Osteoporotic proximal humeral fracture (OPHF) is one of the common osteoporotic fractures in the aged, with an incidence only lower than vertebral compression fracture, hip fracture, and distal radius fracture. OPHF, secondary to osteoporosis and characterized by poor bone quality, comminuted fracture pattern, slow healing, and severely impaired shoulder joint function, poses a big challenge to the current clinical diagnosis and treatment. In the field of diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of OPHF, traditional Chinese and Western medicine have accumulated rich experience and evidence from evidence-based medicine and achieved favorable outcomes. However, there is still a lack of guidance from a relevant consensus as to how to integrate the advantages of the two medical systems and achieve the integrated diagnosis and treatment. To promote the diagnosis and treatment of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine, relevant experts from Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatric Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, Youth Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Surgeon Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine have been organized to formulate Expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporotic proximal humeral fracture with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine ( version 2024) by searching related literatures and based on the evidences from evidence-based medicine. This consensus consists of 13 recommendations about the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, aimed at standardizing, systematizing, and personalizing the diagnosis and treatment of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinse and Western medicine to improve the patients ′ function.

Purpose To investigate the clinical value of multi-center digital mammography radiomics nomogram model in predicting triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC).Materials and Methods The digital mammograms of 462 patients with pathologically confirmed breast cancer from November 2016 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed,including 243 cases from Yijishan Hospital of Wannan Medical College(institution 1),106 cases from Fuyang People's Hospital(institution 2)and 113 cases from Taihe People's Hospital(institution 3).According to the results of immunohistochemistry,a total of 349 breast cancer patients in institution 1 and institution 2 were randomly divided into the training group(244 cases,including 41 TNBC and 203 non-TNBC)and the validation group(105 cases,including 18 TNBC and 87 non-TNBC)according to the ratio of 7∶3,113 breast cancer patients(24 TNBC and 89 non-TNBC)from institution 3 were included in the external validation group.Comparing the mediolateral oblique and cranial cauda digital mammography images,the mammography imaging with larger lesion areas were selected,and the image segmentation and radiomics feature extraction were performed.The radiomics model was constructed by using Logistic regression.The clinicopathological parameters and radiomics scores were used to construct a nomogram.Receiver operating characteristic and decision curve analysis were used to evaluate the model performance.To compare The predictive performance between the models was compared.Results Finally,four radiomics features closely related to TNBC were selected to construct an radiomics model.The area under the curve,sensitivity and specificity of TNBC predicted by the radiomics model in training group,validation group and external test group were 0.868,90.24%and 72.91%,0.827,72.22%and 75.86%,0.837,70.83%and 78.65%,respectively.The area under the curve,sensitivity and specificity of TNBC predicted by the combined model in the training group,validation group and external test group were 0.903,80.49%and 86.70%,0.890,77.78%and 88.51%,0.870,62.50%and 85.39%,respectively.The combined model was better than the single image omics model in predicting TNBC,and the difference was statistically significant between the training group and the verification group(Z=2.061,2.064,both P<0.05),but not between the external test group(Z=1.223,P=0.221).In three group,decision curve analysis showed that the nomogram predicted a higher net benefit than the radiomics model for triple-negative breast cancer.Conclusion The radiomics model has high diagnostic efficiency in predicting TNBC,and the nomogram model combined with the radiomics score and histological grading can further improve the prediction efficiency.

