OBJECTIVE:Knee adduction moment and knee adduction angular impulse enlargement is the main biomechanical risk factor of knee osteoarthritis.According to the survey,a change in the foot progression angle could effectively change the motion mode of patients with knee osteoarthritis.However,the impact of toe-in and toe-out on knee adduction moment and knee adduction angular impulse in young and elderly patients did not reach a consensus.Therefore,this study comprehensively discussed the effect of foot progression angle on knee adduction moment and knee adduction angular impulse in different populations through meta-analysis and provided a reference for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. METHODS:By June 2022,searches were conducted on Web of Science,EBSCO,PubMed and CNKI databases using"foot progression angle,knee adduction moment,knee adduction angular impulse,gait"as Chinese and English search terms.Self-controlled randomized controlled studies analyzing the effects of toe-in and toe-out on knee adduction moment bimodality and knee adduction angular impulse were included.The cochrane bias risk assessment tool was utilized to make a quality evaluation of the literature.Stata 15.1 software was used for subgroup analysis to determine the effect of foot progression angle on knee adduction moment and knee adduction angular impulse.Meta-regression analysis was used to further determine characteristics of outcome indicators(knee adduction moment,knee adduction angular impulse)changing with foot progression angle. RESULTS:(1)A total of 15 self-control trials and 2 randomized controlled trials(455 subjects)were included in the meta-analysis.All of the included articles were of medium to high quality.(2)The meta-analysis results showed that the toe-in gait could reduce the first peak of knee adduction moment(SMD=-0.380,95%CI:-0.710 to-0.060,P=0.022)and knee adduction angular impulse(SMD=-1.470,95%CI:-2.160 to-0.770,P<0.001)in young patients.The toe-out gait reduced the second peak of knee adduction moment(SMD=-0.720,95%CI:-1.010 to-1.440,P<0.001)in young patients.In addition,toe-in gait could reduce the first peak of knee adduction moment in elder patients(SMD=-0.550,95%CI:-0.800 to-0.300,P<0.001),but increase the second peak knee adduction moment of elderly(SMD=0.280,95%CI:-0.010 to 0.560,P=0.047).The toe-out gait could decrease the second peak knee adduction moment in this population(SMD=-0.510,95%CI:-0.830 to-0.190,P=0.002).(3)Meta-regression showed that the greater the toe-out in elderly patients,the lower the second peak knee adduction moment. CONCLUSION:(1)Toe-in reduced the first peak knee adduction moment and knee adduction angular impulse in young knee osteoarthritis patients aged 18 to 34 years.Since knee adduction moment and knee adduction angular impulse were associated with medial knee loading and knee osteoarthritis incidence,toe-in gait intervention may be a suitable rehabilitation strategy for young patients.(2)Toe-in increased the second peak of knee adduction moment in older knee osteoarthritis patients over 60 years of age,which may exacerbate knee osteoarthritis in this population.However,the second peak of knee adduction moment during walking in this population decreases as the toe-out increases,contributing to a reduction in medial knee loading,suggesting that older patients may consider using toe-out gait during walking.

YE Tianshi possessed a comprehensive theoretical system and extensive therapeutic experience in the treatment of warm disease caused by latent pathogenic qi,all of which was recorded in his medical records.YE Tianshi elucidated the characteristics of the pathogenesis of the three types of warm disease caused by latent pathogenic qi,namely spring warmth,summer heat,and winter warmth,and explained the pathogenesis of latent pathogenic qi from the perspective of vital qi and pathogen,and pointed out that the weakness of vital qi and the pathogenic qi led to the concealment of pathogenic qi,and that the struggle between vital qi and pathogen led to the onset of latent pathogenic qi.In the treatment,YE Tianshi emphasized the importance of clearly identifying the level of qi and blood in the internal organs where the latent pathogenic qi is located,and focused on the syndrome differentiation of weifen,qifen,yingfen,and xuefen,and combined with the syndrome differentiation of zang-fu viscera,the principle and method of treatment and medication law of warm disease caused by latent pathogenic qi were formulated.Although warm disease caused by latent pathogenic qi is a heat syndrome,YE Tianshi also attached importance to the deficiency and excess of yang qi,pointed out that latent pathogenic qi had the possibility of transforming into cold syndrome,and discussed the rules of medication for cold latent pathogenic qi in the spleen,kidney,and eight extraordinary meridians.YE Tianshi's treatment of warm disease caused by latent pathogenic qi not only emphasizes the nourishment of yin,but also emphasizes clearing qi and blood,and the circulation of qi in order to clear and penetrate the evil qi;he also pays attention to the sanjiao transmission of the latent pathogenic evil.The study of the law of YE Tianshi's differentiation and treatment of warm disease caused by latent pathogenic qi may provide ideas for the clinical treatment of COVID-19,as well as diseases in various disciplines.

