Purpose::Intramedullary nailing is the preferred internal fixation technique for the treatment of subtrochanteric fractures because of its biomechanical advantages. However, no definitive conclusion has been reached regarding whether combined cable cerclage is required during intramedullary nailing treatment. This study is performed to compare the clinical effects of intramedullary nailing with cerclage and non-cerclage wiring in the treatment of irreducible spiral subtrochanteric fractures.Methods::Patients with subtrochanteric fractures admitted to our center from January 2013 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were enrolled in the case-control study according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and divided into the non-cerclage group and the cerclage group. The patients' clinical data, including the operative time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, reoperation rate, fracture union time, and Harris hip score, were compared between these 2 groups. Categorical variables were compared using Chi-square or Fisher's exact test. Continuous variables with normal distribution were presented as mean ± standard deviation and analyzed with Student's t-test. Nonnormally distributed variables were expressed as median (Q 1, Q 3) and assessed using the Mann-Whitney test. A p < 0.05 was considered significant. Results::In total, 69 patients were included in the study (35 patients in the non-cerclage group and 34 patients in the cerclage group). The baseline data of the 2 groups were comparable. There were no significant difference in the length of hospital stay (z = -0.391, p = 0.696), operative time (z = -1.289, p = 0.197), or intraoperative blood loss (z = -1.321, p = 0.186). However, compared with non-cerclage group, the fracture union time was shorter (z = -5.587, p < 0.001), the rate of nonunion was lower (χ 2= 6.030, p = 0.03), the anatomical reduction rate was higher (χ 2= 5.449, p = 0.03), and the Harris hip score was higher (z =-2.99, p = 0.003) in the cerclage group, all with statistically significant differences. Conclusions::Intramedullary nailing combined with cable cerclage wiring is a safe and reliable technique for the treatment of irreducible subtrochanteric fractures. This technique can improve the reduction effect, increase the stability of fracture fixation, shorten the fracture union time, reduce the occurrence of nonunion, and contribute to the recovery of hip joint function.

Objective To reveal the characteristics of Tibetan human body composition in Gannan.Methods The body composition of 410 Tibetan adults(221 males and 189 females)in Gannan was measured by bioelectrical impedance method.The data were processed by SPSS 20.0 statistical software.Results Related analysis results showed that the total body muscle mass,estimated fat level and trunk muscle mass of the male decreased with age,while the percent body water,visceral fat level and percent trunk fat increased with age.The stature and left lower limb muscle mass of the female decreased with age,while body weight,percent body fat,body mass index,visceral fat level,percent right upper limb fat,right upper limb muscle mass,percent left upper limb,left upper limb muscle mass,percent right lower limb fat,percent left lower limb fat,left lower limb muscle mass and percent trunk fat increased with age.Analysis of single factor variance showed that there were statistically significant differences in the four indexes of male percent body water,visceral fat level,percent trunk fat and trunk muscle mass,while there were no statistically significant differences in the other 14 indexes among age groups.Females weight,stature,percent body fat,total body muscle mass,estimated fat level,body mass index,visceral fat level,percent right upper limb fat,right upper limb muscle mass,percent left upper limb fat,left upper limb muscle mass,percent right lower limb fat,percent left lower limb fat,left lower limb muscle mass,percent trunk fat,trunk muscle mass 16 index values were statistically significant differences between age groups,the remaining two index values were not statistically significant differences between age groups.The results of u test showed that the body weight,total body muscle mass,estimated fat level,percent body water,limb muscle mass and trunk muscle mass of males were higher than those of females,and percent body fat,limb fat rate,visceral fat rate and trunk fat rate of females were higher than those of males.According to the body mass index,Gannan Tibetan male and female were overweight;according to the percent body fat,Gannan Tibetan males were non-obesity and females were obesity.Conclusion The body mass index and overall fat content of Tibetan males and females in Gannan are relatively high among the 13 ethnic groups.

