However, in clinical work, patients with limited cervical spine activity after single open door laminoplasty are often encountered, and the direct contact with the adjacent vertebral arch can be observed in the postoperative X-ray of the anterior and lateral cervical spine, which is called the adjacent vertebral arch bone impact, which is one of the important causes of the limited cervical spine movement. In recent years, there have been many reports on the prevention of bone impact, although the short-term clinical effect is significant, but long-term clinical efficacy to be further study, and the cause and the pathogenesis of bone impact is no consensus, this paper on the surgery of adjacent vertebral arch impact epidemiology, biomechanics, clinical performance, surgical effect and improvement.

Linear measurement of digital pelvic of normal Tibetan nationality female in Lhasa / 解剖学报

Objective To explore the range of normal female pelvic diameter lines in Tibetan nationality. Methods The subjects were Tibetan nationality female who underwent pelvic CT examination in the Radiology Department from January 2016 to December 2019 at the General Hospital of the Tibet Military Region of PLA. Ninty-six samples between the ages of 22 and 65 years, with an average age (46.06±11.42)years were recruited. Mimics 19.0 software was used to construct the digital three-dimensional model of pelvis, and to measure transverse diameter(TD), obstetric conjugate(OC), interspinous distance(ISD), sagittal midpelvic diameter(SMD), intertuberous distance(ITD), sagittal outlet diameter(SOD),diagonal conjugate diameter(DCD),sacrum length(SL), penal height(PH).Analysis of variance was used to compare different age groups, and Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship between age and pelvic diameter. Results The linear measurement of TD was (132.08±6.15) mm, OC was (112.44±9.43) mm, ISD was (107.30±8.70), SMD was (129.06±7.73) mm, ITD was (123.02±12.08) mm, SOD was (118.80±8.87) mm, DCD was (127.49±9.80) mm, SL was (102.56±10.88) mm and PH was (36.57±4.57) mm.Cluster analysis showed that Lhasa Tibetans were closest to Uygurs. Conclusion The close clustering relationship between Tibetans and Uygurs in Lhasa suggests that there is a possibility of gene exchange between Tibetans and Uygurs in Hotan area in ancient times. The pelvic diameter of Tibetan women in Lhasa has changed significantly. Narrower OC, SL and PH make the pelvis flat, which is more and more detrimental to natural childbirth.

[Abstract] Objective To explore the relationship between supratentorial area (STA), posterior fossa area (PFA) and intracranial area (ICA) of normal adult Tibetans with age and gender. Methods The subjects of this study were native Tibetan adults living in Lhasa. Totally 158 sample populations were between the ages of 20 and 59 years, with an average age (36. 60 ± 10. 75) years, including 64 males and 94 females. Siemens MAGNETOM ESSENZA 1. 5T magnetic resonance scanner was used to scan with 3D-fSPGR sequence, and the images obtained by scanning were stored in DICOM format and imported into 3D Medical medical image processing software, and region of interest was delineated by using the software’s own toolkit. STA, PFA and ICA were measured on T1WI mid-sagittal imaging, and the ratios of PFA / STA, STA / ICA and PFA / ICA were calculated. In order to eliminate the influence of individual differences in skull size on brain structure, this paper corrected the STA and PFA with the same level of ICA, and obtained the relativity of supratentorial area (RSTA) and relativity of posterior fossa area (RPFA). Results The STA was (127. 91 ± 9. 84) cm

Clinical diagnosis and treatment of multiple pulmonary nodules / 中华肿瘤杂志

CT screening has markedly reduced the lung cancer mortality in high-risk population and increased the detection of early-stage pulmonary neoplasms, including multiple pulmonary nodules, especially those with a ground-glass appearance on CT. Multiple primary lung cancer (MPLC) constitutes a specific subtype of lung cancer with indolent biological behaviors, which is predominantly early-stage adenocarcinoma. Although MPLC progresses slowly with rare lymphatic metastasis, existence of synchronous lesions and distributed location of these nodules still pose difficulty for the management of such patients. One single operation is usually insufficient to eradicate all neoplastic lesions, whereas repeated surgical procedures bring about another dilemma: whether clinical benefits of surgical treatment outweigh loss of pulmonary function following multiple operations. Therefore, despite the anxiety for treatment among MPLC patients, whether and how to treat the patient should be assessed meticulously. Currently there is a heated discussion upon the timing of clinical intervention, operation mode and the application of local therapy in MPLC. Based on clinical experience of our multiple disciplinary team, we have summarized and commented on the evaluation, surgical treatment, non-surgical local treatment, targeted therapy and immunotherapy of MPLC in this article to provide further insight into this field.

