RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the probable association between time to admission (TTA) and one-year mortality in geriatric hip fractures. METHODS: Older adult patients with hip fractures were screened between January 2015 and September 2019. The demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients were collected at the largest trauma center in northwest China. TTA can be obtained from the medical record system and converted into a categorical variable. Multivariate binary logistic regression and generalized additive model were used to identify the linear and nonlinear association between TTA and one-year mortality. Analyses were performed using EmpowerStats and the R software. RESULTS: Two thousand three hundred and sixty-one patients who met the criteria were finally included. There were 1618 (68.53%) female and 743 (31.47%) male patients. All patients were divided into three groups according to their TTA. The proportions of patients with low (<=6 h), middle (>6, <=24 h), and high (>24 h) waiting times were 995, 654, and 712, respectively, and the corresponding one-year mortality rates were 62 (6.23%), 72 (11.01%), and 82 (11.52%). We found a curve relationship between TTA and one-year mortality by two-piecewise linear regression, and 9 hours was an inflection point. When TTA was less than 9 hours, the one-year mortality of patients increased by 9% for every 1-hour increase in TTA (OR=1.09, 95%CI: 1.03-1.16; P<0.01). When TTA was greater than 9 hours, the mortality of patients no longer increased with the rise of TTA (OR=1.00, 95%CI:1.00-1.00; P=0.26). CONCLUSION: TTA is a probable predictor of one-year mortality. We found that 9 hours is an inflection point. If TTA is less than 9 hours, the mortality rate of patients will be lower. If it takes more than 9 hours, the mortality will be higher. Therefore, the elderly who are found to have possible hip fractures should be admitted to the hospital as soon as possible.
RESUMO
Background: Cystatin C, a low-molecular-weight protein, belongs to cysteine protease inhibitors produced primarily by nucleated cells. Its serum concentration, independent of sex, age, or muscle mass, is a good predictor of renal dysfunction in older adults. This study evaluated the association between all-cause mortality and preoperative cystatin C levels in hip fractures. Materials and methods: Data describing the demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients were gathered specifically from older individuals who had suffered hip fractures. The study used linear and non-linear multivariate Cox regression models to investigate the association between preoperative cystatin C levels and mortality. The analyses were conducted using the R and EmpowerStats software. Results: In total, two thousand three hundred and ninety-four patients were included in this study. A total of 790 patients (33 %) died of all causes. The mean follow-up was 37.62 months. The preoperative cystatin C was 0.91 ± 0.41 mg/L. Linear multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed a significant association between preoperative cystatin C level and death, with a hazard ratio (HR) of 2.19 (95 % confidence interval [CI]: 1.72-2.79, P < 0.0001). Nevertheless, the correlation between the variables was inconsistent. A cystatin C concentration of 1.62 mg/L marked a significant change in the non-linear relationship. A preoperative cystatin C level below 1.62 mg/L was found to be significantly linked with an increased risk of mortality (HR = 2.60, 95 % CI: 1.92-3.52, P < 0.0001). The mortality reached its highest point when the preoperative cystatin C level was greater than 1.62 mg/L. After that, the mortality risk did not increase further (HR = 1.54, 95 % CI: 0.98-2.42, P = 0.0588). The non-linear relationship remained consistent in the propensity score-matching sensitive analysis. Conclusions: The study found a non-linear relationship between preoperative cystatin C levels and mortality in geriatric hip fractures. This suggests that preoperative cystatin C can be used as a predictor of the risk of death. The registration number is ChiCTR2200057323.
RESUMO
Lower back pain (LBP) is a common degenerative musculoskeletal disease that imposes a huge economic burden on both individuals and society. With the aggravation of social aging, the incidence of LBP has increased globally. Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is the primary cause of LBP. Currently, IDD treatment strategies include physiotherapy, medication, and surgery; however, none can address the root cause by ending the degeneration of intervertebral discs (IVDs). However, in recent years, targeted therapy based on specific molecules has brought hope for treating IDD. The tumor suppressor gene p53 produces a transcription factor that regulates cell metabolism and survival. Recently, p53 was shown to play an important role in maintaining IVD microenvironment homeostasis by regulating IVD cell senescence, apoptosis, and metabolism by activating downstream target genes. This study reviews research progress regarding the potential role of p53 in IDD and discusses the challenges of targeting p53 in the treatment of IDD. This review will help to elucidate the pathogenesis of IDD and provide insights for the future development of precision treatments.
