Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the survival rate of porous tantalum rod implantation in the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), evaluate its clinical effect and imaging results. METHODS From January 2008 to December 2013, porous tantalum rod implantation for ONFH was performed in two institutions. Statistical analysis of operation data, including operation time, blood loss and blood transfusion were recorded. RESULTS 52 hips received complete follow-up, the average follow-up time was 85.7 months (60-132 months). 24 hips turned to THA at the end of follow-up (46.2%), the average time was 44.3 ± 32.8 months, and the average Harris hip score before THA was 57.1 ± 7.6. Cox proportional-hazards model revealed that Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) stage (P = 0.017), bone marrow edema (P = 0.006) and age > 40 years (P = 0.043) were independent risk factors for conversion to THA. CONCLUSION ARCO stage, age and bone marrow edema were risk factors for the failure of porous tantalum rod implantation to convert to THA.

Abstract
To construct and develop the home self-sampling processes of cervical human papillomavirus (HPV) detection and evaluate its application effect. An integrated HPV self-sampling detection platform is scheduled to include three terminals: a user terminal, a detection terminal and a medical terminal. It covers a wide range of functions of self-sampling kit acquisition of user, sample logistics tracking, inspection services, report query, medical consultation, health management, and follow-up tracking. A total of 8 053 users applied for self-sampling kits and all completed online user information registration from January to November 2020. The average age of users ranged from 17 to 84 with a median age of 42 years old. Registered users of the platform were distributed in Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Hebei, Shanxi, Shanghai, Ningxia, Anhui, Zhejiang, Inner Mongolia, Beijing and Xinjiang. 8 045 users completed self-sampling with a kit return rate of 99.9%. Six users lost the kits during the express delivery, and 2 users had the kits contaminated due to improper application; The amount of exfoliated cells collected from 8 045 cases in the sample kits were all within the endogenous internal standard of the nucleic acid kit, and the qualified rate of kits was 100%. The proportion of test report issued by the detection platform within 3 d accounts for 96.93% (7 799/8 054). Among the 763 positive users, 742 completed 6-month reexamination, with a reexamination rate of 97.25%. Unfortunately, 21 cases were lost to follow-up. Taken together, HPV home-based self-sampling is simple, convenient and efficient in use. It can expand the coverage of cervical cancer screening and may help promote HPV screening.

Abstract
Chinese traditional medicine compound is the main form of Chinese medicine clinical application. The elucidation of the effective components of traditional Chinese medicine is one of the key scientific issues to promote the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine. At present, there are many research ideas on the effective components of traditional Chinese medicine compounds. By analyzing the current status and existing problems of existing research ideas, the author proposes a "double reduction network pharmacology"(2 R network pharmacology) research method based on "prediction of dominant components-potential target selection". Chemical components with good properties were selected by ADMET property prediction technology, and compared with the blood components and target organ components to determine the dominant components with potential therapeutic effect, that is "reducing constituents"; the potential core regulatory pathway of traditional Chinese medicine compound was enriched by RNA-Seq technology combined with network database, and then the target of traditional Chinese medicine compound was mined based on the signal pathway, that is "reducing targets". To improve the efficiency and accuracy of effective component screening, the network relationship of "component target" was established by the related technology of network pharmacology. The purpose of this study is to provide practical research ideas and methods for clarifying the effective components of traditional Chinese medicine, revealing the law of compatibility of traditional Chinese medicine and clarifying the target of drug action.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Si-Miao-Yong-An decoction (SMYAD), a classical traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formula, has been used to treat various cardiovascular diseases in clinics. AIM OF THE STUDY The aim of this study is to investigate the effective combinatorial components from SMYAD and its mechanism regarding the intervention on myocardial hypertrophy. MATERIALS AND METHODS SMYAD constituents absorbed in rat plasma and heart were identified using UHPLC Q-Exactive-Orbitrap MS/MS. The identified constituents in SMYAD were further analyzed using ADMET (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity) prediction and molecular docking. The effective constituents were identified using isoproterenol (ISO)-induced H9c2 cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, and neochlorogenic acid (NCA), chlorogenic acid (CA), cryptochlorogenic acid (CCA), isochlorogenic acid C (ICAC), angoroside C (AGDC), isochlorogenic acid A (ICAA), sweroside (SRD), and harpagide (HPD) in SMYAD extract were quantified by HPLC for compatibility. Finally, anti-hypertrophic activities of candidate effective combinatorial components, which were prepared according to the determined molar concentration ratio of effective constituents using reference substance solution, were analyzed using immunofluorescence staining and Quantitative real-time PCR. The expression levels of PI3Kα, p-ERK, p-Akt, Akt, p-mTOR, mTOR and HIF-1α were measured using Western blot. RESULTS 32 prototypes of SMYAD were identified from plasma and heart tissue of rat. Combining with ADMET prediction, 31 dominant constituents were focused. Based on HIF-1 pathway identified in preliminary result, 17 targets were focused, which were used to dock with 31 constituents. 