There has still been controversy on selection of approapreate treatments for elderly patients with acetabular fracture who are rapidly increasing in number. Although the treatment principle for them is anatomical reduction, effective fixation and early mobilization, choice of a proper treatment has turned to be a new hot spot for clinical research because the physical status, bone quality and fracture type of the elderly population are special. With unceasing achievements in medicine, surgical techniques and implants, the management ideas and strategies for elderly acetabular fractures have become gradually mature and diversified. The current major protocols include conserverative treatment, open reduction and internal fixation and total hip arthroplasty. In order to enhance the surgeons'knowledge of elderly acetabular fractures and summarize the cilinical experiences in management of them, we present this review to illustrate the current achievements and new development trends.

Objective To understand the clinical characteristics of pediatric patients who developed H1N1 influenza A virus-associated pneumonia during the outbreak of H1N1 influenza A in Shanghai. MethodsA dcscriptivc study was done to analyze the clinical and epidemiologic characteristics of 30 hospitalized children who developed complicated pneumonia caused by H1N1 influenza A virus infection in 2009 in Shanghai. The comparison of medians was done using rank sum test and comparison of rates was done using exact chi-square test. Results Among thirty pediatric patients with H1N1 influenza A virus-associated pneumonia, the median age was 5.9 years old, five cases (16.7 %) had pre-existing medical conditions. Twenty cases (66.7 % ) had been exposed to the classmates or family membcrs with fever. All cases had fever and cough. Eleven cases (36.7 %00 ) had tachypnca and ten (33.3%) had wheeze. Eleven cases (36.7%) showed white blood cell (WBC)<4.0 × 109/L and 2 (6. 7%) had thrombocytopenia. All patients had bilateral or unilatcral patchy infiltrates in the lung indicated by chest X-ray and four (13. 3%) had extensive infiltrates with the evidence of pulmonary edema. One (3. 3%) critically ill child with pneumonia, chest computed tomography scan revealed lung fibrosis 3 months and 9 months after illness onset. Three(10. 0%) cases had pneumomediastinum and subcutaneous emphysema. Six cases (20. 0%) were complicated with acute respiratory failure, three (10. 0%) with acute asthmatic attack and one (3. 3%) with encephalitis. All patients were treated with oseltamivir plus antibiotics and four required mechanical ventilation. All patients survived. The median duration of fever in group with oseltamivir given within 2 days of fever onset was statistically shorter than that in group with oseltamivir given 2 days after fever onset (2 days vs 5 days, Z= -8. 015, P<0. 01). Conclusions Both pre-school age and schoolage children may develop complicated severe respiratory diseases after H1N1 influenza A virus infection. Early initiation of oseltamivir may shorten the duration of fever and reduce the occurrence of severe complications.

Objective:To investigate the safety of early hip fracture surgery for elderly patients on clopidogrel.Methods:This retrospective study included 242 consecutive elderly patients (≥65 years) with acute hip fracture who had undergone surgery at Department of Orthopaedic Trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital between November 2016 and April 2017. Of them, 20 were assigned into the study group who had taken clopidogrel before injury but discontinued its use within 4 days before surgery. They were 6 males and 14 females, with a median age of 80 years (77, 81). Their operation procedures for hip fracture included internal fixation with cannulated screws for femoral neck fracture in 2 cases, hemiarthroplasty for displaced femoral neck fracture in 11 cases, and internal fixation for intertrochanteric fracture in 7 cases. The control group included 222 patients who had undergone the same operative procedures but not taken any antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs. The 2 groups were compared in terms of time between admission and operation, operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, perioperative transfusion and complications related to bleeding to analyze the safety of early surgery.Results:There was no significant difference in the preoperative general data between the 2 groups, showing comparability ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in the time between admission and operation [42.5 (36.3, 48.0) h for the study group versus 43.0 (28.0, 61.0) h for the control group] ( P=0.870). The median time between the last use of clopidogrel and operation was 55.0 (30.5, 71.0) h. There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in preoperative hemoglobin, operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, rate or amount of perioperative blood transfusion, or rate or amount of wound drainage ( P>0.05). The rate of general anesthesia was significantly higher for the study group (45.0%, 9/20) than for the control group (18.5%,41/222) ( P=0.012). No complications related to spinal hematoma occurred in the patients receiving spinal anesthesia from the study group. Wound hematoma and subsequent infection occurred in 2 patients from the control group. Conclusion:Early hip fracture surgery is safe for elderly patients on clopidogrel.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of perioperative fasting management in patients with orthopaedic trauma waiting for elective surgery (those combined with diabetes mellitus included) and the surgeons' awareness in China.Methods:From November 1st to December 31st, 2021, the questionnaire forms were distributed through WeChat in the exchange group of National Enhanced Recovery Surgery (ERAS) and the exchange group of national training orthopaedists in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital. The survey contents included: time for preoperative water deprivation and for postoperative recovery of drinking in patients without diabetes mellitus, the rationales for orthopaedists to choose perioperative dietary management, the orthopaedists'understanding of the existing guidelines, time for preoperative water deprivation and postoperative recovery of drinking and diabetes-related issues in patients with diabetes mellitus, and the time for postoperative recovery in all the patients (For the postoperative recovery of eating, there is no difference between patients with and without diabetes mellitus). The relationships were analyzed between some professional data of the orthopaedists and their rationales for choice of management strategies and their understanding of the guidelines.Results:A total of 565 valid questionnaires were collected. 