Objective:To evaluate the early outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA) and discuss the revisions post THA in the treatment for Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) with severe hip problems.Methods:This retrospective cohort study enrolled 50 patients (64 hips) with a mean age of 52.4±8.7 years, including 25 male patients and 25 female patients (36 left hips and 28 right hips), who were diagnosed as KBD with hip problems and received THA at Arthritis Clinical and Research Centre, Peking University People's Hospital from October 2019 to January 2024. The leg length discrepancy (LLD), femoral offset (FO), abduction angle and anteversion angle were calculated preoperatively and one week post-operation. The postoperative radiological indexes and the functional outcomes in the last follow-up were compared with the preoperative assessment.Results:The surgical duration was 105(80, 120) min and the bleeding amount was 300(200, 400) ml. All the cases were followed up for an average of 37 months (ranging from 21 to 44 months). Significant differences were found on postoperative radiological images, with LLD improving to 0.50±0.78 cm from a preoperative value of -1.36±0.79 cm, and FO increasing to 3.28±1.01 cm from 2.72±0.83 cm ( P<0.05). The mean postoperative abduction angle and anteversion angle were 42.5°±7.7° and 15.1°±5.9°, respectively. A total of 71.8% and 95.3% hips fell within the Lewinnek safe zones of abduction angle and anteversion angle, respectively. In terms of functional outcomes, the average range of motion improved significantly to 185°(173°, 210°) from a preoperative value of 99°(76°, 123°), and the Harris Hip Score increased from 35(26, 43) preoperatively to 70(63, 80) postoperatively ( P<0.05). During the follow-up, there were complications for two cases of femoral stem loosening, one case of periprosthetic femoral fracture, one case of hip dislocation, and one case of acetabular component loosening with hip subluxation. Additionally, seven patients exhibited Trendelenburg gait. A total of five hips required revision surgery due to severe complications, including two cases of femoral stem loosening, one case of periprosthetic femoral fracture, one case of hip dislocation, and one case of acetabular component loosening with subluxation. Conclusions:Patients with KBD demonstrated significant early improvements in both radiological and functional outcomes following THA.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and value of interventional treatment of iatrogenic massive vaginal bleed-ing.Methods Retrospective analysis was performed on 35 patients with postoperative vaginal massive hemorrhage in obstetrics and gynecology who were admitted.Abdominal aorta and bilateral internal iliac arteries angiography and embolization of abnormal vessels were performed under digital subtraction angiography(DS A),and relevant clinical data were recorded and analyzed.Results After interventional treatment,the vaginal bleeding of 33 patients basically stopped within 3 days,and the average interventional operation time was(57.5±17.2)min.The hemoglobin value,hematocrit and blood pressure decreased and the heart rate increased significantly before and after interventional embolization in obstetrics and gynecology,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).There were no sig-nificant changes in hemoglobin value and hematocrit between the completion of interventional embolization and 72 hours after interventional embolization(P＞0.05).The increase of blood pressure and the decrease of heart rate were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Two patients with cesarean section had poor hemostatic effect after interventional embolization,and the bleeding stopped after exploratory laparotomy and hysterectomy.Conclusion Interventional treatment has the advantages of small trauma,simple operation,signifi-cant curative effect,few adverse reactions,and rapid recovery.It plays an important role and clinical value in the diagnosis and treat-ment of iatrogenic vaginal bleeding.

Objective:This study aimed to explore the status of radiological Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) among school-aged children in Chamdo City, Tibet, through a 3-year monitoring survey, providing epidemiological evidence for prevention and control strategies.Methods:The target areas for this study were Luolong, Bianba, and Basu counties in Chamdo City, Tibet Autonomous Region, identified as having the most severe historical cases of KBD. Children aged 7-12 years attending school were enrolled as study subjects. Anteroposterior X-ray films of the right-hand were taken, and radiological diagnoses were made based on the "Diagnosis of Kashin-Beck Disease" criteria (WS/T 207-2010). Two experienced researchers independently reviewed the X-rays, and intra- and inter-group consistency were assessed using weighted Kappa values and percentage agreement. Cross-sectional surveys were conducted in 2017 and 2020 to describe the X-ray detection rates of KBD, and logistic regression analysis was employed to construct a predictive model of risk factors for radiological KBD cases.Results:In 2017, a total of 5,711 children aged 7-12 years in Chamdo City, Tibet, participated in the baseline cross-sectional survey (average age 9.2 years, 48.0% female), with 28 cases of radiological KBD. The age- and gender-standardized prevalence rate was 0.527%. In 2020, 6,771 participants (average age 9.3 years, 49.5% female) underwent a second cross-sectional survey, with 9 cases of radiological KBD and a standardized prevalence rate of 0.134%. Logistic regression analysis indicated that older age [ OR=2.439, 95% CI(1.299, 4.580), P=0.006] and female gender [ OR=8.157, 95% CI(1.016, 65.528), P=0.048] were independent risk factors for radiological KBD cases. Conversely, higher residential altitude, under the premise of Tibet's high altitude, was a protective factor [ OR=0.995, 95% CI(0.990, 0.999), P=0.032). Conclusion:The radiographically positive detection rate of KBD among school-aged children in Chamdo City, Tibet Autonomous Region, is at an extremely low level and showing a declining trend, reaching the historical standard in 2020. Considering the absence of positive signs in affected children, it suggests that local KBD has been effectively eliminated.

