Objective To compare the scale of the spinal bones removed by microendoscopic discectomy (MED) and interlaminal fenestration approach discectomy (IFAD),and their postoperative influence on the lumber degeneration in patients with lumber disc herniation.Methods Totally 76 cases of MED and 80 cases of IFAD were enrolled in this study.The scale of the spinal bones resected were compared by measuring the width and height of the bone window,as well as the percentages of the removed superior and inferior articular processes by using X-ray.To compare the efficacy of the two procedures,Nakai criteria was employed. The height and angle of intervertebral space and intervertebral displacement were detected preoperation,and then were followed up after the surgery.Results Both the width and height of the bone window and the percentages of the removed superior and inferior articular processes of the MED group was significantly less than those in the IFAD group (P=0.000);whereas,no marked difference was found in the scale of disc removal between the two group[(1.75?0.58) g vs (1.95?0.77)g,t=-1.825,P=0.070].The outcomes of the two group was similar,the rate of excellent and good outcomes of the MED and IFAD groups were 86.8% and 88.8%, respectively (Z=-0.184,P=0.854).In the MED group,the intervertebral space was reduced by 30%?18%,which were similar to that in the IFAD group 34%?15%(t=-1.246,P=0.215);3 cases of the MED group and 5 of the IFAD group had intervertebral instability after the surgery (x~2=0.425,P=0.515).Conclusions Both MED and IFAD are effective for lumbar disc herniation.However,MED shoud be the first choice for the disease,because the procedure causes less trauma.

Objective To evaluate the impact of different ages, different gender, with or without exercise and different fracture sites on the nutritional status using mini nutritional assessment (MNA-SF) in hospitalized elderly fracture patients. Methods A total of 1 353 hospitalized elderly patients with fracture were included. The MNA-SF investigations were completed within 3 days after admission. The diet, body weight, physical activity, psychological trauma or stress, psychological problems, body mass index (BMI), calf circumference (CC), history of aerobic exercise and the fracture sites were recorded three days after admission. The nutritional status were evaluated including normal nutrition, risk of malnutrition and malnutritional status. The relationships of nutritional status were analyzed between different ages, different gender, with or without exercise, different fracture sites. Results There were significant differences in the incidence of normal nutrition, risk of malnutrition malnutrition and non-normal nutritional status between different ages, different gender, with or without exercise, femoral intertrochanteric fracture and upper limb fracture. There were also significant differences in the incidence of normal nutrition, risk of malnutrition and malnutrition between femoral neck fracture and upper limb fracture. Conclusion There is a higher incidence of non-normal nutritional status in patients older than 80 years, female, with no regular exercise and with femoral intertrochanteric fracture.

Femoral neck fractures in pediatric fractures account for less than 1% which is very rare, and its mechanism is commonly caused by high-energy trauma. If children with femoral neck fracture cannot receive timely and effective treatment, they are at high risk of avascular necrosis of the femoral head (AVN), coxa vara, bone nonunion, premature physeal closure, leg length discrepancy and other complications. Surgical treatment is currently preferred over conservative treatment, which has a higher complication rate. Among them, AVN is one of the most common and the most difficult complications to manage. So far, no effective treatment measures and reliable predictors have been reported, and the related factors affecting the occurrence of AVN have also been controversial. Once femoral head necrosis occurs in children, the prognosis is not ideal due to the lack of appropriate treatment methods. Therefore, this paper reviews the research progress on the related factors of AVN after femoral neck fracture in children based on the literature reports in the past decade.