12.92% (73/565) of orthopaedists required their patients without diabetes mellitus not to drink for at least 2 hours. In fact, the proportion of water prohibition from 0 o'clock on the day of operation was still the highest [24.07% (136/565)]. Respectively, 22.83% (129/565) and 42.12% (238/565) of the orthopaedists chose "water intake is allowed once awakened" and "water intake after at least 6 hours after operation" for their patients without diabetes mellitus. 33.98% (192/565) of the orthopaedists required all the patients fasted for at least 6 hours before surgery, and 44.25% (250/565) of the orthopaedists chose "eating can be resumed if there is no discomfort for 2 hours after water intake" .21.06% (119/565) of the orthopaedists demonstrated that they were quite familiar with the guidelines and carried out perioperative dietary management according to the guidelines. The management of water deprivation was more inconsistent for patients with diabetes mellitus, and more hospitals followed the traditional principles for water deprivation. The proportions of water deprivation starting at 0 o'clock on the day of operation, 8 hours before operation, 6 hours before operation and 4 hours before operation accounted respectively for 22.83% (129/565), 19.12% (108/565), 21.95% (124/565), and 18.94%% (107/565). The level of an orthopaedist's hospital and the professional rank of an orthopaedist were the factors related to the orthopaedist's understanding of the guidelines ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The current perioperative dietary management guidelines are not widely implemented or well known in Chinese faculties of orthopaedic trauma. The process of perioperative dietary management needs to be optimized for the patients combined with diabetes mellitus.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of perioperative fasting abbreviation in traumatic patients with orthopaedic trauma and diabetes mellitus undergoing selective surgery.Methods:The patients were selected for this prospective nonrandomized controlled study who had undergone selective surgery from June 2019 to June 2021 at Department of Orthopaedic Trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital. They were divided into an intervention group and a control group according to the wards where they stayed. The intervention group was fasted for solids from 0 o'clock on the surgery day and received oral solution with 6.25% maltodextrin which had been prepared by the nutritional department 3 hours prior to surgery. The control group was fasted for either liquids or solids from the midnight before surgery. All patients were evaluated according to the wake-up score and defensive reflex score after surgery. Once they were awakened, they were allowed slag-free drinks. Normal food was allowed if there was no discomfort after 2 hours. The 2 groups were compared in terms of basic information, actual preoperative fasting time, total amount of preoperative drinking, and postoperative time for initial drinking and eating. The perioperative subjective feelings (anxiety, thirst, hunger, nausea, fatigue, dizziness, sweating, stomach discomfort, etc.), grip strength and blood glucose were observed and compared between the 2 groups. Adverse reactions in the 2 groups were also observed.Results:A total of 135 patients were included, including 52 in the intervention group and 83 in the control group. The intervention group consisted of 22 males and 30 females aged from 30 to 84 years; the control group consisted of 39 males and 44 females aged from 29 to 81 years. There was no significant difference in the basic information between the 2 groups, showing comparability ( P>0.05). The intervention group had significantly shorter preoperative fasting time [3.5 (2.5, 6.3) h versus 12.0 (9.0, 16.0) h], significantly higher water intake before surgery [300 (200, 300) mL versus 100 (100, 200) mL], significantly shorter postoperative fasting time [0.08 (0, 1.25) h versus 2.00(0, 6.00) h], and significantly reduced time to return to normal diet [2.0 (2.0, 2.3) h versus 3.0(2.0, 6.0) h] than the control group (all P<0.05). The symptoms of anxiety, fatigue, sweating, and stomach discomfort in the intervention group were significantly fewer than those in the control group throughout the evaluation period. The thirst in the intervention group was significantly alleviated than that in the control group immediately after returning to the ward after surgery, and the dizziness and hunger were significantly alleviated than those in the control group when the patients left the ward to the operation room before surgery and immediately after returning to the ward. The symptom of nausea after returning to normal diet in the intervention group was significantly relieved compared with the control group. All the comparisons above showed statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). The blood glucose in the intervention group 2 hours after taking slag-free drinks was significantly higher than that in the control group ( Z=-2.108, P=0.035). There was no significant difference in the blood glucose between the 2 groups during other measurement periods ( P>0.05). There were no serious adverse reactions in either of the 2 groups. Conclusion:The protocol of perioperative fasting abbreviation may be safe and feasible for the patients with orthopaedic trauma and diabetes mellitus undergoing selective surgery, because it shows benefits of improving the patients' subjective feelings and stabilizing the blood glucose perioperatively.

