Objective:To investigate impacts of paeoniflorin-6′-O-benzene sulfonate(CP-25)on proliferation and apoptosis of ovarian cancer cells through Toll-like receptor 4(TLR-4)/nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)signaling pathway.Methods:CCK-8 assay was performed to measure the cell activity of human ovarian cancer cells A2780,SK-OV-3,HO8910 and normal ovarian cells HOSEpiC.A2780 cells were separated into control group(0.01%DMSO),CP-25 low(0.5 mg/ml CP-25),medium(1 mg/ml CP-25)and high(2 mg/ml CP-25)concentration groups and CP-25 high concentration+LPS group(2 mg/ml CP-25 and 0.1 μg/ml TLR-4 activator LPS).Cell proliferation was evaluated by CCK-8 and clone formation assays;cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry and TUNEL staining;proliferating protein Ki67,apoptosis-related proteins(Cleaved caspase-3,Caspase-3,Bax,Bcl-2),TLR-4,p-NF-κB p65,NF-κB p65 protein expression levels were analyzed by Western blot;protein expressions of TLR-4 and NF-κB p65 were observed by immunofluorescence staining.Results:Compared with HOSEpiC cells,viabilities of A2780,SK-OV-3 and HO8910 cells were reduced gradually with the increased of CP-25 concentration(P<0.05),and CP-25 had about 50%inhibitory effect on the growth of A2780 cells at low,medium and high concentrations,so A2780 cells were used for the experiments.Compared with control group,the clone formation rate of A2780 cells in low,medium and high concentration groups of CP-25 reduced obviously,while apoptosis rate and apoptosis index rose obviously,expression levels of Ki67,Bcl-2,TLR-4,p-NF-κB p65 and nuclear NF-κB p65 were reduced obviously,while expression of Cleaved caspase-3/Caspase-3 and Bax were increased obviously in a concentration-dependent manner(P<0.05).Compared with CP-25 high concentration group,cell viability and clone formation rate were significantly increased in CP-25 high concentration+LPS group,while apoptosis rate and apoptosis index were decreased significantly,expression levels of Ki67,Bcl-2,TLR-4,p-NF-κB p65 and nuclear NF-κB p65 were increased significantly,while expressions of Cleaved caspase-3/Cas-pase-3 and Bax were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion:CP-25 inhibits ovarian cancer cell proliferation and promotes apoptosis by inhibiting TLR-4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Bosworth fracture and dislocation is relatively rare, accounting for about 1% of ankle fractures. It is characterized by the proximal fibula fracture embedded in the posterolateral distal tibia. Due to an insufficient understanding of this fracture, it is easy to cause missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis in clinical practice. Due to the insertion of the fracture, it is challenging to perform closed reduction, and improper treatment is easy to cause complications. Surgical treatment is recommended for this type of fracture. In order to improve the understanding of orthopedic surgeons about Bosworth fracture and dislocation, this paper reports the diagnosis and treatment of 2 cases of Bosworth fracture and dislocation, and reviews the literature on Bosworth fracture's mechanism, diagnosis, classification, complications, and treatment options in recent years.

