Objective:To analyze the disease burden in middle-aged and elderly population aged ≥55 in Shenzhen from 2016 to 2030 and provide evidence for the development of healthy aging strategies.Methods:The years of life lost (YLL), years lost due to disability (YLD), and the disability-adjusted life year (DALY) in this population from 2016 to 2022 were calculated. Joinpoint log-linear regression model was used to analyze the time trend. Bayesian age-period-cohort model and grey system model were used to predict YLL, YLD, and DALY in this population in 2030.Results:From 2016 to 2022, the crude DALY rate showed a transient fluctuation in age group 55-74 years, but a pronounced increase in age group ≥85 years. The proportions of YLL and YLD due to non-communicable diseases in all age groups was considerably higher than those due to communicable and nutritional diseases and injuries. In 2022, in all age groups, the YLL due to neoplasms (55-74 years old) and cardiovascular disease (≥75 years old) ranked first, and the YLD due to musculoskeletal disorder ranked first. By 2030, the causes of YLL and YLD ranking first in each age group would be remained, while the ranks of some causes would increase.Conclusions:The age specific characteristics of current and predicted disease burden differed in individuals aged ≥55 years. Therefore, it is necessary to allocate social and medical resources according to the disease burden pattern.

Objective To explore the predictive value of novel anthropometric indicators for the long-term prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods A total of 712 patients diagnosed with AMI in the People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from January 2018 to December 2019 were selected as research subjects,and divided into an event group and a non-event group according to whether major cardiovascular adverse events(MACEs)occurred during the period of follow-up.Gensini score was used to quanti-tatively assess the degree of coronary artery stenosis.Spearman correlation analysis was used to explore the correla-tion between the new anthropometric indicators and Gensini score.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the ability of new anthropometric indicators to predict MACEs,and the patients were grouped according to the optimal cut-off value.Kaplan-Meier curve was used to analyze the survival difference between the groups.Multivariate Cox regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors of MACEs.Results During a median follow-up of 27(20,39)months,a total of 125 patients developed MACEs.As compared with those in the non-event group,the patients in the event group had a higher proportion of hypertension,diabetes and abdominal obesity,higher HbA1c and FBG levels,and longer body weight and waist circumference.The LAP index,CMI index,BRI index and Gensini score were significantly increased,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that LAP index,CMI index and BRI index were positively corre-lated with Gensini score(r=0.233,0.126,0.272,P<0.001).ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC of LAP index,CMI index,VAI index,BRI index and ABSI index were 0.745,0.640,0.490,0.874 and 0.506 respec-tively;Kaplan-Meier curve analysis showed that the cumulative incidence of MACEs in LAP index,CMI index and BRI index was significantly increased in the high-value group(Log-rank test,P＜0.05).The results of multivariate Cox regression analysis after adjusting confounding showed that CMI index(HR=1.430,95%CI:1.049～1.952,P=0.024)and BRI index(HR=1.332,95%CI:1.234～1.439,P＜0.001)were independent risk factors for MACEs.Conclusions CMI index and BRI index of new anthropometric indicators are independent risk factors for long-term prognosis in patients with AMI.

Objective:To evaluate the detection rate and distribution characteristics of lesions in patients with biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer by 68Ga-prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-11 PET/CT. Methods:From January 2020 to March 2024, 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT examination results of 172 patients (age (69.4±6.5) years) with BCR after radical prostatectomy in Renji Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were retrospectively analyzed. The relationship between prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels and 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT detection rate was explored. The location and quantity of lesions detected by 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT were analyzed in BCR patients with clear location after local treatment, and data were analyzed by Fisher exact test. Results:The detection rate of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in patients with BCR was 70.35%(121/172). The positive detection rate increased with the increase of PSA level, with detection rates of 0.2 μg/L≤PSA<0.5 μg/L, 0.5 μg/L≤PSA<1.0 μg/L, 1.0 μg/L≤PSA<1.5 μg/L and PSA≥1.5 μg/L groups of 49.12%(28/57), 67.24%(39/58), 15/16 and 95.12%(39/41), respectively. After local treatment, 64 cases were diagnosed with 95 recurrent and metastatic lesions. Among them, 22(34.38%) had simple prostate bed recurrence, 23(35.94%) had simple lymph node metastasis, 7(10.94%) had simple bone metastasis, and 12(18.75%) had multi regional metastasis. The proportion of bone metastasis (18.75%, 12/64) was significantly lower than that of prostate bed recurrence and lymph node metastasis (both 50.00%(32/64); both P=0.002). Conclusions:68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT has a high detection rate in patients with BCR after radical prostatectomy, especially in patients with high PSA levels. The lesions are mainly distributed in the prostate bed and lymph nodes, while bone metastases are relatively rare, which provide a theoretical basis for the selection of more accurate treatment plans for BCR patients in the future.

Objective To analyze the differences of von Mises stress distribution in knee cartilage and meniscus in female with generalised joint hypermobility (GJH) and healthy female during drop jump landing. Methods The kinematic and ground reaction force (GRF) characteristics of knee joint in female with GJH and healthy female at the moment of peak vertical GRF (VGRF) during loading phase of drop jump landing were collected. The knee joint reaction force was calculated via inverse dynamics, and the combined force of knee joint along long axis of the femur was applied as the load. Based on three-dimensional (3D) finite element model of a female knee joint, numerical simulations were performed separately during drop jump landing of subjects in two groups, and von Mises stresses and stress distribution of knee cartilage and meniscus were calculated. Results At the moment of peak VGRF during drop jump landing, knee flexion and valgus angles in GJH group and control group showed a statistical significance (P<0. 05). Compared with control group, knee flexion angle decreased and valgus angle increased in GJH group. During drop jump landing, GJH group bore larger stress inside the knee joint, and stress distribution in weight-bearing areas of the medial and lateral tibiofemoral compartments was uneven, while the lateral femoral cartilage lateral condyle, the anterior and middle lateral of lateral tibial cartilage, the anterior angle and body lateral margin of lateral meniscus were stress concentration sites. Conclusions For females with GJH, the stability of knee joint decreases and force lines change in jumping events, due to the increased range of motion of knee joint and relaxation of joint capsule, which increases the risk of cartilage and meniscal injury in lateral knee joint. During jumping sports, females with GJH should especially prevent knee joint injury caused by altered force lines in frontal plane of knee joint.

