Objective To investigate the differences in physical fitness and physiological indexes of male soldiers stationed at different altitudes and to analyze the determinants of physical fitness of these soldiers.Methods A total of 13 648 male soldiers at different altitudes were included,whose results of annual military physical assessment and physiological indexes in 2023 were collected and comparatively analyzed.Results The 3000-meter running performance,30-meter × 2 serpentine running performance and resting blood oxygen saturation of high-altitude soldiers gradually declined with the increase of altitudes.The pull-up performance dropped significantly when the altitude＞2000 m.Soldiers ≥30 years old demonstrated a marked decline in physical fitness across different training programs.Moderate altitude acclimatization was conduciveto the recovery of physical fitness of soldiers,while exposure to high-altitude environment ≥5 years led to overall deterioration.Conclusion The high-altitude environment significantly impacts the aerobic endurance,speed,agility,and strength of soldiers.Altitude ≥4000 m,age ≥30 years,and prolonged exposure ≥5 years may contribute to the decline in physical fitness of soldiers.

Objective To explore the characteristics of military training injuries in high-altitude troops and determine the possible impact of daily diet on these training injuries in order to provide theoretical reference for scientific training and medical service support for high-altitude troops.Methods A cross-sectional scheme was adopted in this study.A self-designed Military Training Injury Questionnaire for Plateau Troops was used to survey the officers and soldiers from resident high-altitude troops in July 2024 for their training injuries,daily diet,and other situations.The obtained data were statistically analyzed.Results Among the 3 655 participants,the incidence of military training injuries was 17.87%.The subject with highest incidence was physical training(45.94%),the most common season was winter(31.39%).The most common sites of injury were waist(28.48%),knees(22.21%),and ankles(18.07%),and the most common types were sprains(28.48%),chronic fatigue injuries(18.38%)and strains(12.25%).The intake amounts of coarse grains and potatoes,bean products,aquatic products and nuts were relatively low in the daily diet of high-altitude troops.Multivariate logistic regression analysis found intake of fruit(OR=0.625,95%CI:0.508～0.768,P<0.001)and of nut(OR=0.759,95%CI:0.654～0.879,P<0.001)were correlated with the occurrence of training injury.Conclusion The occurrence pattern of military training injuries in high-altitude troops in this survey is basically consistent with that of previous reports,but the incidence rate is slightly decreased.Regular consumption of fruit and nut may be protective factors for the occurrence of training injuries.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the mid- and long-term effectiveness of patellar resurfacing versus non-resurfacing in primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS: Twenty-six patients who underwent bilateral TKA between March 2013 and September 2015 were selected as the study subjects. One side was randomly chosen for patellar resurfacing (resurfacing group), and the other side was not (control group). There were 4 males and 22 females, the age ranged from 51 to 65 years, with an average of 59 years. According to Kellgren-Lawrence classification, there were 21 cases of grade Ⅳ and 5 cases of grade Ⅲ in both knees. There was no significant difference in the surgical side, and preoperative clinical and functional scores of the Knee Society Score (KSS), visual analogue scale (VAS) score, and the composition ratio of anterior knee pain localization points between the two groups ( P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative abnormal signs such as patellar clunk, feeling of constraint, patellar tendon weakness, crepitus, or snow-on-glass sensation, and the occurrence of complications were recorded and compared. Patient subjective evaluations included Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) and the degree of difficulty in high-level knee activities (including flexion with load bearing, going upstairs, going downstairs, squatting and standing up, kneeling, knee extension, and crossing legs for 7 items); KSS clinical/functional scores and VAS scores were used to evaluate the recovery of knee joint function, and the location of anterior knee pain was determined by a localization diagram. RESULTS: The operation time of the resurfacing group was significantly longer than that of the control group ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss between the two groups ( P>0.05). All patients' incisions healed by first intention; the hospital stay ranged from 8 to 23 days, with an average of 12.6 days. All patients were followed up 9-11 years, with an average of 9.7 years. Except for 1 case who died of multiple organ failure due to internal diseases at 9 years after operation and 5 cases with incomplete radiological data, the rest 20 patients were assessed radiologically and found that 1 side of the knee joint in the control group had patellar dislocation; the remaining patients had no prosthetic failure (fracture, loosening, displacement, etc.), patellar fracture, patellar necrosis, patellar instability, patellar tendon rupture, prosthetic revision, etc. No patients had reoperations due to patellar-related complications or anterior knee pain in both knee joints. At 2 years postoperatively and at last follow-up, there was no significant difference in the incidence of abnormal signs such as patellar clunk, feeling of constraint, patellar tendon weakness, crepitus, or snow-on-glass sensation, the incidence of high-level knee activity difficulty, and the composition ratio of anterior knee pain localization between the two groups ( P>0.05). The KSS clinical scores, functional scores, and VAS scores of both groups significantly improved compared to preoperative ones ( P<0.05); there was no significant difference in the comparison between the two groups at the two time points postoperatively ( P>0.05). At 2 years postoperatively and at last follow-up, there was no significant difference in FJS scores between the two groups ( P>0.05). CONCLUSION Patellar resurfacing or not has similar mid- and long-term effectiveness in primary TKA.
