OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effectiveness of three-dimentional (3D) printed personalized guide plate-assisted wrist arthroscopic repair for Palmer type ⅠB triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) injury. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 20 patients with Palmer type ⅠB TFCC injuries admitted between January 2023 and March 2024 who met the selection criteria. Among them, 13 were male and 7 were female; ages ranged from 23 to 35 years, with a mean age of 30.3 years. All patients had a history of trauma, 12 cases involved falls and 8 cases involved sprains. All patients demonstrated a positive "piano key sign". MRI revealed deep ulnar-side tears of the TFCC. Conservative treatment for 6 weeks yielded poor or no clinical improvement. The interval from injury to surgery ranged from 2 to 9 months, with a mean of 5.0 months. Patients underwent wrist arthroscopic repair assisted by 3D printed personalized guide plate. Functional recovery was assessed preoperatively and postoperatively using the visual analogue scale (VAS) score for pain, modified Mayo wrist score, and range of motion (ROM) measurements for wrist flexion-extension, ulnar-radial deviation, and pronation-supination. At last follow-up, MRI was performed to evaluate the healing of TFCC. RESULTS: All 20 patients underwent successful surgery without complications such as vascular or nerve injury, fracture, incisional infection, or joint stiffness. All patients were followed up 9-18 months (mean, 12.4 months). At last follow-up, patients demonstrated significant improvements in VAS scores, modified Mayo wrist scores, wrist flexion-extension ROM, ulnar-radial deviation ROM, and pronation-supination ROM compared to preoperative levels ( P<0.05). MRI at last follow-up showed preserved TFCC continuity, excellent healing, and secure fixation. CONCLUSION 3D-printed personalized guide plate significantly improve outcomes in wrist arthroscopic TFCC repair for Palmer type ⅠB injuries. They enable high-quality suturing, facilitate anatomical reconstruction, and markedly enhance wrist function.

The relationship between hyperuricemia (HUA) and erectile dysfunction (ED) remains inadequately understood. Given that HUA is often associated with various metabolic disorders, this study aims to explore the multivariate linear impacts of metabolic parameters on erectile function in ED patients with HUA. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted involving 514 ED patients with HUA in the Department of Andrology, Jiangsu Province Hospital of Chinese Medicine (Nanjing, China), aged 18 to 60 years. General demographic information, medical history, and laboratory results were collected to assess metabolic disturbances. Sexual function was evaluated using the 5-item version of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) questionnaire. Based on univariate analysis, variables associated with IIEF-5 scores were identified, and the correlations between them were evaluated. The effects of these variables on IIEF-5 scores were further explored by multiple linear regression models. Fasting plasma glucose ( β = -0.628, P < 0.001), uric acid ( β = -0.552, P < 0.001), triglycerides ( β = -0.088, P = 0.047), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( β = -0.164, P = 0.027), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c; β = -0.562, P = 0.012), and smoking history ( β = -0.074, P = 0.037) exhibited significant negative impacts on erectile function. The coefficient of determination ( R ²) for the model was 0.239, and the adjusted R ² was 0.230, indicating overall statistical significance ( F -statistic = 26.52, P < 0.001). Metabolic parameters play a crucial role in the development of ED. Maintaining normal metabolic indices may aid in the prevention and improvement of erectile function in ED patients with HUA.

OBJECTIVE: By analyzing the hormone secretion of the adenohypophysis, thyroid glands, gonads, and adrenal cortex in patients with hematological diseases before and after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), this study aims to preliminarily explore the effect of HSCT on patients' hormone secretion and glandular damage. METHODS: The baseline data of 209 hematological disease patients who underwent HSCT in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2023, as well as the data on the levels of hormones secreted by the adenohypophysis, thyroid glands, gonads and adrenal cortex before and after HSCT were collected, and the changes in hormone levels before and after transplantation were analyzed. RESULTS: After allogeneic HSCT, the levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), triiodothyronine (T3), free triiodothyronine (FT3) and estradiol (E2) decreased, while the levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle- stimulating hormone (FSH) increased. The T3 level of patients with decreased TSH after transplantation was lower than that of those with increased TSH after transplantation. In female patients, the levels of prolactin (PRL), progesterone (Prog), and testosterone (Testo) decreased after HSCT. Testo and PRL decreased when there was a donor-recipient sex mismatch, and the levels of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and cortisol (COR) decreased when the HLA matching was haploidentical. The levels of T3, FT3, and PRL decreased after autologous HSCT. In allogeneic HSCT patients, the levels of TSH, T4, T3, FT3, and ACTH in the group with graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) were significantly lower than those in the group without GVHD. Logistic regression analysis showed the changes in hormone levels after transplantation were not correlated with factors such as the patient's sex, age, or whether the blood types of the donor and the recipient are the same. CONCLUSION HSCT can affect the endocrine function of patients with hematological diseases, mainly affecting target glandular organs such as the thyroid, gonads, and adrenal glands, while the secretory function of the adenohypophysis is less affected.
