Objective:To analyze the clinical effect and influencing factors of closed reduction and percutaneous cannulated screw fixation in the treatment of femoral neck fracture in the adolescents, and to provide evidence for surgical treatment of femoral neck fracture in the adolescents. Methods:The clinical effect and influencing factors of 36 cases of femoral neck fracture treated by closed reduction and percutaneous cannulated screw fixation were analyzed. The time of operation, the time of fracture healing evaluated with X-ray image, the evaluation on the function after operation by Harris score of hip joint,and the occurrence of complications of the patients were observed.Results:All the cases were followed up for 6-24 months, average 16 months. One case of all patients had avascular necrosis of the femoral head, and accounted for 2.78% of all the patients;2 cases of all fractures were nonunion, and 5.56%.The remaining 33 cases were completely healed.The HHS-harris hip score results showed that 26 were excellent, 6 cases were good, and 2 cases were poor;the excellent and good rate was 88.89%.Conclusion:Closed reduction and percutaneous cannulated screw fixation in the treatment of adolescent femoral neck fracture is an effective program of operation;timing of operation, good reduction, and rigid internal fixation can decrease the femoral head necrosis and the incidence of complications.

Objective:To discuss their effects of PLA(polylactic acid)/PTMC(polytrimethylene carbonate)and PLA/PTMC-calcium phosphate[Ca3(PO4)2]composite porous scaffolds prepared by 3D printing technology on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)of the rabbits,and to clarify their application values in bone defect repairment.Methods:After mixing the materials,PLA/PTMC and PLA/PTMC-Ca3(PO4)2 filaments were prepared by desktop filament extruder.The scaffolds were designed by CATIA V5-6R2019 modeling software and fabricated using CreatBot F430 3D printer.The chemical structure of the PLA/PTMC-Ca3(PO4)2 scaffold was detected by infrared spectroscopy.In vitro degradation experiments were used to detect the degradation weight loss rates and pH values of the two scaffolds.A contact angle measuring instrument was used to detect the hydrophilicities of the two scaffolds.The BMSCs were extracted from three newborn New Zealand white rabbits(2-5-day-old);CCK-8 method was used to detect the proliferation activities of the cells co-cultured with two scaffolds,and Alizarin red staining was used to observe the osteogenic differentiation of the cells co-cultured with two scaffolds.Results:Infrared spectroscopy confirmed the successful preparation of composite scaffolds containing PLA,PTMC,and β-Ca3(PO4)2.During degradation for 6-14 weeks,compared with PLA/PTMC scaffold,the degradation rates of the PLA/PTMC-Ca3(PO4)2 scaffold in lipase solution and phosphate-buffered saline(PBS)were significantly increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01).During degradation for 8-14 weeks,compared with PLA/PTMC scaffold,the pH value of the PLA/PTMC-Ca3(PO4)2scaffold in lipase solution was significantly increased(P<0.01).Compared with PLA/PTMC scaffold,the contact angle of the PLA/PTMC-Ca3(PO4)2 scaffold was significantly decreased(P<0.01).On days 5 and 7 of cell co-culture,compared with PLA/PTMC scaffold,the proliferation activity of the cells co-cultured with PLA/PTMC-Ca3(PO4)2 scaffold was significantly increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01).After 21 d of co-culture,both scaffolds overlapped with BMSCs and locally formed calcified nodules,which were stained orange by Alizarin red.Compared with PLA/PTMC scaffold,the number of mineralized calcium nodules in the cells co-cultured with PLA/PTMC-Ca3(PO4)2 scaffold was increased,with greater density and deeper color.Conclusion:The PLA/PTMC-Ca3(PO4)2 composite porous scaffolds containing PLA,PTMC,and β-Ca3(PO4)2 are successfully prepared by 3D printing technology.These scaffolds exhibit good degradation properties and show advantages in biocompatibility,hydrophilicity,and osteogenic induction;they are excellent materials for the bone defect repairment.

Objective:Employing the cascade care model, this qualitative study explores determinants influencing the cascading care stages of hypertension and diabetes by interviewing various stakeholders.Methods:In July 2023, purposive sampling was employed to recruit participants from Gongyi and Wugang cities in Henan Province, and Linqu County in Weifang City, Shandong Province. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with representatives of policymakers, healthcare institution managers, providers, and patients with hypertension and diabetes.And thematic analysis was performed using both inductive and deductive approaches.Results:A total of 82 individuals were interviewed, with an age range of (53.8±12.0) years, among which 48 (58.5%) were male; including 5 policymakers, 10 institutional managers, 20 healthcare providers, and 47 patients with hypertension and diabetes. The study identified both barriers and facilitating factors at the patient, healthcare provider, and system levels across various stages: awareness, screening, diagnosis, treatment, long-term management, and control of hypertension and diabetes.Conclusion:By delineating and analyzing the barriers and facilitators at each stage of hypertension and diabetes care, this study lays the groundwork for the development of effective, feasible, and sustainable implementation pathways, with significant implications for the enhanced management of hypertension and diabetes in China.
