ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the association of osteosarcopenia with falls, risk of fracture, malnutrition among middle-aged and elderly adults.Methods:A total of 253 participants dwelling in Guangzhou community aged 40-90 years were included in this cross-sectional study from December 2017 to December 2019.Bone mineral density(BMD)was detected by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry(DEXA). Body composition was analyzed by a bioelectrical impedance analysis.Handgrip strength and gait speed were examined.The 10-year probability of a major osteoporotic fracture and hip fracture were evaluated by online WHO fracture risk assessment tool( FRAX?). Results:According to diagnostic criteria of AWGS and EWGSOP2, the incidences of osteosarcopenia varied from 5.1% to 7.6%, 5.1% to 11.4% respectively.After the adjustment for age and gender, Logistic regression analysis showed that osteosarcopenia was correlated with falls, risk of fracture and malnutrition.Osteosarcopenia definited by AWGS criteria was strongly correlated with falls( OR=3.27-5.68, P<0.05), osteosarcopenia definited by non-severe sarcopenia criteria was strongly correlated with the risk of hip fracture( OR=1.14-1.15, P<0.05), and fat-free mass index was strongly correlated with osteosarcopenia with different definitions( OR=0.21-0.48, P<0.05). Conclusions:Osteosarcopenia is associated with higher risk of falls, fracture and malnutrition in the Guangzhou community-dwelling middle-aged and elderly adults, and fat-free mass index is an independent risk factor for osteosarcopenia.

ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the impact of detrusor underactivity (DU) on the outcomes of transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) in patients with benign prostatic obstruction (BPO).Methods A retrospective study was conducted in 157 BPO patients who underwent TURP from January 2013 to December 2016.Their ages ranged from 48 to 86 years with a mean age of 70 years.All patients underwent urodynamic study before surgery,bladder contraction index(BCI) ranged from 49.3 to 208.6,with a mean of 120.1.The patients were divided into two groups according to BCI.DU group (BCI ＜ 100) consisted of 47 patients,non-DU group (BCI ≥ 100) 110patients.Before surgery,there were no significant differences in International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS),storage and voiding symptom scores of IPSS (IPSS-S,IPSS-V),quality of life (QOL),maximum free flow rate (fQmax),post-voided residual urine volume (PVR) between the two groups[(21.5 ±7.0)vs.(21.5 ±6.2),(9.5 ±3.6)vs.(9.8 ±3.5),(12.0 ± 4.9)vs.(11.8±4.2),(5.1 ±0.8)vs.(5.3 ±0.7),(6.5±3.5)ml/s vs.(7.6±5.0)ml/s,(137.4± 146.2)ml vs.(105.2 ± 135.9)ml] (P ＞ 0.05 for each).The outcomes of TURP were assessed by the above mentioned parameters at 3 months postoperatively;IPSS、IPSS-S、IPSS-V were regarded as successful if they improved more than 50％,QOL was successful if it was improved more than 3,fQmax successful if it was improved 5ml/s.The change and successful improvement rates of the above mentioned parameters were compared between DU and non-DU group.Through receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC) analysis,patients were categorized into mild DU and severe DU group and compared the successful improvement rates between the two groups.Results Both DU group and non-DU group improved significantly in IPSS,IPSS-S,IPSS-V,QOL,fQmax,PVR at 3 months postoperatively (P ＜ 0.05)and the two groups differed significantly in those parameters [(8.6 ± 7.3) vs.(4.4 ±4.5),(5.0 ± 3.5) vs.(3.6 ±2.8),(3.6 ±5.1)vs.(0.9 ± 2.3),(2.3 ±1.5) vs.(1.5 ± 1.0),(11.5 ±6.9) ml/s vs.(16.3 ± 6.9) ml/s,(48.4 ± 65.6) ml vs.(23.6 ± 25.6) ml] (P ＜ 0.05 for each).In regard to the successful improvement rates of IPSS,IPSS-S,IPSS-V,QOL,fQ DU group was less successful than non-DU group [70.2％ (33/47)vs.90.9％ (100/110),51.1％ (24/47)vs.73.6％ (81/110),74.5％ (35/47)vs.93.6％ (103/110),59.6％ (28/47)vs.83.6％ (92/110),42.6％ (20/47)vs.81.8％ (90/110),P ＜0.05 for each].Youden index was maximum when BCI equaled to 82.There were significant differences in the successful improvement rates of IPSS and IPSS-V between mild DU (82 ≤ BCI ＜ 100) and severe DU (BCI ＜ 82) group [82.8％ (24/29) vs.50.0％ (9/18),86.2％ (25/29) vs.55.6％ (10/18),P ＜ 0.05 for each),no significant differences in IPSS-S and fQmax [58.6％ (17/29) vs.38.9％ (7/18),48.3％ (14/29) vs.33.3％ (6/18),P ＞ 0.05 for each].Conclusions Benign prostatic obstruction patients with DU can achieve improvement in both subjective and objective parameters after TURP,but patients without DU can get more improvement.BPO patients with severe DU patients show a worse improvement of the voiding symptom.Surgeons should have adequate communication with the patients and inform them of appropriate expectations.