Chronic refractory wound (CRW) is one of the most challengeable issues in clinic due to complex pathogenesis, long course of disease and poor prognosis. Experts need to conduct systematic summary for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW due to complex pathogenesis and poor prognosis, and standard guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW should be created. The Guideline forthe diagnosis and treatment of chronic refractory wounds in orthopedic trauma patients ( version 2023) was created by the expert group organized by the Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Chinese Orthopedic Association, Chinese Society of Traumatology, and Trauma Orthopedics and Multiple Traumatology Group of Emergency Resuscitation Committee of Chinese Medical Doctor Association after the clinical problems were chosen based on demand-driven principles and principles of evidence-based medicine. The guideline systematically elaborated CRW from aspects of the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, postoperative management, complication prevention and comorbidity management, and rehabilitation and health education, and 9 recommendations were finally proposed to provide a reliable clinical reference for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW.

Objective:To understand the current status of condom use and its correlates among community-based older adults in Chongqing, China.Methods:Cross-sectional study based on a multistage sampling method was conducted in Chongqing from June 2020 to December 2022. The estimated sample size was 735. Through face-to-face interviews, the investigators collected the sociodemographic characteristics, sexual behavior characteristics, awareness of AIDS prevention knowledge, etc. A multivariable logistic regression model was used to explore the correlates of condom use during the last sexual behavior among the participants. Results:A total of 761 participants were included in this study, with 476 males and 285 females, whose average age was (63.8±8.2) years old, mainly in the age group of 60-69 years (44.5%). Among the participants, the rate of condom use during the last sexual behavior was 9.7%. The multivariable logistic regression analysis indicated that correlates of condom use during the last sexual behavior included urban household registration (a OR=2.34, 95% CI: 1.12-4.89), monthly income of 1 000-4 999 Yuan, and 5 000 Yuan and above (a OR=4.49, 95% CI: 1.31-15.41; a OR=16.33, 95% CI: 4.30-62.00), self-assessed sexual behavior risk as very risky/relatively risky (a OR=3.97, 95% CI: 1.40-11.31), awareness of AIDS prevention knowledge (a OR=0.36, 95% CI: 0.21-0.62). Conclusions:The rate of condom use among community-based older adults in Chongqing is low. Comprehensive intervention measures should be taken in combination with the characteristics and needs of community-based older adults to improve awareness of AIDS prevention knowledge and perception of AIDS risk and promote condom use among this population.

Lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is one of the main complications in patients with traumatic fractures, and for severe patients, the DVT can even affect arterial blood supply, resulting in insufficient limb blood supply. If the thrombus breaks off, pulmonary embolism may occur, with a high mortality. The treatment and rehabilitation strategies of thrombosis in patients with lower extremity fractures have its particularity. DVT in traumatic fractures patients has attracted extensive attention and been largely studied, and the measures for prevention and treatment of DVT are constantly developing. In recent years, a series of thrombosis prevention and treatment guidelines have been updated at home and abroad, but there are still many doubts about the prevention and treatment of DVT in patients with different traumatic fractures. Accordingly, on the basis of summarizing the latest evidence-based medical evidence at home and abroad and the clinical experience of the majority of experts, the authors summarize the clinical treatment and prevention protocols for DVT in patients with traumatic fractures, and make this consensus on the examination and assessment, treatment, prevention and preventive measures for DVT in patients with different fractures so as to provide a practicable approach suitable for China ′s national conditions and improve the prognosis and the life quality of patients.

