Objective:To investigate whether the Garden indexes can serve as a criterion for rotational displacement of femoral neck fracture.Methods:Ten cadaveric specimens of healthy human proximal femur were used for this study. They came from 3 males and 2 females who had died at the age from 45 to 70 years old. A Kirschner wire of 2.0 mm in diameter was implanted into the center of the femoral head. Osteotomy was conducted perpendicular to the middle line of the femoral neck. The rotational angles were marked on the distal osteotomy surface. Each cadaveric specimen was rotated sequentially at pronation and supination angles of 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, 70° and 90°, respectively. X-ray images of anterior-posterior and lateral views were taken to record all the rotations of the specimens. Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) were used to measure the Garden indexes and compare them among anterior-posterior and lateral X-ray films of different pronation and supination angles. Changes in the area of the femoral head fovea at different rotation angles were observed as well.Results:There were no significant differences in the auterior-posterior or latera Garden indexes from 0° to pronation or supination 30°, with all the Garden values >155° ( P>0.05); from pronation of 40° to pronation of 90°, the Garden indexes were 152.36°±1.41°, 146.04°±1.64°, 143.95°±0.60° and 141.73°±0.60° for anterior-posterior views and 172.54°±0.86°, 168.57°±0.98°, 157.18°±1.17° and 156.47°±1.63° for lateral views, showing a significant difference between rotational angles ( P<0.05); from supination of 40° to supination of 90°, the Garden indexes were 151.67°±1.06°, 147.32°±1.82°, 142.77°±0.75° and 139.88°±1.48° for anterior-posterior views and 172.28°±0.79°, 166.76°±1.02°, 155.67°±1.74° and 154.16°±1.27° for lateral views, showing a significant difference between rotational angles ( P<0.05). The area of the femoral head fovea decreased gradually with the increase in pronation angle, and increased gradually with the increase in supination angle. Conclusions:The Garden indexes cannot serve as an accurate indication of rotational displacement in reduction of femoral neck fracture when the pronation or supination angles ranges from 0° to 30°. Changes in the area of the femoral head fovea can help determine the rotational displacement of the femoral neck fracture.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the correlation of CD(+)4 T lymphocyte count and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) with periodontal status in HIV-positive patients with periodontitis.

METHODSTwenty subjects were selected according to inclusion criteria. The plasmatic CD(+)4 T lymphocytes were counted. All the individuals were divided into three groups, group A (CD(+)4 T lymphocyte count < 200 cell/mm(3)), group B (200 cell/mm(3) ≤ CD(+)4 T lymphocyte count ≤ 500 cell/mm(3)) and group C (CD(+)4 T lymphocyte count > 500 cell/mm(3)). Periodontal indexes, including plaque index(PLI), bleeding index(BI), attachment level(AL) and probing depth(PD) were recorded.GCF samples were taken from 120 index teeth by means of sterile paper strips.GCF PGE2 levels were determined by radioimmunoassays. Mann-Whitney was used to compare the periodontal indexes and PGE2 levels among the three groups. Partial correlations and Spearman correlations were applied to analyze the correlation of CD(+)4 T lymphocytes count and PGE2 in gingival crevicular fluid with periodontal status.

RESULTSBI value, PGE2 concentration and total PGE2 were 3.00(2.00), 90.75(30.60) µg/L, 447.58 (243.08) pg in group B, which were higher than those in group A[2.00(1.25), 79.75(30.50) µg/L and 339.52 (200.97) pg respectively] and group C[2.00(1.00), 73.38 (14.83) µg/L and 299.18 (108.33) pg respectively] (P < 0.0167). But the differences of PD and AL among the three groups were not significantly different(P > 0.0167). The correlations were observed between CD(+)4 T lymphocyte count and BI for the subpopulations with CD(+)4 T lymphocyte count <200 cells/mm(3) (r = 0.657, P < 0.05) and between 200-500 cells/mm(3) (r = -0.369, P < 0.05). PGE2 concentration was negatively correlated with BI, PD and AL (P < 0.05), and total PGE2 was positively correlated with PD and AL(P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSThere was an association between the periodontal status and CD(+)4 T lymphocyte count in HIV(+) patients.GCF PGE2 level was related to periodontal parameters including BI, PD and AL.