27 constituents were therefore hit as the potential effective constituents of SMYAD in inhibiting myocardial hypertrophy. Bioactivity evaluation showed that NCA, CA, CCA, ICAC, AGDC, ICAA, SRD, and HPD significantly inhibited the increase of H9c2 cell surface area induced by ISO. Except for ICAA and AGDC, the remaining 6 effective constituents, showing a certain inhibitory effect on ISO-induced ANP mRNA overexpression at high and low concentrations, participated in compatibility based on the molar concentration ratio determined by HPLC. Effective combinatorial components composed of the 6 effective constituents (effective combinatorial components ABC) showed significant inhibitory effect on the increase of cell surface area, and the overexpression of ANP and β-MHC mRNA in H9c2 cells induced by ISO. Moreover, effective combinatorial components ABC significantly inhibited the protein overexpressions of p-Akt, p-mTOR and HIF-1α. Based on the results, we put forward the strategy of "Focusing constituents" and "Focusing targets" for the effective constituents research of TCM formula. CONCLUSION Effective combinatorial components ABC composed of NCA, CA, CCA, ICAC, SRD and HPD from SMYAD inhibited ISO-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and down-regulated expression of ANP and β-MHC mRNA through the inactivation of Akt/mTOR/HIF-1α pathway.

Comparison of outcomes between gap balancing and measured resection techniques for total knee arthroplasty: A prospective, randomized, controlled trial. ACTA ORTHOPAEDICA ET TRAUMATOLOGICA TURCICA 2021; 55:239-245. [PMID: 34100365 PMCID: PMC10566348 DOI: 10.5152/j.aott.2021.20160] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2020] [Revised: 11/10/2020] [Accepted: 02/19/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare the effect of Gap Balancing (GB) versus Measured Resection (MR) techniques on the early clinical and radiological results of Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS In this prospective study, 99 patients (99 knees) who underwent unilateral TKA between March 2018 and January 2019 were randomly allocated to one of two groups: The GP group, TKA with GB technique (19 male, 31 female; mean age = 55.9 ±16.5) and the MR group, TKA with MR technique (19 male, 30 female; mean age = 54.2 ± 18.7). Patients in both groups were comparable in terms of the demographic and clinical data. The angle of cutting block to PCA and Cutting Thickness of the Medial and Lateral Condyle (CTMC, CTLC) were intraoperatively measured. In radiographic analysis, Preoperative Mechanical Femorotibial Angle (Pre-mFTA), Postoperative Mechanical Femorotibial Angle (Post-mFTA), and joint line changes were examined. Femoral component Rotation Angle (FCRA) was also measured by computed tomography. In gait analysis, the spatiotemporal parameters (walking speed, step length, and single support time) and kinematics parameters (flexion angle, extension angle, and transversal rotation) were collected at 12 months postoperatively. Furthermore, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) were performed at 12 months after surgery. RESULTS CTMC and CTLC were both significantly higher in GB group than in the MR group (9.8±2.0 mm vs 8.5 ± 1.2 mm; 7.9 ± 1.8mm vs 6.8 ± 1.4mm; P = 0.001, P = 0.002, respectively). Angle of cutting block to PCA was statistically lower in GB group than in the MR group (1.7 ± 1.5° vs 3.1 ± 0.5 °; P < 0.001). FCRA is greater in the GB group compared to the MR group, but the difference did not reach statistical significance (1.2 ± 2.8 ° vs 0.7 ± 2.0 °; P > 0.05). Although post-mFTA significantly improved compared with pre-mFTA in both groups, no significant difference was observed in the changes of post-mFTA between the two groups (0.9 ± 1.7° vs 0.3 ± 1.8°, P > 0.05). No significant differences were determined between the two groups in spatiotemporal gait parameters including walking speed, step length, and single support time. The sagittal max knee flexion range was significantly larger in the GB group than in the MR group (49.27 ± 5.24 ° vs 45.99 ± 8.21 °, P < 0.05). The flexion range did not reach the level of the control group. There was no significant difference between the two groups in WOMAC at 12 months follow-up (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION Evidence from this study has revealed GB and MR techniques have both little effect on early clinical results of TKA. Nonetheless, GB technique can provide better knee flexion in the early postoperative gait status compared with MR technique. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level I, Therapeutic Study.

