Objective To explore the clinical effect of percutaneous osteoplasty with SKy bone expander system in the treatment of calcaneal fracture.Methods 63 feet of 55 patients with calcaneal fractures were involved in this study.According to Sanders fracture classification including 38 feet of Sanders Ⅱ,18 feet of Sanders Ⅲ,7 feet of Sanders Ⅳ.There were 6 to 16 days interval between the injuries and the surgeries.The patients were treated by percutaneous osteoplasty with the SKy bone expander system.The standard of operation was the satisfaction of reduction and Bohler's and Gissane's angles under X-ray.Results All of 63 feet of 55 patients were followed up for average 22 months.According to the criterion of therapeutic effect,the results were as follows:excellent in 30 cases,good in 26 cases,fair in 7cases,and no poor case.The excellent and good rate was 88.9%.Conclusion Percutaneous osteoplasty with SKy bone expander system in the treatment of calcaneal fracture,especially in reduction and fixation of Sanders type Ⅱ and Sanders type Ⅲ,can recover Bohler's and Gissane's angles,significantly shorten the duration of illness,and has fast recovery and can possess satisfactory curative effect,and it is worth popularizing.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the incidence, mortality, clinical characteristics and related factors of transient and persistent acute kidney injury in patients with sepsis in emergency department.Methods:Patients with sepsis ≥ 18 years old hospitalized in the Emergency Department of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from June 2018 to May 2020 were selected as the research objects. According to the renal function injury at admission and the renal function recovery at 48 h after admission, patients with sepsis were divided into three groups: non-S-AKI group, transient S-AKI group, and persistent S-AKI group.Results:A total of 197 patients with sepsis were included, including 95 patients with non-S-AKI, 39 patients with transient S-AKI and 63 patients with persistent S-AKI. The mortality in the persistent S-AKI group was significantly higher than that in the non-S-AKI group (36.5% vs. 17.9%, P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the transient S-AKI group and non-S-AKI group (20.5% vs. 17.9%, P>0.05). Multiple categorical disordered Logistic regression analysis showed that urea was associated with transient S-AKI ( OR=1.440, 95% CI: 1.235-1.680), and age ( OR=1.049, 95% CI: 1.008-1.092), urea ( OR=1.440, 95% CI: 1.277-1.733), and infection site in non-urinary tract ( OR=0.149, 95% CI: 0.050-0.448) were associated with persistent S-AKI. Conclusions:The incidence of persistent S-AKI is higher than that of transient S-AKI. Persistent S-AKI is related to the prognosis of patients with sepsis, and the mortality rate is higher, while transient S-AKI has no significant relationship. The urea of patients with S-AKI would increase significantly, and advanced age and urinary tract infection are related factors for the occurrence of persistent S-AKI. For patients with sepsis with such factors, attention should be paid to early protection of renal function to prevent persistent S-AKI.