Objective To explore the common features of Chinese ethnic groups.Methods Eight body indexes of 62 ethnic groups in China were analyzed.Results The cluster analysis showed that 52 males and 59 females ethnic groups were grouped into the mixed group dominated by the northern ethnic group and the mixed group dominated by the southern ethnic group.Eight Han ethnic groups were grouped into each group,but no Han group was aggregated.The result of body index classification showed that the main body types of Chinese male population were long trunk,middle chest,wide shoulder,wide pelvis and middle leg.Middle body,wide chest,wide shoulder,wide pelvis and middle leg were the main body types of Chinese female population.This showed that the characteristics of Chinese ethnic groups had obvious consistency.The consistency of Chinese group features was related to its close origin.It should be said that Han nationality played an important role in the process of communication and integration of various ethnic groups in China.In the history of the Han nationality,there had been many large-scale population migration.The southern movement of the northern ethnic minorities into the northern Han and the southward movement of the northern Han into the south promoted the formation of the Southern Han,which made the southern Han and the northern Han had similar body features,and also promoted the southern ethnic minorities into the southern Han.In addition,the Han nationality who moved into minority areas also gradually integrated into minority areas.Conclusion There are obvious commonalities in Chinese ethnic groups.

Objective To explore the commonalities and differences of the body characteristics of different language groups in China.Methods The body index data of 65 343 adults(29 667 males and 35 676 females)from 8 language groups in China were measured.Principal component analysis was used to explore the characteristics of human body development in China.Results Among the eight language groups in China,the three ethnic groups of the Altai languages have the largest body weight,large trunk circumference,high stature,long lower limbs,and long trunk.The body height,length,weight and trunk circumference of the Han ethnic group were slightly inferior to those of the Altaic ethnic group.The Tibetan-Burmese ethnic group belongs to the group with higher body height,length,weight and trunk circumference in the southern ethnic group.In contrast,the Zhuang-Dong ethnic group,the Miao-Yao ethnic group and the South Asian ethnic group in the south had smaller trunk circumference,lighter weight,shorter stature,shorter lower limbs and shorter trunk.Conclusion The body characteristics of the northern(or southern)language groups are relatively close,which reflects the commonality of the characteristics of the Chinese language groups.The differences in the characteristics of Chinese language groups are mainly reflected in the fact that the index values of the three language groups in the north are significantly larger than those of the four language groups in the south.Genetic factors,geographical environment factors and social development factors all affect the body characteristics of Chinese language ethnic group.

Osteoporosis is an important cause of internal fixation loosening after spinal surgery.Cement-augmented pedicle screw instru-mentation(CAPSI)technique is the most widely used technique in clinical practice to improve the stability of pedicle screw,mainly applied in osteoporosis and revision surgery,which included conventional solid pedicles crews and fenestrated/cannulated pedicle screws technique.CAPSI technique may cause cement leakage and pulmonary embolism,and there is no consensus on its indications or technical points.Therefore,this article reviews the research progress of CAPSI,in order to provide relevant reference for clinical practice.

Although it has become a consensus in the field of colorectal surgery to perform radical tumor treatment and functional protection under the minimally invasive concept, there exist many controversies during clinical practice, including the concept of embryonic development of abdominal organs and membrane anatomy, the principle of membrane anatomy related to right hemicolectomy, D3 resection, and identification of the inner boundary. In this paper, we analyzed recently reported literature with high-level evidence and clinical data from the author's hospital to recognize and review the membrane anatomy-based laparoscopic assisted right hemicolectomy for right colon cancer, emphasizing the importance of priority of surgical dissection planes, vascular orientation, and full understanding of the fascial space, and proposing that the surgical planes should be dissected in the parietal-prerenal fascial space, and the incision should be 1 cm from the descending and horizontal part of the duodenum. The surgery should be performed according to a standard procedure with strict quality control. To identify the resection range of D3 dissection, it is necessary to establish a clinical, imaging, and pathological evaluation model for multiple factors or to apply indocyanine green and nano-carbon lymphatic tracer intraoperatively to guide precise lymph node dissection. We expect more high-level evidence of evidence-based medicine to prove the inner boundary of laparoscopic assisted radical right colectomy and a more rigorous consensus to be established.

