Objective:To explore the feasibility and consistency of a new digital classification system of pelvic fractures named as JST classification based on close reduction techniques.Methods:A retrospective collection was conducted of the data from the 63 patients with pelvic fracture who had undergone surgical treatment after JST classification at Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from March 2021 to March 2023. Digital classification of the pelvic fractures was performed based on their locations and displacements. The classification first divides the pelvis into 4 parts: left half pelvis and right half pelvis; sacral Denis Ⅲ area and pubic symphysis. The symmetrical left and right sacral Denis Ⅰ and Denis Ⅱ areas are also included in the left/right half pelvis. Subsequently, the left half pelvis and right half pelvis are divided into 4 regions and marked by capitalized English letters: Sacrum Area (including Denis Ⅰ and Denis Ⅱ, denoted as S), Sacroiliac Joint Area (denoted as J), Iliac Area (denoted as I), and Pubic Area (denoted as P); to distinguish right/left, R and L are used as prefixes. The 2 asymmetric parts are also marked with English letters: Denis Ⅲ area of the sacrum (denoted as Sac), and pubic symphysis (denoted as C). Afterwards, the fracture line morphology and displacement in each region are marked digitally to form a complete JST classification system. The inter- and intra-observer reliabilities (Fleiss' and Cohen's Kappa) of the JST classification system were tested by 3 observers with more than 10 years of experience in pelvic fracture treatment.Results:Consistency analysis of the JST classification results showed that the mean κ value of the intra-observer reliability was 0.818 (from 0.658 to 0.946, P<0.001) and the inter-observer reliability 0.873 (from 0.674 to 1.000, P<0.001), both indicating excellent agreement. Of the 63 patients, 59 obtained successful closed reduction with the assistance of the Rossum Robot R-Universal intelligent orthopedic surgical robot system after fracture classification by the JST system, yielding a success rate of 93.7% (59/63). Conclusions:The new JST classification system for pelvic fractures demonstrates strong intra and inter-observer reliabilities compared with traditional classification systems. As JST classification system labels each fracture site and key bones, it is of great significance for the deep learning and intraoperative operations of intelligent fracture robots.

Objective:To analyze independent factors for treatment-requiring retinopathy of prematurity (TR-ROP) and establish a predictive nomogram model for TR-ROP.Method:A retrospective cohort study. A total of 6 998 preterm infants who were born at Guangdong Women's and Children's Hospital between January 1, 2012 and March 31, 2022 and were screened for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) were included in the study. TR-ROP was defined as type 1 ROP and aggressive ROP; 22 independent factors including general information, maternal perinatal conditions, interventions and neonatal diseases related to ROP were collected. The infants were divided at the level at an 8:2 ratio according to clinical experience, with 5 598 in the training cohort and 1 400 in the validation cohort. t test was used for comparison of quantitative data and χ 2 test was used for comparison of counting data between groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was carried out for the indicators with differences in the univariate analysis. The visualized regression analysis results of R software were used to obtain the histogram. The accuracy of the nomogram was verified by C-index and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve). Results:Among the 6 998 children tested, 4 069 were males and 2 920 were females. Gestational age was (33.69±3.19) weeks; birth weight was (2 090±660) g. There were 376 cases of TR-ROP (5.4%, 376/6 998). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that gestational age [odds ratio ( OR) =0.63, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 0.47-0.85, P=0.002], intrauterine distress ( OR=0.30, 95% CI 0.10-0.99, P=0.048), bronchopulmonary dysplasia ( OR=0.23, 95% CI 0.09-0.60, P=0.003), hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy ( OR=5.40, 95% CI 1.45-20.10, P=0.012), blood transfusion history ( OR=4.05, 95% CI 1.50-10.95, P=0.006) were the independent influencing factors of TR-ROP. Based on this and combined with birth weight, a nomogram prediction model was established. The C-index of the training set and validation set were 0.940 and 0.885, respectively, and the area under ROC curve were 0.945 (95% CI 0.930-0.961) and 0.931 (95% CI 0.876-0.986), respectively. The sensitivity and specificity were 86.2%, 94.0% and 83.2%, 93.3%, respectively. Conclusions:Gestational age, intrauterine distress, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and blood transfusion history are the independent factors influencing the occurrence of TR-ROP. The TR-ROP nomogram prediction model based on independent influencing factors has high sensitivity and specificity.

