OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the early efficacy of local application of tranexamic acid on the osteotomy surface during hallux valgus surgery in reducing postoperative occult blood loss and thus postoperative swelling. METHODS: The data of 40 cases with hallux valgus osteotomy admitted to the Department of Foot and Ankle Surgery of Jishuitan Hospital from July 11, 2022 to October 8, 2022, including 5 males and 35 females were retrospectively analyzed. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 32 cases were finally divided into 16 cases in the observation group (application of tranexamic acid) and 16 cases in the control group (no application of tranexamic acid). The observation group was paired with the control group one by one in accordance with the operation style, and the change in the anterior and posterior diameter of the first metatarsal head, the change in the circumferential diameter of the foot, the length of the first metatarsal midline and the length of the plumbline of the foot measured by postoperative CT were compared between the two groups before and after surgery, in order to evaluate the degree of swelling around the incision after the surgery. The first metatarsal midline and plumb line were measured by reference to the two auxiliary lines that intersect the soft tissue border in the sesamoid bone position to measure the rotation angle of the first metatarsal. A total of three clinicians completed the measurements of these two line segments and interobserver comparisons were performed. RESULTS: By interobserver comparison, the consistency of the length of the midline of the first metatarsal and the plumbline measured by CT was high and could be considered a reliable measurement. After the paired t-test, there was no statistical difference in the amount of changes in the anteroposterior diameter of the first metatarsal before and after surgery between the observation and control groups (P>0.05), and the amount of changes in the circumferential diameter of the foot before and after surgery was smaller in the observation group than in the control group, which was statistically significant (P < 0.05); the length of the midline of the first metatarsal and the plumbline of the foot measured by CT after surgery was smaller in the observation group than in the control group, which was statistically significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Local application of tranexamic acid on the osteotomy surface during hallux valgus osteotomy can relieve postoperative swelling to some extent, which may be related to the fact that tranexamic acid reduces occult blood loss in the postoperative period.

Objective:To analyze the clinical data of patients with end-stage ankle and hindfoot ar-thropathy who underwent tibiotalocalcaneal(TTC)arthrodesis by the same surgeon,explore the short-and mid-term clinical results,complications and functional improvement,and discuss the clinical progno-sis and precautions of TTC arthrodesis.Methods:Retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 40 patients who underwent TTC arthrodesis by the same surgeon from March 2011 to December 2020.In this study,23 males and 17 females were included,with an average age of(49.1±16.0)years.All the patients underwent unilateral surgery.The clinical characteristics,imaging manifestations,main diagno-sis and specific surgical techniques of the patients were recorded.The clinical outcomes were evaluated by comparison of the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society(AOFAS)ankle-hindfoot score and visual analogue scale(VAS)between pre-operation and at the last follow-up.The fusion healing time,symptom improvement(significant improvement,certain improvement,no improvement or deterioration)and postoperative complications were also recorded.Results:The median follow-up time was 38.0(26.3,58.8)months.The preoperative VAS score was 6.0(4.0,7.0),and the AOFAS score was 33.0(25.3,47.3).At the last follow-up,the median VAS score was 0(0,3.0),and the AOFAS score was 80.0(59.0,84.0).All the significantly improved compared with their preoperative corre-sponding values(P＜0.05).There was no wound necrosis or infection in the patients.One patient suf-fered from subtalar joint nonunion,which was syphilitic Charcot arthropathy.The median bony healing time of other patients was 15.0(12.0,20.0)weeks.Among the included patients,there were 25 cases with significant improvement in symptom compared with that preoperative,8 cases with certain improve-ment,4 cases with no improvement,and 3 cases with worse symptoms than that before operation.Con-clusion:TTC arthrodesis is a reliable method for the treatment of the end-stage ankle and hindfoot ar-thropathy.The function of most patients was improved postoperatively,with little impact on daily life.The causes of poor prognosis included toe stiffness,stress concentration in adjacent knee joints,nonunion and pain of unknown causes.