RESUMO
Objective: To evaluate the genetic causality between alcohol intake, smoking, coffee consumption, and arthritis. Methods: Mendelian randomization (MR) studies with alcohol, smoking, and coffee consumption behaviors as exposures, and osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) as outcomes were retrieved from up to July 2023. Two researchers with relevant professional backgrounds independently assessed the quality and extracted data from the included studies. Meanwhile, we applied MR analyses of four lifestyle exposures and five arthritis outcomes (two for OA and three for RA) with gene-wide association study (GWAS) data that were different from the included studies, and the results were also included in the meta-analysis. Statistical analyses were performed using Stata 16.0 and R software version 4.3.1. Results: A total of 84 studies were assessed. Of these, 11 were selected for meta-analysis. As a whole, the included studies were considered to be at a low risk of bias and were of high quality. Results of the meta-analysis showed no significant genetic causality between alcohol intake and arthritis (odds ratio (OR): 1.02 (0.94-1.11)). Smoking and arthritis had a positive genetic causal association (OR: 1.44 (1.27-1.64)) with both OA (1.44 (1.22-1.71)) and RA (1.37 (1.26-1.50)). Coffee consumption and arthritis also had a positive genetic causal association (OR: 1.02 (1.01-1.03)). Results from the subgroup analysis showed a positive genetic causality between coffee consumption and both OA (OR: 1.02 (1.00-1.03)) and RA (OR: 1.56 (1.19-2.05)). Conclusion: There is positive genetic causality between smoking and coffee consumption and arthritis (OA and RA), while there is insufficient evidence for genetic causality between alcohol intake and arthritis.

Objective: The immune response assumes a pivotal role in the underlying mechanisms of urticaria pathogenesis. The present study delves into an investigation of the genetic causal connections between urticaria and prevalent autoimmune afflictions, notably rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), ulcerative colitis (UC), and Crohn's disease (CD). Methods: A bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was conducted to investigate the causal relationships involving four autoimmune diseases and urticaria. The genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary data of four autoimmune disease were sourced from the IEU OpenGWAS database. The GWAS summary data for urticaria were derived from the Finnish consortium dataset. The principal analytical approach employed in this study was the random-effects inverse variance weighted (IVW) method. Subsequently, a series of sensitivity analyses were performed, encompassing assessments of heterogeneity, horizontal pleiotropy, outliers, "Leave-one-out" analyses, and tests for adherence to the assumption of normal distribution. Results: The random-effects IVW analysis indicate a positive genetic causal association between RA and urticaria (P < 0.001, OR 95% CI = 1.091 [1.051-1.133]). Conversely, SLE, UC, and CD do not exhibit a significant genetic causal relationship with urticaria. The reverse MR analysis reveals a positive genetic causal linkage between urticaria and SLE (P = 0.026, OR 95% CI = 1.289 [1.031-1.612]). However, the analysis demonstrates no substantial genetic causal relationship between urticaria and RA, UC, or CD. Importantly, the genetic causal assessment absence of heterogeneity, horizontal pleiotropy, and outliers. Furthermore, it remains unaffected by any individual single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), demonstrating adherence to a normal distribution. Conclusion: This investigation establishing RA as a predisposing factor for urticaria. Moreover, urticaria as a plausible risk determinant for SLE. Heightened vigilance is recommended among RA patients to monitor the manifestation of urticaria within clinical settings. Similarly, individuals afflicted by urticaria should duly acknowledge the prospective susceptibility to SLE.

This study assessed the application of metagenomic next-generation sequencing in pathogen detection of periprosthetic joint infections. A total of 95 cases who previously had undergone hip and knee replacement undergoing revision from January 2018 to January 2021 were included in this study. Specimens of synovial fluid and deep-tissue were collected for culture and metagenomic next-generation sequencing, and patients were retrospectively categorized as infected or aseptic using the Musculoskeletal Infection Society criteria after revision surgery. The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values were compared. A total of 36 cases had positive culture results and 59 cases had positive metagenomic next-generation sequencing results. Culture was positive in 34 infected cases (58.6%) and 2 aseptic cases (5.4%). Metagenomic next-generation sequencing was positive in 55 infected cases (94.8%) and 4 aseptic cases (10.8%). Five cases diagnosed with infection had other potential pathogens detected by metagenomic next-generation sequencing. Among the 24 culture-negative periprosthetic joint infections, metagenomic next-generation sequencing was able to identify potential pathogens in 21 cases (87.5%). From sampling to reporting, the average time needed for culture was 5.2 (95% CI 3.1-7.3) days, while that for metagenomic next-generation sequencing was 1.3 (95% CI 0.9-1.7) days. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing is more advantageous in pathogen detection of periprosthetic joint infection after total joint replacement, especially in patients with multiple infections or negative culture results.

