Objective: To explore the relationship between processed food consumption and blood pressure level of students in a university in Yunnan Province, so as to provide the reference for preventing hypertension in university students. Methods: In October 2021, a cluster sampling method was used to select 4 781 freshmen from a university in Kunming, Yunnan Province. The frequency of processed food consumption of university students was assessed by using the dietary frequency questionnaire, and height, weight and blood pressure were measured. Mann-Whitney test and Kruskal-Wallis test were used to compare the differences in blood pressure level of university students with different demographic variables, and the association between processed food consumption and blood pressure level was analyzed with a generalized linear model. Results: Among the students of a university in Yunnan Province, the detection rates of systolic prehypertension and hypertension were 33.86% and 1.23%, and the detection rates of diastolic prehypertension were 32.13% and hypertension 7.22%. The results of generalized linear model analysis showed that after controlling for demographic variables and other variables that might affect the blood pressure level of university students, the consumption of processed food (bread and cake: β =0.15, 95% CI =0.01-0.29) and ultra processed food (coffee beverage: β =-0.29, 95% CI =-0.54--0.03) were associated with systolic blood pressure level( P <0.05). The consumption of processed food (salted duck egg: β =0.21, 95% CI =0.01-0.41) was correlated with the diastolic blood pressure of college students ( P <0.05). Conclusions Processed food consumption in university students may increase the risk of high blood pressure.The education of healthy eating among college students should be strengthened to reduce the consumption of processed foods.

Objective To explore the efficacy, safety, and factors that might influence the efficacy of antiPD-1 antibody-based therapy in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma in the real world. Methods The clinical features, efficacy, and safety in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma who received anti-PD-1 antibody-based therapy were retrospectively analyzed. The survival status was followed-up. Results The objective response and the disease control rate were 21.8% and 76.4%, respectively. The overall incidence of adverse events during treatment was 81.8%, of which the incidence of grade 3/4 adverse events was 14.5%. The incidence of immune-related adverse events was 58.2% and the incidence of grade 3/4 immune-related adverse events was 3.6%, and no treatment-related death was observed. The median PFS of the 55 patients was 5.0 (95%CI: 3.9-6.1) months, and the median OS was 11.4 (95%CI: 6.5-16.3) months. Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that liver function Child-Pugh scores and performance status ECOG score were the influencing factors of the objective response rate and survival. Conclusion In the real world anti-PD-1 antibody-based therapy is safe and effective in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, in which the performance status ECOG score and liver function Child-Pugh score before treatment are independent prognostic factors influencing survival.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of single locked-plate internal fixation combined with autologous iliac bone graft in the treatment of Rorabeck type II periprosthetic distal femural fracture (PDFF) after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods:A retrospective case series study was made on 13 patients suffering from Rorabeck type II PDFF after primary TKA together with severe osteoporosis (T value≤ -2.5 SD) admitted to 940th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force of PLA from January 2016 to December 2020, including 4 males and 9 females, aged 65-85 years [(75.2±6.5)years]. All patients were treated with single locked-plate internal fixation combined with autologous iliac bone graft. Anti-osteoporosis and early standardized joint function rehabilitation were undertaken postoperatively. The operation time and intraoperative blood loss were recorded. The range of motion of knee joint was compared before operation, at postoperative 3, 6 and 12 months and at the last follow-up. The Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee score was assessed at postoperative 3, 6 and 12 months and at the last follow-up to evaluate the recovery of knee joint function. The bone mineral density was reexamined at postoperative 6 months and 12 months to evaluate the therapeutic effect of anti-osteoporosis. Complications were detected as well.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-72 months [(43.2±19.9)months]. The operation time was 90-135 minutes [(103.8±12.6)minutes], with the intraoperative blood loss of 100-250 ml [(150.0±45.6)ml]. The range of motion of knee joint was (114.6±7.8)°, (90.4±8.0)°, (97.3±4.8)° and (98.1±6.3)° before operation and at postoperative 3, 6 and 12 months (all P<0.05). The HSS knee score was (80.2±2.2)points, (84.6±2.9)points and (87.3±3.3)points at postoperative 3, 6 and 12 months (all P<0.05). The knee joint function was excellent in 10 patients and good in 3 at postoperative12 months, and the excellent and good rate was 100%. The T value of bone mineral density was (-3.8±0.6)SD, (-3.4±0.6)SD and (-2.9±0.6)SD preoperatively and at postoperative 6 months and 12 months (all P<0.05). One patient experienced nonunion and was cured after secondary autologous iliac bone grafting combined with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) bone grafting. Three patients developed venous thrombosis of lower limbs and were cured with oral administration of rivaroxaban. One patient had mild knee flexion and extension limitation and was improved after manual release under femoral nerve block anesthesia and subsequent functional rehabilitation. Conclusion:For patients with Rorabeck type II PDFF after TKA, single locked-plate internal fixation combined with autologous iliac bone graft has advantages of short operation time, few intraoperative bleeding, satisfactory knee range of motion and functional recovery as well as significant improvement of bone mineral density.