Objective: To explore the effects of three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting gelatin methacrylamide (GelMA) hydrogel loaded with nano silver on full-thickness skin defect wounds in rats. Methods: The experimental research method was adopted. The morphology, particle diameter, and distribution of silver nanoparticles in nano silver solution with different mass concentrations and the pore structure of silver-containing GelMA hydrogel with different final mass fractions of GelMA were observed by scanning electron microscope and the pore size was calculated. On treatment day 1, 3, 7, and 14, the concentration of nano silver released from the hydrogel containing GelMA with final mass fraction of 15% and nano silver with final mass concentration of 10 mg/L was detected by mass spectrometer. At 24 h of culture, the diameters of inhibition zone of GelMA hydrogel containing final mass concentration of 0 (no nano silver), 25, 50, and 100 mg/L nano silver against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli were detected. Fibroblasts (Fbs) and adipose stem cells (ASCs) were isolated respectively by enzymatic digestion using the discarded prepuce after circumcision from a 5-year-old healthy boy who was treated in the Department of Urology of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine in July 2020, and the discarded fat tissue after liposuction from a 23-year-old healthy woman who was treated in the Department of Plastic Surgery of the Hospital in July 2020. The Fbs were divided into blank control group (culture medium only), 2 mg/L nano sliver group, 5 mg/L nano sliver group, 10 mg/L nano sliver group, 25 mg/L nano sliver group, and 50 mg/L nano sliver group, which were added with the corresponding final mass concentrations of nano sliver solution, respectively. At 48 h of culture, the Fb proliferation viability was detected by cell counting kit 8 method. The Fbs were divided into 0 mg/L silver-containing GelMA hydrogel group, 10 mg/L silver-containing GelMA hydrogel group, 50 mg/L silver-containing GelMA hydrogel group, and 100 mg/L silver-containing GelMA hydrogel group and then were correspondingly treated. On culture day 1, 3, and 7, the Fb proliferation viability was detected as before. The ASCs were mixed into GelMA hydrogel and divided into 3D bioprinting group and non-printing group. On culture day 1, 3, and 7, the ASC proliferation viability was detected as before and cell growth was observed by live/dead cell fluorescence staining. The sample numbers in the above experiments were all 3. Four full-thickness skin defect wounds were produced on the back of 18 male Sprague-Dawley rats aged 4 to 6 weeks. The wounds were divided into hydrogel alone group, hydrogel/nano sliver group, hydrogel scaffold/nano sliver group, and hydrogel scaffold/nano sliver/ASC group, and transplanted with the corresponding scaffolds, respectively. On post injury day (PID) 4, 7, 14, and 21, the wound healing was observed and the wound healing rate was calculated (n=6). On PID 7 and 14, histopathological changes of wounds were observed by hematoxylin eosin staining (n=6). On PID 21, collagen deposition of wounds was observed by Masson staining (n=3). Data were statistically analyzed with one-way analysis of variance, analysis of variance for repeated measurement, Bonferroni correction, and independent sample t test. Results: The sliver nano particles in nano silver solution with different mass concentrations were all round, in scattered distribution and uniform in size. The silver-containing GelMA hydrogels with different final mass fractions of GelMA all showed pore structures of different sizes and interconnections. The pore size of silver-containing GelMA hydrogel with 10% final mass fraction was significantly larger than that of silver-containing GelMA hydrogels with 15% and 20% final mass fractions (with P values both below 0.05). On treatment day 1, 3, and 7, the concentration of nano silver released from silver-containing GelMA hydrogel in vitro showed a relatively flat trend. On treatment day 14, the concentration of released nano silver in vitro increased rapidly. At 24 h of culture, the diameters of inhibition zone of GelMA hydrogel containing 0, 25, 50, and 100 mg/L nano silver against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli were 0, 0, 0.7, and 2.1 mm and 0, 1.4, 3.2, and 3.3 mm, respectively. At 48 h of culture, the proliferation activity of Fbs in 2 mg/L nano silver group and 5 mg/L nano silver group was both significantly higher than that in blank control group (P<0.05), and the proliferation activity of Fbs in 10 mg/L nano silver group, 25 mg/L nano silver group, and 50 mg/L nano silver group was all significantly lower than that in blank control group (P<0.05). Compared with the that of Fbs in 0 mg/L silver-containing GelMA hydrogel group, the proliferation activity of Fbs in 50 mg/L silver-containing GelMA hydrogel group and 100 mg/L silver-containing GelMA hydrogel group was all significantly decreased on culture day 1 (P<0.05); the proliferation activity of Fbs in 50 mg/L silver-containing GelMA hydrogel group was significantly increased (P<0.05), while the proliferation activity of Fbs in 100 mg/L silver-containing GelMA hydrogel group was significantly decreased on culture day 3 (P<0.05); the proliferation activity of Fbs in 100 mg/L silver-containing GelMA hydrogel group was significantly decreased on culture day 7 (P<0.05). The proliferation activity of ASCs in 3D bioprinting group show no statistically significant differences to that in non-printing group on culture day 1 (P>0.05). The proliferation activity of ASCs in 3D bioprinting group was significantly higher than that in non-printing group on culture day 3 and 7 (with t values of 21.50 and 12.95, respectively, P<0.05). On