女性致密性骨炎血清骨转换生化标志物水平变化研究

背景 致密性骨炎（OCI）和其他疾病有时难以鉴别，探讨血清骨转换生化标志物可为OCI的鉴别诊断提供依据。 目的 探索女性OCI患者的血清骨转换生化标志物的水平变化及临床意义。 方法 回顾性选取2013年6月至2022年2月在北京积水潭医院门诊及住院诊断为OCI的61例女性患者作为观察组，年龄15~50岁，平均（33.8±6.6）岁，病程2周~15年。选择同期61例女性体检健康者作为对照组，年龄15~48岁，平均（35.6±7.6）岁。比较两组一般临床资料和血清骨转换生化标志物水平，并对血清骨转换生化标志物与病情相关指标进行相关性分析。 结果 观察组血清白蛋白（45.4±2.9）g/L低于对照组（46.5±2.8）g/L（t=2.190，P<0.05）。血清骨转换生化标志物比较结果显示，观察组血清1型胶原羧基末端肽β特殊序列（β-CTX）〔0.28（0.23，0.37）μg/L〕、N-端骨钙素（OC）〔13.1（11.2，16.2）μg/L〕、25-羟维生素D3〔25-（OH）VD3〕〔（14.1±5.1）μg/L〕低于对照组〔0.36（0.29，0.48）μg/L，15.6（13.7，17.3）μg/L，（17.5±6.6）μg/L〕（Z=-2.983、-3.255，t=3.081，P<0.05）。长病程亚组OC水平〔14.6（12.4，18.5）μg/L〕高于短病程亚组〔11.7（10.2，14.0）μg/L〕（Z=-2.407，P<0.05）。多孕亚组β-CTX〔0.25（0.22，0.32）μg/L〕、OC水平〔12.2（10.3，15.0）μg/L〕低于非多孕亚组〔0.33（0.26，0.44）μg/L、13.4（12.0，18.8）μg/L〕（Z=-2.486、-1.897，P<0.05）。相关性分析显示，观察组血清1型前胶原氨基端延长肽（tP1NP）与妊娠次数、生产次数均呈负相关（rs=-0.276、-0.298，P<0.05），OC与体质指数（BMI）、视觉模拟评分法（VAS）评分、妊娠次数均呈负相关（rs=-0.284、-0.374、-0.360，P<0.05），25-（OH）VD3水平与BMI呈正相关（rs=0.275，P<0.05）。 结论 女性OCI患者血清OC、β-CTX水平明显降低，可为鉴别其他疾病提供依据；血清OC水平可以反映OCI患者的严重程度，同时OC水平与患者妊娠次数相关；tP1NP与妊娠次数、生产次数相关。     

Silencing KLF16 inhibits oral squamous cell carcinoma cell proliferation by arresting the cell cycle and inducing apoptosis

Krüppel-like factor 16 (KLF16), a member of the Krüppel-like factor (KLF) family, has been extensively investigated in multiple cancer types. However, the role of KLF16 in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) remains unknown. Thus, we conducted this study to investigate its related mechanism. KLF16 expression in OSCC cell lines was quantified by western blotting. Then, OECM1 and OC3 cells were divided into Blank, siCtrl, siKLF16#1 and siKLF16#2 groups. Subsequently, cell proliferation was detected using 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5 diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assays, cell migration and invasion were detected with wound healing and Transwell assays, and cell cycle distribution and cell apoptosis were detected via flow cytometry. KLF16, p21, CDK4, Cyclin D1 and p-Rb expression was detected by western blotting. Finally, xenograft models were established in nude mice to observe the in vivo effects of KLF16 on OSCC. KLF16 protein expression was upregulated in OSCC cells. Compared to the cells in the Blank group, the OECM1 and OC3 cells in the siKLF16#1 group and siKLF16#2 group exhibited a sharp decrease in proliferation but a remarkable increase in apoptosis. Moreover, the proportion of cells in the G0/G1 phase notably increased and that in the S phase decreased, with evident decreases in cell invasion and migration. Moreover, KLF16, cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4), Cyclin D1 and p-Rb protein expression was upregulated, but p21 expression was downregulated. The mice in the siKLF16#1 and siKLF16#2 xenograft model groups exhibited slower tumour growth and smaller tumours with evident downregulation of Ki67 expression compared to the mice in the Blank group. KLF16 expression was upregulated in OSCC cells, and interfering with KLF16 led to cell cycle arrest, inhibited OSCC cell growth and promoted cell apoptosis.     