Abstract
Objectives: To explore the HIV prevalence and related factors among MSM aged 50 and above and provide evidence on the prevention and control of HIV/AIDS. Methods: Based on an MSM social application software Blued 7.1.6, we recruited participants through online convenience sampling to collect demographic variables, behavioral and self-reported HIV infection status, etc. Univariate χ2 test and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the related factors of self-reported HIV infection. Results: Self-reported HIV infection rate was 17.6%(126/714) among the participants. In multivariable analysis, participants who got divorced or widowed had a 2.07(95%CI: 1.34-3.21) times greater risk of self-reported HIV-positive than those who were married. Participants unaware of HIV-related knowledge showed a 1.92(95%CI:1.21-3.04) times greater risk of self-reported HIV-positive than those with better HIV-related knowledge. Participants who have ever been diagnosed with sexually transmitted disease (STD) showed a 3.17(95%CI:2.09-4.83) times greater risk of self-reported HIV-positive than those without STD infection history. Conclusion: Our findings indicated that the self-reported HIV infection rate was high among MSM aged 50 and above. Being divorced or widowed, being unaware of HIV-related knowledge and STD infection history was proved related with self-reported HIV infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bilateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) can be divided into one or two stages clinically. Compared with staged bilateral UKA, whether simultaneous bilateral UKA has better clinical efficacy remains to be verified. METHODS PubMed, EBSCO, and Web of Science were searched by us for meta-analysis. Studies were considered eligible for inclusion if they included simultaneous and staged UKA. We excluded studies unrelated to the research question, studies in non-selected languages, and studies where the full-text was not available. The data were extracted by two independent investigators, and disagreements were resolved through discussions with a third party. If important data or information about the content of the paper were not available, authors were contacted. Publication bias in studies has been assessed. Meta-analysis was done using Review Manager 5.3. RESULTS The systematic review and meta-analysis identified 3370 trials, of which 8 studies (963 patients) compared simultaneous with staged bilateral UKA. The meta-analysis showed that the clinical outcomes of simultaneous bilateral UKA goes down in operating time (weighted mean difference [WMD] = -19.34, 95% confidence interval [CI] -22.44 to -16.25, P < .00001), postoperative hemoglobin (Std. mean difference [SMD] = -0.46, 95% CI -0.71 to -0.20, P = .0004), length of stay (LOS) (WMD = -4.73, 95% CI -6.39 to -3.06, P < .00001), hospital cost (SMD = -5.42, 95% CI -6.54 to -4.30, P < .00001). There were no significant difference in blood transfusion, venous thrombosis, infection, cardiac complications, pulmonary complications, Oxford Knee Score (OKS) between simultaneous and staged bilateral UKA. CONCLUSION Simultaneous bilateral UKA can effectively reduce the operating time, LOS, and hospital cost without increasing postoperative complications compared to stage bilateral UKA.