Objective:To explore the risk fall death associated with compound hot extremes.Methods:This study collected data on fall deaths in Guangdong, Hunan, and Zhejiang Provinces from 2013 to 2018 and matched their exposure to meteorological data. Based on a time-stratified case-crossover design, a conditional logistic regression model embedded with a cross-basis function of the distributed lag nonlinear model was applied to estimate the risk of fall to death due to compound hot extremes.Results:Compared with regular days, compound hot extremes significantly increased the risk of death from falls ( OR=1.19, 95% CI: 1.09-1.30), and women ( OR=1.27, 95% CI: 1.11-1.45) and the elderly age 65 and above ( OR=1.24, 95% CI: 1.12-1.39) were more sensitive to compound hot extremes. The maximum duration of compound hot extremes was 7 days, and the maximum intensity was 6.2 ℃, and the duration and intensity were proportional to the risk of death from falls. The risk of death from falls increased by 12% ( OR=1.12, 95% CI: 1.06-1.18) each day, increasing in duration after linearization. The risk of death from falls increased by 16% ( OR=1.16, 95% CI: 1.10-1.22) for each 1 ℃ increase in linearized intensity. Conclusion:Compound hot extremes increase the risk of death cases from falls.

Objective To analyze thoracolumbar vertebral fractures(A3)treated by multiple manipulations using the finite element method and to explore the feasibility and advantages of the composite surgical method for treating thoracolumbar vertebral fractures(A3).Methods For three-dimensional reconstruction of thoracolumbar vertebral fractures(A3),the model was loaded with simulated hyperextension posture restoration,simple press restoration,press restoration under hyperextension posture,and composite manipulation.Subsequentially,the stress distribution of the model and displacement of the fractured vertebral body were observed.Results The equivalent stress under composite manipulation was 111.88 MPa,which was greater than that under other manipulations,and the stress under composite manipulation was more concentrated in the anterior and middle columns of the vertebral body.The peak stress under composite manipulation was 122.53 MPa,which was greater than that under other manipulations,and the stress was centrally distributed in fracture region of the fractured vertebral body.The fracture displacement under composite manipulation was 3.94 mm,which was greater than that under other manipulations,and the displacement distribution decreased from the posterior column to the anterior mid-column.The anterior longitudinal and intertransverse interligamentous ligaments of the fractured vertebral body experienced the greatest stress under composite manipulation,and the joint capsule ligaments experienced the greatest stress under hyperextension postural restoration,simple press restoration,and press restoration under the hyperextension posture.Conclusions Compound manipulation for treating thoracolumbar vertebral fractures(A3)has obvious advantages over other manipulative restorations and is a reasonable program for the current treatment of thoracolumbar vertebral fractures(A3).
