Objective To evaluate the influence of routine lateral release to the clinical outcomes after total knee arthroplasty without patellar resurfacing.Methods The study involved all patients divided into two groups using a randomised group method.During total knee arthroplasty(TKA),forty-three patients were treated with lateral release in the treatment group,while Forty-two patients in the control group were not treated with lateral release.Both groups were assessed for anterior knee pain,patient satisfaction,Knee Surgery Society(KSS)score,KSS function score,patella score,and incidence of postoperative complications.Results After 24 months of follow-up,the treatment group was found to have a lower incidence of anterior knee pain compared to the control group(P<0.05),and there were no statistically significant differences in postoperative satisfaction,complication rate,KSS knee score,KSS function score,and patella score between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The study suggests that routine lateral release can reduce anterior knee pain and does not increase the risk of postoperative complications after total knee arthroplasty without patellar resurfacing.

Objective To explore the impact of transpedicular screw fixation on bone metabolism and clinical effi-cacy in thoracolumbar fractures.Methods Totally 77 patients with thoracolumbar fractures(T11-L2)treated at the Spinal Surgery Department of Xinxiang Central Hospital from December 2020 to June 2022 were selected as sub-jects.According to different surgical screw placement methods,the patients were divided into the cross-pedicle screw group(group A,n=41)and the transpedicular screw group(group B,n=36).The two groups were com-pared for surgical indicators(operation time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative drainage volume,hospital stay),hematological indicators[serum alkaline phosphatase(ALP),serum bone glaprotein(BGP)],radiological indicators(anterior vertebral height ratio,correction rate of vertebral Cobb angle),and clinical efficacy indicators(Oswestry Disability Index ODI score,lumbar spine JOA score).Results The operation time of group A was longer than that of group B(P＜0.05).There was no significant differences in intra-operative blood loss,post-operative drainage volume,and hospital stay between the two groups(P＞0.05).At 3 days after surgery,the hematological indicators of both groups were higher than those of before surgery and the data of group A were higher than those of group B(P＜0.05).At 3 months after surgery,the hematological indicators of Group B were higher than those be-fore surgery and those of group A(P＜0.05).The anterior vertebral height ratio of both groups were better than those before surgery at 3 days,3 months,and 1 year after surgery(P＜0.05).At 1 year after surgery,the anterior vertebral height ratio and Cobb angle correction rate of group A were better than those of group B(P＜0.05).The clinical efficacy indicators of both groups were better than those before surgery at 3 days,3 months,and 1 year after surgery(P＜0.05).At one year after surgery,the clinical efficacy indicators of group A were better than those of group B,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusions In the treatment of thoracolum-bar fractures,compared with the cross-pedicle screw fixation method,the transpedicular screw fixation method has an early stimulating effect on bone metabolism indicators,speeds up healing of fractures and has more advantages in maintaining spinal correction and improving spinal function.