Survey of hyperuricemia and related factors among elderly in a community of Shanghai / 中华全科医师杂志

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of hyperuricemia (HUA), patients′ awareness of HUA, and related factors among elderly in community.Methods:The health check-up data of 6 897 residents aged over 65 years in Gumei Community of Shanghai were collected from January 2019 to January 2020. There were 1 156 subject with increased serum uric acid levels (HUA group) and 5 741 with normal uric acid levels (non-HUA group). The differences of clinical indicators between HUA group and non-HUA group were analyzed and the risk factors of HUA was determined by multivariate logistic stepwise regression. A questionnaire survey on the knowledge of HUA and the adoption of relevant health behaviors was conducted among HUA patients.Results:The overall prevalence was 16.8% (1 156/6 897) in this population. The prevalence in males was significantly higher than that in females[26.4%(842/3 195) vs. 8.5%(314/3 702), P<0.001); and the prevalence in females increased with age (χ 2=7.56, P=0.023). Body mass index(BMI), waist circumference(WC), total cholesterol(TC), triglyceride(TG), serum creatinine, alanine aminotransferase(ALT) and albumin/urine creatinine ratio(UACR) in the HUA group were significantly higher than those in the non-HUA group, while estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) and high-density lipoprotein(HDL) were lower than those in the non-HUA group (all P<0.01). The prevalence of hypertension, decreased renal function, overweight or obesity, abdominal obesity, fatty liver and renal cyst in HUA group was significantly higher than that in non-HUA group (all P<0.01). High values of TG, low-density lipoprotein(LDL), WC, hypertension and fatty liver were risk factors for HUA( OR=1.14, 1.20, 1.03, 1.43, 2.19; P<0.01); while female gender, eGFR, HDL and glycosylated hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c) were protective factors for HUA( OR=0.32, 0.94, 0.65, 0.78; P<0.01). The questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 090 HUA patients, and the results showed that 73.2% (798 cases) were aware of the disease after the health check-up results released; only 30.9% (337 cases) knew the diagnostic criteria of HUA, 21.1% (230 cases) knew that HUA needed life-long follow-up care, 56.3% (614 cases), 49.2% (536 cases) and 47.9% (522 cases) thought that HUA should eat less seafood, broth and soya bean products, 17.0%(185 cases) were atcohol drinker and the awareness rates of above questions in patients with gout were higher than those in patients without gout ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The study shows that the prevalence of HUA among the elderly in Gumei community of Shanghai is high, and the HUA related knowledge levels and health behavior performance are not ideal, especially for HUA patients without gout, therefore health education should be strengthened for elderly residents in the community.

Establishment and verification of prediction model for benign or malignant of≤20 mm solitary pulmonary nodules / 中华放射学杂志