OBJECTIVETo further investigate whether the functional polymorphisms of dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) and dopamine D3 receptor (DRD3) genes associate with the development of tardive dyskinesia (TD) in schizophrenia, and whether the interactive effects of DRD2, DRD3, 5-hydroxytryptamine 2C receptor (HTR2C) and manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) genes contribute to the severity of TD.
METHODSThe patients with schizophrenia were assessed for TD by the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS). Eventually, 42 schizophrenics with persistent TD were in the TD group, and 59 schizophrenics without TD were in the non-TD group. The polymorphism of each candidate gene was analyzed using a polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis.
RESULTSThe genotype distributions of the candidate genes in the groups were all consistent with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Allele frequencies for -759C/T and -697G/C polymorphisms in HTR2C gene showed a significant excess of -697 variant (P<0.05) in the patients with TD, compared against those in patients without TD. There were no differences in the distributions of the allelic frequencies and genotypes of Taq I. A polymorphism in DRD2 gene, of Ser/Gly polymorphism in DRD3 gene, and of Ala-9Val polymorphism in MnSOD gene between the TD group and non-TD group (P>0.05). Interestingly, as compared with the other joint allelic types, a significant excess of carrying both DRD3 variant allele (Gly) and MnSOD wild allele (Val) was found in the TD group (P<0.05). However, neither the allele and genotypes nor the clinical demographic characteristics contributed to the higher total AIMS scores in the patients of the TD group. There were no significant differences in any of the clinical demographic characteristics between the subgroups of any genotype in TD and non-TD groups.
CONCLUSIONThe excess of -697 variant in the promoter regulation region of the HTR2C gene may be a risk factor for the susceptibility to the occurrence of TD in Chinese male patients with schizophrenia. A combination of DRD3 variant allele (Gly) and MnSOD wild allele (Val) may increase the susceptibility to the development of TD.

Objective:To analyze the compliance with enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol in geriatric patients with fresh fracture.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on the data of the patients with fresh extremity fracture which had been included in the ERAS perioperative protocol database during May 2019 and January 2022 at Department of Orthopaedic Trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital. The patients ≥65 years were selected as a study group which was matched by a control group of the patients < 65 years in sex, fracture type and date frame of hospitalization at a ratio of 1∶1. The 2 groups were compared in the compliance with the 14 ERAS core perioperative elements.Results:The study group and the control group each included 66 patients who were matched in sex and fracture type. 62.1% (41/66) of the patients in the study group had combined diseases, significantly more than that [16.7% (11/66)] in the control group( P<0.001). Altogether, the compliance with the 14 ERAS core perioperative elements was 78.6 (71.4, 85.7) % in both groups, showing no significant difference between them ( P>0.05). Respectively, the compliance with the postoperative oral intake in the study group (80.3%, 53/66) was significantly lower than that in the control group (92.4%, 61/66) ( P<0.05); the compliance with the other 13 elements showed no statistically significant difference between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The ERAS perioperative protocol can be carried out smoothly in geriatric patients with fresh fracture whose compliance may be comparable to that of the none-elderly patients.