Objective:To explore the clinical effects of free anterolateral thigh perforator flaps in repairing diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) under a multi-disciplinary team (MDT) cooperation model.Methods:The study was a retrospective observational study. From June 2018 to December 2022, 49 DFU patients who met the inclusion criteria were admitted to the Department of Hand and Foot Microscopy and Wound Repair Surgery of Henan Provincial People's Hospital (People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University), including 28 males and 21 females, aged from 47 to 68 years, with type 2 diabetes history period ranging from 6 months to 21 years. Under a MDT cooperation model, the physicians from department of endocrinology comprehensively assessed the patients, stabilized the patients' general condition, and controlled their complications, the surgeons from department of vascular surgery assessed and improved the patients' lower limb blood supply, the physicians from department of infectious diseases provided anti-infection treatment plans, the physicians from department of anesthesiology and perioperative medicine assessed the patients' perioperative risk and ensured their perioperative safety, and according to the patients' condition, the physicians from departments such as cardiology, neurology, nutrition, and rehabilitation actively and timely participated in the treatment. The surgeons from department of hand and foot microscopy and wound repair surgery prepared the wound base and used free anterolateral thigh perforator flaps to repair the wounds. After once or multiple debridement in the first stage, the wound area ranged from 5.0 cm×4.5 cm to 17.0 cm×10.0 cm. After once or twice vacuum sealing drainage treatment, the free anterolateral thigh perforator flaps were used to repair the wounds with incision area of 6 cm×5 cm to 18 cm×11 cm in the second stage. The descending branches of lateral circumflex femoral artery and the accompanying veins of flaps were anastomosed to the arteries and veins in the recipient sites, respectively. The wounds in the flap donor sites were sutured directly. After surgery, whether the patient's perioperative period was stable, the survival of flaps, the healing of wounds in the flap donor and recipient sites were observed. During the follow-up, the texture and appearance of flaps, whether there was a new ulcer, and the patient's walking ability were observed.Results:All the patients had stable perioperative period. Among them, the flaps in 46 patients survived successfully; the flaps in 2 patients developed complete necrosis, including 1 case whose ulcer was healed after repair of pedicled flap from the lower leg, and 1 case who underwent amputation of the lower leg; the flap in 1 patient developed partial necrosis, which was healed after dressing change and skin grafting. The wounds in the flap donor and recipient sites healed well. During the postoperative follow-up of 6-24 months, the flaps had good texture and appearance with no new ulcers, and the patients had no obvious impairment in daily walk.Conclusions:The MDT cooperation model can sufficiently ensure the perioperative safety of DFU patients. The free anterolateral thigh perforator flaps can repair the DFU wounds achieving good clinical effects with high flap survival rate and decreased amputation rate.

Objective:To investigate the consistency and correlation of the respiratory synchronization tracking and fiducial marker respiratory synchronization tracking in the Cyberknife stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) with the diaphragm as the tracking target.Methods:A total of 11 patients hospitalized at Union Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology from April 2018 to November 2019 were enrolled, including 8 cases of lung cancer, 2 cases of liver cancer with lung metastasis and 1 case of colorectal cancer with lung metastasis. All enrolled cases used fiducial marker tracking plan (RT) and diaphragm contour tracking plan (DT), and then all received tumor visualization simulation tests. Bland-Altman method was used to make the consistency analysis of the offset in the visualization tests process of 2 tracking plans at each respiratory time point. The minimum tolerance distance, uncertainty and average standard deviation and maximum standard deviation in the optimal model state plans were compared between the both plans by using t test. Results:Compared with RT, the translational standard deviations of DT tracking were listed as follows: head-foot direction (0.4±2.9) mm, left-right direction (0.3±4.4) mm, anterior-posterior direction (-1.8±6.8) mm. The Bland-Altman method showed that the consistency between RT and DT was better in the head-foot and left-right directions, and worse in the anterior-posterior direction; the synchronization was only better in the head-foot direction, and worse in both the left-right and anterior-posterior directions. Results of the model quality comparison showed that the uncertainty of RT was higher than that of DT, and the difference was statistically significant [(23±6)% vs. (9±4)%, t=-5.24, P = 0.001], while the differences of the minimum tolerance distance, average standard deviation and maximum standard deviation were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Patients who use respiratory synchronization Cyberknife SBRT with the diaphragm as the tracking target have better consistency and synchronization in the head-foot direction, but worse in the left-right and anterior-posterior directions. Under the corresponding marginal margin of the target area in the left-right direction, for tumors near the diaphragm that are not visible in the visual test, it is potentially feasible to use the diaphragm as a tracking target to implement respiratory synchronization SBRT. For larger motion amplitudes in the left-right and anterior-posterior directions, more caution is required.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of modified Atkins diet (MAD) in treating global growth retardation (GDD).Methods:A prospective multicenter clinical controlled study was conducted.The children were included from 8 departments of children′s rehabilitation in Henan Province from July 2017 to October 2017.A total of 154 children who met the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned into the routine treatment group (88 cases) and MAD therapy group (66 cases). A total of 62 children in MAD therapy group and 59 children in routine treatment group completed the study for 15 months.The routine treatment group was provided comprehensive rehabilitation training, and the MAD therapy group was given MAD treatment on the basis of rehabilitation training.Two-way repeated-measures ANOVA was used to compare the differences among datas at different time points. Results:After 3 months, there were significant differences in the scores of the Chinese Version of Urban Infant-Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment (CITSEA)/Achenbach Children′s Behavior Scale (CBCL) between the 2 groups (all P<0.05). Significant improvement was seen in the MAD group.After 6 months, the MAD therapy group had significantly higher scores on the Gesell Developmental Scale for language and social behavior than the routine treatment group (all P<0.05). After 9 months, the scores of the children in the MAD therapy group were better than those in the routine treatment group in the Gesell Developmental Scale adaptive energy area and the infant-junior high school student social life scale (S-M scale), and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). After 15 months, the fine motor in the MAD therapy group was better than that in the routine treatment group ( P<0.05). At the early stage of MAD therapy, 28 patients showed mild adverse reactions that were reversed after symptomatic treatment.No severe adverse reactions were observed. Conclusions:MAD therapy can improve the neuro-development, emotional and social behaviors, and adaptive behaviors with no severe adverse effects.