This article reports that a patient with bilateral ureterocutaneous stoma after radical cystectomy developed intermittent hematuria 2 years after surgery, and there were no abnormalities on bilateral renal artery and abdominal aortic angiography. After removal of the double J stent, a left common iliac artery ureteral fistula was seen on abdominal aortic angiography, and the patient immediately developed hemorrhagic shock. Abdominal aortic balloon occlusion and left common iliac artery stent grafting were performed in the emergency department. After the stent was deployed and the balloon deflated, no bleeding was observed, and the patient's heart rate and blood pressure stabilized. Follow-up angiography showed complete resolution of the fistula. This condition is rare and dangerous, but interventional treatment can quickly control bleeding, offering minimal surgical trauma and fast recovery.

Objective:To evaluate the early clinical outcomes of 5G remote telesupervised robot assisted total hip arthroplasty in the treatment of Kaschin-Beck disease with hip problems in Tibet through retrospective analysis of the hip surgery cohort.Methods:According to the operation procedure, 55 Kaschin-Beck disease patients (59 hips) undergoing total hip arthroplasty from November 2020 to November 2021 in the Karub District People's Hospital in Qamdo were divided into the conventional THA group (cTHA) and the 5G remote telesupervised robot assisted THA group (rTHA). Two of them underwent cTHA on both hips, while the other two patients underwent cTHA and rTHA separately of each hip, and the rest underwent single hip surgeries. In the cTHA group, there were 30 patients (32 hips), 16 males (17 hips) and 14 females (15 hips), aged 56.56±9.33 years (range, 36-76 years); In the rTHA group, there were 27 patients (27 hips), 10 males and 17 females, aged 55.41±10.90 years (range, 24 to 79 years). Before operation, Harris hip score was recorded and femoral offset (FO) and leg length difference (LLD) were measured via X-ray images. The operation time was collected during the hip surgery and an average network delay of 172.28±36.58 ms and a 1.08% data packet loss ratio is obtained during telesupervision. 24 hours post-operatively, the FO and LLD were both measured via the X-ray images, as well as the inclination and anteversion of the acetabular cup. The Harris scores were collected in the following up. The operation time, FO, LLD, inclination, anteversion and Harris score were compared between the two groups.Results:All cases in both groups were followed up for an average of 9.39±2.43 months (range, 6-19 months). There were no significant differences in pre-operative FO and LLD, preoperative Harris scores or average follow-up time between the two groups. The operation time in rTHA group was 126.41±12.78 min, which is significantly longer than the time 88.81±8.83 min in cTHA group ( t=13.31, P<0.001). After operation, the FO was significantly increased and the LLD was significantly decreased ( P<0.05). The postoperative LLD was 0.63±0.65 cm in the robot group and 1.15±0.71 cm in the conventional group, the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.88, P=0.006). However, there was no significant difference in the FO, inclination and anteversion between the two groups post-operatively ( P>0.05). The Harris scores of both groups were significantly improved compared with that before the operation. Additionally, the Harris score of the two groups was significantly higher than that before surgery, and the postoperative Harris score of the rTHA was 69.00±12.33 higher than that of the cTHA (62.31±11.87), with statistical significance ( t=2.12, P=0.039). The ratio of excellence of Harris score was 19% (5/27) in the rTHA and 9% (3/32) in the cTHA, with no significant difference between groups (χ 2=1.05, P=0.522). Conclusion:Compared to conventional surgery, 5G remote telesupervised robot assisted total hip arthroplasty has more advantages in improving the joint functions in the treatment of hip problems caused by Kashin-beck disease in Tibet Autonomous Region, and facilitates more accurate adjustment of lower limb length difference, even though it consumes more operation time.