Objective:To establish and verify the prediction model of benign or malignant of solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs≤20 mm) based on artificial intelligence.Methods:Totally 338 SPNs (≤20 mm) from 279 patients, confirmed by operation and pathology, were selected in Zhongshan Hospital Xiamen University from November 2018 to May 2020. Clinical data (age, gender, smoking history, individual and family history of malignancy), image features (maximum diameter, minimum diameter, solid proportion, volume, lobulation sign, burr sign, vacuole sign, cavity sign, pleural indentation sign, and radiomic features (maximum CT value, minimum CT value, average CT value, median CT value, CT value standard deviation, skewness, peak, energy, entropy) were analyzed retrospectively. All the data of patients were randomly divided into training set (271 SPNs) and test set (67 SPNs). In the training set, the clinical, image features and radiomic features were first selected by the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, then the independent risk factors of SPN (≤20 mm) were screened out by multi-variate logistic regression analysis, and the nomogram prediction models were constructed. Finally, the data of test set were used to verify the prediction model by the ROC curve and calibration curve (CC).Results:In the training set of 271 SPNs, 81 SPNs were benign and 190 malignant. After analysis of LASSO regression and multi-factor logistics regression, the independent predictors of benign or malignant SPN were age, gender, largest diameter, vacuole sign and solid proportion. The prediction model was P=e x/(1+e x), x=-2.583+0.027×age+1.519×gender+0.127×maximum diameter-2.132×solid proportion+1.720×vacuole sign. The results of the model showed that the area under curve (AUC) of ROC was 0.850, and the sensitivity was 73.7%, specificity was 82.7% and accuracy was 82.3%. In the test set of 67 SPNs, 22 SPNs were benign and 45 malignant. The results showed that the AUC of ROC was 0.882, and the sensitivity was 82.2%, specificity was 81.8% and accuracy was 85.1%. The calibration nomogram of prediction model showed that CC from training set or test set well coincided with its individual ideal curve ( Ptraining=0.688, Ptest=0.618). Conclusion:Prediction model of benign or malignant SPN ≤20 mm is established based on AI; it can obtain the prediction probability and has good diagnostic efficiency.

Clinical application and long-term safety of hydroxychloroquine in rheumatic diseases / 中华风湿病学杂志

Objective:To explore the clinical application and long-term safety of hydroxychloroquine sulfate (HCQ) in the treatment of rheumatic diseases.Methods:A multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted between August 2017 and August 2018 in a random sample of eleven medical institutions of rheumatology and immunology in China. Patients who took HCQ for more than 3 months were enrolled into this study. The cumulative dose and long-term side effects of HCQ were recorded. The changes of laboratory indexes before and after treatment with HCQ were analyzed. Categorical variables were presented with counts and proportions, and evaluated by Chi-square test. Continuous parametric data were presented as Mean±standard deviation, and evaluated by Student's t test or Mann-Whitney U test. P-values less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results:A total of 886 patients with rheumatic diseases were enrolled into this study, including 505 cases with systemic lupus erythematosus (57.0%), 210 cases with rheumatoid arthritis (23.7%), 80 cases with Sj?gren's syndrome (9.0%), 57 cases with undifferentiated connective tissue disease (6.4%), 12 cases of systemic vasculitis (1.4%), 10 cases of mixed connective tissue disease (1.1%), 7 cases of myositis (0.8%) and 5 cases with systemic sclerosis (0.6%). The most common long-term side effects of HCQ was skin or mucous lesions (12.4%) and vision problems (8.0%). Other adverse reactions included problems of digestive system (3.0%), nervous system (2.1%), musculoskeletal system (1.1%) and cardiovascular system (0.9%). 140 cases (15.8%) had stopped taking HCQ during the treatment. More than half of them decided to stop taking medicine by themselves. Fifty-four patients (6.1%) stopped using HCQ due to side effects while 24 of them took it again, and another 12 patients (1.4%) stopped the drug due to remission of illness. Patients were divided into three groups according to the cumulative dose of HCQ: less than 500 g, 500-1 000 g and more than 1 000 g respectively. There was significant difference in the incidence of long-term side effects among the three groups ( χ2=6.382, P=0.041). The last group (more than 1 000 g) suffered the highest incidence of long-term adverse reactions (37.1%). No severe adverse drug reactions were observed in this study. Conclusion:Hydroxychloroquine is widely used in the treatment of rheumatic diseases. The incidence of long-term side effects is 20.4%, is 6.1% lead to drug withdrawal, which are especially related to the cumulative doses. It should be adjusted properly according to the clinical application.

