ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:After the internal fixation of cannulated screws in femoral neck fractures,because the affected limb is often unable to bear weight in the short term and the implants with high stiffness have a stress shielding effect on the fracture end,it is easy to cause osteoporosis of the affected limb and changes in the biomechanical distribution of the proximal femur,the incidence of osteonecrosis of the femoral head is high after surgery.At present,few studies have been conducted on the biomechanical effects of osteoporosis at the proximal end of the femur occurring after femoral neck fracture surgery on femoral neck fracture treated with cannulated screws. OBJECTIVE:Using finite element analysis,to investigate the biomechanical effects of osteoporosis occurring after femoral neck fracture surgery on femoral neck fracture treated with cannulated screws and explore the role of biomechanical factors in osteonecrosis of the femoral head. METHODS:Based on the obtained CT scan data of the femur in a patient with a femoral neck fracture,a proximal femoral model for internal fixation for femoral neck fracture was established by Mimics 19.0,3-Matic,UG 11.0,Hypermesh 14.0,and Abaqus software.One finite element model of the proximal femur without osteoporosis and three finite element models of the proximal femur with osteoporosis were analyzed using Abaqus software.The stress,contact pressure,displacement peak and cloud map under different components of the four models were measured and analyzed,and the internal stress changes and distribution of the femoral head were compared and analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The stresses and contact pressures of the femoral head and lower anterior cannulated screws varied more with the degree of osteoporosis.The peak displacement of the four models increased slowly with the degree of osteoporosis.By one-way analysis of variance,there was no significant effect of the degree of osteoporosis on the peak stress,contact pressure,and displacement of the different components.The internal stress distribution of the femoral head changed with the degree of osteoporosis.Changes in the biomechanical environment of the proximal femur have an important impact on osteonecrosis of the femoral head.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:Some studies have found that local application of alendronate can promote osteogenesis,but less is reported on the process of distraction osteogenesis. OBJECTIVE:To observe the promoting effect of alendronate on rapid mandibular distraction in a rabbit model and explore its possible mechanism. METHODS:Thirty-six male New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into groups A,B and C(n=12 per group)after operation and rapid distraction(3-day delay period followed by 3-day distraction at 1.5 mm/12 hours).At the 1st,3rd and 7th days of the consolidation period,animal were injected with 200 μg/kg alendronate in group A and 100 μg/kg alendronate in group B,while those in group C were treated as controls.CT scanning and dual energy X-ray bone mineral density measurement were performed at 4 and 8 weeks of the consolidation period.After the radionuclide scanning was completed at the 4th week,several animals were sacrificed and the samples were collected for western blot assay and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase staining.A three-point bending test was performed after the animals were sacrificed at the 8th week. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:CT results showed that bone formation in the distraction space of group B was significantly better than that in groups A and C.At the 4th week,the bone mineral density in group B was(0.092±0.010)g/cm2,which was 1.26 times higher than that in group A(P＜0.001)and 1.28 times higher than that in group C(P＜0.001).At the 8th week,the bone mineral density in group B was(0.175±0.029)g/cm2,which was 1.38 times higher than that in group A(P＜0.001)and 1.45 times higher than that in group C(P＜0.001).Tartrate resistant acid phosphatase staining showed that the number of osteoclast-like cells in group C were 2.83 times more than that in group A(P＜0.001)and 2.21 times more than that in group B(P＜0.001).The radionuclide intensity was higher in group C than in groups A and B.Western blot assay results showed that the expression of Runx2 was significantly stronger in group B than in groups A and C.The maximum biomechanical load in group B was(158.48±23.21)N,which was 1.26 times higher than that in group A(P=0.007)and 1.31 times higher than that in group C(P=0.003).To conclude,the low concentration of alendronate may promote rapid distraction osteogenesis of the rabbit mandible by inhibiting osteoclast signals.