Objective To analyze the mortality and its changing trend, and composition and order of causes of death of residents in Mengzi City, and to provide a basis for further disease prevention and control. Methods The death causes surveillance data from 2018 to 2021 were derived from the all-cause-of-death surveillance system in Mengzi City. A retrospective analysis was performed on the mortality rate, life expectancy, life expectancy eliminating causes of death, and life loss. The annual percentage change (APC) was analyzed by the Joinpoint regression model to describe changes in mortality trends. Results The overall crude mortality rate was 633.88/100,000. The age-adjusted mortality was 866.87/100,000. There was a significant downward trend in the crude and standardized mortality (APC=-1.73% , APC=-5.96% , P<0.05). Deaths due to chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) accounted for 76.44% of the total deaths. The top 5 causes of death of the residents were cerebrovascular diseases (140.38/100 000), heart diseases (104.24/100 000), malignant neoplasms (92.75/100 000), injuries (79.37/100 000), and respiratory diseases (63.17/100 000) in order, accounting for 75.71% of all causes of death. Life expectancy was 75.67 years, 72.32 years and 79.49 years in the whole-population, males and females, respectively. The potential life expectancy loss due to injury, malignant tumor and cerebrovascular disease accounted for 65.45% of all causes of death. Conclusion Chronic non-communicable diseases are the focus of prevention and control work in Mengzi City. Particular attention should be paid to the damage to health and loss of life caused by injuries, malignancies and cerebrovascular diseases.

【Objective】 To analyze the association of overweight and obesity with elevated blood pressure(BP) among children and adolescents in Mengzi City, in order to provide reference for making effective interventions. 【Methods】 A total of 30 classes of students in 14 schools were selected into this study by a stratified random cluster sampling method from October 2020 to September 2021. The paticipants completed a questionnaire survey, and had their height, weight and BP measured. Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the association of overweight and obesity with elevated BP. 【Results】 A total of 4 015 children and adolescents aged 7 - 17 years were involved in the study. The detection rate of overweight, obesity and elevated BP was 12.53%, 10.01% and 12.38%, respectively. The detection rate of elevated BP was 9.96%, 19.48% and 25.62% in normal weight, overweight and obese groups, respectively. The risk of elevated BP in the overweight and obese groups was 2.190 times(95%CI: 1.696 - 2.926, P<0.001) and 3.243 times(95%CI: 2.501 - 4.204, P<0.001) as high as that in normal weight groups. The dietary and exercise behaviors of 1 604 adolescents were analyzed, it was found that the detection rate of obesity was significntly higher in non-boarding students(15.09%) and those who consumed fresh fruits at least once a day(13.49%)(χ2=18.012, 7.225, P<0.05), the detection rate of elevated BP was significantly higher in among those who did not consume sugary beverages(16.88%), and performed moderate-to-high intensity physical exercise of 60 minutes or more ≤ 2 days per week(16.88%)(χ2=9.403, 14.921,P<0.01). 【Conclusions】 The risk of developing hypertension increases with the high prevalence of overweight and obesity and is strongly associated with multiple factors. Therefore, it is essential to conduct effective weight control and behavioral lifestyle interventions among children and adolescents.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics and first aid measures of children with drowning,and to provide scientific basis for the treatment and prevention of drowning in children.Methods:The clinical data of drowning children admitted to the Children's Medical Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan Normal University(Hunan Provincial People's Hospital)from January 2011 to December 2021 were retrospectively summarized. Baseline characteristics,prehospital emergency care and prognosis of the included children were analyzed.According to the time span, drowning children were divided into two stages, the first stage (2011-2016) and the second stage (2017-2021). According to cerebral performance category assessment scale,drowning children with cardiac arrest were divided into two groups: a group with good neurological prognosis and a group with poor neurological prognosis. The baseline characteristics,pre-hospital emergency care, and prognosis of drowning children during different periods and with different prognosis were analyzed.Results:A total of 53 children were enrolled during the study period,with 24 cases in the first phase(2011-2016)and 29 cases in the second phase(2017-2021).Boys accounted for 73.6%(39/53)of the cases, the age ranged from 1 month and 24 days to 14 years old,with 1-4 years old being the most common,accounting for 58.5%(31/53), and the season in which drowning occurred was more common in the summer(39.6%, 21/53).Six cases (11.3%) had significant neurological sequelae, and the mortality rate was 3.8%(2/53).There was a decrease in the proportion of drowning with water control in the second stage compared to the first stage(37.5% vs. 13.79%, P=0.046).Thirty-two(60.4%)children experienced on-site cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) after drowning,with 24 cases in the group with good neurological prognosis and 8 cases in the group with poor neurological prognosis.Children in the poor neurological prognosis group required CPR for a long duration [10.00(1.50, 25.00)min],had lower body temperature,Glasgow Coma Score,pH and higher blood glucose levels on admission(all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Drowning is most common in preschool children,common in boys,and drowning prevention measures for young children deserve focused attention. Children found to be in cardiac arrest at the time of drowning have a long duration of drowning and CPR,which predicts a poor neurological prognosis,and timely and effective on-site CPR is the key to reducing the drowning rate.

