Middle-aged and elderly patients with femoral neck fracture often suffer from basic diseases. Conservative treatment will significantly increase the incidence of complications. At present, surgical treatment is mostly advocated. Internal fixation is one of the effective treatment methods for middle-aged and elderly patients with femoral neck fracture. It has the advantages of improving hip joint function, accelerating patient recovery, and improving patient quality of life. At present, there are many choices of internal fixation in the world, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, and there is no unified standard. Different surgical methods can be selected according to various factors such as fracture type, patient′s physical condition and surgical auxiliary technology. This article reviews the clinical progress of internal fixation for femoral neck fractures in middle-aged and elderly patients from four aspects: the characteristics of femoral neck fractures in middle-aged and elderly patients, common internal fixation methods, 3D printing guide plate auxiliary technology and artificial intelligence auxiliary technology.

Objective To compare the effects of smoking and non smoking on postoperative pain of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods Sixty patients having underwent selective laparoscopic cholecystectom were divided into smoking group and non smoking group by random digits table with 30 cases each. In smoking group, 14 cases quitted smoking within 1 week before operation. The Fagerstrom test of nicotine dependence (FTND) was evaluated before operation in smoking group, and FTND ≥ 6 scores was in 11 cases. The visual analog score (VAS), Bruggrmarm comfort score (BCS), sedation-agitation score (SAS), immediately, 15 min, and 30 min after entering postanesthesia care unit (PACU) and leaving PACU was evaluated. The operation time, anesthesia time, wake up time, extubation time, PACU time, using rate of remedial measures and untoward reaction were recorded. Results There were no statistical differences in operation time, anesthesia time, wake up time, extubation time, SAS and incidence of untoward reaction between 2 groups (P>0.05). The PACU time and using rate of remedial measures in smoking group were significantly higher than those in non smoking group:(39.7 ± 5.1) min vs. (31.3 ± 6.1) min and 30.0% (9/30) vs. 0, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). The VAS immediately, 15 min and 30 min after entering PACU and leaving PACU in smoking group was significantly higher than that in non smoking group: (2.90 ± 0.85) scores vs. (1.00 ± 0.83) scores, (2.70 ± 0.47) scores vs. (0.73 ± 0.69) scores, (2.60 ± 0.56) scores vs. (1.13 ± 0.73) scores, (2.23 ± 0.57) scores vs. (1.13 ± 0.73) scores; and the BCS was significantly lower than that in non smoking group:(1.80 ± 0.61) scores vs. (2.90 ± 0.99) scores, (1.90 ± 0.31) scores vs. (2.87 ± 1.00) scores, (2.10 ± 0.31) scores vs. (2.47 ± 0.82) scores, (2.17 ± 0.38) scores vs. (2.47 ± 0.82) scores, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). The VAS immediately after entering PACU in patients of FTND ≥ 6 scores was significantly higher than that in patients of FTND<6 scores:(3.6 ± 0.7) scores vs. (2.5 ± 0.7) scores, the BCS was significantly lower than that in patients of FTND <6 scores:(1.5 ± 0.5) scores vs. (2.0 ± 0.6) scores, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). The VAS immediately after entering PACU in patients of non- quit smoking was significantly higher than that in patients of quit smoking: (3.4 ± 0.7) scores vs. (2.4 ± 0.6) scores, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). Conclusions Smokers have more severe postoperative pain in laparoscopic cholecystectomy and higher postoperative opioid requirement than nonsmokers. Quit smoking before surgery will reduce postoperative pain and related complications. Appropriate increase of analgesic drugs can prevent postoperative pain in patients with smoking.

BACKGROUND:With the increasing of aging, the incidence and mortality of osteoporotic hip fracture wil rise. It is of great significance to study the pathogenesis and preventing method. At present, finite element analysis can be used to judge fracture, only for the distribution trend of fracture failure in the starting point or section view, but it cannot completely reflect actual situation of fracture. OBJECTIVE:To build the fracture model of the femoral neck fracture caused by fal ing-induced external force based on the finite element analysis LS-DYNA software, and to evaluate the effect of rupture. METHODS:CT image data of one case of elderly femoral neck fracture were col ected. Using Mimics software, region growth of the contralateral area, cavity fil ing, editing, rebuilding the contralateral proximal femur model were conducted. Data were imported in Hypermesh and LS-DYNA software for meshing, and defining material properties. The failure parameters and interfacial properties were set. The load and force boundary constraints simulating the fal ing were simulated. The model of femoral neck fracture was calculated. Rupture effect was evaluated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The validity of contralateral proximal femur three-dimensional model was verified. Based on the finite element analysis software LS-DYNA, the femoral neck fracture model matched the actual fracture line to a degree of close to 83%. (2) Above results confirmed that based on the finite element analysis, LS-DYNA software can wel simulate the femoral neck fracture, which provides experimental basis to the exploration of femoral neck fracture classification mechanism caused by different fal ing-induced external forces.
