Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of modified anterior subacromial approach plate internal fixation for three- or four-part valgus impacted proximal humeral fractures.Methods:A retrospective analysis of 35 patients treated between November 2018 and November 2021 at Fuzhou Second General Hospital was performed, including 15 males and 20 females aged 61.7±7.8 years (range: 40 to 73 years). Patients were classified under the Neer system; 17 had 3-part fractures and 18 had 4-part fractures. The modified approach accessed the fracture site via the natural interval of the deltoid anterior bundle, facilitating fracture reduction and fixation using a plate. Operative time, incision length, intraoperative fluoroscopy time, follow-up duration, Constant-Murley score, fracture healing time, visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain, and humeral neck-shaft angle were assessed. Intraoperative and postoperative complications were also recorded.Results:All patients underwent successful surgery, with an average incision length of 8.1±0.3 cm (range, 7.6-9.0 cm) and intraoperative fluoroscopy time of 6.6±0.3 seconds (3-part fractures: 6.3±0.2 s, 4-part fractures: 6.8±0.2 s, t=6.350, P<0.001). Follow-up averaged 22.1±5.8 months (range, 14-31 months). Fracture healing occurred in 11.8±1.4 weeks (range, 10-15 weeks). At the final assessment, the VAS score was 1.6±0.7 (range, 1-3), the Constant-Murley score was 89.6±2.9 (range, 84-95), and the humeral neck-shaft angle was 133.4°±3.1° (range, 128°-138°; 3-part fractures: 133.6°±3.5°, 4-part fractures: 133.3°±2.8°, t=0.288, P=0.075). No complications such as avascular necrosis of the humeral head, varus collapse of the fracture site, or axillary nerve injury were recorded. Conclusion:The modified anterior subacromial approach plate internal fixation is a minimally invasive, safe, and effective treatment for valgus impacted three- and four-part proximal humeral fractures, demonstrated by excellent surgical outcomes and absence of major complications.

Objective:To evaluate the reliability and clinical application of a self-established classification system for the lower 1/3 humeral fractures in adults.Methods:A retrospective study was performed to analyze the 88 patients with lower 1/3 humeral fracture who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedics, The Second Hospital of Fuzhou between January 2013 and December 2020. There were 61 males and 27 females with an age of (34.6±12.7) years. The lower 1/3 humeral fractures were classified according to the location of the fracture line, displacement, and bone mass into 3 types: type Ⅰ: transverse and short oblique ones; type Ⅱ: oblique and spiral ones; type Ⅲ: oblique and spiral ones with butterfly-shaped bone mass. After a junior orthopedic surgeon, an intermediate orthopedic surgeon, a senior orthopedic surgeon, and a radiologist had learned this novel classification system, they were asked to classify the lower 1/3 humeral fractures in this cohort independently to assess the reliability of the classification system. Our treatments were based on this novel classification. Open reduction and internal fixation with a unilateral plate through a lateral approach was performed for type Ⅰ fractures, internal fixation with a unilateral plate plus compression screws through a lateral approach for type Ⅱ fractures, and double plate internal fixation through the ulnar and anterolateral approaches for type Ⅲ fractures. The functions of the radial, ulnar, and musculocutaneous nerves and fracture healing time were observed postoperatively. The shoulder and elbow functions were evaluated using Neer shoulder function score and Mayo elbow function score.Results:Of the 88 patients in this cohort, 20 were type Ⅰ, 25 type Ⅱ, and 43 type Ⅲ. The mean Kappa value for inter-observer reliability was 0.878 at the first stage and 0.914 at the second stage, and the mean Kappa value for intra-observer reliability was 0.950. All patients were followed up for (14.1±3.7) months. Iatrogenic injury to the radial nerve