Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of wrist arthroscopic transosseous footprint repair technique for treating triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) injury.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 56 patients with TFCC injury admitted to Shenzhen Second People′s Hospital from July 2017 to September 2020, including 38 males and 18 females, aged 17-45 years [(33.5±3.6)years]. All patients had unilateral injury. Physical examination showed instability of the distal radioulnar joint, and MRI and arthroscopy confirmed deep ligament injury of TFCC. All patients underwent repair of deep insertion of the TFCC by using wrist arthroscopic transosseous footprint. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, wound healing and postoperative complications were recorded. The flexion and extension range of motion of the wrist, radial and ulnal deviation of the wrist, rotation range of motion of the forearm, patient related wrist evaluation (PRWE) score, modified Mayo wrist score, visual analogue scale (VAS), and percentage of grip strength between the affected side and unaffected side were compared preoperatively, at 3 months postoperatively and at 1 year postoperatively.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-18 months [(13.4±5.2)months]. The operation time was (61.3±8.9)minutes, with the intraoperative blood loss of (2.4±1.2)ml. All wounds were healed by first intension. There was no wound infection or ulnar nerve irritation symptom after operation. Four patients experienced clicking on the ulnar side of the wrist in a short period of time post-operation, with spontaneous disappearance of the symptom. At 3 months postoperatively, the radial and ulnar deviation of the wrist was decreased from (52.5±5.9)° preoperatively to (42.6±5.9)°, and rotation range of motion of the forearm was decreased from (94.9±8.4)°preoperatively to (84.6±5.9)° (all P<0.01). The flexion and extension range of motion of the wrist was (93.1±17.4)° preoperatively, with insignificant difference compared with (89.4±5.8)° at 3 months postoperatively ( P>0.05). At 1 year postoperatively, the flexion and extension range of motion of the wrist, radial and ulnar deviation range of motion of the wrist, and rotation range of motion of the forearm were significantly increased to (101.3±13.6)°, (52.4±6.6)°, and (116.4±16.4)° when compared with those at 3 months postoperatively (all P<0.01). At 3 months postoperatively, the PRWE score was increased to (17.1±3.8)points from (10.6±3.2)points preoperatively ( P<0.01), modified Mayo wrist score was decreased to (70.3±6.7) points from (78.1±12.7)points preoperatively ( P<0.01), VAS was decreased to (4.4±1.7)points from (6.2±1.5)points preoperatively ( P>0.05), and percentage of grip strength between the affected side and unaffected side was decreased to (55.7±8.7)% from (74.4±15.2)% preoperatively ( P<0.01). At 1 year postoperatively, the PRWE score was increased to (2.0±0.9)points, modified Mayo wrist score was increased to (94.8±3.3)points, VAS was decreased to (2.1±1.1)points, and percentage of grip strength between the affected side and unaffected side was increased to (93.2±8.7)% when compared with those at 3 months postoperatively (all P<0.01). Conclusion:Wrist arthroscopic transosseous footprint repair technique can effectively treat deep ligament injury of TFCC, with advantages of significantly improving postoperative joint range of motion and functional score, relieving the pain on the ulnar side of the wrist and enhancing grip strength.
Résumé
Lateral ankle avulsion fracture is a common sports injury that can lead to chronic lateral ankle instability and substantial deterioration of the joint function. Currently, problems such as misdiagnosis, inappropriate treatment, disparate outcomes and lack of standardization are usually met in the diagnosis and treatment of lateral ankle avulsion fracture. The Foot and Ankle Committee of Chinese Association of Sports Medicine Physicians thus organized a working group of experts in the field of sports medicine and ankle surgery from China to develop "An evidence-based clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of lateral ankle avulsion fractures (2022 version)" in accordance with the principle of evidence-based medicine and scientificity and practicability. The guideline covered the topics of imaging diagnosis, indications and methods of non-operative and operative treatment as well as postoperative rehabilitation, in order to provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of lateral ankle avulsion fracture.