Objective:To evaluate open reduction and internal fixation via the anterior approaches in the treatment of geriatric acetabular fractures.Methods:Retrospectively analyzed were the clinical data of 74 consecutive patients with acetabular fracture who had been treated by open reduction and internal fixation via the anterior approaches from June 2018 to December 2020. The patients were divided into 2 groups. In the geriatric group (≥65 years old): 16 patients [8 males and 8 females with an age of (74.0±5.9) years]; 7 both column fractures, 4 anterior column fractures, and 5 anterior column plus posterior hemi-transverse fractures according to the Letournel-Judet classification; time from injury to operation: (6.1±3.4) d. In the young group (<65 years old): 58 patients [48 males and 10 females with an age of (46.7±10.9) years]; 28 both column fractures, 14 anterior column fractures, 8 anterior column plus posterior hemi-transverse fractures, 5 T type fractures and 3 transverse fractures; time from injury to operation: (5.4±2.7) d. The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative reduction, operative complications, and functional results.Results:The 2 groups were comparable because there was no significant difference in the preoperative general data like fracture Letournel-Judet classification or dome impaction between them ( P>0.05). The intraoperative blood loss in the geriatric group was (715.6±285.0) mL, significantly less than that in the young group [(1,008.6±463.9) mL]( P<0.05). In the geriatric and young groups, respectively, the operation time was (167.2±44.3) min and (172.9±56.6) min, 3 and 6 cases had main operative complications, the good to excellent rate of postoperative reduction was 87.5% (14/16) and 84.5% (49/58), and the follow-up time was (26.6±10.7) months and (23.6±10.1) months, all showing no significant difference ( P>0.05). According to the improved Merle d'Aubigné & Postel scoring system, the hip function at the last follow-up was evaluated as excellent in 5 cases, as good in 10 cases, and as fair in 1 case in the geriatric group while as excellent in 21 cases, as good in 33 cases, and as fair in 2 cases (the other 2 cases were lost) in the young group, showing no statistically significant difference between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Open reduction and internal fixation via the anterior approaches is as safe and effective for the geriatric patients with acetabular fracture as for the young and middle-aged ones.

Objective To observe the influence of the staining phenomenon after fluorescein sodium staining on eye irritation in normal rabbits.MethodsIn the experimental rabbit eye irritation test conducted with sodium chloride eye drops, Siwei Zhenceng Bingpeng eye drops, sodium hyaluronate eye drops, sodium cromoglycate eye drops, and compound aspartate eye drops (4 in each group, half male and half female), the left eyes of rabbits were administered normal saline (self-negative control) and the right eyes were administered the experimental medicine; the eyes were stained with 1% sodium fluorescein, and eye irritation was observed and scored using slit lamp microscope for 31 days. Morphological changes of corneal epithelial staining were recorded and the incidence of staining was calculated. After the observation, the eyeballs and Hasselblad glands were examined histopathologically, and the staining rate of the left eye was compared with that of the right eye which was administered the corresponding medicine.ResultsNeither eye had any irritation symptoms; the scores were 0, and the total incidences of corneal staining were 3% (left) and 1% (right), respectively. There was no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). Corneal epithelial staining showed single-spot staining, scattered dot, localized, or large areas of fusion staining. No histopathological changes were found in the eyeballs or Hasselblad glands, and the results were evaluated as non-irritative.Conclusion The irregularity of corneal epithelial staining in rabbits did not influence the results of the ocular irritation test.

【Objective】 To investigate the main causes of blood donor deferral in domestic blood center. 【Methods】 The causes of donor deferral were classified into 12 categories as previous medical history, drug use, alcohol consumption, menstrual period, underweight, abnormal blood pressure, abnormal body temperature, abnormal hemoglobin (Hb), lipemic blood, positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and others according to the comparison indicators of Asia-Pacific Blood Network (APBN) and the national standard Blood Donor Health Examination Requirements. The relevant data of the top 3 causes of donor deferral, voluntarily reported by the members of Practice Comparison Working Group of China’s Mainland Blood Collection and Supply Institutions from 2014 to 2019, were collected and a histogram was generated. 【Results】 The median donor deferral rate of 20 domestic blood centers from 2014 to 2019 was 12.14%, with the lowest at 0.18% and highest at 32.32%, respectively. The top three causes for donor deferral were elevated ALT, abnormal Hb and abnormal blood pressure in year 2014, 2015, 2018 and 2019; elevated ALT, lipemic blood and abnormal blood pressure in 2016; elevated ALT, abnormal Hb, and lipemic blood in 2017. 【Conclusion】 The main causes of donor deferral were elevated ALT, abnormal Hb, abnormal blood pressure and lipemic blood.

