ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and radiographic outcomes of manipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation in the treatment of distal radius fractures. MethodsThe clinical data of 1051 patients with distal radius fractures were retrospectively collected from five hospitals included in the Jiangsu Diagnosis and Treatment Data Platform for Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) Dominant Diseases. Propensity score matching at a 1∶4 ratio was applied, resulting in 580 cases selected for final analysis, which comprised 448 patients in the TCM group(manipulative reduction plus small splint fixation) and 132 in the surgical treatment group(open reduction and internal fixation). Each group was further stratified into type A, B, and C subgroups based on AO fracture classification. Radiographic indicators including palmar tilt, radial inclination, and radial height were compared between groups before treatment and 1 day, 1 week, and 4-6 weeks after treatment, and pain visual analog scale(VAS) scores before treatment and 1 week and 4-6 weeks after treatment were also compared. Wrist joint function was assessed 12 weeks after treatment, using the Dienst wrist function score and the Gartland and Werley(G-W) wrist function score. Additionally, the radiographic indicators at different timepoints and the 12-week wrist function levels were compared between groups across different fracture types. ResultsNo statistically significant difference was observed in radiographic indicators and VAS scores at all timepoints before and after treatment, as well as wrist joint function grades assessed by the Dienst score and the G-W score at 12 weeks after treatment (P>0.05). Compared to those before treatment, both groups showed increased palmar tilt, radial inclination, and radial height 1 week and 4-6 weeks after treatment, and decreased VAS scores (P<0.05). Compared to those 1 week after treatment, both groups showed a decrease in palmar tilt, an increase in radial inclination and radial height, and a reduction in VAS score 4-6 weeks after treatment(P<0.05). In type A and B subgroups, the surgical treatment group had a higher radial inclination than the TCM group 4-6 weeks after treatment, while in the type C subgroup, a higher radial height was shown in the surgical treatment group than in the TCM group 4-6 weeks after treatment(P<0.05). In type C subgroup, there was significant difference between groups in the wrist joint function by G-W scores 12 weeks after treatment(P<0.05). ConclusionManipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation can maintain fracture alignment and alleviate pain in treating distal radius fractures, which achieves therapeutic outcomes comparable to surgical treatment. It is particularly suitable for type A and B fractures and can be considered an effective treatment option for distal radius fractures.

As an oral antidiabetic drugs,metformin has been widely used to treat various diseases such as gestational diabetes mellitus,polycystic ovary syndrome and obesity in pregnant women.Current literature suggests that intrauterine metformin exposure has no significant impact on perinatal outcomes of the offspring,such as neonatal hypoglycemia,neonatal respiratory distress syndrome,premature delivery and others.However,considering the possible transfer of metformin across the placental barrier,intrauterine metformin exposure may potentially influence the development of placenta and the fetus,cell metabolism,and hormone levels.According to the "Developmental Origins of Health and Diseases" theory,the long-term effect of intrauterine metformin exposure on the growth,metabolism,reproductive function and neuropsychological development of offspring reviewed here still need continuous attention.

Simple nephrotic syndrome (SNS) of 55 cases of hospitalized patients from 1984 to 1988, boy 46 cases, girl 9 cases. Age 7 months to 13 years were studied. In measurementsof serum immunoglobulin (Ig) 55 cases, IgG decreased 70.9%, but IgA and IgM were mostly normal. Serum IgG were decreased of SNS in 8 cases: IgG1 were significant ly lower than normal (P0.05); IgG3 were significantly higher of than normal (P