Résumé
Objective:To establish a clinical diagnostic scoring model for preoperative predicting hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) microvascular invasion (MVI) based on gadolinium-ethoxybenzyl-diethylenetriamine pentacetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA) enhanced MRI, and verify its effectiveness.Methods:From January 2014 to December 2020, a total of 251 cases with pathologically confirmed HCC from Tianjin First Central Hospital and Jilin University First Hospital were retrospectively collected to serve as the training set, while 57 HCC patients from Tianjin Medical University Cancer Hospital were recruited as an independent external validation set. The HCC patients were divided into MVI positive and MVI negative groups according to the pathological results. The tumor maximum diameters and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values were measured. On the Gd-EOB-DTPA MRI images, tumor morphology, peritumoral enhancement, peritumoral low intensity (PTLI), capsule, intratumoral artery, intratumoral fat, intratumoral hemorrhage, and intratumoral necrosis were observed. Univariate analysis was performed using the χ 2 test or the independent sample t-test. The independent risk factors associated with MVI were obtained in the training set using a multivariate logistic analysis. Points were assigned to each factor according to the weight value to establish a preoperative score model for predicting MVI. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to determine the score threshold and to verify the efficacy of this scoring model in predicting MVI in the independent external validation set. Results:The training set obtained 98 patients in the MVI positive group and 153 patients in the MVI negative group, while the external validation set obtained 16 patients in the MVI positive group and 41 patients in the MVI negative group. According to logistic analysis, tumor maximum diameter>3.66 cm (OR 3.654, 95%CI 1.902-7.018), hepatobiliary PTLI (OR 9.235, 95%CI 4.833-16.896) and incomplete capsule (OR 6.266, 95%CI 1.993-9.345) were independent risk factors for MVI in HCC, which were assigned scores of 3, 4 and 2, respectively. The total score ranged from 0 to 9. In the external validation set, ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of the scoring model was 0.918 (95%CI 0.815-0.974, P=0.001). When the score>4 was used as the threshold, the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of the model in predicting MVI were 84.2%, 81.3%, and 85.4%, respectively. Conclusions:A scoring model based on Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI provided a convenient and reliable way to predict MVI preoperatively.

Objective:To study the predictive value of combining alpha-feto protein (AFP) with contrast-enhanced MRI imaging features in predicting incidence of microvascular invasion (MVI) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods:The data of 206 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma treated at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from January 2017 to April 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 179 males and 27 females, with an average age of 58.7 years. The roles of preoperative MRI imaging features and clinical data on predicting the incidence of MVI in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma were evaluated by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Multivariable regression analysis was then used to plot a nomogram.Results:There were 86 patients (41.7%) with MVI positivity and 120 patients (58.3%) with MVI negativity. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that AFP >400 μg/L ( OR=3.318, 95% CI: 1.243-8.855, P=0.017), two-trait predictor of venous invasion (TTPVI) ( OR=13.111, 95% CI: 6.797-28.119, P<0.001), diffusion weighted imaging/T 2 weighted imaging (DWI/T 2WI) mismatch ( OR=17.233, 95% CI: 4.731-44.490, P<0.001), and rim enhancement( OR=5.665, 95% CI: 2.579-18.152, P=0.013) predicted increased risks of MVI in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. The constructed nomogram directly predicted the risk of MVI in these patients. Conclusions:AFP>400 μg/L, TTPVI, DWI/T 2WI mismatch and rim enhancement were independent risk factors in predicting MVI in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. This predictive model of MVI which was based on multivariate logistic regression analysis was helpful to clinicians in making individualized treatment plans for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective: To assess the value of preoperative clinical data and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging features in predicting early recurrence (recurrence in two years) after surgical resection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods: This retrospective study included 244 patients with HCC who underwent a surgical resection between January 2015 and January 2018 at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital. The role of preoperative clinical data and MR imaging features on early recurrence after surgical tumor resection were evaluated using univariate and multivariate analyses. All patients were followed up regularly after discharge. The endpoint was considered to be intrahepatic recurrence within 2 years. Results: In the univariate analyses, the maximum diameter of the tumor, tumor capsule, peritumoral parenchyma enhancement, rim enhancement, two-trait predictor of venous invasion (TTPVI), tumor necrosis, satellite nodules, dynamic enhancement pattern, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) /T2WI mismatch and other MR imaging features, as well as alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), TNM stage, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), glutamatergic aminotransferase (AST), direct bilirubin (DBIL), γ-glutamyl transferase (γ-GT) and other clinical data were correlated with the early recurrence of HCC. In the multivariate Cox regression analysis, the tumor capsule (HR=0.372, P400 μg/L (HR=2.234, P400 μg/L were found to be independent factors of the early postoperative recurrence of HCC. This research has established a predictive model for the early recurrence of HCC after surgical resection using a non-invasive method, which can help clinicians to develop individualized treatment protocols and improve patient outcomes.

