Objective To investigate the effects of surgical operations on different femoral condylar fractures. Methods A retrospective study was carried out on surgical operations of 84 patients with different femoral condylar fractures. The healing of fracture, functional recovery of knee joint and complications were analyzed. Results All the fractures healed in 6 to 12 months. According to Karlstrom's knee function score system, 48 knees were rated as excellent, 20 good, 13 fair, and 3 poor. The total good and excellent rate was 80.9%. Conclusions Anatomical reduction, secure fixation, timely treatment of complicated damage, and early rehabilitation exercise are important in treatment of femoral condylar fracture. The sustain blade plate is recommendable, because its design suits the anatomical structure of femoral condylar, and it not only provides convenient and stable fixation but also allows early postoperative functional training.

Objective To test intraoperative radiotherapy with mobile photon beam using the INTRABEAM system ( Germany) , and to analyze the dosimetric characteristics of low?energy photon beam using X?ray source and spherical applicators and explore its potential limitations in clinical application. Methods A special water phantom, a parallel?plate ionization chamber, and an electrometer were used to measure the depth dose rates and isotropy of dose distribution in x/y plane of X?ray source and different spherical applicators in the INTRABEAM system. Those data were then compared with the system data. Results For the X?ray source, the deviation of observed depth dose rate and isotropy in the x/y plane from the system data were-2.16%± 1. 36% and-1.9%~ 2. 1%, respectively. For applicators with different diameters, the deviation of observed depth dose rate, transfer coefficient, and isotropy in x/y plane from the system data were-10.0%~2. 3%,-8.9%~4. 2%, and-1.6%~2. 6%, respectively. Surface dose rate and dose gradient became larger with the decrease in the diameter of the spherical applicator. The measurement of depth dose rate and isotropy of X?ray source and spherical applicators showed good repeatability. The influencing factors for measurement accuracy included the positioning error of ionization chamber, energy response, noise current, and correction factor f ’ ( R ) . Conclusions This study reveals the dosimetric characteristics of the INTRABEAM system, verifies the accuracy of the system data, and obtains the data for clinical application and routine quality assurance. However, large dose gradient and small therapeutic range may limit its wide clinical application.

Objective To systematically review the existing evidence about the effect of medial and lateral (crossed) entry pins versus only lateral entry pin fixation on the supracondylar fractures of the humerus in children.Methods Eligible studies were identified in Cochrane library,the Cochrane Bone,Joint and Muscle Trauma Group (till March 2011 ),Medline (from 1966 to March 2011 ),EMbase (from 1966 to 2011 ),CBM (from January 1979 to March 2011 ),PubMed,Wanfang Data (from 2000 to March 2011 ) and CNKI and the references of the included studies and several Chinese orthopedic journals were manually searched.Then,the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-randomized controlled trials (CCTs) about two entries (crossed and only lateral pinning) for supracondylar fractures of humerus in children were collected.After evaluation of methodology with the enrolled studies,available data was extracted and systematic review was conducted via the method recommended by the Cochrane Collaboration.Results In total,five RCTs involving 311 patients were involved.Compared with the preoperative data,the meta-analysis results showed no significant difference in reduction stability in terms of change in Baumann angle and Carrying angle between the two groups.For the postoperative function outcome including complete reduction,Flynn grade and full return to function,no significant difference was found between the two groups.For the postoperative complications,there was no difference in the infection of pin tract,though lateral entry resulted in a significant lower incidence of the iatrogenic nerve injury compared with the medial and lateral entry.Conclusions With the Kirschner wire fixation for supracondylar fractures of humerus in children,current existing evidences indicate that the lateral entry of pinning has similar results in reduction stability,function outcome and incidence of pin tract infection compared with medial and lateral entry.Nevertheless,lateral entry,as a safe pinning technique,may effectively decrease the risk of iatrogenic nerve injury

[Objective] To investigate the incidence and risk factors for posttransplantation anemia (PTA) following kidney transplantation. [Methods] A retrospective cohort study reviewing the medical records of the patients who received a renal transplant at our center from January 2004 to June 2008 was performed. All possible risk factors for PTA were recorded. Outcomes among the patients with PTA were compared with those without PTA using t-test and chi-square analysis methods. Logistic regression analysis was done to rank the relative risk of potential variables and calculate the 95% CI. [Results] Prevalence of PTA in our center was 31.0% (hemoglobin <120 g/L or Hct< 0.38 for males, < 110 g/L or Hct < 0.35 for males). Univariate and Logistic regression analysis revealed that the risk factors for PTA after kidney transplantation were female (RR=8.738; 95%CI 2.558~29.853; P= 0.001), creatinine level (RR=1.035; 95%CI 1.018~1.052; P<0.001) and acute rejection (RR=19.827; 95%CI 2.056~191.19; P=0.01); [Conclusions] PTA is a frequent complication after kidney transplantation. Great attention should be paid to this complication considering its negative effect on graft function. Female, impaired renal function and acute rejection are risk factors of anemia in kidney transplantation recipients.

Objective To analyze clinical effectiveness of tigecycline for complicated intra abdominal infections (cIAIs) in surgical intensive care units.Methods The clinical data of patients diagnosed as cIAIs from Nov 2011 to Aug 2014 were retrospectively collected.Data of sex, age, severity of disease, bacterial strains and drug resistance, prior antibiotics, dosage of tigecycline were included.Results 1 862 patients were admitted into surgical intensive care unit from Nov 2011 to Aug 2014.54 patients were finally treated by tigecycline among 304 patients diagnosed as cIAIs.Acinetobacter baumannii (23.1%), Klebiella pneumonia (18.5%), Escherichia coli (16.9%) were the top three pathogenic bacteria.41/50 were of multiple bacterial infection.Previously adopted antibiotics were miscellaneous, the number of used antibiotics was up to 13 for one patient.Coverage of tigecycline averaged at 8.9 days.Tigecycline effective rate was 62%, 38% (19/50) cIAIs were completely controlled and cured,24% (12/50) patients showed effectiveness of tigercycline that procalcitonin decreased 50% within 72 h.Logistic regression analysis showed that severity of disease and tigecycline dose contribute to the effectiveness within 72 h.Conclusions Tigecycline is effective alterative for patients diagnosed as complicated intra abdominal infections in surgical intensive care units.
