Objective:To evaluate open reduction and internal fixation via the anterior approaches in the treatment of geriatric acetabular fractures.Methods:Retrospectively analyzed were the clinical data of 74 consecutive patients with acetabular fracture who had been treated by open reduction and internal fixation via the anterior approaches from June 2018 to December 2020. The patients were divided into 2 groups. In the geriatric group (≥65 years old): 16 patients [8 males and 8 females with an age of (74.0±5.9) years]; 7 both column fractures, 4 anterior column fractures, and 5 anterior column plus posterior hemi-transverse fractures according to the Letournel-Judet classification; time from injury to operation: (6.1±3.4) d. In the young group (<65 years old): 58 patients [48 males and 10 females with an age of (46.7±10.9) years]; 28 both column fractures, 14 anterior column fractures, 8 anterior column plus posterior hemi-transverse fractures, 5 T type fractures and 3 transverse fractures; time from injury to operation: (5.4±2.7) d. The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative reduction, operative complications, and functional results.Results:The 2 groups were comparable because there was no significant difference in the preoperative general data like fracture Letournel-Judet classification or dome impaction between them ( P>0.05). The intraoperative blood loss in the geriatric group was (715.6±285.0) mL, significantly less than that in the young group [(1,008.6±463.9) mL]( P<0.05). In the geriatric and young groups, respectively, the operation time was (167.2±44.3) min and (172.9±56.6) min, 3 and 6 cases had main operative complications, the good to excellent rate of postoperative reduction was 87.5% (14/16) and 84.5% (49/58), and the follow-up time was (26.6±10.7) months and (23.6±10.1) months, all showing no significant difference ( P>0.05). According to the improved Merle d'Aubigné & Postel scoring system, the hip function at the last follow-up was evaluated as excellent in 5 cases, as good in 10 cases, and as fair in 1 case in the geriatric group while as excellent in 21 cases, as good in 33 cases, and as fair in 2 cases (the other 2 cases were lost) in the young group, showing no statistically significant difference between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Open reduction and internal fixation via the anterior approaches is as safe and effective for the geriatric patients with acetabular fracture as for the young and middle-aged ones.

Objective:To evaluate the emergency iliosacral screw fixation assisted by TiRobot for unstable posterior pelvic ring fracture.Methods:The 26 patients with unstable pelvic fracture were analyzed retrospectively who had undergone emergency iliosacral screw fixation at Department of Orthopedics & Traumatology, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from June 2018 to December 2020. They were divided into 2 groups depending on whether orthopaedic TiRobot was used to assist screw insertion. In the observation group of 14 cases subjected to TiRobot-assisted insertion of iliosacral screws, there were 10 males and 4 females with an age of (45.9 ± 10.1) years; in the control group of 12 cases subjected to conventional manual insertion of iliosacral screws, there were 9 males and 3 females with an age of (49.2 ± 11.3) years. All the surgeries were conducted within 24 hours after injury. The 2 groups were compared in terms of screw insertion time, pin insertion, intraoperative blood loss, fluoroscopy time, postoperative screw position, fracture reduction and Harris hip score at the final follow-up.Results:The 2 groups were comparable because there was no significant difference between them in their preoperative general clinical data or follow-up time ( P>0.05). The screw insertion time [(16.1 ± 3.4) min] and fluoroscopy time [(8.1 ± 3.3) s] in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group [(26.4 ± 5.4) min and (25.2 ± 7.4) s], and the pin insertions [1 (1, 2) times] and intraoperative blood loss [(10.5 ± 6.4) mL] in the former were significantly less than those in the latter [6 (3, 8) times and (24.8 ± 6.7) mL] (all P<0.05). Postoperatively, the sacroiliac screw position was excellent in 18 cases and good in 2 in the observation group while excellent in 14 cases, good in 2 and poor in 2 in the control group; the fracture reduction was excellent in 12 cases, good in one and fair in one in the observation group while excellent in 10 cases, good in one and fair in one in the control group, showing insignificant differences in the above comparisons ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference either in the Harris hip score at the final follow-up between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with conventional manual insertion of iliosacral screws, emergency iliosacral screw fixation assisted by TiRobot can effectively decrease surgical time and reduce operative invasion due to a higher accuracy rate of screw insertion.

