Objective:To compare the effects of glenosphere offset positions on the impingement-free range of motion (ROM) in reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA).Methods:Shoulder joint models were reconstructed using shoulder CT scans of 6 patients with primary osteoarthritis. RTSA was performed virtually according to standard surgical procedures, and shoulder movements were simulated. Reverse shoulder models were constructed with 2 lateral offsets (0 and 4 mm) and 6 positional offsets (center, inferior, posterior, anterior, anterior-inferior, and posterior-inferior). The impingement-free ROM and impingement sites for abduction-adduction, flexion-extension, total rotation (sum of internal and external rotation), and total ROM (sum of ROM in all movement modes) were evaluated.Results:All the 12 combinations of different glenosphere offsets achieved 50% of the original shoulder ROM in all movements. In the abduction-adduction motion with 0 and 4 mm lateral offsets, the anterior-inferior offset provided the largest ROM (94.4°±8.7° and 105.3°±6.9°, respectively), but there was no significant difference between the positions ( P>0.05). In the flexion-extension motion with 0 and 4 mm lateral offsets, the posterior-inferior offset showed the largest ROM (194.1°±6.9° and 196.9°±9.7°, respectively), but there was no significant difference between the positions ( P>0.05). In the total rotation motion with 0 and 4 mm lateral offsets, the anterior-inferior offset had the largest ROM (141.5°±5.9° and 160.6°±8.5°, respectively), showing significant advantages over the center, anterior, and posterior offsets ( P<0.05), but insignificant advantages over the inferior and posterior-inferior offsets ( P>0.05). In total ROM, the anterior-inferior offset provided the largest ROM. When the lateral offset was 0 mm, the anterior-inferior offset provided a ROM of 421.8°±16.4°, showing significant advantages over the center and posterior offsets ( P<0.05). Compared with the lateral glenosphere offset of 0 mm, the lateral glenosphere offset of 4 mm significantly improved total shoulder ROM (122.8°±10.6° versus 145.8°±4.8°) and total ROM (390.9°±11.6° versus 428.4°±19.8°) ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The anterior-inferior, inferior, and posterior-inferior glenosphere offsets can improve ROM in all movement patterns. The position and lateral offset of the glenosphere significantly affect the total rotation and total ROM of the shoulder joint. Specifically, the anterior-inferior and inferior offsets show significant advantages over the center position in total rotation and total ROM of the shoulder joint.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and genetic characteristics of Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS).Methods:The clinical data and genetic characteristics of 2 children with PWS diagnosed in Hebei Provincial People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, and the relevant literature was reviewed.Results:Case 1, male, aged 6 years and 3 months, was presented to the hospital because of short stature, mild mental retardation, dysarthria, scoliosis, cryptorchidism, micropenis, long skull, narrow face, almond eyes, small mouth, thin upper lip, downward corners of the mouth, fair skin. He had hypotonia and feeding difficulties in infancy, and gradually became hyperappetitive. Bilateral cryptorchidism surgery was performed at 1.5 years old, but the effect was not good. Case 2, male, aged 4 years, presented to the hospital mainly due to obesity, hyperappetite, excessive weight gain, backward language and cognitive function, dysarthria, and scoliosis.The infant had feeding difficulties in the early stage, and bilateral cryptorchidism surgery at the age of 2 was not effective.Methylation specific polymerase chain reaction and methylation specific multilink probe amplification were used to detect the loss of the parent fragment in the key region (15q11-13) of PWS, which confirmed Prader-Willi syndrome.Conclusion:PWS is a rare hereditary disease with complex and diverse clinical manifestations and different characteristics in different age groups. It is highly susceptible to unexplained hypotonia and feeding difficulties in infancy. Children with short stature and obesity should be alert to the disease, which can be clearly diagnosed by molecular genetic techniques.

