Objective To explore the application effect of modified installing method of high flexion rotating platform prosthesis trial model in double compartment knee arthroplasty.Methods A total of 20 patients(26 knees)with severe knee osteoarthritis admitted to Hebi People's Hospital from January 2021 to April 2022 and required double compartment knee arthroplasty were selected as the research subjects.Patients were divided into the control group(10 knees)and the observation group(16 knees)based on the installing method of high flexion rotating platform prosthesis trial model.The patients in the control group used the conventional installing method of high flexion rotating platform prosthesis test model(placing the tibial side test model,the femoral side test model and finally the pad test model),while patients in the observation group used the modified installing method of high flexion rotating platform prosthesis test model(matching the femoral test model,pad and tibial test model when the patient flexed 60° to 90°,and placing them together into the knee joint osteotomy groove).The intraoperative bleeding volume and surgical time of patients in the two groups were recorded.Before surgery,2 weeks after surgery and 18 months after surgery,the knee joint function of patients was evaluated by the American hospital for special surgery(HSS)scoring system,and the range of motion(ROM)of knee joint of patients was measured by protractor.Results The intraopera-tive bleeding volume of patients in the observation group was significantly less than that in the control group,and the surgical time was significantly shorter than that in the control group(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in preoperative HSS score and ROM of knee joint of patients between the two groups(P＞0.05).At 2 weeks and 18 months after surgery,the HSS score and ROM of knee joint of patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Compared with the conventional installing method of high flexion rotating platform prosthesis trial method,the modified installing method of high flexion rotating platform prosthesis trial model in double compart-ment knee arthroplasty for patients with severe knee osteoarthritis can effectively improve surgical efficiency,reduce intraopera-tive bleeding,improve knee function and increase ROM of knee joint.

【Objective】 To determine the reference range of thromboelastogram(TEG) and establish a TEG feature for local population by measuring TEG parameters in healthy adults in Shenzhen comparing the difference between gender and age, and analyzing the reference data provided by reagent manufacturer. 【Methods】 A total of 916 healthy adults, aged between 19 to 59, who did their regular health checks in our hospital from September 2020 to August 2021 were selected. The TEG(from Lepu Medical Technology Co., Ltd.) was performed, and the clot reaction time(R), clot formation time(K), coagulation angle(α-Angle), maximum amplitude(MA), coagulation index(CI), fibrinolysis index LY30 and the estimated percent lysis (EPL) were analyzed. 【Results】 The reference ranges of TEG parameters, including R, K, α-Angle, MA, CI, LY30 and EPL, of 916 healthy adults from Shenzhen were 3.25~8.19 min, 0.66~3.18min, 47.70~76.56deg, 50.05~72.91mm, -4.3~3.4, 0~2.2% and 0~3%, respectively. The value of α-Angle, CI, K, LY30, MA and R didn’t all meet the given range provided by the manufacturer; some were exceeding and some inferior to. A total of 227 out of 916 individuals presented abnormal results, relative to the references, in at least one parameter, and 78 were diagnosed of abnormal coagulation based on the given reference range, with a specificity of 75.2%. 【Conclusion】 The reference range of TEG parameters of Shenzhen locals is significantly different from that provided by manufacturers. And it is imperative for local TEG laboratories to establish their own reference ranges according to age and gender groups based on local population characteristics.

Objective:To explore the technical advantages of MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) with single breath holding high parallel acquisition factor 3-D variable flip angle fast spin echo (3D-SPACE) sequence.Methods:From November 2018 to March 2019, 75 patients who underwent MRCP examination in our hospital were prospectively enrolled, with single breath holding high parallel acquisition factor 3D-SPACE sequence and free breathing navigation gated 3D-SPACE sequence. Three experienced radiologists scored the overall image quality, artifacts, CBD visibility, left and right hepatic ducts, right anterior and posterior branches, second and third branches, main pancreatic duct and gallbladder duct with four scales. Paired t test was used for statistical analysis. Results:The scanning time of single breath holding method (18 s) was significantly shorter than that of free breathing diaphragm navigation method［264（226，313）s］, and the difference between the two methods was statistically significant ( Z=-7.520， P<0.001). The SNR, CR and CNR (8.31±4.23, 0.92±0.30, 11.46±5.77) of single breath holding method were lower than those of free breathing diaphragm navigation method (11.23±5.70, 0.93±0.38, 15.06±7.37), and the differences between the two methods were also statistically significant ( t=4.378, 3.429, 4.063, P<0.05). The overall image quality, artifact, the CBD, left and right hepatic duct, right anterior and posterior branchs, the second and third branches, main pancreatic duct and cystic duct of single breath holding method were higher than those of free breathing diaphragm navigation method, and the differences between the two methods were statistically significant ( P<0.001). Conclusions:Compared with the free breathing diaphragm navigation gated 3D-SPACE MRCP imaging method, the single breath holding high parallel acquisition factor 3D-SPACE MRCP imaging method has less artifacts and examination time, but higher visibility to pancreaticobiliary tree and work efficiency, which is worthy of further promotion.
