Objective To study the treatment of femoral intertrochanteric fractures by reduction without a traction table in a special position and fixation with proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA).Methods From May 2016 to May 2017,34 patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture were treated with PFNA.They were 20 men and 14 women,from 36 to 89 years of age (average,69.9 years).The left side was affected in 15 cases and the right side in 19.By AO classification,there were 10 cases of type AO 31-A1,13 ones of type 31-A2,and 11 ones of type 3 l-A3.Two cases were complicated with other fractures,and 5 with internal system disease,3 of whom had more than 2 concomitant diseases.Preoperative deep venous thrombosis was found in 2 cases.Surgery was performed for them between 2 and 8 days after injury (average,3.7 days).Reduction was performed in a special position without a traction table.The duration of anesthesia,operation time,intraoperative hemorrhage,postoperative complications and hip function by Harris scores were recorded.Results For the 34 patients,the anesthesia time ranged from 57 to 85 min (average,67.5 min),the operation time ranged from 28 to 65 min (average,40.9 min),and the intraoperative hemorrhage from 80 to 150 mL (average,110.6 mL).They received effective follow-up for 6 to 12 months (average,8.4 months).All the fractures healed after 6 to 12 months(average,7.2 months).No failure of internal fixation was observed during follow-ups.By the Harris scores at the final follow-up,the function of the affected hip was rated as excellent in 9 cases,as good in 21 and as fair in 4,giving an excellent to good rate of 88.2％.Conclusion In the treatment of femoral intertrochanteric fractures,reduction without a traction table in a special position and PFNA fixation may reduce anesthesia time,leading to satisfactory clinical outcomes.

Objective:To evaluate the 1-year postoperative efficacy of four bariatric procedures, namely sleeve gastrectomy (SG), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), single anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S), and biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD/DS) for treating super obesity.Methods:In this retrospective observational study, we analyzed the clinical data of 40 patients with super obesity (body mass index [BMI]≥50 kg/m 2) who had undergone bariatric surgery in the China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University from November 2015 to December 2020. The study cohort consisted of 21 men and 19 women of average age 31.7±9.0 years. The preoperative weight and BMI were (159.2±16.9) kg and (53.4±3.0) kg/m 2, respectively. Prior to the surgery, 30 individuals had hypertension, 27 hyperuricemia, 15 type 2 diabetes, 10 abnormally high total cholesterol, 20 abnormally high triglycerides, and 24 abnormally high low-density lipoprotein. We divided the participants into four groups according to the type of operation: SG group ( n=16), RYGB group ( n=9), SADI-S group ( n=9) and BPD/DS group ( n=6). We examined the following factors: weight, BMI, excess weight loss (%), total weight loss (%), and remission of preoperative metabolic diseases (including hypertension, hyperuricemia, type 2 diabetes, and hyperlipidemia) 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery. The variables assessed for hypertension were systolic and diastolic blood pressure; for type 2 diabetes, glycated hemoglobin; and for hyperlipidemia, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and low-density lipoprotein 1-year after the surgery. The safety of surgery was also assessed. Results:All patients successfully completed laparoscopic procedures, none of them requiring conversion to laparotomy. The amount of blood loss during surgery was less than 50 mL. Postoperative hospital stay was 6–16 days. There were no deaths during the perioperative period. However, two postoperative complications occurred in the RYGB group, namely bleeding and anastomotic leakage. No complications were detected in the other groups. At 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery, percentage of excess weight loss was 36.6±11.0, 62.4±15.7, and 68.2±16.0 ( F=21.830, P<0.001) in the SG group; 30.6±6.9, 42.5±5.8, and 50.6±11.1 ( F=13.222, P<0.001) in the RYGB group; 39.7±7.8, 54.6±12.7, and 81.9±12.0 ( F=33.821, P<0.001) in the SADI-S group; and 40.2±4.8, 57.7±11.8, and 82.8±14.9 ( F=21.552, P<0.001), respectively, in the BPD/DS group. The percentage of excess weight loss increased significantly over the 12-month observation period in all groups . Compared with before surgery, hypertension and hyperuricemia in the SG, SADI-S, and BPD-DS groups showed significant improvement after one year (all P<0.05). However, only the SADI-S group exhibited a significant decrease in glycosylated hemoglobin concentrations ( P=0.038). Only the BPD-DS group showed significant decreases in various indicators of hyperlipidemia (all P<0.05). The improvements in obesity-related complication indexes did not reach statistical significance in the RYGB group (all P>0.05). Conclusion:SG, RYGB, SADI-S and BPD/DS are all safe and effective treatments for super obesity. All of these procedures can improve the associated metabolic diseases to a certain extent.

