Objective:To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of our self-designed intelligent robot-assisted reduction system for fresh subtrochanteric fractures of the femur.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to include 10 patients with fresh subtrochanteric fracture of the femur who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedic Trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from January 2024 to July 2024. There were 7 males and 3 females with an age of (45.0±14.3) years and an interval from injury to surgery of (7.9±3.7) d. All the patients were treated by minimally invasive reduction which was assisted by our self-designed intelligent robot, and internal fixation with intramedullary nails. The operation duration, intraoperative reduction duration, intraoperative blood loss, and intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency were recorded. The reduction effect was evaluated by calculating the differences between preoperative planning and postoperative CT reconstruction (i.e., the differences in femoral shaft length and in rotation angle). The hip functional recovery was assessed by Harris hip function Scoring.Results:The mean operation time was 200.0 (161.3, 217.5) min, the reduction time (83.0±35.5) min, the intraoperative blood loss (290.0±110.1) mL, and the intraoperative fluoroscopy 18.5 (9.0, 19.3) times. In all patients, the difference in femoral shaft length was (2.4±1.4) mm, and the difference in rotation angle 5.1°±3.0°. All patients were followed up for (8.2±2.0)months. All the fractures got united at the last follow-up. Their Harris hip function score was (83.3±4.1) points.Conclusion:Our self-designed intelligent robot-assisted reduction system is feasible and effective in the surgery of fresh subtrochanteric fracture of the femur, because the robot system can complete the autonomous planning of reduction approaches before surgery and assist fracture reduction under real-time monitoring with three-dimensional images, leading to fine outcomes.

Objective To investigate the effect of the Piezo1 channel on tension-side angiogenesis and osteogenic remodeling during orthodontic tooth movement,so as to provide an experimental basis for accelerating orthodontic peri-odontal tissue remodeling.Methods This study was approved by the Animal Ethics Committee.Sixty healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats with bilateral maxillary incisors as the anchorage were selected,and nickel titanium tension springs were used to apply 0.5 N of force to the right maxillary first molar of the rats and construct an orthodontic tooth movement model.The rats were randomly divided into three groups(n=20 per group).On Days 0 and 8 of force appli-cation,equal volumes of saline(control group),100 μmol/L Piezo1 channel agonist(Yoda1 group),and 48 μmol/L Piezo1 channel inhibitor(GsMTx4 group)were injected into the buccal and palatal submucosa of the right maxillary first molar.Tooth movement distances were recorded on Days 1,3,7,and 14.Five rats from each group were sacrificed at each time point to obtain maxillary tissue samples.Hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining was performed to observe the histophysiological changes in the tension-side periodontal tissues.Immunohistochemical staining was used to mark and count CD31-positive cells(microvascular quantification)and to detect the expression of osteocalcin(OCN)in the tension side.Results Measurements of tooth movement distance showed that the Yoda1 group exhibited significantly in-creased tooth movement distances on Days 3,7,and 14(0.238±0.008 mm,0.406±0.011 mm,and 0.746±0.013 mm,respectively)compared to the control group(P<0.05).In contrast,the GsMTx4 group showed significantly reduced tooth movement distances on Day 7(0.282±0.011 mm)and Day 14(0.578±0.008 mm)compared to the control group(P<0.05).HE staining results indicated that the periodontal ligament space on the tension side gradually widened with the duration of force application and then gradually returned to normal,with visible osteoblasts.Quantitative analysis of CD31-positive cells(microvascular quantification)showed that the Yoda1 group had significantly increased numbers of blood vessels on Day 3(8.027±0.225)and Day 7(14.320±0.471)compared to the control group(P<0.05),peaking on Day 7 and then gradually decreasing.The GsMTx4 group showed significantly fewer blood vessels in the periodontal ligament on the tension side on Day 3(6.013±0.177),Day 7(9.187±0.678),and Day 14(12.613±0.334)compared to the control group(P<0.05).Immunohistochemical results indicated that the Yoda1 group had significantly increased OCN expression on Days 1,3,7,and 14 compared to the control group(P<0.05),while the GsMTx4 group showed re-duced OCN expression on Days 7 and 14(P<0.05).Conclusion Activation of the Piezo1 channel promotes orthodon-tic tooth movement,tension-side angiogenesis,and osteogenic remodeling,while inhibition of the Piezo1 channel produces the opposite effect.
