ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To compare the biomechanical stability of different fixation methods for anterior ring injury of unstable pelvic fractures, and to provide reference for clinical treatment.@*METHODS@#An unstable pelvic fracture model (Tile C) with one side of the sacroiliac joint dislocation and the pubic rami fracture was constructed via three-dimensional finite element analysis. Five different fixation methods were used in the front, and the rear was fixed with sacroiliac screws. The von Mises stress and strain distributions of different combinations of fixation methods were analyzed under mimicking standing conditions.@*RESULTS@#After being loaded with 500 N vertically, the maximum stress in the anterior fracture was 3.56 MPa in anterior pelvic external fixation (AEF) group, the total displacement and the vertical displacement of the Y axis at the sacroiliac joint and the fracture were not more than 1.5 mm. The maximum stress at fixation, the front of the fracture and sacroiliac joints in the anterior pelvic subcutaneous approach(APA) group and AEF, was significantly higher than anterior modified Stoppa approach(ASA) group, anterior pelvic Ilioinguinal approach (AIA) group, and canulated screw fixation(CSF) group. The total displacement and the vertical displacement of the Y axis at the sacroiliac joint and the fracture in APA group and AEF group were also greater than the other three groups.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Anterior ring injury of unstable pelvic fractures can be significantly improved after the fixation of the implants in the five combined methods. However, overall biomechanical properties of ASA, AIA and CSF group are superior to APA and AEF group.

ABSTRACT

This paper aims to find out the impacts of meteorological factors on malaria transmission by exploring the relationship between monthly local malaria cases and meteorological factors in Tengchong county,so as to develop malaria control strategy.Plasmodium vivax malaria incidence data and meteorological data including monthly mean temperature,maximum temperature,minimum temperature,rainfall,relative humidity,and minimum humidity in Tengchong County,Yunnan from 2005 to 2010 were provided by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and China Meteorological Administration.The correlation between malaria incidence and meteorological factors was analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis.The generalized additive model (GAM) was applied to investigate the relationship between monthly local malaria cases and meteorological factors.Results showed that there was a weak positive correlation between minimum temperature,mean relative humidity as well as minimum relative humidity and local malaria incidences.While a complex nonlinear relationship between the vectorial capacity,relative humidity and the incidence of malaria was detected.Malaria transmission increases when the vectorial capacity was greater than 10 (VCAP>10) or the average relative humidity was between 55% and 70%.The malaria transmission declines when relative humidity above 70%.The relationship between meteorological factors and the incidence of local malaria is well explained by GAM,and there is a complex nonlinear relationship between vectorial capacity,relative humidity and malaria incidence.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study clinical effects of a new internal fixation by using a cable through the bone and Kirschner with a hole in the tail, for the treatment of patellar fractures.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From May 2012 to July 2013, thirty-four patients with patellar fractures were treated with cable through the bone and Kirschner with a hole in the tail. All the patients had close fracture,including 12 transverse fractures and 22 comminuted fractures. There were 18 males and 16 females, ranging in age from 26 to 81 years old, with an average of (46.0 ± 3.0) years old. After open reduction, two appropriate length of Kirschner with a hole in the tail were driven into the patella as perpendicular to the fracture line or the major fragments as possible. A transverse bone tunnel was then drilled with a Kirschner at one side of the patella. Then the cable, which was successively pulled through the bone tunnel and the hole of Kirschner, was crossed in a figure-eight over the anterior of the patella, tightened and fixated by special instruments. The Kirschner was clipped off on the edge of the hole. If it was a comminuted fracture, another cable was used to fasten the patella with cerclage. Postoperative evaluation was based on Bostman.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 12 to 26 months, with a mean of (16.0 ± 2.0) months. Fractures healed in all the cases without such complications as infection, loosening of Kirschner and cable loop, and skin irritation. According to the Böstman score system, 33 cases got an excellent result, and 1 good.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The cable through the bone and Kirschner with a hole in the tail is a simple, stable and effective method for the treatment of patellar fractures, especially the transverse fractures, with earlier knee exercise and fewer complications.