Objective To compare the curative effect and biomechanical performance of cannulated compression screw (CCS) and dynamic hip screw-blade (DHS-B) in the treatment of patients with femoral neck fracture.Methods Between February 2010 and February 2014,102 patients with femoral neck fracture were treated with CCS or DHS-B at our department.They were 54 males and 48 females,aged from 15 to 86 years.There were 30 subcapital fractures,51 transcervical ones and 21 base ones.CCS was used in 60 patients and DHS-B in 42.In-hospital data were collected retrospectively to compare the curative effects in 2 groups.Furthermore,femoral neck fracture models were established using 12 adult cadaveric femoral specimens.The 12 models were randomized into 2 equal groups (n =6).Group A was subjected to fixation by 3 CCSs and group B to fixation by DHS-B.The 2 groups were compared in terms of axial loading test,rotation test and destructive axial loading test.Results The operation time (59.4 ± 20.2 min),incision size (4.1 ±0.6 cm) and intraoperative blood loss (25.9 ±9.9 mL) in the CCS group were significantly less than those in the DHS-B group (88.6±22.9 min,12.1 ±1.2cmand 156.7±107.1 mL) (P ＜0.05).The Harris hip score for the DHS-B group (91.9±9.8) was significantly higher than that for the CCS group (87.2 ± 9.2) (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in hospital stay,partial weight-bearing time,or postoperative complications (P ＞ 0.05).At 500 N vertical loading,the stress values at both medial and lateral sides of the femur in group A were significantly smaller than those in group B (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences between groups A and B in the average sinking displacement of femoral head or the torque at a torsion angle of 6° (P ＞ 0.05).The maximum load in group A (2,135 ±120 N) was significantly smaller than that in group B (2,986 ± 98 N) (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion In treatment of femoral neck fracture,DHS-B fixation is obviously superior to CCS fixation,because the former is in better agreement with the femoral biomechanical property,and performs better in anti-rotation and anti-compression,leading to better functional recovery of the affected hip.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of TiRobot-assisted minimally invasive percutaneous screw fixation for pelvic fractures.Methods:The clinical data of 44 patients with pelvic fracture were retrospectively analyzed who had undergone TiRobot-assisted minimally invasive percutaneous screw fixation from May 2018 to April 2021 at Department of Orthopedic Traumatology, The First Hospital of Jilin University. There were 30 males and 14 females, aged from 11 to 78 years (average, 40.6 years). According to the Tile classification, there were 20 type C1 fractures, 23 type C2 fractures and one type C3 fracture. The time from injury to operation averaged 8.2 days (from 1 to 41 days). The minimally invasive percutaneous screw fixation was assisted by the orthopaedic TiRobot in all patients. Operation time, fluoroscopy time, reduction quality, complications and functional recovery at the final follow-up were recorded and analyzed.Results:A total of 96 screws were implanted in this cohort. The total fluoroscopy time ranged from 17 to 66 s, with an average of 17.8 s for each single screw. The operation time ranged from 50 to 355 min, averaging 179.7 min. According to the Matta criteria, the reduction quality was rated as excellent in 36 cases, as good in 5 and as fair in 3, yielding an excellent and good rate of 93.2%(41/44). All the 44 patients were followed up for 6 to 42 months (average, 20.4 months). The fracture healing time ranged from 2 to 6 months, averaging 3.3 months. The Majeed scores at the final follow-up ranged from 51 to 100 points (average, 83.7 points); there were 28 excellent, 8 good, 7 fair and one poor cases, giving an excellent to good rate of 81.8% (36/44). Follow-up found no such complications as iatrogenic neurovascular injury, incision infection, malunion, implant loosening or fracture re-displacement in all the 44 patients.Conclusion:TiRobot-assisted minimally invasive internal fixation can result in fine clinical efficacy for pelvic fractures, showing advantages of accuracy, minimal invasion and safety.

Objective To observe the changes of cell cycle,apoptosis and proliferation of endometrial cancer cells after the expression and down-regulation of Ezrin in endometrial cancer cells and to explore whether Ezrin may be a candidate gene for targeted therapy.Methods Endometrial cancer cells were from Shanghai Institute of Cell Research,of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences in February 2017 and divided into blank control group and siEzrin group according to the intervention methods.Western blot and qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of Ezrin protein and mRNA in endometrial cell lines.Small interfering RNA (siRNA) was used to transfect HEC-1B cell and down-regulate Ezrin.Cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry.MTT assay was used to detect multiplication.Results Western blot showed that Ezrin protein was expressed in Ishikawa (31.742 ± 5.832)、HEC-1A (16.326 ± 3.135)、HEC-1B(17.636±4.426) and KLE(14.862±5.109) and qRT-PCR showed that mRNA was expressed in Ishikawa (2.513±0.725),HEC-1A (1.655±0.692),HEC-1B (3.237±0.411) and KLE (0.962±0.235) cell lines,and expressed highest in HEC-1B cells (F=6.173,P＜0.05;F=7.042,P＜0.05).Flow cytometry assay showed that compared with blank control group less cells stayed in G1 phase and G2 phase,more stayed in S phase (t=3.118,P＜0.05;t=5.435,P＜0.05;t=3.332,P＜0.05).The apoptotic rate of HEC-1B cells increased from (9.84 ± 2.37) ％ to (17.64 ± 5.96) ％ (t =8.963,P ＜ 0.01) after Ezrin was downregulated.MTT assay showed that the proliferation of HEC-1B cells in 72 h and 96 h siEzrin transfection group was lower than that in blank control group (t =3.209,P＜ 0.05;t =3.726,P＜ 0.05).Conclusion Down-regulating of Ezrin may promote more endometrial cancer cells stay in S phase and promote apoptosis,inhibit proliferation,Ezrin may become target candidate gene in target therapy.
