Objective To retrospectively review long?term results of developmental dislocation of the hip patients treated with open reduction and Salter pelvic osteotomy, and to analyze the potential risk factors. Methods Sixty?eight developmental dislocation of the hip cases (81 hips) were treated with open reduction and Salter pelvic osteotomy from September 1992 to Octo?ber 2002, 45 cases (52 hips) were followed up to skeletal maturity. None had undergone other treatment before the key surgery. Some cases received skeleton traction before surgery. The radiographic and functional results were assessed at last follow?up. The possible relevant factors for unsatisfactory outcome were analyzed. The correlation between type ⅡAVN and the coverage rate of the femoral head were evaluated. Results The mean age at surgery was 2.5 years (ranged from 1.4 to 5.3 years). At last follow?up, 44 hips (84.6%) had excellent or good functional results. 23 hips (44.2%) had avascular necrosis of varying severity, of which 16 hips were typeⅡ. There was significant relevance between the AVN severity and the Severin classification result (P=0.018). Theover correctionhips, that were overcorrected during surgery, were more likely to get severe type AVN ( P=0.037). There was no correlation between TypeⅡAVN with uncoverage according to CE angle and Reimers index (P=0.457, 0.308 respectively). Con?clusion 1) Satisfactory functional and radiographic results could be expected in developmental dislocation of the hip cases with?out AVN;2) High risk of AVN existed in the late diagnosised hips that underwent open reduction and Salter pelvic osteotomy, typeⅡwas the most common type;3) TypeⅡAVN was not a predictor for progressive femoral head coverage deficiency;4)Over cor?rectionin Salter pelvic osteotomy was related with severe type AVN which should be avoided.

Objective To compare the early treatment results of Pavlik harness and closed reduction plus spica cast?ing in treating developmental dislocation of the hips (DDH). Methods The patients with GrafⅢ/Ⅳtype DDH diagnosed by ul?trasound in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively from January 2009 to December 2013. The subjects with intact clinical and radiologic data and more than 2 years follow?up were included. The present study included 257 patients (298 hips), 31 male and 226 female, with the average age of 74.1±39.2 d (from 30 to 159 d). Pavlik harness underwent in 190, while 67 cases were treated with closed reduction plus spica casting. Acetabular index (AI), Wiberg OE angle (point O was the middle point of proximal me?taphyseal border) and Smith instability index (SI, SI?c:the lateral displacement index, SI?h:the vertical displacement index) on the pelvic X?ray film at 2-3 years of age after successful early treatment were recorded. Femoral head avascular necrosis (AVN) was diagnosed according to the Salter criteria. Results The success rate of reduction of closed reduction was significantly higher than Pavlik harness (97.5% vs. 69.9%, χ2=0.353, P=0.000). There was no significant difference in the incidence of AVN be?tween the closed reduction and Pavlik harness (6.6% vs. 4.6%, χ2=0.106, P=0.745). For GrafⅢ type DDH, the success rate of reduction of Pavlik harness and closed reduction were 80.7% and 98.4% respectively (χ2=11.248, P=0.001), while the Pavlik harness group had significantly worse results of AI, OE and SI?c at the age of 2-3 years (Pavlik harness: 22.9°±3.7°, 16.5°± 6.3° and 0.74 ± 0.06; closed reduction: 21.4° ± 3.4° , 18.9° ± 3.6° and 0.72 ± 0.03; P<0.05). For GrafⅣ type DDH, the success rate of reduction of Pavlik harness was much less than closed reduction (25.6% vs. 94.4%, χ2=24.231, P=0.001), with signifi?cantly worse results of OE at the age of 2-3 years (16.0°±4.1° vs. 18.6°±4.5°, t=-2.141, P=0.038). Conclusion Pavlik har?ness has limitations in treating GrafⅢ/Ⅳtype DDH, with lower success rate of reduction for GrafⅣtype DDH. Closed reduction plus spica casting has better clinical results than Pavlik harness in success rate of reduction and subsequent hip development with? out the additional risk of AVN.