The Letournel-Judet classification system for acetabular fractures is widely used, but there are still some shortcomings, such as incomplete classification and confusion of classification concepts, which cannot effectively guide the treatment. Professor Hou Zhiyong proposed and elaborated an improved acetabular fracture classification system based on the concept of three columns of acetabulum. However, the credibility and repeatability of the classification still lacked validation from clinical data. In this regard, the author included 463 patients with relatively complete imaging data admitted to Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University and Honghui Hospital affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University Medical College in the past five years. Four trauma orthopedists classified the patients according to the modified classification method of acetabular fracture. After two months, the original sequence of imaging data was disrupted and re-classified by the same trauma orthopedists. The consistency of the classification was evaluated by Kappa test and compared with Letournel-Judet classification. The results showed that credibility and repeatability of the modified classification were higher than Letournel-Judet classification, suggesting the feasibility of clinical application.

Objective To evaluate the application value of absorbable hemostat textile as submucosal injection of endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD). Methods Twelve New Zealand rabbits were injected with absorbable hemostat textile solution,glycerol fructose and normal saline. The uplift effect was measured after injection. Simulated ESD was performed in the rabbit stomach and bleeding amount was measured. The injection site was pathologically examined at 30 minutes after the soluble hemostat textile and normal saline were injected. Fifteen pigs were injected with absorbable hemostat textile at two locations of 20-30 cm from the anus,and injected normal saline at another two locations of 20-30 cm from the anus.One site was performed simulated ESD and the other was not. Fifteen simulated ESD were performed in the soluble hemostatic group and the normal saline group, respectively. Operation time was recorded and difference in wound healing was compared between the two groups. Results In the uplift experiment, the absorbable hemostat textile group had higher uplift height(4.3±1.4 mm,4.1±1.9 mm,3.8±0.7 mm, 3.3±0.9 mm, respectively)at 0 min,10 min,20 min,30 min than that of the glycerol fructose group(4.3±2.2 mm,4.1± 2.0 mm,3.6±1.4 mm, 3.2±0.8 mm, respectively, P<0.05), and the glycerol fructose group was higher than that of the normal saline group(3.8±1.6 mm,2.6±1.4 mm,1.9±1.9 mm,1.1±0.7 mm, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in uplift height between the absorbable hemostat textile group and the glycerol fructose group(P>0.05). In the bleeding experiment, the bleeding amount of absorbable hemostat textile group was significantly less than that of the glycerol fructose group(0.36±0.07 mL VS 0.42±0.06 mL, P<0.05);the bleeding amount of glycerol fructose group was significantly lower than that of the normal saline group(0.42±0.06 mL VS 0.55±0.07 mL,P<0.05). There was no obvious tissue necrosis and other adverse complications in the absorbable hemostat textile group and the normal saline group. In simulated ESD experiment,complete resection rate of the absorbable hemostat textile group was higher than that of the normal saline group[86.7%(13/15)VS 46.7%(7/15), P<0.05], and mean operation time of the absorbable hemostat textile group was less than that of the normal saline group(3.2± 0.3 min VS 3.8± 0.5 min, P<0.05). No hemorrhage, perforations or other related adverse events occurred in non-ESD lesions. Conclusion Absorbable hemostat textile is safe and effective as submucosal injection of ESD.