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging feature of clinically diagnosed myocarditis patients with negative endocardial biopsy (EMB) results, and to further demonstrate the diagnostic value of CMR in these patients. Methods: This was a retrospective case series study. Fourteen patients, who were clinically diagnosed as myocarditis according to 2013 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) clinical diagnostic criteria for myocarditis, but with negative EMB results, were enrolled. All patients underwent CMR examinations. The morphological, functional and histological changes of the heart were assessed based on black blood sequence, cine sequence, T2W-STIR sequence and contrast agent late gadolinium enhancement,(LGE). Results: There were 10 males and 4 females in this cohort, the age was (25.6±13.2) years. The interval between symptom onset and CMR was 21 (13, 60) days, and the interval between symptom onset and EMB was 19 (9, 40) days. There were 13 patients with abnormal CMR results including myocardial oedema, fibrosis, decreased ejection fraction, pericardial effusion or increased cardiac chamber dimension. Nine out of 14 patients had CMR morphological and/or functional abnormalities, including 1 case of left atrium enlargement, 1 case of left ventricle enlargement, 3 cases of right ventricle enlargement, 4 cases of increased left ventricular end diastolic volume index. Left ventricular ejection fraction was<50% in three cases, right ventricular ejection fraction was<40% in 5 cases, and pericardial effusion depth>3 mm was detected in 3 cases. Of the 14 patients, 11 had histological changes, of which 6 had T2 ratio≥2. Among the 10 patients (10/14) with positive LGE, the most common patterns were subepicardial LGE of the lateral wall and/or midwall LGE of the septum (n=9); 2 cases showed extensively subendocardial LGE of the left ventricular wall. No LGE involved in the right ventricular wall in the whole cohort. Conclusion: CMR plays a complementary role in the diagnosis of myocarditis in clinically diagnosed myocarditis patients with negative EMB findings.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathologic features, differential diagnosis, immunohistochemical profiles and molecular characteristics of primary extraskeletal osteosarcoma (ESOS). Methods: Ten cases of ESOS diagnosed and treated in Fujian Provincial Hospital, Fuzhou, China from January 2003 to January 2019 were collected and subjected to immunohistochemical staining and molecular analyses. The patients were followed up by telephone interview. Relative literature was also reviewed to assess the characteristics of this tumor. Results: The ten cases occurred in 3 women and 7 men, aged from 36 to 85 years (median, 60 years). The sizes of these tumors ranged from 5.5 to 17.5 cm (median, 11.0 cm). Histologically, at low magnification, the tumors were nodular, leafy and lobulated. They were composed of spindle cells, neoplastic osteoid cells, and cartilage tissues, with unequally-proportional mixture of these components. The three components intermingled with each other. Immunohistochemistry profiling showed that the tumor cells were positive for SATB2 (9/9), while α-SMA (4/10) and EMA (1/10) stains were focally positive. Ki-67 proliferation index was 10%‒50%. Desmin, CD68, S-100 protein, SOX10, HMB45, CD117, DOG1, CD34, CKpan, GATA3 and PAX8 stains were negative. MDM2/CDK4 gene amplification signals were not detected in the 6 cases (0/6), which were subjected to the FISH. The SSX18 break-apart signal and the C-KIT and PDGFR-α mutations were not detected (0/5 and 0/3, respectively). Conclusions: Primary ESOS is an extra-osseous osteogenic tumor. The diagnosis is mainly dependent on clinical, radiological and pathological characteristics. Immunohistochemistry and molecular profiling are helpful for making the correct diagnosis.

