Objective To discuss the clinical features of Traumatic Spinopelvic Dissociation(TSD) and to evaluate the clinical results treated by lumbopelvic fixation by retrospective case study.Methods From July 2008 to December 2012,twelve patients of Traumatic Spinopelvic Dissociations were surgically treated at our department in Tianjin Hospital.There were 8 males and 4 females with a mean age of 34.6±9.2 years(range,18-50 years).The causes of injuries were fall or jump from height (11 patients) and traffic injury (1 patient).All the fractures were closed injuries and associated injuries in different degrees were noted in all the patients.The sacral fractures were classified according to fracture shape,with 4 cases of U shape,6 cases of H shape and 2 cases of Y shape.The transverse part of the sacral fractures were classified by Roy-Camille classification,and there were 6 cases of type Ⅱ and 6 cases of type Ⅲ.All the 12 patients were surgically treated by lumbopelvic fixation of a posterior approach,and 6 patients with significant neurological impairments were performed with sacral decompression via the same approach.The clinical results were evaluated by Majeed functional evaluation and the neurological impairments were evaluated by Gibbons score.Results All the patients were followed up on an average of 15.5±6.3 months (range,12-36 months).The diagnosis of the TSD were missed or delayed in 9 of the 12 patients.There were different neurological impairments in all the 12 patients.All the fractures healed in a mean time of 4.8±2.8 months(range,4-8 months).Clinical outcome was rated excellent in 4 patients,good in 4 patients,fair in 2 patients,and poor in 2 patients,according to the Majeed functional evaluation,and the excellent and good rate was 66.7％ (8/12).The neurological injuries were recovered completely or partially in sensation and motion in 11 of all 12 patients (91.7％).For the neural decompression patients,the neurological injuries were recovered completely or partially in sensation and motion in 5 of all 6 patients (83.3％).At last follow up,the average Gibbons score improved from 3.25 preoperatively to 1.67 postoperatively,with significant difference.Conclusion TSD is a rare high-energy injury pattern.It has a high rate of associated injuries and neurological impairments.The correct diagnosis of the injury pattern is easy to be missed or delayed.Surgical procedure of lumbopelvic fixation via post approach should be considered as the method of choice.Early neural decompression for the patients with obvious indications could be helpful in overall neurological and functional recoveries.

Objective:To summarize the ultrasound features of renal arteriovenous fistula(RAVF)under various ultrasound imaging modes,so as to avoid missed diagnosis of RAVF on initial ultrasound examination.Methods:The clinical data of 6 patients with RAVF,including the ultrasound evidence,the timing of ultrasound diagnosis,the modes of ultrasound diagnosis, and the agreement between ultrasound diagnosis and selective renal arterial angiography,were retrospectively analyzed.Results: 2D ultrasound had 1 case of correct diagnosis,1 case of misdiagnosis and 4 cases of missed diagnosis.Color Doppler and spectral Doppler both had all the 6 cases correctly diagnosed.Ultrasound angiography in 3 cases demonstrated that the contrast agent reached the renal veins earlier than reached the renal parenchyma;large fistula lumen was associated with ischemia of downstream areas.3D ultrasound vividly reflected the structure of fistula lumen volume,and provided us with the profiles of blood signal in fistula at different planes and angles,improving our knowledge of blood flow on the fistula.Conclusion: Ultrasound is the first line screening method for RAVF.Color Doppler plays a decisive role in the diagnosis of RAVF and pulsed spectral Doppler plays a synergetic role and contributes to differential diagnosis.Contrast-enhanced ultrasound may help to discover the abnormality of venous circulation and the ischemic parenehyma area due to shunting.2D ultrasound has a poor diagnostic value and is liable to lead to misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis.

