BACKGROUND:Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture is a common fracture secondary to osteoporosis.At present,there is no effective prediction index and method for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the predictive effect of the comprehensive index of lumbar vertebral body bone strength on osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture. METHODS:233 patients with osteoporosis were divided into a fracture group and a non-fracture group according to whether a vertebral fracture occurred.The demography,body mass index,vertebral bone mineral density and other details were collected.Lateral X-ray films of the lumbar spine were photographed.The vertebral body width,vertebral body length,sacral slope,pelvic tilt,pelvic incidence,lumbar compressive strength index and the lumbar impact strength index were measured,calculated,and analyzed by univariate and multivariate,and the receiver operating characteristic curve was analyzed.The survival analysis was conducted according to the cut-off value. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)All patients were followed up for 2-4 years,with an average of 3.1 years.During the follow-up period,99 cases(38 cases of L1 vertebral body,61 cases of L2 vertebral body)had fractures(fracture group),and 134 cases(52 cases of L1 vertebral body,82 cases of L2 vertebral body)had no fractures(non-fracture group).Univariate analysis showed that there was no significant difference in age,sex,height,body mass,body mass index and fracture segment between the two groups(P>0.05).(2)Lumbar compressive strength index and lumbar impact strength index in the fracture group were lower than those in the non-fracture group(P<0.05).Pelvic incidence and pelvic tilt in the fracture group were higher than those in the non-fracture group(P<0.05).(3)Multivariate analysis showed that lumbar compressive strength index,lumbar impact strength index and pelvic tilt were risk factors for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures(P<0.05).(4)Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the cutoff values of vertebral bone mineral density,lumbar compressive strength index,lumbar impact strength index,pelvic tilt and pelvic incidence were 0.913 5 g/cm2,1.932,0.903,21.5° and 55°,respectively;areas under the curve were 0.630,0.800,0.911,0.633 and 0.568,respectively.(5)According to the survival analysis(with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture as the end point),the average survival time of the patients with lumbar impact strength index≥0.903 was significantly longer than that of the patients with lumbar impact strength index<0.903(P<0.05).(6)These findings conclude that the comprehensive index of lumbar vertebral body bone strength is more accurate than the bone mineral density of the vertebral body and spine-pelvis sagittal parameters in predicting osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures,which is helpful for early prevention and treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.

BACKGROUND:Osteoporosis vertebral compression fracture is a common fracture secondary to osteoporosis,and there is currently a lack of effective predictive indicators and methods for osteoporosis vertebral compression fracture. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the predictive effects of paravertebral muscle degeneration,functional cross-sectional area,and percentage of fat infiltration on osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. METHODS:The 224 patients with osteoporosis diagnosed from January 2018 to June 2022 were included.They were followed up for more than 2 years.They were divided into fracture group and non-fracture group according to the presence and absence of vertebral fracture.The detailed information of demographics,body mass index,bone mineral density and so on were collected.The functional cross-sectional area and percentage of fat infiltration of bilateral Psoas major muscle and extensor dorsi(Erector spinae muscles muscle and multifidus muscle)at the level of lower endplate of L2 vertebral body were measured and calculated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)224 patients were ultimately included,of which 126 had fractures as the fracture group and 98 had no fractures as the non-fracture group.There was no statistically significant difference in age,gender,height,body mass,body mass index,and fracture segment between the two groups(P>0.05).(2)The bone mineral density of the fracture group was significantly lower than that of the non-fracture group(P<0.05).Functional cross-sectional areas of Psoas major muscle and extensor dorsi in the fracture group were significantly lower than those in the non-fracture group(P<0.05).The percentage of fat infiltration of the extensor dorsi in the fracture group was significantly higher than that in the non-fracture group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in percentage of fat infiltration of Psoas major muscle between the two groups(P>0.05).(3)Receiver operating characteristic analysis showed that the vertebral bone mineral density,percentage of fat infiltration of extensor dorsi,functional cross-sectional area of extensor dorsi and percentage of fat infiltration of Psoas major muscle were 0.903 g/cm2,35.426%,418.875 mm2,and 6.375%,respectively.The areas under curve were 0.634,0.755,0.876,and 0.585,respectively.(4)These findings indicate that paravertebral muscle degeneration is strongly associated with the occurrence of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.The functional cross-sectional area of extensor dorsi muscle can effectively predict the occurrence of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures,which is helpful for early prevention and treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.

