BACKGROUND:Ankle joint fracture combined with triangular ligament injury is a common type of injury, and is easy to have an impact on the anatomy of the ankle joint, leading to the occurrence of joint instability; the treatment is extremely easy to lead to a variety of complications. For injured triangular ligament, it is controversial whether it is necessary to repair in the clinic. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of a wire anchor for repairing triangular ligament in ankle joint fracture fixation. METHODS:The clinical data of 36 cases of ankle fractures combined with triangular ligament injury, who were treated in the Department of Orthopedics of the Seventh People’s Hospital of Zibo City from May 2013 to May 2014, were retrospectively analyzed. The ankle fractures combined with triangular ligament injury were treated with open reduction plate fixation. The patients were folowed up for 12 months. The recovery of ankle joint function was evaluated with the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle and foot function score. Gravity stress X-ray examination was performed before and after treatment. Space of medial maleolus was measured. Adverse events were observed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The patients were folowed up 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment. AOFAS score of the ankle joint was increased and significantly higher at 12 months than that before surgery (P< 0.05). Gravity stress X-ray examination revealed that the space of medial maleolus of the affected side was smaler at 12 months than that before treatment (P < 0.05). No injuries to nerves and blood vessels were found during surgery, and the incision was healed in the first stage, and no infection was observed. Adverse events such as fixator breakage and loosening were not visible. However, partial function of the ankle joint was limited after repair in triangular ligament injury. Results confirmed that open reduction and internal fixation combined with a wire anchor obtained good effects in the repair of ankle joint fracture with triangular ligament injury.

With high morbidity and mortality,nosocomial bacterial meningitis(NBM)is a kind of serious nosocomial infection.Post-neurosurgical patients are at a high risk of this infection andNBM in-creases hospital stay and medical expense obviously.In this article,we reviewed recent studiesonpathogen-esis,treatment,and research progress of NBM in neurosurgical patients,and presented unresolved ques-tions and research direction in the future.

Objective To explore the accuracy rate of classical anatomical landmark technique ( anterior , central , and posterior ap-proach) for internal jugular vein (IJV) by ultrasound technique.Methods Sixty-four patients with selective operation were included in this study.The anesthetist marked the anterior approach , central approach, and posterior approach for internal jugular vein at 0°(neu-ral), 30°,and 80°of head rotation, respectively.The accuracy of each anatomical landmark were examined by other anesthetist with ul -trasound technique .Results The accuracy rate of anterior approach and central approach were significantly higher than posterior ap -proach at 0°of head rotation, respectively.The accuracy rate of anterior approach was higher than posterior approach at 30°of head rota-tion.The accuracy rate was similar among anterior , central, and posterior approach at 80°of head rotation.Conclusion The accuracy rate was different in different approach of anatomical landmark for internal jugular vein .

It is a challenge in diagnosis of hemophagocytic lymphohistocytosis (HLH).Rapid diagnosis is the key to make decisions in clinical management of HLH.The timely and reliable diagnosis of HLH can be assisted by laboratory tests including nature killer (NK) cell activity, sCD25, hemophagocytosis, ferritin, surface CD107a, and genetic testing.Here is introduced lab assays and evaluate the clinical applications in HLH.The aim is to raise awareness of the values of laboratory evaluations in diagnosing HLH.

Stroke is a type of neurological disease with high morbidity,disability,and mortality.It has become a global public health problem.At present,the stroke burden in countries around the world has shown an upward trend.This article reviews the extent of population health hazards caused by stroke,as well as the evaluation of economic burden of the disease.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD)is a commonly seen digestive disease. So far,there is no golden standard for the diagnosis of GERD. The main diagnosis methods used in clinical practice include gastroscopy,24 h esophageal pH monitoring and proton pump inhibitor test,however,these methods are either invasive or complex in procedure and with low diagnostic accuracy rate. Gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire(GerdQ)possesses multiple advantages such as simple,non-invasive and easily acceptable. This article reviewed the use of GerdQ in diagnosis of GERD.