Objective To investigate the effect of trunk control on the biomechanical characteristics of lower limb movements during Asian squats(AS)and Western squats(WS)in young adults to provide empirical support for the application and promotion of deep squat training.Methods Twenty-four healthy young male collegiate students performed AS and WS with and without bar control,and their lower limb kinematic and kinetic characteristics were collected using an infrared light-point motion capture system and a three-dimensional(3D)dynamometer.The 3D angles of the lower limbs were obtained using Cortex-642.6.2 software,based on the calculation of Euler angles,and the 3D moments were obtained by applying the inverse dynamics method.The effects of trunk control and deep squatting posture on the lower limb kinematic characteristics were examined using a two-factor analysis of variance with a 2×2 repeated design.Results There was no significant interaction between trunk control and the deep squatting posture for either kinematic or kinetic parameters(P>0.05).The WS group had a large knee flexion angle,peak patellofemoral contact force,and ratio of peak hip and knee extension moments,and small ankle dorsiflexion and hip flexion angles(P<0.05).The deep squat with a bar had a large ankle dorsiflexion angle,peak patellofemoral contact force,and hip flexion angle as well as a small knee flexion angle and ratio of peak hip and knee extension moments(P<0.05).Conclusions WS is helpful for training hip extension muscle groups,whereas AS is helpful for training knee extension muscle strength.The peak patellofemoral joint contact force of the WS is significantly greater than that of the AS;therefore,it is recommended that patients with patellofemoral joint pain use the AS.A squat with a bar can compensate for the body's balance;thus,people with limited ankle dorsiflexion range of motion or anterior tibial muscle weakness may consider trunk control training,such as a deep squat with a bar.This may help improve lower limb stability during squats.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of the impaction of posterior wall on the prognosis following open reduction and internal fixation for fractures of acetabular posterior wall.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the data from the 83 patients with fracture of acetabular posterior wall who had been consecutively treated by open reduction and internal fixation at Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from January 2017 to December 2020. The patients were divided into 2 groups based on involvement of posterior wall impaction. In the impaction group of 33 cases, there were 26 males and 7 females with an age of (47.4±11.6) years; in the non-impaction group of 50 cases, there were 43 males and 7 females with an age of (41.3±12.0) years. The quality of postoperative fracture reduction, the function of the affected hip at the last follow-up, and the complication rate during follow-up were compared between the 2 groups. Multifactorial binary logistic regression and age subgroups were used to analyze the effects of posterior wall impaction on functional outcomes.Results:The age, rate of associated injuries in other body parts, and rate of posterior wall comminution in the impaction group were significantly higher than those in the non-impaction group ( P<0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference in other general data of patients between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). All patients were followed up for (44.5±13.3) months after surgery. The rate of anatomical reduction in the non-impaction group (96.0%, 48/50) was significantly higher than that in the impaction group (57.6%, 19/33) ( P<0.05), and the good and excellent rate by the modified Merle d'Aubigné & Postel scale at the last follow-up in the non-impaction group (84.0%, 42/50) was significantly higher than that in the impaction group (51.5%, 17/33) ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). After adjusting for age and gender, the difference in hip function was still significantly different between the 2 groups ( OR=0.23, 95% CI: 0.06 to 0.79, P=0.020). The effect of posterior wall impaction on functional outcomes was statistically significant in patients aged ≥50 years ( P=0.008), whereas the difference was not statistically significant in patients aged <50 years ( P=0.194). Conclusions:Compared with non-impaction ones, acetabular fractures of posterior wall impaction tend to lead to poorer quality of reduction, which in turn affects the postoperative recovery of hip joint function. The impact of impaction fractures on functional recovery is more significant in patients aged 50 years and above.
