Objective:To investigate the effect of four different limbs postures on leg loading and stability of stand-to-sit (StandTS) in hemiplegic stroke patients.Method:30 hemiplegic stroke patients and 30 healthy individuals participated in this study.The duration,mean lower limb loading,and sway of the center of gravity (COG) in mediolateral directions (COGX) were measured during StandTS at four postures.Result:There were no significant differences in duration,mean lower limb loading,and COGX between the two arm positions during StandTS in hemiplegic stroke patients (0.05<P<0.1).In hemiplegic stroke patients performing StandTS,there were significant differences in duration,lower limb loading,and COGX between the different foot positions (P<0.05).When hemiplegic stroke patients placed the paretic foot posterior,the weightbearing asymmetry between lower limbs was greatly improved,compared with the asymmetry when the non-paretic foot was posterior (P<0.05).Furthermore,when the non-paretic foot was posterior,the duration to complete the StandTS movement increased (P<0.05),and the postural stability during StandTS improved(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in duration,mean lower limb loading,and COGX among four different limbs positions during StandTS in healthy individuals (0.05<P<0.1).Conclusion:Changing the upper limb position did not affect lower limb loading and postural stability during StandTS in stroke patients.However,changing the foot position significantly influenced the lower limb loading and postural stability during StandTS in hemiplegic stroke patients.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of TiRobot combined with three-dimensional imaging in the minimally invasive surgery for pelvic fractures.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 40 patients with pelvic fracture who had been treated by fixation with S1 and S2 sacroiliac screws at Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Yangjiang People's Hospital from January 2019 to May 2021. They were divided into 2 groups according to their treatment methods. In the TiRobot group of 20 cases subjected to percutaneous sacroiliac screw fixation assisted by TiRobot combined with three-dimensional imaging, there were 13 males and 7 females with an age of (38.2 ± 8.8) years. In the manual group of 20 cases subjected to fixation with manual placement of sacroiliac screws under conventional C-arm fluoroscopy, there were 11 males and 9 females with an age of (37.3 ± 9.2) years. The 2 groups were compared in terms of fluoroscopy time for screw placement, guide needle adjustment, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, visual analogue scale (VAS) 72 hours after operation, postoperative hospital stay, time to ambulation, excellent to good rate of screw placement, complication rate, fracture union time, Majeed score at 6 months after operation, and excellent to good rate of functional evaluation.Results:There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in their preoperative general data, showing they were comparable ( P > 0.05). In the TiRobot group, fluoroscopy time for screw placement [(8.2 ± 2.9) s], guide needle adjustment [(0.4 ± 0.2) times], operation time [(67.4 ± 5.5) min], and intraoperative blood loss [(36.5 ± 8.0) mL] were significantly less than those in the manual group [(40.4 ± 4.5) s, (8.6 ± 0.7) times, (78.4 ± 7.2) min, and (41.6 ± 7.8) mL], postoperative VAS [3.0 (4.0, 5.0) points] was significantly lower than that in the manual group [4.0 (5.0, 6.0) points], the excellent to good rate of screw placement (100%, 40/40) was significantly higher than that in the manual group (85.0%, 34/40), and the complication rate (5.0%,1/20) was significantly lower than that in the manual group (35.0%, 7/20) (all P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in postoperative hospital stay, time to ambulation, fracture union time, Majeed score, or excellent to good rate of functional evaluation ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:In the minimally invasive surgery for pelvic fractures, TiRobot combined with three-dimensional imaging leads to positive outcomes, because it can reduce operation time and radiation exposure, improve accuracy of screw placement, and increase safety.

Objective To analyze the differential protein expression of three negative breast cancer tissue before and after menopause application of iTRAQ technology, to explore the effects of menopause on three negative breast cancer. Methods Selected premenopausal and postmenopausal women with 8 cases in each by negative pathological diagnosis, differential protein analysis on significant function, difference of protein pathway and difference of protein verify were analyzed by the application iTRAQ technology. Results (1﹚Differential protein interactome was relatively centralized premenopausal, and postmenopausal differences of protein was much, and the distribution of the dispersed. (2﹚In pre menopausal cancer tissue protein differences existed in 5 of the significant difference in differences approach; post-menopausal cancer tissue protein existsed in 15 significantly different pathways. (3﹚Tumor adjacent tissues compared with premenopausal had a total of 214 significant difference proteins, postmenopausal had a total of 360 significant differ-ence proteins. The upregul ated proteins in 81 kinds of premenopausal three negative breast cancer tissues, 133 down regμl ated proteins, postmenopausal up-regμl ated protein 157 types, down 203. Conclusion Using iTRAQ technology to found that the expression has a certain particμl arity differences in three negative breast cancer before and after menopause, indicate three negative breast cancer may have different pathogenesis in the different estrogen environment, may be a new target for treatment of TNBC.
