Objective To observe the clinical effect of repair of anchors with wire combined with open reduction and internal fixation in the treatment of ankle fractures complicated with triangle ligament injury.Methods Seventy patients with ankle fractures complicated with triangle ligament injury in our hospital were selected as the research subjects.They were divided into study group and control group according to the random digital table method,35 cases in each group.The control group was treated with open reduction and internal fixation,while the study group was treated with repair of anchors with wire based on the control group.The clinical treatment effect,scores of VAS at different moments and complications were observed and compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate in the study group was 91.42%,which was higher than 74.29% in the control group(x2=3.846,P<0.05).The scores of VAS in the control group at 1,3,6 and 12 months after operation were (7.21±1.04)points,(6.85±0.72) points,(3.32±0.31) points,(2.01±0.12) points,respectively,which of the study group were (6.34±1.23) points,(5.42±0.84) points,(3.28±0.24) points,(1.87±0.42) points,which of the study group at 1 and 3 months after operation were lower than those of the control group(t=3.195,7.647,all P<0.05),while the differences in the scores of VAS at 6 and 12 months after operation between the two groups were not statistically significant(P>0.05).The incidence rate of complications in the study group was 8.57%,which was lower than 14.29% in the control group(x2=1.146,P>0.05).Conclusion The repair of anchors with wire combined with open reduction and internal fixation in the treatment of ankle fractures complicated with triangle ligament injury can effectively improve the clinical treatment effect.

Objective To compare the therapeutic effect of anatomic plate (AP)and locking compression plate(LCP) in treatment of fermoral intertrochanteric fracture in elderly patients. Methods Nineteen and three patients with fermoral intertrochanteric fracture were treated with anatomic plate (AP) and locking compression plate (LCP). The therapeutic effects were compared in the study. Results All operations were done successfully. Of all cases,72 patients were followed up for 5-24 months. Excellence rate: AP was 66. 7% and LCP was 88. 2%.Conclusions AP had significantly low excellence rate with more complications when compared with LCP. LCP could be the first choice in treatment of fermoral intertrochanteric fractures with high excellence rates and few complications.

Objective To evaluate the anatomic morphology of submandibular fossa. Methods Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to analyze the anatomic morphology of submandibular fossa. Implants of various dimensions were virtually placed into the mandibular 1st and 2nd molar region. Spatial relationships among submandibular fossa , mandibular canal and implant were analyzed. Results The depth of the submandibular fossa was (1.0 ± 0.61)mm in the 1st molar region and (1.5 ± 0.61)mm in the 2nd molar region. There were no significant statistical difference in genders, sides, and tooth loss. The length of the implants was (19.7 ± 3.75)mm (d = 4 mm) and (18.6 ± 3.73)mm (d = 5 mm) in the 1st molar region and (16.2 ± 3.46) mm (d = 4 mm) and (15.2 ± 3.09)mm (d = 5 mm) in the 2nd molar region in patiens with teeth and lingual perforation; the length of the implants was (17.1 ± 3.77)mm (d = 4 mm) and (15.6 ± 3.85)mm (d = 5 mm), and (14.2 ± 4.05)mm (d = 4 mm) and (13.2 ± 4.27)mm (d = 5 mm) in patients with tooth loss, respectively. Conclusions Determination of spatial relationships among submandibular fossa , mandibular canal and implants by using CBCT has important significance in guiding dental implant surgery.

BACKGROUND:Three-dimensional finite element simulation has been widely used in biomechanics. However, there is little research in knee joint replacement. The study of femoral prosthesis is less.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the optimal positioning parameters of knee replacement and femoral prosthesis implantation, and to verify the efficacy of Gemini-PS knee prosthesis in total knee arthroplasty.
METHODS: (1) Knee finite element model in total knee replacement was constructed. Orthogonal experiment was performed in femoral osteotomy positioning parameters. The shift amount A, external rotation degree B, and valgus degree C of femoral prosthesis were selected as the relevant factors for orthogonal experiment. Three values were taken for each parameter to establish orthogonal tables. Nine experimental combined knee replacement finite element models were created and analyzed with finite element. Analysis of variance and range analysis were used by optimization. (2) Totally 42 patients (47 knees) with knee osteoarthritis received total knee arthroplasty with Gemini-PS knee joint prosthesis. Knee joint function was evaluated after replacement with Hospital for Special Surgery knee score and American Knee Society knee score. Knee pain was assessed with Visual Analogue Scale score.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Minimal polyethylene substrate surface compressive stress peak was translation 0 mm, external rotation of 3°, valgus 6°; the peak stress was 15.9 MPa. Among the influential factors, the effects of internal and external translation were larger than that of external rotation angle, and greater than that of valgus angle. The optimal positioning parameter combination was pan 0 mm, external rotation 3°, valgus 6° by range analysis and variance analysis. Orthogonal experiment was valid by simulation. (2) 42 patients were folowed up for 12-36 months. One patient affected subcutaneous fat liquefaction of the lower segment of the incision. Hospital for Special Surgery knee score and American Knee Society knee score were significantly higher after implantation (P < 0.05). Visual Analogue Scale score was significantly lower after replacement (P < 0.05). X-ray films showed that osteolysis, dislocation or loosening was not found. The recovery of knee joint was good after operation. (3) These findings

Objective To analyze the characteristics of left ventricular systolic function in Kawasaki disease (KD) patients with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) resistant during acute phase by two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (2D STI).Methods IVIG resistant patients (n=40) as well as age and gender matched IVIG responder patients (n=40) were selected from KD patients in acute phase.Patients in IVIG resistant group were further divided into coronary artery dilation (CAD) subgroup and no coronary artery dilation (NCAD) subgroup.Then conventional echocardiography,2D STI and laboratory indexes were acquired and compared between IVIG resistant group and IVIG responder group,as well as between CAD and NCAD subgroup.ROC curve analysis was used to determine threshold values of 2D STI measurements associated with IVIG resistance.Results Compared with IVIG responder group,coronary artery dilation,left ventricular mass and left ventricular mass index increased,systolic global longitudinal strain (GLS) and systolic global circumferential strain (GCS) decreased,albumin,erythrocyte sedimentation rate,C-reactive protein and platelet increased in IVIG resistant group (all P＜0.05).Taking absolute GLS 16.8％ as a threshold,the area under curve (AUC) was 0.769 (P=0.021),sensitivity,specificity in diagnosis of IVIG resistant was 79.27％,68.36％.Taking absolute GCS 15.9％ as a threshold,AUC was 0.749 (P=0.038),sensitivity,specificity in diagnosis of IVIG resistant was 71.43％,57.28％.Conclusion IVIG resistant KD patients present significantly greater systolic dysfunction compared with responders in patients with KD,which may be the results of myocardium infection other than coronary artery lesions.2D STI may predict myocardial injury in IVIG resistant KD patients.
