Objective:To explore the safety and efficacy of intraosseous regional administration (IORA) of vancomycin for preventing infection in primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods:A total of 124 patients with knee osteoarthritis undergoing TKA between February 2024 and May 2024 at nine hospitals were enrolled. Preoperative infection prophylaxis involved either IORA (0.5 g vancomycin administered via intraosseous regional infusion before incision) or intravenous infusion (1 g vancomycin via peripheral vein). The IORA group included 15 males and 47 females with a median age of 66.5 years (range, 60.0-70.0 years), while the intravenous group included 14 males and 48 females with a median age of 66.0 years (range, 61.8-70.3 years) years. Intraoperative samples were collected including fat and synovium tissues after incision, before prosthesis placement, and after tourniquet release; distal femoral cancellous bone during femoral osteotomy; proximal tibial cancellous bone during tibial osteotomy; proximal intercondylar cancellous bone before prosthesis placement; and peripheral blood from non-infused arms at surgery initiation and after tourniquet release. Vancomycin concentrations were measured using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Vital sign changes were recorded from admission to 5~10 minutes post-IORA (IORA group) or post-incision (intravenous group). Follow-ups were conducted on postoperative day 1 and 3, and at 1 and 3 months, to document complications including IORA-related adverse events, periprosthetic joint infections, surgical site infections, red man syndrome, acute kidney injury, deep vein thrombosis and so on.Results:Vancomycin concentrations in bone, fat, and synovial tissue samples were significantly higher in the IORA group than in the intravenous group ( P<0.05), while vancomycin concentrations in blood samples were significantly lower in the IORA group than in the intravenous group ( P<0.05). Only 7.3%(41/558) of tissue samples in the IORA group had vancomycin concentrations below 2.0 μg/g (the minimum inhibitory concentration of vancomycin against coagulase-negative staphylococcus), compared to 59.3%(331/558) in the intravenous group (χ 2=11.285, P<0.001). In the intravenous group, 16.9%(21/124) of blood samples had vancomycin concentrations exceeding 15.0 mg/L (the threshold associated with a significantly increased risk of nephrotoxicity), while all concentrations in the IORA group were below this threshold, the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=22.943, P<0.001). There were no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05) in vital signs changes before and after vancomycin administration between the two groups. Two patients in the intravenous group experienced incision exudate, while no other related complications occurred in either group. Conclusions:Compared to the traditional intravenous infusion of 1 g vancomycin, intraosseous injection of a low dose (0.5 g) of vancomycin achieves higher local tissue concentrations in the knee joint with a lower incidence of adverse reactions and is safe for infection prophylaxis. Despite guidelines not recommending the routine use of vancomycin for preventing infection after primary TKA, intraosseous injection of 0.5 g vancomycin may be considered intraoperatively for primary TKA in the following scenarios: patients in medical institutions with a high prevalence of methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections, patients with potential preoperative MRSA colonization, or patients with cephalosporin allergy.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of follicular lymphoma (FL) patients with different primary sites using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database.Methods:Clinical data of 7167 patients with early-stage FL (stage I-II) from the SEER database between 2000 and 2015 were respectively analyzed. Primary sites were divided into intranodal and extranodal types. Intranodal primary sites included supradiaphragmatic lymph nodes (LN), subphrenic lymph nodes and Waldeyer's ring. Extranodal primary sites consisted of skin, gastrointestinal tract, duodenum, head and neck, other sites. Prognostic factors and overall survival (OS) in patients with different primary sites were analyzed. OS rate was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier method and survival difference between primary sites was compared with log-rank test. Inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) and multi-variable analysis were applied to adjust for confounding factors. Multivariate Cox regression analysis of influencing factors of OS was performed.Results:The median age was 63 years old, with the median follow-up time of 63 months. There was no difference in prognosis among the intranodal groups or between the intranodal and extranodal groups. The 10-year OS rates of the supradiaphragmatic lymph LN ( n=2146), subdiaphragmatic LN ( n=2811), and the Waldeyer's ring ( n=151) groups were 70.7%, 69.9% and 73.4%, respectively ( P=0.422 for infradiaphragmatic LN vs. supradiaphragmatic LN, P=1.000 for Waldeyer's ring vs. supradiaphragmatic LN), and 70.3% and 68.9% for intranodal ( n=5108) and extranodal ( n=2059), respectively. There was no significant difference in OS between the groups ( P=0.581) after IPTW adjustment. The most common primary sites in extranodal disease were skin, gastrointestinal tract, head and neck, and duodenum. The 10-year OS for skin, gastrointestinal tract, and cutaneous was 74.2%, 74.7%, and 87.3%, respectively, significantly higher than 55.6% for other sites (duodenum vs. others sites, gastrointestinal vs. others sites, skin vs. others sites: all P<0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that difference in OS was not significant among the intranodal groups or between the intranodal and extranodal groups. However, different extranodal primary site was an independent prognostic factor for OS. Conclusions:Early FL patients with supradiaphragmatic LN, subdiaphragmatic LN and Waldeyer's ring, and between the intranodal and extranodal primary sites obtain similar prognosis. However, early-stage FL patients with different extranodal primary sites have prognostic differences. The prognosis of primary skin, gastrointestinal tract and duodenum is significantly better than that of other extranodal primary sites.