BACKGROUND: Patients with proximal femoral fracture (PFF) have high mortality and many complications. Osteoporosis increases the risk of subsequent fractures, leading to subsequent contralateral PFF. This study was performed to analyze the features of individuals with subsequent PFF following surgical therapy of first PFF and to ascertain whether such patients received an examination or treatment of osteoporosis. The reasons for lack of examination or treatment were also analyzed. METHODS: This retrospective study involved 181 patients with subsequent contralateral PFF who underwent surgical treatment in Xi'an Honghui hospital from September 2012 to October 2021. The patients' sex, age, hospital day, mechanism of injury, surgical procedure, fracture interval, fracture type, fracture classification, and Singh index of the contralateral hip at the time of the initial and subsequent fractures were recorded. Whether the patients took calcium and vitamin D supplements, used anti-osteoporosis medication, or underwent a dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan was recorded, as was the start time of each. Patients who had never undergone a DXA scan or received anti-osteoporosis medication took part in a questionnaire. RESULTS: The 181 patients in this study comprised 60 (33.1%) men and 121 (66.9%) women. Patients with initial PFF and subsequent contralateral PFF had a median age of 80 years (range 49-96 years) and 82 years (range 52-96 years), respectively. The median fracture interval was 24 (7-36) months. Contralateral fractures occurred at the highest incidence between 3 months and 1 year (28.7%). The Singh index was not significantly different between the two fractures. In 130 (71.8%) patients, the fracture type was the same. No significant difference was found in the fracture type or fracture stability classification. A total of 144 (79.6%) patients had never received a DXA scan or anti-osteoporosis medication. The main reason for not treating osteoporosis further was concern about the safety of drug interactions (67.4%). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with subsequent contralateral PFF were of advanced age, had a higher proportion of intertrochanteric femoral fractures, had more severe osteoporosis, and had longer hospital stays. The difficulty managing such patients requires multidisciplinary involvement. Most of these patients were not screened or formally treated for osteoporosis. Advanced-age patients with osteoporosis need reasonable treatment and management.

Abstract Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most frequent chronic diseases with high morbidity worldwide, marked by degradation of the cartilage and bone, joint instability, stiffness, joint space stenosis and subchondral sclerosis. Due to the elusive mechanism of osteoarthritis (OA), we aimed to identify potential markers for OA and explore the molecular mechanisms underlying OA. Methods Expression profiles data of OA were collected from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to identify differentially expressed mRNAs (DEmRNAs) and differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) in OA. Functional annotation and protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks were performed. Then, nearby DEmRNAs of DElncRNAs was obtained. Moreover, GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis of nearby DEmRNAs of DElncRNAs was performed. Finally, expression validation of selected mRNAs and lncRNAs was performed by quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. Results In total, 2080 DEmRNAs and 664 DElncRNAs were determined in OA. PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, Endocytosis and Rap1 signaling pathway were significantly enriched KEGG pathways in OA. YWHAB, HSPA8, NEDD4L and SH3KBP1 were four hub proteins in PPI network. The AC093484.4/TRPV2 interact pair may be involved in the occurrence and development of OA. Conclusion Our study identified several DEmRNAs and DElncRNAs associated with OA. The molecular characters could provide more information for further study on OA.
