Objective To investigate the predictive value of serum uric acid(UA),homocysteine(Hcy)and the product index of UA and Hcy in patients with stable coronary artery disease(SCAD).Methods A total of 783 patients with suspected coronary heart disease were collected,all of whom underwent coronary angiography.Patients were divided into coronary heart disease(CHD)group and non-coronary heart disease(NCHD)group.The CHD group was further divided into low score group(≤35 points)and high score group(>35 points)according to Gensini scores.Baseline data,blood lipids,Hcy,UA,left ventricular function ultrasound indicators,and comorbidities were collected.Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the risk factors associated with the onset of SCAD and severe coronary artery disease,while the Receiver Operating Characteristic(ROC)curve was conducted to assess the predictive efficacy of the product index of UA and Hcy,and related risk factors,for SCAD onset and severe coronary artery disease.Results 1.In CHD group,UA,Hcy and the product index of UA and Hcy were all higher than in the NCHD group(P<0.001);the high-score group had higher UA,Hcy and the product index of UA and Hcy than the low Gensini score group(P<0.001).2.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that female age,sex,body mass index(BMI),product index of UA and Hcy,high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),left ventricular end-systolic volume(LVESV),left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and hypertension(HTN)were independent risk factors for SCAD(P<0.05).BMI,the product index of UA and Hcy,HDL-C,LDL-C and LVEF were independent risk factors for severe coronary artery disease(P<0.05).3.There was a positive correlation between UA and Hcy product index and Gensini scores(r=0.433,P<0.05).4.Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the product index of UA and Hcy and combined detection of coronary heart disease risk factors had predictive value for the occurrence of SCAD(P<0.05),and the predictive value of combined detection was higher(area under the curve 0.808);both the product index of UA and Hcy and the combined detection of coronary heart disease risk factors had predictive value for severe coronary artery lesions(P<0.05),with a higher predictive value for combined detection(area under the curve 0.771).Conclusion As an independent predictor of the risk of SCAD and severe coronary stenosis,the product index of UA and Hcy has a high predictive efficacy regarding disease risk and the severity of coronary artery in patients with SCAD.

Objective To evaluate the predictive value of changes in serum homocysteine(Hcy),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),and the homocysteine-to-HDL-C ratio(HHR)for the incidence and short-term prognosis of patients with premature coronary heart disease(PCHD).Methods Between January 2022 and December 2023,301 patients with the suspected coronary heart disease(males≤55 years,females≤65 years)were retrospectively selected from the Department of Cardiology at the Third People's Hospital of Yunnan Province.All patients who underwent coronary angiography(CAG)were divided into the premature coronary heart disease(PCHD)group(n=98)and the non-coronary heart disease(NCHD)group(n=203).Patients with PCHD were followed up six months after the discharge and were further classified into the good prognosis group(n=55)and the poor prognosis group(n=43)based on the presence of worsening clinical symptoms such as chest tightness,chest pain,arrhythmias,heart failure,or death.Data collected included general patient information,blood lipid levels,Hcy levels,left ventricular function ultrasound indicators,and the presence of hypertension and type 2 diabetes.Results Hcy and HHR levels were significantly higher in the PCHD group compared to the NCHD group,while HDL-C levels were lower(P<0.001).In the poor prognosis group,Hcy and HHR levels were elevated,and HDL-C levels were reduced compared to the good prognosis group(P<0.001).The Hcy and HHR levels in the severe coronary artery stenosis group were markedly higher than those in the normal coronary artery group and the mild to the moderate stenosis group,with HDL-C levels being lower(P<0.001).Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified that male sex,HHR,Hcy,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)were independent factors influencing premature coronary heart disease(P<0.05).HHR was found to be an independent risk factor for the poor short-term prognosis in PCHD.The analysis of the operating characteristic curve of the subjects showed that serum Hcy and HHR had the predictive value for the occurrence of PCHD(P<0.05),with HHR showing higher predictive value(area under the curve[AUC]=0.713).HHR also had the substantial predictive value for the short-term prognosis of PCHD(AUC=0.715).Conclusion Elevated HHR levels are associated with the severe coronary artery disease in patients with PCHD.HHR serves as a significant predictor for both the occurrence and short-term prognosis of PCHD.

Objective:To evaluate the performance of our self-developed deep learning (DL) model which was designed to automatically classify the knee X-ray images into one non-surgical category and 4 surgical categories, including non-surgical knees (NSK), high tibial osteotomy (HTO), total knee arthroplasty (TKA), unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA), and tibial plateau fracture fixation with an internal fixation plate (TPFF).Methods:The knee X-ray images were collected of the patients who had undergone knee joint surgery at Department of Orthopaedics, Fuzhou Second General Hospital from January 2017 to December 2022. On the Baidu EasyDL AI platform, a multi-class object recognition DL model was built using the You Only Look Once (YOLO) algorithm. The model was trained on a dataset of 1,281 knee anteroposterior X-ray images (including NSK, HTO, TKA, UKA, and TPFF) to generate a DL model which was able to automatically recognize and classify the knee X-ray images. The reliability of the model classification performance was evaluated by analyzing the 5 indicators [accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV)] using a test set of 450 knee anteroposterior X-ray images with the above 5 categories. The receiver operating characteristic curve was plotted and the area under the curve (AUC) was calculated to further quantify the classification performance of the model.Results:In the test set, on the whole, the model achieved an accuracy of 97.0%, a sensitivity of 92.4%, a specificity of 98.1%, a PPV of 92.4%, and a NPV of 98.1%, an AUC of 0.947, indicating a high reliability in classifying various categories. The model showed a best performance for TKA, with the 5 indicators being 99.1%, 99.0%, 99.1%, 97.1% and 99.7%. The model showed a slightly lower sensitivity for TPFF and HTO (87.0% and 86.0%, respectively).Conclusion:A successful DL model has been developed which can automatically classify the knee X-ray images into non-surgical and surgical categories due to its satisfactory performance, particularly in accuracy and AUC.