Objective:Course of evolution observed relatively early Perthes disease in children surgically treated and conservative, explore the significance of early surgical treatment of Perthes disease.Methods:From January 1997 to December 2017, 632 children with Perthes disease were admitted. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 67 children were included in this study. Surgical group: 35 cases, 32 males and 3 females, age ranged from 7.0 to 11.8 years, with an average 8.3±1.0 years old, 21 cases on the left side and 14 cases on the right side. Conservative group: 32 cases, 24 males and 8 females, age ranged from 7.1 to 12.0 years old, with an average of 8.4±1.4 years old, 22 cases on the left side and 10 cases on the right side. The pelvic orthosis and frog position were taken every 3 months, and the evolution of Perthes disease was evaluated by referring to the modified Waldenstr?m staging. In the series of observations, no modified Waldenstr?m IIb stage was found to skip the fragmentation stage. After the healing period, the pelvic orthosis and frog position were evaluated according to the Stulburg classification results, and the ratio of the width of the metaphyseal end of the affected side to the contralateral side and the height of the femoral head epiphysis were measured.Results:The time required to enter stage IIIa, surgical group: range from 0.1 to 1.5 years, with an average of 0.58±0.33 years, conservative group: range from 0.4 to 1.8 years, with an average of 0.96±0.30 years, it takes both to enter the repair phase The time difference was statistically significant ( t=5.259, P<0.05); children whose disease course skipped the fragmentation stage, surgical group: 11 cases (31%), conservative group: 5 cases (16%), the difference is statistically significant ( χ2=22.626, P<0.05). The ratio of the affected side to the uninfected side of the metaphysis: surgical group: range 101%-123%, with an average of 108.0%±6.0%. Conservative group: range 101%-148%, with an average of 115.8%±11.2%. The difference in the ratio between the affected side and the healthy side of the metaphysis was statistically significant ( t=3.450, P<0.05). The ratio of the affected side to the healthy side of the height of the femoral head epiphysis: surgical group: range 61%-96%, with an average of 82.5%±8.2%. Conservative group: range 33%-92%, with an average of 74.7%±1.3%. There was a statistically significant difference in the ratio of the height of the femoral head epiphysis between the affected side and the healthy side ( t=2.921, P<0.05). Stulberg classification, surgical group: Type I hip joints 29 hips, Type II hip joints 6 hips, Type III hips 0 hips; conservative group: Type I hips 16 hips, Type II hips 10 hips, Type III hips 6 hips. There was a statistically significant difference in the Stulberg classification after the two entered stage IV ( Z=3.386, P<0.05). Conclusion:Early surgery changed the natural evolution of Perthes disease. Early surgical treatment shortens the fragmentation period of Perthes disease, so that it enters the repair phase ear-lier, and has the opportunity to skip the late fragmentation period and change its natural course. After healing, the morphological change of the proximal femur is closer to normal.

Objective:
To analyze physical fitness of students aged 6-22 years old from seven ethnic groups in Yunnan Province, and to provide reference for physical fitness intervention measures.
Methods:
The nationality, gender, grade, body shape, vital capacity, exercise quality of students were derived from the 2019 Yunnan Student Physical Health Survey Database. Comprehensive physical fitness score was calculated according to the National Student Physical Fitness Standards(revised in 2014). t test, ANOVA, and χ 2 test were used to analyze physical fitness score and level among students with different ethnic groups, gender, and school stages.
Results:
The average comprehensive score of physical fitness among students from 7 ethnic groups in Yunnan Province was (70.02±9.69), with the pass rate being 88.91%. The proportion of excellent was 0.93%, good was 17.90%, pass 70.09 %, and failed was 11.09%. Physical fitness score was highest in BMI (94.99 points), followed by 50 meter running (74.13 points), sitting forward bend (72.63 points), endurance running (70.43 points), standing long jump (67.77 points), sit ups ( 65.71 points) , 1 minute skipping rope (65.25 points), vital capacity (62.97 points), pull up (29.04 points). Physical fitness score and pass rate and evaluation level varied significantly by ethnicity and school stage( F =293.53,452.85, χ 2/ χ 2 trend =466.65, 412.57 ; 1 553.22 ,1 045.36, P <0.01).
Conclusion
The excellent rate of physical fitness among students in Yunnan Province is relatively low. Physical fitness promotion requires specific guidance and training based on ethnicity and school stage.
