BACKGROUND:Titanium elastic intramedullary nailing for the treatment of significantly displaced midshaft clavicle fractures has the characteristics of minimally invasive and elastic fixation.The displacement of the fracture is closely related to the later function.However,there are few studies on the three-dimensional displacement analysis of the fracture ends before surgery and after intramedullary fixation such as titanium elastic intramedullary nailing.OBJECTIVE:To explore the three-dimensional displacement of fracture ends after midshaft clavicle fracture and fixation with titanium elastic intramedullary nails,and to analyze the risk factors.METHODS:A total of 91 patients with midshaft clavicle fracture(fracture end shortening ≥15 mm)admitted to Wendeng Orthopedic Hospital of Shandong Province from April 2019 to April 2024 were selected,including 57 males and 34 females,aged(51.73±10.21)years old.All patients received closed reduction and internal fixation with titanium elastic intramedullary nail.CT scans of the affected clavicle were performed before and on the first day after surgery.The CT data were imported into Mimics software for modeling.The length of the clavicle,lateral displacement of the fracture end,and rotation of the distal end of the fracture along the X,Y,and Z axes were measured and recorded before and after surgery.Pearson correlation coefficient was used for correlation analysis of various parameters,and generalized linear regression was used to evaluate risk factors.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Preoperatively,the variable that increased the risk of lateral displacement was the number of comminuted bone fragments,the variable that increased the risk of shortening displacement was male patients,and the variable that increased the risk of Z-axis rotation was the left limb.Shortening displacement was significantly positively correlated with lateral displacement(r=0.715,P＜0.001);shortening displacement was significantly positively correlated with X-axis rotation displacement and Y-axis rotation displacement(r=0.265,P=0.028;r=0.303,P=0.011);lateral displacement was significantly positively correlated with Y-axis rotation and Z-axis rotation(r=0.258,P=0.032;r=0.250,P=0.038);X-axis rotation was significantly positively correlated with Y-axis rotation(r=0.382,P=0.001),and Z-axis rotation was significantly positively correlated with Y-axis rotation(r=0.280,P=0.020).(2)Postoperatively:The number of scapula fractures and comminuted bone fragments were variables that increased the risk of postoperative shortening and lateral displacement:Preoperative X-,Y-,and Z-axis rotation displacements were risk variables that increased postoperative X-,Y-,and Z-axis rotation displacements,respectively.Postoperative lateral displacement was significantly positively correlated with postoperative shortening and displacement(r=0.584,P=0.000),and postoperative lateral displacement was also significantly positively correlated with postoperative Y axis rotation and Z axis rotation(r=0.360,P=0.002;r=0.250,P=0.038).Postoperative Y axis rotation was significantly positively correlated with postoperative Z axis rotation(r=0.248,P=0.040).(3)The results showed that the three-dimensional displacement of the clavicle end before and after surgery was affected by many factors,especially the number of comminuted bone fragments,scapula fractures,gender,and original rotation displacement.At the same time,there were complex correlations between various displacements,especially the correlation between shortening displacement and lateral displacement was the strongest.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness of autologous bilateral auricular concha cartilage-modified scaffolds in rhinoplasty.Methods:Retrospectively, 219 patients aged (28.7±5.5) years, 8 males and 211 females, who underwent rhinoplasty at the An Beili Medical Beauty Clinic in Shimen County, Changde City, Hunan Province, from January 2020 to January 2022, were included. Every patient consented to apply modified scaffolds of autologous bilateral auricular concha cartilage for rhinoplasty; 157 received primary rhinoplasty and 62 underwent secondary rhinoplasty repair. To construct the nasal tip morphology, bilateral auricular concha cartilage was excised, symmetrically divided and aligned sutures to form nasal columellar support grafts and anti-tip rotation grafts. Thermoplastic splints and tape were used to fix the dorsum of the nose, and tumescent sponges to fill the nasal cavity. Prophylactic antibiotics were routinely administered after surgery for 48 hours, and depending on how well the wound healed, the stitches were taken out 8 to 10 days later.Results:A local infiltration anesthetic was used throughout the procedure on all 219 patients. The majority of patients had a willow-shaped prosthesis constructed for the dorsum of their noses. A total of 145 patients had silicone prostheses, and 74 patients had expanded polytetrafluoroethylene prostheses. The mean operating duration was (72.92±13.26) minutes. Within 8 to 10 days after surgery, all patients had their sutures taken out, the surgical incisions healed properly, and all 219 patients were satisfied with their nasal appearance in the immediate postoperative period. The nasal tip height was elevated by an average of (4.7±0.5) mm, and the nasal length was extended by an average of (5.7±0.6) mm over the mean follow-up of (14±2) months. Among 219 patients, 96.8% (212/219) of the patients expressed satisfaction with the form of their noses. The postoperative nasal shape, with its naturally elevated nasal dorsum, rounded tip profile, and pronounced tip-defining point, complied with the natural aesthetic criteria. Three patients experienced a chronic nasal infection following surgery, while the remaining four experienced postoperative tip-down rotation.Conclusions:Using bilateral auricular concha cartilage, the tip cartilage modified scaffolding provides a better nasal appearance and tip mobility after rhinoplasty for the patients.