Abstract
Objective: To analysis the clinical characteristics of"recurrence"RNA positive patients with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and compared with those without"recurrence". Methods: 98 patients with COVID-19 in Wuhan Jinyintan Hospital and designated treatment hospitals in Quanzhou were included in this study from February 2020 to April 2020. There were 55 males and 43 females, aged from15 to 83 years, with a median age of 57.5 years, in which 20 cases were complicated with basic diseases. 15 of these patients had been diagnosed and hospitalized had been found as"recurrence"2019-nCoV RNA positive after discharge while the other 83 cases were all negative. The clinical classification of all patients was common type. Clinical data of the COVID-19 RNA"recurrence"patients were collected, and general situations, symptoms, laboratory examinations and CT images were also observed and analyzed. The patients were divided into 2019-nCoV"recurrent"group and 2019-nCoV"non-recurrent"group. There are 10 males and 5 females in 2019-nCoV"recurrent"group while 45 males and 38 females in"non-recurrent"group (χ²=0.800,P=0.371). The age of 2019-nCoV"recurrent"group (57±21) was higher than that of"non-recurrent"group(53±17). 8 of 15 the COVID-19"recurrent"group patients and 12 of 83"non-recurrent"patients have basic diseases. IgG and IgM of 2019-nCoV, IL-6, procalcitonin, ESR, CRP, BNP and other serum biochemical index levels were measured and compared between groups. Results: (1) The proportion of patients with common type of COVID-19 was 15.3% during 2-week medical observation after discharge. (2) All of the 2019-nCoV"recurrent"patients were hospitalized due to COVID-19 RNA positive, when they were quarantined after discharged from hospital. All the patients with mild symptoms which were clarified as common type, including 5 cases of fever, 6 cases of cough, 5 cases of expectoration, and 2 cases of slight shortness of breath. The time of symptoms appeared on (5.73±2.82) days after discharge. (3) The serum procalcitonin of all 2019-nCoV"recurrent"group patients were normal(all<0.05 ng/ml). The BNP of"recurrent"group (151±171) ng/L, was higher than that of"non-recurrent"group (63±78) ng/L (t = 3.207, P = 0.000). There was no significant difference in laboratory tests like leukocyte [(6.17±2.4) and (6.04±2.41)×109/L], lymphocyte[(1.59±0.52) and (1.32±0.64)×109/L], CRP [(12.54±28.20) and (21.74±25.63)mg/L], ESR [(31.07±28.72) and (34.10±22.16)mm/1 h], AST [(24.73±9.15) and (30.24±23.20)U/L], ALT [(22.60±12.82) and (36.47±34.12)U/L), LDH [(268±208) and (270±164)U/L], D-dimer [(0.60±0.50) and (0.84±0.98)μg/L], ferritin [(294±195) and (395±319)μg/L], IL-6 [(9.17±6.42) and (14.28±17.74)ng/L] and BUN (5.77±2.66) and (4.74±2.81)U/L] between"recurrent"and"non-recurrent"groups (all P>0.05). (4) In"recurrent"group, ground glass, exudative or solid lesions could be found in most of the chest CT performed on re-admission. Meanwhile, fibrosis lesion was relatively rare. (5) There were no secondary transmissions were found to be caused by the 2019-nCoV"recurrent"group patients. Conclusions: Most of the 2019-nCoV patients had underlying diseases and active lesions were still found in CT images, so the possibility of virus replication may still exist. All"recurrent"patients had mild illness which may suggest that they were in recovery stage, and no evidence of transmission is found.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze clinical features, prognosis and risk factors of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) associated pulmonary hypertension (PH). Methods: Clinical data of 338 infants with BPD were collected from the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in Shenzhen Maternity and Child Healthcare Hospital, Southern Medical University between January 2016 and December 2018. These infants were divided into PH group and non-PH group. The clinical features and prognosis were compared between these two groups by Chi-square test or nonparametric test. Risk factors for BPD-PH were analyzed with binary logistic regression model. Results: Among the 338 BPD infants, 314 had no PH (92.9%) and 24 had PH (7.1%), with an average gestational age of (27.1±1.8) weeks, and 206 were males and 132 females.PH infants had younger gestational age ((26.4±2.1) vs. (27.2±1.7) weeks, t=2.201, P=0.028) and lower birth weight ((798±255) vs. (1 003±240) g, t=4.030, P<0.01), compared to non-PH infants. Besides, duration of mechanical ventilation and non-invasive positive pressure ventilation were higher in PH group than that in non-PH group (14.3 (2.1, 43.7) vs. 0.5 (0, 4.7) d, Z=-4.553, P<0.01; 30.0 (22.5, 64.2) vs. 15.0 (7.0, 26.0) d, Z=-4.838, P<0.01). The proportions of maternal hypertension, small for gestational age (SGA), late onset sepsis, ventilator