Conventional surgical management of pelvic fractures entails incision and reduction with internal fixation, a procedure associated with significant bleeding, trauma, and a high surgical risk. The advent of advanced imaging techniques and sophisticated surgical instruments has led to a paradigm shift towards minimally invasive surgery as the prevailing treatment modality for such injuries. The efficacy of reduction is pivotal in determining the clinical prognosis of pelvic fractures, underscoring the importance of enhancing the quality of reduction in the minimally invasive surgery. The advent of 3D printing technology, intelligent orthopaedic surgical robots, mixed reality augmentation technology and high-precision optical localization tracking has catapulted minimally invasive pelvic fracture reduction to the forefront of research in the field of orthopaedics. Studies have demonstrated encouraging outcomes. This paper reviews relevant literature, mainly focusing on the evaluation and measurement, open reduction techniques, minimally invasive closed reduction techniques, and surgical robot assisted reduction techniques in treatment of pelvic fractures, to summarize the technical research progress in minimally invasive closed surgical reduction for pelvic fractures.

Pelvic fractures, the most severe bone trauma, account for approximately 3% of all fractures. As they are caused by high-energy injuries, their rates of mortality and disability are high. Over the past two centuries, the treatment strategies for these fractures have evolved from conservative therapy to open reduction and plate fixation, then to closed reduction and percutaneous screw fixation, and recently to screw fixation assisted by artificial intelligence. In the past 40 years, constant progress has been made in the treatment of pelvic fractures. It is generally acknowledged that a personalized treatment plan should be formulated based on each patient's age, fracture type, comorbidities, functional requirements and other factors when an appropriate treatment mode is chosen. The primary aim of treatment is to accelerate functional recovery, decrease the rate of disability after injury, and improve the quality of daily life of the patient. This paper reviews the treatment history of pelvic fractures, discusses the advantages and disadvantages of current treatment options, and looks ahead to future prospects, aiming to offer valuable references for related clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the current application of blood purification in the treatment of acute poisoning within Jiangsu Province and to evaluate the impact of extracorporeal blood purification on the clinical outcomes of critically poisoned patients.Methods:This multicenter, cross-sectional real-world observational study followed patients presenting with poisoning to the emergency departments of nine hospitals in Jiangsu Province between June 2015 and May 2019. Data were collected on demographic characteristics, vital signs within the first hour of emergency presentation, treatment modalities, length of hospital stay, and survival outcomes. Clinical data from patients who underwent extracorporeal blood purification were compared with those who did not, using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test and Chi-square test.Results:A total of 4 178 poisoning cases were included between June 2015 and May 2019. Among them, 21.7% (908/4 178) received blood purification therapy, while 78.3% (3 270/4 178) did not. Hemoperfusion (90.4%) was the most frequently employed method, followed by continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) (4.4%). In combined blood purification modalities, 4.8% underwent hemoperfusion combined with CRRT, 0.1% received hemoperfusion with plasma exchange, and another 0.1% underwent hemoperfusion combined with both CRRT and plasma exchange. Among patients who underwent blood purification, pesticide poisoning was the most prevalent (76.3%), with the most common toxic agents being paraquat (23.7%), dichlorvos (8.7%), methamidophos (5.2%), omethoate (4.0%), and glyphosate (3.7%). Compared to the non-blood purification group, patients in the blood purification group were more likely to present within the first hour with a low Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score (3-8) (22.6% vs. 9.7%, P <0.05), low mean arterial pressure (8.0% vs. 3.2%, P <0.05), longer hospital stays [5(3,9) days vs. 2(1,4) days, P <0.05] and a higher in-hospital mortality rate (21.1% vs. 5.3%, P <0.05). Follow-up via telephone 28 days after discharge revealed a survival rate of 78.9%, with a mortality rate of 21.1% in the blood purification group. Conclusions:Hemoperfusion is the most commonly utilized blood purification technique for treating poisoning in Jiangsu Province, with pesticides being the primary toxic agents treated. Although the mortality rate is higher in the blood purification group, the intervention may still contribute to improved patient outcomes.

Objective:
: The objective of this study was to assess the relationship between spermine synthase (SMS) expression, tumor occurrence, and prognosis in lower-grade gliomas (LGGs).
Methods:
: A total of 523 LGG patients and 1152 normal brain tissues were included as controls. Mann-Whitney U test was performed to evaluate SMS expression in the LGG group. Functional annotation analysis was conducted to explore the biological processes associated with high SMS expression. Immune cell infiltration analysis was performed to examine the correlation between SMS expression and immune cell types. The association between SMS expression and clinical and pathological features was assessed using Spearman correlation analysis. In vitro experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of overexpressing or downregulating SMS on cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, invasion, and key proteins in the protein kinase B (AKT)/epithelialmesenchymal transition signaling pathway.
Results:
: The study revealed a significant upregulation of SMS expression in LGGs compared to normal brain tissues. High SMS expression was associated with certain clinical and pathological features, including older age, astrocytoma, higher World Health Organization grade, poor disease-specific survival, disease progression, non-1p/19q codeletion, and wild-type isocitrate dehydrogenase. Cox regression analysis identified SMS as a risk factor for overall survival. Bioinformatics analysis showed enrichment of eosinophils, T cells, and macrophages in LGG samples, while proportions of dendritic (DC) cells, plasmacytoid DC (pDC) cells, and CD8+ T cells were decreased.
Conclusion
: High SMS expression in LGGs may promote tumor occurrence through cellular proliferation and modulation of immune cell infiltration. These findings suggest the prognostic value of SMS in predicting clinical outcomes for LGG patients.
