There are many methods for internal and external fixation of limbs fractures,such as plaster,splint,and traction.But the disadvantages such as destroyed local blood supply,unreliable fixation,inappropriate dynamic and static combination,postoperative nursing,delayed functional recovery and complications limit their application.Multifunctional external fixation apparatus has been used to treat limbs fractures.It avoids to dissect surrounding tissues and does not damage blood supply out of medullary cavity,which benefits wound treatment,early functional exercise,prevents joint adherence,improves cure rate,reduces complications and avoids second surgery.Moreover,this method is an effective fixation,saves treatment time and prevents adverse results due to treatment for other wounds.In addition.it can also be used to treat bone nonunion,infective fracture,bone defect and other fracture complications.

A device for promoting normal locomotor activity recuperation was made, which was composed by frame, elastic bolt and normal gait mark carpet. The device has the effects of weight relieving, abnormal gait preventing, and safeguards providing. The patient could do gait training by he/her self or assistant self training under the weight reducing and protecting of the device in order to improve the walking ability and the normal gait formation. It is effective for preventing drop foot and leg adduction, and also helpful for the recovery of normal gait ability and the prevention of abnormal gait formation. It is applicable for the patient who can not be trained with ordinary weight relief walking training, such as severe cerebral palsy and severe spasmodic lower extremity and foot drop after brain injury. The results demonstrated that the device is effective in protecting, correcting, preventing abnormal gait as well as forming normal gait.

Objective:To develop a predictive model for intrapartum fever related to chorioamnionitis in parturients undergoing epidural labor analgesia.Methods:This was a retrospective study. The parturients with intrapartum fever (axillary temperature ≥38 ℃) who received epidural labor analgesia from January 2020 to December 2022 in Sichuan Maternal and Child Health Hospital were selected as model group, and parturients with intrapartum fever who received epidural labor analgesia from January to October 2023 in Sichuan Maternal and Child Health Hospital were selected as validation group. The parturients in model group were divided into histological chorioamnionitis stage ≥Ⅱ group (HCA≥Ⅱ group) and histological chorioamnionitis stage <Ⅱ group (HCA<Ⅱ group) according to the results of placental histopathological examination. Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the independent risk factors for intrapartum fever related to chorioamnionitis in parturients, and then a nomogram model was established. The discrimination of the model was verified by the area under the the receiver operating characteristic curve. The consistency of the model was verified by the calibration curve, and the clinical effectiveness of the model was determined by the decision curve. The validation dataset was used to further evaluate the model.Results:A total of 308 parturients were finally included in model group and 99 parturients in validation group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the gestational age, meconium-stained amniotic fluid, c-reactive protein concentration and maximum body temperature were independent risk factors for intrapartum fever related to chorioamnionitis in parturients undergoing epidural labor analgesia ( P<0.05). Based on this, a nomogram risk prediction model was developed. The area under the curve (95% confidence interval) was 0.844 (0.744-0.944) in model group and 0.812 (0.674-0.950) in validation group. The calibration curve showed that the prediction probability of the model had good consistency with the actual probability of diagnosis. The decision curve showed that the threshold probability of the prediction model in model group and validation group was 10%-98% and 10%-78%, respectively. Conclusions:A nomogram prediction model for intrapartum fever related to chorioamnionitis is successfully established based on the gestational age, c-reactive protein concentration, meconium-stained amniotic fluid and maximum body temperature in parturients undergoing epidural labor analgesia. The model has good predictive performance and clinical value.

Objective:To assess the safety and efficacy of Anthocyanins for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.Methods:From November 2018 to December 2020, a multicenter, double-blind, randomized controlled clinical study was conducted in 6 hospitals.The regular medication for the two groups was memantine, with the addition of a combination preparation containing Anthocyanins for the experimental group and a placebo for the control group.The Mini-Mental State Scale(MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale(MoCA), Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale(ADAS-cog), Activities of Daily Living Scale(ADCS-ADL)and Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD)were used for assessment at the beginning.After 16 weeks of treatment, MMSE, MoCA, ADCS-ADL, ADAS-cog and the Clinician's Interview-Based Impression of Change Plus Caregiver Input(CIBIC-Plus)Scale were conducted and adverse events were recorded.Results:A total of 66 patients were enrolled, with 33 in the control group and 33 in the experimental group.There were no significant differences in cognitive function scores between the two groups before enrollment.Differences in MMSE scores, MOCA scores and ADAS-cog scores before and after treatment between the control group and the experimental group were 1.9±2.4 vs.3.4±2.0( t=2.62, P=0.011), 1.8±1.9 vs.2.9±1.4( t=2.45, P=0.018)and 3.0±2.3 vs.5.3±4.6( t=2.45, P=0.019), respectively.The differences were statistically significant.Instrumental activities of daily living(IADL)scores before and after treatment in the control group were 21.6±5.7 vs.22.6±6.2( t= 2.09, P= 0.046), and those in the experimental group were 22.7±5.4 vs.23.4±5.4( t= 2.45, P= 0.021). The differences between the two groups before and after treatment were statistically significant. Conclusions:Treatment with Anthocyanins can delay the decline of cognitive function and activities of daily living ability in patients with Alzheimer's disease.Anthocyanins may be a promising therapeutic drug for Alzheimer's disease in the future.

Objective: To explore the association between the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of rs175048 in ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) gene and lung cancer susceptibility in Han population. Methods: A total of 225 cases of blood samples from lung cancer patients treated in Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Hengyang City and the Affiliated First Hospital of Nanhua University from October 2015 to August 2016 were collected as case group, and 128 cases of blood samples from healthy people were collected as the control. The polymorphisms of ATM rs175048 of above mentioned participants were detected by using the SNP sensitive On/Off Switch technique. The genotypes and allele frequencies were analyzed to compare the distribution difference between case group and control group as well as its association to the clinical features of lung cancer. Results: The genotype frequencies of AA, AT and TT of ATM rs175048 were 24.9%, 52.9%, 22.2% in case group and 42.2%, 42.2%, 15.6% in control group, respectively (all P< 0.01). Moreover, the frequencies of alleles A and T were 51.0%, 49.0% in case group, and 63.0%, 37.0% in control group (all P<0.01). Genotype TT might increase while genotype AT might decrease the risk of lung cancer. rs175048 SNP was significantly correlated with smoking, age, sex and family history (all P<0.05). Conclusion: rs175048 SNPis significantly associated with lung cancer, and TT genotype may increase the risk of lung cancer.
