China Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology 2015;28(9):796-801
OBJECTIVETo compare the effect of three cannulated screws and dynamic hip screw (DHS) combined with antirotation screw in treating patients with comminuted fractures of femoral neck.
METHODSFrom January 2008 to December 2012,67 patients with comminuted fractures of femoral neck were treated with three cannulated screws or DHS combined with antirotation screw. Among them, 36 patients were treated with DHS combined with antirotation screw including 24 males and 12 females with an average of 43.7 years old ranging from 22 to 58 years old; 31 patients were treated with three cannulated screws including 22 males and 9 females with an average of 43.0 years old ranging from 24 to 56 years old. The incision size, operation time, blood loss, blood transfusion rate, postoperative hospital stay, walking time, weight-bearing time, union time, incidence of complication were recorded and compared between two groups, and functional outcomes were evaluated by Harris scoring.
RESULTSAll incision healed at stage I. The differences in operation time, blood loss, blood transfusion rate and postoperative hospital stay between two groups were not significant (P > 0.05). Incision size of DHS group (5.00 ± 0.86) cm was larger than that of cannulated screw group (3.30 ± 0.57) cm (P < 0.01). All patients were followed up more than one year, and the follow-up time showed no significant difference between two groups (P > 0.05). Walking time of DHS group (19.0 ± 3.5) d was less than that of cannulated screw group (37.0 ± 6.3) d (P < 0.01. Partial and full weight-bearing time of DHS group (23.0 ± 7.0) d and (138.0 ± 13.0) d was less than that of cannulated screw group (38.0 ± 5.7) d and (164.0 ± 12.0) d (P < 0.01). Union time of DHS group (151 ± 11) d was less than that of cannulated screw group (162 ± 11) d (P < 0.01). Harris hip score of DHS group (91.0 ± 5.7) was higher than that of cannulated screw group (85.0 ± 12.0) (P < 0.01). No significant differences were found in the incidence of postoperative complications between two groups (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe DHS combined with antirotation screw is superior to three cannulated screws for treatment of comminuted fractures of femoral neck due to earlier weight-bearing, faster fracture healing and better hip function

OBJECTIVETo compare therapeutic effects between arthroscopic medial retinaculum plication and plaster external fixation for the treatment of acute patellar dislocation.
METHODSFrom February 2006 to October 2012,29 patients with acute patellar dislocation were divided into two groups: operation group and non-operation group. The patellar dislocation duration was 2 weeks. In operation group, there were 7 males and 10 females, with an average age of (16.2 ± 6.2) years old, and the patients were treated with arthroscopic medial retinaculum plication. In non-operation group, there were 5 males and 7 females,with an average age of (16.3 ± 5.0) years old,and the patients were treated with plaster external fixation. The Kujala scores, patellar tilt angle measured on CT film, apprehension test and recurrence rate of patellar instability were observed before and 1 year after treatment.
RESULTSIn operation group, the pre-treatment and post-treatment patellar tilt angles had no statistical difference, but the post-treatment Kujala score was lower than that of pre-treatment; while in non-operation group, the post-treatment patellar tilt angle was larger than that of pre-treatment, and the post-treatment Kujala score was lower than that of pre-treatment. At 1 year after treatment, the patellar tilt angle (21.2 ± 5.3) of patients in non-operation group was larger than (13.5 ± 3.5) of operation group, and the Kujala score 73.3 ± 10.5 of patient in non-operation group was lower than 84.1 ± 5.6 of operation group.
CONCLUSIONDuring 1 year after operation, arthroscopic medical retinaculum plication is a more effective treatment for acute patellar dislocation compared with plaster external fixation.

Objective Measurement of ankle brachial index (ABI) is a simple method of assessing lower limb arterial blood supply,while measurement of toe brachial index (TBI)has only been advocated as an alternative.The aim of this study was to obtain information about whether TBI should be taken in type 2 diabetes,even when ABI is normal,and to evaluate the relationship between TBI and atherosclerosis.Methods In a crosssection study,ABI,TBI,and carotid intimal-medial thickness (IMT) were measured on 979 outpatients with type 2 diabetes in Ruijin Hospital.Those with normal ABI (0.9 ≤ABI < 1.3,n = 945) were divided into two groupsnormal TBI group(TBI≥0.6,n=893) and low TBI group(TBI<0.6,n=52),and then the clinical and laboratory data were compared between these two groups.Furthermore,the relationship between TBI and atherosclerosis was investigated.Atherosclerosis was defined as the maximum IMT ≥ 1.1 mm.Results Low ABI and low TBI were detected in 1.3% and 6.6% of the patients,respectively.Comparison of the clinical and laboratory data between the two groups showed that age and HbA1C values were significantly higher in the low TBI group.Furthermore,TBI was inversely associated with IMT(β=-0.217,P<0.01),an indicator for atherosclerosis of the carotid artery.Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that decline of TBI was an independent risk factor of atherosclerosis (OR=1.30,95% CI 1.01-1.69,P<0.05).Conclusion In type 2 diabetes,the decline of TBI is associated with atherosclerosis,indicating the necessity for diabetic patients to detect TBI,even when ABI is within normal range,in order to detect peripheral artery disease in early stage,and reduce the risk for atherosclerosis.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of methylphenidate hydrochloride controlled-release tablets (OROS-MPH) on attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Methods Seventy-two cases of children with ADHD were randomly divided into treatment group (40) and control group (32). Cases of treatment group were given 0.8-1.0 mg??kg-1 of OROS-MPH for three months. Cases of control group were given 1.2-1.4 mg??kg-1 of atomoxetine hydrochloride for three months. After 12 weeks treatment, children were evaluated by Wechsler intelligence test, Integrated visual and auditory continuous performance test (IVA-CPT), the SNAP-Ⅳ effect assessment scale and TESS scale. Results The treatment efficiency was similar in both groups. Attention deficit and hyperactivity in both groups were improved obviously. Wechsler intelligence score was significantly elevated ( P<0. 05), SNAP-Ⅳ score was significantly decreased ( P<0. 05), and IVA-CPT score was increased significantly after treatment ( P<0.05) . The changes of scores on hyperactivity, auditory attention and visual attention were more in OROS-MPH group than those in atomoxetine group(P<0.05). There was loss of appetite in 10 children of OROS-MPH group and in 14 children of atomoxetine group. There was drowsiness in 1 child of OROS-MPH group and in 5 children of atomoxetine group, as well as difficulty to fall asleep in 6 children of OROS-MPH group and 1 child of atomoxetine group (P<0.05). One child developed a transient spasm after 4-month treatment. Conclusion Both of OROS-MPH and atomoxetine hydrochloride can improve learning ability and the symptom of attention deficit and hyperactivity, and they are similarly effective and safe in children with ADHD, but OROS-MPH can work faster.