associated pneumonia, hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) requiring ligation, severe BPD and severe extrauterine growth retardation (EUGR) were higher in PH group than those in non-PH group ((20.8% (5/24) vs. 6.4% (20/314), 33.3% (8/24) vs. 7.6% (24/314), 54.2% (13/24) vs. 7.3% (23/314), 25.0% (6/24) vs. 6.1% (19/314), 75.0% (18/24) vs. 39.2% (123/314), 45.8% (11/24) vs. 1.9% (6/314), 66.7% (16/24) vs. 7.3% (23/314), 75.0% (18/24) vs. 45.5% (143/314), all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that maternal hypertension (OR=12.950, 95%CI: 1.740-96.385), severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (OR=10.160, 95%CI: 2.725-37.884), SGA (OR=4.992, 95%CI: 1.432-16.920), PDA requiring ligation (OR=19.802, 95%CI: 3.297-118.921), severe EUGR (OR=20.316, 95%CI: 2.221-185.853) were independent risk factors of BPD associated PH. In the 24 infants with PH, all 7 mild PH infants and 8 moderate PH infants survived, while 4 out of 9 severe PH infants died. Among the survivors, the longest duration of oxygen therapy was up to the corrected gestational age of 1 year and 2 months. Conclusions: PH is a severe complication of BPD, and associated with higher mortality and poor prognosis. Echocardiography screening and regular post-discharge follow up are recommended for BPD infants with risk factors of PH.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics, immunophenotype, molecular genetic characteristics and prognosis of the metaplastic thymoma (MT). Methods: The clinicopathological and follow-up data of five MT cases were collected at Fujian Provincial Hospital from 2008 to 2019. Immunohistochemical staining and MAML2 gene detection were performed, and the relevant literature was reviewed. Results: There were 2 males and 3 females, aged 36-64 years (mean age 52 years). The tumors ranged 3.2-7.3 cm in the greatest diameter (average 5.1 cm).Microscopically, the tumor showed a biphasic pattern with epithelial cells merging gradually with the spindle cell component. The two areas transited to each other or had obvious boundary. Both components showed mild atypia. No mitosis was observed in either area, and a small number of lymphocytes were observed in the stroma. Immunohistochemical staining showed that epithelioid cells were positive for CKpan, p63 and E-cadherin. Spindle cells were positive for vimentin and EMA, while the Ki-67 index was less than 5%, and lymphocytes were negative for TdT. MAML2 gene apart signal was detected in two of the cases (2/4) that were tested by FISH. Conclusions: MT is a low-grade malignant epithelioid thymic tumor. Its diagnosis and differential diagnosis are dependent on the morphological characteristics, immunohistochemical staining and MAML2 gene detection. The primary treatment option is surgical resection, with an overall good prognosis.

Abstract
Objective: To observe the changes of peri-implant tissue around the individualized abutment that was grinded from zirconia provisional crown in one year. Methods: In this research, a prosthodontic-driven virtual implant planning and immediate provisionalization were conducted in computer assisted design software. And computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) techniques were used to fabricate the zirconia provisional crown and surgical guide template before surgery. The implant was accurately placed with the surgical guide, and the zirconia provisional crown was immediately delivered after surgery. Three months later, the implant osseointegration was completed, and zirconia provisional crown was prepared intraorally to generate customized zirconia abutment for final prosthesis. The study included 30 patients with single anterior tooth loss, including 18 males and 12 females, aged from 26 to 50 years old, and the mean age was (36.2±6.1) years old. The patients were from the Center of Oral Implantology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University Medical College from January 2017 to February 2018. After cementation of the final prosthesis, the cases were followed up at 6 and 12 months time intervals. Implant survival rate, probing depth, bleeding on probing, marginal bone level loss and papilla index score (PIS) were recorded in every appointment. Results: The survival rate of 30 implants was 100%, and the probing depths were less than 5 mm. The bone resorption at 6 and 12 months follow-up after the final delivery was 0 (0, 0) mm and 0 (-0.2, 0) mm, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The PIS was 3.0 (2.0, 4.0), 3.0 (2.8, 4.0) and 3.0 (3.0, 4.0) on the final delivery, 6 and 12 months after final delivery, respectively. Conclusions: Marginal bone level and bone loss were stable with this new implant clinical protocol at the one-year follow-up.