ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy and mechanisms of Osteoking in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis （KOA） in real-world practice， so as to provide a basis for the rational clinical use of Osteoking. MethodFrom the Osteoking for knee osteoarthritis case registration system， 638 KOA cases treated with Osteoking were selected and analyzed in SPSS 26.0. The clinical data were collected from 20 hospitals in China from May 2020 to December 2021. Descriptive analyses of patient age， gender， body mass index， course of treatment and other parameters were performed. The Mann-Whitney U test was performed to compare the visual analogue scale （VAS） and Western Ontario and McMaster universities arthritis index （WOMAC） scores before and after treatment. The integrative pharmacology-based research platform of traditional Chinese medicine （TCMIP） v2.0 was used for network analysis of the core targets of Osteoking in treating knee osteoarthritis. Furthermore， 20 KOA patients treated with Osteoking in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from October to December in 2022 were enrolled in the treatment group， and 20 healthy volunteers in the control group. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to measure the serum levels of related indicators to verify the prediction results. ResultA total of 638 KOA patients were treated with Osteoking， including 429 （67.24%） receiving Osteoking alone and 209 （32.76%） receiving Osteoking combined with other therapies. The female patients （415， 65.05%） were more than the male patients （223， 34.95%）. The patients showed the mean age of （63.48±13.51） years， mean body mass index of （24.09±2.98） kg·m^-2， and mean course of treatment of （15.78±9.66） days. Most of the patients were rated as grades Ⅱ （46.24%） and Ⅲ （34.64%） in Kellgren-Lawrence （K-L） grading and in the relief stage （82.45%） in clinical staging. There was no significant correlation between clinical staging and K-L grading results. The cluster analysis identified three TCM syndromes： Qi stagnation and blood stasis， cold-dampness obstruction， and liver-kidney deficiency. The overall clinical efficacy evaluation showed that VAS score decreased from （6.01±0.85） scores before treatment to （2.54±1.73） scores after treatment （P<0.05）， and the WOMAC score decreased from （93.25±25.91） scores before treatment to （50.73±25.14） scores after treatment （P<0.05）. The network analysis predicted that Osteoking might regulate the transforming growth factor-beta （TGF-β）， tumor necrosis factor-alpha （TNF-α）， and nuclear factor-kappa B （NF-κB） signaling pathways to exert the therapeutic effect. The clinical trial showed elevated TGF-β₁ level （P<0.01） and lowered NF-κB subunit RELA and tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily， member 1A （TNFRSF1A） levels （P<0.05） after treatment. The synergistic effects of these changes provide a multidimensional and comprehensive therapeutic efficacy for KOA， alleviating the joint pain and limited mobility in patients. ConclusionOsteoking showed significant therapeutic efficacy in treating KOA. Osteoking may act on multiple pathways involved in cartilage metabolism and inflammation. The findings provide experimental evidence and theoretical support for elucidating the multi-target mechanism of Osteoking in treating KOA.

