Objective To explore the application effect of new improved 3D printing individualized guidance(3D psi)in total knee arthroplasty(TKA)for knee osteoarthritis(KOA).Methods A total of 100 patients with KOA in 920th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force,PLA from January 2021 to January 2022 were selected,and were divided into 2 groups of 50 patients each using the randomized numerical table method.The control group was treated with conventional TKA,and the study group was treated with new improved 3D psi assisted TKA.The operation conditions,postoperative rehabilitation,complications,prosthesis component position deviation,knee range of motion(ROM),lower limb force line parameters[coronal distal femoral mechanical axis lateral angle(mldfa),lower limb mechanical axis angle(HKA)],gait parameters(percentage of support time,stride,pace),knee function(HSS score),quality of life(AIMS2 score)were observed.Results Com-pared with control group,the amount of intraoperative and postoperative blood loss and drainage volume 2 days after operation were less in the study group,and the operation time and hospital stay were shorter(P<0.05).The deviations of LTC Angle,FFC Angle,HKA Angle,LFC Angle and FTC Angle in the study group were smaller than those in the control group(P<0.05).At 3 months,6 months and 12 months after surgery,the percentage of knee ROM,supporting time,stride length and walking speed of the research group were higher than those of the control group,while the coronal-position mLDFA and HKA were lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).The proportion of WBC and PMN in joint fluid at 3 months,6 months and 12 months after surgery was lower than that in control group(P<0.05).The HSS score of the study group was higher than that of the control group at 3 months,6 months and 12 months after operation,and the AIMS2 score was lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of complications between the study group and the control group(P>0.05).Conclusion The new improved 3D PSI-assisted TKA treatment of KOA can optimize the surgical situation,improve operating accuracy,improve the patient's lower limb alignment,promote limb function recovery,help improve the quality of life,and has high safety.

Purpose: In patients with acute left-sided colonic obstruction, stenting can convert an emergency operation into a semi-elective procedure. However, its use continues to be debated. We performed a cost-effective analysis using our institution’s experiences. Methods: Endoscopic, surgical, and financial details were prospectively collected for patients who presented with acute colonic obstruction and underwent stenting between 2019 and 2022. Outcomes were defined as technical/clinical success and successful surgical resection. The financial cost of stenting was compared with the expected cost without stenting. Results: Forty patients were included, with 29 undergoing definitive resection. The most common pathology was primary colon cancer (27 patients, 93%). Endoscopic stenting had high technical (90%) and clinical (83%) success rates, with low rates of complications such as perforation (2 patients, 7%) and migration (0 patients, 0%). As a bridge to surgery, the median procedure time was 226 minutes and the surgical outcomes also showed a low rate of complications (3 patients, 11%), such as anastomotic leakage (0 patients, 0%), intraabdominal abscesses (2 patients, 7%), and 30-day postoperative mortality (0 patients, 0%). The cumulative costs with colonic stenting were $32,900, while the expected costs with emergency surgery, including stoma reversal, were $40,700 (healthcare cost-savings of $7,800 per person). The difference was mainly due to the avoidance of upfront emergency surgery. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was 0.81, favoring colonic stenting over upfront emergency surgery. Conclusion Colonic stenting as a bridge to surgery is safe and cost-effective for treating left-sided colonic obstruction with high success rates and low complication rates.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical value of DR corneal suture ring localization and CT 3D reconstruction localization of orbital foreign bodies. MethodsRetrospective analysis was performed on patients （51 cases） suspected of ocular foreign bodies admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to December 2020 At the same time， DR corneal suture ring localization and CT three-dimensional reconstruction localization of orbital foreign bodies were performed， and the detection rate of foreign bodies by the two methods was calculated to analyze the location of ocular foreign bodies. ResultsThere were 38 cases of intraorbital foreign body identified by DR corneal suture ring localization method， and 46 cases of intraorbital foreign body identified by CT three-dimensional reconstruction localization method. The accuracy of CT three-dimensional reconstruction localization method was 90.20%， which was higher than that of DR corneal suture ring localization method 74.51% （P<0.05）. Intraocular foreign bodies in 23 cases could be distinguished by DR corneal suture ring localization， and 25 cases by CT 3D reconstruction localization. The maximum diameter of intraocular foreign bodies that could be distinguished by CT 3D reconstruction localization was （2.65±0.14） mm. The diameter of intraspherical foreign body was （2.94±0.36） mm （P<0.05） lower than that which could be distinguished by DR corneal suture ring localization method. The results of DR corneal suture ring localization of orbital foreign body showed no difference compared with the results of CT 3D reconstruction localization （P>0.05）. Forty cases of high density images inside and outside the eye could be clearly distinguished by CT 3D reconstruction. By using DR corneal suture ring localization method， 23 cases were confirmed to be intraocular high-density shadows， and 15 cases could not be confirmed to be intraocular high-density shadows （P < 0.05）. ConclusionsFor the location of intraorbital foreign bodies， CT three-dimensional reconstruction can be used as a conventional method for locating ocular foreign bodies with high resolution and accuracy， and can detect fine metal particles inside the eyeball. Meanwhile， for a few small foreign bodies in the iris root， ciliary body and lateral suspension ligament， it is necessary to locate orbital foreign bodies with DR corneal suture ring.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the risk factors for neonatal asphyxia in Hubei Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture and establish a nomogram model for predicting the risk of neonatal asphyxia. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted with 613 cases of neonatal asphyxia treated in 20 cooperative hospitals in Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture from January to December 2019 as the asphyxia group, and 988 randomly selected non-asphyxia neonates born and admitted to the neonatology department of these hospitals during the same period as the control group. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to identify risk factors for neonatal asphyxia. R software (4.2.2) was used to establish a nomogram model. Receiver operator characteristic curve, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis were used to assess the discrimination, calibration, and clinical usefulness of the model for predicting the risk of neonatal asphyxia, respectively. RESULTS: Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that minority (Tujia), male sex, premature birth, congenital malformations, abnormal fetal position, intrauterine distress, maternal occupation as a farmer, education level below high school, fewer than 9 prenatal check-ups, threatened abortion, abnormal umbilical cord, abnormal amniotic fluid, placenta previa, abruptio placentae, emergency caesarean section, and assisted delivery were independent risk factors for neonatal asphyxia (P<0.05). The area under the curve of the model for predicting the risk of neonatal asphyxia based on these risk factors was 0.748 (95%CI: 0.723-0.772). The calibration curve indicated high accuracy of the model for predicting the risk of neonatal asphyxia. The decision curve analysis showed that the model could provide a higher net benefit for neonates at risk of asphyxia. CONCLUSIONS The risk factors for neonatal asphyxia in Hubei Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture are multifactorial, and the nomogram model based on these factors has good value in predicting the risk of neonatal asphyxia, which can help clinicians identify neonates at high risk of asphyxia early, and reduce the incidence of neonatal asphyxia.