Objective To investigate the correlation between lung Point-of-Care ultrasound score and clinical indicators by analyzing the features of Point-of-Care ultrasound in acute COVID-19.Methods 30 COVID-19 patients admitted to the Affili-ated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College were selected,lung Point-of-Care ultrasound sequential scan was conducted in pa-tients with the BLUE-PLUS regimen and the lung Point-of-Care ultrasound semi-quantitative scoring was performed.The clinical indicators of partial pressure of carbon dioxide,anion gap,PH value,standard bicarbonate,oxygen partial pressure,oxygen satu-ration,the lymphocyte percentage(LYM% ),the lymphocytic absolute value(LYM#),the clinical typing,hospital stay,etc were collected.The lung Point-of-Care ultrasound score of acute COVID-19 patients in different clinical typing was compared and the features of Point-of-Care ultrasound in acute COVID-19 were analyzed.The ROC curve was constructed to analyze the effec-tiveness of lung Point-of-Care ultrasound score for the typing of normal type and(critical)severe type.Results In 30 cases of COVID-19 patients during the acute period,there were 29 patients with at least one lung point involvement on both sides(96.7% ),1 case with at least one lung point involvement on one side(3.3% )and 15 cases showed Lung consolidation＞1cm at least one lung point.Comparison of the same lung point between the left and right lung was performed and there was statistical-ly significant difference in the total scores between the left and right lung(P＜0.05).Comparison of total scores of different lung points in patients with different clinical types showed there was statistically significant difference in the total scores of left lung,the total scores of right lung,the total scores of whole lung between normal type and critical type(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)for the diagnosis of normal and(critical)severe types based on the total lung scores is 0.870.The total scores of the left lung,right lung,and whole lung were not correlated with LYM% ,LYM#,and anion gap(P＞0.05)were positively cor-related with clinical typing and hospital stay,and negatively correlated with standard bicarbonate(P＜0.05).The total scores of the left lung and whole lung were negatively correlated with PH value,oxygen partial pressure,and oxygen saturation,but posi-tively correlated with partial pressure of carbon dioxide(P＜0.05).The total scores of the right lung was not correlated with PH value,partial pressure of carbon dioxide,oxygen partial pressure,and oxygen saturation(P＞0.05).Conclusion There were differences in Point-of-Care ultrasound features among patients with different clinical types of acute COVID-19,Lung Point-of-Care ultrasound semi-quantitative scoring is correlated with pH value,partial pressure of carbon dioxide,standard bicarbonate,ox-ygen partial pressure,oxygen saturation,clinical typing and hospital stay.The patients of critical type have higher scores,lung Point-of-Care ultrasound is expected to be used for clinical typing and condition evaluation of acute COVID-19 patients.

Objective:To identify early potential risk factors for sepsis-associated liver injury and to provide a reference for early clinical identification and intervention.Methods:The clinical data of septic patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) in the Affiliated Changzhou No. 2 People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from March 2020 to April 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with sepsis were categorized into the liver injury group and the non-liver injury group according to whether liver injury occurred or not, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to explore the risk factors for SALI, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to assess its predictive effect for SALI, and performed subgroup analyses basing on the cut-off point.Results:Among 530 eligible patients, 403 patients were included. The incidence of liver injury was 39.45% in 159 cases with liver injury and 244 cases without liver injury. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum prealbumin, lactate and lactate dehydrogenase were independent risk factors for SALI. ROC curve analysis showed that all single indicators had some predictive value for SALI, the area under the curve was prealbumin (AUC: 0.752, 95% CI: 0.703-0.801), lactate (AUC: 0.679, 95% CI: 0.627-0.732), lactate dehydrogenase (AUC: 0.664, 95% CI: 0.611-0.718), respectively, The AUC for predicting SALI by lactate/prealbumin ratio (L/P) and lactate dehydrogenase/prealbumin ratio were 0.808 (95% CI: 0.766-0.850) and 0.795 (95% CI: 0.750-0.840), respectively, with the best efficacy of L/P in predicting SALI. Subgroup analyses showed that the incidence of liver injury was significantly higher in septic patients with L/P ≥0.23 than that in septic patients with L/P <0.23, at the same time, the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II score, shock probability, and hospital mortality rate also increased accordingly, the differences were all statistically significant (all P < 0.001). Conclusions:L/P is early independent risk factor of SALI, for sepsis patients with L/P≥0.23 should be alerted to the development of liver injuryis.