RESUMO
Objective: To investigate the optimal mixing ratio of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2 (rhBMP-2) with porous calcium phosphate cement (PCPC) and autologous bone as bone grafting material for the repair of large bone defects using Masquelet technique. The effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the healing of bone defects was evaluated under the optimal ratio of mixed bone. Methods: Fifty-four New Zealand White rabbits were taken to establish a 2 cm long bone defect model of the ulna and treated using the Masquelet technique. Two parts of the experiment were performed in the second phase of the Masquelet technique. First, 36 modeled experimental animals were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n=9) according to the mass ratio of autologous bone and rhBMP-2/PCPC. Group A: autologous bone (100%); group B: 25% autologous bone+75% rhBMP-2/PCPC; group C: 50% autologous bone+50% rhBMP-2/PCPC; group D: 75% autologous bone+25% rhBMP-2/PCPC. The animals were executed at 4, 8, and 12 weeks postoperatively for general observation, imaging observation, histological observation (HE staining), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay, and biomechanical assay (three-point bending test) were performed to assess the osteogenic ability and to determine the optimal mixing ratio. Then, 18 modeled experimental animals were randomly divided into 2 groups ( n=9). The control group was implanted with the optimal mixture ratio of autologous bone+rhBMP-2/PCPC, and the experimental group was implanted with the optimal mixture ratio of autologous bone+rhBMP-2/PCPC+autologous PRP. The same method was used to observe the above indexes at 4, 8, and 12 weeks postoperatively. Results: The bone healing process from callus formation to the cortical connection at the defected gap could be observed in each group after operation; new bone formation, bridging with the host bone, and bone remodeling to normal bone density were observed on imaging observation; new woven bone, new capillaries, bone marrow cavity, and other structures were observed on histological observation. The ALP activity of each group gradually increased with time ( P<0.05); the ALP activity of group A was significantly higher than that of the other 3 groups at each time point after operation, and of groups C and D than group B ( P<0.05); there was no significant difference between groups C and D ( P>0.05). Biomechanical assay showed that the maximum load in three-point bending test of each group increased gradually with time ( P<0.05), and the maximum loads of groups A and D were significantly higher than that of groups B and C at each time point after operation ( P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between groups A and D ( P>0.05). According to the above tests, the optimal mixing ratio was 75% autogenous bone+25% rhBMP-2/PCPC. The process of new bone formation in the experimental group and the control group was observed by gross observation, imaging examination, and histological observation, and the ability of bone formation in the experimental group was better than that in the control group. The ALP activity and maximum load increased gradually with time in both groups ( P<0.05); the ALP activity and maximum load in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group at each time point after operation ( P<0.05), and the maximum load in the experimental group was also significantly higher than that in group A at 12 weeks after operation ( P<0.05). Conclusion: In the second phase of Masquelet technique, rhBMP-2/PCPC mixed with autologous bone to fill the bone defect can treat large bone defect of rabbit ulna, and it has the best osteogenic ability when the mixing ratio is 75% autologous bone+25% rhBMP-2/PCPC. The combination of PRP can improve the osteogenic ability of rhBMP-2/PCPC and autologous bone mixture.

Background: The morbidity and mortality of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is significantly higher than those in the general population, leading to RA-related CVD has attracted broad attention and numerous articles have been published. However, no study has systematically examined this area from a scientometric perspective. This study aimed to visualize the knowledge structure and identify emerging research trends and potential hotspots in this field. Materials and methods: Articles and reviews on RA-CVD published from 2001 to 2021 were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection database. CiteSpace and VOSviewer software were used to visualize the knowledge network of countries, institutions, authors, references and keywords in this field. SPSS and Microsoft Excel software were used for curve fitting and correlation analysis. Results: A total of 2,618 articles and reviews were included. The number of publications about RA-related CVD significantly increased yearly. Publications were mainly concentrated in North America, Europe and East Asia. The United States contributed most with 699 publications, followed by the United Kingdom and Italy. Gross Domestic Product was an important factor affecting scientific output. University of Manchester and Professor Kitas George D. were the most prolific institutions and influential authors, respectively. Journal of Rheumatology was the most productive journal for RA-related CVD research. The research hotspots switched in the order of clinical features (cardiovascular events), mechanism exploration, anti-tumor necrosis factor therapy, risk factors, and antirheumatic drug safety, which can be observed from the keyword analysis and co-cited reference cluster analysis. Conclusions: This study found that research on RA-related CVD is flourishing. The safety and cardiovascular pharmacological mechanisms of anti-rheumatoid drugs, especially targeted synthetic DMARDs, would be the focus of current research and developmental trends in future research.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlation between preoperative DVT and the time from injury to surgery (TFITS), and provide a clinical reference for the prevention of preoperative DVT. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We collected the clinical data of patients with lower extremities fractures between September 1, 2014, and May 31, 2019. Doppler ultrasonography was used to diagnose DVT. Patients were divided into the 0-2d group, 3-4d group, 5-7d group, and >7d group according to TFITS. The correlation between TFITS and preoperative DVT was assessed using logistic regression according to the adjusted model. RESULT: A total of 2831 patients were included in the study. The meanï¼+/-SDï¼ TFITS was 6.11 ± 3.76 (0 to 21 d). A total of 821 (29.0%) cases had preoperative DVT, with the incidence of DVT being 8.0% in the 0-2d group, 23.8% in the 3-4d group, 32.0% in the 5-7d group, and 36.2% in the >7d group, with statistically significant differences(Pï¼0.05) among all the groups. The incidence of preoperative DVT increased with prolonged preoperative time. In the fully adjusted model, TFITS was positively correlated with the incidence of preoperative DVT (OR: 1.093; 95% CI: 1.068-1.118; P = 0.000), and the strength of the association increased with increasing time. CONCLUSION: TFITS was an independent risk factor on the incidence of preoperative DVT. After excluding the effect of other factors, each 1d increases in TFITS was correlated with a 9.3% increase in the risk of preoperative DVT. The TFITS should be decreased to reduce the risk of preoperative DVT.

