Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) can lead to lower back pain and may be even accompanied by scoliosis, neurological dysfunction and other complications, which will affect the daily activities and life quality of patients. Vertebral augmentation is an effective treatment method for OVCF, but it cannot correct unbalance of bone metabolism or improve the osteoporotic status, causing complications like lower back pain, limited spinal activities and vertebral refracture. The post-operative systematic and standardized rehabilitation treatments can improve curative effect and therapeutic efficacy of anti-osteoporosis, reduce risk of vertebral refracture, increase patient compliance and improve quality of life. Since there still lack relevant clinical treatment guidelines for postoperative rehabilitation treatments following vertebral augmentation for OVCF, the current treatments are varied with uneven therapeutic effect. In order to standardize the postoperative rehabilitation treatment, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized relevant experts to refer to relevant literature and develop the "Guideline for postoperative rehabilitation treatment following vertebral augmentation for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (2022 version)" based on the clinical guidelines published by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) as well as on the principles of scientificity, practicality and advancement. The guideline provided evidence-based recommendations on 10 important issues related to postoperative rehabilitation treatments of OVCF.

Thyroid nodules are very common in the clinical practice. Fine needle aspiration ( FNA) is a major method for the final diagnosis of thyroid nodules. This review tried to cover the definition, current status, clinical significance, indications, contraindications, ultrasound evaluation, as well as preparations, steps, molecular diagnosis, cytology diagnosis, and possible pitfalls of this technique. Our purpose is trying to make this procedure universalized and standardized in order to serve more patients by providing clinicians with some helpful references and advice.

OBJECTIVE To find out the relationship between mucoepidermoid carcinoma and Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection.METHODS Nested polymerase chain reaction (Nested PCR) was adapted to detect HPV DNA from 51 tissues of mucoepidermoid carcinoma using consensus primers, 9 tissues of chronic parotitis were as control.RESULTS HPV DNA was detected in 37 of total 51 mucoepidermoid carcinoma tissues, the detection rate was up to 72.5%, comparatively, it was 22.2% (2 of 9) in chronic parotitis tissues. The HPV DNA detection rate of mucoepidermoid carcinoma tissues was statistically higher than that of chronic parotitis tissues (χ2=8.517, P=0.004).CONCLUSION The results suggested that the HPV infection may cause mucoepidermoid carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the safety of Renaissance spine robot assisted system in spinal injury.Methods From March 2014 to May 2016,38 patients with spinal disease received spinal surgery assisted by spine robot system.They were 20 males and 18 females,with an average age of 42 years (range,from 12 to 69 years).There were 10 lumbar fractures,8 thoracic fractures and 20 spinal deformities.Pedicle screw implantation was conducted in 30 patients (PS group) and percutaneous vertebroplasty in 8 (PV group).One side was chosen randomly to use Mazor spine robot assisted system (assisted group) and the opposite side the conventional method (non-assisted group).The anteroposterior and lateral X-rays and CT scan of the lumbar and/or thoracic spine were performed in all patients after surgery.The precision of pedicle screws implantation in PS group was evaluated by the Abul-Kasimhierarchy grading system;location of the puncture trajectory,time used for puncture and radiation exposure time in PV group were evaluated.Results 208 pedicle screws were implanted in PS group,including 120 lumbar ones and 88 thoracic ones.For lumbar pedicle screw implantation,the excellent to good rate was 95.0％ (57/60) in the assisted group,significantly higher than that in the non-assisted group (80.0％,48/60) (P ＜ 0.05).For thoracic pedicle screw implantation,the excellent to good rate was 95.5％ (42/44) in the assisted group,significantly higher than that in the non-assisted group (77.3％,34/44) (P ＜ 0.05).There were 24 puncture trajectories in 8 patients in PV group,showing no pedicle penetration or cement leaking in any case.The mean time used for puncture was 5.5 ± 1.4 min in the assisted group,significantly shorter than that in the non-assisted group (17.8 ± 7.5 min) (P ＜ 0.05);the X-ray exposure time was 14.0 ± 4.0 s in the assisted group,significantly shorter than that in the non-assisted group (22.4 ± 6.0 s) (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Renaissance spine robot-assisted system deserves more clinical application,because in spinal surgery it can make pedicle screw implantation more precise and safer,and can reduce operation time and X-ray exposure time in percutaneous vertebroplasty.

Objective To study the mechanics of improved memory alloy fixators for salvage of periprosthetic femoral fracture (PFF) after hip arthroplasty in the elderly.Methods Thirty countrymen fresh cadaveric femurs with no pathological defect,fracture,deformity or tumor were randomly divided into experimental group and control group with 15 femurs in each according to the random number table.A model of Vancouver type B1 periprosthetic femoral fracture following hip arthroplasty was induced.The fracture was treated with modified memory alloy embracing fixators in experimental group;instead general memory alloy embracing fixators in control group.All specimens were tested biomechanically.Results Under the same mechanical loading,the two groups showed respective 30％ and 48％ maximum differences in stress value and displacement.Results in three-point bending test did not differ significantly between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05),but there were significant differences in axial compression and torsion test (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01).Conclusion The improved memory alloy embracing fixators present better resistance to compression and torsion compared to the general fixators.
