver metastasis, the operation time, time to postoperative initial liquid food intake, postoperative duration of hospital stay and postoperative complications have significantly decreased, while the overall survival rate and disease free survival rate have significantly increased.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics in patients with persistent positive pharyngeal swab of 2019 novel coronavirus Omicron variant and results of nucleic acid testing of anal swabs to provide basis for prevention and control measures.Methods:This study included 93 patients whose pharyngeal swab nucleic acid test were persistent positive and admitted to the ward of Daping Hospital in the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) Makeshift Hospital from May 1 to May 24, 2022. The gender, age, underlying diseases, vaccination status, clinical symptoms, interval between infection onset and anal sampling, length of hospital stay, the nucleic acid test result of pharyngeal swabs and anal swabs and the time turning negative were collected and analyzed.Results:The age of 93 patients ranged from 8 to 72 years old with a median of (46.0±16.0) years old. Among them, 30 cases (32.3%) were male and 63 cases (67.7%) were female. Sixty-five patients (69.9%) received 2-3 shots of vaccine, 2 patients (2.1%) received 1 shot, and 26 patients (28.0%) did not receive any vaccination. Twenty patients (21.5%) had underlying diseases, of which hypertension (13 cases, 14.0%) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (6 cases, 6.5%) were the most common. Twenty-four patients (25.8%) had asymptomatic infection and the rest (69 cases, 74.2%) had mild symptoms. Cough (50 cases, 53.8%) and sore throat (28 cases, 30.1%) were the most common clinical manifestations of the upper respiratory tract in these patients. Only 6 patients (6.5%) had gastrointestinal symptoms (including diarrhea in 5 patients and diarrhea with vomiting in 1 patient). Pharyngeal and anal swabs were collected simultaneously from all 93 patients at 8-16th days [(11.55±2.27) days] after 2019 novel coronavirus Omicron variant infection. The pharyngeal swabs were positive in 79 patients (85.0%) and the anal swabs were positive in 5 patients (5.4%). The time of pharyngeal swabs turning negative was (14.7±2.9) days, and that of anal swab turning positive was (14.2±1.9) days. The median length of hospital stay was (16.7±2.9) days.Conclusions:In patients with persistent positive nucleic acid of the 2019 novel coronavirus Omicron variant, there were more mild infection than asymptomatic. The upper respiratory tract symptoms such as cough and sore throat were the most. The likelihood of transmission of 2019 novel coronavirus Omicron variant through the digestive tract may be low. The correlation between gastrointestinal symptoms and 2019 novel coronavirus Omicron variant RNA in the digestive tract is uncertain.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical results of miniplates combined with reconstruction plate in treating comminuted posterior wall acetabular fractures.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted for 27 patients with comminuted posterior wall acetabular fractures treated in General Hospital of Central Theatre Command of PLA from October 2015 to June 2019. There were 18 males and 9 females, at age of 23-61 years[(45.9±10.9)years]. All patients were treated by using miniplates combined with the reconstruction plate. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative blood transfusion, length of hospital stay and time of fracture healing were recorded. The reduction quality was evaluated according to Matta radiographic standard at 2 days postoperatively. The modified Merle D'Aubigné-Postel score was adopted to evaluate the hip function at 3, 6 months postoperatively and the final follow-up. Postoperative complications were observed, and heterotopic ossification was assessed by Brooker grading standard.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-48 months[36(24, 36)months]. The operation time was 123-242 minutes[(165.4±29.8)minutes]; the intraoperative blood loss was 170-550 ml[(358.3±111.3)ml]; nine patients required intraoperative blood transfusion of 300-500 ml[(377.8±66.7)ml]. The length of hospital stay was 12-29 days[(21.4±4.7)days]. The fracture healing time was 12-24 weeks[(16.3±3.0)weeks]. According to Matta radiographic standard, the reduction quality was excellent in 21 patients, good in 3 and poor in 3 at 2 days postoperatively, with the excellent rate of 89%. The modified Merle D'Aubigné-Postel score was 9-16 points[(13.1±1.9)points]at 3 months postoperatively, was 10-18 points[(15.4±2.0)points]at 6 months postoperatively, and was 12-18 points[(16.9±1.8)points]at last follow-up( P<0.01). The modified Merle D'Aubigné-Postel score between 3 months and 6 months was significantly different( P<0.01), and the difference between 6 months and