Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and treatment of a head-neck separation type of Monteggia equivalent fractures in children.Methods:From March 2016 to February 2019, 12 children sought medical attention at Pediatric Orthopedic Hospital, Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University for a head-neck separation type of Monteggia equivalent fractures. They were 8 boys and 4 girls, aged from 3 to 14 years (average, 8.3 years). All cases were treated with closed reduction, deformity correction and plaster fixation at emergency department after X-ray examination. In line with the treatment principles for Monteggia fractures, after the ulnar length was first restored and stabilized, a proper fixation method was chosen according to the location and type of the ulnar fracture, followed by treatment of the radial neck fracture. The fracture union and complications were evaluated according to the X-ray films after operation, and the therapeutic efficacy was evaluated according to the Mayo elbow performance score (MEPS) at the final follow-up.Results:The head-neck separation type of Monteggia equivalent fractures in children was characterized by a fracture of ulnar diaphysis or metaphysis and a fracture of the radial neck with complete separation of the head and neck, a longitudinal axis of the radius off the capitellum center at the distal fracture end but normal proximal humeroradial relationship. The fractures were classified into 2 types depending on the angulation direction of the ulnar fracture and the direction of distal displacement of the radial neck fracture: 7 cases belonged to the extension-valgus type and 5 cases to the flexion-varus type. The 12 patients were followed up for 8 to 38 months (average, 16.0 months). Of the ulnar fractures, one was treated with closed reduction and Kirschner wire fixation, 4 with elastic intramedullary nail fixation, 5 with plate fixation, one untreated, and one with manual reduction only. Of the radial neck fractures, 11 were treated with closed reduction and elastic intramedullary nail fixation, and one with open reduction and K-wires fixation. All fractures got united after 8 to 12 weeks (mean, 9.6 weeks). The time for removal of internal fixation ranged from 12 to 50 weeks (mean, 31.2 weeks). Avascular necrosis occurred in one case and bulk formation of proximal metaphysis in another. By the MEPS at the final follow-up, the therapeutic efficacy was excellent in 10 cases, good in one and fair in one.Conclusions:The head-neck separation type of Monteggia equivalent fractures in children is different from common Monteggia fractures or radial neck fractures, because its clinical manifestations are characterized by a fracture of ulnar diaphysis or metaphysis and a fracture of the radial neck with complete separation of the head and neck, a longitudinal axis of the radius off the capitellum center at the distal fracture end but normal proximal humeroradial relationship. The treatment options for ulnar fractures include closed reduction with Kirschner wire fixation, elastic intramedullary nailing, open reduction and bone plate fixation or no fixation, while radial neck fractures are mostly treated by closed reduction and elastic intramedullary nailing. Early functional exercise can lead to satisfactory clinical outcomes.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of 2019 novel coronavirus inactivated vaccine on the disease severity of patients with Delta variant of coronavirus disease 2019.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 704 patients with coronavirus disease 2019 infected with Delta variant who were older than 18 years old and admitted in the coronavirus disease 2019 designated hospital of Yangzhou (Subei Hospital New Area Branch) from July 2021 to September 2021. They were divided into severe (severe, critical) group and non-severe (light, ordinary) group according to the clinical characteristics of patients. According to the vaccination status, they were divided into 0-dose group, 1-dose group and 2-dose group. We evaluated the effects of vaccination on the severity of the disease and the production of antibodies, and analyzed the influencing factors leading to the severe group of coronavirus disease 2019.Results:The proportion of severe group in the 2-dose vaccinated group was significantly lower than that in the 1-dose vaccinated group and 0-dose vaccinated group [3.02% (7/232) vs. 9.48% (22/232), 15.83% (38/240), P < 0.05].

Multivariate regression analysis showed that the odds ratio ( OR) of severe group was 0.430 ( P = 0.010) in the 1-dose group and the 2-dose group compared with the 0-dose group. However, the risk of severe group was 0.381-fold in the 2-dose group compared with the 0-dose group [ OR = 0.381, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.121-1.199] which was not statistically significant, when the age was included in the regression analysis ( P > 0.05). PLT ( OR = 0.992, 95% CI was 0.986-0.998) were protective factors, but older than 60 years old ( OR = 3.681, 95% CI was 1.637-8.278), CK ( OR = 1.001, 95% CI was 1.000-1.001), IL-6 ( OR = 1.006, 95% CI was 1.002-1.010), SCr ( OR = 1.020, 95% CI was 1.007-1.033) were risk factors for severe group (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:Compared with the 0-dose vaccinated patients, the coronavirus disease 2019 patients infected with delta variant and fully vaccinated with 2-dose 2019 novel coronavirus inactivated vaccine had lower level of IL-6, SCr, CK and D-dimer, and higher PLT, LYM and IgG titer, who were not easy to develop into the severe condition.