ObjectiveTo investigate the improvement of the efficacy of Osteoking in patients with knee osteoarthritis in the onset and remission stage and to systematically explore its potential intervention mechanism， so as to provide a certain reference for improving the clinical application value of Osteoking and guiding its clinical rational drug use. MethodThrough the real-world study of the treatment of knee osteoarthritis with Osteoking， the data was obtained and entered into the "Osteoking for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis case registration system"， and 105 patients with episodic and remission knee osteoarthritis from the outpatient or inpatient orthopedic department of 20 medical institutions， including the Third Affiliated Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine， Peking Union Medical College Hospital， Wangjing Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences and Hunan Aerospace Hospital， from May 1， 2020 to December 31， 2021， were selected in the system. It included 60 patients treated with Osteoking and joint injection， and 45 patients treated with joint injection alone. The WOMAC osteoarthritis index score， visual analogue （VAS） pain score， individual types of pain symptoms （cold pain， hot pain， tingling， dull pain， soreness） and other TCM symptoms were observed and compared between the two groups， and statistically analyzed. In order to further elucidate the potential molecular mechanism of Osteoking combined with joint injection in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis in the treatment of onset and remission， this study used the "Bone Injury Cross Database （http：//bone-xtrans.com/database，BX-Data）" to collect the gene set of knee osteoarthritis disease， the traditional Chinese medicinal materials， chemical composition， material base， candidate target， candidate target， sodium hyaluronate candidate target data for screening， and constructed an interaction network of "disease target". ResultsAmong the 105 patients with knee osteoarthritis enrolled， 15.24% （16/105） were in the episodic period， 84.76% （89/105） were in remission， and there were no convalescent patients. There were 72 cases （68.57%） in women， 33 cases （31.43%） more than men， 60 cases in the observation group and 45 cases in the control group in 105 patients. There were 20 patients with a VAS score of 5 and 19 patients with a score of 6 in the observation group， accounting for 65.00% of the observation group. The comparative results of VAS scores between groups before and after treatment showed that the scores of the two groups were （4.42±1.01） scores， （5.00±1.02） scores.4 weeks after treatment， and （3.12±1.04） scores and （3.56±1.08） scores，8 weeks after treatment， respectively， which were lower than those before treatment （6.23±1.28） scores，（ 6.02±1.22） scores （P<0.05）， and the comparative results of the pain properties of the two groups showed that the improvement rates before and after thermal pain and tingling in the observation group were 3.3%（2/60） and 16.7%（10/60）， respectively. The control group was 2.2% （1/45）and 15.6%（7/45）［（χ²=4.034、13.583，P<0.05）］， respectively， and the improvement rate of cold pain and soreness in the observation group was 5.0%（3/60） and 3.3%（2/60）， which was higher than that of the control group . The results of comparing the WOMAC scores before and after treatment of the two groups showed that the difference between the stiffness score before and after treatment in the observation group was （1.68±1.42） scores， the difference between the score before and after treatment in the control group was （1.20±1.60） scores （P<0.05）， and the pain score before and after treatment was （3.43±2.88） scores， the difference before and after daily activity score was （12.37±10.21） scores， and the total score before and after treatment was （17.48±12.76） scores， which were also higher than those in the control group （2.82±3.29）， （10.80±9.63），（14.82±12.62） scores. The results of comparing the improvement of other symptoms before and after treatment showed that the improvement rate of less sleep and more dreams in the observation group was 28.3%（17/60）， which was significantly higher than that of the control group of 2.2%（1/45）（χ²=5.914，P<0.05）， and the improvement rates of the five symptoms of thirst and drinking， irritability， dry mouth and pharynx， dull complexion and hand， foot and mouth fever in the observation group were 3.3%（2/60）， 10.0%（6/60）， 8.3%（5/60）， 10.0%（6/60） and 5.0%（3/60）， respectively， which were higher than those in the control group -2.2%（1/45）， 2.2%（1/45）， 2.2%（1/45）， 4.5%（2/45）， -6.7%（3/45）. Through network analysis， it was found that the enrichment pathway of Henggu bone wound healing agent mainly acted on the three mechanisms of bone improvement， energy metabolism and anti-inflammatory and analgesic， and the sodium hyaluronate enrichment pathway mainly acted on the anti-inflammatory and analgesic mechanism. ConclusionThe efficacy of Osteoking combined with intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate in the treatment of patients with knee osteoarthritis in attack and remission is better than that of sodium hyaluronate alone， especially in anti-inflammatory and analgesic， and the two drugs have synergistic effect. Osteoking may play its role in relieving the symptoms of joint stiffness， tingling， heat pain， and less sleep and more dreams by improving bone quality and regulating the body's energy metabolism pathways， which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Periarticular fracture of the shoulder is a common type of fractures in the elderly. Postoperative adverse events such as internal fixation failure, humeral head ischemic necrosis and upper limb dysfunction occur frequently, which seriously endangers the exercise and health of the elderly. Compared with the fracture with normal bone mass, the osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder is complicated with slow healing and poor rehabilitation, so the clinical management becomes more difficult. At present, there is no targeted guideline or consensus for this type of fracture in China. In such context, experts from Youth Osteoporosis Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatrics Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, Osteoporosis Group of Youth Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons and Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Chinese Integrative Medicine developed the Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder in the elderly ( version 2023). Nine recommendations were put forward from the aspects of diagnosis, treatment strategies and rehabilitation of osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder, hoping to promote the standardized, systematic and personalized diagnosis and treatment concept and improve functional outcomes and quality of life in elderly patients with osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder.