Objective:To assess the value of amide proton transfer weighted (APTw) imaging in the evaluation of pH changes in infarct core (IC) and ischemic penumbra (IP) in subacute cerebral infarction.Methods:The data of twenty-three subacute cerebral infarction patients with unilateral steno-occlusive disease of the middle cerebral artery (subacute infarction group) from April to November 2019 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University were prospectively analyzed. Fifteen healthy volunteers were enrolled in this study as the control group. All subjects underwent conventional MRI, DWI, 3D-pseudo continuous arterial spin labeling (3D-pCASL) and APTw sequences. Based on DWI images, relative cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and APTw images to determine the region of IC, blood flow penumbra [cerebral blood flow(CBF)-DWI mismatch area, IP CBF] and metabolic penumbra (APTw-DWI mismatched area, IP APT). 3D ROIs were used to semi-automatically measure the APTw signals and the volume of IC and IP CBF of the patients in subacute infarction group. The comparison of APTw signals between the infarct side and the contralateral side in the subacute infarction group, the comparison of bilateral APTw signals in the control group, and the comparison of APTw signals in the IC and IP CBF regions were performed by paired-sample t test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The paired-sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the APTw signals between the two groups. The Friedman test was applied to compare the difference of volumes among IP CBF1.5, IP CBF2.5 and IP APT . Results:There was no significant difference of the APTw signals among the IC, the contralateral side in the subacute infarction group and the control group ( P>0.05). The APTw signals of IP CBF and IC of the infarction group were statistically different ( P<0.05). Compared with the contralateral side of IP CBF1.5 (3.7±1.7, -1.84±1.48, 5.57±2.75), the APTwmax (3.07±1.41, t=-3.012, P=0.006), APTw min [-1.30 (-1.74, -0.57), Z=-2.099, P=0.036], and APTwmax-min(4.51±2.58, t=-3.273, P=0.003) signals in the IP CBF1.5 were decreased ( P<0.05). Compared with the contralateral side of IP CBF2.5 [-1.53 (-2.80, -0.91), 5.31±2.61], the APTw min [-1.08 (-1.60, -0.49), Z=-2.616, P=0.009] and APTwmax-min (4.41±2.72, t=-3.228, P=0.004) signals in the IP CBF2.5 were decreased. The volumes of IP CBF1.5 [107.51(50.08, 138.61)mm 3], IP APT [99.00 (53.27, 121.335) mm 3] and IP CBF2.5 [89.91 (51.53, 139.87) mm 3] were successively reduced (χ2=7.913, P=0.019), and the volume of IP CBF2.5 was significantly smaller than that of IP CBF1.5 ( P=0.037). Conclusion:The acid-base metabolism in the IC of subacute cerebral infarction is not obvious, but the blood flow penumbra has local acid-base metabolism imbalance, and the range of metabolic penumbra coincides with the blood flow penumbra.

Acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO) refers to ischemic stroke caused by large vessel occlusion of internal carotid artery, middle cerebral artery and vertebrobasilar artery, which has the characteristics of large infarct, relatively poor outcome, higher disability and mortality. Therefore, early vascular recanalization and rescue of ischemic penumbra are the key to improve the outcome of patients with AIS-LVO. Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) has a definite effect on AIS-LVO. The current guidelines recommend that MT should be performed on the basis of IVT for AIS-LVO patients without contraindications of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT), the so-called bridging therapy. IVT can increase the risk of bleeding to a certain extent, delay MT and increase the cost of hospitalization. However, there are still many controversies about whether the patients with AIS-LVO can directly perform MT. This article reviews the comparative study of direct MT and bridging therapy in patients with anterior circulation AIS-LVO, hoping to provide reference for clinicians in the treatment of AIS-LVO.