culture day 1, the number of dead ASCs in 3D bioprinting group was slightly more than that in non-printing group. On culture day 3 and 5, the majority of ASCs in 3D bioprinting group and non-printing group were living cells. On PID 4, the wounds of rats in hydrogel alone group and hydrogel/nano sliver group had more exudation, and the wounds of rats in hydrogel scaffold/nano sliver group and hydrogel scaffold/nano sliver/ASC group were dry without obvious signs of infection. On PID 7, there was still a small amount of exudation on the wounds of rats in hydrogel alone group and hydrogel/nano sliver group, while the wounds of rats in hydrogel scaffold/nano sliver group and hydrogel scaffold/nano sliver/ASC group were dry and scabbed. On PID 14, the hydrogels on the wound surface of rats in the four groups all fell off. On PID 21, a small area of wounds remained unhealed in hydrogel alone group. On PID 4 and 7, the wound healing rates of rats in hydrogel scaffold/nano sliver/ASC group were significantly higher than those of the other three groups (P<0.05). On PID 14, the wound healing rate of rats in hydrogel scaffold/nano sliver/ASC group was significantly higher than the wound healing rates in hydrogel alone group and hydrogel/nano sliver group (all P<0.05). On PID 21, the wound healing rate of rats in hydrogel alone group was significantly lower than that in hydrogel scaffold/nano sliver/ASC group (P<0.05). On PID 7, the hydrogels on the wound surface of rats in the four groups remained in place; on PID 14, the hydrogel in hydrogel alone group was separated from the wounds of rats, while some hydrogels still existed in the new tissue of the wounds of rats in the other three groups. On PID 21, the collagen arrangement in the wounds of rats in hydrogel alone group was out of order, while the collagen arrangement in the wounds of rats in hydrogel/nano sliver group, and hydrogel scaffold/nano sliver/ASC group was relatively orderly. Conclusions: Silver-containing GelMA hydrogel has good biocompatibility and antibacterial properties. Its three-dimensional bioprinted double-layer structure can better integrate with new formed tissue in the full-thickness skin defect wounds in rats and promote wound healing.

Objective: To evaluate the differential diagnosis of idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) and invasive ductal carcinoma. Methods: The ultrasonographic data of 37 IGM patients and 50 cases of IDC were analyzed retrospectively. The shape, growth direction, margin, internal echo, posterior echo, calcification, Adler blood flow classification, PSV(peak sestolic velocity), RI (resistance index)and elasticity scores were analyzed by χ² test and independent sample t test. The optimal cutoff values of age, PSV and RI were calculated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Logistic regression analysis was used to calculate the odds ratio (OR) of ultrasonic variates in the diagnosis of both diseases. Results: There were no significant differences in the shape, margin, internal echo and blood flow grading between the two groups. The age, lesion growth direction, posterior echo, calcification, PSV, RI and elasticity were statistically different. The cut-of value of Age, PSV and RI were 38.5 years old, 13.20 cm/s, and 0.655. Logistic regression multi-variated analysis revealed that elastic score (OR=9.806) had the best value of the differential diagnosis, as well as calcification (OR=6.937), posterior echo decay (OR=4.613), RI (OR=3.257), lesion growth orientation (OR=3.198), and PSV (OR=1.202). Lesion shape, margin, internal echo, and Adler blood flow classification did not help in differential diagnosis. Conclusion Ultrasound multi-parameter analysis has high value in IGM and IDC differential diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the status of self-management in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) in Zhejiang province, and to explore the relationship between the self-management level and medical coping styles. Methods From March to September 2016, using the convenient sampling method, a total of 450 aged patients with chronic heart failure from 5 Class Ⅲ Grade A hospitals in 3 districts including Ningbo, Pinghu and Jiaxing of Zhejiang province, who were hospitalized in the Cardiovascular Department, were recruited as research subjects. The Self-Management Scale of Heart Failure Patients and Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire (MCMQ) were applied in the investigation to carry out the correlation analysis. Results A total of 450 questionnaires were distributed, and 437 valid questionnaires were collected. The Self-Management Scale of Heart Failure Patients in the 437 patients were (51.48±10.77) in total score, (18.90±3.10) in facing coping style, (16.12±2.18) in avoiding coping style and (11.85±1.82) in yielding coping style. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the total score of self-management was positively correlated with facing coping style (r=0.303, P＜0.01), negatively correlated with yielding (r=-0.157, P＜0.01), and positively correlated with avoiding coping style (r=0.117, P＜0.01). Multiple linear stepwise regression analysis showed that family monthly income, self-care ability and marriage were the main factors affecting self-management of patients with chronic heart failure. Conclusions Self-management level in patients with chronic heart failure in Zhejiang province is relatively low, and effected by family income, self-care ability, marriage and other factors. Nursing staff should understand different characteristics of different patients to provide personalized health education, improve their self management level, and promote the patients more actively face the disease, reduce and avoid negative medical coping.

