BACKGROUND:Currently, the mechanism by which calcium phosphate ceramics induces osteogenesis is not fuly understood, and many scholars have tried to expound the mechanism from the perspective of the structural properties. OBJECTIVE:To review how the structural properties of calcium phosphate ceramics affect their osteoinductive activity. METHODS: The PubMed database and Google academic database (1997-01/2015-03) were searched to retrieve the related articles about the structural properties of calcium phosphate ceramics affecting their osteoinductive activity. After the articles with outdated reviews or repetitive contents were ruled out, 60 articles were suitable for further analysis and review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The structural properties of calcium phosphate ceramics are displayed by macrostructure, such as macropores, holes, pipes and space between particles, and microstructure, such as micropore, particle size, surface roughness, specific surface area. Each parameter of the structural properties affects the bioactivities of calcium phosphate ceramics in some way, which renders their abilities of inducing osteogenesis to arise from nothing or change from weakly to strongly. Apart from structure design, physical and chemical properties of calcium phosphate ceramics wil also affect its biological activityin vivo. Therefore, the physicochemical properties of calcium phosphate ceramics should be considered in the structure design in order to achieve an optimal osteoinductive activity.

Objective To compare the short-term effects of myocapsular flap repair through minimal posterior approach in Hip arthroplasty with traditional posterior approach in hip arthroplasty in elderly femoral neck fractures. Methods From August 2007 to may 2009, a total of 126 femoral neck fracture patients were randomly divided into two groups, with 63 patients treated with myocapsular flap repair through minimal posterior approach (the modified group), and 63 patients treated with traditional posterior approach (the traditional group). Fifty-eight patients underwent the first-ever total hip replacement and 68 patients underwent artificial double-acting femoral head replacement. Eighty-four cases were inserted with cemented implants and 42 cases with uncemented. Data of incision length, operation time, blood loss volume, drainage amount, blood transfusion volumes were recorded separately. Postoperative complications related to the surgery and hip joint function were also documented. Function of hip joint was scored with Harris scale. All data were statistically analyzed. Results Five patients died within 1 year of surgery, and 4 patients dropped out. All the remained 117 patients were followed up for 12 - 24 months. There were no significant difference in age, type of fracture and artificial the incision length in the modified group was significantly shorter than that in the traditional group([ 10. 5 ± 2. 4 ]cm vs [ 17. 2 ± 3.6 ] cm, t = 3. 012, P = 0. 004). The average operating time was significantly shorter in the modified group compared to the traditional group (t = 2. 455, P = 0. 038). Blood loss, drainage amount, blood transfusion volumes in the modified group were less than those in the traditional group( t = 3.211,2. 986 and 3. 352 ,Ps < 0. 01, respectively). Conclusion Myocapsular flap repair through minimal posterior approach in Hip arthroplasty is a reasonable, mini invasive technique for hip replacement in older with a less blood loss and shorter operating time.fractures

BACKGROUND:Bone cement has certain toxic effects on the human body. The probability of renovation is high after bone cement total hip arthroplasty. It is reported that the long-term effect of cementless total hip arthroplasty is apparently better than bone cement total hip arthroplasty, and can be renovated conveniently. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical effect of cementless total hip arthroplasty on hip joint disease, and to compare the difference between unilateral replacement and bilateral replacement. METHODS: Clinical and folow-up data of 233 patients (280 hips), who were treated with cementless total hip arthroplasty in the Department of Orthopedics, Wuzhou Worker’s Hospital, Seventh Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from July 2007 to December 2013, were retrospectively analyzed. According to the replacement program, they were divided into unilateral replacement group (n=186) and bilateral replacement group (n=47). Harris score of hip joint, visual analog scale score of thigh pain, the excelent and good rate of hip joint during final folow-up and complications were compared between the two groups before replacement, at 6, 12 and 24 months after replacement. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:No significant difference in Harris scores was detected before replacement, at 6, 12 and 24 months after replacement (P > 0.05). Harris score was significantly higher at 6, 12 and 24 months after replacement compared with that before replacement in both groups (P < 0.05). No significant difference in the excelent and good rate was detected in the unilateral replacement group (87%) and the bilateral replacement group (86%) (P > 0.05). No significant difference in the visual analog scale score was seen before replacement, at 6, 12 and 24 months after replacement (P > 0.05). Visual analog scale scores were significantly lower at 6, 12 and 24 months after replacement than that before replacement in the two groups (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications after replacement in patients of both groups (P > 0.05). These findings confirm that the effects of cementless total hip arthroplasty for hip joint disease are evident, can effectively restore hip joint function. No significant difference was detected between unilateral replacement and bilateral replacement. Strict replacement operation and matching of prosthesis and medulary cavity can effectively reduce thigh pain after replacement.