Objective:To evaluate the emergency iliosacral screw fixation assisted by TiRobot for unstable posterior pelvic ring fracture.Methods:The 26 patients with unstable pelvic fracture were analyzed retrospectively who had undergone emergency iliosacral screw fixation at Department of Orthopedics & Traumatology, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from June 2018 to December 2020. They were divided into 2 groups depending on whether orthopaedic TiRobot was used to assist screw insertion. In the observation group of 14 cases subjected to TiRobot-assisted insertion of iliosacral screws, there were 10 males and 4 females with an age of (45.9 ± 10.1) years; in the control group of 12 cases subjected to conventional manual insertion of iliosacral screws, there were 9 males and 3 females with an age of (49.2 ± 11.3) years. All the surgeries were conducted within 24 hours after injury. The 2 groups were compared in terms of screw insertion time, pin insertion, intraoperative blood loss, fluoroscopy time, postoperative screw position, fracture reduction and Harris hip score at the final follow-up.Results:The 2 groups were comparable because there was no significant difference between them in their preoperative general clinical data or follow-up time ( P>0.05). The screw insertion time [(16.1 ± 3.4) min] and fluoroscopy time [(8.1 ± 3.3) s] in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group [(26.4 ± 5.4) min and (25.2 ± 7.4) s], and the pin insertions [1 (1, 2) times] and intraoperative blood loss [(10.5 ± 6.4) mL] in the former were significantly less than those in the latter [6 (3, 8) times and (24.8 ± 6.7) mL] (all P<0.05). Postoperatively, the sacroiliac screw position was excellent in 18 cases and good in 2 in the observation group while excellent in 14 cases, good in 2 and poor in 2 in the control group; the fracture reduction was excellent in 12 cases, good in one and fair in one in the observation group while excellent in 10 cases, good in one and fair in one in the control group, showing insignificant differences in the above comparisons ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference either in the Harris hip score at the final follow-up between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with conventional manual insertion of iliosacral screws, emergency iliosacral screw fixation assisted by TiRobot can effectively decrease surgical time and reduce operative invasion due to a higher accuracy rate of screw insertion.

Objective:To compare the perioperative data between the pararectus and ilioinguinal approaches in the internal fixation of acetabular fractures.Methods:A randomized controlled trial was conducted to enroll 74 patients with acetabular fracture who were admitted to Department of Orthopaedic Trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from June 2018 to January 2021. They were randomly divided into 2 groups. In group A of 37 cases, there were 28 males and 9 females with an age of (55.8±15.2) years, and 10 anterior column fractures, 7 anterior+posterior hemi-transverse fractures, one transverse fracture, 3 T-shaped fractures and 16 both column fractures according to Letournel-Judet classification. In group B of 37 cases, there were 28 males and 9 females with an age of (49.4±14.6) years, and 8 anterior column fractures, 6 anterior+ posterior hemi-transverse fractures, 2 transverse fractures, 2 T-shaped fractures and 19 both column fractures according to Letournel-Judet classification. Group A was subjected to open reduction and plate fixation via the pararectus approach while group B to open reduction and plate fixation via the ilioinguinal approach. The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative reduction and perioperative complications.Results:There were no significant differences in baseline data between the 2 groups, showing comparability between them ( P>0.05). The operation time in group A [150 (120, 180) min] was significantly shorter than that in group B [180 (150, 225) min] ( P<0.05). There were no significance differences between the 2 groups in intraoperative blood loss [800 (600, 1, 000) mL versus 1, 000(600, 1, 300) mL], rate of good to excellent reduction [91.9%(34/37) versus 78.4%(29/37)], or incidence of complications [24.3%(9/37) versus 45.9%(17/37)] ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with the ilioinguinal approach, the pararectus approach can reduce operation time significantly in the internal fixation of acetabular fractures.