Objective:To analyze the genetic evolution and molecular characteristics of H5N8 avian influenza viruses (AIVs) isolated from the poultry in a live poultry market (LPM) in Urumqi, Xinjiang.Methods:Oropharyngeal and cloacal swabs of poultry were collected from a LPM in Urumqi in 2016. AIVs were isolated by inoculating swab samples into chicken embryos. Hemagglutination test and RT-PCR were used to identify the AIVs. The genes of isolated AIVs were amplified with the universal primers of AIV and whole-genome sequencing was also performed. Pairwise sequence alignment and analysis of phylogenetic and molecular characteristics were performed using BLAST, Clustal W, MEGA-X and DNAStar software.Results:Five H5N8 AIVs were isolated from poultry. These strains shared a nucleotide identity of 99.70%-100.00%, which indicated that they were from the same source, and were named XJ-H5N8/2016. Phylogenetic analysis based on hemagglutinin( HA), NS and PB2 genes showed that these isolates were clustered together with H5N8 AIVs isolated from the migratory swans in Hubei, Shanxi and Sanmenxia, and the ducks in India during 2016 to 2017. Moreover, they were also clustered together with H5N6 AIVs isolated from minks in China and the first case of human infection in Fujian. The phylogenetic tree of neuraminidase( NA) gene indicated the five isolates clustered together with H5N8 AIVs isolated from ducks in India in 2016, and the phylogenetic trees of PB1, MP, PA and NP genes showed that they were clustered together with H5N8 AIVs isolated from wild birds and poultry in Egypt, Cameroon, Uganda, Congo and other African countries in 2017. The HA cleavage sites of XJ-H5N8/2016 contained five consecutive basic amino acids, indicating high pathogenicity. Multiple mutations in the genes of XJ-H5N8/2016 could enhance its virulence and pathogenicity to mammals. Conclusions:The five strains of H5N8 AIVs isolated from the LPM were highly pathogenic and closely related to the H5N8 AIVs isolated from migratory birds and poultry in Hubei, Shanxi, Sanmenxia area, Africa and India during 2016 to 2017. Meanwhile, some of the viral genes were also closely related to the H5N6 AIVs isolated from the minks and human in China. Multiple mutations could increase the virulence and pathogenicity of AIVs to mammals, which could pose a potential threat to public health.

Background: The H5 avian influenza viruses (AIVs) of clade 2.3.4.4 circulate in wild and domestic birds worldwide. In 2017, nine strains of H5N6 AIVs were isolated from aquatic poultry in Xinjiang, Northwest China. Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the origin, reassortment, and mutations of the AIV isolates. Methods: AIVs were isolated from oropharyngeal and cloacal swabs of poultry. Identification was accomplished by inoculating isolates into embryonated chicken eggs and performing hemagglutination tests and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The viral genomes were amplified with RT-PCR and then sequenced. The sequence alignment, phylogenetic, and molecular characteristic analyses were performed by using bioinformatic software. Results: Nine isolates originated from the same ancestor. The viral HA gene belonged to clade 2.3.4.4B, while the NA gene had a close phylogenetic relationship with the 2.3.4.4C H5N6 highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs) isolated from shoveler ducks in Ningxia in 2015. The NP gene was grouped into an independent subcluster within the 2.3.4.4B H5N8 AIVs, and the remaining six genes all had close phylogenetic relationships with the 2.3.4.4B H5N8 HPAIVs isolated from the wild birds in China, Egypt, Uganda, Cameroon, and India in 2016–2017, Multiple basic amino acid residues associated with HPAIVs were located adjacent to the cleavage site of the HA protein. The nine isolates comprised reassortant 2.3.4.4B HPAIVs originating from 2.3.4.4B H5N8 and 2.3.4.4C H5N6 viruses in wild birds. Conclusions These results suggest that the Northern Tianshan Mountain wetlands in Xinjiang may have a key role in AIVs disseminating from Central China to the Eurasian continent and East African.