BACKGROUND: Currently, more and more infertility couples are opting for combined acupuncture to improve success rate of in vitro fertilization (IVF). However, evidence from acupuncture for improving IVF pregnancy outcomes remains a matter of debate. OBJECTIVE: To quantitatively summarized the evidence of the efficacy of acupuncture among women undergoing IVF by means of systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS: Four English (PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Cochrane Register of Controlled Clinical Trials) and Four Chinese databases (Wanfang Databases, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chinese Science and Technology Periodical Database, and SinoMed) were searched from database inception until July 2, 2023. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluated the acupuncture's effects for women undergoing IVF were included. The subgroup analysis was conducted with respect to the age of participants, different acupuncture types, type of control, acupuncture timing, geographical origin of the study, whether or not repeated IVF failure, and acupuncture sessions. Sensitivity analyses were predefifined to explore the robustness of results. The primary outcomes were clinical pregnancy rate (CPR) and live birth rate (LBR), and the secondary outcomes were ongoing pregnancy rate and miscarriage rate. Random effects model with I² statistics were used to quantify heterogeneity. Publication bias was estimated by funnel plots and Egger's tests. RESULTS: A total of 58 eligible RCTs representing 10,968 women undergoing IVF for pregnant success were identifified. Pooled CPR and LBR showed a signifificant difference between acupuncture and control groups [69 comparisons, relative risk (RR) 1.19, 95% confifidence intervals (CI) 1.12 to 1.25, I²=0], extremely low evidence; 23 comparisons, RR 1.11, 95%CI 1.02 to 1.21, I²=14.6, low evidence, respectively). Only transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation showed a positive effect on both CPR (16 comparisons, RR 1.17, 95%CI 1.06 to 1.29; I²=0, moderate evidence) and LBR (9 comparisons, RR 1.20, 95%CI 1.04 to 1.37; I²=8.5, extremely low evidence). Heterogeneity across studies was found and no studies were graded as high-quality evidence. CONCLUSION Results showed that the convincing evidence levels on the associations between acupuncture and IVF pregnant outcomes were relatively low, and the varied methodological design and heterogeneity might inflfluence the fifindings.

ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between marital status and the prevalence of mild cognitive impairment （MCI） and dementia in the community dwelling old adults， so as to provide sociological data basis for the prevention and control of cognitive impairment. MethodsPeople aged 65 and above in urban and rural areas of Hubei Province were selected by cluster random sampling， and face-to-face interviews were conducted in community health service centers to complete general investigation and neuropsychological evaluation， as well as clinical physical examination and laboratory examination. The diagnostic expert panels， including two neuroscientists and two neuropsychologists with specialized knowledge of dementia， diagnosed MCI and dementia according to Petersen's MCI standard and Chinese Diagnostic guidelines for dementia and Cognitive impairment. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the correlation between marital status and MCI and dementia in different age groups. ResultsDuring 2018~2020， 8 221 people completed the full neurocognitive assessment and clinical physical examination， with an average age of （71.96±5.895） years， and 1 953 people， accounting for 23.75% of the total number， were without spouses. The crude prevalence of MCI and dementia in HMACS were 25.98%， 95%CI （24.99%， 26.98%） and 7.24%， 95%CI （6.68%，7.80%）， respectively in total participants. After standardization for age and sex using data from the 2010 population census in Hubei Province， the prevalence of MCI and dementia were 26.28% and 6.98%.The prevalence of MCI and dementia in non-spouse ［28.07%， 95%CI （26.08%， 30.06%）；12.45%， 95%CI （10.99%， 13.91%）］ was significantly higher than that in spouse ［22.85%， 95%CI（21.81%， 23.89%； 5.62%， 95%CI （5.05%， 6.19%）］. Multivariable logistic regression model showed that the rates of MCI and dementia for married men aged 65~69 ［P=0.028， OR=0.639，95%CI（0.429， 0.952）］ and above 80 years ［P=0.004，OR=0.460， 95%CI （0.269， 0.785）］ were significantly lower than those of widowed men. However， there was no statistical difference between the presence or absence of spouses and the prevalence of MCI and dementia in older women. ConclusionsThe prevalence of MCI and dementia is higher in older adults without spouses. Especially for men aged 65~69 and 80 and above， having spouses is important to protect cognitive function.
