Patellofemoral osteoarthritis (PFOA) is a subtype of knee osteoarthritis that has gained popularity in recent years due to its high prevalence and disease burden. The National Clinical Research Center for Geriatric Disorders (Xiangya Hospital) and the Joint Surgery Branch of the Chinese Orthopaedic Association, together with the editorial department of the Chinese Journal of Orthopaedics, convened a panel of orthopaedic experts to come up with guidelines. Subsequently, the Chinese clinical practice guideline for patellofemoral osteoarthritis (2020 edition) was officially released in September 2020. This is of utmost importance in standardizing the clinical diagnosis and treatment of PFOA in China. The present guideline focused on the diagnosis (symptoms, signs and imaging changes), non-surgical interventions (primary treatment and pharmacotherapy) and surgical interventions (repair and reconstruction) of PFOA. The present interpretation aims to address key emerging clinical issues in the diagnosis and treatment of PFOA in China.

Objective:To investigate the psychological status of medical students in clerkship during the outbreak of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), analyze the psychological status characteristics and influencing factors of them, and provide an effective basis for carrying out corresponding mental health education and countermeasures.Methods:The survey was conducted on clerkship medical students in the form of questionnaires, including self-made general status questionnaires, symptom checklist 90 (SCL-90) and social support rate scale (SSRS). Statistical analysis was made on above data, chi-square test was used for rates comparison, t test was for comparison between groups, and Spearman correlation analysis was conducted. Results:The survey obtained 359 valid questionnaires, 18.38% of medical students had different aspects of psychological problems. There was no statistical difference between male and female. For those who knew that there was free psychological counseling for the COVID-19, the levels of three factors, such as compulsive symptoms, anxiety, and hostility, were lower than those of the others who didn't know that [(1.30 ± 0.44) vs. (1.41±0.55), (1.19±0.30) vs. (1.26±0.42), (1.17±0.35) vs. (1.26±0.44), P < 0.05]. SSRS results showed that male students had lower social support availability than female students [(7.46±2.03) vs. (8.10±2.06), P=0.004], and except for somatization, other SCL-90 factors scores of the students were negatively correlated with SSRS scores. Conclusion:During the pandemic, medical students in clerkship have a certain degree of psychological problems, which are negatively related to social support, suggesting that these medical students' mental health can be improved by improving social support.