Acute abdomen, abdominal trauma, gastrointestinal bleeding and gastrointestinal tumors are the main conditions that are routinely treated in gastrointestinal surgery department with high incidence and critical condition. These conditions need emergency or selective operations. During the outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), it's a great challenge for us to meet the patients' requirement under the situation. As the COVID-19 was brought under control in China, the Department of General Surgery in Nanfang Hospital resumed regular medical services gradually. Based on our clinical practice, the four major measures of strengthening pre-hospital screening, perioperative prevention and control, medical staff protection, and ward management were adopted. These main measures include the strict implementation of the appointment system and triage system before admission; the conduction of epidemiological and preliminary screening of viral nucleic acids; the chest CT examination during the perioperative period to re-screen COVID-19; the reduction of the risk of droplets and aerosol transmission; the minimally invasive surgery combined with enhanced recovery program in order to reduce patient's susceptibility and shorten the length of postoperative hospital stay; the reinforcement of specific infection control training for medical staff; the strict implementation of hierarchical protection; the establishment of gastrointestinal surgery prevention and control system; the rehearsal of emergency exercise; the installation of quarantine wards; the screening and management of family care-givers; the strict disinfection of environment and materials. Our preliminary practice shows that following the work guidelines issued by the Guangdong Province COVID-19 Prevention and Control Office and adopting precise management strategies in combination with the specific clinical features of gastrointestinal surgery, it is possible to safely resume regular care for the patients and comply to epidemic control at the same time.

Objective: To understand the consistency of ALK Ventana-D5F3 immunohistochemistry (IHC) interpretation in Chinese lung adenocarcinoma among histopathologists from different hospitals, and to recommend solution for the problems found during the interpretation of ALK IHC in real world, with the aim of the precise selection of patients who can benefit from ALK targeted therapy. Methods: This was a multicenter and retrospective study. A total of 109 lung adenocarcinoma cases with ALK Ventana-D5F3 IHC staining were collected from 31 lung cancer centers in RATICAL research group from January to June in 2018. All cases were scanned into digital imaging with Ventana iSCANcoreo Digital Slide Scanning System and scored by 31 histopathologists from different centers according to ALK binary (positive or negative) interpretation based on its manufacturer′s protocol. The cases with high inconsistency rate were further analyzed using FISH/RT-PCR/NGS. Results: There were 49 ALK positive cases and 60 ALK negative cases, confirmed by re-evaluation by the specialist panel. Two cases (No. 2302 and No.2701) scored as positive by local hospitals were rescored as negative, and were confirmed to be negative by RT-PCR/FISH/NGS. The false interpretation rate of these two cases was 58.1% (18/31) and 48.4% (15/31), respectively. Six out of 31 (19.4%) pathologists got 100% accuracy. The minimum consistency between every two pathologists was 75.8%.At least one pathologist gave negative judgement (false negative) or positive judgement (false positive) in the 49 positive or 60 negative cases, accounted for 26.5% (13/49), 41.7% (25/60), respectively, with at least one uncertainty interpretation accounted for 31.2% (34/109). Conclusion There are certain heterogeneities and misclassifications in the real world interpretation of ALK-D5F3 IHC test, which need to be guided by the oncoming expert consensus based on the real world data.

Objective To investigate the influence of depression on glycemic control in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods The Zung self-rating depression scale(SDS) was used to assess depression.A total of 276 cases of T2DM were divided into the group A(SDS standard score ≥53 points) and B(SDS standard score ＜53points).The levels of HbA1c,FPG,HOMA-IR,etc.were compared between the two groups,and the influencing factors of glycemic control in T2DM patients were analyzed.Results In the patients with T2DM,the SDS standard score was correlated with HbA1c(r=0.26,P＜0.05).The multivariate regression analysis showed that the SDS standard score was still correlated with HbA1c (β =0.30,t =5.1,P＜ 0.05).The HbA1c level in the group A was higher than that in the group B(t=3.685,P＜0.05);after correcting the factors of sex,age and education,the HbA1c level in the group A was still higher than that in the group B(F=47.8,P＜0.05).Conclusion The depression mood is adverse to glycemic control in T2DM patients.

