Objective:To assess the effect and safety of bone-filling mesh container (BFC) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF).Methods:PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP, CBM and Wanfang database were searched by computer from inception to September 2019, for the randomized controlled trial (RCT) or case-control trial (CCT) that compared the treatment of OVCF using BFC and PKP. Two reviewers independently screened studies according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data and evaluated the quality of the included studies. Then meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3. The literature search results, basic characteristics of the included studies, operation time, postoperative visual analogue score (VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI), Cobb's angle, leakage rate of the bone cement and publication bias were evaluated.Results:Only 5 RCTs and 5 CCTs involving 668 patients were included. Compared with the PKP group, the BFC group showed no significant difference in postoperative VAS ( MD=-0.06, 95% CI -0.24-0.37), ODI ( MD=-0.20, 95% CI-1.13-0.73) and Cobb's angle ( MD=0.18, 95% CI-0.05-0.91), while there were significant differences in operation time ( MD=-3.07, 95% CI-5.53--0.60) and leakage rate ( OR=0.21, 95% CI 0.12-0.36). Funnel plots showed that there was no significant asymmetry among the above indicators, suggesting that publication bias had little effect on the results. Conclusion:BFC is as effective as PKP in the postoperative efficacy of OVCF, but is superior in operation time and leakage rate of bone cement.

Objective:To assess the clinical effects of closed reduction and intramedullary fixation with antegrade Kirschner wire plus rod rotation technique in the treatment of the fifth metacarpal neck fracture.Methods:In this retrospective study, 26 patients with the fifth metacarpal neck fracture were treated by closed reduction and intramedullary fixation with antegrade Kirschner wire plus rod rotation technique at Department of Orthopaedics, Central Hospital of Karamay from August 2015 to October 2017. They were 23 males and 3 females, aged from 12 to 53 years with an average age of 25.2 years. In the intramedullary nailing, a Kirschner wire pre-bent by 10° to 15° was inserted from the base of the fifth metacarpal into the medullary canal before closed reduction. After satisfactory reduction was achieved, the Kirschner wire was inserted across the fracture site into the metacarpal head for further reduction and fixation using rod rotation technique. After operation, a plaster was applied to protect the fixation for 2 weeks. Functional exercise was started after removal of the plaster. The Kirschner wire was not removed under local anaesthesia at the outpatient department until about 10 to 16 weeks postoperation when X-ray showed fracture healing. Records of their operation time, head/shaft angle of the fifth affected metacarpal, active range of motion of the metacarpophalangeal joints and Total Active Movement (TAM) of hand function at the last follow-up were collected.Results:Their operation time averaged 21 minutes (from 12 to 35 minutes). Anatomical reduction was achieved in 23 cases but not in 3 ones whose metacarpal head/shaft angle and alignment were obviously improved. Follow-ups for 6 to 29 months (average, 15.8 months) showed all the patients obtained solid fracture healing with no infection or delayed fracture healing. The head/shaft angle was improved significantly from preoperative 61.2°±11.2° to postoperative 14.7°±3.5° ( P<0.05) which was not significantly different from that of the healthy side (14.6°±1.7°)( P>0.05). The active range of motion of the metacarpophalangeal joint was 89.3°±4.2° after fixation removal, not significantly different from that of the healthy side (90.7°±1.5°) ( P>0.05). According to TAM scores at the last follow-up, 22 cases were rated as excellent, 3 as good and one as fair. Conclusion:In the treatment of the fifth metacarpal neck fracture, closed reduction and intramedullary fixation with antegrade Kirschner wire plus rod rotation technique is effective, because it is simple and limitedly invasive, and leads to limited complications, low costs and secondary reduction.

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of modified tracer minimally invasive fixation in robot-assisted pedicle screw placement. Methods: A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 41 patients with thoracolumbar fresh fracture at the orthopaedics department of Karamay Central Hospital from July 2017 to December 2017. There were 20 males and 21 females, aged 25-55 years, with an average of 40.6 years. According to AO fracture typing, there were 28 patients with type A and 13 patients with type B. The patients underwent robot-assisted pedicle screw placement. Random number table method was used to divide the patients into the conventional group (20 patients) and modified group (21 patients). The conventional group was treated with conventional tracer fixation, and the modified group modified tracer minimally invasive fixation. A total of 92 pedicle screws were implanted in the conventional group and 96 pedicle screws were implanted in the modified group. The size of wound, wound bleeding, time of fixing the tracer, complications (spinal cord injury and nerve root injury when fixing the tracer), development of the tracer fixator and artifacts were recorded. The accuracy of nail placement was evaluated by 320-slice CT scan and Gertzbein-Robbins criteria. Results: There was no significant difference in age, sex, diagnosis, transverse diameter of pedicle and e angle between the two groups (P>0.05). The wound size, wound bleeding, and time of fixing the tracer in the modified group were (6.00±1.26)mm, (1.38±0.22)ml and (1.42±0.17)minutes, respectively, while those of the conventional group were (40.16±5.71)mm, (11.61±1.15)ml, and (5.12±0.64)minutes respectively (P<0.05). No spinal cord or nerve root injury occurred in either group when the tracer was fixed. In the process of three-dimensional image acquisition and automatic registration, the tracer fixator in the modified group developed with Kirschner needle without artifacts, and the tracer in minimally invasive fixator had good fluoroscopy effect. The modified group included 94 pedicle screws of type A and two of type B according to Gertzbein-Robbins criteria. The conventional group included 89 pedicle screws of type A and three of type B according to Gertzbein-Robbins criteria. There was no significant difference in the screw placement accuracy between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion In the robot-assisted pedicle screw placement, the modified tracer minimally invasive fixation method is safe and less traumatic, with no side effect on the accuracy of pedicle screw placement.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of fire needle therapy for knee osteoarthritis (KOA), and provide reference for clinic and research. Methods Systematic searches were conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, Web of science, CNKI, VIP, CBM and WanFang Data to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on fire needle therapy treating KOA from inception to August 2013. Two reviewers independently screened articles according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data and evaluated the quality of the included studies. Then meta-analysis was performed using RevMan5.2. Results A total of 8 RCTs involving 820 patients were included. According to the different measures of control groups, subgroup analyses was performed and meta-analysis results showed that compared with the routine acupuncture group, the fire needle therapy group in clinical cured rate [OR=2.12, 95% CI (1.48, 3.02), P=0.000 1] and markedly effective rate (OR=3.92, 95%CI (2.65, 5.81), P<0.000 01] aspects all have statistical difference. Compared with the warm acupuncture group, the fire needle therapy group in the markedly effective rate [OR=4.12, 95% CI (1.92, 8.87), P=0.000 3] is statistically significant, but there is no statistical difference between the two groups in clinical cured rate [OR=3.09, 95% CI (0.95, 10.05), P =0.06]. Compared with the acupuncture needle (routine acupuncture and warm acupuncture) group, the fire needle therapy group in the visual analogue scale of knee pain [OR=-0.54, 95%CI (-0.85, -0.24), Z=3.46, P=0.000 5] after treatment is statistically difference. The adverse reactions to fire needle treatment of KOA patients have not been reported. Conclusion Current clinical evidence indicates that fire needle therapy is efficient for relieving clinical symptoms of patients with KOA, and improving their quality of life. However, due to lack of enough high-quality studies, fire needle therapy has to be further studied by conducting more strictly-designed, multicenter and large-scale RCTs.