BACKGROUND:The majority of studies focus on the lesions of spinal cord injury, while little evidence is available on the change of morphology and structure of distal nerve, muscle and motor endplates fol owing spinal cord injury.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the time window change of the morphology of motor neurons and skeletal muscles caudal to the lesion after spinal cord injury in rats.
METHODS:Fifty healthy adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups:control group (n=5;without treatment), sham operation group (n=10), and spinal cord injury group (n=35). The sham operated rats only received laminectomy. In the spinal cord injury group, rats were subject to complete T 10 spinal cord injury by total laminectomy and cord transverse resection. Then the morphological change including sciatic nerve, motor endplate and median gastrocnemius was observed for each group at 1, 2, 4, 12, 24 weeks after injury.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The myelin sheath layers of sciatic nerve were separated partial y at 4 weeks in rats with spinal cord injury, the myelin sheaths were fragmented with the regeneration of thin-myelinated and unmyelinated axons at 12 weeks. There was a decrease in myelinated axons and an increase in thin-myelinated and unmyelinated axons at 24 weeks. (2) The synaptic gutters of motor endplate, the presynaptic and postsynaptic membrane and synaptic space were distinct at 4 weeks in rats with spinal cord injury, the degenerated motor endplates coexsisted with the intact ones at 12 weeks. The motor endplate disappeared at 24 weeks. (3) There was a slight decrease in muscle cross-sectional area at 2 weeks in rats with spinal cord injury, but no structural change was found, the membrane of myocytes was partial y weakened at 4 weeks, the border of myocytes was obscure with hyperplasia of connective tissue at 12 weeks, and myocytes gathered and in fusion at 24 weeks. As natural history of completely transected spinal cord injury in rats, there were significant changes in morphology of peripheral nerve, motor endplate and skeletal muscles caudal to the lesion at 12 weeks, and the changes were destructive at 24 weeks.

Objective:To identify the risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after thoracoscopic lung resection and evaluate the predictive value for the development of PPCs.Methods:The perioperative data of patients, aged≥18 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical statusⅠ-Ⅲ, were obtained through the electronic medical record system.The blood routine within 24 h after surgery was recorded, and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) was calculated.According to the development of PPCs, the patients were divided into non-PPCs group and PPCs group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the variables of which P values were less than 0.05 to identify the risk factors for PPCs, and the receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of risk factors. Results:A total of 699 patients were enrolled in this study, including 620 patients in non-PPCs group and 79 patients in PPCs group.The results of logistic regression analysis found that body mass index ≥25 kg/m 2, ASA physical status Ⅲ, lung segmental resection, resection of lobes or above, multi-port thoracoscopic surgery and increased postoperative SII were the risk factors for PPCs ( P<0.05 or 0.01). The AUC (95% confidence interval) of postoperative SII in predicting PPCs was 0.636 (0.599-0.671) ( P<0.05), the cut-off value of SII in predicting PPCs was set at 1 052.3, and the sensitivity and specificity were 68.4% and 57.3%, respectively. Conclusions:Body mass index ≥25 kg/m 2, ASA physical status Ⅲ, lung segmental resection, resection of lobes or above, multi-port thoracoscopic surgery and increased postoperative SII are the risk factors for PPCs.Postoperative SII can predict the occurrence of PPCs to a certain extent in the patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung resection.

Objective:To compare the clinical effects of the three criteria for postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs).Methods:The clinical data of patients underwent thoracoscopic lung resection between January 2021 and July 2021 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.PPCs were assessed using the Melbourne Group Scale (MGS), European Perioperative Clinical Outcome (EPCO) and Standardized Endpoints for Perioperative Medicine (StEP) criteria.The patients were divided into PPC group and non-PPC group according to the above criteria.The diagnostic rates of PPCs of the three criteria were recorded.Cohen′s weighted kappa coefficient was used to evaluate the agreement between the three criteria.Logistic regression method was used to analyze the association between PPCs diagnosed by different criteria and risk of adverse prognostic events developed.Results:A total of 397 patients who underwent thoracoscopic lung surgery were included in this study.The rate of PPCs diagnosed by MGS criterion was significantly lower than those by EPCO and StEP criteria ( P<0.001), and the rate of PPCs diagnosed by EPCO criterion was significantly higher than those by StEP criterion ( P<0.001). The diagnostic agreement between EPCO criterion and StEP criterion was good ( κ=0.624, P<0.001), while the diagnostic agreement between EPCO criterion, StEP criterion and MGS criterion was poor ( κ=0.101, P<0.001; κ=0.210, P<0.001). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that PPCs diagnosed by EPCO and StEP criteria increased the risk of adverse prognostic events developed ( P<0.001). Conclusions:The EPCO and StEP criteria are superior to MGS criterion with regard to the diagnostic and prognostic value for pulmonary complications following thoracoscopic lung resection, and the EPCO criterion had a higher sensitivity.