Objective:To understand the social support, social network, and sexual behavior characteristics of foreigners living in Guangzhou, analyze factors relating to aspects of online social interactions and sexual behaviors of foreigners in Guangzhou, and provide references for targeted HIV intervention services for foreigners.Methods:A cross-sectional survey (both online and offline), among those who met the inclusion criteria was conducted between November 2019 and January 2020. Data were collected on demographics, social support, online social interactions, sexual behaviors, and so on. Statistics were compiled to analyze the factors that may influence casual sexual behaviors.Results:A total of 434 participants were included in the study (241 offline and 193 online). The majority of the participants were male 68.4% (297/434), age (31.0±8.8) years old, African 79.0% (343/434), business people 46.5% (202/434), students 48.2% (209/434), who have business partners and family members in China were 59.4% (258/434) and 28.1% (122/434) separately. They also had the following features: less than 10 close friends 57.1% (248/434); spend 1-3 hours on social applications per day 43.3% (188/434), had casual sexual behaviors in the last 3 months 15.2% (55/363). Multiple logistic regression model analysis showed that compared with those who used social applications for less than 1 hour per day, participants who used social applications for more than 6 hours per day were more likely to have casual sexual behaviors in the last 3 months ( OR=3.63, 95% CI: 1.31-10.08). Conclusions:Participants who used social applications for a longer period every day were more likely to have casual sexual behaviors among foreigners in Guangzhou. Good use of social applications for health promotion and education of HIV can increase the health awareness of foreigners in China.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of HIV testing behavior among foreigners in Guangzhou, and provide a reference for promoting HIV testing and intervention services in foreigners.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted from November 2019 to January 2020 among 230 eligible foreigners selected in Guangzhou through convenient sampling method in the form of one-to-one questionnaire interview, HIV testing behaviors and related influencing factors were described and analyzed with χ2 test and multivariate logistic regression model. Results:A total of 230 foreigners were included in the study, in whom 156 were males (67.8%), 217 were from Africa (94.3%), 138 (60.0%) were with education level of university and above, 169 (73.5%) were in business, 47 (20.4%) were students, 132 (57.4%) had cumulative residence >12 months in Guangzhou and 113 (49.1%) had health examination in China in the past 6 months. In these foreigners, the rate of AIDS-related knowledge awareness was 76.0%, the proportion of condom use in the last sex was 39.6%(89/225) and 47.8%(110/230) received HIV tests in the past 3 months. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed, the influencing factors of HIV testing behavior in the past 3 months included cumulative residence ≤12 months (compared with cumulative residence >12 months, OR=3.12, 95 %CI: 1.49-6.56), health examination in China in the past 6 months (compared to those who had not, OR=2.53, 95 %CI: 1.17-5.48), awareness of HIV testing and consulting service in Guangzhou (compared with those who had no awareness, OR=3.65, 95 %CI: 1.71-7.78). Conclusions:Some foreigners in Guangzhou had relatively low rates of HIV testing and condom use. Those who pay attention to their own health status and know well about HIV testing and consulting services are more likely to receive HIV testing, foreigners in Guangzhou should be encouraged to receive HIV testing. Their self-testing awareness should be improved.

Objective: To understand the epidemiologic features of the rabies in Xishuang banna prefecture of Yunnan province, China in 2008-2017 and the viral molecular-evolution characteristics. Methods: The data of rabies case questionnaire were collected. The brain tissue samples from mad dogs, suspicious sick dogs and human brain tissue, saliva and cerebrospinal fluid samples from rabies patients were collected in Xishuangbanna. Coding region of nucleoprotein and glycoprotein genes were amplified by RT-PCR and sequenced. Homology and phylogenetic analysis were performed using the relevant bioinformatics software. Results: A total of 62 cases of human rabies were occurred in 28 districts of the 3 counties, Xishuangbanna prefecture in 2008-2017. Of them, 37 cases in Jinghong county, 15 in Menghai county and 10 in Mengla county. In which 48 cases were bitten by domestic dogs (77.42%), 11 cases were bitten by wild dogs (17.74%). Rabies case was occurred every year in the past decade. The seasonal incidence was not obvious. The majority of patients were aged from 30 to 59 years-old, with the youngest 1 year-old and the eldest 91 year-old. The male to female ratio was 1.70∶1, most cases were farmers. The nucleotide sequences of nucleoprotein gene of 9 virus strains (7 from Jinghong, 1 from Menghai and 1 from Mengla) were obtained from the samples of dogs and patients. Homology and phylogenetic analyses indicated that the 5 strains belonged to clade China-Ⅰ, 3 clade China-Ⅱ and 1 clade China-Ⅵ. The nucleotide sequences of glycoprotein gene of 5 virus strains (3 from Jinghong, 1 from Menghai and 1 from Mengla) were obtained from these positive samples, and all were clade China-Ⅰ, it is same with nucleoprotein genes analysis result from these 5 virus strains. These China-Ⅰ and China-Ⅱ strains from Xishuangbanna have a closer genetic relationship with same clade strains isolated from Pu’er and other prefectures of Yunnan province as well as Sichuan, Guizhou and Guangxi. The China-Ⅵ strain from Xishuangbanna share high homology and genetic relationship with China-Ⅵ strains isolated from southwestern Yunnan and neighbouring countries such as Myanmar, Laos and Vietnam in recent years. Conclusions In Xishuangbanna, rabies mainly occurred in rural area and domestic dog was the main source of transmission. These RABV clades China-Ⅰ, China-Ⅱ and China-Ⅵ were found in this region and the China-Ⅰ was principal clade. The transmission source of China-Ⅰ and China-Ⅱ were from adjacent areas in the province and China-Ⅵ was from Myanmar and Laos.
