Objective: To study the main pharmacodynamics of Zengguang Tablets. Methods: Mice were given Zengguang Tablets orally in dosages of 0.75g/kg and 1.50 g/kg. The celiac macrophage phagocytic function and antibody formation of serum hemolysin (IgM) of mice were determined. The mouse blood vacuity model was established by injecting cyclophosphamide intraperitoneally in the dosage of 80mg/kg. Results: Zengguang Tablets could raise the celiac macrophage phagocytic function of mice and promote the antibody formation of serum hemolysin. Conclusion: Zengguang Tablets has the enhancement on organism immune function.

Objective:
To explore the treatment outcome of triangular osteosynthesis (TOS) for the treatment of unilateral Isler type II lumbosacral junction injuries (LSJIs).
Methods:
Data of sixteen patients with unilateral Isler type II LSJIs surgically who were treated in our Hospital from March 2015 to February 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 13 males and 3 females with an average age of 35.5 years (range, 24-61 years). Seven patients were multiple injuries including head, thoracic, musculoskeletal and nerve injuries. According to Isler classification of LSJIs, there were 5 cases of type IIa, 9 of type IIb and 2 of type IIc. All the LSJIs combined with ipsilateral sacral fractures. The sacral fractures were classified by Denis classification with 1 case of zone I, 13 cases of zone II and 2 cases of zone III. According to Tile classification of pelvic fractures, there were 3 cases of type B2, 11 of type C1 and 2 of type C3. There were 3 cases combined with sacral nerve injury among which there were 2 cases of grade II and 1 case of grade III according to Gibbons classification of neurologic deficits. All cases were surgically treated with triangular osteosynthesis. There were 14 cases combined with iliosacral screws fixation in S1 and 2 cases combined with posterior locking plates.
Results:
All patients were followed up for 20.6 months (range, 16-30 months). CT scan was conducted 12 to 24 months after surgery which showed all the sacral fractures were union, and 2 cases achieved bony fusion in L5S1 facets while the other 14 didn’t. According to Majeed’s pelvic injury evaluation, clinical outcomes were rated with excellent in 12 cases, good in 2 cases, fair in 2 cases. The excellent and good rate was 87.5% (14/16) . According to Mears-Velyvis evaluation criterion, there were 14 cases with anatomical reduction and 2 cases with satisfactory reduction. Among the 3 cases with sacral nerve injury, 2 cases were improved from Gibbons grade II to grade I and the other 1 case was improved from Gibbons grade III to grade II, still feeling numbness on the lateral foot. There were no intraoperative complications in all patients such as neurovascular injuries. No incision infection, fat liquefaction and other incision related complications occurred postoperatively. Irritation and pain in iliac spine about prominent implant occurred in 1 case and lumboscaral stiffness in 1 case, in which the symptom relieved and disappeared after implants removal.
Conclusion
Triangular osteosynthesis can provide enough stabilization for Isler type II LSJIs and achieve satisfactory outcomes.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical outcome of Robot-assisted sacroiliac screw fixation in the treatment of fragility fracture of the sacrum in the elderly.Methods:From March 2016 to June 2022, a retrospective analysis was performed on 30 patients with fragility fractures of the sacrum in the elderly who accepted robot-assisted sacroiliac screw to treat fragility fractures of the sacrum in our hospital. There were 12 males and 18 females with average age 71.03±8.25 years (range, 60-89 years). According to the classification of fragility fractures of the pelvis (FFP) in the elderly, there were 22 patients with FFP II, 2 patients with FFP III, and 6 patients with FFP IV. Surgical planning was based on the average CT value of S 1 channel and whether there is a transsacral screw channel. Robot-assisted sacroiliac screw fixation was performed during surgery. The pain of pre-operation and post-operation was evaluated using the visual analogue scale (VAS), the position of sacroiliac screws was evaluated by Gras grading, and the degree of functional recovery after surgery was evaluated using the Majeed function score. Results:All 30 patients successfully completed the operation. The mean operation time was 27.00±6.68 min (range, 18-35 min), the mean fluoroscopy times were 27.13±5.16 (range, 18-34), and the mean blood loss was 30.53±6.61 ml (range, 23-38 ml). All patients were followed up, and the mean follow-up time was 19.03±7.8 months (range, 8-25 months). The VAS was 5(5, 6), 4(3, 4), 3(2, 3), 0(0, 1) points before surgery, 1 week, 2 months and 6 months after surgery, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( H=103.26, P<0.001). After the surgery of 2 months, 6 months and the last follow-up time, the Majeed function scores were 88(83, 90), 91(87, 92), 92(90, 93) points, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( H=19.59, P<0.001). Screw position was evaluated according to Gras grading at 3 days after surgery, including 28 cases of level I, 2 cases of level II, and no screw penetrated the cortical bone or entered the sacral canal or sacral foramen. No vascular or nerve injury occured during the operation. 28 patients with FFS met the fracture healing criteria, and the healing time was 4.54±1.57 months (range, 3-7 months). Two patients had bone nonunion, one of whom underwent anterior ring plate removal due to infection of the pelvic anterior wound, and one month later, pelvic CT scan revealed loosening of the sacroiliac screw; the other one is considered to be related to too early weight bearing. Conclusion:For fragility fractures of the sacrum in elderly, Robot-assisted sacroiliac screw is an effective minimally invasive treatment, with high accuracy of screw placement, effective pain reduction, improved fracture healing rate, and achieve the satisfactory clinical efficacy.
