Methods 127 cases were reviewed from gender, age, manner of injury, survival time and the direct causes of death from January 1998 to December 2008. Results Of the 127 cases, the key direct cause of death was secondary brainstem damage, followed by severe primarily brain injury and complications. For those who died within 12 hours after injury, the direct cause was severe primarily brain injury; for those who survived between 12 hours to one week, secondary brainstem damage was in the majority of the causes and for those who survive more than one week time, complication was an important cause. Conclusion In the cases of traumatic brain injury, we should take comprehensive and systematic examination of forensic pathology, and refer to clinical data at the same time to determine the direct cause of death.

ObjectiveBy comparing the epidemiological characteristics of the incidence and death of female breast cancer in China and the United States, the differences in prevention and screening strategies between China and the United States were analyzed to explore the prevention and control measures of female breast cancer in China. MethodsBased on the relevant data released by the Global Burden of Disease in 2020, the National Cancer Center of China, and the China Health Statistical Yearbook, the new cases and deaths of breast cancer in Chinese and American women in 2023 were estimated respectively, and the incidence, mortality and time trend of breast cancer in Chinese and American women were analyzed. ResultsIn China, 376 789 new cases of female breast cancer and 116 791 deaths were expected in 2023. In the United States, approximately 297 790 women were expected to be newly diagnosed with breast cancer in 2023, representing approximately 15.2% of new cancer cases. About 43 170 women died from breast cancer, accounting for about 7.1% of all cancer deaths. The incidence of breast cancer in women in the United States during the period 1975–2020 gradually increased and then stabilized; In contrast, the incidence of breast cancer among Chinese women increased year by year during the period 1990–2020. In recent years, the incidence and mortality rates of breast cancer in Chinese women had increased more than those in the United States, and there was a large difference between urban and rural areas in China. ConclusionsBoth China and the United States face a large burden of female breast cancer, and the characteristics of female breast cancer in China are similar to those in the United States. To reduce the burden of breast cancer in Chinese women, further efforts should be made in various aspects, such as strengthening breast cancer education, raising public health awareness, improving diet structure, cultivating healthy lifestyle, increasing screening efforts, and improving medical level.
Purpose To study the proteins expression of genes related to apoptosis of retinal cells in development of human fetus. Methods Fifty cases of retinas of human fetus aged from 12 to 38 we eks were collected and paraffin embedded sections were made. Immunohistochemical method was used. Results Fas protein was expressed by cells of ganglion cell layer, inner and outer nuclear later, which were just formed on 16th week. It was not expressed until 38th week, Fas(+) staining appeared in layers of retina. Fas-L(+) staining was detected in cells of layers of retina on 26th week and the positive staining located in ganglion cell layer on 32th week. Neuronal fiber layer was Fas-L positive. Bax positive staini ng was detected on 8th week. Bax positive nucleus were observed mainly in GCL and ONL on 16th week. It was in INL on 24th week and in Muuml;ller cells inner terminates on 26th week. After this time, all cells of retina were bax immune ne gative staining. Bcl-2(+) staining appeared in differentiating neuroblastic layer on 16th week. Beginning on 24th week, bcl-2 (+) staining was observed in glial cells of GCL and inner terminates of Muuml;ller cell. Conclusion Apoptosis of developing retinal cell may be Fas/Fas-L independent and bax may be involved in apoptosis of the cells. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2001,17:55-57)
Objective To analyze the incidence and mortality of asthma in China from 1990 to 2019, and to explore the influence of age, period and cohort on the incidence and mortality of asthma. Methods Using the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019 database, the incidence and mortality of asthma in China from 1990 to 2019 were analyzed, and the time variation trend of age-standardized incidence and mortality was analyzed by using Joinpoint software, and the average annual variation percentage was calculated. The age-period-cohort model was constructed to analyze the influence of age, period and birth cohort on the incidence and mortality trend of asthma. Results In 2019, the incidence of asthma in China was 264.44/100 000, and the mortality rate was 1.74/100 000. The incidence rate of asthma in males (300.94/100 000) and mortality rate (1.99/100 000) were higher than those in females (226.51/100 000 and 1.49/100 000). From 1990 to 2019, the age-standardized incidence of asthma in China showed a downward trend, but the trend was not statistically significant (P>0. 05), and the age-standardized mortality showed a downward trend, with an average annual decrease of 4.90%, with a statistically significant trend (P<0.05). The results of age effect showed that the incidence of asthma in China showed a downward trend, and the death first showed a downward trend, and then increased in the age group of 55-59. The results of period effect show that the risk of asthma is decreasing, and then it is increasing from 2015 to 2019, and the risk of asthma mortality is decreasing. The results of cohort effect show that the later people are born, the lower the risk of asthma onset and death. The death of asthma is attributed to behavioral risk, high body mass index and tobacco, and the occupational risk tends to decrease. ConclusionsFrom 1990 to 2019, the incidence and mortality of asthma in China showed a decreasing trend, and the incidence and mortality of men were higher than that of women. The risk factors of behavioral risk, high body mass index and tobacco were still on the rise, so corresponding measures should be taken to carry out early screening, early detection, and early treatment for key populations.
Ferroptosis is a unique way of cell death discovered in recent years, which involves the lethal process of iron ion accumulation and lipid peroxidation, which is obviously different from the traditional cell death pathway such as apoptosis and necrosis. For a long time, tuberculosis has been a major infectious disease in the field of global public health, which brings a serious burden to the society because of its high morbidity and mortality. The emergence of drug resistance aggravates the difficulty of treating tuberculosis, and new treatment strategies and drug targets are urgently needed. Combined with the latest research progress at home and abroad, This article will discuss the molecular mechanism of ferroptosis and pulmonary tuberculosis and the relationship between signal pathways, biomarkers and related genes, in order to provide a new perspective for the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis.
Risk stratifications are valuable aids for stratifying patients by disease severity, driving informed clinical decisions, because they allow the selection of the most appropriate strategy of treatment based on the patient's individual characteristics. The clinical algorithms help patients and their families to get a better understanding of issues relevant to treatment strategies and subsequent risks as part of the process to obtain informed consent. The current risk stratifications of coronary artery bypass grafting included the Society of Thoracic Surgeons Score, the European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation, SinoSystem for Coronary Operative Risk Evaluation. This review focuses on the progress of risk stratifications of coronary artery bypass grafting for patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
Objective To analyze death causes and relevant factors in victims of Wenchuan earthquake.Methods Medical records of 27 dead patients admitted to W est China Hospital during the first 30 days after Wenchuan earthquake were analyzed retrospectively.Patient census data,diagnoses,dispositions,and prognoses were collected. Results A total of 2702 patients with earthquake related injuries were admitted to West China Hospital.The overall mortality rate was 1%(27/2702 patients).The death were associated with age≥70.severe cerebral injuries and severe underlying illness.Mortality rate was highest in aged patients with comorbidities.Conclusions Insufficient pre-hospital treatment and inappropriate transfer procedure may contribute to the early death.Complicated with comorbidities is the leading cause of late death.Earlier involvement of intensivist in medical intervention in such a disaster is demanded.