【Objective】 To investigate the environmental pollution of blood collection and supply institutions by using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and evaluate its application value. 【Methods】 Colonies of air from blood donation sites, skin puncture sites of blood donors, platelet storage boxes, platelet collection equipment, object surfaces of related experimental consumables and cuff surfaces of staff after disinfection were collected, and typical colonies after cultivation were selected for microbial identification by microbial mass spectrometry and then compared with bacteria results detected in blood components from May 2017 to May 2021. 【Results】 Aseptic growth, the number of colonies ≤4.0 CFU/ dish, and the number of colonies > 4.0 CFU/dish accounted for 21.20%, 62.20% and 16.60%, respectively. The qualified rate from high to low was platelet storage box, bacteria settling in the air of blood donation room after disinfection, platelet collection equipment, skin puncture site of blood donors after disinfection, the surface of platelet consumables and the surface of medical staff's overalls. After disinfection, the blood donors' skin puncture sites were compared with other collection sites, and the t values were 2.0371, 1.508, 2.109, 1.961 and 1.778, respectively, with no significant difference (P>0.05). Thirty cases of bacterial contamination of blood components were detected from May 2017 to May 2021, among which the detection rate of apheresis platelets was the highest, and the t values were 1.731 and 2.272, relative to the contamination frequency of erythrocytes and plasma bacteria (P>0.05), while the t value was 2.875, relative to concentrated platelets, with significant difference (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Bacterial contamination of blood components mostly come from air bacteria settling, blood donors' arms and skin after disinfection, and surfaces of related equipment and materials. Therefore, it is of clinical significance to conduct strict disinfection of working sites, establish disinfection monitoring methods and formulate disinfection hygiene standards in blood stations.

【Objective】 To observe the effect of hydrogen peroxide atomization sterilizer using low concentration hydrogen peroxide disinfectant on the environment and object surface of physical examination area (hereinafter referred to as " physical examination area" ) in blood centers, so as to provide a simple method which is safe, efficient, easy to operate, harmless to human body and has no corrosive effect on equipment. 【Methods】 The physical examination area was disinfected with atomized hydrogen peroxide sterilizer, and the difference of colony number between air and surface before and after disinfection was compared to evaluate the disinfection effect. 【Results】 After disinfection, the hydrogen peroxide residue was detected for 25 times at 5 points, and the results were (0.7~1)ppm, with no statistical difference (P>0.05). 25 tests were carried out at 5 points, and the quartile of the test results was (0~2)CFU/ dish, and the qualified rate was 100%. The test results of bacteria before and after disinfection were statistically significant (P<0.05), which met the requirements of Class Ⅱ environment in Hygienic Standard for Hospital Disinfection(GB15982-2012). After disinfection, the quartile of surface colony detection results of workbench, blood donor seat, screen and door handle were (0~24.1)CFU/cm^2, (1.6~55.4)CFU/cm^2, (0~7.2)CFU/cm² and (0~4.8)CFU/cm^2, with the qualified rate at 80%, 48%, 100% and 100%, respectively, which were in accordance with the requirements of Class Ⅲenvironment in GB15982-2012. The number of colonies after disinfection at the above detection sites decreased significantly compared with that before disinfection (P<0.05). The surface contact plate pressing method and cotton swab smearing method were used to detect the number of colonies on the surface of sterilized work tables and blood donor seats, and the detection rate of the former was higher than that of the latter, with statistical significance (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 After disinfection by hydrogen peroxide atomization sterilizer, the hydrogen peroxide residue met the requirements specified in the manual. The terminal disinfection effect of air in the physical examination area environment can meet the Class Ⅱ environmental requirements of GB15982-2012. However, the number of microorganisms on object surface after terminal disinfection was significantly lower than that before disinfection.

With the increasing number of hip arthroplasty and the extension of implant survival,the risk of periprosthetic femoral fractures are gradually growing.The technical challenge of the surgical management of periprosthetic femoral fractures leads to poor functional outcome,implant survival and patient satisfaction compared to primary hip arthroplasty.The risk factors of periprosthetic femoral fractures involve both of the bone quality of the patient and the surgical techniques of the primary surgery,including age and gender of the patient,osteoporosis,previous surgical history and the type of the components.In order to avoid the occurrence of periprosthetic fractures,precautions including the assessment of the patient status and bone quality as well as the selection of proper prosthesis and surgical procedures should be taken before the primary surgery.During the primary surgery,more attention should be paid to prevent the damage of host bone and make sure the correct placement of the implants.The aseptic loosening should be detected and treated as early as possible in the regular post-operative follow up.The diagnosis of periprosthetic femoral fracture mainly bases on the detailed history,symptoms,signs and serial X-rays after operation.The most extensively used classification system of the periprosthetic femoral fracture is the Vancouver classification.For the treatment of different types of fractures,conservative therapy is recommended for most Vancouver type A fractures.The surgical management is the best choice for most Vancouver type B fractures.Whether the stem revision is necessary or not depends on the stability the component.The treatment of Vancouver type C fractures should be in accordance with the principles of regular femur fractures.However,more attention should be paid to choose proper device according to the existence of the femoral component in the proximal part of the fracture.Through the analysis of the pathogenesis and risk factors of periprosthetic femoral fractures and the discussion of the diagnosis,classification and treatment principles,we expect to provide a standard treatment protocol for the periprosthetic femoral fractures following hip arthroplasty.