Objective:To explore the association of inflammatory markers and thromboinflammatory factors before and after thrombolytic intervention with functional outcomes in elderly patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods:392 patients with acute cerebral infarction admitted to our hospital were randomly selected as study subjects and divided into an observation group(196 cases)treated with arterial thrombolytic therapy and a control group(196 cases)treated with intravenous thrombolysis.Functional outcomes of patients were assessed 72 hours after thrombolysis using the activities of daily living(ADL)scale and, based on the results, patients were divided into a poor functional outcome group and a good functional outcome group.Inflammatory markers such as neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR)and thromboinflammatory factors such as monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1), tissue plasminogen activator(t-PA), soluble CD40 ligand(sCD40L)and P-selectin before and after thrombolysis were measured.The relationship of these inflammatory markers and thromboinflammatory factors before thrombolysis with functional outcomes 72 hours after thrombolysis was analyzed.Results:NLR and PLR levels in the two groups after thrombolysis were significantly lower than those before thrombolysis(all P<0.05); Their levels in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(all P<0.05). After thrombolysis, MCP-1 levels in both groups were significantly higher and t-PA, sCD40L, P-selectin levels were significantly lower than pre-thrombolysis levels(all P<0.05); After thrombolysis, the observation group had better results than the control group(all P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that NLR, PLR, MCP-1 and t-PA were positively correlated with NIHSS score( r=0.336, 0.264, 0.483, 0.549, all P<0.05). NLR, PLR, MCP-1, t-PA and sCD40L levels were significantly lower and P-selectin levels were significantly higher in the good functional outcome group than in the poor functional outcome group both before and 72 hours after thrombolysis( t=13.850, 18.208, 23.636, 22.371, 59.868, 96.646, 378.112, 141.213, 131.160, 110.039, 10.716, 11.108, P<0.05 for all). Logistic regression analysis showed that abnormal levels of NLR, PLR, MCP-1 and t-PA before and after thrombolysis were risk factors for adverse outcomes with thrombolytic intervention( P<0.05). ROC curves showed that the levels of NLR, PLR, MCP-1, t-PA, sCD40L and P-selectin before thrombolysis had a certain predictive value for the risk of adverse functional outcomes with thrombolysis. Conclusions:The levels of these inflammatory markers and thromboinflammatory factors before and after thrombolytic intervention have varying degrees of correlation with functional outcomes in elderly patients with acute cerebral infarction.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between vascular wall characteristics and ischemic stroke and its mechanism in patients with atherosclerotic middle cerebral artery (MCA) stenosis.Methods:Patients with atherosclerotic MCA stenosis received high-resolution vessel wall imaging (HR-VWI) in Shenzhen Bao'an District People's Hospital from November 2017 to November 2018 were enrolled retrospectively. The imaging characteristics, such as the lumen and vessel diameter and vessel wall area at the narrowest level of MCA plaque, plaque load, remodeling index, and plaque enhancement rate were measured. A multivariate logistic regression model was used to identify the independent risk factors for stroke in patients with atherosclerotic MCA stenosis. Results:A total of 53 patients with atherosclerotic MCA stenosis were enrolled, aged (53.5±9.7) years, 28 were male (52.8 %). There were 28 in the stroke group and 25 in the non-stroke group. Thirteen patients were artery-artery embolization, 15 were non-artery-artery embolization; 39 were mild stenosis, and 14 were moderate to severe stenosis. Compared with the non-stroke group, the moderate to severe stenosis was more common in the stroke group ( P=0.010), the plaque load was greater ( P=0.006), and the remodeling index was lower ( P=0.010). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the remodeling index was an independent risk factor for stroke in patients with atherosclerotic MCA stenosis (odds ratio 0.002, 95% confidence interval 0.000-0.952; P=0.048). Compared with the non-artery-artery embolization group, the mean thickness of MCA was larger in the artery-artery embolization group ( P=0.037). Compared with the mild stenosis group, the plaque load was greater ( P=0.001), the plaque enhancement rate was higher ( P=0.004), and remodeling index was lower ( P<0.001) in the moderate to severe MCA stenosis group. Conclusions:In the atherosclerotic MCA stroke group, patients with moderate to severe stenosis are more common, with greater plaque load and lower remodeling index. Remodeling index is an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke. Patients with moderate to severe MCA stenosis have a higher plaque enhancement rate and a lower remodeling index, suggesting that the vessel wall inflammatory response is more significant and had decompensation. HR-VWI is expected to be used to assess the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke events.

Since December 2019, novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP) has been reported in Wuhan, Hubei Province, and spreads rapidly to all through Hubei Province and even to the whole country. The virus is 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV), never been seen previously in human, but all the population is generally susceptible. The virus spreads through many ways and is highly infectious, which brings great difficulties to the prevention and control of NCP. Based on the needs of orthopedic trauma patients for emergency surgery and review of the latest NCP diagnosis and treatment strategy and the latest principles and principles of evidence-based medicine in traumatic orthopedics, the authors put forward this expert consensus to systematically standardize the clinical pathway and protective measures of emergency surgery for orthopedic trauma patients during prevention and control of NCP and provide reference for the emergency surgical treatment of orthopedic trauma patients in hospitals at all levels.