  Objective  To understand the current status of surgical treatment for hemophilia osteoarthropathy (HO) in China.  Methods  Using an online questionnaire, select domestic hospitals that partici-pated in the compilation of the 'Guideline for perioperative management of hemophilia patients undergoing orthopaedic surgery in China ', in addition to members of the National Joint Surgery Group, and the Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Association for targeted investigation and analysis.  Results  A total of 17 domestic hospitals were included, all of which were general hospitals. Hospitals that started HO surgery treatment before 2000 accounted for 35.29%. A total of 3057 surgical cases of HO were reported by those hospitals. The most commonly performed surgical procedures were hip and knee joint replacement. The most commonly used coagulation factor replacement regimen was recombinant coagulation factor preparation. Ten hospitals reported finding patients with transfusion-related infectious diseases. Bleeding and hematoma formation were the most frequently reported surgical complications. Excessive length of hospital stay and high economic costs were the most frequently reported problems.  Conclusions  Surgical treatment for HO in 17 hospitals is mainly carried out in some large comprehensive medical centers in the eastern region. Compared with the patient base, the popularity and number of surgeries are still relatively insufficient. It is necessary to further standardize the treatment system by standardizing factor replacement and strengthening rehabilitation to improve surgical treatment outcomes.

Objective:To explore the repair methods of complex facial defect wounds involving paranasal sinuses and their clinical effectiveness.Methods:A retrospective observational study was conducted. From January 2020 to May 2022, 5 patients admitted to the Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery of Xiangya Hospital of Central South University and 4 patients admitted to the Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery of Chenzhou First People's Hospital with complex facial defect wounds involving paranasal sinuses met the inclusion criteria, including 6 males and 3 females, aged 35-69 years, including 4 patients with titanium mesh exposure combined with paranasal sinuses injury and 5 patients with tumor involving paranasal sinuses. After an adequate assessment of the damage by a multiple discipline team, titanium mesh removal, paranasal sinus debridement, and paranasal sinus mucosa removal were performed in patients with exposed titanium mesh, and radical tumor resection was performed in patients with tumors, with postoperative skin and soft tissue defects areas of 5.0 cm×2.5 cm to 18.0 cm×7.0 cm, anterior paranasal sinus wall defects/absence areas of 3 cm×2 cm to 6 cm×4 cm, and sinus cavity depths of 1 to 4 cm. Depending on the perforator course of the descending branch of the lateral circumflex femoral artery, the anterolateral femoral chimeric flap or anterolateral femoral myocutaneous flap (with flap area of 9 cm×4 cm to 19 cm×8 cm, muscle size of 5 cm×3 cm×3 cm to 11 cm×6 cm×3 cm) was transplanted to repair the defect, and the donor site wound was sutured directly. The type of tissue flap transplanted, the blood vessel of the recipient area, and the vascular anastomosis way during the operation, the recovery of the donor and recipient areas and the occurrence of complications after operation were observed. The appearance and blood supply of the recipient area and the recurrence of ulcers and tumors were followed up.Results:The anterolateral femoral myocutaneous flap transplantation was performed in 6 patients, and the anterolateral femoral chimeric flap transplantation was performed in 3 patients. The blood vessels in recipient areas were facial arteries and veins in 3 cases and superficial temporal arteries and veins in 6 cases. The superficial temporal arteries and veins were bridged with blood vessels in tissue flaps by flow-through way in 2 patients, and end-to-end anastomosis of blood vessels in donor and recipient areas was performed in 7 patients. After operation, all the tissue flaps survived, and the facial defect wounds were well repaired without cerebrospinal fluid leakage or paranasal sinus secretion leakage, no intracranial infection occurred, and the wounds in donor areas were healed well. Follow-up of 6-35 months after operation showed that all the patients had good blood supply in the recipient area, and the shape was acceptable; 4 patients with exposed titanium mesh had no recurrence of ulceration, and 5 patients with tumor had no local tumor recurrence or metastasis.Conclusions:Based on an adequate assessment of the extent of paranasal sinuses involved in the facial wound and the nature of the defect, good clinical effects can be achieved by using the anterolateral femoral muscle flap or the anterolateral femoral chimeric flap transplantation to repair complex facial defect wounds with open paranasal sinuses.

