Objective To observe the efficacy of long-term treatment with Teriparatide on osteoporotic intertrochanteric fracture in the elderly.Methods T he elderly patients w ith osteoporotic intertrochanteric fracture meeting inclusion and exclusion criteria were recruited. They received proximal femoral nail anti-rotation(PFNA)surgery with the combined intakes of calcium of 600 mg/day and 1-alpha ,25-(OH)2-vitamin D3 analogs of 0.5 μg/day as a basic standard treatment protocol(BSTP).The study subjects included control group(n= 10)who underwent PFNA surgery plus oral calcium and vitamin D supplements without teriparatide (20 μg/d) ,and the observation group who received PFNA surgery plus oral calcium and vitamin D supplements with teriparatide (20 μg/d) , for more than twelve months or over at our department from October 2012 to February 2016. Gender ,age ,socio-demographics and clinical values of the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA )score ,fracture types ,preoperative serum albumin level ,preoperative BM I ,bone mineral density 1 week postoperatively ,serum N-terminal propeptide of type I collagen (PINP) and C-terminal telopeptides of type 1 collagen(β-CTX)1 week postoperatively were matched between the two groups , no statistically significant difference was found(all P>0.05).Levels of PINP and β-CTX 3 ,6 and 12 months postoperatively ,BMD 1 year postoperatively ,fracture healing time and complications were compared between the two groups. The prognosis of 1 case of patient undergoing conservative treatment was observed. Results There was no significant difference between the two groups in serum levels of PINP and β-CTX 1 week postoperatively(P=0.362 and 0.517 ,respectively).Serum level of PINP was significantly increased in observation group at 3 ,6 and 12 months postoperatively versus at 1 week postoperatively(P= 0.008 ,0.001 and 0.004 ,respectively) ,while serum level of PINP had no significant difference in control group at 3 ,6 and 12 months postoperatively versus at 1week postoperatively(P> 0.05).Serum levels of PINP 3 ,6 and 12 months postoperatively were higher in the observation group than in control ( P= 0. 002 ,0. 002 and 0. 000 ,respectively ). In the observation group ,serum β-CTX level reached the peak at 6 months after surgery ,which was higher than that at 1 week after surgery(P=0.041) ,and slowly decreased at 12 months after surgery.In the control group ,β-CTX slowly increased at 3 ,6 and 12 months postoperatively versus at 1 week postoperatively ( P > 0.05 ). There was no significant difference in BMD of lumbar spine and contralateralhipbetweenthetwogroupsat1weekpostoperatively(P=0.440and0.325).At1year postoperatively versus at 1 week postoperatively ,the BMD of lumbar spine and contralateral hip was increased(P=0.039 and 0.009)in the observation group ,while was decreased(P> 0.05)in control group. The fracture healing time was shorter in observation group than in control group (13.6 ± 2.2 weeks vs.17.6 ± 3.4 weeks ,P=0.033).No one had a delayed fracture healing in observation group and 1 patient showed a delayed fracture healing in the control group. There were no complications such as lag screw sliding ,refracture ,pressure ulcer and deep vein thrombosis in both groups. The fracture nonunion was found in the patient undergoing conservative treatment after 20 months of teriparatide treatment. Conclusions The medium-and long-term of teriparatide treatment can significantly promote bone formation ,improve BMD of the lumbar spine and hip ,and shorten fracture healing time in patients with osteoporotic intertrochanteric fracture ,but it is not a substitute for surgical treatment.

Objective:To explore the effects of bariatric metabolic surgery on body composition.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 66 patients with metabolic diseases who were admitted to the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 2013 to December 2014 were collected. There were 42 males and 24 females, aged (40±11)years, with a range from 17 to 63 years. Of the 66 patients, 27 undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and 39 undergoing laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) were allocated into LSG group and LRYGB group, respectively. The body composition of all patients was determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at preoperation and postoperative 6 months. Observation indicators: (1) the changes of anthropometric parameters, glucolipid metabolism, body fat mass percentage (BF%) and the ratio of Android BF% and Gynoid BF% (A/G ratio) from preoperation to postoperative 6 months; (2) the changes of whole and local body composition from preoperation to postoperative 6 months; (3) analysis of the correlation between BF% and anthropometric parameters, glucolipid metabolism. (4) Follow-up. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient or hospitalization examination to detect the changes of body composition at the time of postoperative 6 month. The follow-up time was up to July 2015. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, paired-samples t test was used for intra-group comparison, and independent-samples t test when baseline data were consistency or covariance analysis when baseline data were not consistency was used for inter-group comparison. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M ( P25, P75), and comparison between groups was analyzed using Wilcoxon signed rank test. The correlation test was undertaken with the Pearson bivariate analysis.

Objective:To investigate the effect of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) on weight loss in patients with different degrees of obesity.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 152 patients with obesity who underwent LSG in Affiliated Huaian No.1 People′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from March 2019 to May 2022, including 119 females (78.3%) and 33 males (21.7%), with a mean age of (30.9±7.9) years (ranging from 18 to 58 years). The body mass index (BMI) was 30.0-34.9 kg/m 2, 35.0-39.9 kg/m 2 and ≥40.0 kg/m 2 in Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ objesity groups respectively ( n=38, 57, 57). The body measurements, biochemical indexes, percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) and percentage of total weight loss (%TWL) were collected and analyzed before and after surgery at 1, 3, 6, 12 months. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS 22.0 software. Results:LSG was successfully implemented in 152 patients. Body weight, BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference, waist-to-hip ratio, liver function, blood glucose and lipid parameters all decreased at each time point of postoperative follow-up, while uric acid increased at 1 month and decreased at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery and then gradually decreased. At 12 months after surgery, the body weight was (75.9±17.0) kg ( t=15.14, P<0.001), BMI (26.2±3.7) kg/m 2 ( t=14.44, P<0.001), waist circumference (89.0±10.7) cm ( t=9.20, P<0.001), hip circumference 100.6±7.6 cm ( t=12.67, P<0.001), alanine aminotransferase (18.2±16.6) μ/L ( t=2.83, P=0.018), aspartate aminotransferase (15.2±14.2) μ/L ( t=2.84, P=0.018), fasting plasma glucose (4.6±0.5) mmol/L ( t=2.01, P=0.026), triglyceride 1.1±0.5 mmol/L ( t=3.71, P=0.005) and uric acid 340.2±102.7 μmol/L ( t=4.46, P=0.001), all were lower than those before surgery with statistical significance. At 6 months after surgery, the %EWL in Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ obesity groups was (92.7±35.5) %, (86.1±16.0) % and (67.5±14.0) % respectively, with statistical significance among the 3 groups ( F=5.38, P=0.010). The %TWL was (20.5±7.4) %, (28.5±5.2) % and (28.9±6.1) % in the three groups respectively, and the overall difference was statistically significant ( F=3.50, P=0.043). At 1 year after surgery, there was no significant difference in %EWL and %TWL among the 3 groups. Conclusions:LSG was effective in treating simple obesity, with improvements of body weight, waist circumference, hip circumference, liver function, blood glucose and lipid and uric acid. In the first 6 months after surgery, %EWL in patients with class Ⅰ obesity was higher than that in patients with class Ⅲ obesity, achieving relatively better weight loss. However patients with class Ⅲ obesity also experienced significant weight loss until 1 year after surgery.