Objectives:To explore the factors that may be associated with the occurrence of major adverse cardiac events(MACEs)after posterior lumbar spinal fusion in patients with degenerative lumbar spinal disor-ders.Methods:The clinical data of 96 patients who underwent lumbar spinal fusion for degenerative lumbar spinal disorders at Beijing Anzhen Hospital from January 2018 to July 2023 were retrospectively analyzed,53 males and 44 females were included with the average age of 64.1±10.1 years.The patients were grouped ac-cording to whether MACEs(cardiac arrest,new or worsening arrhythmia,acute myocardial infarction,or angina pectoris and heart failure)occurred within 1 year after lumbar spine fusion surgery.The general conditions[American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA)classification,Charlson comorbidity index(CCI),revised cardiac risk index(RCRI),etc.],preoperative examinations(hematocrit,serum albumin,left ventricular ejection fraction,etc.),surgical parameters(Mirza invasiveness of the surgery index,operative time,estimated blood loss,etc.),and intraoperative monitoring indexes(baseline mean artery pressure,urine output,autonomous blood transfusion,etc.)were compared between the two groups.Results:The CCI index,RCRI index,echocardiograph E-wave maximal flow rate,estimated intraoperative blood loss,baseline mean arterial pressure,and intraoperative au-tologous blood transfusion in the group without MACEs were significantly lower than those in the group with(0.9±1.0 vs 1.6±1.5;1.5±0.7 vs 2.0±0.8;70.3±18.2 vs 82.6±36.9;705±560.6 vs 1193±1332.9;103.6±15.9 vs 112.1±12.1;399.5±368.3 vs 637.6±470.5),with statistically significant differenccs(P＜0.05).Multifactorial logistic regression analysis suggested that both the CCI index and estimated intraoperative blood loss were correlated with the MACEs statistically(OR=1.968,P=0.007;OR=1.001,P=0.023).Conclusions:The CCI and operative blood loss may be associated with the MACEs after posterior lumbar spinal fusion in patients with degenera-tive lumbar spinal disorders.

The incidence and detection rates of benign and low-grade malignant pancreatic tumors have risen yearly.For patients with such tumors,traditional radical resection procedures often result in excessive loss of normal pancreatic parenchyma,leading to complications such as postoperative insufficiency of both exocrine and endocrine functions.Studies have shown that functional-preserving surgeries,such as minimally invasive enucleation or partial resection surgeries,can maximize the protection of patients'pancreatic function and improve long-term quality of life.However,for some tumors deep within the pancreatic parenchyma,accurately locating the tumor and protecting the pancreatic duct pose challenges.Intraoperative ultrasound(IOUS)has become an ideal intraoperative imaging tool,often referred to as the surgeon's"third eye"because of its portability,ability to provide real-time high-resolution information,non-reliance on ionizing radiation,and the fact that it does not require special patient preparation.With advancements in technology,the application scope of IOUS has expanded beyond its initially limited diagnostic role to various surgical applications,including identifying non-palpable lesions,guiding surgical strategies,and staging tumors.In the current era of minimally invasive and precision surgery,the proficiency of surgeons in using IOUS has become an important issue.This article reviews the history of IOUS applications,summarizes the advantages and basic usage methods of robotic IOUS,and shares techniques for applying IOUS in robot-assisted precise resection of pancreatic tumors.