Objective:To establish a multilocus sequence typing (MLST) assay for Corynebacterium ( C.) striatum, explore the population structure and evolution relationship of clinical isolates of C. striatum. Methods:Seven housekeeping genes ( gyrA, gyrB, hsp65, sodA, secA1, rpoB, 16S rRNA) were amplified with PCR by using self-designed specific primers and sequenced. Then, the sequences were assembled with software SeqMan. The gene diversity and gene recombination characteristics were evaluated by using software DnaSP 5.10.01 and Splits tree 4.14.2. The phylogenetic tree and the minimum spanning tree were constructed based on the sequence types (ST) characteristics by using software MEGA 7.0.14 and BioNumerics, respectively. In addition, the genetic evolutionary relationship among STs were analyzed by using software eBURST 3.0. Results:The expected amplification products of seven sites selected in all the test strains were obtained. Splits tree showed that the clustering of all C. striatum strains was consistent, suggesting that gene recombination is the potential driving force for the evolution of C. striatum. All of the 344 C.striatum strains were divided into 72 STs by MLST and 85.7% of the strains formed clonal complexes. CC19 was the predominant clonal complex, whereas ST16 in the clonal complex was detected in the most strains. ST had a certain geographic clustering and a certain correlation with the isolation time. Conclusions:C. striatum showed high genetic diversity in China and CC19 was the predominant clonal complex. The MLST assay established in this study can be used for the typing of C. striatum, but further improvement is needed.

Conclusions:AED is reliable and effective in electric shock decision and performance.The overall efficiency of AED application can be improved by strengthening training, shortening the critical time of electric shock, rational configuration and effective management.

Objective To explore the clinical value of an auxiliary set-up method with fiducial markers and Synchrony tracking implanted in spine during Cyber-knife stereotactic radiotherapy by comparing the rotational setup errors between auxiliary setup with less than and more than three fiducial markers.Methods A total of 145 cases of tumor patients with fiducial tracking and Synchrony tracking were selected for radiotherapy,including 94 cases in the observation group (＜3 fiducial markers) and 51 cases in the control group (≥ 3 fiducial markers).Before treatment,one spinal alignment plan was added to all the cases in the observation group,and the rotation deviation of the selected spinal distance and the assisted spinal alignment correction of the fiducial marker tracking and the fiducial marker respiratory tracking were counted respectively,and the result of the rotation deviation calculated in the observation group and the control group were analyzed.Results Fiducial tracking spine auxiliary setup result:fiducial marks and selected the spine center distance ＜ 20,20-40,40-60,60-80 and ＞ 80 mm rotating statistical average deviation (0.494±0.350) °,(1.291±0.590) °,(1.705±0.739) °,(2.512±0.761) ° and (2.796± 1.081) °,respectively,rotate observation group and control group total deviation (1.742±0.784) °,(1.805±0.562) °,respectively.Synchrony tracking result in the above case rotation statistical average deviation was (1.190± 0.547) °,(1.956± 0.735) °,(2.141 ± 0.670) °,(2.957±0.648) ° and (4.027±0.695) °,respectively,while rotation total deviation in observation group and control group (2.619±0.906) °,(2.233 ±0.763) °,respectively.There was no significant difference in the rotation deviation between the assisted spinal set-fup and the calculation of rotation deviation between the fiducial tracking and the synchrony tracking (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions In the fiducial tracking treatment,the range of rotation deviation for the spinal auxiliary set-up correction increases with the increase of the distance between the fiducial markers and the selected spinal center.When the distance between the fiducial marker and the selected spinal is less than 60 mm,the rotation deviation calculated by the spinal auxiliary setup has the same tumor rotation correction effect as that calculated by the fiducial markers.When less than 3 fiducial markers are available and the minimum distance between the fiducial marks and the center of the adjacent spine is relatively close (＜ 60 mm),the deviation of the rotation direction of the tumor can be calculated by adding the spinal auxiliary setup plan.