Objective: To study the factors associated with efficacy of nucleos(t)ide analogues with sequential interferon in HBeAg negative chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients. Methods: HBeAg negative CHB patients with NA treatment received PEG-IFNα 2a 180 μg subcutaneously once weekly. NA was continually used with PEG-IFN 2a during the first 12 weeks. HBsAg level and HBV DNA load were observed in the sequential pre-treatment (baseline), 12th, 24th, 36th, 48th, 72nd and 96th weeks of sequential therapy in all patients. Results: Of the 26 HBeAg negative CHB patients, 6 (23.1%) achieved HBsAg loss/seroconversion. The comparison between HBsAg loss/ seroconversion group and the group not achieved HBsAg loss/ seroconversion showed that the baseline HBsAg level in HBsAg loss/seroconversion group was 2.210 log₁₀IU/ml, was lower than (t=-4.252, P=0.000) HBsAg-positive patients (3.385 log₁₀IU/ml) in the groupp that not achieved HBsAg loss/seroconversion, the difference was statistically significant in HBsAg decreased at 72^nd, 96^th week in the course of sequential therapy (3.511 vs. 0.723log₁₀IU/ml, 4.291 vs. 0.737 log₁₀IU/ml) (t=6.712, P=0.000, t=13.319; P=0.000, 0.00); the difference was not statistically significant in age, gender and NA therapy time between the two groups; 12 (46.2%) of patients achieved sustained virologic response (SVR), the baseline of HBsAg level was 2.575 log₁₀IU/ml, was less than (t=-4.319, P=0.000) the patients who did not achieve SVR (3.576 log₁₀IU/ml), the difference was statistically significant in HBsAg decrease of each time in the course of sequential therapy between the two groups (0.612 vs. 0.088, 1.192 vs. 0.107, 1.566 vs. 0.167, 1.817 vs. 0.176, 2.424 vs. 0.193, 2.188 vs. 0.014, log₁₀IU/ml) (t=3.109, 4.717, 4.500, 4.544, 5.560, 4.265, P=0.008, 0.010, 0.001, 0.001, 0.000, 0.003), the difference was not statistically significant in gender and NA therapy time, the difference was statistically significant in age (30.8 vs. 39.9 years) ( t=-2.219, P=0.038). Of 9 CHB patients whose baseline HBV DNA were positive, 5 patients (55.6%) had HBV DNA loss after sequential treatment, the patients whose HBV DNA loss with HBsAg decreased at 12^th week in the course of sequential therapy, but there was no influence in the HBsAg decrease/loss after 12^th week, the difference was not statistically significant in age, gender, NA therapy time, HBsAg and HBsAg decrease in the course of sequential therapy between HBV DNA-negative and HBV DNA-positive groups. Conclusions To HBeAg-negative CHB, patients with low baseline HBsAg (2 log10 IU/ml level) and significantly lower HBsAg decrease early were more likely to receive SVR. Among them, prolonged interferon therapy is easier to achieve HBsAg loss/seroconversion.

