Objective To evaluate the effect ofJiawei-Danggui-Buxue decoction in the treatment for the patients with hemorrhagic anemia after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods A total of 63 TKA patients with hemorrhagic anemia were included, and were divided into the treatment group (31 patients) and the control group (32 patients). All patients started to take medicine the second day after surgery. The control group took the Ferrous Succinate Tablets and the treatment group took Jiawei-Danggui-Buxue decoction in the following 4 weeks. The Hb and Hct were detected,and the changes of TCM syndrome scores and the total effect rates of anemiawere observed.Results The total effect rate of TCM syndrome scores in the treatment group was 93.54%, which was significantly higher than control group 83.87% (P<0.05); The total effect rate of anemia in the treatment group was 90.32%, which is significantly higher than control group 75.00% (P<0.05). At the fifteenth day after operation,. And at the postoperative 29th day, the levels of Hemoglobin (129.61 ± 13.02 g/Lvs. 113.35 ± 15.46 g/L,t=6.245) and Hematocrit (0.45% ± 0.03 %vs. 0.41% ± 0.04%,t=5.962) in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusions TheJiawei-Danggui-Buxue decoctionimprovethe Hb, HCT and the clinical effect rates of anemia and TCM syndromes for the patients with hemorrhagic anemia after TKA.

Objective:To study the collapse of the contralateral femoral head after the total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with bilateral steroid-induced femoral head necrosis leg-length discrepancy (LLD) influences.Methods:A total of 108 patients with bilateral steroid-induced femoral head necrosis who were treated in Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi′an Jiaotong University from June 2014 to June 2016 underwent THA surgery on the hip joints that had symptoms and developed to Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) Ⅲ. At the same time, the non-surgical hip-preserving treatment of the non-collapsed femoral head developed to the ARCO Ⅱ stage was performed. The follow-up period was 2 years, and 98 cases were finally included. According to the size of the leg-length discrepancy [LLD<3 mm group ( n=50), LLD≥3 mm group ( n=48)] and the type of leg-length discrepancy[non collapse side longer group ( n=58) and shorter group ( n=58)], the collapse of the femoral head and the THA were observed. Results:Finally, a total of 56 cases of femoral head collapse occurred in the non collapse side of the hip, of which 50 cases underwent THA within 24 months. There were significant statistical differences in THA and femoral head collapse between LLD<3 mm group and LLD≥3 mm group, non collapse side longer group and non collapse side shorter group ( P<0.05). The 2-year survival rate without collapse in the LLD<3 mm group and LLD≥3 mm group were 52.1% and 34.0%, respectively, and the 2-year survival rates in the longer and shorter non-collapsed limb groups were 56.9% and 22.5%, respectively. Compared with patients with moderate lesions, the survival rate of femoral heads in patients with larger lesions was lower ( OR: 4.25, 95% CI: 1.55-11.26; P=0.003). LLD<3 mm group ( OR: 0.24, 95% CI: 0.06-0.50; P<0.01) or non collapse side longer group ( OR: 0.13, 95% CI: 0.04-0.29; P<0.01) had lower risk of contralateral femoral head collapse after THA. Conclusions:For patients with bilateral steroid-induced femoral head necrosis who have collapsed lateral THA, postoperative leg-length discrepancy extremities is a potential risk factor for collapse of non-collapsed femoral head. LLD<3 mm and avoiding shortening of the uncollapsed limb may reduce the risk of collapse of the uncollapsed femoral head.

BACKGROUND:Total knee arthroplasty is the main therapeutic regimen for end-stage osteoarthritis.However,diabetes mellitus can affect the treatment effect and prognosis. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of diabetes mellitus on perioperative blood loss and postoperative pain in patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty. METHODS:A retrospective study was conducted on 154 patients who underwent primary total knee arthroplasty and met the inclusion criteria in the Osteonecrosis and Joint Reconstruction Ward of Xi'an Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University from January to April 2021.Patients were divided into a non-diabetic group and a diabetic group according to their diagnosis,with 32 cases in the diabetic group,9 males and 23 females,aged 55 to 80(66.58±7.16)years and 122 cases in the non-diabetic group,34 males and 88 females,aged 44 to 83(66.69±6.63)years.Perioperative blood loss(including total blood loss,hidden blood loss,the falling value of hemoglobin and hematocrit)was calculated for both groups.Visual analog scale scores,hospital for special surgery knee score,and Caprini scores were recorded preoperatively and postoperatively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Total blood loss was significantly lower in the non-diabetic group(729.93±233.83 mL)than that in the diabetic group(853.69±184.91 mL)(P<0.05).Latent hidden blood loss was also significantly lower in the non-diabetic group(624.40±233.19 mL)than that in the diabetic group(749.08±179.49 mL)(P<0.05).(2)In the non-diabetic group,the visual analog scale scores preoperatively and 1 month postoperatively were significantly lower than those in the diabetic group(P<0.05).The differences in visual analog scale scores at 3 days and 3 months postoperatively between the non-diabetic group and the diabetic group were not statistically significant(P>0.05).(3)The hospital for special surgery knee score at 1 month postoperatively was significantly higher in the non-diabetic group than that in the diabetic group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in hospital for special surgery knee score between the two groups at 3 months postoperatively(P>0.05).(4)There was no statistically significant difference in preoperative and postoperative Caprini scores between the two groups(P>0.05).(5)It is concluded that having diabetes increases total and occult hidden blood loss in primary total knee arthroplasty.In the short term after total knee arthroplasty,diabetes increases the patient's pain and affects the recovery of joint function,but the negative effects fade with time.