Objective    To analyze the difference of location identification of pulmonary nodules in two dimensional (2D) and three dimensional (3D) images, and to discuss the identification methods and clinical significance of pulmonary nodules location in 3D space. Methods    The clinical data of 105 patients undergoing sublobectomy in the Department of Thoracic Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University from December 2018 to December 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 28 males and 77 females, with an average age of 57.21±13.19 years. The nodule location was determined by traditional 2D method and 3D depth ratio method respectively, and the differences were compared. Results    A total of 30 nodules had different position identification between the two methods, among which 25 nodules in the inner or middle zone of 2D image were located in the peripheral region of 3D image. The overall differences between the two methods were statistically significant (P<0.05). The diagnostic consistency rates of two methods were 66.67% in the right upper lung, 83.33% in the right middle lung, 73.68% in the right lower lung, 75.76% in the left upper lung, and 64.71% in the left lower lung. In each lung lobe, the difference between the two methods in the right upper lung (P=0.014) and the left upper lung (P=0.019) was statistically significant, while in the right middle lung (P=1.000), right lower lung (P=0.460) and left lower lung (P=0.162) were not statistically significant. Conclusion    The 3D position definition of lung nodules based on depth ratio is more accurate than the traditional 2D definition, which is helpful for preoperative planning of sublobectomy.

Objective:To compare the diagnostic efficacy of 68Ga-prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-11 PET/CT and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT in TNM staging before radical prostatectomy. Methods:From July 2018 to December 2019, a total of 67 patients ((67.5±6.8) years) with prostate cancer diagnosed pathologically by radical surgery in Renji Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University were retrospectively enrolled. All patients underwent 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT whole-body scans before surgery. Results of PET/CT were compared with pathological diagnosis after surgery to compare the diagnostic efficiencies of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT for preoperative TNM staging ( χ2 test). The differences of the maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max) in primary lesions between 2 imaging methods were compared by Mann-Whitney U test. Patients were divided into low-risk, intermediate-risk and high-risk for stratified analysis. Results:Among 67 patients, 9 were with low-risk, 19 were with intermediate-risk, 39 were with high-risk. For T staging, 59 (88.06%, 59/67) patients showed positive results by 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT imaging, with median SUV max of 13.80(7.30, 22.40) for 67 patients; 31(46.27%, 31/67) patients showed positive results in 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging, with median SUV max of 4.00(3.10, 5.60) ( U=62, P<0.05). Stratifed analysis showed that the detection rate of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT was higher than that of 18F-FDG PET/CT in intermediate-risk patients (17/19 vs 6/19; χ2=4.920, P<0.05). Among 67 patients, 10 were diagnosed as N1 stage based on the pathological results. The sensitivities, specificities, accuracies, positive predictive values and negative predictive values of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT for detecting positive regional lymph nodes were 6/10, 87.72%(50/57), 83.58%(56/67), 6/13, 92.59%(50/54) and 4/10, 89.47%(51/57), 82.09%(55/67), 4/10, 89.47%(51/57), respectively. 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT detected 15 patients (22.39%, 15/67) with M1 stage, and 18F-FDG PET/CT identified 9 patients (13.43%, 9/67; χ2=35.436, P<0.05). Conclusions:As for T staging, the detection rate of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT in the intermediate-risk group is better than 18F-FDG PET/CT. In N and M staging, the detection rates of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT are higher than those of 18F-FDG PET/CT.

Objective:To investigate the pathological changes of JNET classification of colorectal tumors.Methods:Data of patients with colorectal neoplasms who underwent narrow-band imaging combined with magnifying endoscopy, and whose postoperative pathological specimens were obtained at the endoscopy center of the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University from January 2015 to June 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. The endoscopic JNET diagnosis and pathological features (surface pit epithelial exfoliation, surface mucosal necrosis structure, surface mucosal ethmoid reticular structure, fibrous tissue reactive hyperplasia, mucosa muscle without residual and carcinomatous interstitial reaction) were analyzed.Results:A total of 81 patients with colorectal neoplasms (diameter >1.5 cm) were enrolled with 74 cases receiving endoscopic treatment and seven cases receiving surgical treatment. The frequency of surface mucosal sieve reticular structure in type 3 of JNET (20.00%) was lower than that in type 2B (42.86%), which was in turn higher than that in type 2A (2.78%), with significant differences ( P<0.05). The frequencies of fibrous tissue reactive proliferation, no residual mucosal muscles, and carcinomatous interstitial reaction in type 2A and 2B were lower than that of type 3, with significant differences (all P<0.05). There were significant differences in the consistency group and inconsistency group of JNET classification and pathological diagnosis in surface pit epithelial exfoliation and surface mucosal necrosis (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Type 2B of JNET classification indicates that the pathological features may be the surface mucosal reticular structure; type 3 indicates reactive hyperplasia of fibrous tissue, no residual mucosal muscles and cancerous interstitial reaction. The exfoliation of the surface pit epithelium and the necrosis of the surface mucosa may be the pathological interference factors affecting the accuracy of JNET classification diagnosis.