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the accuracy of diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI-MRI) combined with high resolution temporal bone CT (HRCT) in the location diagnosis of middle ear cholesteatoma and its value in the postoperative follow-up. Methods: 134 patients with inital cholesteatoma and 22 patients with suspected recurrent cholesteatoma were selected for HRCT, conventional MRI and DWI examination. Based on the intraoperative and pathological diagnosis, DWI and HRCT images were combined to evaluate the consistency between the lesion location and invasion area of the initial cholesteatoma and intraoperative lesions. The results of HRCT and DWI in the diagnosis of recurrent middle ear cholesteatoma were statistically analyzed to evaluate their diagnostic efficacy. Results: The accuracy rate of DWI combined with HRCT was 90.3%.The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of HRCT and DWI in the diagnosis of recurrent middle ear cholesteatoma were 27.8%, 75.0%, 83.3%, 18.8% and 100%, 75.0%, 94.7% and 100%, respectively, and the Kappa values consistent with the pathological results were 0.024 and 0.843, respectively. Chi-square test confirmed that there were differences in the diagnosis between groups (P<0.001). Conclusions: Combined with the high sensitivity of DWI and the high resolution of HRCT, the accuracy of preoperative positioning of the newly diagnosed cholesteatoma can be improved and surgery strategy can be guided. DWI is also of high diagnostic value for recurrent cholesteatoma in the middle ear.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the preparation and preliminary research on the characteristics of modified nano-bioglass hydrogel. Methods: (1) The nano-bioglass suspension was prepared by adding 67 mL nano-silica suspension into 400 mL saturated calcium hydroxide solution, and its suspension stability was observed. (2) The hydrogel with final mass fraction of 10% gelatin and 1% sodium alginate was prepared and set as control group. On the basis of the hydrogel in control group, the nano-bioglass suspension prepared in experiment (1) was added to prepare the hydrogel with the final mass fraction of 0.5% bioglass, 10% gelatin, and 1% sodium alginate, and the hydrogel was set as the experimental group. The gelling time at 4 and 25 ℃and the dissolution time at 37 ℃ of hydrogel in 2 groups were recorded, and the gelation at 4 and 25 ℃and dissolution condition at 37 ℃of the hydrogel in 2 groups were observed. The hydrogel in 2 groups were collected and cross-linked with 25 g/L calcium chloride solution after cold bath at 4 ℃, and the compression modulus was measured by Young's modulus tester. In addition, the hydrogel in 2 groups were collected and cross-linked as before, and freeze-drying hydrogel was made at -20 ℃. The relative volumes were measured and the porosity of hydrogel in 2 groups was calculated. The number of sample in the experiment was 3. (3) Fibroblasts (Fbs) were isolated and cultured from 12 C57BL/6J mice of 24 hours old and the morphology was observed by inverted microscope, and the third passage of Fbs were cultured for the following experiment. Fbs were collected to make single cell suspension with the cell concentration of 1×10(5)/mL. The single cell suspension was divided into experimental group and control group according the random number table (the same grouping method below), which were added with hydrogel in experimental group and control group prepared in experiment (2), respectively. At culture hour 12, 24, and 48, cells of 3 wells in each group were collected to detect the survival rate by cell counting kit 8 method. (4) The third passage Fbs were collected to prepare the single cell suspension with the cell concentration of (3.0~4.5)×10(7)/mL, which was divided into experimental group and control group, with 1 tube in each group. The single cell suspension in 2 groups were added with green fluorescent probe DIO for staining and then added with 9 mL hydrogel in experimental group and control group prepared in experiment (2), respectively. The mixed solution of Fbs and hydrogel in 2 groups was cross-linked as before to make cell-loaded hydrogel. On culture day 3, the survival of cells in the hydrogel was observed by laser confocal microscope. The cell-loaded hydrogel was prepared as before and without added with green fluorescent probe DIO. On culture day 7, the adhesion and extension of cells in the hydrogel were observed by scanning electron microscope. (5) Twelve 6-week-old female BALB/c-nu nude mice were collected and divided into experimental group and control group, with 6 mice in each group. A round full-thickness skin defect wound with diameter of 1 cm was made on the back of each mouse. Immediately after injury, one cell-loaded hydrogel block in the experimental group and the control group prepared