BACKGROUND:Pediatric flexible flatfoot is a common foot deformity that often leads to foot pain and reduced quality of life.OBJECTIVE:To explore the relationship between radiographic parameters and clinical efficacy of subtalar arthroereisis in the treatment of pediatric flexible flatfoot.METHODS:A retrospective study was conducted on 56 pediatric patients(mean age of 11.8 years)who underwent subtalar arthroereisis at Guangzhou Orthopedic Hospital between January 2022 and May 2023.All patients underwent detailed radiographic examinations and clinical evaluations before and after surgery,including the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot score and Visual Analog Scale score.Paired t-tests and independent t-tests were used to compare changes in radiographic parameters and clinical scores before and after surgery.Correlation analyses were conducted to evaluate the relationship between radiographic parameters and clinical outcomes.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)All radiographic parameters significantly improved during the 8 to 12-month follow-up after surgery(P<0.001).(2)Clinical evaluation results indicated that the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot score significantly improved from 66.2±6.0 preoperatively to 91.3±5.8 postoperatively,and the Visual Analog Scale score significantly decreased from 3.1±0.8 preoperatively to 1.3±0.8 postoperatively(P<0.001).(3)Independent t-tests showed a significant difference in postoperative the first metatarsal angle and Visual Analog Scale score grades(P=0.043),with a smaller the first metatarsal angle associated with less postoperative pain;preoperative lateral arch angle showed a significant difference between the"excellent"and"good"groups in postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot scores(P=0.033),suggesting that a smaller preoperative posterior arch angle might predict better postoperative foot function recovery.(4)Correlation analysis showed that preoperative posterior arch angle(r=-0.486,P<0.01)and heel pitch angle(r=-0.344,P<0.01)were significantly negatively correlated with postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot,while preoperative medial longitudinal arch angle(r=0.293,P<0.05)was significantly positively correlated with postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot.Postoperative medial longitudinal arch angle(r=0.331,P<0.05)and lateral arch angle(r=0.387,P<0.01)were significantly positively correlated with postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot,whereas postoperative Bohler's angle(r=-0.272,P<0.05),posterior arch angle(r=-0.461,P<0.01),and heel pitch angle(r=-0.318,P<0.01)were significantly negatively correlated with postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot.(5)It is concluded that subtalar arthroereisis is significantly effective in correcting pediatric flexible flatfoot,and improvements in radiographic parameters are closely related to clinical efficacy.Preoperative and postoperative radiographic evaluations can serve as important reference indicators for predicting postoperative clinical outcomes,guiding clinicians to optimize treatment plansand rehabilitation programs.

Objective To study effectiveness of System intervention to occupation burnout of medical staff.Methods Specimens were classified as interventional group and control group by 1:1 partnership rule.Systemic intervention,which came from organization,family and individual,was only applied to interventional group.The objective was to establish requirement and resource mechanism,continually increase response resource,and improve matching state of individual & job.It allowed full play to the first grade prevention(development intervention),the second grade prevention(symptom intervention)and the third grade prevention(burnout intervention).It determined effectiveness of intervention via indexes of occupation burnout,mental health and satisfaction within group or internal groups.Results Before systemic intervention,there was no significant difference between intervention group and control group(P>0.05).After systemic intervention,the scores of burnout(emotion exhaustion(17.54±9.97)vs(14.30±11.87),P<0.01;depersonalization(5.29±5.01)vs(4.63±5.65),P<0.05;low personal accomplishment(6.47±4.89),(5.61±5.10),P<0.01),check list-90(SCL-90),personal satisfaction in intervention group showed apparent difference compared with that in control group.But there was no significant difference in control group before and after intervention.Conclusion On the whole systemic intervention to health care staff obtains obvious achievement,effectively reduces emotional exhaustion,obsessive symptom and terror emotion,and enhances individual satisfaction.

construction of a comprehensive,multifunctional and theory supported operation system is the organization basis on which occupation burnout can be scientifically and effectively interfered.Interference to occupation burnout is divided into nine subsystems by "participation" dimension which consists of organization,family and individual,and by "functional" matrix dimension which consists of the first grade prevention(development interfere),the second grade prevention(symptom interfere) and the third grade prevention(burnout interfere).Among these subsystems there exist factors of different target,content,mode and method etc.Their operation and interrelation form a complete working system via which an organization interferes occupation burnout.Promote the hospital management more scientificly and hominizaiton's in human resource.