Objective: To improve synchrony tracking components of CyberKnife (tracking vest and tracking markers) and to analyze the clinical application value of the improved tracking components in CyberKnife treatment of thoracic and abdominal tumors. Methods: The tracking apron was made of knitted four-side elastic spandex cloth and suture design of Velcro, which was used to stick the tracking markers on the chest and abdomen of patients. The tracking markers added a 2 cm thick light foam block to the bottom of the original markers, and then the hook face of the Velcro was fixed to the bottom of the light foam. The improved trace component (the improved component) and the original component (the vendor component) were applied to the lung tracking treatment model, and the manufacturer components were included in the reference group. Adoption of improved components into the observation group; 20 different types of respiratory waveforms were simulated and applied to the same mold plan. After treatment, the coverage rate, mean standard deviation, maximum standard deviation and the slope of XYZ-axis vs. R correlation graph were recorded. The relevant parameters of Synchrony model and wearable time of two components were compared, and the application significances of the improved tracking component in the breathing tracking process of the CyberKnife were evaluated. Results: The maximum slope [median(interquartile range)] of XYZ-axis vs. R related graph in the reference group was 0.73 (3.89), 0.27 (0.49) and 0.34 (1.02), respectively. The maximum slope of XYZ-axis vs. R related graph in the observation group was 0.70 (2.78), 0.31 (0.30) and 0.36 (0.75), respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in the slope of XYZ-axis vs. R between the reference group and the observation group (all P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in the average standard error and maximum standard error between the reference group and the observation group [(1.7±0.4) mm vs. (1.7±0.5) mm, t=-0.382, P= 0.710; (2.0±0.6) mm vs. (1.7±0.5) mm, t=-0.877, P= 0.401], and the difference of the model coverage rate between the two groups was statistically significant [(48±18)% vs. (60±22)%, t= 2.762, P= 0.042]. The setup time of tracking components in the observation group was less than that in the reference group, and the difference was statistically significant [(44±24) s vs. (81±15) s, t=-4.310, P= 0.001]. Conclusions The improved tracking components are comparable to the manufacturer tracking components in the standard error of the Synchrony model. The improved components shorten the wear time and appropriately improve the coverage of the Synchrony model.

Objective: To prepare diphenidol hydrochloride push-pull osmotic pump tablets and in-vestigate the influence of differ-ent factors on in-vitro drug release. Methods: The cumulative release of different formulas was detected. Using the cumulative release and similarity factor f2as the evaluation criterion, single factor experiment was applied to screen the core formula and coating process. Results: The drug release behavior was affected by the content of PEO in the drug containing layer, the content of NaCl and the weight gain of the coating layer. After the formula was optimized, the NaCl content in the drug containing layer was 10mg, the PEO-N10 con-tent was 15mg. In the push layer, the content of PEO-WSR303 was 60 mg, that of NaCl was 20 mg. The optimized coating liquid for-mula contained 1. 25 g·L-1PEG4000 and the coating weight gain was 7% of the core. The optimized formula fitted a zero-order equa-tion within 2-12h with the drug release equation of Q=6. 308t-2. 5037(r=0. 995 8). Conclusion: The preparation technology of di-phenidol hydrochloride push-pull osmotic pump tablets is stable, and the in-vitro drug release fits zero-order model.