Total hip arthroplasty plays a key role in the end-stage diagnosis and treatment of a variety of femoral and hip diseases, but the risk of dislocation caused by traditional bone cement prosthesis has always been one of the key constraints of total hip arthroplasty. Bousquet added a polymer lining between the femoral head and acetabulum to separate the activities between the lining and acetabulum. The dual mobility acetabular cup system can effectively reduce the incidence of prosthesis dislocation. The first generation of the dual mobility acetabular cup system is lined with polyethylene. With the progress of modern material medicine technology, a new type of the dual mobility acetabular cup system with smooth surface, bionic coating and high cross-linked polyethylene liner has been gradually formed, and its performance has been improved. Because of the existence of the inner liner, the distance between the femoral head and acetabulum of the dual mobility acetabular cup system is larger, which can allow greater range of motion, has higher stability, is not easy to dislocate, and has lower wear degree of the prosthesis at the same time. Therefore, the dual mobility acetabular cup system is more and more widely used in clinical practice, especially for the elderly with high risk of dislocation, revision surgery or neuromuscular dysfunction. But on the other hand, based on the design principle of dual motion total hip prosthesis, the disadvantages such as intraprosthetic dislocation caused by multiple factors and the lack of fixation holes result in the dual motion total hip system easily triggering acetabular loosening when targeting patients such as severe bone defects, thus limiting its further use. The dual motion total hip system can be tailored to different clinical applications, such as for populations with different characteristics, and for different methods of primary surgery, with different application strategies, thereby reducing the incidence of postoperative revision. In this paper, we take the application of the dual motion total hip acetabular system in the total hip arthroplasty as the core, and the system puts forth the principle of the dual motion total hip acetabular system, compared with traditional bone materials, introduces its advantages and disadvantages, and reveals its application strategy in the clinic, and gives an outlook for the future application of the dual motion total hip acetabular system in orthopedics.

This article reported a case of malignant insulinoma which recurred as liver metastasis 12 years after the initial pancreatic insulinoma resection. The patient was a 48-year-old woman who was firstly diagnosed as pancreatic insulinoma in 2006 and underwent the surgery involved complete resection of a 1.9 cm×1.3 cm tumor located in pancreas. No signs of either invasion or metastasis was detected according to preoperative imaging examination and intraoperative exploration. The tumor was diagnosed as a benign insulinoma according to histopathological results. The patient had no hypoglycemia and the fasting blood glucose was normal during the subsequent 12 years. The patient underwent a fasting blood glucose of 2.8 mmol/L in 2018, and gradually experienced palpitation and cold sweats, which was relieved by eating. She was hospitalized in May 2018 with blood glucose of 1.73 mmol/L and insulin of 1 128 pmol/L. CT and MRI revealed morphologic changes of postoperative pancreas and abnormal liver signal, the liver tumor was finally identified as insulinoma by modified selective intra-arterial calcium stimulated venous sampling (ASVS). Partial liver resection was performed and the histopathological result was neuroendocrine tumor. Therefore, the disease was diagnosed as liver metastatic malignant insulinoma.