in experiment (4) was placed in the wound of each mouse in the experimental group and the control group, respectively. On post injury day (PID) 7 and 14, 3 nude mice in each group were sacrificed to collect the wound and wound margin tissue, which was stained with hematoxylin-eosin to observe the wound healing. Data were statistically analyzed with independent sample t test. Results: (1) The nano-bioglass particles could be uniformly dispersed in water and had good suspension stability. (2) The hydrogels of the 2 groups were molten at 37 ℃, and no precipitation of particle was observed. The dissolving time of the hydrogel in the experimental group and the control group at 37 ℃ was 5 and 10 min, respectively. The gelation time of the hydrogel in the experimental group and the control group at 25 ℃ was 30 and 180 min, respectively, and the gelation time of the 2 groups at 4 ℃ was 5 and 10 min, respectively. The compression modulus of hydrogel in the experimental group was (53±6) kPa, which was significantly higher than (23±6) kPa in the control group (t=6.364, P<0.01). The porosity of the hydrogel in the experimental group was (86.1±2.1)%, which was similar to (88.2±4.4)% in the control group (t=1.210, P>0.05). (3) The cells were in long fusiform, and the proportion of nuclei was high, which was accorded with the morphological characteristics of Fbs. At culture hour 12, 24, and 48, the survival rate of cells in the experimental group was (84±4)%, (89±4)%, and (130±10)%, which was similar to (89±5)%, (90±4)%, and (130±11)% in the control group, respectively (t=1. 534, 0.611, 0.148, P>0.05). (4) On culture day 3, the cells in the two groups had complete morphology in the hydrogel, no nuclear lysis or disappearance were observed, the cytoplasm remained intact, and the fluorescence intensity of the cells in the experimental group was significantly stronger than that in the control group. On culture day 7, the cells in the experimental group and the control group adhered and stretched in the hydrogel, and the number of cells in the experimental group adhered to the hydrogel was significantly more than that in the control group. On PID 7, the wound area of the nude mice in the control group and the experimental group were reduced, the reduction area of mice in the experimental group was more obvious, and a large amount of inflammatory cells were seen in and around the wound in the 2 groups. On PID 14, the wound area of the nude mice in the control group was larger than that of the experimental group, and the number of inflammatory cells in and around the wound was significantly more than that in the experimental group. Conclusions: Nano-bioglass hydrogel possesses good physical, chemical, and biological properties, cell loading potential, and the ability to promote wound healing, which means it has a good potential in clinical application.

Abstract
Background The incidence of fractures around the femoral prosthesis among patients undergoing hip arthroplasty is increasing and has become the third leading cause of hip revision. While numerous methods for the surgical treatment of periprosthetic femoral fractures (PFFs) have been proposed, only few reports have examined the long-term efficacy of surgical treatment. This study aims to examine the mid-and long-term efficacy of surgical treatment among patients with Vancouver B2 and B3 PFFs. Methods This retrospective study evaluated the surgical outcomes of patients with Vancouver B2 and B3 PFFs between 2007 and 2011. The minimum follow-up time was eight years. Fracture healing, prosthesis stability, complications, patient quality of life SF-36 score, and survival rate were evaluated during the follow-up assessments. Results A total of 83 patients were included and had an average follow-up period of 120.3 months. Among these patients, 69 were classified as Vancouver B2 and were treated with a distal fixation stem, whereas 14 cases were classified as Vancouver B3 and were treated with modular femoral prosthesis by using a proximal femoral allograft technique. A total of 15 patients underwent secondary revision surgery, and prosthesis dislocation was identified as the main cause of secondary revision. 80 (96.4%) cases of fractures were clinically healed. The mortality rate in the first year after surgery was 8.4% (7/83). The overall 5-year Kaplan–Meier survival rate for these patients was 75.9%. Meanwhile, the 5-year Kaplan–Meier survival rate for the implants was 86.9%. The final follow-up SF-36 score of the patients was 48.3 ± 9.8. Conclusions Patients with Vancouver B2 and B3 PFFs show high mortality in the first year after their surgery, and the Kaplan–Meier analysis results showed that such mortality tends to plateau after 5 years. Prosthesis dislocation was identified as the primary cause of secondary revision.