Objective To explore the law of changes in the appearance of Chinese Mongolians with age. Methods Totally 24 human indexes of head and face from 4410 cases (1916 males and 2494 females) and 13 Mongolian ethnic groups were measured, and 12 craniofacial indexes were calculated. Correlation analysis was used to study the changes of craniofacial indexes and indexes with age. The method of analysis of variance was used to study whether the differences between the index values and index values of the three age groups were statistically significant. Results With the increase of age, the distance between the two mandibular angles became wider, the mouth widened, the width, height and length of the nose increased, the skin of the upper lip increased, the length and width of the ear increased, the width of the head, forehead, face, mastoid and tragus narrowed, the width of the eyes narrowed, the upper and lower lips thinned, the circumference of the head and the height of the head decreased, and the length of the head did not change significantly. With the increase of age, the Mongolian face becomes narrower and longer, the proportion of the height of the face in the whole head high school increases, the nose becomes wider, and the head appears to be relatively longer, lower and wider. The distance between the left and right frontotemporal points is relatively closer, the mouth cleft appears more slender, and the ratio of length to width of the ear does not change much. Conclusion With the increase of age, the facial features of Mongolian have changed.

Objective: To analyze the clinical epidemiological characteristics including composition of pathogens , clinical characteristics, and disease prognosis acute bacterial meningitis (ABM) in Chinese children. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical and laboratory data of 1 610 children <15 years of age with ABM in 33 tertiary hospitals in China from January 2019 to December 2020. Patients were divided into different groups according to age,<28 days group, 28 days to <3 months group, 3 months to <1 year group, 1-<5 years of age group, 5-<15 years of age group; etiology confirmed group and clinically diagnosed group according to etiology diagnosis. Non-numeric variables were analyzed with the Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test, while non-normal distrituction numeric variables were compared with nonparametric test. Results: Among 1 610 children with ABM, 955 were male and 650 were female (5 cases were not provided with gender information), and the age of onset was 1.5 (0.5, 5.5) months. There were 588 cases age from <28 days, 462 cases age from 28 days to <3 months, 302 cases age from 3 months to <1 year of age group, 156 cases in the 1-<5 years of age and 101 cases in the 5-<15 years of age. The detection rates were 38.8% (95/245) and 31.5% (70/222) of Escherichia coli and 27.8% (68/245) and 35.1% (78/222) of Streptococcus agalactiae in infants younger than 28 days of age and 28 days to 3 months of age; the detection rates of Streptococcus pneumonia, Escherichia coli, and Streptococcus agalactiae were 34.3% (61/178), 14.0% (25/178) and 13.5% (24/178) in the 3 months of age to <1 year of age group; the dominant pathogens were Streptococcus pneumoniae and the detection rate were 67.9% (74/109) and 44.4% (16/36) in the 1-<5 years of age and 5-<15 years of age . There were 9.7% (19/195) strains of Escherichia coli producing ultra-broad-spectrum β-lactamases. The positive rates of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) culture and blood culture were 32.2% (515/1 598) and 25.0% (400/1 598), while 38.2% (126/330)and 25.3% (21/83) in CSF metagenomics next generation sequencing and Streptococcus pneumoniae antigen detection. There were 4.3% (32/790) cases of which CSF white blood cell counts were normal in etiology confirmed group. Among 1 610 children with ABM, main intracranial imaging complications were subdural effusion and (or) empyema in 349 cases (21.7%), hydrocephalus in 233 cases (14.5%), brain abscess in 178 cases (11.1%), and other cerebrovascular diseases, including encephalomalacia, cerebral infarction, and encephalatrophy, in 174 cases (10.8%). Among the 166 cases (10.3%) with unfavorable outcome, 32 cases (2.0%) died among whom 24 cases died before 1 year of age, and 37 cases (2.3%) had recurrence among whom 25 cases had recurrence within 3 weeks. The incidences of subdural effusion and (or) empyema, brain abscess and ependymitis in the etiology confirmed group were significantly higher than those in the clinically diagnosed group (26.2% (207/790) vs. 17.3% (142/820), 13.0% (103/790) vs. 9.1% (75/820), 4.6% (36/790) vs. 2.7% (22/820), χ²=18.71, 6.20, 4.07, all P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the unfavorable outcomes, mortility, and recurrence between these 2 groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions: The onset age of ABM in children is usually within 1 year of age, especially <3 months. The common pathogens in infants <3 months of age are Escherichia coli and Streptococcus agalactiae, and the dominant pathogen in infant ≥3 months is Streptococcus pneumoniae. Subdural effusion and (or) empyema and hydrocephalus are common complications. ABM should not be excluded even if CSF white blood cell counts is within normal range. Standardized bacteriological examination should be paid more attention to increase the pathogenic detection rate. Non-culture CSF detection methods may facilitate the pathogenic diagnosis.
