Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of robot-assisted screw fixation for unstable pelvic ring multifocal fractures.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 76 patients with unstable pelvic fractures treated with orthopaedic robot-assisted screw fixation in the Trauma Center of the Affiliated Central Hospital of Shandong First Medical University from January 2015 to June 2022, including 43 males and 33 females, aged 52.53±13.68 years (range, 16-87 years). There were 43 cases of falling injuries from high places, 22 cases of traffic accidents, 11 cases of crushing injuries and heavy objects. Fifty-five patients were employed before the injury, while 21 were not. Fractures were classified according to the Tile classification, with 72 cases classified as type B and 4 cases as type C. Robot-assisted fixation techniques included internal fixator (INFIX), anterior ring screws, sacroiliac screws, and LC-II screws. Intraoperative blood loss, fluoroscopy frequency, surgical time, and the success rate of initial guidewire placement were recorded. Fracture reduction quality was evaluated using the Matta criteria, and postoperative pelvic function recovery was assessed using the Majeed criteria.Results:A total of 150 surgical procedures were performed on 76 patients, including 34 cases of INFIX fixation, 48 cases of anterior ring screws, 61 cases of sacroiliac joint screws, and 7 cases of LC-II screws. The mean intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency was 46.63±17.50 times (range, 15-93 times). Intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency varied among different fixation techniques, with INFIX group at 16.44±4.32 times, LC-II group at 21.59±5.80 times, anterior ring screws group at 29.44±11.65 times, and sacroiliac screws group at 23.10±11.87 times. The intraoperative blood loss was 20 (10, 47.5) ml (range, 5-300 ml), and the surgical time was 105 (86, 150) min (range, 30-290 min). The mean surgical time varied among different fixation techniques. All patients were followed up for an average of 6.46±2.26 months (range, 3-16 months). Clinical healing was achieved in all patients within 6 months, with an average time of 3.14±0.50 months. At the last follow-up, fracture reduction quality assessed by the Matta score was excellent in 21 cases and good in 43 cases, with an excellent/good rate of 84% (64/76). The Majeed score was 81.82±9.14 points (range, 50-92 points). For patients who were employed before the injury, the Majeed score was 86.55±4.85 points (range, 60-92 points), with 49 cases rated as excellent, 5 cases as good, and 1 case as fair. For patients who were not employed before the injury, the Majeed score was 69.43±5.34 points (range, 50-73 points), with 18 cases rated as excellent, 2 cases as good, and 1 case as fair. The overall excellent and good rate was 97% (74/76). Among patients who underwent INFIX internal fixation, 8 cases experienced lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injury postoperatively, all of which recovered sensation after 3 months; 1 case using LC-II screws experienced screw loosening postoperatively and was advised to reduce activity, then the screw was removed after fracture healing at 6 months postoperatively; 1 case using anterior ring channel screws experienced surgical site infection postoperatively, which was controlled after debridement.Conclusion:In the treatment of unstable pelvic ring multiple fractures, robot-assisted screw fixation has less blood loss, less fluoroscopy times, high success rate of planning guide needle, satisfactory reduction quality and postoperative function.

OBJECTIVE To comprehensively evaluate four weekly preparations of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist （GLP-1RA） marketed in China，and to provide evidence for hospitals to optimize drug catalogs and clinical rational drug use. METHODS Mini health technology assessment method was used to establish detailed evaluation rules according to A Quick Guideline for Drug Evaluation and Selection in Chinese Medical Institutions， and conduct comprehensive evaluation of four GLP- 1RA weekly preparations from aspects of pharmaceutical characteristics， effectiveness， safety， economy and other attributes. RESULTS Mini health technology assessment scores of the four GLP-1RA weekly preparations from high to low were dulaglutide 78.60 points， semaglutide 77.35 points，polyethylene glycol loxenatide 67.40 points， and exenatide microspheres 65.50 points， respectively. Dulaglutide had advantages in reducing blood sugar， arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease， kidney benefits， and cost- effectiveness. Semaglutide had advantages in reducing blood sugar and weight loss， but its cost-effectiveness was lower than that of dulaglutide. Exenatide microspheres had advantages in the use of children， but its daily average treatment cost is the highest. Polyethylene glycol loxenatide needed further clinical evidence. CONCLUSIONS Four GLP-1RA weekly preparations all have high pharmaceutical comprehensive scores. Dulaglutide and semaglutide may have more comprehensive pharmaceutical value among them， while the use of exenatide microspheres for children is unique.