was observed in 2 patients, but no injury to the ulnar nerve, the musculocutaneous nerve or important blood vessels or failure of internal fixation was reported. All patients achieved bony union after (12.7±2.0) weeks. The maximum elbow flexion was 137.8°±4.8°, and the maximum elbow extension 2.4°±1.6°. The Mayo elbow function score was (92.0±3.1) points and the Neer shoulder function score (92.2±3.2) points.Conclusions:Our classification system for the lower 1/3 humeral fractures in adults is reliable. As the treatments corresponding to the novel classification system can achieve satisfactory clinical outcomes, the classification system has a clinical value.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) assisted by the "3-2-1" surface positioning method in the treatment of femoral subtrochanteric fractures.Methods:A total of 97 patients with subtrochanteric fractures admitted to the Second Hospital of Fuzhou from January 2015 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into two groups according to whether the "3-2-1" surface positioning method (3 longitudinal axes, 2 preset incisions, and 1 auxiliary incision) was used. There were 44 patients in the surface positioning group, including 25 males and 19 females, aged 61.59±18.43 years (range, 22-90 years). According to the Seinsheimer classification, there were 13 cases of type II, 11 cases of type III, 6 cases of type IV, and 14 cases of type V. The mechanism of injury was low energy injury in 26 cases and high energy injury in 18 cases. There were 53 patients in the traditional positioning group, including 30 males and 20 females, aged 56.38±17.24 years (range, 24-90 years). According to the Seinsheimer classification, there were 9 cases of type II, 22 cases of type III, 9 cases of type IV, and 13 cases of type V. According to the mechanism of injury, there were 30 cases of low energy injury and 23 cases of high energy injury. The length of incision, operation time, and blood loss were recorded. At 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after operation, the anteroposterior and lateral X-ray films of the hip were taken to evaluate the imaging indicators (neck-shaft angle, anteroposterior and lateral displacement, and angulation), fracture healing, and complications (infection, malunion, loosening and breakage of the internal fixation, and periprosthetic fracture). The Harris hip score and EuroQol five dimensions questionnaire (EQ-5D) were evaluated.Results:All patients successfully completed the operation and were followed up for 15.12±1.54 months (range, 12-18 months). The operation time, incision length, dominant blood loss and hidden blood loss in the surface positioning group were 1.78(1.50, 2.00) h, 8(8, 9) cm, 300(200, 400) ml and 843(629, 1 130) ml, respectively, which were less than 2.10(1.69, 2.38) h, 10(9, 12) cm, 400(300, 500) ml and 1 030(954, 1 266) ml in the traditional positioning group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The neck-shaft angle in the surface positioning group was 135.54°±2.83°, which was larger than 132.33°±3.37° in the traditional positioning group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=5.02, P<0.001). The anterolateral and lateral displacement and lateral image angle in the surface positioning group were 4.70±1.60 cm, 4.52±1.71 cm and 9.36°±2.94°, respectively, which were lower than 6.14±2.57 cm, 5.98±2.70 cm and 11.46°±4.68° in the traditional positioning group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). One year after operation, the Harris hip score and EQ-5D score of the surface positioning group were 92(84, 99) points and 0.90(0.73, 1.00) points, respectively, which were higher than 88(74, 96) points and 0.81(0.72, 0.94) points of the traditional positioning group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The "3-2-1" surface positioning method assisted PFNA internal fixation in the treatment of femoral subtrochanteric fracture can improve the quality of reduction, reduce intraoperative blood loss, and improve hip function and quality of life.