ABSTRACT
The theory of "liver opens at the eyes" was first seen in Yellow Emperor's Internal Canon of Medicine， which is the ancient people's summary of the connection between the liver and the eyes. The theory of "liver opens at the eyes" suggests the characteristic of "co-damage and co-recover of liver and eyes". It has been found in clinical practice that liver diseases and eye diseases often occur together， and "liver and eyes co-recover" is an ideal choice. The key to achieving "liver and eyes co-recover" is to analyze its pharmacological material basis and mechanism. With the development of modern medicine， more and more evidence indicates that the liver and eyes have complex and close relationships in physiological and pathological aspects. In a pathological state， there is a phenomenon of "liver and eyes co-damage"， and after the intervention of traditional Chinese medicine， "liver and eyes co-recover" occurs. "Liver and eyes co-damage and co-recover" can be explained through the "co-material basis and co-action mechanism". On this basis， the research group tentatively proposed that the liver and eyes had "four common characteristics" （4CCs）， namely "co-damage， co-recover， co-material basis， and co-action mechanism" from the theoretical connotation of traditional Chinese medicine， clinical practice， and molecular biology. Additionally， the group also took the intervention of Prunella vulgaris， traditional Chinese medicine， for removing liver fire and improving eyesight on immune liver injury （ILI） and allergic conjunctivitis （AC） as examples to analyze 4CCs. This project aims to deeply analyze the scientific connotation of the theory of "liver opens at the eyes"， reveal the common characteristics and biological essence of liver and eyes， explore a new research paradigm of "liver and eyes co-recover"， and provide a reference for the study of common problems of multi-organ associated diseases.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#Exploring the effectiveness of using EEG linear and nonlinear features for accessing mental workload in different tasks.@*METHODS@#Working memory tasks with different information types and various mental loads were designed based on N-Back paradigm. EEG signals from 18 normal adults were acquired when tasks were being performed. Linear and nonlinear features of EEGs were then extracted. Indices that can effectively reflect mental workload levels were selected by using multivariate analysis of variance statistical approach.@*RESULTS@#With the increment of task load, power of frontal Theta, Theta/Alpha ratio, and sample entropies (scales>10) in parietal regions increased significantly first and decreased slightly then, while the power of central-parietal Alpha decreased significantly first and increased slightly then. No difference in power of frontal Theta, central-parietal Alpha, and sample entropies (scales>10) of parietal regions were found between verbal and object tasks, as well as between two spatial tasks. No difference of frontal Theta/Alpha ratio was found in all the four tasks.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The results can provide evidence for the mental workload evaluation in tasks with different information types.

Objective:To investigate the value of serum progranulin (PGRN)in the clinical diagnosis of adult sepsis patients.Methods:One hundred and eighty-seveninfection patients admitted to the intensive care unit(ICU) of Affiliated Dongfeng Hospital, Hubei University of Medicinewere divided into non-sepsis group(94 patients) and sepsis group (93 patients)according to the third international consensus definitions for sepsis and septic shock. Patients in the sepsis group were divided into two subgroups according to the degrees of infection: septic shock group (46 patients) and non-septic shock group (47 patients). The levels of serum PGRN, procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and lactic acid (Lac) were compared between the two groups and subgroups within 1 h into the ICU, as well as the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ) and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) scores within 24 h into the ICU. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the relationship between PGRN and sepsis. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of the subject was drawn. The diagnostic value of PGRN in sepsis was evaluated and compared with PCT, CRP, IL-6, TNF-α and Lac.Results:The levels of PGRN, PCT, CRP, IL-6, TNF-α, Lac and APACHEⅡ, SOFA scores in the sepsis group were higher than those in the non-sepsis group: (129.25 ± 17.81) μg/L vs. (43.17 ± 7.68) μg/L, (5.92 ± 0.82) μg/L vs. (1.34 ± 0.17) μg/L, (64.07 ± 10.51) mg/L vs. (37.18 ± 5.44) mg/L, (111.68 ± 13.17) ng/L vs. (32.41 ± 5.61) ng/L, (86.06 ± 12.19) ng/L vs. (46.44 ± 7.63) ng/L, (2.96 ± 0.45) mmol/L vs. (1.47 ± 0.22) mmol/L, (23.62 ± 4.24) scores vs. (11.74 ± 2.07) scores, (14.84 ± 2.42) scores vs. (1.36 ± 0.23) scores, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The levels of PGRN, PCT, CRP, IL-6, TNF-α, Lac in the septic shock group were higher than those in non-septic shock group:(143.29 ± 13.54) μg/L vs. (116.59 ± 10.73) μg/L, (7.64 ± 1.17) μg/L vs. (4.24 ± 0.59) μg/L, (74.49 ± 10.46) mg/L vs. (53.89 ± 8.41) mg/L, (124.48 ± 14.37) ng/L vs.(99.16 ± 13.61) ng/L, (95.91 ± 14.75) ng/L vs. (76.42 ± 11.24) ng/L, (3.52 ± 0.46) mmol/L vs. (2.45 ± 0.39) mmol/L, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that SODA scores and serum PGRN, PCT, CRP, IL-6, Lac levels were independent risk factors for sepsis ( P<0.05). The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of PGRN was higher than that of CRP, IL-6, TNF-α and Lac for predicting the occurrence of sepsis in infection patients ( P<0.05). The AUC of PGRN was higher than that of CRP, IL-6, TNF-α and Lac for predicting the occurrence of septic shock in infection patients ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The levels of serum PGRN is a good biomarker for the diagnosis of sepsis and could reflect the severity. It has certain clinical value.