Objective: Systematic evaluation of the correlation of HLA-DQB1 and HLA-DRB1 allele polymorphisms with caries, to provide reference for caries prevention and treatment. Methods: Relevant literature published before December 2020 was searched in the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and CBM databases. Meta-analysis was performed using the R4.0.2 software to test for heterogeneity and evaluate the publication bias. Results : In total,10 case-control studies were included with 564 people in the case group and 676 people in the control group. The results of the Meta-analysis show that: ① HLA-DQB1*02 (OR=0.52, 95%CI=0.29-0.93, P < 0.05) and HLA-DRB1*09 (OR=0.34, 95%CI=0.21-0.58, P < 0.05) are protective factors of dental caries; ② HLA-DRB1*13 (OR=2.96, 95%CI=2.03-4.33, P < 0.05) and HLA-DRB1*14 (OR=1.95, 95%CI=1.26-3.02, P < 0.05) alleles are risk factors for the development of dental caries. The results of the subgroup analysis are: HLA-DRB1*07 is a caries susceptibility factor in the Chinese population (OR=0.48, 95% CI=0.24-0.97, P < 0.05), while it is not statistically significant in the Brazilian and Turkish populations; HLA-DRB1*11 is a caries protective factor in the saliva group (OR=2.26, 95% CI=1.46-3.52, P < 0.05). 3.52, P < 0.001), while it is a caries susceptibility factor in the blood group (OR=0.09, 95% CI=0.12-0.34, P < 0.001). Conclusion HLA-DRB1*13 and HLA-DRB1*14 alleles are caries susceptibility genes, and HLA-DQB1*02 and HLA-DRB1*09 have protective effects on the caries development. HLA-DRB1*07 is a caries susceptibility gene in the Chinese population; HLA-DRB1*11 is a caries protective gene in the saliva group. Due to the limited sample size and quality of the included studies, more high-quality studies will be included later for verification.

Objective:To explore the mediating role of boredom tendency in anxiety, depression and meaning in life in college students.Methods:Totally 590 college students in Shijiazhuang were selected to carry out a questionnaire survey, including general questionnaire, boredom proneness questionnaire (BPQ), meaning in life questionnaire (MLQ), patient health questionnaire (PHQ-9) and general anxiety disorder-7(GAD-7). Spearman correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis were conducted to analyze the data by using SPSS 20.0, and Amos 24.0 was used to analyze the mediating effect of boredom tendency on anxiety, depression and sense of life meaning in college students.Results:Correlation analysis found that the total score of boredom tendency was negatively correlated with meaning in life ( r=-0.260, P<0.05) and education ( r=-0.110, P<0.05). The total score of boredom tendency was positively correlated with depression ( r=0.649, P<0.05) and anxiety ( r=0.555, P<0.05). The mediating effect model fit well(χ 2/ df=0.582, GFI=1.000, AGFI=0.994, RMSEA=0.000). Boredom tendency played a partial mediating role between anxiety meaning in life(standard effect size=-0.054), a complete mediating role between depression and meaning in life(standard effect size=-0.175), and a complete mediating role between educational background and meaning in life(standard effect size=0.025). Conclusion:Boredom tendency plays a mediating role in the model between related factors and meaning in life, and attentions should be paid to the psychological development of college students.

Objective:To discuss the pathological characteristics and strategy for diagnosis and treatment of the transolecranon fracture-dislocation of the elbow in children.Methods:Retrospectively reviewed were the 15 patients who had been treated at Hospital of Pediatric Orthopedics, Xi'an Honghui Hospital from October 2016 to March 2019 for transolecranon fracture-dislocation of the elbow. They were 11 boys and 4 girls, with an average age of 8.3 years (from 5 to 14 years) and 10 left and 5 right arms injured. Type Ⅰ (simple fracture) was found in 11 cases and type Ⅱ (comminuted fracture) in 4 cases in 3 of which the coronoid process was affected. Of them, 14 were treated successfully with closed reduction and plaster fixation under local anesthesia in emergency but one was unsuccessfully. Of the 11 simple fractures, 10 received tension band fixation with Kirschner wire and a short oblique one underwent bone plate fixation; the 4 comminuted fractures were treated by fixation with a combination of Kirschner wire and bone plate.Results:The 15 patients obtained follow-up for 8 to 15 months (average, 11 months). The final follow-up observed fine anatomical relationship of the elbow in all patients, and no such complications as relapse of radial head dislocation, avascular necrosis of the trochlea or early closure of the epiphyseal plate. The transolecranon fracture-dislocation of the elbow obtained bony union in all patients after 5 to 7 weeks (average, 5.6 weeks). The therapeutic efficacy was evaluated at the final follow-up by the Mayo elbow performance score as excellent in 11 cases, as good in 3 and as fair in one.Conclusions:As a type of complicated fracture-dislocation of the elbow, the transolecranon fracture-dislocation of the elbow is rare in children, mainly manifested as simple ones. Treatment options depend on the type of fracture-dislocation. Only anatomical reduction of the olecranon fracture and restoration of a normal trochlear notch can lead to a stable humeroradial joint and thus fine clinical efficacy.