Objective To summarize the clinical data of macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) in adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) patients and provide evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of AOSD with MAS patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2012 to August 2018, and compared with patients with AOSD alone. Data were analyzed by t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, x2 test or Fisher exact test. Results A total of 14 AOSD with MAS patients were enrolled, accounting for 7.6％(14/185) of AOSD patients at the same period, including 2 males and 12 females. The median duration of AOSD in MAS was 1.3 (0.25, 4) months. Compared with the AOSD group, the age of onset was younger in the MAS group (t=-2.038, P=0.037), and the proportion of splenomegaly (t=9.020, P=0.003), pericardial effusion (t=8.663, P=0.003), pleural effusion (t=4.754, P=0.029) was higher. The white blood cell count (t=-4.171, P<0.01), hemoglobin level (t=-2.661, P=0.008), platelet count (t=-5.672, P<0.01), neutrophil count (t=-5.082, P<0.01), albumin (t=-3.426, P<0.01), fibrinogen (t=-5.986, P<0.01), ESR (t=-2.941, P=0.003), CRP (t=-2.014, P=0.044) was significantly decreased, ALT (t=-3.227, P<0.01), AST (t=-3.105, P=0.002), triglyceride (t=-5.612, P<0.01), ferritin>2000 μg/L (t=7.833, P=0.005) was significantly increased. Fourteen patients with AOSD complicated with MAS were treated with glucocorticosteroids, 5 with methylprednisolone, 8 with cyclosporine A, 8 with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), 2 with etoposide, and 1 with tocilizumab. After treatment, 11 cases recovered and 3 cases died. Conclusion Younger AOSD patients tend to complicated with MAS, especially at the early course of the disease, and splenomegaly occur more frequently clinically compared to patients without MAS. When blood cell count, fibrinogen and ESR decreases, triglyceride and ferritin levels increases in AOSD patients, the occurrence of MAS is indicated. Timely treatment can improve the prognosis of patients.

Objective To provide more reference base for the prevention and treatment of acute cerebral infarction through the correlation study between the onset of acute cerebral infarction and meteorological factors during the same period in Dalian area.Methods From January 1,2015 to December 31,2015,the data of hospitalized medical records and meteorological data during the same period in 3 5 7 8 consecutive patients with acute cerebral infarction admitted to three tertiary hospitals in Dalian were analyzed retrospectively.The seasonal regularity of acute cerebral infarction in Dalian area was analyzed descriptively.A single retrospective 1 ∶ 1 matched case-crossover study design was used to analyze the effect of mean air temperature lag 0-3 days on the onset of acute cerebral infarction.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the influence of meteorological factors of the day on the onset of acute cerebral infarction,at the same time,the relationship between stroke subtypes and meteorological factors was investigated.Results (1) The incidence of acute cerebral infarction was higher in winter (December,January,and February) and it was lower in summer (from June to August).(2) Hysteresis analysis:when the temperature was reduced by 1 ℃each time,the OR values of acute cerebral infarction lagging behind 0 and 1 d were 1.034 (95％ CI 1.012-1.056) and 1.025 (95％ CI 1.008-1.042) respectively.There was significant difference (all P ＜ 0.05).The correlation between the temperature of the day of onset and the onset of acute cerebral infarction was the highest.(3) The onset of cerebral infarction was negatively correlated with the average temperature of the day and hours of sunshine (r =-0.392,-0.260,all P ＜ 0.01),and it was positively correlated with the daily average air pressure (r =0.403,P ＜ 0.01).Among them,the correlation of the type of cardiogenic embolism and each meteorological factor was the highest.The correlation coefficients of daily average temperature,daily air pressure,and hours of sunshine were-0.836,0.733,and-0.629,respectively (all P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion A cold and high air pressure may trigger the onset of acute cerebral infarction,especially cardiogenic cerebral infarction.

Minor stroke is a common type of acute ischemic stroke. Early large-scale thrombolytic studies regarded minor stroke as a contraindication of intravenous thrombolysis. In recent years, more and more retrospective studies have shown that some minor stroke patients can still benefit from intravenous thrombolysis. Some studies are starting to identify patients who are more likely to be treated with thrombolysis, but there is still a lack of evidence-based evidence. This article summarizes the thrombolytic study of minor stroke, hoping to provide some references for nerve physicians.