Objective:To explore the effect of Shenxianling granules on the pharmacokinetics of ondansetron. Methods:A method for detecting the plasma concentration of ondansetron using highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was established. The reliability of the method was validated through specificity, linear relationship, precision, stability, repeated experiments, and sample recovery rate testing. Thirty six healthy male New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 2 groups, with 18 rabbits in each group. Rabbits in the single ondansetron group (single drug group) received intravenous injection of ondansetron 0.92 mg/kg through the ear vein. Rabbits in the Shenxianling granules combined with ondansetron group (combination drug group) were firstly given 575 mg/kg of Shenxianling granules by gavage continuously for 10 days, and on the morning of the 11th day, ondansetron 0.92 mg/kg was intravenously injected. Blood samples were collected before administration and at 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 5 hours, 6 hours, 7 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours and 24 hours after administration of ondansetron. The blood concentration of ondansetron was detected using HPLC method and pharmacokinetic parameters were calculate. Results:Two New Zealand rabbits in the combination drug group developed agitation and cough, and then died on the second and fifth day of gavage, respectively. Therefore a total of 18 and 16 rabbits in the single drug group and the combination drug group completed the experiment, respectively. After ondansetron administration, the plasma concentration of ondansetron increased rapidly in the single drug group and remained at low levels in the combination drug group. From 5 minutes to 10 hours after administration, the plasma concentration of ondansetron at the 13 blood sampling time points in the combination drug group was significantly lower than that in the single drug group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.001). Compared with the single drug group, the plasma clearance half-life of ondansetron in the combination drug group was significantly prolonged, the peak time, peak concentration, concentration at the last time and area under the curve (AUC) were all significantly reduced, and the percen- tage of residual or extrapolated area to the overall AUC, apparent volume of distribution, and clearance/bioavailability ratio were significantly increased; the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.001). Conclusions:There is a significant interaction between Shenxianling granules and ondansetron, leading to a decreased plasma concentration of ondansetron. The mechanism may be related to Shenxianling granules altering the tissue distribution of ondansetron within the body.

Objective:To investigate the quality control of magnetic resonance enterography(MRE)in the diagnosis of intestine diseases,and analyze the factors that affected the imaging quality of MRE,and enhance the imaging quality of MRE through adopted the measures of quality control.Methods:The documents of MRE examinations of 167 patients with intestinal disease who admitted to the 900th Hospital of People's Liberation Army Joint Service Support Force from May 2018 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The image qualities of all patients were evaluated after they completed clinical and image examinations.The reasons that image quality could not meet the requirement of diagnosis were analyzed.And then,the measures of quality control were proposed.Results:In 167 patients with intestinal disease,the MRE images of 153 patients(91.62%)could meet the requirement of diagnosis.In 14 patients(8.38%)whose MRE images could not meet the requirement of diagnosis,the reason of 3 cases(1.80%)was poor respiratory coordination,and that of 2 cases(1.20%)was there were more severe magnetic sensitive artifacts in images,and that of 1 case(0.60%)was severe intestinal peristalsis leaded to blurred images,and that of 2 cases(1.20%)was the flow void effect from intestinal peristalsis inside of intestinal cavity could not meet the requirement of diagnosis,and that of 4 cases(2.40%)was the intestinal tube without incomplete dilation caused by poor oral filling contrast agent,and that of 2 cases(1.20%)was many residues in intestine due to poor preparation for intestine.Aimed at the factors that MRE images could not meet requirement of diagnosis,we proposed the following quality control measures:①the biphasic contrast agents with favorable safety,without severe adverse reactions,which can fully dilate intestinal cavity,should be selected.②we should do well for the dilation of intestinal tube,and inhibit the intestinal peristalsis and conduct respiratory training.③we should conduct scan with wide field at coronal site,so as to display panorama image of intestine.④The scans of conventionally anatomical sequence and functional imaging sequence on axis position were performed on lesions.Conclusion:MRE technique should choose appropriate contrast agent in the quality control of the diagnosis of intestine diseases,and do well the preparation for patients before examination.Using intraluminal contrast agents,conducting intestinal dilation and optimal imaging technique are essential for obtaining intestinal MRE images with high quality.