the follow-up was statistically significant( P<0.01). The modified Merle D'Aubigné-Postel score was graded as excellent in 0 patient, good in 7, fair in 11 and poor in 9 at 3 months postoperatively, with the excellent rate of 26%; graded as excellent in 3 patients, good in 19, fair in 2 and poor in 3 at 6 months postoperatively, with the excellent rate of 81%; graded as excellent in 18 patients, good in 5, fair in 3 and poor in 1 at the last follow-up, with the excellent rate of 85%( P<0.01). No iatrogenic sciatic nerve injury, deep vein thrombosis or wound infection occurred after operation. No hardware loosening or loss of reduction occurred during the follow-up. The post-traumatic arthritis was identified in 2 patients. The avascular necrosis of femoral head was observed in 1 patient and thereafter underwent total hip replacement. The heterotopic ossification occurred in 3 patients, among which 2 patients were graded as Brooker class I and 1 as class II, but there was no adverse effect on hip function. Conclusions:Miniplates combined with reconstruction plate in the treatment of comminuted posterior wall acetabular fractures have reliable fixation effect and attain good reduction, high fracture healing rate, less complications and satisfactory functional recovery.

Objective:To compare the effect of interlocking intramedullary nail and locking plate in the treatment of varus proximal humeral fractures in the elderly.Method:A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 46 elderly patients with varus proximal humeral fractures treated in Central Theater General Hospital of PLA from June 2016 to January 2019, including 27 males and 19 females, at age of 60-84 years[(71.9±5.7)years]. All fractures were fresh. Overall 25 patients were treated with interlocking intramedullary nail(intramedullary nail group), and 21 patients were treated with locking plate(bone plate group). The incision length, operation time, intraoperative bleeding and fracture healing time were compared between the two groups. Visual analogue scale(VAS)was used to evaluate the degree of pain relief at 1 week and 1 month after operation, and Constant-Murley score was used to evaluate the recovery of shoulder function at 1 month, 3 months and 1 year after operation. The cervical trunk angle was recorded at 2 days and 1 year after operation to judge whether there was a loss of cervical trunk angle. Postoperative complications were observed.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-32 months[(19.7±6.6)months]. The incision length[(7.1±0.6)cm], operation time[(60.8±5.2)minutes], intraoperative bleeding[(64.4±8.4)ml]and fracture healing time[(10.0±1.0)weeks]in intramedullary nail group were significantly less than those in bone plate group[(13.6±0.9)cm,(80.2±8.1)minutes,(151.0±15.2)ml,(11.0±1.5)weeks]( P<0.05). In both groups, the VAS decreased significantly over time, and markedly increased Constant-Murley score was detected as well( P<0.05). The VAS in intramedullary nail group[(2.8±0.2)points,(1.1±0.2)points]was significantly lower than that in bone plate group[(4.0±0.2)points,(1.5±0.1)points]at 1 week and 1 month after operation( P<0.05). The Constant-Murley score in intramedullary nail group[(59.9±6.9)points,(79.1±6.8)points]was higher than that in bone plate group[(50.1±8.5)points,(73.6±8.4)points]at 1 month and 3 months after operation( P<0.05), but the score showed no significant difference between intramedullary nail group[(89.1±5.3)points]and bone plate group[(86.4±6.4)points]at 1 year after operation( P>0.05). According to Constant-Murley score, 10 patients were evaluated as excellent and 15 patients as good in intramedullary nail group at 1 year after operation, with the excellent and good rate of 100%, while 8 patients were evaluated as excellent, 11 patients as good and 2 patients as fair in bone plate group at 1 year after operation, with the excellent and good rate of 91%( P>0.05). The cervical trunk angle in intramedullary nail group[(140.2±2.9)°,(139.6±2.3)°]had significant difference from that in bone plate group[(139.6±3.2)°,(138.8±3.3)°]at 2 days and 1 year after operation( P<0.05). In both groups, the cervical trunk angle had slight lost at 1 year after operation compared with that at 2 days after operation, but the difference was not statistically significant( P>0.05). In intramedullary nail group, 1 patient had subacromial impact. In bone plate group, 1 patient had screw cutting, 2 patients subacromial impact, and 2 patients delayed fracture healing. The incidence of complications in intramedullary nail group was 4%(1/25), lower than 24%(5/21)in bone plate group( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with locking nail plate, interlocking intramedullary nail in the treatment of senile varus proximal humeral fracture has the advantages of small trauma, early fracture healing, less pain, early function recovery and less complications.