Objective:To learn about the epidemic situation and trend of human brucellosis in Menyuan Hui Autonomous County (referred to as Menyuan County) of Qinghai Province, and to provide reference for formulating brucellosis prevention and control measures in Menyuan County.Methods:Data on human brucellosis in Menyuan County reported by the Infectious Disease Reporting Information Management System of China Disease Control and Prevention Information System from 2013 to 2020 were collected and analyzed by descriptive epidemiological analysis (three distribution).Results:A total of 186 cases of brucellosis were confirmed from 2013 to 2020, with an average annual incidence of 14.553/100 000. The annual incidence rate was increasing year by year(χ 2trend = 22.08, P = 0.002). The cases were distributed in 67 villages of 12 towns; cases were more common in the age group of 15-< 65 years old (96.24%, 179/186), and there were more men than women cases (sex ratio was 3.89∶1.00, 148/38). Conclusions:The incidence rate of brucellosis cases in Menyuan County is increasing year by year, and the scope of its impact is constantly expanding. A multi-sectoral joint prevention and control mechanism should be established to strengthen management, increase the prevention and control of brucellosis, and stop the spread of the epidemic to surrounding counties and cities.

Objective:Laparoscopic surgery for cervical cancer has the advantages of little blood loss and rapid recovery,but its therapeutic effect is still controversial.This study aims to analyze the surgical procedure and clinical efficacy of tumor-free laparoscopic radical hysterectomy without a uterine manipulator for early-stage cervical cancer,and to explore the indications of laparoscopic surgery for cervical cancer. Methods:This study was a retrospective study.The data of patients who underwent radical hysterectomy for early-stage cervical cancer admitted to Hunan Provincial Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital from July 2019 to December 2021 were collected.According to 2018 the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics(FIGO)clinical staging,all patients were in IA1 with lymphovascular invasion,IA2,and IB1 stage.Among them,45 patients underwent tumor-free laparoscopic radical hysterectomy without a uterine manipulator(laparoscopy group)and 16 patients underwent open surgery(open surgery group).Patients were followed up for 12-41 months.The differences between the 2 groups in terms of operative time,bleeding volume,extent of surgical resection,surgical complications,and prognosis were compared and analyzed. Results:Compared to the open surgery group,the laparoscopy group had significantly shorter operation time and less intraoperative blood loss(both P＜0.001).There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in terms of the length of excised uterosacral ligaments,cardinal ligaments,vagina,and the number of excised lymph nodes(all P＞0.05).The incidence of postoperative complications did not differ significantly between the groups(P＞0.05).No death or recurrence occurred in the 2 groups during the follow-up period.The overall survival rate and disease-free survival rate were both 100%. Conclusion:For early-stage cervical cancer with a diameter≤2 cm,tumor-free laparoscopic radical hysterectomy without a uterine manipulator is safe and feasible,and the short-term outcomes is no less than that of open surgery.

The clinical data of 120 patients admitted to our hospital with renal stones treated by flexible ureteroscopy (FURS) and the imaging-related data measured by virtual reality technology were retrospectively analysed. The results of the univariate analysis showed that stone surface area (S), renal pelvis volume (P), length of calyces funnel (L), pelvic calyceal height (H) and essence of stone (E) were closely related to stone-free rate. The H. L.P.E.S. score was constructed to predict stone-free rate after FURS based on the above factors, and the area under the receiver aperating characteristic curve for the H. L.P.E.S. and S. O.L.V.E. scoring systems was 0.921 and 0.754 respectively.The H. L.P.E.S. scoring system has higher predictive value.