Objective To expand the application of EOS in orthopedic diagnosis and treatment by comparing EOS and CT in the measurement of tibial tubercle-trochlear groove(TT-TG)distance of patellar dislocation.Methods The clinical and complete imaging data(EOS and CT)of 35 cases of patellar dislocation(dislocation group)and 35 cases of non-patellar dislocation(non-dislocation group)were analyzed retrospectively.Results The age difference between the dislocation group and the non-dislocation group was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The TT-TG distance was measured by EOS in the dislocation group(20.19±1.05)mm and the non-dislocation group(13.33±1.17)mm,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The TT-TG distance was measured by CT in the dislocation group(21.51±1.11)mm and the non-dislocation group(14.21±1.11)mm,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Bland-Altman plot showed that only three cases were outside the 95％confidence interval.Conclusion Accurate TT-TG distance can be obtained by using EOS system in imaging evaluation of patients with patellar dislocation,which provides a new measurement method for diagnosis and treatment evaluation of patellar dislocation.

Abdominal incisional hernia is caused by poor healing of myofascial layer of abdominal wall and abdominal visceral organs protruding through the defect after abdominal surgery. The incidence of abdominal incisional hernia is 5.0%?20.0%, even higher after hepato-biliary and pancreatic surgery. Although great progress has been made in the methods of abdominal incision closure, hernia repair technology and materials, the overall incidence, repair effect and prognosis of abdominal incisional hernia are still not significantly improved. The incisional hernias after hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery are relatively more complex, and the difficult problems of surgical repair are more prominent, including effectively controlling basic diseases, choosing a better surgical method, reasonably using a variety of abdominal wall defect closure and reconstruction techniques, and reducing the risk of postoperative complications. Relevant guidelines for abdominal incisional hernia repair and abdominal closure have been issued and updated all over the world. In order to improve the treatment of incisional hernia after hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery and improve the prognosis of patients, the authors summarize the difficulties and new progress in the repair of incisional hernia after hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of single locked-plate internal fixation combined with autologous iliac bone graft in the treatment of Rorabeck type II periprosthetic distal femural fracture (PDFF) after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods:A retrospective case series study was made on 13 patients suffering from Rorabeck type II PDFF after primary TKA together with severe osteoporosis (T value≤ -2.5 SD) admitted to 940th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force of PLA from January 2016 to December 2020, including 4 males and 9 females, aged 65-85 years [(75.2±6.5)years]. All patients were treated with single locked-plate internal fixation combined with autologous iliac bone graft. Anti-osteoporosis and early standardized joint function rehabilitation were undertaken postoperatively. The operation time and intraoperative blood loss were recorded. The range of motion of knee joint was compared before operation, at postoperative 3, 6 and 12 months and at the last follow-up. The Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee score was assessed at postoperative 3, 6 and 12 months and at the last follow-up to evaluate the recovery of knee joint function. The bone mineral density was reexamined at postoperative 6 months and 12 months to evaluate the therapeutic effect of anti-osteoporosis. Complications were detected as well.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-72 months [(43.2±19.9)months]. The operation time was 90-135 minutes [(103.8±12.6)minutes], with the intraoperative blood loss of 100-250 ml [(150.0±45.6)ml]. The range of motion of knee joint was (114.6±7.8)°, (90.4±8.0)°, (97.3±4.8)° and (98.1±6.3)° before operation and at postoperative 3, 6 and 12 months (all P<0.05). The HSS knee score was (80.2±2.2)points, (84.6±2.9)points and (87.3±3.3)points at postoperative 3, 6 and 12 months (all P<0.05). The knee joint function was excellent in 10 patients and good in 3 at postoperative12 months, and the excellent and good rate was 100%. The T value of bone mineral density was (-3.8±0.6)SD, (-3.4±0.6)SD and (-2.9±0.6)SD preoperatively and at postoperative 6 months and 12 months (all P<0.05). One patient experienced nonunion and was cured after secondary autologous iliac bone grafting combined with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) bone grafting. Three patients developed venous thrombosis of lower limbs and were cured with oral administration of rivaroxaban. One patient had mild knee flexion and extension limitation and was improved after manual release under femoral nerve block anesthesia and subsequent functional rehabilitation. Conclusion:For patients with Rorabeck type II PDFF after TKA, single locked-plate internal fixation combined with autologous iliac bone graft has advantages of short operation time, few intraoperative bleeding, satisfactory knee range of motion and functional recovery as well as significant improvement of bone mineral density.