Objective:To introduce the standard screw implantation methods and to analyze the biomechanical stability of the second-generation dynamic anterior plate-screw system for quadrilateral area (DAPSQ).Methods:Six adult formalin-preserved corpses were selected to make a complete pelvic specimen. Further, the left high double-column fracture models were made and randomly fixed with second-generation DAPSQ or anterior reconstruction titanium plate and 1/3 tube buttress-plate (ARTPB). The specimens of intact pelvis (IP) group, DAPSQ group and ARTPB group were fixed on a Zwick Z100 material machine and loaded vertically with 200 N, 300 N, 400 N, 500 N, 600 N, 700 N, and 800 N in a simulated sitting position, respectively. The axial displacement and strain changes in the anterior and posterior columns were tested in the three groups. The stiffness was calculated accordingly.Results:The axial compression displacement in the three groups showed an increase trend as well with the vertical load increased from 200 N to 800 N ( F=68.581, P<0.001; F=91.795, P<0.001; F=33.819, P=0.002). The axial displacement in ARTPB group was significantly larger than that in DAPSQ group and IP group ( P<0.05), while the difference between DAPSQ and IP groups was not significant ( P>0.05). Under the vertical load of 600 N, the pelvic axial stiffness of IP group, DAPSQ group, and ARTPB group were 220.72±70.33 N/mm, 185.68±48.49 N/mm and 135.83±60.58 N/mm, respectively. The axial stiffness of ARTPB group was significantly lower than that in DAPSQ group and IP group ( t=5.345, P=0.003; t=6.443, P=0.001), while the difference between DAPSQ and IP groups was not significant ( t=2.138, P=0.086). There were no significant differences of the strain values in anterior column among the three groups during the load increasing from 200 N to 800 N ( P>0.05). With the load increasing from 500 N to 800 N, the strain values of the posterior column in ARTPB group were significantly greater than those of IP and DAPSQ groups ( P<0.05). However, the differences between IP and DAPSQ groups were not statistically significant in strain values of the posterior column ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with anterior reconstruction titanium plate and 1/3 tube buttress-plate, acetabular double-column fracture model fixed with the second-generation DAPSQ has less axial compression displacement but with greater axial stiffness. The stress change in the posterior columns of the acetabulum is like in IP. Therefore, the second-generation DAPSQ has reliable biomechanical stability.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the m ethod for simultaneous determination of 8 kinds of ginsenosides in Panax quinquefolium broken pieces. METHODS :HPLC-DAD method was used to determine the contents of ginsenoside Rg 1,Re,Rb1, Rc,Ro,Rb2,Rb3,Rd in P. quinquefolium broken pieces. The determination was performed on Agilent 5 TC-C18 column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile- 0.2% phosphoric acid water solution (gradient elution )at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The column temperature was set at 30 ℃. The detection wavelength was set at 203 nm,and sample size was 10 μL. Ginsenoside Re and ginsenoside Rb 2 were used as control ,liner calibration with two-reference substances correction was used to predict the retention time of other 6 components,and was compared with the relative retention time method. Using ginsenoside Re as control , above components were quantified by the relative correction factor method ,and the results were compared with the external standard method. RESULTS :The contents of ginsenoside Rg 1,Re,Rb1,Rc,Ro,Rb2,Rb3,Rd were 10.59-12.78,2.160-2.768, 27.492-38.880,3.154-4.018,3.368-4.080,0.343-0.755,0.961-1.415,5.857-6.923 mg/g. The accuracy of two-reference substances linear correction method to predict the retention time of components was higher ,and the absolute deviation of the predicted retention time was lower than that of the relative retention time method. There was no significant difference between the relative correction factor method and the external standard method ,and relative error was <3% . CONCLUSIONS :Established two-reference substances for determination of multiple components can be used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of 8 kinds of ginsensides in P. quinquefolium broken pieces simultaneously and accurately.