股骨转子间骨折的稳定性重建概念演化与研究进展

目的总结近年来股骨转子间骨折在稳定性重建方面的概念演化与研究进展。方法查阅国内外相关文献并结合自身经验，从股骨转子间骨折的解剖特点、稳定型骨折与不稳定型骨折分类、稳定性复位与不稳定性复位、术中加压初始稳定与术后滑动二次稳定、内固定术后稳定性评估、早期下地站立负重等方面进行总结分析。结果股骨转子间骨折发生于股骨颈干骺端转换区，具有天然的内翻不稳定倾向。骨折复位质量是影响后续内固定物安放的最重要前提因素。判断骨折复位质量有对线和对位两方面，对线采用 Garden 指数；在对位方面，随着皮质对位理念（正性、中性、负性）的提出，特别强调前内侧皮质的相互砥住支撑（解剖、正性），是获得骨折稳定性复位的关键，而不再强调后内侧小转子骨块的作用。术后影像学的稳定性评分为早期下地站立负重提供了量化指标。但术中的前内侧皮质支撑复位，在术后头颈骨块滑动获得二次稳定的过程中，仍有皮质对位丢失现象，需研究其危险因素和防范措施。结论股骨转子间骨折在取得良好对线的基础上，只要获得了前内侧皮质的相互砥住和支撑，并用内固定器械维持住，就获得了术后稳定性。术后稳定性评分优良者，可以安全地早期下地负重、站立行走活动。

目的探讨改良内固定融合术治疗成人Ⅱ型痛性足副舟骨（painful accessory navicular，PAN）的疗效。方法2016 年 1 月—2017 年 12 月，采用改良内固定融合术治疗 29 例（37 足）Ⅱ型 PAN。其中男 12 例，女 17 例；年龄 18～50 岁，平均 41.4 岁。扭伤 24 例，无明显诱因 5 例。患者均行 6 个月以上保守治疗，症状无明显改善。术前及末次随访时采用美国矫形足踝协会（AOFAS）中足评分评估临床疗效；X 线片测量跟骨倾斜角、距骨第 1 跖骨角、距舟关节包容角、距骨第 2 跖骨角。结果术后 1 例出现切口浅表感染，经加强换药后愈合；其余患者切口均Ⅰ期愈合，无深部感染或骨髓炎发生。29 例均获随访，随访时间 12～33 个月，平均 25.1 个月。X 线片示关节面均于术后 2～5 个月愈合，平均 3.4 个月。随访期间未见内固定物松动或断裂。末次随访时，AOFAS 疼痛、功能、力线评分及总分以及距舟关节包容角、距骨第 1 跖骨角和距骨第 2 跖骨角均较术前显著改善，差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）；跟骨倾斜角手术前后差异无统计学意义（t=1.097，P=0.276）。 结论采用改良内固定融合术治疗成人Ⅱ型 PAN 可有效缓解症状，患足功能恢复良好，并发症少。     

Immunogenicity of next-generation HPV vaccines in non-human primates: Measles-vectored HPV vaccine versus Pichia pastoris recombinant protein vaccine

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the most common sexually transmitted disease worldwide. HPVs are oncogenic small double-stranded DNA viruses that are the primary causal agent of cervical cancer and other types of cancers, including in the anus, oropharynx, vagina, vulva, and penis. Prophylactic vaccination against HPV is an attractive strategy for preventing cervical cancer and some other types of cancers. However, there are few safe and effective vaccines against HPV infections. Current first-generation commercial HPV vaccines are expensive to produce and deliver.The goal of this study was to develop an alternate potent HPV recombinant L1-based vaccines by producing HPV virus-like particles into a vaccine that is currently used worldwide. Live attenuated measles virus (MV) vaccines have a well-established safety and efficacy record, and recombinant MV (rMV) produced by reverse genetics may be useful for generating candidate HPV vaccines to meet the needs of the developing world.We studied in non-human primate rMV-vectored HPV vaccine in parallel with a classical alum adjuvant recombinant HPV16L1 and 18L1 protein vaccine produced in Pichia pastoris. A combined prime-boost approach using both vaccines was evaluated, as well as immune interference due to pre-existing immunity against the MV.The humoral immune response induced by the MV, Pichia-expressed vaccine, and their combination as priming and boosting approaches was found to elicit HPV16L1 and 18L1 specific total IgG and neutralizing antibody titres. Pre-existing antibodies against measles did not prevent the immune response against HPV16L1 and 18L1.     

Effect of a Device-Free Compressed Shell Fixation Method on Hepatic Respiratory Movement: Analysis for Respiratory Amplitude of the Liver and Internal Motions of a Fiducial Marker

Purpose

Suppression of respiratory movement of the liver would be desirable for high-precision radiation therapy for liver tumors. We aimed to investigate the effect of our original device-free compressed shell fixation method and breathing instruction on suppression of respiratory movement. The characteristics of liver motion based on the movement of a fiducial marker were also analyzed.