Objective: To investigate the effect of metformin on the expressions of activating transcription factor-6(ATF6)and Caspase12 in hippocampus of type 2 diabetic rats. Methods: GK male rats with random blood glucose≥11.1 mmol/L were orally administrated with normal saline(DM group)and metformin(MET group, 85 mg·kg^-1·d^-1)for 8 weeks(n=10 each group). Wistar male rats were selected as normal contorl group(NC, n=10). After 8 weeks of continuous medication, body weight and fasting plasma glucose(FPG)were measured, and the morphology of HE stained cells and the expressions of ATF6 and Caspase12 by immunohistochemistry staining in the CA1 area of hippocampus were detected. Results: Compared with NC group, the body weight of DM and MET groups decreased(P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between DM and MET groups(P>0.05). In comparison with NC group, FPG levels in DM and MET groups were markedly increased(P<0.05)while FPG level in MET group was significantly lower than that in DM group(P<0.05). The normal nerve cells in the CA1 region of hippocampal were lower in DM and MET groups than those in NC group, especially in DM group. The protein expressions of ATF6 and Caspase12 in DM and MET groups were higher than that in NC group(all P<0.05), and the expressions of the two protein in MET group were significantly decreased as compared with DM group(P<0.05). Conclusion Metformin reduces the expressions of ATF6 and Caspase12 in hippocampus of type 2 diabetic rats, which may be related to its protective effect on brain.

Objective To investigate the neuroprotective effect and mechanism of liraglutide on diabetic rats. Methods 24 healthy male SPF Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats with random blood glucose greater than 11.1 mmol/L were selected as the experimental group, and randomly divided into diabetes mellitus group ( n＝12) and liraglutide group (n＝12). Ten healthy male SPF Wistar rats with the same age and weight as GK rats were selected as normal control group. After adaptively feeded for 2 weeks, the liraglutide group was given liraglutide (400 μg·kg－1·d－1, subcutaneous injection), while the control group and diabetes mellitus group were given the same volume of saline, and continued to be administered for 8 weeks. After 10 weeks, data and biochemical indicators were recorded. Effects of liraglutide on learning and memory in diabetes mellitus rats were detected by Morris water maze test. HE staining observed the hippocampal neurons morphology. Western blotting method detected the expression of p- IκB kinase (IKK) β, p-NF-κB, NF-κB, Klotho, and PRX2 in hippocampus. Results Morris water maze test showed that liraglutide can improve the spatial learning and memory ability of diabetes mellitus rats. HE staining showed that liraglutide significantly reduced the pathological damage of hippocampal neurons of diabetes mellitus rats. Western blotting showed that liraglutide inhibited NF-κB signaling pathway in hippocampus of diabetes mellitus rats. The expression of Klotho protein in hippocampus of diabetes mellitus group was significantly lower than that of control group, while the expression of PRX2 protein was higher than control group (t＝8.298,－7.398,all P<0.01). The expression of Klotho and PRX2 protein in hippocampus of liraglutide group were higher than diabetes mellitus group (t＝－13.059, 14.113, all P<0.01). The expression of Klotho protein of liraglutide group was similar to that of control group ( t ＝ －1. 137, P>0. 05 ). The expression of PRX2 protein was significantly higher than control group (t＝－28.055, P<0.01). Conclusions Liraglutide may enhance the expression of antioxidant stress protein including Klotho and PRX2, by inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathway in hippocampus of diabetes mellitus rats, reduced oxidative stress and improved the injury of hippocampal neuronal in diabetes mellitus rats, which seems to play a neuroprotective effect, to prevent and delay the occurrence of diabetic encephalopathy.

Objective To explore the feasibility and therapeutic effects of total hip replacement (THR) for intertrochanteric fractures combined with late necrosis of the femoral head.Methods From June 2010 to October 2015,8 patients underwent THR for intertrochanteric fractures combined with necrosis of the femoral head.They were 6 males and 2 females,with an average age of 53.5 years(from 45 to 67 years).According to the Evans-Jensen classification,2 fractures were type ⅠB,5 type ⅡA and one type ⅡB.All the 8 fractures were complicated with late femoral head necrosis,5 cases of which were ischemic.According to the Ficat classification,the ischemic necrosis was type Ⅲ in one and type Ⅳ in 5 cases.In the other 3 cases,the necrosis secondary to the hip osteoarthrosis was type Ⅲ according to the Tonnis classification.The necrotic femoral head was removed after osteotomy of the femoral neck via the posterolateral approach;after reduction of the femoral calcar,the intertrochanteric fracture was reduced and fixated in a press-fit manner through antegrade implantation of a biological stem prosthesis.Functional assessment of the affected hip was carried out at the final follow-up using Harris scoring.Results The 8 patients were followed up for an average of 25.5 months (from 12 to 45 months).After operation,biological press-fit and initial stability of the femoral stem were achieved in all the patients.The X-ray films showed bone ingrowth fixation in all the 8 hips at 3 months postoperatively.The Harris hip scores at the final follow-up averaged 92.3(from 89 to 98).The patients showed fine subjective satisfaction.Follow-ups revealed no infection,prosthetic failure,osteolysis,dislocation or articular instability.Conclusion In treatment of intertrochanteric fractures combined with necrosis of the femoral head,THR can lead to fixation and reduction of the intertrochanteric fracture and replacement of the necrotic femoral head at one stage,promoting functional recovery of the affected hip.
