Objective To compare the clinical effects of arthroscopically-assisted reduction and internal fixation(ARIF)combined with enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)and open reduction and internal fixation surgery(ORIF)in the treatment of posterior lateral tibial plateau fractures.Methods Seventy patients with posterior lateral tibial plateau fractures in the Department of Orthopaedics,Xuzhou Central Hospital,from January 2020 to November 2022 were retrospectively selected and divided into ARIF group(with ERAS,n=32)and ORIF group(without ERAS,n=38)according to the treatment methods.All patients were evaluated for fracture type by imaging examination after admission.The operation time,length of hospital stay,early postoperative pain score(evaluated by visual analogue scale[VAS]),knee joint function(evaluated by hospital for special surgery[HSS]scale)at 3 months and thigh circumference difference at 6 months postoperatively were compared between the two groups.Results The operation time in the ARIF group was significantly shorter than that in the ORIF group([67.84±9.89]min vs[85.16±9.18]min,P＜0.001),and the length of hospital stay was significantly shorter in the ARIF group([7.13±1.41]d vs[8.74±1.84]d,P＜0.001).On the third day after operation,the VAS score in the ARIF group was significantly lower than that in the ORIF group([4.00±1.44]vs[5.39±1.24],P＜0.001).ARIF group had better joint function than ORIF group 3 months after operation,and the difference of 10 cm thigh circumference on patella in ARIF group was smaller than that in ORIF group 6 months after operation.Conclusions Compared to ORIF,patients with posterior lateral tibial plateau fractures treated with ARIF combined with ERAS showed faster postoperative recovery,shorter hospital stay,and more precise clinical efficacy.

ObjectiveTo support intelligent clinical decision-making in traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）， this study utilized ontology and knowledge graph construction techniques to achieve the IT application of clinical practice guidelines. MethodBased on the principles of findability， accessibility， interoperability， and reusability （FAIR principles）， this study employed ontology techniques to construct an ontology for TCM clinical practice guidelines and built a knowledge graph using coronary heart disease as an example. Based on the Checklist for Reporting Practice Guidelines in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Recommendation Grading in TCM Clinical Guidelines/Consensus （T/CAS 530—2021），the ontology of TCM clinical practice guidelines was constructed using the seven-step ontology construction method. On this basis，the TCM diagnosis and treatment data from the Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Stable Angina Pectoris in Coronary Heart Disease were stored in Neo4j in the form of triples through knowledge extraction，integration，and storage. ResultThe information in the clinical practice guidelines was divided into three categories： onset and prevention information， diagnosis information， and treatment information， and the TCM clinical practice guideline ontology was constructed. A total of 27 concepts related to TCM clinical diagnosis and treatment and 14 data attributes were obtained， and 12 conceptual relationships including hierarchical relationships and object attributes were established. By taking coronary heart disease as an example and the TCM clinical practice guideline ontology as the model layer， the knowledge map of TCM diagnosis and treatment guidelines for stable angina pectoris in coronary heart disease with 276 nodes and 336 relationships was constructed， realizing the visual display and query of the guideline content. ConclusionThe ontology of TCM clinical practice guidelines and the knowledge graph of stable angina pectoris in coronary heart disease constructed by combining the seven-step ontology construction method and Neo4j graph database technology are efficient and flexible，providing an intelligent TCM diagnosis and treatment scheme and promoting the standardization and objectification of TCM diagnosis and treatment.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of galvanic vestibular stimulation on stroke patients with lateropulsion. MethodsFrom February to October, 2023, 30 stroke patients with lateropulsion in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were divided into control group (n = 15) and experimental group (n = 15) randomly. The control group received routine rehabilitation and sham galvanic vestibular stimulation, and the experimental group received routine rehabilitation and true galvanic vestibular stimulation, for two weeks. They were assessed with Scale for Contraversive Pushing (SCP), subjective visual vertical (SVV), Line Cancellation Test (LCT), Star Cancellation Test (SCT), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Holden Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) and Barthel Index (BI) before and after treatment. ResultsAll the indexes improved in both groups after intervention (|t| > 2.461, Z > 3.000, P < 0.05), except the SVV orientation, SVV certainty and SCT in the control group; while the SCP, SVV certainty, LCT and FAC were better in the experimental group than in the control group (|t| > 2.189, Z = -2.862, P < 0.05), and the differences before and after intervention were better in the experimental group than in the control group (|t| > 2.382, P < 0.05), except LCT. SCP was correlated with SVV orientation, SVV certainty, SCT, BBS, BI and FAC (|r| > 0.381, P < 0.05). ConclusionGalvanic vestibular stimulation can improve the lateropulsion, balance, walking function and activities of daily living in stroke patients, which may be related to improvement for spatial cognitive function, especially vertical perception.

Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics of delayed diagnosis of tuberculosis in children,analyze the risk factors of delayed diagnosis,and support early diagnosis of tuberculosis in children.Methods This is a retrospective analysis based on the clinical data of tuberculosis patients admitted to the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from January 2015 to February 2023.The clinical characteristics of children were analyzed in terms of age group.According to the definition of diagnosis delay,the patients were assigned to delayed group and non-delayed group.Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors for diagnosis delay.Results A total of 82 children with tuberculosis were included(46 cases in delayed diagnosis group and 36 cases in non-delayed diagnosis group).The rate of diagnosis delay was 56.1％.The incidence of acute miliary pulmonary tuberculosis and tuberculous meningitis was significantly higher in children ≤5 years old than that in children＞5 years old(P＜0.05).Diagnosis delay was associated with significantly higher prevalence of chronic fever,cough＞2 weeks,growth retardation and significantly longer duration of empirical antibiotic use compared to the children without diagnosis delay(P＜0.05).Univariate analysis showed that patient origin,contact history,mixed infection,tuberculosis type,molecular biological assay and severe disease were related to the delay of TB diagnosis(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that patient origin[≥3 clinic visits(OR=7.064,95％CI:1.677-29.754)],mixed infection(OR=3.812,95％CI:1.185-12.260),severe disease(OR=3.697,95％CI:1.081-12.646)]were risk factors for diagnosis delay in children.Molecular biological assay(OR=4.642,95％CI:1.318-16.345)was a protective factor.Conclusions The clinical symptoms of tuberculosis in children are atypical.Delayed diagnosis of tuberculosis is common.Multiple clinic visits,mixed infection,and severe disease are the risk factors for diagnosis delay.Tuberculosis should be taken into account for the children with chronic fever,cough and growth retardation who have failed to respond to adequate therapy with third-generation cephalosporin and carbapenems.Molecular biological assay is helpful for early diagnosis of tuberculosis in children with negative sputum smear.