The occurrence of perioperative adverse events (PAEs) significantly affects postoperative recovery of patients. In recent years, more and more studies have found that the start time of surgery is closely related to the occurrence of PAE, especially in terms of hospital stay and cost, intraoperative and postoperative complications, and postoperative mortality. This review aims to summarize the impact of different types of surgeries on PAE starting in the morning or afternoon, and to elucidate the possible mechanisms by which morning or afternoon surgeries affect PAE occurrence from the perspectives of circadian rhythms, human factors, and infrastructure, in order to provide reference for reducing patient PAE and accelerating patient recovery.

Spexin is a new cytokine with a short peptide of 14 amino acids encoded by Ch12orf39, which can be identified by bioinformatics technology.The sequence of Spexin is widely expressed in various organs and is conserved during vertebrate evolution.The physiological effects of Spexin are getting increasing attention in recent years.The studies suggest Spexin plays multiple physiological functions, and the main ligands for biological effects are galanin receptor type 2 and galanin receptor type 3.Spexin palys an important biological role in energy metabolism and homeostasis, cardiovascular function and feeding behavior, and even can affect the regulation of pain and depression relief and reproductive function.This review aims to systemically summarize the Spexin and its related biological functions in metabolic diseases and feeding behavior.

  Objective  To evaluate the clinical and paraclinical features of Chinese patients with anti- LGI1 encephalitis.  Methods  Patients with memory deficits, psychiatric symptoms, seizures or altered level of consciousness, suspicious of encephalitis, at presentation to Peking Union Medical College Hospital were recruited between July 2013 and January 2018, and tested for anti-LGI1 antibodies in their serum and/or cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) samples. Patients with anti-LGI1 antibodies were enrolled. The demographic characteristics, clinical manifestations, laboratory examination results, neuroimaging features, immunotherapy, follow-up practices and outcomes for included patients were registered and analyzed.  Results  The study enrolled 120 patients, of whom 66.7% were male. The median age was 61 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 49-66 years). Seizures(65.0%) were the most common initial symptoms. Most patients developed seizures (95.0%), including faciobrachial dystonic seizures (54.2%), memory deficits (92.5%), and psychiatric symptoms (69.1%). Brain MRI and ¹⁸F-FDG PET / CT showed that the lesions were mainly located in unilateral or bilateral medial temporal lobes, and (or) basal ganglia. Of the patients, 95.0% received intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) or corticosteroids, 47.5% received mycophenolate mofetil as long-term immunotherapy, and no one received second-line immunotherapy. The median follow-up was 34.2 months(IQR: 22.0-45.6 months). 91.2% had a good outcome (modified Rankin Scale score≤2 points). Residual mild memory deficits were present in 47.8% of the patients. Nine deaths were documented. Relapses occurred in 24.8% of the patients in the first year. In total, 24 (20%)cases were young patients(onset age ≤45 years).There were fewer males among the younger patients(37.5% vs. 74.0%, P < 0.01). Besides, there were fewer younger patients with psychiatric symptoms(50.0% vs. 74.0%, P=0.02), hyponatremia(33.3% vs. 68.8%, P < 0.01), and abnormalities on brain ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT(20.8% vs. 47.9%, P=0.02). The relapse-free survival rate was significantly higher in the young patients.  Conclusions  Elderly males were predominant in patients with anti-LGI1 encephalitis. Most patients developed symptoms of limbic encephalitis and/or FDBS during the disease course. Several patients were young adults and lacked typical symptoms. Neuroimaging features were consistent with the involvement of limbic system or basal ganglia. Patients with anti-LGI1 encephalitis respond well to immunotherapy, irrespective of the age.
