Objective:To evaluate the bone hook pulling technique in reduction of valgus-impacted femoral neck fractures.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 12 patients who had been treated from September 2021 to September 2022 for valgus-impacted femoral neck fractures at Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Honghui Hospital. There were 6 males and 6 females with an age of (43.8±10.1) years. By the Garden classification, the 12 cases were all type Ⅰ; by the Pauwels classification, 10 cases were type Ⅰ and 2 cases type Ⅱ. All patients were definitively diagnosed preoperatively by radiographs and CT images. The bone hook pulling technique was used to extend the bone hook from the lateral side to the medial side of the lesser trochanter, pull the bone hook to the lateral side, and reset the fracture with the help of pulling force and the action of the surrounding soft tissue hinge. The fractures were then fixed with the Femoral Neck System (FNS). Length of surgical incision, number of fluoroscopy for bone hook-related operations, operation time, quality of fracture reduction, fracture healing time, functional recovery of the hip and shortening of the femoral neck at the last follow-up were recorded.Results:The 12 valgus-impacted femoral neck fractures were successfully reset by the hook pulling technique. In this cohort, the length of surgical incision was (4.6±0.7) cm, the number of fluoroscopy for bone hook-related operations (4.3±0.7) times, and the operation time (54.3±4.2) min. The 12 patients were followed up for (11.5±4.2) months postoperatively and the fracture healing time (4.2±0.7) months. According to the Garden score, the quality of postoperative fracture reduction was assessed as grade Ⅰ in 10 cases and as grade Ⅱ in 2 cases. According to the Harris hip score, the hip function was assessed as excellent in 10 cases and as good in 2 cases at the last follow-up. The length of femoral neck shortening was (1.17±0.68) mm at the last follow-up in the 12 patients; no complications related to fracture reduction were observed.Conclusion:In the reduction of valgus-impacted femoral neck fractures, bone hook pulling technique shows advantages of operational simplicity, a high rate of successful reduction, and satisfactory clinical effects.

Objective :
By observing the changes of interleukin-22 ( IL-22) ,signal transduction and transcriptional activator 3 (STAT3) ,fasting blood glucose ( FBG) and fasting insulin ( FINS) of rats under the circumstance of chronic intermittent hypoxia and reoxygenation,to explore the role of IL-22 / STAT3 pathway in insulin resistance in- duced by chronic intermittent hypoxia.
Methods :
4 SD rats were randomly divided into control group (NC group) and intermittent hypoxia group ( CIH group) ,with 12 rats in each group.NC group was placed in normoxia environment for 12 weeks,while CIH group was first given intermittent hypoxia for 8 weeks and then resumed normoxia feeding until 12 weeks.FBG,FINS,IL-22 and p-STAT3 / STAT3 levels were measured at baseline,week 8 and week 12 in both groups,and insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) was calculated.The differences between the two groups were compared.
Results :
① There was no significant difference of the observation indexes between the two groups at baseline (P>0. 05) .At 8 weeks,the levels of FBG,FINS and HOMA-IR in CIH group were higher than those in NC group (P<0. 05) ,and the levels of IL-22 were lower than those in NC group (P <0. 05) .p-STAT3 / STAT3 showed a decreasing trend,but not statistically significant.At 4 weeks of reoxygenation,there were no significant differences in FBG,FINS,HOMA-IR and IL-22 levels between the two groups (P >0. 05 ) .p-STAT3 / STAT3 in CIH group was significantly higher than that in NC group ( P <0. 05 ) . ② Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that HOMA-IR was negatively correlated with IL-22 and p-STAT3 / STAT3 ( all P <0. 05) .
