RESUMO
Objective:To assess the clinical efficacy and infection control outcomes of two-stage revision in managing periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) following primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) utilizing either a low or high constrained prosthesis.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 40 patients who underwent revision TKA in the Sixth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University from February 2019 to February 2022. According to the type of prosthesis selected in primary TKA, they were divided into low constrained prosthesis group and high constrained prosthesis group. There were 28 patients (28 knees) in the low constrained group, including 12 males and 16 females, aged 69.0(63.0, 74.0) years, with a body mass index of 25.18±0.55 kg/m 2. And there were 12 patients (12 knees) in the high-constrained group, including 5 males and 7 females, aged 66.5(65.0, 71.5) years, with a body mass index of 23.94±0.51 kg/m 2. All patients underwent two-stage revision surgery, with RHK used in 1 case and LCCK in 27 cases in the low-constrained prosthesis group. In the high-constrained prosthesis group, 3 patients were treated with RHK, 1 patient with PFC Sigma MBT, and 8 patients with LCCK. The preoperative and postoperative range of motion (ROM), Knee Society score (KSS), and postoperative infection control rate were compared between the two groups. Results:All patients were followed up. The follow-up time was 22.79±8.02 months in the low-constrained prosthesis group and 23.92±7.04 months in the high-constrained prosthesis group, with no significant difference between the two groups ( t=0.426, P=0.680). At the last follow-up, the KSS and ROM in the low-constrained prosthesis group were 77.96±9.74 and 93.48°±7.45°, respectively, significantly higher than 38.93±8.01 and 68.89°±9.44° before the operation ( P<0.05). The KSS score and ROM in the high-constrained prosthesis group were 67.83±8.31 and 80.08°±5.89° at the last follow-up, which were also significantly higher than those before operation (34.25±6.31 and 66.50°±10.48°, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in KSS and ROM between the two groups before operation ( P>0.05), but the KSS score and ROM in the low-constrained prosthesis group were significantly higher than those in the high-constrained prosthesis group at the last follow-up ( P<0.05). Bacterial culture results revealed that the primary infectious agents were coagulase-negative Staphylococcus and Staphylococcus aureus, with an overall infection control rate of 80% (32/40). The infection control rate was 89% (25/28) in the low-constrained prosthesis group and 58% (7/12) in the high-constrained prosthesis group, but the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (χ 2=3.283, P=0.070). Conclusion:Two-stage revision effectively controls PJI, and the clinical outcomes of two-stage revision for PJI after primary TKA with a high-constrained prosthesis are inferior to those with a low-constrained prosthesis. Further exploration is needed to enhance efficacy.
RESUMO
Objective:To implement an intervention with community-dwelling middle-aged and elderly people through a new science promotion approach, and to evaluate changes in the level of bone health awareness.Methods:From April 2017 to June 2017, 200 community-dwelling middle-aged and elderly people aged 50 years and over were randomly included.They were divided into the intervention group receiving a new science promotion intervention(n=100, with 50 males and 50 females)and the control group(n=100, with 50 males and 50 females). Baseline and follow-up assessments of bone health awareness were performed before and after the one-year intervention.A questionnaire survey on preferences for different types of science promotion articles in WeChat accounts was conducted.Differences in scores for intervention effects before and after intervention were compared between the two groups.Potential influencing factors for the scale score were examined by a multi-factor analysis.Results:After one year of intervention, scores for intervention effects were higher in the intervention group than in the control group( P<0.001). In the intervention group, scores were higher after intervention than before intervention( P<0.001). In the control group, scores after follow-up were slightly higher than those at baseline(29.4±11.4 vs.27.9±10.1, P<0.001). The increase in scores before and after intervention was greater in the intervention group than in the control group( P<0.001). Baseline score, group designation, history of drinking and diabetes impacted the scores in middle-aged and elderly women, while other factors did not.Most middle-aged and older people preferred texts illustrated with pictures, and older people were more receptive to videos. Conclusions:The new science promotion method is beneficial to bone health management, can improve bone health awareness in middle-aged and elderly people.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the relationship between pelvic asymmetry and Crowe classification of unilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip in adults. Methods According to the inclusion criteria, 100 cases of unilateral DDH in adults were collected, including 78 females and 22 males, with an average age of 56.3 years old (range, 21-79 years). In terms of Crowe classification, there were 30 cases of Crowe typeⅠ, 24 cases of Crowe typeⅡ, 23 cases of Crowe typeⅢ, and 23 cases of CroweⅣ. The normal?side and affected?side pelvic vertical height (the distance from the highest point of the ischial tuberosity to the iliac crest peak) were measured via the radiogram of anteroposterior pelvis. Furthermore, we compared the affected?side pelvic vertical height with the normal?side and analyzed the relationship between Crowe classification and the difference in pelvic verti?cal height. Results The average pelvic vertical height was 23.38±1.46 cm in the normal?side and 22.41±1.38 cm in the affected?side. The average D?value of pelvic vertical height between two sides is 0.98 ± 0.76 cm. From Crowe typeⅠto Ⅳ, the average heights of the normal?side were 22.89±1.09 cm, 23.23±2.07 cm, 23.75±1.16 cm, 23.79±1.22 cm, while those of the affected?side were 22.70 ± 0.98 cm, 22.41 ± 1.98 cm, 22.47 ± 1.12 cm and 21.92 ± 1.32 cm. The average D?values in each group were 0.19 ± 0.37 cm, 0.82±0.43 cm, 1.28±0.32 cm, 1.87±0.59 cm. The differences between the normal?side and the affected?side in each type were statistically significant. The average D?value increased significantly with Crowe type increased, and there was a positive correla?tion between the D?value of bilateral pelvic vertical height and the degree of hip dislocation. Conclusion The pelvic asymmetry does exist in adult patients with unilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip. Moreover, the asymmetry has positive correlation with the degree of hip dislocation.