Objective: To investigate the microbiological test, antibiotic sensitivity and surgical treatment of periprosthetic joint infection(PJI) cases in post total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients. Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional survey was conducted on 318 patients who underwent THA or TKA in 9 clinical centers in Beijing from January 2014 to December 2016.The data of microbiology, antibiotic sensitivity and surgical treatment were collected.The average age of patients was (62.3±13.1) years old (range: 21-86 years old), including 145 males and 173 females.The body mass index was (25.6±3.8) kg/m ² (range: 15.6-38.1 kg/m²). Results: In total, 318 patients had microorganisms detected by periprosthetic tissue culture or synovial fluid culture, 209 cases (65.7%) had Gram-positive bacteria, 29 cases (9.1%) had Gram-negative bacteria, 10 cases (3.1%) had fungi, 3 cases (0.9%) had non-tuberculous mycobacteria, 72 cases (22.6%) were negative, 69 cases (21.7%) had methicillin-resistant bacteria. The antibiotic sensitivity results showed that the overall resistance rate of penicillin, cefuroxime, amoxicillin+clavulanic acid was 79.9%, 69.9%, and 68.1%, respectively; meropenem, vancomycin, and linezolid resistance rate was 0. For the treatment methods of hip and knee PJI, two-stage revision surgery acounted for 72.9% (108/148) and 64.1% (109/170), respectively. One-stage revision surgery accounted for 21.6% (32/148) and 7.6% (13/170), and open debridement surgery accounted for 4.7%(7/148) and 26.4% (45/170). Conclusions Gram-positive bacteria was still the main pathogen of PJI.The methicillin-resistant bacteria and rare bacteria should be payed attention to. The Majority of hip and knee PJI cases were treated by two-stage revision surgery.

Objective To evaluate the biomechanical characteristics of 4 fixation methods (single reconstruction plate,dual reconstruction plates,single cannulated screw and dual cannulated screws) in the treatment of pubic symphysis disruption.Methods Miniature spiral CT scans were performed on the complete pelvis in 5 healthy volunteers.The primary two-dimensional CT scan data at Dicom format were imported into software Mimics 15.0 for three-dimensional reconstruction of bilateral hips and sacrums.The finite element model of skeletal pelvis was obtained by grid partitioning and assignment using software Abqus 6.13.Models of pubic symphysis disruption were simulated by cutting off the unilateral sacroiliac ligament,sacral spine ligament,sacral tuberosity ligament,pubic ligament and pubic arch.Four implants(single reconstruction plate,dual reconstruction plates,single cannulated screw and dual cannulated screws) were simulated and emplaced onto the models according to standard surgical procedures.Compressive and rotational loads were implemented in all models for finite element analysis.The biomechanical properties were recorded and analyzed,including construct stiffness,micromotion of the pubic symphysis and yon Misses stress.Results Under vertical load,the space of pubic symphysis disruption ＞ 25 mm.The vertical stiffness and rotational construct stiffness of the pelvis decreased significantly from 442.738 ±29.946 N/mm and 10.118 ± 1.432 N · m/Deg in the normal group to 14.754 ±0.876 N/mm and 0.328 ±0.119 N · m/Deg,respectively.Dual reconstruction plates and dual cannulated screws displayed the best vertical tensile strength;their construct stiffness achieved 117.647 ±9.193 N/mm and 131.443 ±4.348 N/mm,respectively.Under anti-rotation load,dual cannulated screws displayed the best performance because they rebuilt 68.6％ of the whole structural stiffness.For the local stability of the pubic symphysis,dual reconstruction plates showed a strong local anti-rotation capability and dual cannulated screws a good local anti-tensile capability.The displacement in the dual cannulated screws group was only-0.240 ±0.119 mm under vertical load while the angular displacement in the dual reconstruction plates group only 0.218°±0.182°.Single reconstruction plate endured the maximum yon Misses stress which was obviously concentrated.Conclusion Dual cannulated screws may have biomechanical advantages for treatment of pubic symphysis disruption.