Conclusion
Chronic intermittent hypoxia can inhibit the expression of IL-22 / STAT3 signaling pathway,IL-22 / STAT3 signaling pathway may mediate insulin resistance induced by chronic intermittent hypoxia.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy between bone transport technique combined with bone grafting plus internal fixation and simple bone transport technique in the treatment of large segmental bone defects at lower limbs after trauma.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 42 patients with large segmental bone defects at lower limbs after trauma who had been treated at Department of Trauma Orthopaedics, Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Medicine College, Xi'an Jiaotong University from September 2015 to September 2019. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to the different methods of repairing bone defects. In group A of 18 patients subjected to bone transport combined with bone grafting plus internal fixation, there were 11 males and 7 females with an age of (35.2±10.3) years, and 12 tibial defects and 6 femoral defects; in group B of 24 patients subjected to simple bone transport, there were 15 males and 9 females with an age of (37.3±9.4) years, and 17 tibial defects and 7 femoral defects. The external fixation time (EFT), external fixation index (EFI), total cure time and complications were recorded and compared between the 2 groups. At the last follow-up, the Ennecking score for limb functional recovery (score/total score 30) and Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) were used to evaluate respectively the functional recovery of the limbs and postoperative anxiety.Results:The 2 groups were comparable because there was no significant difference between them in preoperative general data or follow-up time ( P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the number of surgeries between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). The EFT [(5.9±1.5) months], EFI [(0.45±0.09) months/cm], total treatment time [(16.2±2.4) months], Ennecking score for limb functional recovery (87.0%±8.6%), SAS score [(43.2±9.0) points], and complications per capita [(0.4±0.2) times/case] in group A were significantly better than those in group B [(15.3±4.2) months, (1.19±0.28) months/cm, (19.7±3.5) months, (77.3%±9.2%), (58.2±9.3) points, and (1.2±0.5) times/case] (all P<0.05). Conclusion:In the treatment of large segmental bone defects at lower limbs, compared with simple bone transport technique, bone transport technique combined with bone grafting plus internal fixation has advantages of shorter external fixation time and overall cure time, a lower rate of complications, and better functional recovery of the limbs.

Objective:To compare the clinical effects of acute shortening-lengthening technique with antibiotic calcium sulfate-loaded bone transport technique for the treatment of segmental tibial defects after trauma.Methods:The clinical data of 58 patients with large tibial defects treated by Ilizarov technique in Xi′an Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi′an Jiaotong University from May 2014 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Thirty patients were treated by acute shortening-lengthening (group A), and they were divided into those who were successful in one-time shortening during operation (group A1) and those who needed gradual shortening after operation (group A2) according to different shortening conditions. And 28 patients by antibiotic calcium sulfate-loaded bone transport (group B). The external fixation time (EFT) and external fixation index (EFI) of the two groups were compared. Bone defect healing and limb functions were evaluated according to the Association for the Study and Application of the Method of Ilizarov (ASAMI) criteria. Complications were compared by Paley classification. The measurement data of normal distribution were expressed as ± s, and t-test was used for comparison between groups; the count data were expressed as n(%), and the chi-square test, Fisher exact probability method or Mann-Whitney U test were used for comparison between groups. Results:Patients were followed for(27.5±5.1)months. There was no significant difference in EFT, EFI, bone defect healing and limb functions between the two groups( P>0.05). The incidence of Grade-Ⅱ[41.2% (7/17)], Grade-Ⅲ [47.1% (8/17)] pin-tract infection in group A1 and Grade-Ⅱ[46.2% (6/13)], Grade-Ⅲ pin-tract [53.8% (7/13)] in group A2 was significantly higher than those in group B[14.3% (4/28)], [17.9% (5/28)] ( P<0.05). The number of complications per capita in group A1 [(1.4±0.3) times/case] and in group A2 [(1.5±0.3) times/case]was significantly higher than that in group B [(1.1±0.5) times/case]. Conclusions:Patients can be cured successfully by both acute shortening-lengthening and bone transport techniques. Compared with acute shortening-lengthening group, the complication incidence in antibiotic calcium sulfate-loaded bone transport group was lower, especially, the infection-related complications. Therefore, antibiotic calcium sulfate-loaded bone transport technique has a greater application prospect in patients with large segmental bone defects caused by infection or osteomyelitis.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of double mini locking plate and anatomical locking plate in the treatment of comminuted olecranon fracture.Methods:The clinical data of 46 patients who underwent comminuted olecranon fracture in the Xi′an Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi′an Jiaotong University from March 2017 to May 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. Among them, 21 cases were treated with double mini locking plate (double plate group) and 25 cases with anatomical locking plate (single plate group). The operation time, patient satisfaction, range of motion, return to work time, soft tissue stimulation to remove internal fixation, Mayo elbow performance score (MEPS), disabilities of arm, shoulder and hand score (DASH) of the two fixation methods were statistically compared. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as ( ± s), and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Comparison between groups of count data was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Results:All 46 patients were followed up for to (19.17±2.79) months. All fractures healed after operation. There was no significant difference in operation time, range of motion, patient satisfaction, MEPS and DASH scores among the two groups( P>0.05). The time of returning to work was (8.47±2.13) weeks in the double plate group and (9.78±1.98) weeks in the single plate group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P< 0.05). There were 9 cases of internal fixation due to soft tissue stimulation, 1 cases in double plate group and 8 cases in single plate group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with anatomical locking plate, the treatment of olecranon fracture with double mini locking plate can effectively reduce soft tissue stimulation and promote patients to return to work early, and the operation time is not significantly prolonged, and the biomechanical advantage is obvious, the clinical effect is satisfactory and the postoperative function is good, so it is an effective treatment.