Objective To discuss the clinical features in the diagnosis and treatment of Maisonneuve fracture.Methods Twenty-three patients(16 males and 7 females)with Maisonneuve fractures were surgically treated in our hospital from August 2005 to August 2009.Mean patient age was 35.3 years(range,25-43 years).The causes of injuries were fall down injury(10 patients),sports related injury(8 patients),traffic injury(4 patients),and high falling injury(1 patient).All of the fractures were closed.The surgical procedures include ORIF of the medial malleolus or repair of the medial deltoid ligament and percutaneous screw fixation of the disrupted distal tibiofibular syndesmosis.The ankle function was evaluated by Baird-Jackson criteria.Results In all the 23 patients,9(39.13%)were misdiagnosed at the time of admission or emergency.Twenty-two patients were followed up and the average follow up time was 16.8 months(range,12-25months).No patient complained of pain,tenderness and obvious swelling of the ankle,and range of motion of the injured ankle was similar to that of the contralateral side.At the latest follow up,19 patients had resumed their preinjury activity level.Radiographs of all 22 patients showed union of all the fractures and normal mortises.And there was no traumatic arthritis and breakage of the syndesmotic screws.Baird-Jackson ankle functional score was from 85 to 100.In all the 22 patients,11 were rated as excellent,8 as good,and 3 as fair.The excellent and good rate was 86.4%(19/22).Conclusion Maisonneuve fracture is easy to be misdiagnosed.The lack of knowledge of this fracture and only initially focus on the local condition are the main reasons for the misdiagnosis.Surgical treatments include ORIF of the medial malleolus or repair of the medial deltoid ligament and percutaneous screw fixation of the disrupted distal tibiofibular syndesmosis.

Objective To explore the recent clinical efficacy of closed reduction and cannulated screws internal fixation for the treatment of Ideberg Ⅲ type glenoid fractures.Methods From October 2005 to January 2012,9 cases of Ideberg Ⅲ type gleuoid fractures with closed reduction and cannulated screws internal fixation were studied retrospectively,including 6 males and 3 females,4 cases on the left and 5 on the right,with the average age of 42.2 years (range,28-56).There were three cases combined with clavicle fractures,take S-shaped incision reset for clavicle reconstruction and plate fixation.Three cases combined with acromioclavicular joint dislocation were used the hook plate fixation,and 3 cases with combined acromion fracture were used tension band wire fixation.Suspension structures in the reconstruction of the shoulder glenoid fracture underwent closed reduction and cannulated screw internal fixation.After giving adjustable shoulder abduction brace,rehabilitation exercises were performed under the guidance of doctors.After 1,6 weeks,and 3,6,12 months,X-ray examinations at anteroposterior shoulder view were conducted.By X-ray and clinical examination to determine the fracture healing time,to assess shoulder function with the American Shoulder and Elbow Society (ASES) scoring system,and recorded complications and corresponding outcome.Results Nine cases were obtained from 12 to 46 months,the average (30.8±9.1) months follow-up all fractures healed,with an average healing time of X-rays 12 to 24 weeks,mean (16.8±4.8) weeks.After 12 months surgery,row ASES scores was 82.3 (range,57-95),compared with the preoperative difference was statistically significant.ASES scores were excellent in 5 cases,good in 2,fair in 1 and poor in 1.One patient with traumatic arthritis obtained satisfactory clinical results through oral nonsteroidal drugs and intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate.No screw loosening,fracture fixation failure complications were observed.Conclusion Closed reduction and cannulated screws internal fixation of Ideberg Ⅲ type glenoid fractures recently obtained satisfactory results.