Objective:To compare the long-term prognosis between open versus closed reduction and internal fixation in the treatment of unstable pelvic fractures.Methods:The data of 402 consecutive patients with unstable pelvic fracture were retrospectively analyzed who had been treated at The First Medical Center and The Fourth Medical Center, PLA General Hospital, and Strategic Support Force Specialty Medical Center from March 2011 to March 2017. This cohort was divided into 2 groups according to the reduction methods. In the open group of 194 cases subjected to open reduction and internal fixation, there were 133 males and 61 females with a median age of 43.0 (30.7, 51.0) years, and 35 cases of type B and 159 cases of type C by the Tile classification. In the closed group of 208 cases subjected to closed reduction and internal fixation, there were 115 males and 93 females with a median age of 45.5 (32.0, 56.0) years, and 40 cases of type B and 168 cases of type C by the Tile classification. The 2 groups were compared in terms of 12-items Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) scores [physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS)] at the last follow-up, time from injury to operation, frequency of intraoperative X-ray fluoroscopy, intraoperative and postoperative blood transfusion, operation time, and quality of postoperative fracture reduction.Results:There was no statistically significant difference between the 2 groups in the preoperative general data except for the gender, showing the 2 groups were comparable ( P>0.05). This cohort of 402 patients was followed up for 7.8(6.2, 8.8) years. At the last follow-up, the PCS [49.9 (45.4, 55.4) points] and MCS [53.1 (46.4, 57.6) points] in the closed group were significantly higher than those in the open group [48.2 (41.4, 52.7) and 46.5 (40.6, 53.6) points] ( P<0.05). The closed group incurred significantly shorter time from injury to operation [6 (5, 8) d] and operation time [180 (126, 260) min] than the open group [9 (6, 13) d and 240 (165, 334) min], significantly less intraoperative and postoperative blood transfusion [1.5 (0, 4.0) U] than the open group [5.0 (2.9, 8.0) U], significantly higher frequency of intraoperative X-ray fluoroscopy [104.5 (85.0, 132.0) times] than the open group [21.0 (18.0, 26.0) times], and a significantly higher excellent and good rate of postoperative fracture reduction (92.8%, 193/208) than the open group (86.6%, 168/194) (all P<0.05). Conclusion:In the treatment of patients with unstable pelvic fractures, compared with open reduction and internal fixation, closed reduction and internal fixation can not only significantly shorten the waiting time and operation time of patients, reduce the transfusion during operation, but also achieve better fracture reduction to ultimately improve the quality of life of patients.

Objective:To explore which configuration schemes of proximal humerus internal locking system (PHILOS) fixation with endosteal augmentation can provide the optimal biomechanical stability for treatment of osteoporotic proximal humeral fractures by means of finite element analysis.Methods:Based on the CT data of the humerus of an old female volunteer (78 years old, with a bone density T-value of -3.0), a three-dimensional finite element model of the humerus was established by digital medical software such as Mimics 19.0, Geomagic Studio 12, and Creo 2.0 ANSYS Workbench2019. Next, a model of unstable proximal humerus fracture was established and subjected respectively to 5 different fixations: simple PHILOS fixation (PHILOS group), PHILOS plus 6-cm fibula fixation with calcar screws (PHILOS-F-C-6 group), PHILOS plus 6-cm fibula fixation without calcar screws (PHILOS-F-6 group), PHILOS plus 9-cm fibula fixation with calcar screws (PHILOS-F-C-9), and PHILOS plus 9-cm fibula fixation without calcar screws (PHILOS-F-9 group). After a stress mode of shoulder joint abduction at 25° was simulated, a compressive load of 200N was applied to the 5 fixation models. The stress distribution and displacement of fracture ends in different fixation models were tested, and the biomechanical stability was compared among the 5 different internal fixations.Results:Under a shoulder joint abduction at 25° and a load of 200 N, the maximum stress and the displacement of the fracture ends in PHILOS-F-C-9 group (38.678 Mpa and 0.012 mm) decreased by 30.08% and 45.45%, respectively, compared with PHILOS-F-C-6 group (55.321 Mpa and 0.022 mm), and decreased by 12.48% and 15.38%, respectively, in PHILOS-F-9 group (77.012 Mpa and 0.033 mm) compared with PHILOS-F-6 group (88.106 Mpa and 0.039 mm). The maximum stress and the displacement of the fracture ends in PHILOS-F-C-6 group decreased by 37.21% and 43.59%, respectively, compared with PHILOS-F-6 group while decreased by 49.83% and 63.63% in PHILOS-F-C-9 group compared with PHILOS-F-9 group, respectively.Conclusion:For treatment of osteoporotic proximal humeral fractures with medial instability, PHILOS fixation with longer fibula endosteal augmentation plus insertion of calcar screws is a more appropriate choice which can reduce the stress of internal fixation and reduce the displacement of the fracture ends.