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of periosteum-covered iliac crest autografts for treatment of severe osteochondral lesions of talus （OCLTs）.Methods:A retrospective case series study was used to analyze the clinical data of 26 patients with severe OCLTs treated at Zhejiang Armed Police Corps Hospital from January 2013 to October 2019. There were 21 males and 5 females，aged 17-49 years ［（36.3 ± 10.9）years］. All patients were treated using periosteum-covered iliac crest autografts. The visual analogue scale （VAS），American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society （AOFAS） ankle-hindfoot score and ankle joint range of motion （ROM） were assessed before operation，6 months after operation and at the last follow-up （≥ 12 months）. The area of talus injury with MRI at the same level was recorded before operation and at the last follow-up. The healing of talus and joint surface was detected with CT at the last follow-up. The healing of the incision and osteotomy site and complications were observed.Results:All patients were followed for 12 to 22 months［（15.1 ± 3.2）months］. The VAS was （2.4 ± 0.9）points and （1.7 ± 0.6）points at postoperative 6 months and at the last follow-up，significantly lower than the preoperative （5.4 ± 1.2）points （ P < 0.01）. Meanwhile，the VAS at the last follow-up was significantly lower than that at postoperative 6 months （ P < 0.01）. The AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score was （71.7 ± 7.8）points and （87.8 ± 6.2） points at postoperative 6 months and at the last follow-up，significantly lower than the preoperative （66.5 ± 7.5） points （ P < 0.01）. Meanwhile，the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot at the last follow-up was significantly lower than that at postoperative 6 months （ P < 0.01）. The ankle ROM was （58.4 ± 5.5）° and （70.0 ± 4.9）° at postoperative 6 months and at the last follow-up，significantly improved when compared to the preoperative （42.3 ± 8.1）° （ P < 0.01）. Meanwhile，the ankle ROM at the last follow-up was significantly improved when compared to that at postoperative 6 months （ P < 0.01）. The area of talus injury with MRI at the same level was 0.67（0.55，0.89）cm 2 at the last follow-up，significantly improved when compared to preoperative 2.64（1.98，3.68）cm 2 （ P < 0.01）. The transplantation had neither obvious defects nor joint surface steps based on CT findings. All surgical incisions were healed by first intention. There were no complications such as incision infection，skin necrosis，nonunion of osteotomy，malunion or severe ankle joint disorder except that 8 patients had residual local subchondral bone?marrow?edema-like?signal?and 2 patients showed delayed healing of medial malleolus osteotomy. Conclusion:For patients with severe OCLTs，periosteum-covered iliac crest autografts can effectively relieve ankle pain，improve ankle function，and reduce the area of injury.

Objective:To study the effect of permissive hypercapnia on pulmonary infection in patients underwent thoracoscopic combined with laparoscopic radical esophagectomy.Methods:From 2018 to 2020, 90 who patients underwent thoracoscopic laparoscopy combined with radical esophagectomy were divided into 3 groups by random who number table method, including 30 patients in experimental group 1, 30 patients in experimental group 2, and 30 patients in control group.PaCO 2 was maintained in the range of 56 mmHg-65 mmHg in experimental group 1, 46 mmHg-55 mmHg in experimental group 2 and 35 mmHg-45 mmHg in control group. The peak airway pressure (Ppeak) , lung dynamic compliance (Cdyn) and oxygenation index (OI) were observed and compared among the three groups after endotracheal intubation (T1) , 30 min after right artificial pneumothorax (T2) and 30 min after right lung recruitment (T3) ;The clinical pulmonary infection score (CPIS) , serum procalcitonin (PCT) on the 1st, 4th and 7th day after operation were analyzed and compared. Results:At T2, observation group A had the highest dynamic lung compliance (25.13 ± 5.70 vs 22.28 ± 4.26 vs 19.99 ± 4.36), the fastest heart rate (102.04 ± 10.91 vs 96.46 ± 9.91 vs 92.28 ± 8.08) and the lowest airway pressure (17.62 ± 1.79 vs 18.96 ± 1.90 vs 20.39 ± 1.71) ( P < 0.05). Observation group A had the lowest CPIS on the 1st, 4th and 7th day after operation compared with observation group B and control group (1.12±0.77 vs 1.71±0.90 vs 2.64±1.07) (6.08±1.20 vs 7.43±1.10 vs 8.31±1.55) (1.69±1.12 vs 2.32±0.98 vs 3.44±1.25) ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:Permissive hypercapnia can reduce airway resistance, improve lung compliance and reduce the risk of postoperative pulmonary infection.