Objective:To compare the perioperative data between the pararectus and ilioinguinal approaches in the internal fixation of acetabular fractures.Methods:A randomized controlled trial was conducted to enroll 74 patients with acetabular fracture who were admitted to Department of Orthopaedic Trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from June 2018 to January 2021. They were randomly divided into 2 groups. In group A of 37 cases, there were 28 males and 9 females with an age of (55.8±15.2) years, and 10 anterior column fractures, 7 anterior+posterior hemi-transverse fractures, one transverse fracture, 3 T-shaped fractures and 16 both column fractures according to Letournel-Judet classification. In group B of 37 cases, there were 28 males and 9 females with an age of (49.4±14.6) years, and 8 anterior column fractures, 6 anterior+ posterior hemi-transverse fractures, 2 transverse fractures, 2 T-shaped fractures and 19 both column fractures according to Letournel-Judet classification. Group A was subjected to open reduction and plate fixation via the pararectus approach while group B to open reduction and plate fixation via the ilioinguinal approach. The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative reduction and perioperative complications.Results:There were no significant differences in baseline data between the 2 groups, showing comparability between them ( P>0.05). The operation time in group A [150 (120, 180) min] was significantly shorter than that in group B [180 (150, 225) min] ( P<0.05). There were no significance differences between the 2 groups in intraoperative blood loss [800 (600, 1, 000) mL versus 1, 000(600, 1, 300) mL], rate of good to excellent reduction [91.9%(34/37) versus 78.4%(29/37)], or incidence of complications [24.3%(9/37) versus 45.9%(17/37)] ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with the ilioinguinal approach, the pararectus approach can reduce operation time significantly in the internal fixation of acetabular fractures.

OBJECTIVE： To optimize the preparation technology of Oridonin A oral liposomes （ORI-LIP） by using supercritical fluidsolution-enhanced dispersion （SEDS） technology， and to investigate its advantage with routine liposome preparation technologies. METHODS： Using particle size as evaluation index， orthogonal design was employed to investigate the influence of pressure， temperature and flow rate on the preparation technology of ORI-LIP by SEDS. At the same time， thin film dispersion and reverse evaporation method were used to prepare ORI liposomes. The particle size， encapsulation efficiency， drug loading amount and stability （accelerated test for 6 months） were compared among 3 methods. Moreover， the difference in dissolution behavior in vitro of ORI crude drug and 3 kinds of liposomes was evaluated. RESULTS： The optimized preparation condition of ORI liposomes by SEDS included temperature of 50 ℃， pressure of 18 MPa， flow rate of 1 mL/min. Compared with thin film dispersion and reverse evaporation method， the liposomes prepared by the SEDS method exhibited smaller particle size [（147.4±4.8）nm]， better encapsulation efficiency （67.8％）， drug-loading amount （7.8％） and stability （particle size increased slightly， encapsulation efficiency decreased only by 4.4％）. Results of in vitro dissolution test showed that compared with crude drug， release rate of each liposome was slow and persistent， and the cumulative release rate was higher. The accumulative release rate of ORI-LIP prepared by SEDS could achieve to 67.2％， and reached to dissolution equilibrium at 24 h. CONCLUSIONS： ORI-LIP prepared by SEDS has smaller particle size， higher encapsulation efficiency， drug loading amount and stability， which can improve the in vitro release of ORI. Compared with conventional methods， SEDS technology has certain advantages.

Objective To evaluate the ergotropic effect of bone cement on pedicle screw fixation in treatment of osteopo-rotic thoracolumbar fracture.Methods Fifty-three patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar fracture, admitted from Jun. 2013 to Dec. 2014, were included for treatment by augmentation of pedicle screw fixation with bone cement. All patients underwent pre-operative examination of bone mineral density with T-score ≤-2.5 and augmentation of pedicle screw fixation with injection of 1.5 ml bone cement in adjacent to fractured vertebra. All patients were treated with anti-osteoporosis therapy pre- and post-operation, ob-served and recorded with basic conditions and complications. At pre-operation, one-week post-operation and last follow-up, pain vi-sual analogue scale (VAS) and neurological function score (ASIA) of all patients were recorded, and the compression rats of anterior and posterior edge of fractured vertebra, and compression rats of spinal canal and Cobb angel of all patients were measured.Results All the 53 patients were successfully undergone operation in about 90-140 min with blood loss of about 150-350 ml. No spinal cord or nerve injury, dural tear and obvious leakage of bone cement and screw loosening occurred during operation. All patients were followed up for 12 to 36 months and the neurological function obviously recovered contrasted with pre-operation. X-ray and CT examination at last follow-up showed good fractures healing, good position and non-loosening of internal fixation device and non-leakage of bone cement. At one week post-operation and last follow-up, VAS, compression rats of anterior edge and posterior edge of fractured vertebra, compression rats of spinal canal and Cobb angel were significantly lower than those at pre-operation (P0.05).Conclusions Augmentation of pedicle screw fixation with bone cement can effectively strengthen the initial stability of pedicle screw in osteo-porosis, restore the height of fractured vertebra and reduce the compression of spinal canal, which will help the correction of spinal kyphosis and neurological function recovery. This method can well maintain long-term stability of internal fixation in osteoporosis and height of fractured vertebra, and significantly reduce the risks of long-term screw loosening and vertebral collapse.