Objective To investigate the perioperative effects of simultaneous fixation and staging fixation in polytrauma patients combined with spine injury and long bone fracture.Methods A retrospective case control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 41 severe polytrauma patients with unstable spine combined with long bone fracture admitted from June 2009 to June 2015.There were 30 males and 11 females,aged 21-66 years [(41.2 ± 12.2)years].The injured spinal segments included cervical vertebrae in 11 patients,thoracic vertebrae in 15,lumbar vertebrae in 23,sacrococcygeal vertebrae in two,as well as injuries at two or more different segments in 10 patients.The long bone fracture segments included humerus in six patients,radius and ulna in 14,femur in 15,tibia and fibula in 14,as well as injuries at two or more different segments in eight patients.The injury severity score (ISS) were all ≥ 15 points.According to the timing of operation,the patients were divided into the simultaneous operation group (20 patients) and the staging operation group (21 patients).In the simultaneous operation group,there were 16 males and four females,aged (43.1 ± 12.6)years,and internal or external fixations of spine and long bone were performed at stage Ⅰ.In the staging operation group,there were 14 males and seven females,aged (40.1 ± 11.9)years.Spine fixation surgery was performed first,and then surgery for long bone fracture was performed after the conditions were stabilized.Spinal surgery methods included anterior subtotal vertebral resection,bone graft plate internal fixation,posterior laminectomy and decompression,and lateral mass screw or pedicle screw internal fixation.Plate and interlocking nail were used for internal fixation of long bone fracture,and single arm bracket for external fixation.The preoperative hospitalization time,operation time,operative blood loss (intraoperative hemorrhage and postoperative drainage),postoperative complications,hospitalization time and Frankel score of spinal cord injury before and after operation were compared between the two groups.Results The preoperative hospital stay was (9.3 ± 6.7) days in the simultaneous operation group and (5.6 ± 5.0) days in the staging operation group (P ＞ 0.05).The simultaneous operation group had significantly longer operation time [(4.9 ± 2.0) hours] than the staging operation group [(3.2 ± 1.2) hours] (P ＜ 0.01),more operative blood loss [(1 322.6 ± 507.1) ml] than the staging operation group [(1 036.7 ± 233.9) ml] (P＜0.05),and shorter hospitalization stay [(22.8 ± 12.6)days] than the staging operation group [(33.0 ± 15.4) days] (P ＜ 0.05).The complication incidence of the simultaneous operation group [45％ (9/20)] was significantly lower than that of the staging operation group [86％ (18/21)] (P ＜ 0.01).No significant difference was found in Frankel score between the simultaneous operation group [(3.3 ±1.7)points] and the staging operation group [(3.1 ± 1.5)points] (P ＞0.05).Conclusion For polytrauma patients combined with spine injury and long bone fracture,simultaneous operation can reduce hospitalization time and complication incidence compared with staging operation.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of modified bony landmark measurement ( MBLM ) to deal with leg length discrepancy ( LLD ) during total hip arthroplasty ( THA ). Methods We retrospectively analyzed the 36 patients in whom MBLM was used to deal with LLD during THA from January 2014 to May 2015 at Department of Orthopaedics, The Second Hospital of Fuzhou. They were 17 men and 19 women, aged from 42 to 78 years ( average, 68.7 ± 10.1 years ). They were divided into 3 groups according to their pre-operative LLD value ( d ) : 16 cases in group A with d≤10 mm, 11 cases in group B with 10 mm ＜d≤20 mm and 9 cases in group C with d ＞ 20 mm. After the sizes of prosthetic cup and femoral component and the location of implant were determined using preoperative X-ray, a special formula was used to calculate the prosthetic length of femoral head neck and the osteotomy area at the femoral neck. MBLM was used to measure the leg lengths before hip joint dislocation and after placement of the hip implant. The neck length and depth of the femoral component was adjusted according to the measurements. Post-operative X-ray was used to measure the LLD ( d'). The value of MBLM in judgment of LLD during THA was assessed by comparison of d and d' and analysis of distribution of d' . Results The postoperative d' ( 6.0 ± 3.0 mm) was signifi-cantly shorter than the preoperative d ( 11.0 ± 5.0 mm) ( t＝5.145, P ＜0.001 ). There were 30 cases with d' ≤ 10 mm, 6 cases with 10 mm ＜d'≤ 20 mm and 0 case with d' ＞ 20 mm. The cases with d'≤ 10 mm were significantly more than those with d ≤ 10 mm and the cases with d' ＞ 20 mm significantly fewer than those with d ＞ 20 mm ( χ2＝15.500, P＝0.000 ) . Conclusion MBLM used during THA is a reliable method to judge the leg lengths so that LLD can be effectively reduced after THA.

Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) was done successfully in 33 patients,6 of them were associated with 8 acute coronary events. Radioimmunoassay was used for the determination of plasmaET,AII and CGRP levels. The samples were drawn successively from femoral artery just before PTCA and 0min, 15min,1h,3h,24h after the final balloon inflation. The results showed that the levels of plasma AII were higher in the complication group than those of noncomplication group before PTCA and 0min, 24h after PTCA. The differences in plasma ET levels before and after PTCA between the complication group and the non-complication group were not significant. The level of plasma CGRP was decreased at 15min and returned to basal level at 1h after PTCA in the complication group.In the patients without complication,there were no significant differences in their plasma CGRP levels before and after PTCA. All + ET/CGRP in the complication group raised more rapidly,recovered later and the peak appeared earlier than that of non-complication group. For a better understanding pathophysiologic meaning of the above changes,further studies are needed.