Effect of chemokines CXCL9 and CXCL10 on bone erosion in patients with rheumatoid arthritis / 北京大学学报(医学版)

OBJECTIVE@#To detect the serum level of soluble chemokines CXCL9 and CXCL10 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and to analyze their correlation with bone erosion, as well as the clinical significance in RA.@*METHODS@#In the study, 105 cases of RA patients, 90 osteoarthritis (OA) patients and 25 healthy controls in Peking University People's Hospital were included. All the clinical information of the patients was collected, and the serum CXCL9 and CXCL10 levels of both patients and healthy controls were measured by enzyme-linked immune sorbent assay (ELISA). CXCL9 and CXCL10 levels among different groups were compared. The correlation between serum levels with clinical/laboratory parameters and the occurrence of bone erosion in RA were analyzed. Independent sample t test, Chi square test, Mann-Whitney U test, Spearman's rank correlation and Logistic regression were used for statistical analysis.@*RESULTS@#The levels of CXCL9 and CXCL10 were significantly higher in the RA patients [250.02 (126.98, 484.29) ng/L, 108.43 (55.16, 197.17) ng/L] than in the OA patients [165.05 (75.89, 266.37) ng/L, 69.00 (33.25, 104.74) ng/L] and the health controls [79.47 (38.22, 140.63) ng/L, 55.44 (18.76, 95.86) ng/L] (all P < 0.01). Spearman's correlation analysis showed that the level of serum CXCL9 was positively correlated with swollen joints (SJC), rheumatoid factor (RF) and disease activity score 28 (DAS28) (r=0.302, 0.285, 0.289; P=0.009, 0.015, 0.013). The level of serum CXCL10 was positively correlated with tender joints (TJC), SJC, C-reactive protein (CRP), immunoglobulin (Ig) A, IgM, RF, anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (ACPA), and DAS28 (r=0.339, 0.402, 0.269, 0.266, 0.345, 0.570, 0.540, 0.364; P=0.010, 0.002, 0.043, 0.045, 0.009, < 0.001, < 0.001, 0.006). Serum CXCL9 and CXCL10 levels in the RA patients with bone erosion were extremely higher than those without bone erosion [306.84 (234.02, 460.55) ng/L vs. 149.90 (75.88, 257.72) ng/L, 153.74 (89.50, 209.59) ng/L vs. 54.53 (26.30, 83.69) ng/L, respectively] (all P < 0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that disease duration, DAS28 and serum level of CXCL9 were correlated with bone erosion in the RA patients (P < 0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Serum levels of CXCL9 and CXCL10 were remarkably elevated in patients with RA, and correlated with disease activities and occurrence of bone erosion. Chemokines CXCL9 and CXCL10 might be involved in the pathogenesis and bone destruction in RA.

Study on effect of "Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus" on atherosclerosis in ApoE~(-/-) mice based on liver metabonomics / 中国中药杂志

In this study, ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS)-based liver metabolomics approach was used to explore the mechanism of "Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus" in improving atherosclerosis(AS) of mice with apolipoprotein E gene knockout(ApoE~(-/-)). AS mouse model was induced by high-fat diet. The pathological and biochemical indexes such as the histopathological changes, body weight, liver weight, blood lipid level and inflammatory factors in the liver of mice were determined. The metabolic profiling of mice liver samples was performed with UPLC-Q-TOF-MS. Multiple statistical analysis methods including partial least squares discriminant analysis(PLS-DA) and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA) were employed to screen and identify biomarkers. The levels of related enzymes including LCAT, sPLA2, EPT1 and ACER1 were detected. The results showed that "Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus" significantly reduced the areas of aortic plaque and fat vacuoles of liver in AS mice and decreased the accumulation of lipid droplets and liver coefficient. "Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus" also regulated the levels of blood lipid and inflammatory injury in the liver. The metabolites of the control group, the model group and the "Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus" group could be distinguished significantly. Fifteen potential biomarkers related to AS were discovered and preliminarily identified, seven of which could be regulated by "Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus" in a trend of returning to normal. Metabolic pathway analysis screened out two major metabolic pathways. "Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus" obviously regulated the levels of LCAT, sPLA2, EPT1 and ACER1. It was inferred that "Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus" could play a major role in AS treatment by regulating glycerophospholipid and sphingolipid metabolism disorders in the liver, with the mechanism probably relating to the intervention of the expression of LCAT, sPLA2, EPT1 and ACER1.