The duration from injury to treatment was averaged 11.70±1.90 months (5-18 months). All of the cases sustained waist and proximal end fractures. X-ray and CT scan showed sclerosis and bone resorption without any callus at the fracture sites. However, there were no serious deformities and wrist arthritis. The patients suffered pain and weakness at the radial side of the wrist. The type of the fractures were Slade-Geissler's III-VI, including grade III 4 cases, grade IV 13 cases, grade V 7 cases and grade VI 1 case. The patients were treated with arthroscopic debridement of the sclerotic bone, autologous bone grafting, percutaneous screw (9 cases) or K-wires fixation (16 cases) and immobilization by plaster for 3 weeks after operation, followed by functional rehabilitation training. Bone union was assessed by serial plain radiographs and CT scan regularly. The functional effects were evaluated by comparing the modified Mayo wrist score with the visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain, range of motion (ROM) and the grip strength, which were measured before operation and at 18 months after operation.@*Results@#All cases were followed up. Bone union was achieved in all of 25 nonunion. The average radiological union duration was 10.24±2.10 weeks (6-20 weeks). The average VAS score decreased from 6.75±1.10 preoperatively to 1.33±0.21. The mean ROM of wrist was improved to 168.48°±12.41° (92.90% of that of the normal side), compared to that of 135.24°±17.47° preoperatively (79.80% of that of the normal side). The mean grip strength showed improvement from an average of 35.68±3.81 kg (80.46% of that of normal side) preoperatively to 48.75±4.42 kg (90.65% of that of normal side). The average modified Mayo wrist score improved from 61.52±6.32 preoperatively to 85.88±8.37.@*Conclusion@#Arthroscopic autologous bone grafting with percutaneous cannulated screw and K-wires fixation is an effective and minimally invasive treatment for scaphoid nonunion, which could protect the blood supply of the fracture sites, decrease the surgical complications, promote bone healing and lead to a faster recovery.

BACKGROUND:Human hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha can regulate the expression of osteogenic and angiogenic genes, and promote osteogenic activity. OBJECTIVE:To observe the expression of osteogenic genes in rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells carrying human hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha slow virus infection. METHODS:Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha was obtained from Hela cells using RT-PCR. Lentivirus expression vector plasmid carrying hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (Lenti-HIF-1α-eGFP) was constructed. 293Ta cells with LentiPac HIV mixed packaging plasmid was packaged, and then lentivirus was obtained. Rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were isolated and cultured using direct whole bone marrow adherent method. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were identified using flow cytometry. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were infected with slow virus for 1, 4, 7 and 14 days. Bone morphogenetic protein-2, osteocalcin, osteopontin and alkaline phosphatase expression levels were detected in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells using real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were effectively infected with Lenti-HIF-1α-eGFP. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR results revealed that bone morphogenetic protein-2, osteocalcin, osteopontin and alkaline phosphatase began to obviously overexpress from 4 days after infection with Lenti-HIF-1α-eGFP until 14 days. Results suggested that hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha could elevate the osteogenic activity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