Objective To evaluate the application of 3D printing technology in the treatment of displaced acetabular fractures ( DAF ) complicated with unstable injury to the posterior pelvic ring. Meth-ods A retrospective study was conducted of all the 19 DAF patients complicated with unstable posterior pelvic ring who had been treated from August 2009 to June 2015 in our hospital. They were 12 men and 7 women, aged from 24 to 62 years ( average, 39. 8 years ) . Twelve DAFs were complicated with ipsilateral unstable injury to the posterior pelvic ring, 5 with contralateral unstable injury to the posterior pelvic ring, and 2 with bilateral unstable injury to the posterior pelvic ring. Preoperatively, 3D digital models of the pelvis were reconstructed for the 19 patients using their CT scanning data. Their pelvic models were printed using 3 D printing technology for visual evaluation of their fractures and design of individualized surgical proce-dures. Results With the help of their 3D printing models, the 19 patients obtained successful operations within a mean time of 3. 2 hours. Their intraoperative blood loss averaged 658. 5 mL. They were followed up for an average of 10. 7 months ( range, from 8 to 24 months ) . According to Matta′s criteria for pelvic reduc-tion, 14 cases achieved anatomical reduction, 2 satisfactory reduction and 3 unsatisfactory reduction. Ac-cording to Mears's criteria for reduction of the posterior pelvic ring, 13 cases achieved anatomical reduction, 4 satisfactory reduction and 2 unsatisfactory reduction. The 19 acetabular fractures healed after 9 to 18 weeks ( average, 14. 5 weeks ) . The pelvic fractures healed after 8 to 17 weeks ( average, 13. 5 weeks ) . According to the Merle d'Aubigne-Postel criteria at the last follow-ups, the hip functions were excellent in 7, good in 9, fair in one, and poor in 2 cases. According to the Majeed's functional evaluation, the pelvic functions were excellent in 10 cases, good in 7, fair in one, and poor in one. Complications were incision infection in one, heterotopic ossi-fication in 2, avascular necrosis of the femoral head in one and traumatic arthritis in one. Conclusion In thetreatment of DAF complicated with unstable injury to the posterior pelvic ring, application of 3D printing technology can provide direct visualization of the pelvic and acetabular fractures which facilitate preoperative evaluation and design of individualized surgical protocols, leading to fine outcomes.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of anxiety and depression in elderly patients with metabolic syndrome (MS) and its related factors.Methods A total of 672 subjects aged 60 or over undergoing health check-up in two Nanjing community health service centers from November 2015 to October 2016 were enrolled in the study.The basic information and the history of hyperlipidemia,hypertension and diabetes were collected by questionnaire survey;the results of physical examination and biochemical testing were documented.The prevalence of anxiety and depression were investigated by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS).According to MS diagnostic criteria,the subjects were divided into MS group (n=181) and non-MS group (n=491).The HADS scores of two groups were compared and the influencing factors related to anxiety and depression were analyzed.Results The levels of systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP),body mass index(BMI),levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG),triglyceride (TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were higher and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) was lower in MS group than those in non-MS group (all P<0.05).The prevalence rates of anxiety and depression in MS group (30.9% and 34.8%) were significantly higher than those in non-MS group (20.2% vs.25.1%,χ2=8.655,6.288,P=0.003,0.012).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that obesity (BMI≥28 kg/m2),high FBG (≥7.0 mmol/L),hypertension [blood Pressure≥140/90 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa)] were the independent risk factors for anxiety in MS patients (OR=3.987,2.827,2.375,respectively,all P<0.05);obesity (BMI≥28 kg/m2),high FBG(≥7.0 mmol/L),smoke,high TC (≥5.2 mmol/L),hypertension (≥140/90 mmHg) were the independent risk factors for depression in MS patients (OR=7.718,3.233,2.071,1.932,1.910,respectively,all P<0.05).Conclusion Elderly patients with metabolic syndrome are prone to anxiety and depression,and obesity,high FBG,hypertension and other factors are the risk factors for anxiety and depression.

At present, microbe surface display system mainly involves phage surface display system, bacte- rial surface display system, yeast surface display system and virus surface display system. Baculovirus sur- face display system is a new type of eukaryote surface display system which developed based on deeply un- derstanding of construction and function of virus genome in recent years. Through fused expression with vi- ral capsid or membrane proteins exogenous peptides can be displayed on the surface of the virus and formed hedgehog-shape "fake virus". Baculovirus surface display system was characterized by safeness and high performance, furthermore, this system can complete post-translation processing and modification of protein to enhance the bioactivity of exogenous product. Combined with the author’s experimental work, this paper briefly introduces the mechanism and traits of this system and summarizes the newest research development on its application in the field of monoclonal antibody preparation, new-type vaccine development, genes transduction and genes therapy. It is believed that the system above may show extensive application through further improvement and optimization.