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:With the development of the oral cavity planting technology, dental implants have been strongly retained and stabilized, characterized as both aesthetic appearance and functional achievements. Especial y, they are accepted by more and more patients due to no damage to adjacent teeth. However, diabetes may not only lead to periodontal disease, but also result in delayed healing of the oral mucosa and alveolar bone as wel as infection. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the relationship between diabetes and peri-implantitis, and focus on the maintenance of dental implants for diabetic patients. METHODS:A computer retrieval of PubMed and CNKI databases was performed for relevant articles published from January 1980 to January 2016 using the keywords of“diabetes;peri-implantitis”in English and Chinese, respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:We confirm that diabetes is a relative contraindication to implant restoration, but the use of a series of methods that ensure the successful osseointegration, including blood glucose control, strictly prohibiting early loading or multi-implant restoration for single alveolar bone, anti-infection, implant surface modification, can make high success rate for diabetic patients. This brings the gospel to diabetic patients who hope to solve the problem of missing teeth by implant-supported prosthesis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the early diagnosis of patients with T1 and Tis breast cancer,and to ana-lyze and explore the diagnostic efficacy of breast cancer.Methods 242 patients with T1 and Tis breast cancer who received treatment were selected.The diagnostic accuracy and detection rate of two kinds of imaging methods for breast cancer were compared.Results 35(13.46%),91(35.00%),109(41.92%) and 25(9.62%) of the dense breast were classified by the X-ray of the breast.In the detection rate, fat type and a small amount of fiber gland body breast,the detection rate of X ray was significantly higher than that of ultrasound examination,the differences were sta-tistically significant (χ2 =8.74,21.70,all P0.05).For the dense breast,the detection rate of ultrasonography was significantly higher than breast X-ray,and the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =6.64,P0.05).Conclusion For a small amount of T1 and Tis breast cancer patients,the early screening accuracy and detection rate of ultrasound examination is more suitable for the volume of T1 and Tis in patients with breast cancer.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of endovascular embolization for the treatment of cerebellar arteriouvenous malformations (AVMs) associated with aneurysm, and to discuss its technical points. Methods The clinical data of 142 patients with cerebellar AVMs were retrospectively analyzed. Of the 142 patients, 42 had concomitant aneurysms. The patients were divided into concomitant aneurysm group and without aneurysm group. Using univariate and multivariate statistical models, the patient’s gender and age, the presence or absence of hemorrhage, the lesion’s location and size, and the presence or absence of deep venous drainage were analyzed. Results A total of 61 concomitant aneurysms were detected in the 42 patients, which were located within the malformation mass (n=14) or on the feeding artery (n=47). The concomitant aneurysms located in the malformation were closely related to AVM hemorrhage and the deep venous drainage. During the follow-up period after endovascular embolization, no recurrence of bleeding was observed in all the 42 patients. Conclusion In order to reduce the relapse rate of hemorrhage, the formulation of therapeutic measures should be based on the management of the concomitant aneurysm when endovascular embolization treatment is employed for AVM associated with aneurysm.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of stent-assisted coiling in the treatment of unruptured vertebral dissecting aneurysm. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 59 consecutive patients with unruptured vertebral dissecting aneurysms that underwent endovascular treatment. 31 patients received single stent-assisted coiling, 28 patients received multiple stent-assisted coiling. Results Clinical outcome was favorable in 56 of the 59 patients, the modified Rankin Scale score had no difference in both groups (P = 0.24). The immediate obliteration grade in multiple-stent group was higher than that in single-stent group (75.0% vs. 41.9%, P=0.010). What′s more, the recurrence rate was lower in multiple-stent group (0% vs. 19.4%, P = 0.043). Conclusions Stent-assisted coiling in the treatment of unruptured vertebral dissecting aneurysm is safe and effective , multilayer disposition of stents with coils will decrease the complications and facilitate the aneurysmal occlusion. Larger , prospective studies are necessary to explore the long-term outcomes of reconstruction therapy.