ABSTRACT
Objective To establish the model of rabbit vena arterialization, so as to investigate the difference of mechanical parameters between arteries and veins as well as before and after arterialization. Methods Twenty-four rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group (n=12) and control group (n=12). By establishing the rabbit vena arterialization model for experimental group, the arterial blood could flow into the veins. After model creation, the vein would be removed 4 weeks after surgery. In the meantime, the external jugular veins and cephalic arteries extracted from control group were acquired. Compressive pressurizing and stretching tests on all vessels were conducted at the same time(including arteries, veins and arterialized veins). Observation was supported by HE staining and immune tissue chemical techniques. Results There were no deaths among the 24 rabbits, with unobstructed blood flow in veins. With the increase of intravascular pressure, the outer diameter of veins changed at first and then stabilized at a fixed value. The elasticity of veins was worse than that of arteries. The external diameter of veins increased rapidly with internal pressure of veins increasing and reached its extreme elasticity. Comparatively, the elasticity of arteries increased slowly. HE staining results showed that thickness of the vascular wall was thinner, while it became thicker after vena arterialization. After vena arterialization, proliferating cell nuclear antigen（PCNA） and α-actin showed positive results. It further proved that proliferation existed among smooth muscle cells, and veins showed the tendency of restenosis again. The elasticity of veins after transplantation into the arterial system was improved compared with that before transplantation. Conclusions Accompanied by the increasing pressure, the vein could reach its elasticity extremity faster than the artery. Under such a long-term high pressure, vein intima was vulnerable. After vena arterialization, with the gradual thickening of vein intima, the tendency of vessel restenosis was obvious, and the elasticity of veins has been improved after transplantation.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the diagnostic and prognostic assessment value of serum interlukin(IL)-35 combined with Klotho protein in acute kidney injury(AKI) with sepsis.Methods:One hundred and seventy-five patients with sepsis admitted to Affliated Dongfeng Hospital, Hubei University of Medicine from January 2017 to May 2019 were enrolled and divide into AKI group(86 cases) and non-AKI group (89 cases) according to the standard of Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KIDGO) and groups were divided based on the prognosis of AKI clinical outcome. The levels of serum creatine (Scr), serum IL-35 and Klotho protein of different groups were compared. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) of serum IL-35, Klotho protein and IL-35 combined with Klotho protein were drawn, and the value of serum IL-35, Klotho protein and IL-35 combined with Klotho protein in the diagnosis and prognosis prediction of sepsis AKI were evaluated.Results:The level of Scr in the AKI group was higher than that in the non-AKI group [(264.43 ± 67.86) μmol/L vs. (64.76 ± 22.41) μmol/L], while the levels of IL-35 and Klotho protein were lower than those in the non-AKI group [(69.37 ± 28.15)ng/L vs. (94.74 ± 35.32) ng/L, (142.31 ± 32.55) ng/L vs. (256.23 ± 36.25) ng/L], and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). In the patients that had AKI, those who were in AKI phase one, without continuous renal dialysis or whose renal functions recovered at the end point had relatively lower Scr level and higher IL-35 and Klotho protein levels, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of AKI and staged AKI predicted by IL-35 combined with Klotho protein levels were 0.918 and 0.899 respectively, and the area under the curve (AUC) of continuous renal replacement therapy needed in the AKI patients and their renal function recovery predicted by IL-35 combined with Klotho protein levels were 0.954 and 0.950 respectively, all higher than the single indicator, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:IL-35 and Klotho protein levels are good biomarkers in diagnosing the patients′ sepsis complicated by AKI as well as the prognosis. The combination of the two index will further improve the prediction effect.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To explore the correlation between human leukocyte antigen( HLA)-B~* 13 : 01 allele and liver dysfunction in patients with occupational medicamentosa-like dermatitis due to trichloroethylene( OMDT). METHODS: Twenty patients with OMDT were chosen as study subjects by using a convenient sampling method. The sequence-based genotyping method was used for detecting HLA-B~* 13 : 01 allele in the DNA samples from peripheral blood of all study subjects. The serum levels of total protein,albumin,total bilirubin,direct bilirubin and alanine aminotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase activities in patients were examined. The correlation between the number of HLA-B~* 13 : 01 alleles and the liver function indices was also analyzed. RESULTS: There were 16 patients carrying HLA-B~* 13: 01 allele. The serum total protein in the HLA-B~* 13: 01 carriers was higher than that of non-carriers( P < 0. 05). The serum total protein was positively correlated with the number of patients carrying HLA-B~* 13: 01 alleles( P < 0. 05). CONCLUSION: The degree of liver function damage in OMDT patients may be related to carrying the HLA-B~* 13: 01 allele.

ABSTRACT
Muhidrug resistance (MDR) is one of the important reasons for the failure of clinical anticancer drugs,involving multiple mechanisms.Among them,the classical MDR mechanism mediated by P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is closely related to the formation of MDR,which can excrete intracellular chemotherapeutic drugs through the "drug pump" effect and significantly reduce the therapeutic effect.Curcumin is mainly extracted from the underground rhizome of Chinese medicine turmeric,with a wide range of pharmacological activity.Recent studies have found that curcumin also has a role in reversing the MDR of the tumor,by inhibiting both P-gp function and expression,and this process involves a variety of signal paths.