Research on the transformation of medical science and technology achievements in the World-class universities in China based on patent perspective / 中华医学科研管理杂志

Objective:To understand the current status and main models of transformation of medical patent in the World-class universities in China, carry out research on the transformation of scientific and technological achievements based on the perspective of patents.Methods:The registration data of assigned medical patent of 42 universities were collected to analyze the overall status of transformation, the cycle and the transfer flow of patent transfer. The main fields and themes involved in the transfer of patented technology are shown by cluster analysis methods. The prominent transfer mode of medical patents in the universities was discovered by analyzing the transferees of assigned patents.Results:Among 42 universities, medical patents transferred within ten years account for approximately 6% of authorized patents, and the average transfer cycle is 28 months, and transferees are business-oriented. The transferred patents cover more topics including hydantoin derivative, fucoidan sulfate, human papilloma virus, brain-computer interface and minimally invasive surgery. 88% of patents are based on the traditional direct patent technology transfer model. In addition, it also includes transfer modes such as transfer through the asset operating company, the spin-offs, the third-party intermediary, the institute, and the technology transfer center.Conclusions:The overall task of building a World-class university is heavier and the demonstration effect is more obvious. However, the status quo is that the proportion of transfer patents of the World-class university is still low, the transfer cycle is long, and the mode of transfer of scientific and technological achievements is relatively single and should be more innovative. The World-class universities should improve the quality of their own scientific and technological achievements, improve the results transformation mechanism, and constantly explore the mode of achievement transformation in a more tailored way.

Mechanism of Action of Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus Herb Pairs Against Hyperlipidemia Based on Network Pharmacology / 中国实验方剂学杂志

Objective:Based on the hyperlipidemia rat model and network pharmacology technology, the mechanism of action of Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus herb pairs against hyperlipidemia was analyzed. Method:The levels of blood lipids and inflammatory factors were measured through prophylactic administration of low, medium and high-dose Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus herb pairs in hyperlipidemia rats. The active ingredients of Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus herb pairs were screened out through Traditional Chinese Medicine System Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP) and text mining. The targets of active ingredients screened through the Swiss Target Prediction, Similarity ensemble approach (SEA), DrugBank database. The disease targets were collected through Therapeutic Target Database (TTD), Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), DrugBank, DisGeNET database. The targets of active ingredients and disease target were integrated, and screened through topological parameters to gain the main candidate targets of Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus herb pairs against hyperlipidemia. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis and the gene ontology (GO) functional enrichment analysis were conducted through ClueGO and Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID), respectively. The traditional Chinese medicine-chemical ingredient-target network model, and the target-pathway network model were constructed through Cytoscape, and their crosstalk target and signal pathway were analyzed. Result:Animal experiments showed that the prophylactic administration of Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus herb pairs significantly reduced the levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in serum of rats with hyperlipidemia, increased high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C) levels, and inhibited the expressions of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). According to the findings, 27 active ingredients, such as mandenol, diosmetin and α-spinasterol, might be the main active ingredients of Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus herb pairs, 16 crosstalk targets and 10 signal pathways might be the main therapeutic targets and pathways, main targeting apolipoprotein A1 (APOA1), apolipoprotein A2 (APOA2), apolipoprotein C3 (APOC3), lipoprotein lipase (LPL), low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) and other crosstalk targets affected cholesterol metabolism, bile secretion, peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) signaling pathway in regulating the lipid level, targeting tumor necrosis factor (TNF), IL-6, interleukin-1β (IL-1β), mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 (MAPK1), C-C motif chemokine 2 (CCL2) and other crosstalk targets affected tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling pathway, Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, interleukin-17 (IL-17) signaling pathway, and hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) signaling pathway in regulating the inflammatory factor level. The DAVID database for GO enrichment analysis showed that the hyperlipidemia was treated mainly through biological processes, such as inflammation, lipid localization, storage and lipid metabolism. Conclusion:These findings can predict the mechanism of action of Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus herb pairs against hyperlipidemia, and provide a theoretical basis for the material basis and clinical application of Trichosanthis Fructus-Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus herb pairs.