Objective:To study influence of cardiac rehabilitation exercise combined nutritional intervention on pa-tients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI)after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods:A total of 100 AMI patients treated in our hospital were randomly and equally divided into routine nursing group and combined intervention group(received cardiac rehabilitation exercise combined nutritional intervention mode based on routine nursing group)according to random number table method.Both groups were intervened for two months.General clinical data,anaerobic threshold(AT),maximal oxygen uptake(VO2peak),LVEF,6min walking distance(6MWD),scores of China questionnaire of quality of life in patients with cardiovascular diseases(CQQC)and gen-eral self-efficacy scale(GSES)before and after intervention and incidence rate of cardiovascular adverse events within three months were compared between two groups.Results:Compared with routine nursing group,after inter-vention,there were significant rise in AT[(10.14±2.81)ml·kg-1·min-1 vs.(14.85±3.80)ml·kg-1· min-1],VO2peak[(1.23±0.40)ml·kg-1·min-1 vs.(2.44±0.46)ml·kg-1·min-1],LVEF[(48.96± 3.73)％vs.(55.98±4.31)％],6MWD[(300.72±33.71)m vs.(340.47±31.86)m],scores of CQQC[(53.59 ±6.28)scores vs.(72.93±7.15)scores]and GSES[(21.21±2.39)scores vs.(32.28±5.44)scores]in com-bined intervention group(P=0.001 all).Incidence rate of cardiovascular adverse events in combine intervention group within three months was significantly lower than that of routine nursing group(10.0％vs.48.0％,P=0.001).Conclusion:Cardiac rehabilitation exercise combined nutritional intervention can observably improve quality of life,cardiopulmonary function,enhance self-efficacy and reduce incidence rate of adverse cardiovascular events in patients with acute myocardial infarction after percutaneous coronary intervention.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of recombinant human anti-severe acute respiratory syn-drome coronavirus 2(anti-SARS-CoV-2)monoclonal antibody injection(F61 injection)in the treatment of patients with coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)combined with renal damage.Methods Patients with COVID-19 and renal damage who visited the PLA General Hospital from January to February 2023 were selected.Subjects were randomly divided into two groups.Control group was treated with conventional anti-COVID-19 therapy,while trial group was treated with conventional anti-COVID-19 therapy combined with F61 injection.A 15-day follow-up was conducted after drug administration.Clinical symptoms,laboratory tests,electrocardiogram,and chest CT of pa-tients were performed to analyze the efficacy and safety of F61 injection.Results Twelve subjects(7 in trial group and 5 in control group)were included in study.Neither group had any clinical progression or death cases.The ave-rage time for negative conversion of nucleic acid of SARS-CoV-2 in control group and trial group were 3.2 days and 1.57 days(P=0.046),respectively.The scores of COVID-19 related target symptom in the trial group on the 3rd and 5th day after medication were both lower than those of the control group(both P＜0.05).According to the clinical staging and World Health Organization 10-point graded disease progression scale,both groups of subjects improved but didn't show statistical differences(P＞0.05).For safety,trial group didn't present any infusion-re-lated adverse event.Subjects in both groups demonstrated varying degrees of elevated blood glucose,elevated urine glucose,elevated urobilinogen,positive urine casts,and cardiac arrhythmia,but the differences were not statistica-lly significant(all P＞0.05).Conclusion F61 injection has initially demonstrated safety and clinical benefit in trea-ting patients with COVID-19 combined with renal damage.As the domestically produced drug,it has good clinical accessibility and may provide more options for clinical practice.