OBJECTIVES: The lung injury is often secondary to severe trauma. In the model of crush syndrome, there may be secondary lung injury. We hypothesize that high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), released from muscle tissue, mediates the apoptosis of alveolar epithelial cells (AEC) via HMGB1/Receptor of advanced glycation end-products (RAGE)/c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway. The study aimed to investigate how HMGB1 mediated the apoptosis of AEC in the rat model. METHODS: Seventy-five SD male rats were randomly divided into five groups: CS, CS + vehicle, CS + Ethyl pyruvate (EP), CS + FPS-ZM1 group, and CS + SP600125 groups. When the rats CS model were completed after 24 h, the rats were sacrificed. We collected the serum and the whole lung tissues. Inflammatory cytokines were measured in serum samples. Western blot and RT-qPCR were used to quantify the protein and mRNA. Lastly, apoptotic cells were detected by TUNEL. We used SPSS 25.0 for statistical analyses. RESULTS: Nine rats died during the experiments. Dead rats were excluded from further analysis. Compared to the CS group, levels of HMGB1 and inflammatory cytokines in serum were downregulated in CS + EP, CS + FPS-ZM1, and CS + SP600125 groups. Western blot and RT-qPCR analysis revealed a significant downregulation of HMGB1, RAGE, and phosphorylated-JNK in CS + EP, CS + FPS-ZM1, and CS + SP600125 groups, compared with the CS groups, excluding total-JNK mRNA. Apoptosis of AEC was used TUNEL to assess. We found the TUNEL-positive cells were downregulated in CS + EP, CS + FPS-ZM1, and CS + SP600125 groups. CONCLUSION: The remote lung injury begins early after crush injuries. The HMGB1/RAGE/JNK signaling axis is an attractive target to abrogate the apoptosis of AEC after crush injuries.

We investigated the difference between fixation of single and double sacroiliac screws in the treatment of Tile C1 pelvic fractures. The data of 54 patients with Tile C1 pelvic fractures who were admitted to the trauma center of the Red Society Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University between August 2016 and August 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients with posterior pelvic ring injuries underwent fixation with sacroiliac screws assisted by a percutaneous robotic navigation system. The operative time, amount of intraoperative blood loss, and postoperative follow-up time between the two groups (single sacroiliac and double sacroiliac screw groups) were compared. The Matta and Majeed scores at the last follow-up were compared between the groups to evaluate fracture reduction and functional recovery. Forty-nine patients were followed up for 17.2 (±4.5) months and 16.2 (±3.4) months in the single and double sacroiliac screw groups, respectively. All patients had excellent fracture reduction immediately after surgery, according to the Matta score. All fractures healed without complications. There was no statistically significant difference in preoperative general information, amount intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative anterior ring fixation method, and postoperative follow-up time between the two groups (P > 0.05). The operative time of the single sacroiliac screw group was shorter than that of the double sacroiliac screw group (P < 0.05). At the last follow-up, the Matta score of the double sacroiliac screw group was significantly better than that of the single sacroiliac screw group (P < 0.05), and there was no statistically significant difference in the Majeed functional scores (P > 0.05). For Tile C1 pelvic fractures, double sacroiliac screw fixation of posterior ring injuries can provide a more stable treatment with no statistically significant difference in functional recovery.

WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE: Up to now, no study focused on the role of SdrG in PJI after THA. To explore the mechanism of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS: Joint fluid and blood were collected from patients with PJI after THA, aseptic loosening of the joints or bacterial infection after traumatic fractures of the extremities alone. The expression of SdrG in the 3 groups was determined by agarose gel electrophoresis. The expression of protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor J (PTPRJ) was measured by immunohistochemistry method. The platelet adhesion rate was determined by biochemical analysis. The content of D-dimer, CRP and ESR in blood was determined by latex agglutination method. Multiple linear correlation analysis was used to analyse the correlation between PJI and the expression of PTPRJ protein, platelet adhesion rate, D-dimer content, CRP and ESR. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: The expression of SdrG and PTPRJ in PJI group was markedly increased compared to the other 2 groups. The platelet adhesion rate in PJI group was markedly larger compared to aseptic loosening and simple wound infection group, and the rate in simple wound infection group was larger than aseptic loosening group. The level of D-dimer, CRP and ESR in PJI group was higher than that of the other groups. The expression of PTPRJ protein, D-dimer content, CRP and ESR was all closely related to PJI, while platelet adhesion rate had no correlation with PJI. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION: SDRG gene around joint prosthesis was over-expressed, which activated joint surface membrane protein PTPRJ and then induced platelet aggregation to reduce joint function.