Objective:To analyze phylogenetic structure and molecular characteristics of H5N6 avian influenza virus (AIVs) isolated from live poultry market (LPM).Methods:Oropharyngeal and cloacal swabs from poultry, and environmental samples were collected from LPM in Urumqi in December 2018, AIVs were isolated and identified by inoculation of chicken embryo, hemagglutination test and RT-PCR, the viral whole genome was amplified with the universal primers of influenza A virus, and then sequenced, pairwise sequence alignments, phylogenetic and molecular characteristics analysis were performed by BLAST, Clustal W, MEGA-X and DNAStar software.Results:Six strains of H5N6 AIVs were isolated from poultry samples, the identity between the viral genes was high (99.4%-100.0%), so the isolates were the same source. BLAST analysis revealed that the viral NP sequence had the highest identity (99.7%) with H5N6 AIVs isolated from poultry in Suzhou, while the sequence of the remaining 7 viral genes had the highest identity (99.0%-100.0%) with H5N6 AIVs isolated from environment in Guangdong during 2017 to 2018. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the viral HA belonged to Clade 2.3.4.4C, and the viral HA, NA, PB1, PA, NP, and MP were all clustered together with H5N6 AIVs isolated from mink in Eastern China in 2018, while the PB2 and NS were clustered together with H5N6 AIVs isolated from environment in Guangdong from 2017 to 2018. The HA cleavage site contained multiple basic amino acid residues, which was highly pathogenic AIVs (HPAIVs). S137A and T160A mutations of HA could increase binding to human-type receptor SAα2, 6-Gal. Additionally, the viral multiple mutations, including 59-69 deletion in NA, the L89V, G309D, R477G, I495V, I504V, D391E, and A661E in PB2, as well as the P42S, D92E, and 80-84 deletion in NS1, could enhance the viral virulence and pathogenicity to mammals. Conclusions:The 6 strains of H5N6 HPAIVs isolated from LPM have relatively close genetic relationship with H5N6 AIVs isolated from mink in Eastern China and environment in Guangdong during 2017 to 2018, the viral multiple mutations could increase its pathogenicity to mammals, which could pose a potential risk to public health.

Objective:To analyze the complete genome sequence and phylogenetic structure of a wild bird-derived H1N1 avian influenza virus (AIV) in the northern Tianshan Mountain.Methods:In November 2018, 320 samples of fresh wild bird feces were collected from several reservoirs in the middle part of northern Tianshan Mountain. Chicken embryo inoculation test, hemagglutination inhibition test and RT-PCR with PB1 universal primer were used to isolate and identify AIVs. Eight fragments of the viral genome were amplified with the universal primers of influenza A virus and the whole viral genome was sequenced. Pairwise sequence alignments and analysis of phylogenetic and molecular characteristics were performed by BLAST, Clustal W, MEGA7.0 and MegAlign software. Results:Influenza viruses were isolated and identified from six samples of wild bird feces with a positive rate of 1.88%. One of them was H1N1 AIV, named A/wild bird/Xinjiang/010/2018 (H1N1) (XJ-H1N1). The eight gene segments of XJ-H1N1 were all derived from AIVs isolated from wild ducks of Anseriformes. The surface genes of HA and NA were Eurasian lineages and derived from H1N1 isolated from Mongolian Anas platyrhynchos and H3N1 isolated from Bangladesh wild duck, respectively. The six internal genes were derived from H6N8 isolated from Anas strepera in Siberia, H7N3 isolated from Anas clypeata and teal in Egypt, and H7N5 isolated from wild birds such as Anas platyrhynchos in the Netherlands. The HA cleavage site of XJ-H1N1 contained only one basic amino acid, suggesting that it was a low pathogenic AIV. Amino acids at positions 190 and 225 of HA receptor binding sites were E and G (H3 count), which could bind both α2, 3 galactoside sialic acid (SAα2, 3Gal) and SAα2, 6Gal receptors. T200A and E227A mutations in HA amino acid sequences and P42S mutation in NS1 amino acid sequences could all enhance the replication ability and pathogenicity of the virus in mammalian cells. Conclusions:A low pathogenic H1N1 AIV, XJ-H1N1, was isolated from wild birds in the northern Tianshan Mountain, resulting from multiple reassortments of AIVs carried by migrating wild ducks. The replication capacity and pathogenicity of XJ-H1N1 in mammalian cells might be enhanced. Moreover, the virus could bind both SA 2-3gal and SA 2-6gal receptors.