Objective To analyze the total cost and clinical effectiveness of internal fixation and hemiar-throplasty in the treatment of femoral neck fracture for the elderly. Methods From October 2013 to May 2015,85 patients above 60-year old who were diagnosed as displaced femoral neck fracture and received operation in our hospital. All the patients were divided into internal fixation(IF)group and hemiarthroplasty(HA)group respec-tively. There were 40 cases in the IF group and 45 cases in the HA group. The total cost associated with fracture in a year was collected by medical record ,telephone interview and standard methods. At the last follow-up ,we ap-plied Harris scores to evaluate the clinical outcome for each group. Results All the patients completed the operation successfully. During 1 year follow-up the total cost in the IF group was less than that in the HA group including higher primary hospitalization cost and less post-discharge cost. The total cost was 44,556.1 Yuan in the IF group and 72,198.0 Yuan in the HA group respectively. The data showed that the total cost of HA was 1.6 times higher than that of IF. At the last follow-up the mean Harris scores was 71.1 ± 12.1 in the IF group and 74.3 ± 10.3 in the HA group while the EQ-5D index was 0.74 ± 0.15 and 0.76 ± 0.13 respectively which showed no significant differ-ence(P > 0.05). Conclusions Both internal fixation and hemiarthroplasty have effective treatment for elderly pa-tients with femoral neck fracture. Compared to hemiarthroplasty IF can provide similar clinical effectiveness with less total cost. Therefore IF may contribute to decrease the economic burden for elderly patients in China.

Objective To elaborate the glucose and lipid metabolism 1 year postpartum on the foundation of postpartum 6-12 weeks in patients with prior gestational abnormal glucose metabolism in Beijing area.Methods Seventy-three patients who delivered during February to December,2007,aged (32.0 ± 3.6) years,were enrolled.46 cases (63％) were diagnosed as cases of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) while 27 (37％) as gestational impaired glucose tolerance (GIGT).All of the patients were revisited twice by 6-12 weeks and 1 year postparaum.Body weight,waist andhip circumferences,oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT),and lipids profile were determined.Results Compared with 6-12 weeks postpartum,the body weight,waist and hip circumferences,and waist-to-hip ratio were decreased by 1 year postpartum,fasting plasma glucose was increased [(5.19 ± 0.06) vs (4.84 ± 0.57) mmol/L,P＜0.01],and 4 cases were diagnosed as cases with impaired fasting glucose (IFG; 4 vs 0).By 6-12 weeks and 1 year postpartum,postprandial plasma glucose levels were (6.84± 1.93) and (7.33 ± 1.50) mmol/L(P=0.017),and the incidences of impaired glucose tolerance(IGT) were 28.8％ and 38.4％ (P=0.167),respectively,with 6 cases of newly diagnosed IGT by 1 year postpartum.There were more cases of hypertriglyceridenia (19.2％ vs 13.7％),less cases of hypercholesterolemia(19.7％ vs 30.0％,P＜0.01),more cases with improved high-densit.y lipoprotein-cholesterol (21.9％ vs 4.1％,P＜0.01),and less cases with raised low-density lipoproteincholesterol(21.9％ vs 49.3％,P＜0.01).No difference was found in body weight,body mass index,waist circumference,hip circumference,and waist-to-hip ratio between GIGT and GDM groups.Conclusion GDM is an important cause of the increasing prevalence of diabetes in women of reproductive age.Although body weight and waist-to-hip ratio have been improved,they would still develop glucose intolerance and dyslipidemia 1 year postpartum.

To summarize the clinical data of two cases with severe hyponatremia diagnosed as adrenal insuffiency combined with syndrome of inappropriate secret on of antidiuretic hormone(SIADH),and to review related literatures.Case 1 diagnosed as Addison's disease for 27 years and developed severe hyponatremia again but did not response well to sufficient glucocorticoid.Further examination showed SIADH caused by lung cancer and tolvaptan worked well.Case 2 was diagnosed as SIADH caused by lung cancer and responsed well to tolvaptan.However,hyponatremia reoccurred with the decreasing level of ACTH and cortisol during the chemotherapy.It was thought that hyponatremia was caused by drug-related adrenal insuffiency and glucocorticoid replacement therapy achieved good response.Both primary/secondary adrenal insuffiency and SIADH can lead to severe hyponatremia,but it is rare that the two situations exist in one patient and occur in different time.We should consider the possibility of the situations when we make differential diagnosis of refractory hyponatremia,monitoring the curative effects carefully,then correct the diagnosis timely,and reduce missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of femoral head replacement for the treatment of intertrochanteric frac -tures among elderly patients .Method There were 38 cases that received intertrochanteric fracture hemiarthroplasty and 35 patients were treated with open reduction and dynamic hip screw ( DHS) plate internal fixation .After follow-up, their opera-tion duration,blood loss, postoperative drainage flow , postoperative ambulation time , hospitalization time were compared according to the Harris score to assess the effect of postoperative follow-up.Results After the mean follow-up time of 18 months (12 to 36 months),the hemiarthroplasty group was superior to the open reduction and DHS plate fixation group ,as shown by the earlier postoperative ambulation time , fewer complications , and better fracture reduction , with an excellent rate of 94 .7%.Conclusion For patients with intertrochanteric fractures , hemiarthroplasty surgery is effective and can re-duce the incidence of postoperative complications .