Objective:To compare the conventional percutaneous minimally invasive plate fixation sparing pronator quadratus versus the 3-point positioning percutaneous minimally invasive palmar locking plate fixation sparing pronator quadratus for distal radial fractures.Methods:Between January 2015 and December 2017, 50 patients with distal radius fracture were treated surgically at Department of Orthopaedics, The Second Hospital of Fuzhou by percutaneous minimally invasive plate fixation sparing pronator quadratus. They were 24 males and 26 females, aged from 21 to 71 years. Conventional percutaneous minimally invasive plate fixation was conducted for 25 patients and 3-point positioning minimally invasive plate fixation for the other 25 patients. The 2 groups were compared in terms of fluoroscopic adjustments of the plate under the pronator quadratus, fracture healing time, visual analogue scale (VAS) on days 1, 3 and 7 postoperation, and wrist flexion and extension, forearm rotation and upper limb function by Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand(DASH) scores and Gartland-Werley scores at 3 months postoperation.Results:There was no significant difference in the general data between the 2 groups, showing comparability between groups ( P>0.05). The fluoroscopic adjustments of the plate under the pronator quadratus for the conventional group (3.4±0.5) were significantly more than for the 3-point positioning group (1.1±0.3) ( P<0.05). The VAS scores on days 1, 3 and 7 postoperation for the conventional group were significantly higher than for the 3-point positioning group ( P<0.05). At 3 months postoperation, the wrist pronation was respectively 76.6°±1.9° and 82.3°±2.0°, and the Gartland-Werley scores were respectively 3.4±0.5 and 1.9±0.2 for the conventional and 3-point positioning groups, showing significant differences between the 2 groups ( P< 0.05). Conclusions:In the treatment of distal radial fractures, compared with conventional percutaneous minimally invasive plate fixation, the 3-point positioning minimally invasive plate fixation sparing pronator quadratus may minimize the damage to the pronator quadratus, be more minimally invasive, and lead to less early postoperative pain and faster functional recovery.

OBJECTIVE： To observe the inhibitory effects and possible mechanism of new small molecular kinase inhibitors Ibr-7 [Irutinil（Ibr） derivatives] on human pancreatic cancer Capan-2 cells. METHODS： Taking Capan-2 cells as objects， CCK-8 method was used to determine the proliferation of cells after treated with 1， 2， 4， 8 μmol/L Ibr/Ibr-7 for 48 h. The survival rates of cells were calculated. Sensitization effects of 1 μmol/L Ibr/Ibr-7 on different doses of gemcitabine/paclitaxel （0.062 5， 0.125， 0.25， 0.5， 1 μmol/L） were detected. Clone formation test was used to detect the situation of cell clone formation after treated with 1， 2， 4 μmol/L Ibr/Ibr-7 for 48 h. The number of cell colony formation was recorded. Flow cytometry or JC-1 method was used to detect the apoptosis of cells after treated with 2， 4， 8 μmol/L Ibr-7 for 24 or 16 h and the changes of mitochondrial transmembrane potential； total apoptotic rate and the percentage of mitochondrial membrane potential decrease were calculated. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of related apoptotic protein （PARP， Noxa， Bcl-2， Bax， Mcl-1， Bcl-xL）. RESULTS： After treated with 1， 2， 4， 8 μmol/L Ibr/Ibr-7 for 48 h， the survival rates of cells were decreased significantly； those of Ibr-7 groups were significantly lower than those of same-dose Ibr groups； IC50 of Ibr-7 was significantly lower than that of Ibr （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. After combined with Ibr/Ibr-7， the survival rate of cells was significantly lower than that of same-dose gemcitabine/paclitaxel alone group， and the Ibr-7 combination group was significantly lower than same-dose Ibr combination group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. After treated with 2， 4 μmol/L Ibr and 1， 2， 4 μmol/L Ibr-7 for 48 h， the number of cell clone formation was decreased significantly， while Ibr-7 groups were significantly lower than same-dose Ibr groups （P＜0.01）. After treated with different doses of Ibr-7 for 24 or 16 h， total apoptosis rate of cells （2， 4， 8 μmol/L）， the proportion of cell mitochondrial membrane potential decrease （8 μmol/L）， the relative protein expression of Noxa （2， 4， 8 μmol/L） and Bax （8 μmol/L） were increased significantly， while the protein expression of PARP （8 μmol/L）， Bcl-2 （4 μmol/L）， Mcl-1 （2， 4， 8 μmol/L） were decreased significantly； above indexes （except for relative expression of PARP and Bcl-2） of 8 μmol/L Ibr-7 group were significantly better than same-dose Ibr group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. There was no statistical significance in protein expression of Bcl-xL among those groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS： Compared with Ibr， Ibr-7 has better inhibitory and apoptotic effects on human pancreatic cancer Capan-2 cells in vitro， and has stronger chemotherapeutic drug sensitization activity， the mechanism of which may be associated with reducing mitochondrial transmembrane potential， down-regulating the protein expression of PARP， Bcl-2 and Mcl-1 and up-regulating the protein expression of Noxa and Bax.