Objective:To explore the value of enhancement rate of aneurysm wall by high-resolution magnetic resonance vessel wall imaging (HR-VWI) in assessing the risk of intracranial aneurysm rupture.Methods:Seventy patients with 80 intracranial aneurysms, admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to December 2019, were chosen in our study; morphological parameters (shape, neck width, height, diameter) of the intracranial aneurysms, and signal intensity and enhancement rate of aneurysm wall were collected from HR-VWI. These patients were divided into a high-risk rupture group (PHASES scores>3) and a low-risk rupture group (PHASES scores≤3) according to PHASES scores. Univariate analysis was used to compare the differences of clinical data (age, gender, blood pressure, blood lipids, and smoking history) and aneurysm imaging data between the two groups of patients. Multivariable Logistic regression was used to determine the independent influencing factors for aneurysm rupture, and receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve of enhancement rate of aneurysm wall in predicting aneurysm rupture was drew to determine the best diagnostic value.Results:Univariate analysis showed that the percentages of patients with hypertension, multiple aneurysms and irregular aneurysm morphology, aneurysm height, aneurysm diameter and aneurysm wall enhancement rate were significantly different between the high-risk rupture group and low-risk rupture group ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that aneurysm diameter ( OR=1.647, 95%CI: 1.177-2.306, P=0.004) and aneurysm wall enhancement rate ( OR=5.317, 95%CI: 1.527-18.512, P=0.009) were independent influencing factors for rupture of intracranial aneurysms. The area of ROC curve was 0.735, the optimal cut-off value was 0.583; the sensitivity of predicting rupture of intracranial aneurysms was 72.7% and the specificity was 70.2%. Conclusion:The aneurysm wall enhancement rate is significantly correlated with risk of aneurysm rupture; when the PHASES scores>3 and aneurysm wall enhancement rate>58.3%, clinical intervention should be vigilant.

Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy of negative pressure wound therapy(NPWT)combined with pig decellularized dermal matrix(ADM)on the repair of limb deep burn wound.Methods From March 21,2015 to January 18,2016,102 patients with limb deep burn wounds in the Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical College were selected,and randomly divided into conventional group and observation group,with 51 cases in cach group.The conventional group was treated with ADM dressing alone,and NPWT+ADM was used in the experimental group.The therapeutic effect was compared between the two groups.Results The drainage fluid volume after treatment for 21d in the observation group was(18.65 ±1.23)mL,which was significantly less than that in the conventional group[(48.36 ±3.12)mL,t=63.265,P=0.000].The wound healing rates of the observation group after treatment for 7d(t=153.829,P=0.000),14d(t=53.786,P=0.000),21d(t=70.763,P=0.000)were significantly higher than those of the conventional group.The wound healing time of the observation group[(18.86 ±1.52)d]was significantly shorter than the conventional group [(28.32 ±1.76)d,t=29.050,P=0.000].Conclusion For patients with limb deep burn wounds,NPWT combined with ADM treatment has remarkable effect,can obviously improve the clinical symptoms,promote disease recovery,it is worthy of popularizing.

Objective To investigate the predisposing locations of active hemorrhage in patients with esophageal variceal bleeding. Methods Data of 823 patients with acute esophageal and gastric variceal hemorrhage receiving emergency gastroscopy diagnosed from January 2003 to December 2013 were retrospectively studied. The location and site of active hemorrhage or stigmata were analyzed and its relationship with active hemorrhage was discussed. Results A total of 372(45. 2%,372/823) patients with active bleeding and stigmata were found under emergency endoscopy. Among 372 patients, 190 got accurate hemorrhage and stigmata location and site description. Bleeding or stigmata in 58(30. 5%) patients was 28-32 cm from incisor in group A, and that in 132 (69. 5%) patients was more than 35 cm in group B ( χ2＝57. 642, P＜0. 000 1). In 190 cases, the proportion of bleeding or stigmata at 3:00 point was the highest (37%,70/132), followed by those at 12:00 point(30%,58/132),6:00 point(24%,45/132),and 9:00 point (9%,17/132). The change trend of the percentage of each point in group A and group B was the same as that in all cases. The percentage of almost all points in group B was significantly higher than that in group A except that at 9:00 point ( P＜0. 000 1).Conclusion Esophageal variceal bleeding in cirrhosis is more common at 3:00 point, 6:00 point and 12:00 point of esophagus, and the high risk area is 35 cm below the incisors.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of balloon closure combined with endoscopic therapy on spontaneous gastrorenal shunt ( SGRS ) and spontaneous splenorenal shunt ( SSRS ) . Methods The data of 33 patients of gastric varices with SGRS or SSRS diagnosed in the Chinese PLA General Hospital between January 2009 and February 2016 were collected. All patients were treated with the balloon retrograde distributary channel blocking technique and endoscopic histoacryl injection. Patients' clinical data, complications and effect of endoscopic therapy were retrospectively analyzed. Results In the 33 patients of gastric varices, gastrorenal shunt was found in 28 ( 84. 8%) cases and splenorenal shunt was found in 5 ( 15. 2%) cases. After the balloon blocking technique, 24 cases ( 72. 7%) were occluded successfully. Four cases failed in occlusion of SSRS due to tortuosity. There were no postoperative ectopic embolism, infection, hepatic encephalopathy, liver function deterioration, and other complication. Early latex varices were found in 21 cases after three months follow-up. Conclusion The balloon blocking technique combined with tissue adhesive injection could safely and effectively avoid the risk of ectopic embolism and plays an important role in the treatment of gastric varices in merger portasystemic shunt.