Objective:To study the clinical safety and validity of retrograde new endoscopic field of vision in miniature pigs.Methods:6 live miniature pigs were selected as study subjects,En-doscopic Retrograde New View(ERNV)was selected.The performance,image quality and intraoper-ative and postoperative complications were evaluated.To evaluate whether all the experimental ani-mals could complete the relevant endoscopy.Verify ERNV's operating performance,including whether the duodenoscope can enter the biliary tract smoothly,and made sure whether the injection,suction,and instrument channels were unobstructed.Choledochoscope image clarity,color resolu-tion,image deformation and distortion,accurate evaluation of lumen conditions and clear observation of mucosal surface conditions were analyzed.Whether there were operant injuries such as bleeding and perforation,as well as adverse events such as respiratory depression and cardiac arrest.The sur-vival status and adverse reactions of all pigs were observed.Results:The choledochoscope was successfully inserted into the bile duct of 6 miniature pigs.The product had good operation perfor-mance and could enter the bile duct through the duodenoscope smoothly.The injection,suction and instrument channels were relatively smooth.In addition,the endoscopic images are clear,with better color resolution,and without image deformation and distortion,which can realize accurate evaluation of the conditions in the lumen and observe the mucosal surface conditions more clearly.No bile duct stenosis or dilatation occurred in all miniature pigs,and the bile duct mucosa was smooth,without hyperemia and edema,and no abnormal thickening or bending of mucous vessels.During the exami-nation,there were no operational injuries such as bleeding and perforation,and no adverse events such as respiratory depression and cardiac arrest occurred.The vital signs of all miniature pigs tended to be stable after operation,and the survival state was good,and there were no complications such as cholangitis,bleeding and perforation.Conclusion:ERNV has good clinical safety and efficacy,ex-cellent operation performance and excellent image quality,and is worthy of clinical application.

Objective:To investigate the effect of Hounsfield Units (HU) at the upper instrumented vertebra (UIV) on postoperative proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) after pelvic fixation with second sacral alar-iliac (S 2AI) screws in patients with degenerative spinal deformity. Methods:A total of 66 patients with degenerative spinal deformity who underwent pelvic fixation with S 2AI screws from August 2015 to April 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. The cohort included 4 males and 62 females, aged 61.9±7.3 years (range, 43-78 years), with a follow-up period of 18.4±14.3 months (range, 6-60 months). The prevalence of PJK was 26%. Patients were divided into two groups based on the occurrence of PJK during postoperative follow-up: the PJK group (17 cases) and the non-PJK group (49 cases). HU measurements were taken at the UIV, the vertebral body cephalad to the UIV (UIV+1), and the L 3 and L 4 vertebral bodies. The following sagittal radiographic parameters were measured: thoracic kyphosis (TK), lumbar lordosis (LL), sacral slope (SS), pelvic tilt (PT), pelvic incidence (PI), PI minus LL (PI-LL), and sagittal vertical axis (SVA) at preoperative, postoperative, and final follow-up. General information and HU values of the two groups were compared, and Pearson correlation analysis was performed on HU values, bone mineral density (BMD), and T scores. Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the risk factors for PJK. Results:The HU values of L 3 and L 4 were significantly positively correlated with the BMD and T scores respectively ( r=0.530, P<0.001; r=0.537, P<0.001). Age, gender, follow-up time, fixation levels, bone mineral density (BMD) and T-score were not significantly different between PJK and non-PJK group. The average HU values of UIV and UIV+1 in PJK group was 104.3±32.9, whlie the average HU values of UIV and UIV+1 in non-PJK group was 133.7±29.5. The difference of HU between the two groups was statistically significant ( t=3.441, P=0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that average HU values of UIV and UIV+1 [ OR=0.960, 95% CI(0.933, 0.987), P=0.004] and changes of lumbar lordosis [ OR=1.049, 95% CI(1.007, 1.092), P=0.023] were independent risk factors for PJK, with an optimal cutoff obtained by ROC that 106 for average HU values of UIV and UIV+1 and 22.5° for changes of LL. Conclusion:The average HU values of UIV and UIV+1 < 106 and changes of lumbar lordosis > 22.5° are independent risk factors for PJK after pelvic fixation with second sacralalar-iliac in patients with degenerative spinal deformity.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