BACKGROUND:For non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head,if the femoral head collapses,it will have a great impact on the normal life of the patients.Thus,it is necessary to use an appropriate way to evaluate the risk of femoral head collapse and then to take targeted measures to delay the process of femoral head collapse. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the natural course of early osteonecrosis of the femoral head(without collapse)under different locations of necrotic lesions. METHODS:121 patients(191 hips)with early non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head who were treated in the Outpatient Department of Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University from October 2016 to October 2017 were enrolled in this study.The clinical data of all patients were followed up for 5 years to observe the collapse of osteonecrosis of the femoral head and the risk coefficient of femoral head collapse among different JIC types.The collapse rate of osteonecrosis of the femoral head was calculated during the follow-up. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)A total of 191 hips were included in this study.The femoral head collapsed in 86 hips during follow-up,with a total collapse rate of 45.0%.Among the influencing factors,age,ARCO stage and JIC classification were the main influencing factors of femoral head collapse(P<0.05),but body mass index,sex,incidence side and pathogenic factors were not the main influencing factors(P>0.05).(2)Among 191 hips,in JIC classification,the total collapse rates of type A,type B,type C1 and type C2 were 11.1%(2/18),30.2%(16/53),52.4%(43/82),and 65.8%(25/38),respectively.There were significant differences in the total collapse rate of the femoral head among all types(P<0.05).The collapse risk results showed that the collapse risk of type B,type C1 and type C2 was 2.41,5.22 and 7.89 times higher than that of type A,respectively.(3)Both JIC classification and ARCO stage were correlated with femoral head collapse(P<0.01).There was no significant difference in the collapse rate of the femoral head among all JIC types in ARCO I stage hips(P>0.05).In the hips with ARCO II stage,the collapse rates of the femoral head of JIC types A,B,C1 and C2 were 1.2%,19.5%,50.0%and 29.3%,respectively,and there were significant differences in the collapse rates among different types(P<0.05).(4)During follow-up,the collapse rates of the femoral head in the first to fifth years were 29.3%,7.9%,4.7%,2.6%and 0.5%,respectively.(5)Results showed that for early non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head,the risk of collapse of osteonecrosis of the femoral head is high within one year,and the location of the focus of osteonecrosis affects the risk of collapse of the femoral head.The effect of the location of the focus on the prognosis of the disease should be considered in clinical treatment.