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To discuss the primary stability of the fixed interface between the cementless prosthesis and femur, and its influence on bone ingrowth and secondary stability under the roughened surface and press fit of different prostheses by finite element analysis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>:A three-dimensional finite element module of total hip arthroplasty (THA) was developed with Mimics software. There was a collection of data when simulating hip arthroplasty. The frictional coefficient between the fixed interface was 0,0.15,0.40 and 1.00 representing the roughness of prosthesis surface. The press fit was 0, 0.01,0.05 and 0.10 mm according to the operation. The Vion Mises stress distribution and the contact pressure,friction stress and relative sliding displacement between the interface were analysed and compared when simulating the maneuver of climbing stairs.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>At a fixed press fit of 0.05 mm,the contact pressure between the interface was 230 , 231, 222 and 275 MN under four different frictional coefficient (0,0. 15,0.40 and 1.00) with little change; the relative sliding displacement was 0.529, 0.129, 0.107 and 0.087 mm with a consistent and obvious decline. As the fixed frictional coefficient was 0.40,the contact pressure between the interface were 56.0,67.7 ,60.4 and 49.6 MN under four different press fit (0, 0.01, 0.05 and 0.10 mm) with a reduction; the relative sliding displacement was 0.064,0.062,0.043 and 0.042 mm with an obvious decline, and there was a maximal friction stress when press fit of 0.01 mm.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>There is a dynamic process of the bone remodeling and bone integration between the interface after hip replacement, determining the long-term outcome. The interface clearance and the frictional coefficient are the key factors of the bone integration.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of the attachment site of grafts and the tunnel angle on the function of knee joint after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From January 2006 to May 2009, 47 patients(32 males and 15 females, ranging in age from 19 to 51 years old, with an average of 35.3 years old) were treated with single-bundle reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament. Several indexes were measured at the latest follow-up as follow: attachment sites of graft on the femoral condyle were recorded, the femoral tunnel angles on coronal and sagittal planes were measured on postoperative X-ray films. According to the IKDC score, these patients were divided into two groups. In the first group, 38 patients were found the IKDC score more than 90 at the latest follow-up, and in the second group 9 patients were found IKDC score less than 90. By comparing the two groups, the relation of the indexes and postoperative function of knee was analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The IKDC which was more than 90 at the latest follow-up was found in 38 patients, whose femoral attachments site of ACL was positioned at (29.73 +/- 4.31)% (ranged from 16.21% to 53.82%) from the posterior end of Blumensaat's line. IKDC which was less than 90 was found in 9 patients, whose femoral attachments site of ACL was positioned at (46.61 +/- 3.43)% (ranged from 27.18% to 72.34%). There was significant difference between the two groups (P = -0.000 7). The IKDC more than 90 at the latest follow-up was found in 38 patients,whose femoral tunnel angle on coronal plane was (49.5 +/- 4.72) degrees (ranged from 33 degrees to 67 degrees) and on sagittal plane was (31.3 +/- 5.12) degrees (ranged from 11 degrees to 45 degrees) were significantly less than those whose IKDC less than 90 at the latest follow-up on coronal plane was (67.6 +/- 3.09) degrees (ranged from 41 degrees to 81 degrees) and on sagittal plane was (41.2 +/- 5.69) degrees (ranged from 23 degrees to 56 degrees) (P = 0.000 7, P = -0.000 8).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>There is close relation between the attachment site of grafts and the tunnel angle with the function of knee, so in anterior cruciate ligament should be anatomic reconstructed with the anterior medial approach.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the efficacy and clinical outcome of reduction and pedicle screws fixation at the fracture level with the approach through para-vertebral muscles in treating thoraeolumbar fractures.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From January 2007 to March 2010,27 patients with thoracolumbar fractures were treated with posterior open reduction and internal fixation with the approach through para-vertebral muscles. There were 19 males and 8 females with the mean age of 36.3 years old (ranged,21 to 57). According to Magerl type, type A2 was in 5 cases, A3 in 14, B1 in 3, B2 in 5. According to Frankel classification of spinal cord injury: grade D was in 6 cases and grade E in 21 cases. X-rays and CT scans were performed after operation. Cobb angle of the injured vertebral segment,the percentage of vertebral compression,and sagittal diameter stenosis rate of the injured spinal canal were observed by radiographic data. Neurological function was evaluated by the Frankel grade.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All patients were followed up from 12 to 28 months with an average of 19.6 months. The percentage of vertebral compression, Cobb angle of the injured vertebral segment, spinal canal sagittal diameter stenosis rate were respectively corrected from (46.6 +/- 10.5)%, (18.3 +/- 7.2) degrees, (30.2 +/- 7.2)% to postoperative (5.2 +/- 3.7)%, (5.3 +/- 5.1) degrees, (6.3 +/- 4.2)% and (6.7 +/- 4.6)%, (7.1 +/- 3.1), (7.2 +/- 4.5)% at last follow-up. There were significant difference in above items between preoperation and postoperation (P < 0.05); and there was no significant difference in above items between postoperation and last follow-up (P > 0.05). In aspect of nerve function, 3 cases with Frankel grade D recovered to grade E.