Objective To build a model of self-management behavior for senile patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) based on Bandura's self-efficacy theory and Clark's chronic disease self-regulation model aged CHF patients and to provide scientific evidence for formulating self-management interventions and plans for senile CHF patients. Methods Totally 881 CHF patients were investigated in 30 hospitals from 6 districts of Shanghai from December 2014 to March 2016. The statistical software AMOS 21.0 was used to conduct the path analysis, include various influencing factors, and build systematically an equation model demonstrating the internal mechanism of self-management behaviors. Results The score of self-management of aged CHF patients was (50.2±9.8). Self-concept, per capita income, heart function grading, avoidance as response, self-care ability, quality of life, resignation as response and education level were included into the multiple regression equation of self-management, and these variables accounted for 20.8% of the total variation. The structural equation model demonstrating the influencing factors of self-management for senile CHF patients fit better, and all path coefficients reached a significant level, suggesting that self-efficacy had only indirect effect on the self-management of senile CHF patients, while self-concept, per capita income, heart function grading, avoidance as response, self-care ability, quality of life, resignation as response and education level had both direct and indirect effect on their self-management. Conclusions The self-management of senile CHF patients remains at a medium and low level on the whole, and symptom management is the worst. This study has constructed a model demonstrating the internal mechanism of self-management behaviors in senile CHF patients, suggesting that medical staff should take targeted and systematic interventions according to the general condition of patients and their self-efficacy and self-concept to help improve their self-management level.

Objective To explore the correlation between the self-management and self-efficacy of senile patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Methods In this study, the conveninent sampling method was adopted. From June to December 2016, totally 416 senile CHF patients hospitalized in the Department of Cardiology of 5 general class Ⅲ grade A hospitals in Xi'an were investigated with the general demographic data questionnaire, self-management scale for CHF patients and chronic disease self-efficacy scale. Results The score of self-management in the senile CHF patients in Xi'an totaled (50.76±9.98), with a scoring rate of 63.5%; the scores of medication management, food and beverage management, psychological and social management and symptom management were (13.38±3.38), (7.89±2.14), (12.81±2.91) and (16.69±4.26), with the scoring rates of 66.9%, 65.8%, 64.1% and 59.6%, respectively, showing a medium level; and there was statistically significant difference in the total self-management score between patients with different marital status, per capita income and heart function grading (t=-2.443, 10.906, 16.229;P<0.05). The score of self-efficacy totaled (34.30±11.90), with a scoring rate of 57.17%, showing a medium level. The correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between self-efficacy and self-management (r=0.161, P< 0.05). Conclusions The self-management and self-efficacy of the senile CHF patients in Xi'an remain at a medium level, which could be possibly improved, and the two are closely correlated. The results suggest that we should pay more attention to the patient's management confidence in the disease itself, attach importance to their psychological and social support and enhance their self-efficacy, thus improving their self-management. This is of great significance in controlling CHF and improving the patient's quality of life.
