Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of wrist arthroscopy assisted closed reduction with external fixation in the treatment of intra-articular comminuted fractures of the distal radius(type C3).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 98 patients with type C3 intra-articular comminuted fractures of the distal radius admitted to our hospital from March 2022 to February 2023.Among them,48 patients underwent wrist arthroscopy assisted closed reduction with external fixation with a bracket(arthroscopy group),and another 50 patients underwent open reduction with steel plate internal fixation surgery(control group).The two groups were compared in terms of operation time,intraoperative bleeding volume,incision length,fracture union time,range of motion(ROM)of joint,Visual Analogue Scale(VAS),and Gartland-Werley wrist scores,as well as radiographic parameters(palmar tilt,ulnar inclination,and radial height)evaluated at various follow-up intervals.Results The arthroscopy group had an operation time of(55.3±10.5)min,which was significantly shorter than that in the control group[(83.4±14.6)min;t=-10.979,P=0.000].The intraoperative bleeding volume in the arthroscopy group was(42.3±8.6)ml,which was less than that in the control group[(71.4±10.5)ml;t=-14.953,P=0.000].The incision length of the arthroscopy group was(1.3±0.3)cm,which was shorter than that of the control group[(5.1±1.5)cm;t=-18.550,P=0.000].The arthroscopy group had a fracture healing time of(10.7±1.4)weeks,which was shorter than that in the control group[(12.2±1.6)weeks;t=-4.855,P=0.000].The palmar flexion ROM in the arthroscopy group was 68.8°±8.3°,which was significantly higher than that in the control group(61.5°±9.4°;t=4.002,P=0.000).The dorsiflexion ROM in the arthroscopy group was 63.9°±7.5°,which was significantly higher than that in the comtrol group(59.2°±8.3°;t=2.931,P=0.004).The pronation ROM in the arthroscopy group was 67.4°±10.3°,which was significantly higher than that in the control group(62.1°±9.9°;t=2.604,P=0.011).The supination ROM in the arthroscopy group was 70.5°±7.4°,which was significantly higher than that in the control group(64.4°±8.6°;t=3.777,P=0.000).The VAS score of the arthroscopy group was(1.3±0.6)points,which was significantly lower than that in the control group[(1.7±0.5)points;t=-3.941,P=0.000].After 6 months,the Gartland-Werley wrist scores of the arthroscopy group was significantly higher than that of the control group(Z=-2.614,P=0.009).The wrist joint imaging showed significantly higher radial height,palmar inclination angle,and ulnar deviation angle in the arthroscopy group than the control group(all P=0.000),while there were no significant differences in palmar inclination angle and ulnar deviation angle at different time points within each group(P＞0.05).Except for significant differences in radial height at 3 d,1 month,and 6 months after surgery(P=0.015,P=0.035),there were no significant differences between any other time points(P＞0.05).The interaction between time and group was not significant for palm inclination angle,ulnar deviation angle,and radial height(P＞0.05).Conclusion Wrist arthroscopy assisted closed reduction with external fixation for intra-articular comminuted fractures of distal radius has advantages of short operation time,less intraoperative blood loss,and good recovery of wrist joint functions.

Background::Accurately and efficiently extracting microbial genomic sequences from complex metagenomic data is crucial for advancing our understanding in fields such as clinical diagnostics, environmental microbiology, and biodiversity. As sequencing technologies evolve, this task becomes increasingly challenging due to the intricate nature of microbial communities and the vast amount of data generated. Especially in intensive care units (ICUs), infections caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria are increasingly prevalent among critically ill patients, significantly impacting the effectiveness of treatments and patient prognoses. Therefore, obtaining timely and accurate information about infectious pathogens is of paramount importance for the treatment of patients with severe infections, which enables precisely targeted anti-infection therapies, and a tool that can extract microbial genomic sequences from metagenomic dataset would be of help.Methods::We developed MetaGeneMiner to help with retrieving specific microbial genomic sequences from metagenomes using a k-mer-based approach. It facilitates the rapid and accurate identification and analysis of pathogens. The tool is designed to be user-friendly and efficient on standard personal computers, allowing its use across a wide variety of settings. We validated MetaGeneMiner using eight metagenomic samples from ICU patients, which demonstrated its efficiency and accuracy.Results::The software extensively retrieved coding sequences of pathogens Acinetobacter baumannii and herpes simplex virus type 1 and detected a variety of resistance genes. All documentation and source codes for MetaGeneMiner are freely available at https://gitee.com/sculab/MetaGeneMiner. Conclusions::It is foreseeable that MetaGeneMiner possesses the potential for applications across multiple domains, including clinical diagnostics, environmental microbiology, gut microbiome research, as well as biodiversity and conservation biology. Particularly in ICU settings, MetaGeneMiner introduces a novel, rapid, and precise method for diagnosing and treating infections in critically ill patients. This tool is capable of efficiently identifying infectious pathogens, guiding personalized and precise treatment strategies, and monitoring the development of antibiotic resistance, significantly impacting the diagnosis and treatment of severe infections.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of "outside-in" arthroscopic cam resection in the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI)syndrome.Methods Nine patients were treated with "outside-in" hip arthroscopy for cam or mixed type FAI syndrome between July 2015 and July 2016.All the 9 patients(11 hips)underwent osseous correction of the femoral neck and labral debridement.Before the surgery and 12 months after it,all patients were evaluated using the Harris Score and their complications were observed.Results The average postoperative Harris Score(92.5,range from 64 to 100)was significantly better compared with the preoperative one(56.4,range from 22 to 70,P＜ 0.001).One patient with blister on dorsal foot and another with fluid leakage were cured.No neurovascular injuries or cartilage injuries were found among all the patients.Conclusion "Outside-in" arthroscopic treatment of FAI with osseous correction and labral debridement is safe and effective.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound in breast precancerous lesions . Methods Retrospectively analyzed the contrast-enhanced ultrasound model and angiographic predictive model of 465 cases of the A prospective multicenter study of breast nodules contrast-enhanced ultrasound" that led the Sichuan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2016 to April 2017 ,which included 69 cases of breast precancerous lesions and 396 other types benign lesions ,and the sensitivity ,specificity and accuracy of the diagnosis of breast precancerous lesions were calculated . Results The sensitivity of ultrasound predictive model for the diagnosis of precancerous lesions was 60 .9％ and AUC was 0 .681 . Precancerous lesions mainly showed non-concentricity , increased homogeneity , and increased lesions;other types of benign lesions mainly showed non-centripetal ,high uniformity enhancement and lesion size unchanged . Conclusions Contrast-enhanced ultrasound shows a potential value in the differential diagnosis of precancerous lesions and other types of benign lesions ,that can help clinicians to take early intervention measures for breast precancerous lesions ,but there are still many problems to be solved .