Purpose: Older patient population with acetabular fractures is increasing rapidly, requiring enhanced recovery. Acute total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a good option for these patients, and it is becoming increasing popular. However, acute THA has different indications in different studies. Therefore, a systematic review is needed to assess and comprehend the indications for acute THA in older patients. Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted to identify a retrospective series or prospective studies in older patients (>60 years) with acetabular fractures. The search timeline was from database construction till December 2021; PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched. Two trained professional reviewers independently read the full text of documents that met the inclusion criteria and extracted information on the specific methods used and indication information based on the research design. Results: In total, there were 601 patients with acetabular fractures aged >60 years from 33 studies were obtained. Twenty-eight studies reported that THA was a feasible treatment option for acetabular fractures in geriatric patients with good outcome. The primary indications were dome impaction, irreducible articular comminution, femoral head injury, and pre-existing osteoarthritis or avascular necrosis. The most common patterns were anterior column and posterior hemitransverse, posterior wall, both columns, and T-type. Conclusion: Acute THA is an effective treatment strategy for older patients with acetabular fractures and should be considered when the abovementioned indications are observed on preoperative images. (PROSPERO: CRD42022329555).
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: Adding vitamin E to highly cross-linked polyethylene liners is frequently performed in clinical practice, aiming at reducing liner wear, increasing liner survival, and delaying revision surgery. This study is aimed at evaluating the revision rate, total femoral head penetration, and postoperative clinical function of highly cross-linked polyethylene liners with and without vitamin E in total hip arthroplasty. METHODS: We conducted a systematic literature search to identify the use of highly cross-linked vitamin E liners compared to other liners in patients who received total hip arthroplasty (THA) before April 2021. The study quality assessment and data collection were conducted by two independent reviewers. Studies were artificially grouped, and vitamin E-enhanced liners (VE-PE) were compared with vitamin E-free liners (non-VE-PE). Analyses were executed using Review Manager version 5.4.1. RESULTS: From the preliminary screening of 568 studies, fourteen studies met the research criteria. Compared to non-VE-PE, using VE-PE reduced the all-cause revision rate (odds ratio = 0.54; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.40, 0.73; P < 0.0001). The total femoral head penetration of the VE-PE was lower than that of the non-VE-PE (mean difference = -0.10; 95% CI -0.17, -0.03; P = 0.007). However, there was no difference in clinical function, including the Harris Hip Score and EuroQol Five-Dimension Questionnaire scores. CONCLUSION: Compared to the liners without vitamin E, the addition of vitamin E to liners could reduce the all-cause revision rate by approximately 46% in the short-term follow-up. In addition, even though addition of vitamin E could also slow down femoral head penetration, there is no contribution to clinical function.

PURPOSE: This finite element analysis assessed lateral compression (LC-1) fracture stability using machine learning for morphological mapping and classification of pelvic ring stability. METHODS: Computed tomography (CT) files of LC-1 pelvic fractures were collected. After morphological mapping and producing matrix data, we used K-means clustering in unsupervised machine learning to classify the fractures. Based on these subtypes, we manually added fracture lines in ANSYS software. Finally, we performed a finite element analysis of a normal pelvis and eight fracture subtypes based on von Mises stress and total deformation changes. RESULTS: A total of 218 consecutive cases were analyzed. According to the three main factors-zone of sacral injury and completion, pubic ramus injury side, and the sagittal rotation of the injured hemipelvis-the LC-1 injuries were classified into eight subtypes (I-VIII). No significant differences in stress or deformation were observed between unilateral and bilateral public ramus fractures. Subtypes VI and VIII showed the maximum stress while subtypes V-VIII showed the maximum deformation in the total pelvis and sacrum. The subtypes did not differ in superior public ramus deformation. CONCLUSIONS: Complete fracture of sacrum zones 2/3 may be a feature of unstable LC-1 fractures. Surgeons should give surgical strategies for subtypes V-VIII.
