Objective:To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of our self-designed intelligent robot-assisted reduction system for fresh subtrochanteric fractures of the femur.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to include 10 patients with fresh subtrochanteric fracture of the femur who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedic Trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from January 2024 to July 2024. There were 7 males and 3 females with an age of (45.0±14.3) years and an interval from injury to surgery of (7.9±3.7) d. All the patients were treated by minimally invasive reduction which was assisted by our self-designed intelligent robot, and internal fixation with intramedullary nails. The operation duration, intraoperative reduction duration, intraoperative blood loss, and intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency were recorded. The reduction effect was evaluated by calculating the differences between preoperative planning and postoperative CT reconstruction (i.e., the differences in femoral shaft length and in rotation angle). The hip functional recovery was assessed by Harris hip function Scoring.Results:The mean operation time was 200.0 (161.3, 217.5) min, the reduction time (83.0±35.5) min, the intraoperative blood loss (290.0±110.1) mL, and the intraoperative fluoroscopy 18.5 (9.0, 19.3) times. In all patients, the difference in femoral shaft length was (2.4±1.4) mm, and the difference in rotation angle 5.1°±3.0°. All patients were followed up for (8.2±2.0)months. All the fractures got united at the last follow-up. Their Harris hip function score was (83.3±4.1) points.Conclusion:Our self-designed intelligent robot-assisted reduction system is feasible and effective in the surgery of fresh subtrochanteric fracture of the femur, because the robot system can complete the autonomous planning of reduction approaches before surgery and assist fracture reduction under real-time monitoring with three-dimensional images, leading to fine outcomes.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by long treatment course and poor prognosis. The pathogenesis has not been fully elucidated but is mostly related to the non-specific inflammation of the airway and surrounding tissues. T helper 1 (Th1) and T helper 2 (Th2) are generated by CD4+ T cell differentiation, and are in a dynamic equilibrium when the body is in normal state. The balance between pro-inflammatory cytokines and anti-inflammatory cytokines regulated by Th1/Th2 is vital for maintaining the immune homeostasis in respiratory tract. Chronic inflammatory state changes the level of inflammatory cells in the body, and there is immune disorder in T lymphocytes in the onset stage of COPD. Th1 cells are predominantly expressed in the stable stage of COPD, while Th2 cells are predominantly expressed in the acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD). Th1/Th2 immune imbalance aggravates the inflammatory reaction, and thus restoring the immune balance between them and inhibiting the inflammatory reaction are critical for the treatment of COPD. At present, there has been no satisfactory treatment plan for COPD. Chinese medicine has a long history of preventing and treating COPD, with remarkable curative effect and few adverse reactions. A large number of animal experiments and clinical studies on Chinese medicine intervention of Th1/Th2 immune balance in COPD have indicated that Th1/Th2 immune balance is an important potential target for treating COPD by Chinese medicine, which can correct chronic inflammatory state by regulating the immune disorder of the body. It has also been found that Th1/Th2 balance plays an important immunoregulatory role in inflammatory response, but little is known about its specific mechanism in the pathogenesis of COPD. On this basis, this paper summarized and analyzed the biological characteristics of Th1/Th2 and their mechanism in the pathogenesis of COPD, as well as the intervention effect of single Chinese medicine or its effective components and Chinese medicine compound on Th1/Th2 immune balance in COPD. It further explored the pathogenesis of COPD and the potential therapeutic targets of Chinese medicine in interfering with Th1/Th2 immune balance in COPD, providing reference for further study on prevention and treatment of COPD with Chinese medicine.