BACKGROUND:Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is one of the refractory diseases in orthopedic diseases.The natural collapse course of osteonecrosis of the femoral head under different stages and types affects the progression and prognosis of the disease. OBJECTIVE:To explore the progression of natural collapse within 5 years in patients under the different classifications of China-Japan Friendship Hospital(CJFH)with stage Ⅱ osteonecrosis of the International Association for Research Circulation Osseous(ARCO),and to analyze the collapse rate and collapse risk of the femoral head under the different classifications of CJFH. METHODS:A retrospective study was performed to select patients diagnosed with ARCO Ⅱ stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head without collapse in the Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University from October 2016 to October 2017.According to whether it collapsed,the number of hips was divided into the collapse group(n=82)and the non-collapsed group(n=70).The collapse risk of patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head under different CJFH classifications,as well as the collapse time,number of collapses,and collapse rate within 5 years were counted,and then the Kaplan-Meier survival curve of the femoral head under different classification of CJFH was plotted. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)A total of 97 patients with 152 hips were enrolled,and 82 hips collapsed during the follow-up period,with a total collapse rate of 53.9%,of which the collapse rates of M type,C type,L1 type,L2 type,and L3 type were 0.0%,36.7%,51.4%,72.2%,and 77.8%,respectively,and the comparison between the groups was statistically significant(P<0.05).(2)In terms of collapse risk,the collapse risk of L1 type was 1.704 times that of C-type(P>0.05),while the collapse risks of L2 type and L3 type were 3.866 times and 6.423 times that of C type(P<0.05),respectively.(3)In terms of the Kaplan-Meier survival curve,the median survival time of the femoral head of ARCO Ⅱ stage patients was 3 years,with a 95%confidence interval of 2.885-3.471 years,and the survival rates of the femoral head at the first,third and fifth years were 65.1%(99/152),50.7%(77/152),and 46.1%(70/152),respectively.(4)These findings conclude that different CJFH classifications affect the collapse rate of ARCO Ⅱ stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head patients,among which L3 type patients have the highest collapse rate,followed by L2 type and L1 type patients;C type patients have a lower collapse rate,and M type patients do not collapse,which indicates that the preservation of the lateral column of the femoral head is of great significance for the natural collapse course of osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of mountain-type zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis (MT-ZVL) in Yangquan City, Shanxi Province from 2015 to 2020, so as to provide the scientific evidence for formulating the MT-ZVL control strategy. Methods The epidemiological data pertaining to MT-ZVL cases in Yangquan City from 2015 to 2020 were collected and descriptively analyzed. A Joinpoint regression model was created to analyze the trend in the MT-ZVL incidence in Yangquan City from 2015 to 2020 using annual percent change (APC). The sandflies surveillance data and the prevalence of Leishmania infections in dogs were collected in Yangquan City in 2020, and the regional distribution of sandflies density and sero-prevalence of Leishmania infections in dogs were calculated. In addition, the associations of sandflies density and sero-prevalence of Leishmania infections in dogs with the incidence of human MT-ZVL were examined using the linear correlation analysis. Results A total of 162 MT-ZVL cases were reported in Yangquan City, Shanxi Province from 2015 to 2020, with annual mean incidence of 1.9/105, and there were 4, 7, 16, 27, 33 cases and 75 cases with MT-ZVL reported from 2015 to 2020, appearing a tendency towards a rapid rise (APC = 72.79%, t = 11.10, P < 0.01). MT-ZVL cases were reported across the five counties (districts) of Yangquan City, and the cases predominantly occurred in Jiaoqu District (35.2%, 57/162) and Pingding County (33.3%, 54/162). MT-ZVL cases were predominantly detected in residents at ages of 15 years and older (71.6%, 116/162) and at ages of 0 to 2 years (22.2%, 36/162), with farmers (37.4%, 61/162) and diaspora children (24.5%, 40/162) as predominant occupations. The mean density of Phlebotomus chinensis was 6.3 sandflies per trap per night in Yangquan City from during the period from May to September, 2020, with the highest density observed in Jiaoqu District (12.6 sandflies per trap per night) and the lowest in Yuxian County (1.1 sandflies per trap per night), and there was a region-specific mean density of Ph. chinensis in Yangquan City (H = 17.282, P < 0.01). The sero-prevalence of serum anti-Leishmania antibody was 7.4% (2 996/40 573) in domestic dogs in Yangquan City, with the highest sero-prevalence seen in Jiaoqu District (16.6%, 1 444/8 677), and the lowest in Yuxian County (2.3%, 266/11 501), and there was a region-specific sero-prevalence rate of anti-Leishmania antibody in domestic dogs in Yangquan City (χ2 = 1 753.74, P < 0.01). The sero-prevalence of anti-Leishmania antibody was significantly higher in stray dogs (20.0%, 159/794) than in domestic dogs (χ2 = 176.63, P < 0.01). In addition, there were significant associations among the sandflies density, sero-prevalence of anti-Leishmania antibody in domestic dogs and the incidence of human MT-ZVL (r = 0.832 to 0.870, all P values < 0.05). Conclusions The prevalence of MT-ZVL appeared a tendency towards a rapid rise in Yangquan City from 2015 to 2020, and systematic interventions are urgently needed for MT-ZVL control.

Objective:
Several COVID-19 patients have overlapping comorbidities. The independent role of each component contributing to the risk of COVID-19 is unknown, and how some non-cardiometabolic comorbidities affect the risk of COVID-19 remains unclear.
Methods:
A retrospective follow-up design was adopted. A total of 1,160 laboratory-confirmed patients were enrolled from nine provinces in China. Data on comorbidities were obtained from the patients' medical records. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to estimate the odds ratio (
Results:
Overall, 158 (13.6%) patients were diagnosed with severe illness and 32 (2.7%) had unfavorable outcomes. Hypertension (2.87, 1.30-6.32), type 2 diabetes (T2DM) (3.57, 2.32-5.49), cardiovascular disease (CVD) (3.78, 1.81-7.89), fatty liver disease (7.53, 1.96-28.96), hyperlipidemia (2.15, 1.26-3.67), other lung diseases (6.00, 3.01-11.96), and electrolyte imbalance (10.40, 3.00-26.10) were independently linked to increased odds of being severely ill. T2DM (6.07, 2.89-12.75), CVD (8.47, 6.03-11.89), and electrolyte imbalance (19.44, 11.47-32.96) were also strong predictors of unfavorable outcomes. Women with comorbidities were more likely to have severe disease on admission (5.46, 3.25-9.19), while men with comorbidities were more likely to have unfavorable treatment outcomes (6.58, 1.46-29.64) within two weeks.
Conclusion
Besides hypertension, diabetes, and CVD, fatty liver disease, hyperlipidemia, other lung diseases, and electrolyte imbalance were independent risk factors for COVID-19 severity and poor treatment outcome. Women with comorbidities were more likely to have severe disease, while men with comorbidities were more likely to have unfavorable treatment outcomes.