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Using reduction and short-segment pedicle screws fixation at the fracture level through para-vertebral muscles approach is an effective method in treating thoracolumbar fractures. The method has advantages of simple operation,easy establishing screw, short operative time, less blood loss, which can obtain good reduction and stable, reliable fixation after operation.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the operation techniques and clinical effects of hollow lag screws for the treatment of Hoffa fractures.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From February 2001 to May 2009, 13 patients with Hoffa fractures were treated with hollow lag screws, including 8 males and 5 females, ranging in age from 23 to 45 years, with a mean age of 34.2 years. Six patients had the fractures on the left, 7 patients on the right. According to the Letenneuer type, femur lateral condyle: type I in 3 cases, type III in 2 cases; femur medial condyle: type I in 3 cases, type II in 2 cases, type III in 3 cases. According to the type of fracture, hollow lag screws were used to treat the fracture with different approach.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 12 to 23 months,with a mean of 16.5 months. All the patients had no complications such as popliteal artery, tibial nerve or peroneal nerve injuries. According to Letenneur knee function score: 10 patients got an excellent result, 3 good. At the half year after operation, the X-ray showed all the fractures had bone union. There were no hollow lag screw loosening, broken or nonunion.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The clinical effect of hollow lag screw for the treatment of Hoffa fractures is satisfactory. The surgical approach and fixation should be determined by the type of fracture, the location of the fracture line and the size of fracture fragments.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore selection and efficacy assessment for membranous urethral trauma caused by pelvic fracture.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From June 2000 to August 2010, 72 patients with membranous urethral trauma caused by pelvic fracture were selected. There were 46 males and 26 females,ranging age from 26 to 62 years (averaged 35.2 years). The time from injury to hospitalization time was 1 to 3 hours. According to Tile pelvic fracture classification, there were 8 patients with type A, 45 patients with type B, 19 patients with type C. Thirty of the 35 patients with partial rupture of posterior urethral were treated by catheterization,5 patients treated by rupture anastomosis on the stage I combined with cystostomy; 25 of the 37 patients with complete rupture of posterior urethra were treated by early realignment, and 12 patients were treated by cystostomy. Urinary incontinence, impotence and urethrostenosis were evaluated.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All patients were followed up for 5 to 10 years (mean 7.7 years). Incidence of urethrostenosis, impotence and urinary incontinence in patients treated by cystostomy were significantly higher than rupture anastomosis on the stage I and early realignment (P < 0.05); while incidence in patients treated by catheterization was significantly lower than other groups (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>For patients with partial rupture of posterior urethral, catheterization and rupture anastomosis on the stage I are preferred methods; while patients with complete rupture of posterior urethra, early realignment is a preferred method with advantages of simple operation and less complications.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the feasibility and clinical effects of titanium elastic nails (TEN) for adolescent clavicular fracture.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From October 2008 to November 2009, 17 adolescent patients with clavicular fracture were treated with internal fixation, including 11 males and 5 females who ranged in age from 12 to 18 years (mean 15.3 years). The mean time from injury to surgery was 3.5 days (2-7 days). Constant function score before surgery and that 3 months after surgery and shoulder ROM before surgery and that 2 months after surgery were compared. Fracture reduction and healing were followed up by X-rays to analyze internal fixation with the TEN technique.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All patients were followed up for a mean of 6.5 months (range 3-8 months), during which no infection, TEN fracture or skin bursting was observed. The Constant score rose from preoperative (45.3 +/- 6.1) to (85.6 +/- 4.3) at 3-month follow up (t = 22.164, P < 0.01),and the shoulder activity degree at 2-week follow up was improved obviosly from preoperative (P < 0.01). X-ray at 12-16 weeks after surgery showed good bone healing and recovery of shoulder function.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Internal fixation with TEN in the treatment of adolescent clavicular fracture is safe, minimally invasive,reliable and cosmetic. This technique provides a liable ption for the treatment of adolescent clavicular fractire</p